Kitsurubami

キツルバミ

Lieutenant Kitsurubami is an attractive young woman who serves as second in command on Amarao's staff within the Interstellar Immigration Bureau. She is frequently observed either distributing vital mission data or conducting field investigations alongside Amarao. In the final episode, Amarao makes a pass at her, but she rebuffs him. Indeed, Kitsurubami appears generally repulsed by the prospect of romantic involvement (and likely any physical contact) with Amarao; for instance, she panics when she accidentally drinks from his water container. Nevertheless, she respects him as her superior and follows his orders loyally. She also seems to develop feelings for Canti, despite her initial attempt to shoot him with a 50-caliber sniper rifle.
Kitsurubami is named after a light brown traditional Japanese color, which matches her skin tone. Consequently, her name might be interpreted as "Lieutenant Brown," although the specific shade of Kitsurubami is not the standard "brown." She appears to be the only "normal" (or mature) adult in FLCL.
