History Characters / ValkyrieDriveBhikkhuni

* BadassLesbian: All of them.

[[folder:[[spoiler:'''AAA''']]]]

[[folder:[[spoiler: First Graduating Class]]]]

--->Voiced by: Ayano Yamamoto

--->Voiced by: Creator/YuuKobayashi

* {{Tsundere}}: A shining example of the trope. Her flippant attitude, massive ego, and general dismiss of everyone else is just her clumsy attempts to get Koharu's attention. ''Bhikkhunism'' goes so far to show that she has ''zero'' interest in taking a class if Koharu isn't there.

* LightEmUp: Once she enters Final Drive, Koharu's power manifests in the form of energy blades, wings made of solid light and Energy Bolts.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: As contrast to the Kagurazaka's purple hair.

The military arm of the World Government, officially tasked with containing and quarantining the V-Virus infection, they were the ones who built the five artificial islands where the entire franchise takes place.

* SacrificialLion: Thanks to Gundari's leadership they were able to force a stalemate with AAA, and were only defeated due AAA cutting off all resources to the island, starving them to death.

--->Voiced by: Creator/YukaIguchi

* ItsRainingMen: Since they are bonus character with no plot relevance, their intro cutscene has them pulling this.

** ContinuityNod: Interestingly, they follow the same rules from the anime instead of the ones made up for the game. Thus, while [[VideoGame/ValkyrieDriveBhikkhuni ''Bhikkhuni's'']] cast can take the Liberator or Extar role indistinctly, Mirei can only be a Liberator and Mamori can only be an Extar; plus Mamori is the only Extar available to Mirei and vice-versa

* EmbarrassingLastName: Her family name, "Tokonome," is written in the same Kanji as the word "Virgin." She is ''not'' amused when anyone points it out, especially when they laugh at her for it. To date, only [[TheStoic Mirei]] respects her wishes in this, and actually calls her by name.

** Interestingly, this trope only applies to her school uniform. Put her on a different costume and she will wear a bra just like all the other characters in the game. The opposite is also true, put Mirei's uniform on other character and she won't wear a bra.

* FoodAsBribe: As long you feed her, Manpukumaru will gladly help you on anything you ask of her.

* HealThyself: In a pretty interesting deviation from her classmates, using Manpukumaru's signature attack leads her to immediately sit down and gorge herself with meat buns to recover a small amount of health. However, the animation can't be canceled nor interrupted, making her an easy target while is being used; you can mash triangle to accelerate the process a little though.
* HiddenDepths: She's surprisingly insightful for someone whose only care in the world is to have filled belly, able to remain calm at all times and to plan some pretty elaborate schemes to further her goals.

** SpinAttack: Throws herself spinning against her foes in such way that would make [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]] proud.

* MeanigfulAppearance / CostumePorn: She wears a cute set in the form of Sunnyside eggs, Lettuce and one Apple on her head, she calls it "The Breakfast set". Luckily, they are mere ornaments and no the real thing. Although not due to lack of trying.

* EmpathicWeapon: Their performance as weapons is tied to their emotional state and bond with their Liberators. Koharu mentions during the first round of scheduled battles that she couldn't use her full power due her partner being utterly terrified of facing Kongo in combat.

* GasMaskMooks: Aside of the Armed Class, every student wears either a mask, an elaborate headdress or a scarf to hide their faces.

* MiniMook: The Shooter Class are the smaller of the bunch.

** Support Class: They focus on increase defense and recover health of their partners.

* VoluntaryShapeshifting: They have a better control of their powers compared to other islands.

* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: [[spoiler:Drawing their full power while in Extar form can put them out of comission for several days due the extreme stress they experience. Rinka discovered this after helping Momo to fight Professor Gouzanze]]

* EmpathicWeapon: Their performance as weapons is tied to their emotional state and bond with their Liberators. Also, unlike other Armed Virus carriers they are perfectly aware of what is happening and to communicate while in weapon form.
* EvolvingWeapon: The weapons their wield can change up to four times, enabling new attacks and combos.

* NoDressCode: Played straight plot wise. While the students you face regularly through the game wear proper uniforms, all the girls in the VR-Class dress as they want. Even the Kagurazakas and Koharu wear heavily customized school uniforms.

