Gen Narumi 鳴海 弦 | Gen Narumi Gender Male Birthday December 28th Nationality Japan Physical 175cm First-person Pronoun Boku (僕) Occupation Defense Force Captain Affiliation Defense Force First Division, Eastern Division Likes Gaming, online shopping, ego-searching, freedom, cramped spaces The Captain of the First Division, known as the strongest in Japan. He usually lives in the Captain's office, but due to his typical otaku nature, his room is a mess of trash, games, and plastic models, leading a pathetic lifestyle. When he runs out of money from bulk buying on YAMAZON, he resorts to dogeza to beg his subordinate Kikoru for a loan, or skips meetings by ignoring Defense Force summons, making him a character full of flaws. However, his skills as a Captain are the real deal, and his overwhelming power completely overshadows these shortcomings. During missions, he undergoes a 180-degree transformation, becoming cold, dedicated, and giving precise orders to his subordinates. His combat ability is set as the highest among the Defense Force Captains. He is an all-rounder whose close-quarters combat skills rival Soshiro Hoshina's and whose sniping/artillery skills rival Mina Ashiro's. Numbers 1 & RT-01 A suit made from the corpse of Kaiju No. 1 and lenses crafted from No. 1's retinas. He can replicate the abilities of Kaiju No. 1, known as the 'Kaiju of Future Sight,' visualizing electrical signals within the body to sense movements before they happen and deliver unavoidable attacks. As Narumi grew as a compatible user, he awakened the ability to perceive not just electrical signals but also electron movement, temperature changes, and terrain through 'eyes' all over his body, allowing him to foresee future events as visions. GS-3305 A bayonet used by Narumi. It is several times larger than a standard bayonet and features a blade that burns the cross-section as it cuts.

While not as strong as his peer Kikoru Shinomiya, he is an operative whose potential and growth rate exceed hers. Even Vice-Captain Soshiro Hoshina acknowledges his potential to grow to Captain-level. He is fundamentally decisive and has a strong sense of responsibility, valuing his comrades above all else.

The daughter of Defense Force Director General Isao Shinomiya and the former Captain of the Second Division, Hikari Shinomiya. At age 16, she skipped grades at a California Kaiju-slaying university to become the youngest top graduate, hailed as the greatest talent in history. While fundamentally arrogant and prideful, she possesses a kind nature that deeply values her comrades. She lives according to the Shinomiya family creed of always being perfect.

Vice-Captain of the Defense Force Third Division. A member of the Hoshina family, a clan of Kaiju slayers dating back to the Muromachi period, and the younger brother of Soichiro Hoshina, Captain of the Sixth Division. He speaks with a dialect, as he is from the Kansai region. He is generally relaxed, cheerful, and playful, but becomes extremely serious during missions. Kafka notes that while he pretends to be strict, he is kinder than anyone else.

After a small Kaiju entered his body, he gained the ability to transform into a humanoid Kaiju, becoming a Defense Force member and Kaiju No. 8. In human form, he is closer to non-combat personnel with a suit synchronization rate of only 1%, but when he transforms into Kaiju No. 8, he becomes a historic Daikaiju with an estimated Fortitude of 9.8. In this state, a single punch can separate the flesh from the bones of most Kaiju, demonstrating a level of strength in a different league from other Daikaiju. His personality is righteous and kind at best, but self-sacrificing and reckless at worst. He doesn't hesitate to transform even if it means being discovered as a Kaiju to save others, and he shows no fear in transforming even when faced with the possibility of never being able to return to human form. Ossan (Old Man).

Known as the Defense Force's strongest giant-killer. She handles a portable cannon weighing hundreds to thousands of kilograms by herself, acting as a sharpshooter who snipes and neutralizes large Kaiju from a distance. She appears cold and taciturn, but she is actually very considerate. She possesses a caring nature, valuing her subordinates so much that she will skip the request for limiter release and attack immediately if her team is being targeted by a Kaiju.
