   Keys: Order

   BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION JAPANESE NAME オーダー ROMANJI NAME Ōdā DESCRIPTION NUMBER OF MEMBERS 3 AFFILIATION JAA STATUS Active FIRST APPEARANCE MANGA DEBUT Chapter 6 (Mentioned) Chapter 14 WARNING! (1)

   The Order (ORDERオーダー, Ōdā?) is a group within the Japanese Association of Assassins, consisting of some of its strongest assassins. Their main task is maintaining the order of the assassin world when friction in the industry arises.[1] Their existence is considered an urban legend.[2]

   Overview

   The Order's Members Nagumo explaining the function of Order to Shin and Lu. The Order is a suborganization of the JAA, consisting of some of its strongest members. While the Order has a limit of ten members, the roster has never been full.[3] They work for the JAA's chairman, but typically report to proxies, though Iriya, an Association of Assassins Communications Coordinator, has given them missions on one occasion.[4]

   Each member of the Order is significantly more powerful than the average assassin in virtually all aspects.

   Taro Sakamoto estimated that even if ten of Shin Asakura attacked one Order member, all would die in six seconds and his best bet would be to play dead if he met one.[5] JAA Western Japan Headquarters director Fukumitsu stated that a single Order member is more than capable of destroying an entire JAA branch.[6] The Order has a leadership role, but no other formal hierarchies have been announced within the order, though several informal mentorships have been revealed: Satoru Yotsumura's mentorship of Shishiba,[7] and Shishiba's unofficial mentorship of Osaragi. Oki is the current leader of the Order. Order members generally have little regard for each other and remain unperturbed if a fellow member dies.

   Membership of the Order seen thus far has only been through recruitment. So far, only Order members in leadership positions have been shown to recruit new members. While almost all Order members are Japan Clear Creation graduates, graduation from the JCC is unnecessary

   Shishiba was a Kansai Region Assassin Institute dropout.[8] Osaragi never attended an assassin institution.[8] Order members can be banished; former Order member Yotsumura was also sentenced to death and banishment for failing a major mission[9][10] and for trying to kill JAA executives.[11]

   Order members appear to enjoy a greater degree of freedom, as Osaragi stopped to buy snacks during missions[12] and four Order members failed to show up for a mission briefing with Iriya.[13] Similarly, the pay appears to be very high:

   Sakamoto was able to pay 756,000 yen for information.[14] Since Sakamoto currently runs a convenience store, it is likely that this money comes from his savings from his time in the Order. In a post-chapter panel, Hyo purchases a replacement MRI machine for 1.5 billion yen.[15] Shishiba and Nagumo rented a luxury SUV (with full-coverage insurance) for a mission.[16] Members have congregated in high-class restaurants for meetings at least once.[13] Sakamoto enters a bidding war with Kamihate for a ticket to the Assassin Exhibition of the Century, bidding up to 500 million yen.[17] Nagumo was able to pay for Kindaka's treatment fee, for 8 years.[18][19] Mission

   The Order's role is described as maintaining "order" in the assassin world when friction arises. Though an exact definition of "friction" has been unspecified, it may refer to individuals that pose a threat to or disrupt everyday operations.

   The Order sent various members after serial killers Minimalist, Dump, and Saw, who were all broken out of jail for targeting assassins and/or destroying assassin agencies.[20][21][22] The Order sent various members after Kashima during the events of the Lab Arc, likely due to the trouble his research would cause the JAA. Order member Takamura, who has only been seen acting on orders, shows up at the JAA Tokyo Bureau due to it being attacked by Slur and Gaku.[23] Order sent their entire roster to protect the JAA chairman at the Assassin Exhibition of the Century and eliminate Slur, with Takamura showing up the last. Oki briefed the team to capture Nagumo, Sakamoto, and Slur in the aftermath of Assassin Exhibition of the Century Arc.

   ADVERTISEMENT History

   At an unknown time before the start of the main story, the Order was founded by Kindaka and Satoru Yotsumura. It is not known if there were other founding members..

   At an unknown time before the main story, the Order would try to recruit eventual JCC teacher Etsuko Satoda but were turned down as she wanted to focus on the education of the future generations of assassins.[24] At an unknown time before the main story, the Order would recruit members Hyo, Shishiba, Takamura, Kamihate, and Oki.

   At an unknown time before the main story, the Order would recruit members Taro Sakamoto and Yoichi Nagumo.

   While being sent on a mission to eliminate the Steel Dragon (secretly Kindaka in disguise), Kindaka extended a verbal offer to Sakamoto, Nagumo, Rion, and Uzuki to join the Order. None of them would accept the invitation during the mission, and Rion and Uzuki would eventually disappear after the mission, before getting a chance to formally respond to the offer. At the time of this verbal offer, the Order was implied to have at least four members, including Kindaka and Yotsumura. The four members' silhouettes were shown with two of them bearing a loose resemblance to Kindaka and Yotsumura, and one of the remaining silhouettes bearing a loose resemblance to Hyo. The final silhouette does not resemble any revealed previous members of the Order. It is possible this is the Order member that was friends with Kanaguri before they were eventually killed by him and had their position taken byhim. Kindaka once stated that there "are only four of us in Japan right now".[25] Order members have been known to have assignments overseas,[26] and so it is ambiguous if there had been other Order members at the time or not. After offering a position in the Order to Sakamoto, Nagumo, Rion, and Uzuki, Kindaka task the four to assist him as a bodyguard in an escort mission for the wife and child of the then-JAA Chairman as he was injured during combat with them. Kindaka would fall into a coma after inhaling poison gas on this mission. Sakamoto and Nagumo would officially join the Order sometime after this mission. At an unknown time before the main story, Order member Yotsumura failed to protect the JAA chairman and was suddenly expelled from the JAA. Shishiba was sent to assassinate Yotsumura but would be ultimately unsuccessful.[27]

   Since the Order is a subgroup of the JAA, this is also Yotsumura's expulsion from the Order. Shishiba was assigned to kill Yotsumura as a result of Yotsumura's failure, but Shishiba failed to kill Yotsumura, and it is implied that Shishiba intentionally let Yotsumura live. Subsequently, during the JCC Infiltration Arc, Shishiba, together with Nagumo and Osaragi would once again be assigned to eliminate Yotsumura, and would once again not kill Yotsumura, instead choosing to throw him into a river and let him bleed to death.[28] Nagumo would later then pull Yotsumura out of the river, and force Yotsumura to covertly investigate the circumstances of Rion Akao's death,[28][29] while keeping the fact that Yotsumura is alive hidden from everyone except Shishiba. At an unknown time before the main story, Order member Taro Sakamoto would retire as an assassin and leave the Order.

   At an unknown time before the main story, the Order would recruit Kanaguri after he killed an unknown Order member, who was also his good friend, over an argument about what makes the greatest movie, and would join the Order in his place.[28] This happened before the main story began.

   During the JCC Transfer Exams Arc, Sakamoto came off in not knowing or recognizing Kanaguri.[30] Which implies that Kanaguri's recruitment into the Order was after Sakamoto's retirement. It is possible Kanaguri was recruited before Sakamoto had left the Order and Sakamoto had simply not seen Kanaguri between him joining and his retirement, or that Kanaguri's appearance had changed significantly between then and now. At an unknown time, Shishiba recruited Osaragi after she had killed numerous assassins who were his intended targets. Osaragi would be introduced to Yotsumura by Shishiba, showing that Yotsumura had been removed the Order long before Osaragi was recruited. A flashback that Hyo had implied that Sakamoto was still in the Order when Osaragi was recruited or at least groom.[31] This however, seemingly contradicts the timeline originally established, as Sakamoto and Osaragi did not know each other and when introduced by Shishiba, it is mentioned that Osaragi is "new", implying that she joined the Order at some point after Sakamoto's retirement.[32] During the events of the JCC Infiltration arc, Kanaguri was expelled from the Order and the JAA.[28]

   Kanaguri's expulsion was for concealing evidence from the JAA and collusion with X. His actions were hugely motivated by his desire to film the conflict between X's Organization and the JAA from both perspectives. Hyo would go to Bangkok, Thailand in order to investigate X's Organization. He would meet and assist Heisuke with recovering his stolen baggage and be lured into combat with Kumanomi, a member of X's Organization, who managed to injure and subsequently drown him.[33]

   During the events of the Bangkok Arc, Hyo was be killed in combat by Kumanomi. [31] During the events of the Assassin Exhibition of the Century arc, Order member Nagumo Yoichi would be expelled from the Order, and Order member Takamura would be killed in combat.

   JAA Chairman Sei Asaki would instruct Nagumo to kill Rion-Uzuki. Nagumo would instead decide to ignore his instructions and escape together with Sakamoto and Rion-Uzuki. As a result, JAA Chairman Sei Asaki would simultaneously expel him from the Order and designate him (along with Sakamoto and Uzuki) as a Special Class-A extermination target, wanted for conspiracy against the JAA. Takamura would see extermination targets Sakamoto, Nagumo, and Uzuki together, and engage them in combat. Takamura would injure them but would ultimately be overwhelmed after Uzuki's companions join the battle and be killed by Uzuki himself. At an unknown time, Oki took over as the leader of the Order.

   Oki was implied to be overseas for a large part of the story. At an unknown time while he was overseas, Order leader Oki recruited members Torres and Tanabata.[34]

   The Al-Kamar orphanage was a scheme to take in orphans and train them to kill, creating Order members. No Order members have been revealed to be from the Al-Kamar orphanage.

   Oki has decided that currently, the best course of action for the Order is to work with X and his organization, likely due to how unlikely it is for them to defeat the former's Takamura personality.

2. #2Japanese Association of Assassins

   Keys: JAA, Japanese Association of Assassins

   PROFESSIONAL STATUS AFFILIATION Japan The Japanese Association of Assassins (日に本ほん殺ころし屋や連れん盟めい, Nihon Koroshiya Renmei?, lit. "Japanese Hitmen League/Federation") — JAA for short (Satsuren (殺サツ連レン, Satsuren?) in Japanese) — is an official assassin organization based in Japan. It is the largest of its kind at a member count of 1,000, with just under 400 of those being professional assassins.

   Due to the actions of Slur and his group, over a quarter of JAA assassins have been purged.

   ADVERTISEMENT Overview

   As the largest assassination organization in Japan, the JAA effectively holds a monopoly over the business. The JAA is described to be an extremely wealthy organization; the JAA Tokyo Bureau is vast and extensive with enough infrastructure to resemble part of a city.

   In addition to assassination jobs, the JAA offers a more diverse range of services including weapons manufacturing or repairing public spaces damaged during assassination missions. Clients pay a fee to the JAA for these jobs, who then pass the assignment onto the appropriate individual.

   Information is discreetly transmitted to assassins. Examples include highly expensive movie rentals and encoded scratch cards.

   Uda describes the JAA has having good pay and benefits. Though allegedly, 30% of an assassin's earnings are taken by the JAA and refusal to pay this fee results in death.[Citation needed] Agencies

   The JAA can outsource its client's requests to agencies for an agency fee. However, due to the actions of Slur and his group, many of these agencies have been wiped out. The only named agency is Dondenkai Ltd, of which Boiled and Obiguro are members of. Nagumo mentions at least 30 agencies, all of which are defunct after attacks by Slur.[Citation needed]

   Becoming an Assassin

   Joining the JAA requires typically formal education at a dedicated school for assassination. Exceptions such as Osaragi exist, who Nagumo recalls never attended any assassin school. Assassin schools teach aspiring assassins a variety of skills ranging from using guns to close-quarters combat and poisoning. It is here that successful students may acquire assassin licenses, either upon graduation or during their studies. These assassin licenses seemingly expire only when the bearer dies.

   There are two known assassin schools:

   Japan Clear Creation (JCC) Kansai Region Assassin Institute According to Hotta, a JCC student, assassins cannot work unless they go through the JAA. The Order

   Main article: Order The Order (ORDERオーダー, Ōdā?) is a special group of JAA assassins that, as the name suggests, maintains order in the assassin world whenever friction arises, i.e.: dealing with anything that may prove troublesome for Japan's assassin industry if not dealt with immediately. The Order is made up of the strongest assassins in the JAA and is thus a very small group. Members of the Order are so powerful that the JAA rarely assigns several members to the same mission; having the entire Order sent for one assignment has never been seen. Members

   Trivia

   It is unknown if there are any similar organizations to JAA outside Japan. Nagumo claims to have a "gold assassin license", though how this differs from a regular license is unknown.[1] A Diploma of Assassination is required for a "silver assassin license", though how many types of licenses are still unknown. The JAA Tokyo Bureau has visitor passes. Trespassers on JAA Tokyo Bureau grounds are eliminated as per JAA protocol.

3. #3Taro Sakamoto

   BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION JAPANESE NAME 坂さか本もと太た郎ろう ALIASES The Legendary Hit Man; Porky/Porker Mr. Manager (by Lu Shaotang) PERSONAL DESCRIPTION BIRTHDAY November 21st[1] AGE 27[1] GENDER Male HEIGHT 188 cm[1] WEIGHT 140 kg[1] HAIR COLOR Gray/White PROFESSIONAL STATUS STATUS Unknown RELATIVES Aoi Sakamoto (Wife); Hana Sakamoto (Daughter) OCCUPATION Sakamoto's Store Owner (Current); Assassin (Former) AFFILIATION Order (Former) JAA (Former) JCC FIRST APPEARANCE MANGA DEBUT Chapter 1 ANIME DEBUT Episode 1 PORTRAYAL JAPANESE VOICE Jun Fukazawa (Vomic) Tomokazu Sugita (Anime) ENGLISH VOICE Matthew Mercer LESS Profile Synopsis Gallery WARNING! (1) File:B92529d32812c3db83faf0dd3068a19c~2.jpg Taro Sakamoto (坂本さかもと太郎たろう, Sakamoto Tarō?) is the main protagonist of the series Sakamoto Days. Previously the best assassin in the world and a former member of the Order, he now runs a convenience store with his wife Aoi and daughter Hana. After a bounty is placed on his head, Sakamoto is thrust back into the world of assassins, alongside his new allies Shin, Lu, and Heisuke.

   ADVERTISEMENT Appearance

   Sakamoto is a tall, fat man with slicked back gray hair that is tied into a ponytail at the back of his head (similar to a man bun) and he has a small broom mustache. He typically wears an apron over a T-shirt and long pants. Sakamoto prefers to wear slippers, even when outside. His eyes are usually hidden by the glare of his round glasses.

   In the past, Sakamoto was much leaner with no mustache. His facial features were more defined and his eyes were visible through his glasses. Through burning through his accumulated calories, Sakamoto can revert to this form for a power boost. Shin notes his transformed appearance makes him look handsome.

   During the JCC infiltration arc, Nagumo disguised Sakamoto as his wife Aoi Sakamoto.

   ADVERTISEMENT Personality

   Sakamoto isn't much of a talker and instead prefers to let his actions speak for themselves. He deeply loves his family, shown by the fact that he left his hitman profession just to be with them, and is very protective of them. He also has a great amount of respect for his wife Aoi. Because of his deep love for his wife and the life that he has built with her, he adheres to a "No Killing Policy". This policy has inadvertently given him a sense of justice, as even in the presence of other assassins, he prevents them from killing if possible. This policy also extends to his enemies, even those who attempt to kill both him and his family.

   Sakamoto rarely shows emotion, though he is comically scared of incurring his wife's wrath. As the series progresses, Sakamoto begins to exhibit more of his emotions that were previously kept hidden, with him even beginning to talk frequently outside of his mind and expressing how he feels to those around him. However, he is not without fault, sometimes hiding his feelings to protect those around them or make them feel safe, as shown when Saw attacked Shin and Lu in his absence and were gravely injured. This caused Sakamoto to feel internal rage, though he kept this hidden, even trying to hide it when called out for it.

   Although usually composed and good-natured, Sakamoto can be angered quickly when his family is threatened or injured and he is unable to help them in any way. Sakamoto has shown intense anger when his daughter was threatened to the point that he nearly loses his mind and attempts to kill the individual who made the threat towards his child. When Saw grievously injured Shin and Lu in a battle, Sakamoto felt only pure rage though he did not express this to either of them.

   In the past, Sakamoto was much more callous and indifferent to killing, being described as the perfect killing machine who felt absolutely no emotion when taking on a job. However, this changed after meeting his future wife Aoi. Through her influence, Sakamoto learned to respect the sanctity of life and becomes enraged when Apart jeopardizes the lives of innocent citizens during their fight. Despite this, he is still very much capable of killing and humorously imagines killing Shin over minor annoyances, much to the clairvoyant's horror.

   Sakamoto is an affable man and generally helps people when asked. Many people on his neighborhood rely on him for mundane things such as cutting tree branches, feeding toddlers, or even something more exaggerated like reshaping a single ball into two so that two children can play, all of which he does with little problem, becoming well liked in his community as a result.

   ADVERTISEMENT Relationships

   Family

   Aoi Sakamoto

   Aoi is Sakamoto's wife and the main reason he left the hitman business. He deeply loves and respects her, trying his best to protect her but also to keep from making her angry. A good example of this can be seen in how he tries to keep in line with her rules to avoid her divorcing him.

   Hana Sakamoto

   Hana is Sakamoto's daughter and only child. Although they do not interact much in the manga, Sakamoto deeply loves her and will do his best to protect her as demonstrated when he took a heavy beating from multiple shoppers to obtain a special backpack Hana wanted.

   Allies

   Shin Asakura

   Sakamoto's former partner and pupil from his assassin glory days who now works as an employee at his store. Sakamoto cares deeply about Shin, evident by the fact he saved him from being killed, often confiding in him and trusting him above all else. Shin is the closest thing Sakamoto has to a friend, and a possible younger brother figure. Shin harbors a great deal of respect and admiration for Sakamoto, seeing him as a mentor and one of the greatest men in his life.

   Lu Shaotang

   A young woman from a Triad family whom Sakamoto saves for the sole purpose of making pork buns for him. Ever since then, she has come to work in his store although she seems to have friction with Shin. Sakamoto seems to have a great deal of appreciation and concern for Lu comparable to that of Shin, demonstrated by his constant urge to protect her. He goes through great lengths to let Lu stay as a member of his store and his family when Wutang comes looking for her.

   Nagumo

   An old friend of Sakamoto's as well as a member of the Order, an elite assassin group that Sakamoto was formerly a member of. It appears that they first met and became friends during the time they spent in their shared JAA class. At one point in Chapter 45, Nagumo defends Sakamoto's store while he is away, showing he is willing to do favors for Sakamoto, as well as demonstrating that Sakamoto trusts Nagumo enough to protect his family and his store. Sakamoto, Nagumo, and Rion Akao were close friends during their time at the JAA, being both excellent students, setting many records during their time then, and troublemakers, leading to their expulsion where the trio were introduced to Kindaka and the Order.

   Heisuke Mashimo

   Sakamoto first meets Heisuke when the latter takes up the bounty on his head. Heisuke confronted Sakamoto and Shin, cornering them both due to his skill. However, he was ultimately defeated when his rifle was destroyed with a simple rock thrown by Sakamoto with Shin's help in locating him. The two quickly become compatriots when he won the air soft tournament with Sakamoto and Shin, and received his share of the prize money, fifty yen.

   Rion Akao

   They initially met during their time at the JCC. Even before Nagumo joined the assassin department, they forged a strong friendship, working together on missions. Throughout their time at the JAA, they were recognized as excellent students and troublemakers, especially by one of their teachers, Etsuko Satoda, which ultimately led to their expulsion. It was during this time that they were introduced to Kindaka and the Order. Eight years after her death, Sakamoto eventually got married and retired from his life as an assassin. However, his past caught up with him when someone using the name Akao placed a billion-yen bounty on his head.

