Goodnight Punpun

Punpun is depicted as a flightless caricature bird, but this depiction changes frequently throughout the story to express his state of mind. The other characters, unlike the audience, only see his human form, since the caricature birds he and his family are seen as are entirely figurative.

Punpun as a child is particularly innocent and naive. He was quiet and timid when interacting with his friend and often complied with what his friends wanted. Punpun was kind, as described by his father . However, his kindness leads to him despising himself.
As an adult, Punpun is often seen to be sexually driven, depressed and cynical. After reuniting with Aiko , he finds sex very irresistible and addictive. Punpun also becomes highly aggressive and impatient, lashing out at Aiko and other people in violent ways. He becomes very apathetic to many things along with being highly suicidal. In contrast with his personality as a child, Punpun blames others much more than himself. Punpun is rarely fearful of anything and doesn't react to pain shown by when he let Aiko stab him in the eye and chest.


Goodnight Punpun

Sachi takes great care of her physical appearance. In childhood, Sachi has a round nose and chin, but she has multiple cosmetic surgeries on her face during college, making her mostly unrecognizable when she is reintroduced in later volumes. After her surgeries, she has a much slimmer face and nose and wider eyes. She is currently considering breast implants. Her eyes are lightly colored, possibly from her foreign mother, and she wears fake lashes and square glasses. Her eyebrows are sparse. She has a beauty mark above her lip. During college, her hair is bleached, but she dyes it black sometime later. She wears her hair in a layered bob during high school, but leaves it long and straight for many years afterwards, until she cuts it into a bob again while pregnant. Sachi is a tall, slim girl, towering above Misuzu and Aiko . During adolescence, she became bulimic and lost a lot of weight. Punpun notes that her hands are surprisingly large and rough and remind him of Mama Punpun . However, she keeps her nails long and manicured. Her wardrobe consists of many maxi skirts, harem pants, and slim tees.

Sachi is a bold woman with a foul mouth. She has always enjoyed art and drawing and used to win many awards in middle school, though she seemed to plateau in high school. According to Miyuki , Sachi has carried this sense of failure with her and has a need to prove herself. She used to hang out at the abandoned miso factory in middle school, and the nice view of the stars it offered inspired her milky way painting that connected her and Punpun. Later, she says she was never actually able to see the milky way and that when she was younger, she tried too hard to appear mysterious and alternative. Her first attempts at a professional manga are also deemed "pretentious". She was bullemic as an adolescent and worked many jobs during college to pay for multiple cosmetic surgeries on her face. She says every part of her looks and lifestyle is something she consciously chose for herself. This is what freedom means to her. She is a workaholic and dedicates herself completely to whatever project at hand, and her need for control can overflow into relationships. She divorced her husband when he wanted her to depend on him more, and she enjoys that Punpun clings to her guidance. However, after an argument with Miyuki about charity, she relents that nobody can get by without help from others. Strong and stubborn, she often claims that nothing can change her, but this notion is tested by the same argument as well as other events in the story.


Goodnight Punpun

Soara is a caricature bird, like Punpun Onodera and all of his blood relatives.

Little is known about Soara, but he is probably similar to Yuuichi Onodera and Punpun Onodera since he is haunted by the Dark Spot, or God , as they were.


Goodnight Punpun

Sonoda is a very petite girl with wavy light-colored hair that she usually has in sleek pigtails with no bangs (but braids it in college and wears it down in the epilogue) and huge, bambi eyes.

Sonoda is a quiet and shy girl who never has any actual lines and usually speaks through notes or other people. She likes her privacy and breaks up with Shuntarou Harumi after their classmates find out they are dating.
She may be a little boy-crazy since she is the only female character whose crushes, rather than actual boyfriends, are a focus. Freckled Girl says Sonoda has a "type" and since she falls for Harumi and Yaguchi , she seems to be attracted to friendly and outgoing boys.


Goodnight Punpun

Yuuichi always wears a beanie and glasses, although he sometimes takes the glasses off and Yuuichi looks just like Punpun Onodera .
At times, Yuuichi appears to have human eyes and develops facial hair several times. Women of all ages find him very attractive.

Yuuichi is somewhat of a pervert, and often stares at girls' butts when he gets the chance. His appetite for women is one of his few apparent flaws, as he has had several affairs which affected his romantic relationships. Yuuichi is extremely remorseful about his adultery, to the point of suicidal thoughts.
He does not believe in God and has little patience for people who force their religion onto others, as seen when he snaps at Aiko Tanaka 's mother when she goes door-to-door selling blessed water.

Marquis de Blois is a man with wavy pale blonde hair and blue eyes. He is always seen wearing a monocle in his left eye and is dressed in white robes similar to a priest's. There is also a large crucifix hanging from his neck as a necklace.
Albert gives off a mysterious, sinister aura that can be intimidating even to his son Grevil.

Marquis Albert applies a strict approach whether if it concerns his quest to gain supernatural might or if it involves Victorique or Grevil. He is also very focused in his ambitions to the point of disregarding the family he created through Cordelia Gallo ; in fact, he regards Victorique as a mere tool for the struggle between the Ministry and the Science Academy .


Gosick

Ambrose is a young man with long blond hair and green eyes. He ties his hair in a ponytail. His outfit consists of a white undershirt, a blue necktie, a brown coat and breeches. Ambrose also wears a cone-shaped hat.

Despite knowing about Victorique's roots as a murderer's daughter, Ambrose still shows a friendly attitude to her and Kazuya throughout their stay in the Village of Gray Wolves. In fact, Kazuya becomes the target of his interest, at one time asking permission from Victorique to touch Kazuya, having never seen anyone outside his village with differing ethnicity and physical characteristics.


Gosick

Avril has short wavy blond hair and blue eyes. Aside from her usual school uniform, Avril wears comfortable dresses, including a short pink sleeveless dress with a ribbon tied on the waist.

Unlike Kuiaran , who is prim-and-proper and lady-like, Avril is far less graceful, as demonstrated when she wolfs down several sandwiches after a few days without food as Kuiaran's captive. She is also interested in the supernatural and is adventurous, usually dragging along Kazuya in her own adventures around Saint Marguerite and outside town.


Gosick

Brian is a tall man with distinctive long red hair and a sharp gaze. He wears a loose white shirt which he leaves mostly unbuttoned, and a pair of black pants. He covers his attire with a long black cape, and is usually seen wearing a black top hat.

Not much is known of him, but he shows a blunt personality when talking to Kazuya Kujo about referring to Victorique as a "tool" when the two encounter in Leviathan's clock tower and at the Phantasmagoria festival when talking to Victorique.
Both Brian Roscoes care deeply for Cordelia Gallo, after initially admiring her for her strength even after her exile from the village. This deep sentiment is the reason they follow her as she looks over Victorique, despite their strong jealousy towards the latter for being Cordelia's most important person. One Brian Roscoe admitted to wanting to kill Victorique so that Cordelia would only live for them instead of her, and that he hated her for making Cordelia cry. Both want to protect Cordelia, but is unable to because of her unwavering desire to protect Victorique. So instead, they aid her as she goes to great lengths to protect her daughter.


Gosick

Like many of the inhabitants of the Village of the Gray Wolves, Cordelia possesses blonde hair and green eyes. As a maid, she is ordered to arrange her hair into a bun on each side of her head. She later abandons the look when she is exiled from the village, and has been seen wearing a similar hairstyle as her daughter.
She is peculiarly small for a woman of her age, and usually wears dark-colored outfits, particularly a black-and-purple dress.

Cordelia is shown to be very loving, caring person and incredibly strong mentally and emotionally. As described from one Brian Roscoe, she was the mother they always wanted. Even though Cordelia  was forced to bear Victorique, she loves her daughter very much and often mentions that Victorique is her soul. Both Brian Roscoes particularly admired her for her strength, looking forward even after she was exiled from her village. Throughout her travels with them she often looks over her daughter, whom she calls her soul.


Gosick

Cecile is a small woman in her twenties with a baby face, fluffy brown hair and big round glasses. She is usually dressed in a light yellow blouse with ruffles dangling where the collar meets and a high-waist pencil skirt; she also wears a pair of Venetian-style loafers and white hosiery.

