Rue (in Japanese:るう, Rū) is a former antagonist in the anime Princess Tutu. She is an advanced ballet student and is greatly admired by her peers. Like Duck, she also has a princess alter ego, the seductive and unkind Princess Kraehe. In the end of the anime, Rue ends up with the Prince (Prince Mytho/Siegfried) and becomes a beautiful princess.
She was voiced by Nana Mizuki in the Japanese version, and by Jessica Boone in the English version.
Background History[]
Rue was kidnapped from her parents ever since she was a baby, by a group of crows that are affiliated with the Raven. The Raven named her Kraehe (which means crow in German), making her believing herself to be trapped in an ugly human body.
One day, when Rue was attacked by a group of ravens, Mytho saved her, which caused her to immediately fall in love with him. She asked the Raven about him and he told her that Mytho (despite being his arch-enemy) is the only one who is capable of loving and showing compassion to her.
This led her to desperately crave his love even more, and she tries to get his attention by dancing, which makes her feel worse when he was asked to leave.
In the end, Kraehe sealed all her memories away and became a powerless Rue.
In Episode 24, Rue confesses her love to Mytho, which invokes the Raven's rage. However, Mytho finally gets all his heart shards back and manages to beat the Raven, and in the process, rescues Rue and ended up taking her as his beautiful princess. Than they went into Mytho story, The Prince and The Raven where he lived.
Personality[]
Rue is distant from her peers, so she does not seem to have any real friends. At times, despite being beautiful, she can be snobbish and possessive of Mytho, but she has a good heart and a willingness to help those who are her friends. Her alter ego, however, is the darker side of Rue's personality: jealous, manipulative and proud.
