Original series and Cross-universe

    Main Heroes 

Aozora

The series' main protagonist, who has a very wild personality and the ability to transform into a variety of forms thanks to one of several Transformation Trinkets.

  • Big Eater: Aozora has a very wide preference for food and will eat anything that's both edible and well-prepared/cooked. Justified, as he does lots of globe-trotting during his adventures, especially in Aozora's Adventure III.
  • Good Is Not Soft: He's caring to his friends and the people that trust and look up to him, but if you challenge or threaten him, he'll go full out with his fighting techniques.
  • Hot-Blooded: As a Shonen protagonist stereotype, Aozora is built on this trope and is loaded with energy.
  • Shout-Out: He is inspired by a great variety of Shonen protagonists, and overall pays homage both Super Mario Bros. and Kirby with his massive array of different forms. In the case of the Rock-Aozora plots, he's instead a Mega Man (Classic) homage.
  • Unlimited Wardrobe: Aozora has several alternate outfits at his disposal, geared for different activities and adventures. Others are direct upgrades of his traditional outfit.

Satoru

One of Aozora's closest friends that form the titular three with him and Zik.
  • Lovable Coward: Satoru is frightened easily and takes caution, though he's still loved by the rest of the main cast and is a valuable asset for Aozora.
  • Never Bareheaded: Satoru is never seen without his trademark hat, except when he's home alone and washing it, or sleeping.
  • Shout-Out: His personality and Lovable Coward traits are styled after Luigi's.

Zik

Another of Aozora's closest friends and the third member of the main three.
  • Anime Hair: He has blonde hair that shoots upwards, and helps support his visor.

Keisha

Aozora's very athletic and charming girlfriend.
  • Action Girl: Once she hit adulthood, she began entering sports and competitions (sometimes alongside men), including fighting tournaments.
  • Official Couple: She and Aozora have a very close relationship, even in the moments where it seems to almost fall apart.
  • Sailor Fuku: Her outfit- while not matching the design entirely, invokes the general style of a Fuku.

Sakaki

A friend of Keisha's, recognized for her long purple hair and dark color palette.
  • Goth: Her outfit is mainly indigo and purple, and she has a skull patch on her left breast.
  • The Stoic: Skye is quiet and doesn't emote much.

Skye

A very intelligent boy from school that Aozora met when he was younger, and a close friend of Sakaki's.
  • Let's Fight Like Gentlemen: Despite his flashy appearance, Skye is easily capable of taking on even crowds of people.
  • Sharp-Dressed Man: His design is easily the sharpest of Aozora's friends. It only got sharper when Arc 3 introduced a new outfit for him.

Toshi

A geek well recognized for his large rounded Eye Glasses and for being very skilled in robotics. He is responsible for the creation of the robots that Aozora lives with.

  • Wolverine Claws: On her right hand, there are two yellow-colored blades that she uses for combat.

    Aozora's Adventure RPG Characters 

Gil

  • The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: Unlike the later-introduced Chinatsu and Lachlan, Gil does not perform any of the actions typical of a pirate due to lacking experience, unless it's easy treasure from an island he can snag effortlessly.

Jiroukichi

    Rock-Aozora Characters 

Genroy

  • Ax-Crazy: Genroy is one insane guy with his mind always up in the clouds. Even then he's still a smart guy.
  • Grappling-Hook Pistol: His signature tool, the Ooze Grappler, shoots an elastic arm of slime that can grab just about any wall or surface.

Kento

  • Acrofatic: He's bigger than most of the other characters, though he's just as quick and agile as them.

