From the recorded profile

This is a translation of the source description. Dates, affiliations and plans refer to the source’s publication context, not a guarantee of current activity.

We’re Riku, Umi, and Sora, responsible for PR for the Saitama Provincial Cooperation Office of the Japan Self-Defense Forces. We look like rhinos, but also resemble magatama, the symbol of Saitama Prefecture. We are herbivorous and proud of our gentleness, but we have inherited DNA that lets us defeat even a lion with one blow when angry.
