[[folder:Protagonists]]
!!Kenshi Masaki
->'''Voiced by:''' HiroShimono (Japanese), Creator/JasonLiebrecht (English)
The younger half-brother of Masaki Tenchi, he has spent his entire life being "educated" in the Masaki household.
----
* AccidentalPervert
* TheAce
* AlmightyJanitor: Before Kenshi reveals that he's a Seikishi, he manages to earn this kind of reputation as Lashara's servant.
* AnimalMotifs: Kenshi is constantly compared to the Koros.
* AntiHero: Begins as a very mild Disney Anti-Hero; he does [[UnscrupulousHero willing takes part in an attack on Lashara]] hoping to be returned home, but ultimately refuses to actually kill her when ordered. One MookFaceTurn later, and he's fully on the side of the angels for the rest of the series.
* [[spoiler:ArtificialHuman: It is revealed by [[MrExposition Naua]] that he is descended from one of the three artificial humans created by the Ancient Civilization to defeat Gaia, [[FlingALightIntoTheFuture which was sent to another world as a last-ditch measure if the other two failed]].]]
** [[spoiler:It is hinted that the artificial human in question may be his mother Rea, as a silhouette of her can be seen in episode 11.]]
*** [[spoiler:The ''[[WordOfGod Tenchi Ban 13.8]]'' doujinshi formally revealed that Kenshi's mother was that artificial human. She was found by Tenchi's mother and adopted into the Masaki clan before becoming Nobuyuki's second wife, explaining the previous revelations that confused the issue.]]
* BadassFamily: Although none of his more [[Anime/TenchiMuyo familiar relatives]] really appear, it's clear that he's learned a lot from them (even while he'd been [[OvershadowedByAwesome overshadowed by them]]).
* BewareTheNiceOnes
* {{BFS}}: The Tenchi-ken, a sword made from a '''''[[RuleOfCool compressed mountain]]'''''!
* BigNo: Has said it four times during the series' run: one involving all the girls stripping him, two involving Mexiah and one involving Flora.
* BokeAndTsukkomiRoutine: The boke to Chiaia's tsukkomi.
* CatchPhrase: "I'm sorry!" (Usually when he's being scolded by Chiaia.)
* ChasteHero: He shows some signs of it, but we can't blame him; he just wants to go home.
* ChekhovsGun: Prior to him being sent to Geminar, Kenshi was hypnotized by Washu to ensure no one knows they have a spaceship (or any of their outer-space {{Magitek}} in that matter). This becomes important in the last episode when [[spoiler:Chiaia promises to let him dig all the crystals he wants if he beats Gaia, causing him to form a Light-Hawk {{BFS}} and break through Gaia's [[NighInvulnerable impregnable armor]].]]
* ChickMagnet
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass
* EmbarrassingNickname: Lithia calls him "wild beast", which later becomes {{justified|trope}} following her NoodleIncident with him.
* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Ulyte seems a bit too ''friendly'' with Kenshi.
** [[spoiler:Subverted, since Ulyte had been turned as a child into one of the three ancient female dolls.]]
* FishOutOfTemporalWater: In the beginning. He gets better as the series progresses.
* HappyEndingMassage: Turns out his massages give the girls this feeling as an aftereffect.
* KidHero: Kenshi is 15, but looks and acts young enough to qualify.
* MeaningfulName: His given name means "Swordsman", referring to his WeaponOfChoice.
* TheMessiah: It's shown and discussed several times in the series that his influence catalyzes those around him into becoming better people and TrueCompanions.
* MistreatmentInducedBetrayal: In the first episode, he starts out serving the "Masked Knight" ([[FirstEpisodeSpoiler Dagmyer]]) while trying to assassinate Lashara, in the hopes of getting home. Dagmyer tries to force Kenshi to do the dirty work he failed at, insults him at every opportunity, tries to have him killed [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness when he outlived his usefulness]], and adds insult to injury by admitting that he'd never intended to help Kenshi return home in the first place. A few minutes later, Dagmyer's ''offended'' that Kenshi decided to betray his "benefactor" and fight his way out of danger.
* MookHorrorShow: Both in and out of his Seikijin, Kenshi is a fearsome opponent...and that's ''before'' you [[UnstoppableRage piss him off]].
* MundaneMadeAwesome: Kenishi uses his SuperStrength, speed, and {{Badass}}ness to do chores around the school. A ''lot'' faster than the staff can handle (ex. by the time it took a maid to finish half her room cleanings, he finished the same number and came to help her). And that mosaic on the arc. While the three artisans are discussing how to replicate the original mosaic on one tower, Kenshi was already done.
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: When he's first captured by Lashara, Kenshi plays dumb about his bosses out of honor. Fortunately, he figures out that his loyalty wasn't reciprocated.
* NatureHero: Even the elves are impressed by how well he knows his way in the forest.
* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: One-quarter human and one-quarter Jurian on his father's side, and [[spoiler:half ArtificialHuman on his mother's side]].
* NormalFishInATinyPond: Back home, he was the runt of the Masaki family. On Geminar, he's practically invincible.
* OneManArmy
* RealMenWearPink: Kenshi can cook, clean and kick your ass 12 ways to Sunday.
* RedOniBlueOni: Red to Chiaia's blue.
* ShortHairWithTail: Like his half-brother, he also sports this.
* TykeBomb: [[spoiler:[[AllThereInTheManual A doujinshi released by series creator Masaki Kajishima]] revealed that Tenchi's family had deliberately raised Kenshi to prepare him to be sent to Geminar. Since he was never given any information about Geminar, he was ultimately TheUnchosenOne anyway.]]
* UnluckyEverydude
* UnwittingPawn: He was only used by Dagmyer to assassinate Lashara. Even Chiaia [[LampshadeHanging points it out]] during his brief imprisonment.
!!Lashara Earth XXVIII

