->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SaoriHayami (JP), Creator/AlexisTipton (EN)
The captain of the 'second generation' Disciplinary Squad. Yume and Karasuba were the only two members of the squad at the time she was active. Years ago, she gave her Sekirei Core to a child Musubi after the latter's core was damaged beyond repair. Yume lost her life as a result, but she "lives on" as an inactive double personality within Musubi.
'''Ashikabi:''' None
----
* ACupAngst: According to Karasuba in an omake, Musubi's BoobsOfSteel are a manifestation of Yume's will as Yume herself was only a B-cup (although Karasuba says she was an A-cup wearing breast pads).
* AffectionateNickname: Karasuba called her "Yu-chan."
* AllLovingHeroine: Pure, kind, and personally driven to free the Sekirei from their sad fate. Her greatest wish, passed on to Musubi, is that all Sekirei will learn to love.
* AnimalMotifs: Flashbacks show her with a bird on her finger.
* BadassAdorable: Cute, sweet, and the most powerful Sekirei since Miya.
* BareHandedBladeBlock: She blocked Karasuba's sword with her bare hands in their first meeting.
* BequeathedPower: She gave her Sekirei core that is both her power and life source to Musubi, resulting in Yume's death.
* BlessedWithSuck: She had a perfect core and full crest that let her reach her full potential without an Ashikabi. However, this meant she could never experience the special bonds Sekirei and Ashikabi share, something she yearned for badly.
* TheCaptain: Of the second Disciplinary Squad.
* CurbStompBattle: She effortlessly defeated Benitsubasa and Haihane after being awakened by Minato.
* DeathOfPersonality: [[spoiler:For a long time, Yume continues to exist within Musubi as they have the same Sekirei core. After Musubi's Sekirei declaration to Minato, her soul has completely merged with Yume's core, effectively ceasing Yume's existence.]]
* DodgeTheBullet: She's seen dodging multiple automatic weapons AT CLOSE RANGE in the prologue of the anime.
* ExoticEyeDesigns: When she's in control of Musubi's body, her eyes' pupils change into a yin-yang symbol.
* GirlyBruiser: She's very innocent and girly, but a physical fighter capable of going toe-to-toe with Karasuba and Miya.
* FriendlyRivalry: She saw Karasuba as terribly misguided and became her biggest rival as well as partner so Karasuba would be less lonely.
* HeroicSacrifice: She gave up her core, and therefore her own existence, to save Musubi as a child after some invaders destroyed Musubi's own core.
* HolyHandGrenade: One of her abilities.
* IdenticalStranger: Musubi grew up to look exactly like her.
* IdiotHair: She had one just like Musubi, showing her innocence.
* ImmuneToBullets: Bullets couldn't even leave a scratch on her.
* ImpliedLoveInterest: Flashbacks show Karasuba was extremely attached to Yume and took losing her very badly. It's up in the air whether Karasuba's feelings towards Yume were deep respect for a rival, companionship, or romantic love. It's notable that Karasuba thought about Yume when she heard Natsuo talk about his dead lover.
* KamehameHadoken: Her punches could release the energy of her Sekirei core, creating a blast of light. This eventually becomes Musubi's Bear Paw technique.
* KungFuJesus: A Messianic figure that was the second leader of the Disciplinary Squad.
* LightEmUp: She appears to have light-based abilities.

It's implied that Karasuba never wanted to live in a world without Yume, so she chooses to not wake up even after Musubi revives all the terminated Sekirei.
* TheLostLenore: It's heavily implied Karasuba was in love with Yume, explaining her current obsession with fighting Musubi who inherited Yume's core. Near the end of the manga, it's revealed the reason why Karasuba wanted to terminate Musubi was that she hoped Yume would come back to life.
* LoveFreak: She loved to preach about the importance of love and bonds between Sekirei and Ashikabi.
* MartialPacifist: Though the leader of the Disciplinary Squad, she despises killing because death is the ultimate destruction of bonds between people.
* MessianicArchetype: Yume was very special among Sekirei because she had both a Sekirei core and an Ashikabi core, meaning she was more powerful than winged Sekirei without need for an Ashikabi. Despite being this, all Yume tried to do was get Karasuba to understand the meaning of ThePowerOfLove. In the end, she sacrificed her physical existence to save a child Musubi who was about to die.

* ShortHairWithTail: Just like Musubi, she has a bob haircut with a tail growing from the nape.
* SuperPoweredAlterEgo: The first time she takes control of Musubi's body, Yume can almost instantly wipe the floor with Benitsubasa and Haihane when Musubi just nearly got terminated by them. However, Musubi eventually grows even more powerful than Yume because of her love for Minato so Yume doesn't need to come out ever again.
* SuperStrength: One of her abilities is her incredible physical strength.
* SympathyForTheDevil: She was the only person who never saw Karasuba as a bloodthirsty psycho. Instead, she saw her as a lonely woman who tried to fill her inner void through endless fights without understanding what she truly needed was the love and warmth found in the bonds the Sekirei form with Ashikabi.
* TakeUpMySword: She charged Musubi and Kaho with defeating Karasuba, and freeing the Sekirei to find love.
* WalkingSpoiler: There's quite a bit of white in this article.
* WorthyOpponent: She was the only Sekirei who had Karasuba's deep respect because she didn't need an Ashikabi to reach her full potential.
* YouAreNotAlone: She was released initially and thus could do whatever she wants, but stuck to Karasuba in order to invoke this trope and thus forming the second incarnation of the Disciplinary Squad.

Despite being this, all Yume tried to do was get Karasuba to understand the meaning of ThePowerOfLove. In the end, she sacrificed her physical existence to save a child Musubi who was about to die. Yume's personality remains dormant within Musubi and comes out to save the heroes in battle a couple of times. [[spoiler:In the end, Yume's consciousness is erased for good so Musubi can reach her full potential through her bond with Minato.]]
* TheRedBaron: The Sekirei of Bonds
* SharingABody: She gave her core to Musubi, and now lives on within her. [[spoiler:After Musubi's Sekirei declaration to Minato, Yume's soul vanishes from within Musubi.]]
* ShortHairWithTail: Just like Musubi, she has a bob haircut with a tail growing from the nape.
* SuperPoweredAlterEgo: The first time she takes control of Musubi's body, Yume can almost instantly wipe the floor with Benitsubasa and Haihane when Musubi just nearly got terminated by them. However, Musubi eventually grows even more powerful than Yume because of her love for Minato so Yume doesn't need to come out ever again.
* SuperStrength: One of her abilities is her incredible physical strength.
* SympathyForTheDevil: She was the only person who never saw Karasuba as a bloodthirsty psycho. Instead, she saw her as a lonely woman who tried to fill her inner void through endless fights without understanding what she truly needed was the love and warmth found in the bonds the Sekirei form with Ashikabi.
* TakeUpMySword: She charged Musubi and Kaho with defeating Karasuba, and freeing the Sekirei to find love.
* WalkingSpoiler: There's quite a bit of white in this article.
* WorthyOpponent: She was the only Sekirei who had Karasuba's deep respect because she didn't need an Ashikabi to reach her full potential.
* YouAreNotAlone: She was released initially and thus could do whatever she wants, but stuck to Karasuba in order to invoke this trope and thus forming the second incarnation of the Disciplinary Squad.
* YouAreNumberSix: #08

