3
4	[[folder:Marie Mizuguchi]]
5	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MaiFuchigami
6	A classmate of Naruko (in the game) or Ritsu (in the anime). She's a gentle and approachable honor student who occasionally participates in the Go-Home Club's activities, but watches over them without being too nosy.\
7	[[spoiler:[[Characters/TheCaligulaEffectMuAndtheOstinatoMusicians For more tropes pertaining to Marie, please see Wicked's folder on the Ostinato Musicians page.]]]]
8	----
9	* ADayInTheLimelight: She is the focal character of the light novel.
10	* OptionalBoss: In the vanilla version of the game, she's fought in the postgame BonusDungeon, Echoing Obsession.
11	* ShipTease: Seems to be the case in both the anime and the novel in which she is the main focus. In the anime, she is already friends with Ritsu long before he becomes even remotely aware of Mobius' true nature, but it's ultimately averted.

13
14	[[folder:Rose, Lily, and Iris]]
15	Sweet-P's "princesses".
16	----
17	* ADayInTheLimelight: They get a bit more focus during some of Sweet-P's character episodes.
18	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Ike-P brainwashes them into fans of Izuru who then chase the Go-Home Club relentlessly.
19	* PaletteSwap: All three of them look identical other than the color of their clothes. Lampshaded by Kotaro, who mentions this trope by name.
20	* QuestGiver: Each of them gives Mifue a task in order to gauge whether she's worthy of meeting Sweet-P.
21	* ThemeNaming: Flowers.
22	* WolfpackBoss: The three of them are fought together during Ike-P's chapter.

24
25	[[folder:Toshizo Natori]]
26	Mirei's humble servant, both in real life and in Mobius.
27	----
28	* AdaptationExpansion: He gets more focus in the anime than in the game. Even in ''Overdose'', he only appears in Mirei's chapter of the story and her character episodes.
29	* BodyguardBetrayal: In the anime, he votes against Mirei in her beauty contest with Kotono because he believes a total loss would make her look more beautiful, somehow.
30	* ExtremeDoormat: Goes along with everything Mirei does. Any time he tries to suggest anything to her, she usually tells him to shut up.
31	* IncurableCoughOfDeath: It's heavily implied near the end of Mirei's Character Scenario that Toshizo is nearing the end of his life, due to his old age, due to his increased coughing fits.
32	* OldRetainer: Hinted at given his mannerisms and confirmed in the anime to be an elderly man.
33	* OlderThanTheyLook: Is revealed to be an elderly hospitalized invalid outside of Mobius.
34	* UndyingLoyalty: To Mirei. He doesn't mind if she's rich or not, he will always stay by her side.
35	* WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue: Shown in the anime's epilogue to be bedridden in the hospital due to his age but still happily conversing with Mirei who visits him.
36	[[/folder]]
37
38	[[folder:Chika Usami]]
39	A girl whose phone Shogo accidentally breaks. In order to make it up to her, the two of them start dating, though it's a shallow relationship at best.
40	----
41	* AdaptedOut: She is one of the few characters who does not appear in the anime adaption.
42	* DrivenToSuicide: She nearly commits suicide under the exact same circumstances as Ichika after Shogo breaks up with her. This time, though, Shogo is able to talk her down from it.
43	* LikesOlderMen: Even though she and Shogo break up, she later states that she wouldn't have minded continuing to date even knowing that he's ''double her age''. Given that she's underage, though, he shuts that right down.
44	* YoungerThanTheyLook: 15 years old. Shogo is, rightfully, disturbed when he finds out.
45	[[/folder]]
46
47	[[folder:Tokiko Chiba]]
48	Kotono's friend; the two of them go to singles parties together. It is later revealed that she is the one sending Kotono letters signed "Your Prince", and even later revealed that she is actually a friend of Kotono's mother.
49	----
50	* AdaptedOut: She is one of the few characters who does not appear in the anime adaption.
51	* OlderThanTheyLook: Her age is never stated, but it's safe to assume she's in her 40s at least.
52	* StalkerWithoutACrush: Is the one who sends the letters to Kotono as "her prince", but she's definitely not after her for romantic reasons.
53	* WhatTheHellHero: Calls Kotono out on abandoning Takkun.
54	[[/folder]]
55
56	[[folder:Ryosuke]]
57	Kotono's ex-boyfriend. In their senior year of high school, they had sex, and then after they graduated Ryosuke gave her a fake address and phone number and disappeared. He later comes to Mobius for unknown reasons, where Mirei captures him and uses him as bait for Kotono, which... doesn't work out for her.
58	----
59	* DisappearedDad: To Takkun.
60	* DistressedDude: Is trapped in an empty aquarium tank, with water filling up.
61	* TheCameo: In the anime, a blurry photo of him and her when they were dating in Kotono's flashback in the real world, but he does not appear in the Mobius.
62	* OlderThanTheyLook: Is presumably the same age as Kotono, which would make him 23.
63	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Dumps Kotono after getting her pregnant.
64	[[/folder]]
65
66	[[folder:Yuto Yamazaki]]
67	Kotaro's cousin, who was very abusive towards him in real life.
68	----
69	* TheCameo: In the anime, he only appear briefly in Kotaro's flashback and he never appears in the Mobius.
70	[[/folder]]
71
72	[[folder:Bluemon]]
73	A former fan of Kagi-P/Kensuke, whose music really resonated with him. He used to be in a rock band, but now is an office worker with nothing to look forward to in life. He eventually helps Kensuke find his own purpose in life.
74	----
75	* AdaptedOut: He is one of the few characters who does not appear in the anime adaption.
76	* TheAlcoholic:
77	-->'''Bluemon''': The only thing you can control in the real world is alcohol. No... not even that.
78	* BrokenPedestal: Initially hates Kensuke for how pathetic he became after leaving the Musicians, though he warms back up to him.
79	* MeaningfulName: It's a shortening of the phrase "Blue Monday", or "Monday blues".
80	* OlderThanTheyLook: Is ''40'', making him one of the oldest voiced characters.
81	* OnlyKnownByHisNickname: His real name is never given.
82	[[/folder]]
83
84	[[folder:Takkun]]
85	The son of Kotono and Ryosuke.
86	----
87	* AbusiveParents: Kotono was ''not'' a good mother to him.
88	* TheCameo: [[spoiler:In both the game's epilogue and final episode of the anime adaption, he is last seen reuniting with his mother, Kotono and spend time with her.]]
89	* TheFaceless: [[spoiler:His face was never fully shown neither in the epilogue nor the final episode of the anime adaption when he's reunited with his mother, Kotono.]]
90	* OnlyKnownByHisNickname: An {{implied\|trope}} case. "Takkun" is likely a shortening of his real name, as it's somewhat common for children in Japan to be referred to by the first syllable of their name and then -kun or -chan.
91	* ParentalAbandonment: He is abandoned by both of his parents at the young age and he ends up being raise by his grandmother. Subverted with his biological mother, Kotono, who felt guilty how she mistreated him just because he was born male and decides to become a better parent.
92	* RaisedByGrandparents: Takkun was raised by Kotono's mother after his mother abandoned him for two years until she has a change of heart and decides to raise him with a fresh start in the epilogue.
93	[[/folder]]
94
95	[[folder:Sho Takatsu, Shigeo Yumita, and Susumu Toyama]]
96	Three of Ritsu's classmates. He hangs out with them regularly, though they don't really seem to care about his interest in psychology.
97	----
98	* AscendedExtra: Downplayed. They're actual named characters in the game the President can interact with, but they're only prominent in the first and second episode.
99	* BigEater: Takatsu.
100	* WeHardlyKnewYe: They get little screen time, and after they become Digiheads in episode 2 they're never heard from again.

