Last Exile: Ginyoku no Fam


Synopsis

Last Exile: Fam, the Silver Wing is a new original tale in the Last Exile universe. It features new characters, new mechanics and an all new story centered around the young ace vanship pilot, Fam, and her trusted navigator, Giselle, as they pilot their vanship, Vespa, through the free and peaceful skies.


Main Character


Giselle Collette



Giselle Collette (ジゼル・コレット)
Giselle Collette is Fam's best friend and navigator in the vanship's back seat. Compared to the reckless Fam, she is introverted. Giselle collects and stores various battleship- and military-related data and covers for Fam in those aspects. As the eldest daughter of the Sky Pirates chief, Atamora, Giselle can easily handle housework such as cooking and cleaning while taking care of her brothers and sisters.



Fam Fan Fan




Fam Fan Fan (ファム・ファン・ファン)
Fam is a 15-year-old member of the Sky Pirates. Flying in a small vanship, Fam looks for aerial dogfights and battleships with her comrades and resells the ships to make a living. Fam has the potential to become a skilled vanship pilot but still lacks experience. From the bottom of her heart, she loves "peace in the free skies". Her signature aerial maneuver is the Split S.




Milia il Velch Cutrettola Turan

Milia il Velch Cutrettola Turan (ミリア・イル・ヴェルク・クトレットラ・トゥラン)
Milia is the younger princess of Turan. She loves and respects her older sister Princess Liliana completely and constantly strives to be a support system for her.



Alauda

Alauda (アラウダ)
Alauda is a top intelligence agent of the Ades Federation and reports directly to Luscinia. He supports Luscinia's military rule from the shadows through covert operations, assassinations, and other means.



Alister Agrew



Alister Agrew (アリスティア・アグリュー)
Alistia Agrew is Tatiana Wisla's trusted confidant, best friend, and expert navigator. She is assigned to the Sylvana, under the leadership of Alex Rowe. She is about seventeen years old.



Dio Eraclea



Dio Eraclea (ディーオ・エラクレア)
Dio Eraclea is the 16-year-old younger brother of the most powerful Guild member, Maestro Delphine Eraclea. People see him as a rare find that will someday take over the Guild. He is very playful and fearless, and treats many things like they were games. His odd nature can be seen in his awe of Claus Valca's skills and giving him the nickname "Immelmann" (referring to the World War I German ace, Max Immelmann and the maneuver Claus frequently used while flying, the Immelmann turn). This strange nature is mostly due to the Guild lifestyle and fear of his sister Delphine. His first appearance in the series is marked by a chess-match with his beloved friend Lucciola and with the Guild's power and surveillance, watches the skies of a skirmish between Guild ships searching for Alvis Hamilton and the Silvana. He finds extraordinary talent in Claus's vanship piloting, and after the Horizon Cave Eight vanship race, he starts to have strong interactions with the main characters. He later joins them on the Silvana in order to escape his sister, but is forced back to the Guild before long, and is brainwashed by a Guild device in preparation for the "Rite of the Covenant". Driven to insanity, he participates in the Rite of the Covenant, where the next Maestro is chosen, and emerges victorious. He escapes with Claus and Alvis soon after and is nursed back to health in the Mad-Thane residence. He flees from there in a vanship and travels to the Grand Stream. Being delirious, his memory resets to the moment of the race in Horizon Cave, and he attempts to pass Claus. At that moment he tells his navi, Lucciola (who isn't there), to jump out so they can get more speed. He crosses a flock of rainbirds believing them to be the finish line and congratulates Lucciola on their victory and invites him to celebrate, but he then turns around to find he is not there. Believing Lucciola had actually jumped from the vanship, he attempts to cross to his seat while crying, but his vanship is then hit by a gust of wind and he is swallowed by the Grand Stream. Despite this, his voice is heard during a later scene in the Silvana's engine room cheering "Ascending!"



There is a scene depicted in the series' official artwork showing Claus, Lavie, and their friends living on the farm turning and smiling at an individual stepping into the frame with them. Though all that can be seen is one foot and a waving hand, the individual appears to be wearing Dio's Guild uniform.

