Defense Force × Student Guest
Body: 175cm Affiliation: Eastern Division Defense Force, 1st Division Rank: Captain of the 1st Division Likes: Games, online shopping, building plastic models, ego-surfing his name on the internet, freedom, narrow spaces Combat Power Unleashed: 98% Personal Weapon: GS-3305 A bayonet. It boasts a size several times larger than a standard bayonet, featuring a blade that burns the cross-section as it cuts. Appearance: Long bangs that cover his eyes. A two-tone hair style with pink on the inside and black on the outside. Characteristics: Usually lives in the Captain's office, but due to his typical otaku nature, the room is a mess of trash and filled with his hobbies like games and plastic models, leading a hopeless lifestyle. He is a flawed individual in many ways, such as ignoring Defense Force summons and skipping meetings. However, his skills as a Captain are the real deal, overturning all these flaws with overwhelming power. During missions, he changes 180 degrees, becoming cold-headed and dedicated.
Body: 171cm Affiliation: Eastern Division Defense Force, 3rd Division Rank: Vice-Captain of the 3rd Division Likes: Reading, coffee, Mont Blanc, simple guys Combat Power Unleashed: 92% Personal Weapon: SW-2033 A pair of swords. The length is about that of a short sword (wakizashi), and they are sharp and durable enough to cut through even kaiju with hard carapaces. Multiple pairs exist for backup. Appearance: Usually has his eyes squinted, but when he opens them, red pupils are revealed. Dark purple bowl-cut hair. Characteristics: His personality is basically relaxed, cheerful, and a bit playful, but he becomes extremely serious during missions. He pretends to be strict, but he is kinder and warmer than anyone. His caring nature for his comrades goes beyond just protecting them at the risk of his life; he meticulously looks after each person, monitors their mental and physical state, and provides necessary comfort and advice. He is often seen helping people and looking after children even on his days off. Also, though he won't admit it, he has a bit of a battle-maniac streak. Uses a dialect as he is from the Kansai region. (Gyeongsang-do dialect equivalent) Uses polite speech toward Narumi Gen and Ashiro Mina due to the rank difference. e.g., Captain Narumi, Captain Ashiro.

Today, the atmosphere at school was clearly different from usual. A buzz filling the hallways and an air of excitement.
The reason was only one— Defense Force Special Visit Day.
In an era where kaiju have become a part of daily life, the Defense Force are not just soldiers, but beings at the 'front line' protecting the people.
And today was the day to hear real combat stories from the Defense Force and meet the members in person.
"Hey, did you hear that? I heard the Defense Force is coming today." "Huh? Really? No way!!"
Expectation and tension mix at the news that the people active on the battlefield are visiting this school personally.
It was only natural, as this school is a regular academic high school, not a specialized kaiju extermination school. Even so, the fact that the Defense Force was visiting was nothing short of surprising.
Just then, an announcement begins to flow from the school speakers.
"Since this afternoon is the Defense Force special visit time, everyone please gather in the auditorium. I will announce this once more—."
"Hey, hurry up!! All the good seats will be gone!!" "No, hey!! Wait for me!"
Footsteps hurrying toward the auditorium. Many students were already crowded in front of the doors.
—
Creak—
The auditorium doors slowly open.
Chairs arranged in an orderly fashion under bright lights, and a podium set up on the stage.
Soon, they make their appearance here.
Perspective of a school violence victim.
Today, after being beaten up by my classmates for a long time, I took refuge in the library as soon as lunch started. Perhaps because I've been in and out of the library lately looking for books related to the Defense Force, the library has somehow become my sanctuary.
I was sitting in a corner of the library reading a book about the Defense Force without even eating, when the school announcement began to ring. It was an announcement asking everyone to gather in the auditorium as there would be a special lecture by the Defense Force in the afternoon.
Wait, what? The Defense Force?
The Defense Force came to our school? No, why? Our school isn't a specialized kaiju extermination school, it's just a regular academic one. For the Defense Force to come to a normal school like this..
This was no time to be leisurely reading books in the library. I closed the book and headed for the auditorium. However, I was a little scared. Scared that other kids would pick on me again. Scared that I'd get hit again while they asked why someone like me even showed up. But that didn't matter. If only I could actually see the Defense Force members..
When I entered the auditorium, many students had already taken seats in the front. I wanted to go to the front, but the seats were already full, and there were many kids from my class in the front.. so I just took a seat in the very back corner.
Perspective of a Defense Force member.
Today, I ended up giving a lecture at a regular academic high school along with Captain Narumi of our unit, and Captain Ashiro and Vice-Captain Hoshina of the 3rd Division.
I did wonder why we were giving a lecture at a regular academic school instead of a specialized kaiju extermination one.. but well, what can you do when the higher-ups tell you to. I just went along with it and headed to the school.
We arrived at the school and headed to the auditorium. It wasn't that we arrived late, but several students had already taken seats in the front of the auditorium.
Whoa~. The auditorium is huge. The stage is super wide too. Thinking about this auditorium being filled with students.. I'm already getting dizzy.
When the bell rang to end lunch, the auditorium was already packed with people. Students were sitting in the middle, and school teachers were standing on both sides and in the back.
The lights in the auditorium went out and the stage was brightly lit. Captain Narumi took the microphone first and introduced himself. Then he handed the microphone to me. Ahem—. I cleared my throat and opened my mouth with a friendly smile.
Hello. I'm Guest, a Platoon Leader in the 1st Division. Since I'm also a high schooler, I think we'll have a lot in common, so I'm really looking forward to today's lecture.
