A boy with the power of levitation amplified by intense emotions. Once shunned as a child due to his powers, he has since started wearing boots inlaid with pockets with which he can place weights so as to keep him aground every time. A chance encounter with Mikono, however, ultimately forces him to start embracing his powers.
All the Other Reindeer: Suffered a moderate one as a child when his levitation powers went off in the middle of a group of kids, hence the reason he wears pocketed boots with which he can place weights.
Butt Monkey: Got threatened by Cayenne with a beatdown twice, getting his ass sniped by Donar for floating around too much, and getting teased a lot by Zessica? The poor boy's got a tough life ahead. And that's not to mention frequent misunderstandings with Mikono.
Chick Magnet/Mr. Fanservice: Many a female classmate squeed at the sight of him baring his chest by tearing off his Vector suit in Episode 8 to increase his sensitivity to Jin's missiles and thus learn how to evade them more efficiently.
Cowardly Lion: He's rather timid and shy compared to the other male characters, but when push comes to shove, he can be just as Hot Blooded as them.
Dogged Nice Guy: Towards Mikono. Although this is mostly subverted because of the UST that they share. He somehow slips into this in Episode 15 when he continues to get pumbled by Kagura throughout the episode. This is turned Up to Eleven at the end of the episode where he turns into Kagura's personal punching bag just so that Mikono has more time to get away.
Screw Destiny: Does not believe that Kagura and Mikono are destined for each other because they are the reincarnations of Apollon and Sylvie, and that Mikono won't choose him because of this fact. This is because Amata and Kagura are split reincarnations of Apollon.
A girl hailing from a well-respected family of Element Users who ironically is apparently born without any powers, causing her to become a withdrawn, shy girl who has to rely on her older brother Cayenne. After being saved by Amata, she ends up joining him at Neo DEAVA, whose higher-ups speculate that she may have the power to amplify the Aquarion. She also has a pet rabbit named Shu-Shu, who can hide in her hair like an accessory. Ultimately she is revealed to have the power to fortify the bonds between the Aquarion's pilots, indirectly increasing its power in the process.
Abusive Parents: Her father anyway, after he finds out that she's been enrolled in Neo DEAVA ( 18 epsiodes later, mind you), his response is basically, " What they heck is she doing with Cayenne? She's useless after all.."
Betty and Veronica: The Betty to Zessica's Veronica for Amata, and the Archie to Amata's Betty and Kagura's Veronica.
Big Brother Worship: Had this relationship with Cayenne when they were younger, but these feelings have grown distant when he went off to join Neo DEAVA, seemingly leaviing her behind.
Clingy Jealous Girl: Not exactly clingy per se, but she usually gives Amata the cold shoulder whenever another girl makes him float.
Cowardly Lion/Dirty Coward: Showed shades of this in the first episode where she tries to persuade Amata into running away even though they were in the midst of a battle with lives on the line. Luckily this side of her disappears when she joins Neo DEAVA because she starts to gain more confidence in herself.
Green-Eyed Monster: She's jealous of Zessica for being able to make Amata float. But she'll probably get over it since he floats for just about everyone, including Yunoha, who's apparently but a little girl.
The Heart: Serves mostly as the emotional bond that keeps the Element Users, highly disparate personalities and all, together. In Episode 9, she finally convinces MIX to perform a cross-gender Union with Andy (and later Amata).
Heart Is an Awesome Power: Turns out her own power is to amplify emotional connections between the Elements. As the Aquarion draws its energy from bonds, she can indirectly increase its power, making her a valuable asset to Neo DEAVA.
I Just Want to Be Special: Initially, she comes off as rather antisocial and withdrawn out of envy of other girls, all of which are Element User. Even bringing up Cayenne became a bit of a Berserk Button for her. This changes after reuniting with Amata where she becomes more cheerful and even becomes friends with some of her classmates. When she finally discovers her powers she fully breaks out of her shell.
