Many individuals think that Minato is somehow the key to foiling MBI's ultimate plans for the Sekirei. Because of this (and as a result of his living at the "Northern Hannya"'s location and therefore being seen as "allied" with her), he received the title "Northern Ashikabi" ( 北の葦牙, Kita no Ashikabi), with few using his given name as a result of Minato being falsely described as an Ashikabi with a "shady" background. Musubi, Kusano and Matsu were winged in the game's "First Stage", and Tsukiumi, Kazehana and Homura were winged in the "Second Stage", earning him recognition as the strongest Ashikabi in the northern part of the city. Minato has "winged" six Sekirei, each of whom physically reacted to him prior to winging, with the first five choosing him as their Ashikabi. It is later revealed that Hiroto Minaka, MBI's director and CEO, is Minato's natural father. Although many of his Ashikabi peers consider these actions cowardly, Minato finds that these traits endear his Sekirei to him even more. He often places himself in danger to protect his Sekirei from harm and avoids situations that pose a high risk of danger to prevent his Sekirei from fighting needlessly. Originally he has a passive and somewhat cowardly personality, but over time, due to the kindness, trust and love of his Sekirei and his desire to protect them, he becomes more confident. 0 Over the course of the story, he "wings" several Sekirei and they share a residence in Izumo Inn where he has his own room. After meeting Musubi at the start of the series, he becomes an Ashikabi. Minato's known family consists of: his mother Takami, his grandmother (whom Minato's mother stated could live another 100 years) and his younger sister Yukari. Minato Sahashi ( 佐橋 皆人, Sahashi Minato) is a high school graduate who had failed the college entrance exams twice. Voiced by: Shinnosuke Tachibana (Japanese) Joel McDonald (English) Minato Sahashi's Sekireis (from left to right): Musubi, Matsu, Homura, Kazehana, Kusano, and Tsukiumi. Sekirei characters have had mixed reception among the Japanese and international anime communities.
UZUME SEKIREI SERIES
New Sekirei and characters are also introduced in the media adaptations including the anime series and the video game series. Overseeing the Plan is a corporation called Mid Bio Informatics (MBI). Minato soon leads a team of Sekirei residing at Izumo Inn, a boarding house in the northern district of Teito, and must face opponents in the form of other Sekirei, many of whom have teamed with other Ashikabi and are spread throughout the other districts of Teito. He becomes her Ashikabi, a human with special genes that allow him to activate a Sekirei's powers through "winging", which is performed via a mouth-to-mouth kiss. The story centers on Minato Sahashi, a rōnin (high school graduate trying to get into college), who becomes involved with Musubi, one of 108 Sekirei: super-powered humanoids (predominantly beautiful women) with unique powers who must fight in a battle royal called the Sekirei Plan. Miya was the leader of the First Disciplinary Squad (known as the "S-Plan Guardians") and displayed the power to sink several large warships.The Sekirei manga features an extensive cast of characters created by Sakurako Gokurakuin. It is strongly implied that Miya is the strongest Sekirei, even referred to by #4 Karasuba as "another dimension". Does Uzume come back to life?īy series' end, Uzume is restored just as Minato promised, and is happily reunited with her Ashikabi. Miya stated that to a Sekirei losing the Sekirei Crest is equivalent of death. If that crest disappears, then the Sekirei is terminated and can no longer be with their Ashikabi. The Sekirei Crest is the symbol of the Sekirei that appears on the back of the neck of every Sekirei who has been winged. His sister is also an Ashikabi although Minato wasn't aware of this till the 4th match of the 3rd stage of the Sekirei Plan. Minato became an Ashikabi after being swept up in a battle between Sekireis and is currently the most powerful Ashikabi in the North sector of the city. If an Ashikabi dies or is killed, all Sekirei winged by him or her will also perish. In the series, the power of an Ashikabi can be determined not only by the number of Sekirei he or she has in his or her disposal, but by the bond between them.
