~ Shiroko
Shiroko Sunaookami (砂狼シロコ in Japanese) is one of the characters in the 2021 roleplay game Blue Archive who studies in Abydos High School and wields an Assault Rifle, and one of the protagonists of the 2024 Anime Adaptation of the same name. She is the field captain and one of the five members of the Countermeasures Committee (or Foreclosure Task Force/FTC), the only club left in Abydos High School. Due to the club and school's conditions, Shiroko and her friends do their best to keep their school alive. However, Shiroko tends to come up with ridiculous proposals, such as robbing banks for quick cash.
She was originally Anubis, the God of Death, one of the Nameless Gods worshipped by the Nameless Priests who lost their identity long ago, but when she collapsed with no memory of her past and was raised by the Foreclosure Task Force, she came to live her life not as Anubis, but as Shiroko Sunaookami.
She appeared during the main story's first volume, "The Foreclosure Task Force", as one of the main protagonists. She and her friends were trying their best to save their school before getting pushed back heavily, resulting in them requesting the aid of Blue Archive's main character, the Sensei of Schale. Shiroko and her friends then made a brief appearance in the third chapter of the third volume, "Eden Treaty", where they helped a friend named Hifumi Ajitani. She also appeared in the final volume, "Where All Miracles Begin", playing as a supporting character in the first chapter and as one of the main protagonists of the fourth chapter. Shiroko also appeared in two side events, "Abydos Resort Restoration Committee" as one of the main protagonists, and its sequel, "Momoyodou Beach Bar Franchising Plan" as a supporting protagonist.
Let's rob the bank. You can earn 100 million yen in 5 minutes.

~ Shiroko (Paraphrased).
She appears to be quite the troublemaker. Her idea of reviving her school is to commit a bank robbery since it's quick and easy money. She has the equipment, she can memorize building blueprints and the guards' movement patterns, and even made her own masks.
During her first appearance in the story, she carried Sensei on her back due to Sensei's exhaustion. When they arrived at Abydos High School, her friends, also known as the Foreclosure Task Force, immediately assumed Shiroko was carrying a dead body and was even ready to hide it, suggesting that similar situations happen regularly.
She also makes an appearance as a Thrill-Seeker. In Volume 1 of the Main Story, the Abydos school district was intruded by a club named the Disciplinary Committee, also known as the Prefect Team, which originated from another school named Gehenna Academy. When Hina Sorasaki, the club president, appeared, the other Task Force members tried to avoid fighting her, but Shiroko had other plans. Shiroko being a Thrill-Seeker was also expressed in a different episode from the same volume where their school was being attacked by an organization called Kaiser Corporation who legally kidnapped one of their members, Hoshino Takanashi. Despite the club's failed attempts to fight back, Shiroko wanted to take desperate measures and infiltrate the organization herself to retrieve Hoshino back but was stopped by her friends as they needed a better plan.
In the "Abydos Resort Restoration Committee" side event, she encountered another student named Wakamo Kosaka, who seemingly appeared with the intent of harming Shiroko, her friends, and Sensei who was with them at the time, when in reality was not the case. Seeing her, Shiroko showed a belligerent side of hers, quickly taking fire against Wakamo because of both instinct and jealousy.
However, despite her being a troublemaker, she is a soft-spoken girl who cares deeply for her friends to the extent of willing to do anything to protect her friends and her school.

~ Shiroko (Riding)
Shiroko likes sports. A bit too much, even. She enjoys exercising a lot, running several kilometers daily and biking extremely long distances. This outfit was worn by Shiroko for her one-time dream of biking all around the perimeter of Kivotos, the city where the game takes place. Although it's a "city", its size is incredibly huge, very unusual for biking, but Shiroko wants to do it regardless.

~ Shiroko (Swimsuit) to Sensei
A swimsuit fit for survival near the beachside. This is the outfit Shiroko wore during two side events, "Abydos Resort Restoration Committee" and its sequel "Momoyodou Beach Bar Franchising Plan." Shiroko and her friends won a free resort ticket, so they decided to have a vacation and headed to the resort on their helicopter. However, the helicopter came crashing down, leaving them in an unexpectedly broken down resort. They then decided to repair the resort and their helicopter with Shiroko in charge of getting food.
Shiroko shares similarities with Rosmontis from Arknights, being both silver-haired anthromorphs and voiced by Yui Ogura with soft-spoken natures.
Shiroko's weapon name, WHITE FANG 465, features Japanese wordplay. The number 4 can be pronounced as "shi", 6 as "ro", and 5 as "ko", meaning her weapon can be pronounced as "Shiroko."
