Schwarz's Allies
Yes, it's true. Even bad guys have friends. Well, maybe not friends, but Schwarz has plently of temporary allies. Crawford knows all the right words to win over the support of some seriously powerful figures in Japan (Weiß only knows how to kill them). So let's take a look at these victi--errr, we mean 'friends' of Schwarz. They just love using these powerful groups to increase their own power and position so that they can finally achieve their goal...the end of everything.
Takatori Reiji
Takatori is the main villan of the first season. Pretty much all the evil groups encountered could be trialed back to him. Schwarz served him as his bodyguards, and they did quite a good job. There were a couple of slip ups on their part, and he occasionaly got a tad angry at them...*cough* the gold club incident *cough*...but they were pretty much the best damn evil bodyguards you could get, so Takatori should have been a little more cautious with them. He was smart not to trust them, but he wasn't smart in letting them know that. After he voiced his distrust in them, they got a little peeved and I can't exactly say their business arrangement ended on a happy note (we won't spoil it for ya).
Esset
This might be a little confusing. Esset (I've seen them called 'SS' as well) is a big organization that both Schwarz and Schreient work for. Yes, Schwarz worked for Takatori, but he hired them from Esset, they kind of loaned them to him. So basically, Esset has more power and control over Schwarz than Takatori. They're mentioned a few times in the first season, but not until the first episode of the second season do you actually see them, and....they're old. They don't exactly seem that threatening, but they are like the evilest group in the world or something. And it's a huge organization, these three old people are just the leaders. They seem to have a better relationship with Schwarz than Takatori did, they trust them more. That's probably because they know how powerful they are and how dangerous it would be for Schwarz to doublecross them. Yep, these old people aren't as frail as they seem, they have a few tricks, and special powers, up their sleeves. Anyway, their main objective in the second season is to preform some sort of a ritual, and it involves Aya-chan (have I said too much ^_^?)Schreient
Schreient is the female assassin group that is also under the control of Esset, but are hopelessly devoted to Schwarz's boss' son, Takatori Masafumi. Since Takatori and Masafumi were not on the best of terms, neither were the two assassin groups. Nagi mentioned smething about Masafumi actually putting the girls together, even though their primary superior is Esset. Nagi also pointed out that Masafumi was trying to emulate them by forming Schreient. This made Schuldich and Farfarello laugh, they see Schreient as weak and nothing like at all like them. Farfarello dismisses them as nothing but mere puppets. However, in the second season the two teams no longer have individual bosses, and both work only for Esset. They have to be somewhat cordial to each other...Schuldich even winks at them ^_~! They still don't get along though, and any signs of wanting a truce that Crawford shows is just a ploy to get what they want from them. They'll always see Schreient as weaker and more vunerable.
Takatori Hirofumi
Hirofumi is another one of Takatori Reiji's sons. He works for his father and organizes a sick game of hunting down humans. Schuldich offered his help after watching a conversation between Hirofumi and Omi. He knew Omi was a problem for Hirofumi, and so he suggested he's take care of him. Hirofumi agrees and Schuldich proceeds to kidnap poor Omi and deliver him to Hirofumi. The rest of Weiß come to save Omi, but Schuldich's prepared for them. He protects Hirofumi from Aya's katana and lets hm make an easy escape. That's the only interaction between Schwarz and Hirofumi.
Tot
Yes, we already mentioned Schreient, but Tot is a bit more connected to Schwarz then the rest of the ladies, plus we like her, so she gets her own section *ta-da*! Tot is the youngest (age 17) member of Schreient and she would be the one with a mind like a child. She likes wearing little frilly things, carries around stuffed animals, fights with an umbrella, and refers to her boss, Takaotri Masafumi, as 'Papa.' Apparently umbrella-weilding crazy girls are a turn on for Nagi, cuz he falls for her. He tells her that he finds her very 'different,' which is true because she is quite odd. Plus, despite the fact that she's an assassin, she has a child-like innocence no one else he knows possesses, not even him, because his childhood was so traumatic. Anyway, Nagi puts the moves on her in his own, telekintic sort of way. To get the real details on these two, spoilers and everything, click here.::back to schwarz:: ::back to main::
