* AgeInsecurity: When Akari asks how old Sophie is, Sophie realizes she's around 360 years old, gets embarrassed and insists a girl's age should be a secret. She prefers to think of herself as a "forever thirteen".

* BloodCountess: {{Parodied|Trope}}. Ellie is obviously based on UsefulNotes/ElizabethBathory, being a vampire girl who takes baths in human blood to make herself beautiful. However, all these traits are played for pure comedy since she doesn't have to kill humans for their blood in the modern era. Still, Sophie gets annoyed when Ellie uses their blood bags as skincare products.



* NoHistoricalFiguresWereHarmed: It's heavily implied without being explicitly stated that Ellie is UsefulNotes/ElizabethBathory. Her age matches how old Elizabeth would be in modern days if she was immortal, she is more comfortable writing Hungarian than Japanese, she seems to be familiar with torture devices like the IronMaiden, and she likes to [[BloodBath bathe in blood]], one of the most famous myths about the countess.

* {{NEET}}: Sophie's lifestyle is basically sleeping all day and staying up all night surfing the internet or watching anime. Well, she ''did'' try going to school once, but it had so many inconveniences for a vampire that she gave up on it.

[[folder:Sophie Twilight]]
--> '''Voiced by''': Creator/MiyuTomita

[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sofi_standing.png]]

Sophie is a 360-year-old vampire girl who loves manga and otaku goods.
----
* AwesomeMcCoolname: Anyone would like to have a cool-sounding surname like Twilight.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Sophie is a vampire, which at heart are nocturnal creatures who are WeakenedByTheLight, but she's otherwise a very kind soul.
* DefrostingIceQueen: At the beginning, Sophie was used to living alone and didn't personally care that Akari wanted to be her friend, treating her as a mild nuisance.
* FriendlessBackground: Akari brings up [[WhoWantsToLiveForever how it must be hard for Sophie to never age]] and watch how all her friends and lovers grew old and passed away. But Sophie takes offense to this, as she never had any friends or lovers.
* FriendlyNeighbourhoodVampire: Sophie is a sweet-natured vampire who lives by herself in a big mansion, drinks blood delivered from a blood bank, and wouldn't hurt anyone (she finds sucking blood from people scary, for reference). Instead she's basically an {{otaku}} with shades of {{Hikikomori}} (although she does go out on walks or to get books signed) - sleeps all day, watches anime all night.
* FriendshipDenial: She denies that Ellie is her friend, insisting that she's just an acquaintance since Ellie just comes in and out of her life as she pleases. After Ellie moves to her neighborhood, they hang out more often and Sophie more or less accepts her as a friend.
* IJustWantToHaveFriends: Although she had convinced herself that she was alright with having no friends and living alone, Sophie didn't really protest to Akari wanting to be her friend and moving in with her. When she visits Hinata's house, Sophie is overjoyed that she's visiting a friend's house for the first time.
* LonerTurnedFriend: Sophie lived over 300 years without a single true friend (Ellie didn't really count because she never hanged out with her for long). After meeting Akari, Sophie gets her own group of friends to hang out with.
* MonsterRoommate: She's a vampire girl who winds up living with a human girl who decided to move to Sophie's mansion on a whim.
* MysticalWhiteHair: She's an immortal vampire girl with silvery white hair.
* {{NEET}}: Sophie's lifestyle is basically sleeping all day and staying up all night surfing the internet or watching anime.
* OccidentalOtaku: She's a Western vampire who has become immersed in {{Otaku}} culture since arriving to Japan.
* OtakuSurrogate: Sophie spends all her waking hours watching anime and purchasing otaku merchandise (and sometimes going out for walks).
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Despite having the body of a little girl, Sophie is so strong that she can lift up a road roller with a ''single arm''.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: She always looks thirteen because she became a vampire at that age, but she's 360 years old.
* RedOniBlueOni: Sophie is the calmer, more reserved blue to Akari's excitable and enthusiastic red.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Sophie is levelheaded, sensible, and composed so she doesn't show to care about others very obviously. She does grow to appreciate Akari's and their friends' presence in her life and treats them very nicely.
* VampireLolitaArchetype: Sophie is a 360-year-old vampire who looks like a cute 13-year-old girl with long silvery white hair and red eyes. She always wears black ElegantGothicLolita-style dresses because it's easier to get the blood out of dark clothes.
* VegetarianVampire: Sophie gets all the blood she drinks from a blood bank.
* VerbalTic: Sophie says "Umah" regularly.

