Characters[edit]

Main characters[edit]

Yui Komori (小森 ユイKomori Yui)

Voiced by: Rie Suegara (Japanese); Maggie Flecknoe (English)

Yui is the heroine of the Diabolik Lovers series. She is a beautiful, kind, gentle and a clumsy 17 year-old student who used to live with her father, a priest who owns his own church. After her father moves overseas for work, she was forced to live in a mansion with six mysterious brothers who are actually vampires. In the beginning she was skeptical of their supernatural nature, but came to find no other solution. In a struggle for survival, she decides to live with them while bearing the fear of being attacked by each of them. She is the sacrificial bride legend of the Sakamaki vampires. Despite being mistreated by the vampires, Yui always responds to them with kindness and attempts to understand them better. In the first episode of the anime adaption, it is revealed that she is adopted and hence, begins to investigate her past. She also starts suffering chest pains while living with the Sakamakis, due to the fact that her heart was originally Cordelia's, who was the mother of the triplets named Ayato, Kanato and Laito. This explains why all of the brothers were highly drawn to her blood.

Sakamaki household[edit]

The Sakamaki brothers are the sons of Karlheinz, but from three different mothers. The oldest sons, Shū and Reiji were conceived by Karlheinz's second wife, Beatrix. The triplets, named Ayato, Kanato and Laito, were born from Karlheinz's first wife, Cordelia. The youngest, Subaru came from Karlheinz's third wife, Christa. Even though they are brothers, they don't get along with each other and they seem rather distant due to the way they were brought up.

Shū Sakamaki (逆巻 シュウSakamaki Shū)

Voiced by: Kōsuke Toriumi (Japanese); Ty Mahany (English)

Shū is the oldest son of the Sakamaki household and the current master of the mansion. He is the first son of Beatrix. Shū grew up being given too much unwanted attention from his mother. Due to his mother's rivalry with Cordelia to be Karlheinz's best wife, she put all the pressures on the young Shu. He is one of the brothers who seems to have any prior knowledge of Yui's arrival, mentioning 'that person' had contacted him asking to have her stay with them as a guest. According to the students of the school, Shū is the owner of the music room and can always be found sleeping there. Yui needs to use a lot of persuasion in order to get him awake and do something for himself. Shū loves music despite being apathetic and lazy. His only friend was a human boy named Edgar, who died in a fire, set on his village by Reiji. Shū was unable to save him, so he thought that his life was limited from humans. Despite Shū being the eldest, he's never responsible for looking after his brothers and the house. Instead, he mostly pushes these duties onto Reiji.

Reiji Sakamaki (逆巻 レイジSakamaki Reiji)

Voiced by: Katsuyuki Konishi (Japanese); David Wald (English)

Reiji is the second son of the Sakamaki brothers and the second son of Beatrix. He is very formal, and is generally the most composed aside from Shū. Although Shū is his only full blood brother, he despises him for being the supposed favourite of their mother, since he was neglected due to Cordelia's hostilities. He eventually took his anger out by setting fire to Edgar's village when Shū refused to listen to their mother. When it seemed that Edgar's death wasn't enough to impress his mother and made Shu withdrawn, Reiji took out his anger again by hiring a vampire hunter to assassinate Beatrix. He later regretted this when she died at peace; happy to be freed from Cordelia's harassments and to be able to witness her son's mark of adulthood. He values rules and demands that the others follow them, even though many of his decrees are odd and self-made. Reiji chooses to be the role model of the house even though he is the second son. Although Reiji has a very polite attitude and almost always acts like a gentleman, he is a man of very harsh words. Along with his passion for experimenting and making drugged potions, he loves to collect kitchenware.

Ayato Sakamaki (逆巻 アヤトSakamaki Ayato)

Voiced by: Hikaru Midorikawa (Japanese); Chris Patton (English)

Ayato is the third son of the Sakamaki brothers, and lead male protagonist serving as the storyline's hero to Yui's being the heroine in the anime. As a child, Ayato was similarly put pressure upon to be the best, just as Shu was. But unlike Shu, he never received love from his mother. He was beaten and abused by her to the point where she attempted to drown him if he was not the best. Therefore, he grew up always having to be the best, and being self centered, and overconfident. He refers to himself most of the time as 'Ore-sama'. Due to never receiving any type of love from his mother, he is unable to love, and is at first cold towards Yui. Though over time starts to warm up to her and care for her. He is the first of the Sakamakis to appear at the beginning of the first episode of the anime, as well as the first one to drink Yui's blood. Out of all of the Sakamaki brothers, Ayato and Laito have the most similar personalities.

