Sun, is the tritagonist of Tatsuki Fujimoto's Fire Punch manga series serving as the main antagonist of its second half.
He was born with an electricity blessing that allowed him to temporarily stun Behemdolg soldiers. Sun is eventually saved by and becomes a friend of Agni alongside Neneto and Togata. While initially an innocent youth, following the ten year timeskip Sun devolves into a fanatical leader of the Agniist cult working with Sulya and Jack to run the cult before killing them both.
Appearance[]
Sun was a short 8 year old child with long blonde hair and sported a fur coat, eventually Suns legs are cut off by soldiers and he is given prosthetics to walk. Ten years later as a young man, Sun is of average height with a muscular build, rarely sporting a coat unless in the presence off Agniists.
Personality[]
Sun was an innocent and somewhat naive boy that wanted to bring warmth back into the world. Due to his religious background, Sun believed there would come a day God would save him and his villagers from their days of living in the cold and from Behemdolg slavers, believing that God to be Agni and soon after made multiple attempts to befriend him. Part of Sun's naivety allowed him to be tricked by Judah into becoming a firewood slave for Behemdolg and upon meeting Neneto did not realize the implications that the soldiers were intending on sexually abusing them as well. Sun however is aware that the state of the world is wrong and that people shouldn't be used as slaves for firewood as he clings to his image of Agni as the one who will save them all, when Agni's group rescues him his admiration for the man grows more.
Over time this admiration for Agni begins to cause the boy to come up with myths about Agni's power's as do the newly freed slaves form Agniism, with Togata suggesting Sun and the others are beginning to think like a religion by lying to each other about. Over the course of ten years this bodes true as following the destruction Of Judah's world tree, Sun with the help of former Behemdolg scientist Jack and Sulya begin to craft fake bible verses and more lies about Agniism and turn the religion into a cult while hiding the actual state of the world following the world tree's collapse. By the time Sun is 18 he and the Agniists have convinced their cult Judah is the source of all problems while hypocritically using her very same tactics and abuse of power seen by his silencing of Behemdolg recruit with swift punishment.

When talking with Neneto he admits he is merely acting and that Agni has in truth disserted the cult to live with Judah, and initial promises that despite the lies he wouldn't do anything to endanger the Agniists. However his fanatism for Agni turns to delusion quickly as he convinces himself that he is truly a God that's been testing his faith the entire time, going so far as to kill Jack and Sulya for "disrespecting" him completely disregarding the plan to capture Judah and make her into the world tree again.

Suns delusions ran so far he had abandoned the entire idea of turning Judah into a world tree opting to kill her and effectively doom humanity to bring them closer to Agni, even going so far as to nearly light Neneto on fire for telling his followers the truth on Agni. Ironically, upon actually being confronted by a blind raged Agni sun becomes confused finding him unrecognizable and disappointed opting to fight him to bring back the "real Agni" unable to see reality for what it is. This would ultimately be Sun's downfall as after electrocuting Agni and damaging his memories, he reaches out and touches Suns leg igniting him on fire.
History[]
Sun was born as blessed possessing an electricity type ability, according to Sulya conversation with Judah it is implied that like her Sun is a descendant of an evolved generation of humans that possessed multiple blessings. As a child Sun's village caught illnesses and in order to protect him his older brother came up with a lie that Sun was liability to get him to leave hoping he would survive on his own. Sun was eventually captured by Behemdolg soldiers and when he was being transported to be used as "firewood", a group of soldiers guarding the caravan decided to execute some of these slaves as examples for the others including Sun. It was at this moment that Agni confronted them.
Agni, killed the soldiers and rescued Sun and the prisoners in the process. Sun decided to follow Agni believing him to be a God like figure, after some time Sun collapsed from exhaustion and the cold, and Agni stays by his side to warm him up. The duo is then ambushed by a group of Behemdolg soldiers and are caught in an avalanche, but Agni manages to rescue the boy.
Shortly after, the two encountered a masked soldier with regenerative blessing who defeats Agni by cutting his head off and slowing his regeneration by continuously shooting him. This person revealed themself to be Judah. Agni's head is then transported to the capital and Sun was captured to be sold as slave once again.
While in captivity, he met an older girl named Neneto. The two discussed an escape plan using Sun's blessing to shock their captor once Neneto gave the signal, after meeting Jack, the man they were assigned to and discovering his true depraved intentions Sun manages shocks him and the two flee. As soon as they left the room however, Sun's legs were chopped off preventing his escape. The first captor, now woken up, used his blessing to stop the bleeding and told Sun that he would be used as fuel for his electricity blessing.
Sun ended up in a fuel production factory where countless of blessed humans were strapped to beds and extraction machines were hooked up to them. A force feeding machine is also attached to their necks to prevent them from starving themselves. There was no hope within the people who had now viewed themselves as just 'fuel' rather than human beings. However, this started to change when Sun's unwavering faith in Agni has led the others to believe in this god-person's existence and that he would come and save them all. This proved to be correct after Agni decided to free the prisoners during his raid of Behemdolg. Most prisoners including Sun and other people were set free and transported by the rebel group that appeared to aid Agni during the fight.
Everyone arrived back in a village and by that point, the seeds of the beliefs had turned into a seedling. With the appearance of the man on fire leading many former prisoners to believe in the existence of the fire man who is now known widely as 'Fire punch' and the religion called 'Agniism' was born. Ten years later, Sun becomes the de facto religious figure of Agniism, Having become so obsessed with Agni that he killed Jack and Sulya for not having faith in Agni completing disregarding the plan to turn Judah back into the world tree to warm and save humanity.
Eventually Sun attempts to light Neneto on fire and kill Judah himself but a blind raged Agni arrives, Sun becomes angered by his demon like appearance and thinks Agni is testing his devotion. He proceeds to brutally beat down Agni with his electrical powers. After Agni begins to heal and remembers Sun, Sun blows up his body just in case he was lying. As Sun celebrates his victory, believing he has passed the test his "God" has given to him, Agni touches Sun, which makes him burn alive. As he burns alive he yells Agni's name, before the fire finishes burning his face thus killing him.
