Description

Kamishiro Nao, a dropout from his high school's athletics club, confesses his feelings to his senior and club manager, Koga Sachi, but is turned down. In despair, he wishes for the end of the world. Soon after, the Koushin singularity disaster strikes and annihilates the small town where Nao and Sachi live.

After surviving the disaster unscathed, Nao and Sachi struggle to escape the disaster zone, which has mysteriously been geographically and temporally separated from the rest of the country. They rescue four other survivors along the way, with Nao and Sachi developing superhuman abilities to defend themselves against the monsters that prey on the surviving humans in the disaster zone.

An attack by the monsters on one of the evacuation zones eventually provides the six survivors with an unexpected escape route, but Yuuri is separated from the others. The five remaining members try to find him but instead discover a modern metropolis over the hills surrounding their valley town that has been untouched by the disaster...

Description

The former sprint star of the school athletics club, he drops out after tearing his knee ligament and told he'll never achieve the same results after rehabilitation. He takes out his frustrations by exploiting his physical attributes as a brawler for hire but is constantly harassed by his ex-manager Koga Sachi. Eventually he falls in love with her but his confession is rejected the same day the Koushin Disaster strikes...

His Baroque powers allow him to absorb anything he comes into contact with to heal his wounds and to reform as armour which protects him from almost all conventional weaponry. His preferred protection is the organic armour he attained after absorbing the cells of the "enemy" he encountered in the ruins of his town. After training with his fellow escapees, Nao also learns how to hide himself by assimilating his cellular structure with the surrounding environment allowing him to attack foes from their blind spots. He can also transform his legs which allows him to fuse with skyscraper walls and climb them without difficulty.

His primary Baroque bonds are with his fellow survivors with the exception of Nara who didn't manifest the same abilities as the other survivors.

Description

The sole survivor of her household after the Koushin Disaster strikes, she is saved by Nao together with Yachiru.

Gregarious and high-spirited, she keeps the survivors' spirits high no matter how tough it gets in the town ruins. She frequently teases Yachiru and frequently asks Nao and Sachi about the nature of their relationship.

When the survivors reach New Akatsuki town, Kamori is the most adaptable and attempts to recreate the life she had before the Disaster as best as she can. She's extremely fond of convenience store junk food but is cautious of her calorie intake.

Kamori doesn't manifest her Baroque powers until she reaches New Akatsuki town. She can spontaneously generate fire and quickly learns to use it for both offence and defence. The raw power of her fireballs is enough to melt steel at 1500 degrees Celsius.

Description

The manager of the school athletics club, she is the only person who shows concern for Kamishiro Nao after his ligament tear. She turns down his love confession on the same day as the Koushin Disaster and is found unharmed close to Nao when he awakens in the town ruins. Aside from knowing who Nao is and the memories they spent together, she initially remembers nothing else after the disaster.

In New Akatsuki town she lives close to Nao in a different apartment complex. She spends her time trying to recover memories of her life before the disaster and cooking for Nara when she comes to stay over for the night.

Her Baroque power allows her to manifest three clones of herself armed with a variety of weapons. If the clones are destroyed, she is assailed by immense pain which can render her incapable of action until she recovers. Controlling her clones is mentally taxing and she is unable to coordinate the clones efficiently the longer the battle drags on.

Voiced byHirokawa Mamoru

Description

Yuuri's adult form when his fellow survivors jump through Oozaki's rift in pursuit. He is now taller than Nao and has mastered his Baroque powers to survive against constant pursuit by the Conglomerate's security forces.

His Baroque powers are similar to Nao's in his ability to absorb material to regenerate wounds and to manifest body armour for combat. Unlike Nao, he transforms his right hand into a large piledriver capable of offence and defence and generates tentacles from his back which he can use to ensnare his opponents. He lacks Nao's versatility as the basis for his powers is fundamentally different from Nao's despite the similarities in function.

In addition to his fellow survivors, he transmits the Baroque virus to Ozaki directly as a mark of his trust after liberation from Conglomerate experimentation.

RoleUniversity Student
Voiced byHika Rei

Description

A university student visiting Akatsuki town when the Koushin Disaster strikes. Nao saves her and Kamori when he encounters them by chance after leaving the ruined underground passageways.

Although supremely confident in her appearance and abilities, she's really a klutz who panics easily and likes to show off her achievements to her fellow survivors, no matter how minor they might be.

After escaping Akatsuki town, she leverages her fame as a Disaster Zone Survivor by working in the entertainment industry. Her duties include filming variety shows and commercials for the local media outlets in New Akatsuki Town.

Her Baroque power is the manipulation of sound. She can manifest a parrot (which is a talking outlet of her subconscious self) and direct it at targets with considerable sonic force. She can confuse opponents by creating decoy noises and silencing her own.

Description

Member of "The Six". Perpetually inebriated to cope with the terrible knowledge that comes with her gift of precognition.

She is never involved in the military operations of her comrades as her sole function is to relay the prophecies she receives on an irregular basis to the commander. They trust her implicitly as every single prophecy she has delivered has come to pass despite her unconscious obfuscation of details (human frames cannot cope with the information overload and its consequences).

Description

Member of "The Six". Previously a professional gambler in Las Vegas. Possesses the power of pyrokinesis.

His lack of professionalism and thrill-seeking personality frequently put him at odds with Clarissa and Nadreck. After manifesting his pyrokinesis powers, he was scouted by Kinnison and works under his team. His intrinsic love of gambling is fulfilled by the risks he frequently incurs as part of his job.

Like Kamori, he is capable of manipulating fire. However his training and experience far exceed hers and he is capable of manipulating the oxygen levels of an environment to better fuel his flames.
