Background

This dropdown contains the synopsis of Louise Françoise Le Blanc de La Vallière's story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!

Louise’s struggles with magic stem from her natural affinity for Void magic, an ancient and extremely rare element that only four individuals can wield at a time. The last known wielder before her was Brimir, the legendary founder. Since the Academy lacks instructors proficient in Void magic, unlike the other elemental disciplines, Louise cannot be properly trained and often causes explosions of varying intensity whenever she attempts spells outside its destructive nature. Despite this, she has demonstrated the ability to perform simpler incantations, though casting Void magic requires her to take time to gather power before releasing it. Louise, Saito, and their companions journey to Romalia, where they meet Henrietta and Pope Vittorio to discuss forming an alliance against King Joseph’s ambitions to conquer Halkeginia. During their stay, Louise and Tiffania are appointed as priestesses and participate in a ceremony honoring the Pope’s coronation. Later, Louise is captured by Joseph but is eventually freed following his defeat and the destruction of his fleet. Afterward, she returns to Tristain and attends a celebratory ball. Later, after rescuing Saito and Tiffania from the elven lands of Nephthys—where Saito temporarily became Tiffania’s familiar—they join in Tabitha’s coronation as Queen of Gallia. During this time, Louise overhears the Pope reveal that Saito’s Liveslatte power will eventually cost him his life once depleted. When the Ancient Dragon appears, Louise and her allies initially fail to defeat it, prompting her to send Saito back to his world through the World Door.

Name Meaning

Louise takes her name from Louise de La Vallière, born Françoise Louise de La Baume Le Blanc, who was a French noblewoman and served as the first mistress of King Louis XIV of France between 1661 and 1667. This name implies Louise herself is the equivalent to a French women in her world.

Appearance

General Description: Louise is a small and slender girl, easily recognized by her long pink hair and matching pink eyes. Her build emphasizes her youthful and delicate features.

Facial Features: She has a round, expressive face framed by her long hair. Her eyes are bright pink, complementing the color of her hair and giving her a distinct look.

Clothing/Outfit: She is most often seen in her school uniform, which includes a white blouse, a gray pleated skirt, and a black cloak draped over her shoulders. The cloak bears the school’s emblem, displayed on the collar of her blouse. Completing the outfit are long black socks that reach her thighs and black Mary Jane shoes.

Special Features: Her hair and eye color set her apart visually, both sharing the same shade of pink that is unusual and striking.

Alternate Outfit: On special occasions, Louise is seen wearing an elegant ball gown. The dress is long and flowing, with layered fabric that creates a sense of volume and grace. It features puffed short sleeves, a fitted bodice, and frilled edging along the neckline and hem. She accessorizes the gown with a small tiara and a delicate necklace, which add to the regal presentation. The outfit is completed with heeled shoes, giving her a refined and formal appearance that contrasts with her usual school attire.

Personality

• Noble Demeanor: Louise often strives to carry herself as a proper noble, presenting herself with pride and confidence. She values appearances and works to project strength and authority. Her view of a noble is different from the standard definition however, as she views a noble as one that fights to protect those in need and take up tasks no one else is willing to do.

• Strong Sense of Justice: Despite being a noble and thus viewing peasants as a lower class, she was the only noble to speak up about her and her two friends being rewarded when Saito, her peasant familiar, did most of the work and was the one who truly defeated the golem.

• Volatile Nature: Despite her efforts, Louise’s personality is highly volatile. She can quickly shift from calm to impatient or temperamental, with moments of shyness or reckless behavior contrasting her otherwise composed image.

• Generosity and Care: Beyond her temper, she has a capacity for kindness and loyalty. She is capable of genuine selflessness, offering thoughtful support to those she cares about. She has showcased many times showing genuine care for her familiar, Saito.

• Insecurity and Desire for Recognition: Her repeated struggles with magic, along with the disapproval of her family and peers, have left her with a deep need to prove her worth. This longing for validation often drives her actions and decisions.

• Courage Through Flaws: These conflicting traits push her into situations of great risk, such as when no one else was willing to volunteer to try and stop the thief from stealing the Staff of Destruction, she herself did, during the War, Tabitha’s rescue, and the confrontation with the Ancient Dragon.

Goals

• Help Saito get back home (Succeeded).

Relationships

Saito Hiraga

Saito and Louise's relationship is initially a master-servant relationship as Louise summons him as her familiar. Her first bit of care when she hears Saito is about to get into a fight with Guiche de Grammont, telling him to apologize as she didn't believe any peasant could defeat a noble. When getting hit by one of Guiche de Grammont's attacks, Louise out of worry calls Saito out by his name for the first time. After his fight, he is gravely injured and Louise personally attends to him to help him recover from his wounds. She says to him while teary eyed that he is her familiar and that she orders him to get up or she'll never forgive him. Siesta notes to Saito that Louise stayed up every night watching over Saito while he was passed out, changing his bandges, wiping the sweat from his brow and buying him only the best medicine. Louise notes to herself since Saito had no one to count on except her, she needs to take good care of him. To have Saito be able to defend himself, she took him out to town to get a sword. When facing off against a giant Golem, Louise refused to run away, noting that as a noble she will stand her ground and fight, with Saito slapping her telling her that pride is not worth her life and instead standing in to fight for her against the golem. When Foquet is defeated and the girls are busy getting promoted, Louise asks why does Saito not get a reward when he did more then all three of them.

