All of them are problematic in this regard.
- Kinzo is most likely irrevocably dead. Whatever plans he made need to be executed by someone else and cannot predict the randomly changing events.
- Genji is such a complete enigma that he's pretty much a non-character. Unless you consider Ronove to be saying the things Genji should be saying but isn't, there's pretty much no action Genji is seen taking of his own initiative.
- Nanjo is less of an enigma, but he is seen actually doing and saying so little that he could well be replaced by a medical tricorder.
- Rudolf is almost always out of the game as early as possible.
- Piece-Beatrice's existence is questionable at best.
Basically, the only one left is George, who's pattern of action is unusually straightforward... as if he doesn't care what anyone else thinks, he is always shown to be ready for a frontal confrontation, not announcing his opposition to the family over Shannon, nor actually hiding it.
