Minor Characters
Gordy
A fat kid.
- Big Eater: Is shown to have an entire feast on his desk during class, and is corrupted by the Phoenix Mage for being told to wait until lunch.
- Fat Idiot: His reaction to seeing an ominous glowing feather approaching him? Eat it.
- The Hyena: Is shown to be laughing maniacally most of the time.
- Starter Villain: The first of the Phoenix Mage's targets for Akumatization.
Maximillian Russell
Max's father, who does nothing but watch an unnamed sitcom all day.
- Abusive Parents: Apart from the neglect mentioned below, is more than willing to hit his kids for interrupting his sitcom.
- Adults Are Useless: The biggest offender in the entire story.
- Bald of Evil: Is bald and one of the worst characters seen so far.
- Cloud Cuckoo Lander: How else do you describe a grown adult who spends his whole life in bed watching a childish sitcom?
- Contrasting Sequel Antagonist: Is nowhere near as much a threat as Gabriel Agreste/Hawkmoth as an evil parent. However, he is a far less deep or likeable individual, being a Psychopathic Manchild who ignores his children just to waste his time watching The Violence Channel.
- Don't Make Me Take My Belt Off!: Threatens Max with this for interrupting his sitcom.
- Driven to Suicide: Upon being told (falsely) that he'd have to wait a week until his sitcom would be back, he is shown to be perfectly willing to do so.
- Evil Counterpart: To Marvin. While Marvin is a genuinely loving father and caretaker to both of his adopted children, Maximillian cares more for his sitcom than his three biological children, and even threatens anyone who comes between them and his sitcom.
- Expy: Of Bowser from SuperMarioLogan.
- Hate Sink: Given everything listed and the fact that he doesn't even check on his daughter who was trapped in a box for a week finally returning to him.

- Lazy Bum: Wouldn't even lift a finger even when his family was at a serious risk of being evicted.
- Parental Neglect: Spends most of the day watching his sitcom.
- Psychopathic Manchild: A textbook example.
Zach and Connor Russell
Zach and Connor, Max's younger brothers.

- Bratty Half-Pint: Both are constantly seen fighting.
Lara Russell
Max's mother, who works abroad.
- Married to the Job: Puts her work at such an importance that she mails her 15 year old daughter in a box halfway across America rather than spend time getting bus/plane tickets.
- Parental Neglect: Is no better than even her husband in this regard.
- Salaryman: Were this an anime she'd follow this trope to a T. From what we know she's a typical office worker with big ambitions.
- Workaholic: Spends most of her time working abroad and it's implied she hasn't seen her children in a long time.
'Lil Einstein
A popular kid at Waterloo High.
- Catchphrase: "Guys! Guys! Guys!" Whenever he barges in.

- Expy: His portrayal was based off of Prince Philip's from the 2021 HBO Max series The Prince.
- The Klutz: Trips and falls on an extremely short flight of stairs, leading to him being dragged off by PR.
- Mayor Pain: As a result of his senile character in the face of the Phoenix Mages attack and other issues present in the town.
- Scatterbrained Senior: Forgets why he's at the meeting midway through and didn't bother to memorize his lines.
- Speech Impediment: His constant stuttering, to the point of becoming The Unintelligible.
- Suspiciously Similar Substitute: To Mayor André Bourgeois from the original cartoon, only less competent.
- The Unintelligible: Stutters enough to the point of being this.
Dr. Anthony Fauci
The School Nurse at Waterloo High.
- Compulsive Liar: One moment he says not to use ice packs, calling them useless. The next, he forces every student in the school to use them until they run out.
- Doctor's Orders: Tries to use his position to put all of Waterloo High on lockdown.
- I Lied: Says that it was the student's fault by being unhygenic that Brad Roy died of illness, even though he already had four comorbidity to begin with. Shortly after, he reveals he lied and that the Principal was killed by a gunshot wound.

- Mad Doctor: Given his paranoia and controlling tendencies shown.
- Quarantine with Extreme Prejudice: His plan to deal with the monster attacks.
- School Nurse: A rare male example.
- Vile Villain, Laughable Lackey: Is a subordinate to both Brad Roy and Dr. Cho. However, he isn't nearly as reprehensible as either of them and simply concocts harebrained schemes to aid them in control.
Director D.
An FBI agent stationed in Wincestre.
- Inspector Javert: Given the Anti-Superhero act, he's naturally averse to the idea of Team Arctic, regardless of their intent.
- Only Sane Man: At least when compared to Dr. Fauci and Mayor Biden.
- Superhero Paradox: Frequently discusses how the existence of heroes is frequently what leads to villains rising and attacking in the first place.

The history teacher.- Adults Are Useless: Downplayed, seeing as he's at least trying.

Kiku's overbearing father.
- Catchphrase: "DUMB! DUMB! DUMB! YOU DUMB!"
- Education Mama: Kiku sees him as this.

Kwamis
General

- The Four Gods: The central four that the Myth Arc follows our heroes and villains trying to collect. The difference here is the blue dragon and red bird swapped colors, and both are in the hands of the villains, sadly.
Tundraa
The Arctic Fox Miraculous.
- Contrasting Sequel Main Character: Whereas Tikki was upbeat and supportive, Tundraa is far more reluctant and unwilling to be a hero.
