* CharClone: Hana retains Girlfriend's red ColorMotifs, has undisclosed family relations to a Holomem, is the star of her own show under an alias, has CoolShades that obscure her identity relative to public photos, and left her family to be with Kenji, checking off the vast majority of the criteria for this trope.
Deleted line(s) 196 (click to see context) :
* ForWantOfANail: Hana's only change in this universe compared to the original Girlfriend is being smarter. However, this means that being held up by a bunch of Tankmen in a military zone stings much more than in vanilla, causing Hana to leave her family.

Though Kenji is no longer canon, his sprites are used for Boyfriend's default appearance in the current version of the game; this is also true for Girlfriend. As a result, any tropes found in their sprites apply to both versions of the characters.
Added DiffLines:
* KillerYoYo: His halo is able to detach, and his unused attacking animations (meant to replicate those on the original Boyfriend's spritesheet) reveal he can fight with it by telekinetically controlling it as if it were a chakram on a string.

You can't demote a character to an extra in an adaptation or revision if they're not supposed to be the same character by the end of it. That trope goes to the revised sheet.

* AmbiguousDisorder: While officially marked as neurodivergent, it's never explicitly stated just ''what'' it is Kenji has. The main hints towards a proper guess are Kenji mentioning he has trouble filtering out background noise, and his noted lack of articulation when expressing himself. If he truly is ''the'' Boyfriend, though, it's likely a mix of ADHD and autism based on developer commentary for the original.
Added DiffLines:
* HandicappedBadass: Deliberately very strongly implied to have the ADHD and autism of the original Boyfriend, but takes on a horde of thugs in his debut and both defeats them all and manages to heal completely. And of course, there's all of his accomplishments from both vanilla and modded to consider, amplified by how this version of him actually ''knows'' what he's doing is both dangerous and possibly stupid.

%%Expy (as in, "Exported Character") is for those who are created as unambiguous, deliberate copy of other older characters. Aloe existed before as her own character in hololive, meaning she wasn't created as a copy, just adopted the characterization of Haruka.

* AdaptationalVillainy: The original Haachama, while no doubt crazy, generally limited her murderous tendencies and psychological horror towards her TwoSiblingsInOne twin sister Akai Haato, and her cooking was at best [[CordonBleughChef incompetent and disgusting]] and at worst featured the use of a long dead, dehydrated and packaged tarantula.

* AffablyEvil: She remains as excited and chipper as ever, even as she attempts to turn her fellow talents into dishes. It's this trope and not [[FauxAffablyEvil its counterpart]] because she seems to be genuinely deranged enough to have no conception that what she's doing is wrong in any way.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: Haachama ''seems'' human (albeit one with a serious dissociative disorder), but the fact that she can set up a BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind whenever she pleases and without actually being physically present suggests that may not be the case.
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Supplementary material suggests Haachama is so far gone at this point that she literally cannot tell right from wrong or friend from foe.

!!Protagonists
[[folder:Aloe Mano]]
[[quoteright:275:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/aloocharbg.png]]
[[caption-width-right:275:[[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} Despite everything, it's still you]].]]
[[caption-width-right:275:[[labelnote:Aloe in-game]] https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/aloo.png[[/labelnote]]]]
The heroine of the story, the succubus from Hololive's fifth generation who unfortunately graduated only a month after debuting. After a chance reunion with Nene, the two decide to get her career back on foot, but only then do her genmates understand the complicated chain of events that compelled her to leave in the first place...
----
* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: To avoid an insensitive RippedFromTheHeadlines plot, the cause of Aloe's graduation is changed to a new, entirely unrelated chain of events that also form her backstory in general. [[BackstoryHorror It is NOT an improvement]].
* AdaptationalNationality: Half-Irish. Not that it really matters, though, since Mamoru, who raised her from infancy, was pure Japanese.
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: In terms of the personality she presented in her brief run in ''hololive'', Aloe was a succubus who, while not the most explicit case, [[TheTease lived up to her nature as a succubus]], backed by a cocky and smug aura. In ''[=HoloFunk=]'', she's far more anxious and nervous due to her troubled backstory, with her succubus-like personality trait being nonexistant while her smug demeanor at best shows in her more upbeat moments challenging the other holomems in rapping, [[StepfordSmiler assuming she's not just hiding what she feels]].
* AgeLift: As this is an AlternateContinuity to ''hololive'', Aloe is aged up from fifteen to nineteen years old. Despite her new age, one of her horns has yet to grow to signify her growing up to be a full-fledge succubus, leaving her insecure about her actual age, to the point of claiming to be younger than what's suggested.
* BackstoryHorror: The real-world events that led to the original Aloe's graduation are replaced with a complicated traumatic backstory that involves Daddy Dearest systematically killing or breaking up all of her friends and family. [[spoiler:This isn't even getting into the fact that the only other survivor of his antics, her own brother, has chosen to work for the bastard]].
* BigEater: A voracious appetite and serious sweet tooth are apparently part of her demon physiology (tying into the sin of gluttony), as well as the impossibly-fast metabolism to handle it all.
* ABirthdayNotABreak: Most of what happens to Aloe that ([[AdaptationalBackstoryChange very loosely]]) corresponds to reality happens while she's 19 instead of 15, due to an AgeLift. Turns out something ''else'' happened the day she turned 15 - namely, Daddy Dearest smiting her father Mamoru out of existence.
* BrokenBird: The sheer amount of loss in Aloe's life has left her a SadClown with lingering anxiety issues that only Nene is able to fix by bringing her back to the Holomems.
* CainAndAbel: [[spoiler:Has a twin brother that exists only in this world. It's implied he may have returned to the Dearests to serve his father's killer as one of his depraved elites]].
* ContrastingSequelProtagonist: To Boyfriend (or Kenji, as the mod calls him.) Both are passionate musicians whose paths put them at odds with the Dearests. However, while Kenji scores with Girlfriend (or Hana) and succeeds in making a proper name for himself, even getting Hana away from Daddy Dearest when [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin original canon catches up to them]], no matter how hard Aloe tries, [[DarkAndTroubledPast it all ends in death, destruction, and tears]]. Where Kenji has always averted the odds in his story, Aloe is a BrokenBird cast aside again and again by fate who is only just now finding the resolve to fight again.
* CuriosityKilledTheCast: Aloe trying to probe for Mamoru's whereabouts on her 15th birthday gets him killed shielding her from an explosion when she barges in on a confrontation between him and Daddy Dearest. Judging by the implication that the body count up to that point was all Dearest henchmen, it's likely he could have survived if Aloe stay put.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Was born to the previous Daddy Dearest, who was promptly killed by the one from ''FNF'' for position of the title. Then after a seemingly-normal life under her new father, the Dearests killed ''him'' with a grenade in front of her face. Then Aloe tried to get into entertainment twice, only for the Dearests to successfully leverage her into leaving both times. ''Then'' the Mano Kai wound up in a SuccessionCrisis after her brother left [[spoiler:and pulled a FaceHeelTurn]], causing her to run away for the surface after it was clear that they had no choice but to force the role of chairman on her. Compared to even the Dearests' victims from other mods, the poor kid has it ''rough''.
* DeadPersonImpersonation: Her human credentials and Earth residence were accidentally taken from a suicidal girl named Hibiki Fubunaga, who also happens to be [[IdenticalStranger a little too similar]]. Trying to clean up after the mess and break the news to Hibiki's father bites Aloe in the ass when she gets mistaken for the dead girl, and is far too nice to just admit the truth after that.
* DeceasedParentsAreTheBest: Both her biological and adoptive parents are dead and their absence is what causes everything around them to go straight to hell.
%%* {{Expy}}: Being a young girl with a complicated parentage tied to the yakuza who tries to get away from the business into music, only to run into unexpected hardship brings to mind [[VideoGame/{{Yakuza}} Haruka Sawamura]].
* GlamourFailure: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. While her HumanDisguise as described below is quite good, it isn't quite what you would call ''perfect'', with the true colors of her hair remaining as an off-color sheen that somebody sufficiently observant can easily use to determine something unnatural being at work.
* HumanDisguise: Has the ability to cast a spell that hides her non-human features (her horns, tail and ears) and change her hair color to a more consistent blonde to blend in with human society. She later changes her hair color to black with a purple gradient.
* IdenticalStranger: Learns the hard way that she not only resembles but also sounds like the freshly-dead Hibiki Fubunaga when she tries to break the news to Hibiki's father. [[DeadPersonImpersonation This leads to a rather uncomfortable mix-up, speaking lightly]].
* {{Magitek}}: One of the support spells she knows can break through at least some forms of cybersecurity, first being used to unlock a phone.
* PrimaryColorChampion: Inverted; Aloe's appearance is predominately purple, [[spoiler:while the chief physical trait that gives away the [[FaceHeelTurn truth]] about her brother is a head of yellow hair]].
* SadClown: Week 3's dialogue makes it obvious she's still hurting from her past despite the perpetual smug grin plastered on her animations. Both the more serious parts of the mod and the extended universe suggest she also suffers from chronic anxiety constantly complicated by being on the run for months or even years.
* ShoutOut: The in-universe reason for Aloe having tuned vocals (swallowing a tiny computer as a child) is an almost exact retread of the reason [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinENTITY AGOTI]] originally sounded like a Sega Genesis.
* SweetTooth: Aloe has a pretty massive one, having a borderline obsession with honey in particular. She puts honey on damn near ''everything'' she eats, with the sole exceptions being drinks and pizza (the latter due to considering pizza to be SeriousBusiness due to working at a pizza joint). Funnily enough, she had actually developed this borderline addiction ''before'' first watching ''Anime/DarlingInTheFranxx''.
* TheNeedsOfTheMany: Aloe tries to tough out her hardships alone for fear of dragging her friends and by extension regular civilians into a fight that has for 19 years only concerned her and her family. [[YouAreNotAlone The bulk of Week 3 and Week 4's story is her realizing that with the kind of people Hololive hires, she really doesn't need to worry about that]].
* ThinkingUpPortals: Apparently has access to this, though the only demonstration of this is to remove a corpse, with Aloe remarking even she doesn't know where it went. She also has access to a smaller portal spell that can be used as a sort of telescope.
* YellowPurpleContrast: Is on the heroic side of this trope with [[spoiler:her missing brother]]. Aloe has purplish-pink hair and is on the side of good, with her actions flaunting the UrbanFantasy setting to the reader as she refers to her demonic traits and demonstrates the ability to use support magic. [[spoiler:Her brother, on the other hand, has yellow hair, [[EtTuBrute betrayed his family for their killers]], and is implicated in a group that prefers to use more realistic forms of intimidation and violence despite also being demons]].

