Kin'u

is Miroku and Sango's daughter, Gyokuto's elder twin sister, and the eldest of their three children.

History
Kin'u and Gyokuto were born in a house at Kaede's village.

Not much is known about Kin'u childhood/teenage years because the anime only shows her briefly as a child alongside Gyokuto when Rin is giving birth to Towa and Setsuna on the night of the lunar eclipse.

Years later, Kin'u (now an adult) seems to have followed in her father's footsteps and became a nun.

Personality
Kin'u treated Inuyasha just like Kagome did when she first met him, calling him "Doggy" and petting his ears. As usual, Inuyasha was annoyed by this as he did not like his ears being touched by anyone. They acted like most toddlers would, seeing as how they were curious and still so young. They also enjoy playing with Shippō in a way that is not enjoyable to him.

As an adult, Kin'u, seems to not take things seriously and openly makes fun of her father when he comes up with new ways to train. Kin'u also reacts defensively when Hisui insinuates that she isn't a brave older sister like Towa. Kin'u is more outgoing, playful, cheerful and childlike.

Physical Description
Kin'u bare a striking resemblance to her mother as she have dark brown hair and eyes. This may be a hint that they are identical twins rather than fraternal. Kin'u wears a green kimono with a rose-colored sash, and her hair is tied up by a white ribbon.

As an adult, Kin'u wears a nun's attire with a saffron sash, a black robe, brown sandals and a necklace of fuchsia beads. She wears her short hair down in a bob cut.

Powers and abilities
Kin'u becomes a nun (female version of a monk) and has her own spiritual powers that she yet to display and develop fully.

Trivia

 * Neither her or Gyokuto's names were revealed in the manga.
 * The twins were two of the final new characters introduced in the original series.
 * Together with Gyokuto, they are collectively called "KinGyo" (きんぎょ) by their parents and close friends.
 * Her name 金烏 translate to "Golden Crow." Miroku may have named her and her sister according to the Chinese idiom "金乌西坠，玉兔东升" – the golden crow of the sun sets in the west, the jade hare of the moon rises in the east. The idiom originates from a phrase in an ancient text.
 * Ki'nu seems to have inherited Miroku's goofy side, while Gyokuto got his composure; they both inherited Sango's devotion and loyalty to family.
