Kakyo Kuzuki (玖月 牙暁, Kuzuki Kakyō) is one of the supporting characters of the X series.
He is a dream seer in a permanent coma, appearing as a tall man with a sad expression.
His ability to see the future in dreams was discovered at an early age, and as a result he was kept a prisoner by an unknown political group.
Appearance[]
He has golden eyes, long, pale hair and almost always dressed in white.
Personality[]
In the anime, Kakyo is polite and soft-spoken, but passive, and shows very little reaction to the events unfolding around him. Despite being a Dragon of Earth, he seems to have little interest in the outcome of the Final Battle, or anything else for that matter.
His few moments of deep emotion come when he converses with Kotori Monou, Hokuto Sumeragi, or Kamui Shiro in their dreams, where he exhibits signs of a deep, suicidal depression, frequently bemoaning that his power as a dreamseer allows him to see the future, but not change it. His one moment of genuine happiness comes at the end of the anime, when Hokuto leads him "outside" and he is finally allowed to die.

Kakyo and Hokuto
Having never seen the outside world, he drew Hokuto Sumeragi into his dreams and fell in love with her after she showed him the sea through her own imagination. However, he foresaw that she would go to her death at the hands of the Seishiro Sakurazuka (as seen in the last volume of Tokyo Babylon), and broke out of his room in an effort to stop her; shot by one of his guards with a sniper rifle, he failed to reach her in time and sank into the coma in which he spends the duration of the X story. He came to believe that the future was immutable, and began to wish for his death although unable to kill himself being in a physical coma.
Kakyo lying in a comatose state.
He meets and befriends the fledgling dreamseer Kotori Monou within the dreamscape, but realizes that she, too, will soon die at the hands of her older brother Fuma Monou. To grant Kotori's last wish that Kamui Shiro should be spared, Kakyo possesses her corpse during its "death dream" and clings to the Sacred Sword, preventing Fuma from removing it from Kotori's body and using it to kill Kamui. However, in doing so Kakyo alerts Fuma to his presence, and the Dragon of Earth hunts down the dreamseer and convinces him that he will grant his wish to die in peace, provided Kakyo aids him as one of the Seven Angels. They grow intimate over times, as Fuma continually consoles Kakyo during his still-existent fits of grief over Hokuto's death.
Kakyou finding Hinoto
Kakyo is coerced into manipulating Princess Hinoto's own future-seeing dreams, but finally turns against Fuma after encouragement from Hokuto and Kotori that the future is not, after all, unchanging. He enables Hokuto to enter her brother Subaru Sumeragi's dreams and talk him into helping Kamui during the crucial moments of the final battle. At the end of the series he dies peacefully, and his spirit is finally able to join his beloved Hokuto and "go outside".
