Digurv

Digurv (ディグルヴ) is a villager from Russia who eventually became an ally to Hamazura Shiage. He has been described as a large man and is a Japanese-speaking guide for tourists. He is first introduced in volume 20 offering Shiage medical treatment from the village doctor for Takitsubo Rikou in exchange for the gas in the car.

He considered to be a honorable and reasonable person throughout the story. In a conversion with Shiage, he reveals that he doesn't hold any contempt for Japan or Academy City; as he stated that the villages were all being targeted by Russia before the war even started. When a frostbitten Russian soldier is found, Digurv helps him as living him to die won't change anything.

In the first attack by pirates, Digurv carries and protects Rikou from the raid and tells Shiage all about the pirates' reasons and methods of attacking. Later he and the russian soldier, Glickin, help Shiage drive a tank in order to fight the attack chopters.

At the end of volume 22, he, Glickin and the other villagers save the reunited ITEM from its handler and pursuers from Academy City.