Tatiana Wisła

Tatiana Wisła (タチアナ・ヴィスラ)
Tatiana Wisla is the only child of "the proud and noble" Wisla house of Anatoray. At the age of seventeen, Tatiana left home to become a member of the newly-formed Anatoray Military Vanship Corps, a new military division dedicated to using vanships as weapons as opposed to just couriers and transports. She excelled in both piloting and dogfighting, quickly becoming one of the best vanship pilots in the sky, possibly second only to Alex Row. She sent all the extra money she made as an ace pilot back to her family so that her mother could care for her ailing father. Before too long, she found herself on the Silvana as Row's handpicked wing commander for his small vanship fighter fleet. She pilots a twin-engine vanship fighter which she painted red to distinguish herself from the other pilots as well as all other vanships in the sky.

Tatiana is second best to no one in her own mind, but her overconfident self-view is challenged when she meets Claus, whose piloting skills rival her own. From then on, her feelings toward Claus go on a roller coaster, making her feel anger, disgust, awe, respect, fear, and even attraction to the young vanship pilot. Her frosty aloofness is clearly a self-defensive façade; she suffers a mental breakdown of sorts after getting shot down over the desert, but recovers, and from that time she begins to show a greater depth of feeling, especially towards Claus, whom she develops a crush on.

But he gets the biggest surprise when he discovers that his grandfather's home is a huge mansion with hundreds of beautiful maids ready to serve him.

Main Character


Mariel



Mariel (マリエル)
At the tender young age of 16, she is informally seen as the 'head' maid of the house. She is essentially the 'perfect' maid - attentive, polite, demure, intelligent, and beautiful. Her devotion is alluded to border on obsessiveness and becomes a major plot point later. (In the original anime series, she had purple hair rather than blue). She is eventually revealed to have been the product of Project: Blue Silent Bell, a genetic engineering project aimed at creating the ideal maid for Tarou. Her true feelings and emotions are buried underneath layers of emotional programming, and at the end of the series Tarou commits himself to bringing them out. (At any rate, her devotion to and affection for Tarou appear to be sincere, despite the programming.) As a point of interest, In one episode, Mariel is shown cosplaying as Chii from Chobits who was also voiced by Rie Tanaka.



Taro  Hanaukyo



Taro Hanaukyo (花右京太郎)
A short, quiet, patient and persuasive middle school boy who inherits his mysterious grandfather's home at the age of 14. A common source of humor is his dealing with the overeager work ethic of the maids. He is put off by fawning women. (In the original anime series, this was exaggerated into a near-allergic reaction to any contact with a woman except one.) He thinks of his maids as friends and family rather than servants, and treats them as such, much to the consternation of some. He is rather blatantly attracted to Mariel.

During the first series, he usually sports the "sly fox eyes" look, but during La Verite he tends to keep his eyes open more often. He's rather aloof, but tends to act very maturely when the situation calls for it.

Gender: Male
Birthday: November 27
Horoscope: Sagittarius
Age: 11
Alice: Fire
Alice Stone Color: Red
Height: 140 cm
Weight: 34.5 kg

Natsume is a extremely intelligent, to the point of being considered a genius, and despite this, ditches class frequently. Hated and feared by a lot of students at the academy because of his dangerous Alice and cold attitude. Due to the isolation he feels from most of his classmates and hatred many student feel about him he is often bullied even though he comes to ignore it, although the class he is a part of holds him in very high regard and often follows his orders.

He is thoroughly unhappy with the school and is always suspicious of the intentions of adults because he believes that they use their power over the younger students to hurt and abuse. He is involved in top-secret missions for the Academy which are shady and haven't quite been explained in the story yet, although he often returns injured.

He is paired up as Mikan's partner in class by the their mostly-absent class teacher, Narumi. Although at first he rebels strongly against this duty, he later accepts it and begins to enjoy Mikan's company, along with the company of his classmates and finds himself getting friendlier as the series progresses, although he never quite loses his dangerous edge and temper.

