Minami is a teenage girl with unknown height and weight. She has gray eyes, short brownish hair that reaches down the nape of her neck and thin eyebrows.
She is mostly seen wearing the standard Sobu High uniform. She is seen wearing pink earrings and purple nail polish on her fingernails at the summer fireworks festival.

On the surface, Minami appears as an innocent, clever, and unassuming girl, but she only puts up this facade for attention. Being the leader of the second most influential clique in her classroom, Minami is proud, has a large ego, and is rather pompous. It was revealed that she relies on her group to improve her own popularity and nothing more.
Underneath these characteristics, Minami lacks confidence in her own abilities, letting others dote on her except for Hachiman, and others who are able to see Minami for who she truly is. According to Hachiman, Minami has too much arrogance and pride to admit her mistakes or confess when she is wrong, and will instead badmouth and blame others for her problems to cover up her uselessness. She is emotionally weak and can be easily reduced to tears with words alone. She is also easily manipulated by others such as Haruno or Hayama, people she looks up to.
The cultural festival was a traumatic incident for Minami due to Hachiman's harsh criticism and her realization of her own shortcomings. She feels inferior to Yukino and tries to hide from her problems.
After the athletic festival, there are hints that she has had a change in personality, but she is rarely mentioned after this point in the story.


My Youth Romantic Comedy Is Wrong, As I Expected

Meguri is good-looking girl with curly shoulder-length brown hair that is worn in twin braids, her fringe is cut short and parted to the left side of her face that is donned with three pink hair clips, two on the right, one on the left and grayish eyes.
She is usually seen wearing the school uniform.

Meguri is a cheerful, out-going, optimistic and team-spirited girl who always tries her best and acts positive. Although she is great with people and pretty smart, she exudes an airheaded but comfortable aura which attracts almost all of the student body support. She listens to everyone's opinions. She gets along with every one without any discomfort or conflicts.


In the anime, Tamanawa is seen wearing the uniform of Kaihin Sougou High School that is composed of a white dress shirt, a light blue sweater with two dark blue lines at the top, and a red tie under a navy blue blazer and pants.

Tamanawa is a somewhat pompous ( affectedly and irritatingly grand, solemn, or self-important ) person who often uses complex English words in some of his sentences. Hachiman Hikigaya observed that he uses many similar meaning words (synonyms) in English and Japanese in quick succession.
Hachiman and Yukino Yukinoshita note he just likes to be in charge and lacks any real ideas or convictions.
Hachiman also feels that neither Tamanawa or any other student council members wanted to take full responsibility of the Christmas concert because of a fear of failure. Tamanawa comes across as really indecisive and unable to manage time well.
He seems a little dense or stubborn, when Hachiman tries using Tamanawa's own lingo to progress the Christmas Collaboration meetings he still wouldn't commit to anything. It's not until Yukino directly addresses his inability to act do they start to get things done.
Although Tamanawa won't commit to any one idea for the Christmas Event, he is eager to involve and please as many people as possible. Indicating a rather sociable side as he happily welcomes new members such as Hachiman, Yukino, Yui, and the elementary school students.
Tamanawa is likely a popular figure in his school, since he was elected as president of student council. He also managed to recruit his own friends like Kaori Orimoto to come and help.
By the time Hachiman and Yui Yuigahama approach him regarding Hachiman's mock prom, Tamanawa has mostly matured from his reliance on complex yet meaningless words, taking Hachiman (who has prepared for a conversation filled with complex words) aback.


Tobe is a good-looking teenage boy with dyed-brown long hair with a black hairband, grey eyes and is usually seen in school uniform. He wears a sweater underneath his school jacket during the winter.

Tobe is a happy and excitable person who cares for his friends and generally helpful to others. He is enthusiastic for all things he does and likes to improve. As mentioned by himself, he tries to be popular. He admits to being envious of others more skilled than he is and often praises Hayato Hayama .
According to Hayato, Tobe bleached hair might make him look like a bad guy, but he's the best at getting everyone energized. He always gets involved at the school festival and the sports festival. Because of that, Hayato believes he is a nice person though in Yukino 's opinion, he is an easily excited person whose only talent is making noise.

Tobe excitedly cutting logs at Chiba Village summer camp.

According to Yukino, he is noisy and annoying though to Yui , he is more or less just talkative. However, Hachiman corrects her that he likes to talk about himself. Which is apparently true for most cases. During the Chiba Village summer camp arc, he initiated the conversation of their crushes just to express his liking of Hina . He also loudly stated his desire for valentine chocolate.
He is also fond of children. At Chiba Village summer camp, he enjoyed helping the elementary school children cooking curry. Furthermore, he despised threatening Rumi 's classmates for Hachiman's plan.


Saika has a soft, feminine appearance, and on occasion is mistaken as a female. Hachiman sometimes "forgets" that Totsuka is a boy. He has short, light grey/silver hair, large, sparkling blue eyes, and light skin tone. He is seen wearing his gym uniform throughout most of the series, often accompanied by his tennis racket, a towel around his neck or both.
In the anime, his outfit consists of a dark and light green sports jacket, similar colored shorts with black knee length tights underneath, and wears a V-neck shirt that is long sleeved and a lighter shade of green in color.
In the manga, his shorts are slightly longer and his undershorts are not visible.
In the light novels, his clothes are exactly the same as in the anime, except his jacket is initially light blue and changes into green later in the novels, and his undershirt is short sleeved with a blue collar and is white.
He also wears a black bracelet on his right wrist.

Saika has a soft and kind demeanor, as well as a feminine appearance, which causes Hachiman on multiple occasions to "forget" Saika is a boy. Because of his feminine characteristics, most girls in the school call him "prince". This personality often causes his comrades and teammates to pursue victory in athletics or tennis. In contrast to his outward appearance, he is trying to be manly as possible, and doesn't like when his gender is mistaken.
He is kind and loving to everyone. He is able to get along with everyone without any hard feelings. He is bashful and often shown blushing, especially to Hachiman. He is peaceful and doesn't like creating or being involved in conflicts. (for example, when Miura wanted to use the tennis court, he didn't say anything.)


Rumi is considered to be a very cute and pretty girl (by Yumiko Miura ) with long dark hair and black/grey eyes. Hachiman Hikigaya considers her to be a trendy dresser, indicating her fashion sense, but he notes it may have just been her parents.
Rumi is seen as a miniature Yukino Yukinoshita , both in looks and the way she carries herself.

Rumi is a quiet and calm girl who tends to be a loner where she is very observational and very mature compared to others her age.
She herself mentioned she would bully other girls with her classmates, but only because everyone else did it. They would get bored after a while and pick a new girl to bully. However at some point they started picking on Rumi and haven't moved on.
Hachiman Hikigaya and Yui Yuigahama feel that Rumi is similar to Yukino Yukinoshita as someone who is aloof and independent. However, Yukino says Rumi reminds her of Yui. Someone who is trying to fit in and cooperate with everyone.
Hayato Hayama , Yumiko Miura and Komachi Hikigaya consider Rumi as a cold and unfriendly person. But, Rumi is shown to have a kind personality as she saved her peers who bullied her. She often does things on her own without relying on anyone. In this regard she is like Hachiman, someone that considers their own presence a hindrance to others and that staying away is the nice thing to do.
It was shown during the Christmas collaboration event that her personality is slightly Tsundere, this can be seen when she mentions she can "do it by herself" when making Christmas decorations, but was shocked when Hachiman was about to leave her on her own ( Season 2 Episode 10 ).


Yamato is very tall. In the anime, he is shown to be taller than Hayato and broad-shouldered. He has dark brown hair and eyes.

According to Hayato , he is levelheaded, calm, and good at listening, a chill guy who puts people at ease by not saying much and being the silent, caring type. Because of that, Hayato believes he is a good guy.
However, Yamato is shown to laugh loudly when jokes are told at other people's expense, which is not the "silent, caring type."
However, in Yukino 's opinion, he is not only slow-witted but incapable of making his own decisions.
Ebina considers him "self-assured", although this is according to her yaoi fantasies.
Hachiman considers him an indecisive dimwit.


