Main Characters

    Neil "Nini" Bowman 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_neil.png

Voiced by: Haiquing Xia (Chinese), Daiki Yamashita (Japanese)
An Australian goat demon who moves to China based on his fascination with Chinese culture.
  • Adaptational Nice Guy: Neil isn't as innocent in the original webcomic, where it's a running joke he likes to eat souls. Granted, they're usually animal souls...
  • Affectionate Nickname: He lets his friends call him Nini.
  • All of the Other Reindeer: Neil tells Lily about his time at demon school and how he was looked down upon because he wasn't acting like any of the other demons, preferring to do good deeds over evil ones. He then somberly adds that he couldn't even call himself a proper demon and felt like an outcast that no one understood.
  • Animal Lover: He adores animals and gladly works at a pet-shop where the hundreds of normal and mythical species of animals regularly scratch him up. The main reason he goes to China is because he loves pandas. Unfortunately, most animals do not feel the same way towards him.
  • Animal Motif: Goats. He has goat horns and sometimes turns into one depending on the situation.
  • Bad Liar: He's not good at hiding that he has a crush on Lily and when he tries to ask Ira for advice by pretending it's for a friend of his, he quickly slips up and runs away embarrassed.
  • Because You Were Nice to Me: He pretty much instantly falls in love with Lily because she was one of the few people who admired his capacity for good instead of shunning it like the rest of his demon kin. Although the first time it was by accident thanks to Cupid, the story reveals he still crushes on her.
  • Butt-Monkey: Not very often, but a lot of jokes in the series are paid at expense for his misery.
  • Curb-Stomp Battle: He easily beats up Nick and sets up the situation to look like he was attacking Neil.
  • Crazy Jealous Guy: When Evan comes to visit, he's jealous of the other angel's close friendship with Lily. However, Evan shows Neil he's truly a nice person, letting Neil drop a lot of his animosity towards him. Hilariously, it isn't Lily who Evan likes, it's Neil.
  • Defence Mechanism Superpower: He will unconsciously summon flames to wreathe his body for self-protection, demonstrated when trying to capture the hell snake.
  • Evil Overlord: All of the other supernatural clans fear that Neil will become this, thus he must be under strict surveillance.
  • Holy Burns Evil: Even though Neil isn't outwardly evil, holy items still burn him shown when Lynn thinks giving Neil a bible as a Christmas present was a good idea.
  • Identical Grandson: Anthony once tells Neil that he was felled by a demon that looked just like Neil during the great Angel-Demon war years ago. Neil immediately puts two and two together and realizes that his maternal grandfather was likely the one who did it, since the latter has a phoenix feather as one of his war trophies.
  • Light Is Good: This is his general color palette and he's an incredibly kind person.
  • Mystical White Hair: He has short white hair.
  • Nice Guy: Despite other monster representatives fearing that Neil will become the demon king, he is nothing but sweet and nice to everyone he meets. This also is what got him in trouble a lot during his school years since couldn't bring himself to do anything evil and feels he's not a real demon. He also refuses to leave Da Mao in his werewolf state even though he's late to meet up with Lily for their date.
  • Our Demons Are Different: Neil has horns and ears of a goat along with a red devil tail. Also when Lynn cleanses an area, he turns into a goat.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: At the end of the first season as Neil is sleeping his eyes snap open to reveal two glowing red eyes, likely his demonic powers slowly growing. When Neil awakens the Demon Lord, he has full red eyes.
  • The Runaway: He runs away from his home to China to live among humans since he felt it was better than living with demons whom he couldn't connect with. He still takes time to email his parents and let them know he's fine.
  • Shapeshifting: He is capable of doing so, and Humanshifted to get by in day to day life.
  • Ship Tease: He falls for Lily after she empathizes with him about feeling like an outsider and has a Crush Blush whenever he's around her.
  • Sibling Yin-Yang: Unlike his brother Nick who's rude, manipulative and mean to others, Neil is kind and accommodating towards others. Also while his color palette is fairly light, his brother's is darker.
  • Soul Eating: Neil's diet consists entirely of the souls of living things. This also includes plant life, in a variation on the trope.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: He shares his mother's white hair and delicate features.
  • Super Drowning Skills: When in water, Neil drops like a rock. Even shapeshifting into a body built for swimming doesn't save him.
  • Technicolor Fire: He can create purple flames sometimes at will.
  • The Unfavorite: In Chapter 153, Nick discovers that beyond Neil simply not liking him growing up, the latter secretly harbored feelings of resentment regarding their treatment in the family. Neil often thought his father favored Nick and was mad that he didn't treat his "real" (full-blooded) son equal or better than him.

