History Characters / VampirePrincessMiyu

* KnifeNut: [[spoiler: Her WeaponOfChoice is the dagger that her dead older brother Tokiya gave her as a TragicKeepsake.]]

* IllGirl: [[spoiler: Horrible, heartbreaking subversion. She was thought to be in a ConvenientComa, but she actually was under DemonicPossession ''and'' a DealWithTheDevil]]

* IllGirl: Subverted. Peple think that Yui has severe anemia, but the truth is that her Guardian powers have just awakened and, since she had no real idea of what was going on, she lacked of the blood she needed. (It's not helped by how Yui refuses to drink blood from humans if she can help it, so her BattleButler Nagi gives her his blood instead.)

* CryCute: [[spoiler: He can finally cry as he dies and is sent to the Darkness.]]

* IHaveTheHighGround: Loves to do this in all continuities, often over a torii.

* GoodIsNotNice: She does what she can, and occasionally feels regret for those she can't help, but in the end her job is to banish Shinma and absolutely not to protect or save people. She's not above using mortals as bait or even killing them to get to Shinma, if necessary. The OVA turns this UpToEleven and make her almost a NominalHero.

%%* {{Meganekko}}

%%* ShesGotLegs: And her {{Qipao}} allows her to show them off nicely.

%%* SpotOfTea

%%* BeautyMark: Under her right eye

* {{Seers}}: More specifically, if you look into his sort-of EvilEye, you can see stuff that is normally invisible.

%%* RomanticTwoGirlFriendship: She and Yui.

%%* StuffedIntoTheFridge:

%%* StuffedIntoTheFridge:

* StarCrossedlovers: [[spoiler: With Ranka. [[SubvertedTrope They find a way to stay together]].]]

* OdangoHair: She wears her hair like this during a ball, [[KimonoIsTraditional alongside a dark-colored and fancy kimono.]]

* AdaptationalWimp: Perhaps because it focuses on her more vulnerable and human side, the TV series downplays heavily her manipulative skills and array of vampiric powers, and instead has her angsting a lot, using only her fire powers in combat, and needing rescue by Larva more often. However, she does not need anymore to spell the name of the Shinma in order to seal them as in the OVA, although it might be more of a thing of the series's dynamics than her own skillset.

* OurVampiresAreDifferent: She is a rather powerful and atypical kind, as she has several of the classical vampire powers yet apparently none of their usual weaknesses (and given that her mother didn't have them either, it cannot be attributed to Miyu being a {{Dhampyr}}). She doesn't have even fangs or an uncontrollable need for blood, and it seems to be impossible to physically differentiate her from a regular human girl if not by her abilities. Additionally, she has the ability to leave her victims in perpetual dream trances, something even less common in vampire lore.

* YourSizeMayVary: His height is not easy to measure due to his long robe and levitating powers, but it varies between continuities and even scenes judging for whenever he stands behind Miyu. He is sometimes just relatively tall by western standards, while other times he genuinely looks like a 8 ft giant.

* CanonImmigrant: He was an addition to the TV series, likely to capitalize the MonsSeries fad of the nineties. However, after the series aired, he "appeared" in the manga in the form of a key chain with his exact shape, with Miyu commenting it looked like a plushie named Shiina she used to have. He finally ended up making proper appearances as himself.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: For unknown reasons, he was replaced by an almost identical character named Garline in the TV series.

* AdaptationOriginConnection: In the anime series, she was merely a mook of Garline. In her incorporation to the manga in 1998, she became a relative to Larva, specifically a cousin to him and sister to Carua.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: To Lemures, playing the same role, having Lilith as his associate and even being physically similar to him.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Like Miyu, her attire doesn't include footwear. She even wears shin wraps in a sort of reference to Miyu's foot ribbon.

%%* {{Otaku}}: He is called one.

%%* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: To Lemures.

[[folder: Characters from the manga and/or Drama CD's]]

* AdaptationalJerkass: She was made incredibly creepy and smug in the OVA, whereas the manga had established her as only mildly cold, and most of it to mask some inner insecurities.
* AdaptationalWimp: Perhaps because it focuses on her more vulnerable and human side, the TV series downplays a lot her manipulative skills and array of vampiric powers, and instead has her angsting, using only her fire powers and needing rescue by Larva more often. However, she does not need anymore to spell the name of the Shinma in order to seal them as in the OVA, although it might be more of a thing of the series's dynamics than her own skillset.
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: Her personality varies greatly between continuities. In the OVA, Miyu is portrayed as a twisted, whimsical trickster who presents herself in a grandiloquent manner and enjoys toying with people. In stark contrast, the TV series shows her as serious, collected and soft-spoken, as well as much more caring and kind-hearted, and definitively more of a conventional hero. Her original manga personality, finally, could be considered an intermediate step between both, albeit featuring a certain amount of sensitivity and self-doubt that is not present in any.

