Igawa Sakura (ZERO)

Fuuma Organization (TABA)

**Sakura** (ZERO) is the version of Igawa Sakura from the ZERO universes. Other than her main canon counterpart, she is still a student at Gosha Academy.

This page will also contain information of young versions which appear in the Online Universes, and have been dimensionally-displaced. The Action Taimanin version, which does look like this Sakura, is not dimensionally-displaced in the Action Taimanin universe and just younger.

## Personality

She has an upbeat and vigorous personality. She is lax with housework and prefers drinks or playing video games with friends. As a tomboy that loves the idea of Taimanin being heroes of justice, she acts goofy at times however, in fights can get serious. She is oblivious, silly and childish much of the time but also very forgiving.

Overall, Sakura spreads cheerful vibes where she goes and acts very friendly, only feeling down if she thinks she is a burden to her sister.

Her character is very similar to the original.

## Appearance

Sakura has blond hair cut short with some spiky bangs.

She has blue eyes and bigger bust than her older sister.

## History

A Taimanin and the second daughter of Igawa Shuzen after Asagi (ZERO).

This version of Sakura, and her many universes, were created from the TA3 Reset. Unlike in the original timeline, this Sakura is only one year younger than her sister Igawa Asagi (ZERO) and also around the same age of Murasaki (ZERO). While her sister had quit Gosha Academy, she joined the academy much earlier and still lives in Gosha Village.

In the year **2074**, worked directly under Yamamoto Nobushige (ZERO), she beged unsuccessfully for her sister to return to the Academy while they meet in the Shinminato-ku 6th Precinct, after the defeat of Byg (ZERO).

Back at home, she was tricked by Hachiya Risuke the gym teacher, that a new secret mission needed her attention. Implying a hostage situation and how top secret it was, Sakura went to the Chaos Arena in disguise for a show fight. However, she was defeated by Kaliya and captured. Sakura was given a Dark Seed and remained in training until her sister arrived and was able to defeat Kaliya, after waiting for a chance for a counter-attack. However, this Sakura still has the Dark Seed in her body, and Asagi now looks for Kiryu Sabato to cure her.

### Timeline TABA

Moved from parallel universes by Brain Flayers, a younger Sakura, looking like the ZERO version, joins Fuuma Kotaro, Fuuma Organization.

Avoids contact with the Taimanin of that world and was helped by Fuuma Kotaro and his group, to have a place to stay. There is no clear event, that shows her first arrival, but she is of the same world that Yatsu Murasaki (ZERO) that already had visited Kotaro's world is from.

Given less dirty missions and also working as Kotaro's "bedroom companion" at times. At first, this Sakura is hidden by Kotaro to avoid a fight with Fuuma Tokiko, as there is nothing he fears more, but at the end, saves Kotaro from Red Line together with Tokiko and Shiki Reika. Sakura often saves Kotaro by being hidden in his shadow or acting as his guard, she often spies on him and has fallen in love. In fights with Clone Asagi, she is unable to fight somebody that looks like her sister but is later also united by the younger version of Murasaki, which looked for her. Both become the most trusted members in the Fuuma Organization.

This Sakura is later kidnapped by Fürst and rescued afterward, with the help of Amamiya Shisui. Fürst implanted a Dark Seed into her to control her mind, but thanks to Kiryu Mikoto, it was later removed, even if it was not painless. As she rescued Kotaro from Astaroth, which forced Mikoto to perform the full removal to be performed without anesthesia.

The older normal Sakura, that also exist in that world and her, never meet until the very end in which they take out Chevalier, which guards a barrier of Nomad in the final battle. At the end, the world is reset, but this ZERO Sakura still exists, but without knowledge of the reset, still as part of the Fuuma organization.

### Timeline RPGX

Moved from parallel universes by Brain Flayers, a younger Sakura, looking like the ZERO version, joins Fuuma Kotaro, Independent Commando Unit. The older Sakura, still exists as a teacher in Gosha Academy.

Introduced in an early event, after the founding of the Independent Commando Unit. As Fuuma Kotaro is training, he is thrown by the Brain Flayer, Arsal, by mistake into this Sakura's world. Akiyama Rinko had arrived in this world as well, with the gym being unstable because of Arsal's constant travels. Sakura, at first, attacked Kotaro but later joined him in the fight against Arsal, as the group jumped dimensions multiple times, they returned to the normal RPG Universe but with Arsal crumbled to dust, Sakura was stuck.

Kotaro isn't part of a criminal group, and she remains hidden in his Fuuma Estate, trying to avoid her older other self. Unlike her older self that had some major events, this Sakura appears rare. In one of "what if" events, Sakura tries to reach her own universe with the help of Brain Flayer technology but is thrown to a different ZERO-type world, and not her own world. The Asagi in that realm, mentioning that her Sakura is still a very small child, with the age between the sisters having shifted.

Another version of her might also exist in the Dark Future Timeline, this one kidnapped from a TABA-like world and now a slave to Brain Flayers. A TABA-like, Fuuma loyal, Murasaki trying to save her.

### Timeline Action

## Trivia

* In Action Taimanin a Sakura that looks very much like this one, is the only main Sakura existing with a much older Asagi. The game originally states that, **this Sakura** was displaced like her RPGX version. **However,** all mentions of this have been removed (voice lines, bio, intimacy event). Meaning that, unlike TABA and RPGX, she is the only Sakura in that world.
* The age of this Sakura cannot really be confirmed with a single game, though, ⁣using her old birthday would make her much too old for her grade, so this is just a pure approximation based on no additional information.
* In one of the Bad Endings, she can be turned into stone in the same year, while in another ending her brain is erased after 10 months and two months past that point, she is mercy killed by Koukawa Oboro (ZERO). Since the different death dates for the Bad Endings.
