Description
Cleopatra is a central figure in the anime Ghost Concert: missing Songs, appearing as one of the primary antagonists or catalysts for the story's events. In the world of 2045, where singing has been banned and all music is generated by an application called MiucS, Cleopatra exists as a Great Ghost. She is a legendary figure from the ancient past, specifically the Queen of Egypt, who has returned from the realm of the dead. Her existence is a direct challenge to the world's sterile status quo, as she is first discovered by the protagonist, Seria Aiba, through the sound of her singing a forbidden song.
As a Great Ghost, Cleopatra is not a physical being in the traditional sense. Instead, she is an otherworldly spirit whose nature allows her to form a unique bond with Seria. The defining mechanic of their relationship is the Possession Requiem, a resonation that allows Cleopatra to possess Seria's body. This possession is not merely an act of control but is framed as a duet partnership, making Cleopatra Seria's first partner in the series. Through this bond, they can combine Seria's physical presence with Cleopatra's spectral power and musical ability to participate in the song battles that define the series. Her role in the story is therefore deeply intertwined with Seria, as she provides the means and the forbidden power of music that sets them on their path against the forces that have outlawed song.
The character's background is rooted in her historical identity as a powerful ruler, which is re-contextualized within the supernatural framework of the anime. She is explicitly identified as a Great Ghost, a category of spirits that includes other legendary figures, suggesting she possesses immense inherent power and will. While her personality and motivations are not detailed extensively in pre-release information, her core motivation can be inferred from her actions. By singing in a world where music is prohibited, she actively defies the established order. Her decision to partner with Seria suggests a desire to express herself through music and perhaps a goal that requires a living partner to achieve. Her key relationship is undoubtedly with Seria Aiba, the high school girl who can see and touch spirits. This relationship is symbiotic; Cleopatra needs Seria as a vessel to interact with the world and unleash her song, while Seria gains the power to fight and break the world's silence.
Regarding her development, as the series is yet to premiere, specific character arcs are not available. However, her central role as a possessing spirit and duet partner implies that her development will be directly linked to Seria's own journey. The narrative theme of a forbidden song and a bond between a living girl and a ghost queen suggests a story about connection, rebellion, and the rediscovery of emotion in a sterile world. Her notable ability is her existence as a Great Ghost, which inherently grants her the power to sing and perform music in a world that has outlawed it. Her primary power is the Possession Requiem, through which she merges with Seria to fight. This ability is the core of the series' song battle concept, where their combined voices and strength become a weapon against those who enforce the ban on music. Information regarding any further distinct powers or her personal history within the narrative remains unavailable prior to the series release.