   ADVERTISEMENT Skills & Abilities

   Sakamoto killing men in his prime Sakamoto slaughtering hordes of enemies in his prime. Overall Skill Level: Even among the Order, Sakamoto is known to be the strongest hitman of all time, holding both immense skill in combat and also excelling in all aspects of killing. No one can seemingly match his skill in the current storyline. To date, he has only ever been outclassed in sharpshooting by Heisuke Mashimo, an assassin who excels in that aspect. Even in his chubby form, Sakamoto is a force to be reckoned with. Granny Miya notes that present Sakamoto only has 30% of his physical abilities compared to his prime.

   Sakamoto in present day Sakamoto in present day As a student, Sakamoto was still renowned as an exceptional talent, even Byodo the 'database' of the JCC stated that out of the 38,000 students he had seen go to the school Sakamoto was the greatest fighter. Alongside Nagumo and Rion Akao, he was one of the three greatest prospects to ever step foot into the JCC. He surpassed those around him in nearly every aspect imaginable, setting the record for the greatest marksman in JCC history, though that was stripped from him by Heisuke later in his life. As he continued to grow, Sakamoto further eclipsed all of his colleagues and even the very friends he once stood with as equals, even progressing so far as to join the Order. With enough power to singlehandedly wipe out branches of the JAA, his strength only continued to grow. Throughout his entire career he had never failed a mission, with the only person to have ever survived an assassination attempt by his hands being Kei Uzuki.

   Though in the present day Sakamoto's skills have waned with time due to his retirement and newfound normal life he is still an incredibly powerful hitman. Despite his chubby appearance in his current state his power is enough to not only contend with but defeat many current assassins. By the account of Granny Miya in his overweight state he is only around 30% of his former fitness level and power compared to when he was an active hitman. However, after being struck in one of his pressure points he grew more accustomed to his current physique allowing for him to use more power and use it to his advantage.

   Enhanced Strength: Sakamoto is quite powerful even after retiring and his fitness level decreasing drastically as a result. Sakamoto boasts incredible physical might, being capable of easily decapitating people and kicking Shin across his store through multiple shelves. Sakamoto stabilized the collapsing upper section of the Tokyo Tower by pulling it with a steel cable, stopping a speeding bus with a street sign, holding a person aloft with one hand and destroyed Son-Hee's chakram with just a frying pan. During the Lab Arc, Sakamoto severed multiple ropes restraining him using a coupon sheet and destroyed a mechanized dinosaur skeleton in hand-to-hand combat. Sakamoto is strong enough to throw his wife over the pillars of a suspension bridge. Even in his current state, Sakamoto's strength allowed him to fight and defeat Kanaguri, a powerful former Order member.

   Enhanced Marksmanship: Aside from being a phenomenal gunman, Sakamoto has incredible accuracy with regular objects. He hurled a rock up the barrel of Heisuke Mashimo's rifle, destroying it and casually flicked a cough drop at Shin's bullet with enough force to halt it. Sakamoto has thrown popsicle sticks and chopsticks with enough force to pin people to walls.

   Master Marksman: Sakamoto took mere seconds to find the cause of a mechanical issue in a pistol while chasing Amane. During his infiltration of the JCC, Sakamoto was able to assemble a gun and fire 67 shots within a minute, all of which were bullseyes; as a JCC student, Sakamoto fired 89 shots, making him the second-best all-time record setter on the JCC gun range.[2] Enhanced Durability: Sakamoto has phenomenal durability, being able to withstand a kick from Bacho, which sent him flying into an adjacent building with enough force to leave a crater. Sakamoto has also survived extremely tall falls unharmed, withstood numerous point-blank explosions from Boiled and he was unharmed by Uda's suicide bomb which annihilated the majority of an office building floor. Sakamoto's fat also grants him a degree of protection, likely allowing him to survive Apart's wires which were strong enough to cleave through multiple steel beams holding the Tokyo Tower up. During a bathhouse trip, Sakamoto relaxed in a 1°C ice bath (calling the bath tepid) temperatures and enjoyed a sauna hot enough to cause spontaneous combustion. He sat under and withstood a waterfall with a 10-ton water pressure, and repeated the ice bath-sauna-waterfall cycle multiple times in addition to withstanding a water jet powerful enough to launch Shin across the room.

   Hypnosis Resistance: Sakamoto was unaffected by Club Jam's hypnosis. Telepathy Resistance: During Sakamoto and Shin's first battle, Shin was unable to read the veteran assassin's mind, however, Sakamoto can choose whether to block his thoughts or not, as he usually communicates with Shin through telepathy. Enhanced Speed: Sakamoto possesses incredible speed, being capable of moving so fast that most opponents cannot see or react to him in time. He was able to dodge Son Hee and Bacho's "Tofu Scramble Attack" and hit the latter before he could react, dismantle and slice apart multiple opponents' guns in the blink of an eye before incapacitating them, and being able to catch up with a speeding bus on foot. He was fast enough to swat aside sniper rounds fired by Heisuke, though this mildly injured him. During his battle with Kashima on a moving train, Sakamoto was thrown into a train going the opposite direction, which he ran through the entire length of before bursting out and landing back in Kashima's train.

   Enhanced Reflexes: During a failed cruise date, Sakamoto threw Aoi into the air and defeated every assassin on the cruise ship before she landed back in his arms. Sakamoto has ran on the side of walls, scooped boiling water out of the air with an instant ramen cup and spun clothing hangers fast enough to deflect bullets. Sakamoto blocked a bullet fired at his head from less than an inch away using a fork and dodged close range machine gun fire from a turret. During a game of Old Maid, Sakamoto was fast enough to swipe a card from someone's hand and put it back without the person noticing.

   Enhanced Stamina: Throughout the entire series, Sakamoto has shown no visible signs of exhaustion in any fight.

   Skinny/Physical Prime Form: Although it's unknown how he does it, Sakamoto can assume a form similar to what he had when he was still in shape, gaining a massive boost to all of his physical abilities as demonstrated when he completely overwhelmed Boiled, an extremely capable hitman who'd previously been giving him quite a bit of trouble. Granny Miya was somehow able to prevent Sakamoto from using this form after her treatments for him to rely on his chubby (current) form more.

   Master Combatant: Sakamoto's combat skills are far beyond what trained assassins are capable of. Conventional weaponry such as guns are virtually useless against him as he can block or dodge such attacks before they reach him, and his intelligence and adaptability to any situation allows him to counteract unusual weapons and fighting styles. One of his most notable abilities is his ability to weaponize random objects. Sakamoto has used cooking pots, frying pans, freezers, traffic signs, cough drops, stickers, vacuum cleaners, clipboards, drawers, pens, cards and paper with the same effectiveness as regular weapons.

   While he is skilled at handling weapons, Sakamoto prefers to go unarmed, believing that dependence on weapons is a sign of a third-rate assassin.

   High Intelligence: Sakamoto's use of anything within arm's reach as an effective weapon demonstrates creativity, resourcefulness and quick thinking under high pressure. As a JCC student, Sakamoto memorized Boiled's bombs composition after a brief glance. Sakamoto's improvisation skills allowed him to blind Kashima with a sticker and mechanical pencil lead and use a railroad tie as a surfboard. Vehicular Mastery: Sakamoto is skillful enough to use a motorcycle as a weapon, whipping the rear wheel into a pursuer's face.

   ADVERTISEMENT Equipment

   Sakamoto has been described to be very strong in making the most of his surroundings and environment. However, Sakamoto still posses some items used multiple times over the series.

   Bulletproof Glasses: A pair of round glasses that have been used by Sakamoto throughout his life. The lenses are bulletproof, as a bullet fired at them at point-blank range bounced off.

   Apron: Sakamoto's apron is made of an extremely durable material, able to shield people from explosions with no damage.

   Hidden Weapons Arsenal: Sakamoto's armory is hidden in the convenience store behind rotating walls, accessed by typing a code into the cash register.

   It contains at least 12 handguns and 20-21 long guns of varying nature (carbines, rifles and assault rifles), at least 5 grenades, an unknown amount of ammunition (4 magazines are seen), a utility knife and a taser. The armory also contains more unusual items, such as kitchen gloves, wire cutters, rakes, a shovel, gardening spade, two wire cutters and a bolt cutter.

4. #4Sakamoto's Store

   Keys: Sakamoto's Store

   Sakamoto's Store is a small, two-story convenience store owned by Taro and Aoi Sakamoto. The first floor is occupied by a small store, whereas the second floor serves as the Sakamoto family's living space.

   The wage, at least for Shin Asakura, is 1855 yen per hour with extra pay for overtime.[1]

He is first seen paying a visit to Sakamoto to inform him of his bounty [6] and was revealed to be a member of the Order before losing his seat during the Assassin Exhibition of the Century Arc.

   Appearance

   Nagumo is a handsome man of tall and slim build, medium-length black hair and large black eyes. He wears a red polo shirt with teal, black and white triangle-shaped patterns under a cream-colored trench coat (in the manga, the shirt is white with patterns being red and navy blue, while the shirt being light blue and the coat is brown in the digital-colored manga) as well navy-blue pants (black in the digital-colored manga) and black shoes.

   He occasionally wears a white buttoned shirt with a black tie under a dark green business suit (in which he sometimes omits the suit and tie) He also carries a gray briefcase around on his back, which in it contains his signature weapon.[7]

   When he was 14 years old, Nagumo appeared taller and thinner before adulthood. His outfits usually consist of a black t-shirt under a yellowish-orange jacket containing black drawings of chains, navy blue shorts and a pair of wooden sandals.

   Nagumo has many tattoos, most of which are hidden by his clothing. His tattoos have mathematical inspirations, in particular, referencing the Golden Ratio.

   Tattoos shown include:

   On the left side of his neck, he has a marking of the Fibonacci Spiral. The growth factor of the Fibonacci Spiral is the golden ratio, ~1.6180. Two rectangular tattoos on both his hands, another reference to the golden ratio. The formula ϕ

   1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + ⋯ {\displaystyle \phi ={\sqrt {1+{\sqrt {1+{\sqrt {1+{\sqrt {1+{\sqrt {1+{\sqrt {1+{\sqrt {1+\cdots }}}}}}}}}}}}}}} on his right forearm. This a presentation of an infinite sequence of nested square roots which resolves to ~1.6180... (the golden ratio). 5 rectangles with different designs (and the third and fifth of which are black), next to the formula tattoo. The symbols, '2', ' ϕ {\displaystyle \phi }', '1' and '%' on his index finger, middle finger, ring finger and pinky respectively. A snake coiled around his lower left leg. A swallow on the right side of his right leg, just below the knee. An impossible shape on his shin, below the swallow tattoo. A square made of various spaced lines and curves on his right thigh. A mandala-esque pattern on his right shoulder. A pair of praying hands on his left pectoral. Likely inspired by the Praying Hands drawing by Albrecht Dürer. Anton Chekhovs quote "Although you may tell lies, people will believe you, if only you speak with authority" on his right bicep[8] A line which intersect, wrapping around his anterior forearm. A patterned, isosceles triangle on his left posterior forearm. A rectangular tattoo on his right tricep. A tattoo that is a reference to Leonard Shelby from Christopher Nolan´s Memento. on his left bicep.[8] A wing on his left waist.[9] An unidentified tattoo under his left armpit.[9] Arthur Schopenhauer quote "The doctor sees all the weakness of mankind; the lawyer all wickedness, the theologian all the stupidity." on his right side.[8] A pair of hands featured in the famous painting "The Creation Of Adam" by Michelangelo, but on the tattoo what would be Adam's hand is flipped so the palm faces upwards as supposed to down.[10] Personality

   Nagumo's most notable traits are his laid-back attitude accompanied by his constant smile that seems impossible to wipe off his face. He also has an incredible talent for annoying those around him to the point of making them want him dead.[11][12][13]

   Nagumo also shows to had pretty carefree, even in the middle of intense battles, once claiming to enjoy the wind in his hair as he stabbed a man in the arm.[14] He is also very playful with his opponents, as demonstrated multiple times. For instance, he evades and tricks Minimalist, a hardened serial killer, before handing him some dice to decide which of his blades he'd die by.[15] Another example is during his fight against Gaku, where he asked the latter if he liked Bruce Lee after being hit with a one-inch punch.

   However, when it comes to matters involving his friends, Nagumo tends to reveal his true emotions. One such instance is when he pulls Uzuki out of Takamura's slash line, wondering why he saved him despite being a dangerous serial killer, influenced by the fact that a part of Rion Akao still resided in Uzuki's body. In fact, Nagumo has shown deep care for his old friends Sakamoto and Rion since their time at the JAA, still thinking about her even after she was confirmed dead. This is also confirmed in their encounter during the Assassin Exhibition of the Century Arc, where, once Rion took control over Uzuki's body and spoke to him, Nagumo immediately recognized Rion's personality and questioned her identity.

   Nagumo believes the key to killing is "deception",[16] despite claiming to abhor it.[17]

   Despite this, Nagumo does possess another more cold and serious side of him. He acts on his own agenda most of the time, and sometimes does things to the extent of it being unethical. When he saved Satoru Yotsumura, he blackmailed him and threatened to kill Amane if he didn’t do what he wanted. Additionally, thought he didn’t engage in blackmailing Heisuke (seems to be the most prevalent method he uses..) he participated in the kidnapping of him, again, for information. Relationships

   Allies

   Taro Sakamoto

   Nagumo and Sakamoto first met when they were both enrolled at the JCC, having known each other since they were 14. Nagumo cares deeply about Sakamoto, to the point of not wanting him to be in danger, even though he knows Sakamoto's help is often necessary. Nagumo has repeatedly demonstrated his close friendship with Sakamoto, maintaining contact with him even after Sakamoto retired from being an assassin and became hunted by the JAA[18]. He has also done favors for Sakamoto and helped him out, such as when he disguised himself as Aoi Sakamoto and stood in as a cashier, killing Minimalist in the process.[19]

   Sakamoto and Nagumo remained close friends over time and even collaborated, along with Kei Uzuki (who was taken over by Rion's personality), during their fight against Takamura in the Assassin Exhibition of the Century. Nagumo refused to follow Asaki's orders and chose to side with Sakamoto, leading to both of them being expelled from the Order and hunted by the JAA.

   Rion Akao

   Nagumo met Rion after transferring from the Spy Department to the Assassin Department, where she initially wanted to attack him.[20] Along with Sakamoto, they soon became an inseparable trio, causing property damage and engaging in playful banter and fights. Their antics eventually led to their expulsion from the JCC, after which they were introduced to Kindaka and the Order together.

   After Rion's death, Nagumo investigated her death through various methods. This included paying for Kindaka's recovery bills and rescuing Yotsumura from drowning, so he could order him to look for any intel related to Rion. Nagumo has shown many times that he cares deeply for Rion, such as when he hesitated to attack Uzuki when Rion took control of his body and when he bore the brunt of Takamura's attack to protect Uzuki.

   Kindaka

   Nagumo first met Kindaka after being expelled from the JCC due to his behavior and constant fights with Rion and Sakamoto. In an effort to have the expulsion withdrawn, Nagumo, Sakamoto and Rion accepted a mission to assassinate Kindaka. However, after meeting him and engaging in a fierce battle, Kindaka offered Nagumo and the others a place in the Order and took them on a mission with him. Later, Kindaka fell into a coma due to Kobayashi's poison. Driven by his desire to investigate Rion's death, Nagumo paid Kindaka's hospital bills for eight years in a row, covering 1.2 million yen per month. When Kindaka eventually woke up, Nagumo handed him the entire bill, which totaled 1.15 billion yen, and asked him to repay the amount.

   Shishiba

   Nagumo and Shishiba seem to have a good and mutual relationship, though he tends to get on Shishiba's nerves sometimes to the point of being threatened.

   Hyo

   Nagumo enjoyed teasing Hyo the most out of all the members of the Order. Despite this, Nagumo truly cared for him, and was saddened by his death. He shot off a bullet into the air as a sign of respect .

   Skills & Abilities

   Overall Skill Level: Nagumo is an ex-member of the Order and one of the strongest assassins in Japan.[21] As a student Nagumo was one of the three greatest prospects to ever step foot into the JCC alongside Taro Sakamoto and Rion Akao with Rion Akao acknowledging his fighting ability. Kindaka, a founding member of the Order stated that the three of them could be future leaders of the assassin world.[22] In current time, Slur considered Nagumo as one of the top two fighters in the Order, and thus the second strongest assassin in the JAA.[23]

   Granny Miya stated that he is currently stronger than Taro Sakamoto due to the latter's five year-long retirement.[1] Kashima classified him as an S-rank target on the hit list he created.[24][25] Sakamoto has even stated that it would take a lot for Nagumo to lose a fight.[26] Due to his exceptional combat abilities, he was able to put Gaku, one of Uzuki's strongest subordinates on the brink of death after engaging him in battle.[23]

   Master of Disguise: Nagumo can copy other people's appearances perfectly in an instant, which he used to fool Lu Shaotang by disguising as Sakamoto.[27] He can also disguise others, including significantly altering someone's body shape, such as disguising the fat Sakamoto as his wife, Aoi. When disguising Sakamoto, Nagumo says the disguise would only last for twenty-four hours.[28]

   Master Combatant: Nagumo's combat skills include everything with coordination and skill, making him a deadly combatant.[29] He can render a man completely unconscious with only his killing intent.[30]

   Nagumo is extremely proficient with bladed weapons.[31][32][33][34] He was able to decapitate Minimalist with ease,[35] and kill multiple assassins in one swift motion before they could even react.[36]

   His combat skill was stated by Slur to be among the top two in the Order.[23] This was made evident in his fight against Gaku; despite being outmatched in physical ability, Nagumo was able to defeat him with his combat skill and trickery.[23] Nagumo was able to land devastating strikes on Gaku by catching him off guard with hidden weapons or by distracting him with his dice.[37][38] Even after his weapon was destroyed, leaving him with all his blades separated, Nagumo was able to fight on par with Gaku and eventually pierce him with the separated blades to end the fight.[23]

   Expert Marksman: Nagumo can use firearms with great proficiency. He ranked 4th place in the top 10 greatest shooters of all time at the JCC, having scored 84 points.[39]

   Morse Code: Nagumo can use morse code, as shown when he uses the signal lights of a moving vehicle to tell Shishiba that he was "killing".[40]

   Keen Intellect: Nagumo was a part of the intelligence-gathering department during his younger days at the JCC.[41] He is a highly perceptive individual, quickly able to deduce Kindaka's theory of a spy existing within the JAA's organization without the latter even saying anything,[42] and was also able to quickly notice that Erio Muto, a JAA executive, was a spy working for Slur.[43] His intellect and planning is partly what makes him such a deadly fighter, as he's able to stay one step ahead of his opponent through deception and schemes.