    Ira Blood 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_ira.png

Voiced by: Xin Teng (Chinese), Jun Fukuyama (Japanese)
An English vampire who's also an otaku and an online friend of Neil. He is the one who brings Neil to 1031, as he offers the latter a spare room in the apartment.
  • Adaptational Attractiveness: Played with. His casual appearance in the webcomic has him with paler skin, a rounder face, and a noticeable patch of facial hair. The donghua changes his appearance to make him look more obviously Western (elongated face, squarer jaw), in addition to giving him a new still-red hat and reducing his soul patch. On the other hand, this also makes him look more gaunt in the donghua, while he doesn't look too different than the other characters in the original manhua.
  • Beginner's Luck: Ira intended on doing Luis a solid and play an extra for a movie, but despite his lack of acting experience he somehow stole the show and launched into national stardom, even receiving his own series along the way. He gives it up completely because he preferred the lower stakes of being an Internet content creator compared to the stress of big name fame.
  • Big Brother Instinct: In the donghua he's protective of Neil and when he sees him coming home all scratched up, he tearfully offers to give him money. When he stalks Neil to his workplace and find that he truly enjoys working there, he decides it's fine if Neil is happy.
    • He's also touched when Neil goes to ask him about falling in love while pretending it's for a friend.
  • Cute Little Fangs: He has a fang that pokes out of the side of his mouth.
  • Dark Is Evil: When he's tempted by Nick, he takes on a darker look to himself. Generally subverted whenever he goes back to his folks' home, as he's dressed in all blacks but he's still the same old Ira underneath.
  • Defector from Decadence: He for the most part shuns his elegant lifestyle from England in favor of playing around with the average human. His fascination with middle class life began when he stole a jumpsuit-like article of clothing to wear.
  • Exhausted Eyebags: Likely due to his life as a streamer, he has bags under his eyes.
  • Friendly Neighborhood Vampire: He may be a vampire, but he's generally a nice person.
  • Fur Against Fang: His donghua counterpart seems to not really like Da Mao as he dragged him back to the apartment mainly to get rid of the hell snake and rabbit in his room. In the original webcomic, they do get along better.
  • Goth: His family keeps this as their cultural hat. Before moving to Beijing, Ira was also forced to rock a goth look in order to fit in with his folks, and wears similar outfits when he visits them.
  • He Cleans Up Nicely: Casual Ira is a bit of a slob, with baggy hoodies, long plain shirts, and a red knit cap (with or without facial hair depending on the adaptation). When he has to act the part of his vampire heritage however, he goes from average streamer to gothic prettyboy in an instant. Later on in the webcomic he doesn't try as hard, wearing the outfit but not bothering with the makeup or shaving his goatee.
  • Horror Hunger: If he goes too long without drinking any blood he'll start to attack anyone nearby. Neil nearly receives the sharp end of his teeth before managing to drag him outside to buy some blood boba for him.
  • Interclass Friendship: Back when he was still living with his wealthy parents, he struck up a friendship with the poor vampire Nicholas. While he's living in Beijing, this is averted, as he's middle class like everyone else.
  • NEET: He's described as one in season 2 by Nick as he points out Ira never worked a day in his life.
  • Never Bareheaded: He's usually seen wearing some kind of red hat on his head. In the webcomic, his main hat was a cat-ear hat, but in the donghua it's a chullo. His top hat from when he still lived with his parents was especially fancy.
  • Otaku: He chooses to become this full time after he decides to leave his family behind to pursue his interests in playing video games and streaming.
  • The Prankster: Entire strips are devoted to Ira pulling pranks on his flatmates, with varying degrees of success. His pranks can go too far and backfire on him, especially if he's been dogging Lynn for a while. This is part of the reason why Lynn dislikes Ira the most of all the residents.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: When he's put in full vampire mode thanks to Nick.
  • Skin-Tone Disguise: When he was a schoolboy, he would occasionally put on makeup to pass as a human so he could play with the locals and obtain toys from them. Unsurprisingly he became a relative expert at understanding human behavior because of these ventures.
  • Shipper on Deck: He's all for Neil pursuing Lily and tries to give him some advice on how to woo her.
  • Vampires Are Rich: He comes from a very wealthy family, and he left behind, amongst other things, a castle and a multinational company.
  • Vampires Sleep in Coffins: Like many vampires in-universe, he keeps a coffin in his room as a bed. Apparently this is a custom shared with all varieties of undead folk, including Abu and Luis.
  • Vegetarian Vampire: While he does drink real blood, it's shown that vampires in this modern society can get by drinking artificial blood too (one such station even acting as a bubble tea shop), and he tries not to drink directly from humans.
  • Weakened by the Light: If he goes outside in the day, Ira has to wear a lot of clothes that cover his body and a wide-brimmed hat.

