The 13 problem-students that make up the Misfit Class of Babyls Demon School. The Misfits start off as a bunch of troublesome nobodies at first, but thanks to their many accomplishments over time, they've become some of the most popular and famous students at Babyls.


  • Adaptational Early Appearance: In the anime, the Misfits all appear during the opening ceremony instead of being introduced a couple chapters later at their classroom.
  • Badass Boast: At the start of their Harvest Festival, they all, minus Soi, gather around in a circle and scream out to both psych themselves up and intimmidate their competitors.
    "Get in our way and we'll crush you!! Bring it on!! Damn it!!!"
  • Birds of a Feather: For their Harvest Festival teams, each team has an underlying theme even if it isn't apparent at the start.
    • Team Iruma/Leid have the capacity for high levels of focus and patience, which allows them to learn from two demonic archers.
    • Team Clara/Elizabetta are capable seductrresses and learn even more from a powerful succubus.
    • Team Kamui/Kerori have strong affliliations to familiar magic and capable of controlling demonic beasts from a Beasttamer demon.
    • Team Agares/Gaap are elemental magic users who learn more deversified means of using their magics from a powerful elemental magic user.
    • Team Jazz/Schneider are skilled in tactical and analytics and learn to be more devious from a great tactician.
    • Team Asmodeus/Sabnock are both skilled fighters and who both don't rely on the true power of their bloodline powers or Wicked phases, and so learn to draw out their Wicked phases.
  • Can't Hold His Liquor: Everyone gets shit-faced drinking relax juice, a non-alcoholic beverage that's meant to be safe for underaged kids to drink. It turns out that it needed to be diluted in water in order to be sober, and reduced everyone into Alcohol-Induced Idiocy.
  • Challenge Seeker: They each are ambitious demons who love a challenge before them.
    • Wicked Phase Iruma gives them a Dare to Be Badass speech which leads them to trying to take the Royal One Classroom for their own domain. While arduous and difficult for some, each one of them gives it their all in doing what is needed to gain faculty and staff support for their endeavor.
    • When Soi is revealed to be the magificent musician only known as "Pixie", he promises his help to the Class in the Music Festival but only on two conditions. The first is he isn't to be the main spotlight, only accompanying them as a hidden musician. The second condition is he is not to be revealed by them as the musician at all. While Soi is concerned with how these might tie their hands, his classmates just smile. The rest of the class get excited by the prospect of these conditions. The resulting image is the page image of the other twelve Misfit students. Soi even lampshades this tendency of theirs.
      Lied: Well, I mean if you give us conditions like that, we can't help taking it as a challenge, you know?
      Soi: (thinking): Oh right ... these guys ...
      Jazz: Get promoted without being seen ... Is that all Purson?
      Soi: (thinking): They laugh in the face of hardships.
      Jazz: When all the Misfits stand together nothing is impossible. Wouldn't you agree?
  • Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: The Misfits are slowly developing into these as a whole. They are quirky, prideful, hedonistic, bombastic, loud, but they are also smarter than they look, more devious than they let on, and can be fierce and driven when they are set on their goals. The Faculty even underestimates them during the Heartbreaker Competition when six teams working together at various points prove capable of stopping Sullivan's release into the competition through their growth in skills, teamwork, and strategy. They are barely holding off four teachers at different points, but they succeed thanks, in part, to the Faculty's miscalculation.
  • A Day in the Limelight: One of the primary reasons the Harvest Festival is one of the longer Story Arcs of the series is because it makes sure to give all the Misfit students, with the justified exception of Soi Purson, a moment to shine. Paired up in teams for the Harvest Festival, the Misfits show off the following:
    • The Iruma/Lied team goes looking for the Legendary Leaf that's worth the most harvest points.
    • The Azz/Sabro team winds up in a duel with the Dorodoro Brothers to see who can gather up more harvest points.
    • The Clara/Elizabetta team show off their new seduction costumes to go about seducing other competitors into giving them their harvest points.
