Character details

News reached Raikou that morals and decency had been thrown out the window in the southern isles during last year's summer event.

In order to prevent something like this from happening again this year, she personally prayed to Gozu-Tenno and forced a class change. She may not be as powerful as her Saber self, but she has transformed into Lancer Minamoto-no-Raikou, which has strengthened her desire to protect the capital while restraining her maternal instincts.

"If Raikou were to appear as her proper class, Saber, she'd be totally stern. She'd be a super prefect."

"But as a Lancer...she'd be the shadow prefect. In other words..."

She'd be a delinquent.

With her maternal aspect held back, Raikou slashes through summer as a gallant warrior out to protect the capital!

Profile 1

Height/Weight: 175cm, ??kg

Origin: History, "Otogizoushi," "Tale of Ushi Gozen."

Region: Japan

Alignment: Lawful-Good

Sub-Attribute: Heaven

Gender: Female

Unbelievably, she does not have a Mental Corruption skill this time. At least, so she claims.

Profile 2

To crack down on immorality, Raikou became the shadow prefect.

Her slogan is "Unacceptable, unacceptable...unacceptable!"

She's not the least bit concerned about the outcome of Ishtar's race. Rather, she's there exclusively to keep a close eye on any participants likely to let themselves get out of hand using the summer event as an excuse for immoral behavior.

Once she reaches third ascension, she gets so excited she throws off her school uniform...ultimately becoming the most indecent person in the group. She...doesn't seem to be aware of that. Or...is she...?

Profile 3

Madness Enhancement: C

A skill that increases physical abilities at the expense of the user's sanity. Even as a Lancer, she's not...entirely sane. Well, at least she's not nearly as bad as when she's a Berserker.

It's really all about her moral sense.

In accordance with her sense of duty and morality, Raikou keeps watch over the sense of decency in all those around her.

Still, she's not quite aware of her own appearance, so it's hard to ignore just how much her sanity has decayed...

Profile 4

The Shadow Prefect: A

An altered version of Eternal Arms Mastery.

No matter what the situation, even if she's lost her school uniform, no moral breakdown will escape her vigilance.

Cast Iron Yo-yo: C

Kintoki's notion that a sailor school uniform always paired with one of these seems to have spread to Raikou as well.

Because Raikou is able to practice every form of martial arts, she is able to wield a yo-yo with deadly skill, whacking any summer temptations that might threaten Chaldea's moral integrity.

Summer Catastrophe: EX

It's something to see even when she doesn't strip...but it's even more of a sight when she DOES!

A skill comparable to Summer Crisis, which tests how many gazing eyes are collected at the beach. Unlike Beach Flower, it draws attention far past the level of mere infatuation.

Profile 5

『Vajra of Indra』

Rank: A+

NP Type: Anti-Personnel/Anti-Army

Shakudankan-in Kongousho.

In Hinduism, the mystical weapon of Gozu-Tenno, the reincarnation of the Eastern deity Indra. In other words, Vajra, the final weapon of the gods made from sacred bones descends from the sky and destroys her enemies.

This Noble Phantasm is essentially what made Raikou manifest as a Lancer.

It takes the form of the Tokkosho, a weapon that universally represents reality and everything, according to Esoteric Buddhism.

Arjuna: "That Noble Phantasm is my father's..."

Rama: "That Noble Phantasm is..."

Additional profile

"Just because it's summer, one mustn't get too out of control, understand?" So the prefect tells Master.

"B-but, Miss Prefect...y-you're showing...

That...that slit in your skirt leaves little to the imagination...

And under that school uniform...th-that swimsuit..."

"Hm? Is something the matter, Master?"

She doesn't get it!

