Hellsing

As a teenager, Walter was fairly thin and short. He had a black wolf cut, similar to Heinkel Wulf 's hair, which is stylized in a long side burn and revealing ears. His eyes are sharp and wide, with his pupil colored blue (gray in the OVA). Though his skin is pale-white in the OVA, his skin is much more tanner in the manga. He wore a white shirt under a black vest with matching black trousers and shoes. His outfit is finished up with a pair of black fingerless gloves. In the OVA, his vest is colored blue and his trousers are gray.
As an old man, Walter still remains thin and short compared to other characters. He has clearly shown his age, with face wrinkles and details. His face are much more long and squared, and his eyes are droopier than they are sharper with his pupils now red (still gray in the OVA). His hair, now balding and colored gray (black in the OVA), are slicked back and tied up. His skin is still tanner in the manga than his in the OVA. He wore the same outfit as he did when he was a teenager but with an added monocle.
Later when he was hastily transformed into an artificial vampire by Millennium, Walter's age regressed back into his prime; built thin and tall. His face structure, similar to Sir Hugh Irons , is long and his eyes retains his youthful sharpness and is wide. His wolf cut hair is tied up with a gray band (red in the OVA) and slicked to the back, although little but many strands are left out and goes over his face. His outfit is switched with a dark magenta shirt under a dark purple vest, black trousers, a pair of black shoes with purple highlights and a gray monocle. In his waist, he occasionally wore chains. His outfit is finished up with a black tie and a pair of black fingerless gloves.

In his youth, he appeared to be belligerent, short-tempered, foul-mouthed, arrogant, and almost sadistic in his love of battle, as seen when insulting and mocking The Major and gleefully slicing up the Millennium soldiers. [8] He would loudly brag and regularly insult his opponents. He was greatly annoyed by The Major's lack of fear of him after seeing him easily kill several soldiers. [9]
As an elderly man, Walter serves primarily as Integra 's butler and also makes special weapons for use by vampires, Alucard and Seras Victoria . [10] In his old age, he has become the perfect model of an English butler; polite, diligent, brooding, dutiful, and intelligent with a dry, ironic sense of humor and a merciless disposition toward the enemies of his master. [11] [12] He appears to have mellowed out a great deal externally, cutting apart his enemies with a cold precision rather than with the glee of his younger self, and delivering only ironic and dignified insults instead of simply swearing up a storm. [13]
He appears to take great pride in being human, stating that it is something to enjoy for John Bulls , and that he no longer wishes for prosperity; lacking even so much as pride. [14] However, later after The Professor rejuvenates him, he states how he had at last, finally become the Angel of Death. [15] After he steps on the remains of Alexander Anderson , he states that people become dust once they are dead, and that dust should not be mourned for, showing that he views humanity and mortality to be weak, and all his sentiment to the contrary were likely part of his ploy to remain above suspicion. [16]
Yet later Alucard claims that the reason for Walter's betrayal came from the fact that he always wanted to best Alucard and hadn't let those feelings go. Indeed, rather than seeing old age as terrible and despising his own mortality, what Walter really hated was growing old and useless while never having fulfilled his deepest wish. [17] Much like The Major, Walter seemed to want to end his life on his own terms rather than fade away and only seemed to disdain the idea of dying without finishing one's business. This is supported by the fact that Anderson failed to kill Alucard, Anderson's great rival, and Walter disrespecting his remains while Walter simply cut down Yumie when she attacked him giving her little-to-no attention. [18] The pride Walter was referring to before in his conversation with Alucard seemed to refer to the pride of fulfilling one's ambitions. His disgust being directed towards weakness, pushing him to gain the strength he desire by any means. [19]
Despite his ruthless betrayal of Integra, the rest of Hellsing, and throwing away his honor for Millenium, Walter did have a degree of moral standards. He showed far more viciousness toward Jan Valentine's degenerate butchering of Hellsing soldiers and vulgarity. [20] He showed disgust for the experiments of The Professor and revulsion at the experiments on Mina Harker's corpse, referring to them as unspeakable in contrast to his treatment of Anderson's remains. [21] Overall, Walter was willing to go to any lengths to achieve his desires but never took pleasure in the death and destruction he caused nor did he do anything immoral beyond what was needed. This implies that Walter objects to and dislikes causing harm with no practical justification while never going out of his way to indulge in sadism for its own sake.
Despite his secret disgust for weakness and morality, as morals can get in the way of desire, he does have a large amount of care and affection for Integra, who staunchly believes in honor/duty, and Seras, who still possesses compassion and goodness, as he views them as the only thing close to a real family he has. This has been shown on many occasions, such as when Seras thanks him for everything he's done for her, and for being the only one to show hospitality to her when she first came to the manor - and this actually made him break his true character for a brief moment to show that he truly appreciates her gratitude. [22] When Alucard mockingly reminded him that, because of his betrayal, he had lost Integra and Seras forever, and that now their love and company belong solely to Alucard alone forever, this causes Walter to become incredibly furious. [23] Later, after Alucard's seeming demise he realizes his desire for victory wasn't worth it and laments what he lost, realizing it was those same bonds he saw as weakness that where what really mattered to him. On his death bed, he smiles and thinks of Integra, and how they've come so far together, and though despite that his plan failed, he still dies happy because of her. [24] [25]

She wore the eye emblem, also seen on Jan Valentine 's hat, on her necklace, implying that she may be a member of The Master of Incognito .


Hellsing

A man with sharp features yet lanky, Ferdo appears to be in his 30's and has a black, straight shaggy hair. He wore a black, turtle-neck shirt under a light-colored long-sleeved shirt under a black longcoat. Wearing a pair of trousers and a belt, Ferdo's attire is finished up with a black business shoes.


Hellsing

Rheinhold was a man of average built and height, standing around the same height as the many other background Millennium soldiers. He had a slicked blonde hair with sharp edges, with a square facial structure and blue pupils; a large scar was shown on the left side of his eye. He wore a typical SS uniform like the other soldiers of Millennium, but wore a black M43 officer's cap emblazoned with the Totenkopf symbol, similar to The Captain (though in his first appearance in the manga, he wore a typical SS helmet worn by the other soldiers of the Last Battalion, along with light facial hair).

He appeared psychopathic and maniacal, relinquishing about the fact that he's a monster and appears to enjoy being one. He viewed the fiery London being bombed by Millennium as something that was as beautiful like hell , and that it is the only place that they want to go and the only place that they can live in. [4]


Hellsing

After being reanimated, Ghouls appear sickly and grey-skinned. Their teeth are sharp and elongated, with the Millennium variation bearing fangs very similar to that of vampires. The eyes of a Millennium Ghoul are purple, as opposed to the pale orange of a normal ghoul. Their bodies also appear to be rotted and quite vulnerable to tearing.


Hellsing

On his cameo appearance in Volume 10, Harker appears to be wearing a dark green high neck trench coat with a matching green trousers and brown boots. In addition, he wore a wide brimmed, brown fedora with multiple white stripes covering across the fedora's band. He had blue eyes, and was standing around 6ft tall and a short, white hair. [1]

Harker is incredibly devoted to his wife, Mina Murray . He's incredibly hardworking into which, his employer noted that. His devotion for his wife is the reason why Murray loves him, and Harker is hopeful about the future he'll have with his fiancée. In addition, Harker is respectful to his friends. So much so that in respect for Quincey Morris sacrificing himself in order to defeat Dracula , Harker named his son after him. However despite this, Harker admitted that while facing the three female vampires , Harker said that he felt a " wicked burning desire " deep inside his heart.


Hellsing

Her appearance and the lack of modern electronics in her house imply that she lived sometime during the 15th - 17th century, which would make her hundreds of years old during the series.

Helena seems very caring, and yet very sad. For as long as she has been a vampire she has grown tired of not being able to die. Helena prefers her solitude and keeps to herself in her house, it could be for this reason that Hellsing and the authorities have, for the most part, left her alone as she appears to pose no real threat to the general populace.


Hellsing

A youthful, young man, Arthur closely resembled his father in terms of facial and external features, most notably the two little hairs that stick up which resemble horns. He also had a thick high-arching eyebrow, and a slicked, short, albeit messy hair, and was a tall man with an average build. By 1989, Arthur had grown old. He had grown a mustache and a goatee; his hair, which was slicked to the back, now has an upward bangs that falls to the left side of his head. Like all businessmen during the 1940s in England, Arthur dressed in formal business attire; which consisted of a long-sleeved shirt with an added tie, along with a vest and covered with an open suit, which matched his dress pants and was finished with a pair of business shoes and gloves.

