European Branch

"All exorcists go off to their missions from here. So, some people call this base "home"."

- Lenalee Lee

The European Branch (or simply Headquarters (本部, Honbu)), located in England, is one of the seven branches of the Black Order as well as the main branch, overseen by Branch Chief and Chief Officer Komui Lee and Chief Assistant Bridget Faye. Recently, Lenalee was replaced as the Chief Assistant by Bridget Faye. This is the base of all appointed Exorcists.

The headquarters were relocated here after the previous one underwent massive damages.

Organization
The European Branch follows the traditional organization that all branches of the Black Order follow, with a Branch Chief and Chief Assistant overseeing general operation and seven subdivisions functioning concurrently. In addition, though, because it is the main branch, Branch Chief Komui Lee also acts as the Chief Officer, and can give orders to the other six branches.

Special Duties
Being the main branch, the European Branch takes data from the other six branches, analyzes it and dispenses orders according to what they find. Their Science Division is presumed by the other branches to be the cream of the crop, as most other Science Division members (such as Rohfa, Rikei and Shifu) seem to aspire to transferring to the main branch Science Division.

Facility
The European Branch used to be located in the Former Headquarters.

After the attack of the Level 4 Akuma, though, the European Branch as relocated to a far less conspicuous-looking building on an island near London. The newer building seems to be larger than the last, as it now hosts two new sections of the Science Division and a much larger chamber for Hevlaska.

The facility is made of a main building that looks like a cathedral, a long building on the left and two smaller buildings on the right. The whole is surrounded by walls which are surrounded by the forst except for the water

way. In the building we can find some notable rooms: The island also hosts an unnamed town on the northeastern end, with the European Branch being located on the southwestern end. A stretch of forest and a land bridge separate the two locations.

Trivia

 * The European Branch's newest Headquarters strongly resembles the Parliamentary Palace of Westminster, which is built along the River Thames in London.
