Bakuga Tsukikage

Bakuga Tsukikage is the current prime minister of Japan and the board chairman of Akatsuki Academy. He is also one of the Numbers (12 Apostles) of Rebellion.

Appearance
Bakuga is a middle aged man with a fit body.

Personality
Bakuga seems to be a devious man, purposely distorting facts and truths with rumors all to push his plans along. He also seems to be very arrogant as he is assured that Akatsuki academy will trump all who oppose it. Later it's revealed that he is a man who cares deeply for his country, and is ready to do anything for the well-being of the people of Japan.

History
Bakuga was previously the board chairman of Hagun Academy prior to retiring from that post and becoming a politician where he became the eventual prime minister of Japan.

The Eighth School
Bakuga reveals himself as the board chairman of the Akatsuki Academy after the attack on Hagun Academy, using his position to allow the Akatsuki Academy to formally entered the Seven Stars Sword Art Festival as the eighth school.

Party Crashers
Bakuga is seen at a hotel room, talking with his old student and now chairman of his old school Kurono Shinguuji. They discuss what his true intents are and Kurono is able to figure out that Bakuga wants to separate from the League of Mage-Knight Nations. He leaves the room looking forward to the fight Hagun students will provide for Akatsuki Academy.

A Fresh Bloody Truth
Bakuga later talks with Ikki, before his semi-final match against Amane Shinomiya. Bakuga tells Ikki about Amane's past, so that Ikki can provoke Amane. He does this so Amane won't withdraw from the Festival, because of his respect for Ikki.

Bakuga's plan works to a point, as Amane doesn't withdraw, but he is defeated by Ikki. Ouma Kurogane is also defeated in the semi-finals by Stella. This leads to all Akatsuki members being eliminated from the Festival, leading to Bakuga's plans failing. He later confronts Nene, who questions if Bakuga used his ability to find out about Amane's past.

The Festival Is Over
Bakuga, along with Nene, Kurono and the fourth ranked in the KOK A-League Ascarid, confront Ikki and Stella. Bakuga tells them that with his ability he has seen the League of Mage-Knight Nations losing in a war against the Union. He planed to break ties with the League of Mage-Knight Nations and join the Union, but the loss of Akatsuki lead to the public being satisfied with the League, and not wanting to split from it. Bakuga then tells Ikki and Stella that he hopes they can change the future.

A Night of Massacre
Bakuga appears at the destroyed headquarters of Rebellion and meets Kouzou Kazamatsuri. Bakuga used his ability to reveal that All-Goal, was the one who destroyed the headquarters. Bakuga and Kouzou are then informed that Abraham Carter, the strongest in the Union, is heading to the headquarters.
