Mikaela Hyakuya

Mikaela Hyakuya 「百夜ミカエラ, Hyakuya Mikaera」 is the deuteragonist of the Owari no Seraph series. He is turned into a vampire against his will by Third Progenitor Krul Tepes. He, along with Yūichirō Hyakuya and a few others, possesses the "seraph" gene, which is relevant to the forbidden taboo and the focal point of the story Seraph of the End.

Appearance
As an 8-year-old human child in the light novels prior to the Apocalypse, Mika appears wearing short jean shorts. He wears a white hoodie over a collared shirt. Sometimes, he is also shown wearing an over-sized jean jacket. He has short, curly blond hair and blue eyes, which gives him the appearance of a foreigner.

As 12-year-old human livestock, Mika wears the standard livestock uniform. He wears the capri shorts and a hooded shirt. He is barefoot in the manga but wears white slip-on shoes in the anime.

After becoming a vampire, he grows fangs, but his eyes remain blue. His hair hides his ears, so it is unknown if his ears are pointed or not.

When he is 16, his hair reaches down to his shoulders. He wears the standard uniform of the vampire soldiers. He wears a black collared shirt with cuffs and white trim. He keeps it buttoned over his neck and held in place with the vampire insignia. Over the black shirt, he wears the white military jacket with black trim and decorated buttons. It also has the black piece of the vampires on the left shoulder and black cuffs with white buttons that nearly reach up to his elbows. He wears white gloves. He has a thick black belt encircling his waist, and he wears two smaller belts below it forming an X over his posterior and front. He also keeps his sword at his left hip. He wears white pants with black boots reaching up to his upper thighs. The boots have three large buttons at the upper lateral sides and three smaller buttons coming up from his ankles. The soles, toe, and heels of the boots are white. A decoration over the heels consists of a small ribbon coming from either side to make a V with a small white circular detail keeping them in place. In the anime, the boots have less decoration and appear completely black.

Mika often wears the standard vampire white cloak with a hood as well. This gold decoration on it has blue gems hanging from its chains.

In chapter 26, Mika, Lacus, and René wear new uniforms. This design consists of a long white shirt with black details and straps, including an inscription over the left breast. His shoulder and neck pieces have numerous straps tying them together, and a black collar holds them to his neck. A modified version of the gold decoration that kept his collar together over his black shirt in his previous uniform is now inverted and without a line through its middle, and it is at the base of his neck rather than over his collar. A white cape hangs down from the back of his shoulders to his upper thighs. The shirt also has black cuffs reaching from the wrist to the elbow. He continues to wear white gloves. He wears two belts that meet at his right hip, and he continues to have his sword on his left hip. His boots reach up his thighs like before, but they are solid black without any white or button details. This outfit is more form-fitting than the previous one and does not have as many trim or button details. It also has fewer layers.

Personality
As a human, Mika is kind and upbeat in spite of the harsh events in his childhood. He is able to keep smiling and be happy because of his adopted family at the orphanage. He always thinks of his new family and is happy to buy ice cream for them. He is cheerful, feisty, and friendly and even managed to befriend the extremely stubborn Yū. He is a little violent and beats up Yū within seconds of meeting him. As the eldest child, he takes charge and acts responsible for the other children. As he grows up in Sanguinem, he becomes more cunning and willing to do whatever dirty work is necessary in order to help his family, but he refuses to let any of the other children take such hardships. He even approaches Ferid Bathory and lets him drink his blood on multiple occasions in order to help his family escape. Although he feels miserable and even breaks out crying in front of Yū once, he typically maintains a carefree and happy persona in front of the children. He wants to make sure they all still have hope. In chapter 3, Yū describes Mika as "smart" but "always stupidly nice to all of us."