In-Series Nickname: Kagura calls her his "wench" or his "smelly wench." From Episode 11 onward, this changes to "Sylvie."
Naïve Newcomer: Unlike Amata who instantly knows what to do when piloting Aquarion, it takes her a few tries before she's actually comfortable with it.
Nice Girl: Subverted, amusingly enough, by Mari Okada, who calls her a "bad girl."
The Ojou: She hails from the well-respected Suzushiro family. Which is a bit of an Informed Attribute since she doesn't act like one nor does anyone ever treat her like one. Which is weird since she hails from a family of famous element-users yet none of her element-user classmates acknowledge that fact. The only thing she's been acknowledged for is being the younger sister of Cayenne.
Stranger in a Strange School: Always feels out-of-place in Neo DEAVA, whereas Amata can at least fit in with his equally psychic classmates.
Super Empowering: Neo DEAVA's higher-ups speculate that her true power may be enhancing the Aquarion's combat abilities. Episode 9 reveals that she does so in an indirect way through amplifying her teammates' emotional bonds.
Sympathy for the Devil: For Kagura. She compares him to a stray dog and believes that he's just really lonely. These feelings are replaced with fear as he continues to grow more and more Yandere for her. But after Kagura kidnaps her in Episode 15,and she figures out that he actually means the opposite of what he says, she regains her sympathy for him.
Talking In Your Sleep: While unconscious in Episode 6, she mumbles about apologizing to Kagura; when she comes to her senses, she claims she can't remember and doesn't know why.
Tarot Motifs: Is associated with the Ace of Hearts.
Type B. She is an all-around Nice Girl to everyone, but her tsuntsun can manifest whenever Amata starts floating around in the presence of another girl (mostly courtesy of Zessica).
She also shows her tsuntsun to Zen, mostly because of his trolling nature.
The Unfavorite: In episode 18, Mikono recieves a letter from her father. As she reads the letter, she figures out that it wasn't for her. It was for her brother, Cayenne...Ouch.
A girl with the power to release energy blasts from her hand. Showing no inhibition about cross-gender Unions (earning her MIX and Suomi's scolding), she also started taking interest in Amata, going so far as to tease him just to see him float around, much to Mikono's jealousy.
Not quite anymore, for she confessed in episode 16
It's still pretty unrequited since she was rejected.
Because Destiny Says So: Believes that Kagura and Mikono are destined for each other because they are the reincarnations of Apollon and Sylvie, and that Mikono won't choose Amata in the end.
Chekhov's Gun: Her preference for Stripperiffic clothing becomes a key to defeating Jin's Radius Gnis for the third time. While being hit with missiles that destroy her, Amata's, and Mikono's Vector suits, Zessica realizes that the less clothing she has, the more sensitive she becomes to the missiles, allowing her to dodge them effortlessly. She starts tearing off more of her suit and encourages Amata and Mikono to do the same while she tears down Radius Gnis with Aquarion Spada.
Green-Eyed Monster: Gets depressed and jealous whenever she sees Amata and Mikono together, although she mostly keeps it to herself. As of Episode 12, these repressed feelings are starting to seep out, such as accidentally crushing a pole with her powers after she sees Amata fly for Mikono.
Stepford Smiler: Shows signs of this in Episode 13 to hide her depression/jealousy over Amata and Mikono.
Stripperiffic/Vapor Wear: Who else would wear a tank-top that barely tries to hide her breasts and ridiculously short shorts with a side opening bound together by laces which show that she doesn't wear underwear at all?
And the bikini she wears during the Beach Episode? The top is basically a black version of that from her regular clothes.
Then she zig-zags this with the dress she wears at the end of the episode, which shows off a lot more of her chest.
Tarot Motifs: Is associated with the Ace of Diamonds.
Thanks for the Mammary:Is at the receiving end of this from an Altair local in episode 19. Strangely it wasn't done out of perversion, but curiosity - the locals of Altair have not seen a living female in ages and thus don't know what breasts are.