   Poison Knowledge: Most likely due to his upbringing as a spy’s apprentice and his training at the JCC, Nagumo is very knowledgeable of how poison works and understands how to adapt to it.[44] Enhanced Speed: Nagumo is capable of moving at extreme speeds, being fast enough to instantaneously disappear from a person’s sight.[45] He can move so quick that he managed to catch even Shin off guard,[46] as well as decapitate Minimalist in an instant. His speed is on par with Gaku.[47]

   Enhanced Strength: Nagumo casually lifted Minimalist by the neck with one hand[48] and was strong enough to contend with Yotsumura's attacks which could easily slice through the steel supports of a car carrier trailer.[32]

   Enhanced Reflexes: Nagumo was also able to save Heisuke Mashimo from a potential head shot.[49]

   Enhanced Durability: Nagumo is incredibly resilient despite his skinny build. He remains completely unharmed after taking a hit from Gaku´s mace that sent him flying through multiple walls,[50] a display airplane,[51] and a car sculpture.[52] Even after taking a point-blank ranged attack from Gaku's powerful laser mace that sent him crashing down to the ground with devastating force, Nagumo received only minor injuries.[53] Equipment

   Multi-Tool: Nagumo uses a large switchblade-like weapon that has six different functions.[54][32] In the past, he carried each blade separately under his trench coat.[55]

   The weapons contained inside his large multi-tool weapon include:

   Multiple Blades There are multiple fold and pop-out blades contained within Nagumo's large multi-tool weapon.[31] One of his blades doubles as a can opener at parties.[56] Daggers Inside the weapon, Nagumo carries a pair of daggers who have blades sharp enough to pierce through the roof of a SUV being driven by an assassin targeting Shishiba and durable enough to withstand blows from Yotsumura´s three sections staff.[14] Scythe A scythe that Nagumo held along with his other weapons. He used it during his fight against Gaku, primarily to distract him from his invisible blade.[57] Axe Nagumo's weapon can transform into a durable axe that he used during his fight against Gaku to send him crashing into the wing of an airplane. The back side of the axe is flat, which confused Gaku about whether the weapon was an axe or a hammer.[58] Invisible Blade A disposable yet sharp blade, made entirely of ceramic, with the peculiar characteristic of being almost invisible. By distracting Gaku with his other weapons, Nagumo managed to sneak the ceramic blade out and stab him.[59] It is stated that the blade only works once, as it becomes visible after being soiled with blood.[60] Dice: Nagumo uses a single dice to decide which blade he'll kill his enemy by,[15] or to distract his enemy to deliver a devastating blow.

6. #6Japan Clear Creation

   Keys: JCC, Japan Clear Creation

   LOCATION Remote Island INHABITANTS JCC Staff JCC Students The JCC (Japan Clear Creation) is an academy for aspiring assassins. It is described as Japan's preeminent assassin-training program. According to Natsuki Seba, the JCC has existed for around 50 years.

   The JCC has an enrolment of nearly 1,000 students with an 8:2 male-to-female ratio, 35 faculty and boasts a four-year curriculum. The graduation rate is 10%, with the remaining 90% of students dying or quitting. Every student lives in dormitories, as the JCC is located on a remote island.

   The JCC is the primary location of the JCC Infiltration Arc.

   Overview

   JCC Interior Students at the JCC. The academy trains aspirants in a variety of assassin skills ranging from firearm-handling, close-quarters combat and hands-on training. The JCC is described to have an extreme training regimen, and students often do not survive to see graduation. However, well-performing students may acquire an assassin license during their time at the JCC. The JCC is renowned for training extremely powerful assassins such as Taro Sakamoto and Nagumo.

   Some teachers such as Satoda-sensei are retired assassins, and teachers wanting to work at the JCC can do so with an internship. Despite their harsh personalities, difficult classes and teaching styles, they mostly care about their students and don't want to see them injured or dead.

   Entrance to the JCC is done through a practical examination which applicants must undergo. Tests can be retaken if failed, but are different every year and have a high mortality rate. As per JCC regulation, aspirants cannot have a bounty at the time of application.

   Fighting between students is not allowed, but seems to be loosely enforced. Both students and teachers can carry weapons; one close-combat teacher was seen carrying a handgun and students are encouraged to carry a weapon.

   The JCC has a Yoshimura Prize, which is awarded to a few students every year. Based on how Natsuki Seba was awarded the prize due to developing an invisibility suit, it can be presumed that the Yoshimura Prize is for those who have made revolutionary developments in their respective departments.

   The JCC has no dress code, though students working in laboratories still wear jumpsuits or white coats. Defenses

   The JCC is located on a remote island. Entry via boat is impossible as tides are too complex to allow docking; thus the only method of entry or exit is aircraft. The airspace around the JCC is also defended by surface-to-air missiles which destroy any unauthorized aircraft. It can be inferred from this that any intruders that make it onto the island or campus are also immediately killed.

   Students can take part-time jobs during their time at the JCC. They vary in pay and risk level. According to Akira, Floaters, Spotters and Test Subjects are some of the most popular part-time jobs. Floaters

   Floaters repair and clean job sites after jobs. Floaters have a daily wage of 15,000 yen and are considered to have the lowest-risk job.

   Floaters Floaters Spotters

   Spotting is a moderately-risky job. Spotters help snipers observe targets and monitor atmospheric conditions and have a daily wage of 20,000 - 50,000 yen.

   Spotters Spotters Test Subjects

   Test subjects are the most dangerous job. Test subjects are used to examine the effects of newly-developed poisons or weapons. Depending on the risk level, they are paid 30,000 - 800,000 yen per test.

   Test Subjects Test Subjects Classes

   The type of classes taken by students are likely dependent on the major. Some classes have prerequisites, such as poisoning classes which require applicants to be third-year students.

   Much like a university or college, the JCC appears to have different majors that students can take. For example, both Akira Akao and Shin Asakura are first-year Assassination Majors. JCC classes includes ordinary lectures (such as "Intro to Assassin History") , but can be interspersed with hands-on demonstrations (e.g having two students take turns using a knife to fight in close-quarters combat classes) or practical exercises (e.g diving or gun assembly).

   There are 5 known departments, as shown on an advertisement brochure:

   暗殺科 - Assassination Department 暗殺特殊科 - Special Assassination Department 毒殺科 - Poisoning Department 武器製造科 - Weapon Manufacturing Department 諜報活動科 - Spy Department The JCC has graduation tests. Seniors (fourth-years) are given an "Assassin Permission Slip" which allows them to target a specific person for 24 hours. Whether this slip allows the test-taker to kill their target is unknown. Facilities

   In addition to normal facilities such as lecture halls, dormitories, libraries and gymnasiums, the JCC boasts modified or specialized facilities not seen in regular schools. Cafeteria

   In the cafeteria, students use low-power laser guns to shoot a distant board with buttons. Certain buttons give a receipt for a certain meal, which can then be paid for, with better meals having smaller and more infrequent buttons. The cafeteria is known to have a universally-disliked "JCC Bowl" (consisting of vegetable scraps, army rations and brown rice), a steak lunch and ramen. Natsuki Seba often uses his invisibility suit to walk right up to the board and shoot it, much to the annoyance of other students.

   A student carefully aims the gun... A student carefully aims the gun... ... and gets another JCC Bowl. ... and gets another JCC Bowl. Database

   The databank is a collection of school records of every student, past and present. In addition to body type, age, and gender the records also list the person's weapon of choice, martial arts specialties and post-graduation activities. The existence of the databank is dubious and a popular urban legend around the JCC and finding it is the goal of Sakamoto, Shin and Akira during the JCC Infiltration Arc.

   A man named Byodo is the database. Byodo is a man with a photographic memory, and Amane's grandfather.[1]

   Airport

   The JCC boasts an expansive airport, which is the only way to get in or out. It is large enough to maintain and deploy wide-body airliners.

   Diving Pool

   An expansive diving pool with a diving bell is seen during an expository section.

   JCC Pool Medical Center

   A medical center is mentioned by a student. Due to the JCC's severe training regimen and remote location, it is likely as well-equipped as a regular hospital.

   Weapons Research Department Laboratories

   Uzuki is a seemingly slim man of average height. He has medium-length white hair (blond in the digital colored manga) with a long fringe that often covers part of his emotionless blue, cat-like eyes, also covering even his nose when leaning forward. His hair also covers his ears and is styled in a messy, middle-part haircut. He usually wears a light grey turtleneck (light orange in the digital-colored manga) under a greyish-yellow coat (beige in the digital-colored manga) that reaches below his knees, alongside black pants (grey in the anime and beige in the digital-colored manga) and formal black shoes.

   When he was younger, during his time at the JCC, Uzuki wore the same turtleneck along with the same black pants and shoes but without the coat.

   After regaining control of his body, Shinaya described Uzuki as a good-looking man with white hair and a white suit.

   ADVERTISEMENT Personality

   Main Personality (Kei Uzuki)

   Kei Uzuki was initially portrayed as a calm and cold man, being able to kill a quarter of the assassins in cold blood without a hint of words. He is also a sadist, considering he almost lack any remorse for his killings and provoked Sakamoto by mentioning his 6-years old daughter when Sakamoto refused to fight with the intention of taking the former's life, hinting that he may harm Sakamoto's family if he were to be left alive.

   However, during his groups attack on the JAA, Uzuki showed a friendlier, more caring side which was seen through his conversation with Gaku and the remorse he felt at Uda's self-sacrifice for the others to escape Takamura. As he demonstrated multiple times, Uzuki's cold and deadly personality changes radically whenever he is alone with his friends or those he cares about, showing a softer and friendlier side of him which also seems more vulnerable.

   In the past, Uzuki was shown as a reserved, timid, and shy person who firmly believed that killing is wrong and did not kill assassins unless required by the mission or the specific target. His older brother Sei Asaki took advantage of it by threatening to kill Gaku and Uzuki's other friends in the orphanage where he was born if he failed to uphold his end of a deal. Asaki's threats might also have been the reason why Uzuki's main goal, after completing the mission to escort both the daughter and wife of the JAA chairman to safety, was to return to the orphanage where he was raised and save all his friends. His accidental murder of Rion Akao led to him abandoning his morals and become the villain that he is today.

   Uzuki suffers from Dissociative Identity Disorder, a condition which developed as a way for Uzuki to deal with the trauma. This condition allows Uzuki to create multiple personas, changing his own characteristics to match those of a specific individual; these personas remain even after the person they're based on dies and are so accurate that even other people who were close to the person whom Uzuki is emulating have trouble telling the difference, an example of this would be Sakamoto and Nagumo who admitted that Uzuki's Rion persona resembled their old friend so closely that it's hard to distinguish between the real Rion and Rion-Uzuki. Since the death of Haruma, Gaku's unknown fate, and the seeming assimilation of the Takamura personality, Uzuki has become a jaded and uncaring individual, a shell of his former self. He seemingly no longer cares about his foster siblings, letting the Rion Akao personality influence his opinions on Tenkyu and is fixated on the goal of destroying the Japanese Association of Assassins no matter the cost.

   Uzuki can also mimic, if not outright replicate, the individual's mannerisms and capabilities as well. An example of this can be seen with his Takamura personality who not only mutters unintelligibly just as the real Takamura did but is also a master swordsman, being able to match and eventually cut down the real Takamura despite Uzuki having not shown any proficiency with wielding a katana up to that point in the series.

   Rion Akao Personality

   The Rion Akao persona possesses a similar personality to the original Rion Akao and originally tried to protect him as it was her purpose, however, Uzuki did not reciprocate these feelings, dismissing her as a mere echo of his friend and intended to seal her away after his mission of dismantling the JAA was complete, recognizing his threat, she decided to put a bounty on Sakamoto's head so that he could kill Uzuki as she cannot directly kill him.

   Takamura Personality

   The Takamura persona is similar to the original Takamura. Although this persona lacks Takamura's loyalty to JAA and sense of justice, he maintaining the instinct in attacking anyone (even animals) who have aggression towards him. Upon getting this persona, Uzuki acts Takamura in most cases during battles.

   Allies

   Gaku

   Gaku and Uzuki first met at the Al-Kamar orphanage, where they were both raised as potential new members of the Order. Uzuki has demonstrated multiple times that he cares about Gaku and trusts him deeply, whom he considered as his own brother, as evidenced when Asaki took an 13-years old Gaku hostage and threatened to kill him if Uzuki failed to complete his mission to kill Kindaka.[2][3]

   After Uzuki indiscriminately murdered 34 people at the orphanage and saved Gaku, along with all the other teenagers, he then formed a group with them. Both Gaku and Uzuki seem to get along well together, mainly talking whenever there's a need to discuss the mission or anything related to the JAA. Gaku appears to be Uzuki's right-hand man in the whole group and also the one Uzuki trusts the most.

   Sei Asaki

   Asaki is Uzuki's older brother. As shown during the Taro Sakamoto's Past Arc, Uzuki used to fear his older brother. Asaki mostly used him for killing, exploiting Uzuki's reserved and timid personality and often threatening to harm his friends if he refused to cooperate. Later on, after Uzuki became Slur, he attempted to kill Asaki, who was the JAA chairman, showing that he no longer feared or felt timid around him. Asaki ordered Nagumo to kill whoever had taken over Uzuki's body during the Assassin Exhibition of the Century Arc and showed concern about Uzuki, asking why he had disappeared, although it is unknown whether this is genuine or an attempt to guilt-trip Uzuki.

   Rion Akao

   Uzuki first encountered Rion during their time as students at the JCC, just before they were about to depart for Kindaka to fulfill their mission. Rion consistently displayed friendly behavior towards Uzuki, who coldly rejected it. The two later reconciled and warmed up to each other during the mission. Following the deaths of both Higuchi and Kobayashi, Kindaka sacrificed himself to save Uzuki by providing him with the antidote, a moment that Rion noticed. Uzuki's response was to flee with Rion in pursuit.

   It is later revealed that Rion helped Uzuki escape, after he disclosed to her the reason why he committed the act.[3] Both of them then went off the grid together for more than a year. They became very close during this period of time, to the point of addressing each other using their respective given names.[4] Unfortunately, Uzuki was tricked into killing her by Asaki who tracked them down.[5]

   Years later, due to trauma caused by the murder, Uzuki's mind created a secondary personality resembling Rion's to protect himself.

   Sakamoto and Uzuki first met at the JCC when they, along with Nagumo and Rion, risked expulsion. Although Sakamoto and Uzuki didn't interact much, Sakamoto had always been somewhat wary of Uzuki even as students. Upon learning of Rion's death, Sakamoto fought against Uzuki, defeating him to avenge the death of his friend. Years later, Sakamoto discovered that Uzuki had survived their previous encounter. They crossed paths a few times, with Sakamoto unsuccessfully attempting to kill Uzuki again. Whenever Rion's personality takes control, Sakamoto immediately becomes more friendly and approachable, reminiscent of their interactions as students at the JCC. However, Sakamoto still appears somewhat confused about the sudden change in Uzuki's demeanor.

   ADVERTISEMENT Skills & Abilities

   Overall Skill Level: Uzuki is the leader of his eponymous group, X's Organization, and an extremely powerful assassin. He has demonstrated multiple times his immense abilities as an assassin and is insanely skillful.

   Master Combatant: Uzuki is an incredibly skilled fighter, capable of massacring a quarter of the assassin industry, a feat so great that the Order had to step in.

   Enhanced Speed: Uzuki is able to move extremely fast, appearing behind his opponents without them noticing. He is so fast that he is able to stab an out of shape Sakamoto in the stomach and even catch him off-guard with a swing of his whip, which Sakamoto didn't even notice until after the fight. He has also managed to slash both Shin and Asakura's abdomens before they even noticed or felt it.

   Enhanced Durability: Despite his skinny body, Uzuki is an extremely durable individual, as he was able to keep up with Sakamoto's blinding speed during their brief fight. He has also managed to survive being slashed by Takamura and catch off his katana.

   Enhanced Endurance: Uzuki managed to somehow survive numerous stabbings in the chest by Sakamoto.

   ADVERTISEMENT Medical Conditions

   Uzuki suffers from several medical conditions that have allowed him to survive otherwise fatal attacks and have access to combat abilities he normally does not have. Dissociative Identity Disorder

   Uzuki suffers from Dissociative Identity Disorder, which allows him to manifest alternate personas and use any combat abilities that he has witnessed. He has manifested at least two personas throughout the story. The process of persona creation is unclear, though it appears that Uzuki requires being under extreme stress in order to adopt and/or create a persona. It is likely Uzuki also needs to be interacting with a person, during the stressful situation, in order to create the persona, as all revealed personas so far have been copies of known characters that Uzuki has interacted with in stressful situations.

   Uzuki's personas adopt many facets of the person and the persona is based on. Uzuki's Rion personality is carefree and aloof like she is, even remembering some facts which implicitly only Rion should know. Uzuki's Takamura personality has his habit of unintelligible muttering. Uzuki's facial features significantly change as well, though his overall expression remains the same, so it is unclear if there are actual changes or this is merely a stylistic choice. These personas surface in different ways or triggers.

   Rion-Uzuki: Rion Akao was a member of the JCC and Uzuki's senior. They disappeared during an incident in the past and lived together for more than a year. Rion's persona has stated that she was manifested to protect Uzuki. Takamura-Uzuki: Takamura was known for his precise yet destructive ability to use a katana. Uzuki manifested this personality when he fought against Takamura in order to preserve himself. While in this persona, Uzuki managed to steal Takamura's katana and cut him in half, killing him. In most cases during fights, this persona surfaces due to Takamura's sensitivity response to aggression. Situs Inversus

   Uzuki suffers from Situs Inversus, which is a medical condition in which a person's major internal organs are reversed or mirrored from their normal positions. This is a rare condition that is not widely known, which is how Uzuki survived attacks that would normally be fatal from Sakamoto[5] and Nagumo[6], as they targeted non-vital areas (for Uzuki) that are normally vital.

   ADVERTISEMENT Equipment

   Sword-Whip: Uzuki uses a sword-whip, made of a metallic blade divided in multiple sections of a segmented blade which Uzuki uses with long-range attacks and still be able to counter at close range. By using his sword-whip, he managed to temporary block Takamura's arm, forcing him to cut it off and attach it back since he was unable to free from the weapon's grasp.

   Katana: Uzuki has used Takamura's katana, stolen from Takamura during combat after manifesting a new Takamura persona. The katana is extremely sharp and durable, capable of slicing through thick steel and concrete with no visible damage to the katana.

(1) Rion Akao (赤尾あかおリオン, Akao Rion?) was an old friend of Taro Sakamoto and Nagumo from their time as students at JCC and is the aunt of Akira Akao, having taught her how to see the "paths" which lead to a person's death.

   Seven years before the series, Rion was killed by Kei Uzuki.[3][4]

   Appearance

   Rion was a tall, slender and attractive young woman with turquiose shoulder-length hair (blue in the anime) and yellow eyes with white pupils and she had thin eyebrows with long eyelashes. Rion also had a tattoo on her right arm, resembling the Orion constellation.

   In her first appearance in Sakamoto's memories and during most of the time at the JCC, she was seen wearing a white tank top with a partially zipped, off-shoulder black jacket and a pair of black pants along with black shoes.

   When she first met Uzuki, she did not wear her usual black jacket, instead wearing a long sleeved shirt.

   During her time spent with Uzuki while hiding from the JAA, Rion wore a large high-necked black jacket with a hood which she used to cover her face. Beneath the jacket, Rion wore her usual white tank top and a pair of black shorts.

   Rion's color scheme as seen on Volume 13. Rion's color scheme as seen on Volume 13. Rion's appearance during her times at the JAA Rion's appearance during her times at the JAA Personality

   Rion was a carefree woman who used to do whatever she wanted even if that would lead to consequences[5]. She used to have fun with her friends Sakamoto and Nagumo, sometimes even getting into trouble or causing damage to public structures and buildings like destroying trains[6] or involving the surroundings around her during her fight.

