What is a fanlisting?

A fanlisting, according to TheFanlistings.org, the original webdirectory for fanlistings, is:

"..simply an online listing of fans of a subject, such as a TV show, actor, or musician, that is created by an individual and open for fans from around the world to join. There are no costs, and the only requirements to join a fanlisting are your name and country. Fanlistings do not have to be large sites (although some are) - they are just a place where you can have your name listed along with other fans of the same subject."

What is "CODE: BREAKER"?

"CODE BREAKER" is the latest manga of the talented mangaka Akimine Kamijyo, author of the successful "Samurai Deeper Kyo" and the unlucky "Shirogane no Karasu". It is serialized on the weekly magazine "Shounen Magazine", published by Kodansha.

Sakura Sakurakouji is an high-school girl who, while riding the bus one day, witnesses an odd and shocking event: some people are burning up in a blue flame while a boy, most likely of her age, stands among them with a cold look on his face. The day after, Sakura comes back in that place to verify, but she finds no evidence and no corpse, and the police seems to know nothing about what happened, considering what happened only a little fire. and not believing in her words. When she arrives at school, she finds out that, from that moment on, she will have a new schoolmate: Oogami Rei, the same boy she witness among the blue flames the day before, who oddly wears a glove on his left hand. What is the secret that Rei hides?



[ATTENTION!! SOME SPOILERS FROM HERE ON]

Who is Sakura?

The main character (the story is told from Sakura's perspective but her influence on the plot is bare minimal despite her efforts), Sakura, is thought of as cute and helpless by boys who think they should protect her, but she's actually a martial arts expert and turns down guys who ask her out because they don't know the real her. Prior to the storyline, she found an old dog whose homeless owner had died a few months before the start of the story. She attempts to befriend the dog whom she promptly names "Dog" ( 「犬」 , "Inu") . Her attempts are fruitless until Oogami comes. She is immune to Rei's fire and cannot be burned for reasons unknown which strongly draws the interest of the Code:Breaker organization leading her to be dubbed as a "Rare Kind ( 珍種 , Chinshu) ". Later through the story she is able to dispel other Code:Breakers' abilities, leading one to believe that her ability is that she negates the abilities of others, and together with her fighting skills, this makes Sakura a formidable force against other Code:Breakers and Re-Codes. She also seems to have a superior sense of smell, able to tell the real Yuuki from the fake by his smell, tell it's Ren in a costume, and even smell someone's personality. Sakura disagrees strongly with Oogami regarding his views on people, specifically criminals, and that they are trash who need to die. It is later revealed that she is the daughter to the most respected head of the yakuza. After the fight with Haruto, she tells Rei that she was adopted by her parents when he tries to find albums of before she was 5. She was spared by Oogami because of her identity as a "rare kind". She cannot be affected by Oogami's flame at all and by hugging Kanda, she was able to cancel out Hitomi's electric mind control. She managed to completely reverse Yukihina's "Eternity Zero" although it used up all her power. Like the Code:Breakers, if she uses too much of her ability, she will revert to the size of a doll. Hitomi has hidden a key that the Re:Codes are looking for with "Puppy" ( 「子犬」 , "Koinu") . After being kidnapped by "The one being Sought", she now has his tattoo on the back of her neck, something that greatly upsets Rei. She also remembers that she met "The one being Sought" back with she was a child and give the key to him, which means the key is orginally Sakura's.

Why "Shaken Idealist"?

I chose this title because the meeting with Rei and the involvement in his doings, little by little shakes Sakura's beliefs. For now, she is still being attached to her point of view, even if, having faced some of the most cruel and lowest human beings, and having heard the hate and the resentment of the victims crying out for justice and revenge, she begins to wonder if killing the criminals is the only way.
