Spike-Chunsoft have shared no less than 16 character profiles for Master Detective Archives: Rain Code, the latest game from Kazutaka Kodaka (creator of the Danganronpa series).

Master Detectives

First, here’s some details about the Master Detectives and the World Detective Organization:

An extra-legal, extra-privileged organization devoted to eradicating the world’s unsolved mysteries. Their branches exist throughout the world, one of which is the Nocturnal Detective Agency in Kanai Ward. The key players in their activities are Master Detectives who possess Forensic Fortes, but ordinary detectives are also enlisted. Protagonist Yuma Kokohead suffers from amnesia. His background is unknown, but he was in possession of documents indicating that he was sent to Kanai Ward as a detective-in-training at the agency.

Aphex Logan

Zange Eraser

Desuhiko Thunderbolt

Halara Nightmare

  • Japanese VA: Yui Ishikawa

Pucci Lavmin

Fubuki Clockford

  • Japanese VA: Saori Onishi

Amaterasu Corporation

First, here’s some details about Amaterasu Corporation:

It deals in a wide variety of goods such as industrial products, electronic appliances, and pharmaceuticals, all of which can be found across all aspects of daily life. On the other hand, many dark rumors surround the company, leading to a saying among detectives: “Kick it and the dust comes off like a wall of smoke.” Despite that, both the government and the World Detective Organization have been unable to intervene because of its great influence.

Yomi Hellsmile (Director of the Amaterasu Corporation Peacekeepers)

  • Japanese VA: Yoshitsugu Matsuoka
  • English VA: Howard Wang

Martina Electro (Vice-Director of the Amaterasu Corporation Peacekeepers)

  • Japanese VA: Shizuka Itoh
  • English VA: Jenny Yokobori
  • Details: The vice director of the Amaterasu Corporation Peacekeepers. She is Yomi’s right hand and takes pride in the trust and affection he has for her. She has a coercive way with words and actions and has no mercy for those who defy her, becoming obedient only when Yomi is involved.
