Suigintou
Suigintou (水銀燈, Suigintō?, Mercury Lampe)
Voiced by: Rie Tanaka (Japanese), Mia Bradly (English), Mamiko Noto (early drama CD)
The first doll of the Rozen Maiden collection. Her desire to win the Alice Game is the strongest of all the dolls, and is primarily driven by her wish to gain the attention of "Father". Sadistic, spiteful, and arrogant (thanks to her major inferiority complex), Suigintou has no inhibitions when it comes to the Alice Game and will use any method possible, regardless of how brutal, to win. She particularly hates Shinku, and can approximate how many hours and minutes since their last battle. However, upon meeting Megu, her medium, Suigintou's attitude and motivations begin to shift; her softer side emerges, and she even hopes to use another doll's Rosa Mystica to heal Megu of her heart ailment.
Suigintou has a number of strange traits and flaws. In the anime, she is missing her torso; Shinku explains at one point that before Suigintou was completed, her design was erased, but gives no further explanation as to why or how. Curiously, after Suigintou is destroyed in battle by Shinku partly she is restored mid-way through Rozen Maiden träumend. She was restored by her current medium, Megu. In the Rozen Maiden träumend finale, she tells Shinku that even with her flawed body, "Father" told her that she was entitled to become Alice. Later in the episode, Rozen is seen lovingly fixing her neck ribbon.
In the manga, her wings (she is the only Rozen Maiden with them) have ravaged her back with cracks. Despite these flaws, her love for "Father" and willpower is so strong that she can use her powers independently of a medium. Initially, Suigintou's will to exist was so strong that she was able to move without actually possessing a Rosa Mystica. She resists a medium because of her strong sense of independence and disdain towards humanity. Suigintou has uniquely been defeated and revived three times.
In Rozen Maiden Ouvertüre, her complete past is revealed. Her intense hatred for Shinku stems from the very clipă of Suigintou's awakening, when she notices Rozen affixing a brooch with his image on Shinku's bow. Nevertheless, they still managed to be friends as Suigintou was ignorant of the Rozen Maidens' true purpose--destruction of one another through the Alice Game--when they meet in 19th century London. Suigintou stumbles through a mirror in the room of Shinku's medium, wailing hysterically for "Father". Shinku takes Suigintou in after determining that she is not a threat. Shinku not only teaches her how to walk, but also treats her as an equal. One day, she follows Shinku into an Alice Game battle with Souseiseki, and is cut in half by Souseiseki's shears. This reveals her incomplete body, and she vanishes into a watery N-Field where "Father" gives her a Rosa Mystica of her own at last, thus, making Suigintou a true Rozen Maiden. Not long after, Shinku admits that she only felt pity for the "poor, unfinished doll" that certainly couldn't become Alice and insinuates that Suigintou could not possibly be a Rozen Maiden because she is flawed and different from all the others. This angers Suigintou, and she releases her negru wings for the first time, beginning an Alice Game battle with Shinku. She eventually pulls Rozen's brooch from Shinku's ribbon and crushes it in front of her eyes. As Suigintou laughs arrogantly at Shinku's anguish, Shinku calls her "junk". The fight between the two becomes even more intense, but Laplace no Ma ends the battle, stating that the Alice Game of that era has ended.
Along with her artificial spirit, Meimei, Suigintou's weapons are her ragged black wings. With their arrow-like feathers, she can conjure up a shield, a large sword, or even twin black dragons. Suigintou can also create destructive blue flames as a last resort. The variety in Suigintou's abilities, particularly when combined with her savagely cunning nature, make her a strong player in the Alice Game.
Medium: None (First Season) / Megu (Second Season)
Artificial Spirit: Meimei (メイメイ, Meimei?)
