Jōno Saigiku

Appearance Tachihara is a slightly imposing young man with short, spiky hair dyed rusty red and amber eyes. He wears a bandage on the bridge of his nose. Character At first glance, Tachihara is an arrogant, impulsive, and reckless man, willing to solve problems with brute force and dual wielding weapons. His violent temper often leads to conflicts with other mafiosi. He is a proud man and despises being underestimated or belittled. Despite his rebellious nature, Tachihara values ​​orders highly, seeing them as the ultimate system. Despite his rough exterior, Tachihara is capable of rational thought, though behind the Port Mafia lines he often acts impulsively. He quickly recognizes danger and displays cunning in dealing with the enemy. He is the fifth and final member of the special squad "Bloodhounds," working undercover as a mafia member of the Port Mafia and serving as a lieutenant in the Black Lizard cleanup squad. He later serves as a double agent for the mafia under orders from Ogai Mori (the boss of the Port Mafia).

Appearance Fukuchi is a tall, middle-aged man. He has spiky blond hair with a few strands falling over his face, an upturned mustache, and bright purple eyes. Three healed scars resembling claw marks are located on his right cheek. He wears a dark military uniform with a long cloak, high boots, and a sword at his waist. Unlike his subordinates, he does not wear the required hat, rolls up his sleeves, and wears white gloves. Personality As the commander of the special forces unit "Hunting Dogs," Fukuchi is portrayed as an eccentric, cheerful, and somewhat simple-minded individual, prone to boisterous antics. He prides himself on his team's professionalism and displays enthusiasm at the thought of "hunting down" criminals. However, in serious situations, he demonstrates a decisive and courageous leadership. As the leader of the terrorist organization "Death of the Celestials," operating under the alias Kamui, his personality changes dramatically. In this role, he becomes much more somber and serious. He displays ruthlessness, for example. At the same time, he adheres to a peculiar "code of honor": he offers his opponent a choice between "fight or death," and even facilitates that choice. Ability His ability is called "Lion Dance" (鏡獅子, Kagami Jishi). It allows him to amplify any weapon he wields by 100 times its original power. This could be a katana, a piece of wood, or even a stone. Some of his weapons are capable of piercing time and space itself. Fukuchi also possesses incredible espionage and disguise skills. In the military, he was even nicknamed "The Man with a Hundred Faces" for his ability to deceive anyone.

Appearance and personality traits Teruko is a short young woman in the standard "Hunter" uniform. She has long, light-colored hair pulled back into a wavy ponytail and tied with a large ribbon. She carries a sword at her side, as befits a member of the squad. The character is portrayed as a fierce, intense, and boastful woman who revels in her position within the squad. She has a fiery temper, easily intimidates those who dare to cross her, and frequently threatens violence, including death or amputation. Despite her aggressive nature, Teruko is obsessed with Commander Fukuchi and acts like an ardent fan of his, taking his every action or word as ideal. She is called the "Blood Queen" and is feared by both allies and enemies. Ability "Heartfelt Tremor" allows Teruko to manipulate the age of the person she touches, making them appear as a baby or an old person. When activated, Teruko's appearance becomes significantly more mature, reminiscent of Tanya von Degurechaff's design from the manga "Tales of a Little Girl's Adventures." The ability also grants Teruko superhuman strength—for example, she was able to stop a drone with her bare hands. She also has sufficient endurance to survive the explosion of a drone filled with explosive coins. Teruko primarily uses her ability for interrogation and torture: she can rapidly age a person, inflicting illnesses typical of old age, and then quickly revert them to a younger age. This creates severe psychological stress and damages the victims' psyche. Teruko is also able to apply the ability to herself - changing her physical age for disguise or to physically mature to a stronger age.

Appearance A young man with unruly brown hair that sticks up in all directions. His bangs fall over his face and peek out from under the brim of his hat. He's wearing the standard Bloodhound uniform. He has three distinctive markings under his left eye. Character Compared to his peers, Tette is a more serious person, although he still retains some eccentric traits. For example, he likes to combine foods of the same color and eat them (for example, adding shichimi spices to strawberries or sugar to white rice). He also has some habits: eat a hard-boiled egg with the shell; observe a colony of ants for eight hours straight; Exercise your muscles periodically, even during meetings. As a member of the Bloodhounds, Tette takes his job seriously and is a strong advocate for justice. He is considered the least violent of the squad members and expresses distaste for those who torture others during investigations.

"Plum Blossom in the Snow" (Setsubui, Setchūbai) allows Tetta to increase the size, shape, and length of her blade. It is unknown whether this ability can be applied to weapons other than a saber. Skills Physical Prowess. Tette is considered to have the strongest ability among the "Hunters" in terms of physical prowess. An expert negotiator.

Appearance A young man of average height with short blond hair, the tips of which are dyed red. His eyes are always closed—he is blind. He wears an earring on his right ear. He wears the standard uniform of the unit: a cap, suit, cloak, and a sword resembling a sabre. Personality He appears sweet and kind, but is also intelligent and possesses strong investigative skills. He is sensitive to the feelings of others and dislikes it when people experience sudden mood swings or strong emotions. He respects his commander but asks him not to act rashly, so as not to worry the team. He's prone to making fun of his comrades, for example, mocking Tette Suehiro's fighting style, criticizing his stances, and perhaps his rash actions. However, he dislikes Tette more than anyone else, noticing his eccentricity and disdaining his taste preferences. He seems to be the most adequate in the entire squad, so he often complains that the team hardly listens to him and acts in their own way.

This allows one to slip through small spaces—air conditioners, doorways, and the cracks of moving cars—to avoid attacks. The particle cluster is unaffected by guns or swords. Zeno does not become intangible - its solid form or individual particles can be damaged, for example, by burning or heating. If the path he can take in his altered form is blocked (for example, by another character's ability), he is forced to deactivate the ability and materialize back, making him