    • The Kerori/Kamui team puts their newly learned demonic beast controlling skills to use by creating an Animal Kingdom within the festival.
    • The Agares/Goemon team go about making a fortress within the festival that becomes the home base for many competitors that they take in.
    • The Jazz/Allocer team puts their newly learned deception skills to use by tricking and stealing harvest points away from other competitors.
  • Determinator: Despite how hard their training is, they still keep going since they did not want to lose to the adults.
  • Didn't Think This Through: A recurring criticism that is given to the class, usually by Kalego, is that they have a tendency to count their chickens before they hatch.
    • This nearly screws over their attempt to get into Royal One because while they got the signatures of all 30 teachers within 3 days, they didn't get all the faculty, which is what they agreed Kalego they do.
    • It happens again in the Walter Park arc, when Kalego calls out his group for celebrating their victory over their beast without making completely sure it is down for the count.
    • Happens again in the Music Festival when they realized that there was more than 12 members in the class, all of them need to be Rank 4 to stay in the Royal One classroom, and they've completely neglected to raise said person's level in the last event. Said person, Soi Purson, also as a bloodline trait of literally vanishing into thin air to avoid notice...and the Music Festival is all about being noticed.
  • Dub Name Change: In Japanese they're called the "Abnormal Class", as in it's spoken with Gratuitous English. The English translation uses the grammatically proper and much more fitting "Misfit" Class.
  • Famed In-Story: After gaining the Royal classroom and saving Walter Park, they became known as Misfits in strength and ability instead of weirdness. They gain further fame after their showings in the Harvest Festival and Music Festival.
  • In-Series Nickname: After their awesome showing at the Music Festival, the students of Babyls start referring to the class as the "Thirteen Crowns of Babyls."
  • It Runs in the Family: While similarities between family members is as common for demons as it is for humans, whenever the extended family for a Misfit student is shown, it's near-universal that not just parents, but siblings and cousins as well, will share the same personality quirks and general eccentricities as their corresponding student. Even adopted families like with Iruma and Sullivan have them display a startling number of similar odd traits. It makes things even more stressful for Kalego than usual whenever circumstances force him to deal with said families.
  • It Was a Gift: Just prior to their second year starting, each one is granted a gift from either their Harvest Festival tutor, a close family member, and in Soi's case, a demon who is impressed by his musical skills, in recognition of their growth and abilities. The gifts range from rings to earrings, headbands, and so on. These have another purpose besides celebrating their growth. The givers are marking them so members of the Thirteen Crowns, the three Greats, and those in the know, recognize them as demons of great potential.
  • Laborious Laziness: They study their butts off for the finals so they can enjoy their break and not take extra classes during it.
  • Prestige Peril: While non-lethal, the fact these thirteen students have been granted the right to learn in the Royal One has only increased their burdens and problems in school.
    • This is because no one in hundreds of years has used the Royal One since the last great Demon King. Holding this honor comes with following condition. Each member of the class needs to reach rank 4 Daleth by the start of their second-year or all of them would be removed from the Royal One.
    • As a consequence of them succeeding in that condition has granted them an even higher prestige. They are collectively known as the "Thirteen Crowns of Bablys" for all of their hard work and abilities. So, to prevent them from becoming too prideful, soon into their second year the teachers decide to break their pride by making them face against the teachers while protecting two first year students from the teacher's attacks.
  • Pride: As a whole, the class has had a meteoric rise in rank and prestige during their first year. They went from the laughing stocks and considered weird misfits to each one being at least rank 4, and Iruma rank 5. They have use of the Royal One, two of their members won the Harvest Festival and brought forth the Legendary Leaf, they won the Music Festival with a perfect score and so are called the "Thirteen Crowns of Bablys." Since the last event, they strike poses when photographed, they strut around on a high because of the claim and praise afforded them.
