Kanna Kirishima (桐島 カンナ, Kirishima Kanna) is a member of the first generation Imperial Combat Revue's Flower Division.
Appearance[]
Kanna is an Okinawan woman with tanned skin, purple eyes, and brown hair. She usually wears a red, sleeveless shirt, slacks, and a tan jacket.
Personality[]
Always hungry and tomboyish, the fairly easygoing Kanna serves as the group's raw muscle. Kanna is the master of a Martial Arts style that allows her to easily kill a bull with her bare hands. She sometimes gets into an argument with Sumire over their differences in attitude.
In The Games[]
Sakura Wars (1996)[]
In episode 5, Kanna reveals her fear of snakes after being bitten by one inside the mansion. She gained her fear after getting bit by one as a child while training in Okinawa with her father.
In her ending, she and Ichiro take a trip down to Okinawa for a training session. After seeing a snake, she leaps into Ichiro's arms...and falls into the water. Thankfully they just laugh it off.

Etymology[]
- The name Kanna is written in katakana (カンナ), which has no special meaning. However, when written in kanji (栞菜 or 環那), it could possibly mean:
- 栞菜 - "bookmark" (栞) (kan) and "vegetables, greens" (菜) (na).
- 環那 - "ring, link" (環) (kan) and "what?" (那) (na).
- Kanna's surname Kirishima means "paulownia" (桐) (kiri) and "island" (島) (shima).
