Sorry I took so long to do these... I was busy with exams, and after those, I was busy with DDS2. :P

Victor
Occupation: Head of the Demon Fusing Facility 'Gouma Shingari'(Or a more direct translation would be Karma Palace)
Age: Unknown(it is rumoured that he is over 100 years old)
A genius scientist with a burning passion for the creation of life.
After wandering in many countries, he travelled to Japan in the Far East.
Currently, he is continuing research in the Teito(Imperial Capital) without anybody's disturbance.
As a result, he invented a ritual for 'Demon Fusion'.
He mantains a 'give and take' relationship with the Devil Summoners who provide him with subjects for his research.

Daidouji Kaya
Occupation: 1st year student of the Sakuraran Girl's Institute
Age: 15
The only daughter of the ancient Daidouji family.
She grew up in one of the prominent wealthy families in Teito, and is studying in the Sakuraran Girl's Institute.
Her quiet and calm, gentle personality makes her admired by her servants and schoolmates.
However, the lineage of the Daidouji Family hides an important secret that becomes the case trigger this time around.
She is a key person in the story for this game.

Do you guys want more info on the system? :o

Hm... this is how I understand it, it might not be very correct.

Fake Serph was the first ideal Serph that Sera created to overcome her lonliness. After her imaginary world was discovered, the data created was brought over to the Asura Project and either re-used to make AI Serph, or AI Serph was made from scratch. I personally think that the data was re-used, because AI Serph clearly had memories of the stuff in the imaginary world. Like 'ship', for instance.

ROFL, I checked the site earlier today and they hadn't updated, and I was all, 'You lied to me!!!' XD; Thanks for the info! I'll be doing more info if I can... I seriously have no time to do anything these days. T^T Anyways, thanks for the info on Kaya! ^^ I like her look... she's less sinister than most designs I've come across recently. ^^ I guess I'll have more to say after I read the character descriptions, but why did they not put up Gouto's? T^T

I don't think radiokill was saying that Victor healed your party in Soul Hackers, instead was saying Victor healed your party in Devil Summoner.

True that. :D For those who've played Soul Hackers, does he look like the original Victor?

WOWOWOWOW THANKS FOR ALL THE SCANS!! XDDD

This Victor(Vikutoru) guy, he has the same name as the guy in Soul Hackers who was dressed like a captain(that's what it says, except the captain guy is Bikutoru). And he's whom you go to to fuse your demons and get your party healed(ah more demon fusing! I'm gonna like this game).

And Gouto, the cat(AHHH another talking cat!!), seems to be a sort of adviser for Raidou? It says he(it) seems to know about the original Raidou. :o I'm hoping that the next update on the site will have new profiles for these characters.

I am so loving Raidou's character art(even though he has weird sideburns), thank you so much again for the scans. T^T In the earlier scans, they don't reveal much that we don't already know, except that Narumi seems to have been attacked by the soldiers they introduced in the previous issue, and that Tae and the others seem to not see the demons that Raidou summons. :o

In RL, I'd choose Freedom, because the other Reasons rid the Earth of things that I enjoy and couldn't live without.

But in-game, I chose True Demon, because hell that was the best ending ever. XD

In my opinion their stats are more or less the same, in the end it will all depend on who you like better... much as I liked Roald, I chose Heat because I wanted a complete Embryon party in the final battle. :P Plus... I liked Heat a lot more in the 2nd game. ^^

I really like the kuzunoha back story and the 4 main devil summoners who formed it :D. I wanna learn about the other 3 as well as the original Kuzunoha Raidou XD

Yes, I want to know more about them as well. :o And more about the history of the Kuzunoha clan, seeing as they've been around for so long... I also want to know, does Raidou take over Narumi Detective Agency in the end? XD; Since there's a Kuzunoha Detective Agency in previous games. :P I also want to know about that cat that's always following Raidou about in the preview... is it his pet? I would email and ask that question for them to answer in the special corner if my Japanese program was working D8

You're all welcome, XD Actually I'd love to do the special corners too when I have the time... the next update is on the 9th of September, I hope they give us more characters!!

