He is seen both in and out of work wearing a white dress shirt, green tie, black pants, and brown shoes.

It's hard to say what Ton is really like. Towards Tsunoda , he is always blushing, showing off his golfing skill, and giving her slack for not finishing her work (then passing it off onto Retsuko). Towards Retsuko , he goes out of his way to make her uncomfortable, overwhelmed, and stressed at work, either by making sexist comments and/or giving a lot of extra work. But when she is going through a rough patch during her finances and relationships, he can tell she is having a hard time and not only gives her slack at work, but also  some heartfelt, mature advice. In addition, while he was drunk at the company engagement party, he admitted that Retsuko has the potential to become a "boss" someday, citing his own past experiences, showing some regret in his actions, and that he has faith in her abilities. Ton doesn't seem to have much interaction with male employees besides Komiya , but all of the employees are extremely disturbed when Ton acts nice. Futhermore, his care and loyalty to his workers is shown as he refuses to compile a list of potential layoffs, resulting in his demotion.
During the time he worked as accountant for Retsuko's channel, he would constantly complain and blame her for harassment, mostly just to annoy her.
Despite his flaws, he loves his family, despite being also intimidated by them and how his overaffection tends to turns his daughters off.

Aggressive Retsuko

Torajima is a white tiger who seems very attractive to many women. He has green eyes, white fur, and a pink nose.
While he goes into a job mixer, he wears a dark blue tuxedo with a gray shirt and a dark green tie matching his eyes. When he shows his job as a physician in episode 66 of the TV shorts, he wears a white shirt and yellow tie while holding a stethoscope.

His only appearance in the shorts is when Retsuko, Washimi, and Gori go to a job mixer, where they all meet three men, including Torajima. Since he was really handsome, Retsuko couldn't handle it, but Washimi and Gori save face as to not be awkward around them.
In the Netflix series, Torajima meets Retsuko and Gori at a speed dating event. As Retsuko screams about the men she's met at the event, he introduces himself to her, seemingly snapping her out of her fury.

However, it all goes downhill when a woman tells them he is a fraud and was paid to be at the event.

Tsubone's appearance is based on the Komodo Dragon. She has grayish-green scales across her body, raised bumps on her forehead, yellow eyes, what appears to be a hunched back, bright red lipstick, and her forked tongue is usually sticking out. Like Retsuko, Tsubone wears a navy blue vest and matching skirt, white dress shirt, and brown shoes while at work; additionally, she wears a pair of glasses with a chain. She is seen at the end of the month office party wearing a purple sweater, gray pants, and black shoes.

Tsubone is a sexist woman who treats her female co-workers poorly (her misogyny is ironic, considering she’s female herself), often piling her own work onto them and talking down to them. On the other hand, she treats her male co-workers very well, blushing and sucking up to them when they talk to her, and sometimes even taking their work and passing it off to a female co-worker. This can notably be seen in the TV shorts when Tsubone is talking to Ookami in the tea room at work and refusing to let Haida open her jar. Tsubone seems to particularly target Retsuko , telling her that she's lazy and does everything wrong.
She will sometimes hide her true intentions behind faux sweetness, such as when she pretended to compliment Retsuko only to pile more paperwork on her already cluttered desk and then laughed maniacally.

Tsunoda's appearance is based on a Thomson's Gazelle.

She is always seen wearing a pink blouse with a white collar, a black ruffled skirt, and gray boots. Tsunoda is the only character who does not wear typical office apparel. This can be linked back to her "sucking up," as she can bend the rules based off of favorites in the office.

Tsunoda has a very upbeat and perky personality which can make her seem somewhat ditzy and tends to drive her co-workers crazy. She forever follows Ton around, praising him for his golfing skills. Retsuko brings this up to Tsunoda during dinner to which Tsunoda responds that she does this for a reason: to stay on the management's good side and that she is fully aware that her co-workers think less of her for it. Tsunoda has an active social media and dating life and tries to drag Retsuko and Fenneko into it.
Tsunoda is a self-proclaimed member of the "Love Police", as she takes relationships seriously, and offers scathing critique to Fenneko, Haida, and even Retsuko on navigating romance through their respective flaws.

Unlike Yoshiko, Ruri has a good amount of common sense, though sometimes her childishness will come out at points.

A running gag throughout the anime is that she will often lose her cool and start shouting.


