The Hundred Line -Last Defense Academy- Introduces Its Characters
Today Too Kyo Games and Xseed Games released a trailer of The Hundred Line -Last Defense Academy- by the creators of Danganronpa, which is coming for Nintendo Switch on April 24, 2025.
We get to meet six different characters, described as follows in the press release.
Takumi Sumino / “Everyman” – The main character of this story. A completely average high schooler from a completely average family. He can be a little indecisive and pessimistic at times, but when he has something to protect, he’ll fight with everything he’s got.
Eito Aotsuki / “Voice of Reason” – Takumi’s most trusted ally. Eito cares very deeply for his friends and isn’t shy about expressing those feelings, corny as they may sound. He’s been weak and sickly since he was little, but his impressive intellect might be just what the team needs to guide them through the war safely.
Darumi Amemiya / “Manic Emo Dream Girl” – A young woman known for her mood swings and obsession with all things dark and depressing. She’s a big fan of killing-game stories and has no fear of death. If she has to die, all she wants is a death that’s as dramatic and flamboyant as humanly possible.
Ima Tsukumo / “Twin – Big Brother” – One of a set of twins – Ima is the elder by a few minutes.
He acts like a carefree joker, but underneath that humor is a hint of something darker. He thinks of nothing but protecting his sister. If anything – or anyone – dares to threaten Kako’s safety, Ima will show them no mercy.
Kako Tsukumo / “Twin – Little Sister” – One of a set of twins – Kako is the younger by a few minutes.
She’s prone to spacing out, but also has a keen mind and a healthy sense of curiosity. Kako is a big fan of mystery stories and wants to be a private investigator when she grows up.
Kurara Oosuzuki / “Rich Girl Among Rich Girls” – The scion of one of the wealthiest families humanity has ever known. She’s proud, overbearing, and acts like she’s better than anyone else. She always wears a strange tomato mask, never showing her true face
Yet, we’re not done, as a second trailer in Japanese introduces six more characters. Luckily, we’re provided with their descriptions in English.
Yugamu Omokage / “Teenage Assassin” – A striking young man 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, dissection, and other grotesque activities.
Kyoshika Magadori / “Ninja Samurai” – A young samurai who’s utterly clueless about the modern world. Has never even heard of multiplication tables, let alone learned them. She has an unsettlingly close relationship with her katana, the Holy Jumonji Sword.
Gaku Maruko / “Self-Centered Mood Maker” – 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.
Tsubasa Kawana / “Star Mechanic” – A young woman who knows a lot about machines and what makes them tick. She has a bright, lively personality, but isn’t good with stressful situations. When she gets nervous, she gets nauseous, and then…
Hiruko Shizuhara / “Ice Queen” – 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.
Sirei / Special Defense Unit’s Commanding Officer – 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 invaders.
