Jinbei
- Jinbei"It doesn't matter if you had it down the first time, this is how it's traditionally done!"
A shikigami who serves at the Senri shrine and gives the protagonists missions in order to resolve incidents.
- Familiar: They're a shikigami of the Senri shrine.
- Mentor Archetype: To Tsubakura.
- Non-Action Guy: Despite being a shikigami, their only role in Len'en is giving missions to the heroes.
- Stern Teacher: They're the one giving Yabusame and Tsubakura missions, and they don't tend to chew up the work at all, leaving them to do the work on their own. However, Jinbei does show concern for both of them, most notably in their Reactivate Majestical Imperial ending. They also tend to be more lenient with Yabusame because they're cute.
Jun Amanomiya
- Raincoat Between a Rock and a Hard Place
- Jun Amanomiya"Well, I'm just a humble rain youkai."
A rain youkai who is a known swindler. They make it rain in order to sell their umbrellas, but they are not related to the incident in any way.
- Chew Toy: Seems to have been reduced to this. In all the games they have appeared in, the player characters give them a hard beating simply because they happen to be there.
- Cool Big Sis: They play this role to Shou apparently because after they are defeated, Shou goes to fight against the heroes in order to avenge them.
- Curtains Match the Window: Their hair and eyes are the same black color.
- Expy: Of Letty Whiterock. They both are Stage 1 bosses, act as the Cool Big Sibling for a Stage 2 boss and get blamed by the player character for their respective games' incidents because of their similar powers.
- Leitmotif: "Crimson Boots"
, which was arranged into "The Water Dyed in Crimson ~ DYE" for Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle. - Making a Splash: They are a rain youkai, and accordingly use rain themed attacks.
- Nice Guy:
Word of God reveals that they don't like making rain because water messes their hair and clothes, but only does it when people (such as Shou) ask them to.
Shou Amanomori
- Walking Lubricant
- Shou Amanomori"So it's you! You're the one who was really mean to Jun!"
A slug-youkai with the ability to induce rain, which they do so by staying close to rain youkai. They fight against the heroes in order to avenge their friend Jun and get defeated.
- Animal Motifs: Slugs. They have slug antennae and if someone throws salt on them they'll get a little bigger, but then they'll die. Because they're a Nature Spirit, they'll come back.
- Bratty Half-Pint: According to Word of God.
- Butt-Monkey: They try to avenge their friend and end up losing the battle, humiliated. They even get some salt thrown on them. And in Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle it happens again and this time it's not salt, but Shion eats some of their lifespan!
- Curtains Match the Window: Their hair and eyes are the same green color.
- Expy: Of Cirno. They are a Butt-Monkey, they are a Stage 2 boss and even Word of God treats them as a moron.
- Leitmotif: "Slimy Umisoumen ~ Act the FOOL HAHAHA", which received the arrangement "Act the Fool ~ HAHAHA" in Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle.
- Roaring Rampage of Revenge: The reason they attack the heroes is to avenge Jun's defeat. This becomes particularly amusing in Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle, as it's completely possible for the protagonists to not even fight Jun as a Neutral Stage 1 boss, only to run into Shou, who still blames them regardless."So stop already, I'll get revenge for Jun!"
Lumen Celeritas
- Carelessly Converging Ray of Sunshine
- Lumen Celeritas"Don't call me an idiot before I even appear! Only idiots like roasted eel, after all!"
A sunlight youkai. Because cloudy weather is problematic for them, they go to search for the culprit, but bumps into the heroes, who quickly defeat them.
- Ax-Crazy: EX-Lumen. As a sunlight youkai, they become insanely powerful if they absorb moonlight.
- Beware the Silly Ones: They are very very silly, both in danmaku and general demeanor. They're also an Extra Boss and become dangerous if they absorb moonlight.
- Came Back Strong: As the Extra midboss in Earthen Miraculous Sword.
- Elemental Powers: They are a youkai of sunlight after all.
- Expy: Of Utsuho Reiuji. They have a ditzy and dumb personality, along with overpowered control over light and they provoked an incident that created a lot of spirits.
