Finally! She lost it! The Twilight Healing! Now I can finally grasp it!
~ Raynare after taking Asia's Twilight Healing.
Would you die for me?
~ Raynare to Issei commonly to taunt him.

Raynare is the main antagonist of Volume 1 in the ecchi light novel series High School DxD and the first season in its anime adaptation.

She is a Fallen Angel, as well as the ex-girlfriend and archenemy of Issei Hyoudou after she killed him and later Asia Argento (only for them to be resurrected as devils by Rias Gremory, who later kills Raynare herself).

In Japanese version, she was voiced by Hitomi Nabatame. In Korean version, she was voiced by Mun Ja Choi and in the English version, she was voiced by Felecia Angelle.

Appearance[]

Raynare was an attractive young woman around the same age as Issei with long black hair that fell to her hips and purple eyes. Her outfit consisted of a short black dress with a small, light purple jacket on top, which was worn throughout most of her appearances in both the light novel and manga. In the anime, her initial outfit (as Yuuma) was her school uniform, which consisted of a dark red jacket with the letter "P" embroidered in gold, a white undershirt, a red bow, and a green skirt with a thin white strip around the lower end of it.

Upon the climax of her date with Issei, she shredded her clothing and changed into her alternate (and more common) form. In the process of transforming, she grew taller, taking on a more mature appearance, and her eyes changed, taking on a darker, more evil look. Her clothing also changed dramatically, now consisting of black, strap-like objects (resembling leather) around and under her breasts.

A thong-like piece held around her hips by three thin straps, gloves that run right up her arms with small lengths of chains hanging from them, shoulder guard-like objects on her shoulders with three large spikes sprouting from her right shoulder, and black thigh-high heel boots. Her voice also tumbled to a lower pitch when in this form. This form is best described as a very erotic and revealing version of her disguise.

Personality[]

Raynare may seem like a sweet and rather attractive young schoolgirl, but her true personality revealed that she was cruel and very deceptive (noted when she manipulated Issei's mind in order to get close to him and kill him. She also laughed cruelly at Issei, believing him to be "A waste of her time dealing with him"). This goes to show that Fallen Angels know how to manipulate humans and then make them suffer greatly by mocking and being cruel to them. Raynare is also power-crazed who obsessed with the Twilight Healing and wanted to have it for her own when she killed Asia. Finally following her defeat and her friends' death, she has also demonstrated herself to be a dirty coward, as she begged the man she betrayed to save her life, only to fall on dead ears and earning her comeuppance for her crimes.

Biography[]

Raynare was sent by Azazel to keep a close eye on Issei, she disguised herself as a human named Yuuma Amano, and becomes Issei's girlfriend. However at the climax of their first date, she disobeyed Azazel's orders and killed him on her own accord. Raynare later appeared after Issei's spending the day with Asia, surprised and disgusted at the fact that he was reincarnated into a Devil, and easily overwhelmed him while revealing the Sacred Gear he used was a Twice Critical before whisking Asia away.

Later, at the abandoned Church, she took Asia's Twilight Healing, killing her in the process, before proceeding to fight Issei in a one-on-one duel with Asia's life on the line. Although she overpowers Issei once more, in the climax of the duel, Issei's true Sacred Gear, Boosted Gear, activates, and she is swiftly defeated by the new power. Before being terminated by Rias, she desperately begged Issei to save her, even going as far as to say that she loves him. Ultimately, Issei sees through her lies and replies by telling Rias to kill her, much to the shocked Raynare, as she can only watch as she is killed and turned into ashes by Rias' Power of Destruction, putting an end to her devious crimes and undoing her actions by bringing Asia back to life.

Legacy[]

Even in her death, Issei went outraged of Shalba sent Asia to the Dimensional Gap when using one of Vali's Juggernaut Drive, a hallucinated Raynare continually mocked Issei over Asia's disappearance and asked him to die for her. Her actions also deeply traumatized Issei, developed a fear of admitting his feelings to the girls, especially to Rias, as he thought it would cause them to turn their backs on him, until Akeno, Koneko and Asia cure his broken heart by professing their love for him and telling him they will never betray him like Raynare did, and that he should start believing in himself. With that, he regains his self confidence, loses his fear of women and Raynare is erased from his heart forever, ending her legacy once and for all.

Powers and Abilities[]

  • Light Spear: Raynare can create and throw light spear to kill Devils. However, unlike most Fallen Angels who wield only one light spear, Raynare is also skilled to create several light spears in her arsenal.
  • Memory Alteration: Raynare can also able to wipe the memories and all records of her existence as Yuuma from all of the students in Kuoh Academy.
  • Flight: Being a Fallen Angel, Raynare can fly using her wings.

Quotes[]

Well, I have to admit, I did have some fun today considering how naive and childish you are, things could have been much much worse. Thanks a lot for the gift too. Very sweet, but even so.
~ Raynare after revealing herself to Issei and drawing her Spear of Light.
It's time to die!
~ Raynare stabbing Issei with her Spear of Light.
I'm sorry but the fact is you were far too great a risk to us. I had no choice but to dispose of you. If you're looking for someone to blame, why not blame him? He gave you the sacred gear.

Oh, thanks again for the lovely date. It was fun.

Save me, Issei-kun!
