Personality[]

There are two sides...to science.
You're the face of the good side. Don't look so sad.
— Haruto to Ibara

Haruto is a serious and intelligent guy who is shown to be very tactical where he always proceed with plans ahead. He also doesn't fear killing because he thinks of them (the Coppelion) as being nothing more than puppets. This is shown when he shoots the white-cloaked guy with a neurotoxin bullet just to make him talk, and he really did intend to let him die if the white-cloaked guy didn't start speaking. It is shown that he cares for Ibara Naruse and might also have feelings for her.

History[]

Haruto 5 years old

Haruto 5 years old

Haruto is a senior 3rd year high school student like Ibara Naruse who is very knowledgeable in military and science, especially physics since he likes to stay in the laboratory testing experiments.

He is the first successful Coppelion created by and cloned from Dr. Coppelius, thus the code C-1.

Haruto first met Ibara when Dr. Coppelius introduced her to him back when they were 5 years old. He often tried to interact with her, but Ibara did nothing but zone off into a distance from the bench. One day, Haruto went to call Ibara who was sitting on the tree that it's time to go back because it was almost dinner time. After many attempts to call her, he ignores and starts to head back. He hearsa loud thud, turns back and discovered that Ibara had fell down from the tree, receiving heavy injuries.

Haruto panics and carries Ibara on his back, running back telling her not to die and to "continue living".

Abilities and Powers[]

Resurrection[]

Haruto has a special ability (特殊能力)  to "come back to life" (超再生 lit. super regeneration), or reviving himself  (甦る) from a Hydra (this creature is biologically immortal because of its regenerative ability) as stated by Kanon Ozu (and nod in agreement by Shion Ozu). She mentions that "there's no way Haruto could die, and even if he did he'll just revive back". He is seen revived after being shot by several bullets in the Musashino Railway Operation and after being burned heavily when they were evacuating the Shibuya 109 Shelter survivors. A few couple of days are needed for him to completely revive back and be able to move. However, he still feels all the pain one would receive from injuries normally even though he would revive back later. When the Cleaning Unit was chased by the fossiloids leaving Kanon knocked unconscious and severely injured, Haruto has given her some of his blood to her injuries because his blood contains some healing powers due to his super regeneration ability.

Haruto is skilled with the use of guns and explosives. He is always inventing new bombs and other equipment like tracking devices or electric mines. He was also the one who originally invented and created the Ether.

Relationships[]

Ibara Naruse[]

Both Haruto and Ibara have been friends and classmates since childhood where they have a strong friendship and tend to look out for one another at all times. Ibara has feelings for Haruto as seen after his return though she does not know this is love wondering why her heart was beating whenever she sees Haruto at one time. He reciprocates these feelings as shown on the last chapter of the manga wherein Haruto kisses Ibara himself before Ibara falls unconscious and it is seen that Ibara may have known this happened as seen when after she came back to Tokyo and both of them embrace each other. His feelings for Ibara may have shown even before they went to Tokyo and when Ibara needed to be revived, he did not hesitate to do mouth to mouth resuscitation.

Quotes[]

  • (To an unconscious Ibara Naruse) "What do you get out of putting your life on the line for that villain? Humans aren't worth saving!"
  • (To Oyakata Kurobe and Gennai Ishikawa) "The Coppelion are all clones. We never had parents. Those clones were genetically engineered to be immune to radiation, to have superhuman abilities...it was much like selective breeding. Despite that, most of the traits of our originals passed down to us unchanged. Especially our personalities and judgment skills."
  • (To Shion Ozu) "Why are you going this far, Shion Ozu? Is it for revenge..against the scientists who made us?
    They experimented on you, didn't they? All for our duties here in Tokyo. In the City of Death.
    Hate them as much as you like. But they'll still believe their actions were helping humanity."
  • (To Ibara) "Sheesh...I'll never understand why they chose you to be our representative. It's a miracle you've survived this long."
  • (To Ibara) "Kanon Ozu...Water is her weak point. If she isn't careful with her powers around water, she'll shock herself. And she's afraid of that."
  • (To Kanon Ozu) "They'll keep creating the same tragedies. They'll destroy themselves, even without your hand in it."
  • (To Kanon) "What you've said is correct, in theory..But my DNA just won't listen to reason."
  • (To Ibara) "I knew we couldn't trust humans. Reaching out to them is pointless."
  • (To Ibara and Tarou) "This is how humans are. They can't control science...But they can't live without it."
  • (To Ibara) "There are two sides...to science. You're the face of the good side. Don't look so sad."
  • (To Kurobe aiming at Kunikida) "He's a human. Just...forgive him."
  • (To Dr. Coppelius) "Long time no see... Dr. Coppelius"
  • (To Dr. Coppelius) "I must refuse, Dr. Coppelius. I'm not your doll."
  • (To a young Ibara) "Don't die! You gotta stay alive, Ibara Naruse!
    I'll protect you...! So stay alive!"
  • (To Taeko Nomura) "Keep your chin up. And think of what Naruse would do in a situation like this."
  • (To the Cleaning Unit members) "Let's move. It's time to clean up."
  • (To Dr. Coppelius) "I believe in the path she choose, because there will surely be a bright future waiting ahead"
  • (To Dr. Coppelius regarding about joining him) "We're not interested in a new era. We're still cleaning up here and now."

Etymology[]

  • The name Haruto means "distant, remote" (遥) (haru) and "person" (人) (to), which literally means "a far away person" or "a distant person" altogether.
  • Haruto's surname Kurosawa means "black, dark" (黒) (kuro) and "marsh" (澤) (sawa).
    • Part of the surname Sawa is a common family surname.

Trivia[]

  • Haruto's production code is C-1.
  • Haruto handed the 'aether' first to Ibara Naruse.
  • Haruto and Ibara were close to each other since schooldays.
  • Haruto always stays at the science room experimenting or wandering off walking around at the school grounds stated by Aoi.
  • Haruto didn't like human food at first so he injected himself with "nutrients" provided by the Coppelion unit (just like how Ibara initially did).
  • Haruto was actually the one who piloted the Locust airship and rescued Ibara and Aoi Fukasaku from Meisa Ichikawa when they were at the Roppongi Hills.
  • Haruto often received love letters from his Kouhai (underclassmen). When Ibara saw them, she said "you should write to your Kouhai once in a while" (with aslight irritate eyesight towards him), but Haruto doesn't have any interest in those letters at all as he keeps talking and thinking about the gadgets he invented.
    • From the Site Story (three special manga chapters that first published in the Weekly Young Magazine in Fall 2013, each chapter will be bundled with the first, third and fifth volume BD/DVD), Haruto often receives many love letters in his shoe locker, but he never has any interest in it because he is too busy inventing and never gave any replies back. There is a fanart that is based from this.
  • Haruto is very obsessive with science as it is seen that even without anything to write, he would just scribble various equations and formulas down a playground road.
  • Haruto likes to throw his grenades up and down just like a ball.
  • Haruto is called "bomb boy" (爆弾魔の兄ちゃん lit.devil bomb boy) by Oyakata Kurobe.
  • After Ibara said "I'm sorry for doubting you. Thanks for helping us!", Haruto responded with "Call me anytime. I'll come running to you.", implying that he cares a lot for Ibara and he's still keeping his word about protecting her.
  • Haruto absolutely has no idea Ibara has feelings for him. He sometimes wonders if Ibara hates him since she often runs or hide away from him after since they reunited. He does not know that Ibara blushes because of him, since at one point of the story, he came too close to Ibara's face and her face immediately blushes, he then asks her, "Your face is really red, are you having a fever?"