Yui's appearance varies from book to book. When first introduced, she is described to have loose, shoulder length chestnut-brown hair that would sway when she walked. She is also mentioned to not follow the dress code, wearing her skirt short, the top three buttons of her shirt undone, and a heart charm on a gleaming necklace.
Later, her hair is shown to be usually worn in a loose side bun.
In the anime, Yui has fair skin, light orange hair that is almost always seen with a loose side bun, and peach-reddish eyes. She is mostly seen wearing the standard school uniform: a black blazer with a white collared shirt underneath, a red ribbon tie, and plaid skirt. She wears her tie loose, sometimes omits the tie and blazer, and has the top buttons of her blouse undone. She also wears black knee high socks.
During the fireworks festival, she wears a pale-pink yukata with a flower pattern and tied with a large crimson sash as well as wooden geta sandals.

Yui is a cheerful and outgoing girl. She's very optimistic, hardly sad or upset - and even when she is, she has a smile on her face. She has stated that she always wants to fit in, and that disagreeing with friends brings her anxiety - however, things change as she joins the club, with her learning to really be herself thanks to Hachiman and Yukino, who are naturally less diplomatic and more blunt. Hachiman initially describes her as the typical good looking, dumb, popular type, but is later proven to be wrong. While she can be naive, she's overall intelligent, and her social skills are her strongest point.
She has a friendly attitude to mostly everyone around her and usually ends up befriending them. She is not all deterred by those who are initially dismissive of her kindness, such as Hachiman Hikigaya and Yukino Yukinoshita , even after both criticized her. She has nicknamed the two, "Hikki" and "Yukinon" respectively, which both dislike at first but eventually accept as normal. She has nicknames for almost everyone and even asks for people to give her her own nickname during her birthday party.
She is an expert at reading the mood and adjusting herself to it. Because of this, she often hides her true opinion and states what others want to hear in order for things to go smoothly. Yui's very sensitive to the politics of the class. She's known as the "glue" of Hayato's clique, as she is always the one providing the energy and friendliness. She dislikes being a disturbance.
She admires both Yukino and Hachiman for being blunt and their willingness to share their opinions no matter how harsh they may be. Yui has stated their honesty, straightforwardness, and independence are the reasons she joined the Service Club. After her experience with the Service Club, she was able to speak her mind a bit more, showing how much she developed socially. While she still remains naturally people-oriented, Yui has now become more able to be who she is, and to recognize who true friends are. For example, though she and Yumiko are in the same group, due to the latter's domineering, arrogant and bossy nature, she has initially trouble telling her she becomes friends with social outcasts like Yukino and Hachiman, but later on she loses this trait.
Due to Yui's personality and appearance, she gets hit on by the male student population, but gets away by using Yumiko as an escape route. [1] Though Yui is both cute and social, she is mentioned having no boyfriend as most boys believe that they can't land a date with her, choosing to give up as stated by Tobe.
She can be very determined when she sets her mind to something, demonstrated when she decides to run for student council, as well as when she forces the events of Volume 11 to happen.
In her guidance counseling survey, Yui wrote she wants to get along with everyone and wished to be friends with everyone even after graduating.


Haruno is a beautiful young woman with shoulder-length black hair (the tips of her hair are dyed purple in the second season) and angular blue eyes (rose eyes in the second season).
She first appears wearing small heart earrings and a large beaded necklace. Her dress was made of white flowing material and fluttery lace. [3]
In the anime, her earrings are small dangling triangles and she wears almost the same outfit.
She is also known to wear a knitted cardigan and white blouse along with a long skirt on casual occasions. On other occasions, she wears a red coat along with a scarf.
Hachiman Hikigaya considered her strikingly similar in appearance to Yukino Yukinoshita . She is described as having a radiant, tidy, and glamorous appearance as well as being exceptionally good looking. Due to her elegance and beauty, Hachiman states that she can be easily pointed out among the rough Chiba crowd.
During the fireworks festival, she wears a dark blue yukata emblazoned with giant lilies and autumn grass.

Haruno presents a warm attitude towards others, even if she has to lie about her true feelings most of the time to keep up her persona.
Haruno is an exceptional people person, able to greet, work with, or manipulate those around her. She is the eldest of the two Yukinoshita sisters and therefore has to maintain a cheerful facade when representing the family for either their father's political events or mother's business meetings.
According to Hayato Hayama , she will meddle so much with what she likes to the point of killing it. For the things she hates, she’d go the extra mile to crush them.
She is known to have a sinister side to her evident by the fact that she talks with a voice which is described by Hachiman as cold, piercing and emotionless. She is also known to question the genuineness of various things in life. [citation needed]
She genuinely cares for Yukino Yukinoshita (Haruno's younger sister) and respects Mrs. Yukinoshita (Haruno's mother). However, Haruno often meddles in Yukino's affairs out of love and concern or just for her own pleasure. Later in the series she reveals she is envious of the freedom that Yukino has, since she, as the oldest sibling, has to do everything their parents demand.
She aimlessly travels during her days-off. Hachiman Hikigaya noticed that, for a college student she seems to have too much time and money on her hands. Haruno brushes it off as her just being "exceptional". [citation needed]


Yukino is a beautiful teenage girl of average height and slim build. She has fair skin, long black hair that spills over her shoulders and down to her hips, and an ahoge that lays flat atop her head. Adorning her hair are two red ribbons just above each shoulder. Her most striking feature is a pair of large, piercing blue eyes.
Yukino is mainly seen in her school uniform: a black blazer with a white shirt, a red ribbon tie, and a plaid skirt. With her uniform she wears black thigh high stockings that are embellished with white stripes, and is sometimes seen with a blue scarf in winter. She occasionally wears a pair of blue-light blocking glasses, given to her by Hachiman, while working on a computer.

Yukino is prideful, talented and extremely smart, but has a tendency to be blunt and point out faults in other people without consideration. She believes that it is the duty of the "exceptional" (a.k.a. herself) to help the less fortunate, which Hachiman Hikigaya refers to as her twisted nobility. In the beginning she has a very cold and unfriendly demeanor, earning her the nickname of Ice Queen, although this changes with her character development as she genuinely becomes kinder and friendlier.
Her personality can be seen as exceedingly haughty to some people. Despite this, she still attempts to understand other people and is kind and compassionate in her own twisted way; she's also better than Hachiman at understanding the emotional side of other people. According to Hachiman, she is peerless in skills and personality.

Yukino agitated for pointing out her flat chest

On a more personal level, Yukino hates to be pointed out to have a smaller chest than other female characters. She always tries to maintain an elegant and dignified appearance, which is strongly evident when she covered her laughter after Hachiman had presented his cultural festival slogan.
Yukino is a competitive person, willing to win any competition officially and unofficially to prove herself. There are a number of examples of this in the series, such as when she accepted Shizuka Hiratsuka 's challenge when asked if she was afraid of losing. Her main driving force is her wish to surpass her sister, going as far as doing what her sister had done in order to show that she could do it just as well.

Yukino in Destiny Land
Despite all of this, Yukino's icy exterior slowly fades throughout the series, revealing her vulnerable side to those close to her. She is a big fan of Pan-san , a panda character. She even has the real manuscript of the story and its stuffed toy, which Hachiman finds surprising.
Yukino also showed her "cold face" when Yumiko expressed her idea of Pan-san not being cute. She also asked her friends to be quiet in time of Pan-san bamboo fight. Her obsession for Pan-san is known by both Yui Yuigahama and Hachiman. Yukino is almost always attracted to spots were Pan-san is displayed. Despite her efforts to hide her love for Pan-san, she occasionally slips up and show the fan side of her.

Yukino in souvenir shop

Yukino is also fond of cats and anything cat-related. This is shown throughout the anime series and was focused greatly in the Light novels. She even meowed with Hachiman's cat, Kamakura , causing him to ask her about it in a tone that suggested that he was dubious of her sanity. In Drama CD, it was mentioned by Haruno Yukinoshita that Yukino has a hobby of hugging her Pan-san doll and watches cat videos on her computer. Another instance was during a visit at the aquarium, where she was deeply intrigued by the catsharks due to the word "cat" being in their name.

