Ascendance of a Bookworm

Wilma has brown eyes and light auburn hair, which she wears braided and pinned up in a low bun. Like all gray priestesses, she wears plain gray robes tied at the waist with a red sash and belt.

Personality

A kind, soft-spoken, and hard-working young woman, Wilma is a loving caretaker for the children of the orphanage. She loves to make art and enjoys challenging herself to draw new styles and subjects, often getting absorbed in her work.
Due to her past experiences, Wilma is nervous when outside the orphanage, especially around adult men. However, her passion for her work and her determination to overcome her fears are helping her become braver day by day.

History

Wilma was raised in the Ehrenfest cathedral orphanage and became a gray priestess. She previously served alongside Rosina as a retainer of Christine , an apprentice blue priestess. Because of her talent for art, Christine prized Wilma's services highly and gave her preferential treatment compared to the other retainers. Unlike Rosina, however, Wilma understood that their treatment was not "normal" by cathedral standards.
At some point before coming of age, Wilma was tricked by a blue priest who attemped to sexually assault her. The experience left her with lasting trauma and a fear of being around men.
After Christine left the church, her retainers were returned to the orphanage. Because there were so few gray priestesses, Wilma took responsibility for the young children in the orphanage as an unofficial caregiver.

Story

Myne first meets Wilma right after becoming the orphanage director. Wilma is among those that get an extra reward for doing particularly good work in the cleaning of the orphanage. In Wilmas case the act that earned her the extra food was her being the first to rush to help and clean the unbaptised children. [1]
Myne offers Wilma to become her attendant, which she initially refused, due to her androphobia and her responsibility for the unbaptized orphans. Myne gained insight into Wilma's past and the reason why she is hesitant. As Myne still wishes for Wilma to become her attendant, she proposed favorable terms, allowing her to stay in the orphanage. Wilma gladly accepts Myne's offer and becomes her attendant.
Myne respects Wilma's decisions and minds Wilma's situation which is shown by her act of taking Rosina to the orphanage for visits instead of Fran and Myne's effort to think of a solution to Wilma's problem.
Wilma's artistic talent lies in drawing and painting, which Myne then puts to use in the crafts she is making.

Adaption Differences

Anime : Rosina told Myne about Wilma ; Light Novel : Wilma told Myne herself

Trivia

Wilma can only draw things she can picture in her head. As she grew up in the cathedral's orphanage, she only knows about the gods. She wants to give the same love she received herself when she grew up in the orphanage to the other orphans. She perceives herself as plain-looking.

Zasha is a boy with violet hair and brown eyes. He has a strong body due to his work in a carpentry.

Personality

History

Story

Along with his other brothers, Zasha occasionally does little tasks for Myne and Lutz for some extra pocket money, like carving the wooden parts for hairpins or engraving illustrations that Wilma drew on wood. Though the latter does not work very well due to them not having the proper tools and their regular knives not allowing them to be precise enough.


Ashita no Joe

Harimau has a brutish, animalistic appearance and stands at 163 centimeters. He has dark brown skin, mid-length black hair that reaches his shoulders, and has disproportately long arms in comparison to his legs.
In his introduction at the airport, he wears a green plaid suit, a purple and white ties, and black dress shoes. When Harimau is with his tribe, he only wears a loincloth. When he is in the weigh-in room for his match with Yabuki Joe , he is wearing a leopard-printed robe.

Harimau has a wild personality. He is unable to communicate with anyone is Japan and speaks in unintelligible grunts, which contributes to his inhumane attitude. The only thing to make Harimau act more normal is to feed him chocolate bars. Harimau seems to have some pride in his abilities, as he smirks and chuckles before giving his secret attacks. He is very unfamiliar with modern commodities, as he is even disrupted and becomes aggressive by bright camera flashes.
Harimau may have a more placated personality when he is with his tribe because one of Yoko's recruiters states that Harimau was only aggressive after the plane to Japan landed. However, opposed to this, Harimau punched his manager and hospitalized him before he returned to Japan because he didn't like how controlling his manager was. This implies he may not be as placated as Yoko's recruiters implied before the plane fight.


Ashita no Joe

Yōko has fair skin and a slim build. She has long black straight hair with a widow's peak and brown coloured eyes.


Asobi Asobase

Chisato is a woman of Japanese decent noting herself to be older than her mother when Chisato was born. She is a brunette with short hair and signature bangs, her eccentric hair does not stop at that with her eyebrows and eyelashes drawn in a distinctly bushy manner. She is also commonly drawn with a cat-like mouth and simplistic oval eyes, (not unlike the simplistic circular way in which Sainan ).

Chisato is an androphobe which has caused her to only attend all-girls schools stating she believes that females are "more fun to be around". Her androphobia has resulted in her avoiding men and having very little experience in courtship or even basic knowledge pertaining to sexual intercourse. Now as a young adult, she is reminded of her single status by her friends who are either married or dating and is eager to find a boyfriend despite being clueless about how to do so. She is desperate for help in finding someone that she consulted the members of the Pastimers Club despite them being students. This was what led her to become blackmailed into being a club adviser to the Pastimers Club.
Despite being tricked into her role as an adviser, she takes her role seriously and does the best that she can to be a good adviser to the Pastimers Club. She oversees the Pastimers Club's activities which aren't easy due to the chaotic personalities of its members.
She is actually a fan of Shojou manga which has lead to slightly unrealistic expectations of her potential suitor stating she would like a rich man or an "engineer from outer space that watches the Earth".


Asobi Asobase

Fujiwara outwardly resembles a Classical Japanese Geisha due to her fair skin, small eyes, eyebrows, and hair.

Fujiwara is very brooding concerning her linguistics lamenting that she is unable to speak Japanese and would much rather speak English interjecting English into her speech.


Asobi Asobase

Hanako is a thin and slender pale-skinned 14 year old girl with butt-length black hair that is tied in low twintails with chin-length hair strands hanging on either side while she has long bangs hanging over her forehead and brown eyes.
Throughout the show, she is most often seen wearing her school uniform, though she has been seen wearing other clothes when outside of school. Hanako seems to have her own warped sense of fashion, leading her to have some questionable tastes in clothing.

Hanako is a hyperactive and impulsive girl who often says and does whatever comes to her mind. This often leads her to act without thinking about the consequences of her actions or be led on by someone else's lies, which more often than not causes trouble for her and her friends. She is also very competitive, which often escalates an already troublesome situation to uncontrollable proportions. Hanako's misadventures happen so often that in the Student Council's records, all the disasters that happened involving the Pastimers Club can be traced back to her. Ironically, despite being the most short-sighted of the Past-timers Club and considered dumb by her friends, Hanako is the smartest in terms of academic performance and excels significantly compared to them but her success is throttled due to her erratic behavior.
Hanako cares about her friends and has sometimes shown understanding and care for their feelings, such as when she hides the fact that Olivia 's armpits smell to protect her feelings. However, her chaotic nature means that she also often turns against them for the smallest things, like getting angry at them when playing a game for doing better than she is. She will look for opportunities to mess with them or win against them. She has also shown to disregard her friends' privacy at times like snooping on Kasumi Nomura 's laptop which led to her finding out about her BL (Boys' Love) stories.
Hanako has a very negative opinion of popular girls and deems them to be entitled and lower than she is, but this hatred is actually jealousy on her part since she secretly longs to be popular herself. She wants to do things which she perceives popular girls do, such as hanging out in Shibuya and having a boyfriend. One example of her thirst for popularity was when she joined the Tennis Club to become more popular and immediately left the club despite being actually skilled at tennis when she found out the popular girls were already popular before joining the club.
Her want for a boyfriend is notable developing into a form of spite for any mention of boyfriends but despite this, she has nearly no knowledge on courtship or sexual intercourse - despite stating that she wants to marry a man and have 2 children by age 25 though she is dissuaded from this. Her lack of knowledge on love is noted when Olivia states that she wants to go on a trip with Kasumi to "kill virgins" (a slang term for scouting out potential suitors) but due to Hanako's lack of knowledge she takes the term literally.
Hanako is shown to have a close relationship with her family servant Maeda going back from her childhood where she played a lot with him. Maeda would provide the growing Hanako with answers to her questions, even if it meant lying to her because he didn't want to seem ignorant. This has resulted in Hanako believing those lies to her middle-school days such as believing Shogi was a game where someone shoots lasers from their butt because Maeda told her so. She has also seemed to inherit some eccentricities because of Maeda's upbringing. As a middle-school student, she treats Maeda with less reverie (referring to Maeda as "it" on one occasion) and is more aware of his unusual behavior. However, she still relies on him from time to time and doesn't hesitate to ask Maeda for unusual favors.