The twelve year old queen of Shtrayu, she is a member of the Student Council and Kenshi's prime benefactor during the series.

* CoolShip: The ''Swan''.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold
* MoneyFetish: See below.
* MsViceGirl: She eagerly takes advantage of all the money and status she can get (especially what she can get because of Kenshi), but from the moment she spares Kenshi she shows a deep compassion for both him and Chiaia.
* OjouRinglets
* PhenotypeStereotype: Averted since she's a native of Geminar.
* PleaseDontLeaveMe: Tells Kenshi this in episode 10 upon realizing that he is a free agent.
* RedOniBlueOni: Red to Chiaia's blue.
* RoyalWe: The Funimation English translations use this to translate her use of {{Keigo}} and the first-person pronoun "[[UsefulNotes/JapanesePronouns ware]]".
* ShoutOut: Her name is a reference to Lashara Moon and Photon Earth from ''[[{{Anime/Photon}} Photon]]'', another work from Kajishima.
* TheWomanWearingTheQueenlyMask: She's not the most regal personality in the world, but it's made clear that a lot of how she acts is because of the weight of responsibility she's had to bear.

* FieryRedhead
* [[spoiler: HeroicBSOD: A minor one in episode 8 after learning Mexiah is really Doll and her [[ArtificialHuman true]] [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld origins]].]]
* TheLancer

* {{Shorttank}}
* SignificantGreenEyedRedhead

* {{Shotacon}}: Poor Kenshi...
* TeacherStudentRomance: With Kenshi, though it's one-sided.
* VerbalTic: In episode 3 when training Kenshi for his job as a masseuse, she starts ending her sentences with "zamatsu" (translated in Funimation's subtitled streams as "Don't you know?" and in the English dub as "Baby Boy/Girl".). She still says it on rare occasions.

Lashara's cousin and Princess of Havoniwa. She and Lashara have a rather strong rivalry.
----

Maria's personal attendant and bodyguard. Yukine is also a seikishi and is shyly in love with Kenshi.