Kanato Sakamaki (逆巻 カナトSakamaki Kanato)

Voiced by: Yūki Kaji (Japanese); Corey Hartzog (English)

Kanato is the fourth son of the Sakamaki brothers, the second oldest of the triplets, and is usually referred to as the 'problem triplet'. He is the second son of Cordelia. As a child, he received little attention from his mother. He has dark circle undertones under his eyes, which may be from a lack of sleep, light purple hair and light purple eyes. Very often, his mother would have sexual encounters with different men right in front of him. Due to being neglected by his mother, he often played alone and talked to his dolls, usually to his precious Teddy which he will take with him everywhere. However, there were occasions when his mother would request him to sing for her, because of his beautiful voice and she nicknamed him her 'little songbird'. Kanato tends to cry often and gets violently angry when he doesn't get his demands. That aside, he is quite attached to Yui. He speaks politely, but is extremely sadistic and tends to display violent outbursts, most noticeably to Yui. He is also shown to be abusive. He is also obsessed with the dead to the point where he prefers them to the living. After he and his brothers killed their mother, he burned her body and placed her cremated remains in his Teddy.

Laito Sakamaki (逆巻 ライトSakamaki Raito)

Voiced by: Daisuke Hirakawa (Japanese); Blake Shepard (English)

Laito is the fifth son of the Sakamaki brothers. He was abused by his mother and began seeing her as a lover rather than a parent. When Karlheinz found out about the unusual relationship between them, he locked him in the basement. Later Cordelia went to see him and told him that she was now having sexual relations with someone else and had only been using Laito for pleasure. The overall shock and the situation ended up with Laito becoming perverted and not having a clear understanding of love. He is always cheerful and loves to joke but is similar to Ayato when teasing Yui. However, his personality suddenly changes when something goes against his wishes, usually when Yui is too defiant around him. However, Laito has a phobia of insects, specifically spiders.

Subaru Sakamaki (逆巻 スバルSakamaki Subaru)

Voiced by: Takashi Kondō (Japanese); Josh Grelle (English)

Subaru is the sixth and youngest of the Sakamaki brothers. He is the only son of Christa. He first shows himself when he notices Yui's human scent and went to investigate its source. He is usually alone and never cares about whats happening around him. However, he easily gets angry and resorts to violence, going as far as to break everything when he gets extremely angered. He manages to compress this side when around Yui, but is still prone to outbursts. He's a delinquent type who loves to damage things, but there is a tsundere side of him that only Yui can see. He happens to care about Yui and is hinted to be in love with her, but denies such a possibility.

Kino (キノKino)

Voiced by: Tomoaki Maeno

Kino is said to be an illegitimate child of Karlheinz. He made his first appearance in the sixth franchise of the series, Diabolik Lovers, Lost Eden. He was abandoned as an infant in a land called 'Rotigenbelk', and was raised by a family of ghouls. However, living among the ghouls was not easy for Kino as he was discriminated, bullied and shunned. Everything changed for him one day when his vampire powers were awakened, which made Kino convinced that he was the illegitimate son of Karlheinz. Using his powers, he made the ghouls obey him and he decided to kidnap Yui in order to become Adam with her as Eve.

Mukami household[edit]

The Mukami brothers were new characters who debuted in the second version of the franchise, Diabolik Lovers More, Blood. Unlike the Sakamaki brothers, they are not blood-related to one another. They were originally humans who were later turned into vampires by Karlheinz, who serves as their benefactor. The Mukami brothers made their first anime appearances in the OVA of Diabolik Lovers and they appeared as new characters in the second season of the anime.

Ruki Mukami (無神 ルキMukami Ruki)

Voiced by: Takahiro Sakurai (Japanese); Adam Gibbs (English)

Ruki is the eldest son of the Mukami family and is known as the 'Brains' of the group. When he was still a human, Ruki was the son of an aristocrat, and as a child; he was spoiled and arrogant until his family went bankrupt. He became an orphan after his father committed suicide while his mother ran away with her secret lover. This caused Ruki to distrust people since his mother never came back for him even when she told him in a letter that she still loves him. Ruki eventually ended up in the orphanage where he was bullied by the other orphans and mistreated by the staff since he was a former aristocrat, until he met his brothers, Kou, Yuma and Azusa. He devised a plan to escape the orphanage which failed when he and his brothers got shot by the orphanage staff, resulting him getting branded as 'livestock' on the back as punishment. Just as he was dying, he met the Sakamaki's father, Karlheinz, who offered him another chance to live, but as vampires. Ruki immediately accepted the offer; seeing this as a chance to get revenge on those who abused him and deprived him of humanity. As the leader of the Mukami's, Ruki is a cruel manipulator with a cool attitude who is able to keep things under his control and a bit of kuudere which Yui notices. He is often seen carrying a book around with him, which is said to be a memento of his father. He is the first from the Mukami's to drink Yui's blood in the second season of the anime. He is also rivals with Ayato and seems to enjoy taunting and provoking him when it comes to Yui.

