Jin Russell

Jin Russel is a supporting character in the anime, manga, and light novel series Problem Children Are Coming From Another World, Aren't They?, also known simply as Problem Children or Mondaiji-tachi. Jin Russel is the leader of the No Name community, the main faction of the series, which the series' four protagonists, Izayoi Sakamaki, Asuka Kudō, and Yō Kasukabe, "Problem Children" with supernatural abilities, are summoned from alternate timelines to this fantasy world by Black Rabbit to try to re-establish. He is the leader at such a young age due to all the adults being enslaved by Demon Lords, responsible for stripping them of any glory, now the weakest of all communities. 
He is voiced by Kalin Coates in the English version, and Hiromi Igarashi in the Japanese version. 
==Biography==
===Background===
Jin Russell was born in the fantasy land known as Little Garden, into a community whose name has not been revealed. One day a Demon Lord attacked that community, and ridded it of any trace of glory. It's name and banner had been stripped, and the adult members were all enslaved. At 11 years old, he was automatically declared leader due to being the oldest, and the No Name community became the weakest community in all of Little Garden. 
Fortunately, a benevolent being with fearsome powers was kind enough to aid the No Name community, and treat them as if they were equals. Her name was Black Rabbit, and was the only member who wasn't a child. She was a magical Moon Rabbit, a beautiful human(oid) woman with bunny ears, who is actually 200 years old. One day, Black Rabbit summoned 3 human teenagers from 3 alternate dimensions. They were Izayoi Sakamaki, Asuka Kudō, and Yō Kasukabe, all with supernatural powers worthy for being summoned to Little Garden. 
===Plot===
After her surprise introduction was foiled by their keen senses, Black Rabbit quickly (and unfortunately) proves to the trio that she's really fun to tease, and they get a wholesome introduction to the concepts of Little Garden. She promises that they will have fun after showing them a demonstration of a Gift Game, which can be virtually anything. She then takes them to see Jin, but after getting there, she notices that Izayoi has gone missing. Asuka and Yō reveal that they let him go without telling her because they did not like him. She then transforms into her pink-haird super form to catch him, however far off he went. 
Jin takes the two girls to a cafe, where they meet Galdo Gasper. He tells them of how truthfully pathetic Jin Russel is, explaining the backstory of the clan. Jin sorrowfully looks downward, with a mix of negative emotions likely stirring in his head. However, to his surprise, Asuka refuses Galdo's offer to join his community despite her hearing the truth of how pathetic the No Names are. She then uses her ability, which is Authority, to get Galdo to tell her all of his secrets, revealing that they only appear better than the No Name community by various extreme, evil tactics. Galdo attempts to kill Asuka, but Yō then pins him down, now knowing he's a werecat. Jin was shocked. 
Elsewhere, Black Rabbit is flabbergasted by Izayoi's strength, to whom Black Rabbit confirms that the No Name community needs his, Asuka's, and Yō's help. Coming back to hear of the girls challenging Galdo to a deadly Gift Game where only one team makes it out alive, she puts faith in them because of Izayoi's strength. Izayoi says he isn't helping, and Black Rabbit, while concerned, sends them to a pawn shop owned by Shiroyasha, one of the strongest residents around. 
Jin followed them and lived off screen until they came back from Shiroyasha's pocket realm, where they learned more about their powers, called Gifts. They now stood a chance against Galdo Gasper, who they would fight tomorrow. The night before, when everyone should've been asleep, he awoke to Izayoi clashing with men from Galdo's community. Izayoi quickly comes up with the brilliant solution to make eleven year old Jin Russell the symbol of the No Names. Izayoi makes sure to get the point across that 
Jin would accompany them in their Gift Game, but later sulked about being useless, and Yō even got injured but Jin was powerless. Jin would also accompany them in their quest to save Leticia Draculea, one of Jin's friends and valued teammates, from Laius Perseus. All Jin could do was watch as Izayoi swept the floor with Perseus and his gorgon, Algol. His power flabbergasted the likes of himself as well as Black Rabbit, especially after seeing him having the ability to nullify gifts, when Izayoi smashed Algol's petrification beam while saying "I don't run from anything!". 
In the second part of the series, Jin complies with the Problem Children's desire to go to Salamandra, with questionable enthusiasm. They had stolen a letter that Black Rabbit hid from them, and sent a letter to her as a part of a "game", stating that if she didn't catch them in time, they'd leave the community. Despite Jin leading them to Shiroyasha, who could teleport them there, Black Rabbit caught up, and Jin witnessed Izayoi and Black Rabbit play a divine game of tag, that ended in the destruction of an entire building, though no civilians were harmed. They were ruled by authorities to be subject to Sandora's punishment, only for Jin to have an excited conversation with her, as Sandora was around the same age as Jin and apparently the two were good friends. Sandora's bodyguard become enraged at Jin earning the queen's favor for no good reason, and attempts to kill him, an attempt that Izayoi effortlessly thwarts. 
Shiroyasha recites a prophecy that states that Demon Lords will attack during the festival that Yō is participating in. Until then, Jin hangs out with the Problem Children and Black Rabbit, and takes up the reins to keep the girls from getting agitated at Izayoi's perversion. Similarly to how the other Gift Games turned out, Jin wasn't able to assist. But when Black Rabbit uses her Judge Master Gift to formalize a trial regarding the validity of the Gift Game, Jin was part of the discussion with Black Percher (AKA Pest) and her two subordinates Weser and Ratten, the trio being called the Grimm Grimoire. With Izayoi defeating Weser and Asuka defeating Ratten with the help of her mech, Deen, given to her by her fairy she met in Salamandra, Black Rabbit, Izayoi, and Asuka teamed up to defeat the incredibly powerful plague spreader Black Percher. Yō was unable to assist due to having the plague that was spread throughout Salamandra by Pest. But following Pest's defeat, they regrow farmland for the No Names.
