List of 07-Ghost chapters

The chapters of the manga series 07-Ghost are written and illustrated by Yuki Amemiya and Yukino Ichihara. The series focuses on Teito Klein, a former slave sent to attend the Barsburg Empire's military academy due to his ability to use Zaiphon, a type of supernatural power. The ability is rare, and thus highly prized. Teito is an amnesiac and doesn't remember anything of his origins - what he does learn of his past comes from his recurring and often traumatizing dreams.

The story begins with a young Teito remembering a memory from his past; walking through a place while the snow falls gently all around him. The memory feels nostalgic to him, but he finds that he can't remember anything about it. It later switches to present day, where a 15- to 16-year-old Teito is walking along the halls of the Military Academy, while others whisper behind his back about how he is the model student and that he used to be a slave. There is also quite a bit of tension because the exams are starting soon, and only 20 of the 500 students will pass. Teito overhears Shuuri Oak and his friends mocking him because of his shortness and is about to turn around to yell at them when another young student puts a hand on his shoulder, addressing him teasingly as 'young master Teito Klein'. Teito whirls around to backhand slap Mikage, stating that he knew it was him since they've been friends for a year already.[6] Mikage cheerfully suggests that they eat lunch together, even when Teito grudgingly tells him that if Mikage hangs out with him, the others will bully him, too.[7] The two decide to train their Zaiphon techniques, while Teito briefly explains the type of magic used in their world (it is covered in much more detail later on). Teito and Mikage begin the exam the next day and are doing well, until Teito is supposed to deal the killing blow to the condemned criminal that they are assigned to kill in order to pass; Teito tells him to surrender so that he doesn't have to kill him, but Ayanami intervenes and murders the criminal before he gets a chance to answer. When Mikage and Teito go back to their dorm room, Teito is still shaken after seeing the criminal killed; Mikage asks him if anything is wrong, and Teito talks about how he thinks of Mikage as the family he never had after Mikage says that they're best friends. Mikage then suggests that they make a promise that they will die together.[8] The next morning, Teito is going to hand in a late assignment when he overhears Ayanami talking about him. Suddenly, he has flashes of a memory where Ayanami is standing over his dead father, having just killed him. Teito suddenly seems to be possessed by something and rushes into the room, only to be imprisoned for attempting to kill Ayanami. Mikage comes to help him escape, only to find that Teito has managed to fight past the guards by himself. The two flee the building, but are cornered on a balcony. Teito pretends to hold Mikage hostage, threatening to kill him; however, he whispers to Mikage, "We'll always be best friends, right?" After Mikage replies "Of course," Teito jumps off the balcony onto a waiting hawkzile (a kind of flying motorcycle) to escape. While escaping the military, Teito falls of his hawksile and lands on a blonde Bishop name Frau. Frau and two other Bishops (Labrador and Castor) take him to the seventh district, also known as "God's Territory" where the military are forbidden to enter. The church harbors him, and heals his wounds. While his stay, Teito hears the story of the war ten years ago, where the kingdom of Raggs fell. He also hears rumors of the seven ghosts sent from heaven to defeat the death god Verloren.

Chief Ayanami chases Teito around the church in Mikage's body, after possessing him. Ayanami attaches a choker that seals all that could be seen as actions of disloyalty. However, Teito loses consciousness by trying to take his own life, and while unconscious, meets an angelic being sealed in his mind. He then is put under a possessed like state, and a consciousness other than his own takes over his body. Frau comes and rescues him before any serious damage is done, and Ayanami releases Mikage's body. Mikage vanishes, leaving Teito distraught. However, this fate becomes what drives Teito, and later becomes and inspiration to learn how to use a Bascule (a tool used to channel Zaiphon), and become a Bishop.

The series’ third entry leads Teito to the dark secrets kept by the man who raised him. Teito, an orphan and former slave, attends the swanky Barsburg Academy where, much to the amazement of his classmates, he aces the graduation exam. Things are looking up for the lonely orphan boy, until a chance meeting with the man who murdered his father changes his life forever. Fleeing to another empire, Teito is soon embroiled in a war between an evil god and seven ghosts. He’s also in possession of a mysterious new power that could have devastating repercussions for the future of the planet — and for Teito’s own past. While Teito tries to uncover the truth about the Father and the apocalyptic Pandora's box, Ayami's faithful follower, Kuroyuri, frames Frau for a crime so heinous it could mean Frau's execution.
