Taruga | According to himself, half of his body was blown away from the nuclear explosion. As such, he had to get mechanical implants to survive. After that, Taruga's father was apparently killed by Nadai to keep the secret of Sphere City safe. He hatched an idea to get revenge against him, and joined forces with Lyra and Jagre, all of whom also had their fathers killed to keep the secret. Once Taruga joined Kyo-Oh's army, he kept watch over Eden. However during Jagi's showdown with Kenshiro, he notices Nadai using Kyo-Oh's Meito Kieiken. And as such, finally found out about Kyo-Oh's identity; he is Nadai. After Sphere City opens up, he, Lyra and Jagre ambush Nadai and Kisana. However as Jagre steps down from shooting Kisana, Taruga reveals his true plan; he wants to take over Sphere City and use the nukes to destroy the world, making himself a God. He then betrays Lyra and Jagre, shooting them both. Nadai strikes at him, but he escapes into Sphere City, launching his minions after Kenshiro who pursues him. Once Kenshiro arrives at Yuria's resting place, he has his final battle with Taruga. Despite proclaiming himself as a god, he is taken out by Kenshiro, and his body tumbles down the dome's side to the deep ground bellow. | ||