   Rion was a very warm and friendly person. She was the only one among her friends, Nagumo, and Sakamoto, who tried to make friends with and talk or interact with Uzuki when he was introduced as the final member of their team in their mission to kill the Steel Dragon. [7] She would often engage in one-sided, rapid-fire conversations with no tact whatsoever.[8]

   Rion has been shown to be fiercely protective of the ones she cares about, and is willing to risk herself to protect the ones she cares for. She is aware of this, sharing this fact with Sakamoto when he exposed himself to poison to protect his team, and sharing this with Uzuki when he asked how she would weigh the lives of those she cared for against the lives of others.[9] When she ends up on the run with Uzuki from the JAA, she willingly risks exposing herself to the JAA to undertake illegal freelance assassination jobs so Uzuki does not have to, knowing his personality. She is also willing to help Uzuki attack the Al-Kamar Orphanage despite having no personal attachment to it. [10] Relationships

   Yoichi Nagumo

   Rion would first meet Nagumo during their time at the JCC, after he joined the assassin department. The Sakamoto-Nagumo-Rion trio were close friends during their time at the JCC, considered excellent students and troublemakers, especially by Etsuko Satoda. They would eventually be expelled together, and would be introduced together to Kindaka and the Order as a result. They seemed to get along really well, undertaking missions together and even defeating Kobayashi with the assistance of Sakamoto and Kindaka.

   After Rion's disappearance, Nagumo had done everything to find out about her whereabouts. To the point of rescuing Satoru Yotsumura so he could order the latter on doing some investigation from inside the JAA, as well as financing Kindaka's treatment for eight years, holding on any slim hope of getting the clue that she's still alive.[11][12]

   Nagumo would hesitate to attack Uzuki when his Rion persona took control of his body, and took a hit from Takamura during the Assassin Exhibition of the Century Arc.

   Taro Sakamoto

   Rion and Sakamoto get to know each other during their shared time at the JCC. Throughout their time at the JCC, Rion, Sakamoto, and Nagumo would often be seen together, and be recognized as both excellent students and troublemakers. Eventually, Rion would be expelled from the JCC, together with Sakamoto and Nagumo.

   Rion would be tasked to kill the Steel Dragon as her final mission with the JCC, together with Sakamoto, Nagumo, and Uzuki. While Rion, Sakamoto, and Uzuki sit around to prevent the spread of the poison they were exposed to and wait their turn for the antidote, Rion would express respect for Sakamoto for defeating Higuchi and Kobayashi, who were collectively worth 1 billion yen on the JAA bounty website, saying he was worth that much. She would find herself relating to Sakamoto after seeing him put the others over himself.[9]

   Kei Uzuki

   Rion and Uzuki met for the first time just before their expulsion mission against Kindaka. Initially, Uzuki remained reserved and rebuffed Rion's friendly demeanor. However, after Rion apologized for her behavior, they engaged in a small conversation inside the car while escorting the daughter and wife of JAA chairman. Her words about killing even her own heart to save people precious to her resonated with him. His attempt to drop the remaining antidote was foiled by Kindaka, at the cost of the latter's own life. Rion witnessed this, and pursued the fleeing Uzuki along the tunnel.[13] After catching up and listening to Uzuki's side of the story, Rion helped him escape the JAA operatives before going off the grid together, for more than a year.[14]

   During their time in exile, they grew closer and implicitly develop a relationship.[15] Rion shared a lot of information to Uzuki, such as Nagumo's spy lineage[16], her niece Akira[17], Sakamoto's chastity[8] and her I.D. number as well.[18] They also discussed about living a normal life away from assassins world, with Rion believing neither of them deserved one because of the killings they committed.[19]

   Unfortunately, their tranquil life did not last long. Sei Asaki, Uzuki's brother and JAA's new chairman, tracked them down and tricked them into killing each other. Rion did not even blame Uzuki after he murdered her, instead attributing it to Asaki.

   Kindaka

   Rion and Kindaka's interactions were limited to situational necessity, particularly during their mission to escort the Chairman's daughter and wife. Despite their close proximity, they never engaged an actual conversation. Kindaka expressed an interest in Rion's path ability and special vision, However, he held back from exploring the topic further. This hesitation might have stemmed from his condition after being poisoned by Kobayashi, which might have prevented him from further probing into Rion's abilities.

   Akira Akao

   Rion is Akira's aunt and is fiercely protective of her. Rion has stated that she would kill someone else without hesitation if it was about protecting Akira, even if it meant killing her own heart.[9] Even though it was never shown any interaction between them, both Akira and Rion proved to care a lot about each other and have a strong bond, as demonstrated by Akira becoming an assassin just to follow her aunt's path. Rion was also the same person who taught Akira how to see the "paths" which lead to a person's death which Akira still currently uses.

   History

   Currently, there isn't much information about Rion's history. The only few details given are about her kinship with Akira and about Rion being Akira's aunt, as well as their close relationship. Skills & Abilities

   Rion wheelchair Rion uses a wheelchair to close the distances with Kobayashi Overall Skill Level: Rion was one of the three greatest prospects to ever step foot into the JCC. During combat training sessions, she would routinely match the fighting capabilities of Taro Sakamoto and Yoichi Nagumo.[20] Rion excelled in direct confrontations as she could see the most efficient way of dealing with enemies and utilize her weapons to the max. This allowed her to put Kindaka, an Order Member, onto the defensive, making him praise her combat skills.[21] Kindaka states that Rion has the potential to be a future leader of the assassin world, alongside Taro Sakamoto and Nagumo. And also stated that Rion's killing pathway has zero wasted movements, forcing him to go on defensive.[22] She was also able to defeat a young Kei Uzuki without sustaining any injuries.[23]

   Vehicular Mastery: Rion has showed to be skillful enough to use a motorcycle as a weapon, whipping the rear wheel into Higuchi's face, dragging him all through a public bus.

   ADVERTISEMENT Personality

   Akira is a very kind-hearted girl, though she is shy and prone to be scared, easily anxious when she is alone or in an unfamiliar place like JCC during her first week. She is not hesitant to taking care of people around her, which often leads to her being easily pushed into unwanted situations. Despite this, Akira is shown to be determined to achieve her goal of finding her aunt Rion Akao, demonstrated during her time at JCC where she accepted the challenge proposed by one of her teachers, Etsuko Satoda who allowed her, Shin and Seba to attack her freely for 24 hours to get a hint on the database.

   Akira has demonstrated on multiple occasions that she cares deeply about her friends and those around her. She bases most of her choices, and even her life as an assassin, on her aunt Rion, whom she has looked up to and followed as a role model since childhood. Akira often demonstrates her inspiration by Rion and feels they are similar despite their differences. This connection leads her to sometimes refuse help from others and gain courage on her own, always considering how Rion would react in a given situation. Such as, during her first encounter with Sakamoto on the plane, she refused the bullets he offered, stating that Rion would not have accepted them in her place.[2]

   She also has a more bloodthirsty side that emerges when she is fighting people who have hurt her friends, and she has no problem injuring or murdering her opponents. A trait that seems to run in her family, demonstrated after Kanaguri revealed to her that her aunt Rion had died. However, once she snaps out of this state, she is shown to be averse to killing. This is shown when she panicked during the JCC Transfer Exams Arc after she and Sakamoto were captured by the other applicants. She panicked while trying to free Sakamoto from the trap, which led to their attack on her.

   ADVERTISEMENT Relationships

   Shin Asakura

   Akira first met Shin during the JCC exams on the initial airplane, where she spotted him sitting next to Sakamoto and immediately recognized him as a newbie. Later, when the plane began to fall, she helped him save himself by sewing all their clothes together to create a makeshift parachute and avoid the fall. During their time at the JCC, Akira, Shin, and Natsuki Seba cooperated closely to find the database. Their teamwork got noticed by Etsuko Satoda, who remarked that Akira's fighting style during their attempts to get the database felt almost like playing with Rion in the past.

   Rion Akao

   Akira is Rion's niece and has shown great affection and admiration for her aunt. Instead of becoming a housekeeper as her parents suggested, she chose to follow her aunt's path and become an assassin. She frequently states that she takes Rion as her inspiration and role model, often thinking about her during her experiences at the JCC. Rion was also the one who taught Akira how to see paths and once attempted to teach her how to use guns, though unsuccessfully.

   Taro Sakamoto

   Akira first saw Sakamoto on an airplane during a JCC test. Initially feeling sorry for Sakamoto and Shin since she believed they were newbies, Akira's perspective changed once Sakamoto weaponized a ballpoint pen and protected her from gunfire afterwards. Sakamoto's skill awed and motivated Akira, inspiring her to eventually sew a parachute together using clothes from other students during a fall.

   Etsuko Satoda

   Akira met Satoda during her time at the JCC while she was searching for the database with Seba and Shin. She attempted to attack and defeat Satoda multiple times to obtain a hint about the database. After finally succeeding in her objective, Akira didn't encounter Satoda again until Slur's attack on the JCC, where she found Satoda already injured and deceased after a confrontation with Kanaguri.[3]

   Kanaguri

   Akira first met Kanaguri on the plane during her entrance exam for the JCC. He immediately took an interest in her, declaring Akira the star of his new film before making the airplane explode. Akira met Kanaguri again during the JCC Infiltration Arc. After discovering her teacher Etsuko Satoda's death, she was shocked, prompting Kanaguri to take an interest in her once more. He expressed his desire to have her as the main character of his film, but Sakamoto stopped him from going further. After Kanaguri's encounter with Sakamoto and his subsequent defeat, Kanaguri was saved by Akira. After discovering her aunt's death, she threatened Kanaguri and made a deal with him: he would take Akira to Slur in exchange for allowing Kanaguri to continue recording his film.[4]

   ADVERTISEMENT Skills & Abilities

   Overall Skill Level: Akira has shown and demonstrated multiple times of being a talented assassin, easily dispatching the applicants during the JCC entrance test in the island who attempted to attack her while she was trying to free Sakamoto. Also demonstrating immediate reflexes and ability in blocking Sakamoto's decisive hit towards Kanaguri, saving the latter one before threatening him to take her to Slur. Akira also managed to react in time to a multiple attack from Shin, Seba and Amane, utilizing her special vision.

   Paths: Akira has the ability to see paths, an ability taught by her aunt Rion who allows the user to see Imaginary lines representing future actions she can take to kill a particular target. Akira has demonstrated to see multiple paths for the same enemy at one time, indicating that she can simultaneously consider and select between a number of routes to eliminate her foes, such as when she fought against her teacher Satoda. She used this ability multiple times during her times at the JCC, particularly during her entrance exam at the JCC and during all her following fights. When faced with very powerful opponents or stronger than her, Akira instead envisions an impassable cliff between them and her, causing her to be anxious or shocked most of the time.

   Enhanced Speed: Akira was able to close in on and assault a JCC applicant without him being able to react. She even interfered in the middle of Sakamoto and Kanaguri's fight, blocking Sakamoto's final attack, which would have led to Kanaguri's defeat. Akira can also sew extremely fast, even while falling and in mid-air. This skill saved Sakamoto, Shin, Mafuyu, and Kill Baby when she sewed a parachute from their clothes while falling from a plane. She has excellent control over her speed, demonstrated by her ability to pluck a butterfly from Baby Kill's shoulder without harming or bothering it.[5]

   Sewing: Akira is a masterful sewer, as noted by Sakamoto. She was able to stitch together the clothes of Sakamoto, Shin, and Kill Baby, managing to create a parachute in midair while falling from a plane after Kanaguri killed the pilots.[6]

Shin was also able to dive down, retrieve an unconscious Toramaru, and swim back to the surface.[10] In his battle with Haruma , Shin gives a blow punch and threw Haruma out of the arena(sumo), Haruma admits that Shin’s blows are suprisingly powerful. Shin’s blows made Tenkyu’s mouth bleed and knocked out one of his teeth.

    Enhanced Speed: In addition to his clairvoyance, Shin was able to avoid blows from Toramaru and Shinaya, both special-recommendation JAA applicants. During a fight on a rollercoaster track, Shin was able to dodge an incoming cart and evade throwing knives in midair [11], as well as an airsoft bullet being fired by Kill Baby even when he is wearing a blindfold .[12] In his battle with Tenkyu,Shin commands his mind to function at max power. In other words, Shin can push his brain to process at peak speed, this made everything he saw slow down.

    Enhanced Durability: Shin was able to take blows from Shinaya, who was able to send fellow assassins flying with one hand. After being sent flying across a theme park and crashing onto a stage, Shin got up with no difficulty.[13] Shin was even able to take casual strikes from Sakamoto. Shin was still able to stand up even though Haruma slammed him and received a blow from Haruma. in his battle with Tenkyu, Shin was still able to survive and win even though he suffered many injuries to his body due to falling from a height, arrow shots, punches and materials such as rocks.

    Clairvoyance: Shin can read and feel the minds/thoughts of people within a 400-meter radius (chapter 193) it works by tuning into their minds like a radio. He can pick out specific people due to their emotional state, typically using this to predict enemy movements or deduce what they're thinking. However, Shin clairvoyance is less beneficial if the person's thoughts are too overwhelming for him to read (e.g., Lu Wutang)[14], or if the opponent is too fast for him to react anyway. His ability is dependent on electromagnetic brainwaves; Natsuki Seba's hood, which blocks such waves, can prevent Shin from reading his mind.[15]

    Precognition: By reading a person's motor-readiness potential (i.e., the spike in activity in the brain's motor areas before a muscle movement), Shin can see the future actions of someone. In the manga, this precognition is visualized by several juxtapositions of what will happen. However, overusing this ability causes great pain. Granny Miya comments that Shin should only use his precognition for 5 minutes a day.[16]

    Mind Control: He can forcefully rewrite their thoughts, forcing them to comply to the new action.[17][18] The drawback of this command is that he cannot use this ability on the same person multiple times, as shown in his battle against Tenkyu where he could not stop him after stopping him once before; however, this drawback isn't present when rewriting his own thoughts, meaning he can use it on himself as much as he wants.[19] He is also able to rewrite the thoughts of multiple people at a time, including, but not limited to, an entire town of people.[20]

    Miscellaneous Assassin Training: As an assassin, Shin also acquired several essential skills such as basic martial arts, gun handling, and a degree of poison tolerance.

    Swimming skills: Even after falling into the JAA Jail's lowest floor's lake as a result of falling into a crater in the ground created by Tenkyu, Shin somehow manages to show some great swimming skills.[21]

    Power Glove: Created by Natsuki Seba, the glove gives Shin access to enhanced strength by turning off the limiter in his brain to utilize his latent potential. When attacking with the glove, there is a delayed reaction which requires Shin to look into the future to use it properly. The more of a delay there is, the more powerful the attack. Upon receiving the glove initially, the delay is set to 0.5 seconds

(1) Osaragi (大佛おさらぎ, Osaragi?) was one of the newest members of the Order, a group of the strongest assassins within the JAA.

    Appearance

    Osaragi is a young beautiful woman of average build with long, straight black hair with uneven, fringe bluish-grey eyes (red in the manga). She has a slim build and face that rarely shows expressive emotions in most cases.

    She wears a dark purple dress with floral mesh sleeves, a transparent veil over her head and black shoes in a fashion to someone attending a funeral. Personality

    Osaragi can be described as a childish woman who often acts on impulse without forethought. This is evident when she casually stopped to pray at a shrine despite being targeted by Death Row serial killers. She also has a habit of comparing people to animals, such as likening Sakamoto to a bear or Dump to an echidna.

    She exhibits a general sense of apathy, displaying little emotion even in high-stakes situations. She remains composed in battle, engaging in casual conversations and expressing strange, mundane thoughts—such as wondering how Dump stores her prosthetic spikes or regretting not bringing band-aids.

    She is blunt and tends to shift blame for trivial matters, often pinning them on Shishiba. However, she can also be extremely apologetic, sometimes for things entirely unrelated to her, though she later realizes and acknowledges this.

    Osaragi has a strong fondness for food, once suggesting eating pork cutlets before a job—an idea she later blamed on Shishiba. She frequently purchases large quantities of snacks but only shares them on her own terms.

    Osaragi also appears to have some religious inclinations or at least respects tradition. She prayed at a shrine and forcefully "taught" Dump how to pray by repeatedly smashing her into a bowing position after damaging the shrine. However, she has no qualms about desecrating religious sites if it serves her purposes, such as destroying Buddha statues.

    After eliminating Dump, she has become more conscious of collateral damage and is attempting to kill more discreetly. Shishiba reprimanded her, reminding her that normal people are disturbed by the sight of corpses. She now tries to avoid involving innocent lives in her battles, believing they deserve a normal life free from the world of violence and death. Skills & Abilities

    The trend in assassins nowadays is toward young girls with circular saws who grew up on farms.

    SHISHIBA TO YOTSUMURA. Overall Skill Level: Osaragi is one of the strongest assassins in Japan as a member of the Order.[2] According to Shishiba, she was just an ordinary young woman who grew up on a farm without a connection to the assassin world, indicating that Osaragi is a prodigy when it comes to assassination.[3]

    She was able to overpower and kill Dump, an A-ranked serial killer who had murdered over 180 people.[4] The Geisha, a skilled assassin who was able to evade one of Satoru Yotsumura's attacks, was helplessly outmatched and killed by Osaragi.[3] Even someone as powerful as Carolina Reaper, a deadly combatant within X's Organization, was easily dismembered and killed by Osaragi after she caught him off guard.[5]

    Master Combatant: As a member of the Order, Osaragi is a highly skilled combatant. In battle she uses a unique collapsible buzzsaw as her primary weapon. She uses it in close range as a normal buzzsaw[4] and for medium range she uses the cord to hurl the saw around like a flail, wrapping it around objects and pulling it back to deliver unpredictable attacks from different angles.[6] The cord is also used to pull her targets towards her.[3]

    Even without her buzzsaw, Osaragi has shown to be a skilled fighter who can use the objects around her as weapons. By using the prayer equipment, coins and a buddha statue in combination with her hand-to-hand combat skill she was able to overpower Dump with relative ease.[7][4] She also nearly killed Mafuyu Seba, who had undergone extensive training with Gaku and wore a mask to greatly enhance his physical abilities at the cost of some of his lifespan after fighting him in hand-to-hand combat.[8]

    Enhanced Speed: Osaragi is incredibly fast, being able to easily bisect Kashima's core gang of underlings in a split second before they could react. Osaragi's reflexes and reaction speed are also outstanding, being able to stop a sneak attack and defend herself with just a coin in less than a second as well as consistently evading a barrage of attacks from Dump, even getting behind her in the blink of an eye. Additionally, she could casually destroy falling rubble without looking and caught up with Shishiba and Nagumo after they accidentally left her behind.

    Enhanced Strength: Despite her slender frame, Osaragi has incredible physical strength, being able to easily overpower Dump and smash her head into a stone statue, shattering it as a result. She was able to decapitate a large buddha statue and kick the head with enough force blow away Dump from the top of the shrine down to near the entrance. When using her chainsaw, she was able to cut down the torii gates along with Dump in one swift strike.

    When attacking Yotsumura the second time, her strike was powerful enough to send him through 5 rows of housings. And later she casually grabbed the umbrella that the Geisha was using, with the Geisha being unable to even budge it. Osaragi promptly cut the previously impervious umbrella in half along with the room and injured the Geisha.

    While unconscious after being injured by Uzuki-Takamura's slash, Shishiba took her upon his shoulder to retreat from the New Order's grasp, but was hindered because she did not let go of her buzzsaw. Shishiba himself notes the weight of her weapon[9]; her ability to carry it even through her unconsciousness is proof of her outstanding physical strength.

