When Ichinose suggests the group to cooperate and clear the exam through the first outcome. Other students, including Kiyotaka, agree but Machida from Class A rejects the offer and instead proposes a strategy Katsuragi has come up with: to not talk at all until the exam is finished so that there won't be a traitor among the group and allow the points to be equally distributed among the classes. Ichinose argues the strategy is benefiting Class A the most since it would cause the position of the classes to be unchanged and help them keep the lead. However, Machida stubbornly refuses and says he and his classmates will continue staying silent and not take part in the group discussions.
When Manabe and her friends were persistently trying to take pictures of Kei to confirm their suspicions about Kei bullying Rika, Kei turns to Machida for help, who then tells Manabe to stop forcibly taking photos of Karuizawa and that it would be better to talk with Rika to confirm the story making Manabe withdraw. Similarly, when Kei asks to join Machida during their group meetings for the Cruise Ship Special Test , Machida agrees and assures to help her if anything happens.
Kōji later appears during Event Selection Exam where he is chosen to play in the Basketball event along with Shigeru Toba , Masumi Kamuro , Naoki Shimizu , and Hayato Kitō against Susumu Makida , Minami Setsuya , Kanji Ike , Ryōtarō Hondō , and Kayano Onodera from Class D .

Manabu is a tall, well-built with short black hair that is swept to the left, violet eyes and square-rimmed glasses.
He's usually seen wearing a standard school uniform and he has also been seen wearing swim trunks when he is at the pool.

Manabu is a vastly intelligent and serious man who was very dedicated to his duty as student council president. He holds his role in high regard, displayed through his belief that his reputation could be tarnished if it was discovered that Suzune Horikita was in D-Class, the lowest class.
He does not tolerate excuses as he couldn't believe or accept his sister's words that her placement in D-class wasn't her fault. With no remorse, he almost went as far as attempting to assault Suzune, showcasing his violent side, before Kiyotaka Ayanokōji intervened. He quickly tried to take his fury out on him, but his strikes were easily brushed off by the latter. After the battle, rather than apologize to his sister, he reprimanded her anti-social nature and told her to work harder if she didn't want to be in the lower classes of the school.
He appears to enjoy complex social situations, as shown when he smirked at the complaint against Ken and when he informed Sae Chabashira why he was present at the hearing. Despite his serious outlook and reputation, he is not above giving praise to those who impress him, shown through his interactions with Arisu Sakayanagi and Kōhei Katsuragi about their success on the recent tests. This attitude appeared again when he complimented Kiyotaka after holding his own in a battle with him. He seems to have developed a degree of respect towards Kiyotaka as his actions have caught his eye, demonstrated when he hinted that Kiyotaka intentionally entered D-Class believing he is hiding what he is fully capable of and becomes disappointed when Kiyotaka does something that doesn't live up to his expectations, such as the events with Ken's hearing. However, he was willing to let Kiyotaka become part of the student council due to seemingly admiring his talents and although his offer was turned down initially, did not give up on trying to recruit Kiyotaka.

Maya is a teenage girl of average height with upper-back length brown hair that has bangs hanging on the left side, and blue eyes. She is considered attractive by her male peers who expressed jealousy towards her association with Kiyotaka.
She opted for a laid back, carefree appearance by wearing a thin orange cardigan with the sleeves rolled up, with a loose tie around her neck.
During swimming class, she wore a swimsuit. In the survival test, she wore a tracksuit.

The depths of Maya's character haven't been fully explored, but she appears to be a friendly and cooperative person as she was willing to participate in the class introduction. She is considered to be one of the Class leaders for the girls after Karuizawa due to her influence and popularity in Class D. Because of that, she takes great care of her image. For instance, only seeking Kei for advice as she did not want others to know she was a late-boomer on the topic of romance.
She apparently crushes on boys who impress her such as when she openly clung to the arm of Kiyotaka Ayanokōji after he showed off his athletic prowess and even flirted with him by calling him "handsome and cool" as well as asking if he has a girlfriend. At first she only came to him because he could run fast and that if Kei didn’t had Hirata, she would have gone for him. However, she began to foster authentic romantic feelings for him after getting to know him better. She told Kei that she never had a boyfriend or a date before and thus, sought her out for advice and assistance. She made the effort to do up her hair and don a fragrance, hoping that it would increase the chance of Kiyotaka accepting her.
Throughout her first date, she was extremely nervous but thoroughly enjoyed the time spent with her crush. She was crestfallen as Kiyotaka didn’t seem to be enjoying their date together but brightened up after he said that he doesn’t smile at all and that he did enjoy their time together even if he doesn’t show it. She also prepared a gift for him beforehand but kept it after he rejected her. She thanked him for the fun day and he felt terrible for rejecting her but knew that it was for the best after evaluating her worth to him.
She confessed to Kiyotaka after the double date during Christmas, but was rejected and ran away crying. They promised each other that they will hang out again in the future and wants to see each other again but Sato couldn’t hold her feelings and excused herself first as she didn’t want him to see her in a pathetic state.

Her friends summarised that this could only had happened if she had come to terms with the rejection showing an immense amount of willpower to move on. That said, she still harbors feelings for Kiyotaka and has admitted that she finds him way cooler and hotter than Hirata, not holding against Kei for liking the same person. She still feels conflicted that her best friend was in a relationship with her crush but decided to uphold their secret and support them in whatever way she can.
After a while, she became more accepting and even rekindled her best-friend relationship with Kei. However, she made it clear to her that she is still very much in love with Kiyotaka and will take him for herself if Kei ever chooses to break up with him and go for another male. She is happy to hear their relationship progression and even teases Kei often on their development. She also knows when to cut back on her quips. On one occasion, Kei was upset about her earlier comments, she soon apologised and recognised that Kei's feelings were authentic and that she has no intention of cheating on him.

Mio is a teenage girl of average height who has short blue hair. Her hair has a single strand of hair sticking up, and she has purple eyes.
She is usually seen wearing the school uniform with a blue bowtie and orange shirt. Like all the other first years, she wore the red tracksuit during the special island exam period.

Mio prefers acting alone to socializing, which is one of the reasons why she is often isolated inside of her class. [1]
Unlike her peers, she doesn't seem to enjoy the violence inflicted on others, as shown when she flinched after Kakeru Ryūen smashed a glass bottle on the head of Daichi Ishizaki, or when Albert Yamada was ordered to beat Daichi and the others for their failure in attempting to get Ken Sudō expelled. [2] She made it clear that she disapproved of their cruelty and wanted them to stop their actions.
She doesn't enjoy being insulted, as demonstrated when she told off Kakeru for treating her like a plaything when he made advances on her. She appears to not like being pitied, as shown when she angrily slapped away the hand of Kiyotaka Ayanokōji when he was trying to help her up after she was knocked to the ground. [3]
Because of her time with Kakeru, she expects mistrust and deception, or even accusations towards herself. She told off Kiyotaka and his group to leave her alone when they enquired about her. [4] However, she can be surprised, such as when people actually give her the benefit of the doubt, for example, she was caught off-guard when Kiyotaka stated he trusted her after some panties were stolen from the girl's tent during the island exam. [5] She was so shocked at his belief in her she nervously blushed while thanking him for it. She is also somewhat curious, as she showed interest when Kikyō Kushida and Haruki Yamauchi commented on how incredibly close Suzune Horikita and Kiyotaka were lately.

Nagumo is a tall, fair-skinned teenager with light blond hair and light blue eyes. Kei Karuizawa says that he doesn’t lack in the looks department but to her he is not someone who can rival the likes of Kiyotaka Ayanokōji .

