Characters

Main characters

Izetta(イゼッタ,Izetta)

Voiced by:Himika Akaneya(Japanese); Skyler McIntosh(English)

Izetta, age 15, is the titular main character who met Princess Finé when they were children, and the last known descendant of the Weisse Hexe of Eylstadt (see below). Prior to the beginning of the series, she attempted to keep her witch heritage a secret by traveling around different countries with her grandmother, which made her shy and self-conscious. With the outbreak of the war she devotes herself to Finé's and Eylstadt's protection, thus breaking her taboo not to use her powers to intervene with mankind's fate. Izetta's magical powers include animating and enhancing objects into tank-busting weapons. They are, however, hugely dependent on the presence ofley lines,which, depending on her current location, limits the frequency at which she can employ them. She is usually seen riding a modifiedBoys anti-tank riflein place of abroom,although she can use any rod-shaped object, such as medievalcavalry lances,in a pinch. In the first few episodes of the series, she is seen riding a modifiedPTRS-41anti tank rifle.

They are both caught and eliminated by the Royal Guard, but another Germanian spy recovers their findings. Meanwhile, at a masked ball in Lord Redford's castle, Finé and Izetta encounter Berkmann and a strange girl, who suddenly bites Izetta on the lips and drains a small portion of her blood before they slip away.