Mika uses his courage, cunning, and wits to lead his family past vampire patrols and to an exit in the city. Even though Mika sacrifices himself to let them escape, he is only able to save Yū. When Yū refuses to leave his side, Mika pushes him away and is happy that Yū finally accepted them as his family. He states that he can die in peace as long as at least Yū survives. When Third Progenitor Krul Tepes offers to turn him into a vampire and give him immortality, he refuses.

She turns him anyway, and he comes to hate both vampires and humans. He hates vampires because of his history with them, and he hates humans for using and experimenting on Yū.

As a self-loathing and moody vampire, Mika is a pale shadow of his former self. When Lacus asks him what he is, Mika answers that he is just an "ugly bloodsucker." He never smiles and always looks apathetic. Mika blames himself for the death of his family, and his sole reason for living is to save Yū. At the end of chapter 3, Ferid finds Mika in a basilica with his head bowed and implies that Mika goes there often. It is unknown if Mika is praying for Yū's safety, praying for control over his thirst, or seeking repentance for his perceived crimes.

Except when he is with Yū or Krul, his expression is typically cold and disinterested. He keeps to himself and only has real conversations with Krul and Ferid. Although Lacus repeatedly attempts to make conversation with him, Mika usually ignores him and refuses to interact with the other vampires as much as possible.

Ferid describes the vampire Mika as "overwhelmingly powerful and arrogant." Mika rushes into battle without any interest in glory and may be considered to be reckless. He prefers to fight alone rather than have the other vampires backing him up. Similarly to when he is human, the vampire Mikaela cares about his family more than anything. As Yū is the only family he has left, Mika lives to save and protect him from both the vampires and the humans. He cuts down his vampire "comrades" who may be a threat to Yū without any hesitation, and Ferid's taunts about Yū send him into a rage. Out of concern for Yū's hatred of vampires, he refuses to drink human blood and become a true vampire, preferring to remain dependent on Krul's blood. Despite the tremendous pain, blood lust, palpitations, and sheer agony of resisting the urge to drink human blood, he keeps control for four years. After he attacks a young girl in chapter 26, he manages to stop himself before drinking her blood but remains horrified by his vampirism. He wants to avoid drinking human blood until he rescues Yū from the humans but does not reveal what he plans to do after rescuing Yū, whether he intends to become a true vampire or die.

Unlike other vampires, Mika does not view the humans as livestock. However, he lusts after a girl's blood in chapter 5, attacks a young girl in chapter 26, and wants Aiko Aihara's blood in chapter 30 after he kills her. Ferid also tempts him with the blood of a young boy in chapter 22. Although Krul is the only person he bites so far, he desires human blood so badly that he can hardly stand it.

Mika is loyal to Krul Tepes and trusts her enough to capture Yū for her purposes.

History
When Mikaela Shindō was a child, his parents abused him. Eventually, they grew tired of him and threw him from a moving vehicle. The Hyakuya orphanage picked him up afterward. He was one of the children that was being experimented on by the religious Hyakuya sect to create a weapon of mass destruction, as part of the "Seraph of the End" plan in destroying the world due to him possessing the Seraph gene.

Prologue
When Yu arrived at the orphanage, Mika wanted them to be friends but Yū was uncooperative. Once Mika claimed he was the leader, the two got into a fight, and Mika easily defeated him. Afterwards, he told Yū that he used to be alone like him, but now he had a big family, and that from that day on, he had one too. Mika told Yu that they weren't lonely because that day was the day their brother Yū joined them.

Shortly after, the director at the orphanage suddenly began to bleed from her nose and mouth, and she fell to the ground. The virus struck down the adult population of Tokyo while Third Progenitor Krul Tepes lead the invasion of their city. For the next four years, the orphans became livestock for the vampires and moved under Kyoto to the vampire capital Sanguinem. Mika approached Ferid Bathory, and offered his blood in exchange for food and money. Mika used the money to buy curry for the other children; however, his real goal was to steal a map of the underground city from Ferid's mansion, and he succeeded. With it, Mika and Yū attempted to escape with the rest of the children from the orphanage. However, Ferid Bathory, actually a seventh progenitor, waited for them at the exit. The sadistic progenitor then slaughtered his family in front of them, claiming to enjoy the look of despair on human faces. When Mika attempted to shoot Ferid, the vampire punctured Mika's chest with his hand and cut off the arm holding the gun. By sacrificing himself, Mika bought time for Yū to escape. When Yū refused to leave Mika's side, Mika pushed him away until Yū finally fled to the exit, finding happiness in the fact that Yū referred to Mika and the others as his family for the first time.

