When performing on stage for “The Phantom of the Opera”, she styles her hair into a waterfall braid and she wears a light amount of makeup to compliment her features.

Ragdoll strongly loves her daughter Juliet Persia . Nevertheless, because of Turkish 's request not to spoil her, she is unable to express it. This results in her acting like a tsundere; she tries her best to maintain her act, although she often fails. Plus, she is dismayed whenever her daughter takes her actions seriously.
However, when the moment presents itself, she shows her love for Juliet by pleading to Chartreux Westia about her daughter's seemingly disrespectful words or defending Juliet's honor when confronting Romio Inuzuka about groping her, leaving Juliet touched by her words. She also shows this love for her husband, as she sympathizes with his past pain of rejection and understands his stance now. She will get jealous if other women approach him.
Unlike most westerners, she doesn't bear any ill will towards Touwans; as seen when she came to the defense of Hasuki Komai from a sketchy individual. Ragdoll even treated her with kindness, giving the girl a tour of the home country and was pleased with her enjoyment of the event. Additionally, she is rather fond of food.

Kishuku Gakkou no Juliet

In his youth, Turkish had long golden hair and somber eyes.

Turkish is shown as emotionless as he held a mysterious aura and nobody could tell what he was thinking. Despite his cold attitude towards his daughter , he genuinely loves her and doesn't want her path being the same as his because of his traumatic past in Dahlia Academy Boarding School when he was exposed for being in relationship with Chiwa Inuzuka , who is a Black Dog .
However, around Chiwa Inuzuka , he seemed to have opened up a little. When their relationship was discovered, he turned cold and seemed like he had lost hope. When they went their separate ways, he was sinking into his guilt as he believed that Chiwa was getting the worst treatments in her country. When he learns that she never regrets them spending times together and has her happiness in the present, his guilt fades away and begins to accept Juliet's and Romio's relationship.
Turkish also had a fear of heights, something he seemed self-conscious of and didn't want to admit it to Chiwa.


Kishuku Gakkou no Juliet

Kiss×Sis

Keita has blue hair, which he wears in a spiky style. His eyes are blue, similar to his hair color but slightly darker. As a former track and field club member he has an athletic body.

Although he is the younger brother of Ako and Riko , he is the most mature of the three siblings. Though he is depicted as also the most childish one when younger. Keita is shown to be athletic more than he is academic, meaning academically he doesn't do as well as Ako but, he does much better than Riko, who has the poorest grades among the three siblings. Keita also mentioned that he is the healthiest person among his friends and that his performance in athletics will help him get admitted into high school.
Though initially annoyed by his older sisters' antics, Keita studied hard to enter same high school as his older sisters due to his love of them and desire to not leave them lonely.
He has strong morals (that have clearly weakened with the constant “attacks” his older sisters have done throughout the series), and he will try to resist the best he can, but he will simply indulge in the moment if pushed too far. He has a great deal of brotherly love toward his older sisters as he not only stands up to his classmates when they start murmuring about their apparent incestuous relationship but also twice to the P.E. teacher.
While at first he initially dislikes himself for becoming attracted to Ako and Riko, he later becomes proactive in his desires. It is later revealed he was in love with his sisters when they were kids and even used all of his money for a prayer so that he could marry both of them. He lost his infatuation with his sister, essentially "growing up", when he found out from his father that polygamy is illegal. Keita is weak to alcohol, and while he becomes livelier when drunk he does not remember anything when he sobers up, but when he gets drunk again his memories come back to him.


Kitchen Princess

Najika has big brown eyes and long, blonde hair that is usually tied in two pigtails. She's of average height with a slender frame.

She loves to cook and eat. Her life dream is to make everyone happy and smile when they eat her desserts. Najika is notably bubbly and a big eater and she is far from elegant, but she, like all main heroines, has a cute charm.


Kiteretsu Daihyakka

In the 1987 special , he wore clothes that look similar to Nobita Nobi with the only difference being the addition of a visor which has the letter "K".
In the anime series he now wears a light blue T-shirt, white underpants and dark blue pants. He also wears green shoes, white socks and a red-yellow themed visor.


Kiteretsu Daihyakka

Korosuke is a samurai robot. His head is made of rubber, and his body is a plastic bucket. His hands are two rubber balls; despite not being able to play rock-paper-scissors with them, some comic panels and animated scenes do depict him with mitten-like fingers. He is approximately 50 centimeters tall and 30 centimeters wide.
Korosuke’s body colors have changed significantly between the publication of the original manga and the release of the 1987 TV special. In earlier color comic media, his head was pink or orange, and his body was red or yellow.

Korosuke as he appears in the 1987 TV special.

In the 1987 special , his head color was changed to light yellow, his body to yellow, and his nose to blue. Additionally, he now carried a samurai sword on his back, which had a yellow tip and a black sheath.
From the anime series onward, his palette was changed yet again: his light yellow head color was kept, but his body is orange, his nose and two circles are now red, and his sword’s sheath is red.


Kiznaiver

Chidori is a girl of average height and appearance with a thin figure and smaller breasts. She has crimson hair to match her eyes and her hair is usually put up into a ponytail with a yellow scrunchie, and pinned back on the right side of her face using a small yellow hair clip.

Chidori was first portrayed as clumsy, emotional, and seemingly nosy at times. She seems to sincerely care about all of the other Kiznaivers, especially Katsuhira Agata (Chidori's childhood friend) and tries to cheer them up when they're upset. She got embarrassed rather easily, and had been told by Tsuguhito Yuta that she was "too heavy" when it comes to her emotions. If too embarrassed or irritated, she would hit the person who caused those feelings.
Chidori was called "Two-Goody Shoes" by Noriko Sonozaki . She has a tendency to take care of others, as seen when she cooks meals for Katsuhira and Hajime Tenga , and also when she tries to solve Katushira's problems for him by talking to the teachers about his being bullied and demanding that the bullies return his money. She is very defensive of her friends, especially Katsuhira because she knows he won't defend himself out of apathy.
Chidori fell in love with Katsuhira during their childhood and very much wished for him to return to his original kind and funny personality. She was very upset when she realized that he would not return her feelings, but also understood that she could not make him do so and that continuing to try would be selfish of her.


