List of Code:Breaker characters


The following is a list of characters from the manga series Code:Breaker.

Main characters

Sakura Sakurakōji

Sakura Sakurakōji is thought of as cute and helpless by boys who think they should protect her. However, she is a martial arts expert and turns down guys who ask her out based on their protective feelings because they don't know the real her. The story is told from Sakura's perspective, but her influence on the plot is bare minimal.
Before the storyline, she found an old dog whose homeless owner had died a few months before the start of the story. She attempts to befriend the dog, whom she promptly names "Dog". Her attempts are fruitless until Ogami comes. She is immune to Ogami's fire and cannot be burned for reasons unknown which strongly draws the interest of the Code: Breaker organization leading her to be dubbed as a "Rare Kind". Later through the story, she is able to dispel other Code: Breakers' abilities, leading one to believe that her ability is that she negates the abilities of others. Together with her fighting skills, this makes Sakura a formidable force against other Code: Breakers and Re-Codes. She also seems to have a superior sense of smell, able to tell the real Yuuki from the fake by her smell, telling it's Ren in a costume, and even smell someone's personality.
Sakura disagrees strongly with Ogami regarding his views on people, specifically criminals, and that they are trashes who need to die. It is later revealed that she is the daughter of the most respected head of the yakuza. After the fight with Haruto, she tells Ogami that she was adopted by her parents when he tries to find albums of her before she was 5. She was spared by Ogami because of her identity as a "rare kind". She cannot be affected by Ogami's flame at all and by hugging Kanda, she was able to cancel out Hitomi's electric mind control. She managed to completely reverse Yukihina's "Eternity Zero" although it used up all her power. Like the Code: Breakers, if she uses too much of her ability, she will revert to the size of a doll. Hitomi has hidden a key that the Re-Codes are looking for with "Puppy". After being kidnapped by "The one being Sought", she now has his tattoo on the back of her neck, something that greatly upsets Ogami. She also remembers that she met "The one being Sought" back when she was a child and gave the key to him, which means the key is originally Sakura's. She later met Inoichi in chapter 65 and in 66 when Sakura was in danger, Sakura had a flashback, remembering she knows Inoichi. And Inoichi had always protected her and always stayed by her side.
It is highly suggested in the later part of the series that there is more to her and the world of the Codes that she is unaware of, where the Code: Breakers deliberately had her leave to go on a camping trip while they fought the Re-Codes at the Shibuya Mansion.
It was also revealed in chapter 75 that "he" said that the room where Pandora'a Box was being kept was the same as it was when their mother died and that her death was caused by Sakura and "the one being sought" also mention that Sakura's memories should be starting to come back.
In Chapter 76, it was said that the mother of Ogami and "the one being sought" died because of protecting Sakura, and Ogami, Inochi, and Hitomi were there with Sakura during that incident—meaning Ogami already met Sakura when they were younger.
In Chapter 77, it is revealed that her real father is the Student Council President. In previous chapters, he has also stated that Sakura must not realize that she is a Rare Kind, otherwise, she cannot return to a normal lifestyle. It was also stated that the Student Council President didn't want Sakura to become like himself, a non-existent person because of the power of the rare kind.
In Chapter 111, it is revealed that Sakura's real mother was one of the four founders of Eden.
In Chapters 112 onward, it appears as though Sakura unknowingly has gained a crush on Ogami. When he initiates a hug towards her for the first time to prove that he was still warm and alive, her entire face turns red. When asked, she states that it was the first time he hugged her, so she was surprised, but Ogami didn't understand why she was blushing. In Chapter 113, Sakura grabs his fingers, saying that they were warm and the Emperor should be alive. Ogami moves to hold her whole hand, and once again she inexplicably blushes and stutters. Ogami, however, thinks that it is a 'feature of the rare kind' and thinks that he should do some more tests to examine her.
It was thought that in chapter 122, when Sakura and Ogami are childhood friends, she was the one that took Ogami's arm. It was instead another Rare Kind they call "Fussy Lunch" because he is always seen eating. He had blown off Ogami's arm and Ogami slumped over Sakura, crying he couldn't protect anyone before he died.

