Kenshirou is a slim man of above-average height. He has a dark complexion and a single buck tooth protruding from the left side of his mouth. He has white and pink hair tied in a ponytail that curls at the end; the rest of his hair feathers out to the sides with two short bangs framing his face. He has deep pink eyes and possesses long eyelashes - he wears a black eyepatch over his right eye, suggesting that it may be missing.
Kenshirou's most common outfit is the standard Nanba Prison guard uniform, which he wears with multiple modifications, including spike accessories on his boots and belt. However, his most prominent feature is his pastel pink haori which is decorated with a darker pink cherry blossom pattern. He wears petal-shaped pins on his collar, and his hat is adorned with a gold cherry blossom ornament. As a guard of building four, he wears a white armband on his left arm. His name badge is pinned to his left breast.

Kenshirou is a calm, reserved and cool-headed individual who doesn’t speak often and rarely exhibits strong emotion - because of his quiet nature, he is rather popular with women. [10] Despite this unemotional persona, he is noted to be a poor liar and is easy to read to the point that his coworkers and even inmates [11] can tell what’s on his mind with little difficulty. He is very serious and seems to be the most levelheaded of the supervisors, remaining calm even while they are showing strong emotions [12] and often attempting to break up arguments between them. This, however, causes him to come across as arrogant, pompous and cold, contributing to their typically tense relationship. [13] Despite this attitude, he himself is not above bending the rules as shown when he let dogs into a staff room; [14] he seems quite fond of the animals in general, with several of his subordinates being dogs who he gets along quite well with. [15]
Kenshirou's arrogance is further displayed through his great confidence in his abilities, believing himself to be capable of defeating Nanba's strongest guard [16] and not seeing the rest of his coworkers as worthy opponents. [17] He is dedicated to his job, willing to not only train to achieve his goals but to go to great personal lengths to ensure justice brought to those who deserve it; he shows great resentment for criminals who go unpunished, displaying heated anger that differs from his usually equanimous nature. [18]
Despite being mostly impersonal in his conduct, Kenshirou is noted to harbor powerful romantic feelings for Momoko Hyakushiki and hopes to defeat Hajime to gain her acknowledgment, showing a large amount of determination in his attempts to do so. [19] He has a significantly jealous side and resents those who gain affection from her [20] and at some point buys a handmade doll of her worth Y10,000, displaying a rather weak will as he had initially shown hesitation in doing so. [21]

As a guard of building three, he wears a purple armband on his left arm.

Kiji is strict, bossy and short-tempered in nature, prone to nagging those around him; his bossiness is such that he is stated to be an unwanted maternal figure among the supervisors [6] . He is impatient and short-tempered to the point that he can come across as somewhat intimidating [7] . Described as an aesthetically conscious individual [8] , he considers himself to be beautiful and takes a great amount of pride in his appearance such that it borders on arrogance. He has a certain bias towards those who are handsome [9] .
Despite this, Kiji does not appear to be shallow or discriminative as he speaks quite negatively of those who judge others without truly knowing them [10] . In spite of his bossy and arrogant nature, he is capable of being rather warm and kind to others, including inmates, opponents [11] and former enemies [12] . He is shown to be quite protective of his inmates - albeit due mostly to their handsome appearances - and becomes considerably distressed at the prospect of them becoming hurt [13] that he has a tendency to worry a lot, which is stated by Mitsuru Hitokoe [14] .

Koisuke is also gullible when it comes to romance, being deceived by Sith that the shinigami can alter his marriage prospects.
He is self-conscious about his face due to so many people thinking he wears a mask underneath a mask and he also gets very sad when people do that mistake.

[5] He originally prioritizes training over anything else, including his own health and happiness; he admits that he sees even the act of eating food as merely an aid for his consistent training regiment, displaying his rigid and uptight personality.

[7]
Liang is shown to be ambitious and prideful, possessing a great amount of confidence in his abilities. He is quick to attempt to prove or challenge his strength and will go to great lengths to improve it to the extent that it borders on an obsession. He quickly becomes excited at the thought of fighting a strong opponent and refuses to back down from a challenge to the point of stubbornness and recklessness. [8] He has been disciplined in his training since childhood, believing strength to be a sign of masculinity; similarly, he believes women to be inherently weaker than men and is irritated by the fact that he is regularly mistaken for one.

The front of Mashiro's face has yet to be revealed, however, there are a few hints as to what it could be. In Jyugo 's memories he is only shown to have a red scar that is horizontal with three evenly spaced vertical lines on it, as well as black hair. Later, in Musashi , Noriko Sanzou 's memories and the present time, he is shown with white hair, which could indicate that it has been many years or that his hair is naturally white.

Mashiro's personality is unknown since he has never appeared far enough to describe it and all the information on him is told by others, not by him. However, as seen how he leaves Musashi alone once he has done experimenting with him in the flashback,  Determined to create a being akin to god, he's willing to sacrifice others for success including the lives of his own family [1] showing that he has little regard for life and is callous.

She is also serious about her job as Warden, with her crush for Hajime being of less importance than her duty, as shown where she issued him a suspension for unnecessary roughness in bringing down Jyugo during his fit of rage, although she was severely depressed for doing so and even cried, asking Hajime for forgiveness when she was alone in her room [2] .

Musashi is a young man of above-average height with a muscular physique. He has short, spiky red and yellow hair and cobalt blue eyes. Having lost both his eyes in his teens, [5] [6] he now wears a black eyepatch over the remaining scars, the most prominent of which is a long, vertical one over his right eye. A second, smaller scar is visible to the left side of his lips. His skin, which was initially somewhat pale, has become dark likely due to excessive exposure to heat. Musashi bears multiple piercings; a large gold hoop in each ear, a third hoop on his left nipple, and four studs on each collarbone. He has black phoenix tattoos on each shoulder blade and his inmate number, 634, tattooed on his left shoulder. His nails are painted red.

