!Main Characters
[[folder:Kikuru Madan]]
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kikuru.png]]
->'''Voiced by''': Creator/KatsumiFukuhara
TheAce of Mebuki Town, who after devoting his youth to training and hunting monsters, wants to retire to live a normal life.
----
* ArcherArchetype: Calm, cool, collected, accurate, and deadly.
* TheAce: A decidedly non-flashy variant. He is the ace of Mebuki, a title he achieved by being a very good hunter, stealthy, efficient, and very accurate with his bow.
* AceCustom: He requests that his reward for taking part in the subjugation of King Mashura is to obtain a new bow made from the Named's remains.
* AllTheOtherReindeer: He is looked down upon by other guards, who believe his status as TheAce is unearned due to only gaining it through having the most kills.
* BadassNormal: [[spoiler:Chapter 52 explains that Kikuru has no mana, which is why he is never shown using any skill. So instead he managed to [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower replicate the skills with his own strength]] after going through TrainingFromHell.]]
* BoringButPractical: Kikuru works much like a real hunter, stealthily approaching monsters and attacking a vulnerable point to take them down quickly. Flashy? No. Efficient? Yes. This is part of the reason why he is not as well-known as the aces of other towns, who have more flashy skills and abilities and killed Named monsters while Kikuru killed the would-be-Named monsters before they could grow up.
* BrutalHonesty: Kikuru does not sugarcoat the numerous flaws of his teammates that are constantly putting themselves and him in danger. He does want to help them grow, but he is far from delicate about it.
* ChivalrousPervert: He does not mind EatingTheEyeCandy when it presents itself, but is still a very laid-back, stand-up guy who will always save people in danger.
* CombatPragmatist: Kikuru's way of hunting monsters. Despite his skill, Kikuru only fights monsters head-on as either a last resort or as part of an overall greater strategy for his younger teammates to properly finish them off. When alone, he snipes monsters from a distance, uses traps to weaken and then kill them, or dodges their attacks until they've used up all their power. This is actually extremely efficient, as Kikuru performs far better than others who fight traditionally, as some monsters, and all of the Named, are stronger than even guards in most cases, and the only ones that reliably pull off fighting them head-on are guards with cursed names or are veterans with overwhelming power.
* CurbStompBattle: He delivers one to [[spoiler:the party of Ibara's ace including the ace himself]] for using [[spoiler:Hanabata as a decoy]].
* DeviousDaggers: His weapon for close combat is a dagger to represent his pragmatic fighting style, which he showcases through finding openings to slash his opponent's limbs to hinder their movements.
* ExperiencedProtagonist: He was declared the ace of Mebuki more than a year before the first chapter.
* FacePalm: Does it with both hands when he realizes the girls came to his neighborhood dressed as school girls while making a conversation that can be easily misinterpreted.
* ForbiddenFruit: While he can feel physical attraction to his companions, he usually shows a good control of his hormones when they are put in lewd situations while hunting. He struggles a lot more when it happens to Enome, and at the end of the first chapter where she is attacked by monsters, he makes a mental note on the "immoral" feeling he has now that he touched a married women, even if by necessity.
* GirlOnGirlIsHot: He found it particularly hard to resist his urges when a berserk Hanabata started molesting Hitamuki, something Tokishikko quickly took notice of.
* TheGreatestStoryNeverTold: Due to him crediting the defeat of the Named to the guards who landed the killing blow, he is not credited for their defeat despite being the one creating the plans and making sure they work by weakening the Named by fighting it directly.
* GoodIsNotSoft: Kikuru might be a genuinely nice person, but he takes his job very seriously, is always blunt with his teammates, utterly ruthless when hunting monsters, goes full-blown when it comes to training, and those who genuinely anger him are in for a lot of pain and slashed limbs.
* HumbleHero: Very humble in spite of his obvious skill.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: He asked the Bii siblings if they can sniff out the Nightmare they are hunting under the belief they have an exceptional smell like Hitamuki, another beast-person. Once they clarify that their sense of smell is normal, he apologizes for his prejudice.
* JackOfAllTrades: He is best described as an all-rounder who is skillful in martial arts, sword fighting, and archery, which allows him to adapt to the situation at hand. The only thing he can't do is recon and scouting, which is why he works the best with Hitamuki.
* NoOneGetsLeftBehind: His belief is that the ace is someone, who should not let anyone die, which he tells to [[spoiler:Saran, the ace of Ibara, whose belief is that the guards with the most kills should survive at the cost of sacrificing others]].
* NoRespectGuy: Despite being the ace of Mebuki Town, Kikuru is not known by the populace and is looked down on by other guards.
* NormalFishInATinyPond: This is what other guards ''think'' Kikuru is despite being the ace of Mebuki Town since he is never shown on the news. This causes some guards to think they can easily overtake his record and title, only for a duo of them only being able to barely kill around half the monsters he normally does daily by himself.
* NotSoWeak: While he doesn't do anything to other guards, who insult and doubt his abilities, he is absolutely enraged upon learning that [[spoiler:Saran's party sacrificed Hanabata to save themselves]]. What follows is a huge CurbStompBattle with his opponents unable to even hit him and leaving them with slashed and broken limbs to incapacitate them.
* ObliviousToLove: He doesn't seem to register that some of the girls might have feelings for him. This is probably coming off the back of Eshune stating that she doesn't love him romantically.
* OnlySaneMan: He is the most rational and competent member of the group, and has the least amount of issues. He doesn't mind all the lewdness he often encounters, but always points out how absurd it is.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: By virtue of being both a more seasoned adventurer and older than the ladies in his party. He wants to see the girls become better at hunting monsters and surpass their personal flaws, but he doesn't hesitate to point out what they do wrong with BrutalHonesty.
* TheReliableOne: Despite what the other guards around his age think about him, Kikuru is the ace of Mebuki Town for a reason, as his incredible combat skills, willingness to use pragmatic tactics, rational approach while fighting any monster, and overall thorough culling of them, even young monsters that would most likely become Named if they were allowed to grow, had made the monster threat level in Mebuki Town far lower than in other towns, and it is shown quite clearly that without him, Mebuki would be overrun by monsters, since the others are nowhere near his level.
* TheStrategist: Kikuru is the one who creates the subjugation plans for his party.
* StealthExpert: He is capable of hiding his presence of monsters and masking his killing intent allowing him to snipe them with his bow easily.
* TrainingFromHell: He spent most of his teenage years doing harsh training. It's the reason Kikuru is as good as he is… and as socially inept too. In an attempt to whip his party into shape, he subjects them to the same training.