Kou Mukami (無神 コウMukami Kou)

Voiced by: Ryōhei Kimura (Japanese); Bryson Baugus (English)

Kou is the second son of the Mukami family. When he was still a human, Kou was an orphan who was abandoned in a manhole, thus having no knowledge of his birth parents. His only desire that time was to see the vast blue sky out of his manhole. He eventually ended up in the orphanage where he became a playtoy for the aristocrats due to his beauty. He was abused everyday and he forced himself to accept being a playtoy since he was able to have a lot of 'nice' things from the orphanage. This resulted him losing his right eye and since his wounds weren't given time to heal, he ended up having scars all over his body. As a result, Kou grew up believing that the world is about 'give-and-take'. He met his brothers, Ruki, Yuma and Azusa and attempted to escape the orphanage with them, but got shot by the orphanage staff. He met Karlheinz as he was dying and was offered another chance to live, but as vampires. Kou accepted the offer in order to see the blue sky again and after he was turned into a vampire, he was given a magical prosthetic eye that enables him to see into people's hearts. Due to his childhood trauma, Kou developed a two-faced personality which only surfaces when something doesn't go his way or he isn't given anything back. On top of that, he is an idol in the present human world which gives him the advantage of using his beautiful and pristine features to deceive his fans and others. He is also rivals with Subaru and seems to enjoy provoking him when it comes to Yui.

Yuma Mukami (無神 ユーマMukami Yuuma) / Edgar (エドガーEdogā)

Voiced by: Tatsuhisa Suzuki (Japanese); Andrew Love (English)

Yuma is the third son of the Mukami family and is the tallest out of his brothers. He is actually Edgar, Shū's only human childhood friend whom Shū thought had perished in a fire. Yuma, then Edgar had actually survived the fire due to unknown circumstances but had lost all his memories of his past and who he was, resulting him suffering from amnesia. He later joined a street gang and went under the name 'Bear'. In order to survive on the streets, he had to abandon his timidness and innocent traits; becoming, rough, violent, aggressive, rebellious and dominating over time. The rest of his gang got killed during a coup d'etat and by unfortunate luck, he was the only survivor. He ended up in the orphanage where he met his brothers, Ruki, Kou and Azusa and attempted to escape with them, but got shot by the orphanage staff. He met Karlheinz as he was dying and was offered another chance to live, but as vampires. He accepted the offer, seeing this as another chance to fulfill his gang boss's dream; to get rid of the aristocrats and have a world where there are no social classes. Karlheinz renamed him 'Yuma' after he was turned into a vampire. Whenever Yuma gets angry, he normally goes on rampages. He is a delinquent type with a passion for vegetable gardening and a bit of a tsundere which Yui notices. Shū recognizes Yuma as Edgar, but refuses to believe it at first, thinking it's only his imagination. Reiji however, realizes that Yuma is actually Edgar some time after Shū.

Azusa Mukami (無神 アズサMukami Azusa)

Voiced by: Daisuke Kishio (Japanese); Greg Ayres (English)

Azusa is the fourth and youngest son of the Mukami family. When he was still a human, Azusa was an orphan who had no knowledge of his birth parents. He also doubted his existence and believed that his life had no meaning until he was picked up by three thieving children named; Justin, Melissa and Christina, who would constantly beat him up for any ridiculous reason. However, the more Azusa was beaten up, he began to enjoy it and started seeing pain as his meaning of existence, believing that being able to feel pain would confirm that you're alive. This continued until Justin, Melissa and Christina were killed when they attempted to rob an aristocrat. Azusa started constantly cutting himself after their deaths and named three prominent cuts on his arm to immortalize them. He soon ended up in the orphanage where he became a punching bag for the other orphans until he met his brothers, Ruki, Kou and Yuma. When Ruki devised a plan to escape from the orphanage, Azusa was hesitant until Ruki punched him. He agreed to go along with the escape plan and was shot by the orphanage staff. Karlheinz appeared before him as he was dying and offered him another chance to live, but as vampires. Azusa accepted the offer in order to feel pain again and was considered a pitiful human before being turned into a vampire. He is the only one out of the Mukami's who seems to be 'decent' towards Yui. Alongside his passion for knife collecting and sharpening them, the way he speaks is quite timid and he is a bit of a yandere. He is also rivals with Kanato and seems to enjoy provoking him.

Tsukinami household[edit]

The Tsukinami brothers were new characters who were introduced in the fourth game of the franchise, Diabolik Lovers, Dark Fate. They are the original founders of the vampires who attempt to kidnap Yui for unknown reasons. They made their first anime appearances in the OVA of Diabolik Lovers and they made brief appearances in the second season of the anime.

Carla Tsukinami (月浪 カルラTsukinami Karura)

Voiced by: Toshiyuki Morikawa (Japanese); Josh Morrison (English)

Carla is the First Blood King. He is also the elder brother of the founding vampires, possessing both intelligence and reason. However, he hides a secret sadistic violence underneath that. Within his long lifespan, he has a lazy and calm character. Alongside his younger brother Shin, Carla is one of the last two remaining members of the founders' bloodline. As a founder, he has the ability to transform into a wolf, snake, bat and an eagle. He, however, never uses those forms, because he possesses the highest level of magic which makes him extremely powerful. And if he was not sick from the Endzeit, he probably would have been more powerful than Karlheinz.