Nagumo is a leader who likes to rule through an iron-fist, and is kind of a man who would expel anyone who tries to oppose him. Manabu Horikita suspects him for expelling 7 out of 12 students from the second year that had Nagumo involved in one way or another. He considers Manabu as his rival and keeps on challenging him, also trying to prove that he is better than Manabu. Despite Manabu already graduating, he now targets his little sister and takes joy in the fact that she is somewhat now directly under his control after she joined the student council.
It is later revealed by Ikuto Kiriyama that Nagumo promised the second year students reforms where ones who surpasses the boundaries between classes and are capable of making allies from different classes will be pulled up to A-Class. He believes in the ideology of winning the war at the expense of a battle as he lost to Manabu but was also able to drive Akane Tachibana to the point of expulsion.
He is shown to be quite persuasive as he got Honami Ichinose to give up her secret to him without much interaction between them beforehand. Although, this is also due to her gullible and credulous nature. He is also extremely narcissistic, but not to the point of Rokusuke Kōenji . He also likes to make those around him into his "toys", showing his deprave mindset. He is also not afraid to hurt his "toys" or sacrifice them for himself and his benefits such as when he gave Ichinose's secret to Arisu Sakayanagi . He can be livid when things doesn’t go his way such as when Kiyotaka Ayanokōji intervened during his plan to force Honami to become his girlfriend, only to have her saved by Kiyotaka instead.
He is also seen to be attracted to hot girls such as Honami Ichinose and Suzune Horikita and tries to charm them whenever he has the chance. He purposely refers to them by their first name after brief interactions and will take whatever chances to get close to them. For instance, he attempted to force Honami to rely only on him by entering a relationship with him as well as prolonging a hand shake with Suzune and looking at her tantalisingly. He has a reputation and aura of being a womaniser amongst the student body but despite that, some still views him in a good light.
Nagumo also has a tendency to be overconfident at times as shown in the Uninhabited Island Exam where he approached Kiyotaka Ayanokōji without any of his backup Free Groups in I2. Despite this, he is also shown to be calm and calculative as shown in the Mixed Training Camp where he conducted his plan without displaying arrogance nor confidence unlike his latter confrontation with Kiyotaka.

Nazuna is a teenage girl who could be seen as rough-looking [1] (according to Kiyotaka Ayanokōji ) with waist-length chocolate-brown hair that is adorned by a hair pin in the shape of a sunflower on the right side, along with two ordinary hair clips on the same side and purple eyes.
She was seen sporting a school tracksuit with gym trousers; her uniform was zipped up to half to allow her chest breathing space.

Nazuna has rough mannerisms, but she is very well liked and influential within the 2nd years who is laid-back and playful, but she is also dutiful and never forgets to repay a debt made to her. She has a habit of judging people too quickly as seen with Kiyotaka Ayanokōji when she assumed him to be a pitiable flirt, when really he was a good person who retrieved her most precious belonging. [2] She is ashamed and embarrassed with herself for thinking that.
She possesses an amulet to which she cares for very much. She believes it to be an object of good luck, and it give her great mental strength when she has it on her. She claims it be a harbinger of destiny that not only watches over romance, but brings people together in a fated encounter. [2]

Rokusuke is a well-built young man of above average height with straight shoulder-length blonde hair and brown eyes.
He is often seen wearing the standard school uniform.

Rokusuke comes across as arrogant, self-entitled, and overconfident, no doubt due to his family's wealthy status and pedigree. When he was first introduced, he speaks to Kikyō Kushida with a contemptuous and sarcastic gentleman-like way of speaking while refusing to move from his position even though there was an elderly lady in need of a seat.
Rokusuke's egotistical and pompous nature and his inability to work with others can be a foil as it is what landed him in D-Class in the first place but he appears to not pay it any mind. He looks down on his classmates as shown when he taunted Ken Sudō about his imminent possible expulsion after his fight with C-Class. His self-inflated view of himself was further shown when on the cruise, he repeatedly complimented his looks in a mirror and when he refused to dry himself since it was menial work unworthy of him, causing onlookers to scorn at his blatant narcissism.
Unsurprisingly, Rokusuke has a self-serving and vainglorious nature as he later abandoned his class during the survival test so that he would not have to participate in it which caused the class to lose points. He showed no remorse in and after the act, revealing how selfish he can truly be at times. In some aspects, he is quite similar if not worse than Kiyotaka, where he doesn’t like to be disturbed and treasure his own personal time. He also couldn’t care less of what others thinks of him nor does he care what happens to them as long as nothing happens to him.
Unlike the other students in his class, he does not worry himself about earning points as his family can simply buy them for him.
Rokusuke's personality and abilities allows him to be completely unaffected by any sort of attack or threat as he just laughs it off or turns the tables around on his attackers.
Rokusuke has a habit of nicknaming others like:

Kikyō Kushida - Pretty Girl Kiyotaka Ayanokōji - Elevator Boy Ken Sudō - Red Hair Arisu Sakayanagi - Little Girl Kakeru Ryūen - Dragon Boy and Mr. Naughty

Ryūji is a young man of average height with violet-bluish hair and purple eyes.

Not much is known about Ryūji, but he appears to be a diligent student who behaves seriously and he is a very helpful person as shown when he aided Honami Ichinose in the case of Ken Sudō .
He is a friendly person as he does not look down on Class D and gets along with them. He sat with Honami to talk after the survival test and shared a laugh with her about how their class lost after coming in second.
It is shown Ryūji is not the kind of individual who would openly put himself in the limelight. He is described as a man with hardly any words to say, appearing to lack the assertiveness to engage others even while he remains popular with the girls. He doesn't seem to be well-understood by others. However, he is very loyal to a fault and will speak up on behalf of the class's feelings, asking meaningful questions that the rest of his classmates wouldn't do. Let alone that, he can still go out of his way and assert his dominance on those who speak wrongly about his fellow classmates, including ellow classmates, includin, when a rumor was spread negatively about her.
Despite his calm and composed behavior, Ryūji can show his aggressive side to either Kiyotaka or Masayoshi Hashimoto upon finding something suspicious or off with them. When he sees one of his classmates like Honami suffering, Ryūji himself would be faced with a constant state of stress and completely unable to feel relaxed.

Sae is a young woman with long brown hair that is tied in a ponytail with bangs swept to the left, brown eyes, a well-endowed voluptuous body and she is mostly seen with a serious expression on her face, although it does change into a smile on rare occasions. She is described as attractive by several who quickly took pictures of her at a school festival.
Her normal outfit consists of a black blazer with a white polo shirt underneath, a short black skirt with stockings and a pair of black heels, or long suit pants and a pair of white heels. She once wore a tracksuit for the island exam. During the festival, she wore a maid suit and garnered attention from both male students and adults.

As a teacher, Sae is very serious about her job. This was shown when she still made the effort to teach her class although most of them were not paying attention to her lesson. She follows the school rules to the letter which is shown when she bluntly told Ken Sudō that he would be expelled from the school for failing the test. She isn’t attached to her class and only does the bare minimum in aiding them in their endeavours. She prefers to let them fend for themselves and wouldn’t go out of her way to assist them even if they request her assistance. With that said, a few students have caught her eye and made her job more fun than it otherwise would have been.
She has subtle sadistic tendencies and sometimes shows them in public such as when she called her students disappointing after informing them that they wouldn't receive points after they idiotically blew through them in a month and took joy in their anguish and perplexed expressions. She also demanded a large sum of points from Kiyotaka Ayanokōji as part of his deal to prevent Ken from being expelled. She did this because she knew that he didn't have the amount to pay for such a thing and was curious to see what he would do next.
Despite her sadistic tendencies, she has shown some leniency towards the class as well. She gave subtle hints as to why she wasn’t punishing students who were either sleeping or playing on their phones but none of them realized that each of their blatant disregard of the rules were being captured. She was also willing to rescind Ken's expulsion after Kiyotaka and Suzune Horikita upheld their end of the bargain to halt their classmates' fate, showing that she is at least honorable to her word.
She seems to have taken an interest in Suzune and Kiyotaka, as their selfless deed was something she had never seen at the school and wasn’t expecting such an outcome from a class she deemed worthless. She appears perceptive, as she was able to recognize the  depths of Kiyotaka's intelligence and figure out that he was hiding his talents on purpose as he wouldn't be in the lowest ranking class if he was that amazing. She tried blackmailing him to reach Class A after his father requested that he be expelled but he refused to succumb to her threat.

Sae unfazed by Kiyotaka's actions.

