Diana Filion

**Diana Filion** (ディアナ・フィリオン, *Diana Firion*) is a powerful Necromancer and one of the main female protagonists of the Yuusha ga Shinda! series. She initially appeared as the main antagonist of the Sageland Story Arc before falling in love with Touka Scott and joining his party.

## Appearance

Diana is a very beautiful woman with long white hair, a pale complexion, red eyes, and a curvaceous figure. She typically wears a long coat resembling a black dress with the ends cut in a triangular pattern, a matching hooded shoulder cape, and elbow-length gloves. The front of her outfit opens below the neck, creating a v-shape in the front that shows off her cleavage and closes above her midriff. She wears long pants that cover her legs and g-string panties underneath. During her battle with the Legendary Hero Touka Scott, he destroys Diana’s original clothing and dresses the naked woman in a pair of knee-socks.

After falling in love with Touka, Diana begins wearing a new outfit consisting of a black dominatrix-like leotard with arm-length gloves and thigh-high boots. She seems to have chosen this ensemble to cater to her new crush’s perverted nature, as it reveals most of her breasts, her stomach, and her plump thighs.

Due to Necromancers’ bodies having evolved to survive off the mana-rich atmosphere in Hell, they often appear sickly while in the human world. As a result, Diana sweats profusely and complains in warm temperatures, seemingly having a lack of resistance to the heat. This ceases once Nicola Lullus devises a solution to the condition.

In the sequel, she is seen wearing normal clothes while living with Touka and the other girls. Diana’s casual attire consists of a white tunic covered by a black dress. Upon heading off on another adventure, she wears a black dress closely resembling her original attire.

While using petrification magic, she manifests a single red eye in the center of each breast which turns people who see them into stone. Diana also has the power of the one of the Devil King’s Elite Four, and can cause large fleshy tentacles to protrude from virtually anywhere around her, including her own body.

## Personality

A sultry and sadistic woman, Diana seems to take joy in toying with her prey before killing them. She shows little concern for the safety of her comrades and will leave them to die should the situation warrant it, having personally led a pack of angry devils to Diego Valentine after he lost a battle so that she could mock his weakness before watching them devour him. Due to being the most powerful of Hell’s Necromancers, she is a confident warrior who craves battle, even if it is not necessary for a mission. Diana sees little value in the lives of the weak and takes pleasure in tormenting her helpless victims. This is shown most prominently during the battles on Sageland where she refused to depart with her comrades after collecting the magical creatures for their army, instead seeking out the Hero’s Party with the intention of killing them immediately. Furthermore, she easily turned Princess Marguerite to stone but did not kill her, even partially unfreezing the latter’s broken body to mess around when fully reversing the spell would’ve meant instant death.

Diana experiences terror for the first time during her fight with Touka Scott when he outspeeds her using spiritual connection, tearing off her clothing and redressing her in knee-socks in the blink of an eye. She dismisses the first instance as a fluke, but after witnessing his movements again, realizes that he could potentially have killed her. She feels fear and is ultimately turned to stone when he steals one of her Magic Crystals and uses the same power against her. Upon escaping her petrification some time later, Diana falls madly in love with Touka as he was the first man to humiliate her in such a way, forcing her to submit. This implies her terror may have caused her to develop submissive or masochistic tendencies.

These strong feelings cause her to become a more caring person, and after she joins the Hero’s Party, she focuses on the safety of Touka and his comrades. Her more evil traits have since mellowed out, evolving into a tendency to tease others over their misfortunes and inadequacies, though she still displays subdued traces of sadism when dealing with enemies. Diana’s former madness will occasionally rear itself when she sees other women flirting with Touka or when somebody insults him, but a quick warning from one of her companions is usually all it takes to stop her from resorting to violence.

One quality she retains throughout the series is a tendency to jokingly flirt with others while using her sexual appeal to elicit reactions from people. Diana has a hands-on method of expressing her affections, and will often embrace the people she likes without hesitation. She tends to refer to this action as making somebody “hers”, and seems to do this to men and women without discrimination.

In the sequel series, she lives in Touka’s house along with Yuna, Anri, and Ethel, and has apparently developed a domestic side. She became a capable cook in the hopes of being a good wife to Touka and currently prepares the household’s meals.

## History

Like many Necromancers, Diana was born in the depths of Hell and likely spent the majority of her life fighting off devils just to survive. Unlike many of her brethren who fled and aimlessly wandered like nomads, Diana took a castle as her home and welcomed battles with the demonic hordes, using her immense power to slaughter her enemies and amass Magic Crystals for her own use. A skilled and powerful sorcerer, she learned to proficiently use any type of magic. Diana would often appear on the battlefield garbed in a red dress covered in Magic Crystals, causing people to refer to her as the "Crimson Queen". When the Gates of Hell opened three years prior to the main story, she was among the Necromancers who escaped to the human world.

At some point, she made contact with Friedrich Norstein’s group and joined her fellow Necromancers in their plot to take over the world.

## Synopsis

### Crisis in Farom

Diana first appears after Diego Valentine fails to defeat the new hero and his allies. She greets him mockingly before admonishing Diego for losing a large portion of their forces and the zombified body of one of the Demon Elite Four. Realizing he is about to be killed, Diego asks who gave the orders, with Diana cryptically revealing it was their benefactors. While she admits Friedrich would never approve of his fellow Necromancers killing each other, she allows a pair of low-ranked devils to devour him alive.