* BigDamnHeroes: Shows up in the nick of time to prevent the Meteor Fall (which was hijacked by Cordyline and the bandits) from destroying the ''Swan'' in episode 10, giving Kenshi a chance to take out one of the reactors that was keeping it afloat.
* CrushBlush: Practically every time she looks at Kenshi.
* CryCute: In episode 6 after finding out that her bare breasts are pressing against Kenshi's chest (after being disrobed and pushed by ''Flora'', no less), requiring both Lashara and Maria to comfort her afterwards. D'aww...
* {{Foil}}: To Chiaia, as Maria's bodyguard.
* {{Miko}}: She may not look it, but she comes from a long line of them back in her homeland who were able to communicate with the Goddess, just like RealLife mikos with the ''kami''.
* ReiAyanamiExpy: White-haired, [[TheStoic stoic and dutiful]], except for [[ShyBlueHairedGirl when she acts shy in the presence of the guy she's in love with]].
* ShrinkingViolet: When it comes to Kenshi.

* {{Guile Hero}}ine: She makes up for her relative lack of piloting skill with her own inventions, as well as by outhinking her opponents.
* HairDecorations: She uses alligator clips to hold her pigtails.
* InSeriesNickname: Wahan.
* MadScientist: She has a tendency to make excuses to use her inventions to solve her problems (When you have a giant robot, everything starts looking like a nail). Kenshi in particular inspired many improvements to her Mechaworkers by being a guinea pig for previous versions.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Her actual age is 97 due to her being in hibernation at the Barrier Workshop prior to the series.
* ReedRichardsIsUseless: Averted -- The Mechaworkers changed the face of warfare on Geminar, especially after Emera stole the plans.

* [[TheSmartGuy The Smart Girl]]
* WrenchWench: Despite being a Sacred MechaMaster, she loves working on her machinery and inventions.
* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Lavender Hair]]
!!Lithia Po Cheena

* LuminescentBlush: Begins to sport this midway through the series.
* TheOjou: Princess of Shurifon
* PointyEars
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Doesn't let being a Princess or her position on the Student Council stop her [[ReasonableAuthorityFigure from helping out when she can]].
* TheStoic: Most of the time.
** NotSoStoic: Notably during her weak period. She does display a surprising amount of emotion for an Elf though, given her father is of the extremely rare (for Elves) [[HotBlooded hot blooded variety]]...
* WeaksauceWeakness: Like all of her people, once a day for about an hour Aura loses most of her physical strength while her personality changes to something befitting a DistressedDamsel (This gets used as an excuse for some RescueRomance ShipTease with Kenshi, and a few laughs when she returns to normal).
[[/folder]]
[[folder: Holy Land Academy]]

Four upperclassmen often encountered by Kenshi and company. They are not quite as nice to their underclassmen as they to Kenshi.
----
* [[ThoseTwoGuys Those Four Girls]]
** [[BigDamnHeroes Big Damn Those Four Girls]]: In episode 12 when Lan attacks Kenshi's group while they're creating the Tenchi-Ken; they arrive in the nick of time, giving Kenshi enough time to finish the sword and save the day.
** ColourfulThemeNaming: Those Four Girls have names loosely based on their hair colors -- Yeliss, Bwoole, Gryino, and Wreda.
*** Their ''Seikijin'' is even the same color as their hair color, taking this trope UpToEleven.
* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Bwoole Hair]]: All of them.

!!Ceres Taito

A male seikishi from a humble background, he is the only male seikishi who is not part of the male seikishi clique in Kenshi's class and treats Kenshi well.
----
* BetaCouple: With Hazuki.
* MoralityPet: Episode 6 establishes its characters' moral bona-fides by their reaction to him trying to meet with Hazuki. Kenshi agrees to keep quiet as soon as he hears, tries to arrange for the pair to escape together, and asks his harem to do the same. The haremettes agree, with various degrees of reluctance, because of Kenshi. Dagmyer, who overheard Ceres explaining to Kenshi, dismisses him as a wuss for not taking what he wants, but keeps quiet. On the other hand, Cordyline is introduced helping smuggle Ceres to his rendezvous, but reveals that she's planning to kidnap and sell him.
* StarCrossedLovers: Again, with Hazuki, because of his status as a Sacred Mechamaster. This later becomes defied upon joining the ''Swan'' ([[spoiler:now under Kwnshi's leadership]]).