The eccentric chairman and founder of MBI. Hiroto has completely taken over the city with MBI in order to implement Sekirei Plan in which all Sekirei and their Ashikabi must participate.
----
* AdventurerArchaeologist: Attempting to be this, prior to discovering the Sekirei.
* AffablyEvil: Dude might be the power mad head of MBI, but dude's got style.
* BigBad: The main antagonist of the series who is behind the entire Sekirei Plan, controlling everything.
* BigEntrance: Hanging from a rope ladder, extended from an MBI helicopter. [[spoiler: ....it turns out it's ActuallyADoombot, which warns that is about to explode. Homura cannot resist the chance to KillItWithFire anyway]].
* CheshireCatGrin: Sports one often.
* TheChessmaster: The head of the Sekirei Plan, literally using everyone involved as his game pieces.
* CommonLawMarriage: He and Takami are in a complicated relationship and have two children together. Minaka is asking her to get legally married all the time, but Takami keeps refusing.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: ''The'' corrupt corporate executive of the series. He can pretty much do whatever he wants, due to his power and influence.
* CrazyPrepared: Escape hatches? Robotic messengers? An emergency escape rocket? He apparently keeps stuff around ''just in case'' he gets a chance to use them.
* DiabolicalMastermind: He always seems one step ahead of everyone else, with everything playing into his game.
* DisappearedDad: It is shown that he hasn't been in touch with his children for years or never met them to begin with. Minato doesn't even know Minaka is his father until near the end of the series because his mother told him his father was dead. Minaka has shown interest in knowing how Yukari turned out to be, but Takami doesn't want him near their kids.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He genuinely cares about Takami, and has expressed interest in being a father to Yukari and Minato, despite Takami's objections.
* EvilLaugh: He loves to do this one. Lampshaded in the anime, when his laugh tapers off to coughing when he pushes it too far.
* {{Fiction 500}}: His company is one.
* FirstLove: She was the first man Kazehana ever loved. After being rejected, Kazehana was hung up on him for 20 years until she falls for Minato.
* GameMaster: Fancies himself one.
* HybridPower: His Sekirei ancestry is what allowed him to enter and reactivate the crashed Sekirei ship.
* IGaveMyWord: He honored [[spoiler:Takehito]]'s request to not involve [[spoiler:Miya]] in the Sekirei Plan.
* ItAmusedMe: Pretty much his reason for doing anything.
* ItsAllAboutMe: He pretty much acts like a child wanting the game to go the way he wants for his own amusement and cares more about how fun it is for himself despite others dying from the cause.
* IGaveMyWord: He's an amoral scumbag to the core, but when he gives his word, he ''will'' honor it.
* LargeHam: He ''loves'' being overly dramatic and flashy, especially during his speeches.
* LaserGuidedKarma: Zig-zagged. He's still alive in the end of the series running MBI, but upon the Sekirei Plan being over, his organization is suffering from his actions, all the Sekirei are now freed, and despite Minato now working for MBI to help the Sekirei, he and Yukari have no desire to be with him or get to know him and will live forever never getting to know his own children.
* LaughablyEvil: While he's a shifty CorruptCorporateExecutive, it's hard to not get a laugh out of his hammy and trickster character.
* LawEnforcementInc: Turned MBI into this when he took control of Tokyo and all authority.
* LetNoCrisisGoToWaste: Takes full advantage of the Bridge escape to justify stricter control of the capital, claiming it to be a "terrorist attack".
* LockedIntoStrangeness: Flashbacks show that he, along with Takami, had black hair before they found the Sekirei ship.
* MadScientist: To the core. Everything he does seems to be for his own amusement and SCIENCE, with no concern for the morality of his actions.
* NiceShoes: Hidden platforms in his boots, to make him look taller.
* NonActionBigBad: He's not a fighter at all, relying on his soldiers and the Disciplinary Squad to handle all violent matters.
* OlderThanHeLooks: He looks older than most of the male characters, but not old enough to have two adult children.
* PetTheDog:
** He's willing to use MBI's resources to save the fatally ill [[spoiler:Chiho]]. He may have some [[XanatosGambit ulterior motive regardless of what happens]], but he's not all bad.
** When Takehito was willing to sacrifice himself to save the Sekirei from terminating and the civilians around, Minaka was against it but reluctanly gave in and apologized to him. Upon his last moments, he begged Minaka to not let Miya be involved in his plan, and Minaka promised him he would. True enough, Miya is never involved in his plans and has stayed away from her since then.
** He gave Natsuo Benitsubasa and Haihane as a way to help him move on from his lover's death and find TrueCompanions in the two of them.
* PrematurelyGreyHaired: He and Takami discovered something during their researches. It also gave them white hair.
* ThisPageWillSelfDestruct: A [[spoiler: life-like robot]] states this after delivering a message to the heroes. Homura takes the chance to KillItWithFire on reflex.
* WackyParentSeriousChild: He's a LargeHam who rarely acts seriously, whereas Minato is quiet, emotional and very serious.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: [[spoiler:The Sekirei Plan indeed put the Sekirei and some Ashikabi through a lot of pain, but Minaka organized it all because he truly wishes to set the Sekirei free from the Kouten's system that trapped them. In the epilogue, Minato can figure out everything Minaka did was in order to save the Sekirei.]]
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: Beneath his eccentric behavior is a ruthless individual toying with the hearts and lives of human and Sekirei alike.
* TheWonka: Eccentric, but undeniably brilliant and ruthless.

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MikiIto (JP), Creator/ShelleyCaleneBlack (EN)
The mother of Minato and Yukari, MBI's head researcher, and the person in charge of the Sekirei Plan. She often expresses disapproval over how Hiroto is going about the plan.

* BoyishShortHair: Her short hair shows her headstrong and assertive personality.
* BrutalHonesty: She's often blunt whenever she criticizes Minato for disappointing her.
* CommonLawMarriage: With Minaka. They have two children together, but live separately and Takami refuses to take his surname despite Minaka's persistent requests.
* DragonInChief: While Minaka is the titular head of MBI, she's the one who really runs the show, although she will obey his orders even when she strongly disagrees with them.
* EvilParentsWantGoodKids: Downplayed. Takami isn't evil herself, but she still serves as TheDragon to the BigBad who is also the father of her children. Through her two children's entire lives, Tamaki did her best effort to keep them away from any contact from their father so he wouldn't be a bad influence to them.
* EyeScream: A flashback shows that one of Mikogami's Sekirei, Yomi, slashed one of her eyes with a scythe while trying to kidnap Kusano, leaving her grievously wounded and traumatizing the young sekirei. While Minaka may overlook this, she does not, and the final chapters show that she is quite bitter about it. Mikogami remains completely unrepentant, only realizing that she hates him but utterly refusing to admit he was wrong.
* HotScientist: She's an attractive woman who works as a scientist for a MegaCorp.
* HyperCompetentSidekick: Minaka is her superior, but she's far more competent than he will ever be, and she knows it.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Even though she's often tough on Minato, Takami's a good-hearted mother underneath it all.
* LabcoatOfScienceAndMedicine: She wears a labcoat to show her profession as a scientist.
* LockedIntoStrangeness: Flashbacks show that she, along with Minaka, had black hair before they found the Sekirei ship.

