## History

### Background

Asagi was born in the year **2049**, into the Igawa clan. Her father, Igawa Shuzen, was the clan head and her grandmother, Hattori Seishu, one of the elders. Her mother, Igawa Kiku, died of illness shortly after the birth of Asagi's younger sister, Sakura.

Asagi was trained by her father to fight with a sword and awoke early on to her Ninja Art. Thanks to her talent and tenacity, it became clear early on that she had the potential to become the strongest Taimanin in modern times. She became friends with many of her seniors, like the one year older Shiranui, a true Taimanin elite; the Taimanin Kuro, that would later on become her right-hand man, and Murasaki, which Asagi promised to marry as a joke, something Murasaki never took as such and became her biggest fan. Asagi also had another mentor (in the RPGX/Action Taimanin timeline at least, unless he also exists in other timelines and had a similar role), the highly skilled Toyo, and formed a very close friendship with the lesser ranked Kyousuke who was a member of a sub-clan of the Igawa. However, Asagi was also highly rebellious and arrogant, distrustful of the unification of Taimanin Clans and the Fuuma clan, which lead Gosha Village at the time, with her working more independently.

Chronologically around **2067** in TK, after the disappearance of Kurenai, thanks to Fuuma clan corruption. Asagi was introduced by one of the "Igawa Elder", to Yamamoto Nobushige of Section Three of the Japanese Government. Asagi, voiced that her father still was far more wise, but Yamamoto became impressed by her skill and the Igawa. As the Fuuma clan's corruption became harder to ignore, the Igawa clan was eventually put in charge. However, the Fuuma clan, under Taimanin Captain Fuuma Danjo, would not allow so and started a revolt of their own. Trying to take over the village by force, Asagi defeated Danjo but stopped also her own clan from enacting vengeance against the clan as a whole. Asagi, remained distrustful that unification was possible and remained distant.

Her father became second Taimanin Captain, but died in the line of duty the same year he was officially appointed in 2068. Asagi, returned and took up his sword but at first refused to use it, preferring to fight with her legs until she couldn't take matters lightly anymore. In RPGX continuity, her father's death was the result of the Igawa Revolt, in which some of the Igawa Elders, including Asagi's grandmother Seishu and aunt Igawa Senshu, murdered him. The Revolt Group tried to also take Asagi's life but was pushed back thanks to the efforts Shiranui and Kuro, as well as the support of the Koukawa Oboro, and thankful leftovers of the Fuuma clan. Asagi defeated Seishu herself, which ended the Igawa Revolt, with the help of Mizuki clan, Yatsu clan, Koukawa clan and Fuuma clan. These events probably also occurred in other continuities. In the aftermath, Asagi befriended the clan leader, Koukawa Oboro and Mizuki Shiranui, and became herself the clan head of the Igawa, while looking after her much younger sister.

Nonetheless, peace was short-lived as tragedy occurred. The Koukawa clan was mysteriously massacred by Nomad and Edwin Black. Nomad, was a large international criminal organization, which was led by Black, the secret Vampire King. Asagi adopted one of the clan survivors but because of some difficulties left her in the care of the Yatsu clan. However, "Oboro" returned but was changed, now having joined the Nomads side. She formed the Oboro Ninja Troops, a group that became notorious in the criminal underworld. Using the ONT, as a proxy group, Nomad was able to attack the Taimanin and with Oboro's strength almost nobody was able to fight her, as Shiranui and others were retired at this point or had died.

Asagi was at this point 20 years old, in the year **2069**. In the prologue of TA1, many Taimanin had died during the ensuing ONT Conflict, in which Oboro and their ninja had slaughtered many veteran Taimanin in ambushes. The conflict came to a brutal conclusion, when Asagi confronted Oboro, 3 years before TA1, and killed the crazed former ally in Tokyo. However, Nomad itself escaped all responsibility, which frustrated Asagi. Even after all the conflict, which probably shocked her, no action of the government was taken. Asagi refused to take up the mantle as proper clan head, as well as Taimanin Captain, and retired. Asagi, had also left Koukawa Asuka a survivor of the Koukawa Massacre under the protection of the serving Yatsu clan, protecting her from the suspicions of the village regarding Oboro.

Though feeling some shame for this, Asagi would prefer to live with the love of her life, her childhood friend Sawaki Kyousuke. He was not that long ago excommunicated from the Taimanin, as he was unable to awaken a Ninja Art. As a result, together with her sister and fiancé, the three lived in Tokyo, near a small Dojo of an Igawa-owned house in, where they spend the next 3 years living.

### Story

Asagi was now 23, in the year **2072**. Her sister, Igawa Sakura, that looked up to her, had trained in secret to become a Taimanin. Though she lacked the formal training, she had awoken to a Ninja Art, a fact she kept secret. Asagi, was not delighted that her sister now wanted to be a Taimanin and initially rejected the idea. Though, Asagi felt like a traitor for being happy with Kyousuke and expected to be married soon, which felt unreal to her at times. This personal peace was broken when Asagi was unexpectedly contacted by the "Igawa Elder" years later, who had taken the position of clan head after Asagi retired. The elder informed her that Oboro had returned to life and was already starting to kill Taimanin again (TA1). Asagi took Sakura on a short information gathering mission, and they learned from the orc shopkeeper Byg, that Oboro acted as the master of an illegal fighting ring, the Chaos Arena. At this point, Kyousuke hinted he would propose to Asagi, but wasn't able to tell her the news because he had gone to help a relative, unknowingly falling into a trap. When Asagi returned home, she was greeted by Kyousuke, but as he was talking about their engagement, his body started to transform into Oboro. Her body revived by demonic cells from a tumor on Kyousuke, which caused him to be fully absorbed into her. Oboro also displayed a new power, she obtained after their last fight, a new Ninja Art which could control movements.