Yukino meowing with Kamakura

According to Hachiman, she attracts airheads (Yui and Komachi ) and most boys. Even though she doesn't lie, she sometimes beats around the bush of the topics.
Despite her calm and reserved demeanor, Yukino has a somewhat frightening side. Hachiman describes that she emits an "evil aura" when she is seriously angry and expressing her loathing about a certain individual. This can be seen when she expressed her opinion on chain messages senders and the belief that they should be eliminated . It should be noted that she made certain individuals like Sagawa and Shimoda expelled from during her middle school due to chain messages harassment directed to her. She even claimed that she would crush her enemies face-to-face.
Another incident was when Hachiman asked her for meowing with Kamakura session. She admonished Hachiman in a way that made Hachiman felt if he spoke another word, she would kill him on the spot. At Chiba Village summer camp, she had a serious argument with Yumiko which reduced the latter to tears.The same was witnessed by Yui and Hachiman when Iroha Isshiki questions of the rumors of Hayama and Yukino.
Yukino sometimes blushes in front of Hachiman, who occasionally sees her excited over little things like going to Destiny Land. In spite of all her "perfections", she is incredibly bad at directions as pointed out by Hachiman.
Ultimately, despite her massive pride and her initially cold and haughty demeanor, Yukino is very kind and selfless, and has a genuinely good heart. She's a person who is always ready to help everyone in need, even the ones she doesn't know and the ones who mistreat her.


Zaimokuza has an unusual appearance. He has grey/white hair that he keeps in a short ponytail, brown or black eyes and glasses.
In the anime he is shown to be one of the tallest characters and slightly overweight. He wears a trench-coat over his school uniform, along with black fingerless gloves even when it is during the summer months and because of this, they cause him to be almost always sweaty, even during the winter.

Zaimokuza is considered to be weird, gross and creepy by the majority of the Sobu High, even more so than Hachiman Hikigaya.
He is a very eccentric character, getting incredibly excited over things he enjoys, particularly anything related to his 8th grader syndrome. He displays a high interest in historical shoguns, magic, and writing (despite the fact he is a terrible writer), and video game creation. He often talks like a movie narrator or with grandiose overtones. He sometimes refers to himself and those around him in the 3rd person and involves them in his fantasy/roleplaying scenarios. His dream is to become a famous light novel author or movie writer and marry a voice actress. [1]
His devotion to writing a novel is often mentioned in the light novels. He also behaves like a professional and famous novel writer, despite the fact he has no accomplishments. During the Cultural Festival his script was used for his class play. He briefly considered being a creative game writer, until he found out the company would own all the rights to his work. [2]
He is quite easy going, being able to bounce back from being criticized by Yukino and Hachiman, and still display his enthusiasm for writing, which Hachiman refers to as a "writer's syndrome".
He is quiet, sensitive, and jealous, especially whenever Hayato or other popular people are around. He also struggles talking to girls.
He, like Hachiman, is mostly a loner and feels most at home around other loners. He is known to have many acquaintances around the arcades in Chiba, but has few friends.


Ooka is shorter than most other characters in the series. He has brown hair and brown eyes. He is usually seen wearing the standard Sobu uniform.

According to Hayato , he is easy to get along with, always helping other people out, and always polite and respectful to his elders and his juniors. Because of that Hayato believes he is a nice person. But Yukino feels that he is an opportunist who worries about his reputation. Furthermore, he can be insensitive sometimes, as he burst out laughing when Tobe belittles Hachiman , which is the opposite of Hayato's positive descriptions of him. Hachiman describes him to be a virgin because he acts similarly awkwardly when the topic of sex comes up.


He is a white and grey cat. The tips of his ears and tail are black. He wears a blue collar.
His appearance in season 2 changes. Kamakura is no longer a mostly white, fat cat, but instead a grey striped lean feline that bears a resemblance to the American wirehair.

Kamakura is a typical lazy cat. He avoids contact with the energetic dog Sable .


My-Otome

Fumi is a young woman with fair skin, green eyes and pink hair. Her attire is a dark pink maid dress under a white apron with a white petticoat, cuffs, a collar with a black bow and a crimson brooch, light black cotton tights and black Mary Jane shoes.


My-Otome

He wears a white shirt and usually puts his hands in his trouser pockets. He also often carries a book or balances it on his head; in the final episode, just before disappearing, he gives the book to Fumi, and it is revealed to bear the words "Fuka Academy" on its cover.


My-Otome

She has semi-length black hair. Her HiME mark is on her upper right arm. [2]


My-Otome

Yayoi is a female teen with brown eyes and purple hair that is to shoulders length.


Myriad Colors Phantom World

Haruhiko's mother is shown to be of average build for a woman her age with long black hair styled into a ponytail and blue eyes. She's shown to wear a white shirt complemented by a pink blouse with a pink rose on the left side along with a light beige dress that goes past her knees.

She's shown to be very soft-spoken at first, but when around Haruhiko, she becomes hesitant but is very caring and compassionate.


Mysterious Girlfriend X

Hayakawa is a petite, attractive teenage girl, originally with long, waist length jet-black hair, that Tsubaki has known since they were both in middle ( Jr. High ) school. She is somewhat short, but has an almost perfect 'Barbie Doll' body size and shape. She has a round face, big 'anime girl' oval eyes of a medium lavender color, and a creamy, even beige skin tone. She now has short jet-black hair with dark gray highlights, and wears it in a Beatles mop cut. She has a medium size bust, but it looks larger given her smaller chest frame. She has short arms and small hands, short but lean and trim legs.
Hayakawa has always dressed and groomed herself in the 'kawaii' ( super cute ) fashion style, and was very popular in middle school with the boys because of that. She is most often seen wearing her high school uniform of that of a young professional woman's business suit, consisting of a dress blouse, a tie, a business jacket, a mini-skirt, and black knee-high socks. For casual wear, she wears the latest, hottest high class fashion for teen girls. Sometimes dressed provocatively, she always makes an impression of style and class wherever she goes. Throughout her teen/tween years, by her fashion style and appearance, Aika Hayakawa has reached the remarkable achievement of the almost impossible fashion and social accomplishment of simultaneously presenting herself as stunningly cute, hardcore sweetness, and with a very noticeably surreal, innocent demure and appearance, but also coming off as stunningly edgy, hardcore sexy, and with a very noticeably surreal, erotic demure and appearance, both at school, and out in public. She now attends an all-girls high school, but still maintains her well groomed, tasteful, and professional looking fashion style. She was initially long-haired, but in Anime Episode 10 / Manga Chapter 28 she meets Tsubaki once again, and shows off a new hairstyle wherein she has cut her hair short.
However, at Hayakawa's Hoshinome Cultural Festival , wherein she meets Tsubaki, who is to pretend to be her boyfriend, she wears an exact duplicate of her middle school jumper dress school uniform, and has a long, black wig, so that she looks exactly as she did a few years ago. Finally, it is confirmed that Hayakawa has an almost perfect 'teenage fashion model' body size and shape, when Tsubaki and Urabe both see her unclothed, as part of a very combative challenge game of 'Do or Die' / 'Put Up or Shut Up' that she participates in with Urabe in an empty, unused classroom, during the Hoshinome Cultural Festival . Later at the Cultural Festival, she again dons her middle school female school uniform, and when Seo sees her, he is quite taken aback by Hayakawa presenting herself to him with her 'little girl' cuteness, attractiveness and sweet innocence.

To everyone else, Hayakawa is a pleasant, popular middle school and high school student, who enjoys life and loves to socialize with friends and have fun. However, Hayakawa, inside, has low self-esteem and little self-confidence in her abilities. Although socially active, and the center of many boy's attention, she actually finds it difficult to form any kind of close and personal relationships. She has been interested in several boys, but all of her efforts to express her love and affection towards them have turned out to be unrequited love. This leads her to often feel lonely and dejected, and will seek out anyone she can try to talk to and trust. As such, and since Tsubaki had a crush on her, she also hoped to restart a relationship with him, when Tsubaki told her that he still was single. Plus Tsubaki told her that he did not have a girlfriend, when in fact he was already in a relationship with Urabe. She is not afraid to let her frustrations out and seek comfort when she is with Tsubaki. However, she has a very possessive personality, and is not below using jealously, deceit, and deception to entice a boy to want to help her and do her bidding.
When Hayakawa's school has the Cultural Festival , she even stoops to faking a bruise to trick Tsubaki to pretend to be her boyfriend for a day, and setting it up so Urabe will come to the school's summer festival during that same day. Hayakawa wanted to separate Tsubaki from Urabe, long enough to, once again, attempt a Drool Bond with him. She also wanted to spite the boy that she had shipped with into shame and regret, not to mention her wanting to be 'ticking off' Urabe. However, at the festival, things do not go as Hayakawa had planned. Hayakawa is then forced to show her true competitive and combative nature, held in reserve until now, when she and Urabe go head-to-head in a battle to gain Tusbaki's attention and admiration, even literally 'baring all' of herself to do so. The somewhat disappointing outcome of hers leads her to reconsider her relationship with a former unrequited love interest, named Seo , and after forming a drool bond with him, the two begin shipping again with one another on a whole new, deeper intimate level. Hayakawa finally has what she yearned for all this time, a boyfriend, Seo, and girlfriend, Urabe, both of them having a socially intimate relationship with her, founded on a Drool Bond.
Another note about her personality is that she and Tsubaki have similar quirks and behavior, which is why he developed a crush on her to begin with. At the moment, she studies at the Hoshinome Girls' Academy , which is a girls-only business oriented high school.


