Description
Dr. Ravu, whose full name is Taklamakan Strange Love, is a central figure in the story and a self-proclaimed super-genius scientist with a documented history of remarkable achievements. His most defining background detail is his immense age, having lived for over five hundred years. He maintains a youthful, unassuming appearance through a sophisticated scientific process known as "body reconstruction," which he performs on himself whenever his physical form reaches its limits. Physically, he presents as a young man with blue hair and blue eyes, standing 170 centimeters tall and weighing 61 kilograms. His birthday is May 31st, and his blood type is B.

Regarding his personality, Dr. Ravu is primarily characterized by an intense and obsessive passion for science and research, which drives most of his actions. He possesses an insatiable curiosity, particularly for unusual life forms and biological functions, which he has a strong desire to examine and touch directly. While this stems from a purely scientific interest, his enthusiasm often overrides social boundaries and a sense of shame, leading him to engage in inappropriate physical contact with others. This behavior has led his colleagues, particularly Chuta and Misuzu, to label him as a pervert. Despite his genius-level intellect, he can occasionally be absent-minded or thoughtless, sometimes causing problems without realizing it until later. He has a noted dislike for being subjected to violence without reason, though he is often self-aware enough to admit when he is at fault.

His primary motivation is the advancement of scientific knowledge, specifically in the fields of SPH energy and symbiont research, which are core concepts of the world he inhabits. He was the developer in charge of the prominent "Taklamakan Project," and his groundbreaking scientific accomplishments have led to him being regarded as either a god or a demon on some planets, adding a layer of legendary mystique to his character. Within the narrative, Dr. Ravu serves as a crucial technological and intellectual pillar for the main cast. After being rescued by the protagonist, Chuta Kokonose, and his partner, Dolugh, he decides to station himself at the Solar System Branch of the organization. From there, he acts as a technical advisor, researcher, and strategist for the team.

In terms of key relationships, he develops a close working relationship with both Chuta and Dolugh, taking a particular interest in their unique abilities and dedicating his efforts to studying and supporting them. He also works alongside other main characters like Veronica Borowczyk. In one of the story arcs, he assumes the alias "Taklamakan Kan Ainotsuke" and enrolls in a middle school on Earth alongside several other characters to experience ordinary life, though he shows little enthusiasm for the alias, often forgetting it himself. His role in the story is not just passive support; he actively uses his intellect to help solve problems. For instance, he helps Chuta expose a spy's identity by drawing an unconventional historical parallel to the methods used by ninjas, showcasing his unique and often unexpected thought processes.

Dr. Ravu's notable abilities are all rooted in his vast scientific knowledge, which spans biology, mechanical engineering, SPH energy, and symbiont technology. His most remarkable personal ability is the aforementioned body reconstruction, which allows him to rejuvenate himself and effectively live for centuries, effectively cheating death through technology. As a scientist, he is an inventor of numerous cutting-edge devices and uses them for his own defense, as he prefers not to travel with bodyguards. He also has multiple decoys on Earth to hide his true activities. While he is largely unchanging in his core motivations and personality, his development is shown through his increasing integration with the team at the Solar System Branch. He transitions from being a legendary, almost mythical figure to a reliable, if eccentric, ally and mentor figure, using his unique perspective and scientific genius to guide the younger protagonists through their challenges.
