* AnimalMotifs: Saki's battle outfit invokes a CatGirl motif, complete with cat ears and a tail.
* BrokenBird: Saki lost her will to live because of the guilt she felt over abandoning Mirai at the hardest time of his life and witnessing his suicide attempt.

!God and Guardian Angels
!!God
[[folder:God]]
!!God
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/platinum_end_god.jpg]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YusakuYara (JP)

The entity in charge of the god contest, and possibly everything else.

!!!Tropes associated with God:
* GodNeedsPrayerBadly: Yoneda says that he thinks the God contest happened because God was weakened by the rise of atheism and skepticism and so promoted a public contest of supernatural beings to ensure that people began believing again. [[spoiler: He's proven wrong later as God already exists long before there were humans]].
* PlotTriggeringDeath: The fact that he's dying kickstarted the plot.
* {{Tulpa}}: Yoneda theorizes that this God came about through the power of people believing in Him. [[spoiler: {{Averted}} later on when it's revealed that God was also created by another being, not humans. In fact, God was the one who created humans in the first place]].

[[folder:New God (Spoilers)]]
!!New God

The entity created from Shuji Nakaumi fusing with the dying God.

!!!Tropes associated with God:
* AllPowerfulBystander: {{Deconstructed|Trope}}. He quickly realizes the downside of being God; now he must watch the suffering and injustice of the human world for eternity, without ever doing anything about it. This leads him to the conclusion that the world doesn't need a God and commits suicide. This turns out to be a ''terrible'' choice since all of humanity dies without the existence of a God.
* BarrierMaiden: {{Deconstructed|Trope}}. He assumed it wouldn't matter that he killed himself since God isn't supposed to help humans anyway. He was dead wrong. Both angels and humans ''did'' need a God to exist as they all die the moment he kills himself.
* DespairEventHorizon: He initially seems to embrace the title of God firmly because he can gaze upon humanity and its greatest achievements. However, when Shuji turns his attention to human suffering and death, he loses his will to continue and kills himself, because he believes humans are predisposed to choose death.
* DrivenToSuicide: In the end, he finds that being God is worthless if all he's going to do is watch as humans suffer. He then uses a white arrow on himself.
* GodIsDead: The series ends with the new God killing himself with a white arrow. [[DownerEnding The ultimate consequence is the erasure of life, mortal and angelic, and reality.]]

Kakehashi's guardian angel, who has sworn to make him happy. She's a "special angel", and also one of the more enthusiastic contenders for the competition to make a new God.

!!!Tropes associated with Nasse:
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: She's only focused on keeping Kakehashi content, even if it involves theft of living provisions and murder of those who have wronged him. In her eyes, doing such isn't wrong as long as it makes the person happy.
* DissonantSerenity: There's nothing that can make her smile disappear, no matter how grim the situation is.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Well, more amorality has standards, but when Metropoliman [[spoiler: [[WouldHurtAChild kills Chi]]]], she happily tells him to his face that, while she doesn’t generally care whether humans live or die, she'll be "delighted" when he does and vows to get Mirai to kill him.
* FaceDeathWithDignity: [[spoiler:God kills himself and all angels are dying. As she disappears, Nasse congratulates Muni on destroying Heaven and simply says "bye bye" with a smile.]]
* FirstNameBasis: She calls Kakehashi by his first name.
* ForHappiness: Her goal is making Mirai happy, to a point it blinds her to the human aspect of right and wrong. In fact, it's almost as if HappinessIsMandatory.
* LivingLieDetector: She's good at knowing if people are lying by just looking at them.
* PureIsNotGood: She's known for her purity, but that doesn't mean she understands human morals.
* ShipperOnDeck: Wishing for Mirai's happiness in every way possible, she suggests him using the Red Arrow (which causes the target to fall in love) on his longtime crush Saki.
* UncannyValleyGirl: Her blithe viewpoint towards keeping her charge happy at the expense of others can come off as disconcerting.

-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KikukoInoue (JP)

Kanade's special-class guardian angel. Knows as the Angel of Greed.

!!!Tropes associated with Meyza:
* AlienHair: She has feathers on her head in place of normal-looking hair, unlike other angels.
* MurderIsTheBestSolution: She shares this ideology with Kanade, agreeing with him that killing all the other God Candidates is the fastest and most direct way to make him the next God.
* {{Pride}}: Seems to be driven by the desire to pick a human who can become God and reward him so that he doesn't have to perform the lowly task of ferrying human souls anymore.

[[folder:Muni]]
!!Muni

Yoneda's special-class guardian angel. Known as the Angel of Destruction. The other angels believe Muni wants to destroy humanity, and that Muni selected a human with that purpose in mind.

