365 Days of Anime Characters: Day 244/365 Ikumi Oze

Day 244/365

Ikumi Oze

From the anime Infinite Ryvius, Ikumi Oze is a 16 year old boy who comes from a rich family but pretends that he doesn't. He is best friends with Kouji Aiba and they board the ship Ryvius together after training to become pilots on the space station Liebe Delta.

Why I like him: His past starts off as a huge mystery but as the show goes on it gets opened up greatly. He is but one of the many amazing characters in this show. He shows many sides that I admire. Including a "crazy loving" side. He does show great leadership and does anything he can to protect those that mean most to him.

Why I hate him: Not hate per-say honestly, I was saddened about his situation by the end of the series though.

Overall: Ryvius ends up stranded in space and the many children on board are left to find their own way back. I wasn't expecting much from this plot but all the characters were SO well done. Ikumi shines above them all for me because he shows many faces that lead to the uncertain.