* TranquilFury: [[spoiler:After Hanabata informed him that she was left for dead by Saran and his party,]] Kikuru is understandably enraged. In response to this treachery, he systematically slices and breaks all of their limbs in a chilling display of CurbStompBattle.
* VetinariJobSecurity: He is the sole reason why Mebuki is so safe, which is why he can't just quit without the risk of the town being overrun by monsters. This is shown when he returns from vacation with his party and visits the guild to see how things went. Inside the reception, there is complete chaos since the guards, who migrated from Kodama, were unable to handle his workload with several of them getting injured and/or molested by monsters.
* {{Workaholic}}: Despite wanting to retire, his vacation makes it clear that he doesn't like lazing around since he is too used to spending his entire life training and working without rest.
* WouldntHurtAChild: He only watches as a pair of twin boys [[DirtyKid tie up and sexually harass Hitamu]], with him claiming that they are even worse than the monsters because he can't bring himself to attack them.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Hitamu Kyan]]
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hitamu_n.png]]
->'''Voiced by''': Karin Isobe
A new guard Kikuru is assigned to train. A person, who doesn't plan things ahead and makes several blunders, which results in monsters easily defeating and molesting her.
----
* AesopAmnesia: No matter how many times people tell her to stop introducing herself to monsters and how many times monsters attack her midsentence, she keeps introducing herself.
* AffectionateNickname: Nicknames Kikuru "Kikun" soon after meeting him, and insists her friends can call her Hitamuki in turn.
* AwesomeButImpractical: Her counterattack skill might be powerful, but it comes with serious drawbacks that make it all but useless in a real fight. It can only be used with one opponent at a time and the practitioner has to remain completely still and in position.
* BlessedWithSuck: Something about Hitamuki's mana makes her very attractive to monsters.
* CorruptionOfAMinor: She unintentionally does this to a pair of twins, who now molest her when playing 'hero'.
* {{Counterattack}}: She knows the skill to counterattack an attacking monster, but it never actually works since the monsters are smart enough to not attack someone with such a firm fighting stance.
* CuteLittleFangs: She usually appears with a snaggletooth, which goes well with both her status as a beastman and her eagerness and cuteness.
* ExpressiveEars: Like a dog, her ears perk up or get down depending on her mood.
* FeminineWomenCanCook: Despite her status as a BareFistedMonk, she's pretty girly and is the best at cooking for all the girls on the party.
* HeadTurningBeauty: She catches a lot of guys' attention when she goes shopping with Kikuru.
* HartmanHips: Hitamuki has a big butt and the [[MaleGaze camera loves to look at it]].
* HonorBeforeReason: Her flaw is that she tries to honor the rules of martial arts against monsters, who just immediately attack and molest her when she tries greeting them.
* LeeroyJenkins: Her tactics don't go further than going up to the monster and attacking them openly.
* LittleBitBeastly: Hitamu is a beast person, with dog ears and a tail.
* TheLoad: Zig-zagged. She is rather useless as a martial artist since she is too kind to attack monsters discreetly, her moves are easily seen through, and is unable to adapt to the situation at hand, which is why she's unable to kill even a single monster. However, she is an excellent support, being able to scout monsters with her hearing and nose and later on knows healing abilities.
* MagicIsAMonsterMagnet: Her mana is so pure and replenishes so fast that monsters essentially see her as a gourmet source of mana.
* NiceGirl: She is so nice, she even feels bad about using dirty tactics against monsters.
* TheNicknamer: She likes to give nicknames to her friends. Kikuru is "Kikun", Maidena is "Maide", Hanabata is "Hana" and so on.
* TheNoseKnows: As a beastman, Hitamu has a pretty sharp nose, which she uses to track down monsters.
* SchoolSportUniform: She tends to wear such an outfit (complete with her name written on it) when she's not hunting monsters.
* SupportPartyMember: Despite her martial arts training, she is more or less useless in fighting against monsters. However, she has a great sense of smell allowing her to search for monsters and obtained healing skills allowing her to heal the injuries of other party members. Maidena even outright tells her that she is much more suited for support than for combat.
* ThirdPersonPerson: She refers to herself as Hitamuki, representing her youthfulness and immaturity.
* VerbalTic: To go with being a wolf girl, she occasionally adds 'wau' to the end of her sentences.
* WrongLineOfWork: Even Maidena tells her she's not cut out to be a martial artist and should focus with support instead.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Maidena Angers]]
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maidena_n.png]]
->'''Voiced by''': Ayano Shibuya
The second guard Kikuru is assigned to train. A prideful white mage, who is considered a genius in her field.
----
* ACupAngst: Being the youngest member of the party, she is also the flattest, a fact she doesn't like being reminded of.
* BarrierWarrior: Besides healing she can also create barriers of HardLight around her, but they aren't particularly tough unless she focuses.
* BreakTheHaughty: She started out as a rather prideful genius with tons of self-confidence, but after adventuring she is so scared of monsters till the point she's in tears over the fact she is forced to go to Kodama mountain under the belief that she has to fight against the Named.
* CovertPervert: It's not immediately apparent, but she develops a very masochistic side during her time with the guild.
** When a plant monster wraps its vines around her body, she gets so aroused by it that she later masturbates by tying herself up and rubbing against her staff.
** After posting a picture of herself online, she thinks about the compliments she received from anonymous people, fantasizing about how they would come over and violate her.
* DoesNotLikeMen: She sees men as perverts and is hostile to them. However, she eventually warms up to Kikuru, and [[{{Hypocrite}} she’s shown to have perverted tendencies of her own]].
* GoodThingYouCanHeal: She is very skilled with healing magic, which she can cast on both her teammates and herself.
* HealingMagicIsTheHardest: According to Maidena, healing magic is difficult to master. Whether that is true for other White Mages or just her is not addressed.
* IntimateMarks: Her magical crest is on her lower back, slightly above her butt.
* LethalHarmlessPowers: She is able to kill an octopus monster by purifying the salt water it was in into fresh water.
* ProneToTears: Her experiences with monster have left her quite prone to crying like a baby when things get too tough.
* SeriousBusiness: She takes spoilers in mystery novels very seriously, and Tokishikko pressing that button only enrages her.
* SquishyWizard: She is good with healing magic, but can't take a hit.
* TokenMiniMoe: Maidena is a small, 15 years old girl in a party where the other members are 18 or older.
* TooDumbToLive: After seeing Hitamu's loss against a slime, she still decides to rely on her for protection instead of the more competent and experienced Kikuru due to her dislike of men.