Aho Girl

Yoshie has light brown hair that is tied in a low pony tail, brown eyes and an average body. She resembles very much like Yoshiko since Yoshiko inherits Yoshie's traits rather than her dad.

Yoshie is not an idiotic person like Yoshiko as Yoshie wishes for Yoshiko to be a normal person. She is very skilled in hand-to-hand combat and can tell a woman's intentions by looking at her panties. She is shown to be rather devious schemer, as she longs to be free of her idiot daughter and retire happily. To do this, she hopelessly tries to set Yoshiko up with Akuru, who wants absolutely nothing to do with her in the future. She is willing to stoop to deprave methods to assure this, such as trying to find ways to get Yoshiko to "seal the deal" with Akuru to ensure he'll marry her in the future once he gets a well-paying job. The extent of her immorality is best shown when she encouraged her daughter to drug Akuru and then "seal the deal" with him after leaving him vulnerable, showing just how far her depravity goes.
Like her daughter, she is rather dirty-minded.


Aho Girl

Yoshiko is a fair-skinned young girl who has an average bust.

Her skin and hair are very well-cared, because she wants to look good in Akuru Akutsu 's eyes. She usually wears her school uniform.

Yoshiko even goes so far as to let him see her panties. Yoshie Hanabatake even goes as far as to beg Akuru to be her boyfriend. Her idiotic actions towards Akuru caused her to get physically assaulted by him. Akuru went as far as to punch her so high in the air it literally knocked her out. She downright annoys him. As a result of stupidity, her social skills are beyond abysmal, and generally make the worst first impressions.
Yoshiko is quite perverted, as she enjoys groping the disciplinary committee president's breasts, has sneaked into Akuru's room and started sleeping around him, and likes to peek in the men's room just to see Akuru.
As a child, she showed a strong proclivity towards great agility and speed. She is strong for a girl despite her petite stature, as when she carried Akuru with little to no effort above her head when they were children. She can jump from one balcony to another, and is shown to have fast reflexes, with the exception of Akuru’s fast punches. However now she gets hit more often 10 years later, since she’s too idiotic to see it coming.

Buccha was originally a bully and loved to toy with others and abuse his power. He was obsessed with becoming an ace Storm Rider, so he gained as many emblems as he could to prove his worth. After his loss to Ikki, he decided to start fresh and reform his attitude.
After joining Kogarasumaru, Buccha is much nicer and calmer. He's more friendly and values his teammates more than he did before. He can still be rather stubborn, and at one point thought about leaving the team should Ikki abuse his position or make decisions without consulting the other members. He does not give respect or trust freely, but if someone impresses him enough, he is willing to open up to others.

Buccha, as he appears in the manga.

Itsuki was 15 years old at the start of the series and is still 15, as seven months have passed.
His nickname "East Side's Greatest Babyface" isn't a reference to his looks as much as it is his role in the Eastside Guns.
He has brownish red eyes and purple hair, which also serves as a nest for a crow.

