The developers of urban action Zenless Zone Zero have shared the Agent Intel on the last two members of Section 6 who are yet to be playable. Learn more about Asaba Harumasa and Hoshimi Miyabi!
Section 6 is an elite frontline unit of the of Hollow Special Operations that consists of four people that we know of: chief Hoshimi Miyabi, deputy chief Tsukishiro Yanagi, adorable oni Soukaku and one Asaba Harumasa who seems to be allergic to work yet still manages to do an impressive amount of it.
Proxies already had a chance to work alongside these professionals on a couple of occasions. Early on, Phathon was saved from a particularly nasty Ethereal by a timely arrival of Miyabi, Yanagi and Harumasa. While the Void Hunter herself undoubtedly stole the show, her companions still showed off their skills on the battlefield.
Tsukishiro Yanagi got her chance to shine in the latest Version 1.3: Virtual Revenge. This is also where players managed to learn of the goofier and more friendly side to these Ethereal hunters. In particular, the relationship between deputy chief herself and the young Oni Soukaku.
Now it’s time to learn more about the two final members of this group!
Asaba Harumasa – S-Rank Electric Attack
Harumasa is an easygoing and pleasant person as long as you are not trying to give him any extra work. It is said that as a child he was full of enthusiasm for everything… but that changed due to his master. Who is this master and how did their action or inaction affect Harumasa so remains a mystery – likely until the upcoming Version 1.4 that will also reveal more of his past!
While he seems lazy and annoyed at the prospect of more work, he’s still ready to take on overtime for his colleagues.
His companions such as Miyabi herself note that he is much stronger than he appears, and his skills on the battlefield speak for themselves. This S-rank Electric Attack character dashes around the battlefield and delivers devastating attacks with his bow and blades alike.
“All evil must be eradicated. What is ‘evil’? That’s for us to judge.”
Hoshimi Miyabi – S-Rank ??? Anomaly
The fox, the myth, the legend is finally almost here! And she manages to pose another mystery right before her arrival. During the game’s closed beta, Miyabi had been an Ice Attack agent, but her official Agent Intel indicates another story. Not only is she an Anomaly now, but her Element is one we have not seen yet, with many speculating she might be the first double-element character.
Quiet and stern (but not without her caring and goofy side) Miyabi is the descendant of one of the key figures in the suppression of the catastrophe. Her ancestor also known as the Swordmaster took down the Exaltist overseer. This type of family inheritance tends to put a heavy weight on someone’s shoulders, and Miyabi seems to handle it with grace.
“Simply imitating the swordsmanship of the strong will ultimately not lead to greatness. It’s like the newly bought photocopier in the office. It may be energy-efficient and eco-friendly, but its impassionate replications only add meaningless noise and distortion. This noise will become your weakness. You must not get careless.”
