Cast — Updated Pre-Launch

Characters

Only two characters have been shown in detail so far, both from the demo. Denshattack!'s full cast — including the "vibrant pack of outcasts" referenced in official marketing and the game's rival bosses — hasn't been revealed yet. This page expands at launch.

Protagonist

Emi Araki

Emi Araki is Denshattack!'s playable protagonist — a train courier by trade who already has real driving skill before the story begins. After encountering the underground Denshattack scene, she drops her delivery job to compete directly, working her way up against a series of rival "Denshattackers." One developer described her as designed to be a stand-in for the player: "always looking for adventure" and ready to chase whatever opportunity passes by — "no pun intended," as the developers themselves joked, given her train-courier background.

Supporting

Fernando

Fernando is introduced as a Denshattack photographer and fanatic — he's the one who first introduces Emi to the underground train-trick contest scene, setting the story in motion. His exact role beyond the opening has not been detailed in previews yet.

Unconfirmed

Rival Crews & Bosses

Official marketing references "a vibrant pack of outcasts," "rival crews," and a roster of bosses to defeat — at least 8 drivers faced before reaching a final "spoiled gyaru champion," according to early demo coverage. None of these characters have been named or shown individually in detail yet. This section will be filled in once the full cast is revealed, likely close to or at the July 15 launch.

Sourced from: official developer interviews (Nintendo Life), hands-on preview coverage (Niche Gamer, TheGamer, Checkpoint Gaming), and official Steam/marketing copy. Character details are intentionally minimal right now because the developers have only revealed this much publicly — nothing here is speculation.