* TheGadfly: Loves to tease her friends, especially about the possibility of one of them hooking up with Kikuru.
* GamerChick: She spends most of her free time playing video games.
* GiverOfLameNames: The name she gave to the Named Yokegumo she killed is "God Dodge" due to its evasive capabilities. Naturally, Kikuru uses her as an example of how some Named get quirky names from their killer.
* GlassCannon: Her spells are very powerful, but low energy and stamina mean absolutely zero ability to take damage.
* IResembleThatRemark: When she complains to Kikuru that he's using her name as a synonym for lazing around, he points out she's slacking right now.
* LazyBum: Could be a very powerful mage, if only she would start making an effort to be one.
* MeaningfulName: Her name roughly spells 'Toxico' and it gives her the passive ability to be immune to poisons and diseases. She can transfer that protection to others with her saliva.
* OlderThanTheyLook: She doesn't look much different from the 15-year-old Maidena, but in reality, she is 18, like Hitamuki and Hanabata.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: The only reason she originally became a guard was due to the paycheck.
* PottyFailure: Due to drinking an excessive amount of mana potion to kill the Named Yokegumo, she ends up peeing herself while on top of Kikuru after being thoroughly exhausted.

* DCupDistress: She mentions it's difficult to get clothes that fit her proportions, she gets stiff shoulders and people always stare at her.
* DropTheHammer: Her weapon of choice is a war hammer with a flower design.
* IntoxicationEnsues: The effects of her Flower Frenzy skill causes this. According to Tokishikko, mana flows into her head and causes her to become drunk on it. Her inebriated state makes her childish and overly attached to Kikuru.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Due to always forgetting what happens when she uses Lunatic Flower, she has no idea what she does during Frenzy until Kikuru decides to tell her the truth by showing footage of her rampage. Naturally, she is very embarrassed upon finding out that she turns very childish and immature.
* LoveBeforeFirstSight: Even before meeting Kikuru, she already admired and had a crush on him due to him being the only person her father acknowledged.

* TheOjou: Comes from a very well-off family and prior to becoming an adventurer, she had her own security detail.

* SpoiledSweet: Heiress to a major company, still nice to everyone.
* StatuesqueStunner: Officially stands at 178cm tall, and she's a HeadTurningBeauty, even if her height is not mentioned.
* SuperStrength: She's incredibly strong, as demonstrated by the ease she has wielding her hammer. She can also give some pretty crushing {{Bear Hug}}s.
* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: Her speech patterns are masculine and she has a straightforward personality, but she likes to wear feminine clothing on her days off.
* UglyGuysHotDaughter: Not that her father is ugly, just incredibly stern-looking, but she's a total knockout and a sweetheart.
* WeakToMagic: She has monstrous physical strength but she's incredibly weak to magical attacks. It's so bad she even gets intoxicated with her own mana.

* {{Protectorate}}: This is how he was seen by his former party members, who didn't let him fight and instead told him to fall back due to considering him too beautiful for any harm to come.
* RedMage: His job class being able to use both white and black magic although not its more advanced spells.
* TheReliableOne: In contrast with Kikuru's other party members, he does not have any FatalFlaw which makes it hard to party with him.

----
* BuxomBeautyStandard: She has the second biggest pair in the series and she's considered quite attractive. Even Kikuru can't help but feel guilty about staring at her.

* DudeMagnet: Due to her looks and kind personality, she is popular with the guys.

* OlderThanTheyLook: She's 31 with an eleven-year-old daughter, but she doesn't look older than twenty. It runs in her family since her mother looks barely older than she does. It is explained this partly comes from her having fairy folk blood in her through her parents. [[spoiler:Being given divinity means she's likely TheAgeless.]]
* OnlyOneName: She has no surname due to [[spoiler:her status as the wife of a god and a minor deity in her own right.]]
* SemiDivine: [[spoiler:She also became part goddess after receiving divinity from her husband Zenith, putting her in the same range as a local deity.]]

* UnevenHybrid: Her mother is a half-blooded fairy folk and her father is full-blooded. This makes her 3/4th of fairy folk.
* WhatDoesSheSeeInHim: Everyone questions why she married Zenith and continues to be loyal to him despite his continued absence and womanizing.

->'''Voiced by''': Yuyu Shoji
The daughter of Enome who also works as a secretary of the Mebuki guild.
----
* DirtyKid: As the comments she makes whenever she finds Kikuru and her mother in compromising situations show, she is much more aware of sexual matters than you would expect of a child her age.
* DisappearedDad: Her father has been missing for 12 years, but she has little interest in ever meeting him again.
* InTheBlood: Eshune constant disrespect towards her father comes from inheriting his aggressive personality.
* LittleMissSnarker: She can say some really biting things when she wants to. Her father, [[spoiler:Zenith]], gets the brunt of it.
* NotAllowedToGrowUp: [[spoiler:Her father Zenith tells her that due to her divine blood, she will not grow much beyond a certain period. Luckily he gives her a 'Ceremony' that will allow her to dissipate her mana during her growth period.]]
* ParentsWalkInAtTheWorstTime: Inverted. She has a tendency of arriving at a scene right when Kikuru and Enome are in a compromising position.

* UnevenHybrid: Like her mother, she is partially fairy folk. [[spoiler:That she's the daughter of a god makes her half-goddess.]]
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: She's capable enough to work at the guild alongside her mother. She's also smart enough to get Kikuru and Enome into romantic situations.
* YouAreNotMyFather: When she finally meets her biological father Zenith she understandably wants nothing to do with him since not only did she never meet him once until this point, but he keeps flirting with every female he sees even right in front of his wife.

An imp who works as a nurse at Mebuki town's clinic.
----
* ACupAngst: She envies the larger breasts Enome and Hanabata have.
* TheLoad: Either as a nurse or as a secretary she's pretty bad and tends to cause more trouble than what she solves.
* TokenMiniMoe: She's even shorter than Maidena and Esyne and her kind look like children.
* TokenWholesome: Of all the female characters, she's the only one without a lewd moment.
* VagueAge: Because imps usually are OlderThanTheyLook, her age is difficult to determine due to her somewhat childish attitude.
* WorstAid: She's not a very good nurse. Not only does she screw up a schedule right before a medical check-up, but on another occasion, she also injected a random adventurer with a sedative without knowing its content and only used it based on its color.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Noma's former party members]]