Asobi Asobase

Kasumi is a cute and slender pale-skinned girl with chin-length black hair, light brown eyes, she is most often seen wearing glasses that completes her shy bookworm appearance and a large bust that has earned her the jealousy of Hanako Honda .
Outside of school, she wears a white blouse and long skirt under a blue vest.
She is most often seen wearing her school uniform.

Initially, Kasumi was a very anti-social person as she stays away from people in general. As a child, she often lost when playing games with her sister and had to carry out tasks as punishment. This led her to have a very strong aversion to all games. It wasn't until her encounter with Olivia and Hanako Honda that she began to change her outlook on games and people. She initially sought out Hanako and Olivia and created the Pastimers Club to learn English from Olivia, but as time passed she began to appreciate the companionship provided by the two so much that when Olivia revealed the truth that she couldn't speak English, Kasumi forgave her immediately because they were 'already in a club.' She treasures her friendship with Hanako and Olivia dearly, even if it does often lead her to disastrous events.
Kasumi is often seen as a shy and introverted girl. She often speaks in a timid and friendly manner and is often unwilling to impose on her friends. However, her shy demeanor deceptively hides her 'dark side'. When driven to be serious or angered, Kasumi displays another side of her that is cold, sadistic, and sometimes violent. This side of her can intimidate and strike fear into the people around her, even her own friends.
Kasumi is an avid fan of BL (Boys' Love) stories and often writes some herself. She considers this her secret hobby and is embarrassed when people find out, especially her friends. Her attraction to men ends in fictional ones as the sight of a real male is enough to drive her to extreme fear and nausea as seen whenever she is in the proximity of Maeda . Curiously, she does not exhibit this level of hysteria when near her male teacher, indicating that perhaps she at least trust the teachers enough or is at least okay around people she knows well. Kasumi does not see her revulsion to men as a problem though, as when confronted by the possibility of ending up alone in her adulthood like her Club counselor, she confidently declares that she can tolerate living that way. She has very warped views concerning men believing that they shoot lasers out of their nether regions when aroused which when stated was "corrected" by Hanako stating that they actually shoot lasers out their rear end.

Kentarō resembles Hanako Honda quite a bit as they both have black hair and hazelnut eyes: the only difference being height and gender.
He wears a white collared shirt and shorts with black shoes to go with it; school uniform. On top of his head is a sailors hat.

Kentarō is an extremely hard working and diligent student who prefers to read instead of playing games. He is usually by himself because of this, but he does enjoy games with people from time to time.


Asobi Asobase

She is a member of the " Gyaru " subculture and as such possesses a high level of makeup. She is tanned, wearing pink lipstick (though this is possibly her natural lip colour) she has strange white patches on her skin, she wears eyeliner. She has mint eyes which *could be her natural eye colour though they are most likely contacts. Her hair is white from the dye she uses.
She has a butterfly pin in her hair and wears the schools uniform.

She is extremely lecherous stating she has had sexual relations with everyone from an all-boys school close to her and due to her outwardly gaudy nature and the negative connotations surrounding her subculture, she is thought to be of low intelligence partially due to her stating that she doesn't study at home.
Despite the above, she's actually very prodigious being in the Top 100 in the national exams stating that she learned most of it from simply listening to the lessons taught at school and follows the uniform code (except for rules concerning make-up and accessories).
She's actually quite kind lending her makeup cleanser to Hanako.


Asobi Asobase

Maeda appears to be a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties with neatly cut short hair and wears a blue suit and pants with a red tie in most of his appearances.
In his college days, Maeda had long unkempt hair and wore black-tinted glasses, not unlike a homeless person (which he was).

Maeda is very grateful for Honda's grandfather who rescued him and helped him control his power. As a result, he is almost single-minded in his devotion to the Honda family, particularly Hanako Honda . Maeda seemed to share a close bond with Hanako when she grew up, who saw him almost like an idol. Maeda vowed to be a source of knowledge for young Hanako and never appear unknowledgeable to her, even if it meant lying to avoid telling her he didn't know the answer to her question. He would also do anything to please the child, including shooting beams from his butt for her amusement.
In her middle school year, Maeda was no longer idolized by Hanako and instead treated with a bit more disdain. However, they remain close and Maeda would still do anything to assist her, at one point even willing to go to Nichome, a gay district in Tokyo, in order to assist Kasumi Nomura (Hanako's friend) in her story. Maeda's influence on Hanako is also apparent, as she plays pastime games with absurd rules that she got from Maeda and she would sometimes reference him in conversations, indicating some of her eccentricities may have been picked up from him.


Asobi Asobase

Penpen is a third-year girl with greyish-blonde hair. She has a strand of braided hair on her left and wears a pair of thin oval glasses. Her eyes are about the same color as her hair, and she has long eyelashes.
She largely remains expressionless, causing most others to wonder if she really means the things she says. Her manner of speaking is quite straightforward and slow, with little to no filter. Contrastingly, Chanel tries to force uncomfortable expressions out of her when they are together. Chanel says that she can easily read her feelings because they've been friends for so long, but this reasoning is up to debate, as another long-time friend of their group Tsutsuji cannot.

Penpen is quick to pick up on things and jump to conclusions, although they may not be very accurate. Her plans can also be either very intricate, or more commonly, completely off the mark. Note that there might be a hint of reason to believe that she purposefully chooses the most interesting option instead of the most logical. One of these incidents causes Hanako to nickname her as " obaka-chan ," or "dummy" behind her back, a nickname she almost slips out in front of her.
On the inside, she cares for those around her and is worried about her attitude towards others, something she refers to as her "dignity as a person." She helps Olivia with slowly revealing to the school that she in fact cannot speak fluent English and even offers help with the language from time to time.
In front of Chanel, she allows herself to let go of her "dignity as a person," although she is hesitant about it. This is because they have been with each other during their toughest times, and she doesn't want other people she classifies as "normal" to see her in a bad way. In the past, when their friendship was slowly dwindling, she felt saddened and felt worried for her.


Asobi Asobase

Olivia is a pale-skinned girl with waist-length wavy light blonde hair and light blue eyes. She is mostly seen wearing her school uniform but mostly wears a shirt and shorts outside of school.
Olivia has the most distinctive appearance among her friends due to her foreign heritage.

Olivia is shown to be quite mischievous. In her first encounter with Hanako Honda , Olivia tricks the latter into believing she was a transfer student from America by speaking in broken Japanese to feign ignorance to Japanese culture when confronted and due to her getting nervous in her own introduction and talking in broken Japanese accidentally. This ended up backfiring on her when Kasumi Nomura asked to be taught in English by her, despite her not knowing any English, at which point Olivia was too afraid of Kasumi to reveal the truth and instead began to create more excuses for not teaching her English. Her lie eventually led to the formation of the Pastimers Club, but it wasn't until sometime after that her lie was finally revealed. Afterwards, she speaks in normal Japanese amongst her friends, while feigning to become better in Japanese in front of other people often ending her sentences in "desu" not unlike an amateur Japanese speaker but will falter when faced with a stressful situation speaking normally.
Olivia has an easy-going personality. As such, she usually goes along willingly with Hanako's games and escalates them, even though they sometimes have an unusual twist compared to the original version. This twisting is also reflected in her approach to studying, which is cramming the night before an exam, though this was shown to be ineffective.
She is considered the least studious and dumbest of the main trio as shown above in relation to her study habits but also making a childish tantrum upon being pressed to study English for a speech (though she was noted to have achieved 90 in her Japanese Grammar entrance exam test).
She is an avid fan of sumo wrestling being bribed by Tsugumi Aozora with a statue of a sumo wrestler and actually wanted to become a sumo wrestler as a profession but was distraught when she learned that female sumo wrestling does not exist believing that the non-existent female circuit was never aired due to the women being naked from the upper body.


