Chachakaka

""Chacha's not dumb enough to risk her life over a job, meow!""

Chachakaka (チャチャカカ) is an assassin and a member of the Kaka Clan. She was hired by Houichirou Hazuki to infiltrate the Military Academy and assassinate Mai Natsume.

Chacha first appeared as a minor antagonist in BlazBlue: Remix Heart before becoming a supporting protagonist in later chapters. She was revealed as a playable character for BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War on the 23rd of June, 2021.

Appearance
A young, tanned Kaka with crimson eyes and a toothy smile hidden in the shade of her bright pink hoodie. Chacha has blonde hair with brown tips and her tail has the coloration of a leopards, with a small pink bow tied near the end. Her own Kaka jacket has two golden rings on the left ear and on the peak hangs a small silver ornament with a paw pattern on the center. The jacket has long, thick sleeves that obscure her hands and hidden within the cuffs are chains with sharp blades attached - just above the cuffs are white circles and black lines run horizontally across the sleeves. Chacha's jacket is worn on top of a standard Military Academy uniform with a red cravat. The jacket stops short of her hips, and she wears a short black skirt, white legwarmers and pink shoes.

In BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War, Chacha no longer wears part of the Military Academy uniform, instead having a different jacket that is closer to the ones worn by other Kaka. It is fully zipped, showing the end of the jacket having a length similar to a dress. She also no longer wears a bow on the end of her tail.

Personality
Unlike most of her Kaka sisters, Chacha is surprisingly bright and reasonable, showing a level head compared to Shiori Kirihito's more unhinged manner. She does not care particularly for her profession or a job, knowing that her life is worth more than what she does. Like other Kaka, however, she exhibits laziness, labelling certain activities as too much effort. Sometimes, Chacha does not think ahead, sticking a random object in her mouth with little regard for what it could be.

Although not as bright as some of her sisters, like Torakaka, she has some world experience, knowing the taste of alchemy and being able to give reassuring words to Mai when she was going through a difficult time. Although reluctant to show it, she does care for those around her, particularly Shiori. Her relationship with others in her clan, and Jubei, is unknown.

Powers & Techniques
An assassin and a Kaka, Chacha is physically very strong. She can dart at very quick speeds and has two machetes hidden in her sleeves, both attached via chains. She wields these blades with deadly accuracy, throwing them with enough force to easily split hard earth. In close quarters, she uses them much like normal weaponry. Although she is fast, she is not as strong as Mai, and is quick to realize it. Her senses are excellent, being able to quickly recognise a product of alchemy through taste and being able to sense the presence of Relius Clover several miles from where she was.

She excels at gathering information and performing recon. Chacha is also strong enough that she can carry two young women from a cauldron to the top of a Hierarchical City, although she did complain about how much effort it took her. She is frequently seen on tree branches, seemingly having no problem climbing them. She is intelligent enough and adept enough in Ars Magus to be able to pass the Academy exams. Her heritage as a Kaka also means that she is also very resistant to seithr.

BlazBlue Alternative: Dark War Official Profile
''A young girl from the Kaka Clan enrolled in the NOL's Military Academy. She looks like an energetic gal, but she's actually a surprisingly deep thinker and watches others closely. She tends to find things annoying and can generally be found relaxing someplace. But her level of humanity runs deep, and she's a Kaka gal who always repays her debts.''