Asagi was captured and forced to fight in the Chaos Arena, her body was tortured but this had little effect on the skilled warrior. Because of that Oboro changed tactics and used humiliations and lust to break Asagi. What Oboro was doing so seemed to be as simple as revenge, but for both the Igawa Elder and Edwin Black, which worked together behind the scenes, there was more planned.
Asagi's sister, Sakura was also lured into a trap when she tried to free her sister alone and was defeated by Oboro. At this point, Byg is revealed also be working together with Oboro and Nomad. Both Asagi and Sakura's bodies were modified to increase their sensitivity by 3000 times, made possible by the Demon World technology of Kiryu Sabato. Losing in the Chaos arena, thanks to Oboro's new Ninja Art, and being constantly humiliated and sexually abused by hordes of monsters and humans, including Masked Woman, Power Lady, and Byg; the sister's mind and will was pushed to the limit. In TA Chaos Arena and TA The Nightmare, additional scenes between Asagi and Snake Lady (Kaliya), show also that Asagi was tricked by Sabato at times, which pushed her even further to the edge.

Black wished to awaken something in Asagi, but Oboro herself seems to be indeed filled with hate and the desire of revenge, and hopes to make both sisters kill each other if she sees the chance. In a final fight which Edwin Black observed, both sisters were supposed to kill each other in a duel (this being one of the bad endings of this game). The winner being allowed to leave, obviously something that both sisters could not tolerate. Asagi then and there knew, that killing Oboro, would also mean the death of Kyousuke, and was unsure on what to do, but eventually she forced herself to give up on her lover to protect her sister and survive. Faking an intense fight, and making sure Oboro came closer in range, Asagi started her super speed assault on Oboro, which was stopped by the Hypnotic Art of her. However, Sakura which waited the whole time to use her Ninja Art for the right moment, used her Shadow Art, and sneaked in a slash attack against Oboro, breaking her concentration on Asagi, which unleashed a number of slashes that killed Oboro once more.

Asagi knew this also meant she sacrificed her boyfriend's life (since Oboro had taken over his body at that point) and felt deeply responsible as the reason he was pulled into this conflict. Both Asagi and Sakura were the victors of the fight, and Oboro once again laid dead on the ground in a pool of blood. Edwin Black spoke, and was impressed with Asagi's abilities and her willpower. As a reward, he allowed both sisters to leave. Though both knew he was an enemy, given how weak they were at the moment, escape was the best option and the Chaos Arena came to an end. Recordings of the fights and the humiliations, spread around the dark web, once more, solidifying Asagi's strength and reputation for many demons. Both sisters later on took care of the Igawa Elder/Senior afterwards, which confirmed their suspicions that he was a traitor. While Black's motivation remained unclear but had something to do with letting go of human ties, the elder wished to make Asagi once more into a Taimanin, no matter the cost. In the Bad Endings, Asagi, Sakura and even Oboro herself, can end up being turned into slaves/breeders and/or punished for their actions.A follow-up raid of the Chaos Arena by the Taimanin, and one of Asagi's old friends Yatsu Murasaki, also almost had ended the life of Kiryu Sabato but he was able to escape. Asagi and Sakura gave up on having a normal life and moved into the current Igawa Estate in Gosha Village, pushing herself after the death of her fiancé to become even stronger. She formed once more a Taimanin Squad with Yatsu Kuro and Sakura, the group worked intensively with Yamamoto Nobushige, leader of Section Three, who oversaw the Taimanin organization at the time.
It can be assumed that Asagi, at this point adopted also the brother of Sawaki Kyousuke, Kosuke and also allowed Koukawa Asuka, to live as her adopted daughter, in the Igawa Estate. Asagi was supported by Mizuki Shiranui, as an advisor, but Shiranui mysteriously disappeared in Yomihara. (In this continuity in the year **2073**)

Asagi became once again squad leader as Sakura, trained in Gosha Academy, together with Murasaki, which often showed her strong feelings for Asagi. In the year **2075**, the Japanese government integrated the Taimanin fully and they starting to work in an official manner as part of Section Three (TM). While, Asagi was busy with her own mission, Murasaki and Sakura were able to capture Kiryu Sabato, which looked later into a way to revert the effects of the Body Modification. At some point, she fights a Dark Beast, and her powers are sealed for a short time, forcing her to have a vacation, with both Sakura and her friend Yatsu Murasaki just for a demon to use that opportunity but as always Asagi is able to come out on top and defeat Booker Walls, before things can get much worse.

Four year after the events of the Chaos Arena, in year **2076**, the events of Taimanin Asagi 2 unfolded. While investigating the disappearance of Taimanins in the city of Tokyo Kingdom they discovered a connection that pointed to Dragon Gate, a Chinese Union mafia, which was the most likely behind the abductions.

