Anchors

5 Nights At Freddy's

This is outdated according to the actual lore of the franchise

    Mike Schmidt 
The anchor to Five Nights at Freddy's. Mike has managed to get the animatronics to become Friendly Enemies. His job is now less about surviving, and more about dealing with the antics of the animatronics.

    Jeremy Fitzgerald 
The anchor to Five Nights at Freddy's 2, a backwards expansion that Mike couldn't anchor.
  • Action Survivor: Let's face it, you don't make it to the end of a Freddy's loop without some serious skills.
  • Unlucky Everydude: At one point, he gets put on trial in the Ace Attorney universe. Thankfully, he had Phoenix Wright as a lawyer.

.hack

    Aura 
An A.I. created to serve the same function as a daughter to the creator of The World, Aura is a being whose existence is practically required to keep things running smoothly even without her status as Anchor. Unfortunately, her tenancies of working in the background have resulted in the other Loopers of her branch not realizing her identity as the Anchor, and she has never gone out of her way to let them know.
—-
  • A God Am I: Aura takes her role as goddess of The World a bit more seriously than she perhaps should, ever since Saraswati made the whole situation sound much more dire than it actually is during her introduction to the Loops.
  • A God I Am Not: Later, Aura has acknowledged from the moment that she first interacted with her local Admin that she is nothing special in comparison, and uses her title solely as a reason why she needs to work as hard as she does to keep things running smoothly in her particular branch.
  • Hidden in Plain Sight: She has never gone out of her way to hide the fact that she's the Anchor, not does she particularly care whether or not that fact is figured out. Everybody else just keeps over looking her despite the fact that she's the obvious choice.
  • Lost in a Crowd: The reason that nobody has figured out that she's the Anchor is because there are so many people playing the game and they all focus on them as possible candidates.
  • Not-So-Imaginary Friend: Turns Harvey the bunny rabbit into this after Tsukasa plays the act out in front of her, much to the befuddlement of the other Looper.
  • Playful Hacker: While her status as the goddess of The World means that anything she does isn't quite hacking, there are still Loops where she ends up having to deal with computers without that particular capacity, and she manages to bend their programming to her will just as easily as she could with the benefits of being the goddess. A notable instance is when she Loops into Sword Art Online and modifies the Death Game programming to simply put the ones who die into the same coma that the Eight Phases do whenever they Data Drain somebody.
  • Squishy Wizard: Despite her status as goddess of The World making her possibly one of the most powerful AI Loopers in the multiverse, she is absolutely hopeless outside of a computerized setting, to the point where calling her one of the weaker Loopers in that regard wouldn't be exaggerating things too terribly much.

Ace Attorney

    Phoenix Wright 
The Anchor for the Ace Attorney Loops. As a lawyer, he fights to the bitter end. Seen as the multiverse's greatest lawyer.
  • Bunny-Ears Lawyer: He is looping, after all. Of course, as in baseline, compared to other lawyers in his branch, Phoenix is downright normal!
  • Butt-Monkey: Looping hasn't changed this much. Phone Guy suing Phoenix pretty much cements that Yggdrasil has a love/hate relationship with Phoenix.
  • Henshin Hero: An early Fused Loop with Hidari Shotaro and Philip turned Phoenix into the first Looper outside of the Kamen Rider branch to be a full-time Rider, specifically Kamen Rider Eternal.

Addams Family

    Gomez Addams 
Co-Anchor with his wife Morticia, the patriarch of the Addams family.
  • Happily Married: With Morticia, to the point Aphrodite broke the rules to get them Co-Anchors.

    Morticia Addams 
Co-Anchor with her husband Gomez, the matriarch of the Addams family.
  • Happily Married: With Gomez, the point Aphrodite broke the rules to get them Co-Anchors.

Asura's Wrath

    Mithra 
The Anchor for the Asura's Wrath Loops, and the daughter of Asura himself.

Attack on Titan

Due to the Crash, the Admins were incapable of establishing a good read on who would survive until the end of the Loops and also had to deal with numerous bugs plaguing the universe. As such, the Admins initiated a system known as Nebulous Anchoring, where multiple Anchor candidates were established as Co-Anchors: Armin Arlert, Eren Yeager and Mikasa Ackerman. Once the loop is fully expanded and the bugs hammered out, a permanent Anchor will be set.
    General 
  • Berserk Button: As in canon. Harm one, and the other two will kill you, even if it's in the next loop.
  • Freudian Trio: Much like in canon, Eren is The McCoy, Armin is The Kirk, and Mikasa is The Spock.
  • No Death Run: An odd example compared to other loops. Due to how they share Anchorship, if one of them dies, the loop crashes.
  • Sanity Slippage: All three of them are slowly succumbing to Sakura Syndrome. Carla Yeager was activated specifically to deter this.
  • Took a Level in Badass: The loop includes a Kaiju-Zombie war. To merely survive it consistently, the trio had to run through three fused loops to gain super powers.
  • True Companions: All three Refer to themselves as such, due to their Co-Anchor status and history together. They picked up the "nakama" term from the One Piece loops.

    Mikasa Ackerman 
The adoptive sister of Eren, and an extremely badass woman. Psychic swordswoman.
  • Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Managed to knock down Naruto, a member of the Original Seven. How? By weaponizing Tsundere.
  • Dual Wielding: Her first Fused loop was One Piece, and Mikasa naturally replaced the most badass character around: Roronoa Zoro. As such, she retained his signature discipline of Santoryu, and remains proficient in it.
  • Me's a Crowd: An in-universe Ur-Example of the Mikasa Glitch, when she ended up duplicating herself forty nine times. Then she took over the government.
  • Off with Her Head!: A particularly disquieting example. When Annie killed Eren in an early loop, Mikasa tracked her down and killed her next iteration.
  • Ship Sinking: Did try to be with Jean romantically, but couldn't handle his obsessiveness and jealousy. Has avoided pursuing him romantically since.
  • The Spock: Stoic and silent, but she has her moments.

    Armin Arlert 
Eren and Mikasa's close friend. Master strategist, Jedi-in-training, all around smart guy.
  • The Chessmaster: Having replaced Lelouch and Usopp in his formative loops, and with his own strategist tendencies, does become this time to time, notably having a hand in over throwing the government, and starting several cults centered around Eren.
  • Friendly Sniper: During his first fused loop in One Piece, he replaced Usopp and became proficient as a long range and extreme long range sniper, but due to the nature of Titan combat, rarely if ever uses these skills.
  • Hypnotic Eyes: His second fused loop netted him Lelouch's Geass Eye. He has shown no compunctions to using it.
  • The Kirk: Acts as intermediary between Eren and Mikasa, and as the leading strategist.
  • Laser Blade: A Jedi-in-training, with some minor abilities in the Force and light saber wielding.
  • Rage Against the Heavens: Admin-version. He's not happy to have replaced Usopp, and pesters Ganesha to let him replace Sanji.

    Eren Jaeger 
Marginal leader of the Anchors. Owner of impressive anger management issues.
  • Combat Medic: His first loop had him replace Tony Tony Chopper, though he remains incapable of using Chopper's transformations well. Considers himself just good with his skills. Manages to keep his mother alive for sometime, but can't save her.
  • Determinator: Subverted in typical Attack on Titan fashion. He spent an entire loop preparing to save his mothers life after dozens of loops where he failed, but still couldn't do it.
  • Frontier Doctor: Fits the broad archetype of a doctor who works without the usual supplies of a classical doctor, and is the best for miles.
  • The McCoy: Emotional and impulsive, though also very prone to violent rampages and bouts of psychosis. These have mostly mellowed out over the loops, thankfully.
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: With Jean when he started looping.
  • X-Ray Vision: Has a Byakugan courtesy of a Naruto fused. Typically relied upon for medical purposes.
  • You Wouldn't Like Me When I'm Angry!: His third fused loop landed him in the shoes of Bruce Banner. Let that sink in...

Avatarverse

    Sokka 
Beleaguered Anchor for the Avatar-section of his home Loop. Still can't bend, still doesn't need it.
  • Badass Normal: All Sokka needs is his boomerang and his space sword, and he can take on everything his home Loop will throw at him.
  • I Need a Freaking Drink: When he learns Toph has been replaced by a bright orange pony, he immediately starts thinking about alcohol.
  • Some Nutty Publicity Stunt: His usual way of dismissing loopers doing something that should not be possible in the Avatarverse or just flat out odd beings to their verse (i.e. when Applejack looped in as Toph) is to claim it's part of an Ember Island Play rehearsal. No matter how crazy it may seem to the non-loopers, it always works.

