Barbara (Anime)

Barbara (バーバラ) is a character of The Promised Neverland series. She is an ally and underling of Norman's, as well as a former Lambda experiment. Barbara is known for harboring a deep hated towards demons.

History
Barbara was long subjected to torturous and terrifying experiments, along with being drugged, at the experimental facility, Lambda 7214, along with Norman, Zazie, Vincent, and Cislo. She was repeatedly chained up, tortured, injured, and locked in empty rooms while living at Lambda. The horrible conditions Barbara was forced to live with at Lambda are what caused her to have a deep hatred towards all demons.

Barbara is eventually found along with Zazie and Cislo locked in a room, where they are rescued by Norman as he is destroying the facility. Barbara asks Norman if he is God, and immediately chooses to stay and fight by his side. She and the others join Norman with a mission to wipe all demons from existence.

Appearance
Barbara is a tall teenage girl with brown eyes. She has long, curly brown hair with pink streaks that she keeps in a high side ponytail. She wears denim shorts, and a black tank-top with a yellow star on the front, along with a red jacked and black boots.

Personality
Because of the experimentations and tests in Lambda 7214 that she had to endure from the demons, Barbara harbors a deep hatred, having a colder demeanor when talking about them. She's happy when she talks about killing and eating them as it takes away her frustations towards them. Out of the Lambda group, Barbara hates the demons the most.

Despite this however, she also has a kinder and softer side to her as she is grateful to Norman for helping her and the others escape. She won't hesitate to remain loyal to her companions' plans.

King of Paradise Arc
Barbara is first seen alongside Norman, Vincent, Cislo, and Zazie as they rescue Emma and Ray from two demons that were chasing them.

Later, Barbara is with Cislo and Vincent as she spots Emma and Ray looking for Norman. The groups introduce themselves, and Barbara pesters Emma and Ray into telling them more about Norman. Barbara and Cislo note how Norman is much different from how Emma and Ray describe him. She tells them that Norman saved everyone at Lambda, and that they would have died without him.

Barbara tells Emma and Ray of how much she loves killing demons and eating their meat, much to Emma and Ray's disgust. She states that it annoys her that demons are the only ones eating humans, and she will never forget what they did to her at Lambda, because every day there was like hell. Barbara stands on the table and declares that killing demons isn't enough, and that they deserve to suffer the same way the children did. She notices the look of horror on Emma's face, and tells her that she better not have any sympathy for demons, and she should not interfere with Norman's plans. Barbara yells more hatred towards the demon, and nearly breaks the table she is standing on in the process, before turning and leaving the room without another word.

Barbara, Cislo, and Vincent are waiting for Norman, and are delighted to see him arrive. Barbara is angered to find out that Emma and Ray do not want to kill all of the demons. Like the others, she is shocked to hear that the Evil Blooded Girl is still alive. Out of anger over hearing that Emma and Ray are friends with demons, Barbara shatters multiple glass jars. She breaks down into a Lambda seizure, and is given some pills from Vincent to take. Vincent says that the intervals between her seizures has shortened, and it is the same for him and the rest, and they don't have much time left. Barbara declares that demons deserve no sympathy, because this is what they do to humans.

Norman
Norman saved Barbara from Lambda along with many others. Because of this, she is forever grateful towards him and thinks highly of him.
