The Previous Wife

The previous wife of Bluebeard is a character from the album Märchen. She is one of the seven girls who sings of her grudge under Märchen von Friedhof's conducting, after her life is taken by her husband. Her vocals and dialogue were provided by Minami Kuribayashi.
==Appearance==
While alive, as shown on the limited edition cover of Märchen, she wears a long white gown decorated with green ribbons. Her hair is long and brown with a slight curl. Her eye color cannot be seen, as her eyes are closed in the only official image in which she is not wearing a mask. After her death, her garment is shown as being dyed entirely red and black with her own blood.
==Role==
===The hidden room in the Earl's castle===
She sings as a member of the revenge choir in Yoiyami no Uta along with the other seven actresses. Her song comes in the latter half of the album, and her revenge is the final one to actually be carried out.
===Aoki Hakushaku no Shiro===
She recounts her life from the time that she married the Earl known only as Bluebeard. Although she gives him her sincere affection, she can't help but notice a lack of returning sentiment on his part. It's implied in the lyrics and made nearly explicit in the concert that she is then unfaithful to him. Enraged, her husband takes a whip to her and lashes her to death, hanging her corpse in a room that is soon to be occupied with the bodies of his future wives. Under Märchen's influence, she returns long after her death, after Bluebeard has re-married and murdered several more women. She leads the new wife to the chamber concealing their hanged corpses, revealing the Earl's dark secret. Her revenge is exacted when the last wife's brothers arrive, killing Bluebeard before he can murder the girl for having broken her promise not to enter the room.
