While riding the bus home one night, Sakura Sakurakōji sees a boy seemingly burning people to death with blue flames in the park.

The next day at school a new transfer student is assigned to her class and it turns out to be the same boy she saw in the park, Code:Breaker 06 Rei Ōgami. Even though she questions him, Ōgami is able to provide a sound alibi for his actions, though not convincing Sakura. After school, while lamenting the killing of a homeless man in the park by the G-Falcon street gang, Sakura meets Ōgami where they have a talk about what it means to judge the actions of criminals. The next day, while visiting a stray dog in the park, Sakura witnesses the G-Falcon gang attacking another person and intervenes. She is able to hold them off with her martial arts until getting stunned with a Taser. The dog also tries to protect Sakura, but the gang members severely injure it. Just when Sakura is about to be killed, Ōgami shows up and kills the dog, who he deemed was beyond saving, much to Sakura's horror. He then turns to the gang members and presents an ultimatum - turn themselves in or die. They then attack Ōgami, choosing the second option.

However she still is not able to accept that he can commit such acts without any emotional response. Ōgami explains to her the nature of his being as a Code:Breaker, which is one who passes judgement on evildoers via means that would be considered "evil" to the rest of the world. Ōgami then tries to burn Sakura, who flees from fright. However, he does state that he will kill anyone with whom she confides his secret, causing Sakura to also make sure that he does not kill any more people by keeping an eye on him.

On their way to school, Sakura and Ōgami run into Code:Breaker 05 Rui "Prince" Hachiōji, who gives Ōgami orders to protect Sakura. At school, the class is acting strangely, which causes Ōgami to suspect that Sakura has exposed his secret as a Code:Breaker. However, it turns out that the class was actually preparing a welcome party for Ōgami. At the same time, Toki is seen collapsing in pain in an alley someplace, and the Prime Minister is informed that a total of 43 agents have gone missing in search of Hitomi. Back at the party, the school is attacked by the 43 missing agents, whose dead bodies have been reanimated through the use of Hitomi's power.

When Sakura bring Yūki, Heike and Kanda there, they are welcomed by her father Gōtoku Sakurakōji, head of the highly respected yakuza clan called the Kizakura. After her cosplaying mother Yuki Sakurakōji brings them to the guesthouse, it is revealed that Toki, who is already there, is in his Lost Form called age regression, which explains his childlike appearance. While Ōgami is resting, the others have a feast together. At night, Heike informs Toki that Hitomi might be targeting both Ōgami and Sakura, but has no idea why. The next morning, Rui is ordered to go to Sakura's house to provide support for both Ōgami and Toki. When Hitomi raids Sakura's house in order to kidnap Sakura, the Code:Breakers do their best to fight back against his electrical attacks. Hitomi then unleashes his full power against them, but Sakura jumps in front of his attack and is surprisingly unharmed.

Ōgami is explained that Gōtoku and Yuki adopted Sakura as a child after finding her outside on their doorstep one night with blood splattered all over her. Meanwhile, Yūki and Rui reminisce about when Hitomi used to be good. When Toki returns, Sakura and the other Code:Breakers head out in search of Hitomi and the Prime Minister. At school, Kanda meets with several other faculty members, all of whom work for Eden as Code:Breakers supporters. Since Kanda is a former subordinate of Hitomi, the plan is for her to use any possible remaining trust to kill Hitomi. After Rui meets with Heike at a bridge, he attacks her for figuring out that he is a part of Hitomi's scheme. Yūki, as Rui tries to keep the bridge from collapsing, witnesses Heike attack her from afar. Heike then appears to Sakura and tricks her into following him, leading her directly to Hitomi's hideout with the Prime Minister taken hostage.

However, Ōgami is stopped by Kanda, who is under Hitomi's electrical control, yet Sakura eventually prevents Ōgami from killing Kanda. Hitomi shows his clock collection on the wall, each stopped at a time when a former Code:Breaker was killed. Hitomi plans to execute the Prime Minister, but he first bombs the city full of civilians as a spectacle of exposing Code:Breakers, in order to recognize them as great heroes rather than dangerous outcasts. Ōgami disagrees with this cause and burns all the clocks, but as Ōgami proceeds to attack Hitomi, Yukihina arrives and intervenes, taking the Prime Minister with him. Although Ōgami is unable to do anything since his flames cannot melt Yukihina's ice, Toki arrives just in time to save Ōgami and Sakura from a barrage of ice.