!!!Tropes associated with Muni:
* BlindfoldedVision: The space where Muni's eyes would be is always covered by wings, and it's not clear if Muni even has eyes at all and is concealing them, or if there are no eyes there to cover.
* {{Gonk}}: Muni is ugly and grotesque, especially next to the other angels who range from good-looking to beautiful. To begin with, Muni has a pair of sagging breasts and a bloated stomach.
* KillTheGod: Yoneda exposits that Muni's real goal is to destroy God, the angels, and all other supernatural beings on the grounds of their being unnecessary and pointless.

!!!Tropes associated with Revel:
* AintTooProudToBeg: After seeing Saki's newfound resolve to be helpful, Revel swallows his pride and kneels down before Baret while begging her to tell him how to become a first-class angel.
* {{Bishonen}}: He has beautiful features that make him look androgynous.
* CombatPragmatist: He suggested Saki she should kill Mirai and obtain his wings and arrows. Luckily, Saki's feelings prevented that from happening.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: While occasionally brusque and a pragmatist, he cares very deeply about Saki and is always looking out for her safety.
* ManipulativeBastard: His original plan was to have Saki shoot Mirai with a red arrow and then make Mirai fight Metropoli Man for Saki's sake. That way, whether Mirai or Metropoli Man died, Saki would get the loser's wings. Revel's plan fails because Nasse intervenes.
* RankUp: [[spoiler:When he sheds a tear for Saki, he gets promoted to the first-class Angel of Emotions.]]
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: He's much more down-to-earth and tactical than the energetic Nasse.
* SwissArmyTears: [[spoiler:Revel cries over his inability to help Saki in being more useful. Then, God appears to tell Revel that by crying for a human, he has become the first angel to be capable of empathy. Revel is promoted to the first-class Angel of Emotions, which allows Revel to give Saki her own wings.]]
* WomenAreWiser: {{Inverted|Trope}}. He's down-to-earth and more understanding of human behavior than the pure and energetic Nasse who just can't grasp morals. [[spoiler:His understanding of human emotions makes God ascend him to First class and earn the moniker of Angel of Emotions.]]

* HighClassGlass: She wears a monocle on her left eye.
* KeeperOfForbiddenKnowledge: Baret used to be a special-class angel that knew very privileged information, until she got careless when sharing it, and what was private became public. Her punishment was a demotion to first-class, and the loss of her white arrow.
* RapunzelHair: She's the angel with longest hair, going past her hips.
* TheStoic: She never changes her dignified facial expression.

Hajime's first-class guardian angel. Known as the angel of Intuition, he's quite good at determining a course of action based on his feelings.

!!!Tropes associated with Balta:
* {{Bishonen}}: Like Revel, Balta is an angel with the face of a beautiful young man.
* CatchPhrase: He has the habit of saying "My instinct tells me..." when invoking his GutFeeling.
* ChessmasterSidekick: [[spoiler:He's the one who told Yuito about Metropoliman's identity, without telling Hajime about it, and that ended up leading to Kanade's death.]]
* GutFeeling: His intuition never seems to fail him, and it's in his title.
* ItAmusedMe: Decides to witness the final confrontation between Mirai and Kanade [[spoiler:even after Hajime dies]] because he sees it as amusing.

!!!Tropes associated with Ogaro:
* MercurysWings: She has a pair of wings coming out of the sides of her head.
* MrExposition: Serves as this when explaining what becoming God actually means, and what happens to the remaining candidates.
* OhCrap: There's sheer horror in her face as she makes the biggest screw up in history in the final chapter. [[spoiler:The new God, Shuji, committed suicide when she took her eyes off him for a minute. As a result, all living beings in the angel and human world die instantly.]]

[[folder:Yazeli]]
!!Yazeli
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yazeli.jpg]]

Yuri's second-class guardian angel. Known as the Angel of Truth, he tries to guide Yuri through her own immature impulses.

!!!Tropes associated with Yazeli:
* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: He functions as this when partnered with Yuri. He tries to talk her into making smart choices instead of just her usual immature and short-sighted antics.

[[folder:Luta]]

-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TakehitoKoyasu (JP)

Rodriguez's second-class guardian angel.

!!!Tropes associated with Luta:
* DeliberateUnderPerformance: Luta knew he had slim chances of winning the God Election when he can only grant his human with either red arrows or wings. Therefore, he chooses an unsuitable God Candidate who only uses his red arrows to have sex with idols and brags about it in the news. As expected, Rodriguez is almost immediately killed by Metropoli Man. This is the result Luta wanted so he could retire from the competition early.
* EyesAlwaysShut: He's never shown with his eyes open in his brief appearances.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: His name is translated as either "Luta" or "Ruta".
* UriahGambit: He lets Rodriguez use the Red Arrows to turn sexy idols into his toys, fully knowing it will attract the attention from other God Candidates. Soon enough, Rodriguez is tracked down and promptly offed by Metropoli Man, which was what Luta intended from the start, as he wanted nothing to do with the god competition and weaseled out.