Ikki is a very upbeat, zany person, who seemingly is as eccentric as just about everyone else in the universe of Air Gear . He delights in eating meat, a privilege he is often deprived of in the Noyamano household. He is rash, impulsive, and determined to do everything his way, whether for good or bad, in stark contrast to his friend Kazu who is calm, timid and more focused and prefers to stay in the background. In battle, Ikki either comes off as his ordinary crazy and unpredictable personality, or his more serious, cold and steely side, which other characters have described as a rare occurrence, and as an intimidating scene. Ikki is totally hooked onto Air Trekking. He treats his ATs with care to such a standard that even his sisters feel jealous of, and his mind is constantly on Air Trekking; for example, during the Kyoto trip he fails to notice Ringo's affection initially, deadset on figuring out a 'Windmill Theory' that another Storm Rider has revealed to him as the secret behind the Rumble King. Ikki is a self-proclaimed genius and is very proud of himself, in particular his fighting abilities. In truth, he works very hard behind the others' backs, as is revealed when Kuu brings his friends to his secret training area, where the scars left over by his training could be seen in chapter 87. Though his attitude can be described as a lowlife, suitable for his gangster-like persona, and though he likes to go around doing insanely foolish things all the time, Ikki has a tendency to think beyond others' perceivable concept and at several intervals can spout deep philosophy that more often than not will impact others. One such incident was the Pomtemkin brothers' battle, where Ikki's plan caused an initial falling out among the Kogarasumaru, where in fact he had his own solution around that matter. Ikki, though easy to miss the obvious, can be very adept when it comes to spotting small details. In their first Parts War, he alone had noticed that Kazu's ATs were the most worn out among them, a mark of how much he practiced.
There are three main women who have feelings/interests for Ikki first one being Ringo who he had always considered a sister(not blood related) but changed after he battled with her and realized she has feelings for him, Simca she takes a huge interest into Ikki from the moment she met him, at one point wanted to become Ikki's tuner and finally Kururu who begins to develop feelings for Ikki this starting when he was hospitalized later she becomes Ikki's tuner. All three have feelings for him, although recently Ikki has shown signs of love towards Ringo.
As noted by Sora, Ikki is a detailed oriented guy. Stating that Ikki is very calculating and could easily calculate a counter strike move after figuring out the enemy plans. According to Sora, Ikki had already calculated how to dodge his and Rikia's super move (e.g. God Crusher Gungnir.) and would done so had Ringo not got in the way and got hit. And after saving Ringo together they quickly countered a larger and more powerful God Crusher Gungnir even though their bodies were freezing due to the extremely cold atmosphere.
Ikki is also known to have an unbreakable will. Even when the situation seems hopeless and pointless he never gives in or gives up. Like when he went to save Ringo despite being told to give up because she would die and he would die in attempting to save her and succeeded in doing so, and quickly reflected an enemy attack together with Ringo in extreme cold.
Ikki states if you run you will hit a wall and if you fly you will get shot down. But even so if you give up it's the end and it's because of the height of the wall that he was able to grow strong enough to compete with Sora. And when Ringo says he must have driven crazy falling down again and again on the ground he states because of that he is at his strongest now when is standing up. And proudly states that there is no impossible in his or Ringo's dictionary.
It has been said by Agito that Ikki can break any cage, made by anyone at anytime. Rika has once noted that Ikki is unpredictable and she can never really understand the logic behind his actions, however he is not like Sora who has logic behind his actions. She remarks that it's like he is building something new every second and with every second that piles up he is reborn anew.
Sora speculated that before Ikki's eyes there exists infinite number of possibilities for the future.

He doesn't seem too ruthless, as he uses rubber bullets when shooting most the time so others don't get killed (though that won't stop him from shooting others regardless). He would always force Akito to do as he's told and would always lock him up in a cage so he wouldn't run away and could use him as a weapon forever, showing a rather possessive side on Kaito's part.
However deep down, Kaito has shown that he's not a man without compassion. There are those that he truly cares for, the first being Gazelle, Agito/Akito/Lind's mother and the woman Kaito loved. In fact, Kaito did everything in his power to keep Gazelle alive so they could be together and refused to abandon her and even cried over her death. He cares for his comrades almost as much, because he has been shown mourning for them after they are killed by Nike. Even Agito has been shown love from Kaito, since the main reason he locked Agito up was because he wanted to protect him, since he didn't want to lose his son like he lost Gazelle. This makes Kaito an "over-protective father" to some.
He is also a chain smoker, that no matter where Kaito is, he's always seen smoking.

Kazu is a blond-haired, blue-eyed teenager. Specifically, he is 15 (14 at the start of the series), 165 cm tall, weighs 49 kg and is blood type A. His usual attire consists of an off-white beanie, pale blue hoodie pullover [or his black uniform jacket in the beginning], black pants and fingerless gloves; he only takes off his beanie when he gets serious. On occasion, he wears a black jacket with Kogarasumaru's logo emblazoned on the back. His looks and introverted personality have earned him many online fans, who refer to him as "Pegasus descended to Earth" . In this description, he is shown as a knight in shining armor riding a white, winged horse.