The elder Kagurazaka sister. An easygoing optimist, but her simple minded nature worries her sister Ranka at times. Rinka's elegant variation on Japanese Swordmanship leaves behind in the air a pleasant scent.

* AllLovingHero: Rinka gentle and kind personality leads to think of everyone in the island as her friends. Even when they are downright aggressive towards her like Momo or Viola.

* CharacterDevelopment: She begins the game as a good natured if somewhat airheaded girl that see the world in pretty simplistic terms. But by the time the story ends she comes to realize the world is not as simple as she initially thought and that sometimes conflict is necessary to help everyone.

* FlowerMotifs: Cherry Blossoms, activating drive with her will surround her on them and during Final Drive her sword will spread petals with each swing.

* NaiveNewcomer: During the opening of the game she has absolutely no idea on what they have to do or where their permits ended. She's confident they will find all the help they need simply asking random strangers about it. [[TheCuckoolanderWasRight She was right]]

* PinkIsFeminine: Is associated to color pink and is by far the most fememine member of the cast.
* ProperTightsWithASkirt: Her legs are fully covered by a pair of dark stockings, serving as contrast to Ranka's ZettaiRyouiki.
* RedOniBlueOni: Oddly enough is not with her sister but with Momo. She's the Red Oni to Momo's Blue Oni. Where as Momo is introverted and shy, Rinka is outgoing, expressive and defiant.
* SailorFuku: Her default outfit is pretty straight example of this.

* BerserkButton: Insulting her sister. In the Drama CD she nearly goes into a RoaringRampageOfRevenge after hearing Viola spread lies about her sister in the former's radio show.

* CovertPervert: Despite her fixation on her sister, Ranka is very interested on the bodies of her classmates. She goes as far to fantasize about being abused by Momo after hearing her sleep talking and asking Viola if the carpet matches the drapes.

* HatesBeingAlone: The mere thought of being separated from Rinka utterly terrifies her. [[spoiler:This trope is the whole reason of their conflict in the Chaos Route. Rinka wants to leave the island and return to her parents while Ranka would rather remain on Bhikkhuni.]]

* PowerFist: Her Extars take the the form of huge, spiked gauntlets and her entire combat style is based around punching.
* PlayingWithFire: Fitting her hot blooded personality, her elemental affinity is Fire.

* SailorFuku: Just like her sisterm she wears one of these. Although her uniform is noticeably riskier than Rinka's.

* FlashStep: Her signature move enables to appear behind any targeted enemy to strike them with a launcher attack regardless of its distance.

** TornadoMove: For her Ultimate Drive Break she moves in circles around her enemies, trapping them in the eye of a hurricane of her making, before coming down and unleashing several mini tornadoes all over the arena.

* VitriolicBestBuds: Momo spends a lot of time bickering and teasing Ranka but when push comes to shove, she will put her life on line for her.

* TheArcher: The only long range attack specialist in the VR-Class although in an interesting take on the trope, Mana's more than willing to follow orders and her arrogance is unrelated to her srchery skills.

* BreakTheCutie: Mana begins the game as a genuinely (if somewhat ambitious) NiceGirl that is trying her best to bond with her new classmates and generally fit among the island population. However, her designated partner has zero interest in cooperate with her and the few friends she has made fail to properly support her when she most need them. With the ever present threat of being deported from the island if she fails to meet the school's standards, Mana quickly becomes ruthless and selfish, quick to thrown everyone under the bus to further her own goals.

* ChargedAttack: Just like Ranka, her finishers can be charged by holding the respective button down. Unlike Ranka, doing this increases the amount of arrows shoot and their accuracy.

* MagicHair: Somehow she's able to turn her strands of her hair into arrows.
* MagikarpPower: Starting right out of the gate, Mana is pretty weak with her arrows doing very low damage, not helped by her combos being the shortest among the girls.. However, once she reaches higher levels of Drive, preferably Third or Fourth Drive, her arrows' damage skyrockets to the point that she can shred through even the armor and weakpoints of the [[GiantMecha Four Pillar Gods]].

* AssKicksYou: Plenty of her attacks involve her butt as weapon.