----
* AntiMentor: When Noma adventured with them, they didn't let their junior fight at all and only told him to stay back away from danger. Naturally, this only led to Noma having confidence issues and not being able to obtain any field experience.
* ButtMonkey: They aren't taken that seriously by other characters and their only role is to lose to dangerous monsters and warn other characters about their impending doom.
* CondescendingCompassion: When Kikuru is forced to against a Named, their warnings are more or less the same as insults by calling him a weakling who has zero percent chance of surviving a battle against a Named.
* TheDividual: They are always seen together; their only difference is their job classes.
* {{Hypocrite}}: For all their dismissal of Kikuru, they have absolutely '''nothing''' to prove that they are more competent than him and their only ability shown on screen is barely surviving an encounter with the Named.
* KnowNothingKnowItAll: They see themselves as superior guards yet their only role is to barely survive an encounter with a Named and tell Kikuru how dangerous the monster is and that he will definitely get killed if he tries to fight. Naturally not only does Kikuru survive every encounter and outright help in the monster's subjugation, but their advice against the Nightmare in particular is completely useless.
* RunningGag: Their only role is to survive an encounter with the Named and tell Kikuru he stands no chance against it.
* UnderestimatingBadassery: They dismiss Kikuru as a weakling who only got his title of ace through killing a large amount of 'weak' monsters. Despite his being much more successful than them they continue to look down on him out of contempt for 'taking' Noma.
* WasTooHardOnHim: In an omake, they wondered if what they said to Kikuru was too harsh. They more or less [[IgnoredEpiphany ignore this out of a petty grudge]].

* DropTheHammer: Just like his daughter, his weapon of choice was a hammer, albeit much smaller than Hanabata's.
* FaceOfAThug: He looks very threatening due to his eyes, which gives him the impression of being overprotective, but in actuality, he tries to be a jovial guy and is very open and willing for Kikuru to marry his daughter.
* ItsQuietTooQuiet: When he goes to the forest expecting many monsters due to not having ventured for half a year, he notices the lack of monsters. He then sees Kikuru and realizes through a conversation that the new ace is the reason for the lack of monsters.
* NoSell: As a flashback shows a Todoguma punches him in the face. Only for him to be completely unfazed by it and kill the bear-like monster with his weapon.
* OnlySaneMan: Unlike other Guards, he acknowledges Kikuru's skills and knows full well he is the reason why Mebuki Town is so safe.
* RetiredBadass: Since he also needs to run a company, he is semi-retired as a guard.
* ShipperOnDeck: He wants Kikuru to marry his daughter.

* TheComicallySerious: She keeps a straight face even when talking about harsh training, inane things or how she got Kikuru flamed online trying to defend him.
* TrainingFromHell: She was subjected to this alongside Kikuru by her grandfather, and despite claiming otherwise she clearly hasn't forgiven him yet. She also subjects Hitamuki and Maidena to some harsh training as well.
* WellTrainedButInexperienced: Her skill as a kunoichi is very much true, but due to only being 18 years old she's not an official guard yet, so her only experience with monsters is through the internet, leaving her blindsided to a slime attack.

* LivingToys: [[spoiler:After his death, his soul is placed in one of the Kanzebo dolls made after his likeness.]]
* ShieldBash: Due to already having a unique skill called Perfect Defense, he does not use his shield for defense, but for offense.
* WalkingSpoiler: [[spoiler:It's hard to talk about him without mentioning the fact that he is dead due to being cursed by the Named Nightmare he killed.]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Okuri Bii]]
Kanzebo's sister and a necromancer, who controls the bodies of monsters she kills.
----
* BadPowersGoodPeople: She's a necromancer, a job that has a negative reputation, but she uses it for good. [[spoiler:This becomes even more true after she comes to terms with her brother's death and realizes using the corpses of monsters for her own purposes is wrong.]]
* DesecratingTheDead: [[spoiler:Out of grief for her brother's death, she reanimated both his body and the Nightmare due to not wanting to let go of her brother. The monster's reanimated in particular was seen as disrespectful due to it not being used for monster subjugation.]]
* LittleBitBeastly: Like Hitamu, she's a beastman, but she's a fox instead of a dog.
* TheNecromancer: Her job and skill are to control the corpses of monsters to fight for her.
* UnderestimatingBadassery: She saw Kikuru as a weakling due to him and his party struggling with Night Owls due to Hitamu screwing things up, along with not knowing him due to his lack of media exposure.

[[/folder]]

* ExtremeMeleeRevenge: The victim of this, [[spoiler:courtesy of Kikuru. Whereas his comrades suffered broken fingers and severed ligaments (and later beaten by San), Kikuru completely breaks all of Saran's limbs as punishment for his actions.]]
* TheFightingNarcissist: Saran is conceited and over-confident in his skills. He believes that the ace is supposed to survive and is willing to sacrifice others because his ego wouldn't allow him to die. He also thinks that as the ace, he is most suited to save lives, so those unimportant can die.

[[folder:Racob Udepsin]]
The Warrior of Saran's party.
----
* AttemptedRape: [[spoiler:If not for Kikuru's arrival, he would have raped Maidena. In addition to leaving Hanabata for dead, his idiocy in attempting the deed lands him and his party in [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome serious trouble with the authorities]] especially since Maidena is considered a holy maiden with said crime possibly causing humanity to lose access to white magic.]]
* TheBrute: He's the biggest party member, and has the personality to match.
* FatalFlaw: He has a tendency to [[DidntThinkThisThrough not think his actions through]]. For instance, [[spoiler:his overacting when pushing Hanabata in the way of Zuso's curse made their intentions too obvious and further implicated him and his party to the authorities. Also, his AttemptedRape of Maidena, a holy maiden, would've caused humanity to lose access to recovery magic.]]

[[folder:Zuso Kokumari]]
The Curse User of Saran's party.

* LecherousLicking: They do this to take Mana from humans, preferably women.

* OrificeInvasion: If it has tentacles, vines or the sort, you can bet the monster will shove it into the girl's mouth.

[[/folder]]
[[folder:Named]]
Evolved monsters that are smarter and stronger than the norm.

* NominalImportance: It's been pointed out Named are indeed more powerful and dangerous than average monsters.
* ItCanThink: These monsters are smarter than the average monster and can even strategize, which makes them all the more dangerous. Some are even capable of human speech.

----
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: While he knows he can destroy a village by himself, he knows full well that a guard strong enough to kill him would come such as Tohru.

* MindRape: He tries to inflict this on Kikuru with Trauma, but ends up inflicting this on Enome instead, who then dreams about being molested by monsters.
* NoRespectGuy: Invoked, in order to stop people from claiming to be descendant, it was also added that he is a huge womanizer, which also causes the entire cast including his own daughter to have no respect for him.
* TheOmniscient: He claims to have this when trying to hit on Maidena. However, it turns out to not be completely true since he became weaker due to the weakened faith humanity has in him.
* OnlyOneName: Due to being a god, he only has one name since they do not have the need to distinguish amongst themselves like humans.