06 Rei Ōgami

Rei Ōgami is introduced as a mysterious young boy about whom not much is known. His first appearance in the manga is when Sakura sees him in the park, and immediately becomes a transfer student at her school the next day. He wears a black glove on his left hand. His part-time job is eliminating the "trash" of the people. He has so far eliminated a local gang called G-falcon who were attacking Sakurakouji and Dog, the local yakuza who controlled G-falcon, and a group of corrupt police officers, one of them vaguely knowing who the Code: Breakers are. He also apparently killed his parents. His Code: Breaker codename is Code: 06, stating he is the weakest of the Code: Breakers.
Ogami's left hand is capable of causing anything he touches to combust into blue flames. However in chapter 31, it is revealed that the ring around his thumb is a limiter, where when removed he no longer needs to touch it to cause combustion and it is stated to surpass a Code: 01. He covers it with a black leather glove when he doesn't use his power, where this glove was given to him by his brother, and wears it as a reminder to kill him. It is later revealed that his arm is not his own, explaining why his firepower only comes from his left arm and not his right. In chapter 102, it is stated that he had died once while he was younger, and that the left arm he has now acts as a heart for him because it governs life and death, without it he would die. The Lost Form for Rei after using his power for extended periods causes him to have a high fever along with a lower body temperature and, like all other Code: Breakers, won't be able to use his power again until exactly 24 hours have elapsed. After the resurrection of "Code: Emperor", however, his Lost Form changes into invisibility, lasting for less than 24 hours. Ogami's left arm is not his; in fact, it belongs to the Code: Emperor. He is supposed to eliminate any witnesses to his powers, but he cannot fulfill this in Sakura's case because he cannot cause her to combust. As the story progresses, Ogami grows fond of Sakura. He became protective of her but denies it by acting cold. This grows more evident when he was willing to put on a stupid costume under the belief it would help Sakura return to normal size and became completely dissociated after Sakura was kidnapped by "The one being Sought" to where he didn't realize he came to school in his pajamas and brought canned food instead of his school books.
Ogami believes strongly in the idea behind the Code of Hammurabi, often citing the quote "Eye for eye, Tooth for tooth" and adding on "EVIL for EVIL" Ogami fulfills a role similar to an anti-hero. Although he seems uncaring towards anyone, Sakura notes that his actions contradict his words and that he wouldn't go to such lengths if he didn't truly care. This is later shown where he has a completely uncaring attitude to Lily's mercenary threats, only to react when he attempted to kill a pregnant woman. He also appears to have a hobby in swordsmanship and is quite skilled as well, able to slice through arrows while still in. He has completed studying under the student council president, strengthening his power and is currently heading to face the Re-Codes. In the fight with "The one being Sought" Ogami has memories of his life with "The one being Sought". Ogami ends up killing "The one being Sought", his brother, but had to be protected by Toki, Yuuki, and Sakura. This makes him stronger because he doesn't want his friends to get hurt for him. After defeating "The one being Sought" Ogami starts daydreaming and making models of castles. He starts staring into space as if regretting having killed his brother. He also gets a new power The Black Flame called Belphegor in chapter 104 which is strong enough to burn Yuuki's "Sound" but at a price. And his blue flame, "Satan's flame", also came at a price which was his sense of taste. In chapter 111, the emperor gives him another power called the Mammon while fighting with Heike. In chapter 121, it is revealed that he was the one that taught Sakura how to love living things, and was the one that made her to love hugging people.
In chapter 87, Ogami first meets the Emperor who appears as a small flame. Later the Emperor's form changes into that of the child form of his original self. It was revealed the reason why the Emperor's arm chose Ogami out of so many other people was because Ogami originally had the same ability as the Emperor, and as a child, he was able control it using his entire body, thus being more powerful than his current self. While they argue most of the time, Ogami and the Emperor care about each other, as shown when the Emperor dies but when they meet again in Ogami's subconsciousness, Ogami gives the Emperor a huge hug while threatening to beat him up for dying. Emperor notes that the last time they hugged was when he gave Ogami his arm. Afterwards, the Emperor fades away and tells Ogami not to die, for he is the next man worthy of being the next Emperor.
In chapter 120, when Ogami was transformed into a six-year-old child by Aoba, he was revealed to have an extremely foul and insulting mouth, calling Sakura "Doll Head", Puppy "Mopping Rag", Rui "Drunken Tomboy", Aoba "Busty Girl", Maede "Dirty Dickhead", and Uesugi "Giant Guy". His personality is much more commanding and arrogant, and he says his true thoughts without hesitation. However, he is also against killing things and cherishes the values of life. He is also extremely insightful and, while blunt, gentle; when Aoba was beating him, he told her "You're sad? You're bad, yet you look like you're about to cry. I'll help you. Don't be sad now, "Busty Girl"." He is more frank and honest about his feelings as a child and does not hesitate in showing gratitude, such as when he told Uesugi, "I don't know what all this is about, but you helped a complete stranger like me. Thanks, "Giant Guy.". When Uesugi and Puppy were injured by Aoba from protecting him, Ogami became furious and unleashed his abilities to stop her and make her apologize. He then revealed that as a child he already possessed all Seven Flames and was able to control them easily.
In chapter 136, Toki explains that Ogami has the Imperial Blood of Purgatory. He is the sole heir of the bloodline able to control the Seven Flames. Because of this, he was treated as royalty by many other power users when young, possibly explaining his arrogant attitude as a child.
As Yukihina said it, "Because this is the reaper, Ogami Rei. He can even send fear quivering down the spines of those demons and stand atop them." Furthermore, Ogami is revealed to be the 'forbidden being', a hybrid child between a power user and a rare kind. Since power users and rare kinds naturally negate each other, to the point where their blood combined explodes, it is impossible to copulate, thus making Ogami an impossible existence. According to Saechika, that is the main reason why the Seven Demons listen to him.

