Naoko Kirino

Naoko Kirino (Kirino Naoko, 桐乃尚子) is the main female villain protagonist of the Pumpkin Night manga and the initial namesake holder for the first 19 chapters of the manga before her love interest, Kazuya replaces her after she seemingly dies, though after Mr. Makino kills Naruto and his father before ending in a psyche ward she was interned at, it's revealed Naoko had somehow survived and went on to reclaim the Pumpkin Night mantle. A mental patient falsely placed in a mental hospital to hide the truth of her marring, she would go on to kill more than 20 people and escape from the hospital, seeking revenge against her former schoolmates. Wearing a pumpkin reminiscent to the one she wore during a Halloween shindig to cover her disfiguration, Naoko would begin to stalk her targets and spread horrors and carnage never seen before, all in the name of killing her hated enemies, particularly during the events of Part 1, then Parts 2 and 3 to a certain extent.