Kiznaiver

Gomorin has a cream white body with a nest full of eggs on their heads and cartoon-like scribbled on eyes that are black and red. They have red arms and tail along with skinny purple legs along with red around their bodies that make it look it's tied with a rope. They have a star shape on their face, and are very strange creatures.

Generally obedient but it differs from person to person.


Kiznaiver

Tenga has hazel eyes and spiky pink hair. He is very tall and muscular for his age, which helps reinforce his image and reputation. His skin is slightly tanned and there is a darkened lightning-bolt shaped marking on his hairline, which is possibly a scar. He wears lime green bottom-rimmed eyeglasses, and his eyes have a defined, yet gentle, down-turned shape. Whenever he appears in his school uniform, the fact that he is wearing a bright yellow t-shirt with a logo of a black bear on the chest instead of a white collared shirt, along with sporting shiny red and white dress shoes, sticks out like a sore thumb.
His street style is equally loud and adventurous, but it is noticeably more practical. He is often seen donning tank tops or any shirt that shows off his muscles, along with accessories and, at times, loud flowery or geometric patterns paired with bright colors, typically worn with flip-flops for the summer. Overall, he seems to wear whatever he wishes to as long as it's comfortable, and doesn't seem to adhere to any particular style. His signature accessory is a white beaded bracelet with two pale yellow beads surrounding a larger blue bead in the center.
He is noticeably taller than most characters in the series, appearing to stand at around 185 cm (about 6 feet). He is seen as intimidating and scary by many due to his reputation, but is described in the novel as a "handsome young man" by Katsuhira Agata . [1]

Of the Seven Deadly Sins of Modern-Day Japan, Tenga's sin is that of the "Musclehead Thug." However, while he is known among his peers as an unpredictable and intimidating delinquent, his true personality holds a deep-seated desire to help others.
In the proper spirit of the "Musclehead," Tenga is an incredibly energetic and physically strong person who many times acts on a whim in order to push through and keep events moving along. In spite of his image, however, he in many situations can display some of the highest practical intelligence and observational skills among the seven Kiznaivers, easily able to glean the root of a problem without much effort.
Although his nature is typically thoughtful and concerned for others, when he is faced with strong negative emotions such as jealousy, Tenga is capable of displaying liberal amounts of selfishness to the point of extreme senseless violence. Still, even in such rare cases, he eventually comes to terms deep down that his actions were misguided.
Tenga was shown to be quite perverse, as exhibited when he attempts to fondle Nico Niiyama 's "boobies" as she explained the concept of the Sleep Fairy , earning a big slap from her that everyone connected through the system was forced to endure. His nature was also suggested when he initially talked of "violating" Noriko Sonozaki every time she annoyed him.


Kiznaiver

Honoka is a bespectacled character who has a slim figure. She has dirty blonde hair which she wears in a side braid. She is usually seen wearing her uniform with black pantyhose and brown shoes, but she uses a blue-grey sleeveless sweater instead of the usual black vest. She appears to be around 172 cm (5'8").


Kiznaiver

Katsuhira is a tall, slim boy with droopy, grey eyes. He often has an emotionless expression on his face. He had brown hair as a child, however, the majority of his hair turned white in the aftermath of the Kizuna Experiment. He is usually seen wearing his school uniform which consists of a white shirt with black accents on the cuffs and collar as well as a blue tie with a black cross. He appears to be around 176 cm.

Katsuhira is rather indifferent in all situations, whether he feels pain or joy. He is shown to be emotionless and is also shown to be oblivious to the feelings of other people, despite wanting to build bonds. Due to his lack of interest in himself and others around him, he has trouble forming connections, with the exception of Chidori.
However, it seems like his lack of interest started in grade school, as Chidori's love confession stated that she wishes he would go back to his fun and caring self.
Katsuhira, despite having little emotion, does care for those around him, even to the point where he is willing to risk his own safety for the other Kiznaivers, including jumping off a bridge early in the series to prevent Tenga from doing the same thing. His mood barely fluctuates, and he pays little attention to other people. He is constantly bullied, but doesn't feel the pain.
In episode 10, Katsuhira is shown to be a shy yet energetic boy before the first Kizuna experiment. In that same episode, it is also revealed that once he was permanently connected to Sonozaki, most of his pain and emotions went to her, thus leaving his personality diluted, and his attitude towards others indifferent.
However, throughout the series, he gradually returns back to the same kind, thoughtful and sociable boy he was back then. He is also very forgiving, as seen when he holds no grudges towards others despite what they put him through, especially Sonozaki and Tenga as well as his bullies.
While technically a disability, Katsuhira does not feel pain. This means when the other Kiznaivers are affected by someone else's or their own pain, Katsuhira is not inhibited at all. Despite this, he still bleeds and takes damage when his own body is injured. It is later shown that most of his pains goes to Sonozaki due to their permanent Kizna bond.


Kiznaiver

Yamada has long wavy green hair that is slicked back except for two strands that lie down near his neck. He wears a sleeping mask on top of his head along with a wine red track suit, a black shirt, and a pair of crocs. He appears to be 180 cm.