    Aozora's Adventure II/Rock-Aozora 2 Bosses 

Masayoshi

  • Barrier Warrior: Can surround himself in a column of embers.
  • Captain Ersatz: Of Matthew Patel from Scott Pilgrim, with very slight shades of Matahachi from the film Goemon.
  • Cool Sword: In Aozora's Adventure II, he uses a jet black sword.
  • Determinator: Ever since he first met and got defeated at the hands of Aozora, it's become his life goal to beat Aozora whenever the chance arrives.
  • Dynamic Entry: If he can, Masayoshi will crash through anything if he's looking for a fight.
  • Guy Liner: Masayoshi's eyes are decorated with some thick eye-liner.
  • Playing with Fire: The least-advanced pyrokinesis user in the series, since he can only produce it from his hands and fling small off-colored embers. His most advanced technique, described above, causes fire to engulf him on every side, though it requires a bit of buildup.
  • Power Floats: Masayosi can levitate, but he can't reach the same top speed that Kazuhiko can achieve.
  • Retcon: To further his similarities to Matahachi, his right eye (the one not obstructed by his bangs) was made to consist of nothing but a black iris. Come recent years, and both eyes would eventually become iris-only.
  • Reverse Shrapnel: One of Masayoshi's well-known techniques, see Barrier Warrior above.
  • The Rival: Currently stands as Aozora's biggest rival yet.
  • Took a Level in Badass: If one follows Rock-Aozora 2 instead of Aozora's Adventure II, Masayoshi is said to be slightly more powerful, becoming faster and using his limited pyrokinesis more strategically.

Chinatsu

  • A Father to His Men: Female example. Chinatsu cares very deeply for her crew of otherwise normal pirate girls and always keeps them well-equipped and suited for battle.
  • Pirate: She has a pirate's hat, a big ship, and a crew of lesser pirate girls on board.
  • Pirate Girl: A female pirate that become one just to show that women can be as successful as men.
  • Throw a Barrel at It: Because of her strength, Chinatsu can do this no problem- though in most cases she'll rely on direct melee or her own gun to do the trick.

Girou

  • The Rival: The lesser of Aozora's recurring rivals, though after Arc 2 comes to a close, the rivarly is dropped off the radar.
  • Sarashi: In fitting with the series he primarily takes after, Girou's lower chest is covered in thin white cloth.
  • This Is a Drill: Wields a handheld motor-powered drill and drives a Mini-Mecha that can drill through dirt.

Kazuhiko

  • '80s Hair: An impressive, blonde pompadour.
  • Battle Aura: Glows a nice white in battle mode while using certain attacks. It glows brighter when Kazuhiro uses stronger attacks.
  • Cool Car: Drives a solid black hot rod.
  • Chick Magnet: He's very popular with the females that inhabit the city.
  • Glowing Eyes of Doom: When he's in battle mode, his eyes become pure white and produce smoke. When he's weakened, the smoke becomes much more dense.
  • Light Is Not Good: His Psychic Powers are colored white and give off light.
  • Psychic Powers: Can fire blasts of white psychic energy from just about any part of his body.
  • Power Floats: Kazuhiko has the ability to levitate, and can even use his psychic energy as thrusters to fly faster.
  • Shout-Out:
    • He's the Aozora's Adventure version of Todd Ingram with some JP added in.
    • A few of Kazuhiro's moves and techniques are direct spoofs of The Matrix.

Sharkane

  • Animal Motifs: A shark. He has a shark tooth-shaped scar on his face, his collar and gloves' triangular patterns are meant to represent a shark's tooth, and two of the pins on his head-belt feature designs of a fish's silhouette and shark's mouth.
  • Bayonet Ya: Sharkane's flamethrower includes a bayonet under the igniter.
  • BFG: The flamethrower he holds is six feet wide.
  • Big Eater: Sharkane is capable of eating up large servings of food without much trouble, burning them off as he works and fights.
  • Cute Little Fangs: Sharkane's canine teeth are noticeably sharp.
  • Expy: Of Sol-Badguy's pre-Xrd appearance from Guilty Gear. His signature weapon and Animal Motif is based on the Insurrectionist Flame Soldier.
  • Fire-Breathing Weapon: His flamethrower: the Scorch Shark.
  • Papa Wolf: Threaten or harm Grip and Gnear, and he'll remind you why you don't mess with a shark.
  • Real Men Cook: Sharkane is, surprisingly, a talent of cooking foods for himself, Grip, and Gnear.
  • Real Men Eat Meat: Most of Sharkane's favorite dishes are meat-based. That said...
  • Trademark Favorite Food: Fitting with his shark motif, Sharkane adores the taste of fresh seafood.