* OlderThanTheyLook: She looks thirty at the oldest despite her oldest child being in his twenties.
* ParentalSubstitute: She's a mother figure to the Sekirei she adjusted, Musubi and Kuu among them.
* PrematurelyGreyHaired: She and Minaka discovered something during their researches. It also gave them white hair.
* ProperlyParanoid: [[spoiler:She refuses to tell her children that Minaka is their father under any circumstances. As it turns out, Minaka is the main villain in the series.]]
* ScarsAreForever: She's left with a scar down her face, after being attacked by Yomi.
* SecretRelationship: Minaka is the father of her children, and is forbidden from joining the Sahashi family or telling anyone he's their father.
* SlasherSmile: Now we know where Yukari got it.
* SmokingIsCool: She's frequently shown smoking, playing up how cool she is.
* SmokingIsGlamorous: When dressed up for a night on the town, she immediately has Homura give her a light.
* SoProudOfYou: She's genuinely proud of Minato for standing up to her. But [[spoiler:she gleefully has him arrested anyway.]]
* ToughLove: Takami is harsh towards Minato for being unable to deal with pressure, but she does it out of love.
* {{Troll}}: After Tsukiumi spent all night by Minato's hospital bed, after the Bridge incident, Takami asks Tsukiumi "shouldn't you be addressing me as 'Mother' by now?" and when Tsukiumi complies due to her extreme dedication to proper manners, Takami then turns away and proclaims she was just kidding. It took Minato restraining her to keep Tsukiumi from blasting Takami through a wall with water pressure.
* {{Tsundere}}: Harsh type towards Minaka. She's infuriated by his overall irritating character and underhanded way of doing things, but his rare human moments make it hard for her to fully hate him and they have two children for that reason.
* UnevenHybrid: Like Minaka and her children, she's a descendant of ancient Sekirei and she inherited their traits.
* WhatDoesSheSeeInHim: ''The'' biggest question is what she ever saw in a sociopath like Minaka given she gave birth to two of his children yet refuses to ever marry him or let her children near him. It is implied he wasn't as bad as before yet the whole Sekirei Plan ordeal made him get an enourmous ego in the process.
* WhenYouComingHomeDad: Minato mentions that she worked a lot, so both him and his sister didn't get to spend much time with her. When we do see her, she clearly has a lot going on since she works for MBI.
* YearsTooEarly: When Minato calls her out, she captures him and proudly tells him that he's "100 years" too early to do that.

He was the adjuster of the first generation Disciplinary Squad (Matsu, Kazehana, Karasuba, and Mutsu), Homura, Uzume, Hikari, and Hibiki. After witnessing the destructive power of the first generation, he comes to doubt the intentions of Minaka and the change of the S-Plan from scientific study to a battle royale.

* CuteAndPsycho: He could be terrifying while smiling sweetly.
* DemonHead: Like his wife, an oni's face appeared behind him when he was angry. Miya apparently ''learned'' it from him.

* SorryThatImDying: Apologized to Miya prior to dying.
* TakeUpMySword: Minato has unknowingly taken up his goals, thanks in no small part to grooming by Miya and Seo. Seo also seems to have been charged with a yet-to-be-revealed task.
* TragicDream: [[spoiler: He longed to free Miya, and all the other Sekirei as well. Since he wasn't an Ashikabi, freeing Miya was impossible for him and his death prevented him from doing more than laying the foundation for Minato.]]

[[folder:Miyajima]]
A scientist from MBI who was Tsukiumi's modifier and unofficial adoptive mother.
----
* AngerBornOfWorry: Some of Tsukiumi's most "terrifying" childhood memories are Miyajima yelling at her and punishing her after Tsukiumi did something she shouldn't like almost falling off the roof or eating sweets back when her modifications to eat human food weren't done yet. When Tsukiumi tells Minato some "scary tales" about Miyajima, all Minato takes of it is how much Miyajima loves Tsukiumi as her own child.
* TheDreaded: She's the only person Tsukiumi is absolutely terrified of.
* HairIntakes: Her hairstyle has "cat ears" similar to Tsukiumi's.
* MamaBear: When some creep tried to kidnap little Tsukiumi, Miyajima electrocuted him with MBI's stungun.

----
[[folder:General]]
* TerribleTrio: The Disciplinary Squad is formed by three Sekirei. Their job is to terminate any Sekirei who tries defying MBI or running away from the game. Kasuba is the deadliest one, while Benitsubasa and Haihane are more used for comedic moments even if they can be competent fighters.

An MBI clerk for the pharmaceutical department and Ashikabi of the Disciplinary Squad. He is a deeply cynical person, and harbors a deep hatred of the world because of the death of his lover, a military doctor. To most, he comes across as casual and unconcerned about the events taking place around him, with his true intentions known only to Karasuba.
'''Sekirei:''' Karasuba, Benitsubasa, Haihane
----
* AdaptationDyeJob: A brunette in the anime, but his [[WhiteHairBlackHeart hair is white]] in the manga.
* {{Bishonen}}: Well-dressed and very easy on the eyes.
* CoolCar: His car resembles a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrari_F430#F430_Spider Ferrari 430 Spider]]. He likes to take rides in it with Karasuba.
* DeathSeeker: There's many times where he looks pleased at finding himself in a situation where he could die and seems somewhat disappointed when he survives.
* DespairEventHorizon: His lover was a military doctor, killed in action. As a result, he's given up on the world.
* DissonantSerenity: Nothing fazes him, and he keeps smiling cheerfully whether his life is in danger or his Sekirei are brutally slaughtering their victims.
* ExcessiveMourning: The death of his lover left him "empty" inside and with no interest in forming new bonds with people. [[spoiler:Near the end of the series, he realizes the warmth of his Sekirei's love for him which he had ignored until then. He finally understands those bonds can give him a new purpose in life.]]
* FauxAffablyEvil: He seems very friendly and polite. However, it's all a cover for how utterly empty inside he is.
* {{Foil}}: To Karasuba, surprisingly enough. [[spoiler:Both lost the most important person in their lives, leaving them empty and with the sole goal of destroying the world. At the end, Natsuo learns to appreciate his bonds with his Sekirei and this makes him value life once more. In contrast, Karasuba rejects those bonds and walks down the path of self-destruction because she never wanted to care about anyone but Yume.]]
* HeelFaceTurn: Once the Sekirei Plan concludes, he, Benitsubasa, and Haihane turn good, with Natsuo striking a friendship with Minato.
* IcyBlueEyes: Completely cold and dispassionate.
* InterruptedSuicide: [[spoiler:The day he winged Karasuba, he would have thrown himself off the MBI building if Karasuba haven't asked him to help her destroy the world.]]
* ItAmusedMe: Responded to Karasuba's request to help her destroy the world was, "Sure, why not?". She describes him as a whimsical man.
* MrExposition: A source of valuable information when Minato first meets him, revealing just ''why'' attacking an Ashikabi is forbidden by the rules.
* NietzscheWannabe: He casually wonders why Minato doesn't kill him, since doing so would eliminate the Disciplinary Squad and remove much of MBI's power over the Sekirei.
* NonActionGuy: As typical of an Ashikabi, he sits back and lets his Sekirei do all the killing.
* SharpDressedMan: As befits a representative of the company.
* StepfordSmiler: A more low-key example. He seems cheerful and carefree, but he's really dead inside and just waiting for the world to end.
* TheStoic: He doesn't show much genuine emotion, unconcerned about the carnage and chaos that go on around him.
* StraightGay: He's so lacking of stereotypical homosexual traits that one would never guess Natsuo is gay unless Haihane said so.
* {{Synchronization}}: [[spoiler: Karasuba forcefully ripping out her wings really took a toll to Natsuo.]]
* TheTease: Playfully strings Benitsubasa along, giving her an AffectionateNickname and doing absolutely ''nothing'' to discourage her from being a HopelessSuitor.
* WhileRomeBurns: It doesn't matter what kind of chaos the Sekirei Plan has caused or currently causing. He remains calm and isn't bothered. He's angry at the world and no longer cares what happens to it.
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: In the manga, describing himself as "empty" and genuinely unconcerned about the horror Karasuba intends to unleash on the world. SubvertedTrope after he realizes he [[YouAreNotAlone isn't alone anymore.]]