Kazunao takes no interest in the personal lives of his students and is very apathetic. He has no motivation to work hard and only shows interest in Bishoujo style games and cheap food. He also enjoys teasing his students. As shown in episode 5, he caught Honoka Maki and Tsuguhito Yuta by recording them on his Smartphone. He was likely aware of their conversation based on how long his phone had been recording. And in episode 6, he left a message for the kids asking them to clean up the mess they had left behind in camp. He is shown to not care too much about his student's health, as he watches the Kiznaivers in episode 9 break down emotionally, but he does nothing to stop this and Mutsumi Urushibara describes this as 'bad taste'.


Kiznaiver

A very small old man with short gray balding hair and wrinkles on his face. He wears glasses and has is usually seen wearing either a grey suit, or a yellow polo shirt and brown pants with a belt and white golf glove for when he plays golf.

The mayor is very mysterious at first, but he is the simple and hard-working mayor of Sugomori City. He is very concerned and passionate about the "Smiley-Happy Town For Everyone," Sugomori. Similarly to Urushibara , he adores Noriko as a daughter and is constantly concerned for her safety and wellbeing. While he cares about people in the city achieving harmony just as much as Noriko does, he views Noriko's obsession over the Kizuna Experiment as a bit extreme as it has the potential of damaging the government's public reputation.


Kiznaiver

Mutsumi has jaw-length black hair that is swept to the right, blue eyes and a beauty mark under her left eye as shown in the beginning of Episode 2.
She usually wears a lab coat and dark black waist-high pants with a white blouse.

Initially, Mutsumi comes off as cold, somewhat sarcastic, and even frightening, such as when she pulls out a gun in front of two students in an arcade. In later episodes, she is shown to have caring and motherly qualities, such as in episode 9 when she becomes clearly distressed about the effects of the experiment on the Kiznaivers.


Kiznaiver

Noriko is an outstandingly beautiful girl. She has pale skin, silver eyes and long, light blue hair, with a braid along the crown.
She wears her school uniform, but it is different from the other girls. It consists of a streamline blazer and skirt accented with blue. Both her petticoat and the long-sleeved blouse she wears under her blazer appear to have ruffles. She wears common black school shoes and thigh-high white socks. In place of what appears to be her school's standard necktie is a pale blue bow. She wears a diamond imprint around her neck, much like a choker necklace. She appears to be about 165 cm. However, she is mostly seen wearing her uniform shoes, which would add about three centimeters to her height.
It is shown at the end of episode 8 and throughout episode 9, that Noriko has a Kiznaiver scar on the back of her neck, which had previously been covered up by a choker.

For the most part, Noriko displays very little emotion. Her words are hard and firm towards the Kiznaivers, believing that they can achieve world peace, but she fails to show common traits of humanity herself.
Her beautiful intimidating appearance and her rare signs of emotions are similar to Katsuhira, but during Katsuhira's childhood flashbacks, it is shown that Noriko did smile a lot back when she was a child.
More than anything, the Kiznaiver experiment seems to be her one and only goal. She stated to Mutsumi Urushibara that she wouldn't let the experiment fail no matter what, and speaks quite harshly towards the Mayor when he explains that they are losing their funding. Also, she doesn't seem to know as much about the Kiznaivers as she had previously implied, admitting that she named the Kiznaivers after the Seven Deadly Sins, but none of them actually live up to their given name.
Interestingly, Noriko had told Katsuhira, before he became a Kiznaiver, that everyone in the world wants to connect with someone else. Noriko herself seems to be part of this philosophy, as she wants to find herself within Katsuhira. She possesses a little bit of curiosity about Katsuhira's feelings, as seen in episode 9 when she asks him if he likes her and how long he thinks about her each day.
However, beyond this, true displays of emotion from Noriko have yet to be seen. In episode 10, it is revealed that her lack of emotions is because of a nullifying medicine that she takes regularly to lessen the pain from all nineteen test subjects that she inadvertently endures from the first Kiznaiver experiment.


Kiznaiver

Ruru was a rather thin girl. She had mauve purple hair that was poofed out around her face with bangs swooped above her slightly thick eyebrows and medium brown eyes. She had freckles on her cheeks and a wide smile on her face very often.

According to her parents, Ruru was usually shy around other people. When she met Honoka she opened herself up and revealed that she has a very excitable and outgoing side. When showing her feelings towards Honoka, she even comes off as very outgoing and unafraid, highly contradicting to what her parents may have thought she acted like. Even when Honoka turned her down and forced her to do the rest of the manga by herself, she kept her determined and cheery attitude until her end.


Kiznaiver

Yuta is a tall young man with short teal hair and crooked bangs. His resting face seems somewhat sly and deviant. He wears a school uniform like Katsuhira Agata does. He could be described with the trope of " bishounen ". He appears to be around 178 cm.

A bit of an opportunist and a lady's man in the classroom, he is revealed to be intensely ashamed of his immense chubbiness back in his grade school years, and goes through great lengths to conceal this fact. He places great emphasis on his own appearance and prefers the company of similarly attractive people, acknowledging these facts even, yet at the same time is shown in several instances to be able to look past people's superficial features; as a result of this, he can be surprisingly intuitive at times. Yuta speaks his mind with a candid tongue (such as when he told Honoka Maki that she had a "terrible personality"), and possesses a kind heart underneath the rest of his personality.


Kiznaiver

Hisomu is a naturally handsome, yet unkempt, teenager with mid-length, choppy purple taupe hair that has grey highlights, golden olive eyes, he has multiple piercings on both ears and a single labret piercing beneath his lower lip and he is perpetually seen with bandages covering his neck and his wrists.
His clothes always look quite worn down and tattered, and are invariably paired with flip flops. He appears to stand around 180 cm (5 feet, 10 inches) tall.
Several characters point out that Hisomu is a "natural hot guy" (in constrast with Tsuguhito Yuta , who had to work hard to achieve and maintain his current appearance). Despite his ratty look and lack of concern for personal care, he is often checked out when he is walking in the street, or on the rare occasions that he comes to class.