Son of Babalun, he is an arrogant male seikishi who is often shown to be a lot less capable than he thinks he is.
----
* BlondesAreEvil
* CharClone
* EvenEvilHasStandards: In episode 11 where he accepted Cliff's heinous plan to lure in (and eventually kill) Kenshi [[spoiler:using Ceres as bait with a dangerous reactor strapped to the back of his Seikijin]]. He showed some disgust in the plan, but hesitantly accepted in hopes of it succeeding, even if it means having to kill another Seikishi.
* [[spoiler:LikesOlderWomen: Apparently he has a thing going on with Cordyline. [[KilledOffForReal It didn't last long]].]]
* ManipulativeBastard
* OverlordJr
* TheResenter: He becomes more fearful and resentful of Kenshi as time passes, [[VillainousBreakdown and it shows]].
* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: To Chiaia -- although she's attracted to him, the rules forbidding male and female Seikishi dating freely kept them apart (Ultimately, the problem was Dagmyer's inferiority complex).
* [[spoiler:VillainDecay]]
* [[spoiler:VillainousBreakdown: Dagmyer has one spanning most of the series due to growing fear and resentment of Kenshi. It culminates in a FreakOut and complete mental collapse in episode 11 after Kenshi goes ''[[UnstoppableRage berserk]]'' in his Seikishi, brutally kills one of his comrades, and nearly does the same to Dagmyer, scaring him shitless.]]
* [[spoiler:VillainousValour: His duel with Kenshi in the final episode is made of this trope. He's still hopelessly outmatched, but he faces his fears head-on and meets defeat with honor.]]
* WellIntentionedExtremist: Dagmyer wants to change the status quo because he's sick of being treated like a stud horse. Too bad he's doing this by following Babalun's orders.

Brother of Babalun and an instructor in the Holy Land Academy. He has a weak constitution and often has to rest after exerting himself.

* BigBrotherMentor: For both Kenshi and Dagmyer.
* TheConsigliere: Right-hand man to Babalun.
* DragonWithAnAgenda: Although he's one of the top people in Babalun's conspiracy, it's clear that he has plans of his own.
* [[spoiler:GoodAllAlong: While made to look like one of the villains, both Ulyte and Neizai turn out to have always been on Kenshi's side. Both simply had to play along with Babalun in order to stop him.]]
* [[spoiler:SharingABody: With Neizai/Rea Second ever since her HeartDrive crystal was implanted in him.]]

* AccidentalPervert
* TheAce
* AlmightyJanitor: Before Kenshi reveals that he's a Seikishi, he manages to earn this kind of reputation as Lashara's servant.
* AnimalMotifs: Kenshi is constantly compared to the Koros.
* AntiHero: Begins as a very mild Disney Anti-Hero; he does [[UnscrupulousHero willing takes part in an attack on Lashara]] hoping to be returned home, but ultimately refuses to actually kill her when ordered. One MookFaceTurn later, and he's fully on the side of the angels for the rest of the series.
* [[spoiler:ArtificialHuman: It is revealed by [[MrExposition Naua]] that he is descended from one of the three artificial humans created by the Ancient Civilization to defeat Gaia, [[FlingALightIntoTheFuture which was sent to another world as a last-ditch measure if the other two failed]].]]
** [[spoiler:It is hinted that the artificial human in question may be his mother Rea, as a silhouette of her can be seen in episode 11.]]
*** [[spoiler:The ''[[WordOfGod Tenchi Ban 13.8]]'' doujinshi formally revealed that Kenshi's mother was that artificial human. She was found by Tenchi's mother and adopted into the Masaki clan before becoming Nobuyuki's second wife, explaining the previous revelations that confused the issue.]]
* BadassFamily: Although none of his more [[Anime/TenchiMuyo familiar relatives]] really appear, it's clear that he's learned a lot from them (even while he'd been [[OvershadowedByAwesome overshadowed by them]]).
* BewareTheNiceOnes
* {{BFS}}: The Tenchi-ken, a sword made from a '''''[[RuleOfCool compressed mountain]]'''''!
* BigNo: Has said it four times during the series' run: one involving all the girls stripping him, two involving Mexiah and one involving Flora.
* BokeAndTsukkomiRoutine: The boke to Chiaia's tsukkomi.
* CatchPhrase: "I'm sorry!" (Usually when he's being scolded by Chiaia.)
* ChasteHero: He shows some signs of it, but we can't blame him; he just wants to go home.
* ChekhovsGun: Prior to him being sent to Geminar, Kenshi was hypnotized by Washu to ensure no one knows they have a spaceship (or any of their outer-space {{Magitek}} in that matter). This becomes important in the last episode when [[spoiler:Chiaia promises to let him dig all the crystals he wants if he beats Gaia, causing him to form a Light-Hawk {{BFS}} and break through Gaia's [[NighInvulnerable impregnable armor]].]]
* ChickMagnet
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass
* EmbarrassingNickname: Lithia calls him "wild beast", which later becomes {{justified|trope}} following her NoodleIncident with him.
* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Ulyte seems a bit too ''friendly'' with Kenshi.
** [[spoiler:Subverted, since Ulyte had been turned as a child into one of the three ancient female dolls.]]