- Expecting Someone Taller: Fumikado is rather disappointed to see that this airheaded and plain youkai is one of the "Three Lights".
- Hero of Another Story: According to Word of God. They're famed as one of the "Three Lights", and resolved a certain incident a long time ago.
- Idiot Hero: In the Secret Team routes, they're outright said to have the "looks of a hero, mind of a moron".
- Just to drive it home, one of Lumen's seals in ''Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle" literally reads "Idiot Hero".
- Inelegant Blubbering: During the Extra Stage in Earthen Miraculous Sword, after they absorb moonlight and become Ax-Crazy."Ehehehehehe. Pshooooommm☆☆♪"
- Karma Houdini: They are never punished for being the Unwitting Instigator of Doom who provoked the events of Reactivate Majestical Imperial. At least until Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle.
- Leitmotif: "Prismic Accelerator", arranged into "Prismic Drive" for Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle.
- Light 'em Up: Uses a number of light-themed attacks.
- Meaningful Name: Lumen is the Latin word for light, and Celeritas is the Latin word for speed. Lumen's name literally means "Speed of light"
- Sealed Evil in a Can: Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle reveals that their body is now covered in more talismans than before in order to avoid another rampage destruction caused by absorbing moonlight.
- Person of Mass Destruction: EX Lumen.
- Unwitting Instigator of Doom: As EX-Lumen, they attacked the Mugenri Barrier during Earthen Miraculous Sword, causing it to weaken. This causes Tenkai to make a hole in the barrier For the Lulz and resulting in the Harujion sprouting out of control and creating Shion.
- Wave-Motion Gun: Their "Blitz Spark" in the Extra stage. It's an attack that covers almost the entire screen, leaving very little room to dodge it.
Hibaru Kokutenshi
- Cheerful Debt Collecter
- Hibaru Kokutenshi"If you're in need of money, you can turn to our financing company for help!"
A skylark youkai who works in a financing company in Mugenri called "Gappori".
- Ambiguous Situation: They are implied to have much more importance in the overarching plot that is thought, given that the Secret Team's route in BPoHC has Suzumi probe their memory and discover something incredibly shocking to both Hamee and Ardey which they decide keep to themselves, and that they bear a Bird's Name alongside other important characters in the series. Notably, they have also been stated to have past interactions with Tsugumi, another deceptively-important Bird's Name-bearer, in which they almost left Tsugumi for dead in some manner.
- Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: They try to advertise themself and offer loans, but after the heroes reject them they show their true colors and try to force them.
- In ''Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle", dialogue reveals they had some past connection with Tsugumi, and an encounter where Hibaru left them for dead.
- Catchphrase: "Ri-to-ru, ri-to-ru~"
- Expy: Of Aya Shameimaru. Both are avian youkai (Aya is a crow tengu, Hibaru is a skylark youkai), are devoted for their jobs, work for a company and because they've lived for long, they're quite whimsical.
- Eyes Do Not Belong There: What's with those wings?
- Honest Corporate Executive: What they claim to be.
- Corrupt Corporate Executive: What they really are.
- Insane Troll Logic: They try to offer loans to Tsubakura and Yabusame, but since they live in the shrine, they don't need money. What do they do? Attack them so they they would go to the hospital and ask for loans.
- "Just So" Story: According to their profile, Hibaru is the reason the Sun is in the sky. The Sun used to be down on the land, and borrowed money from Hibaru. As the loan accumulated interest, the Sun fled high into the sky to get out of paying Hibaru back. Ever since, Hibaru takes flight and chirps towards the Sun every day in a bid to demand payment, but no one knows whether the Sun can hear them.
- Leitmotif: "Dime-a-Dozen Moneymaker" and its arrangement "Abandoning 1,000 Ryo, Eyes on 10,000 Ryo ~ MONEY GAME" from Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle.