Hisomu was portrayed as an eccentric masochist throughout the entire series. As a masochist, he experienced arousal when experiencing, or even thinking about pain, and typically expressed this arousal quite vocally and without shame. This caused much chagrin among the kiznaivers, especially Yuta who was deeply peeved and put off by the unsuitable behavior. On top of that it is very ironic, since Hisomu was wired to enjoy an experiment that most people would find difficult to endure.
There is subtle implication that he was suicidal, though like the rest of his traits, he likely did not view it as a problem to concern himself with.
When he was in the same vicinity as Nico Niiyama he would occasionally act childish, as their respective outlandish personalities seemed to amplify each other's. He states to Hajime Tenga that he cannot swim and that he doesn't wish to drown, which contrasts his usual all-inclusive attitude towards pain and suggests that drowning is one of the few forms of pain he doesn't wish to endure. It is unclear whether he has a trauma related to this or anything else, because he seems to have decidedly pushed everything except pain out of his mind.
Aside from this, not much is known about him in general, and he is considered an enigma by everyone, even the former Kizna Committee members who watched his every move. Although he seems benign and spends most of his time smiling innocently, he is capable at all times of being blunt or ruthless with his words, which unnerves the other kiznaivers of his group.


Kizumonogatari

Since Black Hanekawa is simply the sawarineko assuming control of Tsubasa's body, she mostly acquires Tsubasa's physical traits: long hair, a voluptuous figure and a pair of plump breasts. However, the sawarineko changes some aspects of Tsubasa's appearance, changing her hair color to a silvery white, her eyes into a golden hue with slit pupils, a pair of cat ears, and a paler complexion.
Black Hanekawa appears to prefer being scantily clothed, and is often seen wearing the underwear Tsubasa wore before the sawarineko took over.

Unlike Tsubasa, who is soft-spoken and has a reserved personality, Black Hanekawa possesses a completely different personality. She is playful and talkative, her words often laced with the sounds a cat often makes (particularly "nya "), and is sharp-tongued and blunt when talking to someone. However, she also has a more brutal side which, when combined with her superhuman strength and her distracting choice of clothing, makes her a rather frustrating and difficult opponent to face. She is also known to be a manipulative mind, faking death to attract its next victim. This manipulative character was further strengthened by Tsubasa's knowledge, which she was able to gain access to.
Surprisingly, the sawarineko which takes over Tsubasa's body has developed a degree of responsibility over Tsubasa, and has revealed that she "is inclined to help her" after understanding Tsubasa's problems at home. This implies a strong bond between Tsubasa, who was revealed to actually permit the sawarineko possessing her body, and the sawarineko , who has gained a vast amount of knowledge due to taking over Tsubasa's body, something which is completely unheard of when it comes to encounters with a sawarineko , which is known for its ruthlessness to its victims.


Kizumonogatari

Kaiki is a tall middle aged and pale man with a very gloomy and dark appearance. He is often seen wearing a funeral suit with a red club over the knot of his rather loose necktie. He has an unsmiling face with eyes that either appear indifferent or piercing. His hair is worn back with two bangs hanging down and trying to reach the bridge of his nose. In Koimonogatari he is shown having a cold shower to make his skin deathly blue-pale.
In most of Koimonogatari , he wears a typical trench coat with his hair down short and shaggy.
In Hanamonogatari , he goes back to his typical hair, but this time with a neatly trimmed goatee-beard combo and glasses.

Designs for Nisemonogatari Designs for Koimonogatari Designs for Hanamonogatari

Kaiki has a very gloomy personality and subscribes to the view that there is nothing in the world that is inherently true. The only absolute in life for him is money, as it is replaceable and can replace any thing. A schemer at heart, Kaiki has an opaque mind to outsiders. He is fluent in the arts of lying and subterfuge, so his reasoning behind what he says is constantly blurred. He explains his name as "Kai" like a mound of clam shells, and "Ki" like a dead tree.
Kaiki is an individual who prides himself in having no pride. He openly admits to being a conman and an impostor amongst other things. But this is to his advantage as someone who deceives with wordplay extremely well. His interactions with others are very fluid, and he is willing to give and take in order to maximize the outcome, or cut his losses, in his favor.
In Koimonogatari , much more of his character is revealed, especially his own thought process. He keeps his promises despite his lying nature, and has an unexpected system of morals that he adheres to - but only if motivated to do so because he must personally benefit from the situation. Kaiki seems to take warnings or "pieces of advice" as challenges, such as when Gaen and an unknown messenger (later revealed to be Senjougahara) had told him to "pull out" of his current job. Senjougahara explained to him afterwards that she had purposefully did it to motivate him. Kaiki's narration throughout the arc reveals he has a more realistic perspective than the other characters, being very observant about the strangeness of situations around himself.
Despite the fact that he is very scheming, he seems to miss obvious conclusions. When he found the letter in his hotel room, he assumed that some third party (that wasn't Gaen or Senjougahara) had found a way to get in, but it was pointed out by Senjougahara that it could be as simple as throwing the envelope under the door. When trying to deceive Nadeko, he came up with the simple scheme of earning her trust so he can tell her that Araragi and co. were in a traffic accident so that she wouldn't kill them. It is worth mentioning that Kaiki already knew Araragi is almost immortal; and Nadeko had beaten him within an inch of his life many times within a short period, so she would have some idea of how much punishment his body can actually take, making something like a traffic accident seem less than lethal. During a discussion with Hanekawa, she described Nadeko as "snubbing everyone out", never letting others get close to her. Kaiki didn't change his plan despite knowing that she had never trusted others, and subsequently failed at deceiving her.


Kizumonogatari

Dramaturgy appears as a giant man with a height over two meters. His common expression depicts him with a very stern, serious look. He can transform his arms into giant wavy-shaped blades which he uses in combat. His ears are pointed, a common characteristic of vampires. In order to hold down his messy hair, he wears a headband. His eyebrows make a unique "Y" shape that nearly touch his sideburns.