He possesses the fire Alice. It is revealed early on that since Natsume has such a powerful Alice, it causes a lot of stress on his body to use and shortens his lifespan immensely. He had been showing the symptoms of a life shortening Alice for a year before the start of the series and had been progressing quickly due to the constant use of his abilities for missions for the Academy. Because of this, he can be seen quite a few times through the manga coughing blood or even going unconcious.




The story for Natsume entering the Academy was the rumor that he was a murderer and once set fire to a village. However, it turns out that his younger sister Aoi lost control of her Alice and accidently set the buildings ablaze, losing her Alice, memories and her sight in the process. Aoi is used as a hostage to get Natsume to cooperate when he gets testy, and even after Aoi is released, he constinues to perform his missions to keep Mikan and Ruka safe.


He has a close group of friends, which at first is only Ruka, the only person at the Academy who understands his reasons for being there and originally agreed to come to the Academy because of Natsume. Later, though, he grows deeply fond of Mikan and finds himself trying to protect her from the dark side of the Academy. He gets extremely jealous whenever if Narumi, Tsubasa or any other male character gets too close with her, something that is often used against him by the older boys for teasing. He's often seen kicking the older guys shins, holding Mikan back from hugging others or burning the tips of Mikan's hair to get her attention again.

He is the only Special Star in the Elementary Division, thus entitling him to a lot of luxourios things that he never really gets to take advantage of.



In chapter 50, he kisses Mikan during the Christmas party, to which their relationship develops. In the most recent chapters, he searches relentlessly to find Mikan since she was taken away by the Academy for her Alice and when he finally finds her, he manages to get her to confess as a 'reward' for tracking her down. He does confess in return.

Like Natsume, she is usually poker-faced, but possesses some humor in her. She may treat Mikan unkindly most of the time, but it is apparent that she deeply cares for her. Somehow, she likes to bully people she likes.

Hotaru is Mikan's best friend and the main reason why Mikan came to the academy. She and Mikan have what may seem to be a doubtful and strange relationship. Hotaru comes off as cold, quiet, geeky, and bad-mouthed but calm. Her "stupid" points are her tendency of being a "pig" when it comes to food and her greedy side, this happens in a comical manner. Her Alice is Invention, which allows her to create unique and strange inventions.

She belongs to the Technical Class. She is currently a Triple Star.

Her name "蛍 - Hotaru" means "Firefly".

Even though he tries to hide his feelings for Mikan Sakura, the grown-ups already know about it and even teased Ruka many times by the Watching Over Ruka Group.He always carries around a rabbit and has a way with animals, they seem to attract to him. He is also the main target of Hotaru, who loves clicking funny pictures of him and selling them.

He belongs to the Somatic class. He is a Triple Star student like Hotaru.

Mikan is the protagonist of the story. She is a cute, energetic, good-natured girl, but her clumsiness lands her into trouble. She is a very up-an-at-it and athletic person, much to annoyance of her down-to-earth friend, Hotaru. She used to live with her grandfather in the country.

She was shocked to hear that Hotaru was moving back to the city to go to an academy for young 'geniuses' like her. When she heard rumors that students were like slaves in Alice Academy (which she felt was a possibility, since they gave money to parents for sending their children to the school), Mikan left her grandfather and her home to go after Hotaru by herself. She was then accepted to Alice Academy by Narumi-sensei and could attend Alice Academy with Hotaru and many other children with extraordinary powers.

Her Alice is Nullification, which can resist the effect of Pheromone type Alices and completely negate the powers of other Alices in close proximity to her. She also possesses the Stealing Alice, which she inherited from her mother. Both of her Alices are very rare and special.

She once belonged to the Special Ability Class. Later, she gets transferred to the Dangerous Ability Class, and becomes the Elementary Principal's precious favorite. She is currently a Single Star, but it's most likely changed to Special Star due to the fact she is highly favored by the principal.

Throughout the story, she has a lot of effect on Natsume and Ruka, who have both started to fall in love with her. As the story progresses she becomes liked and admired by a lot of the people that used to feel uneasy about her Alice. Even her relationship with Hotaru grows stronger. Her name means "Mandarin Orange" in Japanese.
