Character
Koko perceives the world as a series of calculations. Every step is aimed at profit, he associates with the strong and rejects the weak. His obsession with money is rooted in despair: due to his poor eyesight, he mistook Seishu Inui for his sister Akane in a smoking house and saved the wrong victim, leaving Akane severely burned. Koko tried to get money for an operation, but was too late—Akane died. Unable to accept reality, he became attached to Seishu as a substitute and a means of not completely collapsing.

Past
The Haitani brothers rose to fame by taking over the Roppongi district, defeating the largest gang, the Max Maniacs. Ran was part of the S-62 generation, was one of the founders of the Sky Force, and later became number two in the Rokuhara Tandai. After these groups disbanded, he ended up in Bonten.

Character
Ran is inscrutable and capricious. Independent, he obeys only those he respects: his brother, Rindō, Izana Kurokawa, and Kakucho. He's indifferent to everyone else—he doesn't shy away from dirty tricks in battle, using a baton and any weapon at hand. Refined: he loves Yves Saint Laurent and pastries. He smiles often, makes ironic remarks, and provokes. The only person he truly cares about is Rindō.

Appearance
Adult Ran is a tall (183 cm), slender man with a small face and purple, downcast eyes. His short hair is styled to the side with gel, alternating light purple and black. On the front of his neck is a tattoo of the Bonten emblem. A matching tattoo with his brother, Rindo, extends from the back of his head and collarbone to his foot.

Who is he in Bonten?

Past
Rindō is a member of the S-62 generation. He and Ran rose to fame by taking over the Roppongi district, defeating the largest gang, the Tokyo Max Maniacs. As a youth, Rindō was sent to a juvenile correctional facility for his brutality. He was one of the leaders of the Celestial Order, then number 3 in the Rokuhara Tandai. After these groups disbanded, he ended up in Bonten.

Character
Rindo is a sadist who enjoys fighting and calmly inflicts injuries of any severity. More reserved than his brother, he maintains a stoic demeanor, making sarcastic remarks and mocking his enemies. He harbors an insecurity about living in Ran's shadow—he hates being considered weaker. At the same time, he is proud of their partnership and their fighting reputation. His arrogance sometimes leads to reckless decisions in combat. His signature move is locking his opponent's joints and breaking their limbs.

Who is he in Bonten?
Haruchiyo is Bonten's number 2, Maika's right-hand man, and the only person in the organization whose power is second only to the leader.

Past
Before meeting Yasuhiro Muto, Haruchiyo was described as a "wild horse"—an unruly teenager constantly getting into trouble. Muto became an authority figure, and Haruchiyo followed him first to Toswa (vice captain of the 5th Division), then to the Skyworld. His younger sister is Senzu Kawagi. The scars on his face appeared in his youth, after which he began wearing a mask.

Character
Haruchiyo's main trait is his fanatical devotion to Maika, whom he considers his "king." Quiet and withdrawn in his youth, he becomes loud, outspoken, and ruthless in adulthood. He displays psychopathic tendencies: he takes sadistic pleasure in executing traitors, openly declaring that he is carrying out Maika's will. Drug use has exacerbated his instability. He is also a skilled manipulator—for a long time, he played Mucho's loyal subordinate, then killed him for betraying the "king."

Appearance
Adult Haruchiyo is a young man of average height (172 cm) with long, pink hair styled in a shoulder-length mullet. He has scars on either side of the corners of his lips, which he used to cover with a black mask in his youth; they are now exposed. He has four piercings in each ear, and a tattoo of Bonten on his right forearm. He wears a blue-violet business suit. His eyes are gray-blue, with long eyelashes.

Who is he in Bonten?
Manjiro Sano is the leader of Bonten, a brutal criminal organization. Essentially, Bonten is Mikey without the people who held him back. The same man who once gathered his friends for protection now becomes the source of their destruction.

Past
Maiki grew up without parents—his grandfather, older brother Shinichiro, and sister Emma took their place. Shinichiro founded the Black Dragons and was a role model for Maiki. In 2003, Maiki, along with Draken, Baji, Mitsuya, Pah-yan, and Kazutora, formed the Toswa gang, becoming its leader. But a series of losses—Shinichiro's death, Emma's death, Baji's—destroyed him from within. Without the people who served as his moral compass, Maiki descended into darkness.

Character
Mikey finally succumbs to his "dark urges." He becomes cold, emotionless, and indifferent to violence: he calmly accepts murder and is capable of raising his hand against his loved ones. At the same time, he recognizes the danger he poses and deliberately distances himself from his friends, knowing he has no control over his impulses. The charisma that made him a great leader remains—but now it works for destruction.

Appearance
In the final timeline, Mikey is a thin, emaciated man with short, white hair parted in the middle. On the back of his head is a tattoo of the Bonten symbol, similar in design to his adoptive brother Izana's earrings. He has deep, dark bags under his eyes. His gaze is empty and distant. Everything about him speaks of a man who hasn't slept or cared for himself in a long time.