* HappyEndingMassage: Turns out his massages give the girls this feeling as an aftereffect.
* KidHero: Kenshi is 15, but looks and acts young enough to qualify.
* MeaningfulName: His given name means "Swordsman", referring to his WeaponOfChoice.
* TheMessiah: It's shown and discussed several times in the series that his influence catalyzes those around him into becoming better people and TrueCompanions.
* MistreatmentInducedBetrayal: In the first episode, he starts out serving the "Masked Knight" ([[FirstEpisodeSpoiler Dagmyer]]) while trying to assassinate Lashara, in the hopes of getting home. Dagmyer tries to force Kenshi to do the dirty work he failed at, insults him at every opportunity, tries to have him killed [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness when he outlived his usefulness]], and adds insult to injury by admitting that he'd never intended to help Kenshi return home in the first place. A few minutes later, Dagmyer's ''offended'' that Kenshi decided to betray his "benefactor" and fight his way out of danger.
* MookHorrorShow: Both in and out of his Seikijin, Kenshi is a fearsome opponent...and that's ''before'' you [[UnstoppableRage piss him off]].
* MundaneMadeAwesome: Kenishi uses his SuperStrength, speed, and {{Badass}}ness to do chores around the school. A ''lot'' faster than the staff can handle (ex. by the time it took a maid to finish half her room cleanings, he finished the same number and came to help her). And that mosaic on the arc. While the three artisans are discussing how to replicate the original mosaic on one tower, Kenshi was already done.
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: When he's first captured by Lashara, Kenshi plays dumb about his bosses out of honor. Fortunately, he figures out that his loyalty wasn't reciprocated.

* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: One-quarter human and one-quarter Jurian on his father's side, and [[spoiler:half ArtificialHuman on his mother's side]].

* UnluckyEverydude
* UnwittingPawn: He was only used by Dagmyer to assassinate Lashara. Even Chiaia [[LampshadeHanging points it out]] during his brief imprisonment.

* PhenotypeStereotype: Averted since she's a native of Geminar.
* PleaseDontLeaveMe: Tells Kenshi this in episode 10 upon realizing that he is a free agent.
* RedOniBlueOni: Red to Chiaia's blue.
* RoyalWe: The Funimation English translations use this to translate her use of {{Keigo}} and the first-person pronoun "[[UsefulNotes/JapanesePronouns ware]]".
* ShoutOut: Her name is a reference to Lashara Moon and Photon Earth from ''[[{{Anime/Photon}} Photon]]'', another work from Kajishima.
* TheWomanWearingTheQueenlyMask: She's not the most regal personality in the world, but it's made clear that a lot of how she acts is because of the weight of responsibility she's had to bear.

* VerbalTic: In episode 3 when training Kenshi for his job as a masseuse, she starts ending her sentences with "zamatsu" (translated in Funimation's subtitled streams as "Don't you know?" and in the English dub as "Baby Boy/Girl".). She still says it on rare occasions.

