Early Days[]
Born in the 1930s, a time of turmoil that would soon lead to World War II, there is little else about Hyoubu's parents other than that his mother was a high-level Chinese psychic from the mainland and his father was one of the Japanese colonists. unknown. and scientists who studied her abilities on a Japanese-owned island. However, she exploits her powers to such an extent that her mother becomes the victim of an accident caused by her misuse of her supernatural powers. Having lost his wife and his pride, his father chose to live in sadness and alcohol. As a result, Hyoubu was abused and neglected from an early age. Hyoubu's father even described her supernatural powers as a curse. It had a great influence on the rest of his life, as it inspired his desire to "do something good" with his inherited powers. As the ideal Esper soldier of the Japanese army, or as the leader of the infamous P.A.N.D.R.A.
Kyousuke goes to live with his father's research colleague, the wealthy Mr. Tsubomi, who treats him with great respect and quickly welcomes him into the family. They even became brothers.
War Time[]
Tsubomi's involvement ended in the approach of the Japanese military, who sought to recruit the young Esper into their new special forces unit. Fujiko accepts the invitation without thinking too much and drags the skeptical Kyousuke along with her. Upon entering the military, Kyousuke discovered a new family, all of whose members were Espers like him. Although they behaved like ordinary people and rejected the military path, all of them quickly accepted Kyousuke and made his life enjoyable thereafter.
The commander of the Espers squad was Eiji Saotome, a strong-tempered man who became the person Kyousuke respected most, and Saotome tried her best to convince them that Espers could be used during the war. I did. She even managed Esper troops and received special treatment from the military. Under Saotome's direction, Kyousuke showed great potential despite his young age.
When the commander finally gets the attention of the Espers, their first test is a sparring battle between modern planes and Espers. Kyousuke was chosen, and he succeeded and was given the opportunity to join the force.
During his time as a military esper soldier in training, he met the esper dolphins Ikkyu-go 008 and 009, who foresaw the future and soon became friends with Kyousuke. Iruka showed Kyousuke the future. He was shot dead by the man a powerful woman loved. She apologized to Kyousuke, saying that this woman somehow knew she was looking for him. This event showed him that he was forever in love with the woman and became very interested in why someone from the distant future knew him.
One of their first missions was to enter the battlefield as a support force and help refuel Japanese aircraft in the air. Its success prompted the military to try to use its power even more offensively, but the next mission ended with the death of the first esper, and Kyosuke went berserk, using the power of his deceased comrades He absorbed it and destroyed an aircraft carrier by himself. It was this moment that changed his life. He began using his school uniform as a mourning uniform, attracting the attention and fear of military leaders.
By this time Saotome already had knowledge of future war predictions, but he delves deeper than Kyousuke and discovers that the Espers, commanded by the Queen of Calamities, are grouped by an organization started by Kyousuke himself. I learned that he had been appointed to a high position in the military. Saotome declares him a potential danger to national security and decides to eliminate him, and inside Tsubomi's mansion Saotome shoots him dead.
Kyosuke dies immediately after being shot, but just before he completely disappears, his ability causes a miraculous healing, and his body functions start working again, bringing him back to life and immediately taking revenge on Saotome.
Enraged, angry, and full of power, Kyosuke begins to take revenge on everyone involved in the death of the Esper unit. His death, the investigation took years and he managed to kill them one by one, eventually discovering his death. Her sister Fujiko Tsubomi manages to escape Esper's massacre and works for the government instead of taking revenge on her, but although he had no reason to kill her, he understands why she chose that path. could not. Fujiko was really angry about the assassination of Kyousuke, her friend who created B.A.B.E.L. As a result, they could never be on the same side and became rivals.
As the years passed, Kyosuke realized he needed Espers and began grouping them into an organization that would later become P.A.N.D.R.A. He finds Muscle Okama as his first subordinate, Shiro Magi as his right-hand man, Momiji as a motherly figure and executive, and Yo Fujiura as a young supporter, and in order to acquire the organization's resources, he goes on a criminal mission with the base staff. began to engage in It grew little by little and started making connections all over the world.
The highlight point of his life was the birth of Kaoru Akashi, the future Queen of Catastrophe. We witnessed her birth. On this same day, he left P.A.N.D.R.A., deciding to let B.A.B.E.L. capture him and keep him close to the Queen. The members were mostly active on their own, and apparently did not become active until she was 10 years old, at which age he finally realized that she knew Koichi Minamoto and drew her to him. He decides to take action to involve her and two other espers. Children' to the P.A.N.D.R.A. But unfortunately, by the time he makes his move, the three children are already too attached to Minamoto, and his actions are a sign of his hatred for his hated rival, Minamoto. Even if the approach was just a joke, he comes to be seen by the children as an adversary of sorts, which causes him to change his plans and work to bring the Queen to the P.A.N.D.R.A. in the long run. .
While still in the company of the young queen, he became aware of the growing danger. A commonplace organization called the Black Phantom, once a legitimate arms dealer, has now turned into an Esper kidnapper, turning their victims into brainwashed assassins and selling them off. Seeing them as enemies, Kyousuke temporarily set aside his pursuit of future wars and focused on disbanding the Black Phantom, which ultimately led to a conflict between The Children and Black Phantom's agents, leading to their turned into a common enemy that cannot be defeated. Either B.A.B.E.L. or P.A.N.D.R.A. without mutual aid.