Arthur was cocky and amorous as a young man, with women he'd invite over sometimes briefly interrupting important conversations, as seen in The Dawn . [2] He also seemed sloppy, as the library was in a state of disarray as well as having dirty crockery stacked and strewn about the place. [3] Furthermore, he was shown smiling during a serious conversation with the Round Table Council about the discovery of the Nazis working on something dangerous, and had they succeeded, they would've won World War II. [4] Still, despite his cockiness, however, he ran the organisation efficiently and was particularly wary about using Alucard for missions.
Arthur was a man with extraordinary confidence in what he does, and in the soldiers he sends during missions. Primarily, while the Round Table Council questioned his decision to send in 14-year-old Walter C. Dornez to infiltrate an enemy base, Arthur stood his ground and was confident that Walter with his legendary nickname could finish the mission with the vampire Alucard. [5] Sir Irons in particular criticized Arthur for his careless and brash attitude. [6]
Becoming wiser as he gets older, he eventually earns the respect of his comrade, and has a lot more in common with his father than anybody might think; as they are both clumsy, sarcastic and don't take serious situations too seriously and both confident in their decisions of handling things. [7] [8] In addition, he was an expert in the occult, and his philosophy taught Integra to understand the true nature of vampires that goes much deeper than the surface. [9]
Despite his confident outlook and careless personality, he was shown to be paranoid when it comes to the use of Alucard. His paranoia led to the sealing of Alucard decades after the events of The Dawn , and before the events of Hellsing . [10] [11] Much like his daughter, Arthur smokes a bunch even during his last days. [12] However, unlike Integra, Arthur is a drinker . He drank so much so that Irons criticized him for drinking in an urgent matter. Arthur later poured a bottle of liquor to Irons cup as a response. [13]


Hellsing

Sir Integral Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing

Integra has creamy brown skin, blue eyes and long blonde hair (her hair is slightly curly in the manga and has bangs also). She has a tall, thin build, almost to the point of being lanky. Thirty years later, after Millennium 's Operation Sea Lion 2 , her left eye is injured to the point where she adopts a black eyepatch to cover it, which she wears under her glasses and her hair has turned white, her age now being fifty-two years old.
Integra's attire consists of a dark green blazer and dark green dress pants, a white buttoned shirt, black shoes and a red cravat. She also wears a pair of circular wire-rimmed glasses and is often seen sporting a dark green trench coat when venturing outside her Manor. She also appears to keep a large revolver in a hidden holster beneath her blazer, supplementing it with a more overt Sig-Sauer pistol and a saber when combat seems likely. She has a fondness for smoking cigars, even in a combat situation. In the first colored picture of Integra featured on the back cover of the first volume of the manga, her cravat is neither blue nor red, but gold. Integra also appears in several Young King OURs covers and on the cover of Volumes 3 and 6, along with Alucard; here, her ascot is red.

Manga Manga OVA OVA OVA OVA OVA

A calm and collected individual, Integra handles most situations that would induce terror and fear in the average person with controlled ease. In most cases, even with genuine surprise and happiness, her reactions to stimuli are subdued. [17] Her conduct is very business-like, however she isn't incapable of a bit of humor, good-natured or not. [18] [19] Despite appearing detached and cold, she cares deeply for the lives of her men, vowing revenge for them after their slaughter by the Valentine Brothers . [20]
As a child, Integra was more timid than she is in 1999, but a very willful girl, being brought up with a commanding presence that even Alucard respects. When Alucard became her servant, she grew more confident and comfortable with her position as head of the Hellsing family and a Knight of the Round Table. Much like Seras Victoria, Integra experiences a coming of age, gaining experience and losing her remaining innocence as events unfold and the war begins, transforming into a leader with an iron resolution who does not flinch at the first signs of danger and who gains wisdom through dire losses and betrayals. [21] The Major recognizes her change from a " beautiful fräulein " to the most dangerous enemy who stands in the way of his plans, calling her forth into his zeppelin. [22] [23]
Integra is fearless, has been since she was a child, and has carried this trait with her into adulthood. Though not as overt as Alucard, there is an intimidating and domineering air about her; even as a young girl she could make Sir Shelby M. Penwood bend to her will when he shows hesitance. [24] This fearlessness does not stop at humans either, as she challenges an entire squad of Nazi Vampires after decapitating one of their numbers. [25] Shortly after, Alexander Anderson looms over her, but she does not even show the slightest bit of fear to him, a man arguably as strong as her servant Alucard and with no reason not to kill her. [26] As evidenced by one call between her and Alucard, Integra appears to be rather easily flustered. [27]
Integra is very patriotic and incredibly loyal to the crown. She is responsible, and usually reasonable, however, her calm demeanor can give way to bouts of rage at times. One notable example is when Alucard questions her orders, which she responds to by telling him fervently and angrily that they are what they are and that she is not to be questioned. [28] Integra, though serious and stoic, isn't hard-hearted or unfeeling. When Alucard slaughters the GATE squad cooperating with Tubalcain Alhambra , she asks with a noticeable amount of horror what her servant did to those men. [29] At times, she seems to forget who and what he is. There is genuine pain present when she gives the order for Alucard to kill a traitorous, vampirized Walter, a man she'd practically grown up with. [30] Later, Alucard himself begins to fade after ingesting Schrödinger , and she is visibly upset; desperately begging for Alucard to not close his eyes. [31] [32]
Three decades later, her personality seems to have relaxed some, but she can still be serious when the time calls for it and age hasn't diminished her commanding presence. Her temper is also a bit quicker. [33]


Hellsing

Richard was blond like his brother, albeit a darker shade of blond that appeared almost brown. He had blue eyes, a mustache and somewhat gaunt features. The younger of the two, Richard looked much more skinnier than Arthur does when he was younger. Like a typical business man, Richard wore a blue, long-sleeved blue shirt, covered by a dark-green suit along with a creamy-brown coat, and wore a pair of matching creamy-brown dress pants, along with a pair of dark business shoes. He also had a dark red tie.

Richard was an envious, covetous man; who grew murderous; when he felt his pride was damaged. He was also quite cowardly, trying to kill Integra; when she was a vulnerable young girl and all her protectors were away or deceased. Somewhat sadistic, he toyed with her as he had chased her through the dungeons. He seemed unaware of the existence of Alucard , despite being part of the Helsing family. Highly implying that; he only wanted to have ownership of the Hellsing Organisation solely for the prestigious seat at the Round Table Council and that; Arthur had cautiously used Alucard in certain missions; never telling Richard about the existence of the vampire.


Hellsing

A professor who was both tough and experienced, Van Helsing had a well-built physique. His face was in the shape of a heart and he appeared rough. His eyebrows were thick and high-arched, and he had short hair that was slicked back. [b] [c] Van Helsing wore a long-sleeved shirt with a dark cravat under a black double-breasted suit, matching black trousers, and a pair of dark leather riding boots, covered by a dark, rugged duster coat along with a pair of thick gauntlet gloves. [d] In volume 8, his coat was replaced by a long coat, but it was soon replaced by a duster coat again in volume 10. [e]

As a man with a wide range of variety of titles in his name, Van Helsing was simply a genius . He was an expert in his field, the first one to notice the existence of vampires as everyone around him calls Helsing crazy for believing a myth. He was competent and calm, he was experienced and cool; yet during the speeches he made, he came across as " bumbling ." Incredibly open-minded, he became a perfect nemesis that contrast with the strong and powerful, yet egotistical and dumb Count. Van Helsing's mission simply was to defeat the Count, so he departs as soon as he arrives . Adaptations of the novel have tended to play up Van Helsing's role as a vampire expert, sometimes to the extent that it is depicted as his major occupation. In the novel, however, John Seward requests Van Helsing's assistance simply because Lucy Westenra 's affliction has him baffled and Van Helsing " knows as much about obscure diseases as anyone in the world ."
Van Helsing's personality is described by John Seward :

"He is a seemingly arbitrary man, this is because he knows what he is talking about better than anyone else. He is a philosopher and a metaphysician, and one of the most advanced scientists of his day, and he has, I believe, an absolutely open mind. This, with an iron nerve, a temper of the ice-brook, and indomitable resolution, self-command, and toleration exalted from virtues to blessings, and the kindliest and truest heart that beats, these form his equipment for the noble work that he is doing for mankind, work both in theory and practice, for his views are as wide as his all-embracing sympathy." — Dracula , Chapter 9: John Seward's letter to Arthur Holmwood


Hellsing

Though his appearance was brief, he's shown to be having a black hair and is a tall man. He had a pale skin, and wore a blue coat.

Holmwood is friends with the two other men engaged with Lucy Westenra ; Quincey Morris and John Seward . As Lucy chose him over others, Holmwood is a devoted and loyal husband up until Lucy's death. Taking responsibility, he's the one who drove a Wooden Stake through Westenra's heart after she had been turned into a vampire . Though his actions caused him to cry like a "wearied child" as he mourns Westenra. Though at the end of the novel, he's said to be "happily married," which implies that Holwmood recovered from the death of Westenra.


Hellsing

Huger (ハガー) was the male vampire, red eyes, with pale skin and black hair (white in the OVA).
He wears a Green coat with a dark red T-Shirt, a white baggy pants with Brown shoes and a Light Purple beanie.


Hellsing

A young, lanky, woman who appeared to be in their 20s; Ilyushin was a woman whose hair was shorter in the back, however, longer on the front; but however, her hair's bangs was visibly falling to the right side of her head. She was flat chested and long limbed. Throughout her appearance, she was dressed in an all-black dress with buttons, along with a pair of gloves and was seen smoking.

At the start of the chapter, she maintains a calm, collected and cool composure. Despite this, she's obviously not the person you expected her to be. Seemingly, she knows a lot about weapons; describing a weapon with specifics when buying them and she's quite a rich woman. She's also quite full of herself, and an extremely confident person in general; asking what the Vatican could possibly to them, in addition; calling them "Humanitarians".
However, she smiles manically when thinking about the two nuns who had wiped up the Avlah Aqvalah. Unlike Aphram however, she does not cower or anything; rather, she fought her opponents straight on, head-to-head. But her overwhelming confidence got the better of her, and she eventually died at the hands of Yumie.


Hellsing

Incognito had purple-ish grey skin and is almost as tall as Alucard. He also has a green eye, however, his left eye is distorted. It could possibly be his restriction to his power, similar to Alucard's restriction gloves. He was drawn as an incredibly lanky person and has a left arm that's longer than his right arm. One most notable feature of Incognito, aside from his left eye, is his head shape - he's bald and his head crown is pointy and very long.
Incognito's blood also appears to be a different color than red, as shown in episode 11 when Seras shot him multiple times. However, in episode 13 , when Alucard impaled him, he was seen bleeding with red blood. Furthermore, when Helena tried to escape from Incognito's body, Incognito sliced part of his tummy, and the blood was red.

He's a masochistic, sadistic vampire. Showing no remorse for what he is doing, and instead enjoys it - often laughing maniacally about it. Before being fused with Sett, he's shown to be calm and incredibly patient, executing the first step of his plan very smoothly - meaning that he's a gifted tactician, even tricking the Hellsing Organisation 's leader, Sir Integra Fairbrook Wingates Hellsing .