Sukune Katano
- Pure and Genius Haniwa
- Sukune Katano"Y'noticed a somethin' good, nyo! This is one o' my best creations, gyuu~♪"
A haniwa youkai who is a famous craftsman. They can mold anything into a particular shape. Because of this, they become Yaorochi’s pawn during the events of Earthen Miraculous Sword.
- Accent Adaptation: As an attempt to render their multiple Verbal Tic into English, fan translations usually give Sukune a mild Southern drawl, droppin' letters here an' there.
- Attack Drones: Their haniwas.
- Berserk Button: Art is serious business for them, so don’t insult it. Also, don’t make fun of their haniwa-shaped house. Also, bad smells."I don't stink, nya! I don't, nya!"
- The Cameo: They, along with Sese, appear in Book of the Cafe on the New Game Bread recipe.
- Child Prodigy: Implied. They're hinted at being a very young youkai in BPoHC, yet they've built the Katano studio, the Gloomy Sea Bridge and part of Devanagara by themselves.
- In Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle's Haze Extra Yago Ametsukana, a craftsman god asks them to be their successor. Sukune turns them down, preferring to become a god on their own merits.
- Creating Life: Their greatest ambition is to store spirits into their creations. Yaorochi takes advantage of it and convinces them to collaborate with them.
- Creepy Doll: Their haniwas are usually depicted as more cute than creepy in official art.
- The Ditz: However, they're really more gullible than outright stupid.
- Doppleganger Attack: For their attack Creation "Haniwa Duplication", they generate a clay copy of themself.

- Hyperspace Arsenal: Their haniwas.
- Kindhearted Simpleton: Sukune is dumb and an airhead, but they're also well-meaning and the friendliest character in the series.
- Innocently Insensitive: They have their moments. For example when they insult Kuroji and ask if they still have money problems or inviting Yaorochi to have some sake, who is angsting after their beloved sword was transformed into a bottle-opener.
- Leitmotif:
- Their main theme is "Haniwa Sumo ~ End of Immolation". It was arranged into "Super Haniwa ~ NEXT FORM!!" for Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle.
- "Only in Beige, Only in Earnest", together with Yaorochi in Reactivate Majestical Imperial.
- Their main theme is "Haniwa Sumo ~ End of Immolation"
- The Napoleon: Very outgoing and energetic, and also unusually short for their age.
- Odd Friendship: While it's hard to see how they have anything in common with Yaorochi, both have a void in their hearts and they seem to look for each other.
- Promoted to Playable:
- Joins with Yaorochi in RMI to form the playable Bottle Opener Team. They set out to investigate the incident after failing to get the Senri Shrine priests to do so.
- Teams up with Sese and Tenkai in BPoHC to go treasure hunting.
- Recurring Boss: Shows up for all of stage 5, then doesn't come back until Stage 6 as a midboss.
- True Craftsman: Their main goal in life is to refine their artistic abilities until they become this.
- Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Has the honor of instigating the incidents of two consecutive games; They first construct the clay Tasouken on their own merits, going against Saragimaru's wishes, which causes the events EMS, and then they construct a clay model of the Taira clan's Saeda flute for Iyozane and Fumikado, who use it to funnel the spirits of the Mugenri Barrier as a means achieving Fumikado's goal, starting RMI. This technically means that Sukune had a hand in creating Shion.
- Unwitting Pawn: To the Adagumo siblings.
- And accidentally becomes their Spanner in the Works too!
- Verbal Tic: Because they extend their creativity to everything, even to their speech, Sukune ends most of their sentences with "chu", "gyah" and "nyo".
Adagumo no Yaorochi
- Descendant of Orochi
- Adagumo no Yaorochi"Behold! This sword's name is "Tasouken"!"
A youkai born from Yamata no Orochi's severed arm that has an obsession with the Tasouken sword (also known as the Sword of Kusanagi) and has searched it for centuries, until they finally found it. Their goal in Earthen Miraculous Sword is to restore the Tasouken into its former glory, causing the incident.
They're serious and short-tempered and are always ready to slash anyone who annoys them. Despite that, they have an Odd Friendship with the laid-back Sukune.