Heike promoted Hitomi as the new Code:Breaker 05, but Hitomi was greatly troubled by his partner's death. Six years later, being assigned to take out a terrorist coupe of supernaturals, Hitomi, as Code:Breaker 03, is distraught when the rest of his group except Hitomi died during the mission, and only the leader rogue supernatural managed to escape. Hitomi, explaining to Heike that Code:Breaker 06 at that time was killed by her own powers, requested him to investigate upon the matter. With Hitomi promoted to Code:Breaker 01, he was tasked to train the recruited Code:Breakers (Yūki, Toki, Rui and Ōgami), initiating them as Code:Breakers after their individual training sessions. However, Hitomi took concern for Ōgami's primary focus of eliminating evil without thought of any consequences. During a rescue mission with Ōgami and Toki, Hitomi is seen carrying a child, which was the real objective of the rescue mission. Hitomi later told Ōgami that their purpose should be protecting the powerless and not simply killing the wicked. On another job with the other Code:Breakers, Hitomi finally killed the leader rogue supernatural to avenge the deaths of his former comrades. Heike later informed Hitomi that the Code:Breakers could die if they overuse their own powers numerous times, which was something Eden had kept them from knowing. Although Hitomi failed to reveal this to Ōgami, he silently vowed to get revenge on Eden. In the present, Hitomi announces to the public on Sky Tower that he will kill the Prime Minister and 50,000 other civilians across Japan. | |||

Ōgami arrives at Sky Tower first to rescue Sakura, but Hitomi catches him and engages him in an intense battle. Ōgami's blues flames are overwhelmed by Hitomi's electricity as a result. As Sakura manages to free herself, Hitomi reveals to them that the Prime Minister attempted to have Hitomi killed in order to prevent him from exposing the Code:Breakers. Hitomi then states his desire to make a world where people with special abilities can live happy lives freely, not as government dogs. Toki and Kanda are stopped by Heike, who faces Toki in a fierce duel. The Japan government and the Kizakura begin to isolate locations with bombs, however they are short on personnel.

Ōgami denies Hitomi's offer join him, promising to protect the innocent until the very end. However, Ōgami goes into his Lost Form when he tries to attack Hitomi once more, but Sakura tries to protect him from Hitomi, who grabs her by the throat. Elsewhere, Gōtoku and some Kizakura members approach a van broadcasting the signal for detonating bombs, but two boys with special abilities exit the van and begin attacking the group. As the timer reaches to zero, no detonation occurs. This is because Yūki found and destroyed the van, thanks to Heike, who also told Yūki where the research facility housing the children is located. Yūki arrives to help Rui, but Yukihina flees. Heike confronts Hitomi, believing that the plan has been dismantled. However, Hitomi reveals that he chose Sky Tower as a last resort in order to use his powers to detonate all the bombs throughout Japan. Toki finally rescues his father after threatening to kill him. Just as Hitomi is about to play his final trump card, Sky Tower is covered in Rui's shadow ability and the rest of the Code:Breakers arrive to stop Hitomi, who continues to rationalize his cause. Ōgami then reenters the fight, removing his thumb ring, which causes his power to rise exponentially. | |||

Hitomi is reaching his Code:End as his own powers begin to attack him. Hitomi, still wanting to continue his plan, is beaten back by Ōgami.

However, the Prime Minister appears and says otherwise, which enrages Hitomi. The Code:Breakers manages to stop him from killing the Prime Minister and Hitomi finally reaches his Code:End and dies in the arms of Ōgami, who leaves after justifying that Hitomi got what he deserved. Toki overhears the public crediting the police department for disabling the bombs and killing Hitomi. Later, Heike and the Prime Minister discuss that they succeeded in having Ōgami battle Hitomi to draw out his true power, which they are curious if this power will fare against the "Seekee". They would use Sakura to be with Ōgami to extinguish his flames if ever he ever goes out of control. The Prime Minister coughs up blood when an electrical spark shocks his body. Sakura individually says farewell to Yūki, Rui and Toki, who each are assigned missions of their own, mentioning that Ōgami has already left as well. As Sakura returns to her normal life, Ōgami goes on a mission with Kanda at an airport, battling a man with the special ability of wind. |
