Sunfire - Character Guide
Story Act: Japan
Role: Ally
Voice Actor: Jonathan Tanigaki
Shiro Yoshida, Japan's Fire
Sunfire — Shiro Yoshida, Japan's premiere fire-wielding mutant — anchors the Japan act's superhero corner. His presence ties the Tokyo missions to the wider mutant politics of the story: with the Hand operating in the shadows and Trask's program reaching overseas, Shiro is the local power the plot bends around.
Role in the Campaign
Jonathan Tanigaki (Paradise, NCIS: Hawai'i) voices Shiro. The Japan act's set pieces — the plane, the arcade, the volcano-side ruins — are the game's visual showcase, and Sunfire's storyline is the thread that stitches them together.
Fire Against the Hand
The Hand's ninja encounters define mid-game combat: fast, parry-heavy group fights. Sunfire's corner of the story explains why the clan's operations matter beyond Japan — and why Logan cannot simply walk away after Deathstrike.
Japan is where blue-glow parries stop being optional — the Hand punishes dodge-spam harder than any enemy family before it.