Dramaturgy has a very calm personality despite his appearance. He even invited Koyomi to become one of his brethren instead of fighting him.


Kizumonogatari

Episode has blonde hair of medium length and not too neatly combed, as well as have sanpaku eyes. Art in the manga adaptation depicts him with white hair. He wears a white uniform and wields a giant cross as a weapon.
Despite his appearance, he claims to be six. He's likely gotten an abnormal maturity growth from his parent vampire, which led him to look like a teenager despite being a six year old child.
Designs for Nekomonogatari White Designs for Kizumonogatari

Episode is aggressive and arrogant, and as a half-vampire he is openly disgusted by vampires and references to his other prey as: "those who think if they have the powers of mosquitoes, then they are invincible". Shinobu Oshino states half-vampires do not belong anywhere, and consequently hate both humans and vampires. His catchphrase seems to be: "That's hilarious." In the English translation of Kizumonogatari , he says "Gotta love it."


Kizumonogatari

Koyomi Araragi describes him as a standard man with hedgehog hair. He always keeps one eye closed and is seen wearing a priest robe with a red scarf around his neck. He does not have any weapon.
Despite being the only vampire hunter out of the three that is not a vampire himself, he has pointy, elf-like ears, a characteristic typically found in vampires and other humanoid oddities like Yotsugi Ononoki .

Guillotine Cutter denies and eliminates the existence of oddities . Koyomi describes him as a calm but dangerous person. While the only of the three vampire hunters that is not a vampire himself, Guillotine Cutter is not an average human as he was able to take both of Kiss-shot's arms.
He refers to himself as God and will stop at nothing to accomplish his goals.


Kizumonogatari

Hitagi is a beautiful girl with long purple hair (dark brown in light novel artwork), blue eyes and a glamorous figure, although she is also considered a "frail" girl due to her lack of participation in school activities.
She wears the Naoetsu Private High School uniform the usual way while wearing black thigh-highs and can be seen wearing dresses or similar clothing that cover up to her knees when outside of school.
In later events, she has the sleeves of her uniform rolled up and pinned in place, turning her uniform into a sleeveless blouse and has short hair.

Hitagi possesses a sharp tongue and can be quite blunt when speaking to others and while doing so she keeps a straight face making her seem quite frightening. This trait of hers makes interacting with her a challenging task, if not impossible, and is something that Araragi discovers first-hand. In spite of this, she is sincere in everything that she says.
She calls herself a tsundere (though she is more of a kuudere) and has some understanding of otaku culture, as she once mentions how "moe" Meme's name was to Araragi. She claims that due to her "high strung" nature she is generally a light sleeper. She also seems to have an aversion to kids. She used to have a habit of threatening others, especially Araragi, by using stationary supplies as weapons when feeling endangered or jealous, although grew out of it later on in the series.
After the events in Tsukihi Phoenix , she overcame all of her trauma and finally became a completely normal and cheerful girl, chuckling at small things although her sharp tongue is still present, only toned down. Hitagi further appears to be knowledgeable about astronomy, as seen during her dates with Araragi.


Kizumonogatari

The appearance of Hitagi's father is often depicted as partially obscured, preventing his face from being fully shown. What is known is that he is a middle-aged man with a raspy voice and short gray hair smoothly slicked back. Because of his job as a salaryman, he is dressed in a black business suit.

Despite being taciturn, Hitagi's father is kind-hearted and his affection for Hitagi as a daughter motivates him to continue working in the absence of her mother. Despite this, he trusts Koyomi in making sure that Hitagi is safe as he is unable to spend time with her often.


Kizumonogatari

Izuko is a middle-aged woman with wavy long brown hair and orange eyes. Her outfit is reminiscent of hip hop fashion with a bright color scheme, consisting of a loose light green shirt over a black sweatshirt, loose maroon pants and running shoes. She wears a white baseball cap with a light green rim, and among her accessories include a smiley necklace and a pair of orange headphones hanging on her neck.
For some reason, where ever Gaen appears, a swirl of rainbow clouds can be seen in the background.

Designs for Nekomonogatari White

Despite her looks, Izuko is actually a very knowledgeable person when it comes to the supernatural. She also apparently knows some facts about Koyomi Araragi and Tsubasa Hanekawa and is updated in current events. In fact, she boasts about her wealth of knowledge frequently, to the point of adapting the catchphrase, "There is nothing that I don't know. I know everything," which is a stark contrast to Tsubasa's catchphrase.
Although the credibility of her claims over "knowing everything" may be debatable, it can be argued that she is good in taking advantage of what she knows and what other people do not know, allowing her to break down a person's confidence, like Tsubasa's confidence in her knowledge, for example.


Kizumonogatari

Despite being younger, Karen is taller than Koyomi — a fact that often dismays him — and is the tallest of the three siblings at 170cm (5'7"). Karen ties her black hair into a ponytail on the right side of her head and uses a similar hair accessory as her sister (both their accessories have a sunny side-up egg design). She also has dark gray irises like her siblings.
Reflecting her tomboyish lifestyle and energetic personality, Karen's outfit consists of a yellow hoodie and pants, a black tank top, red socks and white running shoes.
Designs for Nisemonogatari Designs for Zoku Owarimonogatari

Befitting her name, Karen is a hot-blooded girl who acts as if she is a superhero who has the duty of protecting others from danger. When she was in elementary school some of Koyomi's thoughtless words nearly drove her to commit suicide. It was then that she started becoming an ally of justice. She states that it was Koyomi who created the "hatred of evil in her heart". She likes to imitate characters from various tokusatsu live action series like Dekaranger . Fortunately, she manages to pull it off due to her flexibility and quick reflexes, which are a product of her constant exercise and training, which involves practicing karate and capoeira, among other martial arts.
Her personality often collides with Koyomi's more laid back personality more recently, especially since Koyomi has developed a certain degree of anxiety over his sisters' safety due to his experiences with the supernatural. In fact, he has called Karen's habit of acting like a superhero alongside her sister a "travesty". Along with her sister, Karen does not believe in the supernatural. At times, she acts like a bit of an air-head.