She is shown to approach most things indifferently as shown when she was unfazed by Kiyotaka grabbing her by the collar after she ordered him to reach for Class 1-A , not punishing him after the ordeal either. She was also amused by Kiyotaka's refusal to comply with her and his father's wishes to advance even though she previously threatened to expel him. [1]
According to herself, she has lived a life full of regrets implying that there were some terrible events that transpired some time ago. She has been seen smoking a cigarette when by herself, using it as self-medication to reduce her stress. She does give praise when praise is due such as when Kiyotaka played a perfect mellifluous piece on the piano which she admits that even when given a lifetime, she wouldn’t be able to reciprocate such a breathtaking feat that he did so effortlessly.

Satsuki has neck-length blue hair that has a pink hair-clip in the middle and bluish-pink eyes.
She usually wears the female uniform consisting of a long sleeved dark red top with a blue bow at the collar, and a short white skirt with blackish blue trim at the tip.

Satsuki is a friendly girl to those in her peer group but distrustful of those who aren't such as when she immediately singled out the boys as being the prime suspects of Kei Karuizawa 's missing underwear. This is also seen in episode 4 when she believes Ken should've been expelled due to the trouble he caused to the class without getting to know the full picture.
In the light novel, she is said by Kanji Ike to have an "ugly" personality, although this was possibly due to the arguments they shared during the island test. She is shown to be hateful toward anyone who talks negatively about her as she told Kanji to go die after overhearing him talk about how ugly she looked.
Despite this, she can be a forgiving person as she thanked him when he came to her defence against a few upperclassmen who assumed she was glaring at them. As gratitude, she even bought him dinner as a token of thanks.

Shiho's appearance is only depicted in the manga and anime adaptations. In the manga, she has shoulder-length bright colored hair that is tied into pigtails on each sides and either light colored or dark colored eyes.
She is always seen wearing the female school uniform.

Shiho was first introduced in volume 4 , where she got put in the Rabbit group in the Cruise Ship Special Test along with Kiyotaka Ayanokōji , Honami Ichinose , Kei Karuizawa , her classmate Mio Ibuki and others. [1]
During the test, Shiho and her friends, Nanami Yabu and Saki Yamashita who were in the same group, had an altercation with Karuizawa, after the latter was accused of shoving their friend Rika and was demanded an apology. Karuizawa feigned ignorance and used Machida from Class A as a shield, which further pissed Shiho off. After one of their group meetings, Shiho and her group dragged Karuizawa into the emergency stairwell and confronted her about the incident with Rika. Since Karuizawa was obstinate and refuse to comply, Shiho lost her patience and they began making physically bullying her. At this point, Karuizawa started to exhibit unusual behavior from her arrogant self by cowering herself and having ragged breathing. They then grabbed her hair to pull her up and threatened her, which further caused Karuizawa to become shaken. However, they were interrupted by Teruhiko Yukimura and Kiyotaka who had been secretly watching them. Shiho and her friends decided to leave but warned the two guys not to tell anyone about what had just transpired.
Later on, Shiho received many anonymous messages, which were from Kiyotaka, about their feud with Karuizawa. He then suggested ways for them to take revenge on her. She and her group, including Rika, then met Karuizawa who was lured into the ship's basement and started taking out their anger by beating her up and leaving. However, their actions were surreptitiously recorded by Kiyotaka.
In Volume 5 , after the end of the Sports Festival, it was revealed that there was a traitor in Class C who had recorded Kakeru Ryūen 's plan on winning the festival and sent it to Class D. [2] As it turned out, Shiho has been secretly blackmailed by Kiyotaka to be the traitor and she was found out by Ryūen in the next volume . She began trembling with fear when being confronted by him about it, but was forgiven afterwards and told Ryūen about the events that happened on the cruise ship. [3]
In Volume 10 , as Ryūen was in danger of being expelled due to seemingly having the lowest votes from his class, Ibuki and Ishizaki asked Kiyotaka for help to save him. The night before the voting, Kiyotaka arranged for Ibuki, Ishizaki and Honami to meet at his room. They collected over 5 million points from Ryūen and Shiho was chosen as the target to save him, with the help of Hiyori Shiina . Kiyotaka asked Honami to tell her class to give all of their praise votes for Ryūen. In exchange, Ibuki will fill the private points that Class B were missing to save a student from being expelled, with Kiyotaka acting as a witness.
As a result, Shiho received the highest amount of censure votes and was expelled from the school in place of her leader. [4]

Suzune has long black hair with one braid tied with a pink bow as well as gradient red eyes. She is always seen with a stern look on her face. She has a slim but well-endowed body which makes her stand out as being beautiful, even attracting the attention of Ken Sudō and Kakeru Ryūen .
She usually wears the standard school uniform. Outside of school, she wears a striped sundress and a sun hat. She was also seen wearing a white bikini by the pool and a red tracksuit as seen when the first-year level underwent the survival test.
In Volume 11.5 , she cuts her hair short as a mark of her determination to stop following her brother's footsteps, who had earlier told her that he liked her hair long, and that she should keep it that way. Despite the obvious astonishment of her classmates, people like Sudo still finds her charming.

Suzune is a serious, intelligent girl who rarely displays any emotion and generally seems unfazed by most things, as proven when she remained unmoved after being threatened by a boy from Class 1-C . She comes off as a rather cold and distant person to her classmates due to the lack of communication with them as well as her tendency to distance herself and look down on them. Because of this attitude, she is openly honest about many things, which is shown when she admitted having no friends as she thinks that friends would only drag her down, but this began to change as the series progressed.
Suzune possesses an antisocial outlook, which has led her to hardly talk to anyone except Kiyotaka Ayanokōji upon meeting him and to not trust anyone, especially those who tried to befriend her such as Kikyō Kushida . However, unlike Kiyotaka who initially wanted to make friends, she was the opposite of him as she disregarded it, thinking that it was nothing more than a distraction and only thought of getting promoted to the Class A. It is strongly suggested by Kiyotaka and her brother that her attitude and inability to work appropriately with people or her tendencies on focusing too much on her goal was the reason she was placed in Class D.
Suzune is a hard person to convince, as she refused to accept that she was placed in Class D and set a goal to ascend to a higher class, despite it being a unrealistic goal that had never happened in the history of the school. This goal, however, was refuted by her brother, who told her that she has no knowledge of her lack of character, which is substantially holding her back and should just leave the school. She refused to believe that friends were needed to help her though she did convince Kiyotaka to assist in reaching her goal. When Kiyotaka pointed out that her isolation towards others could be why she was placed in Class D, she quickly denied it but appeared to briefly ponder it being a possibility.
While she is generally composed, her fear truly surfaces when she is in the presence of her older brother, who is also the student council president. This is displayed when Suzune does indeed express a sensitive side of sorts towards some issues. She greatly admires her brother, but at the same time, feels inferior to him due to his accomplishments compared to her shortcomings. Suzune was shown to shake in fear of him, as seen in their secret meeting when he nearly attacked her in Episode 2 . This was seen again in Episode 5 , where she found herself unable to talk during Ken Sudō 's hearing and was only able to snap out of it due to Kiyotaka's intervention

A rare time when Suzune shows happiness.

Despite her disdain and cold attitude, it appears she can be a caring person as displayed when she sacrificed 50,000 points to save Ken from being expelled after he failed a test. Suzune explained that she did so to further her own goals but this event and her previous attempts to help him study suggest otherwise. Later, Suzune also defended Ken's case, and while she did criticize him, she firmly declared him to be innocent in the incident. Suzune then displayed this attitude in Episode 7 where she was shown smiling after looking at the email Kiyotaka sent her. Due to the time they spent together, she came to trust Kiyotaka, as she made him one of the two boys in charge of guarding the boys' tent during the uninhabited island exam, after stating that she couldn't believe Yōsuke Hirata by himself. Her trust in Kiyotaka is also displayed by trusting him after discovering she was sick and unable to continue participating in the challenge.
During the final days of the survival test, Suzune appeared to have grown in character as she came to acknowledge the hypocrisy of her previous views of Class D as she realized her actions were the same as that of Class C during her fight with Mio. After she was taken down by Mio and found by Kiyotaka, she finally admitted that she needed allies. Once the survival test was over, in the anime, she thanked Kiyotaka for his help in gaining Class D' trust after giving the credit of their victory in the island challenge to her. This time, she displayed a rare moment of affection, as she was both flustered and shy in thanking him while unable to look him consistently in the eye.
In Light Novel Volume 5 , Suzune understood that she would need to make friends in order to reach Class-A when she saw that she wasn't as useful to her class in the Sports Festival , and even talked to Ken Sudō about what she thought, when Kiyotaka Ayanokōji told her that she was the only one who could bring him back.
She can also be a bit of an airhead as she couldn’t understand why her classmates were so shocked and making a fuss that she cut her hair. As of now, she is still pursuing the path of self-growth and pays no mind or interest in romantic relationships.
She is slowly breaking out of her shell and started to openly communicate with people after understanding the importance of working with others and realizing the limits of working alone. She also displays humility after admitting defeat to Kiyotaka for a mathematical exam. She confessed that she did her best and even defended him against accusations from their classmates. She is also above holding grudges as she proposed an alliance with Ibuki despite their previous encounters.