    Lynn Angel 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_lynn.png

Voiced by: Xianghai Hao (Chinese), Kaito Ishikawa (Japanese)
An angel and landlord of the group's apartment who is a stickler for rules.
  • Big Brother Instinct: He keeps notes on Lily and Neil when they go on dates, and it's clear he's incredibly protective over Lily even to the point of threatening Neil at gunpoint.
  • Butt-Monkey: Nothing seems to go Lynn's way. He's on red alert with anything involving Lily, gets tricked by Nick on occasion, and put into humiliating situations often.
  • The Comically Serious: He rarely breaks from his stoic attitude, which leads to a lot of humor from others around him. He's a little less stoic in the webcomic, notably in the Christmas special, which sees him happily burst out into "Santa Claus is Coming to Town."
  • Comically Small Bribe: When the others refuse to dress up as angels for his Christmas card, he offers to give them a month free of rent. They immediately dress up and pose.
  • Did Not Think This Through: When he initially shows off his holy powers to Neil, he forgets that Neil and Ira are considered unholy, which turns them into their basic animal forms. He also seems to forget how giving a cross and bible for the two as Christmas gifts wasn't a good idea as the bible even burns Neil's hand when he touches it. Played for drama later on, when he overestimates the power of his halo and almost permanently damaged Nick's eyes with its holy light.
  • Fantastic Racism: Lynn's fear of aliens turns into this in Luis' All Saints Alliance script, since the start of the War Arc that makes up a critical movie in the series begins when Lynn murders alien teammate Stu Deshun for no other reason than the fact that he hates aliens.
  • Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: He's the most responsible person in the 1031 apartment, whereas Lily is a bit more carefree and impulsive.
  • Gender-Blender Name: "Lynn" can be gender neutral and was used by men in the past, but in the 21st century it's more associated with girls.
  • Holy Halo: Like all angels of his type, he has a detachable halo floating above his head.
    • Mundane Utility: The thing's incredibly useful in the day to day, and can be used for anything like cleaning, electricity, or as a weapon.
  • Improbable Weapon User: He uses his halo when fighting or purifying an area and it works.
  • Light Is Good: He's an angelic being and normally dresses in light colors, so this is a given.
  • Long-Haired Pretty Boy: While he was still finding himself, he had long, back-length hair in adolescence. Apparently he was pretty enough for a younger Nick to want to ask him out.
  • My Sister Is Off-Limits: The instant he realizes someone has feelings for Lily, Lynn becomes overprotective. Even if he likes Neil, Lynn does everything in his power to either make sure the latter doesn't end up with her, or failing that, doesn't hurt her.
  • Neat Freak: Most of his scenes show him cleaning something up, and prefers to keep the apartment as neat as possible. He will however get hasty when the landlord comes to inspect.
  • Not So Above It All: He's straitlaced most of the time, but even his isn't above being petty or laughing at immature humor (such as a rock shaped like a butt).
  • Parental Substitute: While on paper Lynn is Lily's brother, he was just gifted her by his teacher when she materialized. He does double duty as a father figure as well as an older brother figure from then on.
  • Stern Teacher: He makes sure his students follow his many rules (even when he doesn't exactly follow them), and at the apartment he does act like this towards the others who sometimes refer to him as "Lynn Laoshi".
  • Sibling Yin-Yang: Where his sister Lily is extroverted and outgoing, he's introverted and more reserved.
  • Significant Birth Date: Lynn, who is a teacher, has his birthday fall on Teacher's Day in China, September 9.
  • The Stoic: His expression rarely changes, and his tone is usually calm and collected. When his cool facade does fade, it's usually due to a hilarious situation occurring.
  • Team Mom: He does most of the cooking and housework, the 1031 residents rely on him to resolve major disputes like a parent would, and he regularly scolds the rowdy lot when things go south. It helps that he's also a responsible older brother and teacher, so he's used to being an authority figure.
  • Winged Humanoid: He's an angel with the typical white wings.

    Vladimir Elliot Kirilenko / "Da Mao" 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_damao.png

Voiced by: Yanzhe Du (Chinese), Tomoaki Maeno (Japanese)
A Russian werewolf who lives in the apartment.
  • Adaptational Backstory Change: In the original webcomic, Vlad came to the apartment alongside Ira and Abu and works as a programmer, but in the donghua he's sent to China to find Neil and keep tabs on him.
  • Because You Were Nice to Me: He tries to protect Neil from Nick because Neil had been nothing but kind to him. When Nick asks if he was betraying his brethren and his mission, this leads Da Mao to declare that he hasn't betrayed the werewolf council because there was no demon lord.
  • The Big Guy: He's noticeably larger than most of the other roommates and is quite muscular.
  • Big Brother Instinct: Shown more in season 2. When Nick comes over and tries to convince Da Mao to hand over the "demon lord", he immediately attacks Nick and says not to hurt Neil. He even ends up fighting with the werewolf council in order to protect Neil.
  • Born Unlucky: Da Mao is plagued with bad luck. When a lot of situations don't go his way or for whoever is around him this is usually the reason why.
  • Chick Magnet: He's easily one of the most popular men with the opposite sex, but the attention he attracts is a crowd made predominantly of middle aged and old ladies.
  • Cosmic Play Thing: Not counting him being Born Unlucky, the universe seems to enjoy treating him as the Butt-Monkey. The donghua showing him preparing to fully transform under a full moon, only for the clouds to continuously move back and forth, blocking him from seeing the moon and him to scream in frustration.
  • Crazy-Prepared: He had a plan A-L prepared when he went to China. Too bad for his horrible luck that they all ended up being useless.
  • Curb-Stomp Battle: He easily beats up the Hell rabbit and snake Neil brought over when it took Neil a lot longer to wrangle the two.
  • Cute Little Fang: He has a fang sticking out from his bottom lip most of the time.
  • Cuteness Proximity: He invokes this when he turns into a full wolf, which passersby mistake as a really big dog. He doesn't seem to mind it though as it leads to people petting and feeding him.
  • Fish out of Water: He gets a bit of a culture shock when he comes to China and has to learn Chinese from the local dogs.
  • Fur Against Fang: The donghua incarnation doesn't seem to be fond of Ira, especially during their first meeting. They get along much better in the webcomic.
  • Geek Physiques: Back when he first moved into 1031, he was a skinny, unassuming nerd with a face full of acne.
  • Large Runt: While Vlad is by and large the biggest and beefiest of the recurring male cast, he's actually smaller than all of his older brothers both in height and in muscle.
  • Massive Numbered Siblings: He's the one of thirteen siblings, with three older brothers and seven younger sisters and brothers.
  • Mr. Fanservice: Second only to Nick, Vlad is portrayed as a ruggedly attractive guy and gets plenty of shirtless scenes and strips in flattering, form-fitting clothes. Appropriately, he is cast as the "male fanservice character" in Luis' Marvel Cinematic Universe knockoff script.
  • Only Known by Their Nickname: Because his name is too long everyone just refers to him as "Da Mao" (long hair).
  • Our Werewolves Are Different: If he doesn't get to clearly see a full moon (real or an image of it), he only looks like a wolf-man. If he does see a full moon he turns into a full wolf.
  • Shapeshifting Excludes Clothing: Played with. If he shape-shifts from wolf back to human, he'll still have his underwear on, but not whatever he was wearing earlier. Most of the time he prefers to strip down to his underwear so he doesn't ruin his clothes.
  • Shipper on Deck: While not to the extent that Ira is, he doesn't seem to mind Neil pursuing Lily. He tries to encourage him to send her a text to ask her on a date and even drove him to the restaurant for the two to meet up (although due to his bad luck they hit a lot of detours).
  • Shirtless Scene: He's a sight for sore eyes and he's usually shown without a shirt on, especially when he shifts.
  • Speaks Fluent Animal: He can talk to and communicate with other dogs, as they were the ones who taught him Chinese.