Shin Tsukinami (月浪 シンTsukinami Shin)

Voiced by: Showtaro Morikubo (Japanese); Houston Hayes (English)

Shin is the younger brother of Carla. He possesses a high pride due to being a founder, he looks down upon vampires of other bloodlines. Beautiful blood is his preference and often utters narcissistic remarks. Ordinarily his words are polite, but when he loses his temper his speech will become violent and often contain hurtful or insensitive words. Alongside his older brother Carla, Shin is one of the last two remaining members of the founders' bloodline. He has the ability to transform into a wolf, snake, bat and an eagle. However, he prefers using his wolf form. He has high strength, speed, and regenerative abilities. He is able to wield a sword as well.

Other characters[edit]

Tougo Sakamaki (逆巻 透吾Sakamaki Tōgo) / Karlheinz (カールハインツKāruhaintsu)

Voiced by: Masataka Sawada (Japanese); John Swasey (English)

Karlheinz is the father of the Sakamaki brothers, as well as the benefactor to the Mukami brothers. He is also the husband to Cordelia, Beatrix and Christa. In the human world, he shapeshifts into Tougo Sakamaki, a famous politician (anime only). In Diabolik Lovers More, Blood, he shapeshifts into school doctor, Reinhart, in order to keep an eye on his sons and the Mukami's as well as to observe his plan known as 'Adam & Eve'.

Richter (リヒターRihitā)

Voiced by: Jun Konno (Japanese); David Matranga (English)

Richter is the younger brother of Karlheinz thus making him the uncle of the six Sakamaki brothers. Cordelia started having an affair with him and it is said that both he and Karlheinz fought over her once, but Karlheinz ended up winning her heart. In the anime, when Cordelia lay dying (after Laito pushed her off the balcony and before Kanato found her), she requested Richter to take out her heart and have it transplanted into another vessel. Richter had the heart implanted into Yui when she was still an infant and he handed her over to Seiji Komori, who raised Yui as his daughter since then. He later returns to the Sakamaki mansion and he starts watching over Yui from the shadows in order to observe the 'awakening'. It is later revealed that Richter never loved Cordelia from the very beginning and was only using her as a tool in order to become the next head of the Sakamaki family. As the 'awakening' is happening, he tries to resurrect Cordelia in Yui's body, but fails when he is fatally stabbed by Ayato and is finally killed by Laito at the end of the anime.

Cordelia (コーデリアKōderia)

Voiced by: Akane Tomonaga (Japanese); Monica Rial (English)

Cordelia was the daughter of a Demon Lord and is Karlheinz's first wife, as well as the mother of the triplets named Ayato, Kanato and Laito. Prior to the start of the series, she was killed by her sons, but Richter removed her heart and had it transplanted into Yui so she would be able to resurrect in a different body. Cordelia also despises Karlheinz's second wife, Beatrix, since she was the first to conceive children instead of her. She tried to make her sons look better than Beatrix's by pushing her oldest triplet Ayato to always be the best in an unloving way. In the anime, when the 'awakening' occurs, she possesses Yui and attempts to annilihate the Sakamaki brothers with Richter's help which backfires when Richter reveals that he never loved her from the very beginning. In the final episode of the anime's first season, Cordelia is finally destroyed and permanently removed from Yui's body.

Beatrix (ベアトリクスBeatorikusu)

Voiced by: Mana Hirata (Japanese); Luci Christian (English)

Beatrix is Karlheinz's second wife and the mother of Shū and Reiji. Not much is said about her marriage to Karlheinz, but even though she was the second wife, she conceived before Cordelia making Shū and Reiji the oldest sons. Cordelia despised her because of that and constantly tormented her. This caused Beatrix to end up focusing all her attention on her first-born, Shū, in order to groom him into Karlheinz's heir, while unintentionally neglecting her second-born, Reiji. In reality, Beatrix truly loved both her sons and cared for them sincerely, but she found it difficult to express those feelings due to her serious and awkward personality. She was later killed by a vampire hunter whom Reiji hired, but Beatrix died at peace; happy to be freed from Cordelia's harassments and her regrets of how she had raised her sons.

Christa (クリスタKurisuta)

Voiced by: Yuki Tashiro (Japanese); Brittney Karbowski (English)

Christa is Karlheinz's third wife and the mother of Subaru. Before she met Karlheinz, she was known as the 'White Rose' by all vampires because of her beauty and kindness. Karlheinz married her leading to Subaru's birth. Christa became mentally unstable when she discovered Karlheinz saw her merely as another experiment. Subaru began to believe that it was his fault for being conceived and he was constantly pressured by his mother to kill her with a silver knife that can annihilate vampires.

Seiji Komori (小森 セイジKomori Seiji)

Seiji is Yui's priest father who runs his own church. Not much is said about him, but prior to the start of the series, he suddenly had to go overseas for work and left Yui in the care of the Sakamaki's. In the anime, Yui finds out that he is not her real father after discovering his diary. He is later revealed to be a vampire hunter whom Reiji once hired to assassinate his mother, Beatrix.

