Margit Route[]
Margit has returned to Germany to report her current mission and is in a conversation with her boss, Frank Friedrich, and has been assigned another assignment of locating and disposing of any men after his daughter. The two likely suspects, Shouichi Kazuma and Yamato Naoe, are the only men that can be considered people that can be in a relationship with Chris, but Cap't denied that fact for he has no interest in women, leaving Yamato as the only suspect.
As days go by while investigating Yamato, she has been liking him more as a man, but kept on denying this feeling until Frank himself, came to Japan to personally investigate Yamato with Margit by taking him somewhere remote. During the interrogation Frank pointed his gun at Yamato, stating that he was "cleaning it", while asking if Yamato has a relationship with Chris. Seeing no other way out, he called out to Margit, saying that he likes her, surprising them both, mostly Margit. Frank gives them his blessing and leaves them the entire day alone with each other.
The two decided to spend their time at the beach, the distance between them shrinked, to the point Margit lets Yamato refer to her with her nickname. At the end of the day Margit enjoyed her time with Yamato, but after Yamato reminded that they'll return to their everyday life again after this, Margit paused for a brief moment as it sinks to her head. She started telling Yamato how she feelt the whole day, she was happy that she gets to experience a date with Yamato and being treated as a normal girl for once. But remembering thaat she is a soldier, and it might interfere with her work, Margit insisted Yamato to remember this as a one time thing, hearing this, Yamato did whatever he could to convince her and succeeded, but it was just the beginning.

Several weeks has passed since the event in Majikoi S, Yamato and Margit relationship are mostly kept as a secret, other than some people and the Kazama Family know about the them, as if word of their civilian and special forces relationship got leaked, it would only risk trouble.

Upon learning of how Lisa drug Yamato and was assaulted by him, Yamato has no memory of the event due too the drugs. Margit proceed to punish Lisa.
Appearance[]
Margit has red eyes with slit pupils, and long red hair that goes past her waist (some would consider her hair to be 'fiery' in appearance as a result as well). She mainly uses her military uniform. Margit has an eye-patch covering her left eye to restrict her own power and only takes it off when she finds a worthy opponent.
In A-5 she wears her Hound uniform as well as sporting a general coat as a cape and with her sheathed tonfas.
Personality[]
As an soldier of the Germany military, Margit is loyal and extremely serious with her missions. When she was young, she was chosen by Frank Friedrich because of her hardworking nature, being called a prodigy by her peers, because of this she is prideful of her rank and strength. She is also very protective, especially towards Chris, since she is her superior, Frank's daughter. She tends to talk in a forceful manner yet sometimes gentle like a mother who's harsh but only because she cares for her children. Her personality changes in A-5 while she is still serious she has become more kinder towards everyone else noted by everyone. She is also shown to be easily jealous towards other girls if they praise Yamato. It was revealed that she likes to think of herself as a Hound.
Because Margit has been a soldier her entire life, her life's experience didn’t give her the confidence to be considered a cute/beautiful woman, due to this, she is weak to girlish flattery such as "cute", which was only seen by Chris and Yamato. It was further shown in her route that one of her dreams is to live as a normal girl.
Powers and Abilities[]
Because she was trained in the military since she was little, she has been shown as one of the most powerful character. Combined with her natural talent in calculation, she soon earned her name The Hound and also became one of the strongest people in Europe. She is also one of the smartest as shown throughout the series as she is usually placed 4th during exams. Also because she has so many talents she was later placed in the S-Class to secretly watch over Chris. Other than that she has also some abilities like:
Immense Strength: During her stay in Europe, her strength was so overwhelming that she had to handicap herself so she could enjoy a fight longer. Because of her eye-patch, her vision is limited so it restricts her strength. Only when she meets worthy opponents or when getting serious does she take off her eye-patch. When it is removed, her aura changes and her strength and speed are several times greater. Her personality also changes becoming more fierce and predatory. It has been said by Chris that she could fight equally against her, but when she takes it off, Chris is not sure if she can win. It is also noted that Margit and Azumi are equally matched when Margit has her eye-patch on. But when she takes it off, she would probably win against her. She even fight on par with Benkei Musashibou and Momoyo Kawakami for a short time.
Master Tonfa Wielder: Margit uses mainly her tonfas in battle. She has been shown to be very strong and fierce when fighting with them as if they are part of her body. Also Margit herself has mentioned that her guard with her tonfa is as strong as a castle wall. She can also throw her tonfas with great precision.
Expert Melee Combatant: Thanks to ther military experience, Margit is very skilled in close combat, as shown when she overpowered Homura Ootomo during Exchange War, where she mercilessly beating Ootomo before finishing her with the Tonfa Maelstorm technique.
Leadership Military Experience: Due to her early years spent in serving the German army forces. Margit has gained a lot of military combat and strategic experiences and leadership skills during her time leading the Hound Unit. Combined with her physical prowess, Margit Eberbach are widely regarded as the finest of Europe and even given the title of "German Prodigy".
Weaknesses[]
Bad Cook: Even though she has many talents, she is a very bad cook. During her own route in Majikoi S, she stated that she doesn't know how to cook for herself and that she mostly uses military food. She confirmed the reason for this is because since she is a soldier in the military, she doesn't need to be a good cook. In Majikoi S and A-5 however, Margit becomes a decent cook too the point that Frank and Chris like her cooking and Yamato wanting more of her homemade cooking.
Feminine Activities: Shown in the early stages of her S route, Margit gets too easily flustered and embarrassed over doing feminine activities, this is to the point that she turns red with embarrassment just by being called cute or wearing cloths similar to Christiane Friedrich's preference. She seems to have improved a little during her A route to the point she wants to wear those "embarrassing" clothes again on her net date with Yamato.
Techniques[]
The fighting techniques that she has been using so far in the Majikoi! S story.
Tonfa Shoot: Margit throws her tonfa into the enemy or their weapon. Used against Homura Ootomo during the East-West Exchange War to jam her cannon before it could fire in the common route.
Tonfa Maelstrom: Margit attacks her opponent rapidly with her tonfas, ending with strikes that launch them into the air behind her. Used against Ootomo Homura during the East-West Exchange War in the common route. This finisher also creates powerful gusts of winds when she used this move against Momoyo Kawakami.
