Alice

Alice is one of the main protagonists alongside Snow White. With the goal of overthrowing the Red King after getting his name taken from him, he teams up with Snow White in order to win the succession battle.

By the end of the series, it is implied that he and Snow White have mutual feelings for each other.

## Appearance

Alice has blonde hair and blue eyes with one of his side locks being longer than the other and tied into a small ponytail, most likely to contrast the Red King's appearance. His predominant outfit consists of a blue suit with the frills typical of that of a gentleman's medieval outfit. The collar of the suit is also lined in black and gold.

After the events of chapter 56, the long ponytail on the side of his head was cut off by the Red King, forcing him to have a shorter haircut by the end of the series.

During his childhood, Alice was seen wearing a dress shirt underneath a sleeveless vest, along with shorts, long socks, and leather shoes.

In the final chapter, due to leaving the Mirror World and having it's reversal effect applied to him, Alice now has platinum colored hair and red eyes, a match for Snow White's white hair and red eyes.

## Personality

In the beginning, Alice is a two-faced and cold person who hides his arrogance and distaste for the commonfolk behind a princely and charming persona, often smiling acting humbly despite despising them.

Even though he does his best in order to be the perfect idol for the people around him, Alice is quick to become hotheaded and rude whenever he feels he is threatened, especially around Snow White, who's actions irritate him easily.

His arrogance against Snow White and the citizens of his kingdom seems to have been a defense mechanism from when he was younger, as he mentions that he's from a ruined noble household and was implied to have been neglected because of his status as the second son, who's achievements didn't seem to matter much back then. This attitude takes a turn for the worse when he becomes a 'nameless,' seeing how hypocritical his citizens became the moment he lost his status when he did so much for them as their king.

As the series continues, though, Alice slowly comes to accept that everyone can be hypocritical, including himself, and that helps him forgive them and strive to understand people better; rather than looking down on them from behind his charming mask. He also learns how to become gentler, especially towards Snow White.

## Backstory

Not much is known about Alice's past, as it is never elaborated on in the manga. However, through Alice's words, he was from a noble family that had fallen on hard times- and was then consequently ignored as a result. Most likely because they were trying to to regain their former glory and mostly relied on the first son for achievements, and not the second, who was Alice)

## Relationships

### Snow White

Initially, Alice was suspicious of Snow White, and didn't trust her due to her white hair and red eyes, assuming that she was affiliated with the White Rabbit, who had betrayed him 300 years ago, when she really wasn't. Due to his distrust and harsh actions, this caused their relationship to start off under extremely rocky terms. As the series continues, though, their relationship slowly went from frigid and full of dislike to one of amicable terms.

Alice, at some point, had seemingly fallen for Snow White. However, he is unaware of this, with the Mad Hatter mostly being the person to comment on their (humorous) interactions. His feelings for Snow White and his concern over her has led him to do many things to make her feel comfortable, even though usually he wouldn't go so far for someone else. Snow White, in turn, also becomes more comfortable with Alice as time goes on, confiding in him about her real feelings.

By the end of the series, it is implied that Alice's romantic feelings are reciprocated by Snow White.

### Dormouse

Prior to the series, Alice was the one that found Dormouse and led her to the village- which initiated her transformation from a shy, self-deprecating girl to the confident young lady she is now. This act of kindness by Alice and their future interactions are what led to Dormouse having a crush on Alice, and Alice is fully aware of said crush on him.

Dormouse's crush on him was used by Alice as a convenient stepping stool in the past, but after revealing to Dormouse who he really was like, this seems to not be the case anymore.

Now, Dormouse and Alice are good friends, and Dormouse has (on more than one occasion) risked her safety in order to protect Alice and his position as the king (stealing back his ring from the Cheshire Cat, helping Snow White and Alice run away from the Queen of Hearts' guard, and many more) and Alice seems to be more truthful with Dormouse about his intentions and actions.

### White Rabbit

Due to his betrayal 300 years ago, Alice and White Rabbit don't have a good relationship, with the both of them bickering with one another when given the chance. White Rabbit doesn't like Alice due to his manipulation of Dormouse's crush on him, and Alice uses White Rabbit's crush on Dormouse on more than one occasion, much to the latter's chagrin.

It is also implied that White Rabbit betrayed Alice out of jealousy, as his crush on Dormouse and his care for her is what drives his meddling for most of the series.

### Mad Hatter & March Hare

As a neutral party in the king's succession, the Mad Hatter, March Hare, and Alice had an amicable relationship with both sides being welcoming to one another. However, after the Jack of Hearts' attack on the Mad Hatter's cafe, they have since aligned with Alice because they interpreted the attack as one directed at them.

Personally, though, the Mad Hatter seems to be someone that Alice can willingly confide in; confessing about the strange feelings he feels around Snow White (his crush) and asking the Mad Hatter to control his robotic clone in order for him to work undercover. These actions indicate a certain amount of trust they have between them.

### The Red King

As the only two king candidates in the kingdom of Mirror, the Red King and Alice used to have an amicable/neutral relationship with each other. Both of them mutually came up with the ruling system of Mirror and willingly relinquished the position of king whenever the other won. This changed, however, with Snow White's visit to the kingdom of Mirror after the death of her father, which was the trigger for the Red King's transformation to force Alice out of the king's position and usurp it to keep Mirror from changing (keeping the kingdom under a time loop).

The Red King's actions after destroying Alice's ring and taking away his name is what led to the discord that they currently have, with Alice unwilling to forgive the Red King and the Red King seeing Alice as an obstacle to his plans to make his ideal world.

### The Seven Dwarves

Not much is seen between the Seven Dwarves and Alice's relationship, as it is a relationship of mutual distaste for one another. On the dwarves' side, they are both desperate and non-accepting of Alice being the prince needed in order to wake Snow White up, however, they are aware that he is necessary and therefore begrudgingly help him become king so he can save Snow White.

Alice, on the other hand, didn't like the dwarves most likely because he thought that they were unfamiliar people that suddenly became violent with him and attached to Snow White all of a sudden.

By the end of the series, this distaste for the other party hasn't dwindled in the slightest, though it's less bloodthirsty than before.

### Mirror

Not much is known about Alice and Mirror's relationship, only that Mirror was the one who brought Alice from his original world and into the land of Mirror in order to rule over it as one of it's king candidates. It is implied that, like the dwarves, Mirror doesn't like the prince destined to save Snow White. However, he seemed to look upon Alice more favorably than the Red King, as the other was more likely to keep Snow White captive.