* AceCustom: He requests that his reward for taking part in the subjugation of King Mashura is to obtain a new bow made from the Named's remains.
* AllTheOtherReindeer: He is looked down upon by other guards, who believe his status as TheAce is unearned due to only gaining it through having the most kills.
* BadassNormal: [[spoiler:Chapter 52 explains that Kikuru has no mana, which is why he is never shown using any skill. So instead he managed to [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower replicate the skills with his own strength]] after going through TrainingFromHell.]]
* BoringButPractical: Kikuru works much like a real hunter, stealthily approaching monsters and attacking a vulnerable point to take them down quickly. Flashy? No. Efficient? Yes. This is part of the reason why he is not as well-known as the aces of other towns, who have more flashy skills and abilities and killed Named monsters while Kikuru killed the would-be-Named monsters before they could grow up.
* BrutalHonesty: Kikuru does not sugarcoat the numerous flaws of his teammates that are constantly putting themselves and him in danger. He does want to help them grow, but he is far from delicate about it.
* ChivalrousPervert: He does not mind EatingTheEyeCandy when it presents itself, but is still a very laid-back, stand-up guy who will always save people in danger.
* CombatPragmatist: Kikuru's way of hunting monsters. Despite his skill, Kikuru only fights monsters head-on as either a last resort or as part of an overall greater strategy for his younger teammates to properly finish them off. When alone, he snipes monsters from a distance, uses traps to weaken and then kill them, or dodges their attacks until they've used up all their power. This is actually extremely efficient, as Kikuru performs far better than others who fight traditionally, as some monsters, and all of the Named, are stronger than even guards in most cases, and the only ones that reliably pull off fighting them head-on are guards with cursed names or are veterans with overwhelming power.
* CurbStompBattle: He delivers one to [[spoiler:the party of Ibara's ace including the ace himself]] for using [[spoiler:Hanabata as a decoy]].
* DeviousDaggers: His weapon for close combat is a dagger to represent his pragmatic fighting style, which he showcases through finding openings to slash his opponent's limbs to hinder their movements.
* ExperiencedProtagonist: He was declared the ace of Mebuki more than a year before the first chapter.
* FacePalm: Does it with both hands when he realizes the girls came to his neighborhood dressed as school girls while making a conversation that can be easily misinterpreted.
* ForbiddenFruit: While he can feel physical attraction to his companions, he usually shows a good control of his hormones when they are put in lewd situations while hunting. He struggles a lot more when it happens to Enome, and at the end of the first chapter where she is attacked by monsters, he makes a mental note on the "immoral" feeling he has now that he touched a married women, even if by necessity.
* GirlOnGirlIsHot: He found it particularly hard to resist his urges when a berserk Hanabata started molesting Hitamuki, something Tokishikko quickly took notice of.
* TheGreatestStoryNeverTold: Due to him crediting the defeat of the Named to the guards who landed the killing blow, he is not credited for their defeat despite being the one creating the plans and making sure they work by weakening the Named by fighting it directly.
* GoodIsNotSoft: Kikuru might be a genuinely nice person, but he takes his job very seriously, is always blunt with his teammates, utterly ruthless when hunting monsters, goes full-blown when it comes to training, and those who genuinely anger him are in for a lot of pain and slashed limbs.
* HumbleHero: Very humble in spite of his obvious skill.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: He asked the Bii siblings if they can sniff out the Nightmare they are hunting under the belief they have an exceptional smell like Hitamuki, another beast-person. Once they clarify that their sense of smell is normal, he apologizes for his prejudice.
* JackOfAllTrades: He is best described as an all-rounder who is skillful in martial arts, sword fighting, and archery, which allows him to adapt to the situation at hand. The only thing he can't do is recon and scouting, which is why he works the best with Hitamuki.
* NoOneGetsLeftBehind: His belief is that the ace is someone, who should not let anyone die, which he tells to [[spoiler:Saran, the ace of Ibara, whose belief is that the guards with the most kills should survive at the cost of sacrificing others]].
* NoRespectGuy: Despite being the ace of Mebuki Town, Kikuru is not known by the populace and is looked down on by other guards.
* NormalFishInATinyPond: This is what other guards ''think'' Kikuru is despite being the ace of Mebuki Town since he is never shown on the news. This causes some guards to think they can easily overtake his record and title, only for a duo of them only being able to barely kill around half the monsters he normally does daily by himself.
* NotSoWeak: While he doesn't do anything to other guards, who insult and doubt his abilities, he is absolutely enraged upon learning that [[spoiler:Saran's party sacrificed Hanabata to save themselves]]. What follows is a huge CurbStompBattle with his opponents unable to even hit him and leaving them with slashed and broken limbs to incapacitate them.
* ObliviousToLove: He doesn't seem to register that some of the girls might have feelings for him. This is probably coming off the back of Eshune stating that she doesn't love him romantically.
* OnlySaneMan: He is the most rational and competent member of the group, and has the least amount of issues. He doesn't mind all the lewdness he often encounters, but always points out how absurd it is.
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: By virtue of being both a more seasoned adventurer and older than the ladies in his party. He wants to see the girls become better at hunting monsters and surpass their personal flaws, but he doesn't hesitate to point out what they do wrong with BrutalHonesty.
* TheReliableOne: Despite what the other guards around his age think about him, Kikuru is the ace of Mebuki Town for a reason, as his incredible combat skills, willingness to use pragmatic tactics, rational approach while fighting any monster, and overall thorough culling of them, even young monsters that would most likely become Named if they were allowed to grow, had made the monster threat level in Mebuki Town far lower than in other towns, and it is shown quite clearly that without him, Mebuki would be overrun by monsters, since the others are nowhere near his level.
* TheStrategist: Kikuru is the one who creates the subjugation plans for his party.
* StealthExpert: He is capable of hiding his presence of monsters and masking his killing intent allowing him to snipe them with his bow easily.
* TrainingFromHell: He spent most of his teenage years doing harsh training. It's the reason Kikuru is as good as he is… and as socially inept too. In an attempt to whip his party into shape, he subjects them to the same training.
* TranquilFury: [[spoiler:After Hanabata informed him that she was left for dead by Saran and his party,]] Kikuru is understandably enraged. In response to this treachery, he systematically slices and breaks all of their limbs in a chilling display of CurbStompBattle.
* VetinariJobSecurity: He is the sole reason why Mebuki is so safe, which is why he can't just quit without the risk of the town being overrun by monsters. This is shown when he returns from vacation with his party and visits the guild to see how things went. Inside the reception, there is complete chaos since the guards, who migrated from Kodama, were unable to handle his workload with several of them getting injured and/or molested by monsters.
* {{Workaholic}}: Despite wanting to retire, his vacation makes it clear that he doesn't like lazing around since he is too used to spending his entire life training and working without rest.
* WouldntHurtAChild: He only watches as a pair of twin boys [[DirtyKid tie up and sexually harass Hitamu]], with him claiming that they are even worse than the monsters because he can't bring himself to attack them.

