YATTE YARUZE!!!

Final Update of Ninja of Ninja Julie Liu Ming's profile is up!

Spoiler for Special Moves and Trivia:

Special Moves:

As with any self-respecting Belkaranger would have, Julie has her own set of special moves created through the combination of the various spells in her arsenal. Most of these are ranged attack spells made using her “Seven Swords” arsenal through her Impulse and Wizard spells.

Cannonball Shoot -

While Julie’s Boost Jump is more powerful than that of Asagi and Mayura’s, Julie can propel herself even farther by going though an oversized Gunner Wizard ring, essentially using herself as a projectile. While used mostly to enhance her mobility, this move can also be used offensively, with Julie blasting herself towards her enemies. This move can also be used to give Julie a form of “pseudo-flight” by “bouncing” into rings while in mid air to keep herself aloft, and in this manner the move is called “Ring Hop”. This move is quite dangerous with Julie having no control of her flight path once in the air, with the massive amount of energy needed to create such massive rings complicating matters, and is used only when absolutely necessary.

Blade Storm –

Asides from her Seven Swords, Julie also keeps an hefty load of physical throwing knives on her person. Julie can throw these knives using her Wizard spells to enhance their effectiveness, and her favorite method of using them is to summon all 6 of her Slash Wizard Rings around her and “load” them with knives using her teleport spell before unleashing them in a salvo against her enemies. As these Wizard Rings are maintained for as long as Julie needs them to she can keep loading them with knives, pelting her opponents with rain upon rain of knives, until her enemies are annihilated or she runs out of ammo.

Iron Blizzard –

This magically-taxing technique is similar in principle to Blade Storm, but using Julie’s Strike Balls and Gunner Wizard Rings instead. While Julie can only summon up to two Strike Balls she can keep creating them as long as her magic holds out, essentially giving her unlimited ammunition, unlike with her knives. Since Julie can only summon two balls at a time she needs a minimum of only two Wizard Rings, although she can enhance each ball’s already potent destructive power by using 3 rings per ball. And with each ball’s “Bunshin Makyuu” splitting ability she can unleash a wide-area torrent of magical explosive firepower at any spot where lots of death and destruction is needed, making it Julie’s most powerful technique.

Sturm Bolt –

The best and most concise way to describe this move would be: A Gunner/Blaze Impulse-propelled Baseball Bat, typically Julie’s Shuriken Bat, with a 90% knock-out rate. This is Julie’s most effective weapon anti-stupid weapon.

------

“…”

“That’s all she ever uses it for anyway…”

------

Blade Breaker –

While Julie’s Seven Swords are too valuable to be used as mere Wizard Ring ammunition, there have been cases when Julie has used them as such against powerful enemies due to their power and enhanced magical abilities. Julie can launch up to six of her swords at once in Blade Storm fashion, though their uniqueness means using them in this manner is a one-shot affair, and she’ll have to recover her blades manually, though she can use her teleport spell to “recall” them if they’re less than 10 meters away.

Buster Homerun –

One of Julie’s strangest uses for her Shuriken Bat is to use it to deflect and redirect an enemy ball-type physical or magic shot by batting it right back at them, which is accomplished through a specially-cast Triangle Shield on the batting head. While its practicality in combat is questionable, it has proven to be a useful move in certain cases, the threat of collateral damage aside.

"... And I thought I was the only one with Gunbuster style attacks..."

"So that's where all your Buster Form attacks are from..."

-----

OMNI Slash –

Julie’s most powerful single sword technique, this is one of her more powerful trump cards. Julie charges at her enemy using Sonic Move with a dashing slash. If it misses, Julie maintains momentum by bouncing off a waiting Gunner Wizard Ring and recasting Sonic Move, redirecting her charge at the enemy in the blink of an eye without losing speed. By changing her orientation and deflection from each “bounce”, Julie can attack from different directions each time, confusing her enemy and allowing her to press on the attack until he is overwhelmed. This technique allows her to maintain the advantages of Sonic Move without its time limitations, and it can be used to overwhelm a single opponent, or an entire battalion of foes.

Though powerful, the intense forces on Julie’s body from the abrupt and nauseating changes in direction and constant high speed movement can leave her highly exhausted and strained, and if her attack fails she would be too weak and incapable of defending herself from attack.

Blade of Vengeance: OMNI Blade –

The ultimate of Julie’s Special Moves, and her most powerful melee technique, feared by all those who’ve seen its power. The OMNI Blade is a remarkably simple concept on paper: At the first opportunity Julie launches her enemy high into the air with a powerful strike, then assaults the enemy with OMNI Slash while at the same time launching a random sequence of timed Blade Breakers with 6 of her swords. By recalling each sword before it gets out of her range and re-launching them through Wizard Rings from different directions Julie can unleash an unceasing barrage of swords from all sides that will tear apart even the toughest enemies till he is utterly and unquestionably obliterated. For those unlucky enough to have forced Julie to use this technique, it is like a hail of blades descending upon them from all sides – from above, below, left, right, front, back, and everywhere in between - leaving them with no room to escape.

