The Magical Girl in PROXY

Kurosawa

“Takako wakes up on a sofa with no memory of who she is, finds mail on the counter saying she's supposed to go to her first day of school, and decides to not go.

‘Two weeks later, I chose option one [going to school] after running out of storage space on my phone to download games and floorboards to count in the apartment.

That is to say, I was bored.’

She's a mood, she's just vibing, she's a magical girl mascot and if she hadn't gone to school that day, the monsters probably would've come to her instead.” - anonymous submitter

Serizawa

“He has strong psychic powers, and not the best control of them, so when he was growing up he got bullied a lot because of it. When he turned 12, he decided to just become a shut-in, and he stayed that way for 15 years. Counselors tried to help but they couldn't really do anything. Eventually he got out of his room (and directly into an incredibly toxic dependency on a corrupt guy (he got out of that eventually too thankfully, he's doing a lot better now)) but I think the 15 years straight of not even touching the outside world counts for something here.

15 years is an INSANELY long time. And during these 15 years he didn't even leave his room! That's insane! That's shut-in dedication! And even when he got out of his room, he was still kinda a shut-in still, because he literally hid under an umbrella at all possible times and barely talked and interacted with anyone aside from one guy. And the reason he was given that umbrella was specifically because he was so nervous about leaving his room, and the umbrella made him feel like he was still there.” - @finnexistshere

“He's a powerful esper (has psychic abilities) and due to his lack of control over them growing up, at the age of 12 he decided to become a recluse and locked himself in his bedroom for 15 years. He only ever came out of confinement when an evil organization (Claw) recruited him by saying they'd teach him how to control his powers. He confines himself because he's afraid of his own power and his inability to control it, and is deeply anxious about it, but is eventually recruited by Reigen to work for Spirits and Such (where the good guys work lol). He eventually starts to come out of his shell, get control of his powers, and starts going to night school :)

Iris

“She is shown averting a disaster at the start of the movie after seeing the death of her and every other person there (as all the Final Destination movies start) and then, when she realises that everyone there will eventually die in the order they were meant to, locks her and her kids in a house for literal decades taking every precaution to avoid death’s funny little pranks and writes several Gravity Falls-ass journals on how to avoid it etc. Eventually she DOES die and death then continues down the line to her children and grandchildren.

Reason for amnesia: Magical girl shenanigans

Do they get their memory back?: Not yet (only first book is out)

“Fun” facts: Takako is a magical girl mascot, giving powers to her classmates one at a time to fight monsters. She takes orders from a magazine she found in her desk. Takako is trying to find a magical girl, and she can't remember her name or face, and has dubbed her Flan Girl.

LINK

Reason for amnesia: He died and was put in Shrine of Resurrection where he revived after 100 years, but also lost his memories.

Do they get their memory back?: Nothing implies that even if you got all the memories, that Link remembers everything that happened 100 years ago.