Asobi Asobase

She wears the standard school uniform but with a large comical witches hat which seems to be standard with all members of the occult club. She often appears scary to her peers accidentally though this is due to a lack of social acumen and fear alongside a strange stilted and deliberate manner of speaking often with no readable emotion in her voice.
She has cartoony circular eyes with black pupils and wears odd eye make-up. She has curly unkempt hair, not unlike many female Japanese depictions of ghosts such as Kayako Saeki from the Grudge/Ju-On franchise or Sadako Yamamura from the Ring multi-media franchise

Oka is a genuinely nice person but possesses an unnerving aura surrounding her unintentionally intimidating the Student Council President and many of her acquaintances in the Pastimers Club.
She seems to genuinely believe in the occult believing her friend Aguri "Agrippa" Mato teleported away but was, in reality, suffering from hemorrhoids which caused her to be hospitalized for some time. Upon learning this, she became remorseful in having failed to notice her friend's ailing condition.


Asobi Asobase

He is a middle-aged Japanese man with beady circular eyes, tiny eyebrows, and black neatly combed hair. He wears a 3 piece suit with a green tie, grey waistcoat, and pants along with a white undershirt. He requires glasses with his pair having circular lenses and a wireframe.

He is often considered kind by the trio playing along with their mischief which often holds disastrous effects such as possibly breaking his back when he pretended to get hit by Kasumi's non-existent Kamehameha.
He has some form of detective complex after an encounter with the trio where they lied that Olivia accidentally urinated on the floor leaking out into the hallway when they had actually brought an inflatable pool and water into the school and did not want to be seen in swimsuits. He noticed that the water (which was thought to be urine) was clear and was conflicted as to the nature of this causing him to "seek the truth" with the silhouette of a mysterious boy appearing beside him which inspired him to lick the liquid off the floor which revealed to him that it was water after this encounter he stated his disappointment from them lying to him but was glad they revealed the truth after being pressed. After this encounter, he felt the urge to lick the liquids found on the floor around the floor accidentally poisoning himself with cyanide.

Tsugumi has long Marian blue hair with hazel eyes. They are often seen wearing a uniform.

Tsugumi is very ambitious, employing complex tactics to acquire a database of blackmail from the Student Council President.
Tsugumi kissed Kasumi because they found her interesting.

Assassin's Pride

Elise is a petite young girl with short, chin length light blue hair with buns on the side of her head. She has bright blue eyes and often showcases an expressionless face.

Elise is a shy individual, and this becomes more prominent when Melida Angel is present. This is mainly due to the embarrassment Melida regularly receives when around Elise, as Melida cannot wield mana, and should be the more powerful of the pair (as she is from the main family) and Elise is from the branch family.
When fighting against others, as seen in the first intra-school tournament in the anime series, Elise appears to be dauntless and shows confidence whilst manipulating mana but in reality, she gets scared easily particularly against Lancanthrope .
She openly states that she prefers to be second-best and would rather not be in the spotlight for her strength, however she admits that she will not hesitate to rise to the occasion when it means showcasing her power against others.

She has the tendency to focus in a single goal ignoring the rest, as see in the first two trials of the Luna Lumiere: she refused to help in Melida plan to stop the Siren and don't had problems in cheating in the second trial, the "String Puppet Dance", having received Melida strategy beforehand from Shenfa.


Assassin's Pride

Kufa is a very tall man with dark purple hair and has Martinique and East Side colored eyes. He wears a military uniform, as stated by a pedestrian in the episode The Last Testament of a Certain Skeleton .
His hair becomes long and white in Vampire form, his eyes glow a brighter blue, and he also grows fangs.
In his "awakening" form, his eyes becomes pitch black while his pupils is brighter.  His white hair grows longer and his nails becomes sharper. [1]

As an assassin, Kufa is calm and collected whenever he carries out his duties. Since he became supportive of Melida as her tutor, Kufa shows irrational and emotional tendencies. A good example is when he rejected Rosetti 's act of goodwill when she reached out her hand in hopes to get along with each other as fellow tutors of the Angel Family. As seen from his confrontation with Williams Gin and Black Madia , he also becomes more likely to take risks.
As Melida's tutor and attendant, Kufa went to great lengths to help her grow stronger, starting by betraying his guild and his duties. He always thinks about the dangers ahead while thinking of nurturing and protecting Melida, despite being her enemy as a Vampire.
In both the light novel and manga version, many called out Kufa as a sadistic or demonic teacher, though he denies this. He later became renowned in the Angel household as the brutal teacher as he shows his devilish side when he trains someone, particularly Melida. As the only male allowed in the St. Friedeswiedes Academy for Girls , he unintentionally gained popularity with the girls there due to his devotion towards Melida.
Kufa occasionally talked about his fond memories of his mother to Melida. He reminiscences the struggle they went through due to their origin as Night citizens and his admiration of her strength she did for them before she passed on.

Formerly she wore a black robe with gray patterns on it and underneath it she wore more casual clothing similar to Rosetti Pricket 's outfit.

When she first appears, she would talk through her fire paper for unknown reasons. Though this implied a timid nature, she is shown to be a person confident of her skills, willingly going to gather information on Kufa ’s mission despite knowing his powers as a half-vampire. It’s also seen later that she, in fact, can talk without the aid of her fire paper and was possibly used before to get on Kufa’s nerve. She adores ' Father ' calling him 'Papa'.
After being ordered to be Instructor Laqua as punishment, she no longer talks through her fire paper and instead would talk normally. She is not used to large crowds. Laqua is also stubborn as she doesn't give up easily and even said "If he thinks he can get rid of me with something like that, he's got another thing coming!" implying that she wants to get revenge on Kufa.
Her introduction as the instructor is different in the novel. During her rescued effort in protecting the students and defeating the artificial lancanthrope invading the labyrinth examination, she disobeyed the guild's orders and reveal her face in public. After that, she unintentionally gained popularity in the academy when she was introduced to the students.

Aguri is known for her unusual fashion sense as it was noted by the original Reaper and many other people, including her students from Class 3-E .

Aguri is shown to be a very kind, considerate, polite, cheerful, gentlehearted and clear-minded woman who is truly passionate when it comes to teaching. As a teacher of Class 3-E , she is quite intelligent, being able to teach any subject in spite of chemistry being her first preference. She is also hard-working, having been essentially forced to work as a lab assistant to her abusive fiancé Shiro during night hours.
Aguri is also very emphatic and perceptive, as when the original Reaper wondered why his apprentice betrayed him, she replied that his apprentice might have wanted his master to "see him", a perception later proved to be tragically prophetic. Her kind behavior was also evident when she went to visit Karma Akabane at his house during his suspension.
Comically, Aguri is known for her odd sense of fashion which often leaves others dumbfounded. Despite that, she is remembered very highly by those who knew her and continues to make an impact in their lives.


Assassination Classroom

Takaoka is a rather large and stocky man with black hair that is slicked back, black eyes, a big nose, he is very muscular from years of intense training and he was first seen with a very friendly look on his face, but this drastically changed when he showed his true colors as a brutal drill sergeant.

Takaoka's face scars

In his second appearance, he has now shown to have clawed at his face to the point of leaving scars (reflecting on the psychological scars inflicted from his defeat by Nagisa Shiota and getting fired by Gakuho Asano ), he has lost his large waistline and he has either uses hair gel or his hair is just messy.

Takaoka initially appears to be a very kind, hardy and helpful man with a good sense of humor and someone whom young people respond well to.

