Hyouma Yoshimura
Hyouma Yoshimura (芳村 兵馬 Yoshimura Hyōma) is a support member of the Superhuman Bureau and a superhuman. He is in his 30s.[1]
Appearance[]
He wears a leather jacket, black boots, a beige scarf, a blue shirt and white/black striped pants. He also wears fingerless gloves.
Another version of him wears a black and green bodysuit.
Personality[]
He doesn't speak much[1], although whether there is an important reason behind it is unknown. However, when a second version of Hyouma arrives in the current timeline, he suddenly starts speaking more.
In his late 30s, this highly experienced member of the Superhuman Bureau plays a supportive role and is looked up to by the main characters. A man of few words, he’s handsome but can be very cynical. He has the ability to transform into a beast with leopard-like limbs, but how he came to be is unknown. In addition, he has the ability to manipulate time, such as stopping or reversing it.
History[]
Usually called "Mr. Jaguar", Yoshimura is a man from the 25th century who was sent by the Time Patrol to destroy the Advocates of Free History.
Three versions of him exist in the current timeline - his current self, his future self from the Time Patrol (also known as simply Jaguar, who wears the leather jacket) and his future self from the IQ (also known as Akira, who wears a black and green suit). The version that exists with the Bureau is the Time Patrol version, and he was one of the founding members of the Bureau. In the universe with Time Police, superhumans do not exist so Hyouma came to change that fact by founding the Bureau.
There is a version of Hyouma known as "Super Jaguar," but which version that is is unknown.

Abilities[]
Transformation (Jaguar): He is able to transform into a Jaguar-like creature, both partially[2] and fully[3]. This allows him to use super speed[2] and allows him to climb up walls.[3] This is also where his moniker Mr Jaguar (as used by Kikko and most other members of the Bureau) comes from. When morphing his legs, his clothes have to give way. It is also possible to ride his jaguar form.[4]
Stopping Time (Pocket Watch): First seen in episode 3,In addition, he has the ability to manipulate time, such as stopping or reversing it.[5] This is done by the use of his watch, which has a clock emblem and the initials T.P (Time Patrol) on it. The watch was created as a result of research into time travel, leaving Kikko to point out it is a "chicken or egg question".
Knowledge: He is described as a "genius physicist" at one point, and created Equus. Equus was made before IQ. [3]