Kazu was originally bullied by Itsuki Minami as a child, and he often feels like others are more important than himself, especially compared to Ikki's natural talent. Kazu's timid and insecure nature was born from years of living in the shadow of Itsuki Minami, his much more assertive and outgoing best friend. This introverted nature, coupled with a tendency to underperform, often leads others to underestimate him, especially when compared to the brasher personalities of Ikki and Agito . In reality, he is hard-working, smart, and dedicated; of the members of Kogarasumaru , he trains the most and hardest. Kazu is extremely loyal to his friends, and is described as "having the passion to melt all". Although less prone to fits of pervertedness, he does have certain weaknesses which are exploited at several points in the series. He is mostly oblivious to Emily 's infatuation with him. Emily's hand was once shown lifted by Kazu to touch the Moon while he explained that, although he does not consider himself as naturally talented or skilled as other Riders (such as Agito or Ikki) he believes that his position and disposition allows him to better understand and strive towards things that other, more gifted people, would not.

Kilik is a young man of average height with medium length white hair up to his chin and a usually melancholy expression. He sometimes wears sunglasses. He wears a white cloak sometimes. Despite being twins, he and his sister Simca don't share very similar appearances other than a somewhat similar hair style (after Simca cut hers short).

Kilik is an intelligent and somewhat arrogant person. He tends to "test" people to determine their intellect and logical thinking. He is very tactical and calculating, being the key strategist in all his battles. His talent was seen in the Inorganic Net battle, as well as Kogarasumaru 's battle against Sleipnire . Despite all this, he is shown to be rather "naive" as shown when he wished to believe that a normal person could fly higher than the Gravity Children as well as not expecting Sora to hold Rika as a hostage. He says the reason for this naivete lies in his mercy, giving a person a second chance.

Kururu is a young teenage girl of average height with long light colored purple/pink (depending on source) hair that goes down to her back and has some sides of her hair sticking up, which she can't keep smoothed. Her friends call it cute. She usually wears her Tool Toul To outfit or her school uniform and has a hair pin at the top of her head in the shape of an X.

Kururu is a very kind, compassionate, innocent, cheerful, and polite person. She treats others with respect and treasures her friends and family dearly and is willing to do anything for them. Such as when she was torn between being with her father or Ikki whom she developed feelings for and wishes to be his Link Tuner.
Kururu is also very forgiving, such as when Hako Isawa tried to attack her and even stole her tools to make the Storm Regalia , Kururu held no resentment nor hatred towards her and even didn't even cared when she was stabbed in the hand by her. However, Kururu is serious and forceful when she needs to, such as when she told Hako who the leader was and ordered her to do as she's told, knowing when to put others in their place. She is very loyal to her team and considered them to be apart of her family.
Being a member of Tool Toul To , Kururu has a habit of having a large amount of tools on hand that can never been seen on her body and can create and take apart any device in mere seconds, greatly impressing others. This is somewhat a gag, as others wonder what she does with her free time and how does she have so many tools on hand.
Kururu, like Simca and Ringo , has feelings towards Ikki, which develops into love (like Simca and Ringo). She cares for him and admires his compassion toward his friends such as when he cried over Simca's condition and Sora's betrayal, she held him. She even wishes to be his tuner on more than one occasion. However, despite her feelings towards him, she respects him enough to let him choose who he wants to be his Tuner, such as being ok with Ringo being the Tuner for him and even lied saying she only respects him as a rival. However, she confirmed to her team that while she still loves Ikki, she doesn't want Ringo to know.

Mitsuru has a peculiar appearance, possessing short, grey-silver hair and distinct, completely black eyes. (Shown as grey in the anime.) When not seen in his Behemoth gear which consists of, a t-shirt, shorts, and a neck brace, he is seen in a sweater and trousers during the first meeting with Kogarasamaru. After the downfall of Behemoth (in the manga), Mitsuru's outfit is changed constantly.

Nina originally appears as a muscular man in dark, tight fitting clothes, however, she is actually appears as a petite woman with shoulder length hair and sporting a tight body suit that appears to help her sync with her AT suit.

Personality-wise, Nina is shown to be very in-tune with others' thoughts and even their AT tricks. She provides an insightful analysis of Kilik's Gaia Road techniques and playfully discusses his battle strategies, commenting that she would probably use the same tactics if she were in his position. This attitude earns her a level of disdain from Ume .


