Kanan Zebel is a central character in Mistress Kanan is Devilishly Easy, a female devil of gluttony and gourmet appetites whose true name is Kanan Zebul.
Kanan Zebel is the daughter of Beelzebub, the devil of gluttony and fine cuisine.
She is presented as the story’s central figure.
To eat delicious souls, she infiltrates the human world as a student at Tama Municipal Hono Academy, a high school.
There, she sets her sights on Youji Kyougi as food, only to somehow end up entering a lover’s contract with him and beginning a romantic relationship.
At school, Kanan serves as the head of the disciplinary committee.
She is a beautiful young woman with a very large bust, described as a J-cup.
She is admired for both her looks and her abilities.
She is elegant, intelligent, talented, athletic, and well liked by both boys and girls.
Her popularity is matched by the trust others place in her.
This makes her stand out as one of the most admired students on campus.
Despite her composed and capable image, Kanan is surprisingly innocent in matters of love.
She has no romantic experience at all.
She can become flustered to an extreme degree over even the smallest signs of intimacy.
For example, she believes that simply holding hands with a boy could result in producing an heir.
She also reacts intensely when someone calls her by her given name.
In such moments, she is described as feeling as if her brain is overflowing with pleasure chemicals.
This contrast between her dignified public image and her pure, easily embarrassed inner self is one of her defining traits.
It gives her a charm that is both comedic and endearing.
As a devil, Kanan possesses naturally high physical potential.
Her basic physical abilities are excellent.
However, she has poor endurance.
Even though she can run fast, she tires quickly enough that Youji Kyougi can catch up to her.
This gap between raw ability and stamina adds a humorous weakness to her otherwise impressive profile.
It also keeps her from feeling invincible.
Kanan initially enters the human world with a predatory goal.
She wants to consume a delicious soul.
Her target is Youji Kyougi, but her plans do not unfold as expected.
Instead of merely hunting him, she becomes bound to him through a lover’s contract and begins dating him.
That shift drives much of her character appeal.
She moves from hunter to awkward, sincere romantic heroine.
In the heroine popularity poll, Kanan placed first.
This reflects her strong appeal as the series’ leading heroine.
