Added DiffLines:

A regular customer of Wagnaria, Miri is known for how she wears thick Winter clothing despite it being the height of Summer. While initially mistaken for a ghost, Daisuke soon finds out that she's a classmate of his, but has never been able to go to school because of her weak constitution. Of course, since she seems perfectly fine hanging around Wagnaria every day, he thinks that she's just using her physical problems as an excuse to ''never'' come to school.

Oh, and according to Sayuri, her long-departed grandfather is ''still'' one of the restaurants regular customers.

* GirlishPigtails: Unlike Shiho, she wears them much higher on the head.
* GhostLights: Has two green wisps floating close to her all the time.
* IllGirl: Has been known to have a weak constitution, to the point she caught ''pneumonia'' on the first day of school just because she didn't wear the proper clothing.

!!Rui Nagata
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AriOzawa

One of Daisuke's classmates at Higashizaka High, he asks for her help in befriending Miri, in the hopes that it would force the latter to actually come to school. She has a secret crush on Daisuke, but because of all the women hovering around her classmate, she's unable to properly act on it.

Added DiffLines:

A new hire much like Daisuke, Koki spent much of his childhood out of Japan, and as a result he can barely read or speak Japanese. When a friend sent an application with his personal info on it as a prank, he was obviously at a loss at what to do about it. Despite this communication problem however Sakaki hires him ''anyway'', and as a result he's now under Kisaki's dubious tutelage.

One of the two regular chefs of Wagnaria, Masahiro is much more down to earth and less prone to theatrics as his kitchen co-worker is. Though generally used to the quirks of the other restaurant staff, Sayuri often throws him off balance, especially doing those rare times where she tries to emote.



* StraightMan: To Takuya

* StraightMan: To Takuya
Takuya.




The other regular chef of Wagnaria. While he's just as serious about his job as Masahiro, ''unlike'' his companion Kouno tries to squeeze as much enjoyment out of his work at the restaurant. Often this comes at the rest of his co-workers' expense, though it's always in the name of light-hearted fun.




A waiter at Wagnaria, Yuta comes from a family that's buried in debt, so much so that most of his salary from his many ''many'' jobs go into paying for it. As such he often has little to spend for himself, and has to rely on the restaurant leftovers to sometimes get through the day.

He's also Shiho's ChildhoodFriend, though this doesn't get him any favors as far as his family's debt goes. In fact, his inability to properly address the situation between the two of them often just digs him in ''deeper''.

Added DiffLines:


One of the other waitresses at Wagnaria, Shiho is the only daughter of one of the richest families in the city. Technically she doesn't even ''need'' to work, but seems to enjoy working at the restaurant anyway. Her mere presence at the restaurant serves as a constant reminder to Yuta that he really ''really'' had a good thing going, but had casually thrown it away because he didn't know better as a kid.

One of the senior waitresses at Wagnaria, Kisaki seems to be at her best trying to ''avoid'' the "working" part of the profession. A student of one of the area's better universities, she uses the little bits of academic trivia she learned there to either pass off her responsibilities to her other co-workers, or to simply leave her alone.

A single mom, she has a baby girl named Hime, who she think is being doted on too much by her own parents. [[spoiler:Oh, and she's apparently Souma's ex-girlfriend. The more you know...]]


Added DiffLines:


Another of the waitresses at Wagnaria, Sayuri is quiet and a bit... odd. Despite claiming not to be able to see, or indeed ''believe'', in ghosts, she insists in serving customers none of the other staff can see. And not only that, the restaurant literally becomes a whole lot colder, darker, and ''eerier'' whenever she's not on duty.