Kanaria
Kanaria (金糸雀, Kanaria?, Kanarienvogel)
Voiced by: Yumi Shimura
The second Rozen Maiden doll, who is as adorable as she is eccentric. Not only does she constantly refer to herself in third person, but she also talks about taking her sisters' Rosae Mysticae, though she repeatedly fails in her attempts to do so. She fancies herself as quite the stealthy prowler, and makes a hobby of watching the exploits of her sisters, usually through binoculars. Kanaria's bright, somewhat arrogant disposition makes her the ideal subject for many of the comedic episodes. Despite this, she is a competent opponent and attacks with a deceptively adorable violin that destroys through its sound. Her personality mostly complements that of Hina Ichigo, who eventually becomes her good friend and rival.
Kanaria has the unusual habit of ending her sentences with "kashira" ("I wonder?" or "maybe?"), which is likened to Hina Ichigo's penchant for ending sentences with "na no" (meaning "Because"). Kanaria's favorite food is tamagoyaki, or Japanese thick omelet, which, more often than not, is snatched away from her by hungry birds before she can enjoy it. She is introduced in the second season and makes a brief appearance in Rozen Maiden: Ouverture, making yet another humorously over-the-top attempt to infiltrate Jun's home to steal her sisters' Rosae Mysticae.
Her artificial spirit is named after the technique of playing orchestral instruments by plucking the strings, which she uses as a counterattack.
Medium: Mitsu
Artificial Spirit: Pizzicato (ピチカート, Pichikāto?)
Suiseiseki
Suiseiseki (翠星石, Suiseiseki?, Jade Stern)
Voiced by: Natsuko Kuwatani (Japanese), Rebecca Forstadt (English), Nana Mizuki (early drama CD)
The third Rozen Maiden doll, and Souseiseki's older twin, they are both referred to as "gardeners" for their ability to communicate and tend not only to regular plants, but also to the "soul trees" of humans. Their artificial spirits also allow them to access the dream worlds where such trees are located. Suiseiseki must call upon her artificial spirit to summon her watering can which she uses to nourish the "soul trees" and to launch her plant attacks. She makes an impression with her high-pitched voice, heterochromatic eyes (her left eye is green and her right eye is red), and frequent use of the sentence-ending copula "desu", and is described by Shinku as "the most timid and shy of the sisters" in the first season and even as a crybaby in Ouvertüre. She is quite easily scared of strange noises, and prefers to hide behind her sisters in the presence of strangers. With those she is acquainted however, she shows a very devious personality. Suiseiseki adores the spotlight, and her favorite activities include smashing the window of Jun's room (hitting Jun in the process frequently), picking mercilessly on Hina Ichigo, and cackling maniacally. She has a wild imagination, a short temper and a fondness for telling wild lies to terrify Hina Ichigo, whom she calls either "chibi-chibi" (tiny tiny) or "chibi-ichigo" (tiny strawberry). For the most part, Suiseiseki and Jun seem incapable of being civil with each other; she refuses to call Jun by name, opting for "runt" ("chibi-ningen," which translates to "little human") instead.
Despite her attitude towards Jun, she does care a great deal for him, and her attempts to cover that up usually manifest in the form of more insults. In Rozen Maiden träumend, Suiseiseki stands out among the dolls in that she values her sisters' love more than the goal of becoming Alice. She is one of the few dolls who opposes the Alice Game, and has no intentions of becoming Alice if it means taking her fellow sisters' Rosae Mysticae. Suiseiseki and Jun attempt, without much success, to convince the other Rozen Maidens that the Alice Game is a meaningless endeavour. In her brief appearance in the OVA, she makes the same appeal to her twin several times.
Suiseiseki tries to avoid participating in the Alice Game as much as possible, but she can use her watering can to make plants emerge from the ground and manipulate them. Her artificial spirit is named after the popular Anna Sui perfume.
Medium: None (First Season) / Jun (Second season)
Artificial Spirit: Sui Dream (スィドリーム, Sui Dorīmu?) (Also called Sweet Dream (Tokyopop translation), Jade/Amethyst Dream in the Anime.)
