Kanae Hokari

"I absolutely despise you. From the very beginning to the very end. I hate you so much I could vomit."

- Kanae to Keisuke, in the True Ending Route

Kanae Hokari (帆刈 叶) is the true antagonist of the 2011 hentai visual novel Euphoria.

Appearance
Kanae is a petite (153 cm tall) teenage girl with green eyes, short black hair with a ribbon in it, and large breasts.

When she finally reveals her true nature to Keisuke when he wakes up from the virtual reality simulation, she wears a white scientist lab over her school uniform.

Personality
Kanae's true personality is cold, intelligent, and arrogant. She sees Keisuke and Nemu as no more than lab subjects. She is not only very sadistic, which is masked by her innocent, youthful appearance, but she is also quite perverted, such as when she does ties up and does BDSM on Keisuke against his will.

History
During Nemu's POV story, it is heavily implied that Kanae's parents are also scientists. Nemu reveals that Mrs. Hokari (supposedly Kanae's mother) was very cruel to her, sheltering Nemu in a cave away from human contact.

During the virtual reality simulation, Kanae made it so appear that Nemu was the vicious one and that the former was the kind, innocent one, when it fact it was all reversed around.

Three years after Keisuke kills Nemu in the simulation, Kanae is shot by Keisuke (who had undergone training in those three years), and dies from blood loss. Keisuke finally meets Nemu again, who had reverted to her original childlike state.