Following the sounds of the incident, vampire guards arrive and plan to finish Mika off before Krul Tepes appeared and claimed that he belonged to her. She interrogated Ferid, and his taunting responses led her to ripping off his arm and giving him a one-sided beat-down. When Mika rejected Krul's offer to turn him into a vampire, she observed that while he did not want to live, she would give him no choice. She then forcibly fed him her blood and ended his human life.

Second Shibuya High Arc
Mikaela becomes a vampire after his escape attempt in 2016. Krul saves his life by turning him into a vampire. He refuses to drink human blood, which will complete his transformation into a true vampire and cease his human biology. It will give him immense power and an ageless body. Although resisting his thirst causes Mika immense pain, he claims he would rather die than become a vampire. Without drinking blood, Mika will turn into a senseless, raving demon. Since Mika refuses so adamantly, Krul slices her own wrist open, offering him more of her blood instead of human blood. As he drinks it, she claims he will never be able to leave her, and he will be her dog for all time.

He reappears at the end of chapter 3 in 2020 as a vampire. Despite being a vampire, he has aged to appear to be 16 years old, and his right arm has been reattached. Seventh Progenitor Ferid Bathory finds him in a chapel within the Vampire Third Capital of Sanguinem, noting that Mika comes here often. Mika points his sword at Ferid's neck when he approaches. Ferid tells him they found Yūichirō Hyakuya, and some very nasty humans are using him, just like they thought.

Mika reappears in chapter 5. Mika arrives in Sannomiya, Kobe and kills a Horseman of the Apocalypse to save a human girl as she flees for her life. The humans cheer, relieved that vampires have come to protect them just like in Osaka. Lacus Welt complements Mika on his power, but René Simm scolds him for stealing the glory and kill for himself; René says his greedy human roots show through as clear as day. Mika replies saying that he does not care about glory, and he tells René that he can have it. The vampires shrug and tell the humans their rules. In the meantime, the human girl presents her neck to Mika, offering him her blood. Mika blushes and swallows. Later, we learn he refuses the offer.

During a meeting of nobles in Sanguinem, Krul smiles and Ferid waves when Mika enters the grand hall. Krul and her speaker announce war against the Japanese Imperial Demon Army for the crimes of killing their compatriots, stealing their territory, and delving into forbidden magic. The humans have even begun to experiment with the "Seraph of the End." Mika says he will come save Yū.

In chapter 7, Mika, Lacus, and René fly to Tokyo to invade Shinjuku.

Shinjuku Arc
In Shinjuku, Ferid commands the attack with Mika at his side. Guren spots them, and Ferid notices. He tells Mika to not worry about it and suggests that Mika drink some blood. Mika tells him to shut up, saying that that is not any of his business. Vampire law dictates that vampires cannot drink blood directly from the source in the city, meaning that battle is their only opportunity to drink it from the source. Mika reflects on his past when Ferid slaughtered Mika's family for entertainment. Ferid asks him if he is still angry about an incident so long ago, despite being a vampire now. Mika denies it, saying that he is only angry at himself for failing to protect his family, but he is clearly angry about the topic. Ferid comments that Mika is always so hard on himself, and he teases him about Yū. Ferid once again tries to convince Mika into drinking human blood; after all, vampires cannot starve to death but rather become demons. In response, Mika drinks a test tube of Krul's blood instead of attacking any humans.

