The Scramble Vice Main Characters 02
Tidbit 2: A baddass female lead, a straight-laced leader, an incurable playboy, a well-born lady, a shifty old man… the list goes on.
In Shinobi non grata, the protagonist worked alone. But this time there’s a whole bunch of characters with merry banter.
Mai Ryugasaki
Heiress of the conglomerate “Ryugasaki Group”, Mai could have lived a cushy life but chose to join the 9th mobile unit so she may contribute to society.
Her family thought she would come running back after having a taste of the rigorous training at the police force, but Mai has become an indispensable communications officer for her unit with her quick wits, calm personality and high social skills.
Asuha Kiryu
Mechanic of the 9th mobile unit. She stepped in her grandfather’s shoes after he began having difficulties working from rheumatism. She’s terrific at her job, but drinks, gambles, and smokes like there’s no tomorrow. A big fan of the Carps baseball team, she’ll be in a bad mood the day after they lose a match. A good friend of Kei’s, they often hit the bars together.
Nanigashi
An officer with a thousand faces. Originally an undercover agent, he’s destroyed several crime syndicates. He made a grave mistake while working undercover, which caused him to be ostracized from his unit. It was then when Jinguji offered him a position in the Scramble Vice. He’s particularly good at close combat.
Asura
4th generation exoskeletal assault suit used by the 9th mobile unit. Due to budget, it’s a slightly older model, but it is customizable and able to install a wide variety of weapons. It’s hard shell and high mobility earned it’s nickname “Steel Cat”.
Like other suits, a leveled electronic warrant has to be issued for it to be unlocked, but if its AI system deems it relevant Asura is able to open fire without provocation.
