Liliane257 fan favorites

The titular character of the series. She is the second princess of the royalty, daughter of the king of all monsters. She appears as a young aristocratic woman wearing Gothic clothing. Her real name is Lillian but she dislikes people calling her by it. Although her siblings are busy fighting for the throne, she shows no interest in it. She resurrected Hiro on a whim after he dies, thinking him interesting enough to be her servant. She is not as arrogant as she is playful, and she does not flinch at the sight of violence. In manga she uses her vassal to resurrect warriors for the royalty (her blood) in anime she uses the flame of life. Her aristocratic nature is shown in her ability to leave hard labor to her servants without remorse. She is also not above destroying anything in her path to kill an enemy, and using any weapon at her disposal, such as a chainsaw, a defibrillator, a hammer, or various swords. Interestingly, she is only as physically strong as a normal human and sometimes requires that her servants put her out of trouble or help her defeat an enemy. She also does not hesitate to save her servants, even going as far as breaking the rules to do so. In the 'Princess Rampage' chapter of the manga, she shows a certain disgust or fright over a mouse Flandre found at the end of the chapter. She also becomes a temporary half-vampire in order to save Hiro in the manga chapter 'Princess Blood'; her relationship with Hiro remains uncertain both in anime and manga however, and it is not known if she sees Hiro as a love interest or just a soldier of the royalty.

A half-breed girl who has a werewolf father, called Volg Wildman, and a human mother. She at first believes that her older brother was murdered by Hime, but later reconciles with Hime when she learns what really happened that night. In order to find who in the Royalty instigated her brother, she stays with Hime. Being of mixed blood she can only transform her arms up to her elbow and her combat capabilities can't compare to that of a pure breed. She appears to have feelings for Hiro and has "squishy" paws according to Hiro and one of his friends. She and Reiri are natural enemies and they don't get along. Later on, from working together in the battle against Kiniski, there is change in their relationship. It was revealed that she is a virgin in her conversation with Reiri. Maybe its in the blood of werewolves that she likes the feeling of speed and for that she rides bikes and jet-skis. (Source: Wikipedia)
Reiri Kamura49 fan favorites
External profile
A female vampire who attends the same school as Hiro. She has long black hair, always dresses in a dark sailor suit, and has idol status in her school. In the manga there are many scenes showing her in black underwear but in the anime those are reduced to panty-shots. She tried to get Hime's blood but failed. Later on she is banished from the vampire society for opposing Kiniski, she is pursued by Kiniski and the other vampires, who burn down the abandoned church she was living in, therefore losing her place so she freeloads at Hime's. At first she greatly detests Riza but their relations are changing gradually. Other than the blood from Royalty she also prefers blood from virgins and cute guys. (Source: Wikipedia)
Hiro Hiyorimi20 fan favorites
External profile
A middle school boy who dies at the beginning of the series (in the manga he was hit by the station wagon Flandre is driving, whereas in the anime he is hit by a falling iron pillar). He finds himself in Hime's service as he is bound to her because her blood (flame, in the anime) revived him. Though young and not very strong, Hiro manages to assist Hime (mostly by being a human shield) through his "half-immortality" that was given to him after his resurrection. At first, he is rather involuntarily involved in the battles but as he learns more about Hime, he is willing protect her. His body changes in the manga when Hime's life is in danger which was left out in the anime.