- The Ace: Among the playable characters, Yaorochi is the most experienced and most skilled fighter.

- Bystander Syndrome: In Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle.
- Dark and Troubled Past: They and their seven siblings took revenge on those who murdered Yamata no Orochi's clan. Because Yaorochi was born from Orochi's severed arm, they became obsessed with the Tasouken, abandoning their siblings and chased after said sword for centuries. After finding it, they were disappointed and isolated themself for years until Saragimaru's intervention and the events of Earthen Miraculous Sword.
- Difficult, but Awesome: When they became a playable character. They did bring a sword to a danmaku fight, after all.

- Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep": With the exception of Saragimaru, every character calls them Orochin. Even Sukune, their closest friend, rarely calls them by their name.

- Final Boss: Of Earthen Miraculous Sword.
- Freudian Excuse: They were born from Orochi’s severed arm, and because of it they have a fixation with the Tasouken.
- Heterosexual Life-Partners: With Sukune.
- Hot-Blooded: Although Yaorochi aims to look dignified, they jump at conclusions very quickly, and as soon as their emotions run high or they detect someone misbehaving, they'll draw their sword. In the same vein, Yaorochi is fast to apologize and admit their mistakes if they believe they've done wrong, though they're prone to sulking.
- I Lied: Tricks Sukune and Yabusame into believing that they are a holy servant. While Sukune never finds out, Yabusame does and we have this conversation:Yaorochi: I am Adagumo no Yaorochi, a holy servant.Yabusame: A holy servant? ...So you're like a priest or something?Yaorochi: That's a lie, though.Yabusame: Huh?Yaorochi: You naïvely accept whatever information your enemy gives you... It seems you're just as much of a simpleton as Sukune.Yabusame: H-how mean... and here, Yabusame believed you!

- Samurai Ponytail: Is a bushido like character and has a ponytail that fits their character.
- Scarf of Asskicking:
And how! - The Stoic: They talk in a calm and collected tone.
- Not So Stoic: They lose all composure in the endings of Earthen Miraculous Sword, after finding out that Sukune's clay replica of the Tasouken is a sword-shaped bottle opener. It continues in Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle, where both armies ask them to join the battles, and they become paranoid that they're both actually after the Tasouken.
- Tsundere: According to Shion, at least. When Yabusame and Tsubakura mention how good-looking they are, they respond as coldly as usual, only for Shion to point out they're secretly happy.
- Soul Jar: Attempted to use a clay vessel to transfer the essence of the rusted Tasouken, but failed because Poor Communication Kills.
- Unskilled, but Strong: Compared to their sibling, who relies on several sword techniques and fast reflexes to overcome their opponent, Yaorochi simply attacks head on with everything they've got, simply using their Cool Sword as a Wave-Motion Gun. They're still pretty skilled though.
- It's even confirmed by Word of God.

Tasouken (Unmarked Spoilers)
- Tasouken"...Prove your power."
Yaorochi's sword, which they have been obsessing over. It is also the legendary Kusanagi no Tsurugi... and a sword-shaped bottle opener.
- Brought Down to Badass: Because the Kusanagi no Tsurugi's essence was transferred into a bottle opener rather than a proper sword, its full power could not be drawn... and yet the power that did get drawn was still enough to produce a multilayered, complex Spell Card lasting over three and a half minutes.
- Hold the Line: Its fight consists entirely of a three and a half minute survival Spell Card that you must outlast with however many lives the petal gauge granted you.
- Legendary Weapon: It may be a sword-shaped bottle opener, but Yaorochi transferred the essence of the Kusanagi no Tsurugi, one of the Imperial Regalia of Japan, into it.
- Leitmotif: "A Single Glimmer". In fact, Tasouken's survival Spell Card (which is also named "A Single Glimmer") is coordinated with the structure and duration of this theme.
- Public Domain Artifact: Tasouken is actually the Kusanagi no Tsurugi, which represents the virtue of courage and is one of the three Imperial Regalia of Japan; sacred artifacts that only the Emperor of Japan and certain high-ranking priests are allowed to see. The Kusanagi no Tsurugi in particular, however, is widely believed to have gone missing.
