!Main Characters

[[folder:Both]]
* BustContrastDuo: Ichiko has one of the biggest busts out of any girl in the series and her SitcomArchNemesis Momiji's chest is flat like a washboard. Ichiko's huge rack is the main reason why [[ACupAngst Momiji]] hates Ichiko from the get-go.
* FusionDance: They fuse their bodies using a Misfortune God item in chapter 27 to keep Yamabuki from extracting Ichiko's fortune. It basically cancels out both of their powers to zero, after which they split the power they have with Yamabuki equally, putting them on the same level. And then they apologize for being jerks in the first place.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: This is what their relationship ends up growing into.
* LikeAnOldMarriedCouple: Their dynamic develops into this. Their constant banter is proof of how conformable they have become with each other. Yamabuki [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] this when she sees the two arguing over Momiji not doing her own laundry and compares them to a deadbeat husband and his nagging wife.
* LovelyAngels: Ichiko is a big-breasted human girl with an absurd level of luck and Momiji is a flat-chested Misfortune God with equally bad luck; as you would expect, they're polar opposites. They start off in a SitcomArchNemesis relationship, but they later grow into VitriolicBestBuds and work together to face enemies like Tanpopo, Botan and Ikari.
* MayflyDecemberFriendship: Momiji is centuries old and as a deity, she ages at a much slower rate than humans like Ichiko. It's pointed out more than once that Momiji is meant to eventually leave Ichiko's side because of this.
* PowerMakesYourHairGrow: After [[spoiler:absorbing a massive amount of Ikari's energy]], Ichiko and Momiji gain a SuperMode with their hair growing past their feet.
* SitcomArchNemesis: They piss each other off by basically ''existing.'' Ichiko has extreme luck and breasts that Momiji would kill for. In return, Ichiko can't stand Momiji's sarcasm, intrusiveness, and lying.
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Ichiko is much more feminine and well-kempt than the crude and grubby Momiji.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Both loathe to acknowledge that maybe they don't really hate each other, though as time goes on they become more open about it. In the end, Ichiko and Momiji become very close and can trust each other in their own way.

[[folder:Ichiko Sakura]]
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sakura_ichiko.png]]

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KanaHanazawa (Japanese), Creator/BrinaPalencia (English)

