"Fire Force," currently serialized in Weekly Shonen Magazine, is a battle fantasy about the mysterious phenomenon of spontaneous spontaneous combustion. The protagonist, Shinra Kusakabe, is a "third-generation" supernatural power user who uses his powers to pursue the truth alongside his fellow members of Special Fire Force Company 8! This article introduces new characters who will likely appear in the second season of the "Fire Force" anime, scheduled to air in summer 2020.
Inka Kasugatani
The fifth woman to possess an Adolla Burst. She survived the great disaster two years ago by awakening her ability to predict fires. After that, she began working as an "opportunistic robber," using her precognitive abilities to help people at fires in exchange for large sums of money. One day, she predicted a large number of fires and was with her fellow robbers, Sancho and Panda, when they were targeted by the men in white robes.
Inca, by the way, is able to predict fires because she senses the scent of danger as a line. Furthermore, after coming into contact with the men in white robes, she begins to see the words "START" and "GOAL" at the beginning and end of the line, awakening the ability to trace them and cause violent fires.
Amaterasu
The first woman to possess the Adolla Burst. She is contained within "Amaterasu," which generates the energy that supports the Tokyo Empire. The woman known as "Amaterasu" used the Adolla Link to intervene in Shinra's consciousness, tempting him to meet his mother and taking over his body. Incidentally, she looks so similar to Sister Iris that Shinra momentarily mistakes her for the 8th Sister.
Takeru Noto
A second-class firefighter with Special Fire Force 2, a classmate of Shinra and Arthur. A third-generation ability user, she can transform flames into weapons such as missiles for attack. Originally from the Chinese peninsula, her family grew up in potato farming. A timid boy with little confidence, affectionately nicknamed "Juggernaut" by those around him. Because he wears extremely thick clothing, he's often unharmed even when attacked on parts of his body.
Ogun Montgomery
A second-class firefighter with Special Fire Force Company 4, he was Shinra's classmate at training school and achieved top marks. A third-generation esper, he can enhance his physical abilities using tattoos that increase his body's thermal energy. He is characterized by his tanned skin and dreadlocks.
Paat Co. Pan
The company commander of Special Fire Force Company 4, he became the battalion commander after the death of Soichiro Arg. A third-generation ability user, he can send heat to others by blowing the whistle he always wears around his neck, granting them various buffs.
Shovel
A mole who speaks the language of the people he encountered on the Chinese Peninsula. He devoured Juggernaut's potato patch, but he guided Shinra and his friends around the Chinese Peninsula. He has a strong attachment to his hometown, but he returns to Shinra in Tokyo Empire to tell him something.
Nataku's Grandson
He is a compatible Mushi discovered by Rekka Seimiya, and the sixth Pillar to possess an Adolla Burst. Since awakening to his pyrokinesis ability, he has been at Haijima Heavy Industries, the research facility for children with special abilities where Shinra was raised. He is a promising youngster, achieving excellent results in various experiments at the facility.
His father is a doctor, and he grew up in a respectable family. His mother constantly encouraged him to excel. Furthermore, Rekka said some very harsh words to him when he was infected with the Mushi, so he strongly believes that he must be a capable child.
Yuichiro Kurono
He is the head of the research facility at Haijima Heavy Industries. He has been working with children on their research since Shinra was at the facility, and is nicknamed "Uncle Shinigami." He loves to bully the weak, and at the research facility, he tortures children with his harsh experiments.
He is a third-generation ability user with proven abilities, but he suffers from "Ash Disease," a condition caused by overuse of his pyrokinesis ability. Even at the research facility, he only listens to the orders of his two superiors. He wants children to remain weak, so he is a comfortable presence for Nataku.
Ritsu
A member of the Evangelist faction and the Guardian of Inca. She is a woman with long bangs and an unreadable expression. A third-generation ability user, she can manipulate corpses to attack. Using pyrokinesis, she absorbed Nataku into a giant Flamebito.
Greo Haijima
The current president of Haijima Heavy Industries. He is the one who sent Licht to the 8th as a spy, but he is a terrifying character who is suspicious of him and is considering killing him. With Shinra holding an Adolla Burst, Amaterasu revealed that someone with an Adolla Burst was inside and that they were seeking Adolla Bursts to fuel it.