During his childhood, Musashi was a warm and optimistic boy. He took great pride in the additional body heat he was born with, considering it to be a unique and special trait. [7] He is also a highly intelligent individual and studied with great dedication during his time in college, consistently receiving high grades. [8] However, incidents such as his convalescence from spontaneous human combustion, as well as the following social isolation caused by a rumor that he was an arsonist, caused him to lose his cheerful outlook and develop a withdrawn, anxious personality such that he was constantly in fear. [7] After being falsely accused of murdering his parents, he seemed to lose hope entirely such that he was glad to be in jail where he had no further responsibilities. [2]
After being experimented on and given superhuman powers by the people responsible for his parents’ deaths, Musashi believed himself to be a monster and ultimately renounced his humanity, developing a certain amount of misanthropy. [5] He sought desperately to kill the man with the scar, willing to do so even if he died himself in the process; he stated that the prospect of revenge was the only thing he lived for. [5] This thirst for vengeance allowed him to behave quite ruthlessly towards others without remorse; first displayed as an arrogant, rude and ambitious individual, he attempted to kill multiple Nanba Prison supervisors as well as Jyugo in the hopes of getting what he wanted. [3] His belief that he could overpower and murder even the strongest of Nanba's guards indicates that he has great confidence in his abilities and a strong disregard for others.

Musashi realizes he can make up for his past mistakes

After being defeated and questioned by Kenshirou, Musashi mellows out considerably. As he himself puts it, his way of thinking changes [9] and he develops a calmer personality, displaying a genuine desire to start again and become a better person. [10] He becomes more talkative and cooperative, openly talking about his past and feelings, suggesting that he has become far more relaxed and trusting; this is exemplified by the highly relaxed, informal dialogue that he begins to speak in. While he is typically calm in nature, he admits to becoming nervous at the thought of talking to others. [11] Despite this, he makes an effort to do so and typically enjoys himself in the company of his fellow inmates. He has a significant amount of sympathy and compassion for others and is highly perceptive.

Image Gallery

Nadeshiko is initially portrayed as a rather cold, ill-tempered girl who cares little about school or even her own family. [1] Her bitterness stems from the belief that her father doesn't care about her; [2] though well-behaved and patient as a toddler, [2] this opinion caused her to give up on her attempts to be good and resort to rebellion and misbehavior in the hopes of gaining his attention. [3] Nadeshiko is also rather loud and demanding, often communicating by shouting. Because of the things she has seen on TV, she firmly believes that all inmates are bad people and should remain locked up. [2]
After learning more about Yamato, Nadeshiko develops a far warmer and happier disposition. [3] [4]

[7] He is affectionate and cares greatly for his friends, tending to become lonely without them. [8]

Nico's alternate persona

Nico is a very sickly individual who is dependent on medication for survival. While he initially hated medicine due to his phobia of the injections needed to take it, he is provided with oral medication in Nanba prison which causes him to greatly enjoy taking his medicine to the point of addiction. [9] However, when it wears off, his cheerful persona disappears and is replaced with a violent, bloodthirsty personality. In this state, he refers to himself in the third person and becomes obsessed with retrieving his medicine, viewing it as his only lifeline. [10]

Ninohana is a mature and dignified guard dog. He is observant and takes his job at Building 4 very seriously, yet usually prefers to keep his distance from the action to better plan his next moves.

She also wears a cream-colored veil adorned with an elaborate gold headpiece and white tights and white and yellow ankle boots with small heels.

Noriko is a calm, warm and kind-hearted person who has put others before herself since childhood, the extremity of which is when she attempts to kill herself in the hopes that her absence would bring happiness to others. She was notably withdrawn and anxious as a child, believing her powers made her a monster who would inevitably bring misery to others; [1] however, after meeting Enki Gokuu she grew to accept her powers and believed she could use it for good in the world. [5] Her ability to read into the hearts of others has helped her to develop a highly compassionate and empathetic nature, doing all she can to reassure people in distress. [6] Even the unaffectionate Enki once states that she has a heart more beautiful than any other human, [4] showing how deeply her kindness has touched those around her.
Noriko is initially characterized by the immense amount of faith she has in the world as a whole and, for a considerable time, truly believes that there is some good in every living thing. [7] However, after years of being abused and neglected by various people she cared for, she grew to hate the world to the point of no longer wanting to see it [2] and subsequently cares for no one but Enki, who is described as her sole reason for living. [8] This results in a desperation to save him no matter what, more than willing to kill or die as long as she protects Enki in the process. [9]

Qi has messy gray hair gathered into a small ponytail at the back, with the rest left loose and two long, wavy bangs framing his face. His gray coloring causes him to be frequently mistaken for an elderly man, despite only being in his twenties. He stands at above average height and has purple eyes outlined with makeup of the same color, often hidden by a pair of round sunglasses. He has unkempt stubble on his chin and wears stud earrings.
Qi wears a purple inmates' jumpsuit with the sleeves and legs rolled up to the elbows and knees. He wears it slightly open, exposing a black top underneath, with the orange ribbon tie handing loose over his right shoulder. He wears brown sandals, and his ID badge is pinned to the left side of his chest.

Qi is a laid-back person to the point of immense laziness and frivolity; he is first introduced by napping while his cellmate and supervisor participated in the New Year's Tournament, claiming to not be cut out for such things. [1] He is quick to find excuses to avoid work and training, often by feigning sickness, [2] and yet habitually claims to be exhausted and stressed despite having done very little [3] . As a result, he is often looked down upon by his highly disciplined cellmates who have a tendency to refer to him as "scum" or "trash"; these insults appear to have had a negative impact on his self-esteem, as when he met Musashi, he was surprised when they had a conversation without the latter mocking him. [4]
Despite his frivolous nature, Qi is a warm person with a deep amount of compassion for his cellmates. Like Inori Hakkai , he feigned betraying them in the hopes of protecting them which, according to Upa, indicates his recklessness, lack of self-preservation and a disregard for what other people want. Like Upa and Liang, Qi greatly values building five and wishes to start over there. [5]

Ram has fluffy dark blue hair that covers his eyes adorned with small ram horns. He is seen wearing a black blazer with a coattail and a dark navy vest with yellow stripes. He wears a ribbon around neck with similar colors.