* DarkAndTroubledPast: The Order route reveals [[spoiler: that before arriving to Bhikkhuni she was held prisoner in another island were she would be forced to fight non stop against other valkyries every day. Food was [[FreudianExcuse the only thing]] that gave her solace during that time.]]
* DifficultButAwesome: Her attacks have a lot of recovery frames and coupled with her slow speed makes a challenge to use her effectively in combat. However, after mastering dodge cancelling you can use her monstrous strength to demolish your foes in matter of seconds.
* ExoticEyeDesigns: Her Irises are lime green and star shaped.

* HealThyself: In a pretty interesting deviation from her classmates, using Manpukumaru's signature attack leads her to immediately sit down and gorge herself with meat buns to recover a small amount of health. However, the animation can't be cancelled nor interrupted, making her an easy target while is being used; you can mash triangle to accelerate the process a little though.

* StatuesqueStunner: Given she's the tallest character in the cast (beating Viola by two centimeters) her character model postively dwarfs everyone's else in cutscenes.
* TheNicknamer: Seems like as proof of her friendship, she gives cute nicknames to all of her friends. This of course, means Mana isn't included.

*** BilingualBonus: Momo and Koharu's nicknames are merely english translations of their first name and last name, respectively.

** BladeSpam: Rushes forward in a flurry of slashes during her second level Drive Break

* NoSocialSkills: As mentioned before, she has a hard time expressing herself properly with people that is not named Koharu.

* RichBitch: Viola can easily afford living on the Elite's district and has the attitude to match.

* SingleTargetSexuality: Viola has an almost pathological fixation on Koharu and in consequence dismiss everyone else.

* SmittenTeenageGirl: Viola has it ''bad'' for Koharu. At the beginning of the game her only goal was to be acknowledged by Koharu and becoming her partner. Once she finally achieves this, Viola is content with blindly following Koharu everywhere as a love stricken puppy.
* StalkerWithACrush: Has an encyclopedic knowledge on Koharu's customs that allows her to accurately predict where Koharu will be an a given time.

* {{Tsundere}}: A shining example of the trope. Her flippant attitude, massive ego and general dismiss of everyone else is just her clumsy attempts to get Koharu's attention. ''Bhikkhunism'' goes so far to show that she has ''zero'' interest on taking class if Koharu isn't there.

* VocalDissonance: Has a noticeable deep voice for a 18 years old.

* LadyOfWar: Quiet, dignified and with a combat style that favors efficiency over flashiness.

** SwordBeam: Releases three of these in quick succession as her second level Drive Break.

* NumberTwo: As the head student, Koharu is directly under the Director's orders and has autority to act on her behalf.

---> Voiced by: Creator/AsamiImai

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: She is a gentle, somewhat absentminded woman always willing to help her students [[spoiler: but when Rinka and Ranka stumble upon certain classified information, she drops the kind facade and becomes a ruthless, no nonsense woman.]]

* SurveillanceAsThePlotDemands: Has an extensive surveillance system at her disposal from which she keeps tabs of all the happenings on the island. She's also able to create floating screens to communicate with the students regardless their location.

* {{Troll}}: Prone to make strange decisions on a whim (like declaring swimsuit day after seeing Viola wear hers to class) for no other reason than get a rise from the students.

* ShopKeeper: Runs the in game store.

* VirtualGhost: You will only interact with her via the floating screens she's able to project anywhere in the island.

* TheFourGods: As the name suggests, they are modelled after the Four Holy Beasts: Kongo is based on Genbu, Gouzanze is based on Seiryu, Daiitoku is based on Byakko and Gundari is based on Suzaku.

* HumongousMecha: They look like gigantic robotic animals.
* TurnsRed: They are able to siphon energy from the Island itself, greatly increasing their power and allowing them to regenerate from any injury, effectively making them invincible. Interestingly, despite this being a plot point in the Order route; you only fight their enhanced forms (called "Power Unleashed" by the in game bestiary) on the Challenge and Survival modes.

* DishingOutDirt: Of the stone based variety, her attacks cause huge rock pillars to raise from the soil to hit you with them. Once you've taken half of ther health she becomes able to create small volcanic eruptions to throw balls of magma at you.

* WakeUpCallBoss: End-of-level bosses prior to the fight against her were all against human-sized Valkyries. Kongo is the first one that can take a lot of punishment and involves a lot of chipping away at her armor in order to expose her weakpoints underneath.

