New JIOR

The New JIOR (新生ジオール, Shinsei Jiōru) is a nation composed of students from the former JIOR who are forced to become independent as the forces of Dorssia and ARUS are chasing them to obtain the mecha Valvrave. [e 1] As the series progresses, it is revealed all the students were experimented from an early age to operate the machines and become immortals. [e 2]

Haruto Tokishima

Haruto Tokishima (時縞 ハルト, Tokishima Haruto) is a high school student who always tries to avoid conflict, claiming that fighting is not the best way to deal with issues. He is thus displayed as an extremely kind hearted individual. During the Dorssian invasion, his friend Shoko presumably gets struck by a Dorssian mech, urging him to seek revenge with the mysterious humanoid weapon called the Valvrave. [1] [e 3] After learning that Shoko survived, he chooses not to declare his feelings for her, deeming himself unfit to be with her as a result of the Valvrave's effect on him. [e 4] The Valvrave gives him a berserker state where he tries to bite other people and feed on their "Runes", their DNA. [e 5] This curse also gives him special regenerative capabilities that allow him to survive wounds that could be fatal to ordinary humans, as well as the ability to transfer his consciousness into another person's body, by biting a person's bare skin, leaving his own body lying unconscious until he returns to it. The more Haruto pilots the Valvrave, the more memories he loses with the loss of all leading him to his death. [e 6] Haruto's secret of his nature causes Shoko to sell him to Arus to negotiate for the lives of New JIOR students. [e 7] Nevertheless, Haruto realizes he still cherishes mankind and agrees to work with L-elf to build a world where everyone including humans and Magius can live in peace. [e 8] In revealing the truth behind the Magius, Haruto uses his last Runes in order to defeat Dorssia commander Cain Dressel. After L-elf admits that Haruto is his friend, he lightly taps L-elf's face, smiling to him as he dies. [e 9] He is voiced by Ryōta Ōsaka in Japanese.

L-elf

L-elf (エルエルフ, Eruerufu, L11 in German), whose real name is Michael, [e 2] is a secret agent of the Dorssian military.

L-elf is known in ARUS as the "One Man Army" for having killed almost 5000 soldiers single-handedly. He always carries around a photo of the Dorssian Princess Lieselotte who had saved his life when he was younger, and has feelings for her. [2] [e 10] During Dorssia's invasion to Jior he tries to kill Haruto but the Valvrave's curse causes Haruto to possess his body. [e 3] [e 4] He is considered a traitor by Dorssia due to the actions Haruto commits while in control of his body, and is effectively stranded on Module 77. While claiming that he intends to bring about a revolution in Dorssia, he tries to convince Haruto to become his ally. [e 1] Haruto accepts his offer and L-elf starts guiding the forces of New JIOR. [e 10] When going to the Earth, L-elf tries to save Lieselotte from Dorssia but she dies in the fight against them. [e 11] After learning Lieselotte was a Magius, L-elf agrees with Haruto to build a unified world where everyone including humans and Magius can live in peace. [e 8] In the final episode, he admits that Haruto is his friend just before the latter dies, he is later seen in the epilogue during Satomi and Takahi's wedding party wearing an imperial cloth.

[3] With the rest of the country under Dorssia's control and following ARUS's betrayal, she convinces the other students to establish the Sakimori Academy's module as an independent state called New JIOR, using the Valvrave as leverage against both superpowers. She is elected as the first Prime Minister of New JIOR. [e 12] After she finds out Haruto's secret, she sells L-Elf and him to ARUS to negotiate for their lives, as she no longer trusts him. [e 7] However, she quickly learns from Pino that the reason Haruto turned into a Kamitsuki was to avenge her presumed death back in Episode 1, bursting into tears upon the revelation. [e 8] She deeply grieves over Haruto's death, but still tries to look strong for the sake of her citizens. In the epilogue, she eventually becomes an immortal and replaces Haruto as the new pilot of Valvrave 01, and has had a 'Memorial Core' built, with statues of those who died to create their new home.

[4] After discovering the Valvrave hangar beneath Sakimori Academy, she excitedly pilots the Valvrave Four (coded VVVIV), to which she names "Carmilla", after being injected with the same substance as Haruto. [e 13] 200 years in the future Saki is still a Valvrave pilot fighting an unknown enemy and remembers her promise with Haruto to not give up no matter what.