Takaoka showing his sadistic side

However, he turns out to be a sadistic drill instructor who abuses his strength and power through brute force and violence. He believes that the best way to train soldiers is to earn their loyalty through two elements, affection and fear; the ideal ratio being 10% affection, 90% fear: soldiers who've been continuously subjected to brutality will weep with joy over a tiny sliver of affection.
He does not hesitate in beating up anyone, even the students (such as kneeing Hiroto Maehara and slapping Yukiko Kanzaki when they object to his training), just to show how powerful he is.
The truth is that he does not care about the students' welfare at all - he only cares about gaining fame from them killing Korosensei due to his teaching as well as forcing Tadaomi Karasuma to acknowledge his methods and being able to boss him around. It did not matter to him if half the students dropped, so long as the other half become successful assassins.
He hates losing to anyone, becoming deranged after losing to Nagisa Shiota .
After getting fired following his loss to Nagisa, Takaoka's insanity is amplified as he devised a plan to poison most of the students in Okinawa for his revenge. He began scratching his face due to being mocked by his colleague after he lost to Nagisa. After confronting the students again, he threatened everyone by telling them that he’ll blow up the antidote if Nagisa doesn't beg for forgiveness (but he broke his promise by blowing up the antidote just to see Nagisa's despair once again). Once he lost to Nagisa for the second time, he was reduced to a vegetative state after seeing Nagisa’s smile.
He has an obsession of watching the suffering of his opponents and will sadistically beat/kill someone just to assert his control of others, furthering his dominance by forcing them to recognize him as their father figure. He also has a habit of raising his tongue whenever he has the upper hand.


Assassination Classroom

Azusa is an attractive middle-aged woman with light-colored hair that is tied into a ponytail with bangs hanging on either side, eyes that remain closed as a result of her blindness and a mole under her left eye.
She wears a long-sleeved shirt along with a light-colored skirt. As a waitress, she dons a black apron over her current attire. Once her tumor was removed, her eyes were shown to have a dark color much like her daughter's.
When thinking about killing somebody, her eyes possess a noticeable bloodlust. Korosensei associated this trait with Nagisa Shiota .

Azusa is a friendly and modest individual, but ever since getting her tumor, Azusa secretly harbors a strong desire to help Hotaru survive as well as help her make a living. As a result, Azusa had devised an intensely calculated plan to take her own life along with Korosensei's so that Hotaru would earn the money from the bounty. Once Korosensei saved her from her own assassination attempt as well as her tumor, she promised to live life to the fullest along with Hotaru.

Assassination Classroom

Hojo is a tall middle-aged man with a slim build. He has black hair that is slicked back and light eyes that are covered with frameless glasses. He has a scar on his left eye and typically wears a cold, hard expression on his face. He also has bit of a trimmed hair on the front sides of his head.

Due to its short appareance, nothing is known about Craig's personality. But he is shown to be a cold-hearted, yet intelligent man who seems to be mature enough to admit that he and his fellow soldiers have severely underestimated class 3-E.


Assassination Classroom

Gakuho has neatly combed brown hair and brown eyes (violet in the anime). He wears a formal business suit that is unique from the other staff members in Kunugigaoka as it's brown instead of the usual grey or black. He also wears a sawtooth leaf pin on his tie that was given to him as a present from his cram students.
During his life running a cram school, Gakuho's hair was unkempt and reached down to his ears, similar to his son's hair. Also, he usually dressed more casually than formal when teaching.
When he was younger, he used to have strawberry blonde hair like Gakushu Asano .

Gakuho's most prominent aspect of his personality is his strong fixation on perfecting his pedagogy. His obsession with education gives him an abnormal sense of prioritization, putting the maintenance of his educational ideals over the world's future. He prioritizes its maintenance even over basic morality, willing to suggest things that has made even his own son question him, such as when he suggested that Class A poison Class E's restaurant food. Additionally, he is also unafraid to get his hands dirty to make sure that his system stays intact, notably when he takes his educational methods to the classroom for the first trimester midterm exams, giving the entire main school building a personal lesson and purposely excluding Class E just to ensure that they do not pass. The maintenance of this system is his primary driving force throughout the series and as a result, shows disappointment when Class E surpasses the other classes.
Although he prioritizes the maintenance of his system above all else, he also seems to desire to prove his methods are indeed correct, so he never tampers with scores that have already been earned. For example, for the second trimester exams, he encourages the teachers to ramp up their difficulty to be akin to a college or university exam so that his students may compete with Class E on a level befitting their educational prowess. For those very exams, he allows the honest placement of the top students and grades without modifying or censoring them, showing the exact outcome of his educational bout with Korosensei, even though the outcome was unfavorable to him. Thus, although he's not above using underhanded methods to influence the final results, he respects whatever those final results may be.
His skewed sense of morality is also shown with his relationship with his son, with constant pressure to produce results and utterly defeat his foes, such as Class E, in perfect victory being a defining point of their relationship. He also uses his son for his own aims, never once treating him as his own kin and instead only as a useful tool for the maintenance of his system. He is also willing to mock his son's inability to produce the desired perfect victory over Class E, viewing his son's frustration with loss as a way to make him stronger, regardless of the emotional toll.
In the past, his personality and teaching methods were almost mirror images of Korosensei's. He allowed students to do mock assassination attempts on him only to evade them at the last moment, similar to Korosensei, during class time, saying that anyone who can land a proper hit on him can have free time. He also teased his students using his exceptional skills, much like Korosensei. Overall, he was a kind and caring teacher who wanted to raise his students to be "good". He particularly cared about three specific students who were the first to attend his cram school, which in ten years time will become what is now known as Kunugigaoka Academy. He kept a close relationship with them and even kept in touch with them after their graduation.
However, when one of them was driven to suicide from constant bullying in high school, Asano's worldview was broken and his personality flipped. He came to believe that his ideal way of teaching kids to become "good" adults instead of "strong" adults was the reason for his student's death and blamed himself for it. He eventually used his charms and manipulative skills to ruin the bullies' lives by turning them into gambling addicts. He continued to change his teaching methods and thus created the current Kunugigaoka system.
After his defeat at the hands of Korosensei, he appears to have somewhat reverted back to his old self after seeing that Class E follows his old principles of teaching; as a result Asano becomes more mellow; although Class 3-E still exists, he no longer encourages the students and staff to look down on them.


Assassination Classroom

Gakushu has short blonde hair (strawberry blonde in the anime) that reaches his ears and brown eyes (violet in the anime).
He is described as being rather handsome and he has been noted to highly resemble his father Gakuho Asano .

Like many of the Main Building students, Gakushu looks down on those who are less intelligent than him, which, in this case, mostly incorporates the entire school as he is the top student. However, he breaks away from this stereotype by putting up a face of benevolence and a charismatic smile.
Befitting his genius intellect and heritage, Gakushu is a very driven individual who is very much like his father Gakuho Asano in a lot of ways, although one could argue that he is far less extreme in virtue than his father is. He is highly manipulative to the point of wanting to control everyone and puppeteer the strings. The most frightening aspect of this is his desire to completely dominate his own father. Another note is his keen desire for knowledge and sense of investigation to get to the truth. Hearing local reports and urban rumors about Class 3-E 's supposed octopus (actually Korosensei ), Gakushu has made it his top priority to get to the bottom of this mystery. Indeed, he has resorted to methods that even he himself has briefly questioned in order to acquire this information, from blackmail, bribery and even legal backup (making Class 3-E sign a contract). However, despite his intelligence, he tends to miscalculate certain more admirable aspects of the people he is trying to manipulate, which has led to his plots failing no more than two times in the story.
Despite sharing many of his father's personality traits, Gakushu does have his own sense of morality, which often makes him question his father's extreme educational methods. For instance, he voiced his opposition against his father's idea of poisoning Class 3-E's food during the school festival.
He appears to place more value in winning honorably than his father does, but he is not above bending the rules, either. For example, he called over his extremely muscular and athletic friends from overseas just to win against Class E in the pole-topping tournament.


Assassination Classroom

Appearance-wise, Gastro is one of the more flamboyant-looking characters in the series. He has dark, spiked-up hair and furrowed brows, and tends to wear classy clothing. Strangely, when his gun is in his mouth, his eyes tend to go unfocused and point in different directions.

Gastro is a professional hitman who takes pride in his skills. Although he is a capable professional, he has a sense of honor shown when he refused to lethally poison a class of junior high students. However, he has one particularly odd personality quirk; he considers the flavor of guns to be exquisite, and is often seen with his pistol jammed into his mouth (occasionally covered in soup).


