The Primordial Life Fiber, also known as the Original Life Fiber, is the overarching antagonist of the 2013 anime series Kill la Kill. It is an ancient, extraterrestrial organism that fell to Earth millions of years ago. This sentient being is the ancestor of all Life Fibers—an extraterrestrial, parasitic species that feeds on life. The Life Fibers latch onto their hosts, amplifying their physical capabilities and giving humankind superhuman powers. Over time, the Life Fibres have guided the course of human evolution, weaving themselves into the very fabric of humanity, particularly in the form of clothing.
The Primordial Life Fiber is the oldest and most powerful of its kind. Its ultimate goal, therefore, is to take in all life on Earth by covering it with Life Fibers. In doing so, it manipulates the creation of clothing infused with Life Fibers, which slowly assimilates the wearer until he or she becomes completely absorbed.
Appearance[]
The Primordial Life Fiber is a colossal being with a large gourd shape and thousands of Life Fiber threads covering it like a cocoon. It glows a yellow to red color. In Kill la Kill: IF, the Primordial Life Fiber can assume an infant-like marionette form to defend itself from attacks.
Personality[]
The Primordial Life Fiber is a highly intelligent, malevolent being, though much of its personality comes more from its actions and the behavior of the Life Fibers rather than direct characterization. Its defining features are a hunger for domination and survival through the propagation of its species at all costs, an action brought about by basic instinct.
It has a cold, calculating nature in that it manipulated human civilization for millennia to suit its goals. The Primordial Life Fiber does not have any form of empathy or moral concerns per se towards humans; rather, it sees them merely as a means towards an end. So great is its influence over the Life Fibers that it extends even towards human antagonists of the series—a case in point being Ragyo Kiryuin, who willfully became a servant to the Life Fibers, embodying their ambition and ruthlessness.
Biography[]
Several millennia ago, the Primordial Life Fiber first landed onto Earth from space. It then unleashed Life Fibers into the world, feeding on their organic hosts and covering them. However from time to time, they instead started to focus on modern humans due to their advanced development of the cerebellum, but soon left humanity with an occurring instinct to cover themselves with clothing before becoming dormant. Prior to the start of the series, Ragyō Kiryūin, descended from a line of humans that safeguard the Primordial Life Fiber, became obsessed with fulfilling its goal to cover the Earth and destroy it as part of the Life Fibers' life cycle. After her attempted to create hybrids with her own children, Ragyo used the Primordial Life Fiber to incubate Nui Harime before infusing herself with Life Fibers.
The Primordial Life Fiber mainly remained in the Life Fiber Palace underneath the Kiryuin mansion, producing COVERS that would "seal humanity's fate" after the Life Fibers coated the planet with them. Ragyo activates the Primordial Life Fiber to reach Honnouji Academy to commence her plans to activate all Life Fibers worldwide, seemingly destroyed by Ryuko Matoi when she cuts through the core in half with help from the S.S. Naked Sun. But the Primordial Life Fiber survived and entered Honnouji Academy to converge on the transmitter before it is destroyed. But Ragyo has Nui sacrifice herself to merge with the Primordial Life Fiber so Ragyo can have Shinra-Kotetsu assimilate it to resume the plan, only for Ryuko to end her mother's plan by having Senketsu asborb Shinra-Kotetsu with him and the Primordial Life Fiber destroyed as a result.
Kill la Kill: IF[]
In an alternate timeline caused by Junketsu influencing Satsuki's dreams after she first worn it, events play differently from the main series timeline. Ragyo hints through the storyline that the Primordial Life Fiber can manipulate time and space, transporting the entire Life Fiber Palace from the Kiryuin mansion to the basement level of Honnouji Academy during the Culture and Sports Festival battle. After Ragyo and Nui are defeated, the Primordial Life Fiber responds to Satsuki's attack by absorbing the pair along with numerous Covers to assume a form to defeat itself in as Satsuki battles it in her Junketsu Junketsu Shinzui form. But Satsuki's desire to defeat the Primordial Life Fiber while it taps into Life Fibers from other realities and timelines causes a paradox that threatens the dream reality before Ryuko destroys Junketsu at the cost of Senketsu, giving Satsuki her Scissors Blade to destroy the Primordial Life Fiber so the dream can end.
