Description
Personality
Yahiro Samukawa presents a complex and multifaceted personality. Initially appearing outgoing and considerate, he masks a deeply cynical and ruthless nature driven by a desperate need to secure treatment for his ailing younger brother. This facade of sociability hides a willingness to engage in morally questionable actions, including dealing in the dangerous drug Normagene and betraying his friend Shu to achieve his goals. He justifies his actions through a bleak worldview, refusing to express remorse for his choices. Beneath the surface of his calculated actions lies a protective, albeit conflicted, affection for his brother. His Void, manifesting as a pair of shears capable of severing life, reflects his subconscious perception of Jun as a burden, a feeling that ultimately contributes to his internal struggle and complex emotional landscape. While outwardly cold and calculating, Yahiro's actions are ultimately motivated by a desperate love for his brother, highlighting the internal conflict between his survival instincts and his moral compass.
Abilities
Yahiro Samukawa's primary ability stems from his Void, a manifestation of his inner conflicts and desires. His Void takes the form of a pair of enhanced shears. The ability of these shears is to sever a person's "life string," a visual representation akin to a DNA strand, effectively ending their life. This power is directly linked to his deep-seated resentment and perceived burden of caring for his ill brother, Jun. The Void's power is shown to be lethal, capable of instantly killing a person. There is no indication of other abilities or power scaling beyond this core ability.
