The young and charismatic ruler of the Empire, The Emperor is a boy manipulated by his prime minister, leading to a tragic downfall where he pilots an ultimate weapon and loses himself to its power.
The Emperor possesses a charisma befitting his title as the ruler of the Imperial Capital.
However, due to his youth, he is naive and easily influenced.
He places his complete and unwavering trust in Prime Minister Honest.
While not a complete puppet, he prioritizes Honest's opinions, unaware of the minister's corruption.
Under the influence of his Teigu's "Purge Mode," his mind is corrupted, turning him into a ruthless tyrant.
In this state, he indiscriminately slaughters everyone in his path, including his own people.
After his defeat, he shows deep remorse for the suffering he caused.
He faces his execution with a resolute and dignified attitude, accepting it as his final duty.
As the reigning Emperor, he is the official head of state, governing from the Imperial Capital.
Due to his young age, he relies heavily on the instructions and advice of Prime Minister Honest to handle political affairs.
The Emperor's power comes from piloting the Supreme Teigu, "Shikoutazer."
This colossal suit of armor possesses overwhelming destructive power, capable of wiping out entire armies.

This mode drives its user mad, turning them into an uncontrollable berserker who attacks friend and foe alike.

However, he was pushed back by Tatsumi, who attacked bravely without an ounce of fear.
The Tyrant's Rampage
