A list of characters from the manga/anime
Sora No Otoshimono. Naturally, spoilers ahoy.
Humans
Mundane human beings living in the town of Sorami, somewhere in Japan. They are blissfully unaware of the presence of Synapse hanging over their heads (save for one guy)...until the Angeloids made their presence known.
Tomoki Sakurai
The local pervert and all-around
Unlucky Everydude. Lives alone in his home in Sorami Town.
Sohara Mitsuki
Tomoki's childhood friend who packs a mean karate chop. Lives next door from Tomoki.
- Boobs of Steel: She has the biggest breasts in the series (except possibly Astraea, who is said to rival her) and is the strongest human female yet shown (as proven in the "sumo" tournament).
- Clingy Jealous Girl: She doesn't seem too fond of Tomoki showing interest in other girls.
- Covert Pervert: If the first episode of Forte didn't show it.
- Distaff Counterpart: Towards Tomoki's father, at least in that they keep their respective Sakurai in line with karate chops. He even ships Sohara and Tomoki together because of it.
- Gag Boobs: One chapter implies that they are the largest in town and still getting larger.
- Megaton Karate Chop: Triggered via perversion.
- Ms. Fanservice: Often because she's the designated female Butt Monkey.
Eishirou Sugata
The head of New Continent Discovery club in Tomoki's school. An all-around smart guy who lives in the wilderness.
Mikako Satsukitane
The local
Yakuza Princess, whose sadistic streak can match any psychopath. Also the student council president.
Tomoki's Grandfather
An old man who raised Tomoki, and is very influential in his decisions... not a good way, mostly.
Voiced by: Hiroshi Iwasaki (JP), Bill Flynn (EN)
Zero
A recurring character who comes every time Mikako's folks open up a fair.
Tomoyo Sakurai
Tomoki's mom. She and Tomoki's dad left for a world trip when Tomoki turned 10.
- Anything That Moves: Though she did marry Tomoki's dad, perversion for busty women is passed down through her side of the family. Including her.
Angeloids
Combat-oriented gynoids created by Synapse. They have a
Theme Naming derived from Greek mythology, down to their weapons.
Ikaros
The first Angeloid known in the series. Her formal designation is
Type Alpha, Strategic Battle-class Angeloid
- Absolute Cleavage
- The Ace: she was Synapse's greatest weapon.
- Cry Cute
- Evil Twin: Tactical Angeloid Type-Theta, Ikaros Melan.
- Significant Green-Eyed Redhead
- Heroic Sacrifice: She took a hit from Melan's Apollon, which the Master claimed was even more powerful than her own and surrounded both her and Melan with her Aegis barrier to keep Nymph, Astrea, and an injured Tomoki from getting hurt. The damage from this was so great, she lost the majority of her limbs, and her entire system was knocked off line.
- Idiot Hair: It seems to warn her when Tomoki is in danger.
- Literal Genie
- Named Weapons: She has the most so far. Artemis, Apollon (her bow, whose power is said to be enough to annihilate a country), Aegis, and Hephaestus. The anime gave her one more weapon, Uranus System, a giant cloaked battleship/Mobile Armor.
- Person of Mass Destruction: There's a reason that Synapse wants their Lost Property back.
- Red Baron: She is nicknamed The Uranus Queen.
- Rei Ayanami Expy
- Rose-Haired Girl
- Significant Green-Eyed Redhead
- Super Drowning Skills: Subverted in that she can't swim due to her wings being really heavy when wet, but she can't drown either. Nor does oceanic pressure seem to affect her.
- Turned Against Their Masters
- Winged Humanoid
Nymph
The first Angeloid sent from Synapse to kill Tomoki, although she spent more time harassing him and Ikaros. Her formal designation is
Type Beta, Electronic Warfare Angeloid.
- A-Cup Angst: Made worse by the fact that her Love Interest is a devout fan of breasts.
- Break the Cutie: She gets stomped and beaten on quite a bit early on.
- Crippling Overspecialization: As noted by the Master, there's not much use for an electronic warfare type against underdeveloped downers.
- She's quite effective against Synapse's own tech, once Nymph evolves her abilities a bit, as shown in chapter 55 when she completely decimates an army of higher powered, more advanced Angeloids.
- Curtains Match the Window
- Fantastic Racism: Has an extremely low opinion of "bugs", at least at first.
- Heel Face Turn: While she was never overtly evil, she was working under the orders of her master, who treated her like absolute garbage. Then comes Tomoki and his friends who treat her really well without any ulterior motives.