The "Black Sekirei", and longtime member of the Disciplinary Squad. She is the primary antagonist of the series, and fully intends to destroy humanity if she claims victory. She longs for the end of the Sekirei Plan.
'''Ashikabi:''' Natsuo Ichinomiya
----
* TheAgeless: She looks the same age as other Sekirei, but was an adult when all the others were still infants and hasn't aged in nearly twenty years.
* AlasPoorVillain: [[spoiler:She falls into despair after learning Yume's soul merged with Musubi's core and dies without ever getting the chance to fight the one person she respected more than anyone. Both Musubi and Natsuo are visibly hurt by how Karasuba dies having lost her will to live.]]
* ArchEnemy: Eagerly waiting the day that she becomes this to Musubi.
* AxCrazy: Death, destruction, and suffering are her bread and butter.
* {{BFS}}: Her ''nodachi'' is nearly as long as her body.
* BigBadEnsemble: Along with Minaka and Higa, Karasuba serves as one of the main antagonists of the series.
* BloodIsTheNewBlack: Played straight, and also used for ''comedy''. She's often left splattered with blood after dealing with targets, and a side story parodies this with Musubi's flashback of a SuperDeformed Karasuba coming to tell her about the new hot springs that just opened. Arrows point to splatters of blood, noting it to be from her victims.
* BloodKnight: She lives to take on strong opponents, which is the ''only'' reason she keeps Musubi around as a MoralityPet. She's grooming her to be an opponent worthy of the Final battle.
* ByThePowerOfGrayskull: ''This is the Blade of my Pledge. Exterminate the sworn enemies of my Ashikabi!''
* CloseCallHaircut: [[spoiler: Ends up losing her long hair, when she narrowly escapes Kaho's Norito. Since she's [[CombatPragmatist pragmatic]] to the extreme, she uses her coat and lost hair as a decoy....]]
* CoatCape: She wears her grey coat this way, as did most of the original Disciplinary Squad.
* CombatSadomasochist: ''Excited'' by killing, as well as the very idea of facing opponents capable of killing her. [[spoiler: She discusses almost dying at Miya's hands as something positive, and longs to experience it again.]]
* CombatStilettos: She fights really well while wearing high-heeled boots.
* DarkActionGirl: She's a deadly swordswoman dressed in black that terrifies everyone but Musubi.
* DeathByDespair: [[spoiler:She could have been revived after her defeat, but chooses not to due to realizing Yume could not be brought back.]]
* DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler:When Musubi reveals Yume is no longer within her because her core was completed by her love for Minato, Karasuba goes off the deep end and rips off her own Sekirei wings, symbolizing how she's rejecting all connection with Ashikabi and the world. After her termination, Karasuba apparently refuses to be revived by Musubi because she lost all will to live after knowing Yume was gone for good.]]
* DodgeTheBullet: Shown to be able to dodge automatic weapon fire at close range, in both the anime's prologue and the Kamikura island flashback. She does it while wearing a full-on SlasherSmile.
* TheDreaded: She is feared by other Sekirei as a monster because of her strength and blood lust. That Musubi gets along with her shocks many.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: She openly cannot comprehend ThePowerOfLove that drives other Sekirei, and expresses disgust upon sensing positive emotions through her bond with Natsuo.
* EvilWearsBlack: She's known as "The Black Sekirei" because of the color of her clothes. She's also one of the most villainous and bloodthirsty Sekirei.
* EyesAlwaysShut: Early on, she constantly keeps her eyes closed. She opens them more often later on.
* FauxAffablyEvil: She comes across as very nice most of the time. It's probably because she's thinking about killing everyone around her.
* ForTheEvulz: She doesn't seem to have any reason for doing things other than because she loves destruction.
* FourIsDeath: And few people survive an encounter with Sekirei #04. [[spoiler:Karasuba is also the only Sekirei who stays dead even in the epilogue.]]
* HeroKiller: The only time anyone has survived facing her was either because they managed to escape, or she lost interest in them. [[spoiler: With the one exception of Miya...]]
* IcyGrayEyes: Her gray eyes signify how cold, uncaring and dangerous she is.
* IdiotHair: She has a long and prominent strand of hair sticking out atop her head.
* ImplausibleFencingPowers: She can dodge bullets at close range, slice and dice with amazing precision, and stop a full charge within a second.
* INeedYouStronger: She actively encourages Musubi to become strong enough to challenge her in the final battle.
* KatanasAreJustBetter: Her main weapon of choice is a katana.
* KickTheDog: Aside from causing needless bloodshed, she ruthlessly kills innocent Sekirei and even their Ashikabi ''just for fun''.
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:Even after the "game" is over, she is still "terminated" because she ripped out her own wings, and Musubi can't revive her even with the power of Kouten. It's implied this is Karasuba's own choice as she lost the will to live the moment she knew Yume was really gone forever.]]
* LadyOfWar: An antagonistic version of this trope. And her reason for fighting is simply "to watch the world burn". [[SarcasmMode Classy...]]
* LimitBreak: Mei no Tachi - Kuon (Blade of the Underworld - Eternal Rage). [[spoiler: Her Norito is revealed to actually be quite weak, due to lacking any emotional bond with her Ashikabi.]]
* MasterSwordswoman: She's an incredibly skilled swordswoman.
* MinidressOfPower: Her uniform as a member of a Disciplinary Squad is a black mini dress.
* MurderBySuicide: She goaded [[spoiler:Takehito into making his HeroicSacrifice, by asking if he intended to abandon the Sekirei. He took the bait]].
* {{Necromantic}}: [[spoiler:Her true goal is terminating Musubi in hopes that will bring Yume out of her core and Yume will take full control of Musubi's body. However, in their final fight, Musubi reveals Yume's personality is no longer within her after the complete fusion of her cores. Karasuba doesn't take it well...]]
* OlderThanSheLooks: She looked the same as she does now twenty years ago.
* OmnicidalManiac: She wants to watch the world burn.
* OneWomanArmy: Once left a pile of corpses for Yume to see, after slaughtering human soldiers.
* OnlyMostlyDead: Subverted, sort of. [[spoiler:At the end of the series, she's technically not dead, just in suspended animation like any other Sekirei that stops functioning. However, she's the only one who doesn't wake up after Musubi revives all terminated Sekirei as she lost all hope of getting Yume back.]]
* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: In the past, her one goal in life was defeating her partner and rival Yume. [[spoiler:She was distraught when Yume sacrificed her life to save Musubi before she ever came close to surpassing her.]] In the present day, the feeling has been passed on to Musubi, reminding her to not let anyone take her out of the game before she terminates her herself.
* PetTheDog: After her final defeat by Musubi, and being comforted by Natsuo despite earlier cruelly ridiculing him, Karasuba finally relents and realizes how much Natsuo and the other squad members mean to her. She apologizes to Natsuo and admits he really means a lot to her.
* PsychoForHire: The one reason why she's still on the Disciplinary Squad is because the job gives her the chance to cut people up.
* PsychoLesbian: Obsessed with Yume, and by extension, Musubi. Further hinted at, when Natsuo talks about his deceased lover. His comments about "hating the world where the person he [[TheLostLenore loves]] no longer exists" makes her think of Yume.
* RedBaron: The Black Sekirei.
* TheRival: To Musubi (or more accurately, to Yume).
* {{Sadist}}: She loves killing.
* ScarsAreForever: Hints at the existence of a scar left from [[spoiler: when she almost died at Miya's hands.]]
* SingleStrokeBattle: Dishes these out like ''candy''. [[spoiler: She was once on the receiving end of one thanks to Miya, who did it with her BARE HANDS. Karasuba recalls it fondly and wants to experience that "fear and pain" again.]]
* SingleTargetSexuality: [[spoiler:It's implied that Karasuba could never react to an Ashikabi because the only person she ever wanted to be bonded with was Yume.]]
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: A same-sex example. [[spoiler:It's heavily implied that she doesn't love Yume because of her [[InLoveWithYourCarnage immense power]] but for her idealism.]]
* SlasherSmile: When she gets worked up.
* TheSocialDarwinist: Her hatred of humans is based on them being [[PunyEarthlings "weak"]]. Similarly, she once tried to kill Kaho as a small child, because she considers weak Sekirei useless.
* SuperPrototype: She's one of the first five Sekirei models and one of the most powerful due to the special adjustments given to her by Takehito.
* TomboyishPonytail: She's a powerful DarkActionGirl who ties her hair back in a ponytail.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: She seems to be incredibly fond of apples. At one point, she brings a basket of them to Musubi and offers her one with a creepy smile.
* VillainRespect: After Kaho gave her a tough fight, where even after using her Norito, she had to turn to fighting dirty to win, she stops, looks upon Kaho and promises to never forget her name again. Now remember that the reason she forgot Kaho in the first place, is that she considered Kaho a pathetic weakling for not being able to protect herself from armed soldiers as a small child.
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: Her hair is light gray to identify her as a main villain.
* WorthyOpponent: She respected Yume as the strongest and greatest Sekirei she wanted to surpass no matter what. She wants to fight Musubi for this very reason since she posseses Yume's core.
* WouldHurtAChild: She threatened Musubi and Kaho when both were small children.
* YouAreNumberSix: #04
* YouShouldHaveDiedInstead: [[spoiler: She really lost it when Yume sacrificed her core to save Musubi, in which Karasuba blames the latter upon the former's death. She seems alright around Musubi during the series because she knows Yume still lives as a dormant personality inside Musubi. That's until their final match in which Karasuba learns Yume's personality has disappeared forever as a result of assimilation between Musubi's and Yume's cores after Musubi's Sekirei declaration to Minato. Karasuba then goes into a murderous rage, blaming Musubi and Minato for "killing" Yume.]]

