A.N. — I waited as long as I could for the final woman to appear in this collection. Sadly, she still does not have an official name, or even much consensus on what she should be called even informally. It also seems fitting to have one of the first drabbles I wrote with this story in mind be one of the last posted.

363. Ippan Josei/Ordinary Woman

UA's towering doors were made for people like her, but Ippan Josei had given up on any heroic aspirations long ago. Too used to a society that didn't cater to her size, she resigned herself to a life lived in the background... well, as much as an over 200 cm tall green fox/shark woman could.

But now, amidst a wartime atmosphere and crumbling faith in heroes, Ippan had to keep believing in those charged with protecting civilians. Shelters turned her away, seeing Ippan as a villain. If the heroes thought the same, Ippan's optimism couldn't take another crippling blow.