[edit] Souseiseki
Souseiseki (蒼星石, Sōseiseki?, Lapislazuri Stern)
Voiced by: Rika Morinaga (Japanese), Julie Ann Taylor (English)
The fourth Rozen Maiden doll, and Suiseiseki's tomboyish twin sister. As with Suiseiseki, she is a gardener that has the power to enter human dreams, and carries a set of pruning shears that she uses to tend humans' soul trees. She wields these in battle combined with acrobatic flight, her spirit Lempika and her hat which can be thrown and returns like a boomerang, a tactic she used to temporarily disarm Shinku in their second fight. She also has heterochromatic eyes like Suiseiseki, but the colors are the mirror image of her sister's. Her personality is also the polar opposite of Suiseiseki, she is rational, calm, quiet and deeply devoted to her master and to her duties, including the Alice Game. She possesses a sharpness in her speech that is similar to Shinku's, attacks ruthlessly in combat, and does not tolerate sub-par actions. Her appearance is not only the most bărbătești of the dolls, but her speech is also noted to be of the masculine form, using the first person pronoun "boku" instead of gender neutral pronouns like "jibun" or "watashi." Souseiseki's presence is much more significant in the anime than in the manga.
In the manga, her master wanted to use Souseiseki's power to enter other people's dreams and exact revenge on his brother's lover, who he felt had stolen his brother from him. Since Souseiseki alone could not achieve this goal, she fights Suiseiseki to gather the two gardeners' tools, the shears of the Gardener and the watering can of the Gardener, which together can affect an individual's soul tree. She eventually realizes that it is her master's heart that needs to be freed and sacrifices herself to do. The dolls present are shocked by Souseiseki's actions and Suigintou uses the confusion to snatch Souseiseki's Rosa Mystica.
In the anime, Souseiseki is devoted to a lonesome old man, who uses her as a substitute for his deceased son, Kazuki. She is shown to be slightly more eager, probably from a sense of duty, to participate in the Alice Game than her sisters. In the OVA, she is introduced in the flashback in mid-fight with Shinku and later does not hold back in attacking a then-harmless Suigintou. Throughout Rozen Maiden träumend, she questions her idyllic lifestyle, and much to Suiseiseki's disappointment, takes part in the Alice Game out of devotion to Rozen, to fulfill his wish of finding Alice and relieve his perceived grief. She battles Suigintou, but is defeated and loses her Rosa Mystica.
Even though the two versions progress differently, Souseiseki is still the first doll to lose her Rosa Mystica, and to Suigintou in both instances. However, at the end of Rozen Maiden träumend, Laplace is seen dancing with two Rosae Mysticae, one of which is believed to be Souseiseki's. To add to the confusion, after Shinku is resurrected by "Father," she tells Jun that Souseiseki's and Hina Ichigo's losing their Rosae Mysticae is her burden to bear. Recently in the manga, she is shown to be missing from her box. Though she is the first doll to lose her Rosa Mystica, Souseiseki is actually the second doll to lose in the Alice Game. Her artificial spirit is named for a fragrance by Lolita Lempicka.
Medium: Motoharu Shibasaki (Anime) / Kazuha Yuibishi (Manga)
Artificial Spirit: Lempicka (レンピカ, Renpika?)
Shinku
Shinku (真紅, Shinku?, Reiner Rubin)
Voiced by: Miyuki Sawashiro (Japanese), Mela Lee (English), Yui Horie (early drama CD)
Shinku is the fifth Rozen Maiden doll and the first to appear in the series. She embodies the traditional Victorian aristocrat. She is extremely demanding and can seem unappreciative of others, even though this is often not the case. Her favorite words are "tea", "servant" and "What?"; she takes pride in lecturing, slapping, and generally abusing Jun, her medium, at every opportunity. No matter how strong the emotion, Shinku rarely lets her sadness, joy, or fear show through. Shinku may seem cold, but she is highly protective of and cares deeply for her sisters and for Jun. She can be relied on for the occasional bit of parent-like wisdom. Despite her aristocratic quirks, Shinku is the most level-headed doll living in Jun's house.