Kizumonogatari

In the adaptations that depict him, Koyomi is shown to be a young man with black hair, grey eyes, and a medium complexion. His hair commonly covers his left eye, though it covers his right in the Kizumonogatari films. After Koyomi Vamp , he decides he should grow out his hair more to hide the bite marks on his neck. While it doesn't always seem entirely consistent, his hair does generally seem to get longer over the course of the chronological order in the anime adaptation, with Bakemonogatari featuring relatively short hair, Tsukimonogatari with slightly longer hair, and Shinobumonogatari with long hair.
If not wearing his school uniform, he dresses casually, often clad in a hoodie and jeans. As noted by his sisters, his fashion sense is far from admirable. A feature unique to Koyomi and his sisters is a very expressive ahoge, which often changes shape to mirror his emotions. Earlier concept art by VOFAN did not originally have this feature.
He's quite physically fit as a result of becoming a vampire, though it's normally only noticeable when he doesn't wear a shirt. Especially in the novels, he's considered to be somewhat short. Hitagi is slightly taller than him, something novel Koyomi stated he was worried people would see in the anime adaptation, though they're often depicted as having about the same height. He's still a bit taller than Tsubasa . He's notably shorter than his little sister Karen , though she's considerably tall for her age.

Koyomi is a laid-back individual. Prior to his experience during his last spring break where he met Tsubasa Hanekawa , he was rather asocial in high school, claiming that having friends would "lower his integrity as a human," due to a negative experience during his first year. This ideology seems to have multiple implications, as his explanations seem to change slightly in different instances. In Koyomi Vamp , he describes it as an idea that being close to others could ultimately harm him. If his friends got hurt, he would also be hurt. It gives a person more weak points. In Ougi Formula, which describes the scenario that birthed this expression, explains it in a slightly different way. Instead, it shows how he found disturbance in the fact that a "truth" can be made just by numbers. Something doesn't have to actually be true, but if a majority of people say it is, it's treated as such. He has his own sense of what's right, and doesn't want to be a part of the "majority rule" in deciding justice. In either instance, both explanations support isolation and the idea that he would be stronger as a person if he was alone.
His experience with Hanekawa caused him to open up and be more open to making friends. He's a poor academic student, close to failing every class except math. At home, Koyomi is the only person who thinks that his family relationship is bad, while his younger sisters, Karen Araragi and Tsukihi Araragi , believe differently.
It is revealed through conversations that he's quite knowledgeable on anime as noted by Nadeko Sengoku , who appears to be a bit of a closet otaku. Other characters, Mayoi Hachikuji and Hitagi Senjougahara especially, seem to speculate that Koyomi is a lolicon .
Koyomi has a desire to help those around him and believes strongly in taking responsibility for personal matters that he could have helped despite not being any of his business. This desire causes him to behave recklessly or abuse his regeneration powers when faced with dangerous situations. Koyomi's desire to help is often portrayed as his own selfish desire and seen by those around him as being too soft towards other people.


Kizumonogatari

Mayoi is a young girl with long black hair and dark red eyes. Her hair is tied into pigtails and she wears a white headband with a white swirl on each end. Her outfit resembles an elementary school uniform: a white blouse with two straps connected to a dark blue skirt; white socks; and pink shoes.
One distinguishing part of Mayoi's overall look is the large pink backpack she always carries on her back. It is an unusual piece of baggage which looks like a large chick, containing different things such as large paw and several small plush dolls. Araragi once noted that Mayoi looks different if she takes off the backpack, as if a snail was turned into a slug.

Designs for Bakemonogatari Designs for Zoku Owarimonogatari

Befitting her age, Mayoi is cheerful, energetic and inquisitive. She makes a lot of spelling mistakes and has a habit of mispronouncing Koyomi's family name. In the end, it is revealed that she purposely mispronouncing it. On the other hand, she does not easily trust strangers, and will even fight back against them if they become too nosy. This cold nature towards strangers was later revealed to be intentional, as she was trying to discourage people from following her and becoming lost. She also shows a timid side around people whom she finds frightening (e.g. Hitagi, who admitted her dislike for younger girls). Although, she overcame her timidness after becoming a god, being able to casually greet and talk to the death-prepared, death-inevitable, death-certain vampire, Deathtopia Virtuoso Suicidemaster who was even tempted to kill and devour her, prompting the vampire to think “this girl didn’t even fear gods—though she herself was a god”.
On the other hand, despite her 11-year-old appearance, Mayoi frequently shows moments of maturity, especially when listening to Koyomi's problems and dealing with things that are difficult for people of her age.


Kizumonogatari

Meme is a man with a lanky physique, short hair dyed blond and yellow eyes. He keeps his hair in an unruly fashion (although he sweeps it back when he performs Shinto ceremonies) and has a pair of sideburns and a goatee. His outfit consists of a pink aloha shirt left unbuttoned, a pair of dark-colored cargo shorts and black sandals that resemble the Japanese geta . Meme's notable accessories include an earring on his right ear and a necklace, both having an inverted cross on them.
Meme's overall looks give off an eccentric feel to people he interacts with, and even Koyomi calls him a "psychedelic aloha guy" because of this.
Meme is often seen with a cigarette in his mouth, although it is never lit.