Mysterious Girlfriend X

Akria Tsubaki is of average height and build. He is a tad shorter than his girlfriend Urabe, which may contribute to his apprehensiveness when around her. He has a somewhat rounded face, with black,slightly spiky hair having brown highlights. He has big eyes for a male, but with narrow, dark brown pupils. He has an even medium to tan skin tone all over. Despite his shyness, Tsubaki has an attractive, slender body shape, giving him a pseudo-athletic look to the casual onlooker. Always dressed casual, his fashion sense is limited to shirt and pants, or shirt and shorts in hot weather. At home, his older sister takes care of his wardrobe, and reminds him to always take care of himself in all matters. When out in public with his girlfriend, Urabe, the contrast between a plain-looking boy and a cute, mysterious, strangely erotic girl does not go without notice.

Tsubaki is a fairly normal high school boy and shows very few remarkable traits. Due to Urabe's intimidating scissors skills and quirky personality, he can be somewhat timid and indirect around her, taking a while to ask a simple question. Often when he has been able to muster the courage to ask something, he is likely to give up without much of a fight for fear of being accosted by Urabe. He can be very romantic though, with most of his thoughts revolving around how to get closer to, or how to impress, Urabe.
He starts the series with many conventional thoughts about relationships, wanting to hold Urabe's hand, kiss her, take her picture, etc. As Urabe does not care for these conventional things, he's usually discouraged, intimidated, or shot down.
In general Tsubaki is thoughtful and kind, often putting others before himself. He cares for his family and male friends and often worries about their problems, whether they are his fault or not. He also has a jealous side and hates the idea of anyone other than himself looking at Urabe as an object of attraction. However, he can sometimes have trouble handling his lust, or his embarrassment, when other girls come on to him. He can be quite naive as well, unable to realize that Urabe has switched places with a different girl for several days.
While he can't remember his mother, his sister reveals that he would cry whenever he saw a picture of his mother in the house. Since then, Tsubaki has had all pictures of her hidden from him, with only one kept hidden from him.

Tsubaki is a fan of science fiction, as can be seen by the poster above his desk in his bedroom for the 2001: A Space Odyssey film . He also seems to remember his many dreams after his meeting Urabe for the first time in class, sometimes with much detail. All of his dreams occur in a strange, bizarre city called the City of Dreams . Because of that ability, he will many times meditate on what the dreams might mean, and how the dreams may relate to his attraction to Urabe.
In the anime, Tsubaki is more accepting of Urabe's strange ways in the beginning. This can be seen when he takes Urabe's photo and when they first hold hands. He even musters up the courage to address Urabe by her first name, Mikoto, although she is half asleep when he does so. In both these situations in the manga he reluctantly accepts the somewhat dubious outcome of his attempts at shipping, but in the anime he's much happier to have these moments with Urabe.


Mysterious Girlfriend X

Of the four teenagers that are friends of one another, Ueno is the tallest of them, being a little taller than Tsubaki. His body build is somewhat thin and muscular, however, he is not especially athletic. He is of average weight for a slender teenage male. Ueno has short chocolate brown hair, worn in a mop cut, and chocolate brown eyes. His skin tone is a slightly dark, tan shade, with an even blend. He has an angular face, with a mildly chiseled jawline. He is always seen wearing glasses.
Aside from wearing the male school uniform to school, Ueno always wears casual outfits, mostly pants and shirts. His fashion sense is bland at best, making him one who never stands out in a crowd. However, when he is with Oka, his girlfriend, who is very short, they do make an interesting couple because of the noticeable difference in their heights. That, and the fact he dresses so commonplace, whereas Oka dresses somewhat provocative, sexy, and alluring out in public, they are quite a contrast in fashion styles.

Kouhei Ueno is Akria Tsubaki 's friend and Ayuko Oka's boyfriend. When Tsubaki first walked in on him and Oka kissing in an empty classroom at school, Ueno asked him to keep their relationship a secret, as Ueno is rather apprehensive about it. He magnanimously helps Tsubaki by providing advice about romantic relationships, and sometimes bragging about his relationship with Oka, unaware that Tsubaki is already in a relationship with Urabe. But when he finally finds out that Tsubaki and Urabe are shipping together, he seems to approve, because he realizes that Oka and himself are more advanced in their relationship than Urabe and Tsubaki.
Ueno has an overall mild personality, but has a definite, noticeable jealousy streak, especially with regard to Oka. Ueno is shown to be very jealous of Oka, and doesn't like the idea of taking her to the beach, since she prefers to wear a very sexy, reveling cream-colored bikini swimsuit. When on dates together, or when she is with Urabe, Oka also likes to dress in casual clothes that are a bit too daring and provocative for Ueno, subsequently, he also tries to keep some of his sanity by suggesting that she dress in more conservative styles, in order to avoid other boys from supposedly flirting with her.
Ueno does acceptable academic work at school, but his heart is not really into learning and education. More suited to being a 'party animal' and a fun sort of guy, Ueno spends a good deal of time on his favorite activities and hobbies, one being video games, instead of school homework. Many times Oka sees the need to tutor him so that he does not fall behind in school work, or start to fail his classes. However, Ueno sees the tutoring sessions as a chance to try and 'make out' with Oka, instead of doing any real studying.


Mysterious Girlfriend X

Like Urabe, Momoka has an average sized body for a typical teenage girl. However, her body has developed into a mature, erotic, adult-like figure and appearance. She is somewhat thin, but not lanky, and has a proper weight for her body size and shape. She has a round face with a slightly pointed chin. Momoka has huge 'anime girl' eyes. Her eyes are narrow and vertically oval, with a dark greenish-brown color. Her hair is milk chocolate brown, with golden and dark chocolate brown highlights. She has an average neck, but narrow shoulders. Her bust size is smaller than Urabe's, but unlike Urabe's, is of a 'muffin top' shape, just like that of a tween girl. She has a narrow waist, really shown off by her bare-midriff stage costumes. Momoka has long, lean, shapely legs, well developed by use of them for the high-kicks. She has average feet. Her small hands seem much larger when she wears gloves and handles the wireless mic at her concerts.
Momoka wears a wide verity of fashion styles and outfits, with many of them giving off a sexy, erotic appearance. On the day that she meets Tsubaki and Urabe, she is wearing a colorful, skull logo polo shirt, a pleated, plaid, mirco mini-skirt, black knee-high socks, and athletic shoes. Another time Momoka wears a striped, V neck, mini-hemlined T-shirt dress. Now because the two girls are the same body size and shape ( except for the bust size ), that means that Momoka can wear Urabe's female high school uniform ( she does ! ), and Urabe can wear Momoka's rock star stage outfits and costumes ( she does, with some allowance for her larger bust ! ) !

