Remi Puguna, vice-captain of the firefighting unit Burning Rescue, acts as Captain Ignis’ trusted advisor. Maintaining a calm demeanor and sharp intellect, he communicates with blunt directness, unafraid to voice opinions. His distinctive appearance sports mint-green bowl-cut hair, square black glasses, and a medium build, clad in the team’s signature red-and-yellow uniform featuring slimmer pants than his peers.
In the *Galo-hen* OVA, Remi joins recruitment talks with Ignis and Governor Kray Foresight, voicing skepticism over Galo Thymos’ inexperience. During Galo’s induction, he openly challenges Kray’s endorsement of the rookie, sparking tension. This skepticism shifts after observing Galo’s daring rescue of Burnish survivor Thyma mid-mission, gradually earning Remi’s trust.
Throughout pivotal events, Remi participates in critical firefighting operations—responding to Foresight Pharmaceutical’s assault, helping subdue Mad Burnish leader Lio Fotia, and collaborating with teammates to question systemic Burnish oppression over post-mission pizza. When Galo faces arrest, Remi’s analytical nature surfaces as he scrutinizes the charges’ validity. During Kray’s climactic siege, he coordinates from Burning Rescue’s truck, aiding citywide defense efforts.
His dynamic with Ignis hinges on mutual respect and collaborative decision-making. Though initially critical of Galo’s impulsivity, their rapport evolves into cautious trust. Personal details hint at a girlfriend through locker photos, with a 2019 panel playfully attributing her absence to an unexplained crocodile transformation—a background quirk absent from official narratives.
Remi’s role centers on strategic oversight and operational coordination, blending intellect with pragmatic teamwork. His steadfastly pragmatic presence remains a constant across missions, reinforcing his reliability within Burning Rescue’s ranks.