->'''Voiced by''': Karin Isobe
A new guard Kikuru is assigned to train. A person, who doesn't plan things ahead and makes several blunders, which results in monsters easily defeating and molesting her.
----
* AesopAmnesia: No matter how many times people tell her to stop introducing herself to monsters and how many times monsters attack her midsentence, she keeps introducing herself.
* AffectionateNickname: Nicknames Kikuru "Kikun" soon after meeting him, and insists her friends can call her Hitamuki in turn.
* AwesomeButImpractical: Her counterattack skill might be powerful, but it comes with serious drawbacks that make it all but useless in a real fight. It can only be used with one opponent at a time and the practitioner has to remain completely still and in position.
* BlessedWithSuck: Something about Hitamuki's mana makes her very attractive to monsters.
* CorruptionOfAMinor: She unintentionally does this to a pair of twins, who now molest her when playing 'hero'.
* {{Counterattack}}: She knows the skill to counterattack an attacking monster, but it never actually works since the monsters are smart enough to not attack someone with such a firm fighting stance.
* CuteLittleFangs: She usually appears with a snaggletooth, which goes well with both her status as a beastman and her eagerness and cuteness.
* ExpressiveEars: Like a dog, her ears perk up or get down depending on her mood.
* FeminineWomenCanCook: Despite her status as a BareFistedMonk, she's pretty girly and is the best at cooking for all the girls on the party.
* HeadTurningBeauty: She catches a lot of guys' attention when she goes shopping with Kikuru.
* HartmanHips: Hitamuki has a big butt and the [[MaleGaze camera loves to look at it]].
* HonorBeforeReason: Her flaw is that she tries to honor the rules of martial arts against monsters, who just immediately attack and molest her when she tries greeting them.
* LeeroyJenkins: Her tactics don't go further than going up to the monster and attacking them openly.
* LittleBitBeastly: Hitamu is a beast person, with dog ears and a tail.
* TheLoad: Zig-zagged. She is rather useless as a martial artist since she is too kind to attack monsters discreetly, her moves are easily seen through, and is unable to adapt to the situation at hand, which is why she's unable to kill even a single monster. However, she is an excellent support, being able to scout monsters with her hearing and nose and later on knows healing abilities.
* MagicIsAMonsterMagnet: Her mana is so pure and replenishes so fast that monsters essentially see her as a gourmet source of mana.
* NiceGirl: She is so nice, she even feels bad about using dirty tactics against monsters.
* TheNicknamer: She likes to give nicknames to her friends. Kikuru is "Kikun", Maidena is "Maide", Hanabata is "Hana" and so on.
* TheNoseKnows: As a beastman, Hitamu has a pretty sharp nose, which she uses to track down monsters.
* SchoolSportUniform: She tends to wear such an outfit (complete with her name written on it) when she's not hunting monsters.
* SupportPartyMember: Despite her martial arts training, she is more or less useless in fighting against monsters. However, she has a great sense of smell allowing her to search for monsters and obtained healing skills allowing her to heal the injuries of other party members. Maidena even outright tells her that she is much more suited for support than for combat.
* ThirdPersonPerson: She refers to herself as Hitamuki, representing her youthfulness and immaturity.
* VerbalTic: To go with being a wolf girl, she occasionally adds 'wau' to the end of her sentences.
* WrongLineOfWork: Even Maidena tells her she's not cut out to be a martial artist and should focus with support instead.

----
* ACupAngst: Being the youngest member of the party, she is also the flattest, a fact she doesn't like being reminded of.
* BarrierWarrior: Besides healing she can also create barriers of HardLight around her, but they aren't particularly tough unless she focuses.
* BreakTheHaughty: She started out as a rather prideful genius with tons of self-confidence, but after adventuring she is so scared of monsters till the point she's in tears over the fact she is forced to go to Kodama mountain under the belief that she has to fight against the Named.
* CovertPervert: It's not immediately apparent, but she develops a very masochistic side during her time with the guild.
** When a plant monster wraps its vines around her body, she gets so aroused by it that she later masturbates by tying herself up and rubbing against her staff.
** After posting a picture of herself online, she thinks about the compliments she received from anonymous people, fantasizing about how they would come over and violate her.
* DoesNotLikeMen: She sees men as perverts and is hostile to them. However, she eventually warms up to Kikuru, and [[{{Hypocrite}} she’s shown to have perverted tendencies of her own]].
* GoodThingYouCanHeal: She is very skilled with healing magic, which she can cast on both her teammates and herself.
* HealingMagicIsTheHardest: According to Maidena, healing magic is difficult to master. Whether that is true for other White Mages or just her is not addressed.
* IntimateMarks: Her magical crest is on her lower back, slightly above her butt.
* LethalHarmlessPowers: She is able to kill an octopus monster by purifying the salt water it was in into fresh water.
* ProneToTears: Her experiences with monster have left her quite prone to crying like a baby when things get too tough.
* SeriousBusiness: She takes spoilers in mystery novels very seriously, and Tokishikko pressing that button only enrages her.
* SquishyWizard: She is good with healing magic, but can't take a hit.
* TokenMiniMoe: Maidena is a small, 15 years old girl in a party where the other members are 18 or older.
* TooDumbToLive: After seeing Hitamu's loss against a slime, she still decides to rely on her for protection instead of the more competent and experienced Kikuru due to her dislike of men.
* TraumaButton: PlayedForLaughs. Due to experiencing Kikuru's TrainingFromHell, whenever someone mentions "training" and "pain" together, she reacts like a scared little animal.
* WhiteMage: Her class InUniverse. Her role in the group is to be a healer.

* TheGadfly: Loves to tease her friends, especially about the possibility of one of them hooking up with Kikuru.
* GamerChick: She spends most of her free time playing video games.
* GiverOfLameNames: The name she gave to the Named Yokegumo she killed is "God Dodge" due to its evasive capabilities. Naturally, Kikuru uses her as an example of how some Named get quirky names from their killer.
* GlassCannon: Her spells are very powerful, but low energy and stamina mean absolutely zero ability to take damage.
* IResembleThatRemark: When she complains to Kikuru that he's using her name as a synonym for lazing around, he points out she's slacking right now.
* LazyBum: Could be a very powerful mage, if only she would start making an effort to be one.
* MeaningfulName: Her name roughly spells 'Toxico' and it gives her the passive ability to be immune to poisons and diseases. She can transfer that protection to others with her saliva.
* OlderThanTheyLook: She doesn't look much different from the 15-year-old Maidena, but in reality, she is 18, like Hitamuki and Hanabata.
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: The only reason she originally became a guard was due to the paycheck.
* PottyFailure: Due to drinking an excessive amount of mana potion to kill the Named Yokegumo, she ends up peeing herself while on top of Kikuru after being thoroughly exhausted.