## Relationships

### Touka Scott

The two initially met as enemies when Diana attempted to turn the magical beasts on Sageland into an army for Hell’s Necromancers. She was surprised to discover his immunity to her trademark petrification technique, as she manifested its power on her breasts, and Touka was too focused on her thighs to care. Diana initially finds him unimpressive, mocking his pitiful mana level, while endangering Marguerite for the purpose of amusement. The new hero manages to achieve spiritual connection by focusing on his love for beautiful thighs and achieves superhuman speed, ripping off her pants and redressing her in knee-socks before she can react. Diana expresses shock when she realizes how easily he could have attacked her and begins thinking of him as scum in the guise of a hero before being petrified with her own power.

Upon recovering from her petrification, Diana is revealed to have fallen madly in love with Touka, as he was the first man to force her to submit, implying she may have developed submissive or masochistic tendencies as a result of her humiliation. She now seeks to be as helpful to him as possible, and will do literally anything he asks regardless. Diana becomes the last person to join Touka’s hero’s party. Her power proves useful immediately, as Anri had temporarily left the group a short time before, leaving them in need of a Necromancer to return Touka’s soul to Sion’s body. Diana subsequently aids her new companions in the battles against Farom’s Necromancers.

Of Touka’s female admirers, she is the most open about her feelings, literally showering him with affection and trying to seduce him on a regular basis. In the sequel series, she refers to him as her husband, and apparently practiced cooking to be a good wife to him.

### Marguerite Farom

During their battle on Sageland, Diana proved a powerful enemy to the party, easily defeating both Marguerite and Kyle with her petrification. The lascivious Necromancer then puts them on display and claims she could stare at them forever before expressing a desire to break them, casually snapping off one of Marguerite’s fingers. She later toys with the girl’s body to upset Touka. Diana partially unfroze Marguerite’s head while her body was broken, allowing the princess to see the terror of the battle while taunting the heroes over the fact that fully releasing a target from petrification with their body in such a state would mean instant death. This physical and mental torture left the princess in a deeply emotional state even after Diana’s defeat. Feeling powerless after this brutal turn of events, Marguerite began eating to drown out her depression, resulting in her becoming extremely fat again.

The princess does manage to recover a short time later, and ultimately forgives Diana when the latter falls in love with Touka and joins the Hero’s Party. While Yuna was less willing to trust a former enemy, Marguerite noticed Diana’s expression while talking about Touka and knew the Necromancer’s feelings for him were no different than her own. The princess becomes the first member of the Hero’s Party to forgive Diana and accept her into the fold. When someone flirts with Touka or insults him, Marguerite is usually the one to stop Diana from using violence on the perpetrator.

### Yuna Yunis

Like the rest of Touka’s party, Yuna was initially an enemy during their encounter on Sageland, although they did not directly confront each other at the time. When Diana falls in love with Touka and joins the party, Yuna is the only one to object to allying with a previous enemy. The animosity between them appears to be neutral, as the night Yuna confessed her feelings to Touka, Diana expressed a desire to violently intervene and only stopped after she received a warning from Marguerite. When Touka mistakes the confession for platonic love, Milly explains that he is probably traumatized by Yuna’s past mistreatment, eliciting a satisfied reaction from Diana.

In the sequel series taking place four years later, the two live in Touka’s house together and appear to get along better. Diana has developed a tendency to tease Yuna for the latter’s lack of progress in her relationship with Touka, while Yuna dislikes her habit of constantly trying to seduce him.

### Anri Hazeworth

As a fellow Necromancer from Hell, Anri was aware of Diana’s formidable reputation among their kind, including the woman’s mastery of magic and incredibly high mana level. During their adventures in Sageland, Anri expresses deep concern upon learning that Touka is up against her, believing that he couldn’t win without backup. When Diana falls in love with Touka and decides to help him at Hell’s Gate, she is shown to be indifferent towards Anri, expressing no reservations about attacking the hero’s enemies even with the latter being held hostage at the time.

During the sequel series, the two appear to be on better terms, as they are currently living together in Touka’s house.

### Friedrich Norstein

While she joined his group to create a world where Necromancers can thrive, Diana seems to have done so for the purpose of entertainment. She blatantly acknowledges he would never approve of their kind killing each other before allowing devils to murder Diego, showing a lack of true loyalty or care for her brethren. Diana also stays behind on Sageland to finish off the Hero’s Party after completing her mission, prioritizing her love of battle. After losing to Touka and falling in love with the latter, she ditches Friedrich’s organization altogether to join the Hero’s Party, once again disregarding his leadership.

### Diego Valentine

Diana openly sees Diego as a worthless ally, having led two hungry devils to the immobilized Necromancer after his defeat knowing they would eat him alive. She was indirectly responsible for his death, and seemed to take pleasure in watching his suffering, later dismissing Diego as no great loss when the topic comes up in front of her brethren. He ultimately survives when one of the devils who attacked him swallowed his heart whole, allowing him to take possession of its body, and later giving him the opportunity to steal Friedrich’s corpse once the latter is killed in battle.

In the sequel, the two find themselves on the same side while facing the threat of a recently powered-up Leland Tallman. Diego recommends that the allies they’ve gathered train by brutally fighting each other and using Nicola’s new healing machine to fix their injuries. Diana declines to be his opponent, claiming she would probably go too far and intentionally kill him if given the chance, showing her continued contempt even years later.

## Trivia

* Diana’s introduction scene is shortened in the anime, removing all of her dialogue before Diego is attacked by devils. Instead, she is simply shown smirking sadistically.