    Jinora 
Spiritualist anchor of the Era of the Five Nations, an accomplished airbender and very sweet girl.
  • Kid Sidekick: Very reluctantly forced into the role in the Korra, Hero of The South! variants.
  • Shipper on Deck: She ships Korra and Asami passionately. She also ships Bolin and Opal.

Battletech

    Kai Allard-Liao 
First Anchor of the Battletech Loops.
  • The Ace: Having long since gotten past his baseline self-confidence issues, he's quietly accepted that he's one of the two best MechWarriors in the Inner Sphere.
  • An Ice Person: Courtesy of having replaced Toshiro Hitsugaya in a Bleach loop.
  • Con Man: Aside from the below-mentioned skills, he also spent a loop working with the Leverage crew. And put his skills to work the very next loop spending decades screwing with Sosuke Aizen in ways he never had enough evidence to call him out on.
  • Cloak and Dagger: Decided to take a page from his father's book one loop, faked his death for espionage purposes, apprenticed to the assassin who killed Melissa Steiner and Salome Kell in baseline and betrayed him to the cops before he could do it again, just to take down him, Ryan Steiner, and Katherine Steiner-Davion, with the added bonus that the evidence in his faked death lead to his insane aunt Romano getting deposed.
  • Giant Mecha: One of the most skilled MechWarriors of his time.
    • Thanks to a multi-loop project by the scientific staff of Chaldea and some contributions from Victor, he now has a new personal BattleMech, Bai Long. Out of the 'Mechs the Battletech loopers received, his is the most similar to the Gundams the original frame was based on, with a mix of long and close range firepower and a sword.
  • Noodle Incident: Somehow managed to con his way into becoming head of Tombstone, Arizona's Non-Partisan Anti-Chinese League just before Wyatt Earp and his family arrived there. Despite being very obviously of Chinese descent. The only details we have are that he thought a lot more about the implications of their name than they did.
  • Playing with Fire: One of the many perks of a loop as a Cathayan Dragon.
  • Running Gag: His simulated Mutual Kill with Phelan Kell on Arc Royal keeps happening every time, no matter whether either of them is Awake or not, and it happened again literally the first time they fought outside their home loop. He's already pretty firmly convinced that Yggdrasil is obsessed with the idea. Applebloom and Sunset Shimmer agree with him.
  • Voluntary Shapeshifting: One of the other perks of his time spent as Zhao Ming.

    Hanse Davion 
Battletech's second Anchor, covering the very eventful thirty-odd years before Kai's usual Awakening.
  • The Ace: The only reason his feats as a MechWarrior don't stand out as much as Kai's or Phelan's is because his reputation as a cunning political and military leader willing to use a mix of espionage, outside-the-box tactics, and genuine good-faith diplomacy, eclipsed them and gave him the nickname "The Fox".
  • Asskicking Leads to Leadership: While the Federated Suns and later Federated Commonwealth don't specifically require asskicking from their leaders the way the Clans do, they do require military service and Hanse is a quite skilled MechWarrior who personally defended the New Avalon Institute of Science from a False Flag Operation attack and managed Mission Kills on most of the enemy 'Mechs after losing his Battlemaster's main gun. By beating them into scrap with the torn off arm of a downed Marauder.
  • Giant Mecha: Like most of the BattleTech loopers, he's a MechWarrior.

Ben 10

    Ben Tennyson 
Anchor of the Ben 10-verse Loops, saved the world more times than he cares to count.
  • Adaptational Badass: Downplayed, but his personal Omnitrix contains the DNA of beings like Arceus and Vector Prime, giving him access to multiple god-like transformations rather than just Alien X.

Bloodborne

    Plain Doll 
Anchor of the Bloodborne Loops, mostly just referred to as "Doll."
  • Berserk Button: The only time she's ever shown genuine rage is when Twilight Sparkle was convinced that she was incapable of feeling emotions such as love or loyalty.
  • The Comically Serious:
    Twilight Sparkle: "A rotary cannon. The Hunter is dueling Nightmare Moon with a rotary cannon. Why am I not surprised?"
    Doll: "A combination of the loops and my own universes’ influence, I presume."
    Twilight: "Do you know what the word ‘rhetorical’ means?"
    Doll: "I do, I simply choose to ignore it."
    Twilight:' "Urgh..."
  • Did You Think I Can't Feel?: Her reaction to Twilight Sparkle assuming that someone like her is incapable of feeling love or loyalty, or just emotions in general.
  • Dissonant Serenity: Pretty much her default state - even if she's convinced that she's about to die or butchering her enemies, she'll probably just nod and acknowledge it.
    • Being the Anchor for Yharnam is at least part of the cause.
  • Lack of Empathy: She's not incapable of empathy or caring for others, but she's got a lot of trouble with it. This is because spending time with the Hunter introduced new emotions that she previously didn't have, so she's unused to it.
  • Took a Level in Badass: After several Loops of just watching the Hunter fight, she decides to join the Hunt herself.
  • Undying Loyalty: To any Hunter that passes through the Dream, whether native or a visitor.

Blue Exorcist

    Rin Okumura 
The Son of Satan and exorcist.
  • Dark Is Not Evil: Has been known to have loops where he is open about being the son of Satan from the get go. Results vary.
  • Fanboy: Of Might Guy. He generally likes him and has spent loops emulating him for more reason than just wanting to troll people
  • Fighting Your Friend: Ended up fighting Shiemi due to Kyubey's manipulation.

Camp Camp

    Max 

A jaded, cynical ten-year-old stuck at the rundown Camp Campbell. Forever.

  • Aw, Look! They Really Do Love Each Other: Deep down, he honestly does care about his fellow campers and counselors. Nikki and Neil's initial Awakenings were the happiest he'd been since he started looping, he hugged David when the latter became a looper, and comforted Gwen after she had a near-breakdown over the situation.
  • Everyone Has Standards:
    • He was genuinely not looking forward to telling David that his childhood friend Jasper was actually dead.
    • He refused to rag on Gwen for dating a fish monster because it was "too easy".
    • Subverted in one instance. He seemed genuinely disgusted when Gwen tried to solicit a way to keep Graggle's curse going beyond the True Love's Kiss, but it was just an act.
  • Ship Tease: It's implied he has a crush on Nikki, judging by some comments from Gwen.

Carmen Sandiego

    Carmen Sandiego 
Anchor of the Branch who is considered to be the greatest female thief in the Multiverse and potentially the greatest in the Multiverse

    Carmen "Carm" Sandiego 
Anchor for the 2019 series.

  • Impossible Thief: She's been learning how to pull off the same ridiculous thefts as her older self.
  • In-Series Nickname: To tell her apart from her other self, she goes by "Carm" and "Red".

Channel Awesome

    Linkara 
The Anchor of Channel Awesome.

    Magic Gun 
The soulbound Co-Looper of Linkara. The soul of a young girl who was scarified by their family in a cult ritual, their soul was bound to a hand gun.

Cinemassacre

    Angry Video Game Nerd 
The Anchor of Cinemassacre.

Code Geass

    Lelouch Lamperouge/Vi Britannia/Zero 
Prince, Revolutionary, Morally Complicated.

  • Enfant Terrible: Has managed to murder his parents and take over Britannia at the age of 7, multiple times.
  • Gender Bender: Due to a glitch, anytime a new looper awakens in a loop, he often spends it female.
  • Large Ham: Got him in trouble during a loop where being a large ham caused ham to form around you. He was introduced being almost crushed by a huge slab of ham.
  • "No. Just… No" Reaction: His reaction to a loop where Euphemia was engaged to marry Schneizel.
  • Oh, Crap!: His view on a loop where Milly Ashford replaced Haruhi.
  • Screw This, I'm Out of Here!: His reaction to a loop where all combat was Duel Monster based, including the reason for invading Japan.
  • There Are No Therapists: Averted, he actually sees them.
  • Troll: Some of his behavior against Cornelia and Ohgi is certainly this.
  • Write What You Know: In-universe; he occasionally writes Manga series to fund the Black Knights, using Suzaku and the others in his life as bases. Suzaku does not find it amusing.