    Enhanced Durability: Osaragi was able to leap from the top of a highway and land at the bottom without any issues. She is also indifferent to pain, having shown unfazed expressions after being impaled through the hand by one of Dump spikes or when she rammed her hand deeper into the spike in order to grapple the killer without visible discomfort. She was stabbed by the Geisha's umbrella multiple times after getting immobilized without taking any damage at all. Equipment

    Collapsible Buzzsaw: Osaragi's primary weapon is a seemingly ordinary suitcase which, upon entering combat, can open up to reveal a massive buzzsaw with trailing, severed cables that she can wield with incredible ease.

    Osaragi's Buzzsaw Osaragi's buzzsaw. Despite seemingly being unpowered, the circular saw is still incredibly lethal. Osaragi has also been shown to be able to use the severed cables to hurl the saw around like a flail, even letting it wrap around objects to hit enemies from unpredictable angles.

(1) Gaku (楽がく, Gaku?) is one of the two secondary antagonists (alongside Kashima) of Sakamoto Days.

    He was an assassin working with Slur and a member of X's Organization as he aids him in overthrowing the JAA. He was an orphan at the Al-Kamar Orphanage, a failed plan to create Order members.

    Appearance

    Gaku was a tall and muscular young man with spiky slicked back bluish-grey hair and hot pink eyes adorned with a red eyeliner in the outer corner. He wears a pair of black square-shaped earrings, a high-collared navy blue jacket with a yellow button that loosely falls around his body that is covered in multiple scars with the sleeves rolled up, bandaged hands, navy blue baggy pants and white sneakers with light grey stripes and a black lace (the sneakers are fully white in the manga). He always carries his weapon wrapped in bandanges over a bag in its right arm.

    After his fight with Takamura during the events of the JAA raid, Gaku lost his right ear, parts of his left middle and ring fingers, and his entire right hand. Later on, Kashima would reattach Gaku's fingers and hand but would not be able to reattach Gaku's ear. As he now wears a circular-shaped patch in the place of his missing ear.

    When Gaku was 13-years old, he had a skinny body and wears a black tank top shirt and a pair of white shorts.

    Gaku is shown to be an extremely calm and laidback individual who rarely got agitated or angry, even during fights or life-and-death situations such as when he lost an arm during his encounter with Takamura[5]. He often compared real life to a video game, describing a deadly injury as a "speedrun to death" or describing killing itself as a "game". His nonchalant attitude was shown on multiple occasions, such as when he ate snacks or played video games in the middle of a fight. For instance, he compared fighting against the JJA applicants while controlling Shinaya to playing Resident Evil or even using the restroom after getting blasted through a door.

    Besides his extremely casual behavior, Gaku was also be an extremely brutal person to deal with, killing JAA members many times without hesitation or mercy. He disregarded any pain or collateral damage done to Shinaya when he overexerted the man's body while controlling him and was shown to have fun during fights or even when killing a strong opponent, commenting that the action of killing is something you have to enjoy or it's a waste. Relationships

    Allies

    Uzuki

    Gaku is one of the orphans raised in the Al-Kamar Orphanage along with Uzuki, Kumanomi and several other orphans such as Haruma. After Uzuki managed to free all the orphans from the orphanage, Gaku along with a few of them became part of the X's Organization. When Gaku was still 13, Asaki (then in charge of the Al-Kamar orphanage) would take him hostage as a way to force Uzuki to kill Kindaka and once Uzuki had killed Rion Akao, he managed to free Gaku.[6]

    Kumanomi

    Both Kumanomi and Gaku grew up in the Al-Kamar Orphanage and were later freed by Uzuki. Kumanomi has shown to care deeply about Gaku, treating him as a little brother and constantly worrying about him, even starting to cry after witnessing Gaku getting hurt and injured by Nagumo during their fight. Kumanomi has always shown to be very protective towards Gaku, pursuing and attacking Hyo after discovering that an Order member had cut off his ear.

    Takamura

    Despite never knowing Takamura in the first place, he saw him as a enemy. As he ended up slicing both Gaku´s ears, arms and fingers in a fight, causing him to be stitched by Kashima like some sort of doctor. Later on when he invaded the museum, he insulted Takamura after biting the blade of its katana and blinded him until he got impaled to death.

    Skills & Abilities

    Overall Skill Level: Gaku is an extremely strong assassin that had demonstrated to be incredibly deadly, massacring hundreds of JAA members with his ease as well as somewhat hold his own against Takamura, an extremely skilled and deadly member of the Order. During their fight, Nagumo stated that Gaku is the strongest opponent he’s ever fought.[7]

    Master Combatant: Gaku is a very skilled combatant, able to use his large mace in battle with great proficiency and capable of using a one-inch punch with incredible force behind it.[8] His combat prowess, by Nagumo, was said to be monstrous[9] and even resemble Taro Sakamoto when he was younger.[10]

    Enhanced Strength: Gaku has tremendous physical strength, such as swinging his large mace around with ease, disemboweling a JAA guard with a single punch[11] and later on proceeded to tear apart multiple assassins with his mace.[12] When controlling Shinaya, Gaku was nigh-unstoppable, wiping out almost every JCC faculty on the island, overwhelming Shin Asakura and Joichiro Kaji as well as other applicants like Mafuyu Seba and Nao Toramaru. Gaku had proved his strength multiple times, sending Nagumo crash through multiple walls of a museum with a single swing of his mace and sending him fly with a single punch.[13]

    Enhanced Speed: Gaku is extremely fast, moving so quickly that even several skilled JAA members were unable to defend themselves from his attacks.[12] He also managed to outrun shots from machine guns.[14] When controlling Shinaya, Gaku was able to quickly respond to Sakamoto's attacks. His speed was shown to be on par with Nagumo.[15] After his awakening and speedrun to death, Gaku has shown to be even faster, sending Nagumo to fly and hitting him multiple times without him being able to react.

    Enhanced Endurance: Gaku has tremendous levels of stamina and tolerance to pain, he was capable of taking multiple strikes that would kill any normal human being, and remains completely unfazed. After losing right hand, right ear as well as two of his fingers, by Takamura, he barely flinched and continued fighting, reacting by throwing his lost arm towards his opponent.

    Enhanced Durability: Gaku is also able to still fight after sustaining multiple attacks from Nagumo and receiving a lethal stabinn his gut, managing to keep up with him even after getting stabbed both in the arm and in his stomach.[16] Equipment

    Mace: Gaku carried around a mace-like weapon with a pole and cubical head covered in spikes, vaguely resembling that of a meat tenderizer. The tip of the mace also shot laser beams. It was destroyed in his fight with Takamura but was later replaced.

    TO X'S ORGANIZATION[4] Takamura (篁タカムラ, Takamura ?) was a member of the Order, a group consisting of the strongest members within the JAA. He was the main character that appeared in two previous one-shots, Garaku and Locker Room, both written by Yuuto Suzuki. He was a major antagonist of the Assassin Exhibition of the Century Arc.

    ADVERTISEMENT Appearance

    Takamura was a frail-looking elderly man with slicked back white hair and beady black eyes that are often seen closed. He wears a white polo shirt under a tan business suit, pants and black shoes. Takamura is always seen with his katana, sometimes using it casually for things like a resting cane when he sits down.

    Takamura as seen in the Volume 19 cover. Takamura as seen in the Volume 19 cover. Personality

    Takamura was described as a "killer with no brakes." Outside of combat, he rarely spoke, with most of his dialogue consisting of incomprehensible muttering. However, he was fully capable of speaking coherently, as seen both towards the end of Garaku oneshot and officially when facing X's Organization. Despite this, he often ignored others and acted according to his own will, though he was highly sensitive to aggression and hostility.

    In combat, Takamura primarily relied on instinct, attacking those who displayed hostility toward him(even to a fly). However, he also targeted individuals marked by the JAA or the Order, regardless of their intent. He paid little regard to his surroundings, often allowing collateral damage in pursuit of his targets.

    Despite his ruthless nature, Takamura demonstrated a sense of justice, camaraderie, or loyalty. He willingly assisted his former colleague, Taro Sakamoto, in preventing the collapse of Tokyo Tower. However, his allegiance to the JAA took precedence, as he did not hesitate to attempt to kill Sakamoto and Nagumo once Sei Asaki placed hits on them during the Assassination Exhibit. His commitment to his duty extended to self-sacrifice, exemplified when he severed his own arm to escape a trap set by X's Organization. Quote

    You think I'm senile, don't you?

    To X's Organization[5] Tsk...!

    Takamura's last word.[6] Skills & Abilities

    Overall Skill Level: Takamura was considered to be the strongest assassin in the JAA and the raw power of Order, to the point Slur had hoped he was dead during their attempt to take over the JAA. Even in his advanced age, he possessed incredible destructive power and speed. Sakamoto speculated that Takamura had grown stronger since the former's time in the JAA.[7].

    As a testament to his strength, Slur speculated during their raid that Gaku may have been the only person to have survive a fight with Takamura despite being severely injured from his slashes. Currently, Takamura is the only person shown to take down Sakamoto, Nagumo, Uzuki, Gaku, and Haruma at the same time with relative ease.

    Enhanced Speed and Reflexes: Takamura was deceptively fast even when his eyes are closed. He could move faster than the average human eye can see even when he is walking slowly and perceive to slash a lot of opponents before they can even conceive what is happening. Takamura's speed was shown to be superior to even his fellow peers like Sakamoto and Nagumo. He simultaneously cut Sakamoto and Nagumo without Sakamoto being able to see the attack until it happened.[8]

    Enhanced Strength: Even in his old age, Takamura had incredible physical strength. On separate occasions, he was able to block attacks from Gaku with one hand, and the other from Sakamoto, as well slicing half of the museum simply by bracing his sheathe against the floor. He can block a blow from Gaku's giant mace with his sheathed sword without any visible effort or negative after-effects.[9] Takamura used his strength to swing his sword with a destructive force that extended far beyond the reach of his blade. His grip strength is strong enough to hold a JAA assassin in position by pinching their nose through a hole in a door despite the assassin actively trying to break free.[10]

    Master Swordsman: Takamura was a highly skilled master swordsman, being a supremely powerful user of iaijutsu (iai techniques). He once decapitated a JAA assassin with enough swiftness and precision that they had enough time to see their severed head spinning in a mirror.[10] He was capable of cutting through several physical structures during his attacks, including museum support pillars,[7] the support legs of the Tokyo Tower, vending machines,[9] toilet cubicles, and various small buildings.[7] [9]

    Takamura's cuts were so clean enough that severed limbs could be reattached to their owners and retain full functionality, even after several hours if minor surgery is given.[11]

    Master Combatant: Takamura was an unstoppable killing force in combat. He usually dispatched most of his enemies quickly, making most of his battles short-lived, but he was also able to hold his own in prolonged battles. Takamura was highly adaptable and could quickly counter an opponent's moves to keep the advantage in his favor, doing this even against multiple skilled opponents and trade blows with little to no harm inflicted on himself relative to his opponents. He is skilled enough in battle to use a bullet shot at him as a means to sharpen his katana mid-fight.[9] Equipment

    Katana: Takamura carried a simple, old katana. It is extremely sharp and durable, capable of slicing through thick steel and concrete with no visible damage to the katana.

    Katana's Sheathe: Takamura's katana sheathe has been shown to be strong enough to withstand direct impacts from Gaku and Sakamoto on separate occasions.

(1) Amane Yotsumura (四ヨツ村ムラ周あまね, Yotsumura Amane?) is a supporting character in Sakamoto Days. He is a second-year Assassin Major at the JCC and the son of ex-Order member Satoru Yotsumura and maternal grandson of Byodo. Due to his hate for the JAA, Amane was initially a Slur follower and worked to bring the JAA down under Kashima's command.

    ADVERTISEMENT Appearance

    Amane is a tall and slim teenager with blue eyes and black medium-length hair with short bangs covering the forehead. He wears a loose white t-shirt with black circle signs on the elbows and rolled-up sleeves with black pants, shoes and suspenders kept with a golden yellow fivel. He has a somehow mature build for his age at the point of even making Shishiba disagreeing he is 14 and wondering if is still going to school. [1]

    ADVERTISEMENT Personality

    Amane is a somewhat sensitive teenager with a strong resolve that shows to have a strong hate towards his father for killing his mother, which is later resolved. His hatred runs equally deep, and he is determined to avenge his mother's death. Similarly, this leds Amane to be pretty crude and rebellious at the point of disliking the teachers at the JCC, refusing to take classes and telling his classmates not to talk to Sakamoto who was disguised as a teacher.

    Despite his initial attitude towards the JCC, Amane is surprisingly sincere, as seen when he apologizes to his dormmates after proclaiming that everyone in the JAA should die, forgetting that his friends had relatives in the organization. Similarly, Amane gets along well with fellow JCC students, even helping one prepare for a test and being visibly disturbed at their potential deaths when Kashima announced his intention to kill them. He is also shown to be empathetic and compassionate towards people he cares about, like when he hesitated to fight back against his brainwashed friends and became passive.

    After leaving the JCC to search for his father with Sakakmoto and Shin, he showed a lack of understanding social norms and how to live normally (could almost say he’s a bit dense socially), like not knowing what a register was and when he shot a vending machine, because of how he grew up. Since he’s only known the JCC for majority of his life, “normal” society is something he isn’t too familiar with, whether it be new foods, having to learn social awareness, whatever. Additionally, Amane has shown to be almost as good as his grandfather when it comes to memory, and was considered strong, even by shin, for his age. Like his grandfather, he also possesses photographic memory and art skills. Since everything is new to him, he also seems to get impressed easily.

    Nevertheless, as mentioned before, Amane is very emotional/sensitive and does hold grudges, like to his father for “killing his mother” and when he wanted to kill Kashima for attacking the JCC once they brought him back to Japan after the Bangkok arc.

    He is also very intelligent and logical, as shown when he was the only one thinking about how the bomb would be transported into the museum and how he learnt two languages in one plane flight. He also seems to know a lot about weaponry and science.

    ADVERTISEMENT Skills & Abilities

    Despite being a JCC student, Amane is remarkably skilled enough to even to defend himself from Sakamoto disguised.

    Enhanced Speed: Using his weapon, Amane was able to successfully snatch a keyring from Sakamoto while falling through the stairs, Amane ran fast enough to appear as a blur and also able to keep up with Sakamoto during a brief hand-to-hand battle.

    Enhaced Reflexes: Amane was able to slice off Club Jam's hand seconds before he could clap, much less react to his attack.[2]

    Enhanced Memory and Observation: Like his grandfather, Amane has a powerful memory and sharp perception. He was able to notice slight changes about a disguised Sakamoto's build and clothing that lead him to be suspicious of him and has photographic memory.

    Intelligence: Despite skipping classes, Amane is a very intelligent student, as he even said to had top grades. He incorporates his knowledge into his strategies while killing. As seen when fighting Kumanomi and Carolina Reaper with Shishiba, realizing that Carolina Reaper's blowtorch generates very high temperatures, Amane ran around causing Carolina to spray "sparks" around where they were fighting, causing the surrounding temperature to rise, exceeding the Curie Point, completely nullifying Kumanomi's magnetism, giving Shishiba the opportunity to defeat the two assassins.

    ADVERTISEMENT Equipment

    Four-Section Staff: Amane wields a white four-section staff with a small thin blade on one end, inspired by his father's weapon. He is highly precise with his staff, being able to grab a key-ring off Sakamoto.

Due to this, she is a bit more carefree with her decisions even when in danger. She is aware that she is reckless at times but makes up for it with her confidence and hope especially when it comes to her husband. Her principles are strict and holds them as a priority of the Sakamoto Family Rules. History

    Aoi met Taro Sakamoto at a convenience store. He instantly fell in love with her and they soon started dating. While Sakamoto was still working as a member of Order, Aoi grew fed up with his nonchalant behavior in his life as an assassin and showed him what it was like to lose someone precious to him as she threw herself off a balcony. Sakamoto saved her but Aoi taught him a harsh lesson on valuing on the lives of others. She made him promise never to take another person's life and to devote his own life in helping others to make up for all the people he's killed.

    Sakamoto gets married Sakamoto retiring from the assassination world. Sakamoto became so smitten with Aoi that he decided to leave behind the world of assassination and retire from the Order so that he could be with her. After dating for a while, Sakamoto and Aoi would get married and open up their own little convenience store in a small neighborhood on the outskirts of Tokyo, and eventually had their daughter named Hana.

    Apart is a perfectionist to the point of obsession. After perfectly dismembering someone into equal pieces to "look inside them", he realizes that one of the manga on the wall is missing, thus breaking the perfect row, which causes him to go outside to purchase the manga to fulfill his perfectionism, even commenting that he "may be kind of a perfectionist". This is seen again when interrupts a fight in order to rearrange some figures that had fallen over. He is also cold-hearted, barely caring about dismembering a dog when he was a child and feeling nothing when he dismembers people in his later years. He hates people who are unorganized, calling them crude and that they rub him the wrong way, saying how they annoy him without even caring.

    Apart has an urge to 'connect' with people, which are people he sees as strong, as he says he's enjoying his fight with Sakamoto and feels like he can connect to him. As he's walking around Tokyo Tower, he says that he wants to connect with more people, which stems from his childhood loneliness and parental abandonment. He sees his dismemberment of people as his way as reaffirming that connection, as a way to cope with his increasing loneliness. His killing makes him wonder why life is so painful, since no one likes him and that he's human like everyone else, asking Sakamoto why he rejects him to 'connect' with him.

    Since he has never interacted with anyone in a friendly way, when he sits at the table with Sakamoto and company, and they talk to him like a regular person, he comments on how weird they are, with him blushing in the process, showing that he's shy. Synopsis

    Past

    Apart was completely excluded by other children and his mother never talks to him, although his father was the only person who actually cared about him, who taught him that it's what's on the inside that matters. One day, Apart's father gave him a doll, but a boy called him a weirdo, causing him to go home and take his anger out on that doll, imagining it as the boy who called him a weirdo, where he laughs afterwards. Over time, he continues ripping the doll up with scissors, then a box cutter, then needles to stick in its face as he's further excluded by the other children and his mother's ignorance.

    One day, his father comes home and sees Apart sitting on the floor with the corpse of a dog he dismembered with a box cutter. The next day, his father brings him to a doctor to see what's wrong with him. The doctor says that he's perfectly healthy, with his father, in his frustration, saying how his son is perfectly normal. His father lifts the doctor up by the collar, asking him if he's calling his son a monster. Apart goes to his father, but his father pushes him away, as Apart take a pair of scissors and kill his father saying that there's nothing wrong with him and that both of their heads are the same, meaning that they're all the same on the inside, which made him realize that he was connected to everyone "after all". It was interpreted to us the readers that apart had some sort of phycological barrier which made him act so defensively. Plot

    Apart ended up killing 206 people before being arrested by the Southeast Asian police and sentenced to death for murder, mutilation and kidnapping.

    Alongside Minimalist, Saw and Dump, he escaped from the death row of a maximum-security prison in Southeast Asia with the help of Slur.

    Based on what Atari has shown so far, she appears to be extremely picky about her food, and her personality and choices often revolve around her fortune-telling abilities. For example, she refused to play video games or eat homemade food because her predictions made her certain of the outcomes. She even confidently stated that she would escape the prison soon because her "Prince in Shining Armour" was on his way.