Guren storms onto the battlefield. Ferid orders Mika to work with him to kill Guren, but Mika claims he can handle Guren on his own.

At the Shinjuku 5th Street intersection, Guren and Mika clash. Although Guren complements Mika's strength, Mika disses Guren's abilities. Guren uses a fudo myo-o spell to cause on explosion. Mika dodges easily, but Ferid warns Mika his arrogance will be his downfall. Guren never planned to fight Mika one-on-one and had Shigure set a trap. Using Goshi's help, Guren attacks Mika from behind. Ferid blocks the attack, backhanding Guren and sending him flying. Ferid warns Mika that humans are exceptionally determined greedy cowards and must be fought cautiously. He offers to fight together with Mika once more, and Mika promptly rejects him. Taking his power up to the next level, Mika commands his sword to drink more of his blood. Mika lets Guren talk for a few seconds with his team, and Guren decides to take a second, possibly lethal supplement. Mika does not give him time to take the medication. When Guren asks if Mika has gotten faster than before, Mika claims he stopped holding back. Guren calls him a naive brat. When Mika makes to finish him and stabs Guren through the chest, Yu interrupts. Mika is so surprised by Yū's arrival, that Yu stabs him through the chest without any resistance before recognizing his not-quite-dead best friend and family member.

Mika lets go of his sword in order to escape from Guren. While Yū reveals Mika's identity to his squad, Ferid chat's with Mika. Ferid says that Yū is obviously being used by those humans, and Mika says he will save Yū. When Ferid says a human like Yū could never be one of them and volunteers to turn Yū into a vampire, Mika grabs Ferid's collar and threatens to kill him. Ferid claims he was kidding, and he says he will keep the humans busy while Mika rescues his "beloved princess." Yū calls out Mika, and Thirteenth Progenitor Crowley Eusford arrives. Ferid changes his plan from killing Yu's human allies to turning them into livestock. Ferid touches Yū, and Mika cuts off the arm responsible. Of course, Ferid says he was just joking about tasting Yū. Mika tells Yū to forget about the humans and run away with him. He lifts Yū in a princess carry, playing off Ferid's comment from before.

He tells Yū that Yū's in a bad place and is being used by the humans. Yū struggles and jumps to the ground. When Yū asks Mika if it's his fault Mika became a vampire, Mika tells him it wasn't. Mika asks Yū to come with him, saying that he is Yū's only true friend and the humans are deceiving and using Yū. Yū looks back when Shinoa screams and soon goes berserk when the supplement Shinoa gave him under Guren's orders takes effect.

Yū swings at Mika and then moves to kill Shinoa. Mika jumps in the way, and Yū stabs him through the back. Mika asks Shinoa how she could dare use Yū like that, and the berserk Yū calls Mika a vampire, telling him to not interfere and saying that all humans must be killed.

Human reinforcements arrive, and Ferid orders Mika to retreat. He cannot save Yu right now. Although Mika is unwilling to leave Yu, Ferid grabs him by the neck and waist, carrying him away.

Post-Shinjuku Arc
Later, Mika cries in his sleep during his curse detoxification. This surprises him, and he says he has not cried since becoming a vampire.

Lacus asks Mika about his condition since Mika sustained the worst injuries of the battle, thanks to Yu. Mika ignores him. He tries to ask Mika about the "seraph of the end," which troubles even the Progenitor Council. He asks Mika about that monster, about Mika knowing Yu, about why Krul favors Mika, and about what exactly Mika himself is. Mika ignores him right up until the final question, answering that Mika is obviously just an ugly bloodsucker. Krul summons Mika to the Royal Audience Chamber. Lacus calls him the queen's pet. To Krul, Mika promises to save Yū.

In chapter 19, Mika is in pain as he fights his thirst for human blood.

