Leona Ozaki is the central character of the anime New Dominion Tank Police. She is a young woman in her early twenties with auburn hair and light brown eyes, stands about five feet six inches tall, and is of Japanese heritage. Originally a motorcycle patrol officer, Leona transferred to the Newport City Tank Police, becoming the only woman in the squad. Her motivation stems from a strong belief that crime is a war and that overwhelming firepower is the only just response. She despises criminals and is convinced that the ends justify the means when enforcing the law. Leona is hot-headed, impulsive, and quick to anger, often applying excessive force to any situation and causing vast collateral damage during police actions. Her most defining trait is her obsessive devotion to her personal tank, which she named Bonaparte. She built Bonaparte together with her colleague Al from the wreckage of a tank she destroyed during her first chase. Any scratch or dent to the vehicle throws her into a rage, and she considers the tank her true love. This obsession stems partly from a desire to prove herself after her commanding officer, Captain Brenten, claimed that only men could truly love tanks. Leona lives at home with her mother and younger brother, though she prefers to spend her time at the Tank Police headquarters with Bonaparte. She has a close working relationship with Al, who harbors romantic feelings for her that she rarely acknowledges, and a competitive rivalry with Brenten, though she eventually earns his grudging respect. Over the course of the series, she matures from a reckless newcomer into a capable and accepted member of the team, though her zeal and destructive tendencies remain. Leona is an excellent tank driver and gunner, proficient with handguns and other firearms, and has training in close-quarters combat and urban warfare. She also possesses mechanical skills, maintaining and upgrading Bonaparte herself. Her abilities as a tactician are adequate, but she largely relies on overwhelming force rather than subtlety.
