Azami

“	I was a fool... I refused to acknowledge the Natural Order, and what's worse, even tried to involve you two... Somewhere inside, I knew. I knew everything would go wrong because I was here. If I were gone, you two could be happy in this world. If only I hadn't wished for my own happiness. I... just wanted to dream for a little while. To dream a fantasy that I could live with my family. You were dear to me. More precious than anything...	„
	~ Azami, to Marry

Summary

Azami is a mythical character found within the Kagerou Project, and its anime adaptation, Mekakucity Actors. She is the source of the appearance of eye abilities for those who experience near-death moments, existing within a parallel dimension she had created to escape the real world with her husband and daughter and live forever. However, after an attack on her home and the capture of her husband, she retreated into the dimension, known as Heat Haze, where she would be imprisoned by a rebellious and sentient snake under her control.

She eventually gives her Combining Eyes and control over Heat Haze to her grandaughter, Marry, to allow her to escape after she was trapped in Heat Haze by Azami to save her from death.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

Awakening Eyes Concealing Eyes Snatching Eyes Staring Eyes 1/4 Concealing Eyes: Ability given to Kido. This ability can divert perception away from objects and even people within two meters of herself and/or her surroundings, rendering them invisible. When using her ability at full strength, she can apply it to objects outside of a two meter radius, especially when the objects are interconnected, like a building. Stealing Eyes: Ability given to Seto. This ability allows her to read information from the target's mind. She can also speak to animals using this eye ability. Deceiving Eyes: Ability given to Kano. This ability can change what people around her see and show them something different, but she can only use it on himself, meaning she cannot change the appearances of others. Locking Eyes: Unique ability to Azami. This ability allows her to turn people into stone. Shion inherited this power from her. Combining Eyes: Ability unique to Azami and Marry. The ability to combine the powers of the other snakes, allowing her to control the Heat Haze and cause a number of reality-altering effects. Allows her to leave and re-enter the Heat Haze and real world, as well as force others into in and out of them, you can even create a world similar to Kagerou Daze.

Unlike Hibiya, she has perfect control of this, and can perceive events worldwide. Awakening Eyes: Azami's ability gives her the power to remake her body at will, surrounding her with a mass of black snakes. She can use this ability to heal from several fatal gunshots and presumably other otherwise lethal wounds. Clearing Eyes: Ability given to Kenjirou. It allows her interfere with and stop the use of other eye abilities completely. The Clearing Eyes snake can also manipulate dreams and possess other eye users, however it is unknown if Azami is also capable of this, considering the snake's desire to conspire against her and humanity.
