History/Personality/Plans/etc.
Character History: When Nagi was a very small child, he killed his mother and managed to block the incident from his memory. Since it's mentioned that the trauma of remembering could break him, her death was likely an accident tied to his strong telekinesis. People didn't like him because of that power and he probably spent some time alone on his own before ending up at an orphanage run by a nun who seemed nice enough. She was really brainwashing the children who kept returning to her into killing criminals and taking themselves out at all. He didn't know this, of course, and ended up hating a group of assassins called Weiss, especially one Ken Hidaka, for killing her. In his rage afterwards, he completely destroyed the church he'd stayed at and ended up going with Brad Crawford to control his power and work for a group called Eszett as part of Schwarz, some of their best members.
While working with Schwarz, he met and fell for Tot, a member of yet another four person group, this one called Schrient. Schwarz thought he was stupid for letting those feelings interfere with his plans, but he didn't care. He tried asking her not to fight because if she died, he wouldn't be able to bring her back - that would use enough power to kill him. Nagi didn't have to worry about the enemy killing her; one of his teammates did it instead. He went a little nuts afterwards, destroying the entire building they were in and apparently killing himself as well. But somehow, Tot came back to life and he wasn't dead either. He just got caught in yet another collapse at the end of the first season and went to Germany with Schwarz.
The guy who killed Tot ended up falling in love with a witch and running off with her. Nagi helps out in the battle to keep them safe because they're still a team despite everything. At some point after that, Nagi ends up leaving Schwarz for reasons not fully explained in canon to guard a former Weiss member who changed sides to give orders rather than take them.

Character Personality: Nagi hates pretty much everyone with good reason. As a child, he was tormented, likely because of his telekinetic abilities, and swore revenge on the world for being cruel to him. Adding to that is the fact that decent things in his life get taken from him violently - first, the nun who took him in was murdered in front of him by Weiss, causing him to become part of Schwarz in the first place and then Tot, the only person he ever appears to care about, is killed by Farfarello. He managed to bring her back, nearly dying in the process, so she's obviously very important to him in a way that nobody else approaches.
He's probably never going to like or trust people that he doesn't already know, though he's capable of acting like he does since he's the least of all the evil that is Schwarz, and thinks of himself as better than them because of his power. Being the least of four evils doesn't make him very good, though. His moral compass is just as twisted as the other members, likely because Eszett in general and Schwarz in particular shaped him to be that way after he was taken in; seeing Sister die was a shock to him and she said that he'd blacked out the memory of killing his mother, implying that he likely had morals at one point.. He has no qualms about using his powers for fighting and killing his opponents, although he repeatedly expresses his dislike of Schuldig's indirect methods of manipulating people's minds and likely prefers to go after things more heads-on.
Nagi is called Prodigy both because of his power compared to his age and his general intelligence - it takes a fairly smart individual to be able to hack Weiss's computer systems where everyone else failed, after all.
He should hate Farfarello for killing Tot and Crawford and Schuldig for constantly questioning and mocking his feelings for her in the first place, but the Schwarz drama CD proves that he doesn't hate them as much as he does the rest of the world. Nagi is the one who first recognizes Farfarello's feelings for Sally as love and fights with the rest of Schwarz to keep him from being killed by the people who want to take Sally back. He could have argued with the decision to fight, or mocked it as Schuldig did, but instead he answers the enemy taunting their decision as foolish by saying, "It isn't foolish! Fighting for your teammates is only natural!" and helps both Schuldig and Farfarello out. His actions may have simply been because of Crawford's orders, but that outburst isn't something that a generally quiet person like Nagi would say unless it were true and what he believed in.
Nagi hates Weiss, Ken in particular, for killing Sister Amamiya. If it weren't for them, he never would have had to leave with Crawford, a man he was scared of, as Sister told Crawford when they met in the Holy Children CD. That CD ends with him saying that he'll never forgive Ken and he'll kill Weiss. He should still hate them, maybe even more than he did at first because they interfered with Schwarz's plans at the end of Kapital. But at some point, that changes because he leaves Schwarz and goes to become Omi/Mamoru Takatori's bodyguard. No canon reason is given, but from the little known and from Crawford and Schuldig's reaction to his presence in Gluhen, a guess can be made.
Since Nagi has always ignored Schwarz's harassment of his feelings in favor of caring about Tot, attempting to protect her by asking her not to fight, and then bringing her back from the dead after her stabbing, it's reasonable to think that in his mind, she's more important than them. They're just his teammates; she's someone he possibly loves. With that being said, and the influence of the Takatori family very well known, Nagi might well have left Schwarz once Farfarello doing so told him that it was an option, choosing to guard Mamoru after he assumed that name and role in exchange for something he valued nearly as much his plans for revenge on the world - Tot's safety. He still hates the world and almost everyone in it - that's never likely to change, it's too much a part of him and his motivations - but Crawford mocking love in both Kapital and the Schwarz drama told Nagi what he thought of such emotions and might have cemented his decision to leave his teammates behind when the opportunity presented itself. After all, if Farfarello could leave for love, he could do the same.
