Profile

Masakado's Chosen is the past life of Flynn that lived prior to God's Plan. He was a member of the Counter-Demon Force and the holder of Masakado's Katana and as a result wielding him as one of the National Defense Divinities. He sacrificed his life to protect Tokyo from God's Plan by fusing with Masakado and becoming the firmament over Tokyo.

He appears identical to Flynn, having the same hairstyle and ponytail only wearing a black Demonica that was the standard uniform of the Counter-Demon Force rather than the garb of the Samurai that Flynn wears.[1]

Masakado's Chosen appears in the flashbacks Nanashi sees of his past life as Akira. His last moments are depicted, in which he arrives in Ginza and summons Masakado, slitting his own throat before placing Masakado on his head and fusing to become Masakado's Shadow. They are able to quickly shield Tokyo from God's Plan under the firmament but not before the explosion decapitates Masakado and leaving him dormant.

"The residents of the ravaged Tokyo take note of him not just because of his foreign outfit and long, feminine, tied-back hair, but also because he resembles a young member of the Counter-Demon Force who gave his life in the war 25 years ago. In other words, the protagonist is the reincarnation of the youth that borrowed the power and body of the demon Masakado and sacrificed himself to cover Tokyo with a protective ceiling."