In spite of being a teacher of Saint Marguerite, Cecile does not necessarily exude an aura of a strict instructor. She is friendly towards other people, particularly the students of Saint Marguerite, and in fact, sometimes acts less mature than even Kazuya or Victorique , a tell-tale sign of her age; Cecile even suffers from being bullied by Victorique at times. However, she can also show a strict side, which actually managed to scare both Avril and Kazuya once.
As do most of the people in Saint Marguerite, she knows a lot of things about Sauville 's many urban myths and has shared some of her knowledge to Kazuya; ironically, she is very weak when it comes to ghosts and anything scary, and would panic or faint when seeing or hearing scary things first-hand.


Gosick

Grévil is a tall and handsome man in his 20s. He fashions a weird drill-like hairstyle which requires a long time to set, and is rarely seen with his hair unstyled. In the past, however, Grevil is often seen with his shoulder-length hair left unkempt. According to Kazuya Kujō , Grevil's hair is silky at first look, and Cecile Lafitte describes his hair as having the scent of flowers, which Grevil blames on the fragrant shampoo he uses.
He is also usually seen wearing a white coat and slacks, and wears a pink ascot. In the past, he would instead resort to a blue ascot with his coat.

In the past, Grevil displays a more mild-mannered behavior, soft-spoken and always calm. However, he now acts in a more eccentric way, sometimes exaggerating his actions and manner of speaking in front of familiar people. Despite his comical behaviour, he does show a more serious side when obediently regarding his father's orders, to whom he holds a deep obligation as his eldest son and heir.
The truth about Grevil's work as a detective is that it is an "aristocrat's hobby", and he had forced the local police to make him a detective purely because he had an interest in crime. In fact, Grevil is actually a terrible detective; one of the most notable mistake he made was how Grevil had suspected Kujo and nearly criminalized him for killing a government worker who was really killed by his lover, which would have caused a diplomatic war between Sauville and Japan.  As a result, usually dependent on Victorique's intelligence to solve his crimes.
He shares a complex relationship with his younger half-sister, Victorique. In spite of his constant visits to Victorique, he is reluctant to interact with Victorique, especially since he knows that she can be overly demanding when it comes to repaying her talents. For example, his odd hairstyle. He also tends to say cruel things to her - for example calling her heartless, not knowing how to love. Despite that, does show that he cares for her, often protesting against his father's actions towards her and worrying about her.
He is in love with his best friend, Jacqueline , despite the fact that she is already married, and thinks very highly of her opinion.


Gosick

Like most of the inhabitants of the Village of the Gray Wolves, she has long blond hair and green eyes. She arranges her hair into two long braids which is formed into a bun in each side of her face.
As a chambermaid, she is always seen wearing a dark blue dress with a white collar.

Harminia possesses the characteristics of an unstable mentality, breaking into fits of hysteria whenever she is reminded of the murder of Elder Theodore and/or Cordelia Gallo herself. Otherwise, she is a quiet young woman who spoke very rarely to strangers.


Gosick

Ian is a young boy with blond hair and blue eyes. His hair reaches past his ear on the front and goes as far as his nape on the back. His outfit is typical of the upper class boys of his age; he wears a dark green coat, a white undershirt and white breeches, although he doesn't wear a tie or similar accessories.
At first glance, he seems friendly, and he does not exude the air of extravagance of an older member of the upper class.

Despite having a father who strictly criticizes the occult in general, Ian does not share the same personality. In fact, he is curious when it comes to the supernatural, and it only intensified when he met Leviathan, on his father's interrogation of the mysterious alchemist. Ian also appears to be friendly even to strangers, a trait somewhat unusual for someone who comes from an aristocrat family.


Gosick

Jacqueline is a woman with chocolate brown hair and brown pupils. She styles her hair into bun, and leaves a lock of hair hanging from both sides of her face. She wears a light brown coat over a pink undershirt and wears a pleated skirt with a slightly darker color.

Despite being an adult, Jacqueline usually acts much younger for her age, bubbly and always in high spirits. She usually suffers from having a short attention span, and can be stubborn, a constant test to her maid Marion 's patience.
However, Grevil knows that she also experiences moments of sadness, which Jacqueline often tries to hide by resorting to impulse buying and trying to act funny at the wrong moments.


Gosick

Kujo is a young boy with black hair and burgundy eyes. Although usually seen wearing the uniform of Saint Marguerite Academy, he also wears the conservative clothing that boys of his age usually wear. His outfit consists of: long-sleeved shirts worn over light-colored undershirts; neckties; a coat; and either breeches or slacks. Most of the time, he wears a narrow-brimmed hat.

Kazuya possesses a kind and sincere attitude, usually soft-spoken and respectful to others. He takes the honor of being an Imperial soldier's son to heart, and follows its code of honor most of the time. However, he shows a more blunt side when he is annoyed, causing him to hurt others by his words carelessly.
Kujo also possesses an imperfect memory, remembering many details that are helpful in solving a case, yet unable to always remember information outside solving crimes.


Gosick

Leviathan's true features is of a man of African descent, with a dark complexion and black hair. He prefers to keep his features a secret by wearing a loose black cloak and a mask that completely hides any traces of his origin, allowing him to mingle with the people of Sauville without being questioned.
His usual attire also causes him to exude a mysterious aura which, combined with his eloquent speech, has managed to charm Queen Coco Rose while the alchemist became the king's adviser.

Before he was known as Leviathan, he belonged to a group of Africans who were used to secretly transport gold into Sauville which was then hidden in the clock tower of Saint Marguerite Academy . When the king ordered the murder of the rest of the Africans to keep the secret of the gold's location intact, he survived and was able to escape.
The previous king soon passed away and as the only one who knows the location of the hidden gold, he took on the alias Leviathan and masked his face to conceal his African heritage, appearing in front of the new king Rupert de Gilet twenty years later.
With his knowledge of chemistry and botany, he convinced the King's court of his alchemist abilities by turning a white rose blue and agreed to supply the King with gold — in fact, the gold that was brought into the country twenty years prior, under the guise that he was using alchemy to create them. However, it comes under the condition that Sauville protects his African homeland from further colonization by other nations.
As tensions between the Ministry of the Occult and the Science Academy began to rise, Leviathan soon found himself under fire from both Baron Musgrave and the Academy to provide evidence for alchemy.
Under both stress and pressure by the Academy and the nobles, he murders Ian Musgrave out of despair and anguish, condemning himself to execution. However, he was later approached by Albert de Blois who proposed a bargain with him. In exchange for his protection, Leviathan was to create an army of homunculi for the upcoming Great War.
He knew well that he did not have the ability to perform such a task and he was later fatally wounded by a hail of arrows from Baron Musgrave's men. As he managed return to his tower and lock himself in his secret vault that hid his gold, he was sought by Albert, who desparately pleaded for his help. However, using his last breath, he advises Albert to father a child from an unusual bloodline.

Luigi is a young boy with blond hair and blue eyes. Due to his initial status as a street beggar, his straight hair becomes wavy and dull-colored. He is dressed similarly to a typical child of his age, but the clothes he wears are rags and are torn in some places.

To earn a few coins to buy food for himself, Luigi usually uses his ability in various ways, including guessing how much money a person drops and placing bets on it with that person. He also later reveals that he does not like the police, mainly because they did not believe the reports he submitted about disappearing women and children.


Gosick

Mildred is a young woman with gray pupils and brown hair which forms a large ball of wiry curls on her head; on each side of her face is a lock of hair tightly curled in place. She also has some freckles dotting her cheeks.
She first appears dressed in nun's clothes when she assumes the role of a nun who acquires money from selling donated goods. She later abandons her disguise and changes to a yellow sleeveless dress with a low neckline, which exposes much of her breasts.

Contrary to her initial disguise, Mildred is an outgoing woman with a choice of clothes less conservative than women of her time. She is also an alcoholic, usually seen consuming alcoholic beverages even when she is supposed to play as a nun (which Kazuya later determines).
Mildred can also be playful to people whom she is comfortable talking with, which Grevil personally experiences much to his embarrassment.


Gosick

Millie is a young girl with wavy blond hair and blue eyes. Her hair reaches to her back and two locks of her hair hang from either side of her face. Because of her terminal illness, she has a pale complexion compared to her classmates.
She is usually seen dressed in the uniform of Saint Marguerite until the time of her death, where she wears a white dress.


Gosick

As previously stated, she bears a striking resemblance to the queen of Sauville, Coco Rose. She has the same golden-blond hair, eyes and complexion of the queen, and one may have difficulty in distinguishing the queen among the two if they were placed side by side.
What would probably cause Nicole to stand out is her choice of clothing, which is less regal and more like a celebrity, befitting her fame as a stage actress.

