Amagi Kureshima (呉島 天樹, Kureshima Amagi) was the patriarch of the Kureshima family with influence in the Yggdrasill Corporation, and the father of Takatora and Mitsuzane Kureshima.
History[]
Not much is known about his life, except that he performed experiments on young children, to make them fit to become future Yggdrasill workers. He is eventually killed by Touka Akatsuki, who was among one of the children Amagi experimented on, and a childhood friend of Takatora Kureshima.
Behind the Scenes[]
Portrayal[]
Amagi Kureshima was portrayed by the late Minori Terada (寺田 農, Terada Minori), who previously portrayed the main antagonist of Kamen Rider W, Ryubei Sonozaki.
Etymology[]
The kanji of his given name roughly translates into "tree of heaven", alluding to the tree motif in Yggdrasill Corporation.
Notes[]
- Not only do Amagi Kureshima and Ryubei Sonozaki share the same actor, but they are also a patriarch of their families and deceased. Both also used innocent children for their own benefits.
