4	----
5	!!Akiba Freedom Fighters
6	They are a group of {{Otaku}} that always hangs out at the MOGRA cafe in Akiba. They act as a volunteer group and does things like pick up litter, guide tourists, and occasionally help keep Akihabara peaceful by intervening in fights.
7	!!! Tropes shared by the group
8	* BadassCrew: They can handle their own in fights, even with the physically enhanced synthisters.
9	* ImprobableWeaponUser: Aside from [[BareFistedMonk Tohko]], none of them use anything resembling an actual weapon.
10	* JumpedAtTheCall: As soon as everyone learns of what happened to the protagonist and Shizuku's mission with the synthisters, they immediately offer their help in spite of just being regular people.
11	* {{Otaku}}: To varying degrees, the most hardcore being Kaito, Kati, Nana and Nanashi.
12	* TrueCompanions: They will look out for each other through thick and thin. The first thing the protagonist gets from the other members are messages of worry when he doesn't show up at MOGRA for three days.

15	!!!'''Nanashi'''
16	!!!Tropes for Nanashi/the protagonist/Yuuki Kasugano
17	[[quoteright:230:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_9011.JPG]]
18	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RyotaOhsaka (Japanese), Creator/SpikeSpencer (English)
19	----
20	* BigEater: Becomes one after becoming a synthister. One comment on the in-game social media site Pitter stated he ate a bunch of meals in under 20 minutes.
21	* CanonName: Nanashi’s name in the manga adaptation is “Yuuki Kasugano”.
22	* ChickMagnet: He somehow becomes one after the start of the story. Tohko, Shizaku, Shion, Rin, Nana, the officer you pay your bail with, the arena manager Antoinette, all the girls who crush on you as your reputation increases, and even (though she doesn't have a route in the original game) Kati. All in all, not bad for a hopeless otaku.
23	* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: He frequently gets jokey dialogue options that make him come off as this (though if you choose too many of them early on [[PressStartToGameOver you can get yourself killed before the game even properly starts.]])
24	* FaustianRebellion: He uses his Synthister powers to fight the people that made him a Synthister.
25	* FightingYourFriend: Nanashi fights against the Akiba Freedom Fighters at the end of Shion’s Route.
26	* HelloInsertNameHere: His official name is Nanashi[[note]]literally meaning "no name"[[/note]], but the player can change his name to whatever.
27	* HumanoidAbomination: On top of being a Synthister, Shizuku suggests he's "something beyond a Synthister."
28	* IdiotHero: Many of his dialogue options go into this area.
29	* ImprobableWeaponUser: Aside from the common weapons such as boxing/combat gloves and wooden katanas/batons, he can hurt synthisters with things like posters, plushies, and glow sticks.
30	* OurVampiresAreDifferent: He's a synthister, an artificially created vampire. Unlike other synthisters who suck life energy, he can apparently re-energize by simply eating a lot.
31	* SuperReflexes: This, and SuperStrength, are the perks of being a Synthister.
32	* TakingTheBullet: Takes a bad hit from Zenya for Shizuku in the beginning, necessitating the familiar pact to save him.
33	* TaughtByExperience: One of his dialogue options is to say he picked up a few combat skills "from the fires of Tohko's wrath."
34	* UnskilledButStrong: His fighting style amounts to GoodOldFisticuffs, and he is usually very clumsy with any weapon he picks up. That said, as a Synthister, his physical ability is much higher than normal.

37	[[folder:Tohko]]
38	!!!'''Tohko Sagisaka'''
39	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ChiwaSaito (Japanese), Creator/MichelleRuff (English)
40	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_9018.JPG]]
41	----
42	* BadassAbnormal: [[spoiler:She becomes Rin's familiar in her ending]]
43	* BareFistedMonk: Her starting weapons are a pair of sports gloves.
44	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Had Rin hypnotize her to believe she can [[BloodKnight slay a thousand synthisters.]] [[GoneHorriblyRight She's more susceptible than she thought]] and quickly goes off the rails into a fighting frenzy.
45	* ChildhoodFriends: Played with; she claims to have this relationship with the protagonist and Nana, but in practice, they were mostly just acquaintances until recently.
46	* ChildhoodFriendRomance: If the protagonist ends up on her route.
47	* {{Otaku}}: Possibly the least nerdy one in the entire cast, with the exception of Shizuku, who is initially not familiar with the culture.
48	* {{Tomboy}}: She acts more boyish than the other girls in the group, and in one conversation, asks whether she should start acting more girly.

52	!!!'''Shizuku Tokikaze'''
53	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SachikaMisawa (Japanese), Creator/BrinaPalencia (English)

55	----
56	* BraidsOfAction: She sports double braids with a blue bow tie on each of them.
57	* ButNowIMustGo: [[spoiler:Leaves Akiba in most the endings, out of guilt for her actions. Her good ending has Nanashi convincing her to stay in Akiba.]]