The Seven Flames

The Seven Flames are Ogami's power. While most 'Special Abilities' involve the manipulation of natural phenomena, these 'Seven Flames' are of unearthly origin, something that should not even exist, and thus do not behave like or have the same limitations as natural fire. In fact, the flames are governed by and named after Seven Demons and each embody one of the Seven Deadly Sins, being described as Seven Flames that burn away the Seven Deadly Sins. In truth, the flames used to belong to Code: Emperor, whose arm has been bestowed onto Ogami and acts as the latter's heart ; the flames are so dangerous that their use is considered taboo, and it is said that whoever can master them is fit to be called 'Emperor of Hell'.
Since they come with a unique colors, shapes, and effects, the 'Seven Flames' can be seen as a set of seven distinct abilities; also, given their differing and sometimes clashing natures, it is important to use the flames only when appropriate for the situation at hand, and maintaining use of multiple flames at once is a considerable burden that should be avoided. In reality, Rei has never used multiple flames at the same time until he unlocked the final flame, which allowed him to finally unite all seven into a white inferno.
Each Flame requires a 'price' that Ogami must pay to wield it, though a deal can take place instead of a proper payment. While Ogami can control three flames by himself, the last four, the wildest and most unpredictable, had their original payments taken from a child-aged Ogami's dead body by the Four Founders of Eden. So far, Ogami has gotten back two payments from Heike and Sakurako.Satan Blaze: Ogami's signature flame, which he uses most often. It is a bright azure flame that can burn all matter to nothing, is inextinguishable by mundane means, emits neither sound, smell nor smoke while burning, and leaves behind no ashes. The power takes a lot out of Ogami, hence why he has opted to seal some of it with a ring under his glove, on his left hand. Also, at first, Ogami could only spawn Satan Blaze from his left hand, though he later became able to use it with his entire left arm, and was temporarily able to use it with his entire body. Additionally, while Ogami could initially only release the flame upon contact, he later became able to control it freely even at a distance. The price for Satan Blaze was Ogami's sense of taste, explaining why he is so passive about food. Interestingly, the Sin that Satan takes on is 'Anger', and when Ogami is extremely angry, the azure flame also grows in power.
  • * Flame away.: Ogami's signature attack, used to dispose of those he deems deserving of punishment. He creates his intensely hot blue flame while grabbing hold of his target, surrounding and burning them away in the blaze while leaving no ashes.
  • * Flame of Rebuke: A curse-like technique where Ogami places his flame within someone's body, around their heart, to serve as a behavioral restriction: the flame will continue burning inside the victim until the day they die, yet do no harm unless they break a binding rule declared by Ogami; this was seen when the flame was put inside Haruto, making it so that if he ever commits a crime again, he will be burned from within by hellfire.Belphegor: A black flame capable of burning away other people's Special Powers; when fully unleashed, it enrobes Ogami like a black coat. The original price of Belphegor is unknown, but the Emperor took part of Yuuki's Sound ability for payment. The Sin Belphegor represents and burns away is 'Sloth'.Mammon: The flame representing the Sin 'Greed'. Being the so-called Two-Colored Twin Lights of the Underworld, Mammon is a two-colored flame: it consists of one hot blue and another cool yellow half. Its true form are flaming twin swords called 2-Colored Twin-Sword Fire of the Underworld. When they clash together, they form a giant, green-colored whirlwind capable of incinerating steel, while creating a powerful vortex in its wake that sucks foes in; Mammon is best used for multiple opponents, especially low-level henchmen. Mammon is the only flame so far which the Emperor has given Ogami for free.Beelzebub: The flame representing the Sin 'Gluttony'. Beelzebub is depicted as a large fly-shaped flame that consumes everything due to its extreme hunger. Ogami cows Beelzebub into listening to him, and Beelzebub promises to work for Ogami, as long as it gets to eat Ogami's heart when he dies. Beelzebub's true form is the six-winged archangel Seraphim, the original fire-angel of judgement. Seraphim had gotten too arrogant with its power and was cast away from heaven to hell, becoming a demon. Beelzebub is the Colorless Pure Fire of Hell : a flame so hot that it has no color, burning at upwards of 1,500 °C. The price of Beelzebub was an enormous feather given by Heike, most likely a feather from Beelzebub's original appearance. Beelzebub's true form is "The Armor of Achromatic Flame Which No One Can See Nor Get Near To". The appearance being a cloak with the right side with wings of skulls. The abilities of this form is an invisible rain of fire that is fast enough to even burn away anything it touches, while burning faster than cellular regeneration can heal.Leviathan: The flame that burns away the Sin 'Envy'. Ogami uses this flame for the first time in chapter 199 most likely given by Sakura's mother through a kiss. Leviathan in its raw form looks like a chained sea dragon whose flame is silver and has the power to sever whatever the flame touches. The true form however is that of an ice dragon that goes by the name Silver-Colored Apparition Fire of the Netherworld. The power of the flame allows Ogami to drain all heat away from an area, creating ice in its place to freeze those who are caught in the area of effect.Asmodeus: Asmodeus is the Rainbow-Colored Explosive Flame Hell, being the flame that represents the Sin 'Lust'. Ogami initially fails to regain this flame since the founder Zed gave the flame to Mishiru because she was a girl, but he successfully obtains it after taking possession of its demon from Kagerou. At first, Asmodeus displayed the ability to trap people inside an illusion of lust, while slowly consuming them. Its true power, however, lies in its capability of producing massive explosions of iridescent color. Furthermore, the sound produced by the explosion can shatter the inner ear of people with sensitive hearing, like Yuuki. In order to gain control over Asmodeus, Ogami offered his sense of smell as payment.Lucifer: The seventh and final flame, and a more powerful form of the Satan Blaze. Representing the Sin of 'Pride', Lucifer holds the power to subjugate and unite the other seven Demons.