In chapter 22, Ferid pesters Mika about drinking human blood again. He tells Mika that he ages because he has yet to drink human blood, but Mika is still just barely at the age Ferid finds most beautiful. He suggests halting Mika's growth at its best spot, saying Mika will feel better. He plucks a child named Dai off the street and punctures the surface of his neck with a thumbnail to tempt Mika with Dai's blood. Instead, Mika tells him to let the boy go; drinking directly from a human is against vampire law.

Ferid asks Mika why he avoids drinking human blood so much. Ferid asks him if it's because he hopes to be human one day, but Mika tells him to get lost. Ferid then asks Mika if it's because he's afraid Yū would hate him for drinking human blood, and Mika does not respond.

Mika enters Krul's chambers. She is filling up a vial of blood for him, when he attacks her, biting her neck and shattering the vial. They both appear to enjoy the affair, and Krul embraces him. When Mika comes to his senses, he pushes her away, apologizing for losing control. He asks her for a greater stock of blood.

During a recent Progenitor Council Meeting, the high-ranking progenitors summoned Ferid to report on the battle in Shinjuku. Although any progenitors ranked lower than sixth are normally barred from their meetings, Ferid was the highest-ranking vampire on the battlefield and acted as the commander. He brings Mika with him, saying that Mika is his favorite servant and he cannot bear to be away from him. The progenitors do not realize Mika actually belongs to Krul. Ferid shows a video of Yū transforming. He alerts the progenitors to the fact that humans are weaponizing the "Seraph of the End" once again. Alarmed, a fourth progenitor comments that Krul should have destroyed that plan when she destroyed Japan's Hyakuya sect. Krul claims she eliminated the entire Hyakuya sect along with each of their orphans eight years prior. Lest Karr picks a fight with Krul, saying she has mishandled her management of Japan. Krul slashes at Ferid for his misbehavior, asking him if he were trying to dethrone her. Ferid hides behind Mika, touching Mika's arms and shoulders, bringing up the fact his death would involve the secrets he holds against her being sent to the Progenitor Council. He says they he and Krul are actually partners in crime since they share the same secrets. He pats Mika's butt, much to Mika's disdain, before leaving.

In the present, Krul reminds Mika of his place, his owner, and his dependence on her. She tells him that Mika's death would be the same as his abandoning Yū. Spoiling him, she whispers her plans for Yū in Mika's ear. She gives him orders to get "lost" in the ensuing war, hide from both humans and vampires, and find Yū. Mika agrees to obey.

Nagoya Arc
In the following chapter, Mika, René, and Lacus wear their new uniforms and discuss orders to deploy to Nagoya.

In chapter 26, Lacus accidentally kills a human child in front of Mika and tries to convince Mika to drink. René is unconcerned as long as Mika does his job. Their current assignment is to heard livestock from the surface and present them to the nobles of Nagoya. Mika attempts to parch his thirst with Krul's blood, but it is ineffective. Mad by thirst, he attacks a young human girl stopping just before biting her and saying that he does not need any blood. As the three vampires head toward Nagoya, Mika plans to resist human blood at least until he saves Yū from those humans.

Upon reaching Nagoya, Mika, René, and Lacus encounter Moon Demon Company Sergeant Aiko Aihara. Mika tells her he has questions for her. She orders her team to commit suicide, but Mika reaches into her mouth and removes her suicide pill. She says he can torture her all he wants, but she will tell him nothing. He tells her to shut up before the other vampires realize she is not dead. He asks her about Yu.

When Lacus and René talk to Mika, Mika reports that Aiko killed herself along with the other humans, surprising Aiko. Another vampire reports that all the vampires stationed underground were killed and claim that Nineteenth Progenitor Mel Stefano was murdered. René suggests they head to Nagoya City Hall.

Alarmed, she jumps to her feet and puts a knife to Mika's neck in an attempt to use him as a hostage. Lacus says that neither he nor René care if Mika dies.

