Appearance[]
May is the one of the two characters who have their pupils visible in the entire series. Her eye color is light green. She has orange hair that bangs in the front.
While under Titan's control in Act VII, her eyes are completely white just like the demons in the game, her skin is pale white and her hair color is red-orange.
Personality[]
May has a kind, cute and caring personality, especially towards Shadow whom she later ends up with at the end of the series. She is brave and also intelligent in several aspects, especially in weapons. She is also quite vocal regarding her opinions and speaks her mind freely.
After getting seized by Titan, her personality completely changes and she becomes insane and ruthless. Shadow faces a hard time fighting with her aspects, especially strategically, because she is greatly aware of Shadow's fighting style, having seen all of his previous fights. After being defeated by Shadow, she transforms back to her normal state.
Story[]
May introduces herself as the local armor and weapons expert of Act I's town, and insists that Shadow should take her along on his journey. She promises to make sure his equipment is in good condition and on the journey, she serves as the assistant of Shadow and a person who generally has a deal of information to provide on mysterious subjects. She gives information about Tournament, Challenge, and other things so that Shadow could improve himself and defeat demons more easily.
After they reach the Gates of Shadows, Sensei informs that only someone with flesh and bones can seal the Gates, pointing out Shadow is unable to do that. May reluctantly volunteers to close the Gates after Sensei and Sly refuse to do it. As the Gates begin to shut, a powerful torrent of wind rushes towards them and drags May along with it. Shadow tries to catch her, but she is whisked away inside the Gates just as they slam shut.
In order to save May, Shadow must open the Gates once more. Sensei tells Shadow that it seems the seals were connected to their Demons, so Shadow must defeat all six demons again to break the seals and reopen the gates. After he defeats all of the demons once more, Shadow proceeds to enter the opened Gates to save May.
Justice[]
May enslaved under Titan's mind control.
Justice is the name given by Titan to May during the time when she is under the influence of his mind control. Being mind-controlled, she is evil, just like him, wants to take revenge from Shadow, and serve Titan and be his mindless slave. Her eyes are completely white just like every demon in the game. She wears a blue colored technological Armor. She appears at the middle of Chapter 2, and at Chapter 3, she unmasks herself and is fought as a mini-boss.
Act VII[]
May as Justice, serving her master
After Shroud has become insane, Justice is sent by Titan to neutralize Shroud and capture Shadow. When Shadow wins the Incubator tournament, he receives news that Shroud has broken into the Hideout and holds Cypher and the others at ransom, demanding that Shadow fight him. Shadow agrees to the challenge. After Shroud is defeated, Justice appears. She orders that Shroud be placed in the Incubator's feeding tube to "serve as nutrition for a new generation of Titan's military". Afterwards, Justice recognizes Shadow as an extraordinary fighter and commends his style, saying that despite his disguise, she knew who he was all along. It is then revealed that Justice is May. Completely under Titan's control, her eyes are now white like a demon, and she is subservient and obedient to Titan. She asks Shadow if he wishes to take Titan's place. Then she sees Kali and thinks that Shadow had already moved on and found a new "girlfriend". She says that Titan was right about him all along - Shadow is not saving the world, all he wants are "chicks" and "power". Kali rebukes May and tells her that she is nothing but Shadow's liaison officer and that Shadow had come across the Gates for May. Cypher interrupts, revealing that he had now activated the Hideout's defense circuit, effectively trapping May. She realizes that she has been tricked and threatens that Titan would kill them all. Cypher states that May had lost her mind because of Titan and as long as Titan holds grip over her mind, she will remain a mindless and obedient servant.
May, after awakened from Titan's control.
After all of Titan's bodyguards are defeated, Titan summons May, which surprises Kali. May reveals that she killed her captors back at the hideout and managed to escape which enrages Kali. May tells her to restrict herself as she has brought Cypher to watch her fail and challenges Shadow to a fight with her. She taunts him by saying that she doubts Shadow can win as she knows all his fighting styles. Boosted by shadow energy, May has incredible strength and possesses various perks and abilities seen use by Shadow and the demons, but Shadow still managed to defeat her and break Titan's control over her. Kali tells May to go back through the Gates, saying that after freeing her, Shadow has only one thing left to do - fight Titan. Although reluctant at first, May finally leaves.
May anxiously awaits Shadow's return after she returns from the Gates. As the Gates begin to crumble, she spots a silhouetted figure emerging from the dust and rubble - Shadow has not only managed to avoid the explosion and return through the Gates, he has also got his physical body back. The two hug and then decide to return home.