For all her popularity and notoriety, Momoka is still very much an ordinary girl, who like most teenage girls, has at this point in their life many good points about their personality, but a few bad traits, too.
Momoka is very impetuous. She sometimes acts rashly, without thinking things through, or giving people the benefit of the doubt, or a chance to defend themselves. As soon as the male passenger and herself got off the train, she gave him a high-kick to the head without any warning, or without any time to sort things out as to just what happened. The guy was probably a pedophile anyway, but Momoka wasn't about to delay any retribution to him, given this streak in her personality. Now one knows why she has to wear leg restraints, because this gives her a chance to hopefully think before releasing and offering up a high-kick.
Being a Rock Star and Singing Idol, Momoka is also a bit self-centered. She, for the most part, enjoys performing on stage, and does so on her own terms, but she also yearns to be a "normal girl", and focuses her attention on that possibility, even if it might be a selfish motive. This yearning for a different life leads Momoka to be devious at times, tricking people as to her true nature. She wanted so bad to experience the Drool Bond that Urabe and Tsubaki enjoys, even if she is not sensitive to drool, such that she resorts to trickery to get to do it with Tsubaki. This also shows that Momoka is conflicted in her heart and soul, indecisive about her life's course of action, that of an Idol who is a celebrity out in public, or that of an ordinary but cute high school girl who never stands out in public.
Momoka has good qualities, too. She is appreciative of what friends and other do for her, at least to some degree. For as much as Urabe has done for her, she seems to value her offers of help, even if not all of them are what Momoka wants. Although in need of more work and adjustments, her sense of fairness is seen when she was willing to go back to her career as an Idol, even though she would more likely want to stay as a high school girl, wear the female school uniform, and go to school every day so as to interact and have real friendship with both boys and girls.


Mysterious Girlfriend X

Suwano is of average body size and shape, a bit husky however, and a bit taller than Tsubaki. She has very pleasant features, a somewhat angular face, with a slightly pointed chin. Her hair is a deep, dark semi-sweet chocolate brown, worn parted on one side of her head, and styled to be falling straight down to just below her shoulder blades, giving her a regal  'princess'  look. The most telling aspect and noticeable feature of Suwano is her 'gentle and soothing' eyes. They are oval shaped and slightly slanted downward, giving her a calming and enticing look, and the same mysterious look that Urabe has. She has the same dark chocolate brown eye color that matches her hair color. Suwano has an average bust size. She has average length arms and sized hands, but long, lean legs that are shown to be so when she wears leggings.
Most often seen wearing her sailor fuku ( sailor suit ) school uniform ( the same style uniform that Urabe wears ), she is nonetheless quite impressive with her peaceful and serene looks. In one chapter, quite by accident, it is shown that Suwano always wears black panties, and probably a black bra, too. For casual wear, Suwano dresses feminine and attractive, sometimes on the provocative and alluring side. When Tsubaki and herself were to go on a date together, when they meet, she wears a Mexican style dress and sexy capri leggings, perhaps to see if she could entice Tsubaki with her appearance. Other times she will dress as if she were a fairy princess. Suwano will occasionally wear glasses, probably the other times she is wearing contact lenses.

Overall, Suwano has a peaceful and pleasing personality. She goes about life without seemingly a care in the world. She knows herself and her accomplishments and goals, and tries to improve on them each and every day. She has good self-confidence. However, Suwano has a dark side to her, that she keeps hidden from others, and many times from herself. She can be the most loyal and understanding friend, but at other times the most tempting and erotic playmate that boys seem to find irresistible.

When the homeroom teacher assigns Suwano and Tsubaki to work together on a class project, Suwano sees this as an opportunity to see if she can potentially influence and captivate Tsubaki, since they will be alone together after school. Added to the mix is that Tsubaki is absolutely mesmerized by her eyes and demure, even to the point of accepting a date with her to go see a movie when she asks him.
Suwano's gentle and soothing side is all to happy to be around Tsubaki under those circumstances, alone together after school, however, her dark side rejoices that she can in little ways tempt him, especially to find out if he has a steady girlfriend, and what her future prospects of any shipping would be with him. Her mysterious side can be devious at times. When Tsubaki drops his home key on the table that they are sharing, she grabs it and places it in her mouth, daring Tsubaki to either tell her if he has a girlfriend, or to remove the key from her mouth with a French Kiss. Such ploy shows that Suwano can morph into someone different in just seconds, much to the surprise of those around her. She can be manipulative at times, as seen when she wishes to invoke jealously in an ex-boyfriend, this by her congenial actions with Tsubaki. Later, by means of an tripping accident, Tsubaki gets a peek at the black panties that she always wears. Suwano, with her dark side showing, tries to use this revelation, he now knowing that she wears black panties, as leverage to get Tsubaki to secretly begin dating her.
Suwano handles responsibility well, and can gain the trust and respect of teens and adults alike. She does well in her academic studies and projects. This makes her seemingly mature for her age, and will be able to enter the adult world with success for her efforts.  If only Suwano can balance her calm and sweet side with her dark and mysterious side so that she can function without sorrow or regret for her actions.


Mysterious Girlfriend X

Youko is a tall girl, who looks much younger that the 24 years that she actually is, at times, giving the impression that she is still in high school, or recently graduated. Like the other Tsubaki family members, she is trim and thin, without looking anemic or sickly. She has very long legs, and an average weight for her slim body size and shape. Youko has a somewhat round face, but with a high forehead. She has the same dark brown eyes like her brother, but has big 'anime girl' eyes that are very expressive. She has a lighter skin tone, evenly throughout her body. Her hair is long and straight, black with very dark brown highlights, almost always worn in a single ponytail held with a huge bow. She used to wear her hair in cute, sexy twin tails, but set aside that hairstyle when she graduated from high school. Youko has a larger bust, but thin arms and legs.

Youko dresses nice and attractive, but somewhat plain and ordinary, since she spends most of her time at home taking care of domestic duties. She always wears pretty dresses, or a nice shirt and a pencil skirt. Many times she is wearing an apron, since a lot of her time is spent in the kitchen. However, once in a while Youko will, whether she realizes it or not given her youthful appearance, dress a bit on the sexy or alluring side. One time at home she chose to wear a clingy, tight fitting black sweater, a denim mini-skirt, and black tights, which drew a profound admiration and provocative comment from visiting Ueno, much to the ire of Akira Tsubaki, her brother and Ueno's best friend. Youko also carries a fashion secret and desire with her. She will, when nobody is at home, change into her high school sailor fuku ( sailor suit ) mini-skirted school uniform ( it still fits ! ), and not only admire herself in the mirror, but will wear it around the house for the rest of the day.!

Although Youko is not married, and has never had children, or even sex for that matter, she still is the perfect example of a wife and mother. She is level-headed, mature, kind, self-sacrificing, gentle but firm, peaceful, and content with the circumstances in her life for the time being. However, Youko is not above scolding or criticizing Akria when she sees the need to do so. Although she herself is open and honest, Akria is not above concealing things from her, like how far into a shipping he is with Urabe, or that they are Drool Bonded to one another. Youko is very much devoted to her family, consisting of her brother and father, as well as showing devotion to her deceased mother.
Youko is very observant, and does things the right way and on time. She probably has the smarts to take care of the family's financial duties, instead of her father doing so. She considers it her duty to raise her brother properly in place of their deceased mother, and refuses to consider dating or getting married until he graduates and finds a good job. She has met Urabe, but may not know the deep extent of Urabe's relationship with her brother. She spends most of her time at home doing housekeeping and other domestic duties.


MÄR

Alan is a man with tan-colored skin with different shade brown hair (highlighted on his bangs is the lighter brown) hair and dark colored eyes he has a pair of scars on the right side of his face.

Alan is known to many as a legendary hardened, smoking warrior. He can be rather overconfident, but this is rarely seen as a fault because of his power. He also displayed the concern over others' well-being, willing to take the brunt of Halloween' attacks intended for the audience during their final duel.
His tough exterior hides an emotional trauma from unwittingly brought his childhood friend Pump to a dark path. Alan was meant to inspire the young boy to stand up for himself, but the latter misinterpreted his wisdom and became a power-hungry sadist who slaughtered those who wronged him before disappearing. The trauma became apparent after Halloween hinting his true identity to Alan, leaving him shakened to the point of unwittingly scaring a young man who showed his best friend his ÄRM — a scene which eerily resembled his aforementioned ill-fated attempt to help Pump all those years ago. After defeating Halloween in their final battle during which his opponent and Pump are revealed to be the same person, Alan finally found the closure of such trauma.
As the result of sharing a body with Edward for so long up until their separation, Alan became allergic to cats — a new weakness he discovered during the duel against Chaton . This fortunately has since eased over time with Chaton's frequent company, enabling him to be comfortable with her presence by time Lestava Castle is retaken.