Bond Level 1
Will you work alongside me to protect the world's morality, Master? How wonderful. Let's work well together!
Bond Level 2
I feel our efforts in correcting the world's indecencies are progressing well. There can be no doubt that this is all thanks to your help, Master. Hehe... You are so dependable.
Bond Level 3
Thank you for your assistance. Because of you, rumors are spreading around Chaldea of the existence of the shadow prefect. However, our battle still continues. Let's continue our valiant quest of preserving morality in the world.
Bond Level 4
Is moral corruption... ...something that will never disappear as long as humans remain as they are? Does every individual feel compelled to let loose once in a while? Even I...sometimes... N-no...please pay no heed. I am the shadow prefect, so it is not my place to complain...
Bond Level 5
...May I be completely honest with you? Let me preface this by saying that moral corruption is terrible. Shamelessness is terrible, and there is no need to act excessively unrestrained just because it is summer or because an event is happening. However... Sometimes...I feel allowing certain exceptions...can be acceptable... I mean...even I have this uncontrollable urge to let loose... And this is just between you and me, but I've been wearing a swimsuit underneath this school uniform the whole time! ...Eh? You knew? From the very beginning? No... Master... Even after hearing all that, you still think of me as the shadow prefect...? Oh...my...goodness...
Conversation 1
I believe it's time for our patrol. It's not acceptable to skip this, Master.
Conversation 2
I am the shadow prefect. Which means, Master, you are... How about I call you the vice-shadow prefect? Yes, that is indeed an honorable role!
Conversation 3
There is no need for formality or hierarchy between shadow prefects. Therefore, if there is anything on either of our minds, we mustn't hold back. ...Yes? You already have something to say? Hehehe... What could it be? Please do not avert your gaze... Look right at me as you speak.
Likes
What I like? For morality and decency to be protected and for Chaldea to be peaceful.
Dislikes
What I dislike? Why, moral degradation, of course. Shamelessness is absolutely forbidden...unacceptable, unacceptable, unacceptable!
About the Holy Grail
The Holy Grail? Well, morality and the Holy Grail seem unrelated... Oh, but human greed sometimes turns to shamelessness. So, it is unacceptable!
Conversation 4
I found it! I have found it! I have found the oni who I believe to be the source of all of this corruption! Please take a look, Master. That insect's very existence itself destroys dignity... No, please don't look. One look, and your eyes will be tainted! Unnnnngh... Unacceptable, unacceptable! Its existence is completely unacceptable!
Conversation 5
Mother is the shadow prefect right now. I will not be able to play the role of mother as often, but...Kintoki? Why do you hang your head like that? Be a good boy and hold your head high. (Tug!) ...Kintoki? Kintoki? You're so pale... I see you have caught a cold. You must have fallen asleep naked again! Naughty, Kintoki!
Conversation 6
Oni are essentially the embodiment of moral corruption. We must eradicate them right away.
Conversation 7
Oh? What do I think of the monk's outfit? I believe it is exemplary, of course. She is wearing a highly virtuous Buddhist stole... Even if she were to wear a bikini underneath, would that matter? ...That's not what I said during the event? Is that a problem?
Conversation 8
Hmmm... I do not know why I feel restless. I feel a tingling sensation... It is almost as if someone is staring intently at me. Perhaps it is someone who wants to protect the world's morality with me, but is shyly hiding in the bushes!
Conversation 9
Yes, what is it, Sir Knight? An eyesore? You believe I may overstimulate the young ones? Huh... I have no idea what you are talking about... Yes? What is it? Hehe, you really are an austere person. You may be worthy of becoming a shadow prefect.
Conversation 10
H-h-how shameless! Absolutely not, absolutely not! Now you listen, y-y-you must be more modest than that! Unacceptable, unacceptable!
Conversation 11
...As the shadow prefect, I have gained courage. That's why I am going to finally ask this question. In fact, I am compelled to ask: Kintoki! I have been holding this question within myself all this time! You... Y-your hairstyle with your bangs grown out and teased up in that way...did you perhaps become a delinquent!? Hey, wait! Kintoki! You're not getting away from me! Kintoki!
During an Event
What is this... Yet another event!? Whether it be summer or not, there is never a good time to abandon oneself to pleasure. Master, come with me and we will protect decency together!
Birthday
Happy birthday. Please continue to live proudly and without shame as a living example of purity and goodness for all Masters.