* BadassInDistress: When captured by Lemures in the third OVA.

* FemmeFatalons: A rare ''male'' example.

* BrokenBird: Miyu's mother

* ForgotAboutHisPowers: It's shown that he has a form of offensive AntiMagic spell, but he only does it exactly once in the TV series, despite it would have been pretty useful at several other instances.

* RidiculouslyCuteCritter
* {{Seers}}: More exactly, if you look into his sort-of EvilEye, you can see stuff that is normally invisible.

* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: While neither Miyu nor Reiha acknowledges it explicitly, the latter has proved to be able to overpower consistently the former.

* GoodIsNotNice: Reiha fights the runaway Shinmas and all, but she's ''not'' concerned with the bystanders at all (whereas Miyu sometimes gets PetTheDog moments towards them and values the few human friends she ''does'' have) and openly antagonizes Miyu.

* SquishyWizard: Even more than Miyu, as she remains mostly stationary when fighting and her ice magic seems to be stronger than Miyu's fire powers (or at least to be used more liberally).
* UncannyValleyGirl

* AdaptationDyeJob: Was a EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette in the manga, then became a DarkSkinnedBlond in the OVA.

* CanonImmigrant: She appeared first in the TV series, appearing as an ally to Garline, and later in the manga, where she worked with Carua and Lemnia (the latter being the younger brother of Lemures, the manga character Garline was based on).

* AdaptationalHeroism: She becomes an ally to Miyu in the manga, which never happens in the OVA, where she is first introduced.
* AndIMustScream: [[spoiler:What she does to her victims, via transforming them into mannequins.]]
* BecomingTheMask: [[spoiler:OVA. She pretended to like Kei to make him her prey. But then, [[InloveWithTheMark she fell for real for him]].]]

* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: Very pretty, pale and dark-haired -- and ''so incredibly creepy''.

!Characters from the OVA

* CanonForeigner: Created especially for the OVA's, though Creator/MamiKoyama also is the narrator of the CD dramas.

* DistractedFromDeath: [[spoiler:He left Ryoko near the bridge she had to cross to go home. The moment he turned to walk away, Ra-en/Baku killed her.]]

%%* EmptyShell: [[spoiler:After receiving Miyu's KissOfTheVampire.]]
* ILetGwenStacyDie: [[spoiler:His girlfriend Ryoko was Ra-en's first victim.]]

%%* TheGwenStacy: [[spoiler:For Miyahito.]]
%%* KillTheCutie: [[spoiler:And of course, she was the first one to go.]]

* GoodParents. [[spoiler: Or so they seem. They ''were'' this to a T when alive, see the trope below to know more.]]
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:They knew that their injuries from the accident would eventually kill them, so they begged their treating doctor to let them donate their own blood (of a pretty rare type) to their beloved daughter Aiko so she'd survive. He couldn't refuse such a request since they had no blood of said type left in the hospital ''and'' there was no time to ask for donors: in the end Aiko survived, but Mom and Dad died.]]

* NightmareFetishist: [[spoiler:He falls in love with an UncannyValleyGirl, that's all.]]

* StarCrossedlovers: [[spoiler:With Ranka. [[SubvertedTrope They find a way to stay together]].]]

%% * LaserGuidedAmnesia: [[spoilerLemures made him forget his past life.]]

* ImmortalitySeeker: [[spoiler:Asks Miyu to make her a vampire so she can be young and pretty forever. Miyu's mom stops them and sends her back home.]]
* RedHerring: [[spoiler:We're led to believe that Miyu's mom drained her of blood to feed Miyu her first blood "meal". It wasn't like that.]]

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Contrary to what it looked like, [[spoiler:no, Miyu's mother didn't kill her for blood]], but Akiko never appears again either after that.

!Characters from the TV series

* SecretKeeper: Finds out who Miyu is by accident.
%%* SacrificialLamb: [[spoiler:The first one.]]

