Sakura Igawa

Sakura is carefree, upbeat and vigorous, but also much more naive and a big airhead at times. Her constant, optimism and support for friends and family is honest and always direct.

Sakura, enjoys teasing and joking around, often in physical ways. She is more interested and nosy around romance and unlike her sister, that has given up on the idea, does want to marry at some point, being also a bit more carnal even though she has no success. She is lax with housework, which turns the Igawa Estate into a battlefield if her sister isn't around to clean up after her. Sakura would rather get drunk, watch TV or play video games with her friends, than working around the house, and this does not change even with higher age. Sakura also is not a morning person and is often pulled out of bed by her older sister.

As a tomboy, she loves the idea of Taimanins being heroes of justice and wishes to protect everybody. While she used to be more naive and inexperienced, in the past, she has gotten better in the regard. Though she acts goofy at times, she gets serious when in fights and can be mature if really called for. As a teacher, she is someone that is easy to deal with and gives her students great and simple advice, though her advice towards both fashion and romance can be a bit wild, and a person should be careful following it fully. She respects her students' accomplishments and would defend them with her own life, and is in turn loved by her students for her uncomplicated explanations and lessons. She still has a small complex about being the smaller sister, of one of the most skilled Taimanin of their age, and trains hard to keep up. As she has a natural talent for fighting and unconventional battle tactics, she is hard to predict. She is also able to wait, and plan long-term, remaining in hiding or using the fact people underestimate her to her advantage.

Sakura is obliviously silly and childish a lot of the time, but also very forgiving and less strict. Overall, Sakura spreads cheerful vibes where she goes and acts very friendly. She only feels down if she thinks she is a burden to her sister or friends. Sakura is very skilled in the taming of Taimanin animals, and thinks even the more vicious beasts are very cute, she overall loves animals and if put into a bad mood, she recovers quick if she sees one.

She has a high amount of willpower but does break more easily.

Appearance: Sakura has short, blonde hair with spiky bangs, blue eyes and a light skin tan. She is younger than her sister Asagi, but has a larger bust than her. Sakura wears a black full-body battle suit with pantyhose as part of her taimanin suit. Her casual attire is a off-shoulder white sweater, black short shorts with a pink belt, black thigh-high boots and gold buckles, black and silver bracelets on the left wrist, pink bracelet on the right wrist and a silver ring on the right hand.

Her main weapons are twin ninja daggers.

Her ninja art is called "Shadow Art" which gives her the ability to travel between shadows, create blades or shadow creatures like sharks, spiders or bears, and to remain hidden within the shadows if needed. It is considered a unique ninja art.

Gosha Village is the headquarters of the Taimanin created by assembling the shinobi and clans, who were originally scattered across Japan.

The new-village is located somewhere hidden in the Kanto region and has been build near ancient forests and mountains. Though the village probably existed in some form since ancient times, it wasn't used as a headquarters for all Taimanin. Forming out of the fusion of smaller villages it now has a population of 10000 people.

A few years before the Fuuma Revolt, during the Taimanin Unification began the construction of the unified village for the many Taimanin Clans, which before this had their own villages. This should be in all continues around the year 2065. Gosha Village would later war against Fuuma Village, in year 2068.

Financed by the Japanese government, its headquarter would be Gosha Academy, which was finished later. It is hidden with the help of modern technology and Ninja Arts in the surrounding forests and mountain, which are also very dangerous, keeping it save. The next close town is Maesaki City, that still is 3 hours away with changing between buses and trains. The Gosha was built after the recent political crisis and stronger influence of the Dark World. The Government of Japan funded it originally illegally, and more recently legally, under Section Three supervision. Conflict about who should rule it began early, with first the Fuuma clan being the connection to the government, but now it is under control of the Igawa clan and elders. Information about the hidden village is suppressed by the government, but people like Nobushige Yamamoto in Section Three are able to contact them.

Gosha Academy is used as the headquarters of Gosha Village, in which most Taimanin receive missions but also training which makes Asagi Igawa, the principal is also de facto mayor of the village.