Nanbaka

001 has short noble gray hair. He also wears long dark gray pants, a long white lab coat that reaches below his knees, covering partly his black shirt and name tag that he wears as a necklace.
Isou also commented on 001's appearance by saying he looks much older than the last time he saw him.

001 is devoted to his work as a researcher, not wanting to get involved with Shiki 's situation (with them wanting to get back the items for the "key" they're after). He even said that he'd give them the document they need for the key if they promise not to interfere with him and the facility he works in anymore.
That aside, just like Researcher 002 , he is also quite rude and judgemental of others who are considered as extraordinary/strange to humanity's eyes, something we see when he asked Isou if the organization he's from still make "monsters" like Manji Yorozu , using said word as an insult. He also judges Isou as a person and as a doctor, saying that Isou really is insane just like 001 thought and even gives Isou's role as a doctor as something bad by saying "We may both be former doctors, but at least I haven't lost my way", that he's still sane unlike the other despite them having the same role.
001 also disagrees with Isou's words about that experiments on humans are better than experiments on animals, saying that the medicine related research him and the facilty are doing is more legitmate than the other.


Nanbaka

002 has short dark pink hair and dark cyan eyes. She wears glasses, a long white lab coat that reaches below her knees, covering partly her lavender shirt, and a black skirt.

From what we've seen from 002's duplicate, she appears to be a calm type of person at first — when meeting Yakumo and Six face to face for the first time, she approached them calmly, despite the fact that they destroyed the facility her and the rest of Team F are a part of.
However, despite her calm first impression, later on she does come off as someone who is rude and judgemental of others who are considered as extraordinary/strange to humanity's eyes. We can see her rude, and overall negative behavior, when she insults both Shiki members (Yakumo and Six) by insulting them with things such as "his ( Man with the Scar 's) guinea pigs", "monsters". But it's not just them that she insulted, 002 also gave a bad name for the man with the scar by saying that he's cruel, brutal, doesn't understand the value of life and will never understand such thing.
002 is also the type of a stubborn person who will stay devoted for her own beliefs and the beliefs she chooses to follow in general. That's something we can see when she says that she believes that her and her team's actions have saved the world, and that 002 also refuses to hand the "key" Yakumo and Six are after because of how dangerous it can be for it to fall "to the wrong hands", and it's not just with them but anyone in general.
Adding to her stubborness, 002 is also a confident person who is, more or less, full of pride. Especially when it comes to her role as being a part of a research team, she's devoted to it and believes her and the other members' actions should get a praise for what they've done and what they're doing to protect the world. We also see her confidence, and a slight bravery, when she said that she will protect the data that she has in her hands.

Rianni Ju-ichigo appears as a round, circular object, remarked to look like a "small planet-shaped thing". It also has no gender because it is not human; it's more similar to a machine or a soccer ball.

While working, she wears a green apple-shaped headphone with a small microphone on her left ear which holds a small red glasses-esque piece over both of her eyes. It is unknown if the headphone is a single piece or a complete pair.

Rock is a tall young man with a muscular build. He has lightly tanned skin and rather choppy, purple hair styled with a prominent red mohawk in the center, with a single lock falling between his gold eyes; his hair is adorned with tribal-style decorations adorned with green, red, and yellow beads and white and red feathers. Across the bridge of his nose is a thick, jagged scar. His nails are purple, and his ID number, 69, is tattooed in black on his right forearm.
Rock wears an orange inmates’ jumpsuit with short sleeves, worn with the top almost completely unzipped, exposing his muscular chest. He wears dark brown boots, and his ID badge is pinned to the left side of his chest.

In the past, Rock was a highly violent and aggressive individual such that he was ultimately arrested for starting an urban gang riot. [1] However, after meeting Jyugo, he discovered a love of food and subsequently mellowed out a great deal. [3] Although he retains a loud, impulsive, and prideful personality, he is a lot calmer and behaves gently towards others, caring greatly for his friends. Despite this calmer persona, Rock retains a love of fighting and is capable of losing his temper when things don't go his way; he seems to regard aggression as the easiest and most effective way to solve problems. He won’t hesitate to challenge both inmates [4] and guards [5] [6] to fight and has immense confidence in his strength; however, he tends to over-rely on his physical prowess and large frame, allowing him to be easily outsmarted. [7]

Rock's love of food

As well as fighting, Rock is characterized by his love of food and is described as a dim-witted individual who thinks of very little else. He values food as more than a mere necessity, seeing it as a very social thing that can bring genuine happiness to others. [3] As stated by Hajime Sugoroku, the mere prospect of food is enough to keep him out of trouble, further indicating his simple-mindedness. [8]

Rokudo is a middle aged pale-skinned man with a toned build. He has a few stitches that run up his shoulders to the center of his chest and to his jawline and chin, while his fingernails are painted black. His eyes are heterochromatic , sometimes changing into different colours; his left eye is a glowing red-orange colour, with a tattoo of the number "610" just below his iris, while his right eye is blue. A blue earring is worn on his left ear. He has short raven black hair. He wears a black shirt, its grey collar loose, partially exposing his chest. The sleeves of his shirt run down to his elbows and notably has grey on the end. On his chest, two lines of stitches can be seen, presumably going down to his waist. He is also wearing black pants and sandals that have a black sole and strap.

Rokudo is apathetic and seems to have memory loss.

