User blog:BigBadSquid/PE Proposal: Colorless King



If you thought the Snake of Clearing Eyes was a nasty body snatcher, then you haven't met the Colorless King yet.

What's the Work?
K Project, or just K for short, is a manga/anime about a technological Japan lead by kings based on colors, such as the Red Clan (HOMRA) and the Blue Clan (Specter 4) who are in a continuous battle against each other. The gangs then target ordinary high school student Yashiro Isana (or Shiro), as they believe him to be one responsible behind the murder of a HOMRA member addressing himself as the evilest king, a Colorless King.

Who is the Colorless King? What has he done?
The Colorless King is not Shiro himself, rather a body-snatching Yokai that possessed him the night of the murder just to cause a violent conflict between HOMRA and Specter 4 to do the hard work for him. It did this simply so the two gangs kill each other and leave the rest for the Colorless King, as his goal is to kill off all kings and rule the world under his tyrannical fist.

So let's start at the beginning. He was from the Colorless Clan, the seventh clan of kings. After the founder king Ichigen Miwa passed away, the Colorless King took the throne, to which he took great power as his ability granted him the power to jump between bodies and possess them. Then he came to Adolf K. Weissmann, the Silver King, who he told him he has an interest in him. Manipulating him, the Colorless King took possession of Weissman and pushed his past body containing the consciousness of Weissman off a blimp, laughing as he watches him fall. This body would ultimately become Shiro, having become amnesiac.

Taking Weissmann's blimp, the Himmelreich, to Specter 4's territory, he receives a call from the Blue King Reisi Munakata to land and make a negotiation. He ignores this command and waits for multiple people to close in on the blimp to question him before blowing it up, killing everyone except himself since Weissmann's powers give him immunity to explosions.

The Colorless King then takes possession of a male student from Ashinaka High School and uses a red telephone to call the Red King Mikoto Suoh, who is currently within a cell in the Scepter 4 headquarters. Revealing himself to be the one who killed Tatara Totsuka (the HOMRA member the Colorless King killed that night), he attempts to break Mikoto's mind so he can invade his mind and steal his power. He does this by threatening to rape Anna (a SEVEN-year-old in the HOMRA) and attempts to enter his body and "eat" his Aura. Mikoto's Aura takes the form of a lion and scares the Colorless King out back to his host.

Then when the HOMRA invade the high school to rescue Mikoto, the Colorless King takes possession of a HOMRA member and injures Reisi to make the member be killed by the Specter 4 members before taking possession of a Specter 4 member to take Anna hostage, still determined to rape and kill her. An explosion occurs and the Colorless King is sent flying.

Taking possession of Kukuri, Shiro's friend, the Colorless King stabs Yashiro, but the power of the Silver King revives Shiro as the possessed Kukuri runs off. Cornering the Colorless King, he reveals his plan to kill off all remaining kings, but Shiro, Kuroh, and Neko trick the Colorless King into possessing Shiro, where just before the Colorless King can take control of him, flies in front of the clashing Red and Blue Kings, sacrificing his life to kill off the Colorless King with him for good.

Mitigating Factors
Nope. All the Kings in the series have standards, but the Colorless King is solely driven by his desire to obtain the power of all the kings to claim the entire world in his hands, caring nothing about how many innocent lives he threatens to claim his powers.

There's only one concern I have about his mitigation; when he was still possessing Weissman's body, the Colorless King would perform dances with this strange masked woman who appeared to be limp. Even if you could call this a redeeming quality, he shows no pity in her "dying" in the blimp explosion.

Heinous Standards
The Kings and their clans cannot be blamed, as they are all under the manipulation of this little trickster weasel yokai. In fact, every villainous character in this series has at least one sympathetic trait to prevent from being despicable. The only characters who slightly come close are the Green King Nagare Hisui and the Grey King Iwafune, but both of them are anti-villains who only commit atrocities out of necessity. There's nothing to support the Colorless King, and there never was.

Final Verdict
I say Pure Evil fits this guy for tricking two gangs to kill one another to claim their territory for his own, and manipulating one of the leaders to becoming possessed with threats to RAPE a child on his team.
