Mytho is the prince of the story. He was once noble and kind, sacrificing himself to protect the weak and the needy. However, when he was battling the monster raven, he shattered his own heart in order to seal the raven away. Now as a talented and popular senior at Gold Crown Academy (or "Kinkan" Academy, the Japanese pronunciation of the town's name), he possesses no emotions and is largely dependent on Fakir for his well-being and survival. Over the course of the series and particularly the first season, Mytho associates his new emotions with Princess Tutu, making him both drawn to her and afraid of her. In the second half of the series, Mytho changes because Kraehe soaks in the Raven's blood the piece of his heart that contained his feelings of love. As the Raven's blood starts to consume him, he tries to steal girls' hearts to sacrifice to the raven and begins verbally abusing Rue. Fortunately, Rue's true love for him and willingness to sacrifice herself for his sake helps him overcome the raven's blood when the last heart shard is returned. He then rescues Rue and makes her his princess. At the end of the anime, Mytho's real name is revealed to be Siegfried, the name of the prince in the ballet Swan Lake from which Princess Tutu borrows plot elements.[citation needed]