102
103	[[folder:'''SPOILER CHARACTER''']]
104	!!Ichika Saotome
105	A friend of Shogo and Asuka, who enjoyed going to concerts at the Grand Guignol. One day, she asked Shogo to commit suicide with her; he initially accepted but backed out at the last minute. Her death filled Shogo with grief, and Asuka with rage.
106	----
107	* CloudCuckoolander: Assuming Thorn really is playing as Ichika in her Character Scenario, then Ichika was quite the oddball. Even Shogo described as one of those "odd and quirky types." That being said...
108	* DeathSeeker: It's obvious she wasn't without her own fair share of problems, given that she (assuming it truly did happen) drank a drink she personally spiked with dangerous herbs that could have killed her.
109	* DrivenToSuicide: 13 years before the start of the game, she jumps off an under-construction skyscraper. It's never stated why. Shogo was supposed to [[SuicidePact join her]] but he ran away at the last minute.
110	* TheLostLenore: To Asuka and possibly Shogo. Asuka deeply misses her and he never got over her death 13 years ago. This is one of reasons why Asuka created a avatar based on her appearance in Mobius.
111	* PlotTriggeringDeath: Her death is what made Shogo and Asuka who they are today.
112	* PosthumousCharacter: She is dead long before the story begins.
113	* RedHerring: As you progress through the story and learn more about Thorn from her Character Scenario (which are recreations of her meetings with Asuka and Shogo) it's heavily implied that Thorn is Ichika's ghost. In reality, however, it's Asuka using her appearance as his avatar in Mobius.

115
116	[[folder:'''ANIME SPOILER CHARACTER''']]
117	!!Shingo Tachibana
118	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ChiharuSawashiro
119	A character in the anime adaptation. He's the head of a software team responsible for μ and is well liked by everyone. Following μ's actions in bringing people into Mobius, he has been hounded by the media.
120	----
121	* BecomingTheMask: Not quite; he's the mask Ritsu desperately wanted to become since he based his appearance and personality off of Shingo. Ultimately, Ritsu's CharacterDevelopment at the halfway point of the anime has him abandon Shingo's appearance in favor of being himself.
122	* CanonForeigner: He's exclusive to the anime adaptation.
123	* {{Foil}}: To Ritsu. Shingo was knowledgeable of human emotions and concepts of happiness, and was easily able to draw in people. Ritsu, on the other hand, was socially awkward and was unable to try and forge a connection, much to his own frustration.
124	* RedHerring: He's initially presumed to be Ritsu Shikishima, who returned to the real world via the Judgment Gate and left the rest of the Go-Home Club behind. In actuality, Shingo is the person Ritsu based his Mobius avatar on.
125	* WalkingSpoiler: He's only formally introduced in the penultimate episode, and his physical appearance spoils the fact that Ritsu based his own appearance in Mobius off of him.