Eden

The mysterious organization that controls the Code: Breakers. They give orders to the Code: Breakers of corrupt politicians that need to be assassinated or people that need to be protected from assassination. Despite their need for Code: Breakers, they often refer to them as merely dogs and will get rid of them if they are no longer useful or see them as a future threat despite the fact they have done nothing wrong. It has been stated there are three people who control Eden currently, though the only one revealed so far is Fujiwara's dad.
Eden was founded during the Meiji Era 100 years ago by the Code: Emperor, Heike, Sakurakouji Sakurako, and Zed The Hero.

Founders of Eden

The founders of Eden consist of four people: Masaomi Heike, Sakurako Sakurakōji, Zed the Hero and Code: Emperor.
;Sakurako Sakurakōji

Code: Breakers

Code: Numbers

;02
Special Technique:
  • Great Fantasy: Used to connect himself to a phone jack to relay and download information with his mind
  • Eternal Binding of Death: Traps the enemies mind within an eternal illusion of death
  • Death Reaction: Used to move fast enough to cut bullets with his whip faster than others can react
  • Open the mind: Used to create a torrent of light, destroying all once he removes his jacket.
;03
Later it was said Yūki had a bar code on his chest, showing that he was dumped by Eden. His shirt was torn off as he was protecting others like him and Shigure. His real self has long light hair and fighting capabilities greater than Ogami's, though it was only shown briefly before he transformed back.
Code of Hammurabi: "And the Requiem of Fury for the Wicked"
Special Techniques:
  • Scarlet Phoneme: Uses very high density sound waves as a shell to shelter and revitalize his body.
  • Sound Life: Yuuki used this technique to pass his powers on to Ogami. It was taken away later as a payment for the flame of Belphegor by Code: Emperor.
;04
Special Techniques:
  • Gauss Cannon: His most powerful attack. He gathers two large balls of scrap metal. He holds one with one arm then uses his attraction to slam the second one into his other, making his body into a connector which causes the ball he is holding to fly at incredible speeds. However, this attack has a major drawback, as the damage of slamming the ball into his arm causes major harm to said arm, making it so he could only use that attack twice without causing permanent injury to himself. With the Joker power released, he is now able to use this technique to gather and shoot several great balls of scrap metal more easily with no sign of burden to him.
  • Oersted Cannon Ball: This technique was used via Earth's magnetic field which enable him to attract any metal while floating them and use them to attack opponents.
  • Tesla Gatling: With the power of Geomagnetism, he is able to attract any metal in the vicinity and form it into a burst-like straight cannon strong enough to nullify Rei's third flame "Mammon"; Toki is also able to make it into a stronger version called "Dynamo Webber Vulcan".
  • Rail Cannon: A Railgun-based technique and his fastest attack. Amplified with Electromagnetism, this enables him to launch several coil beyond speed of sound.

