Story: The "previous" Ai was conceived as a girl reincarnated several times in various eras, the only element revealed in her version is that: She belonged to a lineage of Japanese artists, a figure linked in some way to the puppeteers of an ancient group of Bunraku (文楽), and was finally freed by the S / P in Alternative Tokyo (year 2099). Ai has already used her power once, decreeing the defeat of the Corrupted Coven in the previous version of the Concept (Chaos Breaker).

Uncovering Ai's true past, present and future is impossible, a pure force of the nature that transcends the laws of reality and legend.

Description: Ai represents a real Japanese girl from Tokyo, has no fixed clothes or character costumes, Ai Hisano is 100% stylish and real. Or almost: the "Muse" in the S/P universe are purely feminine entities, endowed with divine or semi-divine powers, only a few of them are able to stop time and shaping reality once every seven years, thus changing the fate of events or the predetermined future.

Story: After the confrontation in Tokyo 2099, Ushio retreated to one of the underground bases. The current "Ushio" is the real one and seems to be at least twenty years older than its predecessor. His nature of Yokai/Onryō doesn't seem to have changed, he seems to have the same habits as his previous version but appears more human and with improved assassin skills.

He appears in unusual places, trades strange things with dark elves that appear and disappears in the basement and he likes to see black cats walking through the stripes pedestrian. Beyond that, he appears to have no remorse for killing a double of him, posers and boastful "kings". There are no other known notions of his true nature or actions.

Sometimes a black cat appears and disappears in the most unusual places near him.

Description: Black Muskeeter cap or black baseball cap, bandana-black mask with the tip of a spear and always in a dark/elegant style. Hiragana tattoo of "Ushio" right forearm (うしお).

Story: After the confrontation in Tokyo 2099, Sasori also returned, his arm healed and completely cybernetic and improved. He decided to establish himself in the Japanese Division with Ai and Ryu, leaving the others to take care of the remaining missions in Europe and the alternative realities.

Sasori symbol is a tribute to "Black Scorpion", every now and then he plays dressed in black with a braid that looks like a scorpion's tail. Without a doubt the animal, the super heroine look, the Mortal Kombat character and the kanji are among Sasori's preferences.

No one knows his age at the moment, he resides in Tokyo and is said to be seen appearing in the Konbini at various nighttime hours near Yokohama.

Description: Long hair and sometimes wearing a top hat or a baseball cap, black bandana-mask with scorpion and kanji symbol / hiragana of Sasori. Often in classic elegant or metal style.

Story: After the Tokyo 2099 clash, Ryu appeared to help the Guild, and eventually transported Sasori with Ghcan to a futuristic hospital. Ryu's arrival was fortuitous, he seemed to have known Sasori for some time or perhaps they had met in who knows what era (or concert!), the entire Japanese Division is currently his home, and his market experiences, research and missions to be granted always guarantee high profits and opportunities to be taken before the others.

Ryu is still trying to understand the strange members of the Guild, many of them don't even seem human or completely sane, yet the cause of ousting the Corrupted Coven is one of his goals.

Description: Unknow at the moment, black bandana-mask with a diamond frame/Dragon head

Story: After the Tokyo 2099 clash, Kijako seems to have lost all of his arcane powers and the ability to control the “Xaz” droids he was the creator of. He withdrew to reflect on what was happening, and then he discovered the art of "Symbionism" by devoting himself to shaping or merging with other living beings, taking complete control of their abilities.

Returning to the underground base of Italy 1944 with the others, he seems the only one to have discovered a very peculiar thing: the real Ushio eliminate its younger and inexperienced versions in the various eras or reincarnations. A type of power and form of immortality...who must discover how to learn!

Description: Kijako still appears young with particularly black clothes, and his bandana bears the symbol, its meaning unknown. He learned a lot about the Symbionsism and and he also seems to have grown physically and in power over the last few years of his training. This new power seems to be able to speak in his thoughts, perhaps a consequence of events or his efforts, despite this during the missions his powers and mutations prove to be an ace in the hole.

Story: After the Tokyo 2099 clash, Aenima returned to the ancient hidden temple in which he was trapped, not particularly injured but had finally discovered his fate after the liberation of the muse by the S/P.

No one has seen Aenima in his real form since, he never seems to come out of the cloud and at the moment he has settled in the alternative Italy of 1944 with Ushio, Gchan, Kijako and Hatechu but is managing to come back to the Japan Division after completing some tasks.

The real origins of the indigo producer, probably Aenima is not an entity of their world but a "something" coming from deep spaces.

Description: Aenima always appears like a medium cloud, rumors say that inside can be hidden a type of Ufo or spaceship, his real “alien” form is unknown. He still has the stylized “cloud” as symbol in the black bandana-mask.

Story: After the Tokyo 2099 clash, Gchan seemed to have grown up in a short time after the events, Gchan seemed more sarcastic, infamous and prone to acts of angry rebellion (as well as running a very popular blog of his fans ready to unleash riots at his orders!).

Hatechu explained to Sasori what could have happened: Gchan had not simply grown up in a dangerous context, but the influence and destruction of the old Ushio, could have cursed his younger brother. In fact, he was starting to look almost like the grim dandy, but Sasori was certain that in reality that dual personality of Gchan had always been there ...

Description: G-chan looks like a young man around 20, halfway between a typical Japanese student and an aspiring boy band idol but he changes after the Tokyo clash. G-chan wear cool modern black suite or a strange dark dandy/uniform. He still wear the black bandana-mask with the hiragana symbol "JI".
