Sho Mikagami (三上 翔, Mikagami Sho), best known as his hero alias Danzaiver (ダンザイバー), is one of the playable characters in Evil Zone.

Story[]

Danzaiver01

Sho while transforming into Danzaiver during the opening sequence.

Hailing from Planet Izanda, Sho Mikagami joined the All Galactic Defense System, and was assigned as the special inspector in charge of secretly defending the Earth and surrounding area. This is no easy job, because Earth is threatened by the evil organization Cryos (short for "Cry of Chaos") and their mysterious, tyrannical leader Gillaclva. Using their fearsome Meikigai biological weapon, Cryos creates hordes of monsters-of-the-week from hapless people, animals and vegetation. How can one man, Sho Mikagami, hope to stop them? Perhaps he couldn't. Perhaps no one man could. But DANZAIVER can!

Sho was well-outfitted for his job. The foremost of his weapons is the Tactical Frame, the suit of battle armour he is bonded to and can call to him with the magical word "Zerochaku!" (he chose this word himself, but its significance is unknown). With the Danzai-Blade and his gun Vicetriver, he would already be a formidible foe. But he also has access to his space ship, the tactical carrier Seingreed. Aside from communications, scanners, teleportation and all sorts of other exciting capabilities, Seingreed can deploy the satellite weapon Geiborg, which in turn can use the devastating orbital laser Seingbraze!

He is also accompanied by the twin sisters, Yuri (subservient nice girl) and Ruri (hot-tempered girl), who are in charge of search operations and attack reinforcements from Seingreed, respectively. Obviously, they both love Sho. Obviously, he is oblivious to this. Obviously, Ruri hits him a lot. You know the score.

Danzaiver, his satellite, and the two girls onboard were presumably drawn along by Alty's spell to I-Praseru. However, Yuri had previously been trapped in the Evil Zone by an unscrupulous magician in Finistere Kingdom in order to empower the magical confinement area, thus forcing Sho's hand: he would have to set forth to defeat the fearsome villain, Ihadulca, and rescue Yuri!

And then get back home, so he can play video games again, his true love.

In the story mode, Sho is mostly focused on rescuing Yuri as Danzaiver since the power from their base of operations, the Seingreed is connected to the magical summoning caused by Alty Al Lazel when they are summoned at I-Praseru. During the second stage, Sho as Danzaiver was injured during his fight against Keiya Tempouin, leading Ruri to became concerned and worry towards him until he reveals it to her. Sho later battles Ruri who controls a blue version of himself because he is mostly got hurt during his fights. After defeating this, he tells Ruri that he will give him coffee once he found and rescue Yuri which she accepts. He as Danzaiver later battles Ihadurca because his nemesis Gillaclva is one of Lea's incarnations and has a similar magical ability as her.

Reunited as twin sisters, Yuri reveals to Ruri about Sho's real intentions as the latter overhears their conversation causing Ruri to beat him up angrily into a pulp. Afterwards, the twins became in better terms while Sho remains sad and disappointed after getting beaten up angrily by Ruri who now learns about his real intentions from Yuri.
