Appearance[]
Human[]
Kafuria's human form is never revealed, since she stays in her Magical Girl form at all times.
Magical Girl[]

Kafuria
As a Magical Girl, Kafuria has short, shiny black hair that flicks up at the end, which also has two long strands of hair that are connected to a flower, which looks similar to a daffodil, on her outfit, and and at the end has something similar to pale pink Muscari flowers attached to each strand.
She wears a short, black veil that has rose designs at the end, a flower design in the center of her veil that resembles a red spider lily and has white peonies at the top.
It’s unknown what Kafuria’s face looks like, but she has fair-toned skin.
She wears a black dress that seems to be a modified version of a kimono, with a white shoulder pad and a metallic pink strap twisting from behind her back and under her chest, she has multiple purple flowers that are very similar to daffodils on her dress and the bottom of the dress has black lace, which goes all the way to her feet and a black silk chokers with a bow on the back.
She has large, black feathery wings on her back.
Personality[]
She believes her magic is quite useless, but she has a caring heart and would do her best to prevent deaths.
She gets along quite easily with other freelancers.
Magic[]
Knows who will be the soonest to die.
She is able to see who dies the earliest among all the people (including Magical Girls and mages) in her view, but she won't know the cause and time of death.
She will see a floating skull mark, which has no entity and can't be seen by others, on the head of that person. Multiple skull marks mean that multiple people will die at the same time. However, the future of people's death can be altered. The causation of it can be intervened by others and thus change the order of death.

Etymology[]
Real Name[]
- The name Kokoro means "heart, mind, soul" (心).
- Kokoro's surname Kimura means "tree, wood" (木) (ki) and "town, village" (村) (mura).
Trivia[]
- In Fanbook 1, Kafuria has the following stats:
Physical Ability: 3/5
Communication Skill: 3/5
Magic Rarity: 3/5
Magic Experience: 4/5
Mental Strength: 3/5
Thoughtful: 4/5 - Part of Kafuria's name, "Kafu" (カフ), has the same sound of Japanese word 寡婦 (kafu), which means "widow". A typical widow always has a black veil and dress, which are also part of Kafuria's outfit.
- In the calendar art, Kafuria is holding a red spider lily, which is associated with "death" in Japanese culture. This association is related to Kafuria's power.
- Kafuria is one of Asari Endō's favorite Magical Girls, along with Nemurin.
- When asked about Kafuria, Endō responded: “Design-wise, I really like her, however, illustrations only reach you after the story has already been completed…”
- In the e-book exclusive afterword of JOKERS, Asari Endō has stated that while JOKERS did not face as many rejections and revisions as other books in the series, a short story about Filru, Uttakatta, and Kafuria was rejected and was never published. The story featured what all three Magical Girls were doing together before they infiltrated the underground laboratory.