Characters[edit]

Main characters[edit]

Yui Komori (小森 ユイKomori Yui)

Voiced by: Rie Suegara (Japanese); Maggie Flecknoe (English)

Yui is the heroine of the Diabolik Lovers series. She is a beautiful, kind, gentle and a clumsy 17 year-old student who used to live with her father, a priest who owns his own church. After her father moves overseas for work, she was forced to live in a mansion with six mysterious brothers who are actually vampires. In the beginning she was skeptical of their supernatural nature, but came to find no other solution. In a struggle for survival, she decides to live with them while bearing the fear of being attacked by each of them. She is the sacrificial bride legend of the Sakamaki vampires. Despite being mistreated by the vampires, Yui always responds to them with kindness and attempts to understand them better. In the first episode of the anime adaption, it is revealed that she is adopted and hence, begins to investigate her past. She also starts suffering chest pains while living with the Sakamakis, due to the fact that her heart was originally Cordelia's, who was the mother of the triplets named Ayato, Kanato and Laito. This explains why all of the brothers were highly drawn to her blood.

Sakamaki household[edit]

The Sakamaki brothers are the sons of Karlheinz, but from three different mothers. The oldest sons, Shū and Reiji were conceived by Karlheinz's second wife, Beatrix. The triplets, named Ayato, Kanato and Laito, were born from Karlheinz's first wife, Cordelia. The youngest, Subaru came from Karlheinz's third wife, Christa. Even though they are brothers, they don't get along with each other and they seem rather distant due to the way they were brought up.

Shū Sakamaki (逆巻 シュウSakamaki Shū)

Voiced by: Kōsuke Toriumi (Japanese); Ty Mahany (English)

Shū is the oldest son of the Sakamaki household and the current master of the mansion. He is the first son of Beatrix. Shū grew up being given too much unwanted attention from his mother. Due to his mother's rivalry with Cordelia to be Karlheinz's best wife, she put all the pressures on the young Shu. He is one of the brothers who seems to have any prior knowledge of Yui's arrival, mentioning 'that person' had contacted him asking to have her stay with them as a guest. According to the students of the school, Shū is the owner of the music room and can always be found sleeping there. Yui needs to use a lot of persuasion in order to get him awake and do something for himself. Shū loves music despite being apathetic and lazy. His only friend was a human boy named Edgar, who died in a fire, set on his village by Reiji. Shū was unable to save him, so he thought that his life was limited from humans. Despite Shū being the eldest, he's never responsible for looking after his brothers and the house. Instead, he mostly pushes these duties onto Reiji.

Reiji Sakamaki (逆巻 レイジSakamaki Reiji)

Voiced by: Katsuyuki Konishi (Japanese); David Wald (English)

Reiji is the second son of the Sakamaki brothers and the second son of Beatrix. He is very formal, and is generally the most composed aside from Shū. Although Shū is his only full blood brother, he despises him for being the supposed favourite of their mother, since he was neglected due to Cordelia's hostilities. He eventually took his anger out by setting fire to Edgar's village when Shū refused to listen to their mother. When it seemed that Edgar's death wasn't enough to impress his mother and made Shu withdrawn, Reiji took out his anger again by hiring a vampire hunter to assassinate Beatrix. He later regretted this when she died at peace; happy to be freed from Cordelia's harassments and to be able to witness her son's mark of adulthood. He values rules and demands that the others follow them, even though many of his decrees are odd and self-made. Reiji chooses to be the role model of the house even though he is the second son. Although Reiji has a very polite attitude and almost always acts like a gentleman, he is a man of very harsh words. Along with his passion for experimenting and making drugged potions, he loves to collect kitchenware.

Ayato Sakamaki (逆巻 アヤトSakamaki Ayato)

Voiced by: Hikaru Midorikawa (Japanese); Chris Patton (English)

Ayato is the third son of the Sakamaki brothers, and lead male protagonist serving as the storyline's hero to Yui's being the heroine in the anime. As a child, Ayato was similarly put pressure upon to be the best, just as Shu was. But unlike Shu, he never received love from his mother. He was beaten and abused by her to the point where she attempted to drown him if he was not the best. Therefore, he grew up always having to be the best, and being self centered, and overconfident. He refers to himself most of the time as 'Ore-sama'. Due to never receiving any type of love from his mother, he is unable to love, and is at first cold towards Yui. Though over time starts to warm up to her and care for her. He is the first of the Sakamakis to appear at the beginning of the first episode of the anime, as well as the first one to drink Yui's blood. Out of all of the Sakamaki brothers, Ayato and Laito have the most similar personalities.

