On one occasion, because some functions at the Mobile Rescue Police headquarters weren't working properly, she accidentally entered the base through the shooter in the school gym, while following Gō. Although Kasumi hoped she could meet the driver of Interceptor, she passed out due to being sick, and was later told that the incident was a dream, although she still believed it was real. This is helped by the fact that she met the dog Axel both inside and outside of the base.

Along with his subordinates Yūsuke and Akira, he instigates various disasters and incidents against the Mobile Rescue Police. He has a one-sided rivalry with Jō Kurumada and Takahito Saionji, because in the past he once developed a robot for disaster aide, but his project was rejected in favor of the Drive Head project due to safety issues. Although he is obsessed with revenge he doesn't believe in harming outsiders. He is a passionate fan of Sasagawa, loves to watch her Fortune Corner and has saved her from danger.

- A mysterious AI that lurks in various computers. It creates all sorts of disasters. When it invades a machine, the shape of an eyeball appears on-screen. It also causes disasters using Black Chips.

It is made of negative human emotions and capable of self-evolving. Its ultimate goal is to wipe out humanity. In the web series, it gains a new body. This body was originally a completely self-functioning android called TF-3, which was constructed for a terraforming project. The Evil AI took it over after being defeated in battle against the Drive Heads, and it took the name, “Terra”.