* YouAreNotAlone: [[spoiler: She declares that she will ''never'' allow Natsuo to die, making him realize the true purpose of her being assigned as his Sekirei was to show him this and help him find the will to go on living]].

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MitsukiSaiga (JP), Creator/ClarineHarp (EN)
Known by the title of the "Blue Sekirei". She is far more laidback than Benitsubasa, and takes any opportunity to mock her over her various shortcomings. Her weapon is a pair of clawed gauntlets, and her body is covered in scars from injuring herself on multiple occasions. Unlike her partner, she is an intelligent and level-headed fighter....as well as completely aware of their Ashikabi's sexuality.

* CoveredWithScars: Under all those bandages, she has scars all over her body.
* CreepyShadowedUndereyes: Usually shadowed further by her hair.
* DeadpanSnarker: A fountain of snark, especially concerning Benitsubasa.
* EvilCounterpart: To Tsukiumi - though they both fight with bladed weapons, Haihane's level-headedness and underhanded tactics form a stark contrast to Tsukiumi's temper and chivalry.
* HighPressureBlood: Whenever she's injured.
* HeelFaceTurn: Once the Sekirei Plan concludes, she, Benitsubasa, and Natsuo turn good.
* IronicFear: Afraid of heights. When questioned by Benitsubasa, she claims to only remember her phobia when not fighting.
* NoodleIncident: We never find out how she obtained the extensive scars all across her body.
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Her beady and tired-looking eyes make her stand out when alongside the other Sekirei, and cause her to look creepy and ([[HollywoodHomely comparatively]]) less attractive.
* OnlySaneWoman: In spite of her creepiness, she is actually the most emotionally stable and sensible of Natsuo's Sekirei.

* PerkyGoth: Though creepy looking, she's actually laid back and comical.

