Tutankhamen

Tutankhamen is the main antagonist of Sakura Wars: New York. He's an ancient Pharaoh from Ancient Egypt who has appeared in New York in 1929, aiming to become the Sun God to purify the world and create a massive paradise for his people. His actions had led him in conflict with the New York Combat Revue, especially its captain Shinjiro Taiga (in his stage name Peppermint) who closely resembles the Pharaoh's lover.

Appearance
Tutankhamen is a handsome Egyptian young man in his late teens with short black hair. He has striking red eyes with his right eye hidden under his hair.

He is seen wearing a black business suit with a black tie and a white shirt. He wears the Eye of Horus, a symbol representing royal power, around his neck and is also carrying a slim golden staff with him. He also has gold earrings on his left ear.

Personality
Tutankhamen is a mysterious individual who believes the human world has lost its way during its history. He is a very sensible person who has seen the pain his people have suffered when he wasn't able to help them. Due to his status as someone of royal blood, he aims to reform the world and create a massive eternal paradise without pain and chaos in which no one will ever suffer.

He has developed an interest in Peppermint not knowing it was actually Shinjiro Taiga, the Captain of the New York Combat Revue's Star Division. The young man's compassion and appearance reminds Tutankhamen of his lover, who has attempted to stop his plans many centuries ago. While the Pharaoh holds resentment towards his lover for betraying him, it is shown that he still likes her and ultimately wants nothing more than becoming the one that could protect everyone. As such, he seeks to become the Sun God.

While visiting a museum with Bastet, he has shown disgust in seeing many treasures from his country being exposed in an exhibit for the world to see, seeing it as a sign of Egypt's history and culture being stolen and used by America for its own profits. In fact, it appears that he hates the current society and its symbols as he has aimed to destroy the Statue of Liberty to purify the world.

Background
Tutankhamen was a young man from Ancient Egypt who was part of the royal family. He became Pharaoh when he was about 10 years old. As Tutankhamen grew up, he witnessed misery and desolation take over his people leaving him with a strong resolve to become a great leader for his people. To that end, Tutankhamen decided to become the Sun God.

However, when he attempted to move forward with his plans, he was stopped and eventually sealed away in a tomb for eternity. He remained sealed away until his tomb was discovered in the early 1920s, causing his reawakening. Several years later, in 1929, Tutankhamen made his way to New York City in the United States alongside his servant Bastet, the Egyptian Goddess of Cats, to proceed with his plans to reach godhood.

Episode 1 : Me and My Girlfriend
Tutankamen first appears on 5th Avenue where a standoff is happening between the NYPD and a trio of robbers who just robbed Kitty's boutique and holding the owner as hostage. As Tutankamen's sudden appearance confuses both sides, the young man silently walks over to one of the robbers who points his gun at him. Even though the robber threatens the young man to step back, Tutankhamen doesn't budge and casually comments on humanity's inability to change even after 3000 years. The Pharaoh silently grabs the robber's wrist causing the man ordering him to let him go. After a few seconds, Tutakhamen lets him go but the robber's wrist suddenly dissolves into sand. The Pharaoh silently watches as the robber helplessly felt his entire body dissolve into sand and die. Tutankhamen then left the scene as suddenly as he appeared, with the head detective confused by his disappearance.

Tutankhamen then went to a nearby building to meet up with his servant Bastet. As the young girl cheerfully greets him, the Pharaoh states the human world must change.