Takeko has violet eyes and reddish brown hair that is tied up in a pony tail.

Takeko, according to Kiyotaka's first impression of her, is the type that speaks her mind without hesitation. She is a bit of a lone wolf, similar to her classmate Mio Ibuki .

Takuru has brown hair and brown eyes. He is wearing the school uniform.


Classroom of the Elite

Takuya has brown hair and green eyes, along with a usual gentle appearance. He is commonly shown wearing the standard male school uniform.

On the exterior, Takuya is described to be a person who is very soft-spoken and gentle towards the people he meets. He is depicted as reliable, charming, and altruistic. He is also courageous, as he could speak directly with Kazuomi Hōsen and guide the conversation peacefully, despite Hōsen's violent nature. Takuya also seems to hold a certain level of attention towards Kikyō Kushida . His true self, however, is someone who harbors a much darker personality, as he is described to be "a devil with a kind face" by Kushida herself. He doesn’t like resorting to physical violence, but isn’t above using it as a last resort. Despite being sent to the school for a mission, he only truly cares about beating Kiyotaka Ayanokōji as he believes that's the only surefire way to prove himself to be superior to him.
He appeals to students' desires to manipulate them into relying on him and his sole decision-making. This is demonstrated when he manipulated Riku Utomiya into teaming up with him by expelling his classmate and framing it on Hōsen , when he used Kushida by making her think he would help her expel Ayanokōji and Suzune Horikita and when he offered to help Maya Satō get together with Ayanokōji . Yagami's true character is very dark in contrast to his façade, even Ichika Amasawa , the only other character that has known him since the White Room, is afraid to blink around him in fear of possibly getting assaulted.
When the result of his imminent expulsion became clear, his true personality came to light. He completely disregarded his old facade, lashing out at teachers, students and friends alike, making it clear that he will physically take down anyone who steps in his way. He also carries an aura of continued arrogance and pride after his image was shattered, showing how much he believes in his own abilities.
He was revealed to be from the White Room, so he is aware of other White Room students such as Kiyotaka Ayanokōji and Ichika Amasawa . This coincides with his goal to force Kiyotaka to return to the White Room by any means necessary, making him one of the most dangerous individuals in the school.

Teruhiko is a young man of average height with grey hair, red eyes and round glasses.
He is usually seen in the standard school uniform.

Originally, Teruhiko looked down on the rest of the class 1-D and is not athletic at all. Later on, he accepts what he is missing and tries to help two certain students study for a test.
He does not like his first name Teruhiko, given to him by his mother who left their family. He prefers the name his father gave him: Keisei ( 啓誠 , Keisei ) .
He is rather dull when it comes to romance since he never experienced such a thing. For him, romance is just some "vulgar world things".
He is also seems to be a type of guy that easily loses his temper, such when he met Sakayanagi and declared that his class is going to win, and when he found out about Kiyotaka's true ability with the fact that he's hiding he's true ability.

Tomonari is a man who takes his job seriously. He is the English homeroom teacher of Class A , and is well respected by his students. He is a man who sticks to his morals without compromise and is dedicated to helping students. He was angry when he heard from Kiyotaka that Tsukishiro was responsible for Suspension of Chairman Sakayanagi , already having opposed the new Chairman due to conflicts within ideals that he was willing to stand up for. He is one of the few teachers who was willing to take a stand against Tsukishiro as well, even before Kiyotaka had confronted Sae and him, showing that he is a very virtuous person.

She is seen so far wearing formal school attire consisting of a white blouse paired with a buttoned crimson blazer and blue ribbon, and a short-length white sailor striped pleated skirt.

Tsubasa is a very polite girl who speaks in a calm and respectful tone to whoever she is speaking to. However, she also has a confident side to her as she says she will never submit to violence, with a strong will in her eyes to Kiyotaka Ayanokōji. She also has no hesitation saying that he was a wicked and filthy person.
She also happens to be a Bokkuko .

Tsukishiro is a middle-aged man described to be in his forties with black hair, usually appearing wearing a suit. During the exam, he wore a tracksuit. He is frequently described as having a thin smile on his face.

Tsukishiro is shown not above of using threats and abusing his authority. This was seen when he offered points to ensure Kiyotaka's expulsion and gave a silent warning to Honami Ichinose to keep quiet about what she had overheard. He is quite clever, as to avoid being exposed, he replaced the security camera footage with a fake video.
When he first approaches Kiyotaka and Arisu, he gives off the impression of being a pleasant individual. However, this was only a facade, as he quickly shows himself to be ruthless by knocking Arisu down and pinning Kiyotaka to a wall to catch his attention. Tsukishiro also insulted the young man for not living up to reputation, though this was only to provoke him but it served to fail. During his discussion with Kiyotaka in Volume 11.5 , he makes blatant contradictions to himself, showing his skills in deception by using obvious lies mixed in with his true thoughts. During the beach exam, he tried to overwhelm Kiyotaka with his ally Shiba by his but didn't expect interference. After he was defeated by Kiyotaka, he acknowledged him as a real monster. Even so, his ability to somewhat keep up with Kiyotaka at a much older age shows that he has immense combat knowledge and training.

Tsukishiro is described in Volume 0 as a jack-of-all-trades who has influence in both of the major political parties. Some of his capabilities listed include personal protection and information services. When Professor Ayanokōji ( Kiyotaka Ayanokōji 's father) first contacts Tsukishiro, he is shown to have done immense research on Ayanokōji Atsuomi's life, demonstrating his capabilities in gathering information. During this meeting, it is also revealed that Tsukishiro has killed a man, and likely a few others in his lifetime. Later, in the same volume, Tsukishiro states a phrase to Atsuomi referring to Kiyotaka's life that sounds like pity, but Atsuomi quickly dismisses that Tsukishiro would ever possess such feelings. [1] Kamogawa once described Tsukishiro as having a scary smile, implying that he may keep the expression for the purpose of sowing unease into others rather than as a guise of amicability.

As a student of the upper classes, Yahiko comes off as rather egotistical and condescending to those of the lower classes even calling them trash.

Yukitsu appears to be in his late thirties to early forties and is seen with a common haircut for short-haired men.
In Episode 4 , he is seen wearing the standard mall uniform, white long sleeves underneath a red coat and embellished with a blue necktie. During his attempted sexual assault against Airi Sakura , he didn't wear his jacket but was seen instead with a white shirt, blue tie and brown pants.

Yukitsu is a firm believer in fate and destiny, up to the point where he felt he could completely bypass someone else's privacy if he deems it to be the work of fate. This was seen when he deluded himself into thinking that the internet idol he was a fan of had enrolled at the school near the place he worked just for him.
He appears to have little to no morals as shown when he stalked and attempted to force himself onto Airi Sakura , an underage girl. He was even smiling through the disgusting act and was enjoying her struggle, amplifying his perverted nature. He also possessed an abusive and forceful attitude towards her 'sacred' reaction. He showed no remorse for slamming her arms hard against the ground so as to prevent her from calling for help and cutting off her escape route.
Additionally, it is shown that despite being rejected by Airi, he immediately reacts repentantly, believing that he was being deliberately lied to. He was so delusional that he shouted out vituperative insults at her and screamed for her to confess. When these words failed to give him his desired outcome, he resorted to breaking down in tears as he was taken away for his actions, denying all allegations made against him.

