Lieutenant Colonel (Dating Kommander) Souya Togo

Isang dating magaling na pilotong pang-giyera, pinotektahan niya si Zin Hizaki sa isang pagsalakay ng WORMs at nasugatan ang kanyang kamay sa dating mga digmaan laban sa WORMs at hindi na siya makakalipad pa. Sa ngayon, siya ang pinuno ng 13th Aviation Corp (ang Sonic Diver squadron). Si Eika ay isang pinunong squadron at ang kanyang sumusunod. Ang kanyang tungkulin ay turuan ang mga bagong piloto, sundin ang mga utos ng nakakataas at siguraduhing ang mga pangangailangan ay naibigay. Siya lamang ng miyembro ng Koryu na hindi nagsusuot ng tradisyonal ng uniporme. Sa kabila nito, sinusuot niya ang lumang leather flight jacket na may pakpak na bungo sa likod, puting shirt, at blue jeans. Siya rin ay nasisiyahan sa pangingisda (kahit na hindi pa siya nakakahuli nito). Bukod sa tatlong tao na tinitignan siya bilang isang non-sensitive na tao, siya ay nag-aalaga pa rin sa kanila. Ang dahilan kung bakit siya istrikto sa mga piloto ay para sa kabutihan ng mga ito.