Aiko whispers that Yūichirō is headed to Nagoya City Hall and says that Mika needs to stop the other vampires from heading over there. Mika grabs her wrist and crushes it, making her scream in pain, amusing Lacus. Mika monologues at her about her being a filthy, shameless human who betrayed her own comrades to save her own life. Catching onto his plan, she begs for her life, and he kicks her several yards. She promises to talk and says that the JIDA sent a platoon of fifty to attack the Automobile Museum and assassinate Seventeenth Progenitor Zane Lindau.

The vampires decide to act on the information out of fear for repercussions if they do not.

Aiko asks Mika to kill her before they torture her for more information. Mika tells her to do it herself. She claims that would cast everything in doubt. As Mika leaves her behind, she jumps to her feat, manifesting her Cursed Gear bow. She screams that the vampires will kill her anyway, so she will take at least one of them with her.

Mika calls her a fool before slicing through her chest and ending her life. With her last breath, she smiles and thanks him.

He takes five vampires with him to Nagoya City Hall while Lacus and René investigate the false lead. They take a helicopter. When the other vampires notice humans are attacking Lord Crowley and intend to call for reinforcements, Mikaela kills them all before they have the chance to defend themselves. This is the first time Mika is shown killing anyone in this series aside from the horseman in volume 2.

At the end of chapter 34, he waits and watches as the battered Moon Demon Company runs toward him as they flee from Nagoya. He says it is time those humans return Yu to him.

The survivoring soldiers of the Moon Demon Company charge at him. Mika notices four transport helicopters coming toward the area realizes he must move quickly before the Kyoto vampires join the battle. Since he is facing over thirty humans, he commands his sword to drink more of his blood than usual. Mika swings his sword, but Rika Inoue and Taro Kagiyama block his attack. Makoto Narumi attacks him from the side, but Mika blocks it.

Spotting Yu, Mika leaves them and jumps past Shusaku Iwasaki and Yayoi Endo. Confused, Makoto comments that the vampire is making an unwise decision. Norito Goshi says Mika is underestimating them, but Sayuri Hanayori wonders if he has an objective other than attacking them. Shigure Yukimi says they have to kill it regardless. Goshi summons an illusion, but Mika dives through it anyway, surprising him. Mika dodges an attack from Sayuri, but Shigure throws three kunai into his right thigh. Mito Jujo punches him before he can land and sends him into the ground in front of Shinoa Squad. Mika sees Yu on Shiho Kimizuki's back. Yoichi Saotome recognizes Mika and asks his group if that vampire is Yu's family. In the meantime, the humans surround and attack Mika. One stabs him in the back, but Mika ignores him. The humans are puzzled by his behavior.

Shinoa calls out to Mika to identify him, but he tells her to shut up and return Yu to him. Shiho Kimizuki says the should stop him before Mika kills them. Yoichi protests. Mika reaches for Yu. Mitsuba tries to block him, but Mika smacks her axe away. Kimizuki drops Yu while trying to block Mika and says Mika cannot have Yu. Mika throws him aside. Mika begins to lift Yu from the ground, but Yoichi jumps on his back. He says he is not letting Mika go anywhere, and Mika tells him to quit getting in his way. Yoichi says Mika can kill him, but Mika is their family so long as he is Yuichiro's family. Mika knocks him off as well, telling him to not be stupid and to die.

Shinya Hiragi uses the distraction to stab Mika through his back and chest. He tells Yoichi that he did excellent work and this battle is over. He tells Mika to die, alarming Mitsuba and Yoichi.

Shinoa Hiragi activates Shikama Doji and knocks Shinya away from Mika, surprising both of them. With her back to Mika, she explains that Yu would be mad at them if Mika were to die. She orders Mika to take Yu and run.

The other soldiers demand to know what she thinks she is doing and say they must kill that bloodsucker.

Kimizuki, Mitsuba, and Yoichi join Shinoa, stepping between Mika and the other humans as well. Yoichi restates their motto: "Family takes care of family."

