Confused. I like Haku-men, but I wouldn't know the first thing about him. Well, besides he is Haku-men. xD |
Its extremely difficult to understand if you didn't complete the story mode but, I'll try a little
Spoiler for Long and complicated Hakumen spoiler:
When Jin chased after Ragna and Nu in one of the loops, he made it out barely alive.
He learned the truth of the Black Beast and the loops but its too late.
At this point Rachel appeared infront of him, offering him a chance to atone for his sins. His sin of taking Saya away and killing Ragna, which caused the whole cycle.
He accepted and his soul was removed from his broken body and put into the empty Susanoo Unit. The Susanoo Unit is one of the 3 Holy Treasures, the other 2 being Rachel's Tsukuyomi Unit, her satellite deflecting shield and Amaterasu Unit, which is the Sword possessed by Mu-12. They are based on a Japanese myth, but I'll not go into that.
With his soul implanted into the suit, he gives up his old self, to become a completely new being void of a past, he names himself Hakumen, which means 'White Mask'. Its a symbolism of himself becoming nothing, no longer human, his only purpose is to fufil the Susanoo Unit's purpose as the Anti-Murakumo Unit weapon. Susanoo Unit is created to destroy Murakumo Units, meaning Nu-13 and her sisters.
He was sent to the past to defeat the Black Beast, which is the combination of Ragna and Nu that he chased into the Cauldron as Jin.
I'm not sure if you can digest these, but there is a whole lot more to the story. Like why there has always been only one Hakumen in all the loops, what's the origin of the Susanoo Unit, how can Hakumen and Jin exist together, Hakumen's relation to Kokonoe etc.
I'll fill in if anyone wants to know more.