After being shot multiple times in the head, Incognito instead smiles.

Like the Major from the original Hellsing manga , he seems to embrace the war that's going on around him - even saying that he lives for total destruction, and nothing else. He's quite psychotic, treating everyone he fights with extreme brutality, and his only reason for doing the things that he does is to hurt as many innocent people as possible, all while displaying little to no guilt or shame for any of the horrible actions he or his allies commits. Incognito also sees pain as some kind of weird pleasure, as shown when after Alucard asked him, which method he should take to send him into a purgatory of eternal pain, Incognito claims that he's the one who wishes for eternal pain, this statement is possibly very true, as Incognito, often when getting shot, smiles and tells them to shoot more. Furthermore, after Integra had stated that he would be given eternal pain, Incognito commented "That's Marvelous", showing his true desire for "eternal pain". However, it's not only limited to him, he takes pleasure when someone screams or struggles when they're hurt -replying with "Just enjoy the pleasure".
However, after fusing with Sett, his calm and patient personality took a turn and he became impatient, savage, and egotistical, almost like Alucard. He claims that with the power of the ancient god, Sett, he will rule the world. Incognito is also known for being very manipulative, often asking questions that would leave victims open for an attack, something he did to Seras. Though he claimed to be loyal to his god, Incognito in truth, had no intention of ever letting Sett take over and was instead planning to betray the deity and steal its powers for himself, showing that he was incredibly ambitious and power-hungry, almost to the point of arrogance, which Integra even stated that he was a freak who is addicted to his own power and intoxicated with blood. Like Alucard, his overconfidence in his ability ironically led to his defeat at the hands of Alucard.
His ambitions proved so great that it led to him murdering Helena after he feared that she might cause problems for him in the future suggesting that he might've had a paranoid side to him. His arrogance and sadistic and overconfident nature can also easily be abused, as when he had thought he had killed Alucard, he had instead got revived due to Incognito not checking twice to make sure if he was really dead or not, and easily assumed that he would win in a second battle. He was also confident that Seras would die due to blood loss, and that's why she left her, however, this turns out to be not true and Seras managed to live to see another day. Ironically it was these character flaws that would lead to him being defeated and his plans thwarted before they even began.


Hellsing

As a young man, Irons was a man of average height and build, almost as tall as Arthur with dark blue eyes. He had blonde, short combed hair, slicked to the left and high-arching eyebrows. As time passed on, in 1999, Irons grew much older than he was in 1944. By this time, he appears to be much more thinner, with his hair now slicked to the back and grey.
He wore a white long-sleeved shirt with black tie under a black double-breasted suit jacket with matching trousers and business shoes. He also wore a pair of white gloves and circular wire-rimmed glasses. His most recognizable set of accessories is his black top hat and a cane. Irons later wore a black vest with his double-breasted jacket now unbuttoned. During the conference meeting in the Hellsing manor , Irons wore an all-red outfit; the rims of his glasses were also gold instead of grey. In 1944, Irons wore an all-green outfit, save for his shirt which remains white, and a red-and-blue striped tie.

Sir Hugh Irons is a rather stern individual, with an ability to remain cool in the face of danger. These aspects of his personality are seen in Volume 2 during the Valentine Brothers' attack when he keeps himself calm as the rest of the Council, except Integra, is frantic for their lives. [2] [3] Though in most situations he remains serious and calm, he pokes fun at something he finds ironic and has bit of a humor in him. [4] [5] Even with his calm and collected nature, Irons sometimes can get angry as such when he yelled at The Major during his declaration of war in front of the Round Table Council, Iscariot, and Her Majesty. But The Major shuts him down quickly after that. [6]
However, at times, his behavior comes across as " cold-hearted " because of his beliefs in honor and pride. Irons believes that the commander should be held responsible for the deaths of the soldiers under them had the attack they received was not prepared; that is why he ordered Walter to step down and that Integra should be the one who'll put the Hellsing ghouls out of their misery as she is the commander and it is her duty of doing so. [7] Incredibly loyal to the Queen and his close friends, Irons was one of the only ones who did not suspect Penwood of betraying him and demanded that the Millennium should pay for killing one of their comrades. [8]
Despite his cold-hearted demeanor, Sir Irons cares for the soldiers sent to the battlefield; even if they aren't working under him specifically. Before Arthur's assurance, Irons criticized Arthur's actions in sending Walter to the battlefield and being carefree as Walter risks his life infiltrating a Nazi base. [9]


Hellsing

In terms of physical appearance, he's quite similar to his great-grandfather back in the 1940s, during the World War II era. He had blonde, short combed hair, slicked to the left and high-arching eyebrows. He also had blue eyes, similar to his great-grandfather. Differences between his great grand-father is that he's generally way more well-built. Irons IV dons a light-blue plaid dress shirt, with a dark-red tie under a green double-breasted suit with matching trousers, and brown business shoes. Irons IV also wears rectangle-framed glasses. He's also one of the few characters in Hellsing that bears no gloves of any color.

Similar to his great-grandfather, Irons IV appears to be a man who is confident and calm and harbors dedication towards his position and job. Worrying that if a disastrous event like the " Airship Affairs " had ever happen again, Irons IV delayed his fencing training just to research through multiple newspapers and outlets to learn more about the situation, so he could deal with the situation without " taking up arms " had it ever happened in the future. This shows his true dedication. [2]


Hellsing

Physically, Jan looks like a young man in their early 20s. He had dark skin, amber eyes, and dark hair. He's almost as tall, if not, a tad bit shorter than his big brother, Luke Valentine.

Contrary to Luke's calm and "cool" personality, Jan is cynical, disrespectful, and couldn't care less about the situation he's in - whether good or bad, as shown when he's laughing while being surrounded by Walter, Seras, and Integra, with no way out. He is quite obnoxious, and even his brother is quite annoyed by his poor decisions. He's one of the most foul-mouthed characters in the show, literally insulting everyone and everything around him.
He's quite a psychopath, appearing to take pleasure in slaughtering humans, whether they're innocent or not, and even mentions how "hard" he is when doing so. He's full of himself, very confident in his abilities, and that he would win no matter what, thinking that he's smarter than his opponent. He also truly hates someone that he's fighting, even considering raping Integra, killing her, then raping her dead body once again if he and his brother won the war.
Underestimating his opponents, notably the Hellsing Organization - ironically led to his defeat and eventual death.
Ironically, in one scene, Jan realizes that Integra has been smoking very expensive cigars, which he believes is screwed up that she spends her money on such, given how much poverty has stricken the country. This shows Jan's hypocritical manners.
Nevertheless, Jan's vulgar and psychopathic behavior makes him the complete opposite of his brother; a calm, cool, and collected person.


Hellsing

An older looking man, Julia has a sharp facial features and a brown hair. Julia wore a white long-sleeved shirt and a black tie under a brown coat with a red armband that spells out " NKT Brazil " in a black, upper-case font. His attire is finished with a matching brown trousers and black business shoes.


Hellsing

Laura was shown as a young baobhan sith with long blonde hair and pale blue eyes. Like most vampires, she has pale skin. She has red dots on her forehead and a red earring for fashion purposes. And like all vampires, she has fangs that are sharp enough to puncture the flesh of their prey.
Along with her blonde hair, she also wears a long green dress, two key traits of a baoban sith.

Laura seems to be calm and stoic, as well as being deceiving. She easily tricked Integra into believing she was her sister. She seems quite risqué in behavior. For example, after partially undressing a hypnotized Integra, exposing Integra's brassiere and tries to seduce her by biting and licking her breasts.


Hellsing

While appearing in his 30's to 50's, he has a noticeable balding silver hair that's slicked to the back, and was generally a short man. He has a fair skin and is on the chubby side, and has a clear yellow eyes yet, small pupils. His facial features, including his hairs, eyebrows, ect., is silver.
Dressing in a typical grey suit over a white shirt, he dresses up in a formal attire; and looks like a normal business man. He also wears a cool grey tie. His most noticeable feature is his glasses, which are a pair of circular-framed glasses with a pink rims.

Appearing in only 2 episodes, it's hard to exactly tell what kind of man he is; except for the fact that he generally does not believe in supernatural creatures like vampires and ghouls . In addition, in most of his appearance; he seems quite tired of everything that's happening, sighing and a little riddled with the recent rise of vampires due to a chip that could transform a human into a vampire in seconds. Overall, he's a simple man with an average person's personality; just trying to do his job as the Lieutenant of the London Police Department.


Hellsing

A man in his thirties with brown hair and a little on the chubby side, he has golden eyes and is quite tall. In both media, he wore a formal attire which includes a yellow long-sleeved shirt with a blue tie under a dark brown vest, which is under a light brown coat with a matching trousers and black business shoes.


Hellsing

In Hellsing, Luke had very pale skin, long, blonde hair reaching his waist and tied with a lime ribbon at the end, and light yellow eyes, however, in some scenes - Luke is depicted with pitch-black eyes. He's tall, almost as tall as Alucard , and has a seemingly normal build.