Alviss has black hair with a bluish tint, blue eyes, a pale-toned skin complexion and twin upside down peach-colored triangles beneath his left eye. He wore a white shirt with blue stripes on the shoulders down the arms, with zippers making the sleeves able to be undone; on some occasions, he is seen wearing another version of the white shirt, with only horizontal straps clipping on to each sides and leaving his entire chest and stomach exposed. Black pants had a totem-like chain on the left side and white shoes with metals studs on them. On his chest is the Zombie Tattoo that spreads along his body. Despite his young age, Alviss already possesses an impressively athletic body with a muscular build and a six pack abs. When released, his Zombie Tattoo would spread across his entire back and in front of his body,

He is first seen as a cold figure and highly distrusts Ginta. However he slowly began to trust him and finally held him in high regard. He also sees Babbo as an evil creature, not an ÄRM. He calls Babbo "ball" and was one of "Team MÄR's strongest" like Hamelin was stated when he was defeated. He is the silent character, and he only talks whenever he needs to. He shows his emotion only when facing with Rolan, talking with Phantom and whenever he is around Belle. He also holds Alan, Gaira, and Danna in high regards, idolizing them as his mentor and subconsciously working hard to become like them.


MÄR

Aqua was a pretty, and apparently young, girl who wears a purple sea-themed ball dress with pearls and other ornaments attached to its skirt. She possessed shiny light-blue hair with a huge bang on the right side of her face. She also wore a yellow crustacean shell on her head like a crown and had a red Star painted on her left cheek. While her eyes are mostly closed, it is shown that her eyes are dark blue.

Despite being a Chess Piece, the happy and rather unpredictable Aqua always kept a smile on her face, much to the surprise of Team MÄR. Aqua refers to everyone with honorific suffixes in the Japanese version, while in the English dub puts either "Mr." or "Miss" in front of everyone's names, including herself.


MÄR

Babbo has the appearance of a giant metal kendama . His face is located on the ball, where his consciousness is predominately held in. He has a long, thick cylindrical nose with a thick, dark mustache underneath, both ends pointing upwards. In addition he also has thick, dark eyebrows and a soul patch.
On the side of the hammer, there is a design of a cross surrounded by four holes that can be filled with magic stones on both sides of the hammer.

Babbo is known for his oversized ego, constantly referring to himself as a "gentleman" and frequently practices trying to be "dandy" to others, even asking for feedback. He can be rather eccentric at times, whether trying to catch someone's attention or mocking someone else.


MÄR

She has light blue hair, dark blue eyes, and dresses in a purple leotard.

She loves Alviss more than anyone else, and gets jealous of whomever Alviss so much as behaves intimately towards (which ranges from girls to friends, e.g. Alan). Despite this possessiveness, Belle befriends other members of Team MÄR such as Dorothy.


MÄR

Bellini is an adorable girl with lavender hair and a yellow hair tie and bow. Her game portraits show her to have teal eyes, but her game sprite depict violet. She wears a black and white Lolita dress with a collar bow the same color as her hair.

MÄR

Cal is a young man with dull green eyes and medium blonde bowl-cut hair. Despite claiming to never have held a sword before, he still carries one sheathed on his left hip.

MÄR

Candice is a young brunette with a voluptuous body. Her appearance is influenced by the BDSM subculture and military chic, consisting of a strapless leotard, one-legged grey tights, a grey stocking, combat boots, stockinged gauntlets. and a military cap. Her jewelry is made up of a choker, the magical stone in her eyepatch-clad eye (technically the ÄRM Kukan Teni), and the ÄRM Gorgon which she wears on her cap.

She has a complex personality. She can be bubbly and easygoing which usually occurs when she is around Phantom or thinking about him. However, she can also be merciless and cruel, regardless of who her opponent is. She retains her dominatrix personality in the anime, but it is more exaggerated.
In her battle against Jack, she reveals her eye-for-an-eye philosophy. She is a sadomasochist who loves to fool her opponents into thinking they are winning by letting them attack her when she has used Scales of Blessing. Her opponents are blissfully unaware of her love of the pain. She does however dislike been insulted for her love of pain, as when Dorothy calls her a freak, Candice tries to crush the life out of her. The opponents then pay the price for their attacks as she gets to watch them scream in agony because of Gorgon. She begins to blush as she watches Gorgon petrifying Jack, saying his expression may be too much for her to take.
Candice has an unusual friendship with fellow knight, Rolan . While Rolan is good-natured and has a feminine appearance, Candice is something of a tomboy (though she has a more feminine side which she shows while caring for an ailing Phantom) and is cruel in battle. It is likely their friendship stems from the fact that the two of them, along with Peta , are the most loyal to Phantom.


MÄR

Before her match with Alan , Chaton wore a purple cloak. After discarding it, she was revealed as a young dark-skin woman with dark brown cat ears and a matching-colored tail.

She has a crush on Alan, much to his distaste, as Alan who was ridiculously in contrast to his looks and due to an ironic twist of his situation with Ed, is a cat phobic. She is good friends with Loco, even though Chaton is quick to get on Loco's nerves.


MÄR

She usually dons a ghastly skeletal mask with a green wig attached to it She conceals her blonde hair color (the green color is only in the anime, however, since the cover of volume 13 shows a blonde-haired, masked Chimera). Since her enlisting for the Chess Pieces, she's fashioned her hair spiky, a mode far more commonly styled for males, and (exclusively for the anime) builds up her stature into a more masculine form, misleading people about her actual gender [1] . In addition to these extraordinary outward features, Chimera's facial appearance carries hideously unique traits: she wears a grotesque mass of eyeballs on the right side of her face, stitches a horizontal black line on the scar across her nose's bridge, and seasons the overall gruesome sight by piercing her Knight insignia earring on the tip of her tongue. She normally wears a Mandarin-style purple robe (silver in the manga).

Out of the 13 Zodiac Knights, Chimera is by far the most mysterious. In her every seldom appearance until the Final Battles , Chimera never takes off her mask, nor is she seen conversing with anyone in words. Always shielding her emotions behind the skull face, Chimera possesses the silence of a beast, and the behavior of one as well: she's ruthless in battles, and is a barbarous warrior, once seen ripping apart a Cross Guard soldier thrusting at her. Her savagery is commended by even the 3rd-in-command Knight Halloween [2] ; and her prowess is hinted to be one of the most noteworthy among the Knights: Alan of Team MÄR once remarks he didn't notice her in the 1st War Game , which allegedly implies either she moved up to the 4th seat of the Chess Zodiac in a matter of only 6 years' times from a previous unknown lower rank, or that she entered the Chess after the 1st War Game and managed to occupy it after only 6 years (which was precisely the case) [3] . Pozun , referee of the War Game, too esteemed surviving a fight with Chimera - be the fight itself a loss - as an impressive deed (even when the survivor in question is Gaira , 3rd-in-command of Cross Guard , the Chess' nemesis in the 1st War) [4] .
When stripped of her mask, Chimera's personality is shown to be an overly sarcastic and scornful one, reflected in the jeers she attributes to others, e.g Gaira whom she outfought, and Dorothy when her attacks were merely sufficient enough to land her but one blow. She's also resolutely resentful of the world, claiming she will never forsake her path of destruction, War Game or not. [5] ; and refuses to decline herself to be sympathized by opponents [6] . Besides killings, Chimera appears to have interest in disfiguring (pretty) woman bodies, hints at having an entire collection of it [7] . Despite all this fiendishness, Chimera still has her own emotional insecurities, being easily irritated/incited to losing concentration.


MÄR

Due to being twins, Daffy bears the same face as Iffy, but has deep red eyes and blonde hair instead of pink for both. She also wears a pink dress with a matching shoulder cape.

MÄR

Diana has rather long semi-messy hair that frames her face, and like Dorothy has red eyes, however hers are much darker in color, appearing black when not looked at in the right light. In the manga she wears a black gown. At her waist she wears a metal belt with three chains descending from it. Diana wears fingerless opera gloves. Both her hands have long fingernails and she has three rings on her left hand and two on her right. On each wrist, she wears a thick bracelet. She wears a choker and one or two elaborate necklaces.

In the anime, her appearance is downplayed. She lacks her belt and her necklaces are less detailed. The texture of her dress become more simple as well. Her dress rises up farther.