Ruka is a slim, fair-skinned man who stands at average height. He possesses long, straight teal hair with dark blue highlights, styled with the bangs fanned out to the side resembling fins and two long strands framing his face, with the rest separated into four strands reaching past his thighs. He has purple eyes with gold rings around the pupil, adorned with thick teal eyeshadow and prominent lower lashes. His nails are teal.
Despite no longer being a guard, [2] Ruka wears a slightly modified version of the standard Nanba Prison guard uniform consisting of teal and dark blue shawl worn around his shoulders and decorated with a hexagonal pattern resembling scales. His hat is decorated with three gold, hexagonal accessories and, Instead of the standard red belt, he wears a dark blue belt tied into a bow in the middle and decorated with pale blue beads. He wears a necklace comprised of large, dark blue beads resembling Buddhist prayer beads, and a pair of dark blue boots decorated with a gold diamond pattern.

Ruka has a calm and composed exterior but is also bold and sadistic, seeming to find entertainment in tormenting and punishing those who get in his way. [3] He is highly persistent and aggressive in his attempts to take down his opponents but rarely fights with his full strength straight away, indicating a certain amount of pridefulness and arrogance. He is rather manipulative, willing to take control of former coworkers in order to meet his ends, and states that he enjoys learning other people’s secrets despite having no other interest in those around him. [4]
Ruka is characterized by his idolization of Enki Gokuu , believing himself to be closer to him than anyone. He adores him to the point of imitating his mannerisms in the hopes of bonding to him, including repeatedly insisting that no one will understand what's on his mind. He holds the belief that everything Enki does must be right, including the act of murder; this has resulted in him attempting to kill to meet his ends with no hesitation, justifying his illegal actions by stating that Enki is a murderer as well. According to Kiji Mitsuba , this is because Ruka, like many residents of building five, has a habit of acting without thinking. [5]

Ruka frets about his makeup during an intense situation

Despite claiming to be dissimilar to his rival Kiji, Ruka shares many traits with the supervisor to the point where many see no difference between them. [6] An example of this is that he is a remarkably arrogant individual who takes an immense amount of pride in his appearance, often worrying about it during serious situations; [7] during battle, he habitually opts for waterproof makeup so that he can come into contact with water without ruining it, indicating his vanity. [8] In addition, he once considers betraying Enki in exchange for some high-quality makeup. He also shares Kiji's short-temperdness and bossiness, being quite demanding of others and quickly losing his temper when he isn't taken seriously [9] or if his appearance isn't up to his standards. [10]


Nanbaka

Samon is a slim young man of below-average height. He has lightly tanned skin and slicked-back curly orange hair that has green bangs at the bottom on both sides; when he was younger, he wore it long and tied into a thin braid. [4] His eyes are green and outlined with red makeup; additional red makeup is dotted at the corners of his mouth. He wears two silver, hoop earrings in each of his ears, and his arms and legs are covered in red sleeve tattoos featuring numerous spiral patterns. His nails are painted light green.
Samon wears a slightly modified version of the standard Nanba Prison guard uniform. He wears round, red, and gold shoulder pads instead of rectangular ones, and his belt is fastened with an oval-shaped buckle; attached to the back of his belt is an ornament resembling a monkey's tail, which is red in color with a white tip. Instead of being black, his boots sport a red and black camouflage pattern and have green and gold trimming. He wears spiral-shaped pins on his collar, and his hat is decorated with a gold headband instead of the Nanba Prison symbol. As a guard of building five, he wears a dark green armband on his left arm.

Like many residents of building five, Samon is a competitive, energetic and feisty individual. He is very dedicated to his training and has been since childhood, [5] harboring immense pride in his abilities to the extent that it borders on arrogance; while fighting an opponent he deems unworthy, he does so while closing his eyes or using only one arm as a means of "engaging" them. [6] He regularly subjects his inmates to training as a form of both rehabilitation and punishment, [7] [8] and claims that his building is the most disciplined as a result. As such, he largely considers himself to be the superior of all of the supervisors. [9] He is very disciplined and diligent himself, and subsequently has little patience with lazy or frivolous people. [10] He is noted to be rather childish and has a short fuse, regularly losing his temper over insignificant things such as the mention of his weaknesses. [6]

Samon admits to his faults

Much of Samon’s pride seems to stem from a significant inferiority complex that he harbors towards Enki Gokuu , who spent much of their childhood informing Samon that he was weak. [11] As such, he regularly refuses to admit to his losses or weaknesses [6] and sees any offer of help as a personal insult, resulting in him stubbornly taking on all tasks by himself to the point that his subordinates often worry about his health. [12] He is ambitious and quickly becomes frustrated when he isn’t as strong or dependent as others, [13] wishing to be the strongest of those around him in order to both defeats and protect them, [14] Eventually, he openly characterizes his own pride and ambitiousness as mere greed and petty lies, showing a surprising amount of maturity by reconciling with his flaws and asking his coworkers for help for the first time
Samon is dedicated to his job and often takes it upon himself to try to unveil his coworker’s misdeeds [15] or otherwise enforce the rules in the place of his boss. [2] He himself asserts that he is the superior supervisor and has never permitted an inmate to escape, further displaying his arrogance. [9] Befitting of his feisty and energetic nature, he is quick to pick fights with others. [2]

Scara B. Kepri appears as an Ancient Egyptian tomb used for a pharaoh. No one has ever seen her body or heard her voice, except for Momoko but as soon as the sarcophagus closes all the living and are not forgotten, Momoko confirmed that the pharaoh is of unparalleled beauty.

Scara B. Kepri is an egotistical individual. Since he is the only God in flesh and blood and not a reincarnation this gives him a unique arrogance, and also an inexhaustible power .

Seitarou's most prominent feature is his long, spiky blue hair which he wears in a low ponytail decorated with gold stars. He has fair skin, deep pink eyes and has frequently been described as handsome.
Seitarou wears the standard Nanba Prison guard uniform with no alterations. As a guard of building thirteen, he wears a red armband on his left arm.