[[folder:Nene Momosuzu]]
[[quoteright:275:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/neenportrait.png]]
[[caption-width-right:275:Not to be confused with Pico's friend of the same first name.]]
[[caption-width-right:275:[[labelnote:Nene in-game on the speakers]] https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/suzumomoingamespeaker.png[[/labelnote]]]]
[[caption-width-right:275:[[labelnote:Nene as a playable character]] https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/suzumomoingameplayer.png[[/labelnote]]]]
The airheaded visitor from another world, Nene's close friendship with Aloe is instrumental in getting her back into music.
----
* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: In this world, Nene left her home planet for Earth much earlier than in canon, but got stuck in the underworld in the process. Aloe isn't just her genmate, but a close friend from high school.
* AdaptationalNameChange: "Momosuzu Nene" is a new identity. Her real name is Lin Taoling.
* ADogNamedDog: Her real last name, "Taoling," would be an accurate demonym for someone from her home planet of [=TaoTao=].
* BewareTheSillyOnes: Childish and impulsive, but managed to found a successful gang in high school.
* FearlessFool: Not particularly wise, but is big on UndyingLoyalty and persistence. Ironically, despite replacing Girlfriend in gameplay, she's much closer to ''Boyfriend'' in this regard.
* TheHeart: Instrumental in getting Aloe out of her BrokenBird state and proving that AFriendInNeed is very much a good thing to have even in insurmountable odds and invisible wars by convincing the duo's other genmates to support them in Week 4.
* KleptomaniacHero: {{Downplayed|Trope}}, but she still ends up taking a heart pendant from the Dearest Clan to gift to Aloe, resulting in Daddy Dearest calling a hitman on Aloe. Supplementary material suggests this is actually played straight, with her taking random items she finds if they looked cute to her.

[[folder:Fubuki Shirakami]]
[[quoteright:275:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/foobcharbg.png]]

[[caption-width-right:275:[[labelnote:Fubuki in-game]] https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/foob.png[[/labelnote]]]]
A new recruit in the Oozora Police who somehow convinced Subaru and company to let her start her own branch in detective work. Not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer, most of Fubuki's campaign consists of her fumbling around in Aloe's steps, unaware she's answering to Daddy Dearest.
----
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Fubuki's route is intentionally written in such a way that it avoids any connection to the game's original story aside from the Dearests' necklace, and Fubuki herself is no closer to uncovering the truth of her case at the end of the story than she was at the beginning. The only hint something is truly amiss in the world of ''hololive'' is Coco telling Fubuki that her target might not be so bad after all.

Fubuki's old friend, the Oozora Police have put Mio on Fubuki's case to keep the ditzy fox in check. And by "keeping her in check," we mean "carrying her efforts ''hard''."
----
* BeleagueredAssistant: Isn't paid and works beneath her not-so-intelligent childhood friend. She tries not to admit it, but the work experience is, to put it lightly, frustrating.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Fubuki and Mio are ChildhoodFriends, yet Mio sounds legitimately exhausted just working with her during the first three weeks.

!!Supporting Cast
[[folder:Gawr Gura]]
The 9000-something-year-old Atlantean who, in this continuity, is capable of far more than she lets on, as revealed by reading between the lines of ''The Dragon's Pizzeria''.
----
* BenevolentBoss: Gura is the CEO of Pizza Shark who devised a plan with Coco to use the influence of ''hololive'' to find four people on the brink of ruin and save them from total destitution.
* ConnectedAllAlong: In the mod, Watson and Gura seem fairly unconnected with the overall plot. ''The Dragon's Pizzeria'' all but states Gura is Coco's partner in founding the pizza franchise, which she serves as the CEO of[[note]]The franchise is named Pizza Shark, Gura's favourite food is pizza, Darnell refers to her as a "little shark", her name, while censored, is shown to consist of a four-letter first name and a four-letter last name, and the pizza served is said to be "Atlantis-style"[[/note]].
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Gura's still just as loopy as ever, and the original's only company leadership role is more a joke about [[{{Netorare}} completely upending Aqua's relationship with Shion so that Gura can step in]]. So who'd expect it to be heavily implied that this version of her surpasses Kiara by being a serious restaurant CEO who cares about her workers?
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: By hiring Kenji and Aloe, Gura is technically responsible for both vanilla ''FNF'' and the 5.0 in-game story ever happening to begin with.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Botan Shishiro]]
An ex-mercenary formerly nicknamed "Leone" in this world, Botan became a hololive talent to leave her old life as an assassin behind. But then it turns out a certain mob's kingpin still has her number back when she was a hitman...
----
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Coco Kiryu]]
The chairman of the Kiryu Clan -- for real, this time.\\\
Aloe directly confronts her to make a deal regarding Botan's situation with the Dearests following the events of Week 3.
----
* AdaptationalVillainy: Zig-zagged. Coco is an actual drug trafficker and puts Kanata in charge of a front company in this world, but her devotion to Hololive and justice is genuine.
* AscendedFanboy: This version of Coco got to learn the ropes of yakuza operations by working with her hero, the [[VideoGame/{{Yakuza}} Dragon of Dojima himself]]. The story also alters the ending of ''VideoGame/Yakuza6'' slightly to pass the role of Kiryu Clan chairman to Coco, leading to the rise of the powerful operation it is now.
* {{Expy}}: Takes on aspects of Kiryu ''[[VideoGame/{{Yakuza}} Kazuma]]'', a character the real Coco is a huge fan of. It's implied to be justified by Kazuma himself existing in this world and teaching Coco a few tricks. ''The Dragon's Pizzeria'' later confirms that not only is this true, ''[[AscendedFanboy they are an actual teacher and student]].''
* AFriendInNeed:
** To Tokoyami Towa. She has her clan rid the Underworld district of Towa's missing posters made by Daddy Dearest to prevent him from knowing where his second daughter is.
** ''The Dragon's Pizzeria'' reveals Aloe's working situation at Pizza Shark was also secretly the result of Coco pulling strings, making Kiryu Kazuma the manager so that she and her coworkers would have a safer place to be at. It is also implied she chose Kazuma because she knew his money was running out.
* HunterOfHisOwnKind: The yakuza mobsters under her care are foreigners willing to rally to thwart the Dearests, who themselves are foreigners pressuring Japan's entertainment industry.
[[/folder]]
!!Spoiler Characters
[[folder:Haato Akai/Haachama]]
The once-pure idol of Hololive's first generation, now the insane WildCard Haachama who will do anything for kicks and work for anyone.\\\
Well, at least it seems that simple, but maybe not...
----
* AdaptationalDumbass: Haachama's insanity and dissociation is played up to a much more harmful degree in this universe, to the point where it makes her an active threat to her own friends and has erased much of her sense of morality.
* AdaptationalVillainy: The original Haachama, while no doubt crazy, generally limited her murderous tendencies and psychological horror towards her TwoSiblingsInOne twin sister Akai Haato, and her cooking was at best [[CordonBleughChef incompetent and disgusting]] and at worst featured the use of a long dead, dehydrated and packaged tarantula. Here, she has no qualms with serving the BigBad, subjecting Aloe/Fubuki to a nightmarish dream sequence, and include [[ImAHumanitarian humans and humanoids as ingredients for her dishes]]. That being said, it's less out of malice and more the fact that various context clues suggest ''[[BlueAndOrangeMorality she literally does not know any better anymore]].''
* AffablyEvil: She remains as excited and chipper as ever, even as she attempts to turn her fellow talents into dishes. It's this trope and not [[FauxAffablyEvil its counterpart]] because she seems to be genuinely deranged enough to have no conception that what she's doing is wrong in any way.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: Haachama ''seems'' human (albeit one with a serious dissociative disorder), but the fact that she can set up a BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind whenever she pleases and without actually being physically present suggests that may not be the case.
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Supplementary material suggests Haachama is so far gone at this point that she literally cannot tell right from wrong or friend from foe. Her cooperation with Daddy Dearest [[HorrifyingTheHorror unnerves him]] and is done without Haachama ever recognizing him or the other talents as they really are.
* {{Flanderization}}: While her [[LethalChef disastrous cooking skills]] do constitute a major part of her comedic appeal, and while [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z57K0VA9ZE she has alluded to eating humans and other sentient beings before]], the mod reduces Haachama's personality and motivations solely to eating people. [[TropesAreTools This seems to be on purpose]] to make her a closer match for the likewise man-eating Monster, whom she replaces in this mod.
* FryingPanOfDoom: Holds one in her right hand as a reminder of her intentions for the main characters.
* ImAHumanitarian: Eats humans and humanoids rather than being a mundane LethalChef in this universe.
* MilesGloriosus: Downplayed; while Haachama is absolutely a threat, it's been stated in external material that she has never actually succeeded in her plot to use HumanResources despite all her boasting.
* OffscreenTeleportation: Whereas most of the characters portraits move into frame upon arriving on the scene, in Week 5 Haachama's ''fades into view'' to highlight her "off" nature. Though, in this specific case, it could be {{Justified|Trope}}; Ina affirms that Haachama never appeared and that Aloe merely conked out, implying the encounter and following sequence is AllJustADream ...from their perspective anyway.
* SanitySlippage: She's long gone past this trope, being the emotionally distant Haachama rather than the Haato everyone knew beforehand.
* UnsportsmanlikeGloating: Will talk after the player loses one of her songs, sometimes to taunt them in this fashion.
-->'''Haachama:''' Ha ha! What a degenerate!
* WildCard: Her declining psyche has given her less qualms about who she'll work for and what she'll do for fun; case-in-point, she's encountered as the BigBad's personal chef and is willing to butcher her kouhais for the sake of a meal.