    Atari has shown little regard for others, once putting out her cigarette on a guard's palm and excusing her actions by claiming she had seen bad luck in the lines of his hand. She generally maintains a nonchalant attitude, showing little emotion even in situations involving death or when making predictions. When her predictions come true, she simply points out that she was right, without expressing any particular concern.[2] History

    For a period of time, Atari was the JAA's fortune teller. She was always accurate, and a majority of the JAA's decisions went through her. Her presence was kept a secret to avoid the JAA seeming dependent on her, so only a select few knew of her existence.[3]

    Despite her perfect accuracy rating, Atari's predictions considering Slur's activities began to fail. This induced suspicion that Atari was colluding with Slur, resulting in her confinement within the third floor—the deepest level—of the JAA's jail.[1][4] Skills & Abilities

(1) Boiled (ボイル, Boiru?) is an assassin of the agency Dondenkai and one of the primary antagonists of the Amusement Park Arc, alongside his partner, Obiguro. He is a Japan Clear Creation (JCC) graduate.

    He later reappears as a supporting character in the JAA Jail Arc.

    Appearance

    Boiled is a tall man of average build with short black hair (brown in the manga) a beard and a scar on his left cheek. He is often seen wearing a pink beanie covering its hair, a pair of golden-yellow sunglasses that cover his brown eyes as well as a seafoam green short-sleeved Hawaiian shirt with dark green hand grenade patterns on it, olive green pants with steel beads around the pockets that holds its SBBs, as well white all-star shoes with black stripes.

    At the age of 15, Boiled wore a red shirt under a black leather jacket and pants, as well a short goateé and hair styled in a afro. Personality

    Boiled is a man obsessed with being "hard-boiled" which, in his mind, is the highest level a person can possibly reach and the state of being extremely tough personality-wise. This status of being "hard-boiled" can apply to any characteristic, as he also recognized Sakamoto's angry wife, Aoi Sakamoto, as being "hard-boiled".

    Because of his desire to be hard-boiled, Boiled tries to remain cool and collected at all times, but can still get emotional at times, such as when he shouts at Obiguro when she behaves in a way he doesn't approve.

    He's also very honorable as he refuses to harm anyone or anything beside his target. This even includes ants, which he stops Obiguro from nearly stepping on. Boiled held a grudge against Sakamoto stemming from his academy days based on a misunderstanding and shed tears when Sakamoto didn't remember him. After their fight, Boiled finally acknowledged the veteran assassin as "hard-boiled", promising never to go after him again and defending Sakamoto when Aoi was admonishing them. History

[2] Boiled also met Nagumo as the two became friends through Sakamoto and his future partner, Obiguro. However, Sakamoto's indifference towards him, as well as being more popular with girls and initial inability to recognize him put a strain in their (mostly one-sided) friendship. Since then, Boiled vowed to make Sakamoto remember him. Skills & Abilities

    Overall Skill: Boiled is quite the strong assassin, being able to overwhelm Sakamoto during the start of their fight. He, alongside Obiguro, are known for killing 200 people during the Ronriko Incident and were referred to as the "Powerhouse Duo of the Dondenkai". However, he isn't anywhere near the level of those in the Order when it comes to strength, as noted by Nagumo.

    Appearance

    Byodo is an old, wrinkled man of average height with a scraggly beard and hair. So far, he has only been seen wearing janitor coveralls, alongside a cap and a lanyard with a card. Personality

    Byodo is a laidback individual, displaying little surprise when Taro Sakamoto reappears at the JCC or when faced with the chaos the veteran assassin causes. He enjoys teasing his grandson, Amane, but becomes mildly annoyed when he skips classes, often giving him a light tap on the head. Although Byodo disapproved of Amane’s involvement with Slur’s group, he continued to offer his support and invites him to visit or talk when needed.

    In contrast to Amane, Byodo shows little interest in seeking revenge against his son-in-law Yotsumura for killing his daughter, Amane’s mother, instead maintaining a more composed and detached approach. History

    Byodo has been working at the JCC since Sakamoto and Nagumo were students. He also raised a then 7-year old Amane in the JCC. By the time of the JCC Infiltration Arc, he still works there.

    Byodo is later seen outside with Amane. The two talks reminisce about the past and Amane's future. Abilities

    Despite his age, Byodo still possesses competent physical abilities. Additionally, his memory is vastly superhuman, allowing him to serve as the JCC's student database.

His memory is so powerful he serves as the student database for the JCC, a task otherwise reserved for computers. He has a comprehensive bank of information on 38,764 students, which is presumably every student that ever attended the JCC.

    Byodo also remembers the dates of all 783 times he hit his grandson on the head.

However, he sometimes omits the shirt.

    A color scheme of Club Jam as seen in the colored page of Chapter 87. A color scheme of Club Jam as seen in the colored page of Chapter 87. Personality

    Club Jam is extremely masochistic, suggesting that Kanaguri brutally tortured him, holding his breath to unconsciousness and hypnotizing people just to step on and whip him. Club Jam is utterly fearless and playful in combat, commenting about how fun it was to fight Natsuki Seba even when he was hanging by one hand over an incinerator and at the mercy of the latter.[2]

    He has a close relationship with Carolina Reaper despite the latter's crude and hostile attitude, Club Jam is exceptionally obedient to his commands. He refers to him as a brother, though whether this relationship is genetic or not is unknown.

    Outside of his masochistic tendencies, Club Jam is playful. He has some foresight and intelligence, as he ensured on his own that Amane would not betray the group by using hypnosis, and instantly figuring out the database wasn't on an SD card that Natsuki tried to trick him with. Similarly, he is ruthless, threatening to kill Natsuki and breaking two of his fingers if he found out this JCC student was tricking him.[3] Skills & Abilities

    Overall Skill Level: As a subordinate of Slur and part of the group working to attack the JCC, Club Jam is a powerful fighter. His hypnosis allows him to cause mayhem and enslave targets to his command.

    Enhanced Speed: Club Jam was able to snatch an SD card from Natsuki and break two of his fingers without the latter noticing.[4] He was also able to blitz Natsuki on another occasion, leaving him at the masochist's mercy.[5]

    Hypnosis: Club Jam is a master of hypnosis. By reciting the names of pastries and confectionaries in reverse, Club Jam was able to hypnotize a large portion of the JCC's students to find and destroy the database. To undo the hypnosis, Club Jam claps his hands. Club Jam has also hypnotized individual targets with just a clap. His hypnosis is part of his brainwashing techniques and are powerful enough to stop someone from feeling pain.[6] Club Jam seems to be able to hypnotize himself, though this appears to cause physical strain. Club Jam's hypnosis can cause visual hallucinations.[7]

    Hypnotized targets do not have control of their bodies and automatically follow Club Jam's instructions, but are conscious of their actions. Hypnosis does not work on sufficiently strong individuals such as Taro Sakamoto. A strong impact, such as a slap, can break the hypnosis. Furthermore, Club Jam can be caught off-guard if his potential victim pretends to be hypnotized, something Natsuki exploited to help him escape Club Jam and counterattack with his allies. Equipment

    Blade and Chain: Club Jam uses a small, crescent-shaped blade on a chain, which is connected to a ring Club Jam wears on his middle finger. Despite its small size, it is strong enough to hold Club Jam's weight, who can also use it for mobility.[5]

    Satoda is a polite and mostly calm teacher who enjoys jesting opponents and speaks casually, yet matter-of-factly. She bluntly tells Shin Asakura and Akira Akao how difficult it is to find the database and how dangerous it is to get involved with Slur. However, she is reasonable and gives Shin an Assassin Slip to allow him to target her, promising to reveal information on the database if he can land one hit. At the same time, she is stern, admonishing Shin for using a dangerous prototype and threatening to break Sakamoto and Nagumo's arms for fighting in the past.

    Being a teacher, Satoda was more than willing to give Shin, Natsuki Seba and Akira individualized feedback after their fight, praising their teamwork and shedding happy tears over their dedication and growth.

    Satoda is fond of Taro Sakamoto, Rion Akao and Nagumo, jokingly referring to them as the "three fools" when reminiscing about the past. She cares for her students and despite teaching them to become killers, doesn't want them to die. Satoda has also shown to mantain her calm and polite personality even when facing death or fighting to defend her students as demonstrated during her fight against Kanaguri. Relationships

    Taro Sakamoto

    Satoda was one of Taro's teachers during his time at the JCC. She taught him and other assassins, such as Rion Akao and Yoichi Nagumo, the basics of being an assassin, including how to kill properly, until he was expelled from the school along with his friends. Sakamoto met Satoda again during the JCC Infiltration Arc after her fight against Kanaguri, who had fatally injured her. Even in death, Satoda showed deep care for her students, moving her own body after dying to protect Sakamoto and the others.

    Byodo

    Both Satoda and Byodo attended the JCC as students and were classmates. They were the only two in their class who survived as assassins, and Byodo was the first to comment on Satoda's choice to refuse the request to join the order.

    Shin Asakura

    Shin and Satoda met each other during the JCC Infiltration Arc after Shin joined the JCC and started looking for the database, which Satoda later revealed to be her old classmate, Byodo. After listening to Shin's desire to find the database, she challenged him to try to hit her at least once within 24 hours. If Shin managed to succeed, Satoda would give him a hint about the database.

    History

    Satoda was classmates with Byodo, implying she was a student at the JCC.

    During her times at the JJC as an assassin, Satoda was considered a full-fledged assassin and being a master of Aikido who Natsuki Seba described as almost impossible to attack and as someone who have come back unharmed from every mission she was assigned to. At some point in time during her years at the JJC, Satoda was invited to join the Order, but declined to become a teacher at the JCC and taught Taro Sakamoto, Rion Akao and Nagumo. Skills & Abilities

    Overall Skill Level: Even as a retired assassin, Satoda retains the skills she had in her youth and is considered a master of Aikido. Seba also stated that it is almost impossible to attack her without having your attack reflected back. She easily manhandled Shin and Akira. Only a combined effort from Akira, Natsuki and Shin with the former's powerful prototype weapon could land a non-damaging hit on the teacher. Natsuki stated a young Satoda came back unscathed from every single mission and admonished Shin for charging at her, considering a head-on attack to be impossible. Her selection to become an Order member is further testament to her might. When Akira Akao used her "path" ability, she only saw either a pathless, infinitely deep cliff or a path leading to her own death. Satoda is able to fight evenly with Kanaguri, an active member of the Order.

    Enhanced Speed and Reflexes: Satoda was able to counter, block, or dodge every single attack thrown at her by Shin, Akira, and Natsuki, even during their combined effort. She can casually dodge or block blows without looking and managed to fight Shin, Seba, and Akira simultaneously without getting hit or touched even once. Satoda has demonstrated extreme speed, catching Kanaguri off guard by appearing in front of him, aiming a knife at his throat, and then repeatedly appearing in front of him, cutting him with her knife.

    Enhanced Strength: In the past, Satoda restrained both Sakamoto and Nagumo, who were then JCC students, with one hand. On many occasions, Satoda was able to throw Shin and Akira massive distances, even sending the latter through a wall. She was able to grab, subdue, and cause Shin pain using a pair of chopsticks, and she blocked an overhead strike from Akira using one finger. During a fight in the JCC gymnasium, she threw the students across the entire space into distant walls. Even when weakened, the veteran assassin was able to hurl a knife through Kanaguri's camera into his eye. Satoda has demonstrated multiple times her ability to throw Kanaguri through walls and windows with ease and destroy the floor by crashing him through the roof with her knife.

    Enhanced Durability: Satoda blocked a punch from Shin, who was using a prototype gauntlet strong enough to punch craters in walls, without harm. During her fight with Kanaguri, she took a near-fatal slice to the neck and still managed to get up. Satoda also continued fighting after having her eye sliced off, still smiling and speaking in her calm manner.

    Enhanced Perception: Satoda was able to deduce that Akira Akao was able to see paths and recognize her similiarities with Rion Akao. She also managed to detect the presence of Natsuki Seba with ease even though he had his invisibility suit on, which resulted to be useless against Satoda.

    Aikido Mastery: Satoda is known for her mastery of Aikido, which she uses to redirect or nullify attacks with minimal effort. Although Aikido is not a martial art suited for killing, Satoda's skills have allowed her to turn it into an effective tool for killing.

He wore a tan shirt under a dark brown suit (in the digital colored manga, the shirt is black and the suit is dark grey, while in the manga, the shirt is light blue and the suit is purple.), a metallic piece attached in the jaw, several earrings, as well two bike chains over his neck, numerous piercings on both his ears, a hoop piercing next to his left eyelid and golden yellow knuckledusters accompanied by black rings over his fingers.

    During his battle with Kumanomi, she ripped his right ear off and was later blinded in both of eyes.

    Hyo, initially, came off as a very arrogant man who was quick to anger, frequently threatening to kill Nagumo whenever the latter annoyed him. However, he was an incredibly loyal member of the both the Order and the JAA as a whole, strictly following the rules and regulations set down, such as when he initially refused to give Sakamoto and his companions information about the JAA regarding Slur's activities.

    In his youth, Hyo was considered by Yotsumura to be an assassin with the least amount of talent. Of course, this didn't stop Hyo and instead it gave him the desire to work even harder until he was recognized as one of the strongest, showing an extreme sense of dedication.

    Because of his less than stellar beginnings, he was hard on himself, as his status as an Order member made him want to stay at the top with the other members, who he called "genius monsters".

    By his own admission, Hyo seemed to think he could never become a "true assassin", as he didn't have some of the other Order member's qualities and that he usually thought about things he shouldn't need to, like worrying about saving people; however, this self-reflection led him to appreciate other people's hard work and dedication, as seen when he saw his past self in Heisuke Mashimo.

    Despite his loyalty to the Order, Hyo was not an unreasonable sort of man having given Taro Sakamoto the information he wanted upon realizing it was to protect his family.

    Hyo also had a softer side and was a polite man, having yelled at Osaragi to drive carefully as an older passenger was in the car and apologized to a doctor for a disturbance after causing a noisy and destructive fight in a hospital. He also helped Heisuke when his bag was taken by accident and even saved him from Kumanomi's attacks as well as purposely got in the way of Kumanomi's attacks so the surrounding civilians wouldn't get injured; this softer side of his made Kumanomi remark how he was incompatible with being an assassin, something he seemed to agree with, having chosen to save Heisuke even in his final moments. Sakamoto described him as a kind-hearted man. Relationships

    Nagumo

    Having been colleagues for years, Hyo found Nagumo to be untrustworthy often showing open hostility towards him, with Nagumo annoying him with his usual antics. However, after learning about his death, Nagumo looked visibly angry and fired a round of bullets into the sky in honor of Hyo, stating that the ones who die faster in the world are not the untalented people but those who are kind.

    Heisuke Mashimo

    When Heisuke's luggage had gone missing at the airport, Hyo offered to help him find it. Even though they just met, Heisuke already considered him a friend. Hyo said that he liked Heisuke when the young man impressed him with his sniping ability. Heisuke was very depressed and felt immensely guilty when Hyo died while protecting him from Kumanomi.

    Skills & Abilities

    Overall Skill Level: As a member of the Order, Hyo was one of the strongest assassins in the JAA. Unlike other members of the Order, Hyo favored unarmed combat.

    Enhanced Speed: Hyo was incredibly fast, being able to catch Sakamoto off guard. He also detected Shin behind him and retaliated with a kick. He was fast enough to notice debris being thrown at civilians in his fight against Kumanomi, but purposely got in the way to protect bystanders.

    Immense Strength: Hyo was able to punch Sakamoto clean through a wall and around with an MRI machine (which can weigh around 4.5 to 7 tons) attached to him. In his fight against Kumanomi, Hyo could punch through a sheet of steel, with the former remarking that his blows were like a jackhammer. Despite Kumanomi's electromagnetic abilities, Hyo eventually overwhelmed her with pure strength alone, rendering her ranged attacks pointless as he'd simply destroyed the metal objects being thrown his way and pulverized a wooden pier with one punch. Even when dying, his grip was strong enough that Kumanomi had to self-amputate her arm to escape from drowning.

    Immense Durability: Hyo took numerous impacts from an MRI machine when it was activated, turning nearby metal objects into fast projectiles, but was unharmed. He also took a direct punch from Kumanomi, who herself has enhanced physical strength. He could handle being thrown heavy, metal objects, such as steel beams, cars, with little to no visible damage. When Kumanomi ripped his right ear off using her electromagnetic powers, Hyo didn't even flinch and continued to fight the assassin. Only after Kumanomi fashioned a coil gun and shot Hyo multiple times with nails did he take significant damage (including neurotrauma), which did not slow him down anyways. In the same fight, Hyo continued fighting with catastrophic damage, overpowering Kumanomi (albeit momentarily) after being fatally injured by multiple boat propellers. Equipment

    Brass Knuckles: Hyo's signature and preferred weapons were a pair of brass knuckles on either hand with a decorative vine design sketched on them.

    Jaw Piece: Though likely not intended for combat purposes, Hyo had a nonmagnetic jaw piece attached directly to his chin. It was durable enough that Heisuke ricocheted a rifle shot off it.

    ADVERTISEMENT Appearance

    1/2

    Jo is a tall and slim man with short black ear-length hair and sunken black eyes. He wears a white shirt and a striped tie under a trench coat, as well black pants and shoes.

    ADVERTISEMENT Personality

    Jo appears to be a fickle individual that displays a friendly demeanor that can quickly change to a more aggressive one if things didn´t go in his way. For instance, Jo, curious about commotion, casually approached Boiled with a question, only to shoot him in the thigh for answering too slowly.[1] Indicating he possibly might had bipolar disorder.

    As the floor's head guard, Jo shows obsessiveness in making floor B1 a "nice home," going as far as to offer monthly dog therapy. When Shin attacked him in hopes of descending to the floor below, Jo perceived this as Shin not appreciating the floor and acted violently, using his handcuff-chain weapon to assault Shin.[2] Plot

    JAA Jail Arc

    On floor B1 of the JAA jail, a fight between Shin and Boiled was prevented as a group of armed workers surrounded them. Then, Jo arrived. Boiled, frustrated by his untimely appearance, quietly informed Shin about who Jo was, telling him to stay quiet to avoid death. Jo approached Boiled and questioned him about who B1's current state was owed to, to which Boiled complied by attributing it to him. However, Jo shot him in the thigh for responding too slowly. He reminded Boiled that those who mess with him get sent to the floor below, catching Shin's attention, and asserted that B1 is meant to be peaceful, anticipating agreement from the prisoners. Instead, the prisoners stay silent and don't respond, causing Jo to snap and yell for them to answer before being kneed in the face by Shin.

    Recovering with no trouble, Jo identified Shin, complemented his name, and inquired Shin about why he wants to move below. Jo then restrained Shin's neck with a handcuff and, using the chain attached to that handcuff, shoved Shin into the floor, accusing him of not appreciating the floor. Shin, realizing Jo's strength, was beaten and dragged around by Jo's handcuff-chain combination until he was spun around with ease and chucked through a wall. Despite what he reminded Boiled, Jo chose to keep Shin on B1 due to not seeing him as a threat. To Jo, nothing was out of the ordinary.

    As a punishment for acting out, Jo orders Shin, Heisuke, and Boiled to haul freight inside of a walk-in freezer. After Heisuke begins to feel the effects of the temperature, Shin argues with Jo, but is kicked into a wall of freight as a result. Multiple sets of handcuffs attach to his arm as well. A chain reaction set off by Shin using his ability causes a box to fall on his back. Once he gets up he fights Shin using both physical attacks and multiple sets of handcuff-chains. With one of these chains, he launches Shin into the air and crashes him into walls of freight. After Shin uses his ability to cut power to the walk-in freezer, it is shown that Jo has been incapacitated. He mentions that he's cold, and begs Shin to not kill him.