Other Residents

    Luis Bite 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_luis.png

Voiced by: Hu Lian (Chinese), Ryōhei Kimura (Japanese)
An American zombie who dreams of being a Hollywood actor. His arm, Abi, is sentient and is rather famous itself.
  • Animate Body Parts: As far as we know, Abi is the only body part that has its own thoughts and feelings. It can even invade Luis' dreams to communicate. As of year 3, Abi is now his own entirely separate person.
  • Butt-Monkey: Nothing seems to go poor Luis' way. He gets stuck with the same zombie roles in every movie he's in, his friends upstage him when they get called in for bit work, and his own arm launched into super stardom way before he could even see a dedicated fanbase.
  • Brain Food: Luis' main diet. Eating brain can have side effects for zombies, such as gaining brief access to his meal's memories just before death.
  • Eagleland: Type 3. While he's portrayed as somewhat ignorant and commercialized (his insistence on starring in blockbuster films, his lack of knowledge of American folklore/monsters manifesting in listing American movie and comic franchises), he's a good man like the rest of the cast and is very friendly.
  • Look Both Ways: He apparently died getting hit by a vehicle. He doesn't really hold it against the driver, since Luis cites him (and Leonardo DiCaprio) as his major inspirations.
  • Our Zombies Are Different: Zombies are pretty much normal people save the whole "undead" thing. The only thing they have to worry about is skin decay, and they're capable of eating regular food instead of just brains. Luis still eats plenty of brain though.
  • Trademark Favorite Food: As most people in 1031 choose a stereotypical food from their home country, Luis of course chooses the hamburger.
  • Typecasting: He finds himself falling into the role of an undead extra when he wishes to be a lead or an action hero. To his credit, he did at least play a prominent role in a movie—as the real star's Companion Cube of a disembodied arm.

    Abu 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_abu.png

Voiced by: Xianghai Hao (seasons 1-2), Peng Sun (season 3) (Chinese), Shun Horie (Japanese)
A quiet Egyptian mummy.
  • Affectionate Nickname: Despite everything, Fu still has some fondness for Abu and calls him "Bu".
  • Arbitrarily Large Bank Account: While he lives a decently modest lifestyle, Abu has piles and piles of gold just laying around that he can casually pull out whenever things go too south. Justified, since as a mummy with a noticeably elaborate sarcophagus, he must have been a man of some wealth before his original death.
  • Beautiful All Along: Underneath his bandages, Abu is terrifying. However, if you put him in an area with a lot of moisture, his skin goes right back to normal and his delicate facial features become head-turningly handsome. This first occurs when he goes to a water park in Strip 176.
  • Bookworm: He's usually seen reading in a corner of the apartment.
  • Chick Magnet: As Luis later learns, Abu is mighty popular with girls for a mummy. In one chapter, he even secures a rent-free living space because his housemate is smitten with him.
  • Hidden Depths: He has some skills in playing the guitar and singing.
  • Kindhearted Cat Lover: He once resurrects a small community of stray cats as mummies because he loves them that much. While most of them were shipped off to Egypt, a few of them continued to stay with Abu and he continues to care for them.
  • Minor Major Character: He's presented in the first episode as one of Neil's new roommates, but rarely gets more screen-time compared to the others. The donghua lampshades this by pointing him out in episode 9, "Abu with only 1% of existence".
  • Mummy: This is what he is. His job is even playing prop at a museum.
  • The Nameless: In the donghua, he isn't given a name when Neil first arrives and Ira doesn't tell him. He's then named in episode 9.
  • Offscreen Romance: By 2019, Abu's in a relationship with a river spirit. We don't get to see them get together on screen, but apparently they hit it off immediately.
  • The Quiet One: Due to being Demoted to Extra in the donghua, Abu's animated counterpart rarely speaks and in most scenes he's just quietly reading. When he does hum a bit in episode 9, everyone doesn't realize it's him and scream that their apartment must be haunted.
  • The Unintelligible: In the comic, he's decently talkative and has no problems speaking with his fellow roommates. The catch is that he's muffled due to being under wraps, so his speech bubbles (which primarily consist of "woo") always come with a translation.

