Gates (ゲイツ Geitsu) is best described as an old military man. He's currently in charge of keeping an eye on on Erich's private army on behalf of the Earth's military, but he sometimes works on Erich's behalf.

Concept

Name

His name could be a reference to Greg Gates, a character from another shmup, U.N. Squadron.

Appearance

In Shuusou Gyoku, Kioh Gyoku and Samidare's official art, Gates is shown to have thin black hair and a red military hat with a "V" on it. He wears a plain green soldier outfit with yellow buttons going down it. He also has blue eyes, a faint beard and an eye patch. In Kioh Gyoku, he isn't shown with a beard.

In Banshiryuu's official art, he looks just as same as before, except he now wears black rubber gloves and a thick light brown belt. He has his beard once again that's slightly bigger and he has a lighter with a cigarette in his mouth. He has what appears to be an "E" on his hat and not a "V".