* EyesDoNotBelongThere: Has two set of eyes on her head: the ones placed on its natural place and a smaller set on her forehead. [[spoiler: And of course, her real eyes are the ones on her forehead]]
* KnightOfCerebus: Not only does she incapacitate Rinka for a while after their first encounter, [[spoiler: she also releases a girl after being defeated on the second encounter, kick starting the Kagurazakas quest for Bhikkhuni's secrets.]]

* MacrossMissileMassacre: One of her attacks is launching a ludicrous amount of missiles from the canon mounted on her back.

The strongest of the Four Pillar Gods as well as their de facto leader. [[spoiler:She is in fact the Director and the creator of Bhikkhuni's system after a failed attempt at fighting back against AAA a few years prior to the events of the game left her and Echigoya as the only survivors of the island.]]

* GetBackHereBoss: Spends more of the time travelling all over the arena during her boss battles.

* MarionetteMaster: [[spoiler:Of the robotic variety, she controls ''every single'' robot present on the island. This takes a considerable a amount of her power and thus when she needs to use her full power to stop Rinka, every robot on the island is render nonoperational.]]

* WalkingSpoiler: You can't talk about Gundari's role on the story without spoiling the entire plot.

A mature, polite and calm girl. Has a complex about being as short as an elementary student despite her big breasts. Pacifist by nature but since she met Mirei seems to find trouble everywhere they go.

With her outstanding figure, olive skin, long blond hair reaching the ground and aloof silence she can seem intimidating but her character is pure and sincere and she actually loves cute things. Never one to turn a blind eye to injustice she uses her abilities as S-Class Liberator to help everyone in need. However, her silent nature keeps her past a mystery.

* GuestFighter: They are originary from the anime and are available as paid DLC.
** ContinuityNod: Interestingly, they follow the same rules from the anime instead of the ones made up for the game. Thus, while [[VideoGame/ValkyrieDriveBhikkhuni ''Bhikkhuni's'']] cast can take the Liberator or Extar role indistinctly, Mirei can only be a Liberator and Mamori can only be an Extar; plus Mamori is the only Extar available to Mirei and viceversa

* AnimalMotif: Associated with house cats, mainly via the cat hair pin she wears.

** DivergentCharacterEvolution: Due gameplay mechanics, Mamori is able to transform into a different set of weapons compared with the evolution she goes through on the [[Anime/ValkyrieDriveMermaid anime]]. Interestingly, only the first and second tier forms are lifted straight [[http://i.imgur.com/fwL7WUI.png from the anime]] (and even then, her second tier form is a sword here rather than a polearm as it was in the anime), the remaining two are [[http://i.imgur.com/q20b6DT.png completely original to the game]].
* CursedWithAwesome: Mamori's potential with the virus is so incredible high than she became a priority target for AAA on the anime.

* EquippableAlly: A given due her condition as Extar. However, due her being infected with the V strain of the armed virus, she can only be wielded by Mirei.

* AnimalMotifs: She's associated with Dogs. Her hair outline is designed to give the impression of being dog ears and she's fiercely loyal, protective and devoted to Mamori. Can be made literal in-game thanks to the different accessories available on the dressing room.

* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Even without an Arm, she's agile enough to dodge bullets, and strong enough to rip one or two high-tension cables purely with brute strength. Hundreds of cables at once is a bit too much for her though.

* TheDeterminator: She won't let anything stop her from fullfilling Mirei's wish of using their power to cure everyone infected with the Armed Virus.

* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Despite being blonde due to PowerDyesYourHair, she still embodies the trope, blonde hair and Mamori's PrinceCharming.

* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: The reason she's commited to fullfill Mamori's wish of curing everyone.

** ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks: Launches Mamori towards the ground, creating an energy wave that damage any enemy on range as her first Drive Break.
** BladeSpam: For her Second Drive Break she lunges forward, stabbing the enemy from every direction. Every lunge damages the enemey, unlike Momo's version where the damage is only dealt at the end.

* PowerGivesYouWings: During Final Drive she's able to manifest a pair of energy wings during the finisher of certain combos and during her ultimate Drive Break. Interestingly, only Koharu is able to do the same.

* VaporWear: Notoriously, she doesn't use a bra. Likely a remnant of her time as a SOLDIER since this maximizes her efficience to drive in the midst of battle.