59	* FinalBoss: [[spoiler: Of Shion's route, alongside a bunch of cops]].
60	* FirstGirlWins: If the protagonist ends up on her route.
61	* MustMakeAmends: [[spoiler:Turning Nanashi into her familiar and making him "inhuman" weighs heavily on her conscience throughout the story. Stopping her people's best chance of avoiding eventual extinction causes her to leave Akiba in order to take responsibility for foiling Soga's plan]].
62	* MysteriousWaif: Her introduction has her [[BigDamnHeroes barging in and saving the protagonist's ass]] from Zenya and his goons, but up until the latter half of the game, she's only known as a synthister hunter.
63	* {{Otaku}}: Constant exposure to Akihabara’s culture and her tenure with the Akiba Freedom Fighters eventually converts Shizuku into one. What sold the deal is the anime [[MagicalGirl Striprism]], where she falls in love with the main character Lili and is even bribed by Shion with a rare Lili figurine.
64	* OlderThanTheyLook: Shizuku is somewhere over 170 years old due to her Nighteater heritage when she is biologically closer to 17.
65	* ParasolOfPain: Her weapon is her umbrella, White Rainbow.
66	* TheStoic: She rarely speaks above a hushed tone.

73	----
74	* AscendedExtra: In the original version of the game, she is mainly a side character with hints that she has some dark secrets. In the Director's Cut version, not only does she have her own route, it's advertised as the "True Ending".
75	* AssKicksYou: Her unique weapon charge attack has her doing this.
76	* {{Malaproper}}: As a young Finlander who traveled to Japan, her grasp on the language is still a little shaky, especially when it comes to metaphors.
77	* {{Meido}}: Her default outfit.
78	* PervertRevengeMode: Her [[CombinationAttack Unison Strip]] has Kati whaling on a creeper that escaped Nanashi’s ambush and attempts to hit on or strip her.
79	* PhenotypeStereotype: She's a blonde haired, blue eyed Finnish.
80	* PlatonicLifePartners: Even if her route isn't followed, she still digs Nanashi and thinks he's a pretty cool dude.

87	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/DaikiYamashita (Japanese), Creator/ToddHaberkorn (English) (Kaito)
88	----
89	* FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: Kaito is the foolish sibling, having dropped out of school pursuing otaku interests to Yuto’s responsible sibling, having attended university.
90	* GuestStarPartyMember: Kaito joins Nanashi on one of his patrols in Main Street, fending off Daishishon Pharmaceutical’s goons looking for Rin. Unfortunately, he lacks a [[CombinationAttack Unison Strip]] with Nanashi.
91	* {{Keet}}: Kaito Tachibana.
92	* MrExposition: Yuto will tell you how [[RelationshipValues each girl feels about you during the game]] if you ask him. The description of his weapon even outright calls him this.
93	* PolarOppositeTwins: With Kaito as the [[RedOniBlueOni Red Oni to Yuto's Blue Oni]].
94	* RelationshipValues: Yuto is the one that keeps track of the girl’s affection ratings for the protagonist.
95	[[/folder]]
96
97	[[folder:Pops]]
98	!!!'''Kihachi "Pops" Sugiyama'''
99	->'''Voiced by:''' Toshitsugu Takashina (Japanese), Creator/TaliesinJaffe (English)
100	----
101	* CoolOldGuy: He's the oldest member of the Freedom Fighters by at least an entire generation.
102	* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: He explicitly states to Shizuku that he prefers to be called "Pops" ("Master" in Japanese).
103	* GenreSavvy: Frequently applies HeroTropes and similar things to the Freedom Fighters' current situation... and he's totally right on each instance.
104	* RetiredBadass:
105	** [[spoiler:Antoinette, the Arena Manager, mentions his strength in passing. Also, later in the game, MOGRA Headquarters get attacked by a crowd of synthisters. Guess who can send one flying with one punch.]]
106	** [[spoiler:You can also feel his EXPLOSIVE Punches in Shizuku's route.]]
107	** [[spoiler:And you can fight him in Shion's route.]]

110	[[folder:Nana]]
111	!!!'''Nana'''
112	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AyaSuzaki (Japanese), Creator/CindyRobinson (English)
113	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_9022.JPG]]
114	----
115	* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Subverted. She gives off the impression at first, but she shows her true colors later on. Especially if you do her side missions.
116	* BrotherSisterIncest: Discussed. She starts to bring up the idea in one dialog (without explicitly saying so), only to decide that it's something that's only cool in anime and does a verbal backpedal. Doesn't stop her from idle fantasies involving the Broadwarrior, though.
117	* ClingyJealousGirl: Didn't get along with Shizuku when she found her hanging out with her Brother.
118	* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: Parodied. Despite everyone knowing her name, she's frequently referred to as simply "the sister."
119	* {{Hikikomori}}: Doesn't like to spend a lot of time outdoors, and will often refuse to accompany you on her fetch quests. It stems from a fight/argument she had with some school friends, causing her to withdraw from the rest of society, which you can help fix at the end of her side quests if you want.
120	* PungeonMaster: She makes a load of bro puns when addressing our brotagonist in the English localization.
121	* VerbalTic: In the English dub, she makes a lot of bro puns, e.g. Brotagonist, Brovert, and Brobocop.

