Maria von Messina

Maria von Messina (マリア フォン メッシーナ) is a member of Ultimate Magic Research Society and ranks 3rd in the first year S-Class. She is the 2nd daughter of Countess Messina.

Appearance
Maria sports long red, straight hair that reaches her waist, and she has big brown eyes. According to Shin, Maria is pretty cute. Her breasts are not as big as Olivia's, Sicily's, or Yuri's, but they're not as small as Lynn's or Alice's.

Personality
Maria idolizes the Magi and the Guru. She wanted to meet their grandson and possibly date him. She is pushy and a bit manipulative as she used Shin to stop Kurt von Ritzburg from harassing Sicily. However, despite her attitude, she is Sicily's best friend and would do anything for her. She helped bring Shin and Sicily together as a couple. Due to her indifference, Shin doesn't treat Maria as a nobleman's daughter and was surprised to learn that she was of noble birth.

She feels jealous towards her friends who are already in relationships as she is still single. She says that she missed all the opportunities that she had of finding a boyfriend that she liked.

She has a habit of teasing Sicily about her relationship with Shin. She would often comment/react over many things that Sicily does (most concerning her relationship).

This is mostly caused by her jealousy towards Sicily.

Background
Maria, as a noble, has met Prince August in the past. She has also been friends with Sicily since early childhood (5 y/o).

Chronology
Shin encounters Maria and Sicily being harassed by demon hunters. Shin saves them and they all have coffee. They end up enrolling in the academy. On the first day of the academy, Maria overhears august and Shin's conversation, witch, makes her wonder who he really is. She is really amazed when Shin gets first place on the entry exam. Maria is exponentially surprised to find out that Shin is the hero's grandson. She decides to demand shin's help with Sicily's problems.

Trivia

 * A running gag in the anime is her constant irritation at all the relationships of her group.
 * Her birthday is on April 4
 * Her comments/reaction on Sicily's relationship are things to watch out for.
 * She hates the title of Valkyrie, as it implies that she will remain a war "maiden".
 * Maria kept getting confessions from girls rather than boys; likely because she had a more gruff personality like a boy.