Asagi's Squad went to the city, Asagi and Sakura worked as fake prostitutes, while staying in a nearby building. Running into a strange girl which seemed to observe them multiple times, they reported back to the Taimanin Yatsu Kuro and their higher up, Yamamoto Nobushige of Section Three. Learning about the history of Tokyo Kingdom, and the conflict between Chinese Union and UFS. Dragon Gate, being even enemies of Nomad, which was overall more based in the UFS. The city had become a stronghold of Dragon Gate, with almost nothing going past them, and the lost Taimanin were probably either killed or had been brainwashed at this point. However, Dragon Gate caught on quick to the investigation, and send multiple soldiers after the Taimanin, though the soldiers themselves couldn't harm them. The explosions, and the large assault, forced the Taimanin to jump out of the window. Landing in the small streets below

Down on the ground, a new demon, the Oni Sokushitsuki, waited for Asagi. Unable to confirm if he also worked for Dragon Gate, Asagi fought the speed demon, while Sakura went up ahead. Poisoned by a hidden needle, Asagi decided to rather run than fight further, even if she could win right now. Leaving Sokushitsuki behind, that observed the situation and seemed unconcerned. Unbeknownst to Asagi, Sokushitsuki was possessed by Edwin Black, who had suffered heavy injuries after a fight with Saya. He was there to enter one of Dragon Gate's bases to recover stolen research data and genetic material.

When Asagi caught up to her sister, she found Sakura defeated. The strange girl they saw the past few days was a secret Dragon Gate bioweapon called Saya, a former Taimanin that was transformed into a crazed child-like monster. As she started to transform into a giant spider, she claimed this was a power inherent to all Taimanin. Meanwhile, Tokyo Kingdom Bridge exploded, with this also being a plan of Dragon Gate to cut off Asagi and Sakura from any outside support. Saya's strength by herself was more than a match to a weakened Asagi, and even after landing some good hits, in the end Saya was able to defeat Asagi with her strength and tentacles. Knocking both girls out. Asagi had a strange dream, talking to a demonic version of herself, warning her that somebody tried to fuse each other. Asagu and Sakura awoke cut off from support like Kuro, in a Dragon Gate Hideout, bound to odd tentacle creatures.

Saya, wondering about what fun they would have and how she could torture them, was stopped for now with an old face returning, "Oboro". This time not the previous Oboro they fought four year ago, but Oboro (Clone), created by samples that found their ways to Dragon Gate after her death in the Chaos Arena. This clone was loyal to Dragon Gate, and rose in the ranks as leader of this hideout. She was the one that ordered the death of the Taimanin and had captured a female Taimanin prior. Torturing Saya, that now was nothing more than a crazed yet loyal demonic monster. Clone Oboro now planned to do the same thing to Asagi and Sakura, driving them to end their own lifes as this was required for the transformation.

That clone, having high goals, wished to turn the sisters into bioweapons like Saya, and proceeds to "train" and humiliate the sisters again. During these procedures, Asagi starts to hear the voice of her own Inner Demon, a power she could use but would come with the danger of becoming corrupted by it. While Saya tortured Sakura. Asagi, faced all kind of creatures and multiple men of Dragon Gate. After a few weeks, both women are at their limit. Clone Oboro, presents them on the street, as their final humiliation before getting them killed, with all sorts of creatures pushing themselves on them.

In the Bad Endings, many things can happen: Clone Oboro might find it a waste to end things and will keep them for one more year. They can be turned into real prostitutes with clones replacing them. Oboro can kill Sakura to further torment Asagi, or she can end up dead herself; among other similar outcomes.

However, in the true ending, she commands Asagi to end her life to also save her sister. Asagi, as soon as she holds the sword, uses it however, to slice Oboro open, which only survives thanks to Saya. Sakura blocks the tentacle attack of Saya with her body and starts to bleed out. Asagi, at this moment convinced her sister had died, gives slightly, but not fully, into her Inner Demon. With her Demon Asagi, she moves faster and outperforms Saya and is able to pierce Saya's heart, killing Saya. Though, Asagi feels that Saya herself was also nothing more than a victim. As Asagi turns back to her human self, she thinks that Saya had lost her mind, and only could connect to others by violence and wished to do so to other Taimanin like them.
Clone Oboro, runs away from the scene but is killed by the real Oboro, which had been resurrected by Black as a vampire. Black himself, had a battle with Kuro, on his way and took over his body after Sokushitsuki was killed. Both Black and Oboro, recover the stolen data and escape. Kuro himself awakens afterward, as he is a user of a Ninja Art which helps him to heal, and calls for further backup, informing Asagi about the situation regarding Black and Oboro.

An helicopter arrives, saves Sakura's live and Dragon Gate suffers heavy loses from that conflict, weakening their grip on Tokyo Kingdom. However, also strengthening Nomad in the process.

Asagi took care of the leftovers of Dragon Gate, disarming mercenaries like Ricardo Bogan and killed most of the Asagi Clones, which could prove as a later danger. As she fears that the power to awaken a demonic self, could exist in all of them. Asagi also returned to her full leadership position as the clan head, and as the years went on was chosen by Yamamoto Nobushige, to be the next Taimanin Chief and the headmaster of Gosha Academy.

Asagi's sister became a teacher in the year 2077, with Murasaki also becoming a teacher before. Living, with Asuka and Kosuke, Kousuke tended to have only eyes for Asagi, which makes Asuka jealous, but for some time this went well, and they all live together in the Igawa Estate together with also their aunt Sakura. During this period Asagi began to perform missions more with the goal to train the next, professional generation of Taimanins, as a mentor. She took Asuka, with her Murasaki and Sakura on missions, and Asuka even became famous around the age of 14, within the village.

