!Main Duo
!!Tsuyoshi
* AmnesiacHero
* BewareTheQuietOnes: [[spoiler: According to Kengo, this is the reason why he was sent to Shibuya. Tsuyoshi was an introverted boy but earned a bad reputation by suffering from BloodKnight tendencies that made him withdraw from society.]]
* {{Bishonen}}: A justified example, comes with being portrayed by an androgynous actress.
* DarkIsNotEvil: In direct contrast to Ema's choice for clothing, Tsuyoshi is always seen wearing a black jacket, and he's undoubtedly the hero of the story.
* DeadpanSnarker: Has his moments.
-->'''Tsuyoshi''': How lame. Giving up before trying is the most lame thing. Did you learn that in school?
* FragileSpeedster: His combat style focuses on carefully defending himself and dodging attacks to hit the weak spots of his opponents.
* MeaningfulName: His name means "strong-willed" and oh boy, is he determined to leave Shibuya by any means necessary.
* PintSizedPowerhouse: Tsuyoshi is significantly shorter than the rest of the cast, but that doesn't stop him from going mano-a-mano with the local gang members.
* TomatoInTheMirror: [[spoiler: He's actually the reincarnation of Revu, the mysterious individual who wrote the message that instructed him to escape Shibuya in the first place.]]
* {{Ubermensch}}: Tsuyoshi ''refuses'' to obey the oppressive rules of Shibuya and wholeheartedly believes that the Shibuya 15 should have the freedom to control their own lives.
!!Ema
* ActionGirl: With a combination of sheer skill and the powers granted by her armor, Ema is easily one of the best fighters in Shibuya and the only one who's able to handle Piece.
* ArmCannon: Her armor is upgraded with one of these in the final arc of the show.
* CombatPragmatist: She ''will'' use every ability and weapon at her disposal to win a fight against Piece.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: [[spoiler: Losing her only friend and then her LoveInterest to Piece is only the tip of the iceberg. Ema's original self in the real world was a sociopathic murderer whose heinous crime gave the authorities a reason to "treat" delinquents with the virtual Shibuya. Oh, and she was accidentally left comatose for the rest of her life.]]
* DefrostingIceQueen: Her horrible experiences in Shibuya led to Ema giving up on making friends and isolating herself from others until [[spoiler: Revu]] came along to warm her heart.
* ExperiencedProtagonist: She's been dealing with the gangs of Shibuya and Piece for quite sometime.
* HenshinHero
* ItsPersonal: [[spoiler: Ema ''hates'' Peace for murdering her loved ones, going out of her way to seek and destroy him if given the chance.]]
* LightIsGood: Ema is associated with white and purity; if her unique snowy jacket wasn't enough, her own armor gives her the appearance of an angel.
* LightningBruiser: She's just as fast as Tsuyoshi and has a PoweredArmor to boot. That being said, fighting multiple opponents at the same time without her armor will [[RealityEnsues inevitably result in her losing]].
* StrawNihilist: The authoritarian and unforgiving reality of Shibuya made her develop this mindset, she got better thanks to [[spoiler: Revu]].
* WeUsedToBeFriends: [[spoiler: Ema was close with one of Asagi's past incarnations before she was eventually killed by Piece and came back as a different person.]]
!Palhands
!!Ryuugo
* AmbiguouslyBi: He dates Miu for a short period of time but was previously seen checking out DJ's... organ and touching his face in a public toilet, much to the latter's discomfort.
* AmbiguousDisorder: Ryuugo's ruthlessness, fits of laughter and exaggerated facial expressions indicate that there's something really, really wrong with him.
* BigBadWannabe: He's certainly a vicious bastard and the head of the what appears to be a growing gangdom, but at the end of the day he's still one of the Shibuya 15.
* ChainPain: His weapon of choice.
* TheQuisling: [[spoiler: Ryuugo is in contact with the overseer of Shibuya, working for him is what gave Ryuugo and the Palhands the advantage that was needed to overpower the other gangs.]]
* SmugSnake

!!Miu
* CuteAndPsycho
* ElegantGothicLolita: Her preference for dark and gothic clothing goes hand-in-hand with the Palhands despite looking out of place.

* EvilDoppelganger: [[spoiler: Miu is the evil reincarnation and polar opposite of her predecessor, Asagi.]]
* ForTheEvulz: Miu doesn't seem to care for long-term plans, sowing discord for fun and watching fights is the only thing that she does.
* GenkiGirl: The ''most'' energetic, quirky and hyperactive character of the show, surpassing even her boyfriend, which is saying something.
* HateSink: Moreso than Ryuugo himself; Miu is sadistic, manipulative and most of all, cruel to not only her enemies but also her own gang.
* InLoveWithYourCarnage: Miu is the ''only'' gang member who likes watching Piece doing what he does best.
* TheStarscream: She's Ryuugo's second-in-command and her sense of loyalty is... doubtful, to say the least.

* DanceBattler: The members of Bunkamu incorporate break dancing into their fighting style.