- Sequential Boss: Its Spell Card is split into six phases.
- Swords to Plowshares: Subverted. It's a legendary sword whose essence was transferred to a sword-shaped bottle opener rather than an actual sword, stunting its power, but Yaorochi continues to use it as a sword and the power that can still be drawn from it is nothing to shake a stick at.
- True Final Boss: If you have at least three petals filled out on the flower gauge upon defeating Yaorochi, the Tasouken itself tells you to "prove your power" and subjects you to a lengthy, complex survival Spell Card. The amount of filled petals determines how many lives you get. You get the good ending even if you lose here, but if you survive, you get additional dialogue.
Adagumo no Saragimaru
- Final Eye
- Adagumo no Saragimaru"Those who dare to interfere with Yaorochi-sama's happiness, I'll never forgive them..."
A youkai born from Yamata no Orochi's severed eye and Yaorochi's younger sibling. Straightforward and honest, Saragimaru is devoted to secretly protect Yaorochi, who ignores them because of their fixation with the Tasouken. They are the one who indirectly provoked the incident in Earthen Miraculous Sword, by asking Sukune to create a clay replica of the Tasouken. Since Reactivate Majestical Imperial, Saragimaru works as Kuroji's unwilling servant.
- Animal Motifs: As their sibling, snakes.
- Batman Gambit: They requested Sukune to create a replica of the Tasouken in order to make Yaorochi happy, even knowing that restoring the sword would be no good.
- Beleaguered Assistant / Servile Snarker: Doesn't really hesitate referring to Kuroji as a "evil scoundrel" right in front of them.Fumikado: Eh? And who're you?Saragimaru: Behold! The most evil, cunning, and treacherous person you'll ever meet, who deceives even crying children: the Brute Emperor, Kuroji Shitodo-samaaaa!!Saragimaru: Decided t' blow off some steam.
- Berserk Button: Don’t mess with their beloved "Yaorochi-sama". They only attacks the heroes because they defeated Yaorochi.
- Big Little Sister: More mature than Yaorochi.
- Big Sister Instinct: The entire conflict from Earthen Miraculous Sword stems from Saragimaru's desire to protect Yaorochi as effectively as possible, which unfortunately involves restoring the Tasouken, and threatening to kill the heroes for defeating Yaorochi. Towards the end, however, Saragimaru recognizes that Yaorochi is happy with the sword, no matter how it looks like. Then in Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle, after learning that both armies are wanting Yaorochi to fight for them, they sneak out of the Shitodo house to go protect them.
- Blood Knight: Averted. Despite their aggressive attitude, they're not really interested in battles.
- Butt-Monkey: Due to their straightforward and simple personality, they often get made fun of or bullied. And let's not go into being Kuroji's unwilling assistant.
- The Comically Serious: Their dialogue with Yabusame, and to a lesser extent with Tsubakura. The player character is drunk due to the events of the main game's ending, and the dialogue contrasts their antics with Saragimaru's straightforwardness:Yabusame: Haeh?! No waaay! Ah ain't drunk!Saragimaru: Yes, of course not, clearly. That aside, my name is Adagumo no Saragimaru...Yabusame: Hoho... yeh, an' my name's Yabusame no Salami-maru.Saragimaru: Oh, this is hopeless. I had intended to eliminate all those who would sully Master Yaorochi's happiness, but...
- Cute Little Fangs: Noticeable in Reactivate Majestical Imperial.
- Dark and Troubled Past: They and their seven siblings took revenge in those who murdered Yamata no Orochi under Yaorochi's command. Since they were the weakest of them, they got in lots of quarrels with Yaorochi and was pointlessly slashed, severing their relationship. Centuries later, all the siblings died, so they are devoted to Yaorochi, who only cares about the Tasouken. Ouch.
- Death of a Thousand Cuts: Their main attack Transmigration "Eye of Hihayahi".
