more characters from my story gunshin. from clockwise upper left:
the chef - the chef never gets named but works at the debuneko, which is sort of a ramen stand open along a side street of a market. yuji eats there often. he refuses to speak english unless forced, but seems to be quite knowledgible
sophi - suleiman's niece, former girlfriend of yuji's, was an innocent by-stander that was attacked by the kidoutai during a riot, thought to be dead
brixton - a new member of kidoutai's elite covert force, ordered to follow & 'deal with' yuji & his associates. isn't all bad; in search of physical & mental perfection
sapporo - yuji's older brother. died when yuji was very young, but basically raised him till that point. taught him sword skills & how to survive in the city, though pretty feeble himself