Yume is a teenage girl of average height who is normally seen wearing her school uniform.


Classroom of the Elite

Yōsuke is a young man of average height with blonde hair and brown eyes. He was also described to be handsome by his female classmates.
He is often seen wearing the standard school uniform, but when outside of school he wore a striped shirt when he and Kei Karuizawa ran into Suzune Horikita over summer break.

Yōsuke exudes a very mature and great friendly vibe in the presence of other people and is rarely seen getting mad. He is seen to have a charming and charismatic personality. His warm nature has led to the majority of the class to recognize him as their class representative. He obtained the trust of the class while also attracting the attention of several girls. Most notably Kei Karuizawa , where he accepted a relationship with her to help safeguard her against any sort of bullying that might come to Kei. After she shared her past with him, he empathized and knew that she was afraid of her traumatic experience in middle school recurring once again in high school, and thus, he allowed her to use his reputation as an added precaution against bullies.
Hirata emanates his thoughtfulness personality often. For instance, he covered for Kiyotaka Ayanokōji after he found Karuizawa's underwear on him, believing his explanation of not being the thief as he wouldn't do such a thing, despite not knowing him well or having evidence to prove otherwise.
He displays adequate leadership and diplomatic abilities as shown in the survival test where he managed to get everyone to agree to a consensus after a brief argument over provision and points by voicing his opinion.

Yōsuke falls into a state of depression.

Despite all the positive qualities he displays in his class, he can be quite prone to cracking under pressure, as shown when he became horrified after the survival book was burned and was so stunned that he couldn't understand what caused it to happen. He only snapped out of it when he heard Kiyotaka stating that his class was asking for help and needed him to give them orders. He can be extremely naive at times as he was the only one adamantly defending Yamauchi against his other classmates after it was revealed that he betrayed them for Class A and was looking to expel Kiyotaka. He failed to recognise how much influence he truly holds and was vehemently told Horikita that he will give his criticism vote to her under the rationale that she was disrupting their class tranquillity when she unceasingly questioned Yamauchi. Even though Yamauchi was considered the least valuable member of their class and was a traitor, he unpretentiously told the class to cast their criticism vote on him instead which would lead to expulsion despite knowing that the class views him with greater importance. He has went against his class more than once and openly showed his dissatisfaction and anger to his classmates after he couldn’t handle all the anxiety bottled up in himself. On one occasion, Kiyotaka straightforwardly and unabashedly repeated his failures and told him to stop trying to find excuses to run away. This caused him to break down and realise his mistakes while also jokingly refer to Kiyotaka for being mean.
In the light novels and the flashback scene of anime, it is revealed that his personality stems from the guilt of abandoning his childhood friend who suffered from severe bullying without Yōsuke being there. Through this experience, he has tried to solve things using an alternative way rather than fighting even if it's not the best solution. He also knows when to draw the line when helping others such as Kei and will evade confrontation whenever violence seems unavoidable. Yōsuke is also shown to be incredibly perceptive, as he slowly deduced that Kiyotaka was the one orchestrating their class successes and not Suzune Horikita. He has also shown no interest in women yet and on the topic of romance as a whole. He told Kiyotaka that he genuinely believes that this would continue being the case even as he progress through life.


Clockwork Planet

Amaretto is described as a slender young man with a black rubber suit. As revealed in Clock 11 , he was a man with his purple hair brushed to the right that partially covers his glasses. During his final exploration with Vermouth and Strega , he wore a dark black rubber suit to blend in with the darkness, relying on with short-distance resonance gears to handle communication.

Amaretto was brash and prone to sarcasm, referring to Vermouth derisively as Vermouth-senpai without much respect. After he had cracked the lock barring their way, he "thanks" his team for their patience in a voice dripping with sarcasm. He also has a foul mouth, using sexual terms when referring to clockwork he was working on.
He is not foolhardy however, and is able to immediately recognize when fleeing is the best option. As shown when Vermouth's team discovers the Yatsukahagi, he is the first to propose leaving with the information they had acquired, recognizing the scale of what they were dealing with was far beyond their capabilities.

She keeps her black hair in a bob and has bright red eyes. Her appearance is that of a 12 year old child, and her height is less than 140 cm.
While in her special mode, her hair grows longer until it reaches her feet and the color will change into a bloody red color, she wears a set of black armor and a neckless in the shape of a cube, which changes shape to a sphere with spikes (kind of like a flail ) in her Bloody Murder form, she was also wearing a black control mask that matched her Bloody Murder form over her face before Naoto and RyuZU saved her.

Originally AnchoR suffered from self-loathing, stemming from her designated mission of One That Destroys. Following her defeat at the hands of her "parents" and eldest sister , she was taught that breaking things apart was okay if they were broken, as it made it easier to reassemble them into something useful. Following such, she becomes a lot more confident, even extending a hand to her wayward sister TemP and remarking on the similarities of their paths.

Conrad is an elderly man. He wears a suit and a gear shaped monocle. His hair, mustache and beard have all turned grey, showing his age.

Conrad is a wise man, noticing the consequences of the Meister Guild being forceful in extracting what they need. Nonetheless, he is a man of great morality, choosing to remain behind with Marie to fix the anomalies and defend them from attack despite his own life being in danger.
In spite of being one of the veterans, Conrad prefers to take a step back and dispense invaluable advice to his juniors.

Given that Hannes achieved the rank of Meister and is well-acquainted with and trusted by Marie, it can be said that his skills are top notch.

Hannes is a very dutiful man. He also accepts skill with grace, showing no ill will towards Marie despite her possessing more skill at a younger age.


Clockwork Planet

Kiu Tai Yu is a man slightly shorter than Halter. His left eye appears to be slanted downwards, while his right eye always remains wide open. Combined with his wide grin with teeth bared, Kiu gives off an appearance of insanity. He keeps his hair brushed neatly over his eye.
Kiu wears a set of large earrings with a suit embroidered with grotesque gear and teeth patterns. Adorning his hand are a few rings.

Kiu Tai Yu is a flamboyant and erratic man. His reaction to all events and prompts border on insanity. When Halter told him that having guards pointing weapons at a guest's head was rude, Kiu's reaction was to execute them all on the spot. This also led him to desecrate Shirley's corpse after Halter coldly told him he had killed the woman who made the drink he liked, blaming her death rather than his own choice of killing her.
He is also a man who leaps from thought to thought and moment to moment, talking down to those he believe are beneath him yet choosing not to antagonize those who are clearly more powerful, though this does cause both Halter and TemP to regard him with extreme distaste.
This personality is best exhibited in his "plan" of getting Second Epsilon to restructure Shangri-La Grid for him. He threatened and coerced Naoto Miura to work for him, paid off both Vermouth and Vainney Halter whilst also threatening them, yet never bothered to worry about them betraying him. When he lost control of both Arsenal and Shangri-La, he asserted to Halter that he had no interest in running such a Grid anyways. He is an over the top hedonist who lives for the moment, and despite being initially panicked that Halter shot him, upon hearing the reason being that it was because Kiu deprived him of Shirley's drink he accepted it and died with grace.


Clockwork Planet

He has black, neatly combed hair, and wears glasses. He wears a white shirt and a tie with a black suit.

He is an amoral man, finding nothing wrong with killing the 20,000,000 people of Kyoto . Being a dependent of the Vacheron Family , he follows them unquestioningly.


Clockwork Planet

Marie is a French girl from Europe. She has emerald green eyes, thin pink lips and long blond hair which is tied into two bunches with red ribbons.
She is often seen dressed in a deep-blue collar shirt with a pink tie, short denim shorts and a beige summer overcoat with blue patterns and linings.

