Kaname Date is the main protagonist of AI: The Somnium Files.
Bio[edit | edit source]
Date is part of the Advanced Brain Investigation Squad (or ABIS, for short) - a special unit of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police that can interface with a device called Psync Machine; allowing them to delve into the subconsciousness of suspected culprits to pry potential evidence from it. Which probably should be major breach of legal ethics, but don't worry - you play as the good guys.
As a neat side effect of his status as a 'Psyncer', Date also has his starkly missing left eyeball replaced with an artificial one. The latter houses his AI waifu, Aiba, who controls the eye's various sub-functions (from X-ray vision to thermal sight), and also serves as his avatar whenever Date goes rampaging inside the mind of a suspect. That no-one ever bothered to scan his one is the funniest thing.
In 8chanmania[edit | edit source]
Date fought in 8chanmania LXX, with him and Aiba forming yet another 50:50 team. Their first suspect of the night turned out to be Stork, but although the two could cleary see him (to Stork's dismay), the professional pervert still managed to wrestle them into submission.
