Akito Kurusu

"“Does it even matter anymore?” ―Akito Kurusu" Akito Kurusu (来くる 栖す 秋あ  人きと) is one of the original characters introduced in and the main protagonist of the crossover fighting game Namco X Capcom: Crisis.

He is a young man who has lost everything after a tragic moment and in a twist of fate, he is given another chance at life by becoming the superhero known as the Super Electromagnetic Knight Volthur (超ちょう 電でん 士じ ボルサー). It would take a long time for him to recover however.

Appearance
Akito is a young teenage boy of average height with brown spiky hair and three scars on the lower right of his cheek. On his eyes are brown irises. His signature outfit is a red shirt underneath a black jacket, black pants and white sneakers.

Personality
Prior to the events of Namco X Capcom: Crisis, as a baseball player, Akito was very energetic and hot-blooded, often determined to win, both the games and his friendship to people to some success, including his classmates and his… childhood friend. However, after a horrifying incident that changed his life for the worse, he was never the same and began distancing himself from everyone else. He became nearly emotionless and distant from expressing anything to other people other than angst and sadness. Even when he would become Volther, Akito is very reluctant to use his powers or whatever he has left, if there is any at all, for good.

Trivia

 * His superhero alias "Volther" is a combination of the word "volt" and the name "Arthur", the well-known legendary king in English folklore.