!!Others
[[folder:Kanata Amane]]
[[RelatedInTheAdaptation Kenji's cousin]], owner of a paradoxically strong grip, and fifth chairman of the Kiryu Clan.
----
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: First cousin to Kenji, i.e. Boyfriend. Despite the degree of separation, [[UncannyFamilyResemblance he looks and dresses a lot like her]].
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Towa Tokoyami/Kaede Kurayami]]
A devil girl [[RunningGag who insists that she isn't an angel]]. She's actually Daddy Dearest's second daughter and thus Girlfriend's sister, carrying some of their eccentricities.
----
* AdaptationalNameChange: "Tokoyami Towa" is just an alias, unlike some of the other talents as depicted in this universe. Her real name is Kaede Kurayami.
* BornOfHeavenAndHell: Though her family ''really'' doesn't like to admit it or what led to her turning out that way (herself included), Towa is part angel. The only things stopping her from being a full-on {{Nephilim}} like [=IRyS=] are her height and "canon" demonstrating she lacks a destructive impulse.
* TheCameo: Her only appearance in ''[=HoloFunk=]'' version 5.0 is this: in the Week 2 Kurayami family portrait alongside Hana and their parents, and is one face among many in Week 5 watching the Takamori rap battle.
* CerebusRetcon: This time around, she acts like she's part angel because she ''is'', with Daddy Dearest being a FallenAngel in serious denial about his lineage.
* HiddenEyes: Her eyes are completely obscured, with the only hint of emotion present being a stoic frown.
* InTheBlood: Got her repeated denial of her angelic lineage from her father, which [[CerebusRetcon is most definitely NOT a laughing matter for him]].
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Being TheRunaway, she isn't fully aware of the Dearests' actions in the present day, even as she works alongside an actual yakuza boss mobilizing against them. [[FailedASpotCheck Somehow]], neither is her dad aware of where she works now.
* MissingChild: A variant to Daddy Dearest, as she left the family to pursue the entertainment industry without him knowing. Her disappearance eventually leads her father to put up missing posters of her in and around Makaicho. Lucky for her, [[AFriendInNeed the Kiryu Clan]] tears the posters down to prevent the wrong eyes from connecting the dots and compromising her whereabouts.
* MyHairCameOutGreen: Zig-Zagged. Whereas her purple hair in canon is likely nothing more than standard anime-style multicoloured hair, supplementary material for this canon reveals her hair was originally black like Daddy Dearest's hair (pre-greying). After having settled for a bleached blonde prior to when she left the family, a botched attempt to make it Miku-esque blue resulted in her signature hair that she ultimately stuck to.
* TheNapoleon: Preliminary sketches of her appearance in this universe depict her as ''even shorter'' than Kenji and Hana's SuperDeformed statures, despite a height difference of only 19 cm at worst. In spite of this, she's independent and obviously has something Daddy Dearest doesn't: a functioning, high-profile standing in the entertainment industry ''not'' inked in blood.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: The Dearests' family photo implies she's Hana/Girlfriend's sister and Daddy Dearest's second daughter, something later confirmed by the dev team.
* TheRunaway: Left the Dearests long ago to pursue entertainment, eventually becoming a successful version of Aloe while somehow escaping her father's watch. Hana knows this, but [[BigBrotherInstinct won't tell the truth, knowing what might happen next if she does]].

[[folder:Boyfriend/Kenji Tensei]]
As it turns out, the person most would probably know as "Boyfriend" does not exist in this world; rather, he is the product of an old UsefulNotes/{{Playstation}} game that used the Dearests for the likenesses of his opponents. Predictably, the game's developers were chased out of the industry by the real deals.
Since Boyfriend isn't real, his role is filled by local AscendedFanboy Kenji who is everything he is and isn't at the same time: a blue-haired introverted college dropout dating the Dearests' daughter and looking to climb the ladder in the music world, but also a young man who's street-smart, intelligible, and emphatically ''not'' a human. Oh, and [[RelatedInTheAdaptation he's also Kanata's cousin]].
-----
* AscendedFanboy: A huge fan of the original Boyfriend who ends up falling into the exact same backstory and position as him, and dresses the part out of both emulation and spite towards Daddy Dearest. More directly, he's also a huge fan of Aloe and not only becomes her coworker, but inadvertently helps her, together with Narumi and Kiryu, stay motivated long enough to get to 5.0's in-game story... [[CutShort not that he'd ever find out, unfortunately]].
* AmbiguousDisorder: While officially marked as neurodivergent, it's never explicitly stated just ''what'' it is Kenji has. The main hints towards a proper guess are Kenji mentioning he has trouble filtering out background noise, and his noted lack of articulation when expressing himself. If he truly is ''the'' Boyfriend, though, it's likely a mix of ADHD and autism based on developer commentary for the original.
* TheCameo: Appears alongside Hana in Week 5 amongst the crowd watching the Takamori rap battle.
* CanonForeigner: Subverted. At first, his implementation made it look like he was the only member of the original cast who's been replaced by a different person, but it turns out he seems to have lived through more events corresponding to the real ''FNF'' than the Boyfriend of his world's version of the game, [[CanonCharacterAllAlong effectively making him the same character]] put through a handful of AdaptationTropes.
* DemotedToExtra: There was originally no option to play as him, so he's was pretty much this. [[{{Retcon}} Lore-wise]], he's reduced to merely playable without his original name.
* DivergentCharacterEvolution: Was originally intended to be Boyfriend himself subject to the common headcanon that he's secretly an angel, but after the story was rewritten to make him ([[CanonCharacterAllAlong somewhat of]]) a different person, he began taking on traits that put him above Boyfriend's original personality in terms of competency.
* GainingTheWillToKill: His breakup with Pico was more accurately Kenji damn-near murdering him over Pico trying to do the same [[NeverMyFault just because he finally called him out on his bullshit]]. The problem is that Kenji's an angel who has never really stooped that low before, so there's more fear and dread than usual that [[HeWhoFightsMonsters this could send him off the deep end]].
* GlamourFailure: Kenji does have a HumanDisguise, but all it really does is hide his UncannyFamilyResemblance to Kanata and gets rid of the bling that runs in their family. His full head of silver and blue dual-tone hair doesn't change with it at all. Likely justified since Boyfriend's hair is also blue, so if he's going to cosplay (and ultimately [[CanonCharacterAllAlong become]]) the rapper, it doesn't really matter.
* HasAType: He has a thing for redheads.
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: Though not past the line, the risk of this and the subsequent [[FallenAngel social and physiological punishment]] for doing so is why GainingTheWillToKill is such an undesirable path for Kenji to take even when it's needed, unlike other mods where Boyfriend has zero qualms doing so if the end justifies the means.
* InTheBlood: Just as unusually strong and ferocious as Kanata is when push comes to shove.
* {{Irony}}: He's an angel who becomes insatiably lustful on the clock at the sight of Hana, and thoroughly weirds out the [[HornyDevils succubus]] Aloe by doing so.
* LegacyCharacter: Blurs the line between merely adopting the original Boyfriend's mantle and actually being Boyfriend himself with how similar the two are on both backstory and appearance alone. To other characters in-universe, he's definitely the former and thus a proper example of the trope, though. Out-of-universe, he's pretty much ''the'' Boyfriend and no ShowWithinAShow is going to change that.
* LoveAtFirstSight: He lays his eyes on Hana ''once'' and immediately becomes hopelessly in love with her.
* MeaningfulName: "Tensei" is Japanese for "heavenly star," which fits in nicely with his origins, aspirations, and role as Boyfriend's stand-in.
* {{Nepotism}}: Downplayed; it's implied he has his restaurant job because of Kanata pulling some strings for her cousin, but Kenji was rather down in the dumps before becoming Boyfriend either way, and all bets were off the moment the recruiting initiative pulled from recommendations from within Hololive.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Delivers a truly cathartic one to Pico once he has had ''enough'' of the kid's [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse completely indefensible]] LackOfEmpathy and accountability, which at the ''bare minimum'' ends with Pico dislocating both of his shoulders, getting a solid head injury, and having his face caved in over and over again.
* OriginStory: ''The Dragon's Pizzeria'' turns out to also be the story of how Kenji becomes this world's Boyfriend.
* PromotedToPlayable: After he (or, well, the usual Boyfriend) got ditched from the status of protagonist for the streamer-safe version of the game in favor of Fubuki, Kenji finally makes his playable appearance as an unlockable character for freeplay mode in update 6.0.0. He even comes packaged with Hana, chillin' on the speakers as Girlfriend does.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Kanata's first cousin, which mirrors how the original Boyfriend is Music/HatsuneMiku's brother.
* TheUnintelligible: Subverted; unlike Boyfriend, Kenji is entirely willing to speak plain language to strangers.
* UncannyFamilyResemblance: His outfit and hair makes him look an awful lot like a genderbent version of his cousin Kanata.
* WrongGenreSavvy: His pre-Boyfriend self was convinced he was living in a SliceOfLife anime, and as a result unironically thought invoking the "toast-in-mouth" stock scene would be a surefire way to get girls. Hana ''does'' show up that day, but not because of Kenji's antics.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Girlfriend/Hana Kurayami]]
The Dearests' first daughter, who is in many ways just like the original, if a little smarter.
----
* AdaptationalHeroism: Downplayed; while Girlfriend was by no means evil in vanilla or [[VideoGame/VSWhitty the]] [[VideoGame/VsTabiExBoyfriend three]] [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinENTITY mods]] that provide Hana's old bandmates, she did show a degree of complacency at the bare minimum in letting it happen. Here, if Hana's behavior around Towa is any indication, while she wasn't able to stop Whitty, Tabi, and AGOTI from being doomed to their canon backstories, she at least has enough of a spine to hide Towa and later run away herself before Daddy Dearest can hurt anyone else around them. As for Kenji, [[ForegoneConclusion she doesn't need to worry about him]].
* BigBrotherInstinct: She cares about Towa's true passions and emphatically refuses to tell Daddy Dearest the truth about where she went.
* CanonWelding: [[VideoGame/VsTabiExBoyfriend Tabi]] and [[VideoGame/VsCarol Carol]] are still around and are implied to have once again experienced the best and worst parts of their own mods because of Hana.
* CerebusRetcon: It's implied she takes the events of Week 7 from the original game much more seriously than in canon, as it's because of the Tankmen that she decides to move out and live next to Kenji's Earth residence.
* CharClone: Hana retains Girlfriend's red ColorMotifs, has undisclosed family relations to a Holomem, is the star of her own show under an alias, has CoolShades that obscure her identity relative to public photos, and left her family to be with Kenji, checking off the vast majority of the criteria for this trope.
* CoolShades: Sports a pair that showcase her red-highlighted eyes. Supplementary depictions of the missing posters for her and Towa/Kaede suggest they serve as a mask for her identity.
* ForWantOfANail: Hana's only change in this universe compared to the original Girlfriend is being smarter. However, this means that being held up by a bunch of Tankmen in a military zone stings much more than in vanilla, causing Hana to leave her family.
* InSpiteOfANail: The only member of the original cast who has no changes to their backstory or species themselves, despite her parents being involved in a bunch of original story events. The only major change Hana has compared to Girlfriend is being smarter than the latter to bring her in line with Kenji's own intelligence.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Towa's sister in this world.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Daddy Dearest/Mr. Kurayami]]
The BigBad and source of all of Aloe's troubles, this world's Daddy Dearest is a mob boss who hijacked TheIrishMob's operations in Japan and uses their muscle to place a stranglehold on the nation's entertainment industry.
-----
* AdaptationalVillainy: Unique to this version of Daddy Dearest compared to other mods is his unrelenting persistence in hounding targets that aren't Boyfriend, repeatedly hatching more evil plans to deal with them if the ones before them fail. Even [[VideoGame/VsTabiExBoyfriend Tabi]] and [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinENTITY A.G.O.T.I.]] get off easy in comparison by dint of their punishments being the ''only'' things the Dearests did to them; meanwhile for Aloe, it was the ''last'' thing in a string of repeated hits that ''finally'' take away everything she loves.
* BeingEvilSucks: Daddy Dearest has everything some of his other counterparts would want - fame, wealth, dead or miserable competitors - but lacks something they do: a stable connection with his children, who want nothing to do with him because of his wrongdoings. [[EvilCannotComprehendGood Not that he'd understand, though]].
* BigBad: He's the original Daddy Dearest; it wouldn't be a ''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin'' story featuring him without also being the central antagonist.
* CanonWelding: He and the other Dearests are associated with at least one of the [[VideoGame/{{Pico}} goth kids]].
* {{Deconstruction}}: Downplayed, but it's there. His [[CardCarryingVillain comically heinous]] behavior universal to just about every single mod carries severe interpersonal consequences for him in this universe, as both of his kids no longer associate with him in a serious capacity due to his antics: Towa simply wanted to strike out on her own and had to run away from a person who likes inking those kinds of deals in blood, and supplementary notes imply Week 7 from the base game [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome blew up in Daddy Dearest's face way more than in canon]], costing him Hana's relationship.
* EnemyMine: Not above using the police to take down his targets if their goals align. Just ask Tsume.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: For someone who's portrayed as a complete bastard in just about any universe, he's decently pissed that Haachama is using her position as his personal chef to stalk off for HumanResources.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: It's been suggested he legitimately does not understand why Hana and Kaede/Towa left him, despite his never-ending list of transgressions that hit way too close to home.
* EvilIsPetty: The core of his operations revolves around manipulating Japan's entertainment industry not for a greater criminal cause (at least not one that any of our heroes know of), but rather pure unadulterated ego.
* FallenAngel: Is really just this rather than an actual demon, but goes to great pains to hide it. [[CerebusRetcon It also explains why]] Towa is a MinionWithAnFInEvil.
* {{Hypocrite}}: If he doesn't want to admit he's a FallenAngel, then ''why does he keep [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail Holy Hand Grenades]] for the express purpose of killing demons?''
* LastNameBasis: Can only really be referred to by his last name when discussing him without mentioning the title, as his first name is a tightly-kept secret both in- and out-of-universe. [[spoiler:And for good reason, because who the hell would take [[TomTheDarkLord a dangerous demon/fallen angel mob boss by the name of Kouta]] seriously?]]
* LegacyCharacter: "Daddy Dearest" is just a title in this world, which Mr. Kurayami took for himself after slaying the previous holder. He's still the original demonic arse from ''FNF'', though, just as a Japanese man.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Is somehow unaware that Towa works for Hololive, even accounting for her breaking away from the mob life and Hana's refusal to tell the truth.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: "Kurayami" is one of the most common Japanese words for "[[DarkIsEvil darkness]]."
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Implied and later confirmed through a family portrait to be Towa's father.
* TomTheDarkLord: [[spoiler:His real first name is "Kouta," a name more closely associated with heroic types in popular culture, and one of his stage names was "Krazy Kou."]]
* VillainTeamUp: Works with [[VideoGame/{{Pico}} Cyclops]], as shown in a cutscene showing him, Daddy Dearest, the henchmen, and an unidentified character (possibly [[spoiler:Aloe's in-universe twin brother, given the horns and pink streaks of hair]]) together.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Pico Phillips]]
Kenji's ex, and the kid who [[VideoGame/{{Pico}} single-handedly shut down a school shooting]]. Surprisingly, aside from being a FallenAngel this time around and being taught by Botan, little has changed about him in this world.
-----
* AdaptationalJerkass: Kenji's remarks in ''The Dragon's Pizzeria'' indicate that even accounting for his mental issues, this version of Pico isn't meant to be a likable character compared to canon. He is described as willingly refusing help despite being lucid enough to know he has problems, and the reason Kenji broke up with him is implied to involve Pico saying Aloe [[FantasticRacism deserved leaving the music industry just because she's a succubus]]. In other words, he's what the VirtualYouTuber fandom would call an "anti." As the story progresses, it also becomes clear that Pico legitimately [[BloodKnight enjoys killing]] and now thinks bullets are the best way to solve heated arguments.
* AssholeVictim: It is frequently made abundantly clear that Pico deserves ''everything'' that has happened to him since ''Pico's School'', as [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse no amount of trauma and injustice can excuse just how much of an unrepentant pile of shit he really is]]. Kenji points out that he doesn't even miss Heaven and not being a hitman, he just wants to have a convenient excuse to hurt others and get away with it.
* BoomerangBigot: Despite being racist towards succubi, a type of demon, Pico himself is a FallenAngel (albeit one strucken down on false charges) and is friends with [[{{Pyromaniac}} Darnell]], who is a ''very'' good example of why fallen angels are themselves considered demonic.
* TheCameo: Aside from Botan alluding to him as "an old collegue," his sole appearance in ''[=HoloFunk=]'' 5.0, aside being among the Week 5 crowd, is on a wanted poster in the background of Week 3, just like his canon ''FNF'' counterpart.
* CanonWelding: As Cyclops is an associate of the Dearests in this universe, the events of ''Pico's School'' remaining as-is and the [[FallenAngel consequences]] that befell him due to the failings of Heaven's justice system would make him a victim of Daddy Dearest by proxy.
* ClearMyName: Started taking contracts to kill demons for this. Then it quickly turned into [[BloodKnight something]] [[HeWhoFightsMonsters else]].
* CompositeCharacter: A mix of his vanilla self and the downfall his counterpart from ''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinSoft'' experiences. Moreover, the goth kids have some ties to the Dearests like in ''VideoGame/VSCassandra'' which make them an active threat even after their initial defeat, though here it's on the business side of things rather than familial ties.
* CynicismCatalyst: Most of his issues in this world now stem from Heaven's justice system turning against him despite saving his own school from the goth kids.
* DiggingYourselfDeeper: Doesn't want treatment, rehabilitation, or any other sort of aid for his mental issues. Though a part of it is said issues clouding his judgement, Kenji implies the ego of his original personality is also heavily contributing to this, meaning Pico is just tarnishing his already-shattered reputation through recklessness.
* FallenAngel: Got kicked out of Heaven due to a FrameUp implicating him with the goth kids. This understandably served as his CynicismCatalyst for this world, though a point is made that none of the above is what made Kenji dump him. [[FallenHero And if he didn't do anything wrong then, his decisions now ensure no one will ever want him back]].
* FallenHero: A classic Website/{{Newgrounds}} hero turned to genuine sociopathy and bloodlust after injustice sets him down the wrong path.
* FantasticRacism: Kenji describes him as having zero sympathy for Aloe just because she's a succubus, and that's why they aren't a couple anymore.
* FrameUp: Was framed for Cassandra's actions, which led to his fall.
* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: Yes, Pico was framed. Yes, he has severe PTSD from ''Pico's School.'' Yes, his family life sucks. No, that doesn't excuse the fact that he legitimately enjoys killing, that he's a humongous racist, that he may have forced his Nene and Darnell to kill with him, and that he wants Kenji to repay his attempts to help him in blood. The latter in particular leads Kenji to cash in Pico's KarmaHoudiniWarranty and beat the ''everloving shit'' out of him.
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: Slays demons through his mercenary job in hopes of validation, but given that this is the modern era, it's heavily rooted in FantasticRacism, his own insanity, paranoia, and just not being a very pleasant individual overall.
* InSpiteOfANail: Despite his different lineage and having a certain lioness to effectively raise him in his childhood, he otherwise remains mostly the same compared to vanilla in the present day. Quite humorously, though, ''Boyfriend's'' ex isn't him or an {{Expy}}.
* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: As TheExile for a school shooting he never committed, only stopped, the shell-shock and sudden disenfranchisement caused Pico to embrace evil. He acts as though he's in regular denial or that it's all just desperation, but is nearly killed the instant Kenji realizes it's all a farce.
* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: Started killing for fun and profit, calling it a desperate FallenOnHardTimesJob even though it clearly isn't. Kenji repeatedly tries to fix him, but he just keeps going back and getting away with it. Finally, Pico decides to dispose of him and gets a solid ass-whooping.
* LaserGuidedKarma: Tries to kill Kenji for rightfully pointing out that [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse the only thing underneath his trauma is a bloodthirsty failure of a person who doesn't deserve an excuse]]. It doesn't work, because the next thing Kenji does is dislocate both of Pico's shoulders ''before'' absolutely ''pulverizing'' him.
* MythologyGag: [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinSoft This isn't the first time an alternate version of Pico became an outcast for trying to stop a school shooting]].
* TheSociopath: Pico is a BloodKnight whose only real emotions that aren't the joy of killing consist of childish tantrums every time someone figures out he's actually just a sad, racist asshole with a gun and [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse rationale invalidated by his own ego]], and manipulated Darnell and his Nene into becoming mercenaries as well.
* WrongGenreSavvy: His current mindset is akin to that of a protagonist from a {{Shonen}} themed around monster-hunting with BlackAndWhiteMorality, along with some hints of the classic ClearMyName adventure. Unfortunately, this is an UrbanFantasy where all the races have learnt to get along, so instead of being brooding and cool, he's just batshit insane and more than a little bit of a {{Jerkass}}.