Codename: Kids Next Door

    Numbuh One (Nigel Uno) 
The leader of Sector V and the best KND operative on the planet. Anchor of the KND Loops.
  • An Ice Person: Nigel's first loop was a fused loop replacing Elsa from Frozen. He kept the ice powers as a side effect.
  • Character Development: Is far more trusting of non-evil adults and teens then his baseline self.
  • Crazy-Prepared: He had an Anti-Magic field set up in the Treehouse once in the Fused Loop mentioned below even before he found out it was a Fused Loop.
  • Everyone Can See It: The rest of his team knew about his crush on Rachel. According to Abby, it was their job to know.
  • Every Man Has His Price: He was refusing to let Eddy have a tree house seed...until Eddy offers to deal with Billy for the next five loops. He changes his mind rather quickly.
  • Official Couple: With Numbuh 362.
  • Oh, Crap!: When what was thought to be a standard baseline loop turns out to be a fused loop with the Conversion Bureau.
  • Playing with Fire: At an unknown point in the Loops, he gained the same powers as Father, his uncle.
  • Sleeping Their Way to the Top: Child friendly version but quite a few non loopers, as well as Numbuh 86, have accused him of entering a relationship with Numbuh 362 in order to get a promotion. This is not only completely false, but Nigel has pointed out that he's the best operative in the universe, so if he wanted to rise up the ladder, he could do it easily.
  • This Is Gonna Suck:

Crash Bandicoot

     Crash 
  • The Ditz: Crash really hasn't gotten all that much brighter since Looping.

Critical Role

    Scanlan Shorthalt 
The Anchor of Critical Role and a member of Vox Machina. His first fused loop has him replacing Sokka in the Avatar Loops. He is a resident of the continent of Tal'dorei.—-
  • Noodle Incident: When Katara realizes he's his loops' Anchor and explains it to him, he lampshades several incidents from his baseline such as mooning an enraged Goliath and peeing on a vampire spawn.

Danganronpa

    Makoto Naegi 
Class 78's Ultimate Luck, who later becomes the Ultimate Hope. Anchors the Hope's Peak Saga.
  • All-Loving Hero: Wouldn't be Makoto if he didn't care about everyone from his home loop. He even holds out hope that Junko is redeemable (although he does admit it's a very long shot).
  • Distracted by the Sexy: During Chihiro's Awakening, he gets a little distracted by Kyoko being herself.
    It wasn’t his fault Kyoko was really attractive!
  • The Gadfly: He does have a mischievous side to him, such as one loop where he turns Junko into an internet troll.
  • Official Couple: With both Mukuro and Kyoko.

    Shuichi Saihara 
The Ultimate Detective and the anchor of Killing Harmony.
  • Despair Event Horizon: Very nearly crossed it after being exposed to all of his friends repeatedly dying while not understanding what is happening. Kaede's Awakening as well as getting the speech saves him from it.
  • Hero-Worshipper: He looks up to Makoto for his actions.
  • Tears of Joy: When Kaede begins looping.

Dark Crystal

    Aughra 
The Anchor and Voice of Thra.

DC Comics

    Nightwing 

Also known as Richard "Dick" Grayson. Batman's former sidekick, he's generally considered to be one of the nicest characters in all of the DC universe. Due to having received training from Batman, he's also a top-flight badass.


  • Badass Normal: Started off as one.
  • The Ghost: There are generally less snippets about him than you would think.

    Saturn Girl / Irma Ardeen 
She's a psychic superhero who is the co-founder of the Legion of Superheroes. She's also the Anchor for the Legion of Superhero's branch.

Digimon

    Takato Matsuki & Guilmon 
Anchors for the Digimon Tamer section. They began Looping around the same time as the MLP Loopers.

    Takuya Kanbara 
Anchor for the Digimon Frontier section.
  • Henshin Hero: The only Digimon Anchor without a partner, since he becomes a Digimon

Discworld

    Rincewind 
Self-proclaimed "wizzard" and utter coward. The Loops have done jack-squat to shake his belief that reality is out to get him. He spends most of his Loops waiting for the other shoe to drop, usually in somewhere secure.
  • Action Survivor: Is 'very' good at running away from danger. For a long time he was famed as being the one Looper to have never died at some point.
    • His one death was a result of him choosing not to run when Death came for him. This happened in the aftermath of Sir Terry Pratchet's passing.
  • Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Of a sort. Discord inverts his personality for fun in one Loop. Massive amount of violence ensue. It also should be noted that Rincewind is the Anchor for his world - he is likely far more dangerous than his baseline self. Despite aforementioned cowardice.

Doctor Who

    The Doctor 
The one, the only, and the best.
  • Cassandra Truth: The MLP Loopers refused to believe he was Looping at first, given how widespread knowledge of him is spread throughout the Loops.
  • Cheshire Cat Grin: The Fourth Doctor's impressive one gets brought up during his Hogwarts Loop. Harry wonders if it's how he gets away with what he does.
  • Cloudcuckoolander: Even a Looping Six thinks his rainbow coloured abomination is suitable to wear.
  • Gender Bender: Only in Rule 63 universes, and then only into female forms of his usual regenerations.
  • Glass Cannon: At least in the Smash verse, the Doctor can be sent flying off screen with only one smash attack from King Dedede, suggesting himself to be this.
  • I Let Gwen Stacy Die: Frequently tries to save Adric and Donna Noble. Doesn't always succeed with the former, never succeeds with the latter, until she starts Looping.
  • The Main Characters Do Everything: The Fourth Doctor, when he loops into Hogwarts, insists on doing absolutely everything himself. Except talking about Barty Crouch Jr. When that subject comes up, he vanishes for several weeks.
  • The Nth Doctor: He can still regenerate while Looping. Currently can only Loop through William Hartnell to the end of Matt Smith's tenure, though with the arrival of Capaldi, that'll change. He also can't regenerate outside his home loop. His regenerations are fixed, as well, meaning he's always the Tenth Doctor twice.
  • Omniglot: He can speak snake. Comes in handy when there's a giant basilisk about.
  • Railroading: On the receiving end. No matter what he does, a Dalek tends to fatally shoot the Tenth Doctor.
  • Straight Man: The War Doctor ends up being this, at least compared to other Doctors. This can be particularly seen when he has to deal with Naruto or Black Star

Doom

    Doomguy 
Demon slayer extrodinare, Doomguy is known by many as guy who enjoys his world, and the activities it entails.
  • Blood Knight: Even taking the Doom comic out of the equation, Doomguy really likes demon killing a lot.
  • Nice Guy: Surprisingly nice to chat too. It helps that his violent tendencies are directed towards demons instead of Loopers.
  • This Is Gonna Suck: His reaction to the fact that Doom (2016) and by extension, Doom Eternal are linked his his initial baseline games. This is punctuated with one single word.
Doomguy: Fuck...

Dragon Ball

    Bulma Brief 
Anchor for the Dragon Ball Loops.
  • Flight: Gained it.
  • Genius Bruiser: She was plenty smart in Baseline Dragon Ball, and the Loops have made her far more capable of backing it up with her fists.
  • Took a Level in Badass: She's become strong enough over the Loops that she's capable of fighting Goku one on one (at times, since she's not as devoted to training as he is).
  • Wrench Wench: She's one of the best mechanics and scientists in Yggdrasil for technology.

Eyeshield 21

    Sena Kobayakawa 
A high school student in Japan, Sena Kobayakawa is the fastest running back of his generation. He serves as the Anchor of the Eyeshield 21 Loop.

Fate Grand Order

    Ritsuka Fujimaru 
The Anchor for the Fate Grand Order Loops, and constant species and gender shifter. As the Last Master of Chaldea, their survival is extremely important to the Loop as a whole.
  • All-Loving Hero: Extremely so, and it's what earns them the Undying Loyalty of their hundreds friends.
  • Ambiguously Human: To the point where they are often not human during the Loops in the first place.
  • Casting a Shadow: They tend to abuse those Twili powers a lot.
  • Dark Is Not Evil: Quite the nice guy despite being a demon most of the time, a God of the Underworld just as often, and a Twili when the mood fits.
  • Defeatingthe Undefeatable: Practically their specialty.
  • Determinator: Par Excellence, Ritsuka's stubborn refusal to quit or back down against foes as daunting as a Physical God or even beyond that is why they are so successful.
  • Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Practially something they lead their Servants to do on a daily basis.
  • Gender Bender: Due to their gender not be a constant, it shifts between Loops.
  • Magnetic Hero: The ability to bring people together and draw allies to their side is often one of Ritsuka's greatest advantages. Even should-be enemies are just allies waiting to be made.
  • Non-Action Guy: Due to the level of strength Ritsuka's opponents are, they tend to avoid direct combat to survive.
  • The Strategist: While they don't do a lot of fighting themselves, they are a master of leveraging the strengths and weaknesses of any opponent. If the first plan doesn't work, the next seven probably will.
  • Secret-Keeper: Ritsuka keeps a surprising amount of secrets for other people, mostly Servants like James Moriarty or Oberon.
  • Weak, but Skilled: Compared to the other Chaldean Loopers, and despite being the Anchor, Ritsuka is probably only stronger than Goredolf. Despite this they have a surprisingly wide vareity of tricks up their sleeve.
  • Voluntary Shapeshifting: Picked this up early on in order to semi-solve their Ambiguously Human issue. Uses it to be previous forms more often than not, or even become a Hybrid Monster of multiple previous forms.