  • Ragtag Bunch of Misfits: They're known throughout the school as the Misfit Class for a reason. We have a timid boy who constantly is at the epicenter of major chaos, a prideful pyromaniac who is overzealous in serving said boy, a guy addicted to all forms of high-risk high-reward scenarios, a guy who has a full-on compulsion for stealing things, an extremely perverted owl that frequently harasses anything even slightly female, a few Blood Knights, Clara, and many more quirky characters. In spite of their wide range of oddities, or perhaps even because of them, they're pretty much the greatest demons (and human) the entire Netherworld has seen since Delkira was around, and several major catastrophes wouldn't have been resolved without their presence.
  • Rank Up: While it is expected as part of their growth as students to reach rank 4 (Daleth) before they graduate in six years of schooling, the teachers of Babyls decide in order to retain the honor of keeping the Royal One classroom and all its luxurious amenities, each Misfit must attain that rank by the end of their first year. If any fail, the whole class must leave the classroom. Prior to the Music Festival, only Azz, Iruma and Lied had that rank. Because of their performances in the Harvest Festival and the Music Festival, they each reach at least that high.
  • Smug Super: Since their second year, many of them have notably grown cocky and arrogant due to their achievements from their first years. So much they seem to have slacked off at their studies due to the fame they have achieved. The Heartbreaker Arc lampshades this, as the teachers decide to knock them off their high horses and crush them with all their might to give them a case of humility.
  • Those Two Guys: Two pairs have formed in the class. Jazz and Allocer, who tend to work together whenever the opportunity arises and both prefer plans involving duplicity and stealth, and Agares and Gaap, who both have elemental bloodline magics (control over earth and wind respectively), but otherwise are an Odd Friendship whose personalities are night and day. Perhaps not so coincidentally, both pairs had the same tutors before the Harvest Festival and teamed up during it.
  • Took a Level in Badass: They all started out with very low rankings but in their first year alone (thanks to Iruma's encouragement in moving into Royal One) they all became Rank 4 in just their first year alone (Excluding Iruma who became a Rank 5).
  • Took a Level in Kindness: They start off as pubescent Demons, which means they have at least some sociopathic tendencies, like launching weapons at people coming into a room and taking bets on how many hits the person receives. However, over the course of their first year, especially because of Iruma's influence on them all, they each mature to being kinder, caring demons who look out for their fellow Misfits, and later other people.
  • Training from Hell: In order to prepare for the Harvest Festival, they all take very hard training from their instructors. Eventually they managed to measure up to their tutors' expectations, only for the true training from hell to begin.
  • The Worf Effect: The teachers easily overwhelm many of the students in the Heartbreaker Arc, showing that despite of their increase in rankings, they still are powerless to the more experienced teachers. By the final seven minutes only Team Iruma and Team Alice remain and with one heart each.
    • Unbeknownst to the teachers and pretty much everyone else, there was one more team that survived to the end: Team Jazz. At the start of the event, Jazz asked Allocer to keep the smallest member of his team safe, which he manages to do successfully, even though he and his first years were eliminated.

Sabro Sabnock

Voiced by: Takuya Sato (Japanese), Ray Chase (English), Jaime Alberto Carrillo (Latin American Spanish)

Debut: Episode 1 (Anime), Chapter 5 (Manga)

Inherited Magic: Weapon Creation

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/character_sublo_5.png
A large and muscular demon who aspires to be the Demon King because it is cool. Sabro comes from a family of weapon makers, and serves as a primary rival to Iruma and Azz. In the initial Flying Race at Babyls that decides a student's starting demon rank, Sabro ended up going off the trail into the dangerous Cutthroat Valley area to prove his strength, which results in him taking part in a deadly fight against the valley's powerful guardian. However, Sabro's rescued at the last second by Iruma, which results in Sabro not only befriending Iruma, but he also realizes that there's more to being the Demon King than just being the strongest.

As a student at Babyls, Sabro joins the Demon King division given his interest to one day become the king. Thus, Sabro falls in with its members housing up in the library where they read up on Demon King history. Eventually, Sabro gets paired up with his fellow Misfit classmate, Azz, to receive special combat training from the Babyls teacher, Balam, which results in the two of them becoming the powerhouse duo of the Misfit Class.