Air Gear

He has short, spiky lavender hair and dark blue eyes. One thick lock of hair curves back, and he wears a large, black cape over his regalia. His regalia covers the majority of his body; beneath, he is skinny and wiry and covered in tattoos. In accordance with his age, Nue is shorter than the majority of the other kings, standing at roughly the same height as Simca

Nue is intelligent and caring, but overall fairly serious. He seems to prefer being on the "winning team" as he declined Ikki's proposal to join his team and stayed in Genesis under Sora's leadership. He also appears to be rather arrogant and sure of his own abilities. As seen when he mocks Ikki during both their confrentations and even gives Ikki ten free "deaths" during their fight on the aircraft carrier. In accrodance with this arrogance, Nue wishes to fight with his (and his team's) own strength, refusing to accept the improved regalia core from Minami Rinta, stating that if he did, he would "never be able to stand on [his] own feet" then after the battle, he joins under Ikki.
Nue cares very deeply for his team Black Crow and is seen by all of the members as a leader and older brother protecting the young members when they are scared. This bond is shown when Nue stops attacking his father, whom he shows great hostility towards, when is team members begin to show distress. He belives that the members have entrusted their future to him, and so will fight to make sure that "their futures are filled with nothing but happiness" and is shown to be visibly distraught when the members are suffering, and blames himself for not realising how hard they push themselves. But is nether the less sure in their abilities and confident in what they can accomplish.

He always wore a straps covering his head. When Sleeping Forest launched their attack on Simca , he wore a big size T-shirt and necklace with short pants. Later, when his team was fighting Sora and Rika, he wore a hoodie and long pants when he disguised as Kilik.

Onibasu is calm, he often more quiet, only will talk when needed. He seems to also be able to understand people well, saying to Kilik that even if he can make his head an AT, he still can't make his heart an AT. However, behind his cool attitude, he even complained for doing a tough job such as when they were fighting Sora and Rika .

Onigiri is a short boy with his head is in the shape of an onigiri (hence the name). He has a black fade haircut and usually wears a jacket and gloves. He's also, like Buccha, rather fat and stubby.

Onigiri is a pervert. He frequently uses his powers to peer through walls into women's bathing area or through their clothes and is frequently characterized as a pig. He has an unusual use for his perspiration, usually during overall perverted moments, to create illusions. He also has a strange way of using his AT by sitting upside down on it (to the chagrin of his female schoolmates whose skirts he tends to look up while doing this). This way of riding has humorously proven in the past to be very dangerous, for both Onigiri and his opponent, as he flails his legs back and forth (doing damage if he's close enough), but can also fall off, landing directly on the point of his head and streaking on the ground until he stops.
However, he is serious when the situation occurs. He truly cares about his team and will do anything for them (unless a pretty woman is involved, he'll ditch them). There's a running gag that whenever he sees a beautiful woman, he goes into a perverted mode and tries to see up their skirts for his enjoyment.
Also for some reason, he can almost speak telepathically through Buccha possibly due to their similar body structure of being fat. They are called the "Pig Brothers".

Rika is a 23-24 year old woman with brownish, red hair. She is 172 cm tall. She has a slender, but solid build. In the OVA, she is shown to have brown hair and dark eyes. Her outfit consists of a light or dark blue shirt over a pink cardigan, light brown or grey pants and white trainers.

Rika is very aggressive towards others, even her own family as (due to her wrestling skills) she does not hesitate to attack anyone who gets on her nerves. Even her sisters and Ikki know how terrifying she can be and all make sure to not get on her bad side. Despite this, she is a very caring sister and loves her family and friends very much and often acts as a mother figure to others.
Rika has shown to have romantic feelings for Sora Takeuchi , in the beginning, the two showed romantic feelings for each other and even kissed on more than one occasion. When Kilik kissed her (due to him having a crush on her and knowing what Sora may do to her), they broke up. Even though they broke up and Sora's perverted nature gets on her nerves and she will attack him like any other person, she still deeply cares for him. Whether or not Rika was aware of his betrayal before she was captured or ever knew what he was like is unknown. They did eventually get back together later on and Rika would be revealed to be pregnant, and Sora is the father.

Rinta has short-cropped, dark hair with stubble on his chin. He wears a scarf and a hat, along with a dark jacket over a plain T-shirt, light colored slacks and sandals. He has letters imprinted onto his fingernails. With Left Hand
Rinta with the flyers containing a poem, Sleeping Forest
ning from his thumb to his ring finger, with a creature, with bat-like wings on his pinky. These letters appear to spell out DEAR DEVIL.