* DropTheHammer: Her weapon of choice is a war hammer with a flower design.
* IntoxicationEnsues: The effects of her Flower Frenzy skill causes this. According to Tokishikko, mana flows into her head and causes her to become drunk on it. Her inebriated state makes her childish and overly attached to Kikuru.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Due to always forgetting what happens when she uses Lunatic Flower, she has no idea what she does during Frenzy until Kikuru decides to tell her the truth by showing footage of her rampage. Naturally, she is very embarrassed upon finding out that she turns very childish and immature.
* LoveBeforeFirstSight: Even before meeting Kikuru, she already admired and had a crush on him due to him being the only person her father acknowledged.

* InTheBlood: Eshune constant disrespect towards her father comes from inheriting his aggressive personality.

* ButtMonkey: They aren't taken that seriously by other characters and their only role is to lose to dangerous monsters and warn other characters about their impending doom.
* CondescendingCompassion: When Kikuru is forced to against a Named, their warnings are more or less the same as insults by calling him a weakling who has zero percent chance of surviving a battle against a Named.
* TheDividual: They are always seen together; their only difference is their job classes.
* {{Hypocrite}}: For all their dismissal of Kikuru, they have absolutely '''nothing''' to prove that they are more competent than him and their only ability shown on screen is barely surviving an encounter with the Named.
* KnowNothingKnowItAll: They see themselves as superior guards yet their only role is to barely survive an encounter with a Named and tell Kikuru how dangerous the monster is and that he will definitely get killed if he tries to fight. Naturally not only does Kikuru survive every encounter and outright help in the monster's subjugation, but their advice against the Nightmare in particular is completely useless.
* RunningGag: Their only role is to survive an encounter with the Named and tell Kikuru he stands no chance against it.
* UnderestimatingBadassery: They dismiss Kikuru as a weakling who only got his title of ace through killing a large amount of 'weak' monsters. Despite his being much more successful than them they continue to look down on him out of contempt for 'taking' Noma.

* MoodSwinger: He can go from calm and collected to incredibly upset at the drop of a hat, which Kikuru lampshades.
* MurderIsTheBestSolution: Being an old school ninja means his first approach to a problem is to murder someone, which Kikuru calls him out.
* RetiredBadass: He might be retired but he hasn't lost any of his edge and can give Kikuru a hard time.
* SirSwearsALot: His speech is translated with a lot of curses when talking or yelling.
* SmokingIsCool: He's seen smoking a kiseiru pipe and he's rather cool when actually calm.
* TrainingFromHell: He subjected both Kikuru and his granddaughter Sanzo to the same hellish training, and both haven't fully overcome it.

[[folder:Zanzo Hatsudori]]
The granddaughter of Hochou who was trained alongside Kikuru when they were children.
----
* BlindWithoutThem: She can't see very well without her glasses, which is how a bunch of slimes got the drop on her and she got molested alongside Hitamuki and Maidena.
* TheComicallySerious: She keeps a straight face even when talking about harsh training, inane things or how she got Kikuru flamed online trying to defend him.
* TrainingFromHell: She was subjected to this alongside Kikuru by her grandfather, and despite claiming otherwise she clearly hasn't forgiven him yet. She also subjects Hitamuki and Maidena to some harsh training as well.
* WellTrainedButInexperienced: Her skill as a kunoichi is very much true, but due to only being 18 years old she's not an official guard yet, so her only experience with monsters is through the internet, leaving her blindsided to a slime attack.

!Tane Town
[[folder:Mishelly Hito]]
The only remaining young guard in Tane Town. A very shy 21-year-old young woman.

* BarrierWarrior: Instead of fighting up close, she instead creates huge magical barriers to keep monsters away from her.
* DontLookAtMe: She doesn't handle being looked at very well.
* ShrinkingViolet: She's so shy she even wears a fox mask over her face. That she lets others see her face is a sign of her growth.

[[/folder]]
!Kodama Town
[[folder:Kanzebo Bii]]
The ace of Kodama Town known for his invincible defense.

* BrotherSisterTeam: He and his sister Okuri are a team who work together.
* DeadAllAlong: [[spoiler:In his second meeting with Kikuru, he already died from Nightmare's dying curse with his body being reanimated by his grieving sister.]]
* FamedInStory: He is a well-known ace thanks to his strength till the point they sell toys based on his likeness there.
* LittleBitBeastly: Like his sister, he's a fox beastman.
* LivingToys: [[spoiler:After his death, his soul is placed in one of the Kanzebo dolls made after his likeness.]]
* ShieldBash: Due to already having a unique skill called Perfect Defense, he does not use his shield for defense, but for offense.
* WalkingSpoiler: [[spoiler:It's hard to talk about him without mentioning the fact that he is dead due to being cursed by the Named Nightmare he killed.]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Okuri Bii]]
Kanzebo's sister and a necromancer, who controls the bodies of monsters she kills.
----
* BadPowersGoodPeople: She's a necromancer, a job that has a negative reputation, but she uses it for good. [[spoiler:This becomes even more true after she comes to terms with her brother's death and realizes using the corpses of monsters for her own purposes is wrong.]]
* DesecratingTheDead: [[spoiler:Out of grief for her brother's death, she reanimated both his body and the Nightmare due to not wanting to let go of her brother. The monster's reanimated in particular was seen as disrespectful due to it not being used for monster subjugation.]]
* LittleBitBeastly: Like Hitamu, she's a beastman, but she's a fox instead of a dog.
* TheNecromancer: Her job and skill are to control the corpses of monsters to fight for her.
* UnderestimatingBadassery: She saw Kikuru as a weakling due to him and his party struggling with Night Owls due to Hitamu screwing things up, along with not knowing him due to his lack of media exposure. [[spoiler:He proves her wrong when he came back and showed he could have succeeded at killing the Nightmare by himself, leaving her with no idea how to treat him.]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder:San Hoshi]]
A guard from Kodama Town, who accompanies Kikuru's party to Kodama Mountain to defeat the Named there. As a monster user, she fights with a whip she uses to control monsters and is skilled enough to be a candidate for the next ace.
----
* TheAce: She becomes the new ace of Kodama Town due to her contribution to the subjugation of King Mashura and the other two ace candidates being relocated to Ibara Town due to [[spoiler:Saran's party losing their status out of misconduct]].
* BerserkButton: Don't mock or tease her about her height, as Coin found out.
* CoolBigSis: She's seen as one by Hanabata.
* BigSisterInstinct: She personally punishes [[spoiler:Saran's party members for abandoning Hanabata]].
* EarlyBirdCameo: She made her first appearance in chapter 37 as one of the candidates for becoming the next ace of Kodama before making her proper debut in chapter 47.
* LittleMissBadass: Kikuru mentions that she is one of the next candidates to be the next ace Kodoma Town. Her combat prowess shows why.
* MindRape: She can cut the arteries to the brains of monsters she controls if they disobey her orders. Normally it only should cause a severe headache, but when she uses it she causes the monsters to faint from the pain.
* NotSoStoic: Despite her usually unflappable demeanor [[spoiler:she expresses genuine sadness at the death of King Masura and how his friendship with Seiten would indirectly save her life]].
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Being an imp she only stands around 112 cm tall, despite this, she is surprisingly durable and strong for someone her size.
* WhipOfDominance: She's a stern guard who fights and [[TheBeastmaster controls monsters]] with her whip. And despite her size, she can be quite ruthless and intimidating, and often uses her whip to strangle the people who annoy her.