During The Frigg Ball, Louise asks Saito to dance with her where she tells him that she believes that he came from a different world as it was hard to believe at first until she saw the staff of destruction. She then asks him if he wants to go home with Saito saying he does but he has no way of doing so at the moment so he will just stick around for now, with her smiling. She also thanks him for saving her life from the golem and Saito thanks her back for refusing to run away and giving him the chance to use the staff of destruction.

When Wardes, her fiance, is traveling with her on a secret mission for the princess, he suggests leaving Guiche and Saito behind as they're exhausted and he wishes to reach the town of La Rochelle before nightfall, but Louise refuses saying she cannot leave her familiar behind.

After Saito loses a duel against Wardes, he is in a depressed state where he realizes he's not fit to protect Louise and realizes there will truly be no way home, with the only reason he's even fine with staying in the current world is because of Louise. He later tries to fight to protect her against a bandit but gets hit with a lightning attack that causes him to pass out, with Louise worrying over him. Due to his frustrations of repeatedly failing to be a good protector for Louise, he refuses to accept any help on his burned arm, despite Louise worrying about it.

Later Wardes reveals to Saito he plans on marrying Saito the next day with Saito noting he will not be attending the wedding and leaving, telling his goodbyes to Louise as he doesn't believe he can protect her.

While on the ship, he notices that he can see what Louise can see through his left eye and worries that she might be in trouble. He makes it in time to save Louise before Wardes, who is revealed to by a traitor for the rebels, tries to kill her. During their fight, when Wardes attacks and nearly kills Louise, Saito feels a fire in his soul making him far faster and stronger with Wardes asking why does he love someone who will never reciprocate the feelings with Saito himself saying he doesn't believe it is love but a strong feeling to protect Louise. Afterwards Saito has Louise sleep on his shoulder during the trip back to let her rest.

After this event Louise started to act weirder around Saito, telling him he doesn't need to wash her clothes or prepare them anymore and defending Saito when people insulted him. She allows him to sleep in bed with her rather then on the floor, promising him that she will find a way to get him to go home. Though after another misunderstanding with Saito with Siesta on her bed, she lashes out on him again and tells Saito he's fired from being her familiar, Saito in response travels with friends to go on a treasure hunt where he finds a plane that he can use to travel to the East to learn more about how to get home. While this is done, Louise feels increasingly more lonely without Saito around, with people telling her that she treats him too roughly. After a short argument and reconciliation, she asks Saito if he really plans on using the plane to travel to the east and go home before asking him if she ordered him not to leave, would he go anyways. She claims this isn't out of love, but that when Saito is with her, she feels safe enough to sleep.

During the battle against the battleship Lexignton, Louise sneaks on board Saito's plane and helpps him fight against the enemies, where she prays for Saito's safety along with her own, unlocking void magic and using it while Saito protects her .

When Louise travels back home to beg her family to let her join in the war effort, Saito comes with her. Once her father tells he she can't and she must find someone to marry, she escapes to a nearby rowboat she always goes to whenever she's sad, Saito appears there and confesses his love for her with her being unable to reciprocate, but Saito can see through it. He starts to kiss her when a her family and their guards appear to try and lock Louise in the tower and behead Saito, though he grabs her and escapes.

During the war, Saito views people his age die, where he is very shaken up by this, Louise tries to comfort and hug him while half-naked.

Later on when 70,000 soldiers are entering the territory, the war generals enlist Louise to single-handedly hold them off, Saito is angered by this telling her she's being told to die but Louise accepts her fate as it meants protecting her friends, she asks Saito to marry her before she goes out to the battle, Saito agrees but shares wine with her here he put a sleeping potion inside of it for her to drink, he tells Louise he loves her and he truly means it before she falls unconscious from the potion and proceeds to face off the 70,000 soldiers by himself.

By the end of the series, they get married for real, with both confessing their love for each other.

Equipment

Magic Wand

A wand used by mages in order to perform their spells.

Saito Hiraga

Louise's familiar, while he initially seems like a mere regular human, he is in actuality the reincarnation of Gandalfr, the legendary familiar of the great ancestor, Brimir, one said to have such strength that it can defeat a thousand soldiers with a single sword strike and ordinary magic attacks were said to be useless against him. This allows him to master any weapon he takes in hand. She gave him the legendary sword Derflinger, an intelligent sword that can talk.

---

Notable Techniques

Explosion

Explosion Magic is Louise's signature spell, initially she always used it when trying to use other magics, having people call her "Louise the Zero" as they thought she had zero magic potential, but in actuality, this was her using Void magic without realizing it. A true explosion void spell causes a giant white light that swallows anyone she imagines and fully kills them.