[[folder:Akari Amano]]
--> '''Voiced by''': Yuu Sasahara

[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/akari_standing.png]]

A school girl who begins living with Sophie upon meeting her. She keeps a collection of dolls and is particularly fond of Sophie due to her doll-like appearance.
----
* CovertPervert: She had to make excuses to herself while saying she had "no indecent motives" apart from bringing shampoo when she was about to see Ellie's naked body in the bath.
* CutenessProximity: Akari gets this reaction whenever she's around the doll-like Sophie ''almost all the time''.
* TheDefroster: It's Akari's persistence to befriend Sophie, even moving in with her, what brings Sophie out of her shell after 360 years of loneliness and makes her open up to their circle of friends.
* DoggedNiceGirl: Akari is immediately infatuated with Sophie so she keeps visiting her house until Sophie lets her move in with her. When Sophie agrees, Akari hopes they get married in the future.
* FirstFriend: She's Sophie's first official friend. Sophie did meet Ellie first, but they were never formally friends until Ellie moved into the neighborhood and they started hanging out more often.
* GirlOnGirlIsHot: Akari's reaction after hearing that [[LesbianVampire Ellie]] wants to suck Sophie's blood is to look for her camera. She's terribly disappointed that she missed the show when she comes back with her camera.
* HorrifyingTheHorror: PlayedForLaughs. Akari manages to creep out Sophie (unintentionally) with drooping smile she gets sometimes with CutenessProximity. It's even lampshaded in the anime ''by Akari herself''. On another point, Sophie is scared of ghosts, despite being a vampire. On a much minor note, Akari also managed to weird out Ellie by responding to her attack/assault declaration (it's implied she took it as getting her blood sucked) with excitement.
* ImTakingHerHomeWithMe: Akari acts this way towards Sophie. Though rather of taking her home, she decides to live in Sophie's home instead. Sophie doesn't seem to mind.
* LipstickLesbian: Akari harbors a very obvious crush on Sophie, finding her [[ImTakingHerHomeWithMe to be]] [[CutenessProximity adorable]] like the dolls that Akari loves so much and imagining herself and Sophie getting married when Sophie allowed her to stay in her house. She also gushes about wanting to pet her and comb her hair.
* LoveAtFirstSight: She's smitten with Sophie from the moment she first sees her because Sophie is small and cute like the dolls Akari loves.
* NightmareFetishist: A vampire girl who doesn't need to breathe and has no body temperature? Akari thinks she's adorable because she's like a living doll! A creepy doll that can grow hair on its own? Akari finds that adorable too!
* ObliviousToLove: It's crystal clear that Hinata likes Akari as more than a friend. Akari doesn't seem to notice that.
* RedOniBlueOni: Akari is the excitable and enthusiastic red to Sophie's calmer, more reserved blue.

* BerserkButton: She hates being called small or a kid becuse it reminds her that she won't ever become an adult.
* CosmeticCatastrophe: Ellie likes wearing makeup, but that's kind of a problem when [[MissingReflection she can't see herself in the mirror]]. She needs Akari's help to look presentable with makeup.
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: As Ellie has been sleeping for a hundred years (she fell asleep in 1914), Sophie anticipates she's not ready for the modern world and that she wouldn't be allowed to freely go out biting little girls (or what is a computer).
* FriendlyNeighbourhoodVampire: She easily accepts that humans aren't hunting vampires anymore and that she shouldn't be preying on humans like before. Once Akari and Hinata show her they're good people, Ellie befriends them and enjoys hanging out with them very much.
* HopelessWithTech: She simply can't try using a computer without breaking it.
* ImmortalImmaturity: Ellie is 450 years old, but acts like a bratty child.
* LesbianVampire: Ellie unilaterally declares herself to be Sophie's girlfriend, forcefully sucks her blood and tries to kiss her on the lips. According to herself, when she bit people, she specifically chose females based on their appearance and personality... and she is shown to be rather annoyed with the fact that she can't go around biting people anymore.
* LipstickLesbian: She wears cute dresses, loves makeup and rubbing blood on her skin to look beautiful, and most of all, loves drinking the blood of pretty girls.
* NoFullNameGiven: She's only ever called Ellie while every other character has a known surname. Considering all the hints, however, her full name could be Elizabeth Báthory.
* NoHistoricalFiguresWereHarmed: It's heavily implied without being explicitly stated that Ellie is UsefulNotes/ElizabethBathory. Her age matches how old Elizabeth would be in modern days if she was immortal, she is more comfortable writing Hungarian than Japanese, she seems to be familiar with torture devices like the IronMaiden, and she likes to [[BloodBath bathe in blood]], one of the most famous myths about the countess.

* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: She looks around thirteen like Sophie, but she's even older than her, being 450 years old.
