WEISS KREUZ
SCHWARZ
This group of four deadly men acted as Reiji Takatori’s bodyguards for the first half of the series. Just before Reiji is defeated, it is revealed that Schwarz was sent by Estet to spy on Reiji and his activities. Even though Schwarz works for Estet, they don’t take kindly to being ordered around and have their own agenda.
CRAWFORD
Name: Brad Crawford
Nationality: American
Weapon: Gun
Age: 27
Ability: Premonition (Precognitive)
Despite appearances, Crawford is nobody’s pawn. His calm exterior allows others to rely on him, but Crawford has a habit of committing treason. He not only betrays Reiji Takatori, but also Estet. Crawford’s real goals are never fully revealed.
Crawford has the ability to see bits and pieces of the future. For this reason, his plans almost always work. Furthermore, his powers of premonition let him predict attacks and allow him to fight just as powerful as any member of Weiss.
SCHILDICH
Name: Schildich
Nationality: German
Weapon: Gun
Age: 22
Ability: Reading minds / Ability to move at high speeds
Schildich is a fan of mind games. He’ll read his victim’s minds and play with them before he kills them. He is the most outgoing member of Schwarz even though he hinds a lot of things. He’s the one that orchestrated Oka’s death and the final kidnapping of Sakura.
In addition, Schildich can move at very high speeds. This makes it virtually impossible to land a punch against him.
FARFARELLO
Name: Farfarello
Nationality: Irish
Real Name: Jei
Weapon: Knives
Age: 20
Ability: Can't feel physical pain
Farfarello is creepiest member of Schwarz. His body is covered with scars and he takes pleasure in pain. It appears that Farfarello can’t feel any physical pain at all, and even after being severely wounded, he will continue to fight.
Farfarello had a traumatic past. He grew up in a church with his parents and little sister, and was raised by a nun named Ruth. When Farfarello discovered that Ruth was his real mother, he snapped and murdered his parents and sister with his bare hands. He was so disturbed by these events, that he forgot that he was the one who committed them and blamed god.
Because Farfarello blames all his problems on god, he has become obsessed with the idea of killing god. Farfarello spends his time cutting flesh (his own and anyone else’s) and torturing people to get back at god.
When he gets too demonic, other Schwarz members hang him upside in a straight jacket in a dark room until he calms down.
NAGI
Name: Nagi Naoe
Nationality: Japanese
Weapon: --
Age: 15
Ability: Telekinesis
Nagi was abandoned as a child and shunned by society. At a young age, he swore to get revenge on the society that made him feel so lonely. Nagi was completely introverted, and it is possible that this is why he developed telekinetic powers. He can move things and even kill with only the simplest of thoughts.
Nagi’s position in Schwarz is similar to Omi’s in Weiss. Nagi is the technological expert that looks up information. However, Nagi never has to touch the computer as he uses his powers to type for him.
Nagi is also the kindest member of Schwarz. He doesn’t feel the need to kill or hurt other people, but he is filled with an unseen hatred.
As well, Nagi falls in love with Tot from Schreient. He takes it upon himself to make her happy and to keep her safe. When Tot is sad, Nagi will uses his powers to make cherry blossoms fly through the air just to see her smile again.
His love for her grows as the series progresses. When Nagi knows Schreient will be defeated, he begs Tot to quit so that her life will be spared. He is, however, too late and she is killed by Weiss. Nagi is so hurt by her death that he breaks down. His mental instability releases waves of energy from his telekinesis powers. He releases so much energy that somehow, miraculously, Tot’s life is saved.
