Akame Ga Kill - Dr. Stylish

Dr. Stylish was a doctor and scientist in the service of the Empire as well as a member of the Jaegers. Dr. Stylish was a tall man with spiky black hair with a white patch and blue eyes. He wore glasses, a yellow suit with a blue shirt, a tie, and a white trench coat. Dr. Stylish was obsessed with two things: his experiments and anything he considered stylish. His preoccupation with the latter is exemplified in the first meeting of the Jaegers, where he has Seryu scatter rose petals through the air as he enters the room so that he may have a ‘stylish’ entrance. However, his main overriding focus is on his experiments.


In this regard he is shown to be both self-serving and duplicitous, going behind the backs of his superiors to obtain materials for his research such as his attack on Night Raid and conducting experiments that even the imperial capital has no knowledge of the creation of the humanoid Danger Beasts. Additionally, he feigns sympathy for any of his test subjects that are injured or killed in his service but in reality he cares nothing for any of them, seeing them only as bodies to experiment on. He has also been heavily hinted to be homosexual and enjoyed hitting on fellow male Jaegers except for Bols and also offered his own test subjects “a night alone with him” if they did well. Lastly, he seems to have been fairly well known and very well connected, having worked for several imperial agencies over time. His contacts included the unnamed commander of the Assassination Squad, Captain Ogre of the Capital Guard, the imperial spy Bolic, and the Prime Minister’s son Syura.


Wild Hunt’s Dorothea also came to the Empire with the sole purpose of meeting Stylish but he had already perished by the time she arrived. As a scientist Dr. Stylish had great intelligence and powerful observational skills. He was the only member of the Jaegers to discern that Tatsumi’s skill in combat was too high for him to be a simple blacksmith. Stylish also possessed great skill in the creation of poisons, with one of his most powerful being an invisible, odorless gas that could paralyze even trained assassins. He was a capable strategist as well, equipping several of his enhanced soldiers to combat specific enemies as well as preparing various hidden moves ahead of time. Stylish was in possession of the Teigu "Perfector", a set of gloves that increased the speed and dexterity of his fingers dramatically. This Teigu, along with Stylish’s medical knowledge, enabled him to heal any injury, short of death itself. The Teigu was also the tool with which Stylish performed the enhancement surgeries on his minions and created the weapons known as the ‘Judgment of the Ten Heavenly Kings’ used by Seryu Ubiquitous. After Stylish’s death the Teigu was taken by Night Raid who then sent it on to the Revolutionary Army’s headquarters.
