Even with a metal spine, Takara lives

Even with a metal spine, Takara lives. 

Being the experimental subject of an eccentric professor, he tries to become one of the many civilians in the island. It's working.

It's working, until it isn't.

Takara's life began with a broken spine and a kid with colour-changing eyes.

And rehabilitation. Lots of rehabilitation.


He looked like he got smashed into a thousand rocks then dropped from a Sky Island and lived, and he had all the shattered bones in his body to prove it. Some old coot from the corner of the island thought him interesting, picked him up, and fixed him up.

Living life with a metal skeleton wasn't too hard once you got used to it. People stared, he overheated a lot, the limbs creaked with every step, and he needed a good oiling around every few days, but this beats dying by a long shot.


How such technology existed in West Blue, Takara really wasn't about to question it. He was an experiment, and an experiment of the Professor he will be.

Now, about the kid with colour-changing eyes.

The moment Takara's surgery scars healed and he got used to the lumpy metal parts, he had dragged the boy into a bath house and scrubbed fossils of dirt off their skins (seriously, is this kid a human or a gorilla? How could the Professor just let the kid live in the jungle?) before clothing him in something more decent to wear.