Little is known about Nicole's personality, but according to some photographs, she has a more upbeat personality, which might stand out if placed in a more serene environment.


Gosick

Ruri is a girl with long black hair and dark brown pupils. Her hair forms a neat row of fringes across her forehead and she prefers her hair unarranged. Like most Japanese people of her time, she is usually seen wearing a kimono.

Ruri acts as Kazuya's guardian when he is scolded by his father. According to her, she shudders at the thought of Kazuya becoming either one of her elder brothers or her father, and wishes that he was able to play games with her, even to the point of wishing that Kazuya was born female.


Gosick

Simon is a man with brown hair and dark blue pupils. He styles his hair such that the fringes are on either side of his face. On his trip to the Phantasmagoria, he wears a black coat and a blue necktie. Upon first glance, Simon looks presentable and approachable, a trait which is then backed up by his cheery and pleasing personality.

In spite of having complete strangers as companions in Phantasmagoria , Simon is seen to be friendly with everyone he meets, even with a grumpy old man he ends up sitting with alongside Kazuya. Simon is also equally knowledgeable in science as in urban myths, and can be argued that he is a loyalist of scientific advancement, blatantly questioning the existence of supernatural powers.


Gosick

Victorique is a small, almost doll-like girl with long blonde hair and emerald eyes. However, she possesses a voice and articulation in speaking that makes her sound like a mature woman. Despite being a student in Saint Marguerite Academy, she usually wears a black Victorian dress and Black Hairband which is full of lace and frills; she also possesses a wardrobe consisting of dresses of a variety of colors. As a child, her appearance is no different except for the lack of emotion she shows on her face. This can be seen when she speaks to Grevil de Blois, especially on the topic of love and affection.
Another important part of Victorique's appearance is that she sometimes appears to be smoking a white and blue porcelain pipe that she uses when thinking.
At the end of the anime, her hair turn silver. Supernatural beings usually die if they leave the old continent, Victorique however survives because she's a mixed blood. Still, her hair completely lose the golden color due to Marie Antoinette Syndrome.

Victorique personifies the classic tsundere character type. However, that is not all there is to her personality. Despite her sharp tongue, abusive bluntness, and eccentric attitude, she possess an odd supernatural, overwhelming charisma, and flawless eloquence. She uses these skills to manipulate people into doing what she wants with ease.
Victorique often puts on a show of being harsh or sarcastic, but she has other sides to her personality. She is often depicted as being bored by normal life, and asks Kujo to bring her things to distract or entertain her. Often, he brings things to her of his own accord, and Victorique is shown as having a range of reactions, depending on the gift. These gifts range from mysteries, to candy, to a beautiful kimono from Japan.
Victorique also has some rather child-like parts of her personality. She can be impetuous, stubborn, cheerful, and sweet, just like a small child might be.
Another big part of her personality is that she seems to have some sort of social anxiety. This is shown in how she tends to hide in a large cubbord, or stay perfectly still so that people think she's a large doll when strangers come into the botanical gardens where she spends much of her time. She is frightened and nervous when Kujo finds her after the stranger(s) leave, but his presence calms her down quickly.
Her experience in the dungeons of the de Blois mansion, along with the absence of her mother, Cordelia , has caused her to develop a nihilistic attitude. In spite of possessing a brilliant mind, she did not have any knowledge when it comes to love and affection which her brother would often use to hurt her. This gradually changed when she begins spending time in the library tower of Saint Marguerite Academy, and this change is hastened by her interactions with Kujo.
She initially treats Kujo as an entertainer of sorts, usually being dependent on him to cure her boredom by either bringing her something interesting (which at times fails to meet its purpose) or telling her a mystery to solve. The latter eventually puts them into situations that improve their relationship with each other to the point they soon became good friends, such as in episode 3 of the anime. When it was apparent that Kujo was in danger, she worried about him, and pleaded Kujo to stay with her because she wanted to return home with him. Victorique soon shows a more sincere side to showing her emotions to Kujo than to others, even asking him to protect her.

Cruel Moon Archdemon was an elderly man with a muscular build and usually had a serious expression on his face. He had a thick white moustache and long flowing white beard that matched his equally long side burns. The remaining hair from his balding head was tied back into a traditional bun. He also wore an ornate robe and a cloak with large pauldrons but later on changed to a simple cloak.

Cruel Moon Archdemon was described as an impetuous and belligerent man. [1] He also had great pride in the Asura Blood Sect and was a firm supporter of the Sect's dream of conquering the Middle Kingdom as he was willing to travel to the murim against the Grand Prelate's orders to find a weapon that could make it possible. Even moments before his death, he never wavered in loyalty to the Grand Prelate and gave a rare warm smile to a vision of him when he looked down on everyone he encountered in the Murim. [2] Furthermore, he seemed to have cared somewhat about his subordinates, showing a moment of grief when he learned about their dwindling numbers however he was also strict and harsh being quick to reprimand them for their failures. [3]

Ryong is a short, plump young man with long black hair that he ties into a ponytail and pale brown eyes. His general appearance is very unassuming leading many to underestimate him. He also generally wears a jolly and bright expression on his face.

Ryong is a cheerful guy who rarely has a frown on his face. He has a strong sense of justice and is always willing to step in and help those who look like they are in trouble; he once forsook sleep for several days to make sure the Elder was safe from an assassin. While he initially seemed to be somewhat naïve, finding himself interrupting and getting engaged in the middle of fights without knowing the situation, this is merely him obfuscating his true nature as an intimidatingly powerful gosu; a few people have experienced Ryong's incredibly intimidating murderous intent, with one likening him to a demon and a great tiger. [2] Nameless comments that Ryong's overwhelmingly intimidating battle aura and fighting spirit completely defies belief.
Ryong tries not to kill his opponents unless the situation forces him to do so. This peaceful attitude has clashed with the supposed mission given to him by his late master : killing the Four Heavenly Kings . After experiencing what his master was truly like before his downfall during his fight with Mak Sapyeong , Ryong's attitude towards people in the murim and the opponents he faced began to change; during his skirmish with Ze Wungang and Nameless , Ryong truly realised that killing the Four Heavenly Kings actually wasn't what his master had wanted for him and that he had chosen to do so of his own volition, although he had since become disillusioned with the path he had chosen. [3] As a result, he has become more vicious, merciless and apathetic in his actions, mirroring that of the original Heavenly Destroyer.

Several decades after the war against the Asura Blood Sect , Goo Hwi has aged noticeably with his once black hair and moustache having now gone completely grey. He also gained a second distinguishing scar on the left side of his chin.

Goo Hwi is generally quite a cheerful entity and quite level-headed. He has a protective nature and will help those aligned with his family's organisation. While Goo Hwi will happily avoid conflict when possible, if the situation calls for it, he is more than happy to show serious force.
While he has mellowed out in his old age, Goo Hwi loved to fight in his younger days, showing no hesitation to challenge others in any situation regardless of what state he is in. [2] [3] Even when facing powerful opponents, he is absolutely fearless and confident in his victory. He is also a very prideful man, often boasting about his fame and calling his martial arts the most powerful in the Middle Kingdom. [4] Although he is a murderer, Goo Hwi has some sense of honor. He does not lay his hand on weak and innocent people or attack merchants and common folk for private gain. [5] [6] Goo Hwi also spares opponents that are not worth killing or people who turns their back on him and walk away but he has no exception for those that harbors hostility towards him. [7] Furthermore, Goo Hwi will hold a grudge against those who had wronged him as he was willing to track down Yongbi and Cruel Moon Archdemon to even the most remote places to exact his revenge on them.

