## Background

Sugata is the president of the New World Discovery Club (新大陸発見部 Shin Tairiku Hattukenbu) at Sorami High School. He is a scientist of sorts and is currently researching the Angeloids and Synapse with Nymph's help. He lives in a tent near a river and is always seen wearing his school uniform, as he has no other clothes, and praises various European explorers such as Magellan and Columbus.

Sugata is highly eccentric and has involvement with Mikako's family, as her servants call him "young master" . Sugata is also equal on combat abilities with Mikako Satsukitane. He and Daedalus frequently work together when he is visiting Synapse to figure out its nature. Eishirou's intellect managed to impresses the Master of Synapse.

He explains various topics at the beginning of most episodes in the anime, usually about the new world, and using various examples to explain his ideas, including historical figures. These presentations typically gives hints to the events of the episode.

Sugata had an older brother whom he looked up to. Sugata's older brother had a strong passion for flight and gliders, and Sugata developed similar interests. Sugata always followed his older brother around, and helped him with his various projects. One day before a test flight, Sugata and his older brother had an argument over something trivial. Sugata was left to prepare the glider while his older brother was occupied. Since Sugata was still heated from the argument earlier, he put minimal effort into preparing the glider, which he would soon come to regret. They patched up immediately afterwards.

Sugata's older brother plummeted to his death when one of the wings broke off the glider due to Sugata's lack of proper preparation. With the responsibility of his older brother's death on his shoulders, ***Sugata was disowned by his family.*** Sugata's older brother was supposed to be the head of the family, but with his death and Sugata's disowning, Sugata's younger brother became the heir. Sugata set his sights on the new world as a personal way to atone for the responsibility of his brother's death.

## Abilities

While Eishirou does not possess any special powers or talents, he does specialize in using highly advanced technology and his meticulous methods of exploration in order to not only advance his research, but to come to grips with the technology from the mysterious world of Synapse. Being quite intellectual, he puts together theories and ideas based upon his research and findings, occasionally helping out Tomoki and friends whenever they have difficulty understanding of certain situations. When Nymph introduces Eishirou to some of the advanced technology that she uses from Synapse, he takes a great interest in it and begins utilizing it to further his exploration and understanding of the mysterious world of Synapse. There is one downside to his genius, however, and it pertains to the fact that some of his methods or ideas usually result in negative side effects for himself or the hapless Tomoki, who falls victim to Eishirou's incorrect logic and intellectual abilities, Eishirou has shown to be quite a good fighter, managing to take down a bear when they went camping.
