Kiyomi Takada

Kiyomi Takada is the former college classmate and girlfriend of Light Yagami who later becomes Kira's spokeswoman on the NHN television station. Kiyomi is considered to be a very attractive woman with short black hair that is swept to the right and dark-gray eyes. She normally dresses in formal clothing and usually wears bare-shouldered blouses with skirts or long pants. She is sometimes seen wearing a jacket and red lipstick. Kiyomi is an intelligent and graceful young woman. As a student at To-Oh University, she gains a reputation as "Miss To-Oh" ("Miss Todai" in the Japanese version), and "Refined Takada" ("Seiso Takada" in the Japanese version, which means something similar to "plays hard to get"). She is also seen as a very prideful person who loves to be the center of most or all attention. Believing in Kira's ideals, Kiyomi becomes Kira's spokeswoman for News 6 on the station NHN. Her beauty and poise make her very popular with viewers, who treat her as if she were a goddess. Kiyomi, rather proud of herself, believes that Misa Amane is undeserving of Light, which leads to a sort of rivalry between the two women.