Designs for Bakemonogatari Designs for Kizumonogatari

Meme's personality is quite laid-back and can be somewhat eccentric. Along with his unusual fashion sense, his current residence gives off the feeling that he is not a normal guy like most people.
As someone who is involved with the paranormal, he prefers to keep himself from directly meddling with affairs involving oddities, though he has the strength to do so if need be. He generally prefers to help out, but only if the person themselves is willing to exert effort towards returning to normal. However, putting aside his financial priorities, he can be well-trusted in supernatural affairs, with his knowledge that is useful in handling cases related to oddities.


Kizumonogatari

In the anime adaptation, Meniko has blue eyes, slightly curled violet blueish hair of medium length and glasses. Slightly small in stature, she stands a bit shorter than Koyomi.

Design for Shinobumonogatari

Meniko is an eccentric mathematics student majoring in cryptography.  She is another one of the few friends of Koyomi's with no known attachment to oddities . Koyomi describes her as "a bit of an oddball, though not as odd as him."
She often refers to him as "Araragi-chan" and greets him with a Spanish hello: " Hola ." She has trouble breaking from her schedule, so she'll regularly attend class by herself even if it was canceled. This habit of hers is what lead to her meeting Koyomi for the first time.


Kizumonogatari

Nadeko is a young girl with dark brown hair (black in the novels) and chocolate brown eyes. She is 153 cm(5'0") and her weight is around 38 kg. During the times when she was still cursed by the jagirinawa , her outfit consisted of a waist pouch, an orange newsboy cap , a pink blouse, an orange jacket and a pair of baggy denims — all of which were designed to hide the scars that covered her body. She also always casts her eyes downward, with long fringes covering her eyes. It can be assumed that her newsboy cap represents the "snake" that cursed her, as its shape resembles a snake's head.
She later changes her to a more comfortable set of clothes after being relieved of the curse, and she shows a preference to wearing skirts.
Later in the series, she cuts her hair short.

Designs for Bakemonogatari Designs for Otorimonogatari Designs for Owarimonogatari 2 Nisioisin is quoted as saying "She is an uglier character than we've ever had" Designs for Zoku Owarimonogatari

Nadeko has a shy personality, and can be easily amused. She's quite protective of her hair (particularly her forelocks) thinking that it's her place to guard more than her panties. She often looks at the floor during conversations with anyone. She commonly refers to herself in the first person, often considered a child-like tendency in Japanese. In combination with this, she also uses a lower case "i" as her first person pronoun in the English localization to emphasize her childish way of speaking.
Nadeko hates the feeling of direct physical contact with other people, specifically the feeling of transmitting heat, even from her own parents.
She develops a dependence towards Koyomi (whom she calls "Koyomi-onii-chan") which slowly intensified as the events relating to the snake curse puts a pressure on her.


Kizumonogatari

Ougi has short black hair, large black irises, and pale white skin. Their most common outfit is a female uniform with long sleeves that hide their hands constantly. Because their irises are drawn black, their pupils are never seen. Ougi can be seen wearing black gloves when their hands are showing.
In Hanamonogatari , Ougi switches to a male school uniform.
It's worth noting that while light novel artwork sometimes depicts Ougi in different clothing such as a black dress, they have only ever been seen wearing school uniforms in the anime adaptation.

Designs for Kabukimonogatari Designs for Hanamonogatari Designs for Zoku Owarimonogatari

Ougi often comes off as very mysterious, typically looming in the background of most events and only appearing near the beginning, end, or climax of major story arcs. They're rarely ever not smiling and always talk in a somewhat condescending tone.
Especially upon first meeting him, Ougi seems to take an obsessive interest in helping Koyomi Araragi , much to his friends' suspicion. In the first volume of Owarimonogatari, Koyomi claims that Ougi somehow causes him to blurt out things without hesitation. He's also commented on them knowing things he's never told them.
Ougi claims to have a job of "punishing liars," and the execution of this claim implies it is connected to oddites .
As a "conventional monster," Ougi is an entity which exists solely on lying about its identity. Because they sprung from the subconscious guilt of Koyomi Araragi, their personality is designed to "punish" him with criticism, condescension, and various other personal attacks. Ougi has displayed a particular desire to maintain the illusion that they are the apparition-killing "Darkness," which lends credence to their claim that they "punish liars." Up until the conclusion of "Ougi Dark," Ougi's motivation is to sabotage and destroy the hypocritical aspects of Koyomi Araragi's personality, allowing his existence to become more "right."


Kizumonogatari

Rouka is a girl of high-school age, with light brown hair and eyes. Her wavy hair is left unkempt, flows to her shoulders, and has a pair of locks that curl inwards from the back of her head, resembling a devil's horns.

Designs for Hanamonogatari

Because of her background, Rouka develops an obsession with misfortune, even at a young age. As a grade school pupil, she often puts herself in a pedestal by comparing her talent with the misfortune of others. However, after her life-changing injury, this eventually motivates her to collect the misfortunes of other people, justifying it as a way to ascertain that other people are more unfortunate than her. [1]


Kizumonogatari

Mr. Sasayabu bears the appearance of a typical school teacher. He wears a brown blazer over a white dress shirt, as well as brown slacks, black shoes and a bolo tie. He usually holds a small black folder, possibly to hold important documents related to his occupation.
Interestingly, while character designs depict Sasayabu's face, his full face is never shown in the anime adaptation.

Soft-spoken and somewhat kind-hearted, Mr. Sasayabu tends to worry about his class, and especially its representative Nadeko. He often spends his time asking Nadeko about the affairs of the class for this reason. Ironically, his tendency to rely too much on Nadeko implies that he does not want to deal with the problems of Class 2-2 directly.


Kizumonogatari

While most usually shown in a full set of samurai armor that covers his entire body, his true appearance underneath depicts a pale skin man with pointy elf-like ears and long, black hair. He wears a formal, black suit.
Like his former master, he seems to take the form of different ages depending on how much he has revived. In Shinobu Mail , he takes the form of a small child when he first meets Koyomi Araragi outside his samurai armor.

