Maria Isshiki, a determined journalist tasked with chronicling Inspector Zenigata’s investigations, carries a fractured past shaped by her father’s murder at the hands of Michael Suzuki—a crime meant to bury unethical genetic experiments. Surviving a life-altering surgery after his death, Maria unknowingly gained fragmented precognitive abilities through genetic alterations, experiencing sudden, involuntary visions of imminent threats to herself or others. Her assignment intertwines with Zenigata’s pursuit of Suzuki, unraveling ties between her father’s research and Suzuki’s clandestine super-soldier projects, which exploit Maria’s modified DNA. Though erratic, her foresight proves invaluable to Zenigata during clashes with Lupin III, offering glimpses of ambushes or disasters moments before they unfold. Maria increasingly views Zenigata through the lens of her lost father, noting their shared relentless pursuit of justice. This bond fuels her drive to dismantle Suzuki’s operations, including staged kidnappings and hostage crises masking illegal cloning trials. Partnering with Zenigata and Lupin’s crew, she confronts Suzuki, ensuring his arrest while thwarting the weaponization of her genetic legacy. Her journey closes with Suzuki’s defeat, avenging her father and neutralizing the threat of her exploited DNA. The connection with Zenigata solidifies as one of unwavering respect and familial kinship, with Maria firmly framing their bond as platonic, rooted in paternal echoes rather than romance.
