Mana Walker

Mana Walker is the adoptive father of Allen Walker, and the older brother of the 14th Noah. Though Mana's connection with the Noah is still unknown, there are strong indicators throughout the manga that suggest he may be the Millennium Earl. (*Who wrote this last sentence?! What are these "strong" indicators that suggest Mana may be the Earl "throughout" the manga? Please post your proof*)

Appearance
Mana's face is obscured during the series, so it is difficult to see his face. However, in one of Allen's dreams Mana is shown to be dressed up like a clown. (*He is seen as as clown in an actual memory as well. Mana was a circus performer and passed along the tricks of his trade to Allen.)

Personality
Mana seems to be quite a kind person, as he adopted Allen, who was abandoned by his biological parents for his deformed left arm when Allen was just an Infant. This shows that Mana has no prejudice against such things. Before his exorcism, Mana told Allen that he loved him.

However, after the death of the 14th Noah and prior to his own (On Christmas Eve), Mana was acting somewhat strange, as though he was losing it. Allen then was hit by the conflict of whether Mana truly loved him or just his brother, who was reincarnated within Allen. (*Okay, Mana did not die on Christmas Eve. It is not known exactly WHEN Mana died. Mana met Allen on Christmas Eve which is why Allen considers that his birthday now. Holy crap, seriously, who wrote this?! Did this person actually read the manga or watch the anime?!)

History
He dies not long after he meets up with and travels with Allen after forming a father/son-like relationship. Allen then calls upon the Earl, with promises to bring Mana back to life, Allen accepts and brings him back. The Earl commands the newly revived Mana to kill Allen, but his left arm activates for the first time and kills Mana's Akuma on its own accord after Mana saying he loves Allen causing Allen's hair to turn white from shock. Mana and Allen together created new symbols for music scores years ago. The symbols were used in the piano song that Allen played to save the Noah's Ark. The melody is inside Timcampy. "Soshite bouya ha nemuri ni tsuite. Ikizuku hai no naka no honou. Hitotsu, futatsu to. Ukabu fukurami itoshii yokogao. Daichi ni taruru ikusen no yume, yume. Gin no hitomi ni yuragu yoru ni. Umare ochita kagayaku omae iku oku no toshitsuki ga. Ikutsu inori wo tsuchi e kaeshitemo. Watashi ha inori tsuzukeru. Douka kono ko ni ai wo. Tsuinaida te ni kisu wo."

- The song in Japanese.

"And then the boy falls asleep. The flame inside the breathing ashes. One, then two. The floating swelling, the dear profile. Thousands of dreams, dreams, that pour onto the earth. On the night when the silver eyes swings. The shining you, who was born. No matter how many millions of years, return the prayers to Earth. I continue praying. Love for the last. Kiss for the joined hands."

- The song translated into English.

Synopsis

 * Mana has shown up in several of Allen's dreams and flashbacks, and he has only been mentioned in conversation to Howard Link. (*Sigh. Wrong again. Allen has talked about Mana to General Cross as well.)
 * Mana is most often seen wearing a top hat in Allen's flashbacks when not in his clown costume. (*This depends on whether you're talking about the manga or the anime. In the anime, yes, he's in 19th C English Victorian garb. In the manga, he's seen as a clown.)
 * Currently Allen is wondering if Mana had loved him, or his brother, the 14th, of whom was supposed to be revived through Allen.

Trivia

 * Despite of what little is seen of him, he seems to bare a resemblance to the human form of the Millennium Earl.
 * Mana is never seen alive, but has had his life referenced in the series. A trait he shares with several other Akuma.