While his younger brother, Jan, was a cynical, vulgar, and obnoxious person; Luke was everything that Jan wasn't; a calm, cool, and patient man whose focus was on their family's business. However, his personality was more of an "act", as his true colors are shown when Alucard defeated him with no difficulty whatsoever. Behind this "cool" personality, however, Luke was a psychopath; having no remorse for the victims he killed, much like Jan, and even in some cases - he smiles widely while doing so.
He's quite full of himself either, thinking that he could go up against a true vampire while being an artificial FREAK - even while doing so, he stated that he had more powers than even that of Alucard's, which was quite laughable; he made this assumption right after he only shot Alucard twice in the head, in which, after seeing Alucard get up and smiling; Luke stares in disbelief, thinking that he had killed Alucard right away. He believes that the concept of "Immortality" does not exist, and was willing to have a chance to fight Alucard to prove that he's right, however, it's safe to say that he wasn't ready at all - even if he did say that he had been waiting for this "for a long time." His cockiness and egotistic side are what led Luke to eventually meet his end.
The two brothers are a contrast to each other, and while some might think Jan was the more dangerous one - that is far from the case, as Luke was the one pulling the strings. He planned to silently kill the security officers guarding the front gate before driving a bus full of ghouls right into the gate to attack Hellsing by surprise. Even though the Valentine brothers lost, the Hellsing organisation was severely damaged because of them, causing over 100 trained soldiers to perish in the battle, and almost killed Peter Fargason , the Hellsing organisation's commander.
Despite his cool and calm demeanor, it is shown that Luke can be broken and go crazy. When he finally sees Alucard's true power, Luke was freaked out and lost his composure, in which, after a two-headed Baskerville chases him at full speed - Luke dodges it, and tried to run away; without even using his speed ability, which could mean that there is some kind of trigger to activate the ability. Eventually, Luke lost it and gave up, calling Alucard a "monster", which disappointed the latter - as he had high expectations for Luke.


Hellsing

The Major is a short, obese man with metallic grey hair and pink pupils. His hair is oddly styled, with a longer section coming up and then down again in the front left side of his head, like a folded piece of paper. He is seen with a wide grin throughout most of the series, although there are a couple scenes where he is seen frowning. This grin is described as being " half laughing " and it is mentioned that his cheek moves very little. He's described as awfully short for a soldier, standing in at around 160cm and was said to be looked in his mid twenties. [11] In the OVA, his hair is blonde and the color of his eyes are changed with a striking yellow color.
He is dressed impeccably, wearing an expensive white shirt with a white tie and black gem under a matching white double-breasted suit and overcoat, white trousers and shoes and a pair of white gloves and circle-framed glasses. In the OVA, while his suit remains white, the tie is changed to black with red gem, and his overcoat are beige-colored.

The Major's defining trait in the series is a complete and utter obsession with war. By his own admission, he loves war in any and all of its aspects; even being on the losing side or having his own life at risk provokes nothing but glee and excitement. His insane devotion to war is evident in the sheer fondness with which he regards the havoc Millennium wreaks upon the world, as well as his cavalier approach to death, which was passed on to most of his forces through his speeches. [12] Despite being a former Nazi, the Major does not care for the reasons behind any war, and appears to have no political or ideological leanings. [13] Even during World War II, his enthusiastic work on the Millennium project was solely to ensure that he could wage war forever.
Contrasting his fanatical love of war, the Major is very calm, patient, and soft-spoken, almost always speaking in a polite, amused tone. One can see he seems to prefer an upper-class lifestyle, often seen eating high-class steaks and red wine, as well as wearing expensive clothes. [14] Additionally, he seems to be well-versed in history and literature, often referencing both during speech. He is very eloquent and well-spoken, and often engages in numerous soliloquy-esque monologues. [15] He is a military genius, having planned his attack on London for over half a century, and witnessing almost every detail go according to plan. [16]
Despite not caring whether his soldiers live or die, he acts as if he cares for them as a group, giving them morale speeches and making note of acts worthy of reward; however, this does not extend to traitors, who he will happily have executed. He also has no qualms about dealing out punishment for other forms of insubordination, which in his " I Love War " speech is one of the things he declares enjoying. However, The Major freely admits his own evil while mocking the righteousness of his enemies; when he crashes the Queen's meeting, he mocks both Integra and Maxwell 's beliefs while claiming that Millennium has no goals beyond wanton destruction and slaughter. [17]
Despite being a self-proclaimed fiend and madman, the Major is very proud and protective of, what he perceives to be, his humanity, which he defines as his willpower and " soul ." During the fall of Berlin, he rejected the temptation to drink blood and ensure his survival by becoming a vampire, even though he seemed to be on the verge of death, and even though vampirism would mean he would be able to taste life eternal and wage war throughout the centuries. [18] It is this pride that leads to the Major's campaign against Alucard, who he views as a monster and an inherently inferior being for sacrificing his humanity for power - a sentiment ironically shared by Alucard himself. [19]
The Major is an almost textbook example of a sociopath. While he has a certain charm and charisma that allows him to inspire his followers and manipulate his enemies, he cares for no one beyond their usefulness to him and lacks empathy and compassion on almost every level. [20] Only his goals matter to him and while he claims that he and his people all share a common cause, in truth, he only sees them as a means to an end. He has no reservations about the horrors caused by his actions and even delights in the carnage and destruction he causes. [21] [22] This ties into his inherent nihilism and desire to end his existence with the grand swan song he believes he deserves. [23] [24]
The Major not being known as a "good shot" even by himself, was taken easily in battle in his past. He was beaten down and surely was fine with dying as he refused the vampirism, as he laid there in his own blood. He allowed The Professor to keep him alive by keeping his brain in tact but his body maintained as a machine. This way he could maintain his "soul" and sense of self, where as Alucard lost his sense of self with all the souls living inside him due to vampirism.


Hellsing

Makube is a man of medium build with fair skin. He has droopy eyes with light red pupils and a long scar that goes down from his jaw, to slightly over his left eyebrow. It is unknown where he received this scar from. His blueish light-purple hair, although a little messy and unkempt, is slicked to the back except for two strands of front hair bangs that go down over his face. His eyebrows are of the same color, although darker. He wears a white shirt with a collar underneath a dark cassock robe with a blueish-gray accent. His outfit is finished with matching dark trousers and a pair of black shoes and gloves, along with a cross necklace. [a]

He seems to be much more level-headed than Maxwell was, although he could be equally fanatical; his level-headedness (or at least a healthy self-preservation instinct) comes to surface when Heinkel Wulf suggests a plan to kill half the Round Table Council , at the cost of killing both of them as well. He promptly negates permission and responds that Iscariot is willing to wait another century or two before beginning the 10th Crusade , ruminating it will be a success. It could be argued that he is tolerant, unlike his predecessor.


Hellsing

Maxwell was a tanned, tall, and slender man. He kept his long, blonde hair in a ponytail and had eyes that appeared light blue in color. [a] Maxwell seemed to suffer from myokymia when he was excited, characterized by the repeated twitching of his left eye. He wore a white long-sleeved shirt with a collar under a purple cassock vest with matching purple trousers and black shoes. Occasionally, he was equipped with a pair of circular wire-rimmed glasses. After his promotion as an Archiepiscopus , he switched to a fully long-sleeved purple cassock and also wore a purple sash with white accents. [b]

Maxwell was the leader of the Vatican's Iscariot, controlling his subordinates with an iron fist. [10] [11] However, his seemingly blind devotion to his mission often made his underling and mentor, Alexander Anderson , question his motivations. [12] For example, during the standoff between Alucard and the Millennium -led police forces in Rio de Janeiro, Anderson watched the scene unfold on the news with a mixture of revulsion and fury, while Maxwell seemed to revel in the ensuing violence. [13]
At times, Maxwell presented himself as a suave and gentle bishop. [14] Yet, even so, he can fully snap if someone really got on his nerves, like Integra's bantering for example where the situation escalated to the summoning of Alucard and Anderson after Maxwell called Integra a " sow " in a fit of rage. [15] Despite this, Maxwell had demonstrated on multiple occasions that he was very calculated, cruel and fanatical in his mission to purge all heretical and demonic orders, such as his attack on London where he murdered innocent Protestants along with the Nazi vampires, which he seemed to greatly enjoy. [16] [17] [18]
As a child, Maxwell was orphaned at Anderson's orphanage via Father Ronald . Anderson was intrigued at the sight of Maxwell, who proclaimed that he does not need a friend, a companion, or a mother or a father to become great. His ambition and goal was fully set upon when he proclaims that he will become great and look down on all of them . [19] In the end, he was Anderson's greatest student and eventually became what he strived to achieve. [20] A combination of faith, pride, conviction, and ambition had kept Enrico going all this time, that is until he goes over the edge due to his power-hungry nature. [21] [22]


Hellsing

The MI5 Chief is a middle aged looking-man with a balding brown hair, and brown eyes with sharp features. He also dresses in a formal attire, which includes a white, long-sleeved shirt with a purple tie; in a black suit and along with a matching black dress pants, and a pair of black business shoes.


Hellsing

Quincey was shown to be wearing a grey long-coat with white lining over its collar over a white, long-sleeved shirt. He also wore a brown cowboy hat and a pair of white gloves, along with two brown bags over his shoulder.
His appearance would later change during his cameo appearance in Volume 10 , where he's shown wearing white shirt under a black suit with brown trousers and a matching brown business shoes, and a pair of white gloves. While he still uses the cowboy hat, it is now brown instead of grey. Instead of having two brown bags, he's now shown to be wielding a revolver next to his corpse.

While he only made a brief appearance in Hellsing, in the novel Quincey's character is obviously more explored, as he is one of the main characters there. Quincey valued "honesty and pluck" above almost anything. He was straightforward and never said anything he doesn't mean. He took what people say to him at face value and accepted even the strangest things (like the existence of vampires) with remarkable calm. Lucy Westenra noted that he "is really well educated and has exquisite manners, even though he can be super funny." He only used American slang when no uptight that English people are around to be shocked and horrified by his language.


Hellsing

Ridgeway is an older man with a black hair. He is also a tall and lanky man possessing a square chin and has a long, messy hair tightly bound. Wearing a brightly colored shirt with a striped patterned tie over a dark suit, and over a light colored long coat with an added white scarf with a matching trousers and a pair of light colored business shoes, Ridgeway also wore two circle framed glasses and a pair of white gloves.