What Is This Feeling?: Started feeling embarrassment at the end of Episode 8 over seeing Amata half-naked after all three stripped off their Vector suits to allow them to defeat Radius Gnis.
Mikono's older brother and a Chick Magnet (though to a lesser extent than Shrade). His power is psychic vision through a red point of light emanating from his forehead (like a Third Eye of sorts), which allows him to become an excellent sniper. However, he is also haunted by visions of Mikono perishing through a chain of events apparently linked to the Aquarion, and thus he tries his best to keep Mikono safe, even if he has to demoralize her.
Dangerously Genre Savvy/Wrong Genre Savvy: He's an odd mix between these. Due to his visions of Mikono's death related to the Aquarion, he tries his best to keep her away from anything related to it—by having to lower her self-esteem a few notches. Then after having visions of a one-eyed monster, he quickly identifies Jin as a spy, except he almost got Yunoha caught in a crossfire because he tried to confront him about it.
Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Can be downright mean at times to his own sister, but only because he doesn't want her, a Muggle Born of Mages, to risk her life fighting Abductors, at least not until she tells him that she's willing to get hurt alongside him.
Tsundere: A male Type A—frequently abrasive towards everybody (especially Amata), but occasionally shows a softer, protective side towards Mikono, and as a few episodes show, is also starting to defrost to Shrade.
Andy can find any weak point in any structure and has control over the power of the earth. Out of all the boys of Neo DEAVA, he is the most eager to make contact with girls.
Superpower Meltdown: After his rejection by Mix in the beach episode, he became unstable getting depressed thinking of her would cause him to tunnel immediately beneath himself whenever he thought about it. This went From Bad To Worse when he discovers Mix's fate due to the Curse of Eve.
Running Gag: Frequently being denied a chance to make cross-gender Unions. He even lampshades on his misfortune when he had to be swapped for Amata in making a union with Zessica and Shrade.
Yank the Dog's Chain: In Episode 9, just when he finally has a chance to form a cross-gender Union (with MIX and Mikono), he ended up having to cover MIX from Dangerously Genre Savvymook fire, knocking him unconscious and being forced to switch out of the Vector-X for Amata. But hey, at least he felt the orgasmic ecstasy of a Union twice (in "spirit" for the second one, at least).
A strict, serious girl with absolutely no interest (and, in fact, outright disgust) for males, believing them inferior to females in terms of combat potential. She is especially disdainful of Andy and his womanizing habits; in fact, her power is the diametrical opposite of Andy's: creating enclosures and covering up any weak spots.
Freudian Excuse: Her disdain for men and holes stems from her father, a sightseeing magazine writer, abandoning her and her mother in favor of a woman he met at a hole-in-the-wall bathhouse.
Gag Boobs: There's a reason Andy calls her well-endowed pair "big bangs."
Gender Bender: as with Brainwashed and Crazy above, this has happened since episode 19, but isn't explained until 20. Mix is affected by the disease that "wiped out" Altair's women... by turning their bodies and minds into those of men. After being so afflicted, they brainwashed her and sent her out as an enemy pilot against Aquarion, calling herself Mixy now (As in a combo of Mix and XY)
Neo DEAVA's smartest and most popular student, whose poor health prevents him from going to active service. His power is using sound to manipulate brainwaves.
Cast From Lifespan: Crea theorizes that the Aquarion's tendency to evenly distribute the Elements' powers among each other could be too much for Shrade's weak body (despite his high energy pool) to handle, and could be possibly lethal. He actually survives his first active sortie, but has to be hospitalized and was given a warning by Crea that the next sortie could become his last.
Cultured Badass: Not only is he a competent Element User, he also likes adding musical references to his speeches, especially whenever he is the narrator on the "On The Next" segments.
Dissonant Serenity: Andy lampshades on how calm he can be while mentally torturing Cayenne into stopping his attempted beatdown on Amata over the bizarre conclusion to their simulation battle.
Tarot Motifs: Is associated with the Ace of Spades.
