Kamijou Touma
Classification: Esper
Affiliation: Academy City - A Certain High School
Ability: Level 0
Power: Imagine Breaker
The primary male protagonist of the series. Despite being classified as a Level 0 esper, his right hand possesses the uncanny ability to negate all forms of supernatural phenomena upon contact including magic, esper powers and - much to his chagrin - his own good luck. Touma is the type that acts before he thinks. He can never just sit around upon seeing someone in a pinch and will go to great lengths to protect or help the person. This he does at great risk to himself, which typically results in him being hospitalized. While he is an idealist for the hopes of other people, ironically he is cynical about himself possibly because of his powers.