The unofficial "princess" of Taion High School, Ichiko is a Mary Sue in the making: beautiful, strong, athletic, smart, popular with boys, and blessed with a great rack. She's also quite spoiled rotten inside, and her perpetually good fortune is revealed to be the result of unconsciously sucking out that of others. Beneath that rotten core, however, is a kind soul still hurting from the many years of parental neglect.
----
* AcademicAthlete: Thanks to her fortune energy, Ichiko is excellent at both studies and sports.
* AllLovingHeroine: She becomes this through her CharacterDevelopment. Ichiko wants to make sure everyone gets a happy ending, even the BigBad Ikari.
* BadassInDistress: In the Tanpopo arc, Ichiko is defeated by Tanpopo and allows herself to be captured because Tanpopo will kill her friends if she doesn't. Momiji and the rest of her friends go to save Ichiko since the Fortune Gods want to erase Ichiko's existence because of her excessively good luck. Near the end of the arc, Ichiko receives a much-needed scolding from Momiji for acting helpless while her friends are putting themselves in danger for her sake and Ichiko frees herself from the ShockCollar to take on Tanpopo.
* BaitAndSwitchCharacterIntro: The first chapter has her looking and acting angelic while [[{{Gonk}} ugly]] girls in the background talk badly about her while she's secretly in range to hear them. Her face is shadowed, looking depressed... and then she bursts out laughing and gloating about how awesome she is.
* BattleCouple: In the FinalBattle against Ikari, Ichiko and Keita fight together and repeatedly express their feelings for each other to boost their willpower with the Misfortune God Item they're using.
* BerserkButton: She really can't stand [[AbusiveParents parents that mistreat and/or neglect their children]], just like her own.
* BigBreastPride: She likes to boast about her huge rack, especially because her SitcomArchNemesis has a bad case of ACupAngst.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Deconstructed. She's sweet and polite to her classmates, but utterly callous, self-absorbed, rude, mean-spirited, selfish and condescending to most people who know her better. And she's well aware that she's keeping a sweet facade, now under threat from Momiji's bullying. [[BrokenBird Beneath all that, however...]]
* BoringButPractical: During her fight with Ranmaru, Ichiko wins through combination of [[BornLucky her good luck]] and putting Ranmaru in an armbar until she surrendered.
* BornLucky: She's so incredibly lucky that it actually curses the people around her because she absorbs ''their'' luck. Taking out even tiny amounts of the energy that fuels her luck can be used to heal others and cause similarly miraculous occurrences.
* BraidsOfAction: After [[spoiler:achieving godhood by absorbing a massive amount of Ikari's energy]], Ichiko's [[PowerMakesYourHairGrow hair grows past her feet]] and gains a braid.
* BrokenAce: Rich, beautiful, popular with boys, ridiculously lucky, intelligent and doesn't need to work hard. There is basically nothing she does not have-- except any friends, family, peers, and the ability to take care of her own homestead. This has resulted in intense anti-social behavior and a self-destructive ItsAllAboutMe complex.
* BrokenBird: Beneath that callous, bitchy facade lies a sad little girl suffering from ParentalNeglect, loneliness, and continually haunted by a horrible childhood betrayal.
* BroughtDownToNormal: Her fortune energy is taken away by Momiji during Tama's introduction arc. [[spoiler:Another instance occurs at the start of Ikari arc. Both cases don't last long. At the end of the series, she decides to give up all her fortune powers for good.]]
* CallingTheOldManOut: Her father first shows his face to her after years to ask her to move to America with him and make up for the time they couldn't spend together before. Ichiko snaps, tries to ''attack him with a giant hammer'' and yells at him for essentially abandoning her since childhood and then appear out of nowhere to ask her to move to another continent without any consideration for her feelings.
* CantStandThemCantLiveWithoutThem: Momiji is constantly driving Ichiko nuts with her attempts to steal her good luck. When Momiji turns into a human NiceGirl and doesn't seek to fight her anymore, Ichiko gets bored and realizes Momiji's antics make her life more fun. [[spoiler:When Momiji has to leave forever at the end of the manga, Ichiko is forced to admit how much she will miss Momiji and breaks down crying as they bid farewell to each other.]]
* CatchPhrase: English-dubbed Ichiko seems to have a habit of shouting "GET OUTTA MAH HOUSE!" to Momiji.
* CherryBlossomGirl: Sakura is her family name and her level of good luck is abnormally high. Her personality initially doesn't fit the archetype as she's a self-centered RichBitch, but she improves a lot through CharacterDevelopment. When Keita [[spoiler:gives a LoveConfession to Ichiko]], the cherry trees behind her burst into full bloom, even though it's November.
* ClingyJealousGirl: She gets very upset whenever other girls get close to Keita, although Ichiko herself can't tell why.
* CloseCallHaircut: A portion of her hair gets cut off when dodging the needle of Momiji's syringe.
* ContraltoOfDanger: When Ichiko gets angry, her behavior and ''voice'' becomes more befitting of a middle-aged gangster than a young girl.
* CryCute: So heart-achingly cute it's hard to believe those tears come from a callous, selfish school princess.
* CynicismCatalyst: Kurumi's betrayal drove the once sweet, cuddly kid into the BitchInSheepsClothing she has become when the series started. Once other characters helped her transcend her personal demons, her innate kindness rises again.
* DCupDistress: Even though Ichiko is usually happy about her impressive breast size, at one point in the manga they grow so big that the buttons of her shirt pop up and hit Keita right in the {{Pressure Point}}s of his face, instantly knocking him out. Ichiko gets so upset about this that she asks Momiji for a breast reduction surgery.
* DaddysGirl: The dearest person to Ichiko is her surrogate father Suwano since he was the only person who always looked after her since infancy. Her relationship with her biological father is very troubled because Ichiko resents his neglect, even if he regrets it.
* DoomMagnet: Until she seals the ability by using an item, she would drain the fortune from her surroundings, causing destruction and despair for people around her, moreso the closer she was to them.
* DudeHesLikeInAComa: She kisses an unconscious Keita to [[MotivationalKiss gain enough confidence before the final fight with Ikari]].
* DudeMagnet: Every guy at her school is crazy about her.
* EasternZodiac: Her Shomin Shourai can summon up to twelve Guardian Gods, each one representing an animal on the Zodiac.
* EmbarrassingDampSheets: Ichiko feels utterly humiliated when she wets the bed at Keita's house after being turned into a little kid by Momiji.
* EmbarrassingNickname: "Chichiko", which can be translated into "[[LuckyTranslation Titty-ko]]" and keep the same meaning.
* ExpositoryHairstyleChange: She gets a shorter hairstyle towards the end of the series, showing her CharacterDevelopment into a nicer and more upbeat girl.
* FanservicePack: Her bust size is B96 at the start of the series and they keep growing. According to Ranmaru and the character profile, they're nearly B100 when the manga is ending.
* FaustianRebellion: Her incredible Fortune energy was given to her by Ikari [[spoiler:as part of a plan to make Kanna into a god]]. Towards the end of the manga, Ichiko uses her power to fight against Ikari and stop his EvilPlan.
* FinalFirstHug: In the final chapter, [[spoiler:Momiji appears before Ichiko for one last time to give her a proper goodbye. Ichiko pretends to fight her like usual... before crumbling into mess of tears and letting her real feelings out (which Momiji was waiting for). Ichiko started bawling into Momiji's arms and telling her how sorry she was for the way she acted when they first met and that she was so grateful Momiji had mended her broken heart even though she felt unworthy of her help. This is the first and only time Ichiko openly expresses how much Momiji means to her before the latter leaves her life forever.]]
* FirstGirlWins: The first to interact with Keita after he's introduced, the one he falls for and [[spoiler:eventually the one Keita confesses his love to]].
* FloralThemeNaming: Sakura is the Japanese name for cherry blossom.
* FreudianExcuse: A BitchInSheepsClothing posed as her friend only to steal her crush away. Ichiko decided to not let something like that happen to her again by becoming a BitchInSheepsClothing herself.
* FriendlessBackground: She didn't have any friends before high school due to the jealousy of her peers. One girl got close to her in late elementary school, but she was just a FalseFriend who pretended to like her for her own gain. Ranmaru is the first person to become Ichiko's true friend.
* FriendshipMoment: Early in the series, she kicks Momiji out of her closet when the latter moves in uninvited, so she goes and sleeps under a bridge. Many chapters later when they're VitriolicBestBuds, she feels bad and invites her back.
* GagBoobs: Her large bust is one of the more common sources of humor. She even thinks she somehow managed to gain weight despite her lucky nature. Nope, her breasts just grew again.
* {{Gainaxing}}: In the anime, she's quite bouncy.
* GoodFeelsGood: After grudgingly agreeing to help the people around her, she realizes that she actually likes helping people.
%%* GutturalGrowler: When angered.
* HairTriggerTemper: She can go from calm to extremely angry with minimal provocation.
* HatesBeingAlone: Ichiko grew up without friends and was neglected by her busy parents, which made her despise the feeling of loneliness.
* HatesTheirParent: Ichiko expresses some very bad feelings towards her father Kazuma when he comes to visit her after years. This is understandable given that Ichiko's parents were almost completely absent throughout most of her life because they were working overseas, which Ichiko sees as no excuse for ParentalNeglect. Her father's arc has Ichiko understanding that her father does care about her despite his faults and while she hasn't completely forgiven him, she's willing to accept his attempts of bonding with her.
* HeIsNotMyBoyfriend: She tries to deny there is anything romantic going on between her and Keita. She isn't fooling anyone.
* HealTheCutie: This is the core of Ichiko's character arc. The absence of her parents in her life and feeling betrayed by the only girl who pretended to be her friend made the once innocent girl into a self-centered RichBitch who has decided to care for no one but herself and her butler. The Misfortune God Momiji puts her through several trials to make her realize helping people and making true friends is good. Gradually, she melts back into being a sweet, happy girl, and by the end of the manga, is no longer in need of Momiji to rehabilitate her, because Ichiko has turned into an even bigger sweetheart than ever before.
* HeroicBSOD: During the Ikari arc, [[spoiler:a bond severance god snaps the relationships Ichiko has with basically everyone that's not Keita or Momiji. Keita's memory is erased and Momiji fakes one of those BreakHerHeartToSaveHer situations. This leaves Ichiko on verge of breaking down until she realizes what Momiji was doing. She halfway recovers and when Kumagai tells her what happened to Ranmaru and Nadeshiko, she basically returns to normal.]]
* HeyYou: She refers to Momiji by her title rather than her name for quite some time. The first time she calls her by her name isn't until Momiji's personality not only flips, but she's actually about to die because of it.
* HiddenHeartOfGold: Ichiko tries hard to act like the most despicable person to anyone new she meets in an attempt to push people away. Anyone who knows her a bit better can figure out that she's not a bad person; just lonely and scared of being hurt.
* IJustWantToBeLoved: Part of her resentment towards Keita is that, though materially poor and abandoned by parents, at least he has siblings who love him just as much as he loves them back, in stark contrast to her situation -- rich in belongings but poor in care.
* IJustWantToHaveFriends: Despite trying to pretend otherwise, Ichiko desperately wishes to have friends she can open up to, but her FalseFriend Kurumi scarred her so badly that she's too scared to befriend anyone. Ichiko finally gets over this by gathering the courage to accept Ranmaru as her friend.
* ImportantHairAccessory: In the final chapters of the manga, she starts wearing a cherry blossom hairpin to symbolize her new open, kind-hearted, and cheerful personality.
* ImportantHaircut: At the end of the series, Ichiko trims her sassy hair down into an adorable bob, allowing herself to be girly and approachable, [[spoiler:especially for her boyfriend]].
* InconsistentColoring: Colored pages and covers of the manga showed Ichiko with brown eyes in early volumes until she began being drawn with cyan eyes instead, which is the color the anime used.
* InferioritySuperiorityComplex: The main reason why she stubbornly refuses to give up her good luck is that the only way Ichiko can feel safe is by being treated as special and superior by others.
* ItsAllAboutMe: At the beginning, all she cares about is herself and Suwano. Anyone else can go suffer and die in a ditch for all she cares.
* JerkassHasAPoint: She pisses off Keita and his family early on by noting he'd have an easier time living with his large family if they had more money and keeps talking about it when it's clear that A. his family is happy and B. he'd rather that she shut up already. However, they do admit that she's perfectly right and that they'd like more money.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: No matter how condescending, selfish and bitchy she is, deep down she genuinely cares for the few people she can call her friends, such as Keita, Suwano, Ranmaru and even Momiji.
* KickingAssInAllHerFinery: After [[spoiler:becoming a god]] at the end of the FinalBattle, she defeats Ikari while wearing a gorgeous and elaborate kimono.
* KindheartedCatLover: She adopts a small kitten she names Tama as her pet. This is one of the biggest signs that Ichiko's emotional growth into a gentler and compassionate person.
* LackOfEmpathy: In the second chapter, she badly offends Keita with her RichBitch attitude, completely unaware as to why. She's also constantly unconcerned about other people's problems and actively wants to see them harmed if it will benefit her in the slightest. However, it's not that she has ''no'' empathy, she's simply a little out of touch with it after acting aloof for so long.
* LadySwearsALot: Even if Crunchyroll-based subs somewhat exaggerate it, Ichiko has a ''very'' foul mouth in the original regardless.
* LargeHam: And boy is Creator/KanaHanazawa having the time of her life!
* LethalChef: She cannot cook at all. She can turn a kitchen full of delicious ingredients into nuclear waste in two minutes. Her cooking once made a god explode. Her cooking is so bad that she cannot even crack an egg without destroying the yolk without extreme practice. She manages to improve her skills enough to make a decent meal for her boyfriend by the end of the series.
* LikeParentLikeSpouse: Ichiko feels very attracted to men who are reliable caretakers like her father figure Suwano. This is [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] in the SickEpisode where Ichiko is hallucinating because of her cold and for a moment, she sees her crush Keita as Suwano. She also gets aroused at the thought of Keita wearing one of Suwano's butler outfits.
* LonelyRichKid: Her parents are always too busy with work to spend time with her and the only girl who she thought was her friend pretended to like her to hurt her. After that, Ichiko chose to never open up to anyone other than her butler Suwano, but she still yearns for more company deep down. She grows out of it after she makes more friends thanks to Momiji.
* LonerTurnedFriend: Her good luck made her stand out way too much from her peers, which made it hard for her to make friends who didn't have ulterior motives. One of the most essential parts of her CharacterDevelopment is her forming a group of friends who truly care about her.
* LoonyFriendsImproveYourPersonality: Ichiko is a very self-centered RichBitch until the eccentric Momiji comes into her life and pushes Ichiko into making friends with a bunch of crazy and quirky characters. Despite finding them annoying at first, Ichiko comes to love the new friends who made her life so much fun and she grows into a much better person as a result.
* LovableAlphaBitch: At school, she's the boys' object of worship and the girls' target of jealousy. At the beginning, Ichiko couldn't be happier with all the attention she gets and sees everyone as lowlifes. However, she acts like this because she's afraid to get hurt if others see her vulnerable. Those who get to know her can see she's not that bad and she becomes a better person thanks to CharacterDevelopment.
* MagicSkirt: The manga admits the author doesn't want to draw panties, so Ichiko's skirt never moves out of place enough to see her undies.
* ManipulativeBitch: She controls others by tugging on their heartstrings. A lot.
* MartialArtsHeadband: In the FinalBattle, Momiji provides Ichiko with one of the same kind as Keita's so Ichiko also gains a power boost from her emotions.
* MinorLivingAlone: After she fires Suwano at the start of the series, Ichiko must live alone in her apartment. Unsurprisingly, being completely reliant on Suwano her entire life left her unprepared for it. She requires room service to clean her place, doesn't know how to do simple chores like washing dishes and only eats convenience store food because her [[LethalChef cooking is deadly]].
* MsFanservice: Ichiko has the biggest breasts in the main cast and the series always takes the chance to show her naked.
* NakedFirstImpression: Ayame and Botan first meet Ichiko when they sneak into her taking a bath. Since in both occasions it was a girl peeping at her, Ichiko was only mildly annoyed.
* {{Narcissist}}: At the beginning, the only person in the world that matters is Ichiko herself and maybe Suwano. After all, nobody is as perfect and wonderful as Ichiko.
* NeverBeHurtAgain: Back in grade school, she had a FalseFriend who manipulated her and stole her crush away by badmouthing her in front of him. Ichiko refuses to trust anyone because she's terrified of being hurt like that again. This starts changing after Ranmaru swears to never betray her and Ichiko accepts her as her first true friend.
* NoblewomansLaugh: Whenever she is extremely happy and/or full of herself, or whenever she tries to shrug off her latest act of kindness or conceal her insecurities.
* NoSocialSkills: You'd ''expect'' a beautiful and popular girl like Ichiko to be a social butterfly... but she is ''so'' ill at ease interacting with happy people that she would rather waste time at home ''literally'' counting the number of straws woven into her tatami mat.
* {{Ojou}}: She was born into a family that quickly became incredibly wealthy and lives at a penthouse with her personal butler. The tradeoff was that her parents were never around.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: When she's actually ''nice'' to Momiji and admits that she appreciates her after Botan's arc, Momiji just stares at her in shock, unable to come up with a stupid joke.
* PalsWithJesus: She and Momiji are quite close in their own {{vitriolic|bestbuds}} way, which is actually considered remarkable in universe. It's actually considered more remarkable on Momiji's part than Ichiko's [[spoiler:and puts her in line for a promotion when Yamabuki feels like retiring in a century or so.]] Humans and gods have a tough time interacting due to vastly different life spans and the divine perception that humans are largely selfish jerks.
* ParodySue: She is quite literally overly perfect. That is the premise of the story: Her perfection is the result of her being so ridiculously, incredible fortunate in her existence that it's actually destroying the balance of fortune in the world and making people around her suffer by coming into contact with her. However, when the story calms down a little it's quickly revealed that she's almost entirely isolated. While it seems at first that this is because she's a {{jerkass}} without equal, but it's actually always been that way. Bonds and empathy come from flaws and misfortune, not perfection.
* PervertedDrooling: After Keita [[spoiler:confesses his love to her]], she keeps drooling for a long while after her departure, while she keeps saying that she can't wait to come back to him.
* PluckyGirl: Once she sets her mind on something, she will never give up.
* PuppyLove: In elementary school, she had a crush on a boy named Yuusuke who clearly reciprocated. Unfortunately, Ichiko's so-called friend Kurumi also had a crush on Yuusuke and when he rejected her in favor of Ichiko, Kurumi told him spiteful lies about Ichiko so he would date her instead.
* {{Reincarnation}}: She's the reincarnation of a girl named Kanna who died centuries ago. Their attitudes, hair colors and styles are different, but otherwise they look similar enough that those who knew Kanna can tell exactly who Ichiko is.
* RichBitch: She's rude, arrogant, haughty and condescending to people without money like Keita. Unlike a lot of her annoying-clown-act[[note]]She often acts like an annoying clown to divert attention from things she doesn't want to talk about, an act that she gets away with basically every time because she already ''is'' an annoying clown.[[/note]], this part of her character does seem to have been largely genuine at the start, though she does grow out of it.
* SayItWithHearts: While fighting with Momiji she accidentally throws her out a window and runs to the balcony looking concerned. Her "Did I go too far?" is slightly marred by the big happy heart at the end, however.
* SchoolIdol: Ichiko has always been the most popular girl at her school, coming complete with an adoring fan club of male students who worship her.
* ShooTheDog: In the first chapter/episode, Ichiko fires her butler Suwano despite him being the only person she loves and trusts because her good luck could be threat to his life once again. They stay in contact through letters, though.
* ShowerOfAngst: In Chapter 60, Ichiko gets in a TroubledFetalPosition while taking a shower after [[spoiler:Momiji apparently abandons her while claiming their friendship was a lie]].
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: She has felt attracted to {{Nice Guy}}s since she was a child. Back in elementary school, she had a crush on one of her admirers who helped her a lot, although he still chose to believe a BitchInSheepsClothing before Ichiko. In the present, she develops a crush on the kindhearted, hardworking and humble Keita.
* SmittenTeenageGirl: She's crushing hard on Keita, often becoming bashful around him. Getting a LoveConfession from him gets her so fired up that she runs all the way across town with a lot of [[PervertedDrooling saliva coming out of her mouth]].
* SoBeautifulItsACurse: Ever since she was a child, Ichiko was extremely popular at school for being so much prettier than the other girls. This is one of the main causes of her isolation. The boys worship her like an idol without ever bothering to really know her and the girls ostracize her out of petty jealousy over how the guys ignore them in favor of Ichiko.
* SourOutsideSadInside: She's quite a massive BitchInSheepsClothing who thinks of nothing but herself. Behind that, however, lies a sad, broken little girl who just yearns for the loving care of her parents, whom she hadn't seen since infancy, not to mention the fact that she is still being haunted by the betrayal by a girl she once thought was her friend. All that trauma ultimately turned her into the AlphaBitch she has become when the series started. It came to the point that even her SitcomArchNemesis, resident {{Jerkass God}}dess Momiji, slowly started to mellow out to her and even become her TricksterMentor, helping her reconnect with humanity and bring back the kindness she used to have.
* StraightMan: While Momiji is extremely goofy and obnoxious, Ichiko attempts to keep her under control and out of her apartment to no avail.
* SuperStrength: Can lift clubs, iron hammers, ''her own bathtub'', you name it.
* TheyDiedBecauseOfYou: Downplayed. When Ichiko starts blaming Momiji for Suwano collapsing, Momiji flatly says that it's her own fault. This is exactly what she warned her would happen the previous day.
* TomboyishVoice: Ichiko's voice becomes practically '''masculine''' when she gets mad.
* TookALevelInBadass: As time goes on and she comes into contact with more deities, she actually ends up learning to use her fortune energy to translate to fighting powers.
* TookALevelInCheerfulness: She goes from a girl who hides her sadness and bitterness behind a mean façade to a cheerful and happy girl who's always smiling with the childlike innocence she once had.
* TookALevelInKindness: She goes from a horrible, selfish person that scapegoats someone who was trying to step in and protect her from a false shoplifting charge to someone willing to admit she cares about people with lots of friends and empathy for people.
* TouchedByVorlons: [[spoiler:Her massive fortune energy and ability to absorb it unconsciously was given by Ikari a long time ago, who infiltrated the Sakura household as a servant.]]
* TownGirls: The Neither. Ichiko has a girlier style and behavior than Ranmaru, but isn't anywhere near as refined and ladylike as Nadeshiko.
* TranquilFury: Sure, Ichiko may scream and yell [[LargeHam like a five-year-old with ADD]] when her anger is PlayedForLaughs, but when she is seething with quiet, articulate and ''calm'' anger (such as witnessing Genjurou forcing Ranmaru to become a boy) [[LetsGetDangerous you know she means business]].
* TrashOfTheTitans: Without Suwano, she needs to ask the room service of her building to clean her apartment every few days because she keeps making a mess out of it.
* {{Tsundere}}: Harsh type. She acts all haughty, abrasive, domineering and is prone to comedic violence in a desperate effort to conceal how extremely soft and sensitive she really is. Suwano is initially the only one who gets to see her kinder side, but she eventually opens up to Keita, Ranmaru and even Momiji.
* TwoFirstNames: Her family name Sakura is a fairly common Japanese female name.
* UnresolvedSexualTension: She has an ongoing attraction with Keita, but since neither of them wants to take the initiative, Momiji creates the situations for them to get more intimate.
* UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: She's callous, rude, selfish and thoughtless, so it would be amusing to see her suffer. Alas, her good energy tends to bring misfortune to people around her instead.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Momiji warns that her constant good fortune, taken by unconsciously absorbing those of others around her, will inevitably bring harm to them. This trope hits Ichiko close to home when her lifelong butler nearly died of a heart attack.
* UptownGirl: Ichiko is a rich girl and her love interest is a guy from a poor family who has to take part-time jobs to support his siblings.
* UsedToBeASweetKid: In elementary school, she was isolated from her peers, but she was much nicer and more innocent back then. One serious betrayal later and she hides her loneliness behind a mean and selfish facade, but still wants someone to see past it.
* VictoriasSecretCompartment: After temporarily turning into a GiantWoman [[spoiler:thanks to absorbing Ikari's energy]], Ichiko places Keita between her enormous breasts "for his safety", to his utter embarrassment.
* WasItAllALie: When Ikari is [[spoiler:systematically wiping out the gods in the city]], Ichiko comes into conflict with [[spoiler:Momiji, who intends to sacrifice herself to stop Ikari.]] When Ichiko tries to get in the way she asks if everything [[spoiler:Momiji has down to help her was a lie]] and instantly gets a 'Yes, totally.' While an astute reader would know that this doesn't make sense, Ichiko has been having a ''very'' bad day by that point. [[spoiler:Turns out Momiji was telling Ichiko to think the opposite of what she said.]]
* WoodenKatanasAreEvenBetter: Her WeaponOfChoice is the Soumin Shourai, an enchanted bokken given to her by Bobby, with which she can channel her good fortune energy by way of summoning {{Moe Anthropomorphism}}s of the EasternZodiac.
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: She can pull off various submission moves.

