Saki Asamiya (麻宮 サキ, Asamiya Saki) is the main character of the show Sukeban Deka. A former delinquent, she was recruited by the "Dark Agency" to solve crimes in high schools for them in exchange for delaying her mother's execution.

Character History[]

At a young age, Saki's mother was framed for her father's murder. Not much is known of Saki's life before she is recruited, but she became a sukeban (delinquent girl gang leader) at Takanoha High, and ended up in a reform school. Due to her difficult life, Saki was very tough and had few friends. At the age of 16, she was recruited by the Dark Agency, a secret police agency, to be a sukeban deka, or undercover detective. Saki resisted, but the head of the Dark Agency, the Dark Director, blackmailed her with postponing and possibly stopping her mother's planned execution. She was given a metal yo-yo, which acted as a lethal weapon and had a police badge inside of it. With her position as a seemingly ordinary highschooler, she was able to solve crimes within schools that a regular police force wouldn't be able to. Through her work, she was able to discover secrets from her past and reconcile with her mom.

Notes[]

Portrayal[]

  • Played by Yuki Saito in the original live action TV series from 1985-86

Trivia[]

  • Although her manga counterpart is right-handed, Saki in the TV series was made a forced left-hander (she broke her dominant right hand by punching a girl at the reform school) because actress Yuki Saito was left-handed.