This ultimate technique is incredibly difficult to execute, for Julie not only has to attack the enemy at high speed, but also coordinate the launch, recall, and relaunch of all 6 flying blades – and timing her attacks to not get hit by her own weapons, on top of evading and anticipating enemy counterattacks and maintaining her own altitude with Wizard Rings. This overwhelming complexity makes this move extremely dangerous and risky for Julie to perform under normal situations, and it is a move most effective only against individual targets and opponents.

Also, the very nature of the OMNI Blade makes it impossible for Julie herself to WANT to use it, no matter the situation; As the sadistic epitome of excessive overkill, only Trisha, Julie’s persona of vengeance and hatred, has the mentality and killer desire to execute this move flawlessly, and thus OMNI Blade can only be unleashed when this Avenger takes over the reins.

So far, this move has only been recorded in action only 4 times in Julie’s entire life so far – with all four victims successfully terminated with extreme prejudice, including recently the infamous S-ranked rogue Knight Sven, which helped spread the terrifying legend of this technique amongst criminals and the TSAB alike.

--------

“That humongous macho guy always wielding this strange looking sword, with an ego larger than his already mammoth biceps. To think that he got chopped up by a girl three times smaller than him, serves him right…”

“In other words Kay, never piss her off. Not even I would be able to keep up.”

“Coming from you, I’ll believe that…”

Trivia:

- Depending on which persona is currently active, Julie addresses Asagi in different ways.

As Ocean, she addresses Asagi as “Leader”.
Rin and Dell call her “Asa”.
Rusty refers to her as “Ms. Colwell”.
As Virgil, she’s known as “Sister”.
Tury playfully calls her “Big Sis”.
Yen’s name for her is “Comrade”.
Catty calls her by her complete name “Asagi Colwell”.
Tara has nicknamed her “A” or “C”.
Saul doesn’t refer to Asagi by name, only by “You”… as he does to everyone else.
And finally, Trisha strangely enough refers to her as “Asa-nee”.

This is typically the method by which most people who know her recognize who Julie’s current persona is in charge. Strangely enough, Julie more or less calls Mayura by “Mayura” or “Mayu” no matter which persona is in charge, asides from Saul.

- Julie’s disguises are more or less perfect to the point that most mages would need to concentrate in order to pick out her unique magical signature. Strangely enough, Asagi can confidently identify Julie at a glance no matter what disguise she uses, unlike Mayura who would have difficulty picking out the girl without at least a proper scan.

The only time Asagi has failed to identify Julie’s disguise was then the latter disguised herself as Mitsuomi Takahashi, the actor behind Boukenger’s BoukenRed, in order to lure the stalking and awe-struck Asagi away from the real Takahashi and prevent an embarrassing disaster from taking place. Thankfully the matter was resolved without much incident, and the Belkarangers got to claim their individual mementos from the star.

“Fangirls.”

-----

- While she was introduced to Super Sentai first due to Asagi’s influence, Julie has a slight preference towards the Metal Heroes series of Japanese Tokusatsu shows, with her favorite of that series being “Uchuu Keiji Shaider” (Space Sheriff Shaider).

Her all time favorite Toku character though is Shurikenger from the Super Sentai title “Ninpuu Sentai Hurricanger”, reflected in her use of his costume as one of her barrier jacket designs. The character’s story as a faceless ninja forever disguising himself as other people is one of his appeals to Julie’s own predicament, not to mention his love of baseball and over-the-top attitude, and when using her incidentally named “Shurikenger” form she copies out his mannerisms almost perfectly. When speaking about him, Julie always refers to him as “Shurikenger-sama”.

- Ever since she could remember, Julie has had an incredible aptitude for acting and drama. This aspect of her makes a lot of her duties as an infiltrator possible, and it is also the base for her representation of her various personas. Despite this talent though, Julie has repeatedly denied the invitations, requests and suggestions of her entering show business.

- Julie has incredible access to all manner of digital and human intelligence resources, all due to the influence of her eldest brother and current head of LM Digital Andrew Liu Ming, who has lots of connections in various intelligence agencies in Ordered Space due to their reliance on equipment and services provided by their family’s company, and her sister Tina, who works as a TSAB Intelligence field agent. While Julie is not cleared to access high-level sensitive information, she is still able to gain leads and tips on Lost Logia movements and locations from her sources, invaluable to SGS operations.

- Despite being the self-proclaimed romantic of the bunch, Julie has so far failed to attract or maintain a relationship with any guy she has been introduced to, most often due to… interference from her various personas popping out due to her almost chronic nervousness and confusion as Ocean when it comes to matters of love. Many horror stories abound, from Trisha threatening to cut off a suitor’s private parts, to finding out her partner had a Lolita complex when Tury showed up, and even Saul’s body appearing just as her date French kissed her…

------

“… and I heard the guy needed SEVERE psychiatric help soon after”

“Amen.”

“Should I add in the part about Gil?”

“Gilliam? Gilliam Aker?”

“Yes him, who seems to be the most persistent in the pursuit of Julie’s feelings…

On the other hand, maybe not… It won’t be fun if Julie finds out Gil has feelings for her from reading this…”

“…

And you say I’M evil…”

“It’s the man-and-woman-who-like-each-other-but-can’t-seem-to-say-it-yet-everybody-else-knows scenario, it’s much better if they find it out themselves!”

“… I give up.”

And that ends the profile for the three primary Belkarangers, but like all Super Sentai you need additional members, so stay tuned!
