BUSTER, THE FIRST

BUSTER, THE FIRST is a major character in both the 1979 and 2004 series, with his appearances slightly diminished in the 2004 series to conserve on time. He makes several appearances throughout both series to aid Saturn on his quest. His end goal is to defeat High Empress Celestia and end put a permanent end to her overly powerful stand. He is effectively a walking deus ex machina, advancing the plot as necessary and getting Saturn out of scenarios that would otherwise have been impossible to live through. He is exceptionally powerful thanks to his stand, 『SEXBOMB』.

Appearance
BUSTER, THE FIRST is a seemingly Undead entity, with a skull head and an unseen body. (insert his body ehre because josh decided to fucking make it skeletor and i dont want to describe it in case we change it later)

Synopsis
BUSTER, THE FIRST appears for the first time in a dream in episode 1, wading through a harsh, red sandstorm before Saturn wakes up. He is not seen until episode 16, when he saves Saturn from plummeting to his doom while trying to save an old lady. Though he is seen by the audience, Saturn never catches a glimpse of him. The first time Saturn sees BUSTER in real life is in episode 42, when he is saved once again after being almost fatally shot while battling Lunar Driver and one of her cohorts. He kills the cohort with ease, forcing Lunar Driver to retreat. It is at this point that he reveals his intentions to Saturn, stating that he is in fact the Planet Master of Mercury, and the only living Denizen of Mercury after High Empress Celestia's Murcurian Purge. He gives Saturn some important advice before departing once more.

From this point, BUSTER is not seen until the climax of the series. However, in the BUSTER, THE FIRST spin-off manga, it is revealed that BUSTER has been battling against the forces of Celestia over the course of the entire series, and had been attempting to use Saturn to dethrone Celestia and avenge his people. It is currently unknown whether or not he succeeds in his goal after the events of the main series.

Relationships
Saturn: BUSTER appears as a mentor toward Saturn through the series. However, because it is later revealed that BUSTER had been attempting to use Saturn for his own gains, it is unknown how he truly feels about Saturn.

High Empress Celestia: It is made blatantly clear that BUSTER hates Celestia with all of his heart, despite his lack of emotion otherwise. He has dedicated his entire existence toward killing her, or exiling her with no stand.

Trivia