Kanato Sakamaki (逆巻 カナトSakamaki Kanato)

Voiced by: Yūki Kaji (Japanese); Corey Hartzog (English)

Kanato is the fourth son of the Sakamaki brothers, the second oldest of the triplets, and is usually referred to as the 'problem triplet'. He is the second son of Cordelia. As a child, he received little attention from his mother. He has dark circle undertones under his eyes, which may be from a lack of sleep, light purple hair and light purple eyes. Very often, his mother would have sexual encounters with different men right in front of him. Due to being neglected by his mother, he often played alone and talked to his dolls, usually to his precious Teddy which he will take with him everywhere. However, there were occasions when his mother would request him to sing for her, because of his beautiful voice and she nicknamed him her 'little songbird'. Kanato tends to cry often and gets violently angry when he doesn't get his demands. That aside, he is quite attached to Yui. He speaks politely, but is extremely sadistic and tends to display violent outbursts, most noticeably to Yui. He is also shown to be abusive. He is also obsessed with the dead to the point where he prefers them to the living. After he and his brothers killed their mother, he burned her body and placed her cremated remains in his Teddy.

Laito Sakamaki (逆巻 ライトSakamaki Raito)

Voiced by: Daisuke Hirakawa (Japanese); Blake Shepard (English)

Laito is the fifth son of the Sakamaki brothers. He was abused by his mother and began seeing her as a lover rather than a parent. When Karlheinz found out about the unusual relationship between them, he locked him in the basement. Later Cordelia went to see him and told him that she was now having sexual relations with someone else and had only been using Laito for pleasure. The overall shock and the situation ended up with Laito becoming perverted and not having a clear understanding of love. He is always cheerful and loves to joke but is similar to Ayato when teasing Yui. However, his personality suddenly changes when something goes against his wishes, usually when Yui is too defiant around him. However, Laito has a phobia of insects, specifically spiders.

Subaru Sakamaki (逆巻 スバルSakamaki Subaru)

Voiced by: Takashi Kondō (Japanese); Josh Grelle (English)

Subaru is the sixth and youngest of the Sakamaki brothers. He is the only son of Christa. He first shows himself when he notices Yui's human scent and went to investigate its source. He is usually alone and never cares about whats happening around him. However, he easily gets angry and resorts to violence, going as far as to break everything when he gets extremely angered. He manages to compress this side when around Yui, but is still prone to outbursts. He's a delinquent type who loves to damage things, but there is a tsundere side of him that only Yui can see. He happens to care about Yui and is hinted to be in love with her, but denies such a possibility.

Kino (キノKino)

Voiced by: Tomoaki Maeno

Kino is said to be an illegitimate child of Karlheinz. He made his first appearance in the sixth franchise of the series, Diabolik Lovers, Lost Eden. He was abandoned as an infant in a land called 'Rotigenbelk', and was raised by a family of ghouls. However, living among the ghouls was not easy for Kino as he was discriminated, bullied and shunned. Everything changed for him one day when his vampire powers were awakened, which made Kino convinced that he was the illegitimate son of Karlheinz. Using his powers, he made the ghouls obey him and he decided to kidnap Yui in order to become Adam with her as Eve.

Mukami household[edit]

The Mukami brothers were new characters who debuted in the second version of the franchise, Diabolik Lovers More, Blood. Unlike the Sakamaki brothers, they are not blood-related to one another. They were originally humans who were later turned into vampires by Karlheinz, who serves as their benefactor. The Mukami brothers made their first anime appearances in the OVA of Diabolik Lovers and they appeared as new characters in the second season of the anime.

Ruki Mukami (無神 ルキMukami Ruki)

Voiced by: Takahiro Sakurai (Japanese); Adam Gibbs (English)

Ruki is the eldest son of the Mukami family and is known as the 'Brains' of the group. When he was still a human, Ruki was the son of an aristocrat, and as a child; he was spoiled and arrogant until his family went bankrupt. He became an orphan after his father committed suicide while his mother ran away with her secret lover. This caused Ruki to distrust people since his mother never came back for him even when she told him in a letter that she still loves him. Ruki eventually ended up in the orphanage where he was bullied by the other orphans and mistreated by the staff since he was a former aristocrat, until he met his brothers, Kou, Yuma and Azusa. He devised a plan to escape the orphanage which failed when he and his brothers got shot by the orphanage staff, resulting him getting branded as 'livestock' on the back as punishment. Just as he was dying, he met the Sakamaki's father, Karlheinz, who offered him another chance to live, but as vampires. Ruki immediately accepted the offer; seeing this as a chance to get revenge on those who abused him and deprived him of humanity. As the leader of the Mukami's, Ruki is a cruel manipulator with a cool attitude who is able to keep things under his control and a bit of kuudere which Yui notices. He is often seen carrying a book around with him, which is said to be a memento of his father. He is the first from the Mukami's to drink Yui's blood in the second season of the anime. He is also rivals with Ayato and seems to enjoy taunting and provoking him when it comes to Yui.

