Aoba Tsuzaki

Voiced by: Fumiko Orikasa (Japanese, anime), Tae Okajima (Japanese, Re:Vision), Akane Tomonaga (Japanese, Resurrection), Mashiro Kazehana, (Japanese, Unlimited), Brittney Karbowski (English, anime)

The protagonist of the original Jinki manga and Jinki: Extend anime.

The Cameo: She makes a brief appearance near the end of Re:Vision.
Childhood Friends: With Ryouhei in the manga and the visual novels, in contrast to the anime adaptation where they appear to be strangers.
Childhood Friend Romance: During the original manga, she comes to realize her love for Ryouhei. And as one of the 3 heroines of Resurrection, she can potentially get together with him.
Kid Hero: She's 13 in the original manga and 16 in Extend. Averted in Resurrection, where she's 18.
Otaku: She absolutely loves plastic models of robots.
Red Baron: Her accomplishments in the original manga have led the resistance to dub her as the "Black-haired Valkyrie."
Sequel Non-Entity: She's absent from Relation.

Akao Hiiragi

Voiced by: Yuuna Inamura (Japanese, anime), Ryouko Tanaka (Japanese, Re:Vision), Saori Hayami (Japanese, drama CD), Ai Shimizu (Japanese, Resurrection), Rie Okamoto (Japanese, Unlimited), Jessica Boone (English, anime)

The protagonist of the Jinki: Extend manga and main heroine of the Re:Vision visual novel.

Amnesiac Hero: She doesn't remember anything from before 3 years ago, making her unaware of the original manga's events.
Contrasting Sequel Main Character: While Aoba had black hair and was quite excitable, Akao has light brown hair and is portrayed as being on the shy side.
Demoted to Extra: Due to the anime combining the stories of the two source manga together, Akao plays a more supporting role in favor of keeping the focus on original Jinki protagonist Aoba. Downplayed in Re:Vision, as while Akira is the one whose viewpoint the player sees, Akao is obviously the main heroine.
The Reveal: She's a clone of Akana Ogawara, Genta's late wife.

Retired Badass: His anime incarnation has already stopped being a pilot.
