¹Ban is 34 at the start of the series, but by the end of the anime, he is technically more than a thousand years old since he spent a long time traveling Purgatory .He has a strange habit of making singing tones while talking which he developed at a young age after he was adopted by Zhivago. Despite his selfish and greedy personality, he is also shown to be caring, which is shown when he rushed toward Elaine to save her. Thus, despite being a "bad person", Ban also can be heroic.