Seishirou was originally a Japanese warrior known for his ability to kill oddities by using the swords Kokorowatari and Yumewatari . During his travels, he met Kiss-shot Acerola-orion Heart-under-blade, who assumed the role of the local god in a village in Japan, and began visiting her on occasion, although Seishirou did not show any aggression towards the vampire. Kiss-shot's presence soon took the attention of the entity later identified as Kurayami , and despite their combined efforts to stave off the effects of the Kurayami in the village, the entity continued its rampage, consuming the inhabitants of the village and Seishirou in the process.
Kiss-shot managed to escape with Seishirou's disembodied hand, which was all that remained of the warrior, and used this to revive him as a vampire, turning him into the first minion of the King of Oddities. This fate was gravely rejected by Seishirou, and he leapt into the sunlight soon after his revival, cursing Kiss-shot as well as saying her name for the first time as he turned to ash. Among the things that he left behind after his suicide was a replica of the Kokorowatari made from his own flesh, which remained in Kiss-shot's possession.
He was reincarnated fifteen years prior to the beginning of the series, four-hundred years after his first suicide attempt.


Kizumonogatari

Higasa is a teenage girl with short, black hair and purple eyes. She wears the standard Naoetsu Private High School female uniform.

She appears to be very blunt as she calls Suruga an idiot for having bad grades much to her shock.


Kizumonogatari

Shinobu is a young female with yellow eyes, pointy ears, sharp fangs, and very long blond hair which curls outward at the end. During the course of the series, she takes on several changes in appearance depending on how much of her vampire powers she possesses. Through most of the series, she assumes a younger form as an eight year old. She wears a loose white dress and a pair of sandals, with an aviator hat as an accessory in Bakemonogatari . Later on in the series, her eight-year old form occasionally wears dresses of other colors.
As demonstrated in Nisemonogatari , she can suck blood to become older; she appears as a girl in her adolescent years, tying her hair into a ponytail and wearing a black camisole inside a purple jacket, a black skirt and black hosiery. In Kizumonogatari , obtaining her stolen body parts causes her to age, along with gradually transforming her clothes into an appearance similar to her adult form. Her true form as Kiss-Shot depicts a woman in her late twenties wearing an old red and black dress.
The Bakemonogatari manga adaptation has Kiss-shot's appearance and clothes occasionally change in their designs throughout the story due to the manga's art style. The seventeen-year old form of Kiss-shot has two long ponytails and wears a black trenchcoat-like uniform. Her true adult form wears a revealing long black dress with bat ornaments. When Kiss-shot is fighting Koyomi in the Kizumonogatari arc of the manga, her dress transforms into black demonic armor with spikes and parts of her hair become long horns, later implied to be her vampire combat attire. A flashback of Kiss-shot from hundreds of years ago in the manga portrayed her once having much shorter hair, wearing a simple old-styled dark dress with a corset. It is unknown if the anime or light novel versions of Kiss-shot are able to have these appearances in her different forms.

After losing most of her vampire powers, Shinobu falls into a long period of stupor. She is frequently seen in Oshino's place with her hands tucking her knees in, her face always in an emotionless state. She often spends most of the day in one spot, doing mostly nothing with a bitter expression. Shinobu also does not talk to anyone, but she is familiar with Koyomi Araragi and Meme Oshino , and would follow requests from either of them.
Later she reverts back to her brighter personality after "reconciling" with Koyomi. She is rather talkative, and often asserts her superiority through her archaic speech. She mostly plays with Koyomi's tendency to act as the follower between the two. Sometime after Koyomi Vamp , she appears to find a liking to Mister Donuts and they become her obsession. She refers to herself using "washi" (ワシ), which is often used in fictional settings to represent characters of old age.
Shinobu holds affection for Koyomi stemming from him saving her in Koyomi Vamp. She is seen to show jealousy if he spends too much time around other girls or gets too close to those she does not like, notably Nadeko Sengoku. She is shown to be touched by Koyomi being willing to live and die with her, but as called out by Suruga Kanbaru, is initially unwilling to openly return the sentiment until months later in Ougi Dark . When her first minion Seishirou resurfaces, she is concerned that she might choose to return to Seishirou over Koyomi, still having some affection for him, but admits in the end that she wants to stay with Koyomi. Her liking for Koyomi leads to her desiring to restore their master-servant bond whenever it is broken, despite it restricting her abilities and movements.
Due to being around Meme for many hours while performing her silent treatment, she's obtained a bit of knowledge about different types of oddities , and often helps out Araragi in his time of need, but she still remains as no expert.
Shinobu very rarely refers to anyone by name, with Koyomi showing surprise that she called Tsukihi by hers in Tsukihi Phoenix. Instead she refers to most people by nicknames, such as calling Hitagi "tsundere girl".


Kizumonogatari

Sodachi is a young female with long silver/grey hair, grey eyes and a pale complexion. She dresses in the typical Naoetsu Private High School uniform that Tsubasa Hanekawa and Hitagi Senjougahara also wear, and her hair into twintails. In Zoku Owarimonogatari , her Mirror World counterpart has shorter hair and is more cheerful.

Designs for Owarimonogatari Designs for Zoku Owarimonogatari

While initially introduced as a fairly intimidating person, the younger Sodachi that Koyomi once knew had shown a warm personality with a calmer demeanor.
During her years in high school, she's described as a girl who looks at others as if appraising them. Sodachi is a student with a strong sense of competitiveness. This is mainly the reason behind her more popular nickname, much to her chagrin. She loves mathematics and describes them as beautiful. Because of Koyomi's results in math, Sodachi often looks at him with a strong, almost psychotic feeling of hatred. [1]