Seitarou has a reserved, soft-spoken personality. Unlike the majority of his coworkers, he is rather meek and timid in nature and can be easily reduced to tears. As a result, he finds it difficult to be taken seriously and is often bullied by inmates, who seem to have little respect for him despite his position of authority. [1] As a result of this regular bullying, he tends to be highly surprised and touched when others behave kindly to him to the point of being moved to tears. [2] Befitting of his shy nature, he seems to dislike confrontation and, instead of disciplining inmates, resorts to attempting to befriend them to avoid their teasing. [3] He is rather lacking in self-confidence and believes himself to be unworthy even of simple tasks such as looking after an inmate’s belongings, [4] much less disciplining them successfully.
Seitarou is shown to be a kind, polite person, even towards inmates and his juniors. [5] He seems concerned for the inmates’ wellbeing, as shown when he picks up on Jyugo’s downhearted state following his encounter with Elf and attempts to find out whether something has happened to him. [6] Despite his timid nature, he does, on occasion, attempt to stand up for himself and shows a certain determination to do well in his job, often doing more than necessary to help others and make his job easier.

His teeth are sharp, and he has light fingernails. On each ear, he wears two silver clips on the top of his ear and a single circle attaching a long earring with a platinum gem on end.

Shin is a bold individual who goes as far as to grab Momoko Hyakushiki by the waist and flirt with her and even question Hajime Sugoroku when he comes in to hand her papers.
He highly takes pride in his appearance and believes to be "handsome", making others refer to him as "Prince" or "Shin-sama".
He's also rather jumpy, as seen when speaking with Kiji Mitsuba and abrasive when he blatantly interrupted a moment of rareness between Kenshirou Yozakura when he almost got his head patted.
Despite these antics, his mood can change from polite and silly to downright cunning; knowing the information of events going on in the male side of Nanba Prison even though he doesn't travel there often. He's also deceptive and can be cold when he feels necessary, making him a dangerous person.
He also doesn't mind giving out tips to becoming attractive. If someone's interested in being popular like him, he'll give them information, as long as they admit they aren't better than him. He also has the tendency to talk about someone's attractiveness, whether it be rudely, critically, or politely.

He typically wears an steel mask: it has a blank expression with closed eyes and no color. He also wears a habit, which is dark gray, white and gold, with his inmate number on a badge on his left chest,  and a necklace with a shinigami(?) symbol attached.
After events occuring in the second New Years Tournament Sith is shown with two scars across his face.

Sith is a shinigami cultist, actively seeking out others to believe in the shinigami through recruitment posters, becoming disinterested and annoyed when the other party isn't interested in becoming a believer.
He is also a selfish individual, using others as a way to recruit shinigami believers, which can be seen when he deceives Koisuke Kyuubi into purchasing a shinigami charm that can 'alter' Koisukes marriage prospects. [2]

Six is rather serious and studious, receiving good grades and tending to be tactical by analyzing opponents to be able to extract the most information from them. However, at times he participates in the nonsense others do. He’s shown to be loyal and like an ‘honor student’ around Isou , who he looks up to, but, around the others he is shown to be harsh, rude and bratty. Despite this, he can be considerate.
He is shown to be ill-mannered when eating the cream puffs that Mei and Ido made, shoving it into his mouth and making a mess by getting it everywhere and not cleaning it up afterwards. He’s keen to sticking his middle finger up, showing his temper and short fuse. He has also been shown to be sadistic, as seen when using his power to kill a guard that was questioning Yakumo and himself.

Taura is a tall, curvy, and attractive woman with abundant spiky white hair of varying lengths, the longest clumps reaching down below her waist, which somewhat resembles a pine tree in shape. Two swept tufts of her hairpieces curve to the sides. She has sky blue eyes that tilt downwards in the center, framed by a set of rather long white eyelashes and faint freckles sprinkled across her nose and cheeks. She appears to have a white tail with a red ribbon tied at the end.
Her clothing is similar to a pin-up cowgirl; a 'cow' printed bra, which emphasizes her breasts, a dolly jean shirt tied under her breasts, and cow-printed cowgirl/boy style pants with holes cut out around her upper thighs. Along with black short shorts, she wears a white thong with the strings pulled up to the top of her hips. She has a cowboy hat with the zodiac medallion on the front, black gloves with stars cut out that most of the Zodiac Police members wear, and a brown belt decorated with gold studs, a matching zodiac buckle in its center with fringes on it with a cow tail strapped on her bottom. She also sports a red ribbon on her neck with a cowbell tied in the middle.
In the more recent chapters, her cowboy hat is now black instead of blue, adorned with a red band and a silver medallion of the zodiac sign she was based off, Taurus, in the middle. She wears a brown & black crop-top style jacket adorned with silver studs, and a red belt with a buckle that matches the medallion on her hat.  Her pants have a similar cut to the one in her previous outfit, only now the cow print is replaced with all brown, decorated with fringes on the sides and silver studs. She appears to not wear a white thong anymore, and her black fingerless gloves no longer have the star-shaped holes on the back (most likely because it is implied that she is no longer part of the Zodiac Police [1] ). The ribbon around her neck is a darker shade of red, with the ribbon now tied on the side with no cowbell.
She still wears a cow print bra and black short shorts.

Taurus is a very prudent and dedicated person who acts as a natural leader and is generally level-headed and calm in dangerous situations, but she isn't above falling into a panic. Taurus can be blunt with her comments about people's mistakes and miscalculations, tending to be very honest and wishing to help her peers improve enough to become great, like furthering an investigation. Taurus shows further development as a selfless hero who gets inspiration from her brother, realizing the important thing is to focus on saving her and help them out at that moment, even if it means losing her life.
Despite her semi-serious attitude, she also is quite bubbly and shameless. But there are times when she can be shown to be serious and brave as she went to go retrieve her brother's body from Ceremony.