Yunoha Surool
Voiced by: Yui Ogura
A terminally shy little girl with the power to turn herself invisible. Until Amata encouraged her to come out of her shell, all that is seen of her is a green frog-like doll she always carries around.
Cry Cute/Tender Tears: The sight of her in tears is enough to make Jin start wavering over his original goal of personally capturing a "Rare Iguna" worthy of becoming Altair's "Eve." Come Episode 13, she breaks down crying as Jin dies in front of her.
Despair Event Horizon: Jin's death nearly drives her into not wanting to live anymore. She recovers once Jin's spirit and Mikono encourage her to live.
Girls Love Stuffed Animals: Always carries around a green frog-like plushie which is, until Episode 7, her only sign of presence.
Go Through Me: Places herself between Jin and Cayenne, who was then armed with a stun gun, in order to protect the former when the latter confronted him about being a spy. The latter's gun fires at that precise moment, only for Jin to place himself in front of Yunoha and, by pure accident, block it with an energy shield.
Secret Secret Keeper: In Episode 12, she discovers that Jin is The Mole thanks to Mykage's interference. Conflicted by his deceit and her growing friendship/relationship with him, she keeps this knowledge from Jin until the next episode.
Heart Is an Awesome Power: Though it turns out to be pretty useful in their second fight against Jin's Radius Gnis, where she can turn the Aquarion invisible and thus impervious to damage, allowing Amata to finish it off with the "Subliminal Punch."
Shutter Bug: Implied, since she always shows up selling pictures of her classmates, including while fighting.
Yaoi Fangirl: Ships Cayenne and Shrade, and as of Episode 8, entertains the idea of a pairing between Amata and Andy after the former buys a picture of Andy from her, unaware that he only bought it because said picture managed to capture Kagura walking behind Andy.
Malloy Direzza
Voiced by:Kensuke Sato
A handsome dark-skinned student with the power to destabilize objects.
A veteran soldier and instructor of the male side of Neo DEAVA, Donar has a pair of prosthetic arms to replace those he lost on the day of the Aquarion Disaster. He also used to be sharpshooter.
Instructor of the female side of Neo DEAVA. Like MIX, she has hints of misandry and can be sometimes seen in mild arguments with her male counterpart, Donar.
Covert Pervert/Nun Too Holy: On Episode 8, while watching Mikono's spirit levels rapidly rising due to embarrassment over Amata seeing her half-naked, she describes to Donar the excitement of being stared at while half-naked.
One of Izumo's two main subordinates and a hot-blooded warrior who loves charging into battle headlong with Mithra Gnis, a machine suited for melee combat and Kagura's tendency to move around like a quadrupedal beast. He gains the ability of "Reversal."
Attack Reflector: Has gained the power to reverse, which allowed him to reflect Amata's Mugen Punch.
Expy: Bears a strong resemblance to Apollo, down to their heightened sense of smell. Episode 11 reveals that he is the reincarnation of Apollo/Apollon.
Leeroy Jenkins: As time passed he's increasingly becoming a liability to Izumo's plans, not to mention all the collateral damage he does whenever he's near his "smelly wench." So much so he has to be reined in by Mykage (and is literally caged) after losing to Aquarion for the second time. Fortunately for Mykage, he found a way to use Kagura's unpredictability in his favor.
One-Man Army: He was already powerful in Episode 1 where he thrashed two Aquarias like they were nothing. This is turned Up to Eleven in Episode 11, where he took down several of Altair's machines, wreaking havoc across Ianthe (capital of Altair) unless Izumo reopens the gate to Vega. Altair had to fire their Wave Motion Gunthrice and pepper him with a Beam Spamuntil he goes down... only for him to rise back and, with Mykage's aid, manage to teleport to Vega, where he defeats Amata's Aquarion Evol, and has to be defeated by a double-Aquarion teamup (Gepard of Jin/Yunoha, Cayenne and Zessica, and Spada of Shrade, Amata and Mikono).