Former leader of the Mano Kai, who was initially a captive Daddy Dearest decided to use to take out the guy before him. [[HitmanWithAHeart Then he noticed two kids his mark left behind]], and the rest [[HappilyAdopted was history]]... [[PlotTriggeringDeath at least until the Dearests found out]].
-----
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: A hand grenade's bad enough of a way to go, but said grenade is explicitly a HolyHandGrenade, meaning the poor guy was pretty much wiped out of existence in a rather painful fashion. In Mr. Kurayami's defense, he was out of bullets and didn't have a better option.
* GoodParents: Despite being a crime boss, he truly, ''truly'' loved Aloe and her brother.
* HeroicSacrifice: Died shielding Aloe from an explosion of holy light.

A mysterious figure lines Daddy Dearest's rogues gallery along with the original four backup dancers and [[VideoGame/{{Pico}} Cyclops]]. What little physical traits are visible through the hood, though, are direct opposites of the corresponding traits in Aloe's appearance. [[CainAndAbel Now what was that supplementary bit about Aloe having a brother who later went missing after all the crap the Dearests sicced on them, again?]]
-----
* CanonForeigner: As with the rest of Aloe's family, his existence is made up for the mod's lore.
* ColdSniper: His current situation is amoral (or at least ''seriously'' uncaring for Aloe and the Mano Kai in the short term) at best, and viewing his only appearance without the dialogue box reveals he is armed with a large sniper rifle.
* EtTuBrute: The Mano Kai officially have him listed as MIA and have had their operations crippled because of his disappearance - he was supposed to become chairman after his father died, and Aloe isn't taking up the offer as plan B any time soon. What they don't know is that, whether willingly or by force, he's betrayed them all to join the group responsible for their nigh-extermination.
* EvilTwin: Aloe's literal fraternal twin who is both physically and morally her opposite.
* FaceHeelTurn: For whatever reason, he's decided working for the guy that killed his entire family to be a viable option. Whether he's been blackmailed, is plotting something else, or is just that much of a sellout is yet to be revealed.
* TheFaceless: His only in-game appearance doesn't show his actual face, because his hair color and demonic features are already more than enough for an astute viewer to put two and two together. It's possible the demon in [[https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/830693017434193920/866511599267610644/HoloFunk_Aggie_Night_7_18.png?width=1340&height=754 this art collaboration]] is his full appearance, as he shares the [[RedRightHand symmetrical horns]] and appears next to the 5.0 lore's depictions of Cyclops and Cassandra.
* HiddenInPlainSight: Of course the Mano Kai haven't been able to find him despite marks of his identity blatantly showing even through a cloak and total darkness. After all, why on Earth would you expect your immediate successor to peel off for the guy who murdered his own father?
* InTheHood: Only seen with a huge cloak that obscures his face, but shows just enough of his physical attributes to come to a particularly grim conclusion.
* RedRightHand: Inverted; Aloe is the hero with a physical imperfection ([[FashionableAsymmetry asymmetrical horns]]) while her brother is the hidden villain with a standard appearance.
* SiblingYinYang: Aloe is a succubus with pink and cream yellow hair, asymmetrical horns, and is fighting back the Dearests with her friends. Her brother is an incubus with cream hair with a hint of pink, symmetrical horns, and works for the mob despite them being the reason his family's life has been a hellhole for nearly two decades.
* WalkingSpoiler: As his existence is currently only mentioned in supplementary material, it's impossible to mention where he appears in-game without also spoiling an established setup for future weeks.