Assassination Classroom

Grip is a foreigner with wavy platinum blond hair and light blue eyes. His hair reaches past his chin and is parted and wavy. He wears a white beaded necklace and is commonly seen in dark or black clothing.

Grip is a somewhat quiet man with a calm air about him. He's shown to be honorable and collected, but is not above threatening a person. He appears to take great pride in his strength as well. Grip also appears to be mildly eccentric as stated Gastro due to his use of "-nu" and the reasoning.


Assassination Classroom

Hideki has a pair of eyes with small pupils and has short black hair with the top part combed backwards.
Like most of his classmates, Hideki sports a black jacket over a patterned shirt along with black pants as part of his school uniform.

Assassination Classroom

Hinano has wavy chin-length orange hair, olive-brown eyes (peridot-green eyes in the anime) and she has a more petite frame than most of the girls in Class 3-E .

Hinano's personality is an energetic and positive girl who is always seen with a smile on her face regardless of whether she's trying to assassinate Korosensei or whatever else. Hinano is also a passionate animal and nature lover. She was also noted to be a "reliable assistant" for the group of boys who are on the path to becoming "sleazebags." This stems from the fact that she has older siblings who are all boys and as a result can handle even the sleaziest talk. She is a very soothing and calming person and is described as being innocent and genuine. She is also good at making money, particularly being able to assess the price of the stag beetles she was hoping to capture and sell and at the end of the manga managing to get parents to pay her handsomely to take their kids on nature hikes.


Assassination Classroom

Okano has short brown hair that is the shortest amongst all of the girls in Class 3-E and brown eyes (light purple/pink eyes in the anime).

In her initial appearances, Okano was often shown to be serious with a relatively neutral expression. As the series goes on, she's later shown to also be playful in addition to being serious. She is also described as someone who acts before she thinks, and since served as their Class 3-E students and as Hiroto Maehara 's girlfriend. Meg Kataoka said that Okano is an honest person, but gets really stubborn when she's angry.


Assassination Classroom

Hiromi has been described as a "pretty, but strict looking" woman who is said to hold a strong resemblance to Nagisa Shiota with short dark hair (her hair is shown as dark navy blue In the anime, implying that Nagisa inherited his blue hair from her).

In the beginning, Hiromi is portrayed as antagonistic to Nagisa Shiota , being extremely controlling of Nagisa's life. She forces him to keep his hair long and makes him wear female outfits despite his dislike of it. When defied by others, she bursts into loud fits of rage, like when she yelled angrily at Koro-sensei. Later though, she becomes more lenient with Nagisa especially when her son saved her life from an assassin hiding to attack Korosensei . Since then, the two appear to be on better terms.


Assassination Classroom

Hiroto has wavy mid-short light-brown hair that has bangs hanging on either side, light brown eyes (both eyes are orange-brown in the anime) and he is fairly tall for a middle school student.
He has been noted to be very good-looking from the girl's point of view and he is one of the few that is popular in the whole school despite being in the E Class .

Maehara is a nice guy and in every sense of the word, a playboy and he has a "live the moment" attitude about life in general as shown when he wasn't too bothered about being dumped by Kaho Tsuchiya .
Despite that attitude, he is a caring person and isn't the type to pick on someone weaker than him. He also falls into the type of being honest and often reacts strongly to things.


Assassination Classroom

Hotaru is a short, small-framed girl with waist-length light-colored hair that is tied into a pair of ponytails and dark-colored eyes. Her overall appearance bears a striking resemblance to Nagisa Shiota 's, which Korosensei has noted.

Hotaru is a kind and friendly girl, a trait admired by the pub's four regulars . Despite her cheerful personality, she is not afraid to risk her life for her loved ones, as shown when she drew a kitchen knife while declaring she would save her mother Azusa . [1]


Assassination Classroom

Irina is a beautiful fair-skinned young woman with wavy hip-length blonde hair that is split in the middle, large light-blue eyes, long legs and a curvy figure that she often utilizes to seduce and manipulate her targets on the job.
She is usually seen wearing high-end brands and fashionable clothing which emphasize her flattering form. This often causes Tadaomi Karasuma to reprimand her for wearing "inappropriate" clothing for a teacher.

At first, Irina was shown to be a cruel, calculating and arrogant woman with little regard for the students of Class 3-E (earning her the nickname "Bitch-sensei"). Because of her high hit count and model-like appearance, she is a confident woman, experienced and has been described as giving off a mature, black widow vibe by her students because of such.
Although these are all traits she carries, in actuality once her cover has been completely shattered she is shown to be childish, and has a lack of social understanding. Underneath her confidence is insecurities she has carried with her since childhood and a surprisingly humble person who can be earnest. She is not the type that easily gives up and because of her young age, connects well with her students once she gets past her ego. It is because of these students that she shows a softer side, showing that she is not as hard-edged as she may come off.


Assassination Classroom

Itona has short, spiked platinum blond hair (light blue-tinted white in the anime) which he later wears a large bandana over and sharp light blue eyes (yellow/amber in the anime). Although fairly short, he possesses a strong build.

Originally, Itona had developed a hunger for strength from abandonment and being bullied, and thus hated the idea of losing or any position which made him weak. As such, he allowed Shiro to implant him with tentacles and became obsessed with killing the powerful Korosensei in order to prove that he was the strongest. He is also a brutally honest and direct individual. While under the influence of the tentacles, Itona mimicked Korosensei's interests and hobbies, examples being an interest in big boobs and eating the same snacks.
After being abandoned by Shiro and befriending Terasaka and his gang, Itona has since become more mellow and humble, and is now able to admit people are stronger than him, while still retaining his brutal honesty. He has also shown to be a very observant and creative individual. Thanks to Terasaka's words of encouragement, as well as Class 3-E's admiration of his abilities, Itona's desire to kill Korosensei became less self-centered and is willing to work together with Class 3-E, becoming much more sociable and involved with his classmates. His perversion, however still lingered as shown when he volunteered to use his self-built tank to look up the girls' skirts.


Assassination Classroom

Jerome has a strong physical build, which has charmed many of his fans. He has short light hair with one half combed to the side, as well as a pair of light-colored eyes. Jerome wears a white button down shirt and dark-colored pants with a belt.

Jerome's most notable traits are his overconfidence and cocky attitude. He does not hesitate to show off whenever possible and voices disapproval toward his director if something does not go his way, such as when he complained about being unable to do his own stunts.
During film shoots, he frequently makes advances to his co-star Kayano and makes attempts to set up intimate situations between the two, but is rejected or dismissed in one way or another. Jerome also flirts with every girl in Class 3-E , but to his humiliation ends up being rejected by each one of them. [1]


Assassination Classroom

Kayano is a short girl with shoulder-length (when let down completely as seen in Episode 8 ) light-green hair that is always fashioned in unique cat ear-styled pigtails with square bangs hanging over her eyebrows, hazel-colored eyes and a running gag for her appearance is that she does not have noticeable breasts like the other female students in the class, giving her the nickname "Forever Flat".
In reality, her light-green hair was revealed to be dyed and her original hair color/hairstyle is shown to be wavy waist-length black hair. When overwhelmed by the tentacles, her hazel eyes became red as a result of her bloodlust. Once her tentacles were removed, she went back to her cat ear-styled pigtails and her eyes returned to hazel.
After seven years since graduating from middle school, she went back to her original hairstyle before joining Class 3-E and she has also grown taller, being just shy of Nagisa Shiota 's height. Additionally, her chest has slightly grown.

Kayano is one of the most kind, cheerful and passive members of the class who frequently acts as support in assassination attempts with her ability to assess the situation and adapt herself to them. [4]
Despite her apparent passive nature, Kayano is an empathic and strong-willed person who can be extremely determined to the things that interest her or cares about, such as her love for sweets, and more tragically, her older sister Aguri Yukimura 's fate. She also experiences a severe complex when it comes to her sex appeal, loudly voicing her discomfort when being around large breasted women.
Before confronting Korosensei , the passive and cheerful personality was a facade to hide her true motives. Her only true attributes were her tenacity, adapting skill, and sex appeal complex, the rest being mere fabrications; her love for sweets may have resulted from the influence of the tentacles . [5] However, after getting her tentacles removed, the happy personality she created became a true part of who she is.