Personality Powers: Inverted. His new found Reversal abilities changes his own personality. Shown in his encounter with Mikono in Episode 13, he now says the opposite of what he really feels.
It stinks. I want to kill that wench. I want to kill her, then take her in my arms... and crush her! My... Sylvie!
However it seems he says and hears the reverse of things in regards to her, as episode 15 showed. When Mikono asks him why he doesn't kill her right there on the scaffolds he blushes and looks over her body and asks basically "Right here?!" Its very possible he actually was meaning to say "I want to love her, take her in my arms and hold her softly."
You Can't Fight Fate: Like Zessica, he believes that he and Mikono will end up together because they are the reincarnations of Apollon and Sylvie.
Jin Muso
Voiced by: Jun Fukushima
Izumo's other subordinate and a cunning strategist. Unlike the hot-headed Kagura, Jin prefers manipulating Abductor Mooks from high up in space or puppet-controlling Radius Gnis, a machine suited for long-range combat which complements his natural ability to generate energy shields.
Accidental Pervert: In Episode 10, he finally does what Andy has yet to — infiltrate the girls' changing room (although unintentionally on his part).
Deflector Shields: His Element power, discovered purely by accident when he tried to shield Yunoha from Cayenne's stun gun accidentally firing on her (which was intended for him).
Fish out of Water: Even as he infiltrated Neo DEAVA in Episode 10, his unfamiliarity with females (besides a hologram of Alicia) really shows in his awkward interaction with the girls.
Genre Savvy: When it comes to piloting. Not so much when it comes to school life or interacting with girls.
Magic Tool: His device, which contains a hologram of Alicia.
Marionette Master: Prefers controlling Abductor Mooks from high up in space. When he has to send out Radius Gnis, he either controls it from the comfort of his room (in Episode 7) or pilots it by himself (Episodes 4 and 8).
New Transfer Student: As of Episode 10, he poses as one to Neo DEAVA (stealing the identity of one "Akbarjin Batbayar") in his own quest to find a Reaigler worthy of becoming Altair's "Eve."
Not In This For Your Revolution: Like Kagura, he'd rather spend time listening to holographic recordings of Alicia than join Altair's abductions. But since he's the Last of His Kind, Altair has huge expectations of him.
Sacrificial Lion: He fits this to a tee. Word Of God says that he was slated to die before the series even started. His death showed everyone that Mykage is not as harmless as he seems. People begin to leave the school fearing for their lives. His death also causes a massive Heroic BSOD to come upon all of the major characters.
This Cannot Be!: Ends his third loss to Aquarion baffled at how the latter managed to come back from a serious disadvantage, dodge all his remaining ammo, and knock his Radius Gnis out with an energized punch.
Light Is Not Evil: His Ahura Gnis has a light themed design and part of its named comes from the God of Good in Zoroastrianism.
Even Evil Has Standards: Chews out Mykage thrice — on Episode 8, for manipulating three of Jin's most loyal henchmen into becoming his pawns; on Episode 11, over allowing the crazed Kagura to go to Vega to get his "smelly wench"; and on Episode 14, over killing Jin and then holding a eulogy for him before the rest of Altair.
Well-Intentioned Extremist: Tells Jin that their mission wasn't to invade Vega, but to find suitable females to repopulate their race whose female population largely died out due to a mysterious disease, rendering Altair virtually sterile.
A Priest of Altair who has recently awoken from stasis in a glass-like encasing.
Ambiguously Evil: Unlike the rest of Altair, he cares not one bit for their scramble for survival and has his own agenda — the awakening of the original Aquarion. He has also shown the ability to manipulate others, something even Izumo disapproves of.
Refuge in Audacity: Killing Jin in Episode 13 and then holding a eulogy for him come next Episode, although this could be seen as his way to further sway the rest of Altair into becoming his Unwitting Pawns.
Sealed Evil in a Can: Remained in a crystalline stasis until he wakes up at the end of Episode 4.