* CrushBlush: Practically every time she looks at Kenshi.
* CryCute: In episode 6 after finding out that her bare breasts are pressing against Kenshi's chest (after being disrobed and pushed by ''Flora'', no less), requiring both Lashara and Maria to comfort her afterwards. D'aww...
* {{Foil}}: To Chiaia, as Maria's bodyguard.
* {{Miko}}: She may not look it, but she comes from a long line of them back in her homeland who were able to communicate with the Goddess, just like RealLife mikos with the ''kami''.

* HairDecorations: She uses alligator clips to hold her pigtails.
* InSeriesNickname: Wahan.

* OlderThanTheyLook: Her actual age is 97 due to her being in hibernation at the Barrier Workshop prior to the series.
* ReedRichardsIsUseless: Averted -- The Mechaworkers changed the face of warfare on Geminar, especially after Emera stole the plans.

* LuminescentBlush: Begins to sport this midway through the series.
* TheOjou: Princess of Shurifon
* PointyEars
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Doesn't let being a Princess or her position on the Student Council stop her [[ReasonableAuthorityFigure from helping out when she can]].
* TheStoic: Most of the time.
** NotSoStoic: Notably during her weak period. She does display a surprising amount of emotion for an Elf though, given her father is of the extremely rare (for Elves) [[HotBlooded hot blooded variety]]...
* WeaksauceWeakness: Like all of her people, once a day for about an hour Aura loses most of her physical strength while her personality changes to something befitting a DistressedDamsel (This gets used as an excuse for some RescueRomance ShipTease with Kenshi, and a few laughs when she returns to normal).

A male seikishi from a humble background, he is the only male seikishi who is not part of the male seikishi clique in Kenshi's class and treats Kenshi well.
----
* BetaCouple: With Hazuki.
* MoralityPet: Episode 6 establishes its characters' moral bona-fides by their reaction to him trying to meet with Hazuki. Kenshi agrees to keep quiet as soon as he hears, tries to arrange for the pair to escape together, and asks his harem to do the same. The haremettes agree, with various degrees of reluctance, because of Kenshi. Dagmyer, who overheard Ceres explaining to Kenshi, dismisses him as a wuss for not taking what he wants, but keeps quiet. On the other hand, Cordyline is introduced helping smuggle Ceres to his rendezvous, but reveals that she's planning to kidnap and sell him.
* StarCrossedLovers: Again, with Hazuki, because of his status as a Sacred Mechamaster. This later becomes defied upon joining the ''Swan'' ([[spoiler:now under Kwnshi's leadership]]).

* CharClone
* EvenEvilHasStandards: In episode 11 where he accepted Cliff's heinous plan to lure in (and eventually kill) Kenshi [[spoiler:using Ceres as bait with a dangerous reactor strapped to the back of his Seikijin]]. He showed some disgust in the plan, but hesitantly accepted in hopes of it succeeding, even if it means having to kill another Seikishi.
* [[spoiler:LikesOlderWomen: Apparently he has a thing going on with Cordyline. [[KilledOffForReal It didn't last long]].]]
* ManipulativeBastard
* OverlordJr
* TheResenter: He becomes more fearful and resentful of Kenshi as time passes, [[VillainousBreakdown and it shows]].
* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: To Chiaia -- although she's attracted to him, the rules forbidding male and female Seikishi dating freely kept them apart (Ultimately, the problem was Dagmyer's inferiority complex).
* [[spoiler:VillainDecay]]
* [[spoiler:VillainousBreakdown: Dagmyer has one spanning most of the series due to growing fear and resentment of Kenshi. It culminates in a FreakOut and complete mental collapse in episode 11 after Kenshi goes ''[[UnstoppableRage berserk]]'' in his Seikishi, brutally kills one of his comrades, and nearly does the same to Dagmyer, scaring him shitless.]]