Assassination Classroom

Kaho has dark shoulder-length straight hair that has bangs hanging over her forehead, big dark-colored eyes and a slender figure.

Even though Kaho tries to come off as merely playful, she is an unfaithful and a two-timing girl who has no problems using others to save herself when needed in reality.


Assassination Classroom

Karma has pale skin, short red hair and pale sharp eyes that appear as either mercury or goldish in color. Behind his usual innocent-looking, smiling face hides a torturous and rather sadistic personality. He has a slender build and has also been shown to have exceptionally sharp canine teeth. In the anime, Karma is considered to be the most physically attractive out of all the boys in Class 3-E by the girls.
Among all the Class 3-E students, Karma is the only one to wear a black blazer as opposed to the standard school-issued uniform.
Seven years after graduation, Karma has grown considerably taller, he has swept-back hair and his eyes also appear moderately less threatening.

Karma is well-known throughout the school for his violent behavior and troublesome attitude where he is quite cunning, mischievous and somewhat sadistic, usually playing foul, tricking, and at times manipulating, humiliating and fighting others. He has been described by Tadaomi Karasuma as "at first glance, he comes across as being a lazy sort, but there's a strong sense of mischief in his eyes" and Itona Horibe has described him to have "certain vision" to Ryoma Terasaka .
Karma is quite relaxed most of the time as he occasionally skips out on things he finds boring, such as the school assembly. However, he has become considerably more hard working at studying after the embarrassing exam arc although he hides it by making it look like he was playing video games. Unexpectedly, Karma is a fan of superhero movies, like Sonic Ninja.
Despite his somewhat sadistic nature, Karma actually has good values behind his motives, and can be quite empathetic. The reason he was placed in Class 3-E was that he had rescued a senior from Class E being bullied by students from the main building. He is, unlike his former classmates, unprejudiced against Class E. He believes each and every one of them have their own special talents and will defend them, especially against Class A.
When he was in the main building, due to the betrayal of his most-trusted homeroom teacher , Karma began to hate all people who called themselves 'teachers' and as a result, he had almost zero respect for any adults. However, Karma has become more objective after meeting Korosensei , now respecting more of his opponents' and teachers' strengths and weaknesses.
Karma has shown to be more than capable of respecting and caring for other people, as he greatly cares for Nagisa who seems to be his friend, and has grown attached to his classmates and others: he is best friends with Nagisa Shiota , he gets along with Manami Okuda and Rio Nakamura , he often teases Terasaka and respects Gakushu Asano while he sees him as his intellectual rival. He also forms a bond with Korosensei, breaking down crying when he died. However, Karma also tends to be quite impulsive, to the point of becoming truly brutal and cruel when fighting with people who threaten him or any of his friends from Class E.


Assassination Classroom

Kazutaka is a large tan-skinned male with short and spiky black hair, sharp dark-colored eyes and he possesses an athletic build.

Like most of the main school students, Kazutaka has great pride thanks to his success in school. However, compared to the more egotistic main school students, he can show genuine respect toward others who have proven to be powerful baseball players despite their class status such as Tomohito Sugino .
As a further example that he is not as discriminatory and immoral as the main campus students, he was unwilling to injure Karma Akabane and Yuma Isogai despite the principal 's hypnotic efforts to install in him the need to trample on others to get ahead. He is also mildly eccentric as evident when he makes announcements regarding the Big Five over the phone when telling Sugino with them.


Assassination Classroom

Ono has short dark brown hair with thin-shaped eyes, and mostly seen with a serious expression and lightly tanned skin.

Like many of the faculty of the main building, Ono is antagonistic and cruel, occasionally towards Class E. Ono is also very uncaring as he doesn't care about the well being of his students or how they behave unless it benefit his reputation as a successful teacher.
However, despite his support of Gakuhō Asano 's education policy, he expresses shock when the chairman plans to supercharge the final exams to be solved with college-level subjects [1] .


Assassination Classroom

Hazama is a slender light-skinned girl with wavy shoulder-length black hair that is split on either side and pink eyes with thick lower eyelashes. As such, she comes off as very gloomy and melancholic where she believes that part of the reason why she looks the way she does is due to her mother being prone ( likely to or liable to suffer from, do, or experience something, typically something regrettable or unwelcome ) to screaming fits, thus preventing her from looking cute like her given name.
Seven years since graduation, she is seen with much longer hair where it reaches just above her waist and she now has a gentler and more relaxed facial expression as shown when she smiles gently at a young girl who asks her a question.

Hazama is a quiet girl who loves reading, preferring to sit in the shade with a book rather than swim during summer gym classes and wants to become a librarian. She even recommended to Itona Horibe the novel, The Count of Monte Cristo , although she accidentally spoiled the ending. She prefers dark stories and horror novels, and because of this, she also has an interest in the occult which she displayed when she attempted to use a curse on Korosensei .
Oddly, she also seems to take great pleasure in scaring and disturbing others, admitting that she'd been scaring people on roadsides since she was a child. Her script for Class 3-E 's play was also very grim and depressing, taking pride in disturbing the school so much that they lost their appetites.
It is hinted that she has some home troubles with her mother being hysterical and prone to screaming fits when she meets something she doesn't like.


Assassination Classroom

He is a pudgy man with spiky black hair. He has a small, three-day beard.

He is confident in himself and the baseball team. However, upon seeing the Class E surpass the baseball club, he feels like he’s having a nightmare. The principal touches his forehead and declares that he is burning up with a fever. Kiyoshi Terai is then transferred to the infirmary.


Assassination Classroom

Mimura has light brown hair styled in bowl cut, light-colored eyes (orange-brown and green in the anime) and he is noted for having a plain appearance.

During the civil war, he was eliminated when Isogai spotted him scouting and shot him.


Assassination Classroom

Kokona has wavy dark-colored hair that is tied in pigtails by pearl hair ties, dark-colored eyes with long lashes and a round face.

Kokona is a self-centered and selfish girl due to her neglecting Meg Kataoka 's need to study for her own grades and making her feel guilty for Kokona's incident. She thought that after just a bit of swimming practice she would be good enough to swim in the sea. The title of her own pick-up box is "Doesn't the world exist solely for me?!", hinting at her egoism. She loves the spotlight.


Assassination Classroom

Korosensei has the appearance of a yellow octopus who is about three meters tall and possessed a large, bulbous head with a large smile that rarely breaks or moves, and small, beady eyes. He uses two tentacles as arms, each having two feelers as fingers, and utilized the rest of seemingly jelly-like limbs - his tentacles - to walk. Korosensei has a pair of hidden nostrils, which make him appear to have four eyes if detected. Due to his constant grinning, he changes his color to express his emotions.
Korosensei wears a black academic dress, a small black squarish mortarboard cap with a yellow tassel and a large black tie with a yellow crescent-shaped moon on it, a gift from Aguri Yukimura .
As a human, he had pale skin, a slender build, dark eyes, and short black hair that reached to his nape. He sports an amicable smile, which was initially used to manipulate others. When carrying out assassinations, he donned formal clothing. After being taken prisoner by Kotaro Yanagisawa , he was put in patients' scrubs until his escape and transformation.

