9 | ->Voiced by: Creator/TakuyaEguchi\ |
10 | Portrayed by: Naoya Kitagawa |
11 | |
12 | Kouta is a NiceGuy often surrounded by friends. His favorite character is Pompompurin. |
13 | |
14 | * AdaptationalPersonalityChange: In the original blog, Kouta was seen as a NiceGuy who gets along with everyone. In the anime, he's a gloomy, self-conscious boy who doesn't really have a lot of friends. The stage play takes cues from the anime and also makes Kouta look OvershadowedByAwesome by the rest of the Sanrio Boys. |
15 | * AnimalMotifs: Kouta is compared to a dog because of his loyalty, which matches Pompompurin, a golden retriever. |
16 | * ButtMonkey: In the stage play, he tends to become the butt of the jokes and is overall seen as less talented than the rest of the Sanrio Boys, the source of his anxiety. |
17 | * FriendlessBackground: In the anime, he did have two pals, but, sadly, he couldn't share his UnmanlySecret with them. |
18 | * TheGenericGuy: Addressed in the anime. He starts to get a complex about feeling like he's on the sidelines with his friends because he's this compared to their more unique appearances and personalities, their accomplishments, and their popularity. |
19 | * TheHero: He's the main protagonist in the [[Anime/SanrioBoys anime]]. |
20 | * HeroicBSOD: In the anime, after watching the Miracle Gift Parade in [[Creator/{{Sanrio}} Sanrio Puroland]], Kouta becomes inspired to stand in the spotlight by organizing a musical. However, at the same time, he starts realizing he is nothing special compared to the rest of the Sanrio Boys, who are unique and popular in their own groups. This causes Kouta to start overworking himself and becoming a ControlFreak to the point where he gets sick, and when he discovers the rest of the boys had gotten help to finish up his job, he finally snaps at the thought of being easily replaced. |
21 | * MyGreatestFailure: He never forgave himself for yelling at his grandmother and failing to apologize to her. |
22 | * NiceGuy: He's fairly polite and almost immediately goes to help a lost little girl, despite the risk of being MistakenForPedophile. In the manga, the girls describe Kouta as a BoyNextDoor with a "healing smile." |
23 | * OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent: Among his group, he sticks out as the least quirky and tends to have more mundane problems. |
24 | * OvershadowedByAwesome: In the anime, Kouta has a HeroicBSOD over the rest of the Sanrio Boys being more unique in their own ways while he's unable to stand out. |
25 | * SecondYearProtagonist: Hits all the benchmarks for the trope, up to and including his emotional crisis finally being explored this year of his high school life. |
26 | * UnmanlySecret: He treats his love of Pompompurin as this, ever since he got bullied for it in elementary school. |
27 | * VirginShaming: In the stage play, the other Sanrio Boys call him a "wizard" (basically a slang term calling him a 40-year-old virgin). |

34 | ->Voiced by: Creator/SomaSaito\ |
35 | Portrayed by: Hiroki Sasamori |
36 | |
37 | Yuu's favorite character is My Melody, and he often wears pink hair clips that match her hood. He gets along with everyone, except for his younger sister, Yuri. |
38 | |
39 | * ADayInTheLimelight: Yuu is featured heavily in the manga adaptation for ''Sanrio Boys ~Watashi, Koi wo Shirimashita~'' since the story focuses on him and his relationship with Rio. |
40 | * BerserkButton: He gets annoyed if you call his love of Sanrio gross (in Yuri's case), or a freak (like Ryo did). He is willing to even respond with violence, if agitated enough. |
41 | ** If you try to do this on Shunsuke and Kouta, he won't wait. |
42 | * BigBrotherInstinct: Yuu really hopes to get along with his sister and calls her cute. In the manga, the boys conclude that he likes My Melody because she reminds him of his sister. |
43 | * BigEater: As shown in episode 5, he has an immense appetite and even takes FoodAsBribe. |
44 | * TheCharmer: Never seen without a group of girls to chat with. |
45 | * ChildhoodFriends: He's been friends with Shunsuke since childhood. |
46 | * LoveConfession: He confesses to Rio in the manga. |
47 | * MySisterIsOffLimits: In the anime, he gets irritated when Yuri invites a boy over to their home, and he is clearly against her dating anyone. |
48 | * RealMenCanCook: A pretty much self-taught case. He even has his own recipe book. |
49 | * YouRemindMeOfX: He admits My Melody reminds him of his little sister, whom is the person he wants to connect with the most. |

57 | |
58 | Seiichirou is a member of the archery club. His favorite character is Cinnamoroll because he's fluffy. |
59 | |
60 | * TheBigGuy: For the main 5 guys. |
61 | * HeroicBuild: Even his school uniform doesn't manage to fully hide his muscular build. |
62 | * {{Hunk}}: More rugged and muscular than Shunsuke. |
63 | * NotSoStoic: He may be collected most of the time, but the blog shows repeatedly he can show strong emotions on his face, like pleasure or embarassment. |

