Appearance

Ajiz never truly steps into frame and exists only through conversation, so the series offers no picture of him at all. Even the accepted spelling of his name traces back to the English subtitles rather than any on-screen credit.

Personality

He registers as little more than an elusive bounty, slippery enough to shake off an experienced crew, though the story stops short of giving him any real character beyond that escape.

History

The team aboard the Bebop hunts Ajiz on Mars but is forced to let him get away. When they later travel to Earth, Edward combs through the ship's data and turns up the failed chase, using it as proof that she already knows everything about the crew she has attached herself to. The reference falls within the events of Jamming With Edward.