Mika comments that family does not exist in this messed-up world. He recalls playing with his own family on the streets of Sanguinem and pulls Yu close to him. Shinoa tells Mika to hurry up and then meet up with them at Nagoya Airport. Mika asks her why he would meet up with them, but she says she decided to trust him and that is that. Her squad charges at the Moon Demon Company while Mika flees with Yu.

While escaping, Mika holds the unconscious Yu in his arms and pleads for him to wake up.

Powers and Abilities
He wields a sword that when he orders it to drink his blood, it sprouts thorny vines that pierce his hand. As the sword drinks his blood, the blade turns red. His strength and speed grow in proportion to the amount of his blood the sword drinks.

Natural Abilities
He was turned by a third progenitor. He seems to be very strong as it was commented that it was rare that a vampire so young could be so powerful. His strength is great enough for other vampires to believe he was turned by a third progenitor, even though they are not aware he has not completed his transformation into a true vampire. At any time, Mika could drink human blood, which will complete his transformation and drastically increase his power. It will also give him eternal youth and stop his aging process.

As a vampire, he has incredible strength and regenerative capabilities. He can reattach limbs at will. Only a weapon containing a powerful demon can halt his regeneration.

The downside of his power is that he is dependent on Krul's blood, which is becoming increasingly ineffective at quenching his thirst. When starved for blood, he will lose control and attack Krul or a nearby human. Krul and Ferid warn him that going without blood for too long will turn him into a demon.

 * "I'll save Yū from both humans and vampires."--Mika to Krul, Chapter 22, "Taboo Krul"
 * "Solitude. Horrible, crushing solitude. Blood. I want blood. That thought... that need... means I'm no longer human."--Mika's thoughts, Chapter 26, "Thirst Logic"
 * "I lied. I want blood. My whole body hurts because I crave it so badly. But I've held back this long.... Damn it! It's not working. Krul's blood isn't enough to stem the craving anymore."--Mika's thoughts, Chapter 26, "Thirst Logic"
 * "I'm not a human anymore. But... even if I'm not... until I save Yū from those humans... At least, until then... I..."--Mika's thoughts, Chapter 26, "Thirst Logic"
 * "You had a poison pill in your mouth. What terrifying loyalty. An inclination vampires don't have. But you won't be dying for yours. I have questions for you."--Mika to Aiko Aihara, Chapter 30, "Sword of Justice"
 * "Shut up. Or the others will hear that you're still alive. Play dead. Speak in a whisper. Do that, and I'll let you escape."--Mika to Aiko Aihara, Chapter 30, "Sword of Justice"
 * "Friends? Yū has friends, but they aren't you humans."--Mika to Aiko Aihara, Chapter 30, "Sword of Justice"
 * "All the other humans chose death. But you didn't. Instead, you played dead to save your own pathetic life. That's already a betrayal of our comrades. In the end, you just don't want to die, right? Filthy, shameless human. If you really want to live that bad, talk. Sell out your companions for real. Where are the rest of the humans who attacked this place?"--Mika cuing Aiko Aihara to give false information to the other vampires, Chapter 30, "Sword of Justice"
 * "Don't think you can order me around, Human. If you want to die, do it yourself."--Mika to Aiko Aihara, Chapter 30, "Sword of Justice"
 * "Were you... trying to protect Yū? No. I don't think you were. You humans are just using him. There's no way any organization that forces its people to kill themselves can be on the side of justice. Haha... What am I talking about? Justice? That has no meaning in this world."--Mika to himself, Chapter 30, "Sword of Justice"
 * "Okay, humans. It's time you gave Yu back to me."--Mika when the Moon Demon Company runs toward him in Nagoya, Chapter 34, "Asura's Power"
 * "Shut up, Human! Yu is mine!  Give him back!!"--Mika to Shinoa, Chapter 35, "Traitorous Allies"
 * "Hah. 'Family,' they say.  That stuff... doesn't exist in this messed-up world..."--Mika in response to Shinoa Squad's motto, Chapter 35, "Traitorous Allies"