* HairDecorations: She's never seen without her Blue hairpin, ''Bhikkhunism'' even shows her wearing it while ''bathing''

* HairDecorations: Just like her sister, she's never seen without her Red Hairpin.

* HairDecorations: Wears a hair clip with flowers on her head.

* HairDecorations: She wears a cute set in the form of Sunny side eggs, Lettuce and one Apple on her head, she calls it "The Breakfast set". Luckily, they are mere ornaments and no the real thing. Although not due lack of trying.
-->'''''Manpukumaru:''' I tried doing a bunch of different things, but they all failed. Things would wilt, leak out some weird juices and the bugs... Oh man, the bugs...''

* HairDecorations: Her signature butterfly pin.

* HairDecorations: The white hairband she always wears.

* HairDecorations: Her cat hairpin makes a return from the anime as an equipable accessory available for the whole cast.

* VillainOfAnotherStory: Takes a much more active role on Anime/ValkyrieDriveMermaid where they personally dispatch Momoka and her team to capture Mamori.

* EverythingIsBetterWithSpinning: Momo ''loves'' to spin her spear around during her combos.

** SpinAttack: Throws herself spinning against her foes in such way that would make [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Sonic]] proud.

-->''Viola: Does the Students Affair Office Supply Marriage Registrations too?''
-->''Koharu: I won't accept a marriage registration, okay?''
-->''Viola: ...Tch, you heard that uh?''

-->'''''Manpukumaru:''' Hmmm~~ It's though trying to eat things that I can't put in my mouth.''
-->'''''Ranka:''' You mean Things that are too big to fit?''
-->'''''Manpukumaru:''' For those I can just dislocate my jaw and swallow them whole.''

* ArtisticLicenseGunSafety: Given her previous experiences in [[ChildSoldier combat]], she should be knowledgeable of basic Gun Safety and yet, the way she uses her handgun is reckless to say the least. the most damming aspect is the fact she stashes her gun ''inside her cleavage'' when is not in use.

-->'''Mana:''' Oh, Viola. By any chance, did you help Ranka out because you were thinking of Ranka's safety in the end?\\

* SubmissiveBadass: One of the best fighters in the series, and one of the few with live combat experience, but follows Mamori's lead in all but the most dire of situations.

* ProperTightsWithASkirt: Her legs are fully covered by a pair of dark stockings, serving as contrast to Ranka's ZettaiRyouki

* ZettaiRyouki: Her stripped stockings grant her a grade A.

* ThirdPersonPerson: Refers to herself by her name.

* ILLKILLYOU: During the first third of the game this is pretty much all that she says. It gets lampshaded in ''Bhikkhunism'' where Ranka calls her out on it.

** Played straight in the Order Route [[spoiler: when the robots sic on you by Gundari take the aspect of the Fifth Class students clad in red ad black armor]]

* BoobsOfSteel: The bustiest character in the game and also the stronger.

* PowerFist: Ranka's weapon of choice is a set of Gauntlets larger than her head.

* OneHandedZweihander: As she wears her weapon.

* GuestFighter: She and Ranka are DLC for ''VideoGame/SenranKagura Senran Kagura: Peach Beach Splash''

* GuestFighter: She and Ranka are DLC for ''VideoGame/SenranKagura Senran Kagura: Peach Beach Splash''

* GuestFighter: She and Ranka are DLC for ''VideoGame/Senran Kagura Senran Kagura: Peach Beach Splash''

* GuestFighter: She and Ranka are DLC for ''VideoGame/Senran Kagura Senran Kagura: Peach Beach Splash''

** TheDevTeamThinksOfEverything: Interestingly, they follow the same rules from the anime instead of the ones made up for the game. Thus, while the VR-Class can take the Liberator or Extar role indistinctly, Mirei can only be a Liberator and Mamori can only be an Extar; with Mamori being the only Extar available to Mirei and viceversa

* BreakTheCutie: Mana begins the game as a genuinely (if somewhat ambitious) girl that is trying her best to bond with her new classmates and generally fit among the island population. However, her designated partner has zero interest in cooperate with her and the few friends she has made fail to properly support her when she most need them. With the ever present threat of being deported from the island if she fails to meet the school's standards, Mana quickly becomes ruthless and selfish, quick to thrown everyone under the bus to further her own goals.

In construction.
