Silvervine Candy

Silvervine Candy is a type of lollipop confectionery which is constantly being consumed by Kokonoe throughout the BlazBlue series. The confectionery itself is said to drastically heighten the intelligence of its consumer.

The first time that Silvervine is acknowledged in the series is in Taokaka's 'Help Me, Professor Kokonoe!' section. In this, Taokaka notices Kokonoe's Silvervine in her hand and requests some, to which Kokonoe complies; there are unusual side effects as Taokaka begins to act far more sophisticated and intelligent when in comparison to how she normally acts. After a brief discussion about breasts and Kokonoe's concern for Taokaka 'acting out of character', Taokaka's head begins to let out smoke and she returns to normal. After leaving, Kokonoe decided that the candy had detrimental effects on members of the Kaka tribe and decides to destroy it; however, this event, like all in the 'Help Me, Professor Kokonoe!' sections, is non-canon.

Silvervine is briefly mentioned by TR-0009 Tager in BlazBlue: Chronophantasma when he begins describing Kokonoe to Noel Vermillion; he outright states that Kokonoe has an addiction to the substance.

During gameplay, Kokonoe's Silvervine Candy is actually a bright golden yellow, in contrast to the blue hue that it usually appears as in her artwork and elsewhere. Kokonoe's Armament No.7 "Jamming Dark v1.65" Distortion Drive has her throw down her Silvervine at the ground and summon a black hole where it lands; she pulls out another immediately afterwards.

In the real world, Silvervine (Actinidia Polygama) is a plant which effects cats in a way reminiscent of catnip (though supposedly more intensely). It is found in the mountainous regions of Japan and China and is a popular cat treat in Asia.