Shinku does not use honorific suffixes such as "-chan," "-san," or "-kun," except when she refers to "Father." Despite her relative youth amongst the Rozen Maidens, the other dolls look up to her as an older sister, and a worthy challenger in the Alice Game. Shinku does have a cute side, which is evident in her intense, almost obsessive, admiration for the puppet detective Kun Kun. Jun was once able to win her over during an argument by using a Kun Kun doll. Shinku hates cats because one almost ate her wind-up key in the past.
Along with being the central doll in the series, Shinku seems to hold a deosebit place in "Father"'s heart; he had given her a special brooch with his image when she was created, which Suigintou destroyed out of jealousy. Shinku desires to become "Alice," but she refuses to use deadly force against her sisters and believes that there must be a way to become Alice without taking part in the Alice Game as told to her by "Father".
In combat, Shinku fights with rose petal-based attacks, making her one of the strongest dolls in battle. The rose petals are extremely versatile; Shinku can direct them to spread out for wide-ranging attacks, or group them together to use as a shield. Her other weapon is a cane, which she skillfully wields like a sword. Shinku has other distinct powers, such as restoring broken objects, typically Jun's bedroom windows after Suiseiseki and Souseiseki show up, with a form of time-reversing magic.
Medium: Jun/Sarah (Ouvertüre OVA)
Artificial Spirit: Hollie (ホーリエ, Hōrie?) (Also called Hollier (Tokyopop translation))
Hinaichigo
Hinaichigo (雛苺, Hinaichigo?, Klein Beere)
Voiced by: Sakura Nogawa (Japanese), Sherry Lynn (English), Tomoko Kaneda (early drama CD)
The sixth doll, and the very embodiment of childishness. Although she can be ridiculously naïve and selfish, she has nothing but the best intentions for those that she cares about. Her disposition is also a mismatch for her power, which is a series of attacks based on strawberry vines, which she mostly uses to restrain opponents. She is beaten by Shinku in the Alice Game, becoming the first doll to lose the ability to become Alice. Shinku does not beat Hina Ichigo outright; the younger doll simply exhausted the energy of her medium, Tomoe. Despite being the victor, Shinku does not take Hina Ichigo's Rosa Mystica. Instead, Shinku lets herself be an inter-medium so that Hina Ichigo can tap into Jun's energy. In the latter half of Rozen Maiden träumend, with the Alice Game apparently having begun in earnest, "Father" cuts off this link, so when Hina Ichigo uses up what little energy she has, she loses her Rosa Mystica to Shinku. She is the second doll to lose her Rosa Mystica.
In the manga, Hina Ichigo is destroyed in quite disturbing fashion by Kirakishou; after telling her to say goodbye to everyone, Kirakishou uses her rose vines to consume Hina Ichigo from the inside out. Hina Ichigo sends her Rosa Mystica to Shinku through Berrybell, her artificial spirit, asking Shinku to use the Rosa Mystica to end the Alice Game.
Hina Ichigo's favorite foods are strawberry daifuku, which she calls "unyuu," and Nori's "Hanamaru Hamburger," which is a hamburger patty topped with a fried egg in the shape of a flower. She adores the puppet detective Kun Kun, though her fandom is not as avid as Shinku's. She also loves to draw, as shown often in both seasons of the anime and the OVA. She usually ends her sentences in "na no" (meaning "that's why" or "because" in Japanese), complimentary to Kanaria's "kashira" (meaning "I wonder" or "maybe?").
In the anime, Hinaichigo's singing, as well as most of her quarreling with Suiseiseki, are actually ad-libbed by her seiyū, Sakura Nogawa (with Natsuko Kuwatani in the quarreling scenes).[citation needed]
Medium: Tomoe / Jun (Indirectly)
Artificial Spirit: Berrybell (ベリーベル, Berīberu?)
