Biography

Fortune favors the bold

Two weeks after the war had ended, Bang took the survivors of the Ikaruga war to the 13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi, their numbers being within the hundreds. There, Bang was writing a history textbook in his spare time, attempting to put together a list of the NOL's past transgressions which have been covered with their propaganda. The book detailed the formation of the organization in the Dark War up to the end of the Ikaruga Civil War and Tenjo's assassination.

He talked with the ninja about the Rettenjo before going back to help them build what would become the future district of Roningai - the new home of the Ikargua refugees and one of the few places where the NOL would not bother to enforce their rule. [1]

Central Fiction

With many others, Bang was taken inside the Embryo and became one of the chosen. His memories were altered so that he believed that Kagura was the Hero of Ikaruga, and that the date was 31/12/2199. He met Tao, who came to a distorted version of Roningai, and told him that she was self-graduating to no longer be his apprentice. Bang told her that it was too dangerous, his memories being altered so that he didn’t remember his friendship with the Grim Reaper. [2]

Helping an injured Ragna

Overhearing a battle in Roningai between Ragna and Carl, Bang arrived, and found Ragna, seriously injured from an attack by Nirvana. He took him to Litchi’s clinic where he discovered that the Grim Reaper has lost all recollection of who he was. Under Litchi’s orders, Bang began to investigate the NOL and how far along they were with the search for Ragna. [3]

His investigation led him to find Noel surveying the entrance to the Kaka Village, leading Bang to rush back to the others and warn them. [4] Litchi persuaded him to allow her to distract the lieutenant, but he ran back to her when he realised that Ragna was missing, making the lies Litchi had just told worthless as Noel was in earshot. He chased after Noel who was after Litchi for more information. [5] He eventually found Tsubaki talking to Litchi over Noel’s condition and was about to attack the soldier until Litchi stopped him, and he apologized. [6]

Much later on, Bang was transported to Ikaruga by Nine the Phantom and told to kill Izanami to claim his piece of the Azure – he found Ragna in a seriously wounded state, and tended to him. [7] He then filled him on the history of the distorted world and the Ikaruga Civil War. He took him to Akitsu, where they parted ways. [8] He was soon hunted down by Nu-13 as she wanted the Rettenjou. They battled but were interrupted by Nine herself; knowing he could not survive against both, Bang fled, being aided by Tao. [9]

Like the other chosen, Bang was told that by killing Noel, he could make his dream to restore Ikaruga come true. However, he believed that by killing her, he would become no better than the soldiers who brought his homeland to ruin. He was found by Ragna, who took his dream after a brief battle. [10]

Bang takes on Litchi’s burden

Tager contacted Bang and Tao, asking them to assist Litchi in finally taking down Arakune. They accepted, finding her in Kagutsuchi. There, they found the monster and began battling it, with Litchi telling the ninja that the real Roy’s soul lay deep in the Boundary. After watching Litchi being eaten and then spat out by Arakune, he knocked her out to stop her from killing it, unwilling to let her kill the man she loved – instead, he chose to bear this burden. He fought Arakune and nearly killed him until the monster, Litchi, and Tao all dissolved into seithr. [11] Bang eventually met this fate as well, and his data was backed up by Es.

In the new world created by Ragna, Bang was last seen rebuilding Ikaruga with his fellow ninja, giving a large shout of encouragement. [12]

Library Entry

Bang Shishigami

A man among men, who places above all, loyalty, sympathy and courage. He is the leader of his ninja clan, serving his master, Tenjo of the Ikaruga Federation.

The scar on his face was left by Jin of the NOL, during the Ikaruga Civil War. At the same time, Bang loses his one and only master, Lord Tenjo. Though filled with despair, he swore to himself that he would follow Lord Tenjo’s final words, ‘No matter what, do not hate the Librarium. Do not think of revenge.’ Thus, Bang focuses all of his energy on rescuing the refugees of Ikaruga.

He currently resides in what is known as Ronin-Gai of Kagutsuchi, planning the reconstruction of his motherland, Ikaruga. To raise the necessary funds for such a feat, as well as serve justice to the world, he becomes a ‘Vigilante,’ picking off bounties whenever he can. Now, he is after the most notorious of them all, Ragna.

His hit-blooded nature and over-the-top personality is hardly what one might expect from a ninja, but once in the heat of battle, he is quick on his feet and mind, never losing his cool, executing decisions with precision.

Upon hearing rumors of Tenjo’s true ‘heir’ from Valkenhayn, he sets off on a quest to find him. But during his quest he learns of Tenjo’s dying wish from Platinum, and accordingly heads for his true home, Ikaruga,

There, Bang learns that the 55’ Nail is in fact a Nox Nyctores – the Phoenix Rettenjo, and that there was still an unearthed conspiracy surrounding Tenjo’s death. [13]
