HANMYO SPOILER!

The youngest member of the Anten Seven is a gifted grappler pilot whose battle partners are her cats, Kemi and Mata. Hanmyo is introduced as an assassin sent to destroy Gene, but her most memorable scenes happen nowhere near a battlefield. On a station she meets Jim Hawking without either child realizing the other is connected to the enemy. They practice together, talk and form an awkward little friendship that gives Hanmyo a life outside the Kei Pirates for a few hours. Then both return to their ships. During the next battle, Jim's improvements help the Outlaw Star defeat Hanmyo's grappler, killing Kemi and Mata before the vessel is destroyed with Hanmyo aboard. Jim waits afterward for a girl who can never come back, never learning exactly what happened.