    ADVERTISEMENT Skills & Abilities

    Overall Skill Level: As the head guard of JAA prison B1, Jo is a powerful assassin. He is a former member of the JAA Special Detachment Unit. He was once at the top of the "This Assassin is Amazing" ranking and was also said to be the man closest to the Order.[3]

    Expert Combatant: Jo has displayed high combat prowess, able to easily dominate Shin during their short confrontation.[4]

    Enhanced Strength: During his confrontation with Shin, Jo proved himself to be quite powerful. He shattered the floor by driving Shin into it, easily swung him around with a chain, and hurled him through a wall, bursting it open and leaving a massive hole.[4]

    Enhanced Durability: Jo remained completely unfazed after taking a knee to the face.[5]

    Enhanced Speed: Jo can move so fast that he was able to put his chain handcuff around Shin's neck and slam him into the ground before even knew what happened.[6]

    Kaji is an extremely shy teenager who frequently overthinks any actions he's about to take. As such, he remains silent most of the time. Despite this, Kaji is a determined and courageous individual who is able to effectively communicate and plan with companions. History

    Kaji, along with Toramaru and Shinaya arrived as a special recommendation in the third part of the exam. During the third test he was paired with Mafuyu and Shin. He fought alongside Shin against Gaku/Shinaya, getting heavily injured in the process. At the end, he was accepted into the JCC. Relationships

    Shin Asakura: In the third test he was placed in the same team as Shin and eventually collaborated with the clairvoyant to fight a Gaku-controlled Shinaya.

    ADVERTISEMENT Abilities

    As part of the special recommendations group, Kaji is one of the strongest JCC applicants. Despite his unsociability, he is an extremely capable fighter and can work with others, such as during his and Shin's fight against Shinaya. His strength lies in his phenomenal hearing.

    Superhuman Hearing: Kaji has vastly superhuman hearing. From a distance, he was able to hear Shinaya's heartbeat and the faint sound of the equipment used by Gaku to control Shinaya and even managed to sense that Shinaya was fast asleep. Furthermore, he was able to hear the Gaku's inputs through the equipment, figuring out there was a 0.5 second delay between Gaku's inputs and Shinaya's movements. Using the sound of distant, otherwise imperceptible echoes, Kaji was also able to deduce Gaku's location and range of motion.

    Kaji can also mimic an enemy's movements (getting someone's sounds down) through hearing alone, though this takes time and concentration.

    Enhanced Speed: Kaji was able to grab Toramaru and Mafuyu and retreat from Shinaya successfully. He was also able to dodge Shinaya's extremely fast attacks, and once he got Shinaya's sounds down was able to outspeed the applicant and land a strike.

    Enhanced Strength: Kaji is strong enough to grab two people and dash away with no effort. His strikes were also able to send Shinaya flying backwards.

    Enhanced Durability: Kaji was able to survive his lower right abdomen getting obliterated by a Gaku controlled Shinaya's punch who's strength was enough to take out several JCC examiners. He later seemingly made a full recovery by the events of the Assassin Exhibition

    KAMIHATE'S CREDO.[2] Kamihate (上カミ終ハテ, Kamihate?) was a member of the Order, a group consisting of the strongest assassins in the JAA.[3][4] He is recognized as the greatest sniper in JAA history.[5]

    ADVERTISEMENT Appearance

    Kamihate's appearance is mostly unknown, but he appears to be a man of relatively average build that wears a pair of baggy black pants. When outside for his work, Kamihate wears a long yellow coat with navy-blue and purple stains on the outside and red on the inside, with its hood keeping his face hidden, his rifle usually emerging from the middle instead.[6][7][8] Gallery

    Kamihate color scheme as seen on the cover of Volume 16. Kamihate color scheme as seen on the cover of Volume 16. Personality

    Kamihate is extremely unsociable and prefers not to interact with associates face-to-face, making him a classic hikikomori (shut-in) whose face not even the other Order members have seen;[3][9][10] a year ago, he claimed that his last time outside had been three years prior.[11] When forced to collaborate, Kamihate goes so far as to have a fellow Order member carry a hiragana chart on a paper so that, if the sniper wishes to say something, he can simply shoot at the corresponding characters from afar to formulate messages.[12] This, alongside Kamihate's ability to read the lips of whomever he has in scope, lets him know what his colleagues and/or targets are saying and get across messages to them without having to be anywhere near.[13] When Kamihate does venture outside (whether forced to by his assassin's work or for any other reason), he wears a body-covering cloak to mask his identity, becoming extremely upset if his face is exposed.[14]

    Kamihate Weather Girl Kamihate thrown off by seeing a picture of a weather girl he likes. One of Kamihate's idiosyncrasies is that he always carries his sniper rifle with him in almost any situation, even at home or off the job.[15][16] Not only does he never set his gun aside, Kamihate frequently emotes through it as a running gag of sorts (such as trembling with the barrel when flustered or agitated), and his speech/thought bubbles and realization marks appear at its muzzle as if it were his head; this makes it seem as though Kamihate's rifle is an extension of his body, substituting his hidden face.[17][18][19][20] Yet another quirk of the sniper is his apparent obsession with girls, first hinted at when he went out of his way to tell Osaragi that she is cute,[12] and later confirmed by Sakamoto. The latter managed to fluster Kamihate and mess up his aim by holding up a picture of a morning news' weather girl. Kamihate claimed that it was not all girls whom he was crazy about but specifically weather girls, reasoning that, as weather means life or death for a sniper, it was only natural for him to consider weather girls goddesses.[9][21]

    Much like his fellow Order members, Kamihate has the cold, ruthless streak of a professional killer, allowing him to take out targets one after another without reservations and in a calculated manner.[22] Still, Kamihate is agitated easily, such as by sudden movements from a target; when Heisuke Mashimo was being apprehended by the Order, a brief escape attempt on the latter's part had Kamihate immediately fire a would-be headshot at the captive.[3] When nearly struck by a countershot from Heisuke while he was targeting Sakamoto's gang, Kamihate was taken aback that he would be attacked by someone whom he had done nothing to, calling the outside world scary.[23]

    It is later revealed that Kamihate's reclusiveness, apart from his apparent paranoia about the outside world,[23] stems from his strong belief that perfect strength resides within solitude — that forming connections with, trusting, and depending on others makes an assassin weak. It was proving this point (apart from his hurt pride) that made Kamihate so heavily care about preserving his image and world record according to Sakamoto, and it leads Kamihate to denigrate those (like Heisuke) whom he perceives to be too reliant on others.[10]

    Kamihate Record Kamihate admires his record. Taking great pride in his sniper prowess, Kamihate becomes aggrieved if something or someone hurts that pride or threatens his cultivated image as the perfect, solitary sniper. Nine years ago, Kamihate was eager to complete the last hit needed for his Guinness World Record and to become the world's best sniper, showing that he attaches great importance to titles and accolades.[24] When Kamihate broke a three-year shut-in streak to travel to another country and see an artifact indirectly commemorating the kill that had given him his record, he was distraught upon discovering that said kill had been Sakamoto's all along, having been misattributed to Kamihate. Thus, the sniper resolved to prevent Sakamoto from ever finding out about his record's "falsity" (by preventing the retired assassin from seeing the aforesaid artifact at the coming Assassin Exhibition of the Century), a resolve that Kamihate would hang onto for a year due to believing that both his record and "world's best sniper" title were on the line.[25]

    Due to his pride, bordering on arrogance, Kamihate is offended when one-upped in any way during sniper engagements, indicated by him trembling out of frustration. During his shoot-out with Heisuke, Kamihate grew increasingly irritated at his foe's boldness and was embarrassed by Heisuke predicting a shot from him. When Heisuke made a bullet of his ricochet in an effort to hit Kamihate, the latter called Heisuke annoying for what he deemed a show-off move, yet felt compelled to respond by making his own bullet alter its course just to prove himself capable of the same feat, while declaring that whoever hurt his pride had to pay.[26] Indeed, Kamihate's annoyance only continued to grow the more Heisuke countered him during their confrontation, such as when Kamihate used the trajectory of Kamihate's shot to ascertain his location, then had his own bullet take the exact same course to land a hit, Kamihate's response being to call Heisuke a loser.[27][28] Out of embarrassment, Kamihate will likewise downplay unsuccessful snipe attempts on his part, explaining them away as practice shots[29] or deliberate misses,[30] or blaming a broken scope.[31] Somewhat hypocritical too, Kamihate made note that a sharpshooter ought to perform as quick-and-efficient-as-possible kills rather than use rebounding "trick shots" like Heisuke was,[32] despite Kamihate's own reliance on extravagant shots to prove his superiority over Heisuke. Once having the latter at gunpoint, Kamihate again insulted the less experienced sniper, claiming that Heisuke's curved bullet had surprised him only a little before lecturing him about his lack of vigilance of his surroundings.[33]

    Kamihate Heisuke Friendship Kamihate imagines a friendship with Heisuke. However, when Heisuke saw his face, Kamihate had an emotional about-face and gave up finishing their fight (despite having had Heisuke on the ropes), falling to his knees and exclaiming in overdramatic fashion that it was all over. Kamihate reasoned that nobody should ever see the ultimate sniper's face and that, now that his was revealed despite him having dedicated his whole life to sniping, which demands absolute solitude, he should end it all. When Kamihate acting like wanting to shoot himself failed to provoke a reaction in Heisuke, Kamihate demanded explicitly that the latter apologize for hurting his pride and to cheer him up. When Heisuke expressed his gratitude for what he misapprehended as Kamihate's goal with their fight — to help Heisuke recover his lost sniping skills — Kamihate played along to save face, affirming that indeed he had known Heisuke's problem and been trying to help. Subsequently, while initially rebuffing Heisuke's offer to become friends, thinking that as an Order member he was above that, Kamihate envisioned what having friends would be like. Ruminating over how he had always prided himself on fighting alone, Kamihate acknowledged the possibility that finally making friends may allow him to reach still greater heights as a sniper. Once Sakamoto appeared, revealing that he knew of Kamihate's concerns about his record and that he cared nothing for it, Kamihate took offense, though internally admitted feeling relieved about no longer being alone and that he could finally talk even to Sakamoto. Upon suggesting that Heisuke leave with him, Kamihate was annoyed at being rejected, yet still left Sakamoto and co. with the tickets for the exhibit that they had been after.[20] Relationships

    Taro Sakamoto

    Kamihate and Sakamoto knew each other from the time that Sakamoto was still an assassin and a member of the Order, and both were dispatched on missions together. Sakamoto is aware of Kamihate's sniper prowess, having seen it firsthand, and can thus recognize Kamihate from his shots and bullets, claiming that all he knew about Kamihate is him being a girl-crazy shut-in; Kamihate took offense to this statement, claiming that it is only weather ladies whom he obsesses over, as is natural for a sniper reliant on the weather, and that he had tried telling Sakamoto as much ages ago, but he never listens.[22]

    Kamihate seems to hold respect for Sakamoto and mentioned that being a loner, not a team player, was something that he had assumed the two of them had in common.[34]

    It is later revealed that, nine years ago when Kamihate was about to achieve the final kill needed to land himself a Guinness World Record and become the best sniper, a rookie Sakamoto appeared at the scene of his target, to go for the same kill. Though Kamihate initially believed that he had been faster in making the kill shot, which had earned him his title and record, he found out eight years later at France's Assassin Exhibition of the Century (by examining the blood-splattered painting drawn by his target nine years ago during the hit) that Sakamoto had actually been faster, his bullet having done the kill. On that day, Kamihate vowed never to let Sakamoto find out about this lest his record and title might be taken from him (or so he thought).[35] Hence, years later in the present day, Kamihate vehemently tried to keep Sakamoto from attending said Assassin Exhibition, now held in Japan, even spending his savings to try to outbid Sakamoto in an online ticket sale and later targeting him and his group with repeated snipe attempts.[36]

    Following Kamihate's duel against Heisuke, the Order member came to realize that, perhaps, making friends would not be so bad after all, even feeling relieved upon seeing Sakamoto face-to-face and being able to talk to him. When Sakamoto clarified that he had learned about Kamihate's issue and did not care for his record, hence Kamihate had nothing to worry about, the sniper took offense to this, even suggesting that Heisuke leave with him instead of staying with Sakamoto. Ultimately however, the sniper left Sakamoto and co. with the tickets to the exhibition that they had been after.[37]

    Heisuke Mashimo

    Kamihate's first indirect encounter with Heisuke Mashimo was when, from a distance, he watched as his fellow Order members captured Heisuke for interrogation; when Heisuke made an escape attempt, Kamihate tried to shoot him.[3] Later on when Kamihate was going after Sakamoto, Heisuke interfered by firing a counter shot at Kamihate, leaving the latter confused as to why someone uninvolved was attacking him.[23]

    Heisuke, in turn, decided on engaging Kamihate one-on-one as a way of reclaiming his recently lost confidence as a sniper. He entered a duel with Kamihate by shooting one of the latter's bullets out of the air as a declaration of war, though he found himself quickly under pressure from Kamihate's tremendous sniping ability. The Order member, in turn, became flustered and irritated by Heisuke's increasingly bold maneuvers, first calling him a "loser" upon seeing his invitation to battle, while later seeming to grow embarrassed when Heisuke predicted and dodged a headshot before suggesting that he had seen right through Kamihate, with the latter brushing off his miss as just a practice shot. When Heisuke thereafter fired a ricochet bullet at Kamihate, the latter grew even more annoyed, calling Heisuke a show-off and going out of his way to fire a ricocheting bullet of his own, just to prove himself capable of the same feat.[26]

    As their duel went on, Heisuke felt that he was starting to feel Kamihate's emotions through his bullets — of someone who has invested everything in sniping. Kamihate, on the other hand, expressed his belief that Heisuke, as someone who too much cared for and relied on others, could never reach his level as a sniper, increasingly aiming to kill him to prove his point. When Heisuke managed to use the trajectory of one of Kamihate's bullets to fire a counter shot along the exact same course, successfully hitting Kamihate,[38] the latter grew more frustrated, repeatedly insulting the younger sniper. He then went more mobile, jumping over rooftops to close in on Heisuke before ultimately having him at gunpoint after a final bullet exchange. Once Heisuke caught Kamihate off-guard with a surprise closeup shot, the former caught a glimpse of Kamihate's face, causing the latter to suffer a breakdown due to his perfect streak of letting no one see his face — as the ultimate, solitary sniper — was ruined.[39]

    For an unknown reason, Heisuke seemed surprised at seeing Kamihate's face.[40][41]

    First pretending to shoot himself to get a consolatory reaction out of Heisuke, then demanding outright that Heisuke make up for what he had done, latter misunderstood and thanked Kamihate instead, believing that the Order member had purposefully not gone all out to train Heisuke and help him recover his lost confidence in sniping. Kamihate played along to save face, falsely confirming what Heisuke was assuming. He then rejected Heisuke's offer to become friends, before changing his mind after mulling over what making a friend would be like, and how having a friend could help him reach even greater heights as a sniper. Seemingly accepting the offer of friendship, Kamihate even suggested that Heisuke leave Sakamoto do go with him, before being upset when the latter declined.[20]

    Osaragi

    Kamihate's obsession with women seemingly extends to fellow Order member Osaragi (despite his own claim that it only pertains to weather girls), as seen when Kamihate had Shishiba hold up a hiragana chart just to make an off-the-subject statement about finding Osaragi cute.[12] Osaragi claimed to have seen Kamihate's face, but Shishiba called that a lie.[3]

    Shishiba

    He seems to be on good terms with Shishiba, who also has never seen his face.[3] Shishiba carries a paper with a hiragana chart on his person to allow Kamihate to speak from afar by shooting the relevant characters.[12]

    Skills & Abilities

    Overall Skill Level: Kamihate is among Japan's strongest assassins as a member of the Order and the greatest sniper in the history of the JAA.[5]

    Master Sniper: Kamihate is distinguished by his unrivaled sharpshooting prowess, being accounted the "strongest sniper in JAA history" according to Sakamoto. Having earned international acclaim, Kamihate has both held the Guinness World Record for long-distance sniping and been the only Japanese person ever included among KILL TIME magazine's list of the "World's 100 Most Influential Assassins" for the past nine years.[5][42] As noted by Sakamoto, there is no escape for anyone targeted by Kamihate given his effective shooting range of eight kilometers, across which he can snipe targets with infallible aim.[5][21] His shots seem accurate to within a millimeter,[43] and he (at least for his most important shots) accounts for every atmospheric condition like weather, temperature, humidity, and crosswind.[21]

    Sakamoto has further expounded that Kamihate is an impressive shot not only for his sniping range but, also, his ability to control an entire area with a single bullet.[44] Indeed, the sniper has demonstrated incredible spatial awareness and ingenuity in using a target's environment against them, shooting extraneous objects near targets to either make or facilitate kills (by launching such objects into targets or using them to alter a bullet's trajectory mid-flight), as well as to obstruct escape attempts or otherwise impede targets.[22][45][46][47][48]

    From four kilometers away, Kamihate was seen taking out enemy snipers with perfect headshots, hitting a man through his own rifle scope, triggering a grenade (that he made fly off a target's body with an initial shot) by sniping off its pin, and even hitting a knife midair at such an angle as to make it ricochet sideways into an enemy's head behind a wall.[22] When Heisuke was being apprehended by the Order, Kamihate was aiming a perfect headshot at the captive inside a car while being too far to see from the target location,[3] and shortly thereafter (from that same distance) struck several small hiragana symbols on a paper chart in rapid succession just to make an offhand statement; the latter feat impressed even Heisuke who, in his own right, is an extremely accurate shot.[12] When targeting Sakamoto and his gang, Kamihate was again seen firing shots over a multi-kilometer distance, out of a high-rise building's window straight into Sakamoto's Store with flawless aim.[49] When Kamihate's targets made to the streets in a car, the sniper struck another vehicle's tire to make it veer to the side as an obstacle, forcing Sakamoto's group to stop, and then immediately struck Sakamoto's arm the very moment he was stationary.[45] When Heisuke (himself a sniper genius whose shooting skills exceed Sakamoto's) entered a duel with Kamihate, he quickly found himself overwhelmed by the Order member's uncanny ability to use the environment to his advantage. In particular, Kamihate shot a crane's jib on a roof near Heisuke from many blocks away, causing its rope and hook to fall, before taking another shot that made a street sign fly off at just the right angle to nail the rope into a nearby house wall, causing the hook to swing around and strike Heisuke.