* TheAce
* AlmightyJanitor: Before Kenshi reveals that he's a Seikishi, he manages to earn this kind of reputation as Lashara's servant.
* AnimalMotifs: Kenshi is constantly compared to the Koros.
* AntiHero: Begins as a very mild Disney Anti-Hero; he does [[UnscrupulousHero willing takes part in an attack on Lashara]] hoping to be returned home, but ultimately refuses to actually kill her when ordered. One MookFaceTurn later, and he's fully on the side of the angels for the rest of the series.
* [[spoiler:ArtificialHuman: It is revealed by [[MrExposition Naua]] that he is descended from one of the three artificial humans created by the Ancient Civilization to defeat Gaia, [[FlingALightIntoTheFuture which was sent to another world as a last-ditch measure if the other two failed]].]]
** [[spoiler:It is hinted that the artificial human in question may be his mother Rea, as a silhouette of her can be seen in episode 11.]]
*** [[spoiler:The ''[[WordOfGod Tenchi Ban 13.8]]'' doujinshi formally revealed that Kenshi's mother was that artificial human. She was found by Tenchi's mother and adopted into the Masaki clan before becoming Nobuyuki's second wife, explaining the previous revelations that confused the issue.]]
* BadassFamily: Although none of his more [[Anime/TenchiMuyo familiar relatives]] really appear, it's clear that he's learned a lot from them (even while he'd been [[OvershadowedByAwesome overshadowed by them]]).
* BewareTheNiceOnes
* {{BFS}}: The Tenchi-ken, a sword made from a '''''[[RuleOfCool compressed mountain]]'''''!
* BigNo: Has said it four times during the series' run: one involving all the girls stripping him, two involving Mexiah and one involving Flora.
* BokeAndTsukkomiRoutine: The boke to Chiaia's tsukkomi.
* CatchPhrase: "I'm sorry!" (Usually when he's being scolded by Chiaia.)
* ChasteHero: He shows some signs of it, but we can't blame him; he just wants to go home.
* ChekhovsGun: Prior to him being sent to Geminar, Kenshi was hypnotized by Washu to ensure no one knows they have a spaceship (or any of their outer-space {{Magitek}} in that matter).

* ChickMagnet
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass
* EmbarrassingNickname: Lithia calls him "wild beast", which later becomes {{justified|trope}} following her NoodleIncident with him.

* HappyEndingMassage: Turns out his massages give the girls this feeling as an aftereffect.
* KidHero: Kenshi is 15, but looks and acts young enough to qualify.
* MeaningfulName: His given name means "Swordsman", referring to his WeaponOfChoice.
* TheMessiah: It's shown and discussed several times in the series that his influence catalyzes those around him into becoming better people and TrueCompanions.
* MistreatmentInducedBetrayal: In the first episode, he starts out serving the "Masked Knight" ([[FirstEpisodeSpoiler Dagmyer]]) while trying to assassinate Lashara, in the hopes of getting home. Dagmyer tries to force Kenshi to do the dirty work he failed at, insults him at every opportunity, tries to have him killed [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness when he outlived his usefulness]], and adds insult to injury by admitting that he'd never intended to help Kenshi return home in the first place. A few minutes later, Dagmyer's ''offended'' that Kenshi decided to betray his "benefactor" and fight his way out of danger.
* MookHorrorShow: Both in and out of his Seikijin, Kenshi is a fearsome opponent...and that's ''before'' you [[UnstoppableRage piss him off]].
* MundaneMadeAwesome: Kenishi uses his SuperStrength, speed, and {{Badass}}ness to do chores around the school. A ''lot'' faster than the staff can handle (ex. by the time it took a maid to finish half her room cleanings, he finished the same number and came to help her). And that mosaic on the arc. While the three artisans are discussing how to replicate the original mosaic on one tower, Kenshi was already done.
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: When he's first captured by Lashara, Kenshi plays dumb about his bosses out of honor. Fortunately, he figures out that his loyalty wasn't reciprocated.

* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: One-quarter human and one-quarter Jurian on his father's side, and [[spoiler:half ArtificialHuman on his mother's side]].