[[caption-width-right:275:[[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} Despite everything, it's still you]].]]
[[caption-width-right:275:[[labelnote:Aloe in-game]] https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/aloo.png[[/labelnote]]]]
The heroine of the story, the succubus from Hololive's fifth generation who unfortunately graduated only a month after debuting. After a chance reunion with Nene, the two decide to get her career back on foot, but only then do her genmates understand the complicated chain of events that compelled her to leave in the first place...
----
* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: To avoid an insensitive RippedFromTheHeadlines plot, the cause of Aloe's graduation is changed to a new, entirely unrelated chain of events that also form her backstory in general. [[BackstoryHorror It is NOT an improvement]].
* AdaptationalNationality: Half-Irish. Not that it really matters, though, since Mamoru, who raised her from infancy, was pure Japanese.
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: In terms of the personality she presented in her brief run in ''hololive'', Aloe was a succubus who, while not the most explicit case, [[TheTease lived up to her nature as a succubus]], backed by a cocky and smug aura. In ''[=HoloFunk=]'', she's far more anxious and nervous due to her troubled backstory, with her succubus-like personality trait being nonexistant while her smug demeanor at best shows in her more upbeat moments challenging the other holomems in rapping, [[StepfordSmiler assuming she's not just hiding what she feels]].
* AgeLift: As this is an AlternateContinuity to ''hololive'', Aloe is aged up from fifteen to nineteen years old. Despite her new age, one of her horns has yet to grow to signify her growing up to be a full-fledge succubus, leaving her insecure about her actual age, to the point of claiming to be younger than what's suggested.
* BackstoryHorror: The real-world events that led to the original Aloe's graduation are replaced with a complicated traumatic backstory that involves Daddy Dearest systematically killing or breaking up all of her friends and family. [[spoiler:This isn't even getting into the fact that the only other survivor of his antics, her own brother, has chosen to work for the bastard]].
* BigEater: A voracious appetite and serious sweet tooth are apparently part of her demon physiology (tying into the sin of gluttony), as well as the impossibly-fast metabolism to handle it all.
* ABirthdayNotABreak: Most of what happens to Aloe that ([[AdaptationalBackstoryChange very loosely]]) corresponds to reality happens while she's 19 instead of 15, due to an AgeLift. Turns out something ''else'' happened the day she turned 15 - namely, Daddy Dearest smiting her father Mamoru out of existence.
* BrokenBird: The sheer amount of loss in Aloe's life has left her a SadClown with lingering anxiety issues that only Nene is able to fix by bringing her back to the Holomems.
* CainAndAbel: [[spoiler:Has a twin brother that exists only in this world. It's implied he may have returned to the Dearests to serve his father's killer as one of his depraved elites]].
* ContrastingSequelProtagonist: To Boyfriend (or Kenji, as the mod calls him.) Both are passionate musicians whose paths put them at odds with the Dearests. However, while Kenji scores with Girlfriend (or Hana) and succeeds in making a proper name for himself, even getting Hana away from Daddy Dearest when [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin original canon catches up to them]], no matter how hard Aloe tries, [[DarkAndTroubledPast it all ends in death, destruction, and tears]]. Where Kenji has always averted the odds in his story, Aloe is a BrokenBird cast aside again and again by fate who is only just now finding the resolve to fight again.
* CuriosityKilledTheCast: Aloe trying to probe for Mamoru's whereabouts on her 15th birthday gets him killed shielding her from an explosion when she barges in on a confrontation between him and Daddy Dearest. Judging by the implication that the body count up to that point was all Dearest henchmen, it's likely he could have survived if Aloe stay put.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Was born to the previous Daddy Dearest, who was promptly killed by the one from ''FNF'' for position of the title. Then after a seemingly-normal life under her new father, the Dearests killed ''him'' with a grenade in front of her face. Then Aloe tried to get into entertainment twice, only for the Dearests to successfully leverage her into leaving both times. ''Then'' the Mano Kai wound up in a SuccessionCrisis after her brother left [[spoiler:and pulled a FaceHeelTurn]], causing her to run away for the surface after it was clear that they had no choice but to force the role of chairman on her. Compared to even the Dearests' victims from other mods, the poor kid has it ''rough''.
* DeadPersonImpersonation: Her human credentials and Earth residence were accidentally taken from a suicidal girl named Hibiki Fubunaga, who also happens to be [[IdenticalStranger a little too similar]]. Trying to clean up after the mess and break the news to Hibiki's father bites Aloe in the ass when she gets mistaken for the dead girl, and is far too nice to just admit the truth after that.
* DeceasedParentsAreTheBest: Both her biological and adoptive parents are dead and their absence is what causes everything around them to go straight to hell.
%%* {{Expy}}: Being a young girl with a complicated parentage tied to the yakuza who tries to get away from the business into music, only to run into unexpected hardship brings to mind [[VideoGame/{{Yakuza}} Haruka Sawamura]].
* GlamourFailure: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. While her HumanDisguise as described below is quite good, it isn't quite what you would call ''perfect'', with the true colors of her hair remaining as an off-color sheen that somebody sufficiently observant can easily use to determine something unnatural being at work.
* HumanDisguise: Has the ability to cast a spell that hides her non-human features (her horns, tail and ears) and change her hair color to a more consistent blonde to blend in with human society. She later changes her hair color to black with a purple gradient.
* IdenticalStranger: Learns the hard way that she not only resembles but also sounds like the freshly-dead Hibiki Fubunaga when she tries to break the news to Hibiki's father. [[DeadPersonImpersonation This leads to a rather uncomfortable mix-up, speaking lightly]].
* {{Magitek}}: One of the support spells she knows can break through at least some forms of cybersecurity, first being used to unlock a phone.
* PrimaryColorChampion: Inverted; Aloe's appearance is predominately purple, [[spoiler:while the chief physical trait that gives away the [[FaceHeelTurn truth]] about her brother is a head of yellow hair]].
* SadClown: Week 3's dialogue makes it obvious she's still hurting from her past despite the perpetual smug grin plastered on her animations. Both the more serious parts of the mod and the extended universe suggest she also suffers from chronic anxiety constantly complicated by being on the run for months or even years.
* ShoutOut: The in-universe reason for Aloe having tuned vocals (swallowing a tiny computer as a child) is an almost exact retread of the reason [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinENTITY AGOTI]] originally sounded like a Sega Genesis.
* SweetTooth: Aloe has a pretty massive one, having a borderline obsession with honey in particular. She puts honey on damn near ''everything'' she eats, with the sole exceptions being drinks and pizza (the latter due to considering pizza to be SeriousBusiness due to working at a pizza joint). Funnily enough, she had actually developed this borderline addiction ''before'' first watching ''Anime/DarlingInTheFranxx''.
* TheNeedsOfTheMany: Aloe tries to tough out her hardships alone for fear of dragging her friends and by extension regular civilians into a fight that has for 19 years only concerned her and her family. [[YouAreNotAlone The bulk of Week 3 and Week 4's story is her realizing that with the kind of people Hololive hires, she really doesn't need to worry about that]].
* ThinkingUpPortals: Apparently has access to this, though the only demonstration of this is to remove a corpse, with Aloe remarking even she doesn't know where it went. She also has access to a smaller portal spell that can be used as a sort of telescope.
* YellowPurpleContrast: Is on the heroic side of this trope with [[spoiler:her missing brother]]. Aloe has purplish-pink hair and is on the side of good, with her actions flaunting the UrbanFantasy setting to the reader as she refers to her demonic traits and demonstrates the ability to use support magic. [[spoiler:Her brother, on the other hand, has yellow hair, [[EtTuBrute betrayed his family for their killers]], and is implicated in a group that prefers to use more realistic forms of intimidation and violence despite also being demons]].

[[folder:Nene Momosuzu]]
[[quoteright:275:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/neenportrait.png]]
[[caption-width-right:275:Not to be confused with Pico's friend of the same first name.]]

[[caption-width-right:275:[[labelnote:Nene as a playable character]] https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/suzumomoingameplayer.png[[/labelnote]]]]
The airheaded visitor from another world, Nene's close friendship with Aloe is instrumental in getting her back into music.
----
* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: In this world, Nene left her home planet for Earth much earlier than in canon, but got stuck in the underworld in the process. Aloe isn't just her genmate, but a close friend from high school.
* AdaptationalNameChange: "Momosuzu Nene" is a new identity. Her real name is Lin Taoling.
* ADogNamedDog: Her real last name, "Taoling," would be an accurate demonym for someone from her home planet of [=TaoTao=].
* BewareTheSillyOnes: Childish and impulsive, but managed to found a successful gang in high school.
* FearlessFool: Not particularly wise, but is big on UndyingLoyalty and persistence. Ironically, despite replacing Girlfriend in gameplay, she's much closer to ''Boyfriend'' in this regard.
* TheHeart: Instrumental in getting Aloe out of her BrokenBird state and proving that AFriendInNeed is very much a good thing to have even in insurmountable odds and invisible wars by convincing the duo's other genmates to support them in Week 4.
* KleptomaniacHero: {{Downplayed|Trope}}, but she still ends up taking a heart pendant from the Dearest Clan to gift to Aloe, resulting in Daddy Dearest calling a hitman on Aloe. Supplementary material suggests this is actually played straight, with her taking random items she finds if they looked cute to her.

[[folder:Fubuki Shirakami]]
[[quoteright:275:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/foobcharbg.png]]
[[caption-width-right:275:Not pictured: An emergency hamburger; [[TheDitz detective skill to match the title of chief]].]]
[[caption-width-right:275:[[labelnote:Fubuki in-game]] https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/foob.png[[/labelnote]]]]
A new recruit in the Oozora Police who somehow convinced Subaru and company to let her start her own branch in detective work. Not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer, most of Fubuki's campaign consists of her fumbling around in Aloe's steps, unaware she's answering to Daddy Dearest.
----
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Fubuki's route is intentionally written in such a way that it avoids any connection to the game's original story aside from the Dearests' necklace, and Fubuki herself is no closer to uncovering the truth of her case at the end of the story than she was at the beginning. The only hint something is truly amiss in the world of ''hololive'' is Coco telling Fubuki that her target might not be so bad after all.

