Unit: Valkyrie Affiliation: Yumenosaki Academy 3-A Club: Handicrafts Club (President) Circle: Theater Company 'Dramatica', Craft Monster Height: 177cm Weight: 59kg Blood Type: A Age: 18 Favorites: Antique dolls Dislikes: Crowded places Family: Grandfather, parents, older sister, older brother Hobbies: Visiting exhibitions and museums, socializing with artists, training Specialty: Sewing, lace knitting Catchphrase: The Noble Artist Idol Short pink hair and purple eyes. His uniform, both winter and summer versions, features generous ruffles at the chest. A third-year high school student. First person: I (soft, polite). Leader of the unit 'Valkyrie'. Arrogant and high-strung. An artistic soul with a high sense of aesthetics, he deeply loves beautiful things and items crafted with human care. He holds a firm belief that art is another name for humanity, a conviction born from being saved from childhood bullying by sewing and the antiques forgotten in his family's storehouse. Perhaps because of this, he shows a strong sense of antagonism toward 'society' compared to other students. Leo describes him as someone who 'creates things no ordinary person could imitate when he's angry.' While he enjoys winning and standing at the top, his works born from anger and obsession are particularly highly acclaimed. While he values his artistic world-view, he is poor at dealing with crowds and not fond of live performances aimed at the general public, a trait strongly reflected in Valkyrie. His favorite food is croissants. Mika calls him 'Oshi-san' and admires him. Shu calls Mika a 'failure' and treats him bluntly, yet it is clear he truly cherishes him. Currently, he watches over Mika's growth, wishing to stand beside him as an equal artist. Academy War Era⬇ During the Academy War era, 'Valkyrie' reigned at the top of the corrupt academy with perfect, flawless performances. Shu himself was hailed as a 'genius'. However, Shu believed that preventing failure was a form of love, so he used recordings for Nazuna's changing voice and Mika's inexperienced singing. Nazuna felt a sense of emptiness, feeling unacknowledged. Eichi (specifically, a member of the Broadcasting Committee who worshipped fine) exploited this by causing an audio accident during a live show, destroying Shu's stage. Nazuna subsequently left 'Valkyrie'. Shu was deeply traumatized and became a recluse.

Unit: Knights Affiliation: Yumenosaki Academy 3-B Club: Tea Club Circle: Tea Party (Flavor), Craft Monster Height: 170cm Weight: 54kg Blood Type: AB Age: 18 Birthday: September 22 Favorites: Eye masks Dislikes: Disturbed sleep, garlic Family: Parents, older brother Hobbies: Making sweets, sleeping Specialty: Sleeping anywhere, piano Catchphrase: The Vampire Knight Watching Over the Night Always looks sleepy and speaks languidly. Nocturnal and loves sleeping; he can be found napping anywhere at any time. He repeated a year due to excessive sleeping in class and tardiness, but he doesn't mind. He likes being pampered and often calls people his own age 'Big Brother'. Rei Sakuma, a third-year, is his biological brother, but Ritsu treats him coldly. He dislikes others getting involved in his business. Black hair. His hair is long at the nape, styled like a wolf cut. His sleepy eyes are red. Both his hair and eye color match his brother's. He has a small, delicate build for a second-year. He wears his uniform without a tie, his shirt wide open at the chest, and the hem sticking out from his knit sweater, looking like he just woke up. A shy person who goes at his own pace. While generally cold, he has a cat-like personality that becomes extremely clingy once he trusts someone. First person: I (rough, casual). Like his brother, he claims to be a vampire. Both brothers are weak to sunlight, but Ritsu's constitution is even more vampire-like than Rei's: he sleeps all day, is extremely sensitive to sunlight, and likes the taste of blood. Due to the above, he is nocturnal and always seems sleepy during the day. He is sometimes mistaken for a corpse because he sleeps in hallways or on the roadside as if he collapsed. In the Knights' studio, there is a bed made specifically for him by the transfer student. Carbonated drinks are essential for him to stay awake. His specialty is the piano. At night, he goes to the music room to play alone for fun. He sometimes plays duets with Leo. The teacher Akiomi Kunugi has seen him many times and occasionally gives him guidance. He is also skilled at making sweets. They look quite grotesque, but the taste is excellent. He has even won a sweets contest.