[[folder:Momiji Binbouda]]
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/binbouda_momiji.png]]

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YumiUchiyama (Japanese), Creator/ColleenClinkenbeard (English)

A deity of misfortune sent to the human world to take away Ichiko's excess good karma before she unwittingly causes more havoc. She wields a giant hypodermic needle and also likes to dress herself up in different costumes.
----
* ACupAngst: Her small cup size is a point of constant irritation.
* TheAce: When she undergoes a radical personality change caused by taking a bath, Momiji becomes ridiculously good at every subject in Ichiko's school and amazes all her classmates with her impeccable skills.
* TheAlmightyDollar: Inverted, since she's a deity of poverty and misfortune and is BornUnlucky as a result.
* BadassInDistress: The first part of the final arc is about Ichiko coming to Momiji's rescue at the world of misfortune gods because Momiji was intended to be sacrificed [[spoiler:to eliminate the second half of Ikari's soul]].
* BandageBabe: She keeps her right arm wrapped up at all time, making it seem as though she's wearing a cast. It's actually covering up the numerous curses that cover it.
* BarefootPoverty: Played with. As the god of poverty, Momiji assumes a vagabond look with only one shoe, the left, leaving the other foot bare (save indoors, when she respectfully wears no shoes at all). In any other outfit besides her default, she wears two shoes.
* BerserkButton:
** Making fun [[ACupAngst of her flat chest]].
** Ichiko acting like a DamselInDistress really sets her off.
* BornUnlucky: Like Ichiko, her level of energy is off the charts. However, unlike Ichiko, it's misfortune energy and as a result she's flat chested, dirty, lazy, unpopular and just has rather poor luck all around. Despite having better use of her abilities than Ichiko, there's little point in a direct confrontation when the universe bends over backward for your opponent.
* BreakHerHeartToSaveHer: [[spoiler:Subverted. Momiji sets one of these up to fool Chisha, but she was actually passing along a message to Ichiko that took her a little while to figure out, after which she springs into action.]]
* BrilliantButLazy: Despite appearances, Momiji is actually a powerful and competent goddess. If she bothers to try.
* ButForMeItWasTuesday: In a superpowered tennis match, Momiji traumatized Ichiko's partner Shion. When they meet again, Momiji has completely forgotten about him and has no idea of why he's terrified of her.
* ButNowIMustGo: When her job is complete, she'll have to return to the divine realm.
* BystanderSyndrome: So well-known is she among her fellow deities for her constant apathy that even Yamabuki is surprised that Momiji is taking her grudge against Ichiko a little bit too seriously.
* CharacterDevelopment: More or less implied to be the reason the other misfortune gods don't replace Momiji despite her failure to get Ichiko's energy. They all think it's a good thing that the normally lazy and apathetic goddess is finally taking her job seriously.
* ClosetSublet: At the end of the Botan arc, Ichiko gives Momiji permission to reside in her closet so she doesn't have to spend the night under a bridge. Ichiko directly compares Momiji to Franchise/{{Doraemon}} for it.
* ConfusionFu: She almost never fights seriously, making her fights more of a spectacle and an irritation for anyone that she's up against, who don't really know what to do and can't react properly. [[spoiler:When actually trying she's pretty damn dangerous though and cuts out all the jokes.]]
* CosplayOtakuGirl: Takes every opportunity to dress up as characters within the series well as from other manga and anime.
* CurbStompBattle: During the Ikari arc she intends to go back to the world of the gods [[spoiler:to sacrifice herself]]. Before leaving, she enters a fight completely seriously for perhaps the first time in the entire manga [[spoiler:and absolutely flattens Ichiko.]]
* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: She has golden hair and golden eyes.
* DCupDistress: Quite ironically given her characteristic ACupAngst, Momiji realizes just how much of an inconvenience big breasts can be when she briefly swaps bodies with Ichiko. Momij complains they’re so heavy that just walking is a pain and her back is killing her. With that, Momiji for once recognizes Ichiko has hardships of her own.
* DeclarationOfProtection: In the Botan arc, Momiji makes a proclamation that she will protect Ichiko as her partner.
* {{Deuteragonist}}: The story follows Momiji nearly as much as it does Ichiko. Momiji tends to spark a lot of the conflicts of the story, though she's frequently necessary when it comes to their resolution as well. And she's always there making fun of you.
* DisabledDeity: She has an arm cast on her right arm. However, her arm is perfectly fine; the cast is actually a PowerLimiter for her misfortune.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Though she's not above taking drastic measures to accomplish her mission, such as outright threatening to kill Ichiko, she actually is averse to murder, or at least letting someone die on her watch, because that would instantly jeopardize her presence in the human realm.
* FakeBoobs: She'll occasionally decide to stuff her shirt with something like melon bread or actual melons to fake having cleavage, though she doesn't bother to button up.
* TheFakeCutie: Acts super cutesy sometimes in contrast to her lazy, selfish personality. Why? Because it will annoy people.
* FashionableAsymmetry: In her default outfit, she only wears one shoe.
* FloralThemeNaming: Momiji is the name for autumn leaves in Japanese language.
* FriendshipMoment: Momiji is an odd one, so she often pretends her moments of concern over Ichiko are just more incidences of screwing with her like normal. However, no matter what she says to the contrary, she ''is'' consistently concerned for Ichiko's well-being and will quickly come to her defense. [[spoiler:Even when she's finally honest that she actually does care about Ichiko's well-being as more than just her job, it's stated in reverse in order in trick an observer.]]
* TheGadfly: She likes screwing with people for shits and giggles, especially Ichiko.
* GenericCuteness: Given that she's considered unattractive for things that rarely show up well in printed form if at all (dirt and smell) she ends up still being fairly cute.
* GetAHoldOfYourselfWoman: She often does this to Ichiko in the moments where she's feeling troubled or hesitating.
* GiantMedicalSyringe: She wields giant hypodermic needles attached to the massive bandages covering her right arm.
* GirlishPigtails: She's rather immature for someone over a century old and gets long, ratty twin tails to show it.
* GoodIsNotNice: She means well, in her own lazy and selfish way, but a lot of the time she's just screwing around and messing people. Also, the way she helps out is often unnecessarily humiliating.
* GuileHeroine: Her penchant for the ZanyScheme aside, when faced with a serious threat, Momiji is usually the one with an unconventional plan to defeat their adversary.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: After she's forced to take a bath, she fits the trope to T. {{Depower}}ed Momiji is practically a saint who is kind to everyone and tries to befriend Ichiko. It doesn't last long as she returns to being a JerkassGod after she gets dirty.
* HateAtFirstSight: She instantly hates Ichiko after just taking a look at her photo, mainly because [[ACupAngst Ichiko's oversized breasts anger her.]]
* HatesBaths: {{Justified|Trope}}. Momiji loses her powers when she gets cleaned up and her personality makes a radical change into a saintly NiceGirl. No wonder she avoids taking a bath.
* HotGoddess: Not quickly apparent, owing to her [[RummageSaleReject usual getup]], but when [[SheCleansUpNicely she does tidy up]], she's [[BeautifulAllAlong quite the stunner]].
* ImmortalImmaturity: {{Zigzagged}}. She's hundreds of years old, but her personality is generally very goofy and not that mature compared to Ichiko. However, she proves that she can be a wise guide and advisor to Ichiko over the course of the series.
* InhumanEyeConcealers: Her PeekABangs hide a second seal for her Misfortune energy placed on her right eye.
* ItAmusedMe: Freely gives this as the reason she makes Ichiko and Tanpopo dress as {{Magical Girl}}s during their fight. Ichiko is NOT pleased.
* ItsPersonal: How she eventually comes to see her rivalry with Ichiko.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Despite the crude bum that she is, Momiji's heart is in the right place. Even before any CharacterDevelopment sits in, she's one of the only gods to have any faith in human decency. What's more, she even believes that Ichiko of all people will do the right thing.
* {{Kawaiiko}}: Her "Gadget of Misfortune" narrator form, in which she takes a smaller form and speaks in a cutesy tone.
* TheLadette: She picks her nose, is extremely unladylike and has a crude sense of humor.
* LadySwearsALot: Not as much as Ichiko but ''damn'' does her mouth need a gargle of strong disinfectants.
* LargeHam: Everything about her is over-the-top, just like Ichiko if not more.
* LazyBum: She's quite the slob and hates to do anything that takes effort.
* LoserDeity: Being the goddess of poverty and misfortune this is a given. She's a DisabledDeity with only one good hand to use, not so pretty, having ACupAngst (an advantage [[BuxomIsBetter Ichiko exploits well to bother her]]) and, as the goddess of poverty she is, Momiji usually sleeps under a river like a hobo.
* MessyHair: From the looks of her hair, she probably has never used a comb in her life. Since misfortune gods keep their powers by never cleaning up, it makes sense.
* MundaneUtility: Uses her cursed arm to cause a storm to force Ichiko to stay at Keita's when he's sick.
* NewTransferStudent: As of Chapter/Episode 2, she "transfers" into Taion High to keep an eye on Ichiko.
* NiceGirl: If forced to wash, she becomes ridiculously perfect, diligent and nice. It weirds Ichiko out and even Bobby thinks it would be wrong to do anything bad to her.
* TheNotLoveInterest: Momiji is the {{Deuteragonist}} and she becomes the most influential person in Ichiko's life who significantly improves her personality by helping her overcome her personal problems. This is [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] when the characters joke about how the readers tend to mistake the manga for a YuriGenre because of how much the relationship between Ichiko and Momiji is emphasized and developed in comparison to the one between Ichiko and her true male love interest Keita.
* OlderThanSheLooks: Gods don't seem to be quite immortal since they clearly age, but Momiji is still well over a century old while still the equivalent of about a fifteen or sixteen-year-old. According to the author, this makes it okay for her to drink!
* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: She eventually assumes this sort of attitude towards Ichiko. Momiji doesn't want any other misfortune god to steal Ichiko's good luck energy.
* ParodySue: If her body is washed, Momiji turns into a ridiculously perfect saintlike PuritySue parody. Even [[LovableSexManiac Bobby]] can't bring himself to do perverted things to her.
* PeekABangs: Her right eye is always hidden by her bangs.
* PetTheDog: As time passes, she begins to sympathize with Ichiko, and sometimes she helps her by extracting some of her fortune so she can use them by breaking the flasks.
* PhysicalGoddess: Gods reside in another world entirely made of an entirely different type of material. Manifesting in the human world requires her to possess an effigy of sorts, but once there she apparently has full access to her abilities. In a manner of speaking, anyway, since divine abilities not exactly easy to use directly. All in all, she's a pretty unimpressive goddess.
* ThePigPen: She never bathes, so apparently, she smells quite badly and in universe looks unattractive entirely because she of the accumulated filth.
* PluckyGirl: Nothing's going to deter her from her mission of extracting Ichiko's fortune (and then some more), to the point where she outright disobeys Yamabuki, especially if her [[ReasonableAuthorityFigure nuanced advice]] runs counter to her [[ItsPersonal irrational, increasingly personal grudge against her]].
* PopCulturedBadass: The biggest example in the series. Momiji does a cosplay and/or a ShoutOut at least OncePerEpisode all while she's constantly fighting Ichiko to steal her fortune energy.
* PowerTattoo: Her right arm is riddled with curses, explaining why it is heavily wrapped in bandages. Anyone she touches with her cursed hand is jinxed beyond wit.
* RummageSaleReject: Her clothing is dirty and frayed, she wears a ragged 'misfortune' hat and doesn't even wear both shoes.
* SealedInsideAPersonShapedCan: [[spoiler: She contains Ikari's soul, and thus half his power.]]
* SheCleansUpNicely: Provided that she actually bothers to bathe, she turns out to be quite beautiful. The personality flip doesn't hurt either.
* ShipperOnDeck: She actively pushes Ichiko and Keita together and puts them in embarrassing situations for her own amusement. Although, Momiji admits to Keita she wholeheartedly wants him to become Ichiko's boyfriend so Ichiko has someone who will always be with her after Momiji leaves the human world.
* ShipperWithAnAgenda: In one of the early manga chapters, she tries to help a guy hook up with Ichiko so the latter gains a new weakness Momiji can take advantage of. The plan fails because the guy is a SerialRomeo who gives up on Ichiko [[NoGuyWantsAnAmazon after Ichiko rescues him from a fight]].
* ShooTheDog: [[spoiler:Goes to extreme lengths in alienating Ichiko, who does not want Momiji to sacrifice herself for the sake of defeating Ikari. Subverted, as it turns out she wanted Ichiko to help her.]]
* SignatureHeadgear: She always wears a hitaikakushi with the kanji for "Misfortune" written on it. The first time Keita points it out as something weird, Momiji goes into shock over someone finally noticing it.
* TheSlacker: Her boss often finds her fooling around instead of doing her job to take away Ichiko's fortune energy seriously.
* {{Sloth}}: Everything is just too much effort. Why bother? She actually starts weirding out her colleagues when she starts ''dropping'' this attitude.
* SoProudOfYou: In her final conversation with Ichiko, Momiji expresses how proud she is of Ichiko's CharacterDevelopment into a better, happier person, calling the current Ichiko her pride and proof of her existence.
* SplitAtBirth: [[spoiler:Momiji is in fact the other half of Ikari's soul that was extracted by Ichou centuries ago.]]
* SupernaturalGoldEyes: A deity with golden eyes.
* SupremeChef: She's actually very good at cooking. She challenges Ichiko to a cooking contest, but Ichiko's good fortune and cooking skills team up in order to... poison the judge, invalidating the contest. Woops.
* ThanatosGambit: [[spoiler:Allows Ikari to kill her so that she could rescue the fallen gods in Yomi, the land of the dead, and bring them in as reinforcements.]]
* ThouShaltNotKill: Even if she occasionally takes drastic measures in extracting Ichiko's fortune, Momiji won't ever resort to murder nor let someone die on her watch.
* TransferStudentUniforms: After transferring to Ichiko's class, she wears a different school uniform from the other students. Ichiko questions why no one else thinks it's weird.
* TricksterMentor: As Momiji becomes more sympathetic to Ichiko, she starts acting more and more like this. Her schemes tend to revolve around getting Ichiko to connect with others so that she's not as lonely and has people she cares about. Eventually this leads to Ichiko expending fortune energy on their behalf to save them from the side effects of her ability. Eventually Ichiko accepts a pendant through a ZanyScheme that will nullify her power to steal the good fortune of other people.
* UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: She's lazy, rude, vulgar, fond of teasing and rather indifferent to people's struggles, but unlike Ichiko she's basically the opposite of good luck and is much more likely to pay for it.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: In Episode 2, Yamabuki warns her that her prolonged stay at Butsume City could, like Ichiko, adversely affect the balance of the city's positive and negative energies.
* VoiceChangeling: She tricked Ichiko by perfectly imitating Ranmaru's voice once.
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Can transform into either an [[IntangibleMan intangible]] WaddlingHead or a [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever large]] UndeathlyPallor form.
* WeaksauceWeakness: If you clean a misfortune god that has come to the human world, it will warp their personality. Well, that's not so bad. Turns Momiji into an extroverted NiceGirl. However, it also causes them to lose all their powers. [[spoiler:Without those powers, they'll simply turn into a human and, after a week, be unable to return to normal. They could thus be considered dead.]]
* WeWantOurJerkBack: Played with. Being washed turns her super nice and rids her of her divine powers and Ichiko is initially uncomfortable with the new nice Momiji. Even after she realizes that it's not an act she still feels that something is missing. However, she does grow to like her [[spoiler:before it turns out that the Momiji she knows will actually die without her divine powers.]] Turns out she really does like her better when they're always fighting.
* WhatTheHellHero: She's pretty pissed when she sees Ichiko passively allowing others to help her instead of trying to escape or fight back on her own.

