Shun Asanaga (浅永 瞬, Asanaga Shun)

Voiced by: Kensho Ono (Japanese); Aaron Dismuke (English)[7]

A 15-year old boy from the surface who was transported to Endora after touching the mysterious crystal he found in his father's company. His Warp Relic is a sword. Despite his inexperience, he is surprisingly skilled with his Warp Relic, as he managed to master its usage in such a short amount of time, which prompts Emilio to use him to complete his revenge. He and Emilio are often at odds, despite that he shows concern for him. Because he is from the surface he shouldn't be able to use a Warp Relic, so everyone was surprised that he even has one. It is possible that Shun's father may be aware of Endora's existence, in the first episode his outline and Delzaine's are seen together in front of the Adamas, while professor Asanaga was holding the crystal that pulled Shun to Endora. It is revealed that Shun is actually Delzaine's biological son and Emilio's cousin, and that he was stolen from Endora when he was just a baby by Professor Asanaga, who manipulated Emilio's father into bringing the Warp Particles to the surface before killing him. Shun was born with a weak body and succumbed to an outbreak in Endora. In an attempt to save his life, Delzaine gave him to Asanaga to be healed on the surface; but, Asanaga had no intention of returning the child and instead raised Shun as his own. He is the first character in the series whose Warp Relic evolved. Before Shun's father arrived in Endora, his wife was already expecting a child but there were complications during the pregnancy and the child was lost, so when Shun arrived, his mother had trouble sending him back to his birth home and, decided keep him and raise him. Even though he discovered the truth about himself, Shun still loves the parents who raised him, and considers them to be his true parents since he never knew his biological father. When Shun learned of his father's intentions in taking the Warp Particles from Endora, he could not agree with his plans, even though he understood them to some extent. In the end, Shun decides to return to the surface, believing that's where he truly belongs and with his father gone his mother had no one else.

He is often picking a fight with Shun, in spite of that he looks out for him when push comes to shove. At first Emilio only wanted revenge against Delzaine, but after witnessing the events that were happening in his kingdom, he began to realize how little he knew about his own world. He once looked up to his foster father until he discovered that he may have been responsible for the death of his biological father. After Delzaine finally dies, Emilio began to wonder if it was really him who killed his birth father. He later discovers that Shun's father stole Delzaine's child years ago and was actually the one responsible for his father's murder. Emilio reveals to Shun that they are actually biological cousins and that Delzaine was his real father. One of Emilio's earliest memories was him waiting for his cousin to get better so that they could play because he lived in a castle full of adults and considered Shun to be his first real friend.

The current king of Endora. For reasons unknown, he wants to revive the Babel, a contraption that once connected Endora to the surface. It's said that he murdered Emilio's father, the former king. He may have also had a relationship with Shun's father because in the first episode there was a scene where they are having a conversation in front of the Adamas and in professor Asanaga's hands is the crystal that pulled Shun into Endora. Delzaine may be aware of the phenomenon that is causing the Warp particles in Endora to decrease because the incident began to take place around the time he was named king. Delzaine died protecting Shun and Emilio without revealing his intentions, however he stared at Shun as though he recognized him. It is revealed that Delzaine was Shun's biological father. When professor Asanaga first arrived in Endora, Delzaine was the first to suspect his motives often warning his older brother, the former king and Emilio's biological father, to be wary of him, but he would not listen. Shun was dying of illness as a baby and seeing no other alternative to save his life, Delzaine had professor Asanaga take him to the surface to find a cure for his illness, but because of that he could not make a move on the professor. After Asanaga killed the former king, he refused to return Shun to Delzaine, stating that if he cared about his son he should get him himself.

He doesn't have a Warp Relic, but he does have all sorts of crazy inventions which he sometimes shows off.

He loves the idea of creating new inventions and discovering new scientific theories so much so that he sometimes gets happily lost in thought as he is trying to solve a complicated scientific problem.

He discovered that Alzerm was fascinated with the surface, and enticed him with stories about their technological prowess in order to gain his favor. Kazunobu also had a particular interest in the Warp Particles and Warp Relics in Endora, and used Alzerm to transfer the Warp Particles to the surface, so that he could study them, in exchange for restoring the ruins of Babel, with the false promise of a brighter future for Endora. When Shun was a baby, he fell sick from an outbreak and because he was born with a weak body his condition only worsened, Delzaine gave his son to the scientist in the hopes of curing his illness, but instead of returning Shun to his biological family, Asanaga decided to raise Shun himself, after his wife's initial pregnancy suffered complications, and the child died. Though he and Shun aren't related, Kazunobu considers him to be his "precious son", and wanted them to move together as a family. He revealed to Shun that his work with the Warp Particles was used to help better the lives of the people on the surface, build his enterprise, as well as enabled him to pay the medical bills for treating his son's deadly illness, and wanted Shun to carry on his work. However, when Shun refused to follow his adopted father's footsteps, after discovering his true nature, Kazunobu warned Shun not to interfere with his plans because he would be forced to kill him too.

Consumed with thoughts of the surface, Alzerm could think of nothing but of devising a way of going there, so that he could obtain supplies and new technologies from the other world, so much so that he valued the opinions of his surface world ally more than anyone else's, unaware that Asanaga was not his true friend, but rather he was using the king for his own gain. Once Alzerm had discovered this betrayal, it was too late, and Asanaga killed the king with his gun at the ruins of Babel.