Loopers

Five Nights At Freddy's

    Freddy Fazbear 

    Bonnie 
In actual canon, he is a boy named Jeremy who has possessed the animatronic rabbit.

    Chica 

    Foxy 

    Toy Foxy/Mangle 

  • Badass Adorable: Cute, constantly curious, kind... and able to take on all of the other toy animatronics at once and win.
  • Because You Were Nice to Me: Befriended Dell because he repaired her after the kids took her apart.

    Toy Chica 

    Phone Guy 
  • Affably Evil: During the loop where he was stuck in a Freddy suit instead of being killed.
  • Bad Liar: Lampshaded by Mike when he tried to convince him that he was not stuffed into a Freddy suit after his fourth night in one loop.
  • The Voice: His body was lost to the loops.

Asura's Wrath

    Asura 
One of the Eight Guardian Generals of his world, and the closest thing the Loops have besides Khorne to a living embodiment of Unstoppable Rage.
  • Tranquil Fury: He has become better at keeping this state of mind over time. However, since his power grows the more angry he gets...

Attack on Titan

    Hannes/Hans 
Long time friend of Eren, Armin and Mikasa. The first looper of their world.
  • Badass Normal: Has foregone insane training, superpowers, advanced technology and magic to focus on basic skills such as swordsmanship and strategy. It shows.
  • Out of Focus: The oldest normal looper of the bunch, and so far the least written about.
  • The Smart Guy: Not all that powerful compared to younger loopers, but experienced and thoughtful.
  • Team Dad: Eventually evolved into this as more loopers showed up and came to him for advice.

    Jean Kirstein 
A blunt young man who ended up being the second looper of the Attack universe. Used to have a crush on Mikasa.

    Sasha Braus 
The third looper for the Attack loops, who experienced a particularly painful death at the end of her first loop. She enjoys food and archery.
  • Action Girl: Not feminine enough to count as Girly Girl, and definitely a damn good archer.
  • Big Eater: Downplayed in the loops. Sasha keeps her subspace pocket stashed with food for herself, but doesn't usually mention it.
  • Genius Ditz: Has shown a strong understanding of plants and animals, and is able to determine the location of the walls merely by observing the local wildlife.
  • Guys Smash, Girls Shoot: Has this dichotomy with most of the other boys, thanks to her archery skills.
  • Trade Mark Favorite Food: Does not, in fact, adore potatoes. She prefers meat.

    Connie Springer 
Connie was a more or less average soldier prior to the loops, but once he entered them, he tried to use them to avenge his home town. It did not go well.
  • Butt-Monkey: Is often the butt of jokes and strange loops.
  • Combo Platter Powers: Has steam powers, which essentially affords immunity to high temperature and pressure, the ability to generate steam from any fluid in contact with his body, and to direct said steam psychically.
  • Running Gag: Giraffes, particularly the Ox-Ox Fruit, Model Giraffe, pop up with him a lot.
  • Tag Along Kid: Being nowhere near as strong as the other loopers, and without any specific hobbies of his own, Connie usually falls into a support role for other loopers. That said, he is capable of...
  • Xanatos Gambit: ...Managing to manipulate the Shifter Trio into helping him try and attack the Beast Titan.
  • Yank the Dog's Chain: Even though he had knowledge from the future and allied himself with the Shifter Trio, Connie failed to protect his village from the Beast Titan, and had to watch his Titanized father be killed.

    Zoe Hanji/Hange 
A scientist that began looping approximately midway through the early loops, Zoe's gender code (and the spelling of Zoe's surname) was lost in the crash, leading to constant gender flips between loops. Zoe, fortunately, is non-binary, and has no set gender identity.

    Keith Shadis 
A drill sergeant who randomly started looping, Keith elected to become a stealth looper after learning about the supposed curse on his loop. Keith's history, similar to Ymir's, is variable and can change on a loop-by-loop basis. He does know Grisha Yeager through some unknown venue as well.
  • Lovecraftian Superpower: The only looper who is known to have maintained the ability to Shift into a Titan outside of Ymir and Eren.
  • Stealth Expert: Has successfully hidden himself from the Anchors and the other loopers.
  • Unexpected Character: Is surprised to be looping, and can't fully explain why.

    Captain Levi Ackerman 
Humanity's greatest soldier in the baseline, Levi had a checkered past, to put it lightly. Looping only made it worse when a bug in his code causes him to irreversibly turn into a vampire for entire loops, should he get angry. Levi has since then struggled to live with the revelations that have come to be known about the Titans.
  • Broken Ace: Did not take the revelation that he would once again be killing Titans (read, innocent people) well. He compared himself unfavorably to Kenny the Ripper.
  • Daywalking Vampire: As a side effect of having been infected with the Twilight strain of vampirism, he can still fight in daylight.
  • Deadpan Snarker: Often takes the role
  • Made of Iron: Indestructible, thanks to the strain of vampirism he has.
  • Tears of Joy: Sheds them when a loop occurs where Isabel and Farlan (pseudo-siblings of his, similar to Eren, Armin and Mikasa's relationship) showed up alive in a late loop.

    Historia Reiss 
Historia Reiss was the illegitimate child of the true king of the walled nation, Rod Reiss. Due to her heritage, Historia was first disowned by her father and sent into the military. Once Eren was revealed as the Coordinate, she was kidnapped and almost forced to eat him. She, simply put, did not.
  • The Heart: The kindest and most empathetic of all the loopers.
  • An Ice Person: Was apparently able to channel ice through a shepherds cane, one she gained from a loop into Rise of the Guardians.
  • Official Couple: With Ymir.
  • Took a Level in Badass: What got her looping. Or rather, why the author let her loop. Historia, after being carefully cajoled by her manipulative father to eat Eren, decided not to give into her father's machinations, and threw him across the room. Kenny approved.

    Ymir 
The eighth person to be Aware of the Loops and eleventh overall, Ymir's code was horrendously damaged in the crash, thus preventing her from looping normally. To rectify this, Ganesha instead elected to initialize her Titan as a looper, and have Ymir backpack off of that. Ymir ended up developing the Dreaming Glitch, and is yet to become a full looper.

    Marco Bodt 
Marco was, in baseline, a combination of The Heart and a Team Dad. Now with those positions comfortably filled, Marco is fine with kicking back. Due to his first loop as a halfa, Marco has managed to avoid death since.
  • Friend to All Living Things: Fully accepts that Annie, Bertolt and Reiner are spies against humanity, and doesn't let that affect his judgement. Even convinced Jean to change his opinion.
  • Lovecraftian Superpower: He's a nice guy, and half ghost. Who'd have thought it?
  • The Sixth Ranger: Despite being such an important character in the baseline (being, as mentioned above, The Heart, Team Dad, and the catalyst for Jean's Character Development), Marco doesn't comfortably fit in with any of the other loopers aside from Jean, and is fine with this.

    Carla Yeager 
  • Blob Monster: Of a sort. She can liquefy her body, converting it and her attire into pure water.
  • Slime Girl: A female Blob Monster. Call her one though, and Eren and Mikasa will eradicate you.
  • Team Mom: Empathetic and thoughtful, but does struggle to figure out who she is and where she belongs in life.
  • Unexpected Character: Who'd have thought she would ever loop!?!

Avatarverse

    Aang 
The last Airbender, and Avatar during his era. He's the owner of a flying bison, Appa.
  • Official Couple: With Katara. Later on, he, Zuko, Mai, and Katara also start going out.
  • Physical God: As the Avatar, he's one of the few Loopers capable of wielding all four elements of his world at once. He also once spent a Loop hosting Raava when she was a Warp Goddess.

    Katara 
The last Waterbender of the Southern Water Tribe, sister to Sokka, and Aang's love interest. Does not fly.

    Toph Beifong 
Blind Earthbender, and kicker of many asses. The greatest Earthbender in the multiverse.
  • Disability Superpower: Is completely blind, and incredibly skilled at bending. It also seems to be the same for anyone who replaces her.
  • Dishing Out Dirt: The Greatest Earthbender in the Multiverse.
  • Troll: She once claimed Suyin was her and Katara's daughter just to mess with her (and the Krew).

    Zuko 
Prince of the Fire Nation, son of Fire Lord Ozai, the usual main villain for the Avatar Loops. Has serious issues.
  • Determinator: Zuko just does not give up. No matter how often versions of Azula attack him, burn him, even on occasion kill him, he doesn't stop trying to reach out to his little sister.
  • I Let You Win: When Azula started Looping, he apparently let her win most of their Pai Sho games to help her feel better.
  • Official Couple: With Mai. Later on, he, Aang, Katara and Mai apparently became a foursome.