Tomato is a youthful-looking man [6] of below-average height, despite the fact that he claims he is well over the age of 30. He has red eyes and buck teeth resembling that of a rabbit. His hair is shoulder-length and contains green, pink, and yellow streaks, with front bangs long enough to cover his eyebrows. On top of his head sits a pair of round goggles with red frames and yellow lenses. He also wears yellow earrings.
Tomato wears a greatly modified version of the Nanba Prison guard uniform, consisting of a black hooded sweater with rabbit ears on the hood; attached to the rabbit ears are gold tags, and the left ear has a pink tip. The sweater has red and gold trimming and gold zips on the sleeves, which cover his entire hands in a manner resembling paws. He wears pastel blue boots decorated with gold and red trimming and pink polka dots, and, as a guard of building one, he wears a pink armband on his left arm.

Tomato initially appears as bubbly, outgoing and approving, not hesitating to complement an inmate’s achievements even when their actions are against prison rules. He himself seems to have little regard for the rules, regularly attempting to contact inmates from buildings other than his own despite having been forbidden from doing so. He is also quite childish, resorting to juvenile pranks as a means of revenge against those who irritate him [7] .  He possesses an insatiable curiosity and is willing to travel great distances across the prison on foot for a chance of finding out information.
Despite his friendly persona, Tomato is a highly volatile and capricious individual prone to mood swings. He has the potential to, without warning, develop a much darker, sinister and irritable personality, especially when he doesn’t get his own way. Described as “eccentric”, he has an ambitious nature and is obsessed with invention and research, traits which are often considered out-of-place for a prison guard [8] .

He sports a black and purple tool belt with a pouch containing various tools resting on each hip. He also wears red boots. His ID badge is pinned to the left side of his chest.

Like Honey, Trois is a cocky individual with a great amount of confidence in his appearance and abilities to the point of vanity, considering himself to be the best looking man in Nanba. In contrast to his cellmate, however, he is a calm, warm and friendly individual. He rarely bears a grudge against others [1] and is nearly always seen smiling. He is kind and gentle to others and, despite his somewhat arrogant nature, won’t hesitate to compliment other people’s abilities. Trois loves women and seems to be highly popular among them; his interest in them borders on perversion as he regularly asks about their underwear, specifically bras, even if the woman is a complete stranger. [2]

Trois is a talented mechanic who is fascinated with machinery such that it borders on obsession. He will instantly dismantle and steal the parts of anything that captures his interest, displaying a certain amount of impulsiveness. [3] He shows great enjoyment in making dangerous weapons and comes across as somewhat sadistic, showing no remorse at harming even his own allies with creations. Ironically, he regards the stealing of the parts to make such weapons as the most immoral part of his actions. [4]

Tsukumo stands at below-average height and has a lean build, gold eyes and a lightly tanned complexion. He has pink hair tied in a long, thin ponytail with a blue band, worn with windswept bangs which are typically brushed to the left, covering his face. He wears multiple piercings in each ear and his ID number, 99, is tattooed in pink on his right wrist. [6] He also wears two blue navel piercings [7] and has pink nails.
Tsukumo's attire resembles that of a stereotypical ninja . He wears a purple inmates' jumpsuit, the sleeves and legs of which are torn at the elbows and ankles respectively. Beneath this, he wears a much tighter, black jumpsuit that covers his entire body, with a mask that can be pulled up to hide his lower face. He wears red bands around his wrists and ankles and sports a thin, black and gold band around his forehead. His ID badge is pinned to the left side of his chest.

Tsukumo is portrayed as a cold, rigid and aloof individual who expresses little emotion. He is unfriendly and displays a great amount of pride in his abilities that border on arrogance, boasting about his talents and accomplishments while mocking the abilities of others. [8]

Tsukumo tries and fails to behave naturally

Tsukumo's haughty exterior hides the fact that his acting career has made him significantly awkward and timid. [9] He describes such traits as the result of an "occupational disease" that he doesn't wish to acknowledge even to himself, posing as his trademark uptight shinobi to avoid people seeing his self-consciousness. [10] Due to the fact that he has spent the majority of his life acting, he has a poor grasp of his real personality [11] and, despite being able to act whatever role is required of him with great precision, is unable to behave naturally. He often aims to imitate others [12] and believes that he is only loved or wanted due to his talent and acting roles, leading him to become rather lonely. [13] After revealing this to Jyugo, Tsukumo decides that he should strive to be himself during his incarceration in Nanba [14] and, though he routinely struggles to do so, becomes a warm, friendly and kindhearted person who values his friends. [15] He is a highly polite and formal person, frequently addressing others with the respectful honorific "-Dono". Like Yamato Godai, he is passionate about Japanese traditions and culture [16] and is dedicated to his training. [17]
Tsukumo appears to have a strong distaste for lying, leading him to resolve to quit his acting career and follow his own path without utilizing any form of deception. [18] Despite this, he still cares greatly about his many fans and frequently worries that they will be disappointed in him if they find out he is in jail; as a result, he tends to panic whenever he is recognized [19] or if he fails to maintain his character as a shinobi. [20]

Tsumuji is a muscular dark-skinned young man. He wears a dark blue mask with white lines which covers his chin, parts of his nose and face. He has his ID number, "6262", pinned on his right breast.

He sounds like an 'okama' when his mask is taken  off.

Uno is a self-proclaimed “pretty boy” young man of above-average height. He is rather well-built and has ankle-length, blond hair with deep pink streaks, worn in in a thick braid with short, messy bangs framing his face. He has fair skin and blue eyes with long eyelashes and thick eyebrows. He wears blue stud piercings on his ears [3] and sports dark blue tattoos on his back and left arm; the number 1 is tattooed in dark blue on the back of each of his hands, forming his ID number 11. His nails are blue.
Uno wears a blue-and-white striped inmates' jumpsuit worn with the top entirely undone and the arms tied around his waist, exposing a black vest top. He wears a blue-and-white striped arm warmer on his right arm and a matching cap decorated with gold pins forming his ID number, eleven. Around his neck is a silver dog tag necklace. He wears black boots, and his ID badge is pinned to the left side of his chest.