!!!Tropes associated with Hoshi:

!!!Tropes associated with Yumiki:

* PetTheDog: Just barely, while he kills the God Candidates, he doesn't kill their accompanying angels. Though it's unclear if he does it out of principle, or if he's simply unable to for whatever reason and has to just settle for the arrows and wings as a comprimise.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted.]] [[spoiler: While at first glance, he seems to care for Rea, he isn't doing it because he cares about her well-being - it's because she represents his ideals. If he did, he wouldn't ''have left her to die just to make a statement about how she represents the so-called purity he wishes to unleash on society'']].

* IControlMyMinionsThrough: Besides using the power of the red arrows to control people, he also bribes some of them with money to follow his orders.

* KickTheSonOfABitch: He blows up one of his underlings, Yamada Mimimi, once [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness she's outlived her usefulness]]. It'd be horrible if she wasn't a SerialRapist and PsychoLesbian.

* LudicrousGibs: [[spoiler: The result of him getting MoreDakka'd to death by Mukaido.]]

* {{Necromantic}}: He desperately wants to become God in order to resurrect his late sister Rea as an angel.

* BrokenMasquerade: [[spoiler:He reveals the truth to the world about the God Candidates, and even decides he wants Mirai to become God.]]

* EinsteinHair: He has it.

[[folder:Yamada Mimimi]]
!!Yamada Mimimi

Yamada Mimimi, aka, Misurin, is a former model-turned-serial killer. Metropoliman breaks her out of prison and grants her the Wings and Red Arrow for his plans.

* InUniverseNickname: "Mithrin", a play on her name ("Mi-3", plus an extra "n" for cuteness).

* SecretSecretKeeper: When Kanade comes to school with a head injury the day after the news showed Metropoli Man being shoot in the head, Mizukiyo starts putting two and two together as he noticed Kanade was acting suspicious for a while. Since he knows Kanade will kill him without hesitation if he exposes his secret, Mizukiyo chooses to pretend he doesn't suspect anything.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: He jokingly answered Kanade's question that his greatest wish is for all ugly women to disappear from the world. [[TheSociopath Kanade being Kanade]] is more than willing to help.

* LastDance: Challenges Metropoliman to a duel with the four members they each have in Chapter 17 knowing that he doesn't have much longer until he dies. [[spoiler: Ultimately dies shortly after killing Kanade, with his cancer progressing too far for an emergency operation to save him in Chapter 26.]]

* CatGirl: Saki's battle outfit gives her cat ears and a tail.

* MyGreatestFailure: [[spoiler:While she was Kakehashi's friend, she didn't help him when he was bullied due to fear of being bullied herself. When they graduated middle school, she attempted to apologize only to see him attempt suicide. She attempted to drown herself due to the guilt.]]

* CombatPragmatist: He suggested Saki she should kill Mirai and obtain his wings and arrows, luckily Saki's feelings prevented that from happening.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: While occasionally brusque and a pragmatist, he cares about Saki in the same way as Nasse does for Mirai.

Classmate of Kanade Uryuu, and probably his only friend.

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: He jokingly answered Kanade's question that his greatest wish is for all ugly women to disappear from the world. [[TheSociopath Kanade being Kanade]] is more than willing to help.

* {{Bishonen}}: {{Invoked}}. He used to be very ugly but once he became a God Candidate, he stole money to get plastic surgery to be good looking.

* {{Expy}}: One of Teru Mikami. They both have obsessive respect for someone with supernatural powers, Metropoli Man and Light and have the same power as them.

* {{Gonk}}: He used to be so ugly that no one really wanted to befriend him.

* HeroWorshipper: He's a fan of Metropoli Man, believing him to the opposite of him and a hero.

* {{Bishonen}}: In comparison to the boyish Rubel, he has the features of a young adult.

* DespairEventHorizon: The angels choose humans who lost hope and the will to live as God Candidates. The reasoning for this is these humans should want to change the world.

* KillThePoor: One of his motivations.

* RichBitch: Male example. He believes he and his sister are superior to people from lower class because they were raised with the best environment and education that money can buy. Since he sees non-rich people as worthless, if he becomes God, he plans to let only the rich live and keep some of the poor alive if they can be useful as servants.

* MsFanservice: Introduced enjoying a luxury island resort with only a tower covering her.

* KillThePoor: His main motivation.

* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: He views poor people as disgusting and a drain on society, so if he becomes God, he intends to kill all the poor, except for good-looking ones who can continue to exist as a servant class.

