- Date: "'Nice punch.'"
- Bodyguard: "Well, let me use a line too."
- Bodyguard: "'This is the end for you, chump.'"
- —A Bodyguard warns at Date in Sejima Residence[2]
The Bodyguards, or just individually as the Bodyguard, are a group of characters featured in AI: THE SOMNIUM FILES and the Lemniscate YouTube series.
They are a group of bodyguards originally hired by Congressman So Sejima to serve as protective detail for him and his family. They have served under the Sejima family for at least 6 years.
Design[]
These Bodyguards are medium height but stocky men with a pair of sunglasses over their bald heads and a wired headset on their right ear. They are all wearing a black blazer, white shirt and black tie. The lower body is dressed in black suit trousers and leather shoes.
These bodyguards may all wear silicone mask to conceal their real appearance, and everyone is equipped with a pistol.
Personality[]
These bodyguards said very little, and they basically only carried out their work of protecting the safety of So Sejima's house seriously. But one of them seems to have lustful tendencies (this one could to be Mamoru Bodai). When Date lies him into saying "A porno magazine on the ground," he'll be fooled and look to the ground.
Story[]
During the investigation of the New Cyclops Serial Killings case, as long as Kaname Date entered the Sejima Residence, he would be driven away by bodyguards not long after the questioning of So Sejima.
In Mizuki Route, Date confirmed that So Sejima is the New Cyclops Killer (actually, Saito Sejima, who is parasite inside his father's body) and broke into the Sejima Residence after rescuing Mizuki Okiura, then was surrounded by a group of bodyguards. After a bodyguard gave the order to eliminate the two, all the bodyguards rushed out of the mansion. With the help of Aiba, Date and Mizuki knocked down all the bodyguards, and broke into the mansion to search for So.
In Resolution Route, after Saito Sejima's death, it was likely that So Sejima had dismissed all of his bodyguards since then. A lone Bodyguard named Mamoru Bodai, confessing at Mama that he punched So in his face when he quitted and told that So was a "piece of crap." during his drinking in Marble. He was later hired by Tokiko Shigure to serve her as part of Naixatloz.