    Fu 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_fu.png

An ill-tempered magpie Abu reanimated as a mummy and keeps as a pet.


  • Games of the Elderly: He and the other magpies in Beijing have set up a mahjong circle, roughly equivalent to the kind of mahjong clubs that crop up around human senior citizens throughout the story.
  • Grumpy Old Man: The story writes Fu as if he's an elderly man in the body of a magpie, and he doesn't like to hide it. He also scolds Abu and the rest of 1031 on a regular basis.
  • Hidden Depths: Fu's a bird of many talents. He can easily play mahjong with the elderly, and he sews clothing for his neighbors.
  • Parrot Pet Position: Lao Fu often sits on Abu like this, though really Fu goes wherever he wants.
  • Uncatty Resemblance: The placement of his wraps do make him look a lot like Abu, but that's about all he has that resembles the guy.

Neighbors

    Momo 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_momo.png

Voiced by: Hei Te (Chinese), Miyuki Sawashiro (Japanese)
A Japanese cat demon who lives nearby.
  • The Alcoholic: After introducing herself to Neil once she sobers up, she offers him a welcoming bottle of sake... but then refuses to give it over and decides to chug the whole thing herself. The 1031 residents try to help her get sober, with varying successes and mostly failures.
  • The Bus Came Back: Her out-of-universe absence for a length of strips was explained by her attempting to join a war correspondence organization. It fell through when she realized that abstinence is mandatory for working there.
  • Cat Girl: While she is this, the Youkai she's based off is likely a Nekomata, due to the forked tail.
  • The Dreaded: She becomes this to the entire 1031 household when she's drunk. It's enough that she can even terrify Lin and Nick mid fight. When she was sober and came to greet the others, everyone immediately ran to their rooms for safety.
  • Establishing Character Moment: She stumbles onto Neil drunk as a cat and transforms back to her human form when she gets annoyed. She is either showing up drunk or is getting drunk.
  • Hidden Depths: She used to be an idol when she was younger, but thanks to her alcoholism, she quit.
  • Idol Singer: She used to be in a fairly popular idol group back when she lived in Japan. She didn't hate it and was doing well for herself, but her constant drinking pretty much killed her fanbase.
  • What Did I Do Last Night?: Momo has a habit of turning up after a hangover with no idea what happened the previous night. Sometimes it gets to the point where she's a danger to everybody in the room.
  • Tomboy and Girly Girl: With Lily. While Lily wears cheerful pastel colors and is a bubbly, feminine girl, Momo becomes a brash, crass drunk (which is often associated with masculine behavior) and is the more physically fit of the two.

    Lily Angel 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_lily.png

Voiced by: Yanyan Xi (Chinese), Marika Kouno (Japanese)
Lynn's younger sister who Neil soon develops a huge crush on.
  • The Ace: She excels in anything she does, and she was considered the best student at her school.
  • Action Girl: Season 2 of the donghua shows her wielding a sword when all of the other monster divisions come to take away Nini.
  • Adaptational Slimness: Donghua Lily lacks the chest of her comic counterpart.
  • Big Brother Worship: Contrast to Neil's relationship to his own big brother, Lily absolutely adores her gege and can't bear to be without him. She moved to his current address precisely because she wanted to be near him. As the years go on, her obsession gets toned down—while she still loves Lynn with all her heart, she develops into a person who can understand his boundaries and outright defies him.
  • Dude Magnet: Downplayed. When she first comes to 1031, all of the guys quickly warm up to her and they all become friends. Neil is so charmed by her he falls in love with her.
  • Emo Teen: She goes through an emo phase when her halo corrupts, turning her into her total opposite. For a time, she stops being interested in the arts, dyes her hair black, starts wearing darker makeup, shops from Hot Topic-like stores, and hates Lynn's overprotectiveness. Conversely, she starts openly flirting with demons and gets into the idea of visiting Hell.
  • Family Theme Naming: She and Lynn both have names that start with the sound "Li".
  • Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling: The foolish to her brother Lynn's responsible.
  • Genki Girl: She's excited to meet her brother's roommates and genuinely compliments them. She also has a lot of energy in general which contrasts greatly to her brother's calculated and calm demeanor.
  • Girlish Pigtails: She wears her hair in low-braided pigtails behind her head.
  • Green-Eyed Epiphany: Her feelings for Neil seemingly didn't go beyond thinking him a good friend, but Lily finally starts acting on unspoken feelings when his childhood friend Sasha comes over and hits it off with him. She didn't fully realize it yet, but she was indeed jealous of Sasha and only began to acknowledge her feelings when the latter girl confirmed she wasn't aiming for Neil at all.
  • Hates Being Alone: Her first introduction shows her writing a letter to Lynn telling him she was feeling lonely in Heaven and how it didn't feel like home. She then comes to the conclusion that home is wherever he is and barges in on his apartment.
  • Holy Halo: As an angel she has one, but hasn't used it in the way Lynn does.
  • Lonely at the Top: She excels in all of her schoolwork and seems to be the perfect image of an angelic being. But when she writes to her brother that she feels lonely in Heaven as it doesn't feel like home, she also tells Neil she was also lonely at school because there wasn't anyone there who understood her.
  • Loved by All: When she meets the others for the first time, they're immediately smitten by her personality and gladly go along with whatever she wants.
  • Oblivious to Love: She doesn't seem to realize that Neil has gained a crush on her and continues to treat him as a close friend.
  • Perpetual Smiler: She rarely drops her smile.
  • Sibling Yin-Yang: Where Lynn is quiet and stoic, Lily seems outgoing and upbeat.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: She has a lot of Lynn's features.
  • Toothy Issue: She has buck teeth, which also emphasize her innocence and childishness.
  • Winged Humanoid: Given she's an angel, she has a pair of these.