Grip and Gnear

  • Fire-Breathing Weapon: Both the twins wield flamethrowers of varying strengths.
  • Mix-and-Match Weapon: Much like Sharkane, their flamethrowers have knives strapped under their igniters, with Gnear's having three instead of one.
  • Shout-Out: Usually compared to the Katayanagi Twins from Scott Pilgrim, with one of their personal mechs in Aozora's Adventure II being inspired by the Tetran.
  • Theme Twin Naming: Their name is based on the phrase "Rip and Tear" with G's inserted into their names.

Mignonette

Fayato

  • Cool Boat: His massive cruise ship. Fayato can even take it underwater with his magic.
  • Making a Splash: Fayato has access to water magic, in fitting with his sailor and marine biologist roles.

    Aozora's Adventure Gaiden Bosses 

Erebos

  • A God Am I: He considers himself this, despite being behind Kelthilda in terms of power.
  • Badass Armfold: When levitating in place or steadily dropping/rising, this is his preferred pose, sometimes with his legs crossed.
  • Dragon-in-Chief: While he's not the true leader of the Gaiden bosses, he's the primary force that challenges Aozora and becomes part of what kicks off the story.
  • Expy: Of Idaten fron Cho Aniki, Sinbad from Magi: Labyrinth of Magic, and Terra from Mega Man V.
  • Walking Shirtless Scene: Being brought into a religion where beauty is considered top priority, Erebos's upper body is left undressed

Talisha

Nirave

Rodrigo

  • Balloon Belly: If he lets too much fire build up in his lungs or stomach, either by overcharging or inhaling large amounts of fire.
  • Breath Weapon: He can shoot fire right out of his mouth.
  • Cold-Blooded Torture: As a child, he was forced to become a fire breather for the amusement of his tribe. Then he swallows a special voodoo fire and let's just say things got hot.
  • Elemental Shapeshifter: Can morph any part of his body into lava.
  • Extreme Omnivore: He can suck in flames from any source and ingest it to increase the power of his own attacks. A tactic that no other pyrokinesis user in the series can perform.
  • Magma Man: Rodrigo can morph, enclose, and melt his body into lava.
  • Playing with Fire: Over-exaggerated to front and back, Rodrigo is easily the most technical of all the pyrokinesis users in the series, even to the point where he can create solid rocks of magma from within his body before spitting them out.
  • Weaksauce Weakness: As easily-predicted, water can nullify most of his attacks, though he does have workarounds and completely dousing him in water will just cause him to emit lots of smoke.

Ptolema

  • Expy: Of Elysium from Soul Calibur V and Angewomon from Digimon. She also takes very light inspiration from Palutena.
  • Light Is Not Good: A physical angel, yet she sides with the villains during the events of Gaiden, mostly since Aozora is invading her grounds and killing several of her soldiers.

Bojun

  • Expy: Ultimately of Uranus from Mega Man V. He also takes features after Potemkin's Xrd design and Zavok.
  • Super-Strength: Bojun demonstrates this in just every way possible, being able to lift and throw objects even larger than himself.

Gratien

  • Ax-Crazy: Forget Genroy, this guy is completely nuts, always swinging his arm of blades wile making the most silly of poses and displaying a Slasher Smile.
  • Artificial Limbs: His right arm, which can extend out with three large saw blades.
  • Chainsaw Good: He has three circular saw blades in his right arm which can extend apart and be whipped almost any distance.
  • Made of Iron: Very much anything on his body, to avoid a Hoist by His Own Petard if he gets hit by his own weapon.

