The Crown of the Sinner has become one of the most pretentious novelties of 2011. The creation of Production IG was surprisingly deep, very thoughtful and multifaceted. Of course, given the fact that the director was Tetsuro Araki, considerable attention was paid to the relationship between the characters of the Crown of the Sinner.
Heroes are not too pompous, pathos and crystal kindness, reminding ordinary people with their problems and dreams. However, the protagonists share their world with an unknown kind of mystical forces, a terrifying virus, powerful corporations, while managing to live a simple life, which captures from the first episode.
A brief description of the series and facts
The series has a rating of R-17, it has enough violence and there are frank scenes. Critics praised the characters from the anime "Crown of the Sinner" as being too adult and too "natural", referring to the humanity and, at the same time, some rudeness of the characters. Naturally, you shouldn’t watch anime until 17-18 years old. Meanwhile, “Crown of the Sinner” is by no means an action movie, but a tragedy with a thoughtful plot and dramatic production.
However, those who are for the abundance of violence and conflict in the series will also have something to see. The project was broadcast from 2011 to 2012. In addition to the 7-volume manga with the same name, there is also a game in a similar setting - Guilty Crown: Lost Christams, which was released after the completion of the main story. It belongs to the genre of "visual short stories" and is available to players from 15 years old. The characters of "Crown of the Sinner" are completely completed, as, in fact, directly the plot itself.
Hoods from the plot
At the center of the story is Japan. 10 years before the events described in the first season, the country was overwhelmed by an epidemic of an unknown virus, which killed most of the population. The chronology of the main events originates in 2039. The main character named Xu Oma has the power to create weapons from the carrier. In practice, this looks like the materialization of a specific tool directly from a person. He meets the girl Inori, who is part of the Undertakers partisan group, whose task is to counteract the corporation, which holds control over the remains of the state.
The setting turned out pretty gloomy. In addition to the fact that the Apocalypse virus actually destroyed the Japanese government, the corporation has long seized power in the country and controls the distribution of resources. There are strange genetic experiments, private laboratories that study the influence of the virus, numerous armed groups and other things that are funded by companies. The characters of Crown of the Sinner match the whole world, sometimes cynical and tough, which only adds some sharpness to the series.
Void Genome, Void and Virus
The genome of emptiness is a special strength of the protagonist, which has a genetic nature. Allows you to isolate Void from a person - a spiritual weapon. It can take various forms, and also significantly depends on the will of the carrier, which determines the strength of the weapon in the end. So, for example, the close companion of the protagonist in the invented classification of Voidov received F, and Inari wields a sword of terrifying power and could lead the table. If the carrier has survived and mastered the Void Genome, then a repeated experiment will most likely kill it. However, the protagonist agrees to this and voluntarily absorbs both Voids and the virus.
Xu Oma
Tops the list of Sinner's Crown characters. He is in class 2A of a school for high school students, at the time of the story he is 17 years old. It looks like a quiet and calm brown-haired man with sad brown eyes. At first, he positioned himself exclusively as a hermit, had an interest only in study and the school club. He is very attached to his childhood friend, whose death turned the hero into a ruthless killer, the “Prince of Voids”.
He began to change as a person when he decided to save Inari from his pursuers, knowing that this threatens him with major troubles. For a long time he was an outcast among the partisans, since they considered his entry a whim. After the loss of his right hand and his strength, he finally took responsibility for the whole world, withstood it, and absorbed the virus, as well as the forces of the Voids. Characters, the names of the "Crown of Sinners" have much in common. So, for example, the protagonist 10 years ago lost his sister, whom he remembers very poorly, and was familiar with the head of Undertakers.
Oma Kurosu and Haruka Kurosu
Parents of the protagonist. They were engaged in the study of the virus, as well as the "first stone" from which the spread began. The precedent was due to the fact that sister Xu Man cut herself when she went to her parents. They died during Last Christmas, as the first day of the epidemic was later called. However, the main character himself thought so. As it turned out later, the father was killed by the head of the company GHQ Keido, because he advocated limiting and eliminating the virus as such.
Mana oma
Sister of the protagonist. She looked like a smiling blonde with pink eyes. She became the first person to be infected with the Apocalypse virus, receiving along with him the power of Void control. Particles of her body led to the formation of weapons in other people. Used Void Xu in order to regain the lost. Died, but later resurrected in an artificially created body (Ignori). He has a platonic attraction to his brother, which he in every possible way limits and reproaches. After Xu again refused to marry Mane, she ordered him to be killed.
Inori Yuzurikha
Member of the youth pop group EGOIST. It is an artificially created person, in fact a container for Mana. It was accidentally released by the head of Undertakers, for which Ignori is very grateful to him. Due to the blood transfusion between her and Guy, he, in principle, is still alive, since he has long been infected with the virus. He has conflicting feelings for the protagonist. At first he does not like, and sometimes despises him, which leads to separation. Later, he again encounters Xu and already falls in love with him. After Mana woke up, she used all her will to prove herself and help the main character.
In the photo of the anime "Crown of the Sinner," the protagonist holds Void. Probably next to him is Ignori, as fans are counting on a favorable ending for the two. There are many theories regarding the ending, but the viewer / reader will decide what to believe in him.