Hong Ye-Mong was an extremely attractive young woman, her beauty was so famous that even those not native to the Middle Kingdom had heard of it. Her wavy black hair was often tied into a long flowing ponytail with strands hanging about. She had full red lips and occasionally wore earrings. Hong Ye-Mong also wore a vast array of cheongsam dresses and robes, and she always carried around her trademark blue bamboo fan. When disguised as Sohsoh, she wore old shabby clothes and had untidy hair which gave her a scruffy appearance. Her face was obscured by large round glasses and a scarf, and she sported short twintails. During this time, she also carried around a massive fan. Several decades after the war against the Asura Blood Sect , Hong Ye-Mong claims wears makeup to retain a youthful appearance though she does hint it is due to other factors. [2]

Hong Ye-Mong has a strong will and dominant personality befitting her position as mistress of the Red Bloods . While she may seem cold most of the time, Hong Ye-Mong is caring of her organisation and its members. She is also intelligent and cunning, often coming up with schemes. If the situation calls for it, Hong Ye-Mong will personally enter the fray to investigate matters and is completely fearless when it comes to combat.
She has a special relationship with Yongbi , while she is usually serious, his antics always make Hong Ye-Mong lose her cool. Initially in love with Yongbi, she broke her engagement with him after he swindled most of the Red Blood's money. This event has such an impact on her that she will go great lengths to hide traces of their relationship and anyone who mentions even a tiny bit of it will be subjected to her wrath (especially Elder Muk ). However, it was revealed that even after all Yongbi had done, she still held feelings for him deep down. She is willing to show forgiveness as she and Yongbi eventually got married but they still occasionally have quarrels. [3]

Hyeon Jae-Yang is a short elderly man with his white hair tied into a ponytail, short strands of hair that hangs over his forehead, and prominent wrinkles on his face. His sideburns and Fu Manchu moustache drops down to his chest and he has a thick but short beard. During the journey in the Muhae valley, he carried a cane around and wore raggedy garbs which gave him a slightly unkempt look. Afterwards, he wore a patterned robe and adornments befitting his status as a faction master.

He is a wise and knowledgeable man who is also often laid back and playful. When the situation calls for it, he can be stern and serious as seen when he attempted to persuade Sanggwan Chaek to return to the murim and face his crimes. [1] Even though he is willing to mercilessly slaughter those who oppose him, Hyeon Jae-Yang has a caring and forgiving side. He showed regret when he accidentally killed Sanggwan Chaek and withdrew his ki halfway through a powerful technique when facing his disciple's possessed body.
Hyeon Jae-Yang was well known to have such a great wanderlust that he's been to just about every corner of the continent, [2] and he also likes to befriend heroes from all around the world. [3] Being the drinking buddy of the Murim High Lord , [4] and having wished that the Golden Castle was full of ripe, rich wine instead of treasures, Hyeon Jae-Yang has a significant love for drinking.

Jeok Seong was a muscular young man with long sideburns and hair tied into a short spiky ponytail. He wore the typical armor of the Black Lancers and carried a sword around with him. After the events of Yogok Gorge, his entire body and head was scarred and disfigured so he wrapped his body in bandages to hide the scarring. [2] The bamboo hat he wore sported a long tassel on top and hid his long ponytail. He also wore common garbs and carried his sword by the base of the hilt in his left hand.

Jeok Seong was a loyal and persistent man, when he was inducted into the Black Lancers, he fought desperately to survive. He was also quite treacherous since he would kill his own superiors if he thought they were holding back their chance to win the war. However, after he found someone worth following such as Yongbi , he would serve that person loyally. Jeok Seong also had a sense of justice as he saved a boy and his mother from bandits and even went as far as going to their stronghold to slaughter their entire band. [3] He cared very much about his comrades as he often cried when he thinks about them and was haunted by their deaths. After escaping from the borderlands, he stayed true to his word and tried to track down his comrades' families to give them their wills. Despite initially being vengeful towards Yongbi and had tracked him down to kill him, he ultimately admitted before his death that deep down in his heart, he never really despised him and just wanted to see him again.

Gosu

He is a plain man with hair tied into a short spiky ponytail and he wears the standard clothing of the time.


Gosu

He was an elderly man with a large untidy white beard that connects with his equally scruffy sideburns and white hair. His eyebrows and thick moustache were black however. Mo Eungjin wore common robes and a coronet crown.

Elder Muk is an elderly man with a strong face, black eyebrows and sideburns, and a thick black Hollywoodian beard. His greyed hair is tied back into a bun with several loose strands sticking out all over. He also wore a cape over his traditional robes and carries a sword around.

He is a constant joker and easy-going man even during serious situations. He is generally cheerful and respectful, especially towards Yongbi , who he addresses as "Master Yongbi" and "Dear Husband". At times he can be quite selfless, expecting nothing in return for saving Jeok Seong's life. Even after accidentally receiving a grievous sword slash from Yongbi, he pleaded with Hong Ye-Mong to not hate him hoping that their relationship is not strained further. Having known Hong Ye-Mong since her childhood, he cares a lot for her and is protective of her. Elder Muk also constantly teases her on her relationship with Yongbi, hilariously incurring her wrath every time.


Gosu

Ne Zarim was a beautiful woman who sported long black hair tied into an odd shape on the top, twintails, and long sideburns. Her hair was also filled with many adornments. In addition, she had prominent eyelashes and a dot in the middle of her forehead. She wore earrings, the traditional robes of her time, and a cloak.

Sima Heum was a rather plain-looking individual. He had short black hair tied back into a bun, a short stubble on his chin, and a moustache. His eyes were always closed and he wore the common clothing of the time. Due to the artist's error, he was sometimes seen wearing a coronet crown.


Gosu

In his younger years, Yongbi was an attractive man with a lean but well-defined musculature and long black hair that he fastened into a flowing ponytail and several loose strands of hair that hang over his forehead. He wore the common garbs of the time and usually carried around a staff and sword with him.
Several decades after the war against the Asura Blood Sect , Yongbi has aged noticeably, now sporting a respectable greyed beard. Despite this, he aged less than expected with Ilgak asking why he aged at a slower rate than the rest in the Sage Forest.

Yongbi is an outwardly jovial, carefree and perverted person with a distinctive penchant for alcohol and money (a trait he shared with his steed Biryong ). Some would describe him as greedy, deceptive, contemptible, tricky, sly, lasivious, and lecherous. [1] While he does display these traits from time to time, Yongbi is deceptively loyal, trustworthy and empathizing despite his seemingly lackadaisical persona.
Yongbi can be serious at times, usually when engaging a powerful foe or when addressing his traumatic past. Behind his usual cheerfulness, he is quite the tragic character who struggled to deal with his inner demons. After finding out that Jeok Seong survived the battle at Yogok Gorge, he would rather hide his consciousness deep within than face him. [2] Even though he sends money to take care of the Horselord's tribe, he takes no responsibility for how the money is spent or care if it is misused. [3] In the past, people saw him as a blood thirsty demon who would slaughter his enemies without remorse and would send hordes of his own men to their deaths. While he did do that, Yongbi did not find thrill in those deeds and is haunted by his past. He often sees the spirits of those he slaughtered, and calls it a long nightmare that he cannot escape no matter how hard he struggles. [4] He did care about his subordinates somewhat as he was seen tracking down their families in the Middle Kingdom to aid them.
Perhaps his most distinguishing trait is his extreme lust for money. When a large sum of money is involved, Yongbi would go crazy and be unable think coherently, [5] causing him to fall for obvious traps. [6] He will also do literally anything for money, [5] even going as far as revealing important secrets about the Golden Castle to a stranger he just met. [7] Even decades after the war against the Asura Blood Sect , Yongbi has retained his desire for money as seen when he questioned if Gang Ryong had compensated them for room and board. [8]

The golden medallion is a ring-shaped gold necklace with intricate engravings on it and is strung on a beaded thread. It is recognizable by the fact that it is the only gold necklace in the world that has a blood red glow. [1]


Gradius

Akiko is a pink penguin with knots for pigtails with a yellow bow. She has stylish eyes and a yellow beak. Her body is completely covered with a red cloth-like structure.


Gradius

Pentaro's feathers are always blue. Later on, as pictured in the cartoon drawings of the Parodius games, he wears a flak jacket and wields a carbine. It's possible that he picked up the shooting skills learned by his father during the course of events in Penguin Adventure , as one of the most facilitating items during the course of the game is a gun.


Grand Blue

Aina is a fairly tall and attractive young woman with waist-length black hair that is tied in a ponytail with bangs swept to the right side while she has long bangs hanging on either side of her face, dark-colored eyes and a beauty mark under her mouth.
Her figure fits a model with long, well-shaped legs and slender hip and arms.

Aina is a friendly girl who asks Iori Kitahara to show her around and she is also innocent as she was shocked (although not freaked out) when she saw Kouhei Imamura , who was impersonating Yuichi Ikegoshi , stripping.


Grand Blue

Aina is fairly pretty in appearance and build with short dark blue hair, purple eyes and a relatively flat chest (of which she is extremely self-conscious). She dresses in fairly simple clothing.
When she's Cakey, she sports a blond wig kept in long pigtails and extremely thick "cakey" makeup which makes her unrecognizable. She also tends to dress more gaudily and is more comfortable showing skin.