* MsFanservice:

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: He jokingly answered Kanade's question that his greatest wish is for all ugly women to dissappear from the world. [[TheSociopath Kanade being Kanade]] is more than willing to help.

* KickTheMoralityPet: His younger sister Rea was the only person he treated kindly since he believed she was the only human being as "beautiful and perfect" as him. As soon as Rea told him she was thinking about dating a boy, though, he ''snapped'' at her and got somewhat physically aggressive. [[spoiler:Rea fell and hit her head during the struggle. And what did Kanade do instead of calling the ambulance? Let Rea die so she wouldn't be "tainted" ever again.]]

* TheSmartGuy: He used his red arrow to hit 14 detectives and psychiatrists to identify other God Candidates and he is the kind of person who approaches a strategy first.

* HiddenDepths: Sometimes makes good points about some subjects such as social networks, and have a witty exchange with Yoneda in which she clearly proves his theories are only supported by his own certitudes and not scientific approach.

* ManipulativeBastard: His original plan by having Saki shoot Mirai with the red arrow was to make Mirai fight Metropoli Man for Saki's sake. That way, whether Mirai or Metropoli Man died, Saki would get the loser's wings. Revel's plan fails because Nasse intervenes.

* AxCrazy: She's very eager, in a childish way, even, to melt and kill people with the biohazardous substances she develops.
* {{Bowdlerize}}: In the manga when Fuyuko reveals the FSV virus, she [[BattleStrip pulls her jacket off]] and leaves her large [[BodyHorror scarred]] breasts only covered by bandages for the remainder of her appearance. In the anime adaptation her corset is not topless like that, her body is less scarred and her use of drugs to get psyched up is left out as well.
* CoveredWithScars: Her shoulders, chest and abdomen are all heavily scarred.
* DressedLikeADominatrix: Purchased a nurse-themed lingerie outfit to fit in with the other two oddballs who help Metropoli Man, and is a psycho who enjoys torturing and killing people.

* MsFanservice: The obligatory scantily-clad and deadly villainess for the story.
* NotSoDifferentRemark: To Ryuji calling her a crazy junkie bitch, she remarks both of them are no different in how they want human test subjects to kill. Both are said or shown to enjoy [[BadPeopleAbuseAnimals killing animals]] as well.
* ScaryStitches: Her breasts have several stitched up scar wounds curving in all directions, and are still covered up in bandages to boot. The anime censors this by downplaying her nudity, making said scars look more like visible veins and removing the other ones on her right shoulder and midriff.

* ResignedToTheCall: He is not interested in becoming God and wants his way out of the selection after he sees Metropoli Man start killing the competition, but since giving up on being a God Candidate means he would die, he has to no choice but to continue being a God Candidate.
* ReusedCharacterDesign: He physically resembles Moritaka Mashiro from ''Manga/{{Bakuman}}''.
* {{Nephewism}}: After his parents died in an "accident" caused by his uncle, Mirai was forced to live with his abusive uncle and aunt.

* DiscOneFinalBoss: [[spoiler: Is ultimately taken out in Chapter 26 with six remaining contenders for Godhood.]]

* KickTheSonOfABitch: he blows up one of his underlings, Yamada Mimimi, once [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness she's outlived her usefulness]]. It'd be horrible if she wasn't a SerialRapist and PsychoLesbian.

!!Shogo Hatake & Saburo Tabuchi

!!!Tropes associated with Hatake and Tabuchi:

* DramaticUnmask: He wears a ridiculous-looking Donald Trump mask as a part of Metropoli Man's team, though it was edited in the 2021 anime to not look exactly like the former American president. He removes the mask once his intentions and role in Metropoli Man's downfall are revealed.

* IJustWantToHaveFriends: He spent so much time alone he unknowingly developed a suicidal desire, until he met his angel.

* HaremSeeker: He uses his red arrows on dozens of women to have sex with them.

* ALadyOnEachArm: Rodriguez is quick to use the red arrow to turn sexy idols into his toys. He's promptly offed by Metropoli Man… which was what Ruta, the angel assisting him, intended from the start, as he wanted nothing to do with the god competition and weaseled out.

* AccidentalMurder: He uses the red arrow on his aunt to make her confess the truth about his parents' death, but didn't expect that telling her she "should just die" would make her ''immediately comply'' [[BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor and commit suicide to apologise]].

* AlasPoorVillain: In the anime, the camera pans over her corpse as Mirai laments the senseless loss of life brought by Kanade's ambitions.

* AxCrazy: She's very eager to melt and kill people with the biohazardous substances she develops.

* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: She mortally wounds Hajime with her virus, but doesn't get to enjoy seeing him melting for long as he managed to stab her through the chest with his katana in return. She falls over in disbelief and perishes before he does.