%%* [[spoiler: UncannyValleyGirl]]
* [[spoiler: {{Yandere}}: Over her brother Tokiya, whose death triggers her transformation into a Shinma]]

* [[spoiler: KillTheCutie and StuffedIntoTheFridge: Chisato kills her and Yukari as soon as her powers awaken. In Hisae's case, Chisato does it under the effects of the Shinma Shidon's MoreThanMindControl right after she and Yukari learn the truth about Miyu; she then wakes up next to the dead Hisae and starts screaming in horror...]]

* [[spoiler: KillTheCutie - StuffedIntoTheFridge: Chisato kills her and Hisae as soon as her powers awaken.]]
** [[spoiler: S{{he knows too much}}: The exact reason. After Hisae's death, Yukari confronts Chisato ''and'' then goes to Miyu to learn what's going on. It does NOT end well, needless to say.]]

* [[spoiler: EmptyShell - FateWorseThanDeath: Since Miyu cannot undo the damage that has already been done to poor Miho, she ends up biting her and taking her blood. The last time we see the poor girl she's hospitalised, listless, completely indifferent to anything around her...]]
* [[spoiler: MagicFeather: Cruel subversion: the red shoes she was given as lucky charms... were actually a MacGuffin that absorbed her life energy.]]

%%* OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent

* [[spoiler: ChekhovsGunman: Under the disguise of an artist, he sells trinkets to Miyu and Chisato. Said trinkets actually are magical charms that keep Miyu from sensing Chisato's growing powers.]]

!Characters from the manga and/or the Drama CD's

%%* [[spoiler: BitchInSheepsClothing]]
%%* [[spoiler: TheCollector: One who collects ''girls'']]

* PassionateSportsGirl: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]]; she's only average at gymnastics but still trains despite her low talent.

* [[spoiler: TheGwenStacy: It's not exactly clear who Kaoru was for Miyu, but she clearly feels bad when she meets him as "Fumiya".]]
* [[spoiler: DemonicPossession.]]
* [[spoiler: WaifFu: Male example, as the human body he possessed was one of a highly-trained gym practitioner.]]

%%* [[spoiler: BecomingTheMask: Mari wasn't supposed to fall for Kyo...]]

%%* [[spoiler: MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter: Two of them!]]
* [[spoiler: OurMermaidsAreDifferent: Rima, who is a full-blooded mermaid and has to live in a tank. Mari, on the other hand, is almost completely normal save for her PsychicLink with Rima.]]

* [[spoiler: TwinTelepathy: Sorta, as the locked away Rima can see the outer world through her twin sister Mari's eyes.]]

* [[spoiler: GracefulLoser: Escaped years ago from Miyu, so when she finds him again, he at first tries to cover for his girls and help them escape, but once he loses he doesn't put up much of a fight and lets Miyu vanish him.]]
* [[spoiler: InterSpeciesRomance: With the twins's mom, a mermaid.]]

* [[spoiler: CryCute: He can finally cry as he dies and is sent to the Darkness.]]

* [[spoiler: PeoplePuppets: A Shinma transformed a ChristmasCake lady and Miyu's school friends into traditional dolls... and re-created him and his dad, resurrecting them. [[MindScrew Sorta.]].]]

* AnimalsHateHer: Ruri the bird reacts strongly to Miyu's presence.
* [[spoiler: BrotherSisterIncest: Implied between the real Ruri and her brother, Little Ruri's "father". It was ''at least'' one-sided canon from his side.]]
* [[spoiler: HalfHumanHybrids: The real Ruri and her brother.]]
* [[spoiler: HappilyAdopted: After her "Papa" is banished to the Darkness, Little Ruri is adopted by the Hiyama family.]]

* [[spoiler: [[YouKilledMyFather You Killed My Younger Sister]]: Ruri's "dad" accuses Miyu of letting the real Ruri die by not biting her and thus not giving her eternal life.]]

It's kinda odd, as Sayuri was supposed to be [[LotusEaterMachine in "eternal happiness"]], but all of a sudden it was broken and then Sayuri died of grief.]]

* [[spoiler: WidowWoman: Sorta. It's all but spelled that, since her husband was a Shi, Miyu either killed or banished him and then bit Sayuri to both have her blood and relieve her from pain. People believe that he died in an accident, however.]]

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/vpmiyu_1347.jpg

* HairDecorations: Her headband.

* WomanInWhite: When in her white kimono.

* UncannyValleyGirl: Her calm, somewhat ethereal demeanor is present in all version of her character.

* AbledInTheAdaptation: Inverted. The OVA states his face and voice were sealed away, so he cannot speak nor remove his mask. In the TV series and original manga, he can do both, alhough still rarely does.