In the year **2078**, now 5 years after the disappearance of Mizuki Shiranui, Asagi was informed over a leak, that Shiranui might have been active in Under Eden. Asagi granted the request of Shiranui's daughter, Yukikaze and senior Akiyama Rinko, to go on an undercover investigation. During the time of the special camp, Rinko's brother, overheard Asagi's and Sakura's concern, that they would had prefered to sent somebody else but lacked resources, and had also concern about the informant. Akiyama Tatsuro afterward, voiced his concern to gather information if the currently week long mission, really was going according to plan. After, Asagi and Sakura investigated, and learned that Yukikaze and Rinko, had taken a high risk and broken the normal mission parameters, Asagi and Sakura took the owner of Under Eden hostage. Forcing, "Real" to break the Magical Contract, she then sternly ordered Yukikaze and Rinko to return, which at this point had suffered the same Body Modification. In the year, **2079** Asagi sent Kousaka Shizuru and Akiyama Tatsuro, to investigate Seishu Academy as a follow up to the events of Under Enden, while Yukikaze and Rinko, took out politican Yazaki Muneichi, that had produced the original leak as a trap, and had since the failure, tried to destroy the Taimanin until he had lost re-election and now was on the run for his crimes. While both missions were a success, Asagi was forced to cover up, that Yukikaze had destroyed parts of Haneda International Airport, by mistake, scolding them once again. Asagi also allowed, the later raid on Seishu after Tatsuro, could confirm the connection, the Taimanin were looking for.

Asuka, was the next person, that caused trouble for Asagi, a mission regarding Nomad and Edwin Black was viewed as to dangerious by Asagi but Koukawa Asuka, which still desired revenge for the Koukawa Massacre pushed to go and kill him. Asagi refused, and Asuka rushed into the unapproved mission, to take down Edwin Black, and subsequently went missing, which filled Asagi with regret over her lost daughter.

Only during TA3 would Asagi learn, that Asuka was still alive and had joined the Anti-Nomad "DSO", to become stronger but also became a cyborg, as she had lost her limbs in her battle with Black. This damaged their relationship, as Asuka resented Asagi for not helping her in her quest to avenge her fallen clan. Asuka wished to be seen as a useful Taimanin, not just as a daughter, something Asagi had trouble with in the case of both Kousuke and Asuka, as she tended to pamper them.
At an age of 33 , 10 years after the Events of the Chaos Arena in the year **2082**, Asagi would meet Asuka, after taking down a corrupt former politician (TA3). In the prologue, Asagi is captured by Yamazaki Shin, the former finance minister had his connections to demons revealed and now was hiding in Tokyo Kingdom. Asagi followed him, was captured but had Sakura, in her own shadow ready to strike at any time, with Murasaki arriving as well, they defeated the Red and Blue Oni guards that Shin hired but on their escape were hunted by Chinese Union "Ghoul (Artificial)", a product of the genes stolen back in TY2 of Edwin Black. Asuka arrives and destroys the Ghoul units but refuses to talk to Asagi at this point. A brief fight ensues. Even though they are unable to see eye to eye, Asagi views her still as her daughter. They then part ways.

During this period, Asagi is cured of her Body Modification by Kiryu Sabato, which had joined the Taimanin after the events of Taimanin Murasaki, and had found a cure, but things do not get easier for her. When Sawaki Kosuke awoke to a "bedroom art" and revealed his feelings for Asagi, she became his lover for some time. Though, as Asagi investigated, something was odd with his art, as the Sawaki clan could not awaken to such an art. She still enjoyed her time and kept the whole matter a secret from her sister.

Asagi eventually ends up pregnant, but as it turns out, it was all part of Nomad's plan. Both her and Kosuke had been secretly tricked by Oboro and another Nomad member, named Fürst (Sabato's Mentor), into engaging in this relationship. The "Bedroom Art" was actually a special ability that put an infected "egg" inside her, which could control Asagi. Kousuke is transformed into a flesh ball and kept as a hostage and as a tool that can control the "egg" and, by extension, Asagi. However, Kiryu Sabato and Yatsu Murasaki were able to interrupt things from getting worse. Kosuke buys them time as, the revelation of what he had done awakened his own "real" Ninja Art, that could control metal. Unable to capture Asagi, Oboro and Fürst took Kosuke and fled. The "egg" was removed from Asagi, with Sakura and Murasaki not pushing the matter, being as sensitive as it was.

Asagi next received direct orders from Prime Minister, Asai Koujirou, to investigate a building connected to the corrupt politician she had dealt with in the beginning. However, before she could go, Asuka arrives and attacks the Asai's office, seemingly as a diversion for other DSO members to collect data. A short fight between both Taimanin again ends with no victor, and Asuka, frustrated that Asagi does not view her as "real" opponent, runs off. Asagi afterwards sets out to take on the mission given by Asai, that turns out to be a trap. Asagi and the Taimanin, are blamed for the murder of another political figure, Nonomura. She's able to avoid getting captured by a soldier squad using an advanced weapon called Raiden, thanks to the help of a mysterious Masked Taimanin, whos turns out to be one of the higher ups of the DSO.

The Masked Taimanin informs her that Asai and Black are connected and the government itself now worked for Nomad, setting up the Taimanin for the murder of Nonomura to outlaw the Taimanin and subsequently wipe them out. Asagi is forced to remain hidden, as the nation goes into martial law, with her only remaining contact in the government being Yamamoto Nobushige, who vows to help Asagi to clean up the Taimanin's name, expose Nomad's take-over of the government and restore any damage caused. As Asai's and Nomad's plan continue, Gosha Village falls under the siege of the Kanda Brigade, a military unit of the government in charge of doing dirty and outright illegal missions. During the siege a lot of Taimanin, mostly students, are either killed or captured, with Murasaki and Sakura being captured while helping with the evacuation of those few which escaped.

