Juliet Starling (ジュリエット・スターリング Jurietto Sutāringu) is the main protagonist and player-character of Lollipop Chainsaw.
A graduating student and head cheerleader at San Romero High School, on the surface Juliet seems to be a normal Californian girl, but in reality she has a dark secret: Juliet is a descendant of a long line of Zombie Hunters, sworn to destroy the Undead. Her weapon of choice is a powerful chainsaw, combined with her various unarmed combat techniques based on her cheer-leading moves.
On the day of her eighteenth birthday, her school is flooded with zombies, so Juliet must wield her chainsaw and defeat the horde before her birthday party later the same day. She also has two sisters Rosalind Starling and Cordelia Starling.

Character Description
Edit
Personality
Edit
Juliet is percieved as an enthusiastic, amiable, effervescent, naive, lollipop-admiring cheerleader by many of those around her. But outside her social life, many are unbeknowst to her shocking family secret. Her inner personality exemplifies a mature but an offensive nature, with an enjoyment of zombie slaughter, regardless of some of those who may be. These personal traits tend to overlap or get incosistent based on the point of her focus or mood.
Appearance
Edit
Juliet has golden blonde hair, that is placed into two curled-point ponytails, by two pink and white trimmed scrunchies, and with a few bangs across each side. She is noted for her fair skin, soft features, blue eyes and curvaceous figure.
She wears the standard San Romero Cheerleading outfit, which consists of a small purple top, that is supported by two ties, and has the San Romero High School Logo, saying "San Romero Knights" with the "I' of Knights being a medieval lance. Her outfit also comes with a white lining, purple skirt with a pink underlining, and a red belt. She is also wearing white, purple lining stockings with words "San Romero" placed on them, with red leg warmes and red and white sneakers.
Etymology
Edit
The name Juliet was likely taken from the main heroine of the famous 1596 Shakespeare play Romeo and Juliet. Juliet and both of her sisters are named after characters in plays written by the writer William Shakespeare. The name seems to suit the game's main character as, like the Juliet of the play, she too had her romantic relationship take a tragic turn, although not in the same way.
Her family name, Starling, is also the name given to of a small, passerine bird. It might be a reference to Clarice Starling, the FBI agent in Silence of the Lambs.

References
Edit
- Juliet has similar facial features to Rikku from the games Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2. Coincidentally, both are voiced by Tara Strong in English.
- Her boyfriend's severed head Nick is likely a reference to Johnson in another Suda51 game called Shadows of the Damned. Johnson was a severed head who assisted the protagonist on several occasions. He may also be a reference to Susie Sumner from Killer7, who was also a talking severed head who would assist the protagonists.
- Juliet's leapfrog phrase Is a reference to the film Alien.
- Juliet's surname can be viewed as a reference to Silence of the Lambs' protagonist, as both share last names and are called to action during their lives at their academies.
- Prior to completing a button sequence combat oppurtunity Juliet can be heard saying "If it bleeds I can kill it", which directly quotes Arnold Schwarzenegger from the 1987 film Predator.
- In stage 2 "The Stadium" a group of cheerleaders recite a rally "Go, Die, Zombie Scum, Ready Ok Undead We Slay. You All Suck and We Are Great D-D-Decapitate. U-G-L-Y Wake Up Its Time To Die!" They are alluding to a scene from Ridley Scott's Blade Runner (1982).
- After completing a head-stomping button sequence oppurtunity, Juliet may be heard saying "You are already dead!" which is a quote from the character Kenshiro, the protagonist of the anime and manga series Fist of the North Star.
- Juliet chainsaw has the same heart-shape hole near the front as Routier's chainsaw from the Rosario + Vampire Season ll Manga series
Notes/Trivia
Edit
- Juliet's chainsaw bears a pink heart motif.
- Juliet has a notable habit of swearing frequently during her fights, such as when she referred to a zombie as an "undead douche-bag" and later calling another zombie a "fat-ass."
- If the player angles the camera low enough, Juliet will slam her chainsaw down into the ground and cover her backside or front depending on where the player is looking.
- Juliet seems to be the only female in the game that does not wear high heels.
- Juliet is presumably the only in the game who breaks the "fourth wall". (This is a TV and Movie term for a character who talks to the viewing audience as if they can perceive that they are there). This is evidenced when she responded to the fact screen during her boss fight with Zed.