Marie is a mature young girl for her age who takes things very seriously, especially in her work.
Due to her genius intellect, many others believe her to be the smartest clockmaker in history, and would shoot down anyone who interrupts her. Despite this gap in skill, she is a capable team player and works well with the rest of the Meister Guild , choosing to camp out alongside them rather than stay in luxurious hotels. Together, they're able to effectively fix many problems faced. Furthermore, she doesn't care about her high status and easily threw away her Meister title in order to fake her death. Similar to her fellow genius Naoto , she takes pride in her work and would sometimes argue with those who criticize it.
Although she didn't believe in any gods named by humans, she recognized that during crucial situations prior to the Kyoto Purge she had been given revelations. In such, she acknowledges that there was indeed an existence beyond that of humans.
She is a person with a very strong moral sense as shown when she wouldn't leave Kyoto and promised to fix its Core Tower in order to save millions of lives. She is not a hypocrite, as after bashing the Army for abandoning a hopeless situation, instead of running and weeping she chose to continue attempting repairs instead of accepting it as a reasonable loss.
In spite of her impressive pedigree and her own prodigious skill, Marie is still a child, and needs the support of Halter and the other members of Second Upsilon . She is rather brash, though considers herself to be a lot more forgiving compared to her sister, noting that her sister would execute people in cold blood while she herself could not do it. When Naoto seemingly perished, Marie underwent a lot of distress, culminating in stress vomiting. Halter often needs to remind her that she can let herself relax and enjoy life as a kid does.
She prefers to eat junk food and candies, especially chocolate, despite her having access to other delicious foods and services. This is because she expends much energy while working and needs an easy method to replenish it. Apart from such, she also has a longing for absinthe from Paris.


Clockwork Planet

Naoto is a boy with pale grey eyes (blue in the manga) and blue hair.
He wears a blue hoodie with a blue shirt inside of it and dark blue pants, all patterned with designs of clockwork. He is almost always wearing a pair of neon-green noise-cancelling headphones.

Naoto is obsessed with Clockwork and is often oblivious to his surroundings. He is described as a hardcore machine maniac / nerd / junkie, who would rather spend time tinkering and observing their designs than with humans. This is to such an extent that he himself recognized by the time he entered middle school that he was different. Due to this, he is often bullied at school. He is amused by the depths to which his bullies stooped, remarking he had practically earned an achievement titled, "Complete Set of Bullying".
Naoto prefers automata over humans as unlike humans, the perfection of a well-crafted automaton trumps the imperfections of the living. Furthermore, they do not age. Noting that humans age and lose their beauty, he dismisses any possible interest in girls including Marie as he considered them "flesh-bags". Furthermore, he outright refused her request to help her fix Kyoto 's Core Tower , citing that he does not see why he has to save any humans living in Kyoto. He only accepted after RyuZU told him that her younger sister could be found beneath the Tower. This extends to his own life, with him choosing often to protect RyuZU even at personal cost. This is best shown when he unhesitatingly told RyuZU to abandon him and flee during the Kyoto purge and later choosing to drag her scalding body out of light so she could cool down quicker despite it badly burning his hands.
Naoto possesses a calm disposition, being slow to anger. Despite being bullied by his classmates (and at times being scorned, or humiliated), he doesn't seem to mind. Contrary to this, Naoto also possesses a twisted darkness. It reveals itself whenever machines & automata like RyuZU and AnchoR are harmed or mistreated. Although his outward appearance seems calm, inwardly he is going berserk with a startling amount of bloodlust and vengeance flowing through him. This causes his eyes and his smile to become contorted and saying that he is "filled with killing intent" is putting it too lightly. This distorted nature is derived from Naoto's belief on how "people have to pay". He claims that it's not vengeance, but rather that people should face the consequences for what they do. This belief also applies to himself, as he is willing to pay the price himself if he does something wrong. Because of this, Princess Houko states that he could be one's greatest ally but also their greatest enemy. Marie also admitted that, should she have to fight him, she couldn't envision any possibility of winning. Conversely, he would only take certain risks in return for a "reward" proportional to the risk he is taking, although the reward itself is quite subjective to Naoto's own preferences.
The greatest thing about Naoto's personality is his determination to never give up. No matter how bleak the situation is, he refuses to bow before it. His instinct for clockwork is formidable and coupled with this determination he is able to abandon rational thought and come up with irrational and crazy ideas that would not occur to anyone else. During the Kyoto purge after resolving himself to meet AnchoR , he simply decided to march directly into the Core Tower without worrying about any of the behind-the-scenes politics, something Marie believed to be crazy. This side of him is also responsible for enabling him to understand what most people cannot grasp. This is evident in many situations: his solution to fixing RyuZU; his answer to Gennai's question about humanity; his ability to figure out the plans Vermouth discovered on the terrorists; and much more.
Naoto is also revealed through his thoughts and actions to be an enormous pervert, being masochistic when abused by RyuZU and being dominating when it came to TemP . However, he is also chivalrous in this nature, and refused to lay hands on RyuZU despite the lack of such being provoking to her. His explanation was that he treasures his automata to the point where he would feel like he would be sullying them if he did act upon his desires, though this did not impress her.


Clockwork Planet

The automaton is Japanese styled, with the physique of a young girl approximately 14 years old. Her eyes are dark and made of glass beads. As she is incomplete, wires and strings dangle out from hatches in her body. She has dark brown hair and has a calm, peaceful expression on her face. She bears a passing resemblance to Princess Hoshi. She has a thin appearance with decently sized breasts, bigger than AnchoR 's but smaller than RyuZU 's.


Clockwork Planet

Ryouji is a young man wearing an Army security uniform. He is not mechanized in any way.

Ryouji is a very mundane person. Not much is known about him other than that he loved his family very much, acquiescing even to the deaths of millions just so they can be spared. He is also fairly brave, choosing not to divulge vital information even after being threatened with death and only relenting after his family was targeted.
He is a quiet man and initially chose not to engage in conversation with Marie Bell Breguet .
Due to the Army's dark nature, he has grown cynical and views all those in high positions as elitists who don't know any better. During his meeting with Marie, he disparaged the education the heir to the Breguet group needed to go through as unnecessary.


Clockwork Planet

RyuZU looks to be in her mid-teens, with flowing silver hair and a cherubic face. Her skin is coquettishly pale with lips that were red and moist. As described by Naoto, RyuZU has soft and smooth silver hair, snow white skin, golden eyes, crimson lips, and lithe arms and legs. When viewed, she inspires a feeling that the viewer is beholding something "ultimate", with a simple otherworldly beauty. A seal is engraved upon the nape of her neck, bearing the letters " Y . [R y u Z U]". Contrary to her appearance, her body is quite light for a full sized automaton. RyuZU's voice is described as that of a music box's metal comb.
She wears a simple, old-fashioned, and elegant black and purple dress, with a hair ornament made from white gears and a cloth with red, green and black color. Despite being described as being "so black it seemed like it had been tailored from the darkness of the night", her dress appears to be mostly purple and lavender hues. She also has two black scythes made from gears hidden in her back which can be deployed for combat and collection purposes.
When she is using her inherent ability, her clothes turns into a tight-fitting crystal-colored wedding veil and her golden eyes change into a blazing ruby.
During the trip to the clothing store she was dressed in a velvety, lustrous white camisole, a pink skirt made of layered cloth, and a shawl of the same color. It evoked a sense that she was a carefully wrapped confectionary.

Like her code name implies, she is an automata made to serve her master - in this case, Naoto. She is fiercely loyal to him, and should anything threaten him, she will retaliate with actions up to using lethal force. However, she will most often only use her abilities as a threat to deter any harm rather than escalate the conflict against humans. The same cannot be said for any automata or any humans who seek to destroy or kill Naoto or her sisters, as she demonstrates against Gennai .
She has a jealous side, and will punish or threaten to punish him if he falls for another automaton or other forms of clockwork. RyuZU has also used violence against Naoto on one occasion during the destruction of Tokyo Tower when he acted perverted towards her, as well as choosing not to stop Marie from stomping on his head when he acted perverted towards the latter. Due to her loyalty, she also will take actions to ensure his physical and social well-being, remarking that his status reflected on her as his servant.
Since she does not have an offensive language filter installed within her, she tends to be very rude to others, although she herself is oblivious to this. This often leads to her using extremely harsh language to disparage those around her while simultaneously elevating and praising herself.
Unlike most automata, she possesses her own free will, and genuinely wants to stay by her master's side. She enjoys being praised, and requested it on occasion.


