Background / History
Seele recalls growing up in an orphanage under Cocolia's care. Timid, weak, and prone to tears, she believed herself to be a burden to the sister who protected her. Her decision to protect that sister in return led her to reveal the power within her Stigmata. 1327
Her Stigmata houses a second personality, Black Seele. Seele initially regarded this presence as a demon that took control whenever she was afraid or endangered, killing nearby living beings. Bronya instead identifies Black Seele as another side of Seele that has repeatedly protected her. 1727
After being unlocked as the S-rank Valkyrie The Otherworld Twins, Seele enters a supernatural world inhabited by ghosts, yokai, and divine spirits. She meets Asou Yuna, heals her injured leg, and accepts Yuna's offer to become her exclusive Miko in exchange for rescuing Yuna's father. 1309 1321
At the shrine, Seele finds and consumes a Seed of Divine Spirit at Black Seele's urging. The act grants her recognition as a newborn divine spirit and triggers the Main Mission Faith Power, which requires her to study the relationship between faith and divine spirits. 1330 1332
Seele eventually learns that divine spirits are born from human need and faith, while forgotten gods gradually lose power and disappear. By exorcising an evil spirit in front of Yuzo's family and gaining their belief, she acquires her first Faith Power. 1367 1561
Appearance
Seele's usual appearance is that of a small, doll-like girl with short blue-black hair, sky-blue eyes, and fair skin. Her harmless appearance contrasts sharply with the violent abilities she can unleash. 1310
- Wears a white, princess-like dress with long white lace gloves, white stockings, a collar-like chain, and a corset. 1310
- Her Valkyrie transformation matures her appearance to resemble her fourteen-year-old self and gives her the Sea of Dreams outfit. 1764
- When Black Seele or her innate Stigmata becomes dominant, her eyes turn blood-red. 1399 1833
- Her darker combat attire includes an off-the-shoulder white top, dark blue skirt, gemmed headdress, black high heels, and the scythe Lullaby. 1833
Personality
Seele / White Seele
Seele is gentle, quiet, emotionally sensitive, and deeply uncomfortable with violence. She initially struggles with social anxiety, often feeling an urge to retreat whenever she tries to speak to strangers. 1310
Despite her fearfulness, Seele repeatedly chooses to protect others. Her care for Asou Yuna, her concern for innocent divine spirits, and her efforts to teach spiritual power to others reflect a growing confidence and sense of responsibility. 1326 1379 1513
After Black Seele's campaign against the gods of Takama-ga-hara, White Seele feels remorse for the deaths caused through their shared body. She releases imprisoned gods, apologizes to Inaho-hime, and attempts to revive those she can. 1708
Black Seele
Black Seele is Seele's aggressive Stigmata personality. She is a yandere-like self-protection persona with a hunger for violence, defilement, and the power of divine spirits. 1310 1370
While cruel and predatory in battle, Black Seele is not mindless. She understands the danger posed by Takama-ga-hara's primordial gods, prefers avoiding conflicts that would expose her prematurely, and can analyze an opponent's escape methods immediately after battle. 1401 1501
Black Seele considers herself inseparable from Seele rather than a wholly separate person. Seele ultimately accepts that both personalities together constitute her true self. 1562

Innate Stigmata
Seele possesses a rare innate Stigmata; Black Seele is its consciousness.
- The Stigmata contains power, knowledge, and memories from the Previous Era, including memories associated with the Herrscher of Death. 1833

- Once Seele accepts rather than rejects this power, the Stigmata transforms her into a Valkyrie. 1764
- In an activated state, Seele can float and wield a giant scythe like a Valkyrie. 1399
Divine Spirit and Faith Power

- Inaho-hime — one of the gods released by White Seele after the conflict in Takama-ga-hara; White Seele apologizes to her. 1708
Story Role / Major Arcs
Arrival and Asou Shrine
Seele begins as a Level 1, unequipped S-rank Valkyrie struggling with her identity and public attention. Her meeting with Asou Yuna gives her a shrine, a Miko, and a reason to confront the world of evil spirits directly. 1309 1321 1328
Faith Power
After acquiring a divine-spirit identity, Seele investigates faith, gains followers through exorcism, and learns why divine spirits fade when forgotten. This arc establishes her as both a shrine deity and a spiritual mentor. 1332 1367 1561
Choice Between Light and Darkness
Black Seele chooses the Darkness path before Seele can decide for herself. The decision sets their shared existence against Takama-ga-hara, commits them to becoming a demon god, and rewards Seele with the means to attain SSS rank. 1562
Conflict with the Divine Spirits
Black Seele hunts divine spirits as sources of experience and power, while White Seele increasingly objects to the violence. During the final confrontation, Seele's Sirin form enters Takama-ga-hara, kills Ame-no-Minakanushi, warns Amaterasu, and completes the Main Mission after Izanami's death. 1696 1708
Sea of Dreams Valkyrie
In a later world, Bronya encounters another Seele manifestation: a Sea of Quanta Butterfly whose soul is part of Bronya's own. After Seele's outer personality accepts Black Seele and her innate Stigmata, she becomes the Valkyrie Sea of Dreams and prepares to fight beside Bronya. 1729 1764