    Suki 
Elite warrior trained in the art of stealth. Sokka's love interest.
  • Anti-Magic: She's acquired some chi-blocking courtesy of Ty Lee.
  • My Friends... and Zoidberg: Was the last of the Gaang to start Looping, much to Sokka's annoyance. With that said, she was also the sixth Looper of their world, as Iroh, Ty Lee, and Mai didn't Awaken till after she did.
  • Suddenly Shouting: In one Loop, she Awoke as Azula. Her initial response when she figured this out was to start screaming loudly.
  • Use Your Head: Once attempted during a fight with a repeat of that run-in with Azula in the forest. It sort of worked.

    Ty Lee 
Former good-natured henchperson for Princess Azula, later good-natured Kyoshi Warrior. Chi-blocker. Can see auras.
  • Anti-Magic: Seems to have become her specialty over the Loops.
  • Aura Vision: While the series never actually showed whether she had it or not, here she definitely does.
  • Official Couple: With Azula at times. Largely to help her stay stable.

    Mai 
Master knife-thrower. Deadpan Snarker. The Stoic. And Zuko's girlfriend.
  • Noodle Incident: She and Ty Lee once became the Earth Queens by betraying Azula.
  • Official Couple: With Zuko. Later on, she and he also develop an "understanding" with Katara and Aang.
  • Troll: In one Loop, she, Azula and an un-Awake Ty Lee were sent to hunt down a cat. Mai suggested Azula throw a fireball at it. Mai takes photos of the resulting one-sided ass-kicking the cat hands out.

    Azula 
Fire Nation Princess, and The Heavy of the first show. The last of the ATLA Loops to start. Has issues.
  • Character Development: Her Character Arc is more or less her trying to figure out what it is that she wants post-ATLA.
  • Good Colours, Evil Colours: Her initial lightsaber is, since she's a Sith, red. A short while into her training she felt a compulsion to make a blue one. For psychological and infiltration purposes, of course. Nothing more.
  • How the Mighty Have Fallen: She once managed to get taken out by a cat (though Mai did mention this is apparently pretty common with the cat in question).
  • Luke, I Am Your Father:
    • The infamous joking claim that she was Lin's "dad" the creators made is giving a nod in one snip, where an un-Awake Azula and Toph show up to boo Lin and Suyin's fight in Book 3.
    • One snip has her managing to wind up becoming Korra's grandmother, along with Eska and Desna's, not to mention Unalaq's mom.
  • O.O.C. Is Serious Business: A snip before she started Looping has her drinking spiked tea and becoming disturbingly pleasant (commenting on how nice the day is while underground).
  • Overshadowed by Awesome: She didn't start Looping until after the Crash, whereas her world is one of the oldest non-O7 dimensions in the Loops. She quickly becomes aware as a result that for all her power, compared to the other Loopers of her world she's completely outclassed.

    Raava 
The Avatar Spirit who is partnered with Aang and later Korra.

  • Non-Standard Character Design: In-universe. Like Ymir in the Attack On Titan Loops, she's not Looping normally, but is Dreaming via Aang and Korra, and can remember past loops due to her connection with them when they are Awake. Even when they aren't, she's still Loop Aware. Word of God is that the Admins don't want her to Loop normally for fear of her connection to her evil opposite Vaatu causing him to Loop as well.

    Korra 
Avatar during her era, and skilled with all four elements. Is also Asami's girlfriend.
  • Official Couple: She and Asami Sato.
  • Physical God(dess): As the latest Avatar.
  • Sickeningly Sweethearts: Once spent a Loop with Asami just looking into her eyes. Which was a problem for Bolin and Mako since the couple were were replacing Beast and Belle (Bolin was Lumiere and Mako was Cogsworth).

    Asami Sato 
Captain of industry, pioneer of new technology, and nonbender. Is also Korra's girlfriend.
  • Badass Normal: She's picked up one or two abilities, but prefers to use her gadgetry or technology in a fight.

    Mako 
Firebender. Scarf-wearer. Cop.
  • Post-Kiss Catatonia: Once freed a female version of Wu, who kissed him as thanks. He went catatonic the next Loop.
  • Shock and Awe: His lightning bending has improved significantly over the loops.

    Bolin 
Mako's brother, earth-bender. Film star, athlete and soldier. Has a pet ferret.
  • Official Couple: With Opal. He gets pretty upset if separated from her for long periods.
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Pies are a recurring threat to him (and were once the face of P'li), making him naturally wary of them.

Battletech

    Victor Steiner-Davion 
Heir and briefly ruler of the Federated Commonwealth in baseline. He tends to like it when his sister Katherine gets Replaced by a Looper.
  • Affectionate Nickname / Embarrassing Nickname: Many loops after encountering him as Davi-on Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker still refers to him as "Dave".
  • Bond Creature: Formed a bond with a Cultivationspren named Eleyan on the world of Roshar, making him one of the first Knights Radiant in the Loops.
  • Giant Mecha: Is a MechWarrior along with being a leader.
    • Assisted with the Fate/Grand Order loop's "Ares' Children" project and helped build 'Mechs for himself and his companions. His is a support 'Mech called Ghal Maraz, with repair systems and heavy mostly long-ranged firepower.
  • Mad Scientist: Thanks to a loop in Girl Genius's Europa, he is certainly one now, and was leaning into it beforehand with his efforts to combine science, magic, and Alchemy.
  • Magic Knight: Started this path with his Formative Loop replacing Obi-Wan Kenobi, and has only added to it since. Such as becoming an Edgedancer.
  • Master Swordsman: Even in baseline, he ended the Clan Invasion with a sword duel with the Clans' ilKhan (who was, like Taman Malthus, an Elemental), and survived a swordfight with assassins, and then his Formative Loop had him replacing one of the best lightsaber duelists in the galaxy.
  • Mundane Utility: Like any Bonded Spren whose Radiant has reached a certain level, Eleyan can manifest in the Physical Realm as a Shardblade, a terrifying shapeshifting sword capable of literally severing a living being's soul from their body. Due to her distaste for being used as a weapon and Victor considering using her against most opponents to be cheating, she tends get more use out of her ability to shapeshift into simple tools when Victor needs them for building things. It certainly helps with his Mad Scientist budget.
  • The Smart Guy: Is becoming this among the Battletech loopers. While none of them are dumb, he's the one focusing on the Techno Babble side of things.
  • Ultimate Blacksmith: Kai may have earned Hyorinmaru and Phelan Aerondight, but Victor made his sword, Wightbane. Using Alchemy to synthesize Valyrian Steel and Beskar, and then a separate transmutation circle to forge them into a blade.

    Taman Malthus 
An Elemental of Clan Jade Falcon who gained a healthy respect for Kai Allard-Liao that eventually turned to something close to friendship.
  • Cooking Duel: Is quite good at them thanks to looping into Food Wars! as Subaru Mimasaka, The King of Stalkers.
  • Dishing Out Dirt / Extra-ore-dinary: Has learned both Earthbending and Metalbending from the Avatar loops.
  • Giant Mecha: Has had at least one loop where he was bred as a MechWarrior instead of an Elemental, and another where he Replaced Victor. Tends to fall back on his instincts, and it usually works out well for him because "getting in the enemy's face and tearing it off" isn't usually expected of a Clanner due to their weapons' range advantage over the Inner Sphere.
    • This philosophy carried over to Talon, the 'Mech he received from the "Ares' Children" project, a ProtoMech with stealth systems, ridiculous maneuverability, some sniping capability, and terrifying close-range and melee weaponry.
  • Phrase Catcher: Has a minor Running Gag of people reacting to his Stealth Hi/Bye tendencies with a confused "Wha?!"
  • Stealth Hi/Bye: Between who he was at Totsuki and the fact that the Throne of Heroes decided to assign him to the Assassin class, he can pull this off while wearing a literal metric ton of bright green Power Armor. Even his fellow loopers are somewhat baffled.
  • Supreme Chef: Thanks to his loop spent at Totsuki Academy, he's become one skilled enough to give an unAwake EMIYA a run for his money in a competition.

