Joe Asakura, known as G-2 or Joe the Condor, serves as the Science Ninja Team’s second-in-command, combining his role as their premier marksman and weapons specialist with a combat style mirroring the condor’s precision and ferocity. Fueled by a thirst for vengeance against Galactor for orchestrating his parents’ deaths, his impulsive nature and relentless drive define his approach to both battle and life. His appearance reflects his rugged demeanor: shoulder-length hair shifting between mousy brown and ash blonde frames a face marked by angular, weathered features, contrasting his teammates’ softer lines. Piercing blue eyes underscore his intensity. In civilian attire, he favors a red-and-blue "2"-emblazoned t-shirt paired with blue bell-bottom jeans, often accessorized with black driving gloves. Later updates to his wardrobe introduce a navy blue crew-neck shirt with lighter blue sleeves and straight-legged jeans. His Bird Style suit, a deep burgundy ensemble, features dark blue gloves, boots, and a bi-toned feathered cape—deep blue exterior, lighter interior—alongside a black helmet adorned with crimson condor-inspired eye and beak motifs, completed by a light violet-grey visor. Born George Asakura to former Galactor agents Giuseppe and Katarina, he survived their doomed defection attempt, rescued by Dr. Nambu, who concealed his identity to protect him from retaliation. Raised as Joe and trained in Science Ninja techniques, he initially remained oblivious to his parents’ Galactor ties, a truth later revealed to him. This duality—legacy versus loyalty—shapes his resolve. Strategically unyielding, Joe prioritizes decisive action over deliberation, excelling as the team’s hit-and-run tactician and unparalleled sharpshooter. His vendetta against Galactor anchors his purpose, yet his journey evolves as he confronts his heritage and the ramifications of a near-fatal injury. Rebuilt as a cyborg by Dr. Rafael, his augmented physique grants heightened strength and resilience but sparks existential turmoil, challenging his perception of humanity. Despite this internal strife, he persists in safeguarding his comrades and dismantling Galactor, balancing duty with self-identity. Defined by impulsivity, an unwavering moral code, and a fierce commitment to justice, Joe’s expertise with firearms cements his tactical indispensability. Though often solitary, his dynamic rapport with Ken oscillates between rivalry and camaraderie, reflecting shared burdens of leadership. His arc intertwines reckoning with a fractured past, adapting to mechanized existence, and upholding his mission without surrendering the essence of who he is.