    Guanyin 
A Bodhisattva that also serves as the apartment complex's owner. He helped Lynn get accustomed to China.
  • Animal Lover: Like Neil, Guanyin is crazy about animals. Residents can often bribe him with an interesting animal or even one of the roommates who can shapeshift.
  • Drop-In Landlord: Unlike Lynn, who is a recurring character, Guanyin only shows up on occasion and only when it involves either rent or animals to bribe him with.
  • Gender Flip: Guanyin is traditionally presented as a woman, but this one is a very male landlord.
  • Transplant: He's actually a side character from Fei Ren Zai, repurposed for this series.

Friends and Family

    Nick Holt 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_nick.png

Voiced by: Zhang Zhen (Chinese), Yuichi Nakamura (Japanese)
Neil's older half-brother, and self proclaimed top salesman of Hell.
  • Advertised Extra: Averted as far as the webtoon goes, as he's a consistently recurring character. for the donghua, however, he was shown in some advertisements for the first season, but his presence story-wise was nonexistent until the last episode. He finally made his debut in the first episode of Season 2.
  • Attractive Bent-Gender: His female transformation, Nico, is a rather shapely girl, and Axel at the very least was smitten with her. Nick makes mention of using that form to seduce other schmucks too, with implied success.
  • Big Brother Bully: While he does love Neil in his own way, he likes to pick on him a lot, which put a rift between them. For example, when Neil was bullied in PE, Nick took the opportunity to come with him just to get in some licks. Nick sees nothing wrong with this treatment and often wonders why they don't hang out more. Played with later on; he mainly acts this way because he feels it's his way of helping Neil get stronger since the boy was often bullied when they were younger, and Nick's worried his little brother won't be able to control the Demon King. Unfortunately, when he tries to bond with Neil nowadays, Neil just immediately distances himself from his brother.
  • Break Them by Talking: He really breaks into Ira when the other inadvertently summons him by pointing out how he's living off of his parents' money, has never worked a day in his life and calls himself a popular streamer despite having below ten thousand followers.
  • Dark Is Evil: He has a darker color palette compared to his brother, and he's usually up to no good.
  • Early-Bird Cameo: He can be seen in some scenes of the donghua opening, but has yet to make an official appearance. He finally appears in the first episode of season 2.
  • Friend to All Children: For all of his anxiety about commitment, he's a blast with children. He once helps Lynn run a summer camp and by the end of the experience all the kids were too attached to him to think about leaving.
  • Half-Sibling Angst: In the donghua with demon lord Neil trapping Nick in his greatest negative emotion: feeling that Neil is part of the reason his father left. After his mother remarried and had Neil, people made fun of Nick for being fatherless and he felt that Neil took the powers of the demon king that should have went to him. This is quickly subverted when Nick fights back against these thoughts because he genuinely loves Neil and was always focused on being a good brother, which led to him to put Neil through Training from Hell as they grew up so that he might be able to fight back against bullies.
  • Hypocritical Heartwarming: He bullied and antagonized Neil throughout their childhood, but in episode twenty four, we learn that was only because he knew that Neil was so much of a Nice Guy that he wouldn't fight back against school bullies, so he always tried to give him Training from Hell to toughen him up. He's actually deeply cared about Neil all this time, doing kind things while Neil wasn't there to see, like beating people up who talked badly about him and calling their mom to check on him.
  • Like Father, Like Son: Besides looks, one of the major things Nick's picked up from James is his inability to commit to a romantic relationship. He dips at the first sign his partner wants to consider a next step. He does however last a year dating Axel, but that's half because he couldn't find a good reason to break it off with him and half because Tom threatened him into staying.
  • Made of Good: A magical sauna that releases the good from people who stay in it long enough ends up separating Nick's goodwill from himself. Good Nick has none of the vices the regular Nick has, and his kindness can rival (and better) Neil's. However, he's not completely good—he's all too happy to get rid of what remains of Evil Nick and take Neil's place in 1031.
  • Not What It Looks Like: After awakening the Demon Lord, he calmly tells Nick off after disarming him and then sets up the situation to look like Nick was strangling Neil which leads to Lynn calling the police.
  • Really Gets Around: By his own admission, he's had over 60 partners over the course of his life. Man, woman, or in between, he's wooed them all.
  • Red and Black and Evil All Over: Yet another thing he flips from his brother. His more red/black color scheme appropriately fits his trickier, bullying nature.
  • Shapeshifting: Nick is incredibly skilled at shapeshifting, and is one of a handful of demons to do so (it's an elective in Hell). He can even Gender Bend himself, much to Lynn's surprise.
  • Ship Tease: With Lynn. He flirts with him for a good number of strips, follows him on a date even though he says it's not his business, and half the apartment thinks he fixates on the angel too much. Even he's surprised to know that Lynn doesn't hate him completely.
  • Sibling Yin-Yang: Where Neil was the agreeable and naive little brother, Nick is manipulative, mean, and much more selfish. He also has the opposite color palette to his brother.
  • Spotlight-Stealing Squad: The number of times when Nick isn't involved with something can be counted on two hands by the time year 3 rolls around.
  • The Thing That Would Not Leave: Nick actually lives in a hotel somewhere in Beijing. He just hangs around 1031 so often that you forget that fact.
  • Tough Love: Along with being the older brother who seems to enjoy bullying Neil, he does this because he fears Neil is too weak and wants to make him stronger so he can control the demon king sleeping inside of him.
  • "Well Done, Son" Guy: He doesn't get to see James that often, but when he does he tries everything in his power to earn approval from the man.
  • When You Coming Home, Dad?: Before Neil came into his life, Nick was convinced that he was the reason why James left the family, lamenting that he thinks he's not "good enough".