Asagi however, is unable to come to the rescue, as she needs to destroy the servers that contain information related to Taimanins on active missions around Tokyo, to protect those outside of the village. Unable to return for now, she seeks the help of some contacts, including Dogle, which is the brother of Byg. Forced to remain undercover, Asagi starts to destroy the multiple servers, but this takes multiple days.

When Asagi reaches the last server room and destroys it, the Kanda Brigade catches up and attacks her, this time with multiple Raiden units. Asagi is also shown that Sakura and Murasaki have been killed, which pushes her to use her demon form. However, after using her demonic transformation too much in one fight against hordes of demons, she was captured by Edwin Black; He moved Asagi to the headquarters of Nomad in Yomihara, the Palace of Darkness, that also housed a "Demon Arena", a new version of the Chaos Arena. Putting Oboro again in charge of breaking Asagi, she actually subverts his authority by coming with a plan to kill her while not making it to obvious. Using a Slave Seal, Asagi's soul was put into a womb tattoo that was under Oboro's direct control. Allowing her to break her will more effectively than with her own Ninja Art, she once again modified her body.

Depending on the route of TA3, Asagi's tale ends either in a dark or brighter way, as the game splits, between the Asagi Route and the later unlocked Asuka Route. Black and Asai are also revealed to be the same person at this point.

In the **darker** Asagi Vampire Route; Asagi is forced into different fights, including a large unseen Injuu ,and Power Lady (which can lead to gruesome bad ends). Culminating into having her final fight be against demonized versions of Murasaki and Sakura, which have been resurrected with demonic cells.

In this dark outcome, she kills the demonized versions of her friend and sister, as well as Oboro by using her Demon Asagi form. But ends up losing to Edwin Black, which resets the universe creating the ZERO Universe and, by extension, the Online Universes; and fuses with Asagi to create Vampire Asagi, which had been his goal all along because it would allow him to fuse the Human World and Demon World to create a new world. It is not stated that he requires Asagi to reset the universe, but Black views himself and Asagi as godly versions Adam and Eve of sorts, and wants to make her a part of his plan whenever possible. Vaguely stating that he needs her to combat the overwhelming darkness and loneliness that comes from being an immortal and lonely entity. At this point, Vampire Asagi/Edwin Black exist as a being in the ZERO Universe.

Alternatively, in the **brighter** ending of the true Asuka route, her adopted daughter Koukawa Asuka is chosen for the final fight, which Oboro thought she had under control. As a form of last cruelty, Asagi is meant to be killed by her own daughter. However, Asuka came very prepared, able to gain control back of her Prosthesis, take out her captors, saved both Sakura and Murasaki from full Demonization, recovered Kosuke meatball and had a plan ready for Oboro. Unknown to Oboro, the man (one of the captors now hostage) standing next to her had his pockets full of explosives.

As the match between Asagi and Asuka, began, Asuka started shooting a volley of rockets, which flew not in Asagi's direction but hit next to Oboro. Resulting in an very large explosion thanks to the man next to her. This was completely unexpected and killed Oboro on the spot, which was unable to react to that confusing attack. Asagi now healed from her slave seal, is able to fight freely.

Teaming up with Asuka, they both face Edwin Black, who is angered by this outcome. Black transforms into his true form, and thanks to his power over gravity, multiple weapons, and quick healing skills seems to outmatch Asagi and Asuka on their own, but are able to keep up with him. Black had also killed the Masked Taimanin, the true Koukawa Oboro, a while back in the Asuka route, which made the matter even more personal for Asuka.

When hit by one of Asuka's particle canon attacks, Black came close to death. However, this just meant Black was ready to reset the universe, he pushes his hand into Asagi, and forcefully starts fusing with her. Black now once more starts a world reset, creating a dark orb of gravity that soon would swallow the world, and create a new one.

However, Asagi, showing inhuman levels of willpower, quickly reacts and strikes his head with a Kunai charged with Taima Particles, which is impressive considering she is still trying to resist the fusion. This only worked due to the fact that she was so close to Black that being in the eye of the storm for Black's world reset allowed the kunai to be unaffected by things like the gravity. This interrupts Black's concentration long enough for Asuka to charge and fire an even larger particle canon. This attack, filled with a huge amount of Taima Particles, interrupts Black's ability to regenerate or reset the universe fully, and he disintegrates into nothingness. Black is now permanently killed in that timeline, and the world is saved. Asagi proclaims that she is proud of Asuka as a Taimanin, and Asuka does connect to her adopted mother a bit more as well. With the universe saved, and Asuka and Asagi return to their homes for now. It is unknown what happens to Nomad, now that their main leader is dead, although it is definitely a huge blow to the organization.

In the epilogue, Asagi returns as headmaster, Yamamoto Nobushige was able to clear the Taimanins name, thanks to leftover letters of Nonomura Hiroo and Japan has been restored to normal order. Murasaki and Sakura have recovered and Kiryu Sabato makes sure that full Demonization, does not take place. Sawaki Kosuke could not be restored to human form, but his mind is restored, and he is not suffering from pain anymore, with Sakura even joking on the matter.

Asagi is visited by Koukawa Asuka, and both are on much better terms, able to talk and respect each other. Asuka remains with the DSO, but both promise to find a cure for Kosuke, one day before saying goodbye.

Taimanin Asagi 3 does not take place (however, this world exists because of Black's universe reset ability) but almost all other events do (or had slight changes). In this world, she is also the headmistress of Gosha Academy and the leader of the Taimanin. The story of the Fuuma clan revolt and its instigator, Fuuma Danjo, is first mentioned here and expanded upon, in which she defeats Danjo, but he survived year **2068**, and fled to the UFS to become part of its Task Force G.

