Power: Fireball (Dan En)
as he gets stronger. He has been shown to hide the fireballs in the
ground then control them remotely at a later time, or increase the
size of a single fireball to being even bigger than himself, and split it
apart into many smaller fireballs for a surprise attack.
Power: Fire Blade (En Jin)
- Human-wise, she is a kunoichi with a ponytail. She has shown the
ability to create one giant fireball instead of multiple small fireballs.
This fireball can also separate into numerous small fireballs.
Saiha
Power: Fire Blade (En Jin)
Flame Foundation: Eagle/Falcon
- Focuses on making Recca's fire arm blade unbreakable and cut anything.
- Human wise, he is a standard ninja with spiky hair
 |
| Saiha is at the middle. |
Homura
Power: Fire Whip/Strength (Ben En)
Flame Foundation: Snake
- Is the strength enhancement flame. Recca uses this with his close
combat fighting to be more effective. He usually does a thrust punch
with Homura visibly coiled and wrapped around Recca's hand and arm.
This is one of Recca's strongest attacks. Recca can also use Homura as a
flame whip.
- Human wise, he is a somewhat bald man who still managed to keep a
ponytail, who uses a whip enchanted with flame.
|
| Homura is at the right. |
Setsuna
Power: Fire Flash/Fire Spray (Shun En)
- Is the flash flame dragon. When Setsuna opens his eye, it creates a
bright red flare. If one looks into the eye, he will instantly combust
and the flames won't die until the target is completely incinerate.
However, Shun En is not as effective against a fellow fire user
(who have a natural resistance to flames)
- Human wise, he is blind with a blindfold, numerous blades attached
on one hand, and several human eyeballs hanging as a necklace.
Unlike the other dragons, he didn't enjoy being in Recca's body and
would kill him when the opportunity arose. However, Recca managed
to outwit him and forced him back to his body, whether he liked it or not.
Rui
Power: Fire Illusion (Gen En)
-
his enemy relive nightmares or make them live their worse fears,
effectively making her a mistress of illusions and hallucinations.
- Human wise, she was a beautiful kunoichi who is not afraid to show
her body to seduce her enemies. Her hobby is creating riddles.
Modoka
Power: Fire Barrier (Kekkai En)
Flame Foundation: Turtle
- The unbreakable barrier. Recca uses this to defend against attacks.
He can also use this to trap an enemy so they can't move or to stop
people from committing suicide.
- Human wise, he is chubby ninja that could create barriers.
However, he's rather sarcastic and vain.

| Modoka is at the left. |
Kokku
Power: Fire Beam (Hado En)
- Comes out and shoots a big flame beam. This is a powerful attack that
can take down almost anybody in one hit. This is Recca's second
strongest attack. Kokku has an exclusive power to pop out from Recca's
body as a human whenever he pleases, although he didn't abuse it.
- Human wise, he form is a short old man with sunglasses and scar on
his eye. He fits the 'Perverted Old Man' character stereotype, although
he's not into lolicon.
Oku/Resshin
Power: Transforms the dead into living flames like Kurei
Flame Foundation: Pheonix
- Can engulf his opponent and either turn their soul as part of Recca's
flame or completely disintegrate the soul. This is Recca's strongest
move. He uses this on Yanagi when she dies and makes her apart of
his flame.
- Resshin was in fact Ouka, the father of Recca and Kurei.
Yanagi (Flame Angel)
Power: Healing Flames
Using Resshin's powers of the phoenix flame, Recca absorbed Yanagi's soul in order to prevent her from being eaten by the Tendou Jigoku and thus became part of his flame (similar to Kurenai).
As a flame angel, her flames were the golden flames of immortality and healing, which can heal any wound, while also in this state she has the ability of immortality, which Recca receives since she is his flame.
Possessing the power of immortality, she can also take it away, as she 'healed' the souls absorbed by the Tendō Jigoku thereby setting them free and allowing the Tendō Jigoku to be defeated. Therefore, one can consider this Recca's strongest attack, as it can allow him to defeat or kill an immortal being. However, upon the defeat of Tendou Jigoku, Yanagi was released as a regular human being.