Rinta is a mysterious man and is a very smart scientist, shown by his robot and airplane and his ability to save Gazelle's son. He is referred to "the man who fights the god" since he thinks that the human race had a flaw in its design, that is, not able to fly. He thinks that the human race should be able to fly since small creatures like butterfly can, he also thinks that the god is "always gets in our way when we are trying to fly", and thus he stamps god as "incompetent", showing his arrogance. It is also unknown as to which side he is on, as while he had created Gazelle/Lind and tried saving them, he had also provided Nike with a robotic counterpart of himself, aiding Genesis (although Nike never actually referred to him by name, it is assumed that the robot was provided by Minami), as well as turning Rika Noyamano into a Brain Charger for currently unknown reasons.

Ryō is a tall, curvaceous woman with black hair, grey eyes, and large breasts. In the battle against Kogarasumaru, like her teammates, she wears a white t-shirt and black shorts, which she immediately discards in her fight against Onigiri.  Her undergarment differ between the anime and the manga: in the anime, she wears a red strapless bra and matching panties, and in the manga, she only wears a thong, with the only thing covering up her breasts being a pair of heart-shaped pasties.

Ryō uses "Oshiroibori" (白粉彫り, literally meaning "White Powder Carving") tattoos, which are almost invisible to the naked eye, to hypnotize the opponent to the point that their metabolism slows down so much that it leads to paralysis. She is, however, defeated by Onigiri whose unorthodox style of riding on his head reverses the tattoo effects and makes him more powerful to the point where she submits to him instead. She is very close to Yasuyoshi Sano and may have romantic feelings for him, having known him from their school days, and works under him. She sacrifices herself to save Sano from being killed by Nike; though she is later revealed to be alive but on life-support and held hostage by Genesis in order to force Sano to work for them. Later, it is revealed that Simca saves Ryo.

At the beginning of the series, Simca has very long pink hair. She wears a Tool Toul To hat with goggles, a dress-like long sleeve shirt with a backpack, and short pants.
Before Simca submitted Genesis to Ikki , she cut her long pink hair into shoulder length (on episode 21 of the anime and chapter 83 of the manga) and wears a long tie.
She has very large and soft breasts, as stated by Ikki.
Since Simca cut her hair short, she has worn many different clothes for each of her appearances.
Certain occasions make Simca "The Migratory Bird" to be "featherless", but she does not seem to be bother by it.
As a first-generation Gravity Child , Simca is in her twenties.
in the epilogue, Simca's hair is (almost) long again than at the beginning.

Simca is cheerful, energetic, friendly, polite, care-free, calm, laid-back, and kind towards others. She is always usually friendly towards others and smiles most of the time. She is very caring towards her friends and always tries to help them whenever she can. She also is against the idea of needless bloodshed, such as when she had Behemoth incapacitate the weaker teams so they wouldn't get caught up in the Parts Wars so others won't get killed. She hates when her friends are hurt and is touched by when others try to help anyone who needs help.
Simca is very flirtatious, constantly flirting with Ikki on more than one occasion and even allowing him to see her naked on more than one occasion. This is due to her strong feelings for him (which is later developed into love). She doesn't appear to have much modesty, as she isn't uncomfortable dressing in revealing clothing (though she usually does it to impress Ikki or get his attention) and at points to show off her figure and is confident in her sex appeal.
However, Simca is serious when the situation demands it, such as when her friends' lives are on the line; she doesn't hesitate to assist them in any way. Such as when Gorgon 's body was left in her care, she refused to abandon her at the hands of Drake and fought him to protect her friends. Simca has also shown great bravery on more than one occasion, such as when Nike tried to sexually assault her and tried to kiss her, she played along and showed no fear towards him (though she later broke down terrified of what he did and prayed for Ikki and his team to be safe). After Nike was defeated by Kazu , Simca finally stood up against him and punched him in the face for everything he did and told him he would never be allowed to touch her again.
Surprisingly, Simca has shown quite a strong sense of wisdom for her age, such as giving Ikki and his friend's words of advice and telling Ringo not to keep interfering with Kogarasumaru's fights as they never asked for her help and that Ringo trying to help them would only insult their pride. Even Ringo (albeit reluctantly) admitted she was right. Even Sano has been impressed by her wisdom.
Simca seems to be fond of singing. She sings whenever she feels like it or to encourage others to not give up, such as she sang in the genesis ship to encourage Ikki by trying to inspire him to win his upcoming battle. She is also quite good at her singing.
Like Ikki, Simca loves Air Treck and loves to use it to feel the wind in her hair like she was flying.

