Sakata (坂田 Sakata?) is a member of the Kouga School of Ninjutsu.

Appearance[]

Sakata was a young woman with wavy light-colored bob-cut hair. She wore an extra long sleeve hoodie, short pants, and pom-pom knit cap.[3][4][2][5][6][Notes 2]

Background[]

Kouga school

A young Sakata training with others, under Oumi Shuri's supervision.

Sakata's background is largely unknown, but they were apparently trained alongside Asai, Yasu, and Tsurigane Saryou when she was still with the Kouga.[7]

Sakata remained in the service of the Kouga with the others while Tsurigane went undercover as a Child Error in Academy City.[3] By the later months of the story's first year, with the Kouga reaching their limits in the changing times, they sought to acquire new methods and abilities to contend with the likes of Academy City and Baggage City, which would result in Asai, Sakata and Yasu going on at least two missions to that end, under Oumi Shuri's lead.[1][3][6]

Chronology[]

Shinyaku Toaru Majutsu no Index[]

Baggage City Arc[]

Main article: Baggage City Arc

In mid-November, Sakata, Asai, Yasu and Oumi Shuri, went to Baggage City for the Natural Selector tournament in order to find an interesting person that they could get and analyze their abilities for the sake of the Kouga School.[1]

Sakata, Asai, and Yasu later come upon Kihara Enshuu, while Shuri contacts them regarding a treasure she found fit for the Kouga, though only their screams reach their ears, as they describe her as a monster.[1] They are presumably killed by Enshuu.[Notes 1]

Jailbreaker Arc[]

Main article: Jailbreaker Arc

Sakata was part of the Kouga group led by Oumi Shuri, together with Asai and Yasu, who infiltrated Academy City in mid-October with Tsurigane's help to learn what they could in the city for the Kouga, and subsequently participated in the Jailbreak Trial two days later on Tsurigane's suggestion (actually to aid her city friends in breaking out Shundan Kimi).[3][4][2][5][8][9]

Kouga Ninjutsu Technique 2 - Railgun Ch102

Sakata[Notes 2] fighting robots during the Jailbreak Trial.

During the event, they scaled the outer walls, over the top around the time that other competitors had opened a hole in the wall below,[3] and once inside the grounds, fought off the guard robots with their respective ninjutsu.[4] Inside the prison building, the group split up, reuniting a little while later after Oumi took a painful blow to her rear end, shortly before the event concluded.[2][5]

When Tsurigane was defeated by Shirai Kuroko after openly betraying the Kouga, Sakata and the other ninjas observed the events from a nearby rooftop. After hearing from Oumi about how the Dark May Project had affected Tsurigane and it had proved the risk of incorporating Academy City's technology into their ninjutsu, Sakata acknowledged Oumi's declaration that Tsurigane's judgment would be left to the city's laws and that its technology was not to be touched again, before the group departed.[6]

Abilities[]

Being a Kouga ninja, Sakata was trained in their techniques since early childhood.[3][7] Her combined ninjutsu and athletic abilities were sufficient to traverse the Second Reformatory's outer defenses, scale the outer wall and fend off the facility's guard robots during the Jailbreak Trial.[3][4]

One of her presumed techniques appears to involve long adhesive strands which she spreads from her fingers.[4][Notes 2]

Notes[]

  1. 1.0 1.1 While the deaths of Asai, Sakata and Yasu are not explicitly confirmed, given the nature of their last communication, the situation they were in, who they were up against, and subsequent events afterwards, it is presumed that they were killed by Kihara Enshuu.
  2. 2.0 2.1 2.2 2.3 Due to the fact that Asai and Sakata were addressed in the same manga panel and visually identified nowhere else, it is not completely certain yet which is which. For the time being and for the sake of convenience, Sakata has been assumed to be the female on the right given the order of the names and the right-to-left reading and address (also applied for Yasu and Tsurigane in the neighboring panel).
