Characters – Human (1998)

In this post the characters of 1998 are outlined.

 

Ange Ushiromiya (右代宮 縁寿)
Age: 18 (6 in 1986)
Position: Head of the Family in 1998

Overview: The younger half-sister of Battler, from Rudolf and Kyrie. 12 years after the massacre of her family, leaving only her aunt Eva alive, Ange has become quite bitter and generally anti-social. She doesn’t find value in her fortune or position, only wishing to find the truth of what happened between October 4th and 5th 1986. Every game she is the only member of her family that comes out alive, as she was sick and could not attend the annual conference that year, and is taken under the care of her aunt, Kasumi Sumadera. However in the 3rd game that changes due to Eva’s survival. Because of this major change in the normal timeline Frederica Bernkastel, who wishes to thwart Beatrice’s game, approved Ange to become Ange-Beatrice (after Eva gave away the title of Beatrice with the inheritance) and allow the younger sister to ascend into Meta-World, in order to help Battler.

 

Amakuza Juuza (天草 十三)
Age: Unknown – most likely in his 30’s
Position: Ange’s bodyguard

Overview: Before 1998 Juuza had worked as one of the private guards for Eva, but was fired by her due to his friendly attitude towards Ange. Despite his young age Juuza is a professional guard, working for private military companies in Japan and France. Okonogi employed him to guard Ange for the weekend, but with her large sum of money she can keep him around for as long as she likes. He enjoys risky jobs and even if he were to get shot one day during an assignment he would be more than fine with the way he lived his life up to that moment.

 

Kasumi Sumadera (須磨寺 霞)
Age: Unknown – most likely around her late 40’s to 50’s.
Position: Current Head of the Sumadera family

Overview: Unlike her frank speaking older sister, Kyrie Ushiromiya, Kasumi is far more conniving and shrew in her behavior. Although she is the younger sister of the two, because Kyrie married Rudolf and left the family behind, Kasumi was recognized as the head of the family. Needless to say she seems to hold some type of disdain towards Ange and her intentions in trying to get Ange in her clutches surely cannot end well.

 

Okonogi Tetsuro (小此木 鉄郎)
Age: Unknown
Position: Retired CEO of Okonogi Foods and manager of the Ushiromiya fortune

Overview: He does not gas villages for a living. Really.

Back in 1986 he was the head of Okonogi Foods, which had ties to Hideyoshi’s fast food franchise. It was perhaps due to this that in her state of paranoia and progressive mental breakdown after the massacre Okonogi was the only person Eva trusted enough with managing the family assets.
