The true seventh Rozen Maiden doll. Both her hair and her ornately ruffled dress are white, as indicated by Shinku's description of her in volume 6 of the manga, and by the remodeled version of the original manga. However, she has been shown with a pale pink dress (anime), pale pink hair (Rozen Maiden AliBat, a fan-created fighting game), or both (the cover of volume 6 of the manga). Kirakishou's right eye is missing. In the anime, a layer of tissue covers the right eye socket and a single white rose grows from it, but in the manga, she simply has a rose growing out of the empty eye socket, as described by Shinku: "Her left eye can see everything, but reflects nothing, while her right eye is an empty hole, with a white rose growing out of it." In the anime, Kirakishou's shoulders are not ball-jointed as the other dolls' are, presumably because she is an entity that only exists in the N-Field.
Kirakishou's first appearance in the manga is in volume 6, but is not properly introduced until volume 7. In the anime, however, she has not been formally introduced. Her only anime appearance was towards the end of the finale of Rozen Maiden Träumend; she is shown for only a few seconds.
In the manga, Kirakishou claims that the seventh doll lacked a physical body and could only exist in the N-Field. Because of this, she destroys and consumes Hinaichigo so that she can use the sixth doll's body to materialize outside of the N-Field. Even though Kirakishou could not initially exist in the real world, she could still affect real world events; she gives a rose ring to Odille Fosset, the granddaughter of Corinne Fosset, Hinaichigo's former mistress.
Kirakishou offers her Rosa Mystica to Suigintou in volume 7, in order to trick her "big sister" and take Megu. Suigintou, however, refuses to accept the Rosa Mystica, saying that she would take it later on her own terms. During her first encounter with Shinku, in volume 6, Kirakishou parrots whatever Shinku says, much like Barasuishou does in the anime.
Because Kirakishou's appearance in the anime was merely a headshot, her abilities remain unknown. In the manga, she controls white rose vines, which she can manipulate into a spiderweb-like construct on which she crawls like an actual spider would. She used her vines to destroy Hinaichigo and to restrain Shinku and Suigintou during each's first encounter with her. Kirakishou also has the ability to trap people's consciousness in crystals within the N-Field and Sea of Unconsciousness, as evidenced by Odille's status as shown in both the N-Field and the real world.
Later in the manga, Kirakishou has tricked the Jun in another world into helping her materialize herself by sending him parts of Souseiseki's body. And, using Jun's power, she shields herself from Shinku and Suigintou's attacks to allow herself time to make Souseiseki's body fully hers. She has made it clear that she is jealous of the other sisters enjoying material bodies while she herself is no more than a fleeting thought. She wishes to have Shinku's nobility, Hinaichigo's innocence, Kanaria's charm, Suiseiseki's passion, and Souseiseki's earnestness. Before sending out another set of rose vines, she uttered the words, "Hold me more."
In the latest chapter, when Jun is forced to choose the doll whom he'll form a contract, Kirakishou restrained him from choosing Shinku. She also promised him the power to change the past should he form a contract with her instead. However, as Jun has kissed Souseiseki's ring, it may seem that Kirakishou is once again losing her material body.
