On one of his many journeys, Donovan comes across a young girl named Anita (アニタ, Anita?). She is an orphan and almost completely emotionless. Shunned by her orphanage as a witch, she exhibits a strange and unexplained power. Anita is threatened by a hideous monster which Donovan dispatches, though he too is feared by Anita's cowardly guardians. As Donovan turns to leave, Anita motions to Donovan without any words. The people explain that Anita has never exhibited any kind of emotion or word since her family was slaughtered by a Darkstalker. Nonchalantly taking his sword Dhylec, he proves to the people that Anita's heart wasn't lost as he slices off the head of Anita's doll, resulting in her expressing anger and responding with a violent psychic force. Donovan easily subdues the attack and tells Anita that anger is the quickest and most easily summoned emotion, and that her anger was proof that she could still heal her own heart. With nowhere else to go, Anita accompanies Donovan to not only find herself, but to help Donovan fight off the evil Darkstalkers as she had the ability to find them as well. Donovan will help Anita to have her revenge and not follow the same troubled path as he has. Donovan feels that Anita is special, and that she has to be protected, and so becomes Anita's guardian and the bane of evil everywhere. He feels the presence of an oncoming evil on the horizon and knows that Anita also feels it. Anita also keeps the headless doll. Anita appears as Dee's last opponent after Jedah.
Her appearance resembles the Anita that appeared in Donovan's ending in Night Warriors: Darkstalkers Revenge since it shows her in her late teens, seven years later. Her name was not displayed though, or revealed during the "versus" screen when Dee is about to fight her.
Anita made her first crossover appearance as a secret playable character in the Japanese port of Marvel Super Heroes (however, since she was just a test character, she was very incomplete and can be considered a cheap character due to her moves). She also appeared as a support character in Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes.
She was originally named Amanda in the Western versions of Night Warriors.