Nike and Sora are identical twins, but the siblings have very different appearances, in addition to their similar facial structure. Nike has a different hairstyle. And despite being the youngest twin is taller, bulky and muscular.
As shown in a flashback, 10 years prior to the current storyline, the brothers had a similar build and clothing style.
A prominent part of his present attire is a wing-like cape, which makes him look like either a demon or an angel.
After his loss to Kazu, Nike lost his left foot to Benkei.

Nike appears to be highly mentally unstable and has a deep hatred for the one who took everything away from his brother, the former Gem King Kilik . Nike is cold, cruel and physically stronger of the 2 brothers, and was cruel ever since he was a child.
His ruthlessness is seen when he kills Gravity Children who couldn't keep up in a training session, kicking through Shalott 's body and even almost murdering a young girl ( Princess Sarome ).
Spitfire refers to Nike as a knife made of ice covered in blood, and hoped he could be scorched by the flames of defeat and thus changed into a better person. During his fight with Kazuma Mikura , Kazu remembers how Spitfire urged him not to hate Nike, as Nike was merely under Sora's command. Kazu however found it difficult to comply this request and when he began to beat Nike, Kazu told him to say how bonds and friendships are useless so that Kazu would have no regret killing him.

Nike is unmoved by others

When Nike first viewed the sky after the gravity children escaped the tower, he was scared of it and hid behind Sora, remarking that they've come out to an outrageous place. Sora then comments to him that he's only scared because he doesn't want to lose. He also says "You're worried about falling because you feel you're carrying something, but if you're not carrying anything from the start, you have nothing to be afraid of." This follows up by Nike asking Sora if he can carry him around as well. The two are connected as Nike also allowed Sora to tear off his "wings". Nike stated that his "Wings" are in Sora's hands.
After his loss to Kazu, Nike loses his mind and becomes insane.

Sora is a young man with medium-length scraggly black hair and is usually shown wearing a ballcap. He usually wears a T-shirt and jeans. While early on in the series, he was mostly bound to a wheelchair albeit with one that's customized with Air Trek technology. He has gone on to replace his legs with mechanical ones that are fitted with Air Trecks, allowing him to be able to stand and fight just like he used to. At the time when he was the leader of Sleeping Forest, he often changed his attire, but most of his actual appearance is he always wore an aviator hat with goggles, a blue T-shirt, and folded long pants. He also covered his hands and legs with a bandage. Most of the time he squints, giving the impression that he had his eyes closed.
After his battle with Kilik and Sleeping Forest, his hair turns white possibly due to overexposure in the core reactor at the bottom of the Tower of Trophaeum.

Sora often shows himself as a carefree and charismatic person albeit arrogant about his abilities as a storm rider. At times Sora can be much like Ikki , he can be very perverted and earns beatings from Rika Noyamano for it. He often appears to be easy-going and friendly, but this attitude dramatically changes later in the series to a more serious and cruel tone. He is not above using force to get what he wants, going as far as to force Rika to be brainwashed to join his side.
His lack of remorse is evident such as when he killed Kilik and when he was unfazed by his brother's defeat. Sora views the Gravity Children (most notably Kilik and Sleeping Forest) as pretentious rulers that prevent humanity from reaching its true potential. It is for this reason why, despite being the leader of Genesis, he simply views all members that are Gravity Children as mere tools.
Viewing himself as "defective goods", he empathizes with humans and their constant struggles through everyday life as he also sees humanity as "defective goods". It is this inferiority complex that caused him to adopt a cold personality over time. This is shown as he's willing to kill anyone who stands in his way to gain the power he needs to accomplish his goal of bringing equality upon the world.
Sora believes that the worth of people's souls are determined by the weight of their actions/inactions. He greatly despises those who don't act or those who choose to sit idly. His motivations lie in the fact that he wishes to bring equality to the world in order to witness what he perceives to be the true worth of humanity as a species; whether or not it will bring chaos or ruin due to humanity's flaws is something that he's not concerned about.