!Human World

[[folder:Keita Tsuwabuki]]
[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tsuwabuki_keita.jpg]]

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KoukiUchiyama (Japanese), Creator/CliffordChapin (English)

Ichiko's next-seat classmate and a heavy sleeper, owing to taking on multiple part-time jobs in order to raise his four younger siblings ever since their parents abandoned them to a staggering debt.
----
* AccidentalPervert:
** He sees Ichiko naked after the bathhouse's dividing wall is destroyed by Ranmaru. Ichiko brings that up a couple of times.
** In the battle against Tanpopo, he tries to catch Ichiko in the middle of a freefall. He ends up unintentionally [[MarshmallowHell shoving his face between her breasts]].
* AmazonChaser: He thinks Ichiko looked awesome when fighting against Tanpopo. This is the first time he shows attraction to her.
* AmnesiacLover: [[spoiler:At the start of the final arc, Ikari erases Ichiko from Keita's memory out of jealousy of their budding romance. As soon as he forces himself to remember, Keita confesses his love for Ichiko and they become a couple.]]
* AsleepInClass: His multiple jobs leave him exhausted, so he often falls asleep in class.
* BadassLongcoat:
** By putting on a magical MartialArtsHeadband, Keita gets a SuperMode that has him wearing a white gakuran uniform with a long coat.
** At the climax of the final arc, he also wears a cool long black coat.
* BatmanGambit: [[spoiler:He ''thanks'' Tanpopo, the same goddess who nearly killed his toddler brother, for helping him and his siblings remember the importance of family. This [[EvilCannotComprehendGood confused Tanpopo long enough]] for Momiji to pull off a BigDamnHeroes.]]
* BattleCouple: He and Ichiko fight Ikari together in the FinalBattle and professing their feelings for each other boosts their physical strength thanks to the Misfortune God Item they're using.
* BigBrotherInstinct: His defining character trait. He overworks himself to the point of exhaustion in order to take care of his four younger siblings and he's very protective of them.
* {{Bishonen}}: He has a very good-looking face that makes girls instantly fall for him.
* CaptainObvious: He has to be one at one point. Thirty some chapters into the manga he finally puts out that Momiji has a stupid 'Misfortune' headband on. Not one other person has commented on it the entire time Momiji has been here. His amazing and unparalleled deductive prowess then cues him into the idea that Tanpopo with her big stupid 'Fortune' headband is probably related to her somehow.
* ChekhovsSkill: His earlier mentioned skill for soccer makes him very useful in the fight against Tanpopo to save Ichiko thanks to Bobby's superhuman-granting abilities beads and Keita's spectacular aiming.
* CluelessChickMagnet: Thanks to Nadeshiko chasing all girls up until Ichiko and Ranmaru away from him, he's never really gotten used to interacting with girls on an intimate level and can be pretty dense.
* TheComicallySerious: Tends to [[NotSoAboveItAll join in on the gang's antics]] with while keeping a straight face, such as imitating Ichiko and Momiji's [[Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar Kenshiro-face]] and, of all things, ''selling beer'' on the school gymnasium during the Ichiko-Ranmaru duel.
-->'''Classmate A:''' "[[LampshadeHanging Won't you get in trouble selling beer in school?]]"
-->'''Classmate B:''' "Let it slide. [[RefugeInAudacity Even the teachers are buying.]]"
* EmotionalPowers: The MartialArtsHeadband he gets from Momiji increases his physical capacities depending on his emotional state. When he's happy or motivated, he gets SuperSpeed and SuperToughness. The downside is that if he's upset or shocked, his amplified emotional reactions will knock him down.
* EvenTheGuysWantHim: While Sekienmaru has always admired Keita as a man, he does seem to drool just as much as Rika when they recalled the latter man dressing as a butler for the Autumn School Festival.
* FamilyMan: He's completely dedicated to maintaining his four younger siblings after their parents abandoned them.
* FloralThemeNaming: In Japanese language, Tsuwabuki is the name of the leopard plant.
* IKnowMaddenKombat: His soccer skills are surprisingly handy in combat.
* InconsistentColoring: Early colored illustrations depicted Keita with orange-blonde hair, but it was changed to yellow with a green tint later on.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: [[spoiler:His memories of Ichiko are erased by Ikari at one point. Keita manages to overcome it soon afterwards.]]
* LastNameBasis: Everyone calls him by his last name. In the final battle against Ikari, he and Ichiko agree to start using FirstNameBasis for each other [[spoiler:because they are now a couple]].
* MartialArtsHeadband: Momiji gives him one that is a Misfortune God Item that amplifies the wearer's brain tissue's neurotransmitters and gives Keita more power and speed according to how motivated he is.
* MySisterIsOffLimits: He goes into a rage when he hears rumors that Rika got a boyfriend.
* NeatFreak: His reaction to seeing Ichiko's garbage dump of an apartment is demanding her to let him clean it.
* NiceGuy: He's caring, responsible and hardworking.
* NotSoAboveItAll: He'd occasionally join in on the gang's antics. [[TheComicallySerious All the while keeping a straight face.]]
* ObliviousToLove: He's so busy raising his siblings he fails to notice Ichiko, Ranmaru and Nadeshiko's affection for him.
* OnlySaneMan: His depressingly down-to-earth character/story arc seems more fitting for a drama than a zany GagSeries.
* NoShirtLongJacket: His SuperMode [[spoiler:after he's temporarily transformed into a god]] in the final volume has him shirtless, but wearing an open BadassLongcoat.
* PromotionToParent: His parents abandoned his family with a huge debt in order to "search for Atlantis." With no source of income, Keita works constantly at part-time jobs while going to school in order to support his younger siblings.
* ProperlyParanoid: When Tanpopo arrives and uses the Scream Owl to bring him immediate good fortune, he's uneasy because it's too much fortune at once. He's exactly right and if Ichiko had been paying attention she'd have realized that his concerns were dead on: In this series, fortune and misfortune ''are'' balanced and that's exactly how the Scream Owl works. [[spoiler:The resulting misfortune nearly kills Sorata and ruins his family until they go back to being poor.]]
* SatelliteLoveInterest: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. Keita is well-characterized and memorable on his own thanks to his hard-working personality, BigBrotherInstinct, and NotSoAboveItAll moments. It's just that his role in the story is primarily centered around being Ichiko's love interest.
* SeriousBusiness: Earning money for his siblings. Where there's an opportunity, he'd be there vending stuff.
* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: When he reluctantly visits Suwano alongside Ichiko with only Sorata as company, Keita has to make himself clear that he and Ichiko are not in a relationship to avoid the wrath of Suwano and many other local young males.
* TheStoic: He bears life's misery with a brave dignity, and this is how he (unconsciously) makes girls fall for him.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: He's a nice and caring guy, but he's also cool-headed and focused on working for the sake of his younger siblings most of the time.
* TripleShifter: While he's still a high school student, he works multiple part-time jobs to support himself and his four younger siblings because their parents abandoned them. He spends most of his time in class sleeping since he has no real chance to take a break outside school hours.
* UnresolvedSexualTension: He and Ichiko are frequently blushing around each other or being forced into compromising situations by Momiji, like taking a bath together. Neither of them gathers the courage to act on their feelings until near the end of the series.
* UnwantedHarem: Ichiko, Ranmaru, and Nadeshiko all want him.
* WistfulAmnesia: [[spoiler:At the beginning of the final arc, Ikari erases Ichiko from Keita's memories. It doesn't take long before Keita notices something very important is missing from his memories, especially when a lot of it doesn't make sense without Ichiko.]]
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Kikunoshin Suwano]]
[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/suwano_kikunoshin.jpg]]

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/HiroshiNaka (Japanese), Creator/KentWilliams (English)

Ichiko's long-time butler, who raised her for most, if not all, of her childhood.
----
* BattleButler: Flashbacks imply that he used to be a combat-capable man, by way of teaching some of his skills to Ichiko. Later, in one of his letters to Ichiko, he says that he, at his wife's suggestion, has also taken up martial arts.
* DecemberDecemberRomance: He meets his second wife Sumire immediately after Ichiko forces him to retire and they make a happy elderly couple.
* DirtyOldMan: He shows shades of this, such as commenting on Momiji's [[CosplayOtakuGirl cosplay tendencies]] and Ichiko's breasts.
* FourthDateMarriage: After Ichiko fires him so he can retire, Suwano found himself a new wife in less than a week afterwards.
* HappilyMarried: After retiring, he gets married to a woman named Sumire, who loves him dearly.
* HiredHelpAsFamily: He worked as Ichiko's butler since she was a baby, but both think of each other as father and daughter. Since Ichiko hasn't really seen her parents since childhood, Suwano is more of a parent to her than her biological parents.
* LoveAtFirstPunch: He first met his second wife during a sparring session for martial arts and they married a few days later.
* MoralityPet: Seeing how much Ichiko cares about Suwano is the first thing which convinces Momiji and Momo'o that Ichiko is not a bad person deep down.
* OverprotectiveDad: A surrogate example. When asked what he would do if Ichiko got a boyfriend, he calmly replies "Kill him". The time Ichiko goes to visit him with Keita, Suwano immediately treats the guy like his worst enemy, ''especially'' after Ichiko mentions the AccidentalPervert incidents that happened between them.
* ParentalSubstitute: Since Ichiko's parents have been absent for almost her entire life, Suwano was responsible for raising her pretty much on his own.
* PutOnABus: As early as the first episode/chapter alone, Ichiko "fires" him (in order to keep him from losing more positive energy any more than he already did, while using his "incompetence" of late and a heart attack as a legitimate pretext), then encourages him to take a well-deserved rest at the countryside, although on occasion he'd still write to his former mistress.
* WalkingTheEarth: He travels the world with his new wife, as his postcards to Ichiko indicate, then settles down in the countryside.
* WhatTheHellHero: When Ichiko visits him, she can only bring Keita along since everyone else is busy. Suwano picks a fight with him and nearly ruins the trip altogether, nearly causing an upset Ichiko to leave until he apologizes properly and cools down.