    Afterwards, Kamihate destroyed a motorcycle mid-drive with one shot, then made a second bullet strike the inner rim of the bike's still-spinning wheel, in midair, so that it could ride the wheel's angular momentum like a ramp, shifting its course sideways to precisely hit Heisuke.[46] Later, Kamihate was seen hitting a civilian car's steering wheel through an open window with a graze shot, angled to make the wheel rotate and thus the car veer off into Heisuke, before landing two more direct hits on Heisuke (the first bullet of which was, at best, a mere millimeter off from hitting a bystander, without the latter noticing).[47]

    Once his scope had been destroyed by Heisuke, Kamihate's sniping accuracy did not overly diminish, and he still proved himself capable of "area-controlling" shots. He was seen hitting an overhead power line along with a water hydrant next to Heisuke with two near-simultaneous shots, causing the snapped cables to fall into the puddle that had formed below Heisuke's feet and nearly electrocute him (Heisuke only managing to avoid it thanks to Piisuke saving him, with Kamihate blaming his broken scope for the miss). Kamihate subsequently jumped in front of a high-rise office building to fire a bullet into a window, straight through a hallway and out the other side of the building without the office workers noticing anything and still struck Heisuke on the other side of said building successfully. Subsequently, the two snipers had a final bullet exchange from opposite sides of a level crossing, while two trains ran between them, both firing their bullets through the moving trains' windows over the passengers' heads without arousing attention, and with Kamihate's bullet scoring another hit.[48]

    Enhanced Speed & Agility: Kamihate is rather fast and agile. When changing locations between shots, he was shown jumping from rooftop to rooftop casually, even taking a perfectly aimed shot in midair. After then exchanging bullets with Heisuke while two trains ran between them, Kamihate not only landed a hit on his foe through the train windows, but right after moved to Heisuke's side of the train crossing to take the latter's back and have him at gunpoint without the latter noticing anything.[50]

    Enhanced Durability: Kamihate is rather tough, shrugging off a multistory fall onto pavement.[51]

    Enhanced Eyesight: Even after having his rifle scope destroyed, Kamihate remained able to take incredibly precise shots from afar, thus proving his acute eyesight.[48]

    Lip Reading: Kamihate has the ability to read the lips of those in his sight.[13] Equipment

    Kamihate Rifle Kamihate's sniper rifle, as seen 9 years ago. Sniper Rifle: Kamihate uses a high-powered, semi-automatic anti-materiel rifle (not unlike a Barrett M82) that he has had since for least 9 years.[21] Made of a silvery steel,[6] it features a long, free-floating barrel within a large, squared quad-rail handguard, along with a large scope mounted on the top rail. The gun is fed from a large box magazine under the receiver (before the hand grip) and on its muzzle has been fitted with different brakes: a smaller, round one with multiple ports and more frequently a larger, rectangular, multi-slot brake.[3][4][52] Kamihate tends to use his gun lying down, using a bipod,[53] and is able to take shots with it over a maximum distance of 8 km,[5][21] using bullets that mushroom on impact.[54] Said bullets are of a high enough caliber that they can not only cover such a ludicrous distance, a single round can tear apart a motorcycle

    Kindaka proves to be a rather calm man. Even while getting seriously injured by Sakamoto and the others he does not feel any anger towards them and instead makes them an offer. He is also quite considerate when it comes to the lives of innocent civilians, avoiding Uzuki when he thought he did not belong to the group as well as wanting to make the daughter of the Chairman laugh, giving Sakamoto the mission to do so. History

    At an unknown time, Kindaka and Yotsumura founded the Order, which at the time, only 4 members were in Japan. The identites and number of members at the time is unknown, however we do know that some of the members he led were Hyo, Yotsumura and Oki.[1] Kindaka used to receive troublesome students that the JCC wanted to get rid off. He either killed them or invited them to join the Order depending on their skill level, as he did with Nagumo, Sakamoto, Rion, and Uzuki.[2]

    During the 8 years in his coma, Nagumo provided the expenses for his life support, he also frequently checked up on him. When he woke up, he is told he owes Nagumo 1.15 Billion which he later tries to pay off by hunting down large bounties such as the one placed on Sakamoto. This leads him to meet Sakamoto, Shin, and Heisuke.

    At an unknown time after he wakes from his coma, Kindaka reunites with his former colleague and founder of the Order, Satoru Yotsumura.

    ADVERTISEMENT Relationships

    Satoru Yotsumura

    Their exact relationship is unknown, both seem to be on good terms since Kindaka founded the Order along with him as well as keeping contact with him. He also thinks that Yotsumura values his opinion enough to let Sakamoto and the others join back into the JCC if he recommends it.

    Etsuko Satoda

    Kindaka seems to have heard of Satoda though their exact relationship is unknown.

    Yoichi Nagumo

    Kindaka fought nagumo and invited him to the order where he led him on a mission to escort the chairman's wife and daughter. Nagumo seems to consider Kindaka as his friend when he reminisces during his encounter with Uzuki and Takamura. Nagumo provided the expenses for Kindaka's life support and frequently visited him, showing how much Nagumo cares about him. In the present day they seem to be on good terms and currently work together with Sakamoto.

    Taro Sakamoto

    Kindaka and Sakamoto first encountered during their fight, where Sakamoto believes Kindaka gave him valuable insights in fighting. Kindaka recruited Sakamoto to the order and led him on a bodyguard mission. Sakamoto seems to look up to Kindaka as someone who is a good fighter, as he asks him to train him. Currently, Kindaka is playing a role in helping Sakamoto achieve his goal of taking over the JAA.

    Sei Asaki

    Not much is known about Kindaka's relationship with Asaki, however, in Chapter 178, he says that he always hated Asaki.

    Shin Asakura and Heisuke Mashimo

    Kindaka trains both Shin and Heisuke after meeting them.

    ADVERTISEMENT Skills & Abilities

    Overall Skill Level: As a former founding member of the Order, Kindaka is one of the strongest known assassins in Japan. Being one of the most formidable assassins at his time and one of the only four members of the Order in Japan, he was trusted by the JAA former chairman and Satoru Yotsumura to escort the chairman's wife and daughter to escape Japan.

    Enhanced Speed: In Taro Sakamoto's Past Arc, neither Nagumo nor Sakamoto were able to keep up with his top speed. This is both thanks to his impressive physical abilities as well as the shoes he is wearing that greatly increases his speed. It was only thanks to Uzuki predicting his movement were they able to spot him. One day after Kindaka woke up from his coma, he was able to dodge Shin's "stop" command, likely transferred by electromagnetic waves, which travel close to the speed of light. Oki stated that Kindaka is still the fastest assassin alive with not even he, the current leader of Order, being able to keep up with his speed.

    Enhanced Strength: During his fight against Nagumo and Sakamoto, he casually flings them about with minimal effort, even throwing Sakamoto through several layers of stairs.

    Enhanced Reflexes: When fighting against Shin and Heisuke, Kindaka was able to react a bullet being fired by Heisuke before dodging.

    Enhanced Endurance: Even after spending 8 years in a coma, Kindaka is still capable of performing incredible feats of speed without rehabilitation. Even Oki said that he has still been the fastest assassin alive.

(1) I'm not an assassin. I'm a filmmaker. I don't have killing skills or weapons. All I have is my ability as a first-rate filmmaker![2]

    Kanaguri (京かなぐり, Kanaguri?) is an undercover member of Kei Uzuki's organization and a former member of the Order. Aside from being an assassin, he is renowned for his films that pioneered assassin movies and is the founder of Murder Films.

    He is a recurring antagonist in the series, being a major antagonist in the JCC Transfer Exams Arc and one of the main antagonists of the JCC Infiltration Arc.

    Appearance

    Kanaguri is a tall and slim man with short bowl-styled black hair with brown fades and a film-reel shape shaved onto the left side. He has green eyes with long lower eyelashes, wears black pants, shoes, a light grey polo shirt under a long black coat and analogue film wrapped around his neck like a scarf. After he lost the use of his right eye after being stabbed by Etsuko Satoda's last act, he now wears an black eyepatch over it.

    Due to his passion for filmmaking, Kanaguri always carries a film camera with him.

    Kanaguri's color scheme as seen in the Volume 12 cover. Kanaguri's color scheme as seen in the Volume 12 cover. Personality

    An eccentric filmmaker, Kanaguri is an avid lover of the craft of filmmaking and seizes every opportunity he can to score some footage to the point of obsession. He seems to have a short attention span, gravitating to whatever is most exciting to him on a moment-to-moment basis and bringing some more action into it when he considers something too boring. To him, film making is his life, and any time he isn't creating a film he regards as "not worth living".[3] Additionally, he is hated by Osaragi for his strange and loud personality.[4]

    Kanaguri's mood greatly depends on his camera as he enters a manic rage, becomes a fierce fighter with determined mentality when trying to film a pivotal moment, and gets depressed when his camera breaks (thus losing all footage), as well threaten to kill anyone who insults his movies. Despite this, he is perseverant, quickly calming himself down and embracing the setback as a challenge.[5]

    Kanaguri's love for filmmaking surpasses his morals as he has sided with Slur to film the conflict between the JAA and the former, not caring which side will win as long as it produces a great film. This stems from his belief that the universe is a one giant movie set, and its inhabitants are actors.[6] He can also act as remarkably and eerily calm, even calmly pondering about the production of his film in the middle of plane crashing from the sky. While freefalling from 20,000 feet, he remained focused on what he was filming. Skills & Abilities

    Overall Skill Level: Kanaguri is a remarkable combatant that in his own words isn't an assassin and doesn't possess an ounce of skill in killing. However, his abilities are superhuman in his ability as a "first-rate" filmmaker. Before becoming an assassin, he was able to fight and kill his good friend who was a first-class professional assassin as a member of the Order. [7] After which, he was fast tracked into becoming a member of the assassination organization for the act.

    As an ex-member of the Order, he is one of the strongest assassins in Japan. His abilities are partially linked to his camera, he becomes weaker due to a lack of motivation if it's destroyed but will become stronger if he gets a replacement camera.

    Filming Skills: Kanaguri is a filmmaker at heart, even when killing he is keen to turn the scene into a movie. He uses his assassination expertise to produce very well-made and popular movies with inhuman determination. This is so strong that his overall physical capabilities seem to improve, whenever it would improve a scene. For instance, when Etsuko Satoda wasn't able to move Kanaguri's arm that is holding his camera, because it otherwise would have ruined his shot.

    Expert Marksman: Kanaguri was able to kill a JAA plane pilot with a headshot through a closed door while hip firing from afar.

    Enhanced Strength: Kanaguri was able to decapitate 8 JAA applicants using his clapperboard and crack Sakamoto's bullet-resistant glasses with a smartphone. Later fighting on par and matching with the legendary assassin.

    Enhanced Speed: Kanaguri once decapitated 8 JAA applicants in an instant. On an airplane, he moved behind Sakamoto and Akira Akao so quickly both failed to notice him, and subsequently managed to dodge Sakamoto's attack, stealing his and Shin's bullets while grabbing an oblivious Akira and taking her with him. Kanaguri's speed is so fast Shin's clairvoyance is unable to predict his movements, almost as if he was changing the future. He is also fast enough to contend with a retired Sakamoto and Etsuko Satoda, landing near-lethal hits on their necks. He was also able to dodge Sakamoto's myriads of attacks and land several blows on the veteran assassin.

    Enhanced Durability: Kanaguri took a strike from Sakamoto that sent him skidding across the greenhouse but left him unharmed.

    Enhanced Endurance: Kanaguri has an incredibly high pain tolerance, being completely unfazed after a knife was thrown into his eye. Equipment

    Clapperboard: Kanaguri has a sharpened clapperboard which he uses as a melee weapon. It is branded by his production company.

    Camera: Kanaguri possesses a camcorder that he carries at all times which he uses for filming.

    Video Camera/Cannon: On one occasion, Kanaguri wielded a bulky professional video camera capable of firing high focused energy blasts. This camera was powerful enough to punch a hole through a plane, causing it to break apart midair.

    Stage Light/High-density laser: Kanaguri uses what appears to be a high density laser capable of melting small objects and damaging hard surfaces. Though Kanaguri states it's just a normal light, it does seem to be custom made. The beam of light reflects off polished surfaces.

    JAA Bullets: During the JAA application test, Kanaguri was given three bullets with "JAA" inscribed across them. These bullets were to be forcibly taken by JAA applicants as a test.

    Kashima is a tall man that wears a pink polo shirt under a magenta business suit (black in the digital-colored manga) a burgundy floral-patterned tie (the tie doesn´t have flowers in the anime while in the digital-colored manga, the tie is black with red and green flowers), black belt with a silver fivel (he doesn´t have a belt in the manga), brown shoes (black in the manga) and the mask of a realistic reindeer head with a dark brown snout and cream-colored spots in the ears and under his eyes (the spots didn´t exist in the manga). Without his mask, he has sunken black eyes, sharp eyebrows, slicked back lilac hair with dark purple streaks (white in the digital colored manga) and dark blue fingernails (black in the digital-colored manga). He has an X-shaped stitch over his mouth that clearly showing his admiration for Slur.

    When Kashima was 17 years old, his hair was styled in a side fringe with short bangs covering the forehead and his outfit consists in a simple black t-shirt accompanied by pants and sneakers that are also black.

    After being captured by Taro Sakamoto and having most of his body destroyed after some bombs inside his back exploded.

    Kashima is cordial, and business-oriented, and emphasizes a man who has polite manners when killing someone or something. He frequently meets his subordinates at casual venues such as karaoke clubs or fast-food joints and allows them to eat or drink on the job as long as it doesn't interfere with their work.

    He has a strong fascination with cutting-edge technology, expressing his disdain for standard guns and knives after becoming a cyborg. He seems to take great pride in his augmented body as shown by his disbelief when Taro Sakamoto managed to beat him during their fight. Kashima's fascination with technology is so strong that he took over a research lab as an "independent project" to facilitate more research. However, despite his obsession with technology, Kashima is still a pragmatic and meticulous planner, rigging the laboratory to explode in case of an emergency as a form of scorched-earth strategy.

    Kashima has a twisted respect for life, such as when he started weeping for his subordinates when they were killed by Osaragi and Shishiba (despite having ordered the latter to kill the former) or how he violently stomped on a cockroach Mafuyu Seba had injured to give it a "merciful death" and has shown himself to be a very delusional and self-righteous person, following his warped ideal of justice and believing himself to be misunderstood as he's eliminating "bad people", despite said individuals only committing minor transgressions like bothering a cat when he was younger.

    Kashima also strangely dislikes Christmas and "people who talk back". He states that he has his own rules saying that he will not show someone his face until he trusts them and has his own moral compass, as shown when he disagreed with Slur's plan that involves endangering civilians, despite claiming that "revolutions require sacrifices" at another point.

    ADVERTISEMENT Skills & Abilities

    Overall Skill Level: As a cyborg. Kashima can hold up against members of the Order and even Sakamoto for a short period. However, while his physical capabilities are quite high, Kashima's greatest strength is his extensive body modifications.

    Enhanced Speed: Kashima was able to catch Shishiba with a casual slash to the chest. Kashima was also capable of holding his own against the overwhelmingly fast Sakamoto for a brief period.

    Cybernetic Modifications: 70% of Kashima's body is surgically modified, he possesses a multitude of weapons concealed within his body that he primarily uses in battle, either by unraveling his stitches or prompting them to emerge from his body; some of the weapons displayed or used by Kashima include:

    Poison Gas: Kobayashi is able to produce a poisonous gas inside his body which he breathes out. It is scentless, colourless and extremely painful. This gas is deadly and works faster depending on muscle movement. Due to heart rate increasing during moments of high adrenaline, the poison acts faster on people who panic or get excited during fights.

    Like other fellow orphans, Kumanomi looked up to Uzuki as their leader. She never questions his orders and really cares about him, as evidenced when she wanted to finish her fight with Shishiba in order to provide aid for the boss during the Assassin Exhibition of the Century Arc.[3]

    However, Kumanomi is also prone to panicking whenever something happened to Uzuki, as shown when he suddenly attacked her while under the Takamura-Uzuki persona.

    Gaku

    As demonstrated multiple times, Kumanomi seems to care deeply about Gaku. This is evident during the Assassin Exhibition of the Century Arc when, after witnessing an injured and unconscious Gaku, Kumanomi rushed to him, checked his condition, and promised to play all his favorite video games with him once they were home. She seems to see him as a little brother, always protecting him by killing every bully who used to pick on him. This is further shown after Gaku lost his right ear in a fight, prompting Kumanomi to go on a mission to kill a member of the Order to avenge Gaku's ear.

    Haruma

    Haruma and Kumanomi were both raised in the Al-Kamar orphanage along with Gaku and Uzuki. The two of them seem to work mostly together, and Kumanomi sees Haruma as a friend and co-worker, caring deeply about him and considering him one of her friends while also scolding him when necessary. This is shown during the Assassin Exhibition of the Century Arc, where Kumanomi gets angry at Haruma's injuries due to his insistence on following the rules of various sports while killing.

    Kashima

    Kumanomi and Kashima had only a few conversations, and due to Kashima's rule and his refusal to remove his mask while introducing himself to Kumanomi, she started seeing him as an enemy. During their introduction, Kumanomi forced him to take off the mask using her magnetic glove. Kashima seemed worried about being considered an enemy by Kumanomi.

    History

    Kumanomi had been raised in the Al-Kamar orphanage since she was little, along with others like Gaku, Haruma, Uzuki, and a few other members of her current group. The Al-Kamar orphanage was established by the JAA to train children from a young age to potentially become future Order members. After leaving the orphanage along with Uzuki, Gaku and all her friends (burning it along the way), they formed a group of assassins, primarily composed of those who were raised together in the same orphanage, the X's Organization. Skills & Abilities

    Overall Skill Level: Kumanomi is a powerful combatant, managing to kill Order member Hyo despite simultaneously fighting Heisuke Mashimo.

She managed to recover in less than a second after being knocked out by one of Hyo's numerous punches and sustaining a shot from Heisuke. Despite losing her arm, she showed no reaction other than irritation and even managed to attack Hyo underwater. Equipment

    Electromagnet Glove: Kumanomi wears a glove-mounted electromagnet on her both hands, allowing her to weaponize the surrounding environment. It can launch objects ranging from nails to small automobiles with incredible force. She has high proficiency in her glove, using it for offense, defense and mobility.

    By using her fingers and thumbs to form two loops, Kumanomi can create a coilgun to launch small objects with enough force to penetrate human skulls. Kumanomi blocked Heisuke's sniper fire by using densely packed iron sand to block a bullet, then flinging the former into his eyes. When fighting Hyo, Kumanomi uses magnetic debris behind him to launch him towards her. Shortly after, she used numerous knives to form a crescent-shaped mass of blades, intending to bring it down upon Hyo from above. During her fight against Hyo, she used her gloves to easily transport herself, being able to utterly crush an ally by landing on him and making herself fly upwards from multiple stories down. While fighting both Hyo and Keisuke, she showed to be able to control iron sand, utilizing it to block Keisuke's bullets and to blind him. Robotic Arm: After her battle against Hyo, Kumanomi lost an arm. It was later replaced by a dark grey robotic prosthesis, which enables her to use her electromagnet abilities more efficiently. Additionally, she can now wear metallic objects as armor.

As part of his goals to destroy the JAA, Uzuki decides to try and kill his brother Sei Asaki, the current chairman of the JAA, during the exhibition. Uzuki also seeks to destroy the Order as part of his goal to destroy the JAA. Kashima implants bombs in Toramaru and Mafuyu, and the two are sent to the exhibition to kill members of the Order, whether through directly killing them, or in the explosions triggered by their deaths.

    Before the exhibition, Haruma kidnaps JAA Executive Erio Muta and brings him to X. X forces Muta to assist with their plans, tasking him with keeping chairman Sei Asaki around as long as possible.

    On the day of the exhibition, Gaku, Kumanomi, and Haruma take a helicopter to the museum. The three jump out of the helicopter, and Haruma spikes an iron ball into the helicopter, destroying it and creating debris for Kumanomi to use to break through the walls of the Museum.

Osaragi spots Shin and Mafuyu in an elevator and joins them in a fight, but is stopped by the sudden appearance of Natsuki scaring her. Natsuki manages to remove the bomb from Mafuyu, but the bomb continues to tick, and Shin manages to get the bomb of the museum safely. The museum locks down and orders Toramaru to be captured after seeing her enter with Mafuyu. Toramaru is chased by JAA members, but is rescued by Sakamoto.