!Ibara Town
[[folder:Saran Blade]]
The ace of Ibara Town, he and his party were sent to deal with the Named in Kodama Mountain.
----
* BreakTheHaughty: [[spoiler:By the end of the Kodama Mountain arc, he's humbled by his defeat at Kikuru's hands and the weight of the crimes he and his party committed.]]
* EvilCounterpart: To [[HumbleHero Kikuru]]. He represents what kind of person Kikuru would be if he let his skills and position as the ace go to his head and didn't care for other people.
* ExtremeMeleeRevenge: The victim of this, [[spoiler:courtesy of Kikuru. Whereas his comrades suffered broken fingers and severed ligaments (and later beaten by San), Kikuru completely breaks all of Saran's limbs as punishment for his actions.]]
* TheFightingNarcissist: Saran is conceited and over-confident in his skills. He believes that the ace is supposed to survive and is willing to sacrifice others because his ego wouldn't allow him to die. He also thinks that as the ace, he is most suited to save lives, so those unimportant can die.
* HeelRealization: [[spoiler:After the incident at Kodama Mountain is resolved, Saran realizes his mistakes and how arrogant he's been, for which he apologizes for the trouble he's caused.]]
* KickTheDog: He and his comrades do this to [[spoiler:Hanabata when they purposely paralyze her and leave to her die fighting King Masura. They pay for this dearly.]]
* MagicKnight: His class. He can use sword skills and magic inherited from his parents. [[spoiler:Unfortunately for him, it means nothing to [[CombatPragmatist Kikuru.]]]]
* OnlyInItForTheMoney: He and his party members tried to kill a sentient NonMaliciousMonster simply because Named monsters pay a lot of money.
* PrettyBoy: He's quite dashing compared to his gangly and brutish party members.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Racob Udepsin]]
The Warrior of Saran's party.
----
* AttemptedRape: [[spoiler:If not for Kikuru's arrival, he would have raped Maidena. In addition to leaving Hanabata for dead, his idiocy in attempting the deed lands him and his party in [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome serious trouble with the authorities]] especially since Maidena is considered a holy maiden with said crime possibly causing humanity to lose access to white magic.]]
* TheBrute: He's the biggest party member, and has the personality to match.
* FatalFlaw: He has a tendency to [[DidntThinkThisThrough not think his actions through]]. For instance, [[spoiler:his overacting when pushing Hanabata in the way of Zuso's curse made their intentions too obvious and further implicated him and his party to the authorities. Also, his AttemptedRape of Maidena, a holy maiden, would've caused humanity to lose access to recovery magic.]]
* OnlyAFleshWound: Subverted while he is still conscious after [[spoiler:Kikuru]] cuts his elbows, it still hurts like hell and makes him unable to move his arms.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Zuso Kokumari]]
The Curse User of Saran's party.
----
* TheDarkArts: As a Curse User, his skills revolve around casting curses on a target.
* {{Jerkass}}: Like his teammates, he isn't a good person. He might be the most unpleasant between the three of them.
* {{Fingore}}: [[spoiler:Kikuru]] breaks all his fingers to prevent him from casting curses.
[[/folder]]
!Monsters
[[folder:In General]]
* LecherousLicking: They do this to take Mana from humans, preferably women.
* MagicEater: They primarily subsist on Mana, and their preferred method of doing so is to take it from female guards.
* OrificeInvasion: If it has tentacles, vines or the sort, you can bet the monster will shove it into the girl's mouth.
* SkewedPriorities: They'll often forget about everything else once they get their claws on prey. It leads to their deaths more often than not.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Named]]
Evolved monsters that are smarter and stronger than the norm.
----
* TheDreaded: Taking these things on is not an easy task. Kikuru was rightfully nervous to try fighting the Repel Spider.
* NominalImportance: It's been pointed out Named are indeed more powerful and dangerous than average monsters.
* ItCanThink: These monsters are smarter than the average monster and can even strategize, which makes them all the more dangerous. Some are even capable of human speech.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:King Mashura]]
A Named Double Monkey inhabiting Kodama Mountain, who started killing guards.
----
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: While he knows he can destroy a village by himself, he knows full well that a guard strong enough to kill him would come such as Tohru.
* AntiVillain: He started killing guards out of revenge for them unjustifiably killing members of his kind, who posed no threat to humans due to him ordering them to stay in their area.
* LonelyAtTheTop: Due to his strength and intelligence, he did not have a true place among others of his kind.
* SizeShifter: He is able to make himself three times bigger.
* WorthyOpponent: He acknowledges Kikuru as a worthy opponent due to how much the guard manages to push him to the limits through sheer tactics and combat pragmatism.
[[/folder]]
!Other
[[folder:Zenith (Unmarked Spoilers!)]]
The god responsible for giving humanity their skills and Enome's absent husband.
----
* CasanovaWannabe: He is a huge flirt that hits on every female he sees despite being married, but is always rejected. His only success with Enome came due to hitting on her for 10 years.
* MindRape: He tries to inflict this on Kikuru with Trauma, but ends up inflicting this on Enome instead, who then dreams about being molested by monsters.
* NoRespectGuy: Invoked, in order to stop people from claiming to be descendant, it was also added that he is a huge womanizer, which also causes the entire cast including his own daughter to have no respect for him.
* TheOmniscient: He claims to have this when trying to hit on Maidena. However, it turns out to not be completely true since he became weaker due to the weakened faith humanity has in him.
* OnlyOneName: Due to being a god, he only has one name since they do not have the need to distinguish amongst themselves like humans.