Barasuishou
Barasuishou (薔薇水晶, Barasuishō?, Rozenkristall)
Voiced by: Saori Goto
Barasuishou introduces herself as the seventh Rozen Maiden doll, though this is merely a ploy to dupe the other six Rozen Maidens into entering the Alice Game so that she may obtain their Rosae Mysticae. She is clad entirely in lavender and wears an eyepatch over her left eye, though she is revealed to not be missing an eye at all. The eyepatch seems to act as a seal over her emotions, since she only shows a personality when it is removed. In the first and last episodes of Rozen Maiden träumend, she deliberately parrots whatever Shinku says to her in an effort to annoy her. Barasuishou is unnaturally calm most of the time, apparently possessing no conscience, and is an extremely powerful adversary in battle. She is also hinted to be mad; when Shinku has her pinned to the floor towards the end of their battle, Barasuishou simply giggles and smiles disarmingly at Shinku. She has the ability to lucrate and manipulate all sorts of crystalline elements, including glass.
Barasuishou's appearance marks the "true" start of the Alice Game. Her "Father" is Enju, who was initially believed to be Rozen himself, but is merely Rozen's jealous apprentice. Barasuishou's true origin is revealed in the final episode of Rozen Maiden träumend. Enju was obsessed with surpassing Rozen as the greatest dollmaker; to achieve that end, he created Barasuishou to oppose the Rozen Maidens, take their Rosae Mysticae, and finish as the last doll standing. The elements of Barasuishou's attire and overall appearance suggest that Enju had seen Rozen's estetică for Kirakishou and created Barasuishou from his recollection of it. Barasuishou is believed to have died after being unable to contain the power of the six Rosae Mysticae she absorbed; despite Enju's plea for her to release the Rosae Mysticae once he realized the truth, she continued to cry out to "Father" and crumbled to pieces in Enju's hands.
Barasuishou appears only in Rozen Maiden träumend and in one scene of the OVA. She does not exist in the manga.
Medium: None
Artificial Spirit: None
Kirakishou
Kirakishou (雪華綺晶, Kirakishō?) is the true seventh doll of the Rozen Maidens. The color of her ornately ruffled dress differs between the anime and manga. In the anime, her dress is pale pink, whereas in the manga, her dress is pure white. Her hair color is also varied; it is silvery white in the anime, but light pink in the manga. Kirakishou's right eye is missing; in its place is a patch of tissue from which grows a white rose, in contrast to the simple eyepatch worn by Barasuishou over her left eye; in the manga, Kirakishou's right eye socket is simply empty, and the rose grows from it.
Kirakishou's first appearance in the manga is in volume 6, but in the anime, she has yet to be formally introduced. Her only anime appearance, which lasted only a few seconds, was towards the end of the finale of Rozen Maiden träumend.
In the manga, Kirakishou claims that the seventh doll lacked a physical body and could only exist in the N-Field. Because of this, she destroys and consumes Hina Ichigo so that she can materialize outside of the N-Field. Even though Kirakishou could not initially exist in the real world, she could still affect real world events; she gives a rose ring to Odille, the granddaughter of Corinne, Hina Ichigo's former master. Kirakishou's strongest personality trait is her obsessive worship of Suigintou, who she addresses as "Onee-sama," meaning "older sister," and to whom she has freely offered her Rosa Mystica. Suigintou, however, refused to accept the Rosa Mystica, saying that she would take it later on her own terms.
Because Kirakishou's appearance in the anime was more or less a merely a shot of her from the shoulders up, her abilities and capabilities are currently unknown in that medium. One possible ability could be the manipulation of ice crystals, since Barasuishou, having been constructed by Enju as his version of Kirakishou, can manipulate crystalline elements to her whims.
In the manga, Kirakishou can control rose vines. She does this when she destroys Hina Ichigo, and when she restrains Shinku and Suigintou during their first meetings.
Medium: Unknown (anime), Odille (manga)
Artificial Spirit: Unknown