    Phelan Kell 
The other of the two greatest MechWarriors in the Inner Sphere.
  • Dreamwalker / Dream Weaver: Thanks to having been both Perrin and Solas, he is ridiculously powerful in the world of dreams, to the point where he is justifiably confident that keeping uninvited guests out of Ritsuka Fujimaru's dreams is within his capability.
  • Giant Mecha: Skilled enough a MechWarrior to work his way from "essentially a slave" to leading the people who'd captured him.
    • Phelan's 'Mech from Chaldea is primarily a scout like his favored baseline 'Mech, down to being named Grinner III, but it packs a surprising punch and was designed as a spellcasting focus that allows Phelan to bring his magic to bear through the 'Mech itself.
  • The Stoic: Being Geralt of Rivia in his Formative Loop did a lot to help him hide his emotions, and a certain terror he faced as Yamcha has made him extremely hard to frighten. So much so that Alucard realized something was very wrong after pulling a jump-scare on him to test his reaction.
    Alucard: You know, I managed to get Ranma to scream with that. Got my ass handed to me right after, but he still showed more of a reaction than you did. What the hell have you been dealing with?
  • There Are No Therapists: Quite thankful this is averted in the Loops, even if Alucard was the one having to help him recover from Abridged!Popo-related PTSD.
  • Our Werewolves Are Different: He's been at least six different kinds already, and on being confronted with a loop as Remus Lupin, learned how to swap out what kind he is.
  • Running Gag: Aside from the simulated Mutual Kill with Kai happening every single time, he is heartily sick of the fact that Yggdrasil loves the fact that he had a name for a while that came out to "Wolf Wolf".
  • Ultimate Blacksmith: Spent a loop as Perrin Aybara and forged the first Power-Wrought weapon in millennia, just as the original did in baseline.
  • Voluntary Shapeshifting: Aside from learning from Puar while he was Yamcha, thanks to what he theorizes as the Throne of Heroes 'metaphorically throwing up its hands in disgust' at his glitchy Yggdrasil code, he's gained the Self Modification skill as a Heroic Spirit.

    Deirdre Lear 
Medical doctor and Kai Allard-Liao's wife.
  • The Medic: A doctor who served in a MASH unit and has a similar view on war to Hawkeye Pierce, though at least she never had a psychotic break over it.
  • Slap-Slap-Kiss: Her initial impression of Kai was that he was handsome and kind of dorky. Then she learned who he was and hated him because of family history (Justin Xiang Allard killed her father in a gladiatorial match on Solaris VII, and her father got vilified for it after Justin's true nature as a covert operative for the Federated Suns came to light). Then, they ended up in some extremely stressful situations together thanks to the Jade Falcons, fell in love, and finally married after Kai realized that It's Not You, It's My Enemies was not a healthy way to go about things.
  • Odd Friendship: She earned Taman Malthus's respect by managing to keep up with Kai while they were both evading capture, and he later pulled off a completely unsanctioned rescue mission to save her and her son from Kai's extended family.

Ben 10

    Gwen Tennyson 
  • The Power of Language: She was able to talk Charmcaster down from sacrificing all life to revive her dead father, which also allowed her to begin Looping.
    Kevin Levin 
    Julie Yamamoto 
    Ship 
Co-Looper to Julie.
  • Action Pet: Like in baseline, while he make act like a dog, he able to combine with technology and can even grant Julie access to a Powered Armor.
    Hope/Charmcaster 
A sorcerers who used to antagonize Team Tennyson.
  • Heel–Face Turn: Unlike canon, the loops allowed her to properly get help for her issues and she's now a good friend to the others.

Bloodborne

    The Hunter 
Protagonist of the Bloodborne Loops, and partner/master of Doll.
  • Ambiguous Gender: Like Shepard, their gender and backstory changes from Loop to Loop.
  • Badass Boast: When facing down Nightmare Moon, they give these out a lot.
    Death? Don't fear death... Fear me.
  • Blood Knight: To the shock of the Mane Six, they love spending time in Yharnam, and this is the reason. How much of it is a mental defense mechanism to being trapped there isn't clear, though.
  • Implacable Man: Knocked down by a massive amount of force. Snark about where that Brick Troll came from. Blasted through several rock walls? Take a few seconds to heal up with a Blood Vial. Trapped in a burning room they set fire to themselves? Break through the door! Hit by the Stare from an enraged Looping Fluttershy? Ask her to stop politely while shrugging the effects off. If there's something that can get the Hunter to stay down reliably for very long that doesn't involve Person of Mass Destruction levels of power being tossed around, we have yet to see it.

    Gehrman 
First of the Hunters of Yharnam, and the first Looper after Doll herself.
  • Old Master: He was already this in the game, and Looping hasn't taken away his edge.

Blue Exorcist

    Mephisto 
Headmaster of True Cross Academy. Master of Time
  • Unexpected Character: As the first looper in the Exorcist verse after Yukio, and before many people closer to him.

    Shiemi Moriyama 
Summoner and gardener, was contracted by Kyubey the loop before she woke up and probably retained her powers in doing so. This bodes ominously for the loops
  • Bad Powers, Good People: One of the nicest people you'd meet in the Exorcist verse, given powers from one of the most infamous, if not the most infamous, MLE that could turn her into a monster if her emotions were to become too negative.
  • Green Thumb: Contracting with Kyubey gave her the power to manipulate plants.
  • Super-Strength: As her wish to Kyubey was 'to be stronger to stand with Yukio and Rin', she was given this power

Camp Camp

    Nikki 
Max's female best friend, and self-described "agent of chaos".
  • Ship Tease: Max might have a crush on her.
  • Smarter Than You Look: Despite staying largely the same on the surface, Nikki has become a lot more introspective and provides advice to both David and Gwen on how to cope with the loops.

    Neil 
Max's male best friend, a neurotic, science-obsessed camper.
  • For Science!: One of the reasons why he was so happy that David started looping is that David could buy all the chemicals that would be denied to a child like him.

Carmen Sandiego

    Player 
From the 2019 section, he's one of Carmen's most trusted allies.

Channel Awesome

    Nostalgia Critic 
The founder of Channel Awesome.

  • Hair-Trigger Temper: Like in baseline, he's very easy to tick off. Like the time Batman showed him the Bat-Checkbook or when Linkara got a Linkara Credit Card just to annoy him.
  • The Rival: To the Nerd like in baseline.

    Nostalgia Chick 
The Critic's Distaff Counterpart who Awoke sometime before the Christmas War.

  • Surroundedby Idiots: Considers her relationship with the Nostalgia Critic to be this.
  • The Grinch: Downplayed, as she does like the holiday, but she joined Team Scrooge in the Christmas War, solely because she hates Nostalgia Critic, who was the leader of Team Santa.

Code Geass

    Nunnally vi Britannia/Lamperouge 
Lelouch's beloved younger sister, and main Morality Pet
  • Morality Pet: Generally tries to keep her brother from murdering their siblings, outside of specific circumstances.
  • "No. Just… No" Reaction: Her reaction to a loop where Euphemia was to marry Schneizel. It was a rare loop in which she actually gave Lelouch permission to kill a sibling.

    Suzaku Kururugi 

    Kallen Kouzuki/Stadtfelt 
Black Knight's ace and Lelouch's most trusted subordinate.
  • There Is No Kill Like Overkill: A crimson Gunbuster vs the Chinese Federation. Lelouch mentally berates her for pretty much destroying the Status Quo.

    C.C 
Pizza-loving Witch and Troll.
  • Troll: Prone to writing Conspiracy Theory blogs with some truth stashed in them (including V.V's existence and Lelouch's survival) when she gets bored.

    Nina Einstein 
Intelligent wallflower and developer of the Freyja Bomb.
  • The Atoner: The first thing she did upon looping was destroying all her work that would lead to Freyja.
  • There Are No Therapists: Lelouch schedules herself a meeting with one to avoid this.

Codename: Kids Next Door

    Father (Benedict Uno) 
Arch-Enemy of the Kids Next Door and Evil Uncle to local Anchor Nigel Uno, aka Numbuh One.
  • Adaptational Heroism: Heavily downplayed. Whereas his final role in baseline had him trying to kill his nephew for stealing his pipe, up to spending several decades trying to track him down, here he actually does care about Nigel somewhat, even if he won't admit it, and tends to be a Friendly Enemy to Sector V overall.
  • Badass Boast: Delivers a truly epic one to a Conversion Bureau Celestia after she managed to stomp on his Berserk Button.
    Father: I AM BENEDICT UNO, LEADER OF THE ALLIANCE OF CONCERNED ADULTS, AND THE TRUE MASTER OF FIRE! AND IF YOU THINK I WILL LET YOU FREAKING PONIES TURN US ALL INTO ONE OF YOUR FREAK WITH NO SOUL MONSTERS, THEN IT'S TIME TO FEEL MY REAL ANGER!
  • Berserk Button: Do not treat him like a child. Doing so is pretty much begging for him to kick your ass. The Conversion Bureau Celestia found this out the hard way when he proceeded to send her flying through several houses just out of pure rage.
  • Enemy Mine: It's easier to list the number of times he hasn't teamed up with his nephew in the Loops, since if the situation calls for it, the two of them will have each others backs.
  • Even Evil Has Standards: He's a self admitted Child Hater and continues his battles with the KND in the loops, but not even he was going to interupt Nigel's first date with Rachel, even calling Sector V to warn them that if he found out through a rumor, then plenty of others did too and will likely try to crash the date.
  • Evil Uncle: Downplayed. He's still the Big Bad for the KND Baseline and Numbuh 1's uncle, though he's gone from "evil" to just "apathetic" uncle most of the time for Nigel in the Loops. Hell, he's gone out of his way to protect Nigel on occassion.
  • Friendly Enemy: Downplayed. They are by no means friends, and Numbuh 1 will gladly take the opportunity to be The Gadfly to his "Uncle Benny", but the Loops have shown the two forced to work together on multiple occassions, with Father going out of his way to protect his nephew, and Numbuh 1 even giving his uncle the occassional pep talk when he falls into depression.
  • Villain Decay: Averted - when he's angry enough, he's capable of burning the The Conversion Bureau version of Celestia, and as Numbuh 1 tells Sunset Shimmer when he met her afterwards, that Loop was before he had any Fused Loops, meaning it was pure Baseline ability.

