Shinobu is one of Travis Touchdown's closest allies who sees him as a friend and mentor. Though an early battle with FU left her incapacitated for most of the story, she still acts as one of the main driving forces of Travis on his journey to defeating the aliens that have come to earth.

All Shinobu Interactions

Travis can talk to Shinobu in the room at the back of the laboratory.

Episode Shinobu Interaction
2 Travis apologizes to a comatosed Shinobu for not being able to save her.
3 As Shinobu sleeps, Travis begs her to wake up, as he claims that he has more to teach her.
4 Shinobu wakes up momentarily and recognizes Travis. Travis says if she wakes up fully, he'll teach her his favorite super special suplex—the Reverse Armsault that Japanese Pro Wrestler Akira Maeda used against Paul Orndorff.
5 Shinobu utters the word "battle." Travis says that the most glorious battles are the ones that aren't filmed. Travis recalls a secret wrestling match at Green Dome Maebashi, but he's unsure who participated in it, between Scott Norton, Bam Bam Bigelow, and Tony Halme.
6 Shinobu tells Travis that she's ready to fight. Travis then asks Shinobu if she's ready to drop a wrestling move as deadly as Akira Hokuto's Northern Lights Bomb.
7 Shinobu begs Travis to let her kill FU. Travis tells her that she has to go full on, like the pro-wrestling tag team between Shinya Hashimoto and Naoya Ogawa.
8 Shinbou tells Travis that she will kill FU, even if it means she sacrifices her own life in the process. Travis then says the first time he felt the importance of human life was during the deathmatch between Genichiro Tenryu and Jumbo Tsuruda, especially when Tsuruda used his seemingly deadly Power Bomb move on Tenryu.
9 Shinobu tells Travis that she was visited by pro-wrestlers Vic Steamboat, "Superfly" Snuka, and Karl Gotch, who trained her as she was comatose. Travis expresses his jealousy.
