| Orochi no Orochi |
| Orochi no Orochi; monster of the Kushinada legend that was slain by the Storm god Susano-oh. Orochi makes his debut at the beginning of Blue Seed and he captures Momiji to sacrifice her inside of a ceramic field in order to free the Aragami race from the power of the Kushinada. Not only is he the arch enemy of the Kushinada, he is also the one responsible for killing Mamoru Kusanagi's parents and enslaving him to the Aragami race. Orochi gave the toddler Kusanagi seven of his souls to make him stronger so that he might protect the Princess Kushinada. He did this not out of kindess but out of determination to keep the humans from sacrificing the young Princess and sending the Aragami back into eternal slumber. He is Kusanagi's master, and he doesn't take to betrayal very well, attempting to kill Kusanagi for rebelling against the Aragami. He is unsuccessful, however and ironically ends up dispensing another of his Aragami souls to save Momijiin order to ensure the Aragami's continued presence in the human world. He's a giant plant, so I don't think he has a blood type, and he's probably excluded from the zodiac as well. |
| Sakura Yamazaki |
| Sakura Yamazaki is a CIA operative sent to Japan to scout out the Aragami situation. She was born in Japan, and her family was responsible for banishing a water monster, Nodzuchi (sp?). When Momiji and Kaede were born, the water monster awoke. Sakura's mother died trying to banish it and Sakura was taken to America by a government agent. She has a great deal in common with Kusanagi. Perhaps that is why they are always competing against one another to see who can kill the Aragami first... Sakura is attractive, over-confident in her abilities and can be accused of not knowing her own strength (such as when she demolished a construction site). She loves the limelight and gets quite testy when she feels that she is being upstaged; one of the main reasons for her dislike of Momiji. As far as she's concerned: Momiji is nothing but a sacrifice; where's the talent in that? Whereas Sakura has worked to become a top notch priestess. She is bold, out-going, and in Kusanagi's own words, has a lot of nerve. Despite her exhibitionism, she is a great character and a lot of fun to watch. |
| Shunichi Sugishita is twenty five years of age and considers himself to be quite the ladies' man. He is the General Manager of the Aragami Countermeasure Management Command Center and works as a go between for Metropolitan Police Department and the Terrestrial Administration Center. Not many people get to be manager at his age, or so he says. And Momiji seems to be quite impressed by this fact, until Takeuchi tells her that his department is where Metro dumps all the losers. Takeuchi and Sugishita used to work together at the Metro Police Department, a fact that he tries hard to get her to remember, and a fact that she would just as soon forget. Sugishita is always making passes at Takeuchi and usually gets beat up for his efforts. He even makes a pass at Sakura and ends up getting burnt there, too. Poor boy; some guys were just born to lose, I guess.... Sugishita's blood type is B and his zodiac sign is Scorpio. |