In her initial appearance, Om appears as a stocky dwarf with strangely proportioned limbs. In this form, she wears a round mask with a tuft of hair sticking out, a plaid with two white stripes at the back and patterned with the four card suits, and A·T on all four limbs. It is later revealed that the outlandish garb is a costume designed to mislead Om's opponents; it is fitted with an array of surveillance devices she uses to eavesdrop on people.

Akame ga Kill!

Air had long, pink hair with her bangs hanging just above her pink eyes. She wore a pink raincoat with a matching hat and boots.

Air was a kind girl who cared about her friends a lot, even going as far as asking Night Raid to avenge them after they were killed. She also seemed somewhat shy. She apparently had enough mental fortitude to formulate a revenge plan against the men who were responsible for her friends' death, despite going through torture and humiliation herself.


Akame ga Kill!

Akame is a beautiful girl with red eyes. Her hair is long and black and reaches down to her knees.
Akame wears a dark sleeveless top with a white collar and a red tie; she wears a red belt that has a red side skirt cover over a black, pleated skirt. She wears it with long black socks and black shoes. She also wears red gauntlets and black gloves. She sometimes wears a long dark coat in battle. She is often seen carrying her Teigu, Murasame . After activating Murasame's trump card, she has faded red scars all over her body.
In Soukai , Akame wears a short, black yukata with a white sash outside wartime. During wartime, she wears her usual dark, sleeveless dress.

Akame appears to be a very serious and cold-hearted person which stems from her hellish training that the Empire forced her and her sister through, but it is eventually revealed that she is just socially awkward. She cares about her comrades very much and she is always worried that one of them may not make it out alive due to her first-hand experience that war always has a high mortality rate. After Tatsumi fought Ogre , she stripped him of his clothes to check his body for wounds and Akame rushes to Mt. Kageboshi to aid Hinata who was about to be killed by Yomihime .
She also tends to hide her emotions when it is revealed that a comrade dies, such as seen with Sheele , making Tatsumi mistakenly and incorrectly assume that she deals with it easily, because she is used to it. However, this prompts her to break into tears saying that she can never be fine when she loses a friend, for it is the most horrible thing of which anyone can experience. She is then comforted by Tatsumi who resolves to not die and never let her experience such pain again, making her smile.
Upon facing her enemies, however, she shows absolutely no mercy towards them shouting words such as "eliminate" and "consign" to show the lack of mercy she has and also to strengthen her resolve to kill them. After donning Murasame's curse, she barely said such words.
Akame loves to eat and is surprisingly known to be a big eater (she usually prefers meat from Danger Beasts and fish), much like her sister Kurome . She is passionate about food to the point that Sheele noted how the "usually cool" Akame turned mad when she had burned some meat. Additionally, she is usually in charge of cooking the base's meals.
Akame is a person that refuses to take command and refuses promotion unless she was mandated to do so. She takes command of Elite Seven temporarily when Najasho is absent and she takes command of Night Raid 's operations when Najenda is away to the Revolutionary Army's Headquarters because she was mandated to takes charge to do so. During her Campaign at Soukai, she refuses promotion to Captain and Ninja by Maruge since she can move freely as a Foot Soldier under Hinata 's Command after Battle of Shiranui Fortress.


Akame ga Kill!

Ammateru has long black hair that reaches her back that is tied. She wears two-piece clothing.

She's shown to have a strong sense of loyalty to her king, country and comrades, and at first is shown to be a kind and sensitive woman seeing as how she comforted her fellow general Yomihime about her defeat and failure to capture Soukai, and loss of her underling, Kyoukotsu, and even shed tears at his death and lamented the loss of his potential he could have brought to their country,she also displayed a vengeful side seeing as how she immediately wanted to plan how to avenge his death with Yomihime. Like the rest of her comrades and country men she's displayed a rather violent and nonchalant disregard for life, seeing as how she casually explained/showed how she severed two severed heads into two halves then knitted them together, before casually showing off  her handywork.


Akame ga Kill!

Amuria was a young woman with long dark-colored hair. She wore a revealing light-colored shirt with decorations on the shoulders along with a miniskirt, and a hair accessory in a form of a small hat.

Arathi was a tall, muscular man with long, light hair, wore a headband and markings on his face. He wore a long scarf and a black jacket. When using the Gravekeepers' secret arts, he gained monstrous nails and long, porcupine-like quills extending from his hair.

Arathi was a sadistic man, enjoying playing with his opponents. This was noted to be his downfall.