Haha, why didn't you go first? ^^; Anyways, I will. I'm 18. :o

[Narumi]

Narumi
Occupation: Chief of Narumi Detective Agency
Age: Early 30s
He runs the Narumi Detective Agency which specialises in cases relating to the occult. It's located in a building called Ginroukaku in the Imperial Capital. He is Raidou's boss.
His motto is to be cheerful and aloof, and live carefreely.
Hence, he normally shows conduct such as letting Raidou do most of the work, and being particular to accepting jobs depending on how much the offer is.
However, he cannot overlook people in difficulty, and opposes people who take advantage of weak people for their own benefit with passion.
Furthermore, he has a surprising personal history, and has connections within the military and government.

Asakura Tae (Kichou)
Occupation: Reporter for the Teito Shinbou(Imperial Capital Newspaper)
Age: Early 20s
A female reporter working for the Teito Shinbou.
In the Taisho Era where females are treated with discrimination, she opposes this and with her competitive personality, she aims for the elevation of female status.
For luck(not too sure about this), she uses the handle Kichou because she looks up to Hirazuka Raichou(a more practical use is for circumstances where it'd be beneficial for others to not know her gender clearly).
Unlike most of the news reporters in the Taisho Era who employ youngsters to collect news and information for them, she goes to the actual scene herself to collect data, forming the modernistic method of producing her articles.
However, to avoid misunderstandings with prejudiced people, she personally wishes others not to call her 'Kichou-san' but 'Tae-chan', because it's more friendly. She is a charming and courteous person.
Other than being a reporter, she is also aiming to be an author of non-fictional folklore. For that purpose she pursues connections with bizzare events happening in towns or those relating to folklore. In the process, she came to frequent Narumi Detective Agency.

Wow such interesting info thanks! If you can do Narumi and Tae that would be amazing too *_* and I think the name of the high school is "Teito High School"? or I could be wrong XD

Hehe, teito is the pronunciation for Imperial Capital... anyways, I surfed around today and found the name. Yudzukinokimi... I thought it would be 'yumitsuki' or 'kyugetsu' but I looked around and it was Yudzuki. According to some history text, Yudzukinokimi is the supposed ancestor of Hatashi and descendant of Chin Tse Huang.

Oh, so that explained the Kanji in the parenthesis? Thanks for clarifying that. Kichou/Raichou...D:

Huh? :o I'm not so sure what you mean, but Tae's handle is Kichou while she looks up to a person called Raichou. The 'chou' part is similar. ^^

Yay, I hope you can get more infos, Argilla! XD Oh, by the way, Tae uses the handle Kichou also because she looks up to Hirazuka Raichou(pronunciation?)... but one of the uses is that blurry-gender use.

[Kuzunoha Raidou]

I'll do Raidou's first. Feel free to correct anything wrong.

Kuzunoha Raidou
Occupation: Devil Summoner (apprentice detective)
Age: 17
The protagonist of this game, a boy who inherited the title 'Kuzunoha Raidou the 14th', he has the task of protecting the Imperial Capital.
Under the cloak that envelopes his body, he carries his(trusty) sword and gun, and a tube to collect demons.
He works in Narumi Detective Agency as an apprentice, and collects info from various places all over the Imperial Capital. Whever a case is linked with demons, he takes care of it with his role of Devil Summoner.
He is a student in 'Yudzukinokimi Koutou Shihan Gakkou'(Shihan Gakkou means Normal School and it's a school where students are trained to be teaching staff) located in the Imperial Capital. His name 'Raidou', originated from one of the '4 Devil Summoners' who helped form the Kuzunoha clan which existed from long ago with the original forefinders. The Kuzunoha clan only gives the names of one of the 4 Devil Summoners to the member with the most ability in that generation(so Raidou isn't his real name).

Info not in his profile:
There is a black cat always following him about.
In the special corner on the official site, Kazuma said that Raidou never takes his hat off even in the bath, and he still wears his cloak in the summer(to keep his weapons concealed). ^^;

Yea, it's quirkly style is what attracted me to the game but I wasn't sure if it was worth a play. A lot of people seem to love it and say it's quite addicting but then there are those who say it's nothing but you rolling up random objects. I think I'll be the judge of that though...

The rolling part made me so dizzy I couldn't pick the game up again after the first try. T^T

I'm awaiting DDS2, DS: Kuzunoha Raidou, and KH2.

I thought this was a ninja, haha.