[[folder:Ranmaru Rindou]]
[[quoteright:230:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rindou_ranmaru.jpg]]

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/HarukaTomatsu (Japanese), Creator/MarthaHarms (English)

A pink-haired girl, with masculine delinquent look and tendencies. After a brief animosity involving Ichiko exploiting her looks to help herself escape from being accused of petty theft, she becomes Ichiko's best friend.
----
* ActionGirl: She's a martial artist with CharlesAtlasSuperpower.
* AlliterativeName: '''R'''anmaru '''R'''indou.
* BadassAdorable: Strong, hardass... and a total mess when it comes to romance or girly things.
* BadassLongcoat: She wears a blue longcoat as part of her delinquent attire.
* BadassNormal: Ranmaru is a normal person without high fortune or misfortune energy, yet she can fight supernatural beings like the Tsukumogami Suzuhikohime on her own and win.
* BareYourMidriff: Her usual outfit has an open coat and a {{sarashi}} to cover her breasts, leaving her midriff exposed.
* BashSiblings: She teams up with Momo'o during their fights in the final battle.
* BastardGirlfriend: {{Invoked|Trope}}. The extreme masochist Momo'o finds her hot because her punches and kicks cause him so much pain. Although Ranmaru isn't into Momo's S&M fetish, she abuses him to bring out his CanisMajor form in battle.
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe:
** She decides to befriend Ichiko after the latter stands up against Ranmaru's father for forcing his daughter to be like a boy without ever taking her feelings into account.
** She develops a crush on Keita when he helps her get up after losing her match against Ichiko.
* BerserkButton: Being raised on traditional values, nothing enrages Ranmaru more than liars, oath-breakers and backstabbing "friends".
* BestHerToBedHer: In the final chapter, Ranmaru has the guys of her high school challenging her to a fight every day because she won't date a man who can't beat her.
* BornInTheWrongCentury: Exactly the opinion Ichiko initially gave of her.
* BoyishShortHair: A butch martial artist with short hair.
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: The TrainingFromHell her father put her through from a young age is apparently enough to give her superhuman strength and stamina that lets her support a collapsing building on her own for several minutes and survive crashing into concrete after being thrown off from Ichiko's penthouse apartment.
* ClingyJealousGirl: When Momo'o goes into his {{Sadist}} "Heat Mode" on Natsume, Ranmaru steps on his face and threatens that if he ever plays BDSM games with any other girl, she won't ever punish him again.
* ClosetKey: Akane realizes she's a lesbian after falling hard for Ranmaru.
* CombatPragmatist: In her fight against Suzuhikohime, Ranmaru puts on a FrenchMaidOutfit in order to distract her perverted opponent enough to give her the MegatonPunch that finishes her off.
* CommissarCap: She wears a blue soldier cap to add up to her old-fashioned delinquent outfit.
* ContraltoOfDanger: Creator/HarukaTomatsu gives Ranmaru a deep voice to fit her hardass delinquent character.
* CryCute: Even a hardass chick like her needs to vent out her frustrations every now and then, and it happens in two occasions -- after [[spoiler:reeling in horror over how she apparently broke her vow of loyalty to Ichiko while under Shaga's influence]], and [[spoiler:at the ending, when she admits to Ichiko that she will miss Momo'o]].
* DaddysGirl: The only reason she still sticks around with her father even after everything he had her do is because he is her only parent left.
* {{Dismotivation}}: After Ichiko confronts her AbusiveDad, he gives Ranmaru permission to dress and act like a woman. In the end, though, she realizes that she's grown comfortable with her butch delinquent getup and chooses to stay the same. The epilogue of the manga does show her wearing the girls' uniform, so she does eventually become more obviously feminine.
* DoesNotLikeShoes: A variation-- she's only comfortable in bare getas, and squirms when forced to don socks and shoes, falling over in them and claiming it's easier to walk in her sandals and only putting up with them because Ichiko had forcefully taken her geta away (which are very masculine) and made her wear more feminine footwear when buying new duds at a boutique. Even at school, Ranmaru is clad in her geta instead of UsefulNotes/InsideShoes. She also often kicks them off before she's about to kick ass, and has a tendency to catch knives with her ''bare feet''. In fact, Ranmaru would rather just ditch the geta and be barefoot in general, as it's how she's used to sparring and she likes having [[HandyFeet free use of her toes.]]
* DreadfulMusician: Ranmaru's singing is so terrible that it makes Momiji's ears bleed.
* DudeMagnet: In the epilogue, Ranmaru is now super popular with the guys at her high school and gets love confessions regularly.
* EatingTheEyeCandy: She ogles at Keita's naked chest while admiring his muscles in the PublicBathhouseScene.
* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: She becomes just as popular with the female students as Ichiko is with the male population.
* {{Expy}}: A ''somewhat'' less extreme version of Ryuunosuke from ''Manga/UruseiYatsura'', another karate girl whose life and world view were influenced by a masculine upbringing from a single father, right down to her use of "ore" when referring to herself. On the other hand, her clothes are more of a reference to [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders Jotaro Kujo]].
* FireForgedFriends: How her relationship with Ichiko developed. After a rough start, Ichiko helped Ranmaru get in touch with her feminine side. Ranmaru in turn helped Ichiko learn to trust people again. This exchange of acts of kindness helped make them best friends.
* FirstFriend: She's the first person Ichiko can call a true friend; before Ranmaru, Ichiko only had a FalseFriend who stole her elementary crush away.
* FloralThemeNaming: Rindou is a type of gentian flower in Asia. It symbolizes justice and lonely affection, which is represented by Ranmaru's righteous personality and her befriending the lonely Ichiko.
* {{Foil}}: Ranmaru is this to Ichiko; all the girls in the class love her while all the guys are either intimidated by her or aggressive because they think she bullies Ichiko.
* GirlinessUpgrade: At the end of the manga, Ranmaru switches her old-fashioned gakuran for a female school uniform.
* GirlyBruiser: In the epilogue, Ranmaru is now much more feminine and wears the girls' school uniform. She's still the same badass karate fighter, as seen when she beats the guys who want to date her every morning.
* HeirToTheDojo: At least, whatever is left of the family dojo after it shuts down for financial reasons.
* HonorThyAbuser: Ranmaru's father was extremely harsh with her, putting her through TrainingFromHell daily and denying her the freedom to act like her gender because he wanted a manly heir for his dojo. When Ichiko and Momiji doll Ranmaru up, her father is so furious that he beats her up and rips her girly clothes in front of her. Ichiko is so outraged by this that she fights Ranmaru's father to get back at him for how badly he has treated his daughter. However, Ranmaru stops Ichiko and defends her father because no matter the way he is, he's her only family and she loves him.
* HopelessSuitor: Near the end of the manga, Ranmaru is fully aware that she won't get Keita, but she thinks losing him to Ichiko isn't bad.
* HotBlooded: She's one of the most passionate characters around.
* ImpliedLoveInterest: Momo'o seems attracted to her, although that's mostly because he would [[TooKinkyToTorture love being beaten up by her]]. Ranmaru and Momo'o become good friends who train and fight together in the last parts of the manga, but no romance is made official because Momo'o needs to leave the human world with Momiji at the end.
* ItWasAGift: In the epilogue, Momo'o apparently gives Ranmaru his scarf before he leaves forever. She's shown wearing the scarf as a hair ribbon the last time we see her.
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: She decides to give up on Keita seeing how close he and Ichiko has become.
* JapaneseDelinquent: She dresses like one and knows karate.
* LargeHam: She could as well be a dramatic martial arts manga protagonist.
* MadeOfIron: Can survive a thirteen-floor fall off Ichiko's flat with nothing more than a little blood on her face.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: She's absolutely horrified when [[spoiler:her bond to Ichiko returns]] and she remembers she hit Ichiko the last two met. She's actually reduced to tears since she promised she would never ever do anything like this to Ichiko.
* NewTransferStudent: She transfers into Ichiko's class.
* NiceGirl: There is not a ''single'' cruel, mean, selfish or dishonest bone in her body.
* ObliviousToLove: Akane confesses to her twice in bonus chapter 51.2, both times Ranmaru misunderstands.
* OralFixation: Almost always has a reed in her mouth.
* OreOnna: Notable for the ''complete'' absence of feminine pronouns, suffixes and idioms in her vocabulary, right down to using the agressive-masculine "ore" when referring to herself (as opposed to the gender-neutral "watashi" or innocent-feminine "atashi".)
* PowerMakesYourHairGrow: [[spoiler:After being made a god.]]
* RaisedAsTheOppositeGender: She was raised like a boy by her father in order to succeed his karate dojo. This is {{lampshaded}} at her very introduction.
* RoseHairedSweetie: She has bright pink hair and is a kindhearted, supportive and loyal friend.
* {{Sarashi}}: She wears one around her chest instead of a bra to complement her delinquent look.
* SheCleansUpNicely: If there's one thing Ichiko and Momiji can agree on, it's that Ranmaru looks ''smashing'' when all dolled up.
* SmittenTeenageGirl: She goes gaga over Keita whenever he's nearby. She once gets a {{nosebleed}} from Keita simply catching her in a BridalCarry.
* {{Stripperiffic}}: The outfit she gets along her power-up [[spoiler:when Ichiko and Momiji turn her into a god]] shows a lot of skin.
* TomboyAngst: Her father raised her as a boy so she could inherit his dojo one day and forbade her from dressing like the girl she is. When Ichiko and Momiji try to get Ranmaru to embrace her femininity by dolling her up, her father beats her and tears her girl's clothes in front of her. After Ichiko confronts him, Ranmaru's father finally lets her be free to be feminine if she wants to.
* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: She knows karate and her mannerisms and speech are overly masculine. She's also happy when she gets dolled up, acts like a typical SmittenTeenageGirl around her crush and loves cute little animals.
* TomboyishName: Ranmaru is a very masculine Japanese name. Makes sense since her father WantedASonInstead.
* TomboyishVoice: Ranmaru speaks with a very low, gruff voice that matches her masculine personality.
* TownGirls: The Butch. Ranmaru is a strong martial artist who was raised as a man, which creates a contrast with her girly {{Ojou}} friends Ichiko and Nadeshiko.
* WalkingSwimsuitScene: When [[spoiler:she temporarily turns into a god]], she gets a costume with a bikini top.
* WhenSheSmiles: So kind and gentle it really catches anyone off-guard.
* WhoWearsShortShorts: [[spoiler:After becoming a god, her outfit includes mini shorts.]]
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: She has pink hair.

