Series Synopsis
Satoshi
Shirase (voiced by Kazuya Nakai) is a freelance programmer who goes by the code
name BPS (Battle Programmer Shirase). A computer genius, Satoshi is contracted
by a variety of organizations to perform high level cyber functions, such as
hacking and security. Even though his level of skill is unmatched, Satoshi
never charges money for his services. Instead clients make payments in the form
of rare or high tech electronics.
Living a
quiet and secluded life, Satoshi has few strong relationships; the major
exception being his elementary school niece, Misao Amano (voiced by Misato Fukuen). Actually, due to a complicated family structure, Misao is really
Satoshi’s great-niece despite him being no older than thirty.
Misao is a
shy girl, but loves and cares for her uncle very much; choosing to address him
as onii-chan (Japanese for older brother). Despite how close they are, Misao
does not know of Satoshi’s real profession.
For whatever
reason, Satoshi will often find himself in a one sided battled with cyber
terrorist Rintarou Ose (voiced by Yasuhiro Takato), better known as King of
America. While Rintarou is a skilled hacker in his own right, he pales in
comparison to Satoshi with the result being utter humiliation for the former.