Uno takes a great amount of pride in his appearance and is very confident in his abilities, often exerting a certain amount of vanity; he considers himself highly attractive and popular. This is exemplified by the fact that he puts a considerable amount of time into getting ready each morning, as well as arrogantly “predicting” which of his inmates will be popular. He can be quite blunt and tactless in nature. Despite his superficial attitude, he is by no means selfish and is portrayed as a kind, warm, friendly, and extroverted individual who cares greatly for his friends. He understands them well and is willing to accept them for who they are no matter what, as shown when he voiced his fondness and approval for Jyugo despite pointing out all of his flaws moments beforehand. He’s a thoughtful person who is willing to give his friends advice, though he puts no pressure on them to tell him what’s on their minds.
Uno is described as a rather cowardly person who is easily scared. For example, while exploring the Gogyousan Underground prison he becomes terrified of the Jiang Shi dolls used to patrol the area, such that his friends initially wouldn't tell him they were there lest he became too scared to come with them. [4] Despite this, he has little problem standing up to danger, as well as challenging figures of authority, [5] for the sake of his friends.
Uno is a compulsive gambler and, because of his gambling experience, has developed not only a habit of cheating shamelessly but a high level of intuition. He is able to pick up on the habits and body language of others and uses this information to see through their movements and actions; these skills make it easy for him to win various types of fights, causing him to become rather arrogant. He views gambling as a hobby and greatly enjoys playing games with others, indicating his extroverted nature. [6]

Upa is thin and has a notably short stature, to the point that he could quite easily be mistaken for a child. He has white skin and gray eyes outlined with gray makeup. His hair is teal blue in color and has bangs that curl out to the sides, while the strands at the bottom curl in towards his neck. He bares red tattoos in the shape of angular spirals over his body; one on each cheek, and rows of them above and below each elbow and knee. He also sports a prominent stitched scar across the right side of his abdomen. [2]
Upa wears a navy blue inmates’ jumpsuit with short sleeves, fastened at the collar with a red ribbon. He also wears a blue and red Chinese cap, attached to a yellow talisman hanging over his face, and bears the Kanji for his ID number, written in red. He wears plain black shoes, and his ID badge is pinned to the left side of his chest.

Upa is a rather serious person with a calm exterior, rarely showing much emotion. Like many residents of building five, he is shown to be prideful and has great self-confident in his abilities - he openly regards himself as a "gifted master" of qigong and refuses to share his techniques with those he does not deem talented enough, coming across as arrogant at times. [3] He is quite ambitious, prioritizing his goals above anything else and refusing to concede to anyone. Befitting of his prideful attitude, he is reluctant to admit being unable to do a task and cannot stand losing; he will instantly fly into a rage if he does so, exhibiting a child-like temper that differs from his mostly mature temperament. [4]
As a person who is willing to work hard to achieve his goals, Upa has a low tolerance for lazy and frivolous people and is very impatient with them. He can be very forthright and often harsh to such people, often seen referring to his cellmate Qi as "scum" or "trash"; he is shown to be downright rude at times, not only to fellow inmates but even prison guards. [5] [6] Despite this frequently cold and brusque attitude, Upa has proven that he is capable of showing compassion and concern towards others, as shown when he prioritized Nico's safety over his own during his battle with Hachiman. [7]

As a person in charge of building 6, he wears a grey armband on his right arm.

V is overall a polite, respectful and welcoming person to his fellow coworkers and even inmates. Many people have described him as "gothic" which leads to the unfortunate situations experienced throughout his life. He is sad of hearing this, but he doesn't get angry about it. Because of his troubling past, V has a very strong sense of responsibility that can sometimes make him obsessive and lose his mind, to the point of burying himself alive.
When he fails to serve his master or they get even slightly wounded, V  gets in a crazy sado-masochistic state that makes him go on a self-hate rampage and attack who ever harmed his master. He thinks he should die for his mistakes and suffer the worst faith ever for the sake of failing is master. When he feels or undergoes any kind of pain, he gets extremely excited and ask for even more of it.

Orochi is a young man of below-average height and has dull skin and red eyes with teal, triangular markings around them. He has rather messy, dark blue hair with multiple strands falling over his face. Surrounding his neck and arms, he carries several white snakes with red eyes.

He wears teal boots decorated with red ribbons and lighter colored, swirling patterns reminiscent of clouds. As a guard of building eight, he wears a teal armband on his left arm.

Orochi is pessimistic and has a fear of social interaction. He is very self-critical, worrying about how his creations would appear to others because as an artist, he demands a lot from himself. In spite of his negativity, he has an extremely large passion for arts, to the point where others see it as almost an obsession. He approaches and talks to people who show an interest in his work and is very friendly to them, a great difference to his usual behaviour.

He sports rectangular gold pins on his collar, indicating his status as a deputy supervisor, and his name badge is pinned to his left breast. As a guard of building thirteen, he wears a red armband on his left arm,

Yamato is loud and simple-minded in nature, often seen laughing heartily. He is air-headed and clumsy, regularly bursting into both staff rooms and cells in a destructive fashion with little regard for the consequences; [2] [3] even Nico refuses to trust him with his belongings despite his high status as a guard, convinced that he will break them. [4] He is absent-minded and has a poor sense of direction, often being late due to losing his way within the prison. He has been known to rely on inmates to find his way on occasion, [5] suggesting that he doesn’t care much for his pride and respects the inmates beneath him. He is a rather polite and formal person, referring to others with the respectable honorific “-dono”.
Yamato is characterized by his love of training and exercise. He is passionate about it to the point of neglecting his duties in order to train, and regularly has inmates partake in his workouts with no regard for their blatant lack of enthusiasm. [6] In spite of this, he is not the least bit aggressive; he prefers to take the most peaceful route possible during battle [7] and is warm, friendly and compassionate towards others.
Yamato is a highly patriotic individual who indulges in Japanese culture with great enthusiasm. [8]

He has been remarked to be "as cute as Shin Sauzando is handsome" by one of Shin's admirers. [1]

Zakuro is rather childish and quiet. He is unused to socializing, which results in him being nervous around others. He is also a rather paranoid individual, believing that everyone around him is apart of a group of people out to get him. Before Jyugo convinced him to stay at the prison Zakuro was hopeless, believing that he had no future nor the ability to obtain what Jyugo had gotten so easily. [2]

Nano List

She has dark gray hair and pink eyes. She has been described as beautiful.