Diana is initially sinister, selfish, and uninterested in anything as long as those of a lower rank can do her biddings without fail. As the Chess Piece Queen she is one of the two heads of a twin-headed snake commanding the Chess army, made Lestava Castle a safe haven for the army, and shaping MÄR Heaven into a land of war and destruction. Remaining in the background at all times, Diana pulls the strings of the Knights, using them as her ultimate weapons for her plan to conquer both MÄR Heaven and Earth.
Unknown to anyone else, including herself, Diana's true self is still locked away inside of her, clouded by the influence and manipulation of the King. Only through death can she be brought back to her true self, as evident with her battle with Dorothy.


MÄR

Dorothy has pale skin, red eyes, and long pink hair tied in two braided pigtails, each of which have two dark purple jewels in them. She wears a black cap with a ball on the end of it that matches her dress in coloration. The dress goes down a bit past her knees, has short puffed sleeves, a large bow on the lower back, and one slit on her left side that goes up to her hip. Her thighs are typically exposed when she uses her Wind magic or when she is restrained by an opponent. Her dress wraps tightly around her torso, which shows the shape of her breasts. Around her neck she has a white collar that has a mail coach tie with a dark purple jewel on it. In addition to her dress, she wears black boots that go up to below her knees and black gloves that reach up to her elbows and are held in place on her middle fingers and by metal bracelets on her wrists.

Dorothy has developed a protective disposition on Ginta and gave him the nickname "Gin-tan", therefore always inwardly annoyed of Snow, even though they sometimes cooperate. Dorothy is conscious of her attractiveness, and does not mind showing skin, even when in dangerous situations. Dorothy is also rather flirtatious, and commonly uses her charm and body as a way to bribe the male members of Team MÄR, which usually ends successfully. Despite her lovable nature, Dorothy is ruthless in battle, going as far as killing any Chess Pieces members that she can get her hands on, though she later promises Ginta she won't kill her opponents.

She has a white bow on her collar that has a gold broach securing it. Her pink apron also has two hearts on the bottom left and has her Candy House ÄRM around her waist as well.

Emokis is proud, yet delusionally vain and often seeks reaffirmation from Dandarshi. She frequently calls others "ugly" and measures both the strength and magic ability of others by their appearance. She assumed that because Snow was ugly by her standards that Snow was a weak fighter, but was not deterred from this belief even when Snow withstood Emokis' exploding flower ÄRM. Emokis also has a short temper with any who would openly contradict her belief regarding beauty.

He has always had a daydreaming problem; falling asleep in class happens on a regular basis. Ginta's dreams are about a fantasy world in which he is the hero. On many occasions, he tells Koyuki, the only person who believes that his dreams are real, about the dreams and how one day he will go to the place he sees when he's asleep. Many of his classmates and teachers pick on him for sleeping in class and Ginta often ends up getting beat up or running around the school as punishment.

Gotchi is similar in design to Babbo but lacks a hammer. His chain is thinner like a rope with a handle at the end for his partner Wheat to hold on to. Ginta considers Gotchi to be a "yo-yo" ÄRM, just as he finds Babbo to be a kendama ÄRM. He wears a monocle over his right eye, and has a moustache that points downward.

Like Babbo, Gotchi believes himself to be gentleman. However, he thinks very highly of himself, and is not afraid to show it by challenging Babbo to prove that he is the superior of the two. His conceit is so great that he introduces himself as "Duke Gotchi" (デユーク・ゴッチ, De~yūku Gotchi ) .

Ian is a tall man with black spikey hair and teal colored eyes that are normally squinted. He wears a pale yellow robe with a youren closure, with the sleeve cuffs and collar being maroon colored. Underneath, he wears a blue tank top, brown jogger pants, and black flat shoes.

On the surface, Ian appears to be a laid-back, jovial young man who is one of the few Chess Pieces to have the daring to be blunt and disrespectful towards his superiors. This ranges from addressing Loco with the honorific " -chan " in spite of her insistence on their age gap, to talking back to Halloween who is one of the highest-ranked Knights, and in his quest for vengeance later on, challenging even the Knights.
Ian's amiable manners, however, belies the lethal, battle-thrilled fighter he can be in the battlefield. Once driven by determination he is relentless in his pursuit, be it a simple case of getting the fight he enjoys or the venture to eliminate a superior sworn enemy. Ian's tenacity is prone to lead him go against his orders, and Ian admits because of it, he is always mentally prepared for death penalty. Although his affiliation evidences the contrary, Ian is a man of high morals - in fact, it was his idealistic dream to "purify" the world instead of selfish desires like most other Chess Pieces that urged him to join it in the first place.
His love for his girlfriend, Gido, outweighs his ideals and well-being, and later becomes his motivation in battle throughout the series. His upright nature attracts great respect from his opponent, Ginta, and though the sympathy doesn't align their causes, it eventually manages to diminish their initial enmity.

Jack's looks have lead to several people to refer to him as a "monkey".

John Peach is a boy who fancies himself as the future great hero of MÄR Heaven, quite ignorant of his dim-witted and cowardly nature. As such, his backpack are full of ÄRMs that are either too hard for him to use, very weak, or do not work right.


MÄR

Kai is a young adolescent boy with shaggy scarlet hair and rusty red eyes.

As a child, Kai was much more reclusive due to his amnesia and rarely smiled, but his true self began to shine after befriending Elisa.
Foolish and impulsive, he has always wanted an ÄRM as powerful as Babbo , but is incapable of using any, as commented by his foster father, for his character is too hesitant to rely on help from others including ÄRMs.


MÄR

Same happened to Snow. She has dreams of MÄR Heaven, and is also affected by what happens there, as shown when she starts sweating profusely during Ginta's fight with Phantom.

MÄR

As a jester, Magical Roe wore a dual-colored coat with matching ankle boots, baggy trousers, and a fool's cap over his head. He had amaranth spots over his eyes with rosy pink spots underneath. His coat, being black and white, symbolized his opposing roles as both a Knight of the Chess Pieces and the caretaker of Princess Snow.

Initially, Magical Roe is depicted in Snow ’s memories as a very fun and kind person who entertained her with his magic tricks and played with her for many years. The two became quite close and Ed in the anime mentions that Snow was hesitant to leave him in Lestava Castle and spoke frequently of him after running way.
It is later revealed that Magical Roe was very loyal to Diana and was prepared to follow all her orders, even if they went against his wishes. The anime showed he held his position in the Chess Pieces as a Knight in high regard and revealed a ruthless side of him in combat. Although he did genuinely care deeply for Snow, he was also prepared to do battle with and capture her under Diana’s orders.
It’s shown that Magical Roe is something of a blind follower to Diana and might not know how to proceed without her, but towards the end of both the manga and the anime, he expressed some doubt towards her true intentions and eventually decided that she needed to be stopped.


MÄR

MÄR

Nanashi has long blonde hair and turquoise eyes, although rarely are his eyes shown, and instead have them hidden behind a cloth headband.

Nanashi speaks with a Kansai dialect, a trait not found throughout MÄR Heaven. Much like Ginta Toramizu , Nanashi is ever happy and optimistic, and is rarely ever seen without a smile on his face (although, usually caused by his flirtatious attitude with women). He believes that things will eventually work out, despite however bad things seem. Nanashi is also very playful, and commonly teases other members of Team MÄR , particularly Alviss for his dark and unhappy views. Nanashi can find fun out of anything if he tries, as seen in the anime fillers.
Despite his happy and go-getter point of view, Nanashi is at times very serious and almost dark. He refuses to forgive anyone who hurts his friends or other Luberian members. In battle, Nanashi is shown as a serious and strong-minded fighter, rarely letting his emotions get in the way of his battle, or rather, at least with male enemies. Nanashi, however, can still find enjoyment out of fighting, as seen with his optimism during his fight with Aqua .
Nanashi is also quite the lady's man. When he first met Snow and Dorothy , he asked the two out on a date at once and called them "hotties". Like Jack , Nanashi commonly flirts with Dorothy , and also follows her around complete with a deadpan look on his face. Nanashi is usually seen flirting around with at least five girls at once, [1] earning him a large amount of crushes. He has also been known to flirt with female Chess Pieces on two occasions, one with Loco , who's technically older than him, and the other with Aqua . [2] Nanashi is often called a pervert for his flirting. [2] Luberia itself notes on how Nanashi's flirting grows out of control at times, and also tries its best to make sure he doesn't flirt too much on missions. [3]


MÄR

Orco was a large, muscular man who is bald and has bulbous eyes.  He wore his ÄRMs on each forearm.