- Difficult, but Awesome: When they became a playable character.
- In Reactivate Majestical Imperial they're slow and have an awkward shottype to use, but their wide range gives them great control over the stages, and they can do very strong damage if they're able to shotgun and shoot close to bosses.
- Dogged Nice Girl: According to Shion, Saragimaru likes devoting themself to others.
- Dual Boss: With Kuroji in Reactivate Majestical Imperial
- Dual Wielding: Their weapons are a katana and a spear.
- Embarrassing Nickname: Yabusame calls them "Salami".
- Everything's Better with Rainbows: Their spell card Divine Grandson "Ladder Built Between Clouds [Rainbow]".
- Expy: Of Youmu Konpaku. They have a youthful appearance, use Dual Wielding blades, are bullied by the other characters and have a straightforward personality. And they're the Beleaguered Assistant of a character who uses a hat with a triangular headpiece.
- Fragile Speedster: It allows them to move at Super-Speed at all times, but at the cost of defense.
- Gender-Blender Name: In Japan, names ending with the suffix "-maru" are usually boy's names. Of course, we don't know what Saragimaru's gender is.
- Hidden Depths: Unlike their sibling’s polite speech, Saragimaru has a rather vulgar and provocative speech pattern, but they have a hidden polite side.
- Hypercompetent Sidekick: To Kuroji, to the point they find Saragimaru more helpful than Aoji and Hooaka are.
- I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: They requested Sukune to make Yaorochi a new Tasouken, despite knowing it would be no good.
- Incest Subtext: Displays some rather... disturbing behavior when talking about their sibling."No one is higher than Yaorochi-sama!"
- Leitmotif:
- Their main theme is "Mono Eye ~ Ironic FATE". In Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle, it received an arrangement, "Opened Eye ~ Mono EYE".
- "Keep the History" together with Kuroji in Reactivate Majestical Imperial.
- Their main theme is "Mono Eye ~ Ironic FATE"
- Little Bit Beastly: Snake tail, completed with fangs and a snake tongue.
- Love Hurts: They love and cares for their older sibling, who is too obsessed with the Tasouken to notice.
- Mysterious Protector: To Yaorochi.
- No-Sell: Like all Extra bosses, they're unaffected by Bombs.
- Only Sane Man: According to Word of God.
- Orochi: Much like their sibling, this is their species, albeit Saragimaru seems to only show only of their tails.
- Really 700 Years Old: They look like they are in in their early teens, but they are actually over 2500 years old.
- Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Explicitly stated to be their ultimate goal in the Extra Stage of Earthen Miraculous Sword. They want to kill the heroes for stopping the sword ritual and thus ruining Yaorochi's happiness.
- Sibling Yin-Yang: Compared to Yaorochi, they're much more calm and collected.
- Shaping Your Attacks: Like their sibling, some of their spell cards shoot blasts shaped like snakes.
- Stalker with a Crush: Has stalked Yaorochi since they ran away from their siblings in order to retrieve the Tasouken.
- Stronger Sibling: They are strong enough to be the Extra Boss in Earthen Miraculous Sword. However, in Reactivate Majestical Imperial they appear as Stage 4 boss together with Kuroji, their playable shot type has horrible stats and a weak offense, and Kuroji soon realizes that Saragimaru is sensible to the cold and has a weak stamina. Because snakes dislike winter. The trope is decidedly subverted by the time of Brilliant Pagoda or Haze Castle, where Yaorochi reprises their role as a Final Boss while Saragimaru remains demoted to Stage 4 boss despite no longer being weakened by the cold.
- Stockholm Syndrome: Despite Yaorochi being a distant jerk to all their siblings in the past, Saragimaru was still extremely distraught when Yarochi abandoned them. Also, despite being older, wiser and more powerful, they become Kuroji's unwilling subordinate, who treats them much like crap.
- Sword Lines: Like their sibling.
- Vitriolic Best Buds: With Kuroji, when Saragimaru isn't complaining about being an unwilling servant.