70 | Portrayed by: Yuu Miyazaki |
71 | |
72 | Ryo is a beautiful underclassman whose favorite characters are Lala and Kiki (Little Twin Stars). |
73 | |
74 | * CuteBookworm: He's part of the library committee at school, and he's cute as a button with his short stature and TaremeEyes. |
75 | * ButNotTooForeign: He lived in England when he was little. |
76 | * DependingOnTheWriter: In the anime, he's often very sarcastic DeadpanSnarker, especially towards Yuu, and is generally very pessimistic. In the original blog, manga, and game, he is nothing like that, however. |
77 | * FashionableAsymmetry: Ryo wears pink shoelaces on one shoe and blue shoelaces on the other, symbolizing for Lala and Kiki. |
78 | * IWantToBeARealMan: He's doted upon and fawned over by guys and girls alike for his adorable looks. He'd much rather not be cute, and it bothers him a lot that he's not as masculine as he'd like to be. |
79 | * MuscleAngst: The first thing he does when he sees weights is lament his less than 'masculine' build. |
80 | * ShrinkingViolet: He's very shy around strangers. |

86 | ->Voiced by: Jun Oosuka\ |
87 | Portrayed by: Tsubasa Yoshizawa |
88 | |
89 | Shunsuke is TheStoic of the group and adores Hello Kitty, who he refers to respectfully as "Kitty-san" instead of her nickname, "Kitty-chan." |
90 | |
91 | * AffectionateNickname: Yuu calls him "Shushu". |
92 | * AnimalMotifs: Yuu explicitly compares him to a cat in terms of personality and speculates that it was the catalyst for Shunsuke to grow to like Hello Kitty. |
93 | * ChickMagnet: He's a member of the soccer team and is very popular with the girls. |
94 | * ChildhoodFriends: He's been friends with Yuu since childhood. |
95 | * LiteralMinded: Briefly in episode 2, when he responds to Kouta [[ItMakesSenseInContext saying that he would like to be more like Yuu]] by saying that having two Yuus around would suck. |
96 | * MusclesAreMeaningful: In episode 2, he easily lifts an old fridge on his own, something that Kouta and Yuu couldn't do even with their combined efforts. |
97 | * TheStoic: It is very difficult to get him to be emotional. |
98 | ** NotSoStoic: Episode 4, on the other hand, shows that he has limits. |

111 | * RuleAbidingRebel: ''Wants'' to be a delinquent, but only ends up cribbing the style, since that's as far as he can emotionally go. |
112 | * LastEpisodeNewCharacter: He makes a [[TheCameo cameo]] in the final episode of the anime. |
113 | * TallDarkAndHandsome: Definitively this, and [[https://78.media.tumblr.com/310aae5560139cd8a041f31c52fc5b4a/tumblr_p2tdkzMjt81v2lck1o1_500.jpg the official artwork is very straight-forward about it]]. |

187 | !!'''Yuri Mizuno''' |
188 | -> Played by: Creator/AkaneFujita |
189 | |
190 | Yuri is Yuu's little sister and is currently a third year in middle school. She adores love stories, but finds Yuu gross because of his fascination with My Melody. |
191 | |
192 | * AdaptationalJerkass: Yuri is pretty rude to Yuu in the blog, game, and manga, but she's not quite as mean towards him and her disgust in the manga is PlayedForLaughs. The anime makes her unlikeable, with her being pretty much emotionally abusive towards him. |
193 | * [[AloofBigBrother Aloof Little Sister]] |
194 | * AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Inverted. Yuri mostly finds Yuu annoying, though it's fair to say that Yuu has his fair share of moments. |
195 | * BrokenPedestal: Growing up, she would hope that Yuu grew up to be a cool, handsome, masculine older brother. What she ended up getting--a somewhat motherly boy who likes cute characters-- didn't exactly live up to that ideal. |
196 | * GirlishPigtails: Yuri wears her hair in twin tails. This makes Yuu think of her whenever he looks at My Melody, which is why he likes My Melody so much. |
197 | * {{Tsundere}}: Yuri is a type A tsundere, where she's aloof and rude most of the time but secretly kind. She acts more this way towards Yuu. |

203 | |
204 | Macchi and Tsucchi are Kouta's old friends before meeting the other Sanrio Boys. |
205 | |
206 | * AllThereInTheManual: Their full names show up on the casting list. |
207 | * DeconstructedCharacterArchetype: ThoseTwoGuys always end up watching the protagonist drift away from them in favour of the more interesting main cast. ''These'' ones actually react to it, with one getting jealous while the other sadly accepts this state of affairs. [[spoiler:By the end, they've both accepted that they're not Kouta's best friends anymore, but they've accepted that he's much healthier and happier with his new social circle and his resolve to be himself, in a non-romantic variant on IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy.]] |
208 | * HiddenDepths: Despite calling it weird, the pair have a couple of favorite Sanrio characters themselves according to the second episode's credits sequence. Macchi likes Gudetama, while Tsucchi likes Kiki and Lala. |
209 | * OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Due to not having the same prominence as the others, they're only referred to by Kouta's nicknames for them whenever they appear. |
210 | * SatelliteCharacter: Macchi's character is practically defined by trying to stay friends with Kouta, going as far as stressing his old "Best Friend" status when he shows up. Even Kouta flat out demoting him to "acquaintance" in front of his new friends doesn't deter him. |
211 | * ThoseTwoGuys: A cross between this and Kouta's SocialCircleFiller, since he mentions that despite having friends he can hang out with he still felt like he was alone. They even know that they're reduced to the latter trope, as they tell Kouta they haven't seen him in a long while by Episode 6. |