Code: Names

They are four members of the Code: Breakers whose skills are so strong they are given Names instead of Numbers. Unlike the Numbers, the Names are allowed to kill whoever they wish, such as the Closer killing innocent civilians merely because a person bumped into him. Some are even shown to possess two abilities rather than just one. It is currently unknown what purpose the Code: Names are given within Eden.

  • Balloon Arrow: Creates a bow and several arrows and fires them all

The Angels

The Angels are a group of powerful Rare Kinds that were subject to the events of December 32 much like Ogami and Sakura, their elimination is the true goal of the Code:Names. They hate humans believing them to be nothing more than evil, and orchestrate several events in order to test humanity's character, amongst them the publication of an online site in which people can judge the fate of criminals by pardoning them or punishing them, take on revenge requests at the price of their customers lives and the release of several murderers from prison to see their actions. All the Angels have great control over their Rare Kind powers allowing them to siphon the life force of everybody around them, thus easily draining the power of the Code:Breakers turning them into their Lost Form with relative ease and also have an unparalleled level of physical prowess that far outmatches that of both the Code:Breakers and the Code:Names. Their only weakness is a certain spot on their bodies, that when touched, drastically reduces their physical performance.
Fussy Lunch
The Rare Kind who was really responsible for cutting off Ogami's arm. He's the leader of the Angels and seemingly the most powerful of them. He was a childhood friend of Ogami until the events of December 32. Currently he's after Prime Minister Fujiwara who holds Pandora's Box.
Reggae Four-Eyes
A bespectacled Angel. Due to the power of Zed the Hero, he's revived after the events of December 32, turning him immortal until his life force is returned to him. He orchestrates the liberation of several inmates that once released, started committing several crimes that the Code:Breakers had to stop. After the vast majority of the murdered was killed by Ogami, after admitting that they would not stop their criminal activities, Four-Eyes kills a sole survivor that was willing to turn himself in, prompting a battle with Ogami. Devoted to the core to Fussy Lunch, this becomes his downfall after Ogami preys on his envy of Fussy Lunch taking more interest on Ogami than him, which causes the demon Leviathan to devour his envy and encase him in solid-ice.
Cool Yankee
A delinquent-looking Angel. Due to the power of Zed the Hero, he's revived after the events of December 32, turning him immortal until his life force is returned to him. During the festival event at Ogami's school, he is faced by Toki on an obstacle race where he's provoked by Toki in order to discover his weak point. He, along with Cat Boy, offer a revenge service at their customers behest by murdering their target of hatred at the price of the customers lives. He once more encounters Toki in his child form, and the two battle with Yankee being overwhelmed by Toki's magnetized bullets. He reveals to Toki that Nenene was never her sibling and was just a pawn used by Eden in order to balance Toki's strong magnetism powers by having the brothers exchange one of their eyes. Seemingly overwhelmed Toki reveals that he knew the truth ever since he fought his Greed. Passing the life force of Cool Yankee that he received from Zed, Toki manages to kill Yankee by using his Rail Cannon, piercing him with several coils.
Cat Boy
An angel that has a Cat-eared haircut. Due to the power of Zed the Hero, he's revived after the events of December 32, turning him immortal until his life force is returned to him. He, along with Cool Yankee, start taking on revenge requests to kill targets of hatred as per their customers request but at the price of their lives. He along with Franken attack Rui and Yuuki who are on Lost Form. He explains to them that Prime Minister Fujiwara was the mastermind of December 32 in order to acquire the power of Negation. As he attacks Yuuki after a provocation, he's split by Rui using Sakurako's sword turning him into two de-powered small versions of himself. After Franken is defeated he tried to strangle Rui using wires despite the difference of size. Rui manages to return his life back to him and as a result of this, his body begins to crumble due to a large strain.
Franken
The largest of the Angels. Due to the power of Zed the Hero, he's revived after the events of December 32, turning him immortal until his life force is returned to him. He, along with Cat Boy, attacks Rui and Yuuki in order to kill them. After nearly killing Rui, he's faced by the robots of Sakurako which he easily destroys. He's then faced by Yuuki who returns to his normal form and transforms using his Voice of Life, with which he discovers Franken's Vital Spot, returning his life force back to him and then attacking him viciously until his death.
