Description
Makina Mikage is a 25-year-old freelance journalist driven to investigate rumors about Hyuga Corporation's classified "Marishi Machina" project, a powered suit using artificial muscle fibers and electronic interfaces to augment physical abilities. She suspects its link to groups of black-clad riders. Her personal quest stems from uncovering the truth about her missing father's involvement with the original Marishi Machina development team. This pursuit leads her to infiltrate Hyuga Corporation, initially tricking employee Dan Amo into revealing his company ID card to access restricted information, tying her persistence directly to her father's past work.
During her investigation at a Hyuga testing site, a prototype Machina suit unexpectedly reacts to a pendant left by her father, seizing control of her body and forcing her into a high-speed motorcycle chase on an MT-07 along the Shutoko expressway. Dan Amo intervenes, preventing disaster. This incident confirms her suspicions about the connection between the Machina suits, her father, and Hyuga Corporation's secrets.
Regaining consciousness, Makina confronts corporation chairman Mitsukuni Hyuga, demanding answers about the incident that claimed both her father and Dan's parents. She later accompanies Dan to Hyuga's underground facility at Mount Fuji's base, seeking clues to her father's whereabouts while supporting Dan's quest to find his mother, rumored to be in cold-sleep there. She encourages Dan to confront his related traumatic childhood experiences.
Makina exhibits a personality characterized as slightly arrogant and carefree, with rapidly shifting moods. She maintains interests outside journalism, including tea ceremony and music. She typically rides a Yamaha MT-07 motorcycle during investigations and pursuits.
