Saguri-chan
CharacterThe Explorer Hero Saguri-chan wanders uncharted ground chasing her curiosity and catching villains along the way. A Team-Up Missions original who runs her own agency, she collects insects obsessively, which is how Minoru Mineta nearly ended up mounted on her wall.
Appearance
Long blonde hair gathered into a ponytail marks her out, and two bangs hang loose to frame her face. Her wide eyes carry a pinkish red tint.
The costume suits the job title. She wears a pale skintight bodysuit cut off at the thighs, belted in black, that belt continuing down into her boots. Shoulder pads in black are joined by a strap crossing beneath her chest, and satchels ride at her sides. Goggles finish the explorer look.
Personality
Her hero title is not decorative. Saguri-chan is described as roaming unmapped territory, following her curiosity wherever it leads and taking down villains as she goes.
Insects are her fixation. She collects them, and her knowledge runs genuinely deep: shown a forked osmeterium, she pinned it to one butterfly species on sight. That expertise has limits, since she still mistook Minoru Mineta for a bug.
History
Minoru and Hanta Sero drew a Team-Up Mission with her, and Minoru was eager enough about meeting her that he showed up early. He found her reading in her agency, and she promptly took him for an undiscovered insect species and trapped him. Hanta turned up and attempted to explain that his classmate was no insect, but she paid him no attention.
Minoru had no complaints about the situation until Saguri-chan produced an enormous bottle of alcohol, planning to preserve him and pin him up on display. He fled in terror, which she found disappointing. The mission wrapped up with Minoru carrying fresh trauma about female heroes.