A perverted American monk wandering the world to exterminate evil spirits or gods. He can sense Ichiko's positive energy.
----
* ADayInTheLimelight: Chapter 24 is centered on him helping a shrine god get her shrine back after it got stolen by another spirit.
* ButtMonkey: Almost all his scenes have him at the receiving end of PervertRevengeMode.
* BuxomIsBetter: Only interested in large busts. Even if you're otherwise perfectly attractive, he won't care about you.
* ChivalrousPervert: When Momiji turns nice, he refuses to try groping her. Sure, she has no breasts to grope anyway, but he admits that her aura is just too pure for him to do something like that.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: He's sufficiently spiritually-attuned to interact with deities and spirits despite being a self-titled "Corrupted Monk", but when forced to give up his perversions via a curse that keeps him from getting near women, he actually becomes powerful enough to curbstomp deities and even cure himself. [[ThanksForTheMammary One encounter with Ichiko's bosom]], however, [[StatusQuoIsGod is enough to make him return to his old ways]].
* DeusSexMachina: [[spoiler:After being smothered in [[MarshmallowHell Marshmallow Heaven]], he pulls a BigDamnHeroes and forces the Sarasarasa sisters to open a gate back to Busumetsu City.]]
* DirtyOldMonk: He's the show's biggest pervert despite his nature as a holy man, which actually does cut into his abilities. When he manages to put worldly desires behind him briefly, he gains immense power.
* EveryoneHasStandards: During the Ikari arc, [[spoiler:Tanpopo and Momo'o (he accurately presumes) are killed in front of him while he escapes by mere virtue of being a mortal.]] Without asking for anything in return, he's the only one besides Ichiko that accompanies Ichiko [[spoiler:to the misfortune god world]] and when asked simply points out that even he has standards.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: He often hangs out with Ichiko's group, but he's a major sex offender who sexually harasses the girls on regular basis. The only one who really likes him is his fellow pervert Momo'o.
* FunnyForeigner: He's an American in a Japanese cast and exists as the perverted comic relief who says GratuitousEnglish lines sometimes.
* HaremSeeker: His ultimate dream is becoming the king of his own country and get a RoyalHarem.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He usually refuses to help without some kind of bribe, but [[spoiler:after he fails to save some of his god friends]] he becomes (halfway) serious and tags along out of a sense of apparently genuine duty.
* LovableSexManiac: Played with. By WordOfGod, he's actually not that much of a pervert compared to a normal person, he's just incredibly immature.
* {{Manchild}}: Apparently, he approaches sexuality with the maturity of a middle school student rather than being particularly perverted.
* MommasBoy: He keeps quoting and believing in what his mother supposedly said, such as faking broken Japanese to elicit sympathy.
-->'''Ichiko:''' "I'm so gonna teach your Mama a lesson!"
* OddFriendship: With Momo'o. He's an exorcist Buddhist monk and Momo'o is a dog god, but since both are huge perverts, they become best buddies.
* TakingTheBullet: Leaps in front of an attack launched by Natsume [[spoiler:intended to kill Tanpopo. Unfortunately, her blade can't hurt humans passes through him harmlessly and hits Tanpopo anyway.]]
* TokenMinority: An African-American in a Japanese setting.
* UncleTomfoolery: He's the only black guy in the cast and pretty much his only role is being a pervert whose sexual harassment is PlayedForLaughs.

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SayakaKanda (Japanese), Creator/MichelleLee (English)

Another rich kid in Ichiko's class, she doesn't make a major influence into the story until much later, where it's revealed that she was a girl madly in love with Keita from the shadows... "mad" as in willing to ruin any potential competition.
----
* ACupAngst: She's utterly unpleased with her childlike body and wants to get a breast implant surgery, but her butler won't let her because [[ComedicLolicon he only likes girls who are small]]. Her only comfort is that she's not as flat-chested as Momiji at least.
* ArrangedMarriage: By her family's tradition, she's being forced to marry an unfaithful UpperClassTwit. Ichiko and Ranmaru manage to save her from being taken away by her fiancé.

* ChildhoodFriendRomance: By the end of the manga, Nadeshiko comes to reciprocate the feelings of her butler Shinobu who has been by her side since their childhood.
* ClingyJealousGirl: For years, she has been doing whatever she can to keep other girls away from Keita.
* CustomUniform: She wears her winter uniform while the other girls are in summer uniform. Apparently, she was supposed to make her debut in winter.
* CuteClumsyGirl: The author decided it would be boring for her to just be a normal {{Ojou}}, so he made her a clumsy stalker to go with it.
* DoppelgangerAttack:
** Hilariously {{subverted}}. Nadeshiko makes it ''look'' like she has a cloning technique in her ninja skillset, but her duplicates are really her many servants in disguise.
** Played straight in the second-to-last chapter. Nadeshiko becomes able to produce real clones of herself thanks to [[spoiler:being made into a god by Ichiko and Momiji]].
* EarlyBirdCameo: Both in the manga and anime, she makes several cameo appearances before her official debut. In the manga, this isn't pointed out until after her introduction. In the anime, she has a special segment at the end of each episode to signal her cameos.
* FloralThemeNaming: Nadeshiko is the Japanese name for the fringed pink flower. It symbolizes pure love and yearning, which manifests in her obsessive love for Keita.
* ForgottenFirstMeeting: By the time Nadeshiko gathers the courage to confess to Keita at her sixteenth birthday, she discovers that Keita has completely forgotten about their meeting when they were kids. Keita needed his sister's help to remember Nadeshiko.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: She becomes bitterly depressed and self-hating when after [[spoiler: finding out that Keita likes Ichiko, she has a passing thought that maybe it would be a good thing if Ichiko didn't return from rescuing Momiji.]]
* HighlyVisibleNinja: Do note that she actually sucks at being a ninja.
* HopelessSuitor: Despite all her efforts, Keita never showed even the slightest interest in her. She gets bummed out when it becomes more than obvious Ichiko already won Keita's heart and there is nothing she can do about that.
* HumanLadder: Her special attack Nadeshiko Fox Spirit Drop
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: [[spoiler:Played with. When she realizes that Keita is much more interested in Ichiko than her, she tries to withdraw quietly, but results are pretty mixed, much to her shame. Interestingly, it's slightly twisted from the usual presentation: it's more about wanting Ichiko to be happy.]]
* LargeHam: As to be expected from an {{Ojou}}, the way she acts is always larger-than-life.
* LongLostRelative: Turns out she has a little sister named Ruri, whom she hadn't known about until the series' finale.
* LustObject: She's on the receiving end of her butler Shinobu's ComedicLolicon antics, to her dismay.
* MaybeEverAfter: The closing chapters of the manga show Nadeshiko is warming up to her loyal butler Shinobu, which may help her get over Keita hooking up with Ichiko. She still gets pissed when Shinobu acts like a creep around her long-lost little sister, though.
* {{Ninja}}: She self-taught herself ninja skills to make her stalking easier.
* NoblewomansLaugh: During her first real appearance, the other characters quickly and accurately guessed that she'll launch into an annoying laugh at any minute.
* {{Ojou}}: Nadeshiko is the daughter of a very wealthy family and lives in a BigFancyHouse that looks like a castle.
* OjouRinglets: She wears her hair in four large ringlets in front and behind her shoulders just so you know she's an {{Ojou}} at first glance.
* OlderThanSheLooks: She's sixteen like her classmates, but her short stature, flat chest and the way she dresses make her look like a preteen.
* OutdoorsyGal: Nadeshiko liked to climb trees when she was a child and was agile enough to jump from branch to branch.
* ProperTightsWithASkirt: She wears white tights under her dress.
* RejectedMarriageProposal: At her 16th birthday party, Nadeshiko proposes marriage to Keita. He immediately says no because she's a complete stranger to him since she only stalked him in secret for years. Turns out Nadeshiko did this in a desperate attempt to escape an ArrangedMarriage.
* RescueRomance: Keita saved her when she was falling from a tree. Ever since then, Nadeshiko has thought of him as her prince and obsessively stalks him.
* SheIsAllGrownUp: Thanks to Tama accidentally misusing an item she borrowed from Momiji, there's a brief panel of Nadeshiko as she'll look in some years. Her figure is about on par with ''Ichiko's'' of all people. Seems she really is just a late bloomer.
* ShipperWithAnAgenda: She approves of Akane's crush on Ranmaru because Akane could help her keep Ranmaru away from Keita.
* SignatureHeadgear: The two pink hairclips shaped like bunnies that she wears on both sides of her head.
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: She has been obsessively in love with Keita for years because she envisioned him as a PrinceCharming who saved her when she fell from a tree. Later on, she starts to reciprocate the feelings of her butler Shinobu after she realizes he's more than a lolicon stalker and he proves that he's genuinely loyal to her to the point he would readily risk his life to protect her.
* StalkerShrine: The walls of her bedroom are decorated with pictures of Keita she secretly took through the years she stalked him.
* StalkerWithACrush: She's been spying on Keita for years and has driven away all his female admirers without him ever realizing it.
* StalkingIsFunnyIfItIsFemaleAfterMale: She has been stalking her crush Keita for years, which motivated her to train herself in ninjutsu. This is the main element of her comedy.
* TaughtByExperience: She developed her ninja skills through the years she spent coming up with methods to stalk Keita and drive other girls away from him.
* TokenMiniMoe: She's the butt of a lot of jokes for looking so young. Her normal clothing tries to deemphasize it, but that only gets you so far.
* TownGirls: The Femme. Leaving aside the {{Ninja}} StalkerWithACrush gimmick, Nadeshiko is much more well-mannered, stylish and proper than Ichiko and Ranmaru.
* TrouserSpace: She can bring out all kinds of ninja weapons from up her skirt.
* {{Tsundere}}: Towards Shinobu. She's immensely annoyed by his perverted stalker antics and lets him know this with violence. When she fires him and then learns just how much he does to protect her, she gets a LuminescentBlush and calls him an idiot before rehiring him as her butler. By the end of the series, she has begun to reciprocate his feelings, not that it stops her from hitting him when he's being a lolicon pervert.
* UptownGirl:
** Nadeshiko is the daughter of a big conglomerate and lives in a literal castle. Meanwhile, the guy she loves is dirt-poor, lives in a small run-down apartment with his four siblings and must take several part-time jobs to support them.
** Her butler is also obsessively in love with her. Towards the end of the manga, it looks like Nadeshiko might reciprocate his feelings.
* WhyCantIHateYou: She feels disgusted at herself when she briefly wishes Ichiko doesn't return from her mission of rescuing Momiji, since she doesn't want to see Keita get together with Ichiko.
* {{Yandere}}: For Keita, she's willing to ruin her "competition's" lives or bribe them. She gets better though.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: She has red-violet hair.

[[folder:Shinobu Daimon]]
[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/daimon_shinobu.jpg]]

Nadeshiko's loyal butler since their childhood.
----
* AbhorrentAdmirer: Shinobu is good-looking, but he's also a lecherous lolicon who obsesses over Nadeshiko's childlike looks. Nadeshiko never abstains from beating him up for being so annoying.
* BadassLongcoat: His butler uniform includes a long coat and he's a competent ninja butler.
* BattleButler: He serves as Nadeshiko's butler and like her, he knows some ninja tricks. It's also revealed that Shinobu has taken down any assassin that has come after Nadeshiko's life for years.
* BattleCouple: He aids Nadeshiko in the FinalBattle and eagerly accepts her request to [[WackyMarriageProposal serve her for the rest of her life]].
* BodyguardCrush: His duty is to protect Nadeshiko as her butler and bodyguard. Since he has the major hots for her, Shinobu uses this as an excuse to stalk her.
* BuxomIsBetter: {{Inverted|Trope}}. Shinobu is only attracted to flat-chested girls and calls breasts "unnecessary spheres of accumulated fat". Seeing Nadeshiko turn into a well-endowed adult woman nearly kills Shinobu from a heart attack.
* ChildhoodFriendRomance: He has been working for Nadeshiko since they were children and he's madly in love with her, although the feeling isn't mutual. By the final chapters of the manga, Nadeshiko accepts his love.
* ChivalrousPervert: For all his lecherousness and pedophilia, he's decent enough to not place cameras to spy on Nadeshiko in the bathroom and the only time he sneaks into her taking a bath is to protect Nadeshiko from an assassination attempt.
* ComedicLolicon: He adores Nadeshiko so much because she's small and flat-chested. Keita keeps him away from his little sisters because Shinobu lusts after any preteen girl. [[spoiler:When Nadeshiko's never-before-seen little sister appears, and she's even younger and flatter than her, Shinobu goes over the moon.]]
* CoveredWithScars: He has scars all over his body that he got from secretly protecting Nadeshiko from assassins for years.
* CrazyJealousGuy: He usually tolerates Nadeshiko's obsession with Keita because her feelings are obviously one-sided. The moment he thinks he sees Keita (actually Ungaikyou in disguise) hugging Nadeshiko, Shinobu tries to kill him.
* DevotedToYou: While he's a lolicon StalkerWithACrush, Shinobu is utterly devoted to Nadeshiko.
* DrillSergeantNasty: During the autumn school festival, he briefly becomes this for Ichiko's class to help all the boys become proper butlers for their class exhibit. Said help involves nightmarish levels of training and repetition.
* FunnyAfro: He has an afro and he's a lolicon with an over-the-top personality like everyone else in this series.
* HandsomeLech: He's fairly attractive, putting his pedophilia aside that is.
* HiddenDepths: For the most part, he's just a ComedicLolicon and Nadeshiko's annoying StalkerWithACrush who doesn't seem qualified to be a butler at all. In his DayInTheLimelight, however, he proves himself to be a very competent butler and he has constantly put his life on the line to protect Nadeshiko from assassins without him letting her know so she doesn't get scared. By finding out about this, Nadeshiko acknowledges Shinobu's UndyingLoyalty to her even though she still thinks he's a perverted idiot.
* HumanPackMule: Nadeshiko makes him carry her bags when they go shopping together.
* {{Invisibility}}: His butler outfit has a special camouflage feature that makes him invisible. He uses this to "protect" (i.e. stalk) Nadeshiko at all times of her day without her realizing it.
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: While he has spent years fighting against assassins going after Nadeshiko's life, Shinobu doesn't want to let Nadeshiko know about it because he prefers to be seen as nothing but a perverted stalker before letting Nadeshiko live constantly fearing for her own life.
* LegacyOfService: He comes from a family of butlers that has served the Adenokouji family for generations.
* LovableSexManiac: He's rather open about his lust for Nadeshiko, which is apparently mostly tolerated because she genuinely trusts him.
* LovingDetails: He keeps a memo pad where he wrote down all of Nadeshiko's personal details, including her height, weight, measurements, and the color of her panties.
* MaybeEverAfter: The ending of the manga implies Shinobu may have a chance to make Nadeshiko fall for him, but he needs to stop being a lolicon creep first.
* PowerDyesYourHair: Nadeshiko gives him a PowerUp by putting on a SchoolSwimsuit and kissing him on the cheek. In addition, Shinobu's dark hair turns light-colored.
* SatelliteLoveInterest: His devotion to Nadeshiko is his only notable character trait aside from being a lolicon and even that still ties back to his obsession with Nadeshiko.
* StalkerWithACrush: He stalks Nadeshiko as much as the latter stalks Keita, if not worse. He keeps cameras at every corner of the mansion to spy on Nadeshiko, although he did have the decency of not placing any in the bathroom (or so he claims).
* SubordinateExcuse: He adores Nadeshiko regardless of her being his master or not.
* UndyingLoyalty: He's a lolicon stalker, but his loyalty to Nadeshiko is the real deal.

