Gate Keepers usually have sad backgrounds because their gates absorb their happiness. The reason for her agelessness is explained in episode 5.
She even consents to be given a new Sailor Fuku to wear. Recognizing a similar sadness in the daughter of an old friend, she helps and befriends Ayane and Miu. Tragically while her body has not aged, her powers and strength are finally waning and long ago gave up appearing in front of her old friend Saemi Ukiya. Along with her pet ermine, Hisame, they have been the source for the rumours of ghosts that come out at night. The ageless gatekeeper who talks in Tanka poetry and wears a kimono has taken up residence in Tategami High. Voiced by: Masami Suzuki (Japanese), Lia Sargent (English) Her close friends, Chinami and Nao, even says that she does not get mad at all. Miu, upon being asked by Ayane what she is fighting for, answers that she wants to make everyone happy and is just curious. When Miu is in Ayane's presence, she asks if she can do anything, but Ayane either ignores her or just tells her how worthless she is. Miu's Gate power manifests itself when she attempts to escape from the excessive attentions of one of her dates-and that is when Ayane discovers her as well, and reluctantly recruits her to the AEGIS cause.Īfter being recruited by Ayane, Miu starts to hang out with her which makes her friends wonder what made her hang out with such a weird person. She has few wants or desires apart from spending time with her friends, going on dates, and managing the school's soccer team. Miu is a cheerful, clumsy and often clueless student in Ayane's class at Tategami High. Voiced by: Yukiko Hanioka (Japanese), Kari Wahlgren (English) The only thing she treasures is a tiny bell, one of the few happy memories she has from her childhood, which she keeps on the lid of her laptop computer. Because of this abandonment she resents using UP-15 and her inherited Gate of Wind. She and her mother were left to fend for themselves when her father, Shun Ukiya, dies battling Invaders. Her past is revealed bit-by-bit in each episode, including her reason for avoiding any of the connections to her father. She is bitter about almost everything, as if she does not care about her surroundings, which is why she has few to no friends at all.
She often uses her computer to strategically time the deployment of the imitation Gates, and also uses various tracking programs to detect and home in on Invader activity. When Ayane battles Invaders, she prefers to use pre-programmed imitation Gates that are triggered by specially designed cellular phones. She has a strong resemblance to Saemi Ukiya but she has an attitude reminiscent of Megumi Kurogane. Ayane's classmates consider her to be a geek and more than a little strange, not only because she is seldom seen without her computer, but also because of her introverted attitude and near-hostility to social situations.
Voiced by: Ikue Ohtani (Japanese), Rebecca Forstadt (English)Īn intelligent student, Ayane is ranked third-highest of her entire class at Tategami High School. The premier agent of the AEGIS Network is the antisocial Ayane Isuzu who collects the crystal remains of Invader in exchange for money doled out by the mysterious Reiji Kageyama. Officially disbanded and discredited, the few remaining remnants of AEGIS have formed a clandestine network of operatives to hunt down and destroy the Invaders. No longer an alien entity, the Invaders can now absorb ordinary humans into their ranks. Coupled with the decline in the values and morals of the Japanese people comes the emergence of a new type of Invader.
The bright future that people hoped for is spiraling out of the reach of the common citizen. The heyday of growth and prosperity have passed, the crime rate has increased, environmental problems have worsened, and the international situation has become increasingly unstable. Big businesses thrived until the eighties (when the Shōwa period ended with the death of Hirohito). Thirty one years have passed since the Far Eastern Branch of AEGIS and the Invaders waged war in Japan.
