Appearance[]
Rei has short black hair with his bangs swept to the side of his face. He has black eyes that are normally half closed, when they are fully open it means he is hiding behind his mask. He wears the winter uniform of the high school he and Sakura go to all the time, which consists of a white T-shirt, a black long sleeved jacket, and black slacks. In addition he wears a ring on his left thumb to control his powers, and a glove over the same hand to further restrict himself. When he first appeared he wore a black long coat instead of his jacket.
When using Belphegor he gains a black long coat seemingly made of fire over his outfit that closely resembles the one he originally wore.
In his original lost form he went through no physical changes, however in his second he turns invisible, and must cover himself to be seen.
Personality[]
Ogami as Code:06
Oogami has shown many different sides to himself. One is where at school he acts like an ordinary high school student; polite, kind and somewhat shy. However, when he does his work for Eden he completely transforms into a ruthless killer, who only kills what he deems "evil". Despite that he claims to not care about people, he has shown signs that he does care for people and he shows this through unusual means, but nonetheless he truly does care for others well-being. He also shows interest in Sakurakouji Sakura as he is unable to burn her, which intrigues him greatly. Throughout the course of the story, he has slowly changed and become much closer with others, thanks to Sakura, and is even willing to protect her from his brother when he was attacking Yuuki's mansion, at the risk of his own life. In Chapter 92, Sakura's ideals about human life finally seem to get to Rei, when he spares Haruto, and instead places a fire in the assassin's chest that will kill him if he does wrong again. After the split within the Shibuya housemates, Rei is shown to be much more compassionate, if only towards a Sakura heartbroken over the destruction of the Shibuya mansion.
As mentioned before, Oogami is actually a kind person, it was also mentioned by Yuuki. In chapter 102, He went to so much trouble to save the cats, including Yuuki( in his lost form), from an explosion during one of Oogami's mission, even though he gave cold shoulders to Yuuki as he complements Oogami of being kind. It was the first time he met Yuuki too.
Oogami can also be quite clueless, especially about love, since he seemed oblivious to Sakura's feelings towards him and found her blush very intriguing. He thought it was a rare kind unique characteristic, finding all these all very new to him.
He has hugged Sakura on a few occasions and comforting her especially when she remembered that she killed him.
He has begun to change his views and opinions about killing as shown in chapter 127. He stated death brings nothing but regret and pity.
He was angry and sad when the soul of the Code: Emperor left his arm. When he saw him again he even hugged him.
After he regained his own special power it seemed as if he regained his true self and began displaying an improved persona. He seemed much more kind and seemed very happy as he battled Toki, as if he was enjoying himself. He even smiled.
