Plot

A boy named Tōru Kokonoe decides that after losing someone precious in a terrifying incident, he wants to become stronger and enrolls in a special school where people manifest their souls as weapons called Blaze. Tōru is capable of producing his own Blaze, but for some reason it manifests as a shield instead of a weapon.

Main characters

Tōru Kokonoe (九重 透流, Kokonoe Tōru)
Voiced by: Yoshitsugu Matsuoka[1]
Tōru Kokonoe is the male protagonist of Absolute Duo. Tōru's motive for joining Kouryou Academy stems from the death of his little sister, and wanting revenge and the chance to get stronger. He is dubbed an Irregular for having a Blaze which is not in the form of an offensive weapon. Despite having a defensive shield as a Blaze, Tōru has learnt to use a powerful punch attack to use in conjunction with his Blaze. As his name Tōru is pronounced in the same way as Thor in Japanese, Julie takes to calling him by the latter name.
