Mukai is a supporting character in the anime Dragon Drive. He is the last surviving member of his clan, which was destroyed by an evil dragon named Gwonku. Only his mother and he remain. Mukai has a distinctive appearance: spiky green hair that curves upward, red markings on his forehead and under his eyes that may symbolize his clan, and slit pupils resembling those of a reptile, setting him apart from other humans.

His personality is initially quiet and reserved, and he is hesitant to engage in the Dragon Drive game. However, as he gains experience, he develops into a confident and assertive Dragon Driver who becomes a natural leader on the battlefield. He is deeply loyal to his dragon partner and prioritizes the safety and well-being of his companion above all else.

Mukai’s primary motivation is to protect what remains of his heritage and to fight alongside his dragon. His role in the story is that of a capable and determined ally, contributing to the larger conflict against the organization RI-ON and the dangers threatening both the world of Rikyu and Earth. He partners with a dragon named Shadow Fang, which is a powerful and skilled creature that complements Mukai’s own growth as a fighter.

Throughout the series, Mukai undergoes significant development. He overcomes his initial shyness and hesitation, learning to trust his teammates and becoming more outspoken and assertive. His journey from a reluctant participant to a formidable and reliable Dragon Driver is a key aspect of his character arc. In terms of abilities, Mukai is a highly skilled rider who commands Shadow Fang with precision, using the dragon’s strength and agility to overcome formidable opponents in battle.