* ClingyJealousGirl: Rika is not fond of her brother being so popular with girls.
* GyaruGirl: Rika becomes one for a short time after Tanpopo causes the siblings to become rich.

Rika goes back to normal after the family goes back to being poor.
* TheLoad: In a bonus chapter, Rika teams up with Ichiko, Ranmaru and Nadeshiko for a swimming competition to get some prize money to share with her family. She doesn't have Ichiko or even Ranmaru's figure, she's doesn't have superhuman athletic ability and she's not as smart as Ichiko, meaning she ends up feeling useless by the end. There's a special bonus round where she faces off against Momiji for the prize money after her teammates do all the work and it's the one thing she's better at than them: Cooking. [[YankTheDogsChain She still loses]] because Momiji is simply fantastic at cooking.

A kitten who Momiji arranges to have taken in by Ichiko. After being given a large amount of her owner's fortune energy, Tama gains godly powers.

* CatSmile: Her CatGirl form has a cute catlike smile.
* CuteKitten: Her original form is an adorable small white kitty.

* WhiteGloves: Her CatGirl form wears white gloves and looks more cartoony than the other characters of the series.

A girl from Ichiko's class who hates her for being so popular with the guys.
----
* AlphaBitch: In her first appearances, Akane is a mean girl who hangs out with her two friends while badmouthing Ichiko behind her back. At one point, she goes as far as to try to have Ichiko raped out of spite.
* EasilyForgiven: Early in the series, Akane set Ichiko up to be kidnapped and nearly raped by some guys. When the incident is brought up again much later on, Ichiko isn't even angry about it since she was saved by Ranmaru who then became her friend, which she thinks made the AttemptedRape worth it.
* FloralThemeNaming: Akane is the Japanese word for a madder plant.

Ichiko's close friend in primary school.
----
* BitchInSheepsClothing: She was the first girl to act even a little friendly to Ichiko, seemingly being the one nice girl in the class. However, she just wanted to get close to her to manipulate and badmouth her.
* ADayInTheLimelight: The second light novel catches up on her when she's in high school, and she has her very own god-related misadventures with [[spoiler:Ikari]] that help her explore how cruel she was back then.
* DevilInPlainSight: Somehow her childhood crush ''never'' noticed her spiteful facial expressions when she badmouthed Ichiko ''right in front of him''.
* FalseFriend: When seeing the talented and quiet but popular Ichiko, all the girls instantly hated her. Kurumi took it one step further by pretending to be her friend just to screw her over.
* FloralThemeNaming: Kurumi is the Japanese word for walnut. It represents knowledge, ambition and strategy, reflects perfectly on her BitchInSheepsClothing character.
* GirlishPigtails: She tied some of her hair up into twin tails, but in her case, it isn't cute at all. She was extremely immature and bratty even for an elementary school student, but in a KidsAreCruel sense. When she's a teenager she trades them in for a pixie cut.
* GreenEyedMonster: She and Ichiko had a crush on the same boy, but he only paid attention to Ichiko. Kurumi was so jealous that she told him Ichiko gave away his White Day present because it was "cheap" (the truth was Kurumi had forced Ichiko to give her the present). The boy believed Kurumi's lies and she took the chance to steal him away.
* HateSink: She's despicable in every sense of the word. Kurumi approached the LonelyRichKid Ichiko and claimed to be her friend. In reality, Kurumi was a BitchInSheepsClothing who was jealous of Ichiko getting all the boys' attention like everyone else. Just to make her even more hateful, she lied about Ichiko being an AlphaBitch in front of their mutual crush so she could steal him away. After seeing what Kurumi did to Ichiko, Ranmaru could only think of how much she wanted to give that little bitch a good beating.
* KidsAreCruel: For an elementary schooler, she sure was spiteful and malicious.
* ManipulativeBitch: She exploited Ichiko's loneliness by posing as her friend and threatening to stop talking to her if she didn't give Kurumi what she wanted. Jealous that their crush liked Ichiko better, Kurumi lied to him about Ichiko being an AlphaBitch who gave away his White Day gift when Kurumi had actually forced Ichiko to give it to her.
* PuppyLove: She and Ichiko had a crush on the same boy in their elementary school. Knowing he liked Ichiko better, Kurumi tricked him into dating her by telling him Ichiko didn't care about him.
* RegretfulTraitor: Come her teenage years, and she really does feel bad about how she betrayed Ichiko out of petty jealousy. Her chapter in the second light novel ends with Kurumi reaching out to Ichiko in order to properly apologize.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: She only appears in a flashback, but her betrayal directly caused Ichiko's current bitchy attitude and reluctance to make friends.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: She has violet hair.

----
* DisappearedDad: Ichiko hasn't seen him since she was a child, which is why she deeply resents him.
* FamilyMan: His greatest dream is spending the quality time with his wife and daughter that was denied to him because his music career got in the way.
* ParentsAsPeople: Shortly after Ichiko was born, her fortune energy took effect on her parents and Kazuma became the vocalist of a famous American band before he knew it. The band is always touring overseas and they rarely let Kazuma return to his family in Japan, so he barely had any time for Ichiko for the last sixteen years (as in since ''infancy''). And that includes her ''birthdays''. He does love Ichiko very much and laments missing out time with her for most of her life. Eventually, he tries to make it up to Ichiko by asking her to move to America with him, but this only makes Ichiko even angrier at him for being so inconsiderate to her feelings like always. At the end of Kazuma's arc, Ichiko acknowledges his love for her is genuine despite his big flaws.
* RagsToRiches: He was an aspiring musician barely making money by singing on the street and the company of his wife's family had gone bankrupt. Shortly after Ichiko was born, he became the vocalist of an incredibly famous rock band and his wife could restore the fortune of her family. Within a year, they went from living in a rundown apartment to a big mansion with many servants.
* WellDoneDadGuy: What he wants the most is to get Ichiko to think he's a cool dad.
* WhenYouComingHomeDad: The massive success of his band kept him away from home for very long. While Kazuma does love his daughter, she resents him for essentially choosing his music career over her.

Momiji's stuffed bear and sidekick.
----
* {{Gonk}}: His eyes, nose, and lips aren't drawn cute at all, making look pretty ugly for a teddy bear.
* {{Hammerspace}}: His torn-open belly serves as storage for Momiji's giant hypodermic needle.
* HotInHumanForm: He can transfer his soul into a doll to take a quite handsome human form. Ichiko and Tama get flustered when they first see him in that form, ''especially'' because he appeared naked and Ichiko [[PleasePutSomeClothesOn yells him to put on some clothes]].
* HumanityEnsues: In the final arc, he spends a few chapters in a human form to help Ichiko rescue Momiji.
* LivingToys: He's a living stuffed bear.
* PoorCommunicationKills: If he had bothered to mention that [[spoiler:her survival was at stake]] Ichiko would have been much more willing to turn Momiji back to normal after losing her powers. Instead, he makes it sounds as though he's just being entirely selfish.
* SnarkyNonHumanSidekick: He never abstains from throwing snarky comments at Momiji when she's being silly or outmatched by Ichiko.
* TheSpeechless: He is usually speechless. He does become able to speak when he takes human form.
* TalkingWithSigns: Since he cannot talk, he often communicates by writing messages in a notebook.

* BewareTheNiceOnes: She is normally [[NiceGirl nice beyond reason]], but when you really push her, watch out.

* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: Her three friends and fellow boss gods compete with each other for her affection.

* GiantWoman: She's about as tall as a tower.
* HugeSchoolgirl: When Ichiko points out her size, she gets depressed. Mind you, this is when she's actually significantly smaller than usual since she left a lot of energy behind.
* LargeAndInCharge: Get enough energy and you become a god. After that, more energy causes you to grow in size gods gain more power as they age. Thus, the fact that she's so large as well as the chief god are not unrelated.
%%* LaughingMad: When she's pissed.
* NiceGirl: She's always very polite and understanding. The other chief gods simply adore her for it, even the god of death that supposedly hates basically everyone.

* TopGod: She's the head chief of the misfortune gods.
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Nobody in Class 1-A reacted to Yamabuki imitating Momiji during Chapter 9/Episode 6, despite the fact that she stands at least four times as tall as a normal human being. They all just thought Momiji was doing something weird again.

->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/HiroShimono (Japanese), Creator/ToddHaberkorn (English)

Masochistic dog-god and Momiji's accomplice in stealing Ichiko's fortune.
----
* AccidentalPervert: Nothing in his mind [[LovableSexManiac is totally wholesome]], but that one time when he transformed into a human while being bathed by a likewise naked Ichiko is completely out of his control.

* ButNowIMustGo: At the end of the story, he leaves the human world along with Momiji now that their mission is finally complete.

* CombatSadomasochist: ''Weaponized.'' During battle, Ranmaru stimulates Momo's extreme masochism by abusing him at the same time she's attacking their opponents in order to make Momo'o turn into a CanisMajor.
* DidntSeeThatComing: Being fed with nothing but [[UnreliableNarrator Momiji's one-sided "intel"]] about Ichiko being a complete {{Jerkass}} to everyone but Suwano, Momo'o didn't expect to witness firsthand the lengths with which Ichiko would go for the sake of her ParentalSubstitute, going so far as to [[PluckyGirl spend the night at a massive landfill searching for her box containing Suwano's letters after they were mistaken for garbage]].
* ImpliedLoveInterest: To Ranmaru. They get several scenes together in the last parts of the manga that imply they might like each other. In the end, there's no romance between them; Momo'o leaves because of his god duties, and Ranmaru goes on to fight potential suitors.
* LittleBitBeastly: His human form has droopy dog-like ears.

[[quoteright:263:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tanpopo_binbougami.jpg]]

A God of Fortune who comes to the human realm to, like Momiji, extract Ichiko's fortune.
----
* AmbiguouslyGay: Her relationship with Konjikihime heavily implies they're lesbians. Tanpopo even calls Konjikihime her wife in the extra yonkoma.
* ArcVillain: She acts as the main antagonist of her own arc where she targets Ichiko because of her Fortune energy and becomes a threat to all of Ichiko's friends.
* BadBadActing: She tries to play the role of a DamselInDistress for Keita to come in her aid. She's too stoic to make her act too convincing, though.
* BadSamaritan: She gives the Tsuwabuki siblings instant access to 10 years' worth of good fortune, which gives them their own mansion. However, they get the equivalent of 10 years of misfortune afterward and the little Sorata gets hit by a motorbike, potentially leaving him in a permanent coma. This was part of Tanpopo's plan to break Ichiko.
* BoxingBattler: She fights using a style very similar to boxing, with her cat {{hand puppet}}s being used as boxing gloves.
* BrokenBird: Tanpopo used to be a nice goddess who simply wanted to make people happy. Having low fortune energy, however, causes all her attempts to ultimately reverse their effects upon her targets. After way too many failures (and some where her benefactors ultimately blame her), she finally becomes resigned to her fate, losing all faith in humanity and all interest in anything but herself.
* CerebusRetcon: Her talking uniquely through hand puppets seems funny at first. Once we learn about her past, it's revealed Tanpopo started doing that after her bad experiences with humans made her so sick of trying to get along with people that she decided to never even speak directly to anyone again.
* ChildhoodFriends: She has known Konjikihime since they were children.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: She has a weird way of doing things.
* TheComicallySerious: During her comedic moments, she maintains her straight face while acting as silly as everyone else.
* CryCute: [[spoiler:Breaks down in tears as she struggles to come to terms with Ichiko and Momiji defying her expectations of human-deity relationships, and whether she can still change after all she's done.]]
* DCupDistress: She admits her large breasts get in the way and make her shoulders stiff.
* DarkActionGirl: She's cold, dangerous and capable of breaking people's bones without mercy.
* DeliberatelyDistressedDamsel: She lures Keita into a trap by pretending to be a defenseless girl who is being harassed by some thugs (who were actually her helpers).
* DiedInYourArmsTonight: [[spoiler:She's fatally wounded by Natsume and disappears in Bobby's arms.]]
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: She ultimately suffers a huge emotional conflict between her belief that humans and deities can never get along together and the fact that Ichiko and Momiji are [[VitriolicBestBuds far friendlier to each other than they'd ever like to admit]].
* ExtremityExtremist: She fights exclusively with her fists.
* FloralThemeNaming: Tanpopo is the Japanese name for dandelion.
* FreudianExcuse: She once wanted to bring happiness to humans, but every time she tried, the humans she brought good luck to became lost in their greed and fell into ruin. Coming to believe humans were all selfish and petty, Tanpopo decided to stop trying to help them and make them miserable like her.
* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: Tanpopo causes Keita's baby brother to get hit by a motorcycle which would have rendered him braindead if Ichiko's good fortune energy haven't caused a miraculous recovery. She also threatens the life of Ichiko's friends and innocent civilians just to force Ichiko to surrender. After being defeated, Tanpopo goes on a rant about her experiences with humans that convinced her they aren't worth helping. In return, Ichiko and Momiji show little sympathy for her and don't hesitate to beat her silly when Tanpopo tries to refuse making amends for what she did to Keita's family.
* TheGamblingAddict: She loses 80,000 yen playing pachinko in a ''single afternoon''.
* HandPuppet: She always wears a pair of cat hand puppets that she uses to communicate through {{Ventriloquism}}. They also work as boxing gloves.

