About

Kisshu's race originally lived on Earth, but it became uninhabitable so they moved to another planet. This planet was even worse; the aliens were forced to live underground for thousands of years. They finally came back to Earth, only to find that it had been taken over by humans.

Kisshu came to Tokyo to operate his plan of taking over Earth to save his dying race. The only thing that stands in his way are the five Mew Mews. Kisshu first meets Ichigo in a park. Attracted by her kitten-like cuteness, he leaped off the roof of a building and surprised her with a kiss on the lips (and it hasn't been the last). At first, Kisshu sees her as a little toy he could hug and kiss but later deeply fell in love with her. Despite her constant rejections, the alien enemy has tried various times to make her "his", including trying to kill her boyfriend, Masaya Aoyama (Mark in Mew Mew Power). Near the end of the anime, Kisshu threatens to murder Ichigo if she doesn't become his love.

Later, when Masaya turns out to be Deep Blue, Kisshu assists Ichigo in the fight against him. However, Deep Blue stabs him, and Kisshu dies (leaving Ichigo heart broken for a short time), but Ichigo manages to defeat Deep Blue. Kisshu is revived at the end of the battle.

When the three aliens are about to go back home, Kisshu says he has gotten over Ichigo, although Tart doesn't believe him. In Tokyo Mew Mew à la Mode, Kisshu makes a small appearance when he sneezes on his planet after Mint mentions him on Earth (in Japan, it is believed that if you sneeze, it means someone is talking about you).

In the manga, he confesses his love to Ichigo, asking "What can I do to make you love me?" But in the end, he realizes that Ichigo loves Masaya, and finally accepts it. He ends up returning to his planet with Pie and Tart.




Kisshu cares a lot about the people on the planet, but he starts to love Ichigo more toward the end of the manga. Many people believe he's obsessive, but this is wrong, especially since he gives her up in the manga. Overall, he is quite loving and caring, but sometimes quite forceful. In the anime however, he is VERY obsessive. Almost to the point where it's scary, in fact.