  • Antiquated Linguistics: Has a tendency to speak in an exaggerated, bombastic way, including near-constant use of "thou" and "thee", most likely as yet another way to look cool.
  • Ascended Fanboy: He dreams of becoming this, as his love for the previous Demon King is so strong that he wants to be the next one.
  • The Atoner: After Iruma saves him from the Leader of Cutthroat Valley through kindness and compassion, Sabnock recognizes his own weakness and eventually how wrong his "strength is everything" mindset is. When he is tasked with getting Professor Buer's signature for the Misfits to enter the Royal One, the same teacher Sabnock injured on his first day to prove his strength, Sabnock seeks to atone for his foolishness and shows genuine contrition towards the professor. He kneels and reveals his wings' roots, a sign of sincerity and respect towards another demon.
  • Bait-and-Switch: When he gives the reason he wants to be the Demon King, it shows cliche scenes such as his big brother becoming his rival and it being his dying little sister's last wish. He immediately states that neither of those things happened as his brother is a pacifist and his sister is fine, he just wants to become the Demon King because "HE'S THE COOLEST!".
    • When he looks to join the Demon King battler, when he sees that it's nothing but nerds pouring over and theorizing about various texts about the Demon King, he is initially speechless. It first seems like he's shocked at the type of people in the club he was interested, only to quickly reveal that he's extremely excited about all the Demon King texts he's never read before (as the nerds chant "One of us!").
  • Baritone of Strength: He has a much deeper and more booming voice than the rest of his class, emphasizing his physical strength and direct powerhouse fighting style.
  • Big Damn Heroes: During the Heartbreaker Promotion Exam, he arrives just in time to save Uzu from losing her heart balloon to teacher Momonoki during the S.O.S Operation plan.
  • The Big Guy: He's the go-to guy when it comes to a character who directly utilizes his incredibly physical strength for combat, and complimenting his direct powerhouse fighting style, he's utterly massive for somebody that's only a first-year, making him the only student who's actually taller than the very tall Ameri.
  • But for Me, It Was Tuesday: Upon his first day in school, he destroys property and fights a teacher to gain recognition. When Kalego is listing the transgressions of most of the Misfits to explain why they are lumped together, he refers to Sabro's actions. Sabro's response is a soft, "Oh yeah" like this fighting was a common thing to him.
  • Character Development: He started out as a cocky jock who thought of himself as a strong demon and wanted to prove himself. He even went as far as attacking a teacher to prove his superiority, which got him in trouble. After a near death experience in Death Valley and being saved by Iruma, Sabro began to realize he's not as amazing as he thought and learned a lessson in humility. During the Royal One Arc, he learns to humble himself by going as far as bowing to the very teacher he attacked while giving a heartfelt apology for his rudeness and disrespect, something the teacher himself acknowledged. While he loves fighting and proving his coolness, he's come to acknowledge when something is beyond his ablities. As in the Walter Park Arc, after fighting a dragon with Azz, he told him that they need to retreat as they have no chance to win and that it would be more strategic to run away and find help rather than die needlessly. When Azz refused, he called him out for being foolish and pointed out how compared to everyone else, Azz hasn't grown at all despite being in school for so long due to his obsession with Iruma. Even Azz reluctantly acknowledged Sabro was right.
  • Chuunibyou: What with his obsession with becoming the Demon King for the sole reason that the Demon King is "the biggest," "the strongest," and "the coolest." Though he does eventually tone it down a few notches after realizing that if he wants to become the Demon King, he's going to have to be more than just a brash musclehead.
  • Chick Magnet: Not to the same extent as Iruma, but quite a few girls think he's handsome.
  • Combat Sadomasochist: Upon awakening his Wicked Phase, this becomes his personality as the black weapons he forges not only cause immense horrible pain in those they wound, the weapon then transfers it to pure pleasure for Sabnock.