Fubuki's old friend, the Oozora Police have put Mio on Fubuki's case to keep the ditzy fox in check. And by "keeping her in check," we mean "carrying her efforts ''hard''."
----
* BeleagueredAssistant: Isn't paid and works beneath her not-so-intelligent childhood friend. She tries not to admit it, but the work experience is, to put it lightly, frustrating.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Fubuki and Mio are ChildhoodFriends, yet Mio sounds legitimately exhausted just working with her during the first three weeks.

!!Supporting Cast
[[folder:Gawr Gura]]
The 9000-something-year-old Atlantean who, in this continuity, is capable of far more than she lets on, as revealed by reading between the lines of ''The Dragon's Pizzeria''.
----
* BenevolentBoss: Gura is the CEO of Pizza Shark who devised a plan with Coco to use the influence of ''hololive'' to find four people on the brink of ruin and save them from total destitution.
* ConnectedAllAlong: In the mod, Watson and Gura seem fairly unconnected with the overall plot. ''The Dragon's Pizzeria'' all but states Gura is Coco's partner in founding the pizza franchise, which she serves as the CEO of[[note]]The franchise is named Pizza Shark, Gura's favourite food is pizza, Darnell refers to her as a "little shark", her name, while censored, is shown to consist of a four-letter first name and a four-letter last name, and the pizza served is said to be "Atlantis-style"[[/note]].
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Gura's still just as loopy as ever, and the original's only company leadership role is more a joke about [[{{Netorare}} completely upending Aqua's relationship with Shion so that Gura can step in]]. So who'd expect it to be heavily implied that this version of her surpasses Kiara by being a serious restaurant CEO who cares about her workers?
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: By hiring Kenji and Aloe, Gura is technically responsible for both vanilla ''FNF'' and the 5.0 in-game story ever happening to begin with.

[[folder:Botan Shishiro]]
An ex-mercenary formerly nicknamed "Leone" in this world, Botan became a hololive talent to leave her old life as an assassin behind. But then it turns out a certain mob's kingpin still has her number back when she was a hitman...
----
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Coco Kiryu]]
The chairman of the Kiryu Clan -- for real, this time.\\\
Aloe directly confronts her to make a deal regarding Botan's situation with the Dearests following the events of Week 3.
----
* AdaptationalVillainy: Zig-zagged. Coco is an actual drug trafficker and puts Kanata in charge of a front company in this world, but her devotion to Hololive and justice is genuine.
* AscendedFanboy: This version of Coco got to learn the ropes of yakuza operations by working with her hero, the [[VideoGame/{{Yakuza}} Dragon of Dojima himself]]. The story also alters the ending of ''VideoGame/Yakuza6'' slightly to pass the role of Kiryu Clan chairman to Coco, leading to the rise of the powerful operation it is now.
* {{Expy}}: Takes on aspects of Kiryu ''[[VideoGame/{{Yakuza}} Kazuma]]'', a character the real Coco is a huge fan of. It's implied to be justified by Kazuma himself existing in this world and teaching Coco a few tricks. ''The Dragon's Pizzeria'' later confirms that not only is this true, ''[[AscendedFanboy they are an actual teacher and student]].''
* AFriendInNeed:
** To Tokoyami Towa. She has her clan rid the Underworld district of Towa's missing posters made by Daddy Dearest to prevent him from knowing where his second daughter is.
** ''The Dragon's Pizzeria'' reveals Aloe's working situation at Pizza Shark was also secretly the result of Coco pulling strings, making Kiryu Kazuma the manager so that she and her coworkers would have a safer place to be at. It is also implied she chose Kazuma because she knew his money was running out.
* HunterOfHisOwnKind: The yakuza mobsters under her care are foreigners willing to rally to thwart the Dearests, who themselves are foreigners pressuring Japan's entertainment industry.

!!Spoiler Characters
[[folder:Haato Akai/Haachama]]
The once-pure idol of Hololive's first generation, now the insane WildCard Haachama who will do anything for kicks and work for anyone.\\\
Well, at least it seems that simple, but maybe not...
----
* AdaptationalDumbass: Haachama's insanity and dissociation is played up to a much more harmful degree in this universe, to the point where it makes her an active threat to her own friends and has erased much of her sense of morality.
* AdaptationalVillainy: The original Haachama, while no doubt crazy, generally limited her murderous tendencies and psychological horror towards her TwoSiblingsInOne twin sister Akai Haato, and her cooking was at best [[CordonBleughChef incompetent and disgusting]] and at worst featured the use of a long dead, dehydrated and packaged tarantula. Here, she has no qualms with serving the BigBad, subjecting Aloe/Fubuki to a nightmarish dream sequence, and include [[ImAHumanitarian humans and humanoids as ingredients for her dishes]]. That being said, it's less out of malice and more the fact that various context clues suggest ''[[BlueAndOrangeMorality she literally does not know any better anymore]].''
* AffablyEvil: She remains as excited and chipper as ever, even as she attempts to turn her fellow talents into dishes. It's this trope and not [[FauxAffablyEvil its counterpart]] because she seems to be genuinely deranged enough to have no conception that what she's doing is wrong in any way.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: Haachama ''seems'' human (albeit one with a serious dissociative disorder), but the fact that she can set up a BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind whenever she pleases and without actually being physically present suggests that may not be the case.
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Supplementary material suggests Haachama is so far gone at this point that she literally cannot tell right from wrong or friend from foe. Her cooperation with Daddy Dearest [[HorrifyingTheHorror unnerves him]] and is done without Haachama ever recognizing him or the other talents as they really are.
* {{Flanderization}}: While her [[LethalChef disastrous cooking skills]] do constitute a major part of her comedic appeal, and while [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z57K0VA9ZE she has alluded to eating humans and other sentient beings before]], the mod reduces Haachama's personality and motivations solely to eating people. [[TropesAreTools This seems to be on purpose]] to make her a closer match for the likewise man-eating Monster, whom she replaces in this mod.
* FryingPanOfDoom: Holds one in her right hand as a reminder of her intentions for the main characters.
* ImAHumanitarian: Eats humans and humanoids rather than being a mundane LethalChef in this universe.
* MilesGloriosus: Downplayed; while Haachama is absolutely a threat, it's been stated in external material that she has never actually succeeded in her plot to use HumanResources despite all her boasting.
* OffscreenTeleportation: Whereas most of the characters portraits move into frame upon arriving on the scene, in Week 5 Haachama's ''fades into view'' to highlight her "off" nature. Though, in this specific case, it could be {{Justified|Trope}}; Ina affirms that Haachama never appeared and that Aloe merely conked out, implying the encounter and following sequence is AllJustADream ...from their perspective anyway.
* SanitySlippage: She's long gone past this trope, being the emotionally distant Haachama rather than the Haato everyone knew beforehand.
* UnsportsmanlikeGloating: Will talk after the player loses one of her songs, sometimes to taunt them in this fashion.
-->'''Haachama:''' Ha ha! What a degenerate!
* WildCard: Her declining psyche has given her less qualms about who she'll work for and what she'll do for fun; case-in-point, she's encountered as the BigBad's personal chef and is willing to butcher her kouhais for the sake of a meal.

!!Others
[[folder:Kanata Amane]]
[[RelatedInTheAdaptation Kenji's cousin]], owner of a paradoxically strong grip, and fifth chairman of the Kiryu Clan.
----
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: First cousin to Kenji, i.e. Boyfriend. Despite the degree of separation, [[UncannyFamilyResemblance he looks and dresses a lot like her]].
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Towa Tokoyami/Kaede Kurayami]]
A devil girl [[RunningGag who insists that she isn't an angel]]. She's actually Daddy Dearest's second daughter and thus Girlfriend's sister, carrying some of their eccentricities.
----
* AdaptationalNameChange: "Tokoyami Towa" is just an alias, unlike some of the other talents as depicted in this universe. Her real name is Kaede Kurayami.
* BornOfHeavenAndHell: Though her family ''really'' doesn't like to admit it or what led to her turning out that way (herself included), Towa is part angel. The only things stopping her from being a full-on {{Nephilim}} like [=IRyS=] are her height and "canon" demonstrating she lacks a destructive impulse.
* TheCameo: Her only appearance in ''[=HoloFunk=]'' version 5.0 is this: in the Week 2 Kurayami family portrait alongside Hana and their parents, and is one face among many in Week 5 watching the Takamori rap battle.
* CerebusRetcon: This time around, she acts like she's part angel because she ''is'', with Daddy Dearest being a FallenAngel in serious denial about his lineage.
* HiddenEyes: Her eyes are completely obscured, with the only hint of emotion present being a stoic frown.
* InTheBlood: Got her repeated denial of her angelic lineage from her father, which [[CerebusRetcon is most definitely NOT a laughing matter for him]].
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Being TheRunaway, she isn't fully aware of the Dearests' actions in the present day, even as she works alongside an actual yakuza boss mobilizing against them. [[FailedASpotCheck Somehow]], neither is her dad aware of where she works now.
* MissingChild: A variant to Daddy Dearest, as she left the family to pursue the entertainment industry without him knowing. Her disappearance eventually leads her father to put up missing posters of her in and around Makaicho. Lucky for her, [[AFriendInNeed the Kiryu Clan]] tears the posters down to prevent the wrong eyes from connecting the dots and compromising her whereabouts.
* MyHairCameOutGreen: Zig-Zagged. Whereas her purple hair in canon is likely nothing more than standard anime-style multicoloured hair, supplementary material for this canon reveals her hair was originally black like Daddy Dearest's hair (pre-greying). After having settled for a bleached blonde prior to when she left the family, a botched attempt to make it Miku-esque blue resulted in her signature hair that she ultimately stuck to.
* TheNapoleon: Preliminary sketches of her appearance in this universe depict her as ''even shorter'' than Kenji and Hana's SuperDeformed statures, despite a height difference of only 19 cm at worst. In spite of this, she's independent and obviously has something Daddy Dearest doesn't: a functioning, high-profile standing in the entertainment industry ''not'' inked in blood.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: The Dearests' family photo implies she's Hana/Girlfriend's sister and Daddy Dearest's second daughter, something later confirmed by the dev team.
* TheRunaway: Left the Dearests long ago to pursue entertainment, eventually becoming a successful version of Aloe while somehow escaping her father's watch. Hana knows this, but [[BigBrotherInstinct won't tell the truth, knowing what might happen next if she does]].

