Kanade Uryu

Meiza Kanade and his angel seem to get along. They both agree that Kanade should try to kill all the other god candidates in order to become a god as quickly as possible. The name Kanade means "to perform music, to complete" (奏). The surname Kanade Uryu means "life, being" (生) (wu) and "flow, style, manner, method" (流) (ryu).

While Tonma Rodriguez was with numerous women, whom he was controlling with the Red Arrow, Kanade, who had donned his armor to conceal his identity, burst into Tonma's limousine and killed him with a White Arrow. When the women under Tonma's control regained consciousness and began to flee, Kanade looked down on them from the roof of a nearby building and condemned Tonma for using his powers so selfishly.

The next day, while admiring his arrow, Kanade decided with his angel that the fastest way to become the next god was to kill the other god candidates.[[[Human Nature|Chapter 2]]]

He later appeared on a news broadcast, where he recounted his exploits as a real-life hero and commented on footage of himself stopping a bank robbery. When asked about his goals, Kanade replied that he had two: to bring peace to the world and to find and defeat his twelve enemies, who had come to earth from the Heavenly Kingdom (referring to the other god candidates).

After the interview, Kanade returned home to be greeted by an angel. As he took off his costume, Kanade noted that his high school entrance ceremony was the following morning and added how "cool" it was that he, the Metropolitan superhero, was actually a high school student.[[[Hero of Justice|Chapter 3]]] Capabilities Wings - Wings give Canada the "freedom" to fly anywhere in the world. Red Arrow - The red arrow has the power to make anyone it hits fall in love with the user for 33 days. White Arrow - The white arrow is capable of instantly killing anyone it hits. Kanade can also fire two arrows with a 0.33 second delay between shots, materializing the second arrow immediately after the first.

Kanade attends Joso Academy, where his grandfather is the principal. [[[Death Sentence|Chapter 7]]]

At some point, Kanade's younger sister died, and he keeps her remains frozen at Joso Industries' heavy chemical technology research facility. He still cares deeply for her and brings her flowers on her birthday. [[[Death Sentence|Chapter 7]]]

Having gained the powers of a god candidate, Kanade decided to become a hero to restore justice to the world. However, this was all just a ruse so he could carry out his plan to find and kill other god candidates for his own gain. Having obtained a replica of the superhero costume of Metropoliman from the television series, Kanade officially adopted the name "Metropoliman" and began posing as the real-life version of the superhero.

At some point, Kanade learned of a bank robbery and decided to intervene to try and rescue the hostages held by the robbers. After shooting the police officers stationed outside the bank with a red arrow, Kanade approached the bank and forced one of the robbers to surrender with a red arrow. Another robber inside the bank opened fire but missed, killing only his comrade. Enraged, Kanade attacked the remaining robber and killed him with a white arrow.[[[Hero of Justice|Chapter 3]]]

Kanade also displays a certain childishness, as evidenced by his decision to imitate a TV superhero character and even his comments about how "cool" it is that he, an ordinary high school student, leads a double life as a superhero.

He has an unhealthy obsession with his sister. He accidentally pushed her from a height, and she fell to her death in the garden where they were. To find a way to bring her back to life, Kanade decided to place her in a cryopod. Upon learning that he could resurrect her if he became a god, he decided to become a candidate and try to speed up the selection process for god candidates by killing other candidates. Despite his calm and stern demeanor, he is a coward. He will not engage in a fight in which he believes he does not have a clear advantage, and will always set up someone else while he stands by and watches them die for his own gain or amusement. His cowardice was on full display before he was killed by Nanato Mukaido; when Kanade begged for his life, he tried to justify his actions by claiming they were "for his sister's sake," and offered to pay Mirai Kakehashi money and make Saki Hanakago his wife, or give them everything he had, just so they would let him go.[[[One Life|chapter 25]]] By the end of the story, Kanade emerges as a man indifferent and unconcerned about things beyond his control due to innate characteristics, such as facial structure. Some say this is intended to evoke dislike in readers before his defeat.

Kanade Uryu (生流奏, Uryuu Kanade?), also known as Metropoliman (メトロポリマン, Metroporiman?), was the first main antagonist of Platinum End. He was a human chosen by the angel Meiza as a god candidate. He is 182 cm tall. Canada was sixteen years old and a high school student. He had wavy white hair, narrow eyes, long eyelashes, and a thin, heart-shaped face. He had a slender figure.

Kanade was most often seen in his Metropolitan costume, which gave him the appearance of a superhero. Neither his body nor his facial features were visible beneath the Metropolitan costume, allowing him to remain hidden from the public. When not performing his Metropolitan duties, he wears his Joso school uniform and an all-black suit at home. Kanade is shown to be callous towards others. He will take someone's life without a second thought. He has also been shown to shamelessly use his red arrow to manipulate others. He is highly intelligent and calculating. He posed as a hero of justice, fabricating a false story to deceive the media and other candidates, and lure them into a trap.

His wealthy upbringing has left him with an arrogant and sadistic personality. He has a particular aversion to anything ugly and loves only himself and his sister. He looks down on people and comes up with derogatory nicknames for other god candidates, for example, calling Hajime Sokotani a cockroach due to his low social status and ugly appearance, and admits to enjoying watching Hajime die. He also shamelessly threatens the young goddess he himself executed in public, urging her to beg louder for mercy in order to lure even more candidates into his trap.
