Sophia Forrester (Σοφια Φορεστρ) (ソフィア・フォレスター?) is one of the main characters from the 2003 anime series Last Exile.
Sophia Forrester is the Silvana's nineteen-year-old first officer and holds the title Vice-Captain. Another graduate of the Anatoray Officer's Academy along with Vincent Alzey, she is one of the few people Alex Row trusts and is often seen left in command of the ship when the Captain is out in pursuit of his own agenda. Interestingly Sophia was assigned to be an onboard spy to reveal anything to the emperor, but Sophia fell in love with Alex and never revealed anything compromising about Alex. During the series, it is revealed that Sophia is actually the princess of Anatoray, which comes as a shock to the rest of the crew. But all of the feelings of unrest about Sophia's true identity comes to rest when they see that deep inside she is still their executive officer, and loyal to both the Silvanna and Alex. Her feelings for Alex sometimes reveal too much, much to Row's chagrin in his sometimes snarky comments to her. Sophia is of royal heritage and the daughter of the Anatoray emperor.
At times in the series, she feels that she is unloved, both by Row's visible actions to her and her father's response to her when she returns to the capital city. On her final night on Silvana, she put her hair down. This gave her an even stronger resemblance to Euris, Alex's dead fiance. Alex wasn't pleased at all with her appearance and told her off, calling her free flowing hair unbecoming of an officer. Feeling down she went outside to look at the skies when Claus Valca happened to be there and they had a heartful conversation. Sophia felt better after talking to Claus and even gave him his first kiss on the lips. With the death of her father, she became empress of Anatoray and sought the alliance of Disith against the Guild, having realized that the Guild was playing both countries against each other. She became the captain of the Silvana after Alex's demise, having ordered the ship to attack the Guild's flagship, with Alex and Maestro Delphine Eraclea on board.
Sophia's Japanese voice actor was Wakana Yamazaki. Her American voice actor was Julie Ann Taylor.
