Description
Anko-san is the magical familiar of the Professor, a legendary scholar and former top court magician who serves as a teacher at the Royal Academy. As a familiar, Anko-san is a black cat who is almost always seen by the Professor's side, accompanying him throughout his daily activities at the Royal Academy and beyond. Despite the Professor's formidable reputation as a powerful magic-user with a cunning and intimidating presence, Anko-san reveals a softer, more approachable side to his master.
In terms of personality, Anko-san appears to be an amiable and gentle creature. The familiar is particularly close to Allen, the protagonist and private tutor to the duke's daughter, and is known to especially enjoy being brushed. This affectionate and companionable nature makes Anko-san a comforting presence within the story, serving as a contrast to the more intense and awe-inspiring characters. The cat's charming personality has made it a well-liked figure among those who interact with it.
Anko-san's role in the narrative is primarily as a non-human companion and observer. As the Professor's familiar, the cat is a constant fixture in his life, from his work at the Royal Academy to his interactions with former students such as the current king and queen. Anko-san also plays a more active part in events, accompanying Allen and other characters on their travels. On one such occasion, when the group visited a hot springs inn owned by the Algren household, Anko-san tagged along. Furthermore, the cat was used by Allen in a peaceful resolution to a potential conflict, where he employed Anko to convince a griffin not to attack the group, demonstrating the familiar's usefulness beyond mere companionship.
The most significant relationship Anko-san has is with the Professor, to whom the cat is bound as a magical familiar. This bond is a central aspect of Anko-san's identity and place in the world. Anko-san also shares a notable bond with Allen, the young private tutor, with whom the cat is very close. This connection allows Anko-san to move between the Professor's circle and Allen's group of friends and students, acting as a subtle link between the legendary older generation and the promising younger characters.
Regarding development, specific details about changes or growth in Anko-san's character throughout the series are not extensively documented. The familiar maintains a consistent presence as a loyal and beloved companion to the Professor and a friendly creature to others. Notably, the Professor is also the secretary of the Royal Capital Cat Lovers Association, a position that underscores a deep appreciation for felines and provides context for his close bond with Anko-san. As a magical familiar, Anko-san likely possesses innate abilities beyond those of an ordinary cat, including a level of intelligence and potential for minor magical utility, as evidenced by its role in pacifying the griffin. However, the full extent of its supernatural capabilities is not detailed in available information.
