Amane is a playable character who is introduced first in Chrono Phantasma. He is a young man who travels around, gathering a troupe of young and handsome men and beautiful women as he goes. He claims that to dance on the greatest stage, also the greatest battlefield where greatest warriors gather is his wish. The majority of his troupe are orphans of war from around the world, which he has adopted.

Amane is a friendly, respectful, and eccentric individual. He refers to battles as "dancing" and his gameplay style even resembles such. He is always on the lookout for possible fellow performers, asking both Ragna and Carl to join, being very persistent to have the latter do so. His subordinates greatly revere him and he in turn treats them fairly, going so far as to treat them to a surprise vacation in the 7th Hierarchical City of Kazamotsu. He often address any individual he meets as "my dear". Despite his heavily female appearance, Amane's personality is fairly masculine.
However, he can make rather careless mistakes at times and is rather slow at realizing his error, such as when he trained Bullet's squad dancing techniques for 3 days before realizing he made a mistake, having mixed up the words "troop" with "troupe". This is shown again during Noel's arcade when he mistakes her for a cross-dressing boy.

Amane has an unusual ability that allows him to form his clothing into various shapes, although whether this is the effect of an Armagus, magic or otherwise is unknown. His Drive, Spiral, utilizes his clothing into drills that increase in power with repeated use, going from Level 1 to a maximum of Level 3, at which point his Drive begins chipping away at the opponent's defenses at an alarming rate. However, using it too much can result in it becoming overheated and will become unusable until it cools down and restarts at Level 1.