Habitually speaking in third person, Orco possessed very low intellect and poor judgment, as he often overestimated his own abilities. He was sensitive about his appearance and quick to anger when insulted about it. He loved to destroy, and like most of the Chess Pieces had no regard for human life. He boasted about his strength, but showed his true cowardice when realizing he was outmatched.


MÄR

MÄR

Phantom is a tall, lean young man with lavender hair and lilac-colored eyes; his bangs would grow past his face and cover his right side of his face. He possesses an athletic body with defined muscles and toned abs. Phantom's main attire consists of a blue sleeveless fitted shirt and pants with a white sash that wrapped around his waist and flare out like a half skirt. The sash is slung across his chest and cover his entire left arm in a form of cast, hiding his fake arm. Due to his encounter with Danna , he was brutally defeated and his left arm was sliced off by the man. Over time he gained a fake left arm that was covered with a scaly-like green shards, underneath it was actually a dark, almost black-colored arm. Embedded into this arm was multiple ÄRMs he amassed over the years of fighting and some even are stolen. However, despite this left arm of his was actually an arm made with flesh and blood, only covered in scales, when it was destroyed by Ginta, it had the effect that the arm was completely blown away in the shards form, not cut off or hacked off. Over on his right arm, he wore a red armband near his bicep and some bracelets. His right hand bears the original crest of the Zombie Tattoo. Right below his chest, specifically at his solar plexus, is a keyhole which can be inserted by Purific Ave and dispel the Zombie Tattoo.
After the War Game. Phantom can be seen donning a long-sleeved, large white coat with his chest and subsequently, the keyhole for the Purific Ave, exposed. The coat's inner was a deep crimson with black metal-like with silver studs brand around his shoulders, a purple sash around his waist. Some jewelries can be seen around the high neck-collar of his coat and near his chest, although these are not ÄRMs and purely cosmetic.

Being the primary villain throughout most of the story, although he appears suave, charming and even benign on the outside, Phantom is unstable, sadistic, callous and like other Chess Pieces, revels in bloodshed and destruction. He especially likes to be entertained at all times, hoping during each Great War that a strong enemy will appear and trying his best to make each battle as enjoyable as possible, even to the point of allowing Ginta 's power to grow equal to his. As opposed to Team MÄR, who respect life and unite in their love for MÄR Heaven, he considers humans vile, rotten and above all, seeks emancipation from their transient lifespan with its natural weaknesses by means of immortality. Despite this, he still appreciates certain human values such as courage.
As the Chess Pieces' de facto commander, Phantom rules the four classes with an iron fist, tolerating no cowardice in his men or even haphazard killings of lower ranked members. At the same time, his charisma elicits great love and respects from many of his followers, i.e. Rolan , Peta and Candice . Later in the story (more obviously shown in the anime than the manga), Phantom's revealed to treasure those who are close to him, and his desire for eternity partly originates from his unwillingness to part with them. On occasions, he openly laments his solitude in their deaths: his parents, his lover Alma , and in the course of the Second War Game, his best friend Peta .


MÄR

MÄR

Pozun is a small, purple, dwarf-like creature with a giant tail.

Pozun is quite skilled in displaying neutrality with any emotions. While he appears to be on the side of the Chess, it is only due to them being his employers, as few of them treat him with much respect. Pozun will often bend the rules a bit towards either side when his life is threatened.


MÄR

Rapunzel was a homely looking woman with her hair styled into a cone shape. Her outfit was red with white accents on her shoulders. She also wore two red arm bands on her right arm. One at her bicep and the other on her for arm. When she undid her hair from the cone shape it was wild and expansive.

Although she was one of the weakest Knights, Rapunzel was arrogant, riotous, and, despite being quite far from most vision of beauty herself, always boasted of hers and looked down upon others', earning her the dislike of many Knights. Possibly her only redeeming quality is that she loves her little brother Girom .
As seen from her battle against Dorothy, despite her arrogant and boastful personality, Rapunzel was shown to possess the necessary experience and tactical abilities of an experienced fighter and was able to back up her position as a Knight in a tactical level. This was seen where she showcased sufficient combat experience to know the weakness to wind manipulators, maximize the strengths and weaknesses of her ÄRMs, and to be instinctive and perceptive enough to detect when her subordinates are lying to her and sense the clear difference in power between Alviss and Mr. Hook .


MÄR

Both wolves are bipedal, with their feet resembling the paws of bears, and each foot has three claws protruding from it. Their hands, however, resemble those of humans, having five fingers, one of which being an opposable thumb, per hand, with claws acting as the distal and middle phalanxes. Large patches of fur are thick on certain areas of their bodies, though where differs between the anime and manga. They don spaulders on their shoulders with tiny skull pins attached on the fronts. They both bear sharp teeth, suggesting that they were originally carnivores that switched to vegetarian diet.
They also both have multicolored fur, Garu's fur having several shades of red and Ruga's fur having several shades of blue.

Their surname and given names are a play on the French term "loup-garou" which means werewolf. The brothers are most likely based on a Quebec folktale with historical accounts dating back to the 18th century.


MÄR

Rolan is a rather feminine boy with saffron blonde hair and rose pink eyes. He wears a blue shirt with a zipper down the middle and a black collar with a silver band on it. He has several ring ÄRM and most noticeable an ÄRM on his right shoulder that is covered in feathers.

Excitable behavior, stuttering speech and possessing a Zombie Tattoo , Rolan of the Knights class is Alviss of Team MÄR 's direct counterpart. The greatest contrast between them is that while Alviss's feelings for Phantom are sheer hatred, Rolan's are complete love and devotion, and a wish to keep Phantom company on the path to eternity. This is incomprehensible to others, given Phantom's fearful figure, but understandable for him, as Phantom treated him with kindness at a time of vulnerability for Rolan.


MÄR

Schweitzer is a tall grey haired man with blue eyes, blue tattoo markings on his forehead, and rectangular glasses. He wears a white collar and purple shawl with his forest green outfit and steel-toed leather boots.

MÄR

Identical to Koyuki in appearance, Snow has pale skin, blue hair, and brown eyes.

Snow is fun-loving and easy-going but can be serious in battle situations, and is notable for the fact that she looks and acts exactly like Koyuki, Ginta's crush from Earth - her own alternate versions, with whom she shares views of each other's world, and an affection toward Ginta Snow was also Ginta's first kiss. She gets jealous whenever Dorothy gets too close to Ginta.


MÄR

Somewhat resembling a Rübezahl , Vidar is easily distinguished due to his eccentric appearance with a tree growing out of his head containing all his magic power, and always seen holding a wood cane inside which he hides all his ÄRMs.

As a Chess Piece, Vidar is wicked, but is overall an amicable figure to his Chess fellows, and is civil enough towards his opponents.


MÄR

Wheat is a tomboyish girl with tan skin and green eyes. Like Dorothy, she styles her red hair into double braids. She wears rusty colored shorts with a matching top, orange thigh high socks, leather boots, and a dark brown shawl.

Despite working for Daffy , she is considerate and empathetic towards her comrades, even those subordinate to her. She also believes in fighting "fair-and-square", refusing to use underhanded strategies some of her allies are otherwise inclined to.


MÄR

Kannochi was a round-headed Bishop with star-shaped eyes who wore a white suit and top hat. Kannochi's character is a reference to Humpty Dumpty.

Kannochi, unlike most Chess Pieces, wasn't actually evil, and only joined the Chess Pieces for the thrill of battle and had no interest into other people's pain. Kannochi stated that he could have just as easily joined the Cross Guard and conversely fight against the Chess instead.

MÄR

His baggy black pants were cuffed at the ankles; his brown shoes pointed at the ends. Pause's witchy hat had a slit in the front decorated with teeth on the inside, and it made subtle movements every time he used his Würfel die.
In MÄR Heaven: Oblivion of Clavier, his skin was depicted to be pale blue, giving him a zombie-like appearance.

Like all the Ghost Chess soldiers, Pause was fascinated with the forbidden power of Ghost ÄRMs, unaware of the danger the pose until Sarah Band died. He admired his leader Kapel Meister , often addressing him as 'brother', and was horrified when he turned on him.
