Tokugawa, which was named after the Tokugawa Shogunate which was in charge of Japan during the 17th Century in the planet Earth and marked the Tokugawa period. The period was characterized by economic growth, strict social orders, isolationist foreign policies, an increase in both environmental protection and popular enjoyment of arts and culture. The Tokugawa ship is a modified Zoner Deep Space Explorer.


The ship is manned by thirty men and women from all around the Sirius Sector.
The ship is commanded by Yoji Otsuka. During the Nomad war Yoji and his parents immigrated from Kusari to the planet Gran Canaria.


Yoji and his parents settled down into the city. Yoji was asked to join the Zoners during his early-twenties.


Now he has been promoted to the commander of Tokugawa.
While Yoji and his crew were moving to their ship – Neutral-net news reporter managed to have a brief interview with Yoji Otsuka.


Reporter: “Hello! How do you feel to be a part of the newest Zoner space program?”


Yoji Otsuka: “Well – At first, I was a bit speechless when I was asked to move from my laboratory to a spaceship, but after taking a long look at the ship – I felt more courage to join the program.


Reporter: “What are you expecting from the program?”


Yoji Otsuka: “Well – It’s quite hard to say – but I hope that we won’t come back home empty handed.”


Reporter: “Have you met your crew? Do you like them?”


Yoji Otsuka: “Yes! I’ve met them numerous times and we have talked about the program – All of them seem really professional.”