- Named Weapons: Not a weapon per se. She had the Fundamental Particle Jamming System, Aphrodite.
- Reality Warper: Ikaros can affect reality with her cards, but Nymph can hack reality.
- Shana Clone: Not the female lead (since there isn't one), but she fits the rest of the archetype.
- Token Mini-Moe: Doomed to be eternally Pettanko at an old age judging from a age device in an extra chapter.
- Took a Level in Badass: Turns out that all First gen Angeloids have the Pandora system. She activates it in chapter 55 and is able to decimate an army of later gen Angeloids. Too bad she can't handle her attack's energy output.
- Turned Against Their Masters: Took a group effort to break her chain.
- Winged Humanoid
- The Worf Effect: She got counter-hacked while fighting Zeta, while she is supposed to be the Angeloid made for such warfare.
- You Gotta Have Blue Hair
Harpy
The second Angeloid(s) sent from Synapse to kill Tomoki, although they are quickly relegated to guard duty. Their formal designation is
Type Gamma, Ambush-purpose Angeloid.
Astraea
The third Angeloid sent from Synapse, with the express purpose of killing Tomoki. Her formal designation is
Type Delta, Regional Conflict Angeloid.
- Absolute Cleavage
- Achilles Heel: She has no long-range attacks.
- BFS: Chrysaor can turn into this.
- Big Eater: Can eat a lot of food, and in at least one instance, gets her in trouble as well (when she eats Ikaros' watermelons with Nymph, who then promptly blamed Astraea).
- Boobs of Steel: While she's not as powerful as Ikaros all-around, she is stronger in a purely physical sense, and her rack speaks for itself.
- Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass
- The Ditz
- Genius Ditz: She's actually fairly clever. (Of course, being an idiot, she nearly always misapplies this, leading to a lot of Rube Goldberg plots that don't actually work.)
- Dumb Blonde
- Extreme Omnivore: Rabbit pellets and fish bait are yummy to Astraea.
- Lightning Bruiser: She is the strongest and fastest of the first-generation Angeloids.
- Named Weapons: Photonic Oscillation Blade Chrysaor and Aegis-L (a version of Ikaros' Aegis that can only guard the front).
- Poke the Poodle: Some of her attempts to kill Tomoki fall under this, such as trying to poison him with a laxative.
- Too Dumb to Live: Doesn't know how to obtain food, so she'll gobble up whatever's available when hungry, including rabbit pellets and fish bait (still on the line!).
- This is explained in both the manga and the anime as the main three have three things: Emotion, Power and Intelligence. Each can only have 2 as the focus which makes the last one the weakest. Ikaros lacks emotion but is a powerhouse and intelligent although naive, Nymph lacks the strength but compensates with her reality hacking abilities and is easily susceptible to emotion, and Astraea is the dumbest but is nearly as powerful as Ikaros and has a better range of emotions than Ikaros and Nymph combined.
- Training Montage: She had one during the credits of the forth episode in Forte.
- Turned Against Their Masters: By breaking her chain with her bare hands when it took the combined efforts of everybody that had to break Nymph's chain earlier.
- Unskilled, but Strong: "The reason I didn't add any processing capabilities to Delta...is because she doesn't need any."
- Winged Humanoid
Chaos
The first of the second-generation Angeloid, and also sent to Sorami town to kill Tomoki. Looks can be totally deceiving with her. Her formal designation is simply
Second-Generation Angeloid, Type Epsilon.
Zeta/Hiyori Kazane
A second-generation Angeloid who appears in Sorami town when it was beset by extremely low air pressure. She has no known formal designation.
She is actually Hiyori Kazane, one of Tomoki's friends who happened to be an avatar of a denizen of Synapse.
Siren
A second-generation Angeloid which are sent to ambush Tomoki. Her formal designation is
Type Eta, Underwater Combat Angeloid.
Oregano
A generic medical specialist Angeloid who follows Sugata back from a dive game.
Synapse
A few floating islands in the sky, which happens to stop over Sorami town at the time being. Their denizens are
Winged Humanoid race called Angels, and they possessed vastly advanced technology compared to humanity.
Master of Synapse
The aptly named ruler of Synapse. Has a deep disdain for humanity, and creates Angeloids as his playthings...well, humans are too, by extension.
Daedalus
A pro-human scientist who hides in Synapse. Considers Ikaros, Nymph, and Astraea to be her daughters, as she created them.