In the year **2082** her Taimanin are being attacked by Fuuma Kotaro (TABA), son of Danjo, criminal Taimanin, by his criminal Fuuma Organization, that tries to gather power also against his father. Though she is opposed to Kotaro and sends multiple Taimanin after him, she still seems fascinated by his growth and at times works together with him should it be required. She often took a rather neutral approach to Kotaro, with both understanding that if he attacked her and her close allies this would have consequences, regardless of his abilities.

Asagi interacts with some other protagonist and views him as a danger, sending Taimanin Squads after him or to free captured allies. While, in some cases, she is willing to cooperate. As in the case in which she at first hired Annerose Vajra to capture Fuuma Kotaro (TABA) but when a bigger threat, in Vampire Asagi appeared, she formed a temporary alliance with Fuuma Kotaro. The witch Neu Eazlane, informing the group that the UFS had used a Philosopher's Stone to create a new Otherworld Gate but lost control of the situation. A being calling itself the vampire queen, Vampire Asagi, of another world, came from that portal and was guarding the gate which could destroy the demon and human realm. Asagi used her Inner Demon form to support, Annerose, Neu and Kotaro, and they were able to break the portal and push Vampire Asagi back.

In year **2083**, Asagi held talks with the Vampire Hunters of Hayato Private Academy, in which the real vampire queen Carla Cromwell and her considered a cooperation against Edwin Black. In year **2084**, Guignol Faust, turns her and other girls of Nomad, DSO and Gosha into plushies and Fuuma Kotaro (TABA) is able to break the curse with the defeat of Faust. However, as they all still lay on the ground, Asagi's Clone arrives, which works for Danjo and "G". As Kotaro flees from the attacking clone, and in the end is able to knock it out and kill his father with some help, Asagi and the Masked Taimanin arrive, witnessing a new power which was unsealed in Kotaro as a result. This ability to not just steal a person's ability but absorb them for a limited time to turn into them, was viewed as dangerous and as a result, Kotaro himself was knocked out and put under house arrest. This was done in a combined effort of DSO and Taimanin, to avoid that Black and Kotaro interacted, because nobody knew what would happen if Kotaro tried to absorb Black.

Asagi herself watched over Kotaro, while on a beach, however Task Force G was able to find Kotaro and sent the assassin KINGS-3 Tesla to take him out, Kotaro was able to flee thanks to his new ability and escaped with that also the Taimanin, which together with the DSO were now more hostile toward Kotaro.

In year **2085**, as Fürst of Nomad, became an issue for Kotaro, and he was forced to take action against. He sneaked into Gosha and recruited Amamiya Shisui to defeat Fürst. However, knowing that DSO and Taimanin, still viewed any conflict with Nomad as too dangerous, he confronted them both in an attack to display his power. Shisui which came with Kotaro willingly, told Asagi not to stop them and that she would give her support without being enemies. As a gesture of good faith, Kotaro returned two captive Taimanin, Kamimura Maika and Shido Rinka to Asagi as well.

In the year, **2086**, with conflict between Nomad and Fuuma Organization growing. Kotaro fought Felicia, and almost lost Shisui because of her injuries, Asagi arrived afterward. Instead of taking Kotaro or killing him like her assistant Hoshino Mitsuki wanted, she rescued Amamiya Shisui and promised she would not keep her if she wanted to return to him. As the situation with Shisui is grave, Shisui does not return for the final battle with Black in a "normal" sense.

In the last events, around Asagi enters a fight with Edwin Black. A joined operation between DSO, Taimanin and Fuuma Organization, investigates the boss of Task Force G, which in this timeline had been replaced by a Nomad double agent at this point. Asagi sent out Mizuki Yukikaze together with Kotaro. However, both faced a trap of Oboro and Kotaro was captured, with Yukikaze able to escape, informing the Taimanin about the situation.

Asagi joined the fight as part of a large raid of, Taimanin, Fuuma Organization and DSO, they beat back Nomad. However, when Asagi fought Black himself, she was injured and about to die, in order to keep her alive and keep fighting Fuuma Kotaro (TABA) absorbed her body with his Evil Eye and transformed into her to fight. However, the battle still goes badly, with Black's world reset power starting, as he is able to pierce Asagi's body not unlike in the TABA universe. Kotaro in a last ditch effort, tried to disconnect with Asagi and activated his ability again to absorb Black this time, as Black tried to corrupt Asagi and absorb her in turn. As the abilities collided, the world is reset. This creates many new worlds, from the other worlds of the TABA variety with different events occurring in them, to the epilogue world in which she continues to hunt after Kotaro; the RPGX timeline, ostensibly the Action and GOGO timelines, and countless more.

In many new worlds, the fusion between Black and Asagi failed fully. Asagi was herself not fully corrupted, like in the vampire Asagi routes of TA3, and never cut her human ties in this reset scenario or overused her Demon Asagi form. However, at least in the Epilogue Universe of TABA, a twisted Vampire Asagi/Black fusion is created for a short time and takes over Nomad. Vampire Asagi confronts Fuuma Kotaro (TABA), at the final day of the new year, with Kotaro's memory of the event returning. Vampire Asagi states, that the "reset" had an unexpected result, as Black's absorption and Kotaro's Evil Eye collided. The fact Kotaro still had those memories was one of the consequences, but also now allowed Kotaro to join their side and become an immortal like them. However, Kotaro defeats Vampire Asagi and rejected the idea of becoming a demon, stating he would take everything with his own power as a human. As he asked Asagi what she would do, light filled Asagi's body, as she returned to her normal human self fully, still more connected to her human self, and states that if Kotaro is somebody that will take over the darkness with his own hands, she will be the human Taimanin to oppose him like before. Afterward, she joked that immortality was boring anyway, which Kotaro approved as something the real Asagi would say. With the demonic part of Black, erased. Asagi and Kotaro continued to play "cat and mouse" within that world, and a flashback shows Kotaro and her still fighting long into the future.

