Fakir is Mytho's roommate and a talented ballet dancer. At the start of the series, Fakir appears to be very cruel - he's rude and forceful, especially to Mytho, as well as possessive. Fakir tries to prevent Princess Tutu from restoring the prince's heart shards and discourages Mytho's initial experiences with emotions. 
Eventually, the series reveals that Fakir only wanted to protect Mytho from repeating the tragic events of the past. As the series progresses, Fakir loses his possessiveness and becomes less closed off, primarily through Duck's antics and his realization that Mytho himself wants his heart back. In the anime, Drosselmeyer's story The Prince and The Raven includes a knight who is to protect the prince and ends up dying by the claws of the raven. Fakir took on the role of the knight when he found Mytho long ago, and is also thought to be the reincarnation of said knight from the story, due to the scar-like birthmark that cuts across his chest, like the wound that ended the knight in the fairy tale. 
By joining Princess Tutu on her quest and allowing the story of The Prince and the Raven to start again, he both accepted and attempted to defy the fate of the knight. In the second season of the anime, Fakir's role changes when he accepts his real power, passed down to him from Drosselmeyer, in that what he writes can become true. However, his power does not always work. When he was a child, he attempted to use it once to save the town from ravens; instead, both his parents were killed trying to defend him in the resulting attack. This left him traumatized and afraid to use his power.
Duck helps him accept his power and he begins to write again. As the second season progresses, Fakir grows increasingly fond of Duck while they work together to aid Mytho. 
He comes to realize that while he is unable to write for Mytho or himself, he can write for Duck, and becomes increasingly protective of her. When Drosselmeyer drives Duck into the Lake of Despair, Fakir goes after her and they dance a pas de deux, often used in ballet to indicate a love relationship, while agreeing that it is okay for them to be their true selves instead of being led by the story.

I don't understand the end ? I'm french, you mean at the end, even the story don't tell it, Fakia and Duck are in love and they become together ???
ReplyDeleteThis is kind of late, so I don't know if you ever found your answer...
DeleteFakir and Duck, I think, have more of a romantic friendship... where they are just happy to be with each other.
If you haven't seen Princess TuTu, even with these spoilers, I recommend watching them if it's available in French. It's an incredible story.
