Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed.When the blades are embedded in a target, Linna can send an electrical current through the cables to electrocute her foes. In the Bubblegum Crash OVA, Linna receives a new weapon in the form of projectile blades attached to steel-fiber cables. Her arms are equipped with "knuckle-bombers", devices that deliver explosive impacts when Linna punches her foes. Her suit is equipped with nano-molecular steel-fiber ribbons that extend behind her helmet and can cut through just about anything. She is fast and nimble, capable of striking down enemies before they know what hit them.
Linna's Hard Suit is green and is fashioned in accordance to her athletic skills. Though not as passionate about her work as a Knight Saber as Sylia, Priss, or Nene, Linna contributes with her humanity and caring attitude. Linna is a good person who likes to help others out when they need it. She does what she thinks is right and believe to be the best for others. She does not see herself as noble, does not spend her life contemplating revenge, and is not a justice seeker. She was devastated until Sylia Stingray approached her and offered her a job with the Knight Sabers.īecause she is 'normal' in comparison to the other Knight Sabers, Linna is also at times referred to as shallow. They were not impressed, however, and Linna did not get the part. When Linna's long-awaited 'change of a lifetime' came along, that to be in an exclusive dance troupe, Linna auditioned, putting forth all her talent and abilities in a show for the judges. She competed on pageants and won the title of Miss Tahoto All Raisin Princess.
All of these things were combined to make her a great dancer. Linna was athletic and loved dance and martial arts. Linna got jobs, made friends, and moved along with the flow of life, all the while keeping herself in shape in case the chance of a lifetime, to become an entertainer, came about. Linna was fifteen at the time, older than the other two, and naturally optimistic, making it easier for her to deal with the loss of her parents, who had been killed during a Boomer rampage. Linna, like both Sylia and Priss, was orphaned at a young age and forced to fend for herself. Linna Yamazaki is a member of the Knight Sabers, the main protagonists of the Bubblegum Crisis series.