Aina's personality changes drastically depending on whether or not she's her regular self or if she's in her Cakey get up. When she's normal, she's notably shyer and more soft spoken. She has low self-esteem when it comes to her appearance, especially the size of her breasts and she is extremely envious of Nanaka Kotegawa and Azusa Hamaoka as they both have extremely large busts. Aina is a bit more romantic compared to the other characters and she has noted that she seems to be the only person in the club who ever thinks about love and romance.
As Cakey, she is much more confident and bold, with excessive and flamboyant body language. She asks out Kouhei Imamura upon meeting him on account of his attractiveness and when drunk, she gets touchy feel and violent.


Grand Blue

Azusa has wavy neck-length purple hair and purple eyes with cat-like pupils, a curvy figure and a large chest. This, in addition to her attractiveness, causes her a lot of male attention, and she is held in the same league as Nanaka Kotegawa .
She is usually seen in casual summer wear, like shorts, t-shirts and tank tops. When drinking with the members of the club, she usually strips with them, though she never gets fully naked and still wears a bra and bottoms.

Azusa has a very playful and mischievous personality. Unlike the other female characters, she regularly drinks with the male members of the club , strips alongside them and parties hard with them while taking part in their outrageous antics. Ryuujirou Kotobuki and Shinji Tokita mention that there is no use treating her like a lady, as she is very brazen and audacious (she had no problem taking off her clothes and going to sleep in the same room as Kotobuki, Tokita, Kouhei Imamura and Iori Kitahara , in which all four of them were naked). She can also be seen as shameless, as when she forgot her swimsuit for the Miss Izu contest, she simply went on in her underwear. She can also be shown being very perceptive as she can pick up the somewhat ridiculous logic behind situations that occur very well.
Azusa admitted (to Iori) that she is bisexual and stated that her ideal woman is Nanaka Kotegawa and her ideal man being Shinji Tokita .


Grand Blue

Chisa is of average height and build with short brown hair, brown eyes and she has been described as cute by other characters where Iori Kitahara has made several comments about her body, particularly her big butt, in which he calls "spectacular".
She has the second smallest bust among the female characters and although she is conscious of it, she isn't as concerned about her chest size as much as Aina Yoshiwara .

Chisa is initially seen as a level-headed and serious girl who takes her studies seriously. She is rarely seen taking part in Peek-a- Boo's drunken antics, usually sitting off and observing instead. Though this makes her seem cold, she actually avoids such antics because she is extremely weak to alcohol (this may be the normal reaction, as Peek-a-Boo's alcoholic beverages usually have above 90% alcoholic content).
She loves diving and is usually the most eager to do any diving related activity. She abhorred the example set by her fellow club members, and was quite hostile when her friends attempt to involve her in their antics. She is incredibly stubborn; once having set her mind on something being almost impossible to convince otherwise.
Despite being considered beautiful and getting hit on constantly in her university, Chisa is disinterested in romance.


Grand Blue

Nojima is a tall and self-proclaimed handsome young man with long black hair that has two bangs hanging on both side of his face, black eyes and he is always seen wearing black glasses.

Nojima is a self-styled playboy who is largely unsuccessful in attracting a lover. Although he tries to be charismatic, it usually comes off as lame.


Grand Blue

Iori is a young man with a fairly muscular medium build and straight hair that goes down to his neck. His young youthful face sometimes receives remarks about being cute. In the manga his hair is shown to be a dark blue color, however in the anime Iori's hair color can range from pure black to light blue. He has grey colored eyes in colored illustrations from the manga, while in the anime adaptation his eyes are violet colored. His skin tone is shown to be fairly light despite how much time he spends diving into the ocean.
Normally, his attire consists of a hoodie or jacket over a T-shirt. Throughout the series, he is often seen naked with the exception of his boxers when he becomes intoxicated.
In the live action adaptation of Grand Blue, Iori is portrayed by japanese actor Ryo Ryusei .

Iori was first depicted as a relatively normal boy just entering university who wants to lead a normal and peaceful school life. However, after joining the Peek-a-Boo diving club, Iori spent most of his days intoxicated, naked, and partying with the club members until the end of the anime and onward into the manga. He had become rather unorthodox as well, being generally loud and boisterous throughout the whole of the anime and manga series, while still displaying a kind and caring side. An example of such being when he stood up for Aina Yoshiwara when she was being picked on by the Tinkerbell tennis club, and how he defends Kouhei Imamura when he is insulted for being an otaku by Sakurako Busujima . While outwardly Iori appears to be selfish and driven by lecherous desires, it appears that inwardly he cares deeply for those close to him. Never hesitating to show concern for when one of his friends is in danger, and not being afraid to stand up for someone he feels has been wronged. Despite no initial interest and even an aversion due to not knowing how to swim, Iori quickly comes to love diving, describing the activity like a whole different world. Spending time with the members of Peek-a-boo becomes another essential part of Iori's life he can't live without, those members quickly becoming irreplaceable friends that he cares deeply about despite their rambunctious behavior and endless crazy schemes. Over the course of the series, Iori seems to have gained a sort of pride in his ability to hold his liquor down. Shown when he felt insulted as two foreign otaku's challenged both Kouhei and him to a drinking match. Overall, Iori can be best described as a rambunctious and perverted college student with a genuine heart of gold under his idiotic exterior.


Grand Blue

Fujiwara is a young man with short hair. His body is quite muscular. His most notable feature being his stern facial expression.

He stated that his lack of romantic relationships has led him to spend most of his free time at the gym, leading to his muscular body. Like the rest of his friend group, he enjoys AVs, desires to hook up with a woman, and refuses to let anyone within the group one-up him (to the point of sabotaging and torturing).
It is a running gag for Fujiwara to often be cut off from panels, or be absent from them altogether, as he is considered rather plain and forgettable, even among his friend group.


Grand Blue

Kouhei is a youthful man who is relatively lean and muscular. He has bright blonde hair that is swept to the right and dark gold eyes. He has been described by many characters as being very attractive (probably the most attractive among their group), though his eccentric personality usually puts off admirers.
He is usually seen wearing shirts sporting anime characters and when drinking with the diving club, he is usually naked or in his boxers.

Kouhei is a diehard otaku and is considered a lolicon by his friends. He is particularly obsessed with the little sister character trope (explaining his obsession with Shiori Kitahara ). While many are repulsed by his otaku lifestyle, he is indifferent to how he is perceived by others. He is also easily manipulated when bribed with things such as meeting with seiyuus . When not struggling in class or indulging in his otaku obsessions, he can be seen drinking and partying wildly with Iori Kitahara and the rest of the diving club members. Kouhei is quite introverted and cannot speak to newly met people, whether casually or professionally.
Several of his skills can also be attributed to his 2D hobbies, such as cooking, which he claims to be vital for a desirable male to have. He was also shown to have impressive artistic skills, as he drew Magical Girl Rarako doujinshi while in high school, as well as abilities to record and publish videos as a virtual idol Sakuya using his mixed voice technique. [1] [2]


Grand Blue

Kudō is a handsome dark-skinned young man with short light blue hair and brown eyes.
He is often seen wearing Tinkerbell's uniform.

Kudō is an arrogant womanizer who would do almost anything to achieve his goal and he tends to mistreat those whom he considers lowly. However, he does have a kinder side, particularly when he became considerate to easily back down from disturbing Shinji Tokita and Ryuujirou Kotobuki 's quality time with their junior club members [1] , and when he agreed to vote in favor of Peek a Boo for the Izu Fall Festival's Mister Izu Joke Entrant upon hearing of Iori Kitahara and Kouhei Imamura 's intention to use the prize money for their senior's farewell celebration in exchange for their assistance in dealing with Hajime Nojima . [2]


Grand Blue

Maki is young, tanned-skin woman, with yellow, shoulder-length bob hairstyle.

She is a friendly and outgoing person, comfortably chatting with the three new recruits at Dolphin . She is rather immature as she is often easily distracted by certain things during her job as an instructor.


Grand Blue

Nanaka is a very beautiful young woman with waist-length brown hair that has bangs hanging over her face, reddish-brown eyes, a very voluptuous figure with large breasts (just like Azusa Hamaoka ) and Iori Kitahara mentions that she has a "phenomenal ass" just like Chisa Kotegawa .
When not working as an instructor, she is usually seen in casual clothes, like dresses.

