List of The Vision of Escaflowne characters
This is a list of characters for the anime series The Vision of Escaflowne.
Voiced by: Maaya Sakamoto (Japanese); Kelly Sheridan (Bandai dub), Caitlin Glass (Funimation dub) (English)
Hitomi Kanzaki (神崎ひとみ, Kanzaki Hitomi) is the protagonist of The Vision of Escaflowne, appearing as an ordinary school girl with a crush on her track team friend, Amano. She meets and saves the life of Van, a young prince who crossed a portal from a different world to slay a dragon. Transported to Van's world, Gaea, she finds her fate is intertwined with his, even if her heart still belongs to Amano. She later meets Allen, a gallant knight who bears an uncanny resemblance to Amano, but realizes her true love is Van. Lost in Gaea with no apparent way to return home, Hitomi finds that her hobby of tarot card reading is becoming frighteningly accurate, complete with visions of both the past and future that shed light on this alien, war-torn world.
Hitomi has a very realistic personality; she's shy, caring, forgiving, and also has a temper. She is often afraid but pushes herself to do the right thing. Reserved yet prone to random displays of affection, she is, for the most part, honest, telling little white lies to benefit herself. She wants the best for others and at times, even herself, as she seeks love and friendship. As a member of her school's track team, she is also a capable amateur athlete in long-distance running.
In the movie, Hitomi's portrayal is very different. This version of her is depressed and in a deep melancholy brought on by feelings of loneliness and the story shows her slowly overcoming this. She also does not show an interest in tarot card reading or have any psychic powers.

Van Slanzar de Fanel (バァン・ファーネル, Baan Fāneru) is the young half-Draconian King of Fanelia who must learn to cope with drastic changes in his life after Fanelia is destroyed by Zaibach. He pilots Escaflowne, a 8.09-meter (26.5 ft) Guymelef made by the mysterious Ispano tribe which can transform into a flying dragon. He earns his right to pilot Escaflowne through a blood pact which connects his body and soul to Escaflowne. Due to the blood pact and Hitomi's influence, Van becomes injured when the Escaflowne is damaged, and these wounds will not close until Escaflowne is repaired. Consequently, if Escaflowne is destroyed, Van will die.
His destiny and Hitomi's are linked, and he is initially dependent on Hitomi's clairvoyant abilities, which save his life more than once. He also holds a grudge against Folken for leaving his native Kingdom of Fanelia for Zaibach and Dornkirk for his grand ambitions. Due to being half-Draconian, Van is able to manifest a pair of feathered wings which enable him to fly. At first he treats Hitomi as a valued teammate, but falls in love with her as the series progresses.