However, in other worlds the difference is much stronger, with the new realities being radically different.

Taimanin Asagi 3 does not take place (however, this world exists because of Black's universe reset ability) but almost all other events do (or had slight changes). In this world, she is also the headmistress of Gosha Academy and the leader of the Taimanin. A reset world from the TABA timeline, this world significantly expands on some previous lore of the old world and adds new lore, some of it relevant to all timelines. Asagi still is born in the same year.

Asagi, was well known by Koukawa Oboro as a weirdo in her youth which, was able to create peace between the Igawa and Kato clan. As somebody, which often did not follow the rules, and known for her power, she was hated by her grandmother Hattori Seishu, one of the Igawa elders.

On top of the Fuuma clan revolt **2068** (which is expanded Danjo died in this time) it adds the Igawa Revolt in which her grandmother Hattori Seishu and aunt Igawa Senshu, tried to take over leadership, in year **2070**. Mizuki Shiranui is mentioned more as a former advisor for Asagi, which also had held the function of headmaster at times before her disappearance in year **2077**.

During the time of the Fuuma Revolt **2068**, in which Asagi defeated the instigator Fuuma Danjo, Seishu and other Igawa Elders decided to eliminate the entire Fuuma clan including the 3-year-old heir of the clan Fuuma Kotaro. Kotaro, made his way from the burning Fuuma Village to the new build Gosha Village to offer surrender and save his clan. As Kotaro, Fuuma Tokiko and Nisha Gaiza reached Gosha, they were attacked by the hound of the Igawa Elders, but could fend him off long enough for Asagi to arrive, which forced the hound to withdraw. Asagi accepted the offer of peace, and allowed the Fuuma clan to join Gosha.

Year **2069**, Asagi father and Igawa clan head becomes the leader of the now formed Gosha Village, still unofficially, the next year he is considered the second Taimanin Chief after Danjo.

However, in the same year **2070** Hattori Seishu, one kills her own son and tries to assassinate Asagi as well, with nobody questioning her authority in the Igawa clan. However, Asagi was able to kill the hound of the Igawa Elders with the help of Mizuki Shiranui, which her aunt Igawa Senshu tried to blackmail to stay out of the conflict, something that backfired fully. Supported furthermore by young Yatsu Kuro, they pushed back Senshu to the main base of the Igawa Elders of the Igawa Revolt Group. As Fuuma clan, Koukawa clan and other allies also supported the more liked Asagi, the united Taimanin forces defeated the Igawa Revolt Group. Asagi herself defeated Hattori Seishu, and gave her fatal injuries, that even after she teleported away with her Ninja Art, should have killed her either way. Her aunt, Igawa Senshu, lost her arms thanks to Shiranui and was captured, later brought to Amidahara Prison.

In the year **2073**, the Koukawa Massacre destroyed most of the Koukawa clan. Asagi, older Fuuma Tokiko and Shiranui arrived too late with most of the still independent but close by clan eradicated by hit party of Teutates. The group fought Cernunnos, which was able to escape with his life and was at least able to recover Koukawa Asuka. Asagi, tried to live with Asuka herself at first, before leaving her in the more capable and free hands of the Yatsu Kuro and Yatsu Murasaki.

As, events alike to the main canon play out, Asagi once more becomes the Taimanin Chief and headmaster of Gosha Academy.

With slightly changed, events occurring, it is unknown if Asagi ever became a lover of Sawaki Kyousuke. However, TA2 in the year **2076**, and the conflict with Oboro's clone still occurred. As well as the death of Saya and later recreation in Saya Neo.

**2082**, thirteen years after, the Fuuma clan gave up their fight, Fuuma Danjo Loyalists, in the form of Nisha Gaiza started a short revolt and assassination attempt against Asagi. This failed thanks to the help of Fuuma Kotaro, Aishu Hebiko and Uehara Shikanosuke, which are at this point students of Gosha Academy. As Gaiza and his Ninja Troops of the Nisha clan escaped. Asagi recognized Kotaro's tactical abilities and assigned him to an independent guerilla unit. This flexible unit, was supposed to deal with the threats of the Nisha Ninja Troops, and other demonic groups. While Asagi herself, gives them missions she often does not enter combat herself.

She is part of a training fight, containing multiple Taimanin including Kamimura Maika, Mizuki Yukikaze and Fuuma Kotaro, and is able to battle multiple Taimanin at once. She also assists in the rescue of Aishu Hebiko from Kaliya's Chaos Arena and forced the "snake lady" Kalija to back down.

In the year **2083**, she becomes a target of a yet unknown group (connected to the Internal Affairs Bureau in secret). The weapon, Clear Lobel, was sent after her with a explosive device but was defused thanks to Fuuma Kotaro, Uehara Shikanosuke and Mizuki Yukikaze. As Clear was a victim and had be stolen before this, she is allowed to stay at Yukikaze's place to remain save in Gosha.