Nanaka is a very sweet, caring and nurturing woman who takes the role of the mother hen within the group. She doesn't usually take part in the group's drinking and partying, preferring to observe. Like Chisa Kotegawa , Nanaka loves diving and is a diving instructor. She has a very severe sister complex when it comes to Chisa and the only time in which she sheds her sweet image is when it comes to Chisa, particularly in relation to Iori Kitahara . Whenever Iori is mentioned to be Chisa's boyfriend, Nanaka becomes very hostile, frightening, and threatening, and would even resort to violence if necessary.


Grand Blue

Naomi has shoulder-length blond hair that has bangs covering his forehead, brown eyes and a slight build.

Naomi is a fairly lively person who makes sure everyone has fun while diving.


Grand Blue

Rei is a beautiful and slim woman with chin-length black hair and green eyes.

Rei is a very gentle, lovable and loyal girl on the upseen, but despite having normal good traits, she often succumbs to anger and jealousy, to the point where it becomes abusing her current boyfriend, revealing herself to have a possessive and yanderish side.


Grand Blue

Kotobuki is an imposing man, being significantly taller and more muscular than Iori Kitahara and Kouhei Imamura . He has spiky blond hair that he slicks back when working as a bartender.
His wardrobe usually consists of hoodies, t-shirts, shorts and pants, although he prefers to wear only boxers or be naked when possible.

Kotobuki is described as troublesome by Iori Kitahara as he and Shinji Tokita are usually the ones who initiate the partying and drinking. He is very boisterous and rowdy, although he does take diving seriously. As a bartender, he is very popular, as he does his jobs well and is a good listener when it comes to the troubles of his customers.


Grand Blue

Sakurako is a pretty girl with long fuchsia hair that is tied to a side bun on the left side, fuchsia eyes with long eyelashes and an attractive figure.
Her usual clothing is quite fashionable. She wears a typical waitress outfit at work.

Sakurako considers herself a hardworker when it comes to love. She always tries her best to stay trendy and amiable in front of men whom she has a crush on. She is attracted by pretty guys such as Kouhei and Naomi.
She has a hard time being honest of her feelings. Not even in front of her friends and tell them that she felt depressed after getting rejected by Naomi; she didn't want Iori to see her cry and just leaned her head on his back instead when he tried to cheer her up with a beer.
Sakurako often behaves quite politely in front of strangers and acquaintances. However, she can become sadistic and snarky to people that get on her bad side. Iori is her favorite target for bullying.
She dislikes her last name, as "Busu" means "ugly".


Grand Blue

Sayaka is a woman who has roughly the same build as her daughter, Nanaka Kotegawa . She has a long dark hair that she tied into a ponytail with parted bangs.
Due to the hot climate of Palau, she has tanned skin and always seen with a sunglasses. She's also rarely seen without a lollipop in her mouth.

Sayaka is a serious and straightforward woman who doesn't talk beyond what is necessary and she usually remains emotionless regardless of the situation, but she prone to acts physically.


Grand Blue

Yamamoto is a chubby young man with short red-brown hair that is parted in the middle.
He is mostly seen wearing a plain t-shirt under a sweatshirt and sweatpants.

Yamamoto is really bent on the idea that he needs a girlfriend and he is a complete virgin.


Grand Blue

Tokita is an extremely tall and muscular man, being even more imposing than Ryuujirou Kotobuki . His black hair is kept short and buzzed on the sides and he has thick eyebrows.
He usually wears casual summer wear like t-shirts and shorts, though he would much rather only wear boxers or simply be naked.

Similar to Ryuujirou Kotobuki , Tokita is a rambunctious and noisy man who is often the leader alongside Kotobuki in the drinking and partying activities of the club and often gives a hard time to both Iori Kitahara and Kouhei Imamura as he forces them to drink copious amounts of alcohol. Despite his unrestrained nature while drinking, he takes diving quite seriously and spares no effort to ensure that his underclassmen have the best possible experience when diving.


Grand Blue

Shiori shares her brother's blue hair and can be seen wearing kimonos almost all the time, as per her parents' wishes.

While appearing very sweet and courteous, Shiori masks a more cunning and manipulative side. With no desire to take over the family inn, she pretends to have a brother complex in order to force Iori Kitahara to take over the inn so she doesn't have to. She is highly skilled with technology, shown through the rabbit nanny cam she gave to Iori to keep an eye on him. However, she does show some traits that she does somewhat care for her brother, despite disliking him and his antics.


Grand Blue

Toshio is roughly the same height as Iori. He and Kotobuki share a similar build, although he doesn't seem to be quite as muscular, and he is noticeably tanner than most of the other characters. He has short white hair and is usually seen smiling.

Toshio seems to have a jovial personality and is quite laid back, as he doesn't seem to mind all the havoc that the club members wreck when drinking and partying.


Grand Blue

Ushironomiya always appears with a black vest, white suit, dark-colored tie. He lets his black hair cover his left eye most of the time and slicks the right hair part neatly.

Ushironomiya is an incredibly self centered and flamboyant guy. He is loud, exuberant and focused on elegance for his teaching time. Sometimes, he has the same wavelength of his students, drinking beer with them or interrupting the class (rare) in comedic situations.


Grand Blue

Mitarai is a handsome, thin young man of average height with black that has partially blond (possibly dyed) hair and his eyes mostly appears closed.

At first, Mitarai was depicted as a normal college student in the series, but he was later to be known as a playboy as he tries to flirt with many women that he often goes along with the antics of his friend group consisting of Iori Kitahara , Kouhei Imamura , Shinichirou Yamamoto and Hajime Nojima .


Grashros

Iipin has brown skin and a tattoo shaped sun with hole outside the right eye of his face.

Not much is known about Iipin's personality, except that he's sexually attracted to gourds.

Lulu is very friendly, and kind cavewoman. She's not strong but brave.
lulu as kid she saw dadaa and "tamed" in the past and they start a family years ago, and she's getting pregnant.


Gravity Rush

Alias wears a pinstriped grey suit with a shirt and tie underneath. The shirt's collar bears the mark of a giant serpent. The most prominent feature of Alias' attire is the giant red helmet that completely obscures his face. The lens that serves as his eye is similar in design to the core found on a Nevi, which potentially foreshadowed his connection to the strange creatures. He also has black tassels streaming from the back of his head, similar to a dreadlock ponytail.

Alias doesn't have that much of a personality to speak of; he is simply evil for the sake of being evil. However, it is revealed that Alias was just a persona created by Syd to help Kat gain the trust of Hekseville's citizens in order to prepare her for her eventual encounter with the Destructive Force.


Gravity Rush

The Destructive Force is usually an unseen force to civilization, only appearing as the black ocean below Hekseville. When it does eventually manifest into a physical form however, it resembles a stag mixed with a dragon, giving it a demonic appearance. The stag elements are inherited from Wolp, whom Cai was merged with.

It is a mysterious, incomprehensible, omnipresent force of evil; existing everywhere, it represents chaos, death, decay, and destruction, among other similar aspects. Destruction of everything is its primary goal, and is willing to "bargain" with those who resist it.


Gravity Rush

As one would expect from an angel, Kali is completely dressed in white. Her attire consists of a highly revealing studded top with tasselled sleeves and a large button with a star in the centre, gloves that reach just above her elbows, very high shorts (also tasselled at the ends), a pair of decorative wings on her back, a double belt that act as gun holsters, and a pair of boots that go up to her thighs (though it's possible they are stockings of some sort). She carries a pair of pistols around with her, but she is never seen using them. Part of her angelic attire was a black mask, which was all that remained of Kali when she eventually died.
Kali herself has bleach-blonde shoulder-length hair and eyes that are a pale shade of purple. Her skin has a similar tone to that of a slight sun-burn.

Kali is egotistical and dismissive of gravity shifters. She is opportunistic and treats her superhero status as a way to remain in the limelight, unlike Kat, who helps people for the sake of helping them. She takes a condescending tone when addressing Kat, calling her a "copy Kat" and acting amused at the Gravity Queen's occasional mishaps, but she maintains a superficially cordial relationship with Kat.
When Kat confronted her about her plot with Brahman, however, Kali's façade finally breaks, and she told Kat that she hated her. Her mental state seriously deteriorated thereafter, and she eventually descended into madness.


