New Characters & Information
More information, from the official website:
- Hiruko Shizuhara (CV: Marina Inoue) – Leader of the Special Defense Unit. A cold, almost heartless beauty, she always says what’s on her mind, even if it means offending others. She’s just as merciless on the battlefield, where she gets a twisted sense of pleasure from tearing invaders apart.
- Tsubasa Kawana (CV: Ayane Sakura) – A girl who knows a lot about machines and what makes them tick. She had a bright, lively personality, but isn’t good with stressful situations. When she gets nervous, she gets nauseous, and then…
- Gaku Maruko (CV: Kensho Ono) – A guy who’s true to his personal desires (to put it delicately). He’s a coward and always looking out for himself. However, there’s something so refreshingly honest about his pettiness that it’s hard to hate him. Gaku’s also good at taking care of other people once he opens his heart to them.
- Kyoshika Magadori (CV: Marina Inoue) – A young samurai who’s utterly clueless about the modern world. Has never even heard of multiplication tables, let alone learned them. She has a disturbingly close relationship with her katana, the Holy Jumonji Sword.
- Yugamu Omokage (CV: Daisuke Namikawa) – A boy who’s been in the business of killing since long before the war started. Unlike the rest of his family (who are also assassins, by the way), Yugamu believes that killing should be done with love. He enjoys torture and other immoral forms of pleasure.
- SIREI (CV: Otsuka Hochu) – The principal and commanding officer of Last Defense Academy. To put it another way, a weird little robot that orders the members of the Special Defense Unit around. Under his command, Takumi and the others will be working to wipe out the mysterious School Invaders.
- Takemaru Yakushiji (CV: Chikahiro Kobayashi) – An old-school delinquent who lives to ride and rides to live. Despite his rough-and-ready demeanor, Takemaru’s really a nice guy on the inside. Impulsive, straightforward, and honorable to a fault, he’s sworn to never use his strength to bully the weak.
- Shouma Ginzaki (CV: Shun Horie) – A young man who, by his own admission, has absolutely nothing going for him. On a scale of one to ten, his self-esteem’s at negative five. He’s constantly putting himself down.
- Moko Mojiro (CV: Kukuko Inoue) – A young woman who is blowing up on the high school pro wrestling scene. Her courage and boundless energy is a source of inspiration for the entire Special Defense Unit. Whenever she has a problem, she faces it head on. She didn’t choose the wrasslin’ life—it chose her.
- Nigou (CV: Ikue Otani) – Sirei’s assistant and second in command. An odd little robot that has a gentle, caring personality, but is also prone to making careless mistakes. He’s completely loyal and subservient to Sirei.
- Nozomi Kirifuji (CV: Tomoyo Kurosawa) – A high schooler who combines a kindhearted nature with dogged determination in battle. She’s very passionate about the Special Defense Unit’s mission, but also seems to be hiding something. For some reason, Nozomi is identical in appearance to Takumi’s childhood friend Karua.
The demo for The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy will be available on PC via Steam starting February 18th, with progress carrying over to the full game when it launches on April 24th for Nintendo Switch and PC. A demo for the Switch will be announced at a later date.
