Characters<\/h2>\n

Kamui Saibara<\/h3>\n

\"Kamui<\/center>
\nSeventeen-year-old high schooler, Kamui Saibara is a total flirt! He\u2019s always surrounded by girls. But don\u2019t let the Romeo vibes fool you, Kamui is effortlessly kind and gets on with everyone. His Hero persona is Sei. Sei is a bit stand-offish, but once you get to know her better, you realise that she\u2019s honest and kind. Her power is precognition, which basically means that she can see into the future and even predict what the gaiju are going to do.<\/p>\n

Tokio Takato<\/h3>\n

\"Tokio<\/center>
\nTokio is 17 years old and in his second year of high school. He has a genius-level intellect and the highest grades in the colony. But he\u2019s been known to doze off in class because he regularly burns the midnight oil doing his own research in a room he rents at the academy. Tokio transforms into Kaori, a self-assured leader who commands her team with military precision. Her power is called \u2018Mind Operate\u2019 and it allows her to control the perceptions of others.<\/p>\n

Mihaya Araki<\/h3>\n

\"Mihaya<\/center>
\nY\u016bki\u2019s underclassman, 15-year-old Mihaya Araki, is a classic misanthrope who chooses solitude over camaraderie any day. He\u2019s always got his head in a book so the library is his favorite place. But, Mihaya doesn\u2019t avoid people without reason. A tragic past means that trust doesn\u2019t come easily to the young Mihaya and he has been known to lash out with his poisonous tongue when pushed too far. Mihaya\u2019s Hero persona is called Moka and she speaks with a sing-song Kansai drawl. Moka\u2019s power is the \u2018Gift Ability\u2019 which allows her to take away her opponent\u2019s powers.<\/p>\n

Ayumu Mamiya<\/h3>\n

\"Ayumu<\/center>
\n17 years old Ayumu Mimiya is the student council president. He\u2019s more reserved than the others and has a very nurturing vibe. He looks after the team and everyone looks up to him. A man of few words, Ayumu doesn\u2019t open up to anyone except his childhood friend Tokio Takato and his younger sister. Ayumu transforms into Haruka and her power is \u2018Dust Flame\u2019.<\/p>\n

Ibuki<\/h3>\n

\"Ibuki\"<\/center>
\nSinister? Enigmatic? Evasive? Ibuki is one of those guys who shows up\u2014when you least expect them to\u2014and asks a bunch of confusing questions. Talking to him always feels like he\u2019s in on some joke that no one else knows about. His calm and carefree manner belies his age and his not-so-good intentions for Y\u016bki. Ibuki transforms into gaiju leader, Moravia.<\/p>\n

Ryo Tomizuka<\/h3>\n

\"Ryo<\/center>
\nRy\u014d is your typical silent, observant type. He comes in and out of student\u2019s lives and his job title is \u2018delivery man\u2019 but no one is buying that! He gives off major sage mentor Yoda vibes\u2014powerful and all-knowing. His appearances on campus are so rare that there\u2019s a rumor going around that if you catch sight of him something good will happen to you.<\/p>\n

Yukinami<\/h3>\n

\"Yukinami\"<\/center>
\nNaive, pure, and innocent, Yukinami is a lover, not a fighter. He\u2019s like a magpie and he loves finding new, beautiful, shiny things. But he\u2019s also a bit naive because of his sheltered upbringing. <\/p>\n

Hyuga<\/h3>\n

\"Hyuga\"<\/center>
\nHyuga, who works with Yukinami, is really caring, but sadly he has a deep hatred of the human race because of something that happened in the past.<\/p>\n
