Paiman

Paiman is an extraterrestrial being with the endearing appearance of a red panda, entrusted with the weighty responsibility of leading Earth's Gatchaman forces. Boasting centuries of accumulated combat experience, he was personally commissioned by J.J. to serve as the commanding officer of the Tachikawa G-Squad. A stickler for protocol, he holds rules and prophetic directives in the highest regard — a stance that frequently puts him at his wit's end when dealing with Hajime Ichinose's unpredictable improvisations. Though his natural disposition leans toward timidity and he startles with surprising ease, the moment Earth faces a genuine crisis, his innate sense of leadership surges to the fore, compelling him to act with remarkable courage. He remains an indispensable pillar of the team's mission to protect the planet.