The eccentric chairman and founder of MBI. Hiroto has completely taken over the city with MBI in order to implement Sekirei Plan in which all Sekirei and their Ashikabi must participate.
----
* AdventurerArchaeologist: Attempting to be this, prior to discovering the Sekirei.
* AffablyEvil: Dude might be the power mad head of MBI, but dude's got style.
* BigBad: The main antagonist of the series who is behind the entire Sekirei Plan, controlling everything.
* BigEntrance: Hanging from a rope ladder, extended from an MBI helicopter. [[spoiler: ....it turns out it's ActuallyADoombot, which warns that is about to explode. Homura cannot resist the chance to KillItWithFire anyway]].
* CheshireCatGrin: Sports one often.
* TheChessmaster: The head of the Sekirei Plan, literally using everyone involved as his game pieces.
* CommonLawMarriage: He and Takami are in a complicated relationship and have two children together. Minaka is asking her to get legally married all the time, but Takami keeps refusing.
* CorruptCorporateExecutive: ''The'' corrupt corporate executive of the series. He can pretty much do whatever he wants, due to his power and influence.
* CrazyPrepared: Escape hatches? Robotic messengers? An emergency escape rocket? He apparently keeps stuff around ''just in case'' he gets a chance to use them.
* DiabolicalMastermind: He always seems one step ahead of everyone else, with everything playing into his game.
* DisappearedDad: It is shown that he hasn't been in touch with his children for years or never met them to begin with. Minato doesn't even know Minaka is his father until near the end of the series because his mother told him his father was dead. Minaka has shown interest in knowing how Yukari turned out to be, but Takami doesn't want him near their kids.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He genuinely cares about Takami, and has expressed interest in being a father to Yukari and Minato, despite Takami's objections.
* EvilLaugh: He loves to do this one. Lampshaded in the anime, when his laugh tapers off to coughing when he pushes it too far.
* {{Fiction 500}}: His company is one.
* FirstLove: She was the first man Kazehana ever loved. After being rejected, Kazehana was hung up on him for 20 years until she falls for Minato.
* GameMaster: Fancies himself one.
* HybridPower: His Sekirei ancestry is what allowed him to enter and reactivate the crashed Sekirei ship.
* IGaveMyWord: He honored [[spoiler:Takehito]]'s request to not involve [[spoiler:Miya]] in the Sekirei Plan.
* ItAmusedMe: Pretty much his reason for doing anything.
* ItsAllAboutMe: He pretty much acts like a child wanting the game to go the way he wants for his own amusement and cares more about how fun it is for himself despite others dying from the cause.
* IGaveMyWord: He's an amoral scumbag to the core, but when he gives his word, he ''will'' honor it.
* LargeHam: He ''loves'' being overly dramatic and flashy, especially during his speeches.
* LaserGuidedKarma: Zig-zagged. He's still alive in the end of the series running MBI, but upon the Sekirei Plan being over, his organization is suffering from his actions, all the Sekirei are now freed, and despite Minato now working for MBI to help the Sekirei, he and Yukari have no desire to be with him or get to know him and will live forever never getting to know his own children.
* LaughablyEvil: While he's a shifty CorruptCorporateExecutive, it's hard to not get a laugh out of his hammy and trickster character.
* LawEnforcementInc: Turned MBI into this when he took control of Tokyo and all authority.
* LetNoCrisisGoToWaste: Takes full advantage of the Bridge escape to justify stricter control of the capital, claiming it to be a "terrorist attack".
* LockedIntoStrangeness: Flashbacks show that he, along with Takami, had black hair before they found the Sekirei ship.
* MadScientist: To the core. Everything he does seems to be for his own amusement and SCIENCE, with no concern for the morality of his actions.
* NiceShoes: Hidden platforms in his boots, to make him look taller.
* NonActionBigBad: He's not a fighter at all, relying on his soldiers and the Disciplinary Squad to handle all violent matters.
* OlderThanHeLooks: He looks older than most of the male characters, but not old enough to have two adult children.
* PetTheDog:
** He's willing to use MBI's resources to save the fatally ill [[spoiler:Chiho]]. He may have some [[XanatosGambit ulterior motive regardless of what happens]], but he's not all bad.
** When Takehito was willing to sacrifice himself to save the Sekirei from terminating and the civilians around, Minaka was against it but reluctanly gave in and apologized to him. Upon his last moments, he begged Minaka to not let Miya be involved in his plan, and Minaka promised him he would. True enough, Miya is never involved in his plans and has stayed away from her since then.
** He gave Natsuo Benitsubasa and Haihane as a way to help him move on from his lover's death and find TrueCompanions in the two of them.
* PrematurelyGreyHaired: He and Takami discovered something during their researches. It also gave them white hair.
* ThisPageWillSelfDestruct: A [[spoiler: life-like robot]] states this after delivering a message to the heroes. Homura takes the chance to KillItWithFire on reflex.
* WackyParentSeriousChild: He's a LargeHam who rarely acts seriously, whereas Minato is quiet, emotional and very serious.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: [[spoiler:The Sekirei Plan indeed put the Sekirei and some Ashikabi through a lot of pain, but Minaka organized it all because he truly wishes to set the Sekirei free from the Kouten's system that trapped them. In the epilogue, Minato can figure out everything Minaka did was in order to save the Sekirei.]]
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: Beneath his eccentric behavior is a ruthless individual toying with the hearts and lives of human and Sekirei alike.
* TheWonka: Eccentric, but undeniably brilliant and ruthless.

The mother of Minato and Yukari, MBI's head researcher, and the person in charge of the Sekirei Plan. She often expresses disapproval over how Hiroto is going about the plan.
----

* BoyishShortHair: Her short hair shows her headstrong and assertive personality.
* BrutalHonesty: She's often blunt whenever she criticizes Minato for disappointing her.
* CommonLawMarriage: With Minaka. They have two children together, but live separately and Takami refuses to take his surname despite Minaka's persistent requests.
* DragonInChief: While Minaka is the titular head of MBI, she's the one who really runs the show, although she will obey his orders even when she strongly disagrees with them.
* EvilParentsWantGoodKids: Downplayed. Takami isn't evil herself, but she still serves as TheDragon to the BigBad who is also the father of her children. Through her two children's entire lives, Tamaki did her best effort to keep them away from any contact from their father so he wouldn't be a bad influence to them.
* EyeScream: A flashback shows that one of Mikogami's Sekirei, Yomi, slashed one of her eyes with a scythe while trying to kidnap Kusano, leaving her grievously wounded and traumatizing the young sekirei. While Minaka may overlook this, she does not, and the final chapters show that she is quite bitter about it. Mikogami remains completely unrepentant, only realizing that she hates him but utterly refusing to admit he was wrong.
* HotScientist: She's an attractive woman who works as a scientist for a MegaCorp.
* HyperCompetentSidekick: Minaka is her superior, but she's far more competent than he will ever be, and she knows it.

* LabcoatOfScienceAndMedicine: She wears a labcoat to show her profession as a scientist.

* PrematurelyGreyHaired: She and Minaka discovered something during their researches. It also gave them white hair.

* SecretRelationship: Minaka is the father of her children, and is forbidden from joining the Sahashi family or telling anyone he's their father.
* SlasherSmile: Now we know where Yukari got it.
* SmokingIsCool: She's frequently shown smoking, playing up how cool she is.
* SmokingIsGlamorous: When dressed up for a night on the town, she immediately has Homura give her a light.
* SoProudOfYou: She's genuinely proud of Minato for standing up to her. But [[spoiler:she gleefully has him arrested anyway.]]
* ToughLove: Takami is harsh towards Minato for being unable to deal with pressure, but she does it out of love.
* {{Troll}}: After Tsukiumi spent all night by Minato's hospital bed, after the Bridge incident, Takami asks Tsukiumi "shouldn't you be addressing me as 'Mother' by now?" and when Tsukiumi complies due to her extreme dedication to proper manners, Takami then turns away and proclaims she was just kidding. It took Minato restraining her to keep Tsukiumi from blasting Takami through a wall with water pressure.
* {{Tsundere}}: Harsh type towards Minaka. She's infuriated by his overall irritating character and underhanded way of doing things, but his rare human moments make it hard for her to fully hate him and they have two children for that reason.
* UnevenHybrid: Like Minaka and her children, she's a descendant of ancient Sekirei and she inherited their traits.
* WhatDoesSheSeeInHim: ''The'' biggest question is what she ever saw in a sociopath like Minaka given she gave birth to two of his children yet refuses to ever marry him or let her children near him. It is implied he wasn't as bad as before yet the whole Sekirei Plan ordeal made him get an enourmous ego in the process.
* WhenYouComingHomeDad: Minato mentions that she worked a lot, so both him and his sister didn't get to spend much time with her. When we do see her, she clearly has a lot going on since she works for MBI.
* YearsTooEarly: When Minato calls her out, she captures him and proudly tells him that he's "100 years" too early to do that.

