== Episodes ==
* What, Exactly, Is a Human?
* Who Is This Bro?
* Simon, Hands Off
* Yoko, Will You Do Me A Favor? 
* The Lights in the Sky are Stars
== Appearance ==
Looks like an attractive woman with blue-green hair, large breasts, and a curvaceous body. Her long, thick, scorpion tail and snake-like eye are the only physical indications of her true nature. She wears an eye patch over her left eye, with the straps coiling all the way around her body and down her leg, a loose fitting dress and heels.
== Personality ==
Adiane is cruel, very short-tempered and impulsive. She often lets her anger get the better of her, and if she loses, she lashes out at someone who often doesn't even have anything to do with it. She is very loyal to the Spiral King as well as his daughter, however, upon learning that he has disowned her, Adiane reveals her true feelings to Nia.
== Abilities ==
Skilled Gunmen pilot: As one of the Four Generals, Adiane is very dangerous in the cockpit of a Gunman. She managed to get the upper hand against five Gunmen attacking simultaneously, and was able to overpower Gurren-Lagann when fighting underwater.
Skilled Fighter: In Gurren-Hen, Adiane was shown to be a powerful fighter in her own right, easily overpowering Yoko. However, since it took place in the movie, it isn't known if she can fight in the show (although it is likely that, as a General, she is a formidable warrior in and out of a Gunman's cockpit). In battle, she possesses some degree of superhuman strength and speed, using her sharp fingernails and powerful scorpion tail to her advantage. Her tail is shown to be durable and quick enough to deflect a barrage of machine gun fire, leaving her completly unharmed while all her Beastmen subordinates surrounding her were shot full of holes. She also had a high tolerance for pain, as she severed her own tail at one point to escape Yoko's gunfire, after Yoko had nailed Adiane's tail to Dai-Gurren's deck.
Water Creation: Throughout the series, Adiane has shown the ability to create large quantities of water to give her the advantage in combat, as her Gunman is adept at sea combat.
== Story ==
After being informed of Thymilph's death at the hands of Kamina and Simon, a shocked Adiane vows revenge, volunteering to attack the Team Dai-Gurren when given the opportunity by Lordgenome. Viral offers his aid to the General of Water, but she coldly refuses, blaming Viral for her friend's death.
Battling most of Team Dai-Gurren's forces on her own and boldly landing on the Dai-Gurren itself, Adiane is halted by Nia, who claims to be the daughter of the Spiral King. Adiane laughs this off and prepares to execute the girl, but Dai-Gurren jumps to Nia's defense with its impressive bulk. Adiane is only spared from death by Viral, who bravely holds off Dai-Gurren's attack long enough to convince his superior into retreating. Acquiescing, Adiane falls back, only to discover that Lordgenome has abandoned her.
Nonetheless, Adiane refuses to return to Teppelin until she destroys Team Dai-Gurren, having staked her pride on the task and being desperate to avenge Thymilph. An opportunity soon arises, when the Dai-Gurren comes to the sea on its way to Teppelin. With an advantage due to her proficiency at undersea combat, Adiane immediately began setting a trap for the advancing humans.
With Viral using her flagship, Dai-Gunkai, to drag the Dai-Gurren into the depths of the sea, Adiane engages the Gurren-Lagann with her Sayrune mecha to ensure no interference. But the plan fails; Gurren Lagann drills through Sayrune's claws, before using a drill-like waterscrew to drag Dai-Gurren back to the surface. Despite attempting to stop it with her Sayrune, Adiane finds herself out matched; Gurren Lagann's drill allowed it to outswim her and destroy Sayrune's Bloody Clasper.
== Fate ==
Adiane takes Nia hostage, vowing to kill her unless Dai-Gurren destroys Gurren Lagann. Unfortunately, Yoko disables the Sayrune's shoulder with a precise rifle shot, forcing it to drop Nia and leaving Adiane vulnerable to the Dai-Gurren's artillery cannons. Her Sayrune is almost instantly engulfed in a crossfire of blasts, despite Viral's attempt to save her (which only results in the destruction of Dai-Gunkai as well).
Adiane is disintegrated in the explosion of her Gunman, lamenting that she failed to avenge Thymilph's death.