In his limited time on the chapter, Ridgeway is shown to be a quite calm and intelligent man. As his business operates specifically on firearms and intelligence, Ridgeway prefers money over anything else, and will sell to " anyone who has the money ." He can by quite serious at times however. Ridgeway also states that he wishes he could be as busy as Yumiko and Heinkel are, meaning that he too wishes to be an assassin over a dealer. He also expressed his amazement over The Vatican sending in girls like Heinkel and Yumiko to handle with multiple armed men.


Hellsing

The Pastor was an older looking man, appearing somewhere in his forties, with grey hair (black in the OVA), very sharp and prominent features, and hellish red eyes. He had pale skin, sharp fangs and dressed in darker, monochromatic priest clothing.

From what little we see of him, the Pastor  seems as sadistic and depraved as most of his kind. He planned on raping Seras, thereby disallowing her to become a vampire like himself, because he didn't want a vampire with free will running around. Power hungry, dismissive, arrogant, cowardly and violent.


Hellsing

Paul had blonde hair and purple eyes with a thin build. He looked like a young man and was probably standing at 5'6 or 5'7, as he appears to be slightly taller than Seras. He was shown only wearing black shorts and nothing else.

Paul was a manipulative stalker. He's shown to be really creepy, licking his face when Seras spits on it. He used his psychic powers to communicate with her and tried to get her to join him, making Seras wonder what his motivation is.


Hellsing

Though he bares many resemblance with his grandfather (notably the hair style and mustache), Penwood Ⅲ appears to be much leaner in contrast to his grandfather's plump appearance. His hair color, mustache and eyebrows, are colored black as opposed to his grandfather's blond (brown in the OVA). Unlike his grandfather's blue eyes, Penwood Ⅲ has yellow eyes. His mustache is a double pencil style, unlike his grandfather's major mustache in the OVA.

Penwood harbors similar traits to his father; both are clumsy, hasty, and loud. Although Penwood Ⅲ appears to be much more shyer than his grandfather ever was, but at the same time, much more braver. This is probably because of him training directly under Sir Integra, along with the rest of the new generations of the Round Table Conference. Penwood Ⅲ is also a very curious person; wanting to know much more about his grandfather, although Sir Integra constantly lies and makes up a comical story that Penwood Ⅲ hardly believes in. [2]


Hellsing

Penwood was an older man with a short and plump appearance with blue pupils. Being the youngest of the trio which consisted of him, Arthur Hellsing, and Sir Hugh Irons , Penwood's facial hair color hadn't turned gray. He had short blond hair slicked to the back, with its bangs being swept over to the left and a bushy mustache. Penwood wore a white buttoned shirt with a red, sometimes dark blue tie under a dark blue double-breasted suit jacket with matching trousers and black business shoes.

He was often thought to be incapable of his job and a coward for his frequent fits of panic, such as when he accepted his apparent death after the Valentine Brothers' ghoul soldiers successfully infiltrate the Hellsing Organisation compound. His hasty and loud nature led to Sir Irons briefly shutting him up. [2]
But during Millennium 's invasion of London, his behavior somehow changed. [3] Instead of evacuating himself, he held his ground at England's military headquarters along with all the remaining survivors of the double-agents' attack. [4] [5] As he worked to set up his last stand, he used a radio to command the remainder of London's law enforcement groups and surviving soldiers to stand their ground. By the time Millennium forces had successfully infiltrated the base, Penwood had successfully wired the operations room with an enormous amount of plastic explosives. When the vampire soldiers approached him, Penwood demonstrated his loyalty to the British Crown by setting off the explosives and taking a number of Millennium agents and soldiers with him. [6]
Nevertheless, while thought to be a fool, thick, and incompetent, Penwood was a honorable and prideful man; described by Irons as a " man among men ." Though the younger members of the Conference suspected Penwood to be the traitor within the Round Table, Irons vouched for him and remarked that he would rather commit suicide than turn trator. [7]


Hellsing

The Professor is an older and tall, lanky man with a fair skin. With his pure-golden colored pupils, he has a yellow, straight, and middle-parted bob for a hair. His arching eyebrows are tonally a darker shade of yellow than his hair. What type of species he belongs to is unknown, as it's never revealed whether or not that he's a vampire or a cyborg.
The Professor usually appears dressed in a perpetually bloodstained white lab coat, an unusual shirt that reveals his lower torso, and glasses with an assortment of adjustable, multi-lensed spectacles. He wears four-fingered gloves with both his ring finger and pinky forced into the last one. This suggests he may have Syndactyly, having his last two fingers fused together on each hand. In moments of extreme tension, he tends to bite down one of his fingers, hard enough to draw blood. This is a disorder known as dermatophagia.

The Professor is a mad scientist who works for The Major. His loyalty is absolute, but that's only because of his interests within the vampire production program. [3] He takes his work very seriously, and will take offense whenever someone insults his creation. [4] [5] A perfectionist, he was incredibly disappointed that Alhambra died and was worried that The Major would punish him for Alhambra's failure, yet The Major instead praises him in high regards. [6] Unlike the rest of Millennium, he does not seek to die in a grandiose way.
Rather than seeking the last " hurrah " that the washed-up veterans of Millennium that they long for, the Professor's interest ultimately lies within the creation of vampires and the advances of " science " that he loves whole heartedly. At the thought of his failure and imperfection over the experiments, he wonders what is lacking and what is missing. [7] He believes that his research, and his " science miracle " that thrives upon numerous practices while advancing itself, would some day catch up, and even surpass Alucard himself. [8] In the end, he was confronted by his creation that belittled his product and ultimately killed him before he could escape and advance his research further. [9] [10]
Throughout the series, he keeps mostly a smirky demeanor and is consistently seen besides The Major. In fact, his first ever appearance was with The Major himself. He can however get annoyed, mostly by Schrödinger's actions.


Hellsing

Ronald is an older, tall man with gray hair and a bushy mustache. His hair is short, slicked to the back, and his mustache is stylized, with the bottom being curved down and ends sharply. He also has blue pupils.
In his first appearance, Ronald wore all-white attire, which includes a white cassock vest with grey trim under a beige cassock overcoat with purple trim, white trousers with a pair of black shoes, and white gloves. In his next appearance in volume 2 , Ronald switched to a black cassock shirt, black trousers, and shoes while maintaining the gloves. In volume 4 , he now supports a black cassock overcoat. In all of his appearance, he maintains a pair of circle-framed glasses with gold temples supporting no rims.

Though mostly playing a neutral role in Hellsing , Ronald is also a religious fanatic of Iscariot. He acts as a messenger, being the one who delivered the notice of Hellsing 's doing in Badrick to Alexander Anderson at the request of Maxwell. In doing so, he states that the Vatican does not back down from a challenge by heretics, essentially allowing Anderson to fight Alucard if he had to. Based off of Maxwell's flashback, Ronald seems to be the one who brings orphans to Anderson's. He's also gentle, informing Maxwell of his new home.


Hellsing

Taking the form of a young boy, although he appears to be around 14 which is also the minimum age of Hitler Youth membership. He had red pupils (pink in the OVA ). In addition to his light-yellow pixie cut, two black ears pokes out of his hair displaying feline characteristics.
Schrödinger dresses in a Hitler Youth uniform which consists of a greenish-yellow dress shirt and shorts (yellow shirt and black shorts in the OVA ), black knee high socks and a black tie. He also wears green gloves and green dress boots (white gloves and black shoes in the OVA ). In the OVA , Schrödinger can be seen to have a tail when The Professor tells him he can look at The Captain 's guidebook. Though previously in the same scene he is shown to not have one and this is therefore normally associated to be a reference to his feline characteristics.

Compared to the other Nazis, Schrödinger was rather comical and lighthearted, but still had a sinister air about him. [2] Even so, he provided a bit of levity among Millennium and was often a headache for The Professor due to his quips and jabs at The Major. The Major didn't seem to mind, however, even playfully going along with the jokes. [3] [4] Playful and childlike, Schrödinger also had a streak of cruelty, even towards his teammates. He, for instance, watches Rip Van Winkle and Zorin Blitz die and seems to be amused by it all. [5] [6] He is likely sadistic underneath or alongside his cheerful demeanor.


Hellsing

Seward is shown to be a young man with a big and long blonde hair, and wears a what seems like to be a grey, floppy brimmed fedora. He's also shown to be quite fit, and almost as tall, if not taller than Abraham Van Helsing . He wears a large, grey coat with cape with a white lining and large white cuffs.
His appearance however would change in his next cameo appearance in Volume 10 , where he's shown to be wearing a blue long-sleeved shirt with high collar and a tie under an oversized green overcoat with ruffles on exclusive on his shoulder, similar to what Sir Helsing wore during the confrontation with Count Dracula . He also wore a pair of white gloves and a matching green trousers and brown business shoes. He had blue eyes, is a tall man and had a short, combed to the back, blonde hair.
He used a double-barrel shotgun as his weapon during the final fight, though he briefly used the Winchester Repeating Rifle during the race against the sunset .

Seward is inquisitive, always seeking to understand, based on his discussions with asylum patient. He is also loyal and kind, which is emphasized by the care and attention he gives Lucy Westenra after she begins to exhibit symptoms of an unknown illness which they later recognize as the onset of vampirism. He is best friends with Quincey Morris and Arthur Holmwood . All three propose to Lucy Westenra on the same day. Although Lucy turns down Seward's marriage proposal, his love for her remains, and he dedicates himself to her care when she is suddenly taken ill.


Hellsing

While he seemingly looks 40 or 50 year old judging by his appearance, he was a pale man with a grey, short; bushy hair and had pink eyes. He was also quite skinny, but his clothing makes him look bigger than he actually looks.