Gravity Rush

Nushi is a Nevi that is serpentine in its body style. Its head is completely obscured (save for its eyes) by a rocky shell that is impervious to Kat's regular attacks. Its long body is accented with 7 pairs of fins with the tapered ends made of the same rocky material as the mask, and its ends with a tassel-like tail. When under threat, Nushi will extend a set of  turrets along its back between each pair of fins.


Gravity Rush

Raven is a tall, fair/pale skinned young woman with cyan eyes, a moon/sun-shaped marking/tattoo on her chest, and long black hair with a bang that covers the right side of her face that fades to red and reaches past her waist. Her main outfit consists of a revealing black suit with long, detached sleeves with brown bracelets at the ends with black borders, a matching belt with a black jewel, matching accessories under her knees, with the rest revealing her chest, midriff, and hips, showing her panties.
As Sachya, her hair is much shorter and doesn't fade to red, slightly reaching her shoulders, she wears a somewhat, nun-like dress with a white collar and a black jewl over the chest, similar to the on on her belt, as well as black shoes and white socks.
In Gravity Rush 2 and Gravity Rush: The Animation - Overture , her main outfit is slightly changed in a similar manner like Kat's. Her bracelets, accessories, and belt are now light brown with darker brown stripes, and the part showing her stomach is shaped like a diamond, instead of an upside-down triangle.
When brainwashed as Night Gale, the red part of her hair is purple and she wears a white and brown iron mask.

Raven appears to be cold, distant, and indifferent to matters not immediately related to herself, contrasting Kat's outgoing personality. Despite this, Raven is not emotionless, and will display a more fearsome, reckless, impulsive, and impatient side, again contrasting Kat's easygoing outlook. When she learns of Kat's actions of recovering the other parts of Hekseville, she attacks the other shifter, immediately assuming she's working with Bolsey, and doesn't bother to ask about Kat's side of the argument. While seemingly ruthless, Raven does have a kind heart; the only reason she antagonized Kat and kept Hekseville from reuniting its districts was to save the Lost Children and her adopted brother, Zaza, from Boutoume.
After the events of the first game, Raven became much nicer and more outgoing, even playful at times, while holding onto her generally calm demeanor. Her brooding nature is gone, replaced with a curiosity over the new world of Jirga Para Lhao, a willingness to have more fun with Kat, a dry and sarcastic wit, a love of adventure similar to her fellow Shifter, and could even be rather boisterous - usually when food is involved. Instead of apathy over matters not directly affecting her, Raven actively interferes in other people's business, exhibits a sense of awe and wonder at the discoveries of the world, and shows compassion for the downtrodden, all of which ironically she shares in common with Kat.
After the Ark is activated and the children escape from Boutoume, Raven develops into one of Kat's most loyal friends and closest ally over the sequel.
By the epilogue, she now lives in Kat's Pipe House and has become a celebrity in her own right, with legions of fangirls over at Arquebus Academy . Instead of the girl with the crow who put fear in Hekseville, she's now one of its protectors, and acts almost like a mother to many of its citizens.
In Another Story - Raven's Choice , Raven's personality as a child was a contrast of her initial self in the first game. While growing up as Sachya, she was known to be a happy but rather timid girl. Sachya was notably dependent on her older adopted brother Zaza, and followed him wherever he went. After returning to the 50-year future of Hekseville accidentally, Sachya had no one to depend on, until Xii appeared. The revelation harden her as Sachya grew, turning into the cold, aloof brooder in the first game as Raven.


Gravity Rush

Bit appeared in the physical world as a boy wearing a turban and a tattered robe with some red markings in the middle of his forehead, giving him the appearance of a lower class Indian boy. He said that he appears in such a manner in public so he did not raise suspicion.
In his true form, his robe wasn't as unkempt, his,turban became a helmet, and he gained a third eye. Upon closer observation, Bit also appeared to wear a skin-tight body suit under his robes; said suit was adorned with orange accents like his belt and helmet. He also rode on a glowing ball. In both forms, he had dark skin, bright yellow eyes, and the colours brown and orange and very prominent. His true form bears more of a resemblance to Egyptian royalty.

Bit was very emotionless in his demeanour, and is not easily surprised, though he was startled on the odd occasion. He talked with a lot of technological terms, even using the term "system crashes" in one instance.


Gravity Rush

At first glance, Cyanea appeared to be a relatively average looking child. She wore a tattered black dress with red circular patterns all over (said patterns resemble the eyes of the Nevi), black socks with white spots that reach her thighs, and burgundy buckle-up shoes. She also has pale skin, cyan coloured hair, and green eyes. Her appearance as "Awakened" Cyanea didn't change much, except her hair stood on end and her eyes widen into a very blank and empty stare, turning red in this form.

Cyanea displayed a similar sense of naivety as a regular child. She didn't seem interested in what Kat had to say when they first spoke, and was easily terrified by Nushi when it appeared. Cyanea seemed to exhibit similar sleeping habits to a child as well, taking a nap often (though this actually allows the Dream Guardian to take over). "Awakened" Cyanea on the other hand was more akin to a mysterious entity who often spoke in riddles when either addressing Kat's past, or current events.


Gravity Rush

Dusty appears to resemble a starry night sky that has taken a physical shape. Of course, he takes the shape of a cat. When he radiates gravity energy, two bright red "stars" glow (see above image) brighter than all others, giving these the appearance of a pair of eyes.


Gravity Rush

At first glance, Gade looked like a typical elderly man who appeared to be in his late 60's. He had balded on top of his head completely, but he had long grey hair around the back and sides, complete with a long and scruffy beard and moustache. He wore a long pink coat with three large black buttons, baggy trousers with tight cuffs, and blue loafers, though he occasionally wore sandals.

Gade was wise and diplomatic. He would give cryptic, yet still helpful advice to Kat on her adventures, and he would rather see people talk about their differences without resorting to violence. He did not like being spoken down to as if he were just another elderly man, and was quite critical of how the youths treated their elders. He was very vocal about those who tried to harness power that they couldn't control.


Gravity Rush

Like Dusty and Wolp, it appears to resemble part of the night sky filled with stars. While Dusty takes the shape of a cat, and Wolp takes that of a winged stag, Xii itself takes the shape of a crow. Its gender is currently unknown. Xii's presence gives off an ominous vibe, so much so that Raven is bound to be in the vicinity.


Gravity Rush

In the first game, Adreaux is portrayed as your typical scientist; thick goggles with a long white lab coat. In Gravity Rush 2, his appearance remains mostly the same, except for the black collar worn by the Rebels, and some pretty elaborate headgear that covers his ears and mostly obscures his eyes.

When Kat first meets him, he appears to be a high level worker under pressure from his boss. He seems rather desperate for Kat to lend him some assistance in his research, knowing that she will help anyone who asks for it. However, he was using his stress as a front to hide his true intentions; to use Kat as the subject of said research. He is in reality, somewhat crooked, concocting an equally crooked scheme to take Kat out of the picture when D'nelica's secret weapon is eventually unleashed upon Hekseville.


Gravity Rush

Aujean appears to have all of the physical traits of the average middle aged man; average build, very casual attire, and slight signs of ageing. As far as his attire is concerned, he wears a white shirt with a yellow collar underneath a brown jacket that is always open. He wears blue trousers (that appear to be jeans), brown loafers, and a beanie hat that grey coloured with red and yellow stripes at the bottom. He has a small necklace with a simple gold pendant.

Aujean initially holds a firm prejudice against gravity shifters , seeing them as nothing but trouble, but he soon lets it go after Kat proves her worth after restoring the first missing part of Hekseville. Aujean is also very judgemental, as he is quick to judge Kat based on anything she says and does, but he often struggles to find the words he wants to use, sometimes needing some prodding from Eugie. He is relatively short-tempered, as even the slightest criticism of him can cause him to get angry.
Unlike his son, Aujean appears to be destined for mediocrity.


Gravity Rush

In Gravity Rush , Chaz has a more casual appearance, despite being a member of the police force. He wears a red jacket, a black shirt, and a pair of jeans when he is first seen, and his hair is a bit of a mess. In Gravity Rush 2 however, Chaz has a much more professional look, since he is now a Lieutenant on the Hekseville police force. His hair is now slicked back, and he wears a navy blue suit with an off-white collared shirt and a red tie underneath.

Chaz is extremely uptight and by the book, and yet highly dedicated to his police work with a sharp attention to detail, making him somewhat of a foil for Syd's carefree behavior. He also has a very defeatist attitude when it comes to failure, even if his success would have probably been impossible.


