Daniel Anderson

Daniel Anderson (ダニエル・アンダーソン, ) is a male living in. At a young age, he was diagnosed with a serious form of cancer, and underwent countless rounds of chemotherapy, causing him to suffer from permanent hair loss. Despite the struggle that he has had to make peace with, his will to life had never wavered; an exceptionally amazing willpower pushed him to continue with his education and even continued to practice martial arts regardless of the difficulties he faced. His indomitable spirit kept him going, and almost as if it were karmic retribution for his strength of heart, a miracle appeared in the form of a detached from the defeated, which allowed him to make a full recovery. He could never understand what happened, a true miracle that even doctors could not explain, but chose to make use of his newfound health in the best way that he could think of; continuing his martial art training via a heightened routine, allowing him to further develop his physical prowess. Daniel sought to help the world as best as he could with the strength he had received, and in doing so, he became what the western world coins as a "superhero" — a personal childhood dream of his — being known by the public under the alias, "Starstrike" (星戦士 (スターストライク), Sutāsutoraiku; Japanese for "Star Warrior").

Behind the Scenes
Besides wanting to make an interesting character using the soul fragment concept for the site's project, the author intended for this character to also serve as a sort of homage to the family member of his friend who is also going through the struggles associated with cancer. The goal was to create a character that fought through his struggles no matter how difficult they become, by using one of the most terrible diseases that plague humanity in this age, in order to develop said character into an example of the indomitable spirit of those brave souls that fight through this illness every day. That said, the author hopes nothing on this page offends anybody, as it was meant to be a positive article.