Hellsing

She had long, unkept black hair, which became visible when she removed the cowl to fight. Yumiko always dressed in a standard Catholic nun's uniform, which consisted of a black habit, a nun's hooded cowl, a white scarf, white gloves, white stockings held with a garter belt, and black boots. In Crossfire , Yumiko was shown wearing glasses to prevent her more violent personality, Yumie, from coming out. On the back of her gloves, an inscription similar to that of Anderson's was seen. Yumie preferred to remove the nun's cowl, kept the scarf around her neck, and let her hair flow free. Yumie also had slightly narrower eyes and could usually be seen with a maniacal grin. She also carried her Katana , holding the sheath in one hand and the blade in the other when in use. She wielded the sword in either hand.

Yumie was impulsive and violent, showing no fear of anything and preferring to negotiate using the sharp end of her Katana. She seemed to genuinely enjoy killing those who opposed them and monsters. [4] [5] She was loyal to her fellow Iscariots but didn't hesitate to argue with or chide them for actions she disagreed with. [6] [7]

Yumiko (left) and Yumie (right)

In Crossfire, her personality is a bit more explored. Here, we see that Yumiko has a split personality: [8]

The gentle, violence-hating Yumiko, who's timid and quite innocent. [9] The ultra-violent Yumie, who'll gladly kill sinners without remorse. [10]

In more detail, Yumiko was a shy, quiet nun who got easily frightened, whereas Yumie provided raw, unfettered violence with her nigh-superhuman strength, fearlessness, and fearsome Katana skills that made her the ideal partner to Heinkel. [11] [12] Maxwell often berated the pair, not because of their excessive violence but rather because of their activities as assassins, mentioned as having been dressed in the raiment's of the Catholic Church, indicating a connection to the Vatican and by proxy to Iscariot, which was supposed to be a secret agency outside normal knowledge. [13]
Both Yumiko and Yumie were devout to their religion; however, Yumie was a fanatical Catholic and seemed to genuinely enjoy killing " heathens " and " unbelievers " with her superhuman sword skills. [14] Yumiko had commented how hard it was for her to " get Yumie to sleep " after she had been provoked into action. [15] Their personalities switched places, either by dueling for control inside of their minds [16] or a strong blow. [17] Heinkel used this technique to awaken the latent Yumie and had her brutally kill several terrorists. [18]


Hellsing

A man appearing in his 30's and on the chubby side, Tomily has a brown hair and a mustache, with a short hair swept to the right. Dressing in a formal attire, Tomily wore a suit over a shirt and a striped-patterned black tie with a matching trousers, and black business shoes.


Hellsing

An older, chubby man with a balding hair and grey facial features including a mustache, the Priest wore a normal priest clothing which includes an outfit dressed in all black; a cassock with a pair of trousers and a silver cross necklace finished up with a pair of black shoes.

In his short appearance, he appears as a scared man. Though it's justified as he was taken as a hostage by a group of extremists. Even so, he did a quite admirable act which was shown when he pleaded for Aphram , the leader of the extremists that took the group of priest and nuns hostage, to instead replace Yumiko Takagi , who was planned to be killed, in his place and told him to get his hands off of Yumiko.


Hellsing

She had pale skin, seemingly brownish eyes and extremely long grey/light greenish hair which almost extends down to her ankles, and which also covered her left eye. She had a curvaceous body with large breasts and long legs. She wore a revealing dress, the same color as her hair, with a slit at the top of the dress in the centre of the chest extending down to the bottom of the dress at the top of her left thigh. She also wore gloves that extended halfway up to just below her shoulders and high heels. She accessorised with blue lipstick, earrings and a jewelled choker.

While little is known about her personality, it seems safe to assume by her fashion style and her manner of speech, that she had a seductive and alluring personality.


Hellsing

Though of the same height as his brother, his build was noticeably lankier. His skin was fair, and his short wolf-cut hair was black. Jan was notable for having multiple silver piercings: some in each ear, his nose, his eyebrow, his cheek and two on his lower lip (one of them was later ripped off). The description of Jan in the author's notes at the end of volume 2 jokingly implies that he had a number of hidden piercings. He wore a black high-collared track jacket and pants with red trim, a pair of white shoes and gloves, and a black beanie with an eye of design (colored blue, white, and red pupil) on the front. [4] The OVA mainly picked up the color schemes from the anime in which he was dark-skinned and wore blue-colored clothing with white trim, and gold piercings. The eye design on his beanie was also colored gold and white.

Jan was shown to be vulgar, rude and one of the most foul-mouthed characters in the series, constantly spewing profanity at others and making volatile comments about them. He was also perhaps the most obnoxious, given the fact that he was often loud when he spoke and laughed quite often, even in the face of defeat or death. [5] Unlike his brother, who was usually composed and focused on maintaining their family's business, Jan appeared to not truly be pleased unless he was enjoying himself by causing chaos and destruction. [6] This and his appearance made him the complete opposite of his brother. It is implied that he and his family came from an extremely poor background, as Jan spoke about Sir Integra 's status as an upper wealth and noted the class division in England. [7]


Hellsing

Luke was a man of average build and height with a fair skin (pale in the OVA). He had a straight, long, blonde hair with bangs and loosely tied up with a pink ribbon (white in the OVA) at the end. His hair is much more curlier in the OVA, and he had green pupils. He wore silver pince-nez glasses and the same style of military jacket as his brother Jan, although Luke's was black with gold lining (grey with gold lining in the OVA) under a white double-breasted suit with matching trousers and a pair of white business shoes. In the OVA, a white overcoat draped over his shoulders is added.

Despite being Jan Valentine's brother, the two were polar opposites. While Jan was socially loud, obnoxious, unpleasant and murders with glee and sadism Luke was far less talkative, usually calm and kills casually. He fancied himself as someone classy, cool, and calm and tried to get Jan to be as " cool " and not talkative and loud to no avail. [2] Luke liked to fancy himself as the one who will bring about Alucard's demise, believing that because of his relatively advanced powers that he was destined to surpass Alucard in every way. [3] He believed that he has more than Alucard's powers at his own disposal, and believed Alucard to be just no more powerful than an Artificial Vampire like himself. [4]
Despite his relatively serious, calm, and cool outlook; when Alucard's power was much greater and terrifying than he had expected, Luke cowered and tried to run in fear. [5] In the face of pressure and hopelessness, Luke broke and was terrified. In the face of Alucard's disappointment, Luke tried to insult Alucard back as nothing more than a " Anglican Church's dog " to which Alucard claims that if that's the case, then he (Luke) is dog food . [6] Confused and dumbfounded when Baskerville died and he manifested, he freaked out before later being wired by the vampirized Walter C. Dornez in order to fight Alucard. [7]


Hellsing

Rip Van Winkle looks to be in her early twenties due to her artificial vampiric nature. She is tall and lanky, with glowing blue eyes and freckled cheeks. She has long black hair (tinted blue in the OVA) that reaches down to her knees. A few bangs tend to stick up from her head, including a particularly long lock of hair that ends in a curl.
Rip Van's usual outfit includes a black suit (purple with black highlights in the OVA), a white dress shirt (pink in the OVA), a red tie (dark green in the OVA), and black shoes. She also wears glasses, white gloves - presumably to protect her hands when firing her musket - and a large silver Swastika pendant. In a flashback, she was also seen wearing a Nazi military uniform with her hair tied into two long braids.

Rip Van is one of the more playful and cheerful members of Millennium's commanders, exhibiting a rather childish personality on most occasions. [4] While on-board the Eagle , she counts down the time to Millennium 's attack by using a pink alarm clock with a cartoon face on it. [5] Her freckled face, enthusiastic mannerisms, and use of a pigtailed hairstyle in 1944 further emphasize her air of youthfulness. [6] However, she can be quite vicious depending on her mood, ruthlessly killing the zombified crew of the Eagle along with their vampiric captain. [7] She is frequently seen grinning evilly when using her musket to shoot down incoming enemies as well. [8] [9] [10] [11] [12]
She enjoys singing and operas , with her favorite being Der Freischütz . [13] [14] According to The Major, she is very much like the character of Caspar, including her personality and her choice of weapon  - in fact, The Major once told to be wary because he felt that she would even meet her end in the same way as Caspar; slain and devoured as punishment for her sins by Zamiel . [15]
Perhaps as a direct consequence of this, Rip Van is utterly terrified of Alucard , who she equates with Zamiel, the " Black Huntsman " who eventually kills Caspar at the end of Der Freischütz . [16] Notably, Rip Van sensed Alucard's approach long before he actually arrives on the Eagle , and immediately begins panicking. [17] [18] She also exhibits extreme reluctance to fight Alucard, only briefly gathering herself when she remembers The Major asking her how she would act when faced with impending death. [19] [20]

Vernedead was a man of slightly above-average height and build, with ginger hair and green eyes. His hair was messy, thick and tied up in a long braid, which he sometimes curled around his neck. He had sharp features and supported a bandage on the bridge of his nose. His right eye appears to be damaged, so he covered it with bandages up to the events of Rio; where he replaced the bandages with a black eyepatch instead. [6] [7]
He wore a dark beige t-shirt under a brown military jacket with its sleeves rolled up to his shoulder. The jacket's collar supported many badges and a flag. Upon being employed in the Hellsing Organisation, Vernedead's jacket supported the Hellsing badge. He also wore baggy military pants with a belt, and a pair of black boots. Perhaps his most notable accessories were his slouched hat with the Wild Geese badge. He also wore an orangish-red folded scarf.