  • Custom Uniform: He sure likes showing off his muscles with his own personal uniform.
  • A Day in the Limelight:
    • The Flying Race mini-arc (Chapters 5-8) focuses a lot on Sabro's introduction and sets him up as a rival to Iruma and Azz.
    • The Sabnock Residence mini-arc (Chapters 205-207) provides some focus on Sabro finally returning to his family where it's revealed that Sabro has a strained relationship with his father, and that Baal is his uncle.
    • Chapters 255-258 detail part of his experiences in the Heartbreaker Competition when he faces Atori and ends up releasing his Wicked Phase.
  • Dumbass Has a Point: While he's actually pretty academically intelligent, he usually disregards that intellect when it comes to doing anything that might make him look cooler. Regardless, even he could tell that fighting a dragon in Walter Park was beyond his or Azz's capabilities and that it wasn't wrong to want to retreat rather than die needlessly. Even Azz reluctantly acknowledged he was right.
  • Dumb Muscle: He does have a perfectly functional brain. He just doesn't use it much, and prefers to solve his problems with brute force because that's cooler. That said, he's far from being Book Dumb as he is one of the better students in the class academically.
  • Expository Hairstyle Change: Eventually, he starts to comb his hair back rather than have it stick straight up. This generally coincides with him being less standoffish with the rest of the class over his desire to be Demon King and also with him showing more intelligence than he did before. The overall change in look makes him more approachable.
  • Face Death with Dignity: When he think he is about to meet his end fighting the Lord of Cutthroat Valley, he accepts it without question. He stares at the beast and is intent to go down fighting, his resolve only wavering when Iruma suddenly shows up and he moves to protect Iruma.
  • Foil: To Azz. Where Azz portrays himself as proper and dignified, Sabro is very loud and runs on Rule of Cool. This is also reflected in their familiars, where Azz is a fire breathing Gorgon Snake while his is a Kelpie with water-based powers.
  • Friendly Rivalry: With both Iruma and later Asmodeus. In particular, he acknowledges Iruma as his rival entirely as a badge of his admiration and respect for him - designating him as someone he wants to surpass is the highest compliment he can offer. This throws off some more cynical characters who assume he's a Green-Eyed Monster instead. Iruma, meanwhile, isn't completely averse to the concept, but mostly just treats him as a friend.
  • Graceful Loser: Despite seeing him as a rival, he holds no ill will against Iruma and whenever he gets "bested", he happily congratulates his rival.
  • He Cleans Up Nicely: While he's already a major Hunk in his normal attire, the Music Festival shows he can look absolutely stunning when wearing a proper suit tailored to his physique and styling his hair to flow downwards.
  • Hidden Depths: While he appears to be the Dumb Muscle of the group, Sabro does have moments which show different sides to him.
    • Despite just meeting Iruma and not thinking much of him at first, when Iruma arrives with the child of Cutthroat Valley's guardian and jumps in front of the guardian's attack, Sabnock is shocked by Iruma's apparent sacrifice and tries to push him out of the way so the smaller boy isn't maimed protecting Sabnock from his own mistakes. He follows this up by recognizing the maturity in Iruma's wisdom to stop fighting and a peaceful resolution is gained despite the guardian moments away from killing Sabnock.
    • He seems to be a talented actor, as shown when he played the Demon King during the festival play.
    • He happily joins the batra dedicated to the Demon King even after learning that it's full of nothing but nerdy fanboys and fangirls who are the exact opposite of him in most ways.
    • He's also one of the smartest students in the class, at least academically. This is due to him being tempered by Iruma, having realized that a good Demon King is not only strong, but also smart. When fighting the dragon, he recognizes when he's outmatched and plans a tactical retreat, despite him usually being gung-ho in most situations.
    • He is also trained in playing the demonic piano and is the initial teacher for Iruma when he is assigned to play it.