!Non-hololive characters
!!Original ''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin'' cast
[[folder:Boyfriend/Kenji Tensei]]
As it turns out, the person most would probably know as "Boyfriend" does not exist in this world; rather, he is the product of an old UsefulNotes/{{Playstation}} game that used the Dearests for the likenesses of his opponents. Predictably, the game's developers were chased out of the industry by the real deals.
Since Boyfriend isn't real, his role is filled by local AscendedFanboy Kenji who is everything he is and isn't at the same time: a blue-haired introverted college dropout dating the Dearests' daughter and looking to climb the ladder in the music world, but also a young man who's street-smart, intelligible, and emphatically ''not'' a human. Oh, and [[RelatedInTheAdaptation he's also Kanata's cousin]].
-----
* AscendedFanboy: A huge fan of the original Boyfriend who ends up falling into the exact same backstory and position as him, and dresses the part out of both emulation and spite towards Daddy Dearest. More directly, he's also a huge fan of Aloe and not only becomes her coworker, but inadvertently helps her, together with Narumi and Kiryu, stay motivated long enough to get to 5.0's in-game story... [[CutShort not that he'd ever find out, unfortunately]].
* AmbiguousDisorder: While officially marked as neurodivergent, it's never explicitly stated just ''what'' it is Kenji has. The main hints towards a proper guess are Kenji mentioning he has trouble filtering out background noise, and his noted lack of articulation when expressing himself. If he truly is ''the'' Boyfriend, though, it's likely a mix of ADHD and autism based on developer commentary for the original.
* TheCameo: Appears alongside Hana in Week 5 amongst the crowd watching the Takamori rap battle.
* CanonForeigner: Subverted. At first, his implementation made it look like he was the only member of the original cast who's been replaced by a different person, but it turns out he seems to have lived through more events corresponding to the real ''FNF'' than the Boyfriend of his world's version of the game, [[CanonCharacterAllAlong effectively making him the same character]] put through a handful of AdaptationTropes.
* DemotedToExtra: There was originally no option to play as him, so he's was pretty much this. [[{{Retcon}} Lore-wise]], he's reduced to merely playable without his original name.
* DivergentCharacterEvolution: Was originally intended to be Boyfriend himself subject to the common headcanon that he's secretly an angel, but after the story was rewritten to make him ([[CanonCharacterAllAlong somewhat of]]) a different person, he began taking on traits that put him above Boyfriend's original personality in terms of competency.
* GainingTheWillToKill: His breakup with Pico was more accurately Kenji damn-near murdering him over Pico trying to do the same [[NeverMyFault just because he finally called him out on his bullshit]]. The problem is that Kenji's an angel who has never really stooped that low before, so there's more fear and dread than usual that [[HeWhoFightsMonsters this could send him off the deep end]].
* GlamourFailure: Kenji does have a HumanDisguise, but all it really does is hide his UncannyFamilyResemblance to Kanata and gets rid of the bling that runs in their family. His full head of silver and blue dual-tone hair doesn't change with it at all. Likely justified since Boyfriend's hair is also blue, so if he's going to cosplay (and ultimately [[CanonCharacterAllAlong become]]) the rapper, it doesn't really matter.
* HasAType: He has a thing for redheads.
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: Though not past the line, the risk of this and the subsequent [[FallenAngel social and physiological punishment]] for doing so is why GainingTheWillToKill is such an undesirable path for Kenji to take even when it's needed, unlike other mods where Boyfriend has zero qualms doing so if the end justifies the means.
* InTheBlood: Just as unusually strong and ferocious as Kanata is when push comes to shove.
* {{Irony}}: He's an angel who becomes insatiably lustful on the clock at the sight of Hana, and thoroughly weirds out the [[HornyDevils succubus]] Aloe by doing so.
* LegacyCharacter: Blurs the line between merely adopting the original Boyfriend's mantle and actually being Boyfriend himself with how similar the two are on both backstory and appearance alone. To other characters in-universe, he's definitely the former and thus a proper example of the trope, though. Out-of-universe, he's pretty much ''the'' Boyfriend and no ShowWithinAShow is going to change that.
* LoveAtFirstSight: He lays his eyes on Hana ''once'' and immediately becomes hopelessly in love with her.
* MeaningfulName: "Tensei" is Japanese for "heavenly star," which fits in nicely with his origins, aspirations, and role as Boyfriend's stand-in.
* {{Nepotism}}: Downplayed; it's implied he has his restaurant job because of Kanata pulling some strings for her cousin, but Kenji was rather down in the dumps before becoming Boyfriend either way, and all bets were off the moment the recruiting initiative pulled from recommendations from within Hololive.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Delivers a truly cathartic one to Pico once he has had ''enough'' of the kid's [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse completely indefensible]] LackOfEmpathy and accountability, which at the ''bare minimum'' ends with Pico dislocating both of his shoulders, getting a solid head injury, and having his face caved in over and over again.
* OriginStory: ''The Dragon's Pizzeria'' turns out to also be the story of how Kenji becomes this world's Boyfriend.
* PromotedToPlayable: After he (or, well, the usual Boyfriend) got ditched from the status of protagonist for the streamer-safe version of the game in favor of Fubuki, Kenji finally makes his playable appearance as an unlockable character for freeplay mode in update 6.0.0. He even comes packaged with Hana, chillin' on the speakers as Girlfriend does.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Kanata's first cousin, which mirrors how the original Boyfriend is Music/HatsuneMiku's brother.
* TheUnintelligible: Subverted; unlike Boyfriend, Kenji is entirely willing to speak plain language to strangers.
* UncannyFamilyResemblance: His outfit and hair makes him look an awful lot like a genderbent version of his cousin Kanata.
* WrongGenreSavvy: His pre-Boyfriend self was convinced he was living in a SliceOfLife anime, and as a result unironically thought invoking the "toast-in-mouth" stock scene would be a surefire way to get girls. Hana ''does'' show up that day, but not because of Kenji's antics.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Girlfriend/Hana Kurayami]]
The Dearests' first daughter, who is in many ways just like the original, if a little smarter.
----
* AdaptationalHeroism: Downplayed; while Girlfriend was by no means evil in vanilla or [[VideoGame/VSWhitty the]] [[VideoGame/VsTabiExBoyfriend three]] [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinENTITY mods]] that provide Hana's old bandmates, she did show a degree of complacency at the bare minimum in letting it happen. Here, if Hana's behavior around Towa is any indication, while she wasn't able to stop Whitty, Tabi, and AGOTI from being doomed to their canon backstories, she at least has enough of a spine to hide Towa and later run away herself before Daddy Dearest can hurt anyone else around them. As for Kenji, [[ForegoneConclusion she doesn't need to worry about him]].
* BigBrotherInstinct: She cares about Towa's true passions and emphatically refuses to tell Daddy Dearest the truth about where she went.
* CanonWelding: [[VideoGame/VsTabiExBoyfriend Tabi]] and [[VideoGame/VsCarol Carol]] are still around and are implied to have once again experienced the best and worst parts of their own mods because of Hana.
* CerebusRetcon: It's implied she takes the events of Week 7 from the original game much more seriously than in canon, as it's because of the Tankmen that she decides to move out and live next to Kenji's Earth residence.
* CharClone: Hana retains Girlfriend's red ColorMotifs, has undisclosed family relations to a Holomem, is the star of her own show under an alias, has CoolShades that obscure her identity relative to public photos, and left her family to be with Kenji, checking off the vast majority of the criteria for this trope.
* CoolShades: Sports a pair that showcase her red-highlighted eyes. Supplementary depictions of the missing posters for her and Towa/Kaede suggest they serve as a mask for her identity.
* ForWantOfANail: Hana's only change in this universe compared to the original Girlfriend is being smarter. However, this means that being held up by a bunch of Tankmen in a military zone stings much more than in vanilla, causing Hana to leave her family.
* InSpiteOfANail: The only member of the original cast who has no changes to their backstory or species themselves, despite her parents being involved in a bunch of original story events. The only major change Hana has compared to Girlfriend is being smarter than the latter to bring her in line with Kenji's own intelligence.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Towa's sister in this world.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Daddy Dearest/Mr. Kurayami]]
The BigBad and source of all of Aloe's troubles, this world's Daddy Dearest is a mob boss who hijacked TheIrishMob's operations in Japan and uses their muscle to place a stranglehold on the nation's entertainment industry.
-----
* AdaptationalVillainy: Unique to this version of Daddy Dearest compared to other mods is his unrelenting persistence in hounding targets that aren't Boyfriend, repeatedly hatching more evil plans to deal with them if the ones before them fail. Even [[VideoGame/VsTabiExBoyfriend Tabi]] and [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinENTITY A.G.O.T.I.]] get off easy in comparison by dint of their punishments being the ''only'' things the Dearests did to them; meanwhile for Aloe, it was the ''last'' thing in a string of repeated hits that ''finally'' take away everything she loves.
* BeingEvilSucks: Daddy Dearest has everything some of his other counterparts would want - fame, wealth, dead or miserable competitors - but lacks something they do: a stable connection with his children, who want nothing to do with him because of his wrongdoings. [[EvilCannotComprehendGood Not that he'd understand, though]].
* BigBad: He's the original Daddy Dearest; it wouldn't be a ''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin'' story featuring him without also being the central antagonist.
* CanonWelding: He and the other Dearests are associated with at least one of the [[VideoGame/{{Pico}} goth kids]].
* {{Deconstruction}}: Downplayed, but it's there. His [[CardCarryingVillain comically heinous]] behavior universal to just about every single mod carries severe interpersonal consequences for him in this universe, as both of his kids no longer associate with him in a serious capacity due to his antics: Towa simply wanted to strike out on her own and had to run away from a person who likes inking those kinds of deals in blood, and supplementary notes imply Week 7 from the base game [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome blew up in Daddy Dearest's face way more than in canon]], costing him Hana's relationship.
* EnemyMine: Not above using the police to take down his targets if their goals align. Just ask Tsume.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: For someone who's portrayed as a complete bastard in just about any universe, he's decently pissed that Haachama is using her position as his personal chef to stalk off for HumanResources.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: It's been suggested he legitimately does not understand why Hana and Kaede/Towa left him, despite his never-ending list of transgressions that hit way too close to home.
* EvilIsPetty: The core of his operations revolves around manipulating Japan's entertainment industry not for a greater criminal cause (at least not one that any of our heroes know of), but rather pure unadulterated ego.
* FallenAngel: Is really just this rather than an actual demon, but goes to great pains to hide it. [[CerebusRetcon It also explains why]] Towa is a MinionWithAnFInEvil.
* {{Hypocrite}}: If he doesn't want to admit he's a FallenAngel, then ''why does he keep [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail Holy Hand Grenades]] for the express purpose of killing demons?''
* LastNameBasis: Can only really be referred to by his last name when discussing him without mentioning the title, as his first name is a tightly-kept secret both in- and out-of-universe. [[spoiler:And for good reason, because who the hell would take [[TomTheDarkLord a dangerous demon/fallen angel mob boss by the name of Kouta]] seriously?]]
* LegacyCharacter: "Daddy Dearest" is just a title in this world, which Mr. Kurayami took for himself after slaying the previous holder. He's still the original demonic arse from ''FNF'', though, just as a Japanese man.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Is somehow unaware that Towa works for Hololive, even accounting for her breaking away from the mob life and Hana's refusal to tell the truth.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: "Kurayami" is one of the most common Japanese words for "[[DarkIsEvil darkness]]."
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Implied and later confirmed through a family portrait to be Towa's father.
* TomTheDarkLord: [[spoiler:His real first name is "Kouta," a name more closely associated with heroic types in popular culture, and one of his stage names was "Krazy Kou."]]
* VillainTeamUp: Works with [[VideoGame/{{Pico}} Cyclops]], as shown in a cutscene showing him, Daddy Dearest, the henchmen, and an unidentified character (possibly [[spoiler:Aloe's in-universe twin brother, given the horns and pink streaks of hair]]) together.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Pico Phillips]]
Kenji's ex, and the kid who [[VideoGame/{{Pico}} single-handedly shut down a school shooting]]. Surprisingly, aside from being a FallenAngel this time around and being taught by Botan, little has changed about him in this world.
-----
* AdaptationalJerkass: Kenji's remarks in ''The Dragon's Pizzeria'' indicate that even accounting for his mental issues, this version of Pico isn't meant to be a likable character compared to canon. He is described as willingly refusing help despite being lucid enough to know he has problems, and the reason Kenji broke up with him is implied to involve Pico saying Aloe [[FantasticRacism deserved leaving the music industry just because she's a succubus]]. In other words, he's what the VirtualYouTuber fandom would call an "anti." As the story progresses, it also becomes clear that Pico legitimately [[BloodKnight enjoys killing]] and now thinks bullets are the best way to solve heated arguments.
* AssholeVictim: It is frequently made abundantly clear that Pico deserves ''everything'' that has happened to him since ''Pico's School'', as [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse no amount of trauma and injustice can excuse just how much of an unrepentant pile of shit he really is]]. Kenji points out that he doesn't even miss Heaven and not being a hitman, he just wants to have a convenient excuse to hurt others and get away with it.
* BoomerangBigot: Despite being racist towards succubi, a type of demon, Pico himself is a FallenAngel (albeit one strucken down on false charges) and is friends with [[{{Pyromaniac}} Darnell]], who is a ''very'' good example of why fallen angels are themselves considered demonic.
* TheCameo: Aside from Botan alluding to him as "an old collegue," his sole appearance in ''[=HoloFunk=]'' 5.0, aside being among the Week 5 crowd, is on a wanted poster in the background of Week 3, just like his canon ''FNF'' counterpart.
* CanonWelding: As Cyclops is an associate of the Dearests in this universe, the events of ''Pico's School'' remaining as-is and the [[FallenAngel consequences]] that befell him due to the failings of Heaven's justice system would make him a victim of Daddy Dearest by proxy.
* ClearMyName: Started taking contracts to kill demons for this. Then it quickly turned into [[BloodKnight something]] [[HeWhoFightsMonsters else]].
* CompositeCharacter: A mix of his vanilla self and the downfall his counterpart from ''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinSoft'' experiences. Moreover, the goth kids have some ties to the Dearests like in ''VideoGame/VSCassandra'' which make them an active threat even after their initial defeat, though here it's on the business side of things rather than familial ties.
* CynicismCatalyst: Most of his issues in this world now stem from Heaven's justice system turning against him despite saving his own school from the goth kids.
* DiggingYourselfDeeper: Doesn't want treatment, rehabilitation, or any other sort of aid for his mental issues. Though a part of it is said issues clouding his judgement, Kenji implies the ego of his original personality is also heavily contributing to this, meaning Pico is just tarnishing his already-shattered reputation through recklessness.
* FallenAngel: Got kicked out of Heaven due to a FrameUp implicating him with the goth kids. This understandably served as his CynicismCatalyst for this world, though a point is made that none of the above is what made Kenji dump him. [[FallenHero And if he didn't do anything wrong then, his decisions now ensure no one will ever want him back]].
* FallenHero: A classic Website/{{Newgrounds}} hero turned to genuine sociopathy and bloodlust after injustice sets him down the wrong path.
* FantasticRacism: Kenji describes him as having zero sympathy for Aloe just because she's a succubus, and that's why they aren't a couple anymore.
* FrameUp: Was framed for Cassandra's actions, which led to his fall.
* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: Yes, Pico was framed. Yes, he has severe PTSD from ''Pico's School.'' Yes, his family life sucks. No, that doesn't excuse the fact that he legitimately enjoys killing, that he's a humongous racist, that he may have forced his Nene and Darnell to kill with him, and that he wants Kenji to repay his attempts to help him in blood. The latter in particular leads Kenji to cash in Pico's KarmaHoudiniWarranty and beat the ''everloving shit'' out of him.
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: Slays demons through his mercenary job in hopes of validation, but given that this is the modern era, it's heavily rooted in FantasticRacism, his own insanity, paranoia, and just not being a very pleasant individual overall.
* InSpiteOfANail: Despite his different lineage and having a certain lioness to effectively raise him in his childhood, he otherwise remains mostly the same compared to vanilla in the present day. Quite humorously, though, ''Boyfriend's'' ex isn't him or an {{Expy}}.
* JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope: As TheExile for a school shooting he never committed, only stopped, the shell-shock and sudden disenfranchisement caused Pico to embrace evil. He acts as though he's in regular denial or that it's all just desperation, but is nearly killed the instant Kenji realizes it's all a farce.
* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: Started killing for fun and profit, calling it a desperate FallenOnHardTimesJob even though it clearly isn't. Kenji repeatedly tries to fix him, but he just keeps going back and getting away with it. Finally, Pico decides to dispose of him and gets a solid ass-whooping.
* LaserGuidedKarma: Tries to kill Kenji for rightfully pointing out that [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse the only thing underneath his trauma is a bloodthirsty failure of a person who doesn't deserve an excuse]]. It doesn't work, because the next thing Kenji does is dislocate both of Pico's shoulders ''before'' absolutely ''pulverizing'' him.
* MythologyGag: [[VideoGame/FridayNightFunkinSoft This isn't the first time an alternate version of Pico became an outcast for trying to stop a school shooting]].
* TheSociopath: Pico is a BloodKnight whose only real emotions that aren't the joy of killing consist of childish tantrums every time someone figures out he's actually just a sad, racist asshole with a gun and [[FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse rationale invalidated by his own ego]], and manipulated Darnell and his Nene into becoming mercenaries as well.
* WrongGenreSavvy: His current mindset is akin to that of a protagonist from a {{Shonen}} themed around monster-hunting with BlackAndWhiteMorality, along with some hints of the classic ClearMyName adventure. Unfortunately, this is an UrbanFantasy where all the races have learnt to get along, so instead of being brooding and cool, he's just batshit insane and more than a little bit of a {{Jerkass}}.

