What is Adolla Link & Adolla Burst? Explained!

Fire Force is a series that follows Shinra and his journey to becoming a Hero by ending Spontaneous Human Combustion and finding the one behind his family’s death.

Even after the series’s end in 2022, some key questions remained about the mysterious realm of Adolla, the power known as the Adolla Burst and the Adolla Link. In this article, I will answer these questions and more.

1. What is Adolla?

Adolla is an alternate world from which the Adolla Burst originates. It is also known as hell by everyday people.

Adolla is an endless landscape of blackened Earth and flames with burning human bones scattered around. Strange structures and large orbiting bodies with eyes can also be seen present.

Adolla is also home to strange and powerful beings, such as the Evangelist, the Woman in Black, and the Doppelgangers. The author refers to this realm as another dimension beyond the ordinary world.

The Tear in Space on the Chinese Peninsula connects both dimensions.

2. What is an Adolla Burst?

The Adolla Burst, or the Genesis Flame, is a flame or energy from Adolla. It is widely regarded as the original flame, which is pure and unsullied. The fire erupted around the world hundreds of years ago during the Great Disaster.

An Adolla Burst can manifest as an Ignition Ability, which allows the user to manipulate fire in various ways. It can also create or power machines like Amaterasu or the Tabernacle.

Being from an alternate world, the Adolla Bursts do not adhere to Earth’s physical laws. They can produce seemingly impossible powers, such as stopping or manipulating time.

I. Who has the Adolla Burst?

There are ten users capable of harnessing the empower of Adolla Burst they are; Faerie, Haumea, Hitohashira-me, Inca Kasugatani, Iris, Nataku Son, Shinra Kusakabe, Shou Kusakabe, Sumire, and the Woman in Black.

II. How does Shinra have the adolla burst?

When Shinra confronted and fought his younger brother, Shou, he also formed an Adolla link.

Since Shou had the Adolla Burst and the Adolla Grace at that moment, Shinra created a Link with him, thereby gaining his Adolla Burst and 4th Generation Powers.

3. What is the Grace of the Evangelist?

Those who possess the Adolla Link can form a link with the Evangelist and receive something called Grace. This is called “The Grace of the Evangelist.”

Under Grace, people gain access to strange abilities that can enhance their Third Generation’s capabilities to those of a Fourth Generation.

If another user of the Adolla Link manages to form a link with somebody under Grace, they also gain a Fourth Generation ability.

This is demonstrated by Shinra when he links with Shou to get Grace. However, The Evangelist can revoke this Grace as she sees fit.

Despite the name, people other than the Evangelist can bestow Grace, such as the black woman who granted Grace to Shinra, allowing him to defeat a Horned Infernal within a second.

I. Who is the Evangelist?

The Evangelist is the leader of a cult called the White Clad, who seeks to use the Adolla Burst to cause a second cataclysm that would have merged Adolla with Earth.  She was also the being behind the First Great Cataclysm.

The Evangelist has two horns at the top of her head, which gives her a devil-like appearance. There is a symbol of the Sun God around her neck and a sun-like structure that appears to float behind it.

4. What is the Adolla Link?

The Adolla Link is a phenomenon that occurs when one experiences a connection to the Adolla.

The one unifying property of all Adolla Bursts is that since they originate from Adolla, they are connected to a being of that dimension.

I. Who can experience an Adolla link?

A human can communicate with an Adolla being, such as the Evangelist or the Woman in Black, or with the Adolla realm through an Adolla link.

Exposure to Adolla-related entities, such as Adolla Bursts, Demon Infernals, or extraterrestrial beings like the Evangelist, creates the Adolla Link.

Users of the Adolla Burst can sense each other through this connection, such as when Shinra and Shou could detect each other through the Adolla.

They can also transfer emotions to each other and directly converse within the shared vision through this mysterious power.