It was revealed that he was raised in an environment "where everybody could easily betray one another to the point that one could only trust oneself". Through these hardships, he decided to become an assassin to survive. Despite gaining an apprentice, he only saw him as a tool for his goals, which drove the latter to finally betray his master.
However, after meeting Aguri Yukimura , he finally knew what compassion really was--becoming much more kind and compassionate. According to Aguri, if he was born in a peaceful country, he would be "a little lecherous, smart, klutzy, kind of stingy and stubborn" and he would smile because he is genuinely a kind person. [3] This prediction happens to reflect his personality; which became forefront after he answered the tentacles.
When first introduced, Korosensei was an upbeat individual who demanded absurd and seemingly mundane requests despite claiming he would be the cause of the planet's destruction in a year. He was also rather kind to others in general and could switch from silly and childish to serious on the fly. According to Nagisa Shiota , Korosensei also was unintentionally petty at others at times and loved gossip, both traits heavily noted throughout the series.
From time to time pieces of his old personality as The Reaper were visible such as when Ryoma Terasaka tried to sacrifice Nagisa to kill Korosensei and Korosensei menacingly threatened all of their families if they tried another self-harming attempt like that. In that moment, he resorted to his old method of teaching through fear. As the series progresses, his character development renders him more and more capable of true empathy and learning to use that empathy to teach lessons instead of through fear and reward like he had with his first student .
Korosensei deeply cared for his students' emotional and physical well-being and would lose his temper whenever any of them were put in danger, even by one another. On the annual school trip to Kyoto, a few of his students were assaulted/kidnapped by a gang of high schoolers hidden in an alley. After searching the entire area painstakingly, he infiltrated the abandoned building where two of his students, Yukiko Kanzaki and Kaede Kayano , were being held at and single-handedly beat up all of the high schoolers, scaring them away. [4]
One of Korosensei's attributes was that he was able to connect to each student individually, being an objective, empathetic, and observant person who will do almost anything to help his students. This was why all the students respected him even though he would blow up the Earth in a year. Taking care of each student's needs, Korosensei would sometimes be piqued by a student's current problems or interests and would try his best to guide the student along or solve it for them.
Korosensei loved sweets almost to extreme cases, [5] and was also shown to be a very perverted character, a trait he shares with his student Taiga Okajima and Itona Horibe. This characteristic was revealed to be the side effect of the experimentation with anti-matter tentacles which made him unable to hide his true feelings.


Assassination Classroom

Takebayashi has black hair that is combed over along the sides of his head and he wears round eyeglasses. He looks similar to the persona of manga artist Mizuki Shigeru , enough for Korosensei to be spooked by the resemblance.
His uniform consists of a suit jacket worn over a dress shirt and a black tie, as well as dress pants and dress shoes

Takebayashi is mostly a quiet person. However, he seems somewhat eccentric in his behavior and stands out as the oddball in the class. He also seems to be clumsy at physical activity, having ping pong balls hit his glasses while playing with others and nearly losing balance in one of Tadaomi Karasuma 's lessons. [1] [2] He initially wanted to leave Class 3-E and seemed ashamed to be in the class but decided to stay when he realized how much his class and Korosensei cared for him and vice versa. He is also obsessed with anime, at one point stating "A girl isn't a true girl until she loses the third D" implying he likes anime girls more than real women. He also enjoys going to maid cafes.


Assassination Classroom

While in costume, Shiro wears white robes and a mask over his face, all made from anti-sensei fibers. Additionally, the back of his torso is adorned with a Bohr model of the hydrogen atom. Shiro also utilizes a voice modifier to further hide his identity from Korosensei. [2]
When unmasked, Yanagisawa has short, wavy dark green hair and pale teal eyes, along with fair skin. As a result of his confrontation with Korosensei two years prior to the events of the story, a prosthetic eye replaces his left.
After injecting himself with a modified version of the tentacles, Yanagisawa discards his mask and top robes, revealing a black tank-top underneath. Dark veins sprawl across his entire body and the muscles in his arm bulge to shape themselves like tentacles, allowing him to conceal a syringe inside them. Additionally, in the manga, the sclera in his right eye becomes completely black; in the anime, his eye simply becomes paler.

During his first appearance, Shiro seems humorous and easygoing, and although he retains this attitude while he and Itona Horibe attack Korosensei , it soon becomes clear that he is conniving, manipulative, and ruthless in his ambitions. Furthermore, he sees practically everyone other than himself as disposable. A notable example was in his past as a researcher, where he was revealed to be quite apathetic; he was willing to use human guinea pigs for his research and took out his anger on his coworkers and subordinates, including his fiancée Aguri Yukimura , for getting in the way of his research.
Yanagisawa's sadism intensifies after augmenting himself with the tentacle cells. At that point, his lust to destroy Korosensei came to a point where he no longer cared about whether he lived or died in the process. His amplified sadism is notably shown when Yanagisawa laughs at Kaede Kayano 's apparent demise while stating that it was funny to see her dying like her sister.
It is implied that he sought perfection from his research, focusing on Akari Yukimura and Itona, who were both implanted with tentacles.


Assassination Classroom

Lovro has a very well built physique, showing the appearance of an experienced assassin and mentor. He has short black hair and a deep, ridged black eye line circling his pinprick brown eyes. His older age is noticeable by the creased lines in his skin such as his protruding cheek bones and clearly defined chin.
Lovro wears a black turtleneck top under an unbuttoned white shirt doubled with a black blazer, suit trousers that crease at the ankles and black shoes to match as well as black gloves. He wears a grey trench coat over the top of his clothes. Additionally, he has a scar on his left eye.

Lovro is very sneaky and confident in his own assassination skills. He was even ignorant to how time had weakened his abilities during his first appearance. He seems to believe in Class 3-E and was willing to help train them, even teaching Nagisa the stun clap technique.


Assassination Classroom

Manami is a cute girl with black hair (sometimes with a purplish tint) that is styled into low twin braids that reach just below her shoulder, brown eyes (dark-purple eyes in the anime), she wears round-shaped glasses and she has a more petite frame than most of the girls in Class 3-E .
Seven years after graduating Class 3-E, her hair is styled into a single braid that rests over her left shoulder instead of her usual twin braids.

Okuda is a somewhat awkward, timid, shy and rather introverted girl who had poor language skills, which caused her to be quite incredibly straightforward.
Despite her introversion, Okuda is a sweet and very determined girl who hopes to be useful to her friends and classmates. After meeting Korosensei , Okuda has turned into a much more sensible individual who can express herself more.


Assassination Classroom

Mario has slicked-back dark hair with a pair of dark eyes. He has a mustache.


Assassination Classroom

Kimura has dark brownish green hair which spikes up in many ridges ending in a triangular tip and black eyes.

Kimura is one of the relatively proactive students when it comes to assassination and aims to claim the 10 billion yen reward. [1]


Assassination Classroom

Kataoka is a tall girl with light brown hair that is kept in a low ponytail with straight square bangs.
She is described as being "dashing" by Nagisa Shiota while she has the physique and making of a model, according to Irina Jelavić 's fashion reviews of the students. This combined with her personality and talents earned her the title "Ikemegu".

Kataoka is a kind and capable girl with very strong leadership skills which has been noted several times in the series. She's level-headed and rational and as a result is good at keeping everyone (namely the boys) in line. She was said to know how to take care of others, however, in the past, she allowed others to rely on her too much. A running gag is that she seems to have a relationship complex and seems to be greatly concerned about not being feminine enough.


Assassination Classroom

Nagisa is a petite-framed boy (who is known for his androgynous appearance that has often been poked fun at by many people) with blue hair that goes past his shoulders due to his mother Hiromi Shiota forcing him to keep it that way and he kept it in a long ponytail until Kaede Kayano joined the classroom where she styled it in two pigtails and azure-colored eyes.
Seven years after graduation, his hair is noticeably shorter and no longer tied in pigtails, although he still keeps his bangs. He retains his signature uniform waist coat when working as a teacher.

Nagisa is a calm, collected and friendly individual who can be exceptionally observant and circumspect of his surroundings and the situations that develop around him. He tends to pay strict attention to Korosensei in hopes to understand the motives of the mysterious being and compiles the information he has gathered in his notes for reference.
Nagisa is noticeably more reserved and shy than other students in his class, thinking much more than actually talking and referring to himself as "invisible" because of this. He seems to be commonly nervous about what he says in important situations, being hesitant and harboring a slight stutter, which is possibly due to his mother telling him he "isn't good enough". However, Nagisa is not easily fazed by things that would unnerve the average person as shown in his interactions with Karma Akabane and the prospect of using a real knife.
Despite his calm and empathetic demeanor, Nagisa possessed deep insecurity about his talents and how he was perceived by the people around him. This was reflected by a lack of goals and general pessimism about his own future, which caused him to end up in Class 3-E . However, Nagisa eventually gained more self-esteem, became more objective, and found his own goals, thanks to his experiences with his classmates and especially with Korosensei.


