Background
As a backbone of the RSSDF, the Self-Defenders are commonly served as peacekeepers who always defend the Land of the Rising Sun from the military aggressions at all costs as well as their peacekeeping operations around the world, including in Iraq and the Philippines, since the end of World War II with the collapse of the Imperial Japanese military. With their powerfully and technologically advanced weapons and equipment at their disposal along with a huge number of military personnel and keiretsu groups, just like in America, these Japanese servicemen are well-trained and equipped in order to prepare for strengthening their defenses in their home island country against the foreign invaders, including PRC/China, Russia, and North Korea, and even the ongoing North Korean intercontinental missile attacks, making it one of the countries that are impossible to invade due to their potential military strength. However, by the time the Kaijin Gundan has invaded the State of the Rising Sun in opposition to the Japanese hegemony, the Self-Defenders are all ready to engage war with their enemies, especially the invaders who threaten their land, as well as the ones they encountered in the exo-world known as Animatopia with the teleportation caused by the Isekai Machine, a machine that alters the world forever.

Appearance
The Self-Defender depicts as a standard issue JGSDF soldier. His military clothing contains the Japanese Type II or Type III Flecktarn camouflage pattern, Type 88 helmet with or without combat goggles, camo jacket with or without elbow pads, tactical vest (Combat Bulletproof Vest, Type II body armor or Type III body armor), camo combat gloves, camo pants with or without kneepads and Type 2 combat boots. Some of them wear dark green balaclava.
