Who was the 1st Harbinger that Harada popped?

If you look at the 6 panels in the "Story of Harada," you'll see him mentioning in the 5th panel that
Toyo Harada wrote:"I will find others who are different. I will help them..." "... and they will help me."
This 5th panel based on what Harada said in this panels leads me to believe the Harbinger pictured was the first Harbinger that Harada found and popped to help start his "Harbinger Foundation." To me this Harbinger looks to be "Thumper."

"Thumper," must have been there from the beginning, and seen a lot of the dealing and wheeling behind the scenes. "Thumper" is probably a close confidant of Harada, at least as far as any of the Eggbreakers go. As we all know Thumper and Puff were an item, but as far as Eggbreakers go Thumper seemed to out rank other Eggbreakers.

There must have been a first.

Maybe Screen?

Joe wasn't a Harbinger, he was just a coach. Also, he joined the Foundation long after Harada founded it.

I wasn't sure he was a Harbinger. Just checking. Been a while since I read that particular story. Here's a looney idea. What if it wasn't Harada who got popped by the "psychic" but that she was the first one that HE popped? Not how I read it but that could be seen as a possibility by some.

That would make the most sense, but like you say, it's not the way it's written.

Hmmm....

I almost got the idea from the story that they both awakened the power in each other...a double pop!!! But who knows....

Now Shooter has us all talking...which I think was his plan....
