Description

A hikikomori and gamer who suddenly finds himself transported to another world on his way home from the convenience store. There, he meets a silver-haired half-elf girl named Emilia, and falls deeply in love with her. Upon his arrival, Subaru acquires an ability which he calls "Return by Death", that allows him to go back in time when he dies, while still retaining his memories of the previous timeline. He is unable to tell anyone about his power, because any attempt to do so causes him to black out momentarily as black hands emerge to squeeze his heart, and may even kill those around him; it also causes him to give off the "scent of the Jealous Witch", which attracts "mabeasts" (magical creatures), and is repulsive to those who can detect it.

Description

The head of Karsten house, which is known to have strong ties to the late royal family, and one of the candidates for the royal election to become the 42nd King of Lugnica. Crusch's ideal is free the country from the centuries long heavy dependency on the Dragon's guidance which she believe has led Luginca into stagnation and stripped the country's will to govern without it, betraying the hopes of the conservative ruling class who pin her as favorite to win the election. Crusch is honest, sincere, right, being a type of person who is destined to stand above others, though she has talent and has worked hard to reach where she is now. She prefers to act herself and has the pride of a warrior, but is also very dense and often believes the false knowledge jokingly told to her by Ferris, and sometimes displays an airheaded side.

Al is Priscilla's knight. Initially introduced as Priscilla's constantly abused "knight", it is soon revealed that there might be more to him, <hidden by spoiler settings>. Although very skilled at fighting due to the time spent in Vollachia, Aldebaran does not like to make enemies, as he considers that taking care of them when a problem occurs requires a lot of work, but Priscilla doesn't seem to care about this.

Al has a frivolous and goofy personality, and <hidden by spoiler settings>. Despite being Priscilla's knight, he doesn't really recognize himself as one, seeing himself as her caretaker, while Priscilla herself sees him as a handyman and a jester to entertain her. He has no qualms about their relationship. He also brags that the only way he can fight is by outwitting people and catching them by surprise.

Despite his easygoing attitude, Al is deeply affected by having a form of amnesia. Until he met Subaru he sometimes had episodes where he would think of himself as losing the plot <hidden by spoiler settings>. It's unknown how Al's amnesia came to be.

Although he hides it through his actions and words, Ferris has a severe view on death and values due to his job as a healer, leading him to hold those who no longer have any will to live in contempt from the bottom of his heart. He also hates weaklings because of his complex, causing him to hate Subaru for a while, however he lets go of his feelings against him after seeing his actions during the battle against the White Whale. He is also constantly thankful for Crusch and everything that she's done for him in her life.

Julius is Anastasia's knight and a member of the Royal Guard. He is one of Reinhard's best friends. He and Subaru initially started out on the wrong foot, due to their seemingly incompatible personalities. However, it didn't turn truly antagonistic until Subaru offended the whole Royal Knight garrison, prompting him to publicly humiliate him in a mock duel. Later on following the battle with the White Whale, their relationship got better after they both apologized.

As a member of Lugnica's nobility, Julius acts in a proper fashion, always having an air of nobility and conviction. He is also considerate and doesn't forget to show care toward others. He also shows a strict side, giving out accurate assessments of others whether they're good or bad, which is a result of his upbringing as an elite, and in actuality, he believes that he and others can do better than they currently are.

Roswaal is the lord of the Roswaal Mansion and the greatest magician in Lugnica. He comes across as an eccentric due to his flamboyant appearance and odd speaking style, the latter which he shares with his grandmother. However, he harbors a more calculating and reserved side with a sharp political mind and gaze that reads others quite well.

Roswaal cares about his main maids, Ram and Rem a great deal and holds them in high regard among his staff. However, he is unusual among the nobility for having such close relations with Demi-humans to the point that many are hired by him. This has led to unsavory rumors that have suggested he has a fetish for them.

Description

Wilhelm is a member of the Crusch Camp and Reinhard's grandfather. Aside from being Crusch's servant, he also acts as her sword instructor. In his youth, he fought in the Demi-Human War, where he earned the title of Sword Devil. After his wife Theresia was killed by the White Whale, he vowed to avenge her.

Wilhelm is a refined man with a highly gentle and humble demeanor. However, underneath that even temperament is a fierce warrior who often is the first to help when something happens. This wasn't always the case, as in his youth, Wilhelm was the very opposite of who he was in his later years.: brash, afoot, short tempered, lonely, and often cold with others. He was a troubled individual who devoted himself wholly to the sword and cared for little else. Even so, he knew how to analyze a situation, always finding a way out. Nonetheless, Theresia greatly influenced his personality, which caused him to become increasingly sociable and protective, achieving more results during the Demi-human War. It was through her most of all that he would become the person he is today.