Kelthilda

    Aozora's Adventure 3 D World Antagonists 

Robo-Aozora

Orpheus

  • Eldritch Abomination: Orpheus is a living humanoid shadow that travels the galaxy and could potentially become anything he wants.
  • Expy: Largely based on the Anti-Spiral from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann along with Master Core form Super Smash Bros..
  • Humanoid Abomination: His main form is a black silhouette with several patterns running through his body. The only facial feature that shows is his mouth and more rarely, his eyes.
  • Ret-Gone: Removed from the series in 2017 as he was described as generic by Word of God.
  • Sealed Evil in a Can: In Aozora's Adventure 3D World, he comes down to Earth in Robo-Aozora's body, where he then challenges Aozora to reach his personal fortress. Once Robo-Aozora is destroyed, Orpheus emerges from Robo-Aozora's body and ascends into space, where Aozora continues to go after him. This was since retconned out of the series, making Robo-Aozora the sole antagonist of 3D World
  • Shapeshifting: Being made of shadow, he can become any form he desires, and enlarge or shrink himself to fit his transformation.

    Roast Gang and Roast Elites 

Jigoku

  • Disc-One Final Boss: He would be the final main boss of the first half of Aozora III.
  • Shout-Out: Very loosely based on Red Mist (of which most of his appearance/color scheme is based on).
  • We Can Rebuild Him: After he is downed at the hands of his former best friend, he is taken in by the Frost Elites and rebuilt into An Ice Person. After that, he is remade again in Rock-Aozora 3, where he becomes powerless, for the most part.
  • We Used to Be Friends: During the Time Skip between the second and third arcs, he and Aozora became close buddies. However when the other Roast Elites attacked the college in Aozora's Adventure III to pick up Jigoku (though making it look like a kidnapping to not raise any flags), he was later forced to reveal himself when Aozora discovers the Roast Elite's base.

Jullian

  • Light Is Not Good: He's a physical angel with a primarily bright color scheme and bright white angel wings... When first encountered in Aozora III, he's considered an enemy at first.

Randolph

Wernher

  • Mighty Glacier: The Roast Gang's main powerhouse, but the slowest in his suit.

Florencia

  • Action Girl: The only female Roast Elite, and she is easily capable of showing why she's deserving of the title.
  • Dance Battler: Thanks to being a longtime dancer, she's learned how to do effective combat with her moves.

  • Grappling-Hook Pistol: The Jolt Taser's territory function. Despite the wires being very thin, they have quite a large amount of strength.

  • Psycho Electro: Hiromori is sadistic, insane, and comes with electricity powers thanks to his Jolt Taser.
  • Scary Teeth: All of his teeth are very sharp.
  • Shock and Awe: Is usually associated with electricity, even though only one attack of his (his Static Stun Gun) truly incorporates it.

  • Dash Attack: The Shadow Pursuit lets Michitaro charge while using the magatama's energy to shield himself and damage targets. It even causes a Speed Echo.
  • Super-Speed: He can travel at very fast speeds with the magatama's powers in hand.

Ottomar

  • Homing Lasers: Is capable of firing a constant green beam that will carve around solid surfaces to strike a target.
  • Self-Destruct Mechanism: Can self-destruct by reaching into his mouth and pressing a well-hidden switch, triggering a timer that will cause his whole body to explode after four seconds. Thankfully, Ottomar only uses this in extremely rare moments, and his armor is strong enough to remain intact, at worst leave him with a bit of ash.

  • Barrier Warrior: His gloves contain energy which can deploy a "Pixel Barrier"- making Raster completely invincible while it's out. In Rock-Aozora 3, it can even block One-Hit Kill hazards.
  • Light Gun Game: Weaponizes a battery-operated arcade lightgun which fires plasma bullets.
  • Reverse Shrapnel: The Pixel Barrier takes the form of four large pixels that rotate around Raster, with two progressively smaller pixels trailing behind each pixel.

  • One-Winged Angel: Once he's got enough power under his belt, he undergoes "Beast Mode", his "Release" form.

Mara

Vinzenz

  • Absurdly Sharp Claws: As a result of his bionic shapeshifting hands, which have really sharp tips.