Kou Mukami (無神 コウMukami Kou)

Voiced by: Ryōhei Kimura (Japanese); Bryson Baugus (English)

Kou is the second son of the Mukami family. When he was still a human, Kou was an orphan who was abandoned in a manhole, thus having no knowledge of his birth parents. His only desire that time was to see the vast blue sky out of his manhole. He eventually ended up in the orphanage where he became a playtoy for the aristocrats due to his beauty. He was abused everyday and he forced himself to accept being a playtoy since he was able to have a lot of 'nice' things from the orphanage. This resulted him losing his right eye and since his wounds weren't given time to heal, he ended up having scars all over his body. As a result, Kou grew up believing that the world is about 'give-and-take'. He met his brothers, Ruki, Yuma and Azusa and attempted to escape the orphanage with them, but got shot by the orphanage staff. He met Karlheinz as he was dying and was offered another chance to live, but as vampires. Kou accepted the offer in order to see the blue sky again and after he was turned into a vampire, he was given a magical prosthetic eye that enables him to see into people's hearts. Due to his childhood trauma, Kou developed a two-faced personality which only surfaces when something doesn't go his way or he isn't given anything back. On top of that, he is an idol in the present human world which gives him the advantage of using his beautiful and pristine features to deceive his fans and others. He is also rivals with Subaru and seems to enjoy provoking him when it comes to Yui.

Yuma Mukami (無神 ユーマMukami Yuuma) / Edgar (エドガーEdogā)

Voiced by: Tatsuhisa Suzuki (Japanese); Andrew Love (English)

Yuma is the third son of the Mukami family and is the tallest out of his brothers. He is actually Edgar, Shū's only human childhood friend whom Shū thought had perished in a fire. Yuma, then Edgar had actually survived the fire due to unknown circumstances but had lost all his memories of his past and who he was, resulting him suffering from amnesia. He later joined a street gang and went under the name 'Bear'. In order to survive on the streets, he had to abandon his timidness and innocent traits; becoming, rough, violent, aggressive, rebellious and dominating over time. The rest of his gang got killed during a coup d'etat and by unfortunate luck, he was the only survivor. He ended up in the orphanage where he met his brothers, Ruki, Kou and Azusa and attempted to escape with them, but got shot by the orphanage staff. He met Karlheinz as he was dying and was offered another chance to live, but as vampires. He accepted the offer, seeing this as another chance to fulfill his gang boss's dream; to get rid of the aristocrats and have a world where there are no social classes. Karlheinz renamed him 'Yuma' after he was turned into a vampire. Whenever Yuma gets angry, he normally goes on rampages. He is a delinquent type with a passion for vegetable gardening and a bit of a tsundere which Yui notices. Shū recognizes Yuma as Edgar, but refuses to believe it at first, thinking it's only his imagination. Reiji however, realizes that Yuma is actually Edgar some time after Shū.

Azusa Mukami (無神 アズサMukami Azusa)

Voiced by: Daisuke Kishio (Japanese); Greg Ayres (English)

Azusa is the fourth and youngest son of the Mukami family. When he was still a human, Azusa was an orphan who had no knowledge of his birth parents. He also doubted his existence and believed that his life had no meaning until he was picked up by three thieving children named; Justin, Melissa and Christina, who would constantly beat him up for any ridiculous reason. However, the more Azusa was beaten up, he began to enjoy it and started seeing pain as his meaning of existence, believing that being able to feel pain would confirm that you're alive. This continued until Justin, Melissa and Christina were killed when they attempted to rob an aristocrat. Azusa started constantly cutting himself after their deaths and named three prominent cuts on his arm to immortalize them. He soon ended up in the orphanage where he became a punching bag for the other orphans until he met his brothers, Ruki, Kou and Yuma. When Ruki devised a plan to escape from the orphanage, Azusa was hesitant until Ruki punched him. He agreed to go along with the escape plan and was shot by the orphanage staff. Karlheinz appeared before him as he was dying and offered him another chance to live, but as vampires. Azusa accepted the offer in order to feel pain again and was considered a pitiful human before being turned into a vampire. He is the only one out of the Mukami's who seems to be 'decent' towards Yui. Alongside his passion for knife collecting and sharpening them, the way he speaks is quite timid and he is a bit of a yandere. He is also rivals with Kanato and seems to enjoy provoking him.

Tsukinami household[edit]

The Tsukinami brothers were new characters who were introduced in the fourth game of the franchise, Diabolik Lovers, Dark Fate. They are the original founders of the vampires who attempt to kidnap Yui for unknown reasons. They made their first anime appearances in the OVA of Diabolik Lovers and they made brief appearances in the second season of the anime.

Carla Tsukinami (月浪 カルラTsukinami Karura)

Voiced by: Toshiyuki Morikawa (Japanese); Josh Morrison (English)

Carla is the First Blood King. He is also the elder brother of the founding vampires, possessing both intelligence and reason. However, he hides a secret sadistic violence underneath that. Within his long lifespan, he has a lazy and calm character. Alongside his younger brother Shin, Carla is one of the last two remaining members of the founders' bloodline. As a founder, he has the ability to transform into a wolf, snake, bat and an eagle. He, however, never uses those forms, because he possesses the highest level of magic which makes him extremely powerful. And if he was not sick from the Endzeit, he probably would have been more powerful than Karlheinz.

