Biography[]

Kate[]

A master hitwoman raised and overseen by her handler Varrick, Kate opens the film by assassinating Yakuza officer Kentaro Kijima, briefly hesitating after seeing his daughter Ani.

Years later, while attempting to assassinating his unnamed brother, a Yakuza boss only known as Kijima, she starts feeling dizzy and misses her shot. In a failed attempt to flee the scene, she hijacks a car but violently crashes it. Waking up in a hospital, she learns that she is suffering from radiation poisoning caused by Polonium-204. She breaks out of the hospital after threatening a surgeon into giving her stimulants.

Kate tracks down Stephen, who she had spent the previous night with, and he confesses that he poisoned her after being strong-armed into doing so by Kazuo Sato, who runs a club for the Kijima clan. After finding and killing Sato, a henchman tells her about Ani. Kate kidnaps Ani from a club, demanding to meet with Kijima, and locks Ani in a bathroom before the meeting. Yakuza enforcer Shinzo, working for Kijima advisor Renji, meets with her and after sending his men to kill her, finds Ani. He attempts to execute Ani but he and his men are shot by Kate. Now believing that her uncle wants her dead, Ani tells Kate about Renji's lover Jojima.

Ani and Kate enter Jojima's penthouse and attempt to threaten him, but negotiations sour and Ani kills him. They track Renji down and threaten him for Kijima's location, sparing him. Kate and Ani then leave to meet Kijima, Kate leaving Ani outside the house while she confronts Kijima, who tells her that Renji was the one who had her poisoned and put out the hits on both Kentaro and Ani. Varrick then pulls up outside the house and tells Ani that Kate killed her father, prompting Ani to shoot Kate when she leaves and get into the car with Varrick.

Kijima revives Kate with one of her stimulants and the two storm Renji and Varrick's apartment. Kijima challenges Renji to a katana fight and kills him. Kate finds Varrick holding Ani gunpoint and profusely apologises to Ani for killing her father before shooting Varrick in the gut, killing him and saving Ani. Finally succumbing to the poison, Kate looks up at a neon Maneki-neko projected onto a building and dies in Ani's arms.