Initially, Vernedead was portrayed as a narrow-minded and somewhat shallow, pervert whose sole pursuit was that of gaining money, and therefore proved to be an experienced, excellent mercenary. [8] His carefree attitude is shown whenever the members of the Wild Geese feel like they are in a hopeless situation, where Vernedead soon lightens up the mood and motivates his men. [9] [10] He's charismatic in his speeches, and he treats his Wild Geese members as actual, close friends rather than nameless soldiers. [11] [12] However, whenever the time does seem bleak, Vernedead could be quite serious. [13] [14]
However his sarcastic nature greatly overshadowed his battle intellect, leading some to greatly underestimate him for the genius he was in strategy and tactics. [15] He's prideful, and despite being portrayed as a womanizer, Vernedead was loyal especially towards Seras, whom he told his crew that if they ever let a woman like her die, then they'd be a disgrace, something his crew agrees with. [16] His playful and carefree attitude, along with his great leadership, is what drove the Wild Geese to be incredibly loyal towards Vernedead. [17]
A man with respect and honor, Vernedead admitted that his concern with the battle was not out of money, but for revenge over the innocent civilians of London, despite it being a city that he hates, does not deserve to partake in a bloody " war " they had nothing to do with; stating that Millennium 's act of bombing and turning London into something synonymous with hell is an act he couldn't forgive. Though shallow and perverted on the surface, Vernedead was kind at heart; forcing himself to eat a cuisine he found to be so " greasy " because he didn't want to break an old lady's heart. [18]
Vernedead was also a compulsive smoker. He was shown with a cigarette hanging in his mouth even in death. [19] Seras also commented on this by saying " Would you please stop smoking cigarettes inside me? ." [20]

Walsh was the second oldest member of the Round Table in 1999, just behind Sir Irons. He has a white, messy mullet slicked to the back and a very long goatee of the same color. In different colors, his eyebrows are brown. His pupils are colored bright gold. Under a military commander suit with many badges across, Walsh wore a white turtle neck shirt. His outfit is finished with military pants and boots, along with a red beret. In 2029, Walsh now wears glasses.

Walsh appears as a sarcastic, smug, and easygoing military commander who has experienced much in his long life. Even when declaring revenge over Millennium , Walsh retains his smirk in contrast to Irons' intense look. However, he is capable of being shocked and speechless as Irons deduces the traitor that's been right under their noses all along. [2] By 2029, Walsh still act as he did back in 1999, just now more calm. [3] Much like many other characters in Hellsing , Walsh seems to be a compulsive smoker. In 2029, he's shown to be smoking a pipe rather than a cigarette. [4] [5]

Heinkel has neck length, straw-colored hair, and grey-green eyes. She dresses in the priest uniform of the Iscariot Organization and wears glasses. Occasionally she is seen smoking a cigarette. Heinkel is usually seen with two pistols as her preferred weapon. After The Captain shoots her through the face, she wears medical bandages around her nose, cheeks, and chin and continues to wear them for the 30 following years. [5] The shot from The Captain damaged her vocal cords, as she is now speaking with a more masculine voice. Furthermore, she also becomes more impulsive.

Initially, Heinkel appears as a calm and fearless person. [6] [7] Though on the surface she keeps a serious demeanor, she isn't susceptible to making humorous comments in the face of her enemies, such as mocking them before their deaths. [8] In Crossfire , how both Yumie and Heinkel deal with urgent situations in a bloody and disastrous manner constantly gets them into trouble with Maxwell . [9] Nevertheless, they remain on good terms. [10] Her calm demeanor was lost ever since Yumie's death at the hands of Walter and her vocal cords being damaged by The Captain. She appears to be more compulsive and angered, lusting for revenge. [11]

Pip's grandfather is an old man with bright green eyes that almost seem to glow. His hair is white with age, fringed on both sides, and his skin is the slightest bit tan. His features are sharp, somewhat prominent, and he is wrinkled around the eyes and mouth, again with age.

Not much can be said from how much is shown, but Pip's grandfather was not ashamed of having been a mercenary nor being from a long line of them. If anything, he is amused at his grandson's being upset over it. From the way he described killing, it could be said he is unattached and cold, at least to the job. Despite this, he does comfort Pip by telling him the truth of their family, being mercenaries since his (Pip's) "grandpa's grandpa's grandpa's grandpa." His acceptance extends to knowing his son died being a mercenary though his speech implies he has some complex feelings with being a mercenary, acknowledging that the idea of fighting for fun is something too horrible to admit.


Hensuki: Are you willing to fall in love with a pervert, as long as she’s a cutie?

Airi has long beige hair that is usually tied up in twin-tails laced with two pink flower-like ribbons/pink flower-shaped barrets in her hair and orange eyes.

Because of a traumatic experience in Airi's past, which turned in fear, she is very cold towards men that she is said to be a Tsundere because of her difference in treatment between men and women.

Keiki is an average looking teenage boy with blue/purple hair and eyes. He has described himself as not the most good-looking guy when comparing himself to Shouma Akiyama whilst asking why he would be given a love letter in the first place.
He usually wears his school uniform but can also be seen wearing smart/casual clothing when on dates and casual clothing when at home.

Keiki is a kind-hearted, friendly and considerate guy who cares for his close friends and family, and is, in turn, cared for and liked just as much by them. His kindness is pointed out by Shouma Akiyama as his good trait as to why girls would have a reason to like or love him.
Keiki also wants a girlfriend and is annoyed by the many couples he sees and is quite envious of them.
He cares very much for his sister Mizuha Kiryuu and spoils her with affection to which he is described by Mao Nanjou as being a sis-con to which he retorts as just being the natural way a big brother should show affection for his little sister.
He also has a rare trait as a harem protagonist as he is not very dense. He has been able to figure out the feelings some girls hold for him in some respect but did not know their perverted sides. He also seems to have quite a bit of confidence/courage when interacting with the girls as shown when he confronts Sayuki Tokihara about her secret (which he thinks is her romantic feelings for him). He is quite assertive when it comes to finding out who is in love with him.
He may not be dense, but he has a hard time understanding the emotions of girls and doesn't seem to completely grasp the situation. He also believes that there should be 'love' behind his acceptance of the girl's true nature towards him.


Koharu is a small and petite looking girl who is often said to be beautiful and rabbit-like with somewhat wavy waist-length light bluish-white hair that is often in low pigtails by two black ribbons with bangs hanging over her eyebrows and cyan-blue eyes. Despite being the lolita character, she is actually in her third year.
She usually wears her school uniform with an orange bunny hoodie over the top.

Koharu is often described as rabbit-like girl who has a graceful personality.
She is revealed to be in love with Shouma Akiyama as she is shown to have taken photos of Shouma and she appears to be somewhat of a stalker who goes as far as blackmailing Keiki Kiryuu into helping her get close to his best friend or act as the "cupid" for them as Otori describes.


Mao is an attractive girl with chin-length reddish-brown hair and reddish-hazel eyes.
She usually wears her school uniform with baggy socks, and has a green/blue ribbon tied to her hair.

Mao is somewhat of an introvert, she's quiet, passive and is a bit of a loner. The only person she is seen talking to in class is Keiki Kiryuu whom she most likely has romantic feelings towards. However, she is shown to be quite open with Keiki and gives him advice as well as acts like a tsundere towards him at times.


Mizuha is an attractive and cute girl with neck-length light-brown hair and blue eyes.
She is normally seen wearing her school uniform, but she also wears normal clothes at home.

Mizuha is a kind and cheerful girl who acts somewhat airheaded and cute at times. She is good at giving different types of advice to Keiki Kiryuu and she cares for him dearly that she enjoys being pampered by him.
She appears to be a normal girl who gets along well with her brother, but she is later shown to be deeply in love with him and a pervert, as she is an exhibitionist who not only strips in her brother's room but also does not wear her panties to school on a regular basis.
After it was revealed that she is an exhibitionist, her approaches to Keiki’s affection become much more aggressive and more constantly than Sayuki Tokihara , Yuika Koga and Mao Nanjou .
It's been noted that Mizuha's actually very popular with the boys at school and has been confessed to multiple times, but she turned them all down.


Sayuki has long, flowing blackish-gray hair with bangs, adorned with a red headband that has a ribbon bow on the side. Her eyes are large and golden-yellow, giving her an expressive look. She is wearing a pink blazer with a white shirt underneath and a red bow tie at the collar, typical of a school uniform.
Her skirt is a blue and purple plaid pattern, pleated and short, adding to the classic schoolgirl aesthetic. She also has thigh-high dark stockings that complement her outfit, paired with brown loafers.

On the outside, Sayuki is a mature upperclassman who has a playful attitude and a kind spirit. She enjoys calligraphy and tends to make a huge mess whenever she is writing. She always seems to be at odds with Yuika Koga and teases/picks on her, the same goes both ways.
However deep down, Sayuki is actually a huge masochistic pervert who has a fetish for being dominated and wants Keiki Kiryuu to make her his pet. She proclaimed that she was envious of a dog and owner whom she interacted with as she wants to have that master-pet relationship with Keiki.
It is shown that Sayuki actually does not enjoy doing calligraphy, but enjoys the company of others in the club. This is why she is protective of it and was desperate in finding a new member after her upperclassmen left.
However, she almost dropped her intention of protecting the club when Yuika pointed out that Keiki—who was temporarily a member of the student council to prevent the club from disbanding—had every right to join the student council as a full-fledged member. This implies that Sayuki wants to protect the club where she can spend time with Keiki.


Shouma has blonde hair that has bangs hanging on the right side with a brown x-shaped hairclip on the left side and hazel-colored eyes.
He is usually seen wearing his school uniform.

Shouma is a cool and friendly man who has a very close and playful relationship with Keiki Kiryuu .


Yuika is a short, petite girl with blonde neck-length hair and green eyes. She has been described by Keiki as the cutest thing he has ever seen. She is usually seen wearing her uniform, a green ribbon on her head, and a pair of knee-length white socks.

On the outside she is a cute and outgoing girl who is playful with her friends, especially Keiki. She can sometimes be childish and jealous when Keiki is around other girls, she especially does not like it when it is Sayuki . She does not get along with her and is always picking on her, the same going both ways.
However on the inside Yuika is actually a huge sadist. She wants to dominate Keiki and wishes for him to become her slave and she his master, the polar opposite to Sayuki.
Even though she gets along well with the members of the calligraphy club, Yuika didn't have any friends before her meeting with Keiki. Her grandmother had passed away and Yuika was almost all the time alone in the library. People avoided talking to her, and so did she, because of her foreign looks and cold attitude, which resulted in her not being part of any groups. It is only thanks to Keiki, who talked with her, that she was able to make friends later.