    • In a true Deal with the Devil situation, his greatest desire is placed before him, a chance to become the Demon King, and he refuses. When his uncle, Ball of the Thirteen Crowns offers an endorsement of his nephew and notes with his academics and strength, Sabro'd easily be nominated the next Demon King with such an endorsement but Sabro recognizes that it's a short cut to the throne and would stunt his growth. He wants to earn the title fair and square.
    • During the Heartbreaker Test, he does his best to draw aggro from the two teachers present. When they realize that he intends on taking on both of them, he notes that he doesn't need to win; he just need to stall them for long enough so that the rest of the team can seal away Sullivan. This further impresses Blushenko Buer, the teacher he attacked just a year ago, who notes that Sabnock has come a long way in a very short time.
  • Hunk: He's actually very muscular and handsome, which is more apparent when he attends a Sabbath and has some of the girls calling him such. It helps that his clothes usually show off his muscular body.
  • Insane Troll Logic: Tends to think like this when it comes to his ideas of how he can be cooler than everybody else, such as fighting a teacher in an attempt to get instant fame, or seeing more limbs on a familiar as meaning they're stronger than those with less limbs.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Sabro is usually more of a cocky jock who's loud and thinks he knows better, which made him arrogant and selfish. After a near death experience and being saved by Iruma he learns to quell his jerkish behavior and become much more humble and considerate of others. He now acts nicer and displays a more level-headed nature as well as being generally nicer.
  • Like Father, Unlike Son: This is his perception of his father. Sabro feels he has a high ambition and the drive to reach it. He sees his father as a demon content to never be better. However, as Baal notes they are more similar than Sabro realizes as both are prideful and care about their family.
  • Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me: His bloodline magic can craft shields as well.
    • He uses one when taking a hit from the Carmine Dragon magical beast at Walter Park. The blast melts almost all of the shield and injures Sabnock, but Azz remains unharmed.
    • During the Heartbreaker Competition, he makes a shield to defend against a teacher's attack, then changes the shield to have spikes and attack the blocked teacher.
  • Macho Masochism: He's incredibly proud of his ability to withstand pain, and will frequently take hits he could have avoided in order to show it off. This is one reason he's useless at dodgeball.
  • Made of Iron: He took an attack from one of the beasts at Walter Park and emerged fairly unharmed and able to run without much trouble.
  • Mr. Fanservice: While Asmodeus is more of the pretty boy, Sabro is more of the Hunk type, as a lot of girls think of him as handsome and masculine.
  • My Sister Is Off-Limits: Comically averted. When Iruma and Silvia, Sabro's sister, come to him for his input on a certain matter, he initially assumes that they are there to get his blessing to start dating. And he cheerfully gives it, his only real concern being that it might be awkward if his rival became his brother-in-law. And even after they clear up that they are not dating, Sabro brings up Zeze and only seems concerned that Zeze might be trying to break her heart (having completely misunderstood the incident where Silvia publicly and repeatedly pronounced her love for him during the Heartbreaker Exam, which was needed to fuel his bloodline magic).
  • Odd Friendship: With Clara. She loves to climb on him like he's a tree. This makes sense once his sister Sylvia is introduced, she has as much energy as Clara does, who he adores.
  • Only a Flesh Wound: He's introduced with a plethora of weapons sticking out of him. None of them hurt him, of course.
  • Rank Up: The ranking owl starts him off at Rank 2 (Bet).
    • Sabro achieves Rank 3 (Gimmel) by scoring as high as 4th place in the Harvest Festival.
    • Sabro achieves Rank 4 (Daleth) by winning the Music Festival with his Misfit class to the point of impressing Amduscias, a master of music.
  • Red Baron: "The Golden Lion"
  • The Rival: Has somewhat of a (friendly) rivalry with Iruma, and a more intense one with Asmodeus that is brought out from the Walter Park arc onward.
  • Rule of Cool: Pretty much everything he does is because he thinks it looks cool, and the coolest guy he can imagine is the Demon King.
