Asuka Torajirou is one of the protagonists in Digimon Universe Appli Monsters.

Profile[edit]

Astora (also spelled Astra) is a popular Apptuber, and is found by the other Appli Drivers through one of his videos. The catchphrase he usually uses during his videos is "Do I feel it? Don't I? I totally do!" (ノレる? ノレない? 超ノレる! Noreru? Nore nai? Chou noreru!?).

Astora's family owns a large school that teaches Japanese tea ceremony, and Astora is the successor in a very long family line. His parents are patient, and try not to put too much pressure on Astora about this, encouraging him to make his own choices about his life. Astora is a very energetic person, even hyperactive at times, though when at home in his family's formal setting, he is much more composed. His buddy Appmon is Musimon. The two are incredibly synchronized most of the time, and virtually never fight. When Gatchmon first suggests he Appliarise Musimon, the buddies agree to do it immediately (instead of hesitating like Haru and Eri).

Astora gets along with the other Appli Drivers well, after a rocky start with Eri, due to both their slightly brash personalities. After some time working together, they come to an understanding and become close friends. Astora is shown to be very popular in school, with all his classmates loving his App Tube videos.

Etymology[edit]

The name Torajirou is composed of the kanji for "tiger" (虎 tora) and "next son" (次郎 jirō). Possibly a reference to his cat-like face and the colors of his clothes. The surname Asuka means "flying bird". Possibly after the Asuka period of Japan, and a likely reference to his family being very traditional. His nickname "Astora" comes from a combination of the first two kana letters of his surname and name, "Asu" (あす) and "Tora" (とら), as well as a likely reference to Astra (アストラ Asutora), a software used for video broadcasting.
