Description
Jessica Ushiromiya is the sole heir of Krauss and Natsuhi Ushiromiya, positioning her in the Ushiromiya succession line as the daughter of Kinzo's firstborn son. Born August 25, 1968, she is 18 during the 1986 Rokkenjima events. Patriarchal tradition complicates her potential inheritance, as headship would pass to a future husband rather than to her directly. She openly rebels against this responsibility and her parents' expectations for refined conduct, frequently clashing with them.
Fair-skinned and slender, Jessica has curly blonde hair usually in a ponytail. Her eye color varies across adaptations: black in the visual novel, grayish-blue in the anime, and clear blue in the PS3 version. Her typical attire is a blue jacket over a white blouse with a red tie, a red miniskirt, knee-length stockings, and black shoes. The Ushiromiya One-Winged Eagle crest adorns her jacket sleeve.
Impulsive, tomboyish, and blunt, Jessica defies her mother's push for traditional femininity and resists inheritance discussions, though underlying concern for her parents remains. Born with weak bronchi, she suffers asthma attacks; Kanon often carries a spare bronchodilator for her. She is fiercely loyal and determined, especially in pursuing Kanon. As her school's student council president, she leads a rock band, singing and playing guitar. She carries brass knuckles, reflecting her hot-headedness. Magically, she can punch faster than sound and enchant her knuckles with effects like armor-piercing or fire. Contracting demons Ronove, Zepar, and Furfur grants her regeneration, enhanced offense, and the ability to create high-class barriers.
Her primary relationship is with the servant Kanon. She persistently pursues him despite his reluctance stemming from his self-view as "furniture." Their bond evolves, culminating in mutual acknowledgment of feelings during *Dawn of the Golden Witch*. Jessica shares close bonds with cousins like George Ushiromiya but often clashes with Battler Ushiromiya over his behavior.
Across the narrative arcs:
- In *Legend of the Golden Witch*, she survives until the tenth twilight before being killed.
- *Turn of the Golden Witch* sees her die protecting Kanon from Beatrice's stakes; their spirits later defend him against murder accusations.
- During *Banquet of the Golden Witch*, Eva blinds her; Kanon's ghost guides her to evade EVA-Beatrice.
- In *Alliance of the Golden Witch*, she engages in magical combat with Ronove before dying when teleported George causes fatal head trauma.
- *Dawn of the Golden Witch* depicts her using enchanted attacks to kill Kyrie during Kinzo's trial.
- *Requiem of the Golden Witch* shows her killed by Kyrie in the Tea Party.
- *Twilight of the Golden Witch* reveals her survival until the end in Bernkastel's game, where Rudolf, Kyrie, and Battler kill her.
Jessica appears in spin-offs like *Golden Fantasia* with an alternate color palette matching Natsuhi's and features in stage plays, including one where she cosplays as characters from *Higurashi When They Cry*.
