First of the Super Saturday specials is Flame of Recca character ranking, my aim today is to post of much content as possible by midnight British time so lets get started.

Flame of Recca has been a personal favourite for many years but how do the leads rank?
Recca looking back suffers from chronic shonen hero syndrome and takes most of the series to really develop, he has moments where he can show devious moments and some of his more noble acts do earn him the hero title but yeah, I've still seen this all before.
Yanagi suffers from chronic wilting waifu syndrome at times but her bravery really pulls her through the story and you find she's braver than the rest of the team.
Domon suffers from chronic big dumb heavy character syndrome but has often displayed some of the more surprising victories in the series showing that his will power is often more powerful than any form of intelligence.
Fuko suffers fron chronic bad girl syndrome, my biggest complaint about Fuko is that she never seems to learn, getting herself trapped, mind controlled, being gullible enough to be tricked into getting defeated, forgetting that her power has limits and despite being the most capable female of the series, she gets rescued more times than Yanagi!
Tokiya suffers from chronic edgy rival syndrome, his start as the walking pretty boy of revenge I didn't like too much, when he started to let down his barrier and come to terms with the truth he developed into one of the best characters of the series.
Koganei suffers from chronic tag-a-long kid syndrome, his early naivety made him difficult to like and you get the sense that he would back stab the team but he does grow on you and he has the most interesting weapon ever created in an anime.

Recca Hanabishi - 7.0/10
Yanagi Sakoshita - 7.9/10
Domon Ishijima - 8.2/10
Fuko Kirisawa - 5.3/10
Tokiya Mikagami - 8.6/10
Kaoru Koganei - 7.9/10