She was known to be confident, straight forward, a bit psychotic, foulmouthed and displayed a lack of empathy towards others including Milo. However, she reflected on the devastation her creation was capable of and questioned her judgement after Milo was attacked by Chacha 's Androids. She even eventually chose to sacrifice her own life to protect Milo and ensure that the Nano List technology was not compromised.


Nano List

Her appearance is similar to that of a child as she is often described as "young" and "small". She has short dark hair that stops at her neck and her height is petite compared to other androids. She was first seen wearing a ribbon so that she could be distinguished by Milo as his 17th birthday present. She is often described as 'lovely' and 'cute' which was how Dr. Maddie Ahn wanted her to be.

Nano finds Milo to be annoying and daft but cares deeply for him. According to Milo, she is similar to San in many ways. He finds them both pretty but foulmouthed. Everyone believes she picked up the latter trait from her creator .


Nano List

San is an attractive Android with an hourglass figure. She is quite tall, having a height of 181cm. She has long silvery-white hair which is usually combed back and pink eyes. She also has a tattoo just below her left eye, saying " +BEAUTY+ ". San wears black leather gloves when fighting, to stop the skin on her hands from tearing.
According to Milo, San and Nano are the only Androids that he has found truly beautiful.

San adores Milo and often makes sexual advances that leave him flustered. Despite this however, it seems that she does genuinely love Milo as shown in Chapter 26, as she wishes that Milo will not turn out like his sister (who killed herself) and to live his life to the fullest, hoping that she can be on his side forever.
She is often described as foulmouthed, a trait she may have gotten from her creator, Dr. Maddie Ahn.


Natsume's Book of Friends

This youkai is very large and tall. He is entirely black with white eyes, has a petite goatee and wears a purple and white yukata.

A calm youkai at most, the Acorn-Eating Youkai does have a bit of temper and is defensive as he took offense when Reiko questioned why such a large guy like him is eating small scorns.
He claims to dislike humans and like birds as they are not as problematic. However, he can show fondness towards humans (Reiko and Takashi, for instance) if he finds them intriguing or different. He is a helpful youkai, even going as far as protecting Reiko from Kayatsubo's wrath and informing Takashi of Kayatsubo's reason for her rage.

The Ancient Tree Youkai has a massive amount of hair on his body - so much so that only his limbs are visible, with hair covering every other part of the body. He is always seen wearing a plain white mask, with a small beard growing just at the bottom of the mask.

A kind youkai, the Ancient Tree Youkai had taken a liking to Tooru Taki , and does not seem to despise humans, although that does not mean he has a liking to them, either.
It is as if he is inquisitive about humans as he has been around them for many years, but never had the chance to interact with them, until he met Taki and Takashi Natsume .


Natsume's Book of Friends

Aoi has dark blue hair and blue eyes. He is often seen wearing a school uniform with a white collar shirt with a loose sky blue tie and black pants. From time to time, he can also be seen holding a lollipop. He has dark blue bird wings sprouting from his back the same color as his eyes.

Aoi can be considered to get flustered easily when it involves Kaoru. For instance, when he had dropped his letter and Natsume had picked it up for him, he had gotten nervous and took it back, saying he hadn't even realized he had dropped it.
He's also rather kind, even to consider the fact that Kaoru was a human and that he was a youkai and that they shouldn't be together or have mutual romantic feelings for one another.
Likewise to a human, he does display signs of selfishness such as finally wanting to let go of Kaoru by seeing her get 'married'. He also is protective such as attempting to cover for Natsume when youkai had attacked Natsume, Madara and himself.

Aokuchinashi is a shrine god that takes the form of an old woman with gray hair and closed eyes. She wears a traditional pink kimono and covers it with an extremely long, green haori. She carries a long staff to help her stand up and walk and was later seen having a cherry blossom flower in her hair to show off.

As she was a divine being, Aokuchinashi doesn’t have many friends. However, she was extremely kind and gentle towards the things she cares about. Although she was very stubborn and impatient, she became friends with Reiko whom she thought was a youkai. Throughout the story, it was observed that she was also grateful to those who helped her in her problems as it was shown how dedicated she was to find Reiko so she can return the mirror she borrowed.

He has short brown hair and eyes. Additionally, he is also a bit taller than Natsume. He is often seen wearing his school uniform consisting of a white collar shirt and grey pants. In the Winter, he can also be seen wearing long coats and a scarf.

As noted above, Kitamoto is a sensible and rational boy. This can be seen when he gives up on his potential dream career to become a public servant so he can protect and support his family.
He's also rather responsible, scolding his sister, Mana Kitamoto , when she wakes up their sickly father, and when she attempts to buy doughnuts. He informs her that their mother will get mad, but she dismisses this. Another trait is that he pulled over his father's blanket when it had been falling off.
Kitamoto can also be seen as straightforward, humorous and carefree. He tells Natsume that he doesn't have to force himself to hang out with Nishimura if he doesn't want to. At another point in time, when Nishimura accuses Natsume of 'going out' with Taki , he says he'll wholeheartedly support them, resulting in Nishimura's complaints. [1]
He can also be seen as a glutton, stating that he wishes Mana would stop fixating on the shapes in his lunchbox as he just wants it to be full of food rather than creative and cute.
Kitamoto can also be contemplative. For instance, he had been thinking that he could've lost his family and his home, similar to Natsume's circumstances.
