Description
Kogane Asabuki is a sixteen-year-old girl and a childhood friend of Azuma Kazuki. She lives in a post-apocalyptic Japan where giant sentient robots called Buranki dominate the landscape and a tyrannical figure named Reoko Banryu rules with her own Buranki, Entei. Ten years after Azuma left the country, Kogane is the one who rescues him from armed authorities upon his return, recognizing him immediately and bringing him into her circle. She is the user of a powerful Bubuki, a sentient weapon that forms a limb of the Buranki Oubu. Her Bubuki is known as Raijoudou, a sentient glove that can move and act on its own, which she affectionately calls Righty. As the controller of Oubu’s right arm, she is an essential member of the team assembled to reawaken the lost Buranki and fight against Reoko.
Kogane is determined, loyal, and quick to act, often taking a leading role within the group. Her primary motivation is to liberate the world from Reoko’s control and to uncover the truth behind the Buranki, a mission she shares with Azuma and the other Bubuki users. She has a strong sense of responsibility toward her teammates and is protective of Azuma, having waited for his return and believing in his importance as the Heart of Oubu. Over the course of the story, she demonstrates growth in her combat abilities and trust in her allies, learning to coordinate with others despite the various personalities in her team. Her key relationships include Azuma, whom she relies on as both a friend and a central figure; the other members of the Oubu team, such as Hiiragi Nono, Kinoa Ogi, and Shizuru Taneomi, with whom she develops camaraderie; and her Bubuki Righty, which she treats almost as a living partner. In battle, Kogane uses Raijoudou’s sentience to execute quick, flexible attacks, and her connection to Oubu gives her a critical role in assembling and controlling the giant robot during conflicts. Her unwavering resolve and courage make her a constant pillar for the group as they face increasingly dangerous opponents and uncover deeper secrets.