Clockwork Planet

She has a silver short hair and wears a tight-fitting black rubber suit while in Mie. During her final mission with Vermouth and Amaretto , she wore a dark black rubber suit to blend in with the darkness, relying on with short-distance resonance gears to handle communication.

Strega resembles a classical tomboy, with her style of speech stylized like that of a delinquent. She does not take kind to Amaretto's sexual remarks, and turns cold towards him when he employs them in his speech.
Strega is also not as knowledgeable about the politics behind the 5 Great Families, needing Vermouth to walk her through the idea that the Second Epsilon had only given the public "open secrets" that were unable to directly take any of them down.


Clockwork Planet

TemP has orange-reddish hair with green eyes and is shorter than RyuZU. She wears an old-fashioned styled dress with a green headband that looks like leaves, and white stripped blue leggings with green on them. Her clothes have a natural feel to them. Her dress shows ample cleavage and her chest is more visible than that of her sisters.
TemP also wears a gear shaped shackle around her neck. This was placed on her by Ω and is a sign of him being her master. Should he relinquish his ownership over her the shackle will self-destruct, freeing her.
Upon activation of Moon Phase, TemP is able to turn invisible at will. However, this has no bearing on her appearance, other than making her look slightly brighter when she is not invisible.

TemP has a proud and over the top, leaning towards dramatic personality, as shown when she was en route to Thailand to confront RyuZU she spent the entire time thinking of how to best make her entrance. Part of this stems from reading manga, and having learned certain tropes from manga, misidentifies Vermouth as a cross-dressing pervert.
Her personality is shy and clumsy, which she recognizes when referring to herself.
TemP also has a distinctly perverted side of her, as shown when she fantasizes about grinding her boot into RyuZU's head and stealing her boyfriend Naoto from her only so she can toss him aside when she is finished with him. TemP recognizes this to some degree and is able to push her thoughts aside while on a mission.


Clockwork Planet

Vainney is a hulking man described as a burly stalwart who is over two metres tall. He has brown eyes and buzz-cut grey hair. Two shaved lines run down the left side of his head. Naoto describes his walking as reminiscent of that of a carnivorous wildcat.
He wears a red collar shirt underneath a business suit, normally having both sleeves rolled up. He also wears a pair of black gloves and sunglasses.

Halter is a generally friendly person who is seldom angered. He is very loyal to Marie. Despite his fearsome appearance, it is revealed early on that Halter is a bit of a worrywart who cares about the people around him. As Marie's bodyguard, he dutifully carries out the task of protecting her, as well as completes duties as secretary to the young Meister .
As the main adult influence for the members of Second Upsilon , he is often the voice of reason, serving not only as a guide to the children but also providing them with a grown-up perspective of their situations. This places him into a role of mediator for when the talents of his charges become too much for themselves to handle.
Halter is a very moral man, and upon learning the Army intended to kill Kyoto's population of 20,000,000 he became furious.
During the Shangri-La Arc he revealed a different side to him, one that is quite deceptive and difficult to understand. It is revealed that Halter's reputation was a result of his ability to achieve the goals of his employer, even if the goals were unknown to them at the time. This is best exemplified when he speaks to Vermouth about the difference between their levels of operation - while Vermouth held no loyalty to his employer and only did as they asked, Halter shows a certain degree of autonomy and would assassinate targets who wanted to put out future contracts on his employer. It is this loyalty and foresight that the Breguet Family employs him for, and which Halter considers to be the defining factor setting him apart from lower ranked mercenaries.


Clockwork Planet

Vermouth is a serious looking man with a gear shaped lens covering his right eye. Two metal plates run down the left side of his face, extending down below his shirt. During his mission with Amaretto and Strega , he wore a dark black rubber suit to blend in with the darkness, relying on with short-distance resonance gears to handle communication.
Following his destruction his mind was placed into that of a pleasure automaton. In this form, he gained blue eyes and sported long blond hair reaching down to his hips. He wore a black body suit that revealed cleavage with a ribbon over his chest.

Similar to his kouhai Amaretto , Vermouth is shown to be a dirty mouthed and sarcastic man who likes to purposely get on people's nerves. He often employs crass and vulgar language in order to annoy or irritate those around him, riling up both friend and foe.
However, he is shown to be serious when needed. Beneath his wisecracking exterior he is very smart and extremely perceptive, deducing that Vainney Halter had his own plans and reassuring Marie of her bodyguard's loyalty.
His approach towards mercenary work is one of cold-equations. He will do what the employer requests and no further. He holds no loyalty towards any of his clients, claiming that in the line of work a mercenary may kill an employer they risked their lives for the previous day. Upon hearing Halter's reasoning, he begins to change, understanding that a skilled mercenary would never allow themselves to be placed into that situation. Vermouth takes the words of the more experienced man to heart, returning to the side of Second Upsilon before the closure of the Shangri-La Arc with a new outlook on how to perform his job.


Clockwork Planet

His full appearance hasn't been shown so far. In the manga, Y's hand and arm is shown with him wearing white gloves and a white coat.

Little is known about his personality apart from his unwavering belief in his work, best illustrated when he presented the world with an alternative to certain doom.
It is theorized by Giovanni Artigiano that Y was someone who did as he liked, having created the Clockwork Planet and the Initial-Y Series without leaving so much as a blueprint behind for the people to understand.
It is also possible that Y cared about humanity, given he stepped forward to produce the Clockwork Planet for the people as a method of survival after all other possibilities had been exhausted.


Code Geass

Akito is a young man with blue eyes and long blue hair tied in a single braid, and is shown in promotional art wielding a kodachi with a white hilt and square guard. In the fifth episode he cuts off his braid, but later begins growing it out again.

Akito is shown as a very introverted person, a loner, and very much isolated within his squad. He is also shown to have a very twisted personality, due to his traumatizing childhood, the geass command his brother gave him, and his hatred for his brother.
Akito is quite intelligent, as he assists Leila in battle planning, and uses the geass command, given to him by his brother, to aid him in combat. His tactical knowledge combined with his fighting skills is one of the reasons he has survived all of his suicide missions. He can also be very clever in terms of resolving a conflict without violence (shown when he subdued Leila Malcal 's step-brother and fiance Ioan Malcal ). He is very mature for someone his age (when comparing his personality with Yukiya Naruse and Ryo Sayama who are the same age as he is).
But after staying with the elderly women in Warsaw, he is shown to have a softer persona and care for his comrades. He shown to dislike eating fish.


Code Geass

Akito is a young man with blue eyes and long blue hair tied in a single braid. He is usually seen wearing his wZERO uniform.


Code Geass

Alan has grey eyes and teal hair cut into a bowl covering his left eye. He has a dark brown shirt with the Britannian Military insignia on it as well as red shoulder pads and robes as well which is traditional among members of the Knights of St. Michael.


Code Geass

Alice is a young girl with red eyes and blonde hair which she keeps tied up in twintails. At the end of the story, she cuts her hair short.
Her three measurements are as follow:

Breast: 78 Waist: 61 Hips: 76 [1]

Alice is a strong-willed and tough girl who always has herself together. Despite her tomboyish personality, she is an extremely caring and sweet girl who gets along well with both her classmates and her Irregular "sisters". Alice has zero tolerance for bullying and will humiliate or even beat up anyone who bullies or harasses others as Ekaterina Sforza and her two friends learned the hard way.
Despite appearing seemly normal, Alice is deeply troubled because of the tragedies of her past, namely losing her paraplegic little sister who died in a fire. Alice has always felt guilt of being powerless to protect the one she cared about. Similar to Suzaku Kururugi , Alice became a Britannian soldier and obtained her Geass in hopes of preventing the same kind of tragedy from repeating. She also feels guilty about hiding her true identity as a Irregular special agent from Nunnally who considers Alice her best friend.
Even though Alice is a good person at heart, she can be quite ruthless when she needs to be and has no qualms about killing either in self-defense or to protect others. This was shown during the battle at Lake Kawaguchi and when she killed Mao, and later Rolo vi Britannia , for kidnapping and trying to murder Nunnally.