    James Holt 
Nick's biological father, and a free spirited policeman in Hell.
  • The Alcoholic: Never misses a chance to get blackout drunk, but unlike Momo it's not always played for laughs. His drinking ended up costing him his relationship with Rose, among other issues.
  • Awesome Aussie: He is a poor father and lover, but when we're first properly introduced to him he's off dealing with the craziness of Austrailian Hell with little more than a bat and an attitude. Even Mr. Bowman is infatuated with his devil-may-care lifestyle.
  • Batter Up!: In a seeming lack of more conventional police weapons, James carries a bat with him.
  • Parental Abandonment: He left Nick and his mother when the former was a child, and has zero remorse over it, not helped by Nick desperately wanting his approval even in adulthood. He's stated that he wasn't ready for fatherhood to begin with.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: Take Nick, but make him older and give him scruff, and that's James in a nutshell.

    The Bowmans 
Neil's mother and father.
  • No Name Given: Neil's mother, Rose, is rarely referred to by name but she at least has one. Poor Mr. Bowman is never called by his given name in all of his appearances.
  • Lies to Children: While she had always meant well by it, the reason why Nick has so much blind admiration for James is because Rose kept lying about why the latter man left the family. She portrayed James as an always busy hero who was fighting monsters on a globe-spanning journey.

    The Bloods 
Ira's ultra rich vampire family.
  • Characterization Marches On: Ira's mother was first seen as an overdramatic woman, making exaggerated poses as she talked about how humans and vampires don't mix. When she makes her proper debut in-story, she's a lot colder and proper.
  • Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: All of Ira's immediate family, plus his grandmother, have shown up at some point. However, his father only showed up once in the early strips, and never gets seen with his family again.
  • Elegant Gothic Lolita: As expected of vampires, Dottie wears beautiful black and red dresses everywhere she goes. Personality-wise, she's just a brat.
  • Upper-Class Twit: While they dress up elegantly and live a lavish lifestyle, they're way less well-behaved in the human world. Ira's younger siblings destroy everything he owns on their visit, while his mother thinks she can get away with biting a human on live television or brainwashing the prison guards who watch over her in jail.

    The Kirilenko Family 

Anna

  • Girlish Pigtails: In her first appearance, she was depicted with two short pigtails. Her subsequent appearances after 2019 show her to have let her hair down in the meantime.
  • Hidden Depths: Despite her wild and romantic fantasies, Anna's actual writing content is leagues above her age. It's also, surprisingly, dark and depressing, and she can write for a variety of different demographics and genres. Russian literature is no joke.
  • Precocious Crush: She's seven years old upon her second visit to Beijing, but most of her feature strips have her fawning over the apartment's most handsome boys and even a few good-looking walk-ons. She dreams of marrying guys like Ira or Abu.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: She's the Kirilenko who looks most like Vlad, sharing his two tones of hair, fur color, and eyes and fangs.
  • Token Mini-Moe: Unlike Ira's younger siblings, Anna does eventually stay with Vlad for a length of time, so she briefly becomes this for the 1031 crew.

    Evan Angel 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_evan.png

Voiced by: Yang Xinran (Chinese), Kensho Ono (Japanese)
One of Lily's old university friends, and an angel like her. He occasionally visits her from Heaven.
  • Hidden Depths: One series of comics follows Evan through his day. From there we learn that he's fascinated with summoned demonic creatures and keeps them as pets in his house, and that he's struggling to understand more about demonkind under the other angels' noses. This is also part of the reason why he's interested in befriending Neil.
  • Incompatible Orientation: His crush on Neil will never bear fruit, as the latter man has always fallen in love with girls.
  • Nice Guy: While Neil is initially jealous of his closeness to Lily, Evan is nothing but kind to Neil, even worrying over him when he trips over himself when trying to chase after Lily. He also tells Neil he would have taken Lily back to heaven if she wasn't happy living at 1031, but is glad she has a friend like Neil.
  • Oblivious to Hatred: He is happily oblivious that Neil is trying to get him to make a fool of himself in front of Lily when he sees how close the two angels were. Subverted when Neil soon warms up to Evan and the two become friends.
  • Straight Gay: At the end of his initial visit, he's revealed to have a thing for Neil, giving him his phone number. In the donghua, the card with his phone number has a picture of him with a cupid bow and he even winks at Neil after he opens his "gift". Neil somehow forgets this whenever Evan comes back.