126	!!!'''Rin [[spoiler:Tokikaze]]'''
127	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/HisakoKanemoto (Japanese), Creator/EdenRiegel (English)
128	----
129	* BigDamnHeroes: Saves you from Zenya Amo during your first fight against him.
130	* CutenessProximity: Rin absolutely melts when she meets [[{{Moe}} Nana]], cuddling her and showering her with affection to Nana’s own discomfort due to the amount of social contact involved.
131	* IdolSinger: For Daishihon Pharmaceuticals.
132	* InstrumentOfMurder: Her default weapon is her Electric Keyboard.
133	* GirlishPigtails: Reaches up to her hips.
134	* LastGirlWins: If Nanashi ends up romancing her in her endings.
135	* MysticalWhiteHair: She has silver hair and she is [[spoiler:a vampire.]]
136	* PlayfulCatSmile: She shows a cat smile quite often, especially when she's scheming (or at least pretending to).
137	* {{Tsundere}}: To [[spoiler:her older sister]] Shizuku and later on to Nanashi. Rin eventually defrosts to Shizuku, but remains a tsuntsun to Nanashi.
138	[[/folder]]
139
140	[[folder:Shion]]
141	!!!'''Shion Kasugai'''
142	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ErikoNakamura (Japanese), Creator/MeganHollingshead (English)
143	----
144	* CoolBigSis: Likes acting this way towards Nanashi, especially in her route where she actually refers to herself as his big sister twice.
145	* DanceBattler: Some of her combos ends with her using Ballet.
146	* ForScience: Shion’s reason for looking into the Synthester attacks is to catch one and conduct research on them.
147	* HonestCorporateExecutive: She's only in it for the research and discoveries for the good of the people.
148	[[/folder]]
149
150	[[folder:Antroinette]]
151	!!!'''Antoinette'''
152	----
153	* AmbiguousGender: Antoinette comes across as a woman, but there is a lot of speculation that ''she'' is actually a ''he''.
154	* BadassPreacher: We don't actually see Antoinette perform {{Miko}} duties but (s)he certainly can put up a good fight.
155	* DullEyesOfUnhappiness: Antoinette's eyes always look empty and a little sad.
156	* {{Miko}}: Antoinette wears a traditional outfit with white jacket and red hakama.
157	* TechnicolorEyes: Antoinette has purple eyes, which increase the mysterious aura (s)he gives off.
158	[[/folder]]
159
160	!!Antagonists
161	[[folder:Zenya]]
162	!!!'''Zenya Amo'''
163	->'''Voiced by:''' Daichi Kanbara (Japanese), Creator/ChristopherCoreySmith (English)
164	----
165	* DiscOneFinalBoss: He is initially believed to be under the Synthister attacks and the one who converted Nanashi into one until TheReveal.
166	* LargeHam: Increasingly as he reveals his beliefs about {{Otaku}} and his agenda, and especially during his VillainousBreakdown.
167	* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: Claims he will level up after defeating Nanashi and Shizuku, and that his stats are higher than other "mob characters".
168	* {{Otaku}}: While this isn't immediately apparent, it becomes clear after fighting him in the battle arena, and [[spoiler:when you later encounter him hunting Synthisters in Shion's Route]].
169	* StarterVillain: The first bad guy you meet and serves as a mid-game boss.
170	* TechnicolorBlade: The blade of his weapon, Crimson Death, is red.
171	* ThisCannotBe: Once you defeat him in the arena.
172	* VillainousBreakdown: Once you do enough damage to him to strip some of his clothing, he starts to suffer from this.
173	[[/folder]]
174
175	[[folder:Soga]]
176	!!!'''Soga Kagutsuki'''
177	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RyotaTakeuchi (Japanese), Creator/RichardEpcar (English)
178	----
179	* BadassLongcoat: Sports a rather impressive one.
180	* {{BFS}}: His Izayoi. It gets better when he unlocks its Izayoi Oboro mode.
181	* BigBad: Soga is the one ultimately pulling the strings behind the Synthister attacks and Daishishon Pharmaceuticals shady dealings and experiments.
182	* EarlyBirdCameo: He shows up far, far earlier than his official introduction, shadowing Nanashi and Kati while on their shopping trip. It's very easy just to dismiss him as another "I'm such a mysterious wanderer" cosplayer at that point.
183	* WellIntentionedExtremist: [[spoiler:His species, the Nighteaters, are dying out. To save them, he is attempting to harvest the Life Energy of the humans of the world, starting with those in Akihabara.]]
184	[[/folder]]

191	* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Though he's not killed, the BigBad tells him to get out of his sight after you defeat Koma, which is essentially the same thing.