Shin Tsukinami (月浪 シンTsukinami Shin)

Voiced by: Showtaro Morikubo (Japanese); Houston Hayes (English)

Shin is the younger brother of Carla. He possesses a high pride due to being a founder, he looks down upon vampires of other bloodlines. Beautiful blood is his preference and often utters narcissistic remarks. Ordinarily his words are polite, but when he loses his temper his speech will become violent and often contain hurtful or insensitive words. Alongside his older brother Carla, Shin is one of the last two remaining members of the founders' bloodline. He has the ability to transform into a wolf, snake, bat and an eagle. However, he prefers using his wolf form. He has high strength, speed, and regenerative abilities. He is able to wield a sword as well.

Other characters[edit]

Tougo Sakamaki (逆巻 透吾Sakamaki Tōgo) / Karlheinz (カールハインツKāruhaintsu)

Voiced by: Masataka Sawada (Japanese); John Swasey (English)

Karlheinz is the father of the Sakamaki brothers, as well as the benefactor to the Mukami brothers. He is also the husband to Cordelia, Beatrix and Christa. In the human world, he shapeshifts into Tougo Sakamaki, a famous politician (anime only). In Diabolik Lovers More, Blood, he shapeshifts into school doctor, Reinhart, in order to keep an eye on his sons and the Mukami's as well as to observe his plan known as 'Adam & Eve'.

Richter (リヒターRihitā)

Voiced by: Jun Konno (Japanese); David Matranga (English)

Richter is the younger brother of Karlheinz thus making him the uncle of the six Sakamaki brothers. Cordelia started having an affair with him and it is said that both he and Karlheinz fought over her once, but Karlheinz ended up winning her heart. In the anime, when Cordelia lay dying (after Laito pushed her off the balcony and before Kanato found her), she requested Richter to take out her heart and have it transplanted into another vessel. Richter had the heart implanted into Yui when she was still an infant and he handed her over to Seiji Komori, who raised Yui as his daughter since then. He later returns to the Sakamaki mansion and he starts watching over Yui from the shadows in order to observe the 'awakening'. It is later revealed that Richter never loved Cordelia from the very beginning and was only using her as a tool in order to become the next head of the Sakamaki family. As the 'awakening' is happening, he tries to resurrect Cordelia in Yui's body, but fails when he is fatally stabbed by Ayato and is finally killed by Laito at the end of the anime.

Cordelia (コーデリアKōderia)

Voiced by: Akane Tomonaga (Japanese); Monica Rial (English)

Cordelia was the daughter of a Demon Lord and is Karlheinz's first wife, as well as the mother of the triplets named Ayato, Kanato and Laito. Prior to the start of the series, she was killed by her sons, but Richter removed her heart and had it transplanted into Yui so she would be able to resurrect in a different body. Cordelia also despises Karlheinz's second wife, Beatrix, since she was the first to conceive children instead of her. She tried to make her sons look better than Beatrix's by pushing her oldest triplet Ayato to always be the best in an unloving way. In the anime, when the 'awakening' occurs, she possesses Yui and attempts to annilihate the Sakamaki brothers with Richter's help which backfires when Richter reveals that he never loved her from the very beginning. In the final episode of the anime's first season, Cordelia is finally destroyed and permanently removed from Yui's body.

Beatrix (ベアトリクスBeatorikusu)

Voiced by: Mana Hirata (Japanese); Luci Christian (English)

Beatrix is Karlheinz's second wife and the mother of Shū and Reiji. Not much is said about her marriage to Karlheinz, but even though she was the second wife, she conceived before Cordelia making Shū and Reiji the oldest sons. Cordelia despised her because of that and constantly tormented her. This caused Beatrix to end up focusing all her attention on her first-born, Shū, in order to groom him into Karlheinz's heir, while unintentionally neglecting her second-born, Reiji. In reality, Beatrix truly loved both her sons and cared for them sincerely, but she found it difficult to express those feelings due to her serious and awkward personality. She was later killed by a vampire hunter whom Reiji hired, but Beatrix died at peace; happy to be freed from Cordelia's harassments and her regrets of how she had raised her sons.

Christa (クリスタKurisuta)

Voiced by: Yuki Tashiro (Japanese); Brittney Karbowski (English)

Christa is Karlheinz's third wife and the mother of Subaru. Before she met Karlheinz, she was known as the 'White Rose' by all vampires because of her beauty and kindness. Karlheinz married her leading to Subaru's birth. Christa became mentally unstable when she discovered Karlheinz saw her merely as another experiment. Subaru began to believe that it was his fault for being conceived and he was constantly pressured by his mother to kill her with a silver knife that can annihilate vampires.

Seiji Komori (小森 セイジKomori Seiji)

Seiji is Yui's priest father who runs his own church. Not much is said about him, but prior to the start of the series, he suddenly had to go overseas for work and left Yui in the care of the Sakamaki's. In the anime, Yui finds out that he is not her real father after discovering his diary. He is later revealed to be a vampire hunter whom Reiji once hired to assassinate his mother, Beatrix.
