This dropdown contains the synopsis of ’s story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise! |
---|
Formerly a gymnast who trained under her now-deceased mother, Maki uses her acrobatic skill in her fighting style to increase freedom of movement. Her attacks combine vertiginous leaps and summersaults with the fearsome, furious power of her kicks and throws. Maki has the ability to replicate most nearly any move she gets hit with or sees, and when in combat possesses an awe-inspiring resilience, presence, and strength of will. Since her relationship with her father is conflicted, she lives alone. Maki seems to enjoy street fighting for the 'rush' rather than any sense of revenge or honor. When not fighting, Maki tends to stick out in a crowd due to her unusual height (6 feet, which is very tall for a teen Japanese girl) and appearance, preferring to follow her quartet of friends quietly. Her younger sister comments that Maki is somewhat simple minded. Maki is reluctant to deal with several people obsessed with her. She becomes vulnerable to attack, for a moment, when she gets approached in any romantic way, especially with Julietta Sakamoto. Her signature moves are the "Air Spin Driver" and the " Air Cutter"; she is later shown to master the art of Air Flow. |

Nothing notable.
Notable Techniques
- Gymnastics: Maki's fighting style is greatly based around her gymnastic abilities. These abilities allow her to control the flow of battle through fighting mostly in the air and flipping around, granting her the title "Air Master", though she has shown that her style can work even indoors where she can't jump around in as she's able to use her flexibility and control of the air to spin around fast enough to make her own feet a deadly force of repeated attacks.
Other
Standard Tactics: Maki Aikawa uses her gymnastics style in combat, constantly using the current of the air and making herself a "precision instrument" to avoid and attack opponents. Constantly using her acrobatics along with redirecting the opponents own attacks against themselves.
Weaknesses: Nothing notable.
Note: While the manga somewhat diverges from the anime in plot, the anime is treated as a secondary canon.
Note 2: The Air Master manga has not been completed in English and it seems the scanlation team has stopped updating it, thus until any further updates, this profile deals with all the events up to Volume 5, Chapter 38.