* BodyguardCrush: Depending on the continuity, her bond with Miyu is sometimes portrayed as romantic in nature.

* CanonImmigrant: He was an addition to the TV series, likely to capitalize the MonsSeries fad of TheNineties. However, after the series aired, he "appeared" in the manga in the form of a key chain with his exact shape, with Miyu commenting it looked like a plushie named Shiina she used to have. He finally ended up making proper appearances as himself.

* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: While neither Miyu nor Reiha acknowledge it explicitly, the latter has proved to be able to overpower consistently the former.

* GoodIsNotNice: Reiha fights the runaway Shinmas and all, but she's ''not'' concerned with the bystanders at all (whereas Miyu sometimes gets PetTheDog moments towards them and values the few human friends she ''does'' have) and openly antagonises Miyu.

* CanonForeigner: Created specially for the OVA's, though Creator/MamiKoyama also is the narrator of the CD dramas.

* InspectorJavert: She wants to hunt down Miyu, believing her to be a theat to humanity. She's not exactly wrong, but the thing is that humanity would be even more screwed without Miyu.

* DistractedFromDeath: [[spoiler:He left Ryoko near the bridge she hadto cross to go home. The moment he turned to walk away, Ra-en/Baku killed her.]]

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Both are shown either fully barefoot (the father) or wearing only ''tabi'' socks (the mother). Justified, not only they're only seen inside a very traditional house where being barefoot is a requiremet, but they're wearing kimonos.

* FilleFatale: Looks like a highschooler, yet behaves like her [[UsefulNotes/{{Lilith}} namesake]].

* PuppetMaster

* DoesNotLikeShoes: She is barefoot whenever she goes hunting, sporting a red ribbon around her right foot or nothing at all. The OVA and manga imply she adopted the habit because she was unshod when she woke up as a vampire, while the TV series hints her white hunting kimono without footwear is a sort of uniform for her kind. In any case, she has been this way over both snow and burning sands, so she clearly does not care about it. It may cross also into UndeadBarefooter considering she is a vampire.

* OurVampiresAreDifferent: She is a rather powerful and atypical kind, as she has several of the classical vampire powers yet shows none of their usual weaknesses (and given that her mother didn't have them either, it cannot be attributed to Miyu being a {{Dhampyr}}). She doesn't have even fangs or an uncontrollable need for blood, and seems to be impossible to differentiate from a regular human girl if not by her abilities. Additionally, she has the ability to leave her victims in perpetual dream trances, something even less common in vampire lore.

* VegetarianVampire: Downplayed. She is picky about her victims, does not drink that much quantity (this might be because she is pretty petite) and the side effect of her bites sometimes helps people, but she still drinks blood and has no compunctions about it. Her mother wanted her to become a more proper example, but this was not possible.

* AbsurdlySharpClaws: His main weapon are his red long fingernails, which can cut even through energy attacks.

* FemmeFatalons: Rare ''male'' example.
* PlayingWithFire: He shares Miyu's fire powers due to his servant bond with her, but doesn't like to use it because it brings him bad mrmories.

* YourSizeMayVary: His height is not easy to measure due to his long robe and levitating powers, but it varies between continuities and even scenes judging for whenever he stands behind Miyu. He is sometimes just relatively tall by western standards, while other times he genuinely looks like a 10 ft giant.

* AntiMagic: His eye can nullify enemy spells in an offensive way, although he only does it once in the TV series.
* CanonImmigrant: He was an addition to the TV series, likely to capitalize the mon fad of TheNineties. After the series aired, he "appeared" in the manga in the form of a key chain with his exact shape, with Miyu commenting it looked like a plushie named Shiina she used to have. He ended up making proper appearances as himself.

* AdaptationOriginConnection: In the anime series, she was merely a mook of Garline. In her incorporation to the manga in 1998, she became a relative to Larva, specifically cousin to him and sister to Carua.

* FilleFatale: Looks like a highschooler, yet behaves like her namesake.

* InspectorJavert: She wants to hunt down Miyu, believing her to be a theat to humanity.

* BookDumb: This is what their parents believe, as they berate him because his grades are not as good as his siblings' and his mother thinks he might need extracurricular classes. At the end of the day, however, it is not revealed how bad actually his grades are, and considering his siblings seem to be high-achievers, he might not be that bad. Considering he looks seriously depressed, it might even be due to a lack of motivation rather than talent.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Like Miyu.

* {{Kuudere}}: In the TV series.