Gravity Rush

Kish looks like your average street thug; quite burly in stature, shows off his arms with a sleeveless waist coat, and headgear one would wear to signify that they are part of a gang. Said headgear obscures his eyes though, so his face is never fully seen. He also wears black gauntlets, shoulder pads, and knee-high boots with red cuffs near the top. His main attire seems to be a one-piece suit ending in baggy leggings of some sort, with a blue sleeveless waist coat over the top it.

As the former leader of a street gang, Kish commanded a lot of respect from his peers. Initially, he acted rather thuggish towards Kat when they first met, but as demonstrated in the Spy DLC, he was willing to allow newcomers to join the Snakerabbits if they could beat him in two air boat races.
After the Snakerabbits disbanded, Kish had become more accustomed to living a normal life, but the days with his gang hadn't left him as he was still willing to lend Kat a helping hand when she needed it.


Gravity Rush

In terms of the doll's design, Pandora appears to be based off of a toddler, as evidenced by the red frock and bonnet, small build, and lack of hair on its head.

Pandora also features strange markings running down the middle of her head.


Gravity Rush

Adicca's appearance is noted to be somewhat flashy, being interpreted as dressing like a rich man even by the citizens of Pleajeune . He wears blue dress trousers and a blue jacket over a white and blood orange dress shirt and red tie, and has thin square frame glasses. His blond hair is parted to one side.

He is extremely passionate in his loyalty to Dr. Brahman, going as far as singing his praises and hailing him as the future unprompted to anyone who will listen. Otherwise, he is very work-oriented even with Brahman, often opting to get down to business and stick to schedule when it comes to operation, coming off as fairly curt.


Gravity Rush

Fi has a slim build, black medium- length hair, and purple eyes. His attire consists of a black wrap shirt with short sleeves, skin tight white trousers, and black knee-high boots. He also wears a dual necklace with three golden beads, and large pale gold bands on both his lower arms. As a sign that he is part of the Sun family, Fi also bears the lion sigil on his right hand. He carries a yoyo of sorts with him, which he uses as a whip.

Fi is silent and reticent, yet firm and prideful, possessing a level of honor his step-brother lacked. As a martial artist, he always adheres firmly to his principles, even when such principles place him in opposition with his step-brother. Deceit and foul play are among Fi's pet peeves, to where upon discovering Vogo's deceit in the target competition, Fi immediately demanded a rematch and challenged Kat to a game of B'oarack. Very rarely does Fi show any kind of emotion.


Gravity Rush

Vogo's most distinguishing features are the long dark brown hair and moustache, the latter earning him the nickname "Moustache" from Kat. He also has a light stubble around his face, and his eyes are the same colour as his skin, albeit slightly darker. His attire includes a couple of necklaces, but most notably a large trench coat with pattern shoulders which he leaves open. Vogo does not wear a shirt underneath his coat.

Vogo has a scheming personality and is willing to do anything to get ahead, even if it means sabotaging rivals. He believes this is a virtue and that the world is a dog-eat-dog place where he cannot afford to let his guard down. Vogo has demonstrated that he is not above selling out his allies to save his own hide, such as when he sold out Kat while she was doing some sleuthing for him. He decides to become a more legit merchant after his brush with death. He is crafty as well, as even the simplest method of distracting Kat for even a split second gave him enough time to bolt after a tainted shipment is uncovered.


Gravity Rush

Xicero is pretty tall, dark-skinned elderly man with a long white moustache and split beard. He is also completely bald. As for his attire, he wears a long white robe, with head and shoulder decoration that seems typical of Eto residents.

Xicero doesn't get very much screen time before he dies, but from what little screen time he did have, he seemed to have a calm demeanour, particularly towards Queen Alua, though this was most likely out of obligation due to being one of her royal servants. He is shown to be remorseful over his actions a century prior that kicked off the series, and he was willing to make amends for his misdeeds.
A hundred years ago however, he was perfectly willing to turn on his peers when their ideals clash with his own. This is demonstrated by shoving Queen Alua off of a narrow walkway for being a weak leader, and stabbing Syd in the back for trying rescue her. It is not known if he was like this towards anyone else, however.


Gravity Rush

Laurent was supposed to resemble your typical good-looking western movie star. Laurent is about 6'1" (185 cm) tall.

He operates as a Robin Hood of sorts, only targeting the corrupt and criminal, who obtain their wealth by unrepentantly harming honest people, for his scams; he prefers to expose his victims for their crimes and use the profits from his scams to help honest and underprivileged people.

Great Teacher Onizuka

Anko is a brash and rude kid. She is a bully, often threatening and hazing Yoshikawa. She is also shown to be a spoiled kid, abusing her parent's positions to get away from trouble.
She mellows down as the story went on, even reporting Aizawa's plot. In Episode 39, it was revealed that Anko was once a bully victim who was bullied by her own brother Yuichi when they were children in the past and was the one who witnessed her father who strictly scolds her brother for his lackluster grades, leading her brother to bully her by snapping her doll's neck as a way for blaming her for his troubles. Her brother's bullying had led her to become a bully.
As the manga progresses, she has seemingly dropped her brash attitude, most definitely when Yoshikawa is around.


Great Teacher Onizuka

Azusa is a beautiful pale-skinned young woman with neck-length brown hair and brown eyes.

Azusa is a responsible woman who may initially seem shy, quiet and perfectly ordinary, but, as the story progresses. It's revealed she can be determined and bold (even though clearly not to Eikichi Onizuka 's level) if she feels she is defending something important. There were times when she even put her job at stake to help Onizuka, slowly showing his influence in her. Her moral is high, and she admires Onizuka because he acts on his beliefs and stands his ground even when the circumstances are against him. She envies how much fun he has as a teacher since she didn't have confidence in her teaching until he assured her she had taught something important even to him and is known to get upset, offended and argumentative. Fuyutsuki takes great pride in her role as a teacher, placing great emphasis on being a teacher to educate and not to get a paycheck.
She has difficulty with the female students in her class due to all the boys in her class having crushes on her but brings them around fairly quickly after Onizuka's advice.


Great Teacher Onizuka

Onizuka is of average height, has brown eyes, short hair that is dyed blond, and pierced ears. Onizuka is a chain smoker, rarely seen without a cigarette in his mouth. Unlike most anime, where the protagonist's outfit remains the same, Onizuka's outfit constantly changes. He's well known for having a wide variety of costumes.
Onizuka is very athletic: being able to bench press 150kg (approximately 330 lbs.). He is a second dan black belt and was a college karate champion. Also, he has stated a number of times that he follows a daily training routine, which includes 500 pushups, 1000 pull ups, and 2000 Hindu squats.

Onizuka appears at the Mizuki household with a sledgehammer.

Onizuka's abnormal strength is displayed various times throughout the manga; his fearsome power is used to solve many of his problems as well as his students' problems. Onizuka also has an extremely durable body; he has survived multiple falls off of the school rooftops in order to save students and even another teacher. He is always seen traveling via his motorbike (a Kawasaki 750 Road Star Z2); remaining passionate for bikes since his experience as co-leader of the biker gang Oni-Baku .

Onizuka is a very presumptuous and vulgar man, which often leads him into trouble. Although he is very hormonal when it comes to girls, he is still a virgin and seems to be unable to get a girlfriend. He likes sexy women to the point of even sexually tempting Nagisa Nagase ( Ryuji Danma 's girlfriend) without caring that his friend was right behind him. He is often referred to as a pervert and has a fetish with smelling young ladies' fresh panties in their drawers. Onizuka is also unashamed of the state of untidiness of his home and the fact that many porn magazines lie around his house.
Onizuka's behavior is akin to that of a child. After finding out that Hajime Fukuroda has a secret longing for the academy's students, he made him into one of his pranks' main targets, which consists of hitting him with water rockets.
Despite all this, Onizuka can be very serious when the moment asks for it. To solve problems, he will surely take the most weird and unexpected (and often the hardest) route, but also the most epic. Depending on one's point of view, he could be considered a fool or a genius. He never stops surprising the people around him with his behavior, actions, and decisions, except for Ryuji, who has known him for a very long time. Despite this, the school's principal, Ryoko Sakurai , deeply trusts him.
As for being a teacher, Onizuka is very eccentric, be it his methods of teaching or the way he dresses.
Onizuka loves eating, in particular sushi. On one occasion , he purchased three orders of Otoro (fatty tuna) and even asked for a Sushi Boat. However, he didn't have enough money to pay for it and ran away.