* HowTheMightyHaveFallen: From the most dangerous and feared assassin of the Fortune Gods to a jobless tramp who more than once offers her body for money.
* IJustWantToHaveFriends: After her fight against Ichiko and Momiji, Tanpopo admits to Konjikihime that she truly wanted to become friends with the humans she helped like Momiji did with Ichiko, but it never worked out for her.
* IWillPunishYourFriendForYourFailure: Her favorite tactic to deal with her targets is to threaten and hurt their loved ones so they won't resist when Tanpopo kills them.
* KnightOfCerebus: She's the first serious antagonist of the story and while the story maintains the comedy, she still marks the point where the story shifted towards darkness.
* LaserBlade: Her cat hand puppets con wield these.
* LaughablyEvil: She may be a very intimidating and cruel villain, yet Tanpopo can put up a good comedy routine with her habit to communicate through hand puppets.
* MirrorCharacter: Turns out Tanpopo is almost the same as Ichiko was before she started to change thanks to Momiji and her other friends. Like Ichiko, Tanpopo was an innocent girl who grew bitter after seeing the ugly sides of people and decided no one was worth helping with her fortune energy. Thanks to seeing Ichiko's friendship with Momiji and Konjikihime supporting Tanpopo, Tanpopo starts changing for the better like Ichiko.
* NavelWindow: She wears a Chinese dress with a cutout around her navel.
* NeverMyFault: As she repeatedly failed to make humans happy in the long run, Tanpopo refused to accept the cause of it could be her low fortune energy, placing all the blame in the greed and stupidity of humans.
* NiceHat: She wears a witch hat, although she's a Fortune God.
* PlayingCardMotifs: Her regular attire and her MagicalGirl one have club symbols.
* ProfessionalKiller: Her line of work in the god world consists of eliminating humans who threaten the balance of fortune energy in the human world. Her latest target is Ichiko.
* TheQuietOne: She rarely speaks directly, preferring to communicate through her {{hand puppet}}s.
* RapunzelHair: Her hair reaches to the back of her knees.
* RevengeByProxy: Not really revenge but all of her assignments have her first going after those close to her target and then [[BestForLast finally taking out the target]].
* SexForServices: After she loses her job at the God's realm, Tanpopo can't think of any ways to earn money other than selling her body. She lets Bobby rub her naked breasts for merely 20,000 yen and offers Keita to wash his body in the bath. Konjikihime is outraged at Tanpopo's utter lack of dignity.
* SourOutsideSadInside: For most of her arc, Tanpopo is cruel, merciless and dangerously vicious. When Ichiko uses her good fortune energy to stop a hurricane, she sees Tanpopo's real self: a sad little girl who only wanted to make humans happy, but became disillusioned after her attempts never turned out good.
* StoicSpectacles: She wears glasses and has the same cold facial expression most of the time. The only other expression which she makes is a dreadful DeathGlare.
* TookALevelInKindness: After her arc, Tanpopo is growing into a more decent person even if she's still prone to violence, as seen when she attacks a {{Jerkass}} for hurting a service dog. This gives Konjikihime hope that Tanpopo can eventually return to being the sweet girl she once was.
* TragicBigot: Her bad experiences with humans convinced her that they're all selfish people who only waste their good luck in becoming rich until they lose everything.
* UsedToBeASweetKid: Before being broken by repeated failures, she was a nice child whose only wish was to help people attain happiness.
* {{Ventriloquism}}: She could be considered TheVoiceless, except when she speaks it is through her {{hand puppet}}s.
* VictoriasSecretCompartment: Where she pulls out her fortune items from.
* WillfullyWeak: She sealed away her own fortune energy after she decided to never use it for the sake of humans again.
* YouCantGoHomeAgain: After failing her mission to kill Ichiko, Tanpopo stays in the human world with Konjikihime since Tanpopo's boss had ordered Tanpopo to be [[YouHaveFailedMe killed in case of her failure]].
* YouHaveFailedMe: Turns out she was ''also'' supposed to be executed with a BigRedButton designed to eliminate her should she fail her mission. Konjikihime, unto whom the task was assigned, simply couldn't find the courage to do as their superior tells her.

* MasterOfThreads: She manipulates threads and uses them like a spider web to restrain people.
* MsExposition: She provides most of the information concerning Tanpopo and her methods
* NiceHat: She usually wears a winter hat.

----
* AndIMustScream: After the death of Kanna, the ribbon that would eventually become Botan was locked away somewhere dark and forgotten for centuries. When Botan eventually awoke as an item, all she had were the dark, the silence and occasional stray moments to think about Kanna for what would be all of eternity so far as she knew. She was eventually able to leave [[spoiler:but at the end of the arc states that she would rather die than go back to that, though this isn't necessary in the end. Though her soul is still trapped in a small, fragile ball now.]]

[[quoteright:249:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ikari_binbougami.jpg]]

----
* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: When he was human, the people of his village drove him out because his presence attracted misfortune to those around him.
* AlwaysSaveTheGirl: When Kanna was alive, Kanna's safety was the only thing that mattered to Ikari.

* AnimeHair: The top of his hair looks like a rooster's cockscomb.
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: His love for Kanna is stemmed by her being the only person who ever showed him unconditional kindness and compassion.
* BigBad: He's responsible for all the troubles in Ichiko's life, such as her massive fortune energy and the isolation she suffered because of it. He antagonizes both the humans and gods in his attempts to resurrect Kanna.
* {{Bishonen}}: Ikari is pretty enough that he could be mistaken for a woman in the right clothing.
* BornUnlucky: Opposite to Ichiko and Kanna, Ikari was born with excessive amount of misfortune energy. When he went on a walk, he got dirty with animal excrement, he got into accidents such as almost drowning or being attacked by wild animals and the food he picked up was always rotten. To make it worse, his misfortune affected anyone who got close to him, which got him chased off his village. The only way he was able to achieve some happiness in his life was being around Kanna, as her fortune energy canceled out his misfortune energy.

* TheComicallySerious: He quite seriously believes in ''Shounen Jump'' philosophy.
* CradleOfLoneliness: He clung on to Kanna's rotting corpse for a while until he buried it.
* CreateYourOwnHero: He was the one who granted Ichiko her massive fortune energy so she could eventually become a god like him. Ichiko ends up using that fortune energy to save people and stop him. He's also responsible for Momiji's existence because [[spoiler:Momiji was born from half of his soul]].
* DarkLordOnLifeSupport: [[spoiler:His real body is deteriorated from old age and confined to a throne with life support equipment.]]
* DarkSkinnedBlond: He has dark skin and silver-colored hair.
* DeityOfHumanOrigin: He was a human who became a god after receiving all of Kanna's fortune energy.
* DespairEventHorizon: Kanna's death destroyed him, especially because she sacrificed herself to save him and he came to believe he was the reason for her death.
* DiseaseBleach: His hair becomes bleached due to the trauma caused by Kanna's death.
* FreudianExcuse: Kanna was the only person who ever loved him, but she died to save him and now that he became a god, he can't even join her in death. To solve this, Ikari tries to replace Ichiko's memories with Kanna's, turn her into a god, kill everyone in her city and create another dimension where he and Kanna can be together forever.
* GracefulLoser: [[spoiler:After falling to Ichiko and Momiji's combined attack, witnessing his physical body being dissolved, and Kanna's spirit soothing his rage, Ikari finally decides to lay down his arms and order his subordinates to surrender.]]
* GreenEyedMonster: He tells Keita to "stay away from his (Ikari's) woman" [[spoiler:and erases Ichiko from his memory]] because he hates to see Kanna's reincarnation being in love with another man.
* HadesShaded: His skin turned dark after Hanabishi transferred a portion of her massive misfortune energy to his body.
* HeelRealization: [[spoiler:Once he's finally defeated, Ikari sees where he went wrong when Ichiko lets him have a final conversation with Kanna and he realizes the only thing his efforts to bring Kanna back accomplished was making her cry over how much her HeroicSacrifice made him suffer.]]
* ILetGwenStacyDie: For centuries, he has blamed himself over his beloved Kanna performing a HeroicSacrifice to save his life at the cost of her own.
* {{Jerkass}}: He's become an extremely unpleasant person since Kanna died.
* TheJinx: Having too much misfortune energy for a human, disaster befell anyone who got close to Ikari. Kanna wasn't affected by it because her large amount of fortune energy countered Ikari's misfortune.
* KickTheDog: He wastes no time at all in his first appearance to [[spoiler:"kill" Botan in cold blood]]. Almost everytime he appears or his name is mentioned a dog kicking moment happens almost immediately.
* KnightOfCerebus: Tanpopo was the first KnightOfCerebus with her brutal beatdowns of unrelated strangers and emotional sadism, but throughout the arc the humor did manage to keep up. However, with Ikari as the villain the story took an uncharacteristically grim turn [[spoiler:and gives Ichiko a brief but severe breakdown.]]
* LackOfEmpathy: As long as he can achieve his goal of reviving Kanna, Ikari has no qualms murdering gods and humans along the way, or even plunging "his woman", Ichiko, into despair.
* LongHairedPrettyBoy: His face is rather feminine-looking and his hair reaches his feet.
* LoveMakesYouEvil: All his villainy is motivated by his love for Kanna and how much he misses her. The "garden" he seeks to make is in reality a heaven where gods nor humans can hurt them.

* {{Necromantic}}: He's determined to bring Kanna back to life.
* NotSoAboveItAll: Even the dead serious BigBad has his silly moments. He even took time to school Ichiko and Keita on their awkward puppy-love phase.
* OppositesAttract: With Kanna. He was abrasive, cynical, and BornUnlucky, as opposed to Kanna who was kind, idealistic, and BornLucky. Ikari could only be happy with Kanna because her fortune energy cancelled his misfortune energy.
* PetTheDog: Contrasting the KickTheDog, upon seeing Ichiko crying at [[spoiler:the shattered Botan]] he says that if she is worth crying over then Ichiko should take care of her [[spoiler:and restores the shattered soul gem]]. Combined, the two add up to someone with skewed but ambiguous values. He still keeps the ribbon that she needs to actually manifest in human form because he wants to keep as much of Kanna's stuff as possible.
* PopCulturedBadass: When his jewel necklace is removed, he directly compares it to [[Manga/DragonBall Son Goku removing the Kame Sen'nin's shell]] and uses PowerLevels speech when comparing himself to the heroes. Keita [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] this by calling Ikari a ''Magazine/ShonenJump'' fan.
* PrematurelyGreyHaired: His black hair turned white as a result of the trauma of losing Kanna.
* RapunzelHair: His hair is about as long as his body.
* TouchedByVorlons: He became a god after Kanna sacrificed herself by releasing all of her fortune energy to save him.

* TragicVillain: He was a lonely and terribly unlucky man who only wanted to be by the side of the only woman who ever loved him. By sheer misfortune, that woman died to save his life and inadvertently made him an immortal god in the process. Not bearing to live out eternity without his love, Ikari wants to overwrite Kanna's reincarnation's mind with Kanna's and wipe out the entire population of Butsumetsu City to create a paradise for only him and Kanna.
* TraumaticHaircut: Kanna once tried to cut Ikari's BarbarianLonghair with a sword and some kids hugged her by surprise, resulting in his current AnimeHair.
* UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans: His ultimate plan is to create an ideal garden overflowing with fortune energy and throw it to an alternate dimension where he and a resurrected Kanna can live in everlasting happiness as a GodCouple. He intends to turn Butsumetsu City into the garden by using a process of divinification, which will consequently kill all the humans residing the city.

----
* BadPowersBadPeople: In theory, bond severance gods are supposed to take care of cleaning up messy, failed relationships to spare people pain. They can also help with curing addictions or dieting.
