What are you waiting for? GO!
It doesn't matter if I dream or not. The lack of it has never caused me to suffer.
~ Setsuna pondering on the fact she can't sleep.

Towa and Setsuna. Between us half-demon twins, two different worlds exist at the same time... Human and demon, Light and shadow, Feudal Era and present day, peace and war, joy and sorrow, dreams and reality, now and forever, and finally, love and hate... A Feudal fairy tale, Yashahime. We'll keep moving forward, overcoming the hurdles of destiny!
~ Setsuna's monologue.

Tell me. How do you know my name?
~ A cold-hearted Setsuna questions Towa about her name, since they were separated from the forest fire.

Setsuna is one of the titular main protagonists of the series Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon. She is the daughter of Sesshomaru and Rin, and the younger twin sister of Towa Higurashi.

She is voiced by Mikako Komatsu in the Japanese version and Kira Buckland in the English version.

Appearance[]

Despite being an Inu-hanyō, a half-demon, Setsuna looks like a normal human teenager. She's 160 cm tall and has an athletic build. She has purple eyes and her hair, which she wears in a ponytail, is black with a hint of red. She was born in 1505 and is thus 14-years old.

Personality[]

Like her father, she is calm and unflappable. Commonly when in battle alongside Towa, she is quite swift to critique her often relenting or uncertain tendencies, but in a caring manner, to keep her indispensable sister and ally safe from Feudal Japan's many terrors.

In the manga continuity, Setsuna is less grumpier and more taciturn. Since the Dream Butterfly takes away any positive feelings she has in this version, Setsuna elects not to speak unless necessary; not wishing to offend others as she can mostly only say harsh or indifferent things. Why she cannot deeply feel compassion, it's still there.

History[]

She is the half-demon demon slayer who works under Kohaku. She was separated from her older twin sister Towa when they were both four-years-old but was reunited with her after traveling to the future with her cousin, Moroha. She seemed to have difficulty believing Towa is really her sister at first, until her kindful instinct returned later on as her bond with her sister was restored.

Quotes[]

If you truly are my older sister, then you can prove it to me with your strength.
~ Setsuna's harsh words after being reunited with her older sister Towa.

Setsuna: Towa, you should be aware. In the waring age, there's no room for hesitation.
Towa: Yeah, I get that...
Setsuna: If you don't strike down your enemy first, they will kill you.
~ Setsuna preparing Towa for battles in the Feudal Era.

First off, I do not know this Sesshōmaru who you claim to be my father. If all of this is due to his failure, I see no reason for us to atone for it. If it's necessary for Kirinmaru to die, then Sesshōmaru should be the one who deals with it. Tree of Ages, you're asking the wrong people for help.
~ Setsuna coldly declines the Tree of Ages' request.

Setsuna: Tōkotsu, it's nothing personal. 'Meet an arat, then slay the arat. Meet your parents, then slay your parents.' Know that the light to your path lies therein.
Towa: Villain Tōkotsu of the Four Perils, rest in peace!
~ Towa and Setsuna banishing Tōkotsu to the afterlife.

Watch out!
~ Setsuna alerting her sister and cousin to look up ahead.

If he doesn't die then we will. How long are you gonna drag that era with you? Your life is at stake here and now. Sever those ideals along with the Ghost Cat!
~ Setsuna frigidly telling Towa to cut ideals with the possessed monk Juan.

Setsuna: The moment the collar comes off, she runs away. And here I thought she was being happily tamed.
Kaede: Are you heading to Mt. Musubi as well?
Setsuna: No, I am going to fetch the dog that strayed from the pack.
~ Setsuna and Kaede, regarding Towa running off on her own.

Setsuna: Well, that is a posability.
Moroha: Huh?
Setsuna: But... it's never too late to change the path you lead. No matter what might come your way, how you want to live is still up to you.
~ Setsuna to Moroha about her life.

Setsuna: You're too soft! It's not necessarily your fault you lack sufficient training, but earlier today when fighting Tōtetsu, he was able to read your facial expressions and figured out Moroha was behind him.
Towa: Uh, did he really?
Setsuna: Do not underestimate this era!
~ Setsuna calling Towa soft and tells her not to underestimate the Feudal Era.

Setsuna: That's right... I saw those eyes when I was a child.
Zero: I've finally found you, half-demon girls!
Setsuna: Those eyes were watching me, gazing at me through my dreams... It was her! All of it... Everything's her fault!
~ Setsuna declaring that Zero was the one who was responsible for stealing her dreams.

That voice... It's Towa... I can hear her. She's calling for me.
~ Setsuna noticing that she can hear Towa's voice in her mind.

That woman's going to regret what she did to me... I'll return the favor a million times over!
~ Setsuna vowing to seek vengeance on Zero for releasing the seal on her.

Setsuna: (whimpers) Towa... I'm so sorry...
Towa: (gasps, then weeps) Setsuna...
Towa & Setsuna: (yelps)
Towa: Oh, Setsuna!
Setsuna: I'm here, Sis!
Towa: I'm sorry...! How I hate myself for leaving you behind... I swear... I won't let go of you again...
Setsuna: No, it wasn't your fault Sis... It was me... I'm sorry...
~ Towa and Setsuna's tearful reunion.
