The left side of her pants is rolled up toh her knee. She wears the same attire in Blindfold Code, Imagination Forest, Kisaragi Attention, and Children Record.

Personality
Kido grew up in the same orphanage as Seto and Kano. She is always listening to music through her earphones. Although she is naturally kind and has the most common sense within the group, she is short tempered and has difficulty keeping other members, especially Kano and Seto, in line. She often appears scary at first glance, due to her dark expression and "glare-like gaze", as stated by. In her past, she was relatively normal, but because of her ability, her presence was weak and people often unintentionally ignored her. Over time, she started to become arrogant, developing 'chuunibyou' ("8th grader syndrome").

Plot
After Kano predicted that a new member would be recruited into Mekakushi Dan, Kido finds Momo crying a back alley and brings her to the Mekakushi Dan hideout. As she finds Kano asleep on the couch she rudely wakes him up to make him introduce them to the new member. Momo confuses them for people at work, due to her having a shoot for a drama at a set for a "friend's house", and mentions that she is an idol. Kido realizes that Kano had been lying, and apologizes to Momo for involving her. Realizing that they now had told her about their group though she panics about the fact that they could not let her go.

Eventually they sit down with her and the two explain their eye abilities to her. Being asked for an example by Kano, Kido leaves the room only to reappear on the couch again without anyone noticing how she entered the room again, and Kano explains her eye concealment power to Momo. As she then notices a movement of a door she walks over to a room to get Mary who had been hiding until now. After a few minutes she manages to convince her to introduce herself. [...]

Eye Ability

 * Concealment: Kido's ability is the "Hiding One's Eyes" ability. She can divert perception towards objects and even people within 2 meters of herself and/or her surroundings, rendering them invisible. Conversation while being hidden also won't be heard by outsiders. Physical contact, however, breaks the effect, so it isn't useful in very crowded places; as well, if a person outside the 2 meter bubble is familiar with someone being concealed, her power will not be as strong.

Her ability works more by preventing people from recognizing those being hidden, rather than making them unable to be seen. She has practiced to control her ability perfectly and to not disappear suddenly.

Relationships

 * Kano - Kano and Kido grew up in the same orphanage together, and seem to be close childhood friends.He tends to tease Kido a lot and gets hit or kicked by her for it most of the time, since she doesn't show any tolerance for it. Even though he gets called an "idiot" or "bastard" by Kido a lot, they seem to be very close friends. Kano describes Kido's past self as "cute".
 * Seto - Seto and Kido grew up in the same orphanage and are childhood friends.
 * Mary - At the end of Imagination Forest, she came with Seto to Mary's house to come meet Mary.  Mary soon became a member of the Mekakushi Dan.