* SorryThatImDying: Apologized to Miya prior to dying.
* TakeUpMySword: Minato has unknowingly taken up his goals, thanks in no small part to grooming by Miya and Seo. Seo also seems to have been charged with a yet-to-be-revealed task.
* TragicDream: [[spoiler: He longed to free Miya, and all the other Sekirei as well. Since he wasn't an Ashikabi, freeing Miya was impossible for him and his death prevented him from doing more than laying the foundation for Minato.]]

When Tsukiumi tells Minato some "scary tales" about Miyajima, all Minato takes of it is how much Miyajima loves Tsukiumi as her own child.
* TheDreaded: She's the only person Tsukiumi is absolutely terrified of.

* FauxAffablyEvil: He seems very friendly and polite. However, it's all a cover for how utterly empty inside he is.
* {{Foil}}: To Karasuba, surprisingly enough. [[spoiler:Both lost the most important person in their lives, leaving them empty and with the sole goal of destroying the world. At the end, Natsuo learns to appreciate his bonds with his Sekirei and this makes him value life once more. In contrast, Karasuba rejects those bonds and walks down the path of self-destruction because she never wanted to care about anyone but Yume.]]

* ItAmusedMe: Responded to Karasuba's request to help her destroy the world was, "Sure, why not?". She describes him as a whimsical man.
* MrExposition: A source of valuable information when Minato first meets him, revealing just ''why'' attacking an Ashikabi is forbidden by the rules.
* NietzscheWannabe: He casually wonders why Minato doesn't kill him, since doing so would eliminate the Disciplinary Squad and remove much of MBI's power over the Sekirei.
* NonActionGuy: As typical of an Ashikabi, he sits back and lets his Sekirei do all the killing.
* SharpDressedMan: As befits a representative of the company.
* StepfordSmiler: A more low-key example. He seems cheerful and carefree, but he's really dead inside and just waiting for the world to end.
* TheStoic: He doesn't show much genuine emotion, unconcerned about the carnage and chaos that go on around him.
* StraightGay: He's so lacking of stereotypical homosexual traits that one would never guess Natsuo is gay unless Haihane said so.
* {{Synchronization}}: [[spoiler: Karasuba forcefully ripping out her wings really took a toll to Natsuo.]]
* TheTease: Playfully strings Benitsubasa along, giving her an AffectionateNickname and doing absolutely ''nothing'' to discourage her from being a HopelessSuitor.
* WhileRomeBurns: It doesn't matter what kind of chaos the Sekirei Plan has caused or currently causing. He remains calm and isn't bothered. He's angry at the world and no longer cares what happens to it.
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: In the manga, describing himself as "empty" and genuinely unconcerned about the horror Karasuba intends to unleash on the world. SubvertedTrope after he realizes he [[YouAreNotAlone isn't alone anymore.]]

* WorthLivingFor: [[spoiler:Natsuo had lost any will to live after the death of his lover. When he realizes how much Benitsubasa and Haihane love him and want to live alongside him, Natsuo decides to live and be happy with his Sekirei.]]
* YouAreNotAlone: [[spoiler: He comes to realize this was the purpose behind Minaka assigning Benitsubasa and Haihane to him, providing him with two Sekirei that would eventually help push him past his despair]].