* UnluckyEverydude
* UnwittingPawn: He was only used by Dagmyer to assassinate Lashara. Even Chiaia [[LampshadeHanging points it out]] during his brief imprisonment.
!!Lashara Earth XXVIII

* PhenotypeStereotype: Averted since she's a native of Geminar.
* PleaseDontLeaveMe: Tells Kenshi this in episode 10 upon realizing that he is a free agent.
* RedOniBlueOni: Red to Chiaia's blue.
* RoyalWe: The Funimation English translations use this to translate her use of {{Keigo}} and the first-person pronoun "[[UsefulNotes/JapanesePronouns ware]]".
* ShoutOut: Her name is a reference to Lashara Moon and Photon Earth from ''[[{{Anime/Photon}} Photon]]'', another work from Kajishima.
* TheWomanWearingTheQueenlyMask: She's not the most regal personality in the world, but it's made clear that a lot of how she acts is because of the weight of responsibility she's had to bear.

* CrushBlush: Practically every time she looks at Kenshi.
* CryCute: In episode 6 after finding out that her bare breasts are pressing against Kenshi's chest (after being disrobed and pushed by ''Flora'', no less), requiring both Lashara and Maria to comfort her afterwards. D'aww...
* {{Foil}}: To Chiaia, as Maria's bodyguard.

* HairDecorations: She uses alligator clips to hold her pigtails.
* InSeriesNickname: Wahan.

* OlderThanTheyLook: Her actual age is 97 due to her being in hibernation at the Barrier Workshop prior to the series.
* ReedRichardsIsUseless: Averted -- The Mechaworkers changed the face of warfare on Geminar, especially after Emera stole the plans.

* TheOjou: Princess of Shurifon
* PointyEars
* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething: Doesn't let being a Princess or her position on the Student Council stop her [[ReasonableAuthorityFigure from helping out when she can]].
* TheStoic: Most of the time.
** NotSoStoic: Notably during her weak period. She does display a surprising amount of emotion for an Elf though, given her father is of the extremely rare (for Elves) [[HotBlooded hot blooded variety]]...
* WeaksauceWeakness: Like all of her people, once a day for about an hour Aura loses most of her physical strength while her personality changes to something befitting a DistressedDamsel (This gets used as an excuse for some RescueRomance ShipTease with Kenshi, and a few laughs when she returns to normal).

A male seikishi from a humble background, he is the only male seikishi who is not part of the male seikishi clique in Kenshi's class and treats Kenshi well.
----
* BetaCouple: With Hazuki.
* MoralityPet: Episode 6 establishes its characters' moral bona-fides by their reaction to him trying to meet with Hazuki. Kenshi agrees to keep quiet as soon as he hears, tries to arrange for the pair to escape together, and asks his harem to do the same. The haremettes agree, with various degrees of reluctance, because of Kenshi. Dagmyer, who overheard Ceres explaining to Kenshi, dismisses him as a wuss for not taking what he wants, but keeps quiet. On the other hand, Cordyline is introduced helping smuggle Ceres to his rendezvous, but reveals that she's planning to kidnap and sell him.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: In episode 11 where he accepted Cliff's heinous plan to lure in (and eventually kill) Kenshi [[spoiler:using Ceres as bait with a dangerous reactor strapped to the back of his Seikijin]]. He showed some disgust in the plan, but hesitantly accepted in hopes of it succeeding, even if it means having to kill another Seikishi.
* [[spoiler:LikesOlderWomen: Apparently he has a thing going on with Cordyline. [[KilledOffForReal It didn't last long]].]]
* ManipulativeBastard
* OverlordJr
* TheResenter: He becomes more fearful and resentful of Kenshi as time passes, [[VillainousBreakdown and it shows]].

* [[spoiler:VillainDecay]]
* [[spoiler:VillainousBreakdown: Dagmyer has one spanning most of the series due to growing fear and resentment of Kenshi. It culminates in a FreakOut and complete mental collapse in episode 11 after Kenshi goes ''[[UnstoppableRage berserk]]'' in his Seikishi, brutally kills one of his comrades, and nearly does the same to Dagmyer, scaring him shitless.]]
