3[[foldercontrol]]
4
5!Agastia
6[[folder:Company Overall]]
7* AntiVillain: Both the individuals and the organization as a whole are this. The only truly villainous things about them is that they want to [[TakeOverTheWorld take over the world]] and want to defeat the heroes that oppose them. Aside from that, all of them are AffablyEvil at worst and most of them are pretty much just ordinary individuals that so happen to work for an evil organization.
8* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: If you want to go higher on the hierarchy, you have to be as strong as the higher-ups. Akashic is the Supreme Leader mostly because she's the strongest member.
9* BenevolentBoss: All the executives, as strict as they may be, value their employees, care for their wellbeing and are even open to feedback. Most of them even have friendly relationships with them, and will even hang out with them on off-days.
10* EqualOpportunityEvil: Most of the top-executives are monsters from various races, but the majority of the organization is composed of human workers. The Supreme Leader is, in fact, a preteen human girl.
11* EvenEvilHasStandards:
12** They only go after the heroes that oppose them, such as Blader. As such, [[NeverHurtAnInnocent civilians are never to be harmed]].
13** Unlike Black Lore, the superiors care about their subordinates and give them paid time off.
14** When they find out that the chocolate monster they created could have metal fragments in it, they quickly shut the whole project off in order not to harm the public.
15* {{Foil}}: Agastia and Black Lore are this to each other. Agastia gives their employees paid time off, encourages feeddback from all levels, and have a pretty strict moral code. Black Lore, by contrast, is a Black Company, through and through.
16* MinionWithAnFInEvil: a lot of the characters who work here are evil only InNameOnly- or InformedAttribute-sense. They're good people who just happen to work for a company who wants to take over the world.
17* SlidingScaleOfAnthropomorphism: Members of the company cover multiple levels of this scale.
18** LittleBitBeastly: Wolfe
19** BeastMan: Warrior Jaguar
20** FunnyAnimal: Cannon Thunderbird

23!!Monster Development Department
24[[folder:Tōka Kuroitsu]]
25The titular Miss Kuroitsu, the deputy head of the Monster Development Department under Doctor Sadamaki, forced to balance the sometimes contradictory demands of her superiors while designing monsters capable of defeating Blader and Agastia's other enemies. She's not shy about directing her monsters in the field, though strangely no one seems to notice her true identity outside of Agastia.
26[[/folder]]
27
28[[folder:Doctor Hajime Sadamaki]]
29The head of the Monster Development Department, a genius who sometimes pushes his responsibilities onto Kuroitsu. Later revealed to be the brother of the man inside the Divine Swordsman Blader suit, though he is unaware of his true identity.
30[[/folder]]
31
32[[folder:Wolf Bete]]
33A young wolfman created by Kuroitsu and Sadamaki to be an opponent for Blader, but his body was abruptly changed to that of a girl at the last minute when Akashic demanded that Wolf Bete be built "cuter," giving him gender dysphoria. After surviving his initial encounter with Blader, Wolf Bete was later attached to the Monster Development Department as an assistant with Kuroitsu, though he still seeks to defeat Blader and earn the money and prestige to gain his ideal body.
34
35* LittleBitBeastly: a human body with wolf parts grafted on.
36* TheMindIsAPlaythingOfTheBody: Averted. He never thinks of himself as female, never starts acting adult, etc.[[labelnote:possible explanation]]This might be his prepubescent mind not knowing how to use a post-pubescent body, them not including any reproductive organs or functions, etc.[[/labelnote]]
37[[/folder]]
38
39[[folder:Cannon Thunderbird]]
40A monster designed by committee. Originally designed as a giant mech with railguns and other powerful weapons, but over the course of development and meetings with other Agastia departments, the monster was scaled down until it was released as a large, talking, robotic bird with a visor and a separate pistol. The bird was quickly defeated by Blader in their first encounter, but Cannon was repaired and now works as a mascot character at Agastia's Leafland Amusement Park.
41[[/folder]]
42
43[[folder:Hydra]]
44A monster who was supposed to have 8 venom-spitting snake heads, but despite Kuroitsu's attempts to justify the expenses, Hydra was forcibly scaled down. It's current form is a girl with four extra snake-like heads who each have their own personalities and often bicker at each other.
45[[/folder]]
46
47[[folder:Melty]]
48A chocolate monster that Agastia planned to release for a Valentine's Day special attack on Blader, until Megistus heard that the chocolate used to make Melty was tainted with metal pieces. Melty was then shoved in a fridge until later, when non-tainted chocolate was used to remake her. However, outside of Valentine's Day, she acts as another assistant to the Monster Development Department.
49[[/folder]]
50
51!!Executives
52
53[[folder:Akashic]]
54The Supreme Leader of Agasttia.
55
56* AffablyEvil: Besides the fact that she's the leader of an evil organization aiming to [[TakeOverTheWorld assume control over the world]], she's just an [[GenkiGirl upbeat and cheerful kid that just wants to have fun]].
57* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: As Agastia follows this trope to determine someone's position in the hierarchy, Akashic is the Supreme Leader mostly for the fact that she's the strongest.
58* BadassAdorable: Who could have guessed that such young and adorable child is not only the head of an evil organization, but its strongest member?
59* BenevolentBoss: While she can a bit bratty and demand that all monsters created to be cute, she has a very friendly relationship with her employees. She will even step up if any of them are in need of aid.
60* HiddenDepths:
61** She takes matters concerning Valentine very seriously and even teaches both Kuroitsu and Wolf Bete how to do it.
62** There are a couple of moments that imply that she's not as naive as she appears to be. She quickly figured out, during the beach episode, that both Wolf Bete and Cannon were trying their best to impress someone else (Kuroitsu and Hydra specifically), and she can act professional while talking with other companies, such as Zet Arc.
63* PintSizedPowerhouse: Physically she's a little girl in her early teens. However, she's strong enough to turn a monster into chunks of meat and even [[PartingTheSea cut the sea in half]] with a single swing of her arm.
64
65[[/folder]]
66
67[[folder:Megistus]]
68The terrifying Chief of Staff of Agastia, and the direct superior to the Monster Development Department. He often handles the day-to-day tasks for most of Agastia, and isn't afraid to stand up to Akashic when necessary.
69[[/folder]]

88[[folder:Skylla]]

134[[folder:In General]]
135* HenshinHero: pretty much most of the heroes are these
136* MagicalGirl: some of the heroes in the setting fall under this
137* PunchClockHero: Just like villainy, heroism is essentially a job for people, with stuff like sponsorship deals and an income, and as such not all of them are really "heroic".

139[[/folder]]
140
141[[folder:Kenji Sadamaki]]
142A 24 year old part-time worker at a bento shop who secretly defends his Tokyo neighborhood from Agastia's monsters as the Divine Swordsman Blader. He is the brother of Doctor Sadamaki, and Miss Kuroitsu frequently visits his shop to pick up lunch for the workday, though neither side is aware of the other's alter-ego. He laments the fact that he is not an "official" sponsored hero (with the stable paycheck and benefits that would come with it) but is indirectly convinced by Kuroitsu to fight for the sake of justice.
143
144* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Early on he’s considering quitting hero work due to having to work a part time job to make ends meet and barely being recognized by the public, while other well heroes are much more well known and have plenty of funding. An offhand comment by [[NiceJobFixingItVillain Kuroitsu ends up snapping him out of this]].
145* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: Develops a new form that even he didn't even see coming.