[[quoteright:150:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/karasuba_4292.jpg]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RomiPark (JP), Creator/ChristineAuten (EN)
The "Black Sekirei", and longtime member of the Disciplinary Squad. She is the primary antagonist of the series, and fully intends to destroy humanity if she claims victory. She longs for the end of the Sekirei Plan.
'''Ashikabi:''' Natsuo Ichinomiya
----
* TheAgeless: She looks the same age as other Sekirei, but was an adult when all the others were still infants and hasn't aged in nearly twenty years.
* AlasPoorVillain: [[spoiler:She falls into despair after learning Yume's soul merged with Musubi's core and dies without ever getting the chance to fight the one person she respected more than anyone. Both Musubi and Natsuo are visibly hurt by how Karasuba dies having lost her will to live.]]
* ArchEnemy: Eagerly waiting the day that she becomes this to Musubi.
* AxCrazy: Death, destruction, and suffering are her bread and butter.
* {{BFS}}: Her ''nodachi'' is nearly as long as her body.
* BigBadEnsemble: Along with Minaka and Higa, Karasuba serves as one of the main antagonists of the series.
* BloodIsTheNewBlack: Played straight, and also used for ''comedy''. She's often left splattered with blood after dealing with targets, and a side story parodies this with Musubi's flashback of a SuperDeformed Karasuba coming to tell her about the new hot springs that just opened. Arrows point to splatters of blood, noting it to be from her victims.
* BloodKnight: She lives to take on strong opponents, which is the ''only'' reason she keeps Musubi around as a MoralityPet. She's grooming her to be an opponent worthy of the Final battle.
* ByThePowerOfGrayskull: ''This is the Blade of my Pledge. Exterminate the sworn enemies of my Ashikabi!''
* CloseCallHaircut: [[spoiler: Ends up losing her long hair, when she narrowly escapes Kaho's Norito. Since she's [[CombatPragmatist pragmatic]] to the extreme, she uses her coat and lost hair as a decoy....]]
* CoatCape: She wears her grey coat this way, as did most of the original Disciplinary Squad.
* CombatSadomasochist: ''Excited'' by killing, as well as the very idea of facing opponents capable of killing her. [[spoiler: She discusses almost dying at Miya's hands as something positive, and longs to experience it again.]]
* CombatStilettos: She fights really well while wearing high-heeled boots.
* DarkActionGirl: She's a deadly swordswoman dressed in black that terrifies everyone but Musubi.
* DeathByDespair: [[spoiler:She could have been revived after her defeat, but chooses not to due to realizing Yume could not be brought back.]]
* DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler:When Musubi reveals Yume is no longer within her because her core was completed by her love for Minato, Karasuba goes off the deep end and rips off her own Sekirei wings, symbolizing how she's rejecting all connection with Ashikabi and the world. After her termination, Karasuba apparently refuses to be revived by Musubi because she lost all will to live after knowing Yume was gone for good.]]
* DodgeTheBullet: Shown to be able to dodge automatic weapon fire at close range, in both the anime's prologue and the Kamikura island flashback. She does it while wearing a full-on SlasherSmile.
* TheDreaded: She is feared by other Sekirei as a monster because of her strength and blood lust. That Musubi gets along with her shocks many.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: She openly cannot comprehend ThePowerOfLove that drives other Sekirei, and expresses disgust upon sensing positive emotions through her bond with Natsuo.
* EvilWearsBlack: She's known as "The Black Sekirei" because of the color of her clothes. She's also one of the most villainous and bloodthirsty Sekirei.
* EyesAlwaysShut: Early on, she constantly keeps her eyes closed. She opens them more often later on.
* FauxAffablyEvil: She comes across as very nice most of the time. It's probably because she's thinking about killing everyone around her.
* ForTheEvulz: She doesn't seem to have any reason for doing things other than because she loves destruction.
* FourIsDeath: And few people survive an encounter with Sekirei #04. [[spoiler:Karasuba is also the only Sekirei who stays dead even in the epilogue.]]
* HeroKiller: The only time anyone has survived facing her was either because they managed to escape, or she lost interest in them. [[spoiler: With the one exception of Miya...]]
* IcyGrayEyes: Her gray eyes signify how cold, uncaring and dangerous she is.
* IdiotHair: She has a long and prominent strand of hair sticking out atop her head.
* ImplausibleFencingPowers: She can dodge bullets at close range, slice and dice with amazing precision, and stop a full charge within a second.
* INeedYouStronger: She actively encourages Musubi to become strong enough to challenge her in the final battle.
* KatanasAreJustBetter: Her main weapon of choice is a katana.
* KickTheDog: Aside from causing needless bloodshed, she ruthlessly kills innocent Sekirei and even their Ashikabi ''just for fun''.
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:Even after the "game" is over, she is still "terminated" because she ripped out her own wings, and Musubi can't revive her even with the power of Kouten. It's implied this is Karasuba's own choice as she lost the will to live the moment she knew Yume was really gone forever.]]
* LadyOfWar: An antagonistic version of this trope. And her reason for fighting is simply "to watch the world burn". [[SarcasmMode Classy...]]
* LimitBreak: Mei no Tachi - Kuon (Blade of the Underworld - Eternal Rage). [[spoiler: Her Norito is revealed to actually be quite weak, due to lacking any emotional bond with her Ashikabi.]]
* MasterSwordswoman: She's an incredibly skilled swordswoman.
* MinidressOfPower: Her uniform as a member of a Disciplinary Squad is a black mini dress.
* MurderBySuicide: She goaded [[spoiler:Takehito into making his HeroicSacrifice, by asking if he intended to abandon the Sekirei. He took the bait]].
* {{Necromantic}}: [[spoiler:Her true goal is terminating Musubi in hopes that will bring Yume out of her core and Yume will take full control of Musubi's body. However, in their final fight, Musubi reveals Yume's personality is no longer within her after the complete fusion of her cores. Karasuba doesn't take it well...]]
* OlderThanSheLooks: She looked the same as she does now twenty years ago.
* OmnicidalManiac: She wants to watch the world burn.
* OneWomanArmy: Once left a pile of corpses for Yume to see, after slaughtering human soldiers.
* OnlyMostlyDead: Subverted, sort of. [[spoiler:At the end of the series, she's technically not dead, just in suspended animation like any other Sekirei that stops functioning. However, she's the only one who doesn't wake up after Musubi revives all terminated Sekirei as she lost all hope of getting Yume back.]]
* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: In the past, her one goal in life was defeating her partner and rival Yume. [[spoiler:She was distraught when Yume sacrificed her life to save Musubi before she ever came close to surpassing her.]] In the present day, the feeling has been passed on to Musubi, reminding her to not let anyone take her out of the game before she terminates her herself.
* PetTheDog: After her final defeat by Musubi, and being comforted by Natsuo despite earlier cruelly ridiculing him, Karasuba finally relents and realizes how much Natsuo and the other squad members mean to her. She apologizes to Natsuo and admits he really means a lot to her.
* PsychoForHire: The one reason why she's still on the Disciplinary Squad is because the job gives her the chance to cut people up.
* PsychoLesbian: Obsessed with Yume, and by extension, Musubi. Further hinted at, when Natsuo talks about his deceased lover. His comments about "hating the world where the person he [[TheLostLenore loves]] no longer exists" makes her think of Yume.
* RedBaron: The Black Sekirei.
* TheRival: To Musubi (or more accurately, to Yume).
* {{Sadist}}: She loves killing.
* ScarsAreForever: Hints at the existence of a scar left from [[spoiler: when she almost died at Miya's hands.]]
* SingleStrokeBattle: Dishes these out like ''candy''. [[spoiler: She was once on the receiving end of one thanks to Miya, who did it with her BARE HANDS. Karasuba recalls it fondly and wants to experience that "fear and pain" again.]]
* SingleTargetSexuality: [[spoiler:It's implied that Karasuba could never react to an Ashikabi because the only person she ever wanted to be bonded with was Yume.]]
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: A same-sex example. [[spoiler:It's heavily implied that she doesn't love Yume because of her [[InLoveWithYourCarnage immense power]] but for her idealism.]]
* SlasherSmile: When she gets worked up.
* TheSocialDarwinist: Her hatred of humans is based on them being [[PunyEarthlings "weak"]]. Similarly, she once tried to kill Kaho as a small child, because she considers weak Sekirei useless.
* SuperPrototype: She's one of the first five Sekirei models and one of the most powerful due to the special adjustments given to her by Takehito.
* TomboyishPonytail: She's a powerful DarkActionGirl who ties her hair back in a ponytail.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: She seems to be incredibly fond of apples. At one point, she brings a basket of them to Musubi and offers her one with a creepy smile.
* VillainRespect: After Kaho gave her a tough fight, where even after using her Norito, she had to turn to fighting dirty to win, she stops, looks upon Kaho and promises to never forget her name again. Now remember that the reason she forgot Kaho in the first place, is that she considered Kaho a pathetic weakling for not being able to protect herself from armed soldiers as a small child.
* WhiteHairBlackHeart: Her hair is light gray to identify her as a main villain.
* WorthyOpponent: She respected Yume as the strongest and greatest Sekirei she wanted to surpass no matter what. She wants to fight Musubi for this very reason since she posseses Yume's core.
* WouldHurtAChild: She threatened Musubi and Kaho when both were small children.
* YouAreNumberSix: #04
* YouShouldHaveDiedInstead: [[spoiler: She really lost it when Yume sacrificed her core to save Musubi, in which Karasuba blames the latter upon the former's death. She seems alright around Musubi during the series because she knows Yume still lives as a dormant personality inside Musubi. That's until their final match in which Karasuba learns Yume's personality has disappeared forever as a result of assimilation between Musubi's and Yume's cores after Musubi's Sekirei declaration to Minato. Karasuba then goes into a murderous rage, blaming Musubi and Minato for "killing" Yume.]]

Known by the title of the "Red Sekirei". She has a vicious temper, as well as serious insecurities about her figure, and enjoys causing pain to her opponents.

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MitsukiSaiga (JP), Creator/ClarineHarp (EN)
Known by the title of the "Blue Sekirei". She is far more laidback than Benitsubasa, and takes any opportunity to mock her over her various shortcomings. Her weapon is a pair of clawed gauntlets, and her body is covered in scars from injuring herself on multiple occasions. Unlike her partner, she is an intelligent and level-headed fighter....as well as completely aware of their Ashikabi's sexuality.

* CreepyShadowedUndereyes: Usually shadowed further by her hair.
* DeadpanSnarker: A fountain of snark, especially concerning Benitsubasa.

* HighPressureBlood: Whenever she's injured.
* HeelFaceTurn: Once the Sekirei Plan concludes, she, Benitsubasa, and Natsuo turn good.
* IronicFear: Afraid of heights. When questioned by Benitsubasa, she claims to only remember her phobia when not fighting.
* NoodleIncident: We never find out how she obtained the extensive scars all across her body.
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Her beady and tired-looking eyes make her stand out when alongside the other Sekirei, and cause her to look creepy and ([[HollywoodHomely comparatively]]) less attractive.
