About this title

Synopsis

A Campione – a Godslayer – is a supreme ruler. Since he can kill a celestial being, he can therefore call on the sacrosanct, divine powers wielded by the gods. A Campione – a Godslayer – is a lord. Since the power to kill a deity is in his hands, he therefore looms over all mortals on Earth. A Campione – a Godslayer – is a devil. For all mortals who live in the world, none can hope to match their power. Kusanagi Godou, a 16-year-old boy who played in the senior league as catcher and fourth hitter when he was in Junior High. However, an injury put an end to his future in baseball. During the spring break of his third and last year in Junior High, he got involved in an adventure and ended up slaying one of the Heretic Gods, Verethragna. Thus, he became the youngest and seventh—Campione. Now that he is a Campione, a godslayer, the young Godou must defeat the troublemaking gods, with the help of his followers! (Source: MU)

The main character of the series and one of only 7 Campione. Originally a retired middle school baseball player, after his grandfather asked him to return a stone tablet to a friend in Sardinia named Lucretia Zola a series of events take place in which he kills the god Verethragna, a Persian god of Victory. Due to a curse, any god killed by a mortal, that mortal shall obtain the abilities of the killed god. These are the people known as Campione.

A member of "Bronze Black Cross," a magician organization based in Milan. Known as Erica's rival, she also holds the rank of Great Knight. Wielding her sword Il Maestro, her swordsmanship is on par with Erica; however, her true strength lies in Witchcraft. She has fairy-like beauty and a strong sense of duty. She falls for Godou and swears as a knight she will serve him for eternity. She also like to write romance novels in secret (though Erica knows and constantly blackmails her with them). Liliana was a member of the magical association descended from the Knights Templar called Bronze-Black Cross, and a childhood friend and rival of Erica's, the pair having met at the age of two, and both of them earning their knighthood at the age of twelve. As part of the tradition, shortly after earning their knighthood, both traveled to gain Magic swords for themselves at the Saint Gilardino Monastery outside of Florence, Italy. There, they first encountered Salvatore Doni, just after he had become a Campione. While traveling with him, they encountered the retired Great Knight Saint Raffaello, the only knight to gain two swords from the Monastery, and one of Doni's teachers.

Ena Seishuuin14 fan favorites
External profile
Ena has a very strange personality in that she seems relaxed about things of the modern world, but still has a slight naivite about her. She the type of person who acts on impulse and instinct, rather than her wits. Also a Hime-Miko like Yuri. She however is also a swordsman like Erica and Lily. Her specialty lies in Divine Possession, a skill allowing her body to be empowered by spirits or gods. The sword she carries, the Ama no Murakumo no Tsurugi, a sword more commonly known as the Kusunagi sword, is famous for being wielded by the god Susanoo and slaying the Yamata no Orochi. By borrowing power from it she can become very strong; however, a danger is that her spirit may be completely taken if the Divine Possession is too strong.
