I don't like to get violent." Profile And Skills A modest young man with an unusual name, Akira Ookuma is to most people a polite and unassuming individual. Though unobtrusive, he has a peculiar sort of charm that makes him easy to associate with if not difficult to remember. This entertaining yet modest way about him is only mildly detracted by some unusual behavior; Akira frequently washes his hands and often avoids physical contact with others. He also has a difficult time holding down a job for reasons that seem like little more than coincidence or bad luck. Forced to run the occasional odd job for Omoikane Investigations in Okina, Akira's true home is in Sumaru, a city he holds an unusual fondness for. But by all accounts, he's just a young man with an odd name trying to get by like everyone else.

I am Typhon, beast of the Underworld, ushering you on your journey deeper into the crevasse..." The father of all monsters, Typhon was bred for one purpose alone; to kill the king of the gods, Zeus, for his imprisonment of the Titans. He knew only this cause, to enact this murder, although ultimately he was defeated by the lightning of the God, and trapped underground. There he festered, breeding children to in turn sow seeds of chaos, to spurn and destroy -- to kill. SENSE: The faintest feeling of trepidation, like being anxious about an upcoming event, or a fear of the unknown. The eerie feel of misfortune approaching, like a storm rolling in on a beautiful sunny day. Like a brush causing goosebumps, hair standing on end. SMELL: Like approaching rain with a hint of ozone and sulfur. SOUND: Hot winds rising from deep underground, the rumble of the earth, a storm on the horizon.. Trivia Akira Ookuma's kanji run like this: Akira (士) Ookuma (大熊). The former translates to 'gentleman,' and the latter to 'large bear.' Put that together and you can see why there are so many bear jokes. The name was given to him by Daisuke Itami, largely as a joke. His original name? Heiji Yamada. Akira has an aversion to blood; he hates getting it on himself. He never finished high school, dropping out due to an increase in apathy and the routine fights he was getting into. After Dark Social Links O - THE FOOL None I - THE MAGICIAN None II - THE HIGH PRIESTESS Benihime Asano - Someone who walked in and made herself known to Akira inside of Omoikane Investigations. After a long verbal joust, he's decided that the girl is much like himself; not what she appears to be. She also raised his ire, and that... will come back to haunt her at a later date. III - THE EMPRESS None IV - THE EMPEROR None V - THE HIEROPHANT None VI - THE LOVERS None VII - THE CHARIOT None VIII - JUSTICE None IX - THE HERMIT Noriko Ishibashi - Sister of Daisuke Itami, who Akira met what seems like a lifetime ago. They've yet to cross paths again, but it's only a matter of time, particularly if-and-or-when she finds out that the person who maimed her sister escaped from the Sanitarium. X - THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE None XI - STRENGTH None XII - THE HANGED MAN None XIII - DEATH None XVI - TEMPERANCE Akiha Ishibashi - Sister of Daisuke Itami. The two met for the first time at a karaoke parlor in Sumaru City. It did not end well for either party. XV - THE DEVIL Daisuke Itami - The Devil himself. The bane of Akira's existence. That he finds himself working for the man from time to time is... ridiculous, to say the least. The two go back a solid decade now, their paths having intertwined for better or worse. If Akira has his way, it'll be worse. XVI - THE TOWER None XVII - THE STAR None XVII - THE MOON None XIX - THE SUN None XX - JUDGMENT Nagisa Renge - She makes tasty food. The two have crossed paths several times, particularly in the early days when Akira was sleeping on the sofa inside of Omoikane. Those days have passed, however, and he believes the girl to be too besotted with Daisuke for her own good. But that's fine. They also share a game of making Daisuke's life more annoying. It's a good game, more people should join in. Logs and Cutscenes The Consequence of Pity: Taking it upon herself to check on the status of her "case" at Omoikane, Benihime happens across one of Itami's "employees." She proceeds to make great friends with the frequent new starter. Cast: Benihime Asano Soundtrack On The Ground by Andy Samberg / SNL
