Youhei Takebe (武部 洋平 Takebe Yōhei?) is a former Jinki User who fought alongside several others and was a childhood friend of Riku. He inherited his Jinki core from his teacher, and later passed it onto Riku to save him from the infection, resulting in having Riku kill him before he completely became a Kanshu.
Background[]
Becoming a Jinki User[]
He was childhood friends with Riku, who he met in the hospital and it lasted throughout their elementary school days. He often hung out with Shizuru, Amane, and Riku. Sometime later in middle school, his entire class became Kanshu and he was injured and near death when his teacher gave him her Jinki core and he had to kill her. He soon dropped out of school and joined the annex division.
Meeting an Old Friend[]
He saves Riku from some thugs in the hospital and then took an attack for him from some Kanshu and destroyed them after urging Riku to close his eyes so that he wouldn't see him "Kensei". He then spent the rest of the day and night hunting down Kanshu, before calling Shizuru to check up on Riku. He soon met up with him in the park and learned that Riku remembered the Kanshu.
Death[]
When a Kanshu took Neene, he chased it down and witnessed Riku become a Kanshu and forced him to snap out of it. When Riku was taken by F.L.A.G. due to Riku becoming a Kanshu, with F.L.A.G. intention of using Riku as test subject, he went there with Rena and Neene to check Riku's condition, as well as delivering Neene back to Riku. He encountered Takao during Riku's outbreak and later, he asked Takao for a Jinki core to save Riku, but it enraged him to the point where the fighting escalated. Left with no other choice in middle of life and death, he gave his core to Riku in the same manner that his teacher did, desperately trying to save Riku. He was decapitated before he could become a complete Kanshu by Riku as one of his last wishes. It is known later that non-jinki users have forgotten about him.