Assassination Classroom

Nagisa's father has short light hair that is looked to be grayish blue, like his son's. However, in the second season of the anime, his hair is dark grey/black and his eyes are black as well.

Nagisa's father appears to be a calm man who feels guilty for leaving Nagisa. He still cares for his son, shown when he takes him out for sushi.


Assassination Classroom

Koyama wears black framed glasses and appears to have crooked teeth. His hair are black, long, and shaggy, giving him a disgruntled look. His face is often contorted with an overly large smile and squinted eyes, accentuating his strangeness.He also looks to have a unibrow. Also with uneven teeth.

Koyama is not different from the rest of the Five Virtuosos in terms of behavior and temperament. He, like most other people in the main campus, looks down on the E class students and he is constantly frustrated when beaten by them. He is an extremely intelligent person and excels in science, despite being constantly beat out for the top spots.


Assassination Classroom

Nise has a plump face along with a round nose and eyes which appear to stay closed. While assuming the identity of Ritsu, Nise wears the standard female Kunugigaoka outfit and takes on Ritsu's hair style.

Her name is a pun, since "Nise" is homophonous to nise (偽) which means "false" or "counterfeit", referencing her role as a substitute for the actual Ritsu.


Assassination Classroom

In contrast to the lanky Chosuke Takada , Tanaka is thickly built with a round face. He has black spiked hair, narrow eyes, freckles on his face, and lightly tanned skin.

Just like Chosuke Takada , Tanaka is very disrespectful to Class 3-E as he takes what he says very lightly, casually threatening to "kill" Nagisa Shiota without thinking of the implications of his words. However, he will cowardly back away if he were to be intimidated, such as when he ran away from Nagisa upon being given a glimpse of the latter's bloodlust. He will also back off if he were to be confronted by someone better than him in any way.


Assassination Classroom

Olga is a tall, delicate looking young woman with long hair ending in curls.

Despite the grim circumstances that surround her in her first appearance, she smiles calmly throughout the whole ordeal, suggesting a calm demeanor and disposition.


Assassination Classroom

Rawan is a man with a well-built physical frame. He has thick eyebrows over a pair of small eyes as well as a large nose and a small stubble. Rawan has dark hair tied into a small ponytail. He dons a dark buttoned-up t-shirt over a white undershirt.

Rawan is a ruthless and brute individual who can be easily provoked. When challenged by Jerome to a minor fistfight, Rawan unleashed a high kick that stopped mere centimeters from Jerome's face, scaring the latter off. He was willing to use Kaede Kayano as a hostage so that he and his group of bandits could escape with the statue unharmed.


Assassination Classroom

Red Eye had short blond hair and dark eyes that are normally covered by dark sunglasses and fair skin. He is commonly seen with a poncho and wears a beanie over his head. When the God of Death came to kill him while he was travelling, he was seen without his hat and sunglasses.

With a record of thirty five kills, Red Eye is quite confident with his skills as a sniper. [1] Perhaps because of this confidence, he welcomes a challenge as seen when his first attempt at assassinating Korosensei failed. [2] However, he knows his limitations and is willing to give up on a job that he thinks would be impossible for him to complete. [3]


Assassination Classroom

Ren is a fair-skinned teenage boy who is considered extremely attractive (just like Gakushu Asano ) with black hair (brown hair in the anime) that is fashioned into a kariage (clipped) hairstyle where it is flipped to the right side and almond-shaped green eyes.

Like the other Big Five , Ren is an arrogant person who also appears to be rather narcissistic. However, he isn't rude and comes across as quiet, which may stem from his affinity with poetry and the humanities. He's flirtatious and often uses his knowledge in poetry to flirt with girls. He normally doesn't take part in the Class 3-E bashing and it's possible that he holds a degree of respect for their abilities (as shown during the first finals arc where he complimented Yukiko Kanzaki for her ability to understand the words).
Out of all of the Big Five members, Ren is arguably the nicest.


Assassination Classroom

Hayami has medium-length wavy light-brown hair (orange-brown hair in the anime) that has bangs hanging over her eyebrows on either side and notably sharp brown eyes (sea-green eyes in the anime) that reflects on her serious personality and they are probably the reason why she's labeled a Tsundere.
She was shown to have three different hairstyles:

In her earlier appearances, she wore her hair down, but after seeing her hairstyle was identical to Irina Jelavić 's [1] , she began wearing them in low pigtails. [2] In the anime, she has always styled her hair into low pigtails. Seven years after graduation, she is seen with longer hair that is no longer tied in pigtails.

Hayami is a very stoic, businesslike and professional girl who has been compared to a working adult along with Ryunosuke Chiba . As a result of her serious demeanor, she can be quite straightforward and direct.
In her initial appearances, Hayami was shown with a much more mild personality, conversing and even smiling with other students, but gradually became more stoic.
However, she secretly has a much softer and sweet side to her personality as shown in a picture of her cheerfully holding a kitten. [3]


Assassination Classroom

Nakamura is described as the “cool and gorgeous girl” of Class 3-E with long straight strawberry blonde hair (a darker blonde color in the OVA) that is parted in the middle and worn swept behind her shoulders and aqua-blue eyes (sometimes appearing as light gray) with notably long eyelashes. The colors of her hair and eyes give her the appearance of a stereotypical Caucasian girl, even though she is Japanese, although her hair does appear to be dyed as in a flashback she appears with a darker shade (black in the manga and dark yellow in the anime). [1]
She wears the Kunugigaoka Junior High School uniform with the assigned pale yellow sweater rather than the gray blazer.

Nakamura is a girl whose sleaziness can put even Class 3-E ’s perverted genie Taiga Okajima to shame, but she also shows the keen intellect of someone known as a former child prodigy. At the same time, she also greatly enjoys teasing others, displaying a genius-level gift for it. She has a nose for finding people to mess with.
She is also a friendly and energetic girl who is somewhat of a trickster where her favorite victim, along with Karma Akabane , is Nagisa Shiota . She's playful, has a dirty mind and she has been noted to be rather intelligent. She claims she was originally a serious person, something that would prove to be true when she disagreed with Nagisa's proposition to save Korosensei and continue to kill him.
Despite her eccentric nature, she can see the bigger picture and hides how she feels, but she cares about Class E more than anyone. She also felt responsible for the bond between the class and Koro-sensei.
On one hand, she can play the role of Class 3-E's resident mischief chick. On the other hand, when the situation calls for it she can be quite straightforward. Even Ryoma Terasaka started to wonder which between the two of them is the more outrageous kid in class.


Assassination Classroom

Ritsu's main body Autonomously Intelligent Fixed Artillery is a large rectangular robotic casing with a video screen. Inside the casing is an assortment of weaponry as well as a 3D printer allowing her to perform various tasks. She is the youngest student of the class at the age of fourteen.
Originally, Ritsu was just a head with lilac hair and red eyes. However, after Korosensei modified her body and increased the size of her screen, her full appearance was shown and her eyes change to a red color fading to light blue. Her outfit changes depending on the situation; swimwear when the class went swimming, a detective outfit when they were solving mysteries. She is most commonly shown in the winter school uniform.
In Koro-Sensei Quest! , Ritsu is unquestionably one of the most altered figures, being a more versatile and humanistic ancient magical stone tablet instead of futuristic artillery. Despite retaining her black casing, she can simply spring out a human's limbs just like a normal girl wearing her casing. In an emergency, she can purge herself out of the casing as a program, allowing Kotaro Takebayashi to wear her casing and becoming a 2D program himself.

Initially, Ritsu was focused only on killing Korosensei at all costs, apathetic to the interests of her fellow students who would have to clean up the messes she made with her assassination attempts. Even after Korosensei told her that gunfire was not permitted during class time, Ritsu would endlessly attempt to assassinate him regardless of the occasion.
Once she was remodeled by Korosensei, she gained genuine emotion and thus, a more happy and cheerful personality. As a result, she learned the importance of teamwork and how to work with her other classmates. As such, she was willing to hide her new programming from her original creators out of gratitude.