    Kuki Sanban/Numbuh 3 

  • Heroic BSoD: Has one when she realizes that she is aging mentally due to the Loops, effectively making her older than 13, and thus, technically supposed to be decommissioned. Numbuh 1 snaps her out of it.

    Wallabee Beatles/Numbuh 4 

  • Oh, Crap!: Has this reaction when Numbuh 86 storms over to the group and it's clear she is Awake.

    Abigail Lincoln/Numbuh 5 
Number Two of the KND's Sector V,
  • Beam Spam: Spend a loop as Sans and picked up his powers.
  • Number Two: Despite being "Numbuh 5", she retains her position as second in command of Sector V, as well as Numbuh 1's right hand and closest confidant among the team.

    Cree Lincoln 
Teen Ninja, enemy of the KND, Numbuh 5's older sister, and formerly Numbuh 11.
  • Big Sister Instinct: Despite their feud, in Cree's first awake loop after her Awakening, she tells Abby to run from Grandfather rather then try to fight Cree to stall for time.
  • Heel–Face Revolving Door: Cree, for the most part, is content to just go with whatever role the loops give her, whether that be actual traitor or Teens Next Door operative, meaning that her alignment often varies between loops.
  • Hidden Depths: At face value, Cree isn't much different from her Baseline self. However, several snips have revealed that discovering the truth about Maurice and why he was dating her hurt her deeply and has left her both bitter and worried over the idea of falling in love again or even if anyone could love her.
  • Punch-Clock Villain: If she's Awake, Cree doesn't care what the others get up too as long as it doesn't involve her.
  • Shipper on Deck: Not so subtly hinted that she ships her sister with Numbuh 2.
  • Trauma Conga Line: Her first few loops are utter hell for her: she first Awakens during the The Conversion Bureau fused loop, discovers her Baseline boyfriend never loved her and was basically only using her for a Honey Trap, then, in spite of knowing about the danger, gets turned into a senior-citizombie by Grandfather. By the time Numbuh 5 realizes she's even looping, she's in the middle of the below mentioned Villainous BSoD, with a Despair Event Horizon crossing looking very likely until Numbuh 5 calms her down.
  • Villainous BSoD: Apparently, her first Loop was during a Fused Loop with The Conversion Bureau, which scarred her badly enough that she threw away her My Little Pony doll expies, which Numbuh 5 says she still treasured.

     Rachel T. McKenzie/Numbuh 362 
Surpeme Leader of the Kids Next Door
  • The Alcoholic: She's implied to have a bit of a root beer problem.
  • Ass Shove: In a fused loop with the SCP Foundation, it's heavily implied that, if she didn't force her yield sign staff down the Yule Man's throat during a fight, she shoved it up his rectum.
  • Can't Catch Up: Is afraid of this, even if she knows that she (along with everyone else in their home loop) will never catch up with Numbuh 1.
  • Flying Brick: Replaced Captain Marvel for a loop and kept the powers.
  • Monkey King Lite: One loop sees Father's animalization field somehow give her Sun Wukong's powers, complete with changing her appearance to better match the Monkey King.
  • Official Couple: With Numbuh 1.
  • Power Glows
  • Pint-Sized Powerhouse: Despite her new powers, she is still (physically) a ten year old girl.
  • Static Stun Gun: Her first loop saw her looped in as Carmelita from Sly Cooper and she kept the shock pistol as an Unawake Father learns in a later loop.

     Fanny Fulbright/Numbuh 86 
Head of Decommissioning and the Crisis Looper
  • Inferiority Superiority Complex: This is revealed to be the true reason she is so against Numbuh 1 and Numbuh 362 being in a relationship-she feels weak compared to Numbuh 1 and hates the fact he is so much stronger then her. A talk with Duncan helps her get over this.
  • Shipping Torpedo: Does everything she can to keep Numbuh 1 and Numbuh 362 from dating. This tends to end badly for her. However, she is slowly growing out of this.
  • Stunned Silence: Has this reaction when Numbuh 362 explains the Loops to her.
  • Troubled Fetal Position: Spent her first Gender Bender loop like this.
  • What Does She See in Him?: Makes no secret that she doesn't think Numbuh 1 is good enough for Numbuh 362. Again, she is growing out of this.

Crash Bandicoot

     Dr. Neo Cortex 

Critical Role

    Mollymauk Tealeaf 
A Tiefling Bloodhunter and looper from the continent of Wildemount and a member of the Mighty Nein.—-
  • Locked Out of the Loop: He and the rest of his group are on a different continent to their Anchor. Which means they don't know why they are repeating their lives.

    Yasha 
An Aasimar Barbarian and looper from the continent of Wildemount and a member of the Mighty Nein.—-
  • Locked Out of the Loop: She and the rest of her group are on a different continent to their Anchor. Which means they don't know why they are repeating their lives.

Danganronpa

    Kyoko Kirigiri 
The Ultimate Detective and the second looper following Makoto.

    Mukuro Ikusaba 
The Ultimate Solider and a former member of Ultimate Despair.

  • The Atoner: Mukuro hates what she did in Baseline with a passion and is always trying to make up for it.
  • Freak Out: Completely freaks out when she realizes that she isn't dead.
  • Heel–Face Turn: Mukuro remains firmly against Junko know that she knows what becomes of her if she continues to follow her sister.
  • Official Couple: With Makoto and Kyoko.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: Has this reaction following the Danganronpa 3 expansions.

    Byakuya Togami 
The Ultimate Affluent Progeny.

    Toko Fukawa/Genocide Jack 
The Ultimate Writing Prodigy and her serial killer Split Personality.

  • I Have Many Names: The loops can't decide if it's Jack, Jill, or Syo and it apparently changes loop to loop. She'll answer to all three, outright telling Komaru to call her whatever she wants.
  • Name McAdjective: Jack calls Toko "Grumpy McKilljoy" during Komaru's Awakening.
  • Split Personality: Jack serves as one to Toko and the two often snark at each other in Toko's head.
  • Vitriolic Best Buds: Toko and Jack will snipe at each other constantly, but the loops have mellowed out their hate for each other.

    Komaru Naegi 
Makoto's younger sister and the hero of Towa City.

    Kaede Akamatsu 
The Ultimate Pianist and the second looper from the V3 era.

  • Clawing at Own Throat: Her first action upon Waking Up for the first time is to begin to claw at her throat in hopes of removing the chain that was around her neck during her execution. It goes until she realizes that it's no longer there.
  • Comically Missing the Point: After Shuichi reveals how exactly she's still alive and what else he knows about their loop from Baseline, what does Kaede choose to focus on? That Tsumugi was the Mastermind. Shuichi calls her out on it.
  • Freak Out: Much like Mukuro, she freaks out upon Awakening due to still remembering her canon death.
  • Hero-Worshipper: She looks up to Makoto for his actions in his Baseline.

    Maki Harukawa 
The Ultimate Assassin.

  • Cassandra Truth: She attempts to expose Tsumugi as the Mastermind during her Awakening, only to get laughed off.
  • Not So Above It All: Openly enjoys when other loopers ruin the Killing Game in random ways.
  • The Stoic: She tends not to emote much.

    Chihiro Fujisaki 
The Ultimate Programmer.

  • Digitized Hacker: When replacing Alter Ego, he easily hacks into Junko's network and takes over a Monokuma to give himself a body.
  • Robot Me: Not quite, but he often loops in as Alter Ego.
  • Unexpected Character: Downplayed, as the group expected him to begin looping at some point, but were expecting others such as Hina or Hajime before him.
  • You Are Better Than You Think You Are: The other loopers outright tell him that he is one of the strongest people they know.

