Description
Minister Dorian is a supporting character in the Onegai My Melody anime series. He serves as the Prime Minister of Mariland, a magical realm inhabited by sentient stuffed animals. He is depicted as a mole who wears sunglasses and often uses a kickboard for travel within Mariland.
Dorian is characterized by his serious and diligent nature. He possesses a strong sense of duty and responsibility, which frequently puts him at odds with the easygoing and often irresponsible King of Mariland. Dorian takes his role as the king's advisor and servant very seriously, and he is known to become frustrated when the king’s careless decisions create problems. He has been shown to argue with the king, expressing pent-up dissatisfaction over their long working relationship. Despite his frustrations, he remains loyal and committed to the well-being of Mariland and its inhabitants.
Dorian's motivation stems from his dedication to his country and his desire to maintain order. He is often tasked with relaying the king’s orders to others, such as when My Melody is sent to the human world to collect Pink Notes. He also takes part in attempts to capture the escaped convicts Kuromi and Baku.
In the story, Dorian plays a supporting role as a governmental figure who assists the king and occasionally interacts directly with the main characters. His most notable moment occurs during the third season, Onegai My Melody Sukkiri. After the king is deposed, a stray black note transforms Dorian into a Huff-Huff, a rampaging version of himself fueled by amplified anger. My Melody is able to refresh him using the Hyper Melody Takt, after which he returns to his normal state. This event triggers the competition between My Melody and Kuromi to become the next ruler of Mariland.
Dorian’s key relationships include his strained but enduring partnership with the king, his respectful but distant interactions with My Melody, and his awareness of the queen’s monitoring of the king’s behavior. He has no notable magical abilities of his own, but he is knowledgeable about the workings of Mariland and its magical artifacts, such as the Melody Takt. His role is that of a competent, overworked bureaucrat trying to keep his whimsical monarch and chaotic realm in check.