    Crystal 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_crystal.png

An old friend of Nick's who works as an exorcist. Sweden-born Unicorn woman.


  • Bunny-Ears Lawyer: She doesn't do anything by the book as far as exorcism goes, but her methods are sound enough to successfully get rid of a rampaging ghost that possessed Vladimir. Said method, mind you, is punching him in the gut.
  • Cool Big Sis: She has an easygoing air about her, and her reliability and affability make her a hit with both men and women. Neil has known her long enough to consider her a sister figure.
  • Long Hair Is Feminine: Discussed, but subverted. Because other kids didn't want to play with her for being a tomboy, Crystal felt that she had to present more conventionally feminine to fit in and thought about growing her hair out to start. She does eventually wear long hair in adulthood, but this was because she was inspired by a male unicorn that saved her and Nick when they were lost in a forest. Aside from the hair she's a dyed-in-the-wool Ladette.
  • Herbivores Are Friendly: Due to being a unicorn, her diet consists of hay and wild plants. She's also one of the nicest people in the series, rather trustworthy, and can be relied on in a pinch.
  • Rainbows and Unicorns: Her species as a whole embraces using rainbows, and Crystal is no exception. She can ride on rainbows, use rainbows to transfer her body fat to others, and even use rainbows as a heater. Chapter 130's header also shows her holding up a rainbow Pride flag, which reveals her as a lesbian.

    Sasha 
Neil's childhood friend. Currently works for the same company Nick does.
  • First Love: They pretty much remained platonic friends until they were separated, but Neil had a crush on her when they were young and he sees her as his first love.
  • Mistaken for Romance: Pretty much all of Neil's acquaintances thought that he and Sasha were going to hook up upon reuniting. Lily was especially worried. However, she doesn't have feelings for him that way and is entirely interested in angel men.
  • Race Fetish: Angels. Upon meeting Neil again, she asked if he was in contact with any angel men, as she wants a handsome angel boyfriend. She further specifies that she likes 'em blond and innocent.
  • Used to Be a Tomboy: She was a much more bold and brash girl when she was younger. Her choice of pursuing crushes was decidedly aggressive (i.e. she'd beat them up to convince them to date her), but it didn't earn her many friends.

Others

    Valentine and Cupid 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_valentine_cupid.png
Valentine (Left), Cupid (Right)
The saint in the flesh, having come to live a peaceful life on Earth with Cupid as his son. He vacations in Beijing after becoming obsessed with Chinese dramas.
  • Cupid's Arrow: Cupid, of course, can fire these. While they are guaranteed to make people fall in love 100 percent of the time, it doesn't mean that the afflicted will be able to recognize those feelings if they're in an environment that keeps their thoughts completely occupied.
  • Love Freak: Valentine's more Cupid-like than the real saint ever was. A lot of time is spent on him trying to get people together and having Cupid use his arrows on anyone they feel looks like a good couple.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning: When Cupid malfunctions, his eyes turn a deep red and he starts throwing arrows indiscriminately. He also loses control of his heat vision (which he has, for some reason).
  • Sailor Senshi Send-Up: The Valentine's Day special of Chapter 158 has Valentine transform into a Sailor Soldier-esque costume to stop Axel from killing people on his patron holiday.
  • Shipper on Deck: Given their whole thing is based on love and romance, they are this for many characters and couples who they personally root for.
  • Yaoi Fanboy: While he loves couples of all stripes, in two particular instances Valentine tries to speed up what he thinks is the love story between two male characters, and tries to get Ira and Vlad to fall in love with each other.

    Axel Bäcker 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_axel.png

A stoic reaper with an AI as a companion. He eventually starts dating Nick in his disguise as "Nico".


  • Brutal Honesty: A reaper-in-training, Sam, was given to Axel for evaluation. While Axel likes Sam as a person and understands the pressures he's going through, he cannot set aside the fact that Sam is an abysmal reaper and gives him a failing grade. On the bright side, he does encourage Sam to pursue his true interest of writing.
  • Loves My Alter Ego: He doesn't know Nick at all, but he's absolutely smitten with "Nico" and fumbles all over himself trying to impress her. When he does see a connection between her and Nick, it's only because he thinks the latter is "her" brother.
  • The Stoic: While he's capable of a small smile, he rarely ever emotes. Ironically, his AI Tom is much more energetic and expressive.

    Wenwen Hao 
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/all_saints_street_wenwen.png

A Chinese mosquito monster girl who makes friends with Ira.


  • Punny Name: Her given name is a pun on the Chinese word for mosquito, wen.
  • Heavy Sleeper: Because she's a mosquito, she doesn't do too well in cold temperatures, so she ends up sleeping more than half the day away.
    Yuzu 
A mike themed cat demon who used to be in an idol group with Momo.
  • Theme Naming: It appears that the girls of Momo's idol group were themed after fruit. Where Momo is a peach, Yuzu is a Japanese citrus fruit.

    Lulu 
A foreign witch who moved to China to sell natural remedies.
    Will 
A high school classmate of Sasha. Is in love with her even after all these years, but she doesn't know yet.
