mastergraywolfFrom time to time, I'm going to just ramble and release what's going on in my head during drafting. There are some things I don't unveil on Wikia due to them being spoilers or just being thought up from a sudden whim.
So, today is Seishin and SolAka.
Ikaruga Squadron (イカルガ隊)
A team of Seki fighter pilots that consist of five members, from 1 to 5: Commander Ikaruga (鵤), Tagahane (差羽), Shibaya (差羽也), Jimanosuke (島之介) and Zetabi (ぜたビ), named after birds. One of them happens to be Homura’s brother. It was their bravery that helped the Taiyoko, SolAka, and Baoshiro enter Earth from the moon to get the drop on Yami and Indra.
Ikaruga means Japanese Grosbeak (斑鳩). I thought it was "pigeon", but that is "hatora", so where did the confusion come from after all these years? I honestly don't know now. He has white hair with black streaks, green eyes, so it give him the identity of the strong heart type. Maybe someone who is gloomy, but he is mind-oriented person. For last name, I initially thought of Kaina (灰奈). In today's society of Shirei, those outside of the tribal nobility decided to ignore their surnames because its a time of equality. Especially during war time. But surnames are for I.D purposes like for military.
He is the Squad leader or Flight leader, making him a 1st Lt. In the next chapter, he'll be facing the Heii and Heii II. So it's an interesting (or complex) case of standard interceptor vs stealth fighter. Also will be the same case in United We Soar, so I'm looking into radar utilization and absorbency as much as I can.
The other characters don't have much characterization for now since they have roles as pilots. But Ikaruga are close to his squad.
Tagahane cries easily; Zetabi isn't present ATM.