[[quoteright:174:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mamoru_1.PNG]]
[[caption-width-right:174:A concept sketch of a photo from a better time.]]
Former leader of the Mano Kai, who was initially a captive Daddy Dearest decided to use to take out the guy before him. [[HitmanWithAHeart Then he noticed two kids his mark left behind]], and the rest [[HappilyAdopted was history]]... [[PlotTriggeringDeath at least until the Dearests found out]].
-----
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: A hand grenade's bad enough of a way to go, but said grenade is explicitly a HolyHandGrenade, meaning the poor guy was pretty much wiped out of existence in a rather painful fashion. In Mr. Kurayami's defense, he was out of bullets and didn't have a better option.
* GoodParents: Despite being a crime boss, he truly, ''truly'' loved Aloe and her brother.
* HeroicSacrifice: Died shielding Aloe from an explosion of holy light.
* HitmanWithAHeart: He went along with the little stunt Mr. Kurayami roped him into back in 2001, but after learning the mark had kids, he dropped everything to escape and raise them as his own.

[[caption-width-right:226:[[labelnote:Click here to see his unmasked appearance]] https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sniper.PNG\\
[[VideoGame/{{Deltarune}} It's what they'd call "you."]][[/labelnote]]]]
A mysterious figure lines Daddy Dearest's rogues gallery along with the original four backup dancers and [[VideoGame/{{Pico}} Cyclops]]. What little physical traits are visible through the hood, though, are direct opposites of the corresponding traits in Aloe's appearance. [[CainAndAbel Now what was that supplementary bit about Aloe having a brother who later went missing after all the crap the Dearests sicced on them, again?]]
-----
* CanonForeigner: As with the rest of Aloe's family, his existence is made up for the mod's lore.
* ColdSniper: His current situation is amoral (or at least ''seriously'' uncaring for Aloe and the Mano Kai in the short term) at best, and viewing his only appearance without the dialogue box reveals he is armed with a large sniper rifle.
* EtTuBrute: The Mano Kai officially have him listed as MIA and have had their operations crippled because of his disappearance - he was supposed to become chairman after his father died, and Aloe isn't taking up the offer as plan B any time soon. What they don't know is that, whether willingly or by force, he's betrayed them all to join the group responsible for their nigh-extermination.
* EvilTwin: Aloe's literal fraternal twin who is both physically and morally her opposite.
* FaceHeelTurn: For whatever reason, he's decided working for the guy that killed his entire family to be a viable option. Whether he's been blackmailed, is plotting something else, or is just that much of a sellout is yet to be revealed.
* TheFaceless: His only in-game appearance doesn't show his actual face, because his hair color and demonic features are already more than enough for an astute viewer to put two and two together. It's possible the demon in [[https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/830693017434193920/866511599267610644/HoloFunk_Aggie_Night_7_18.png?width=1340&height=754 this art collaboration]] is his full appearance, as he shares the [[RedRightHand symmetrical horns]] and appears next to the 5.0 lore's depictions of Cyclops and Cassandra.
* HiddenInPlainSight: Of course the Mano Kai haven't been able to find him despite marks of his identity blatantly showing even through a cloak and total darkness. After all, why on Earth would you expect your immediate successor to peel off for the guy who murdered his own father?
* InTheHood: Only seen with a huge cloak that obscures his face, but shows just enough of his physical attributes to come to a particularly grim conclusion.
* RedRightHand: Inverted; Aloe is the hero with a physical imperfection ([[FashionableAsymmetry asymmetrical horns]]) while her brother is the hidden villain with a standard appearance.
* SiblingYinYang: Aloe is a succubus with pink and cream yellow hair, asymmetrical horns, and is fighting back the Dearests with her friends. Her brother is an incubus with cream hair with a hint of pink, symmetrical horns, and works for the mob despite them being the reason his family's life has been a hellhole for nearly two decades.
* WalkingSpoiler: As his existence is currently only mentioned in supplementary material, it's impossible to mention where he appears in-game without also spoiling an established setup for future weeks.