Abiko is a short girl who sports short and messy dark purple hair with lighter highlights. Her eyes are dark purple and go to a more pink colour lower on. Her pupils are very light pink, almost white, and are in the shape of a line. Abiko's lips are small and not very colorful. In her meeting with Yoriko, she wore overalls and a dark long-sleeved dress. A coat and a skirt were what she dressed in when visiting the stage of her manga.

Abiko is seen as the definition of an introvert. She never talked much with her colleagues as an assistant. Yoriko saw how she felt inside through the art she made, seeing that she was suffering and wanting to be understood. Reaching out to Abiko, she concluded that she's actually affectionate, sweet, and becomes passionate when manga comes into the conversation.
However, after Tokyo Blade became serialized, Abiko only knew success, and thus, grew an ego. She saw herself as infallible and often conflicted with her editors, using her busy schedules as excuses for inappropriate behavior, much like any other successful mangaka. Abiko also had several assistants but would tell them harsh things that would cause them to quit, leaving her to work on her manga by herself and wear down her health.
When Tokyo Blade began its first rehearsal for its 2.5 stage play adaptation, Abiko visited and requested a complete overhaul of the script, offended by the flanderization of her characters and threatened to end the production if she was not allowed to rewrite the script herself. She further insulted its screenwriter Goa and demanded his removal from the production entirely. It is later revealed by Yoriko that Abiko's behavior is a coping mechanism for her to avoid communication and that Abiko actually wishes to form relationships with others but struggles to, which Abiko herself admits.
At Yoriko's advice, Abiko begins learning to collaborate more with others, starting by working alongside Goa to create a new script for the Tokyo Blade stage play that they both enjoy.

Ai was a beautiful and quite thin girl with gradient-colored eyes from purple to pink and a six-pointed star in each of her eyes. She was shown to have brownish-red hair on the first chapter cover, but it is shown to have more of a blue-purplish hair color on the volume cover.
Her idol outfit was adorned in a pink aesthetic of varying degrees of lighter and darker shades. The outfit's design has an overall ruffled appearance. A black belt is located on her waist, and other miscellaneous accessories are present throughout the design: three blue stars on her chest, a heart-shaped necklace on her neck and a bunny hairpin accentuated by two gold stars and a pink ribbon.

When Ai was very young, her mother Ayumi Hoshino was arrested on a theft charge, and even after her release, she did not care enough to raise Ai anymore, which made her grow up in an orphanage. The environment she suffered being with her abusive mother caused her to think of ways to protect herself. Ai lacked any memory of loving or ever being loved herself, - prominently shown when Ichigo Saitou scouted for idols to start a group. She believed she lacked the qualification to become due to these reasons, showcasing a lack of faith in herself. She became quickly convinced to join when Saitou told her that lying is fine and is, in fact, a desirable trait.
Thus, Ai's perspective started to shift. She convinced herself that lies are a form of love—a love harbored out of the selfish desires of both sides of the spectrum. Ai sought to find an object for her "love.". She wanted to learn how to love by telling her fans that her deceitful lies are, in fact, love. This desire also came when she bore children, but in a different context. She never once said that she loved them because being disingenuous towards them would be terrifying. Nonetheless, she was shown to enjoy her time with her children and was particularly delighted when the twins did an eye-catching performance with idol lightsticks, which stunned the entire venue.
No matter what, lies allowed her to process the world around her. Within these contexts, she never sought to make things right to the point where she was fine to face the consequences of her actions. Lies were her way of expressing love, hoping that one day they would become the truth. Only when a terrible event happened did Ai finally realize she loved her children, a genuine form of love free from impurity and dishonesty. She was relieved and satisfied to finally be able to experience these true feelings. Even before this realization, Ai had grown concerned over their wellbeing and stressed over the prospects of getting better paying jobs in order to provide for them.
According to several characters through the series, Ai had a unique charisma capable of drawing all the attention to herself when she was in the spotlight. Miyako Saitou and Taishi Gotanda commented that Ai was a very uncommon idol and probably they would never get to see anyone like her, stating that she was a rare case among countless idols who wish to be at the top. Ai was notoriously ambitious and a risk-taker to the point of recklessness, best evidenced by her intentions of both continuing her idol career and having children in secret, which was by all accounts extremely dangerous, as it would jeopardize not only her entire career but have harmful ramifications both to her company and coworkers.
When it comes to her private life outside the stage, Ai wasn't very social, and most of her relationships were with people related to the entertainment industry, showing that Ai used to be a loner. Aqua pointed out that Ai didn't have any close friendships, even among her fellow partners at B-Komachi . The seemingly bright and cheerful personality was nothing more than an act that hid her true personality.
It is noted by multiple characters that Ai had disorderly, impulsive, reckless, clumsy, and asocial behavior with a low level of education, a direct result of growing up in an abusive environment. It wouldn't be until she met her boyfriend that she would have a drastic change in attitude, acting more cheerfully, taking better care of her own appearance, acting more femininely, and reducing her self-destructive inclinations. Although said information was private, observers such as Masaya Kaburagi and Akane Kurokawa were able to correctly deduce that she had found a special someone; the latter in particular was able to observe certain character traits common amongst girls with teen pregnancies, and accurately determine that she had given birth in secret.

Airi had chest-length dark hair that was split on either side, dark-colored eyes and she wore dark-colored lipstick.

Since Airi never physically appears in the story, not much is known about her general demeanor. However, her having an affair with an 11-year-old boy indicates that she was a child molester . Also, the fact that she kept all this from her husband suggests that she was an unfaithful woman who had no qualms about cheating on him.

Akane is a teenage girl sporting a dark blue hair color with blue highlights. She is considered to be very beautiful by many people such as Ruby Hoshino [5] , Abiko Samejima , Yoriko Kichijouji [6] and Kana Arima [7] .
Before her controversy, she does not stand out according to LoveforReal ' s audience, giving the sense that neither her personality nor her looks were remarkable. However, after overcoming her controversy, she starts sporting a look akin to Ai Hoshino down to her facial expressions and eyes, including Ai's iconic star in her eyes. Over time she also grows her hair, which appears to symbolize her new style and not allow the past to drag her down. However she later admits that it was her attempt to imitate Ai for Aqua's sake and once the production for The 15 Year Lie was over, she cut her hair short again.
Her short hairstyle was reminiscent of the one she had as a child, one that resembles her past idol, Kana. It was extremely effective, as even Kana's staff and fans were duped by her strikingly similar looks.

Akane's true self is shy and quiet, which makes her a poor fit for a reality dating show, something LoveforReal ' s audience frequently notes. When people started criticizing her and sending her death threats, she became all the more reclusive and was even on the verge of committing suicide. After deciding to return to the show, Aqua Hoshino suggested that she play a character to protect herself from any backlash from potential future incidents. As a result, she took up Ai Hoshino 's personality after hearing that she was Aqua's ideal woman to thank him for saving her life and reputation.
She is very hard-working and determined with every job she gets. When looking to take on a role she makes sure to study and understand the character doing a complete background, to the point she plays it perfectly. She has been described by many as a genius actress despite being very young.
When interacting with Aqua, she displays a caring attitude towards him, which others easily pick up on. She is the only one who stays by his side after his collapse and, on multiple occasions, let herself loose in joy and sadness only in front of him. She is also prone to be convinced into doing something whenever someone invokes his name, an example being when Frill Shiranui maintained her participation in the interpersonal audition by informing her that Aqua would be co-starring in the film for which they were auditioning. On the other hand, whenever she interacts with Kana, they invariably have a fiery argument due to several reasons: their shared feelings for Aqua, Kana Arima 's jealousy of Akane's success as an actress at a time when she is yet to find any herself, Akane's disappointment that Kana (before the stage adaptation of Tokyo Blade ) had become someone happy to let others have the spotlight, and the simple fact that their personalities are polar opposites.
When they officially began dating, Akane became much more open in asking Aqua to spoil her after a busy day and appreciated him for all the small actions he made to show his feelings. For instance, Aqua would wait for her outside her workplace and reply to her texts as soon as possible while never failing to praise her for her hard work. They would also display public affection more quickly as she is willing to hold his arm when walking. All these small actions made her feel grateful and satisfied, so much so that they helped to rid her of all her worries.
In addition to her cuter aspects, Akane possesses a dangerous side as well, as shown upon discovering Aqua's secret that he joined the entertainment industry in order to get close to and kill someone. She even said she would help kill that person, justifying this by voicing her belief that Aqua must have had a strong motive, that it was not about right or wrong, and she would accept Aqua for who he was even if he was a "really bad boy". Her wish to shoulder his guilt with him and her commitment to their relationship caused Aqua to comment that she was "out of her mind".
This is reinforced after she deduces the identity of the Hoshino twins' father and tries to take matters into her own hands by investigating him on her own, even finding his office so that she can make an attempt on his life by concealing a knife in a bouquet of white roses in a similar fashion to Ai's murder. These actions stemmed from a desire to "save" Aqua by preventing contact between him and his father so that he would not have to concern himself with his revenge plot again, allowing him to spend more time with her. She also appeared to be more hurt by the fact that Aqua planted a tracking device without telling her, rather than the fact that he invaded her privacy by placing one on her at all, stating that she would have given him hundreds of them and even followed him to hell if only he had asked.
After her break up with Aqua, Akane does not hesitate to keep an eye on him in case he tried to kill Hikaru. She still cares for Aqua despite everything he put her through, and does not want him to go down a destructive path that would negatively affect him and his loved ones. It is further shown when she reflects on her wishes for him to happy.