Asagi faked the death of "Sungo Bunko", with her contact to the Rogue Taimanin, Shinganji Kurenai and Makishima Ayame after she learned the Internal Affairs Bureau planned to gut the surrendering cyborg of Task Force G, which wished to return to Gosha, to give his respect to his deceased daughter. While Kotaro investigated on his own, and learned about Asagi's plot from Kurenai. Asagi herself, and Yamamoto Nobushige had talks with the chief of the Internal Affairs Bureau, Mine Funako, which assumed Asagi had killed Bunko. Mine, herself, was hiding a deep hate against Asagi for an unknown reasion, and Asagi was forced to use her demonic form against one of her subordinates, Naito Arahiko. While, the open conflict could be ended, hostility still clearly existed between the Internal Affairs Bureau and Asagi. The Kanda Brigade is used, during this distraction, to retaking Clear Lobel and free Major from Gosha. However, Clear remains protected as the Taimanin forces beat the small squat back. Back at Gosha, Asagi reveals that "Sungo Bunko" now with new parts, under the new name of the cyborg Taimanin "Library", had joined their ranks as well.

In this world, Asagi is convinced by Fuuma Aki to let one of her clones (of 2076 TA2) live, which Aki looks after, while the clone works in the Downtown Detective Agency. Asagi is responsible for Kousaka Shizuru's mission as part of the Yomihara Neighborhood Association, to make Yomihara as also Nomad is a less negative force in this timeline, as long as it is under Ingrid.

In the year, **2084**, Asagi approves the investigation of the Independent Rangers into a serial killer connected to Internal Affairs Bureau inside Gosha. As a result, the daughter of Library, Izumo Tsuru can be found alive, and the plan to kill Asagi with a Demi Human army is stopped.

In year **2085**, Asagi saved dark elf Eleonor from the slave catcher Black Knight Percival. As Percival had a magical armor, making him immune to all weapons, Asagi fought him just with her fist, until he lost his helmet and was killed. The civilian, which had his memories of this accident removed, still was thanked by Eleonor which joined Gosha's protection, while she looked for her own sister.

The conflict with the Internal Affairs Bureau, which had continued in minor events, escalated finally as a reformed Revolt Group, led by Igawa Senshu, which had broken out recently, attacked Gosha in a raid. The raid caused much destruction, but Asagi was able to defend Gosha Village and convince her aunt to lay down her weapons. Learning, that she was carrying unknowingly an atomic bomb, Asagi talked her down and convinced her to reveal the person behind it all. Mine Funako, which in truth was Hattori Seishu, which had survived by being implanted into the body of Mine. "Mine Funako" (Hattori) lost her government protection and is also captured by the Independent Rangers. Which worked together with benign demonic groups, which also suffered because of Mine.

Senshu and Asagi end the quarrel, and Asagi eventually pushes for Senshu to receive a pardon, as she just acted in fear of her own mother and had been imprisoned for many years before that. However, Senshu sees herself as irredeemable, punishing herself, and isolates herself from the village, going into a self-destructing path in Yomihara. Asagi sent out Kotaro to overlook the situation. However, a group of Taimanin filled with deep grudge against Senshu, summoned a forbidden Hexenbiest Curse by killing themselves. Senshu sacrifices herself in order to stop it, which regardless of her past actions still saddened Asagi deeply, which had hoped both could connect more as family.

**2086**, Asagi was invited together with Fuuma Kotaro and Linoa Serin, Yatsushiro Momoka by in secret Tamamo, to stay over at Marriage Land. Asagi enjoyed the strange experience and thought about the idea of marriage once again. As well as sending out Fuuma Saika to support the part of the succubus faction that fought against the evil Ereshkigal in exchange for information about the "Phantom Witch", as Asagi assumed a corrupted Taimanin. Saika was able to confirm to Asagi, that Mizuki Shiranui had been the Phantom, which now as Phantom Queen, had been made ruler with the death of the King, Kamadeva. Shiranui, gave Asagi also a message, as she had rejected her humanity and former friend, to still fight against evil her own way. Asagi has, so far, kept this information only between herself and later Kotaro. A speaker of Shiranui's side Ambrose, did also request that Asagi could look after Lilim, which was the natural heir of Kamadeva, for further cooperation in their shared battle against Ereshkigal, which herself worked also with the Corpse Lord, Teutates.

In the year **2087**, Asagi, Yukikaze and Hebiko are chosen as the champions of Dakini in a contest against the goddess of marriage Juno. Kotaro, Shishimura Koro and Onisaki Kirara fighting for the other side. As the contest was overall not a serious dual and nobody could be harmed, both groups were willing to fight, with Kotaro's side able to win as Koro used the spirit of Amamiya Shisui to win. Asagi, seemed to know Shisui, which was left as a mystery.

As parts of the Igawa clan ask for an heir, candidates for a husband are introduced with Inage Natsu, acting as a neutral council. Asagi is not very pleased by the idea, at first and when Fuuma Kotaro gives his report of another mission, he shares the same problem as her. Without warning, an unknown god (Lucina) and the strange light it creates hits Asagi turning her pregnant, before the god escaped. Dakini and Empusa arrive, and explain the situation, Juno had transformed into her Lucina form and was out of control. While the "magical pregnancy" was only virutal and no real baby existed, this would only stay true until birth, at which point it would become real and because Lucina was Juno, she made the father Fuuma Kotaro. As the only way to solve the matter was defeating Juno, the group sets out with the help of Dakini, and though they are not able to defeat Lucina, she collapses half asleep and drunk back to her normal form, as every body magically affected returns to normal. After the experience, Asagi meets Inage again and does state that her view of having a child has improved a lot but she still has much to to do and it is not yet the time to marry, which Inage respects as her choice.

Overall, Asagi takes a less central role in the game and works more as an administrator that makes hard decisions and knows more than what she lets on, however, she still sometimes takes on the field.
