**Antitise** (アンティティス, *Antitisu*?) was the prince of Antoland during the Great Choujin War.

A mighty Choujin, he became General of the Volunteer Allied Forces that he founded alongside Sora Siruha to oppose Quiem McMann (the Choujin X of Guelta), whom Antitise killed in 1927. Following the Great War, Antitise rose to become the king of Antoland.

## Appearance

In his youth, Antitise was a man of slim yet well-toned physique with a tan complexion and unkempt, light-colored hair that was at chin length, in a middle-part style. He bore dark-colored, lightning bolt-shaped tattoos (presumably done following his Choujin awakening) that were present below and above his eyes, over his forehead, and on his upper arms. Underscoring his royal status, Antitise tended to wear a sumptuous (if simple) outfit that included precious jewelry like anklets, armlets, a necklet plus low-hanging necklace, various finger rings, and earrings that came with silk tassels. Otherwise, Antitise took to wearing baggy pants and, at one point while out of action, was seen stripped to the waist, lounging with a drink in hand; on the battlefield, he would don upper garments that included a fur collar.

## Personality

Antitise was originally in bad repute among Antoland's people, caring nothing for his status as prince and even intending to renounce his right to the throne. Rather than follow his duties, he went about his life going to extremes of debauchery, usually spending his time downtown to indulge in alcohol and women while keeping bad company; this unbecoming behavior was a source of great worry for Antitise's father, King Muchadas, and led Antitise to earn the moniker **Adona Titis** (役立たずの王子 (アンドナ・ティティス) , *Andona Titisu*?, lit. "Useless Prince") from his people.

Yet, after both the king and Antitise's brother, the firstborn prince, had died in the war against the forces of Guelta under Quiem, Antitise took matters into his own hands, gathering men from all over his nation and leading them into battle even though he himself held no combat experience. After awakening as a Choujin with immense powers, he continued to lead his nation in war for several years, seemingly adopting a belligerent persona. He was eventually willing to ally with Sora Siruha (who led the forces of Yamato Mori) and successfully assassinated Quiem with his own hands. However, even after the Great War, now hailed as a hero for having protected his nation and killed Quiem, Antitise remained as debaucherous as ever, though he did eventually take the throne.

## Background

Sometime roughly around the beginning of the 20th century, Antitise was born as the second prince of Antoland, a land to the northeast of Nanatsu, and originally cultivated a bad image among his people. In fact, he intended to give up his right to the throne someday and instead spent his days keeping bad company, going to town for alcohol, women, and other debaucheries that earned him the title "Andona Titis" (*Useless Prince*), and which greatly troubled his father, King Muchadas.

Sometime after the war of Guelta against its neighbors, including Antoland, had broken out in 1920, Antitise's father Muchadas and his older brother, Prince Mandis (the first heir to the throne), died at the frontlines in Zuuland and Maeterland, respectively. Even though Antitise had almost no military experience, he decided to recruit soldiers from among Antoland's populace and set out himself to repel the Gueltan invaders. When he too fell in battle, Antitise awakened as a Choujin with the ability to summon lightning and forced Guelta's leader, the "War Choujin" Quiem McMann, into a more difficult battle. Quiem's forces succumbed to Antitise's counterattack and failed to take Antoland's stronghold, with both sides now stuck in a deadlock. Not long after, Antoland began showing dominance over Guelta's Choujin troops, which grew increasingly exhausted from the extended battle and refused to **Raise**. Realizing how much the morale among his forces had declined, Quiem withdrew from Antoland and instead refocused his war efforts upon Yamato (to acquire the opium there); failing to invade Yamato for three years due to Sora Siruha's efforts as a newly emergent Choujin X, Quiem fled. Subsequently, Antitise became General of the Volunteer Allied Forces (義勇連合軍将軍, *Giyū Rengō-gun Shōgun*?) that he founded alongside Sora after allying with her. It was not long after this, in 1927, that Antitise and Sora found and successfully took Quiem's head, causing the incessant battle against Guelta to finally end.

Much like Sora, Antitise became known as a "Hero" to his homeland, as well being dubbed "Thunder Emperor" for his exploits as a Choujin with lightning powers. He eventually took the throne to become Antoland's king, though his debauchery never subsided. It appears that at some point, Antitise came to have disagreements with Sora, as he would call her "*pitiable*" and advise her to "*read the bible to her dog*", though the meaning of this statement is unclear.
