Movie
Description
Fifteen-year-old Fuko Kurasaki, a high school student, exists in the real world while her Burst Linker identity is Sky Raker in the Accelerated World. Born with a hereditary genetic defect causing the absence of her legs above the knees, she wears biocompatible prosthetic limbs usually hidden beneath high knee-socks. This condition arose during her mother's pregnancy; her parents chose to proceed with the birth, though Fuko harbored childhood resentment towards them. A Neurolinker monitored her health from infancy. A science-fiction novel encountered in elementary school, depicting children engineered for weightless environments, sparked a subconscious longing that later shaped her virtual avatar. She eventually forgot the book's title and specifics.
Sky Raker manifested Fuko's deepest wish for weightless movement. Her abilities centered on extraordinary jumping, augmented by the Enhanced Armament Gale Thruster jet pack, granting limited propulsion. This earned her recognition as the Burst Linker "closest to the sky" before meeting Silver Crow. Her avatar typically appears in a white dress and sun hat, often seated in an ornate wheelchair propelled by the Incarnate System. Feathers near her ears contribute to a Valkyrie-like appearance. Initially possessing legs, her obsession with achieving true flight led her to believe reducing her avatar's weight was necessary. She repeatedly requested Black Lotus amputate her legs below the knees. Black Lotus eventually complied, infusing the act with Incarnate energy imbued by her own sadness and anger, permanently preventing regeneration.
Sky Raker became a founding member and deputy leader of the Nega Nebulus legion, serving as the Air Element among the Four Elements. She wielded significant power, earning titles like "Astro," "ICBM," and "Icarus" through battles where she frequently humiliated rival deputies from other legions. She developed a rivalry with Prominence's Blood Leopard after defeating her. Her tactics included deploying Ardor Maiden directly into enemy formations during territory battles, leading to Ardor Maiden being jokingly called her personal equipment. Sky Raker also formed a deep, protective, yet obsessively affectionate bond with Ardor Maiden's real-world identity, Utai Shinomiya. Despite the amputation, she failed to achieve true flight, reaching only 300 meters maximum altitude. This failure, coupled with Nega Nebulus disbanding after a failed assault on the Imperial Palace that trapped three of the Four Elements, led to her retirement from dueling. She isolated herself atop the virtual Tokyo Tower in the Unlimited Neutral Field.
During isolation, she encountered Rin Kusakabe in the real world and imparted the Brain Burst program to her, becoming the "parent" of Ash Roller. She trained Ash Roller in Incarnate System basics. Later, learning of Silver Crow's flight capabilities and subsequent wing loss, Ash Roller facilitated a meeting. Sky Raker declined to restore his wings but offered to teach him the Incarnate System as an alternative path to flight. Her training involved pushing Silver Crow off the Tokyo Tower, forcing him to harness Incarnate abilities to climb back. After his success, she entrusted him with her Gale Thruster and later reunited with Kuroyukihime in the real world, rejoining the reformed Nega Nebulus.
A breakthrough occurred during the Hermes Cord Vertical Race. Silver Crow deduced Sky Raker's true potential lay not in atmospheric flight but in space travel, explaining her persistent limitations. Upon this realization, her legs spontaneously regenerated during the race. This resolved her longstanding psychological block and fulfilled her subconscious wish originating from the childhood novel.
In the events of "Infinite Burst," Sky Raker participates in a territory battle for Nega Nebulus alongside Ardor Maiden against members of Great Wall. The conflict is interrupted when a catastrophic storm engulfs the Accelerated World, disconnecting all Burst Linkers and disabling the Brain Burst application in the real world. This disruption originates from Nyx, an entity linked to an injured gymnast named Risa Tsukiori who inadvertently awakened it. Sky Raker joins the collective effort by Nega Nebulus and allied legions to confront the threat to the Brain Burst system, working to regain access and stop Nyx before the system becomes permanently sealed.
