Mari Hanashiro0 fan favoritesExternal profileShe was born with heart failure and usually stays in hospital. Because of her wish for "not want to die", She was transformed by Sanpikime - one of the Original Three - to a mushitauki. Her bug is a silver Morpho butterfly that can fuse on objects and releasing butterfly wing powder that can cause devastating damage or used as a defensive shield to blow away attacks. This also gives her super strength despite of her handicaps. Her bug also consumes dreams from the others instead of her's. At times she would go out and search for the "Undead Mishitsuki" to find out the way not to die, she also attacks various Mushitsuki during the process so this gives her the alternative name "Hunter". She is also appointed rank 1 by SEPB because she had killed many bugs owned by high rank members of the SEPB. Sanpikime praised her as "the strongest Mushitsuki ever existed." At the beginning of the series, she was already passed away. But her bug was still alive and was transferred to Arisu, her sole friend. She is voiced by Ami Koshimizu in the Drama CD adaptation.
