[[folder:[=SpongeBob SquarePants=]]]
->Voiced by: Shiki (Japanese), [[https://twitter.com/WileyTheKoyote Wiley Koyote]] (English)
Our protagonist, the top fry cook of the Krusty Krab and Mr. Krabs' ace.
----
* BerserkerTears: Sheds these upon seeing Patrick's death and becoming enraged after he realizes Squidward is responsible.
* CallingTheOldManOut: In the first episode he calls Mr. Krabs out for sending Squidward to fight Bubble Bass alone.
* TheHero: It's ''[=SpongeBob=]'' as a shounen anime parody, so of course [[ProtagonistTitle SpongeBob himself]] is the StockShonenHero.
* MusclesAreMeaningless: His arms are thin and bendy, but he's an extremely strong fight able to make short work of [[TheBrute Bubble Bass]].
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: He brutally beats down Bubble Bass after seeing what he did to Squidward and continues punching his dead body until Sandy gets him to calm down.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: His eyes turn bright red after he jabs himself with the [[SuperSerum Secret Formula]].

[[folder:Patrick Star]]
->Voiced by: [[https://twitter.com/gouryu007 Gouryu]] (Japanese), [[https://twitter.com/TheUncleAlShow Uncle Al]] (English)
[=SpongeBob=]'s best friend and fellow member of the Krusty Krab.
----
* AdaptationalIntelligence: Unlike in the original cartoon, instead of being just a simpleton this Patrick is very knowledgeable and wise.
* AmbiguouslyGay: He calls both [=SpongeBob=] and Squidward beautiful, but it's in the context of explaining to Sandy why they're immune to the prophecy of the Ugly Barnacle, so it's unknown if it's also a sign of him having deeper feelings for either of them.
* BackFromTheDead: [[spoiler:He somehow comes back alive in between second and third [=OPs=].]]
* BackupFromOtherworld: His spirit shows up to assist [=SpongeBob=] in his battle against Squidward during the second video.
* TheBigGuy: A very rotund and {{acrofatic}} fighter.
* FanDisservice: His Bermuda shorts are replaced by a thong, which jiggles just about every time he moves.
* InTheHood: [[spoiler:Who's that mysterious figure in the hood in the third OP? Surely it can't be Patrick.]]
* OffWithHisHead: [[spoiler:He dies by Squidward cutting off his head (and one of his arms).]]
* {{Tritagonist}}: He gets the third most amount of focus after [=SpongeBob=] and Squidward.

[[folder:Sandy Cheeks]]
->Voiced by: [[https://twitter.com/Saki__Yukino Saki Yukino]] (Japanese), [[https://twitter.com/ezbreezyva Emma Breezy]] (English)
----
* AdaptationalWimp: She's also a skilled karate master here, but unlike in the cartoon she isn't the strongest member of the cast and gets beaten badly by Squidward in the first OP, followed by her spending the second OP recovering and pleading [=SpongeBob=] not to go fight Squidward. She regains some of her badassery in the third OP, which shows her fighting bad guys once again.
* TheHeart: [=SpongeBob=]'s primary LoveInterest (besides Squidward) and the one who calms him down in the first episode. In the second OP she also makes a futile attempt to convince him not to fight Squidward.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Mr. Krabs]]
->Voiced by: [[https://www.youtube.com/@alibiz6731 John Wang]] (Japanese), [[https://twitter.com/MEdwardsVA Michael Edwards]] (English)
The owner of the Krusty Krab and [=SpongeBob=].
----
* BigGood: The one in charge of the Krusty Krew, sitting opposite of Plankton.
* BrokenPedestal: [=SpongeBob=] loses respect for him when he learns he sent Squidward to fight Bubble Bass alone, and when he seemingly doesn't care whether or not Squidward dies.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: He somehow got the Krabby Patty Secret Formula from an ArtifactOfDoom.
* GoodIsNotNice: He's incredibly cold when it comes to the lives of his employees, shrugging of the possibility of Squidward's death in the first episode as simply being a sign he isn't strong enough.
* MentorArchetype: Everything he does is to guide and prepare [=SpongeBob=].
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: Inverted. He's the only ''[=SpongeBob=]'' character to keep his original cartoon design (albeit more detailed), something that makes him stand out among the {{Animesque}} designs of the other characters.

[[folder:Squidward Tentacles]]
->Voiced by: [[https://twitter.com/nicole_inu398 Nicole Inu]] (Japanese), [[https://twitter.com/SydakVO T.J. Anthony]] (English)
[=SpongeBob=]'s former friend and fellow employee at the Krusty Krab, until he joined the Chum Bucket out of envy for [=SpongeBob=] and became Plankton's ace.
----
* AlwaysSecondBest: [=SpongeBob=] always being better than him is what fuels his envy and desire to prove himself.
* {{Deuteragonist}}: He gets the second most amount of focus and development after [=SpongeBob=].
* TheDragon: Plankton's ace fighter against the Krusty Krab.
* DrivenByEnvy: The main reason he turned evil seems to be because he was jealous of [=SpongeBob=] getting employee of the month so many times.
* FaceHeelTurn: Leaves the Krusty Krab to join the Chum Bucket and becomes an enemy to his former allies.
* GlowingEyesOfDoom: His eyes glow green after he takes Plankton's chum serum.
* HonorBeforeReason: The reason he fights Bubble Bass alone in the first episode is because he wants to reclaim his lost pride from being constantly outdone by [=SpongeBob=].
* ItsPersonalWithTheDragon: Plankton may be the BigBad, but it's Squidward who killed Patrick, hurt Sandy, and has a personal rivalry with [=SpongeBob=].
* TheLancer: Before he joined the Chum Bucket, he was [=SpongeBob=]'s brooding friend and rival among the Krusty Krew.
* LancerVsDragon: He fights Patrick and Sandy in the first OP and defeats them both.
* MultiArmedAndDangerous: He sprouts two extra arms during his fight with [=SpongeBob=] in OP 2.
* RivalTurnedEvil: Goes from [=SpongeBob=]'s rival to one of his worst enemies in the [=OPs=].
* SlasherSmile: He's grinning creepily all throughout his fight with [=SpongeBob=] in OP 2.
* StockShonenRival: A parody of this archetype. He starts out as a friendly rival of [=SpongeBob=]'s (with romantic overtones) before becoming envious of him and turning evil (but keeping the romantic overtones).

[[folder:Bubble Bass]]
->Voiced by: [[https://twitter.com/JohnWangVO John Wang]] (Japanese), [[https://twitter.com/JakoshiSan Jack Reeder]] (English)
A fat but tough fish whom Plankton sends to steal the Secret Formula.
----