Code Geass

Anna is an extremely beautiful young woman, possessing a light yet somewhat pale skin tone, sparkling green eyes, and extremely thick bright purple hair that reaches down to below her waistline, with one long strand falling down her front. She is slightly taller than Leila. She wears a long dress-like version of the standard E.U. uniform, with her skirt reaching down to just above her knees, while also wearing boots that reach just below them. She also often wears a set of red reading glasses.

Anna is a girl who is exceptionally kind, compassionate, and selfless. She cares deeply for those around her and is always their needs before her own. Despite being a soldier for the E.U., Anna has been shown to be a gentle girl who detests the violence of the war with Euro Britannia , and shares Leila’s discomfort about how Japanese soldiers are used as cannon fodder by the European government.
Anna is also a very gifted scientist and engineer, with her being regarded as a scientific genius, having done feats such as having disassembled and analyzed a Britannian Glasgow on her own at the age of 12. Her talents were such that even at a young age, she had helped speed up the development of Europia's Panzer Hummel and was able to allow it to be fielded sooner. She has such an interest in her work that she tends to get too excited and explain things that normal people are unable to follow along with, and apologizes for being inconsiderate. However, she also becomes overjoyed when someone like Yukiya is able to follow it. Despite this, Anna secretly dislikes having to build weapons, instead wishing to have her creations help others instead of hurting them. Outside of machines, she also loves insects and is an entomologist.
Anna is also shown to be a sort of worrywart regarding the safety of her friends, especially her best friend Leila whom she shares a close sisterly bond with. Whenever Leila is placed into a difficult situation, even when her life isn’t at risk, Anna will usually cry out of fear for her friend and will shed tears of relief whenever she finds that she is alright. Deep at heart, Anna, in truth, possesses a low opinion of herself compared to Leila, believing herself to be a weak and an incompetent person on her own. This causes her to often rely on Leila for emotional support and will become depressed whenever her friend is gone for long periods of time. Despite this, Anna is not as weak as she credits herself, and has shown bravery and strength of character during desperate times.
According to Leila, Anna has a habit of gossiping, such as when she told Akito that Leila has a rank in Akido. Despite her worrying tendencies, she is shown to be much less laid back then Leila whom she considers to be a “workaholic”, and often encourages Leila to enjoy herself a bit more.
Much like Leila, Anna, in contrast to most Europeans, harbors no prejudice towards the Japanese people, who are constantly discriminated against by the E.U. populace. Instead, she is shown to be abhorred by her country’s racism, and wishes to help the Japanese who are sent to fight in the wZERO unit survive their missions. As time passes, she even comes to fall in love with the Japanese soldier Yukiya Naruse , due to their respective interests in technology.


Code Geass

Anya is subtly noted as being a beautiful young girl, with a petite build, pale complexion, light pink hair tied up in a ponytail that always has thick strands of hair that falls next to her face and that also creates bangs on her forehead, and a rouge-red eyes.
She is most often seen wearing a semi-revealing outfit, which consists of a black crop-top with a golden crest of the Britannian Military placed in the center of it. On top of that, she wears a white vest-like garment that has a stiff collar pointing outwards, the back of her cloak is cut out to reveal her lower back, before joining back together above her hips, and splitting into two different leaf-like shapes and ending just below her knees. Anya also wears white shorts held up by a brown belt, black boots that cut below her knee cap, with pink socks that reach her bottom thigh, notable bands of leather that encircle her leg above her socks, black gloves that are cut off at her elbows, and - probably one of her most prominent and well-known facts of her appearance - a red tattoo on her upper-left arm, bearing a likeness to the one on her top.
When piloting her Knightmare Frame, Mordred , Anya wears a revealing bodysuit-type leotard that leaves much of her stomach and torso bare and flares out at the bottom in gold-tipped black fringes; it also retains the same golden insignia on her crop-top. It had long sleeves in which there there magenta-colored covers along her forearm. With that, she wears mid-thigh high magenta colored boots.

Anya comes off as rather stoic, deadpan and uninterested, similar to a person who suffers from depression. Anya maintains a detached attitude in most situations, usually declaring most things to be boring or dull. However, this detached attitude also gives her a lack of "common sense"; she had piloted her personal Knightmare Frame for the sake of capturing Lelouch ’s hat, disregarding the fact that she was piloting her Mordred in a non-combat area and had aroused the suspicion of the military and the Knight Police, sending the Tokyo Concession into Defcon 2.
Anya is loyal to Britannia and her Emperor, never questioning or disobeying orders given to her. This loyalty is further shown when Lelouch takes control of the empire after "killing" Charles zi Britannia , Anya sided with Schneizel and his faction, seeing him as the legitimate of the two.
On the battlefield she's a deadly and fully capable pilot, showing no mercy to her enemies. Her fighting style reflects her heavily-armored Knightmare; she annihilates her enemies with overwhelming force and doesn't hesitate to kill disabled foes.
Despite her stoic personality and ruthlessness in battle, Anya does have a softer side as she has been shown to be warm and caring towards her friends. She treats Suzaku as an equal despite him being an Eleven, she showed deep sadness along with the others after Shirley 's death, and she appears to like cats. Anya is also rather protective of Nunnally , having served as her personal knight before Suzaku, and was shown guarding her and escorting her away from the stage during the schedule exile of zero, fearing for her safety.
Although Anya seemingly lacks emotions this is not the case, demonstrated during her final battle with Jeremiah Gottwald in which she admits that she "has no memory" with tears in her eyes. She also cried at one point during her time as Nunnally's knight. It would seem that her lack of memories due to Marianne 's presence bothers her immensely and her outward personality masks how truly sad she is inside.
At the end of the series and in Turn 25.01 , Anya seems much happier and more open due to her memories having been restored by Jeremiah and now having a more normal and peaceful life.


Code Geass

Ash is a young man with a lean build, with somewhat long light brown hair and blue eyes. Part of the right side of his hair is slicked back and dyed blue, complementing Roze 's red bang. The blue part of his hair originally matched the rest, but turned white from the trauma of his brother's death and was later dyed blue.
He has two scars running along his chest down to his abdomen, and a tattoo of the roman numeral 13.

Ash presents himself as a cold and professional young man, usually focused on the mission and showing little emotion towards much else. This is especially reflected in his fighting style, often dispatching enemies with efficiency and not speaking unless necessary.
Despite that, he does possess a more compassionate side, often taking in stray animals and having either sent to shelters or caring for them alongside Rozé. He can also be somewhat shy, nervously hiding behind Tomo-omi Oda when Yoko Araki saw him in his underwear.
He views Roze as his most important person, though that is because Sakuya geassed him to do so. He was immediately taken with Sakuya when he met her as Rasberry, being much more cheerful and talkative with her then he normally is.

Bitool is an incredibly tall man with a hunch. He has magenta hair, black eyes, and a series of red designs on both of his cheeks. This appearance is supposed to invoke that of a cat.

Bitool is a ruthless and sadistic man who enjoys regularly torturing his prisoners, he constantly speaks about what he is "going to do" to Kallen and the acts he has committed on women he has captured previously. He is also incredibly corrupt and greedy and seems to only focus on getting as much money as possible. Despite this, Bitool is shown to be loyal and obedient to his masters, namely Princess Shamna . Bitool also showed a moment of grief during the final battle when Kallen killed all of his subordinates though he quickly brushed off the loss of his comrades knowing it meant a larger payoff for himself


Code Geass

Bolvona's appearance is that of a middle aged man with a graying hair. He is also wearing what seems to be a grey traditional Zilkhstani dress uniform and a golden headband.

Belonging to one of the Zilkhstani noble houses. Bolvona is tasked with the defense of the capital and hunting down Lelouch after the murder of his son. Unlike his son, Bolvona does not let being born as a noble hamper his judgement. Even after the death of his son Shesthaal, he is shown to act calmly and rationally and not let his emotions take over his thoughts. Instead focusing on bringing justice to his son's killer. During his fight with Cornelia , he is shown to be willing to sacrifice himself to take down the enemy commander without hesitation in order to display his determination. But when he gave the order to fire at him and Cornelia his own soldiers refused the order and Cornelia noted the reason why is that if the "Brown Bulkwark" dies the Kingdom of Zilkhstani will cease to exist. This shows the level of respect that the soldiers and his enemies have for Bolvona.