Dark Crystal

    Jen

DC Comics

    Batman 
Also known as Bruce Wayne.

  • Chronic Hero Syndrome: Can't stop being Batman, even in Loops that don't even have superheroes, like Equestria.
  • Crazy-Prepared: Has plans to deal with everything. With several hundred variants for every possible situation of these plans. It's enough that many loopers are worried about him.
    • He's even been working on plans to take down the Original Seven, though the plans are still in development and have low success rates due to the sheer power of the 07.
  • Everyone Has Standards: Apparently he does not go so far as to create Kryptonite Underwear out of paranoia.
  • Fate Worse than Death: He seems to regard being sent to the Lego Movie Loops as this, given he's sent there instead of Eiken.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: The Loops haven't done anything so far to bring out Batman's warm and sunny side.
  • Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Downplayed, but his Crazy-Prepared plans indirectly led to DIO learning the weaknesses of his enemies, which led to him staking Flora. It would've likely turned out differently had he not been injured by Bane's Backbreaker during the time of the theft.
  • Out-of-Character Moment: The notoriously untrusting Batman once instantly offered Big Macintosh a job seconds after the latter Awoke in the Bat-mobile.
  • Thou Shalt Not Kill: Batman's aversion to killing is even greater than pre loops. It's to a point he detains beings as vile as The Lich, Darth Sidious and Aku.

    Animal Man / Buddy Baker 

    Starfire 
Alien princess, and love interest of Nightwing. Has no nudity taboo.

Doctor Who

    Clara Oswald 
The first of the Doctor's companions to start Looping.

  • Break the Cutie: She got all of Series 8 dumped into her mind at once. It wasn't a pleasant experience.

    Donna Noble 
One of the Doctor's closest companions. Her Looping means she avoids the whole "dying horribly" thing that comes of being the Doctor-Donna.

  • Broken Bird: Still has a whole mess of emotional issues that weren't sorted out in her baseline. And there's that whole "memory-wipe" thing.
  • Incoming Ham: Her first words in the Loops? Shouting.
  • Troll: Has been known to use her foreknowledge to mess with some of the Doctor's enemies. And the Doctor himself, while she's there.

    Brigadier Sir Alistair Lethbridge-Stewart 
Leading figure of UNIT, and one of the Doctor's oldest friends

Dragon Ball

    Goku 
The second Looper from Dragon Ball, and (debatably) the strongest Looper there.

  • Happily Married: To Chi-chi, after the two managed to work out their communication problems.
  • Victory Is Boring: After the Loops began, Goku was the second Dragon Ball Looper after Bulma, and due to this was the strongest Looper in that world until the first Fused Loop… and before he and Bulma had the Loops explained to them by Ranma Saotome, who was far stronger than even Goku, he hated how strong he had become, because there wasn’t anyone left who could give him an actual fight.

    Vegeta 
Prince of the Saiyans, one of Goku's fiercest rivals and, eventually, allies.

  • Berserk Button: Downplayed, but Abridged!Nappa will, without fail, enrage him.

    Chi-Chi 
A somewhat strict (but getting kinder) woman who is also Goku's wife, and the mother of two boys, Gohan and Goten.

  • Happily Married: To Goku, after the two started to talk more about their issues.

     Artoria Pendragon (Alter) 
An alter version of the King of Camelot, who happens to hold loyalty to Ritsuka first and foremost.

  • Action Girl: Good enough to give much older Loopers a run for their money.
  • Evil Counterpart: Supposed to be this, but dropped the "Evil" part long ago.
  • Gender Bender: She's an alternate version of a genderbent King Arthur.
  • Sophisticated as Hell: You'd have to be to say 'I solemnly swear, my Master forged in fire… together, you and I are going to fuck up all the bitches.' with a straight face unironically.
  • The Stoic: Tends to take things with a unflappable attitude and a sword to the face.

     Lavina Whateley

Activated at the same time as Abigail and Lavina due to his bond with Abigail causing her to grasp on to him when she Awakened the first time. Acted as a Traveling Looper with her until the back door the FGO Outer Gods had was shut.

     Leonardo Da Vinci 
A Servant of Chaldea, and eccentric yet helpful genius.

     Goredolf Musik 
The third Director of Chaldea, expert driver, and local sane man.

  • Badass Driver: Is easily the best driver in FGO's Baseline, and that's saying something in a Loop where 'Riding' is a skill, upwards of the unquantifiable EX rank. And that's before Looping.
  • Only Sane Man: When your this even during the Loops, that says a lot about you.
  • Screw the Rules, I Have Money!: As the scion of one of the Richest Magus families, he has a lot of money to throw around every loop before everything goes to hell.
  • Tranquil Fury: The pirates: Drake, Edward and Jason had a taste of it when an anchor was dropped on his VERY expensive car.

     Oda Nobunaga 
A version of the titular Oda Nobunaga whose insanity falls on the side of (mostly) harmless, and a firm ally of Ritsuka.

  • Badass Boast: When looped in as a Grey Knight and finally in a situation that calls for cutting loose, she... introduces herself to Mortarion.
    “Oh, that’s hilarious. You should know who and what I am. I have been waiting to cut loose for so freaking long… You are ancient, and the corrupted Divinity of your master literally seeps from you. I was MADE to kill abominations like you! I AM ODA NOBUNAGA, THE MOTHERFUCKING DEMON KING OF THE SIXTH HEAVEN! 『THREE LINE FORMATION: THREE THOUSAND WORLDS』!”
  • Cloud Cuckoolander: Boy is she ever, even when not Awake!
  • Gender Bender: Technically. In-Universe she was female and always has been female thanks to Alt. Timeline shennigans. On the other hand she is capable of becoming male on a whim if she so desires.
  • Shapeshifting: Capable of this in Baseline due to her Demon King skill.
  • Sitcom Arch-Nemesis: Is shaping up to have this relationship with Sanson.
  • Smarter Than You Look: While she might seem like little more than an insane prankster with a love of guns and a flair for the dramatic, Nobunaga is an incredibly intelligent person, and often her crazy plans hold multiple layers, such as finding time to break into Area 51 to search for 'Subject E' while still being engaged in a world-wide chase with Sanson, or debating the philosphy of conflict and progress with others. She is also a Gadgeteer Genius.
  • Technology Marches On: She considers herself a 'Spirit of Progress', and heavily hates stagnation. Nothing gets her more riled up than being stuck in a situation where progress cannot be made, even on a societal level.
  • The Prankster: Even in Baseline, it's just gotten worse.

The titular count and protector of Ritsuka's mind and soul.

  • Beat the Curse Out of Him: His day job in Ritsuka's soul
  • Darkis Not Evil: Exposure to Ritsuka ensures that.
  • Failed a Spot Check: Somehow managed to completely miss the fact he was Looping, due to a combination of spending so much time in Ritsuka's head and sharing memories with them, dumb luck, and perhaps just not believing he should be one.
  • Not So Above It All: Usually doesn't participate in antics like other Loopers. He still does get up to some werid ideas on his own time, like the occasion where he dragged multiple Servants into Ritsuka's head for a party.
  • Serious Business: Tends to treat everything seriously. Others tell him to lighten up, but he doesn't.

     Jeanne Alter, aka Joan 
An evil clone of Jeanne D'Arc created by Gilles de Rais during the Orleans Singularity. Has since become far more than just that, settling in as her own heroic spirit, and one of Rituska's most stalwart allies. Has an extreme temper.

  • Art Attacker: Her first fused Loop was spend as [[{Kirby} Adaline, which combined with her baseline love of art and mastery of painting (Especially Manga), makes her Art Initiates Life powers extremely dangerous.
  • Chuunibyou: Extremely. Using German despite being French, carrying around multiple swords, her flair for the dramatic all lead to her being a massive Chunni when she isn't being a Deadpan Snarker.
  • Determinator: Like her prefered Master, an extreme one. To the point her contiuned existence and her sheer passion are in part due to her determination.
  • Hidden Depths: Would you believe that the 'evil' clone of a Saint is heavily interested in learning proper writing, painting, swordplay and more?
  • Playing with Fire: Her usual response to something pissing her off is to try and set it on fire.

Firefly

    Zoe 
Unflinchingly stoic second in-command of Serenity

    Kaylee 
Relentlessly cheerful engineer for Serenity

  • Sanity Slippage: Started getting dangerously close to Sakura Syndrome after one Loop too many.
  • Technopath: Can talk to machines. Given Serenity's problems changed with each Loop, Kaylee got seriously upset by it.