She can use lesser non-lethal explosions also and has essentially a full control over her explosion magic, being able to spam multiple at once if she wishes.

Dispel

Dispel magic is the ability to remove something of magic entirely, while it does standard anti-magic techniques of nullifying magic, this one applies even to magic that's apart of physiology or forcefields, being able to remove someone's immortality entirely or their regeneration as it falls under the fundemental elements of the universe, long with this removing forcefields through dispelling it.

Illusion

Louise is able to create illusions through recreating anything she's seen, being able to trick people with them by making them chase after fake fleets that disappear after a dozen hours.

Teleport

Louise is able to teleport about "100 mails", being able to teleport as far as she can see. She is able to spam this spell to teleport multiple times.

World Door

World Door is a spell that opens a portla between two distant places, along with alternate universes and dimensions.

Fireball

Louise has attempted to use fireball twice, once against the Golem which Saito compared to a soap bubble being shot, and a stronger variant against Wardes, however it had no effect on him. She uses this little as fire is not the element she's attuned with.

---

Other

Standard Tactics: Louise utilizes explosion magic as her main form of combating while her familiar Saito protects her. She may also use spells such as illusion or dispel when the task calls for it.

Weaknesses

• Mage Weaknesses: Mages with their staffs or wands off their person are unable to use magic. Mages cannot use the spell 'Summon Servant' again until the familiar first summoned has died.
• Noble Weaknesses: To nobles, honor is more important then life itself, to this end they will do whatever even knowing they will very well die or be at a disadvantage if their honor is questioned or jeporadized.
• Familiar Weaknesses: The more the fire in Saito's heart is lost, the weaker his rune light gets and by proxy his ability to fight.
• Unique Weaknesses: Saito can ignore orders despite being Louise's familiar. Louise has shown bad aim with her spells. Her fire elemental attacks are weak, with Saito comparing it to a soap bubble, though she can use stronger versions of it as she progresses as a mage. As she's a void user, the other elements are not her natural affinity, making her not able to use them to their full extent, or in some cases, to a useful extent. Some of her spells require deep focus, which requires Saito to be protecting her as she starts the casting.

Explanations

Elements

When a mage performs a summoning spell, his or her magical element is revealed: Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, and Void, the fifth mythical element. The five magical elements are intricately entwined with all of nature, including humans. The four major elements of magic are fire, water, earth, and wind, together with void, the lost element, they make up the five points of the pentagram. Earth is the most important of all, being the element connected to life in all its forms.

Void

Void is the mysterious fifth element controlled by great ancestor Brimir, being a power that precedes all others and existed before creation itself, which this magic on can raise the dead, along with being theorized that void magic could be the key to eternal life or life after death. Void magic is noted to be something stronger than the four basic elements and exist itself as an element outside the four.

Alchemy

The basic magic of the earth element is alchemy, it can create metals or cut stones for construction and aid in harvesting crops.

Square Mage

A mage who can control the four elements: fire, water, earth, and wind.

Triangle Mage

A mage who can control three of the elements.

Line Mage

A mage who can control two of the elements.

Note

• A lot of the Light Novel is not properly translated and is instead machine translated, due to this the scans used center around using the manga, some of the light novel, and the anime.
  • In regards to continuity, all pieces of media are assumed to be apart of the same continuity, differences such as character deaths or some changes that didn't happen are not enough reason as there must be official word from the author or publisher themselves regarding this. As the author has unfortunately passed away and never mentioned anything regarding the anime or manga being not apart of the continuity and instead directly helping with the manga as an author, we take any of the changes as mere mistakes, retcons, or not important enough to remove from continuity. If anything, a mention from Yukari Higa, who worked on Zero's Familiar: Chevalier, notes that the author directly supported them and tells the viewer to continue the series either read the light novels or watch the third and fourth season of the anime, further showing even they are not treating it as different continuities. For more questions, please read the How to Handle Canon page.

Trivia

• The moniker "Louise" was inspired by the historical figure Françoise-Athénaïs, Marquise de Montespan, who served as a prominent mistress to King Louis XIV of France from 1661 to 1667. Following her tenure in the royal court, she was granted the titles of Duchess of La Vallière and later became the Duchess of Vaujours. Notably, she encountered individuals who bore striking similarities to the characters within the "Zero no Tsukaima" narrative, such as Henrietta, a member of the French nobility, the dashing Guiche de Gramont, and Jean-Baptiste Colbert, the influential minister of finance.
  • Due to this naming convention, Louise is likely meant to be an equivalent of French ethnicity in her world.
• Louise bears a strong resemblance to Taiga Aisaka (of Toradora) in both appearance and attitude. Both also nickname their male partners (Ryuuji Takasu and Saito Hiraga) 'dog'. They also have the same seiyuu. She also resembles Shana (from Shakugan No Shana) and she has a somewhat similar attitude to Aria in Aria: The Scarlet Ammo.
