Emilia/Relationships

Natsuki Subaru
Effectively her benefactor and first actual friend whom she had saved. Subaru is also the first non-elf that did not begrudge her due to her heritage and the first person to ever express genuine love for her. Due to that, Emilia felt deeply happy and relieved that someone acknowledged her existence and didn't disparage her bloodline. After Subaru's fight with Julius Juukulius, Emilia and Subaru had a fight because she didn't want him to involve him in her troubles and didn't want Subaru to share those bad memories with her. After much suffering and anguish, Subaru finally got the chance to express his heartfelt love for Emilia and why she was so special to him.

After many trials and tribulations together, she began to subconsciously develop feelings for Subaru during the latter half of Arc 4. Emilia felt really glad that Subaru called her a troublesome woman and gave her proper attention, and after their relationship strengthened, he officially became her knight. Emilia became more aware of her innermost feelings towards him in the successive arcs. In Arc 5, after she gets kidnapped by Regulus Corneas to force her to marry him, Emilia, who believes that marriage is special between two people, told Regulus that when the time comes, she has decided who she wants to marry. She is, however, still held back by grappling with what it means to love someone more than just platonically, and wishes to better understand her true feelings.

Later down the line, when she thought back to the moment Subaru asked her name, she noticed how truly happy that made her feel. After a while, she managed to realized how Subaru became special to her in the same way she became special for him, marking the beginning of their somewhat mutual love. She also started to show jealousy when Subaru became close to other women. Also, the person that Emilia wanted to remember her the most after her name was eaten was Subaru. Multiple times during the events of Arc 6, Emilia has been shown to have deep rooted trust in him, being indescribably happy when Subaru stated he still remembered her name, even after Lye Batenkaitos ate her and her name was erased from the world.

Puck
Emilia's loyal partner and surrogate father. According to their contract, even if Puck's mana is too low, he will do his job in order to protect her until his death. Puck provided Emilia mental support when people shunned her, protected her from thugs and even defeated Melakuera who wanted to kill Emilia in Frozen Bonds OVA. Puck's backstory and his exact relationship is not fully revealed however, Puck is extremely loyal to her since he searched for her for 300 years and then waited 100 years until Emilia thawed herself from the ice.

In Anastasia's Memory Snow SS, it is implied that Puck protected the area where his beloved daughter is currently sleeping for 100 years. He is very overprotective of Emilia and loves her the most. Similarly, Emilia loves Puck almost as much as Fortuna. Even the reason Emilia has long hair is because Puck praised her long hair. After Puck broke his contract with Emilia in arc 4 so that Emilia can complete the trials (since Puck's contract blocked Emilia's memories), Emilia was in despair. Although Puck was sure that one day Emilia will find him again and make a contract with only him in the future. Emilia also went to Priestella in order to get a crystal for Puck (since the old one broke) to again make a contract with him but she lacked the mana to do so for now.

Satella
Certain people, such as Echidna and Pandora, have referred to Emilia as "the witch's daughter," with Pandora also mentioning that she was of the witch's bloodline after seeing her power, hinting at some sort of connection between Emilia and Satella, though nothing has been explained.

Rem
One of Roswaal's servants. After her existence was robbed by the archbishop of gluttony, Lye, Emilia became willing to assist in helping Subaru return her back to normal.

Ram
One of Roswaal's servants and in turn her servant. Usually spends more time with her than Rem. After the harrowing events of Arc 4, they become much closer and friends in the truest sense.

Roswaal L Mathers
Emilia's benefactor and backer for her bid to acquire the throne. He's considered an odd lord, especially due to his fondness for demi-humans like her to the point where he would hire them. In truth, he was only actually using her to control Subaru and coerce him into using Return by Death to fulfill his ambition of reviving his late master through the wits of his Gospel. To do so he needed a guaranteed way to put Emilia on the throne because he had no faith in Emilia's resolve to overcome her past and deeply-rooted hatred of the Witch of Envy. However, with the encouragement and support of Subaru and several others, Emilia shatters his expectations by passing all 3 of Echidna's trials. He is then forced into backing her earnestly.

Beatrice
Post events of Arc 4, she and Emilia have become good friends after Beatrice became more sociable.

Otto Suwen
After throwing his lot with her after the events of Arc 4, he's become a personal adviser to Emilia. Otto also sympathies with her circumstances as he too had suffered under discrimination in his childhood and views her as a strong person to bare all that.

Felt
After the harrowing events of Arc 1 where she helped saved her life, Felt has come to respect Emilia and regards her as a big sister.

Crusch Karsten
Though she has only spoken to her after Crusch's memory loss, the highborn lady did not think any less of her because of her true nature and treated Emilia with the utmost respect as both a worthy rival and potential friend. Because of this, Emilia regards her as an explanatory and warm-hearted person.

Pandora
Pandora seems to be acquainted with Emilia's family and is implied to have been involved with what happened to her parents. Pandora has referred to Emilia as "the witch's daughter."

Fortuna
Her parental aunt and only known living blood-relative. She raised her in place of her parents for most of her early life. Emilia considers Fortuna to be her real mother because of it.

Petelgeuse Romanee-Conti
Petelgeuse knew Emilia when she was a child, and often asked about her health. Emilia's attitude toward him was hostile at first, as she viewed him as a rival for Fortuna's affections. However, she viewed him in a better light seeing him break down in tears of joy when he saw her for the first time. She eventually came to like him to the point of pretending to have a stomachache for Fortuna to let her see him. Petelgeuse in turn cared about her deeply, and viewed her like a daughter, as he tried to protect her with his life when Regulus and Pandora attacked her forest. However, after he went mad, he no longer recognizes her.

Echidna
Echidna claims to have hated Emilia from the moment she first saw her. During her trial, during which Emilia was forced to face her past, Echidna made several derogatory remarks at the half-elf, mocking her for her dependence on Subaru. Echidna also seems to have some knowledge about Emilia's parents, claiming that she is as just as stubborn as her mother. Echidna adds that she personally knows her real mother and it is one of the reasons for her hatred. Despite all this, Emilia mentioned that she doesn't hate Echidna at all.

Volcanica
During their first meeting, Volcanica was shown to be hostile to Emilia as he didn't allow her to reach the top of the tower. Although when Emilia's name returned after Lye Batenkaitos' death, Volcanica mistook Emilia for Satella and treated her with kindness. When Emilia mentioned "Witch of Envy", Volcanica deduced that Emilia has been taken over by "Witch of Envy" and becomes aggressive. After their heated battle, Emilia is able to calm down Volcanica and be on neutral terms with him. She even introduces Julius and others to Volcanica and also implies that Volcanica suffers from "dementia" with Volcanica's physical strength still being great like it once was but his mental strength only at 10%.
