Poco's Sister

Poco's Sister (ポコの姉) is a minor character introduced in Phantom Blood. She's the older sister of Poco.

Appearance
Poco's Sister is a young British girl with long dark hair, which she ties into either ponytails or braids. She has a beautiful face, making Dio take an interest in her.

Otherwise Poco's Sisters wears rather plain clothes, dress, jacket and coat, as a member of the working class of 19th Century England.

Personality
Poco's Sister is a particularly fierce and righteous girl. Even in the past, she would stand up to Poco's bullies, frightening them away. At the same time, she chided and did slap Poco because of his weakness, encouraring him to become less cowardly. Even in front of the terryfing Vampire Dio Brando, she refused his temptations for immortality and slapped him.

She nonetheless shows also a caring side, as while she reprimanded Poco, she also took care of him after his beatings and risked venturing into the night to look for him.

Background
She first appears in Poco's flashback from when he was bullied by the other boys, who run at the sight of her. She then asks Poco when he will stop being a coward and start fighting back. Upon hearing him answer with "tomorrow", she replies with a slap for his cowardly behavior and takes him back home.

Phantom Blood
After Poco meets the heroes, they take him home, only to learn from his father that his sister left in the night to search for him. It would turn out that Poco's sister was held captive in the castle by Dio, the vampire noting her age and killing one of his zombie pets for making a lewd comment. Dio proceeds to seduce her into joining his legion of the undead willingly, offering her eternal life and beauty. But the girl slaps him, calling him a monster pretending to be a man.

Dio remains composed and takes his leave, telling the girl that perhaps she prefers the company of his zombie minion, instead. Just before the monster could kill her, Jonathan appears and saves her. During Jonathan's battle with Dio, she and her brother are protected by Straizo from as he and the others eliminate Dio's zombies. After the battle's end, her last appearance is with her brother and the other characters on the port as they wish Jonathan and Erina a good honeymoon.

Phantom Blood (PS2 Game)
Much like the original storyline, her appearance in the game is limited to small roles in cutscenes before and after some battles.