  • Shipper on Deck: He whole-heartedly approves Sylvia dating Iruma, but when they tell him it's not the case, he thinks they want to get married and wondered what happened between her and Zeze. They have to clarify that they aren't dating, but need his support so Sylvia can take on a potentially dangerous action.
  • Smarter Than You Look: Despite being a competitive loudmouth with a penchant for starting fights, he's actually reasonably intelligent, with him being one of the smartest students in Misfit Class. He justifies this by stating that since he wants to become the Demon King, getting good to excellent grades is just to be expected of him.
  • Spontaneous Weapon Creation: His bloodline grants him the power to create any kind of weapon made out of whatever material he is currently biting into.
  • Superpowered Evil Side: During his Harvest Festival training, he reveals he has only once entered his Evil cycle before to Balam's surprise. Knowing how dangerous his side can be, he initially refuses Balam's offer to train him in its use during their tutoring. During his second year, he returns to Balam and asks for help learning to control it. Balam plans to start after the Heartbreaker Competition and gives Sabro a special pill to enter it. As these are potent and dangerous, Sabro has to promise him that he won't use said pill outside of training with him unless his life is in danger. Unfortunately, due to Atori, he ends up having to access it during the Heartbreaker for that exact reason.
  • Tactical Withdrawal: It isn't something he would do at first, seeing as he saw even dodging weapons being thrown at him cowardly, but after his experiences with Iruma in Cutthroat Valley, he understands that sometimes the best course of action is to withdraw so one can fight another day and continue to pursue his dream. Because of this rather than continuing to fight the Carmine Dragon in Walter Park when it would be a Last Stand situation, he opts to get away from the beast and convinces Azz that fighting a futile fight would be a senseless death.
  • Tears of Joy: Experience this when he got into the Royal One, Manly Tears running down his cheeks out of sheer awe at basking in the glory of the place the former Demon King was taught in.
  • Testosterone Poisoning: A chronic victim. He's a genuinely capable, intelligent student who keeps tripping up over his own ridiculous ideas of manliness.
  • What the Hell, Hero?: He angrily calls out Asmodeus during the Walter Park Arc for trying to fight a dragon when they had no chance of winning and how its more strategic to run and find help. He points out his flaws and how he hasn't even grown since his time in school due to his obsession with Iruma. Azz reluctantly admits he's right afterwards.
  • Younger Than They Look: His large, incredibly manly appearance makes him look close to the teachers in age, but as each school year is specifically for one age (like in the human world), he's actually about the same (around 14 years old) age as all the other first-year students. This is even more pronounced when he's next to his sister Sylvia as she is absolutely tiny compared to him, but they're only one year apart.

Jazz M. Andro

Voiced by: Tetsuya Kakihara (Japanese), Ryan Colt Levy (English), Gerzon Torres (Latin American Spanish)

Debut: Episode 1 (Anime), Chapter 5 (Manga)

Inherited Magic: Furtive Glance

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fde7d77e_1844_4fd9_9ede_9daf9e4a5c93.jpeg
A student known for stealing from other students and teachers. Starting off as one of the higher ranked Misfits, Jazz is considered one of the top dogs of the class, and is viewed as the "older brother" type to some of his fellow classmates as the one who watches over them. He and Allocer later become the trickster duo of the Misfit Class after receiving special training from General Furfur.
  • Always Second Best: As good of a thief he is, his brother is apparently a superior one. It annoys Jazz to no end.
  • Batman Gambit: His plan for the Heartbreaker Competition is first buying a high end safe to lock his small Fledglings into for the duration. However, when Furfur reveals how this is a fake safe, he encourages Jazz to utilize the fact it's an excellent fake and trick the teachers. So, he sits openly with the safe after secreting his Fledglings away on his familiar who is wearing one of Soi's veils to obscure him from observation and move his Fledglings to a safer location. All he has to do is hold the line against the teachers from breaking him for the passcode to open it.
  • Boxing Lessons for Superman: For Jazz, Furfur's tutoring was this, improving his craftiness and learning new skills from the adults in Valhalla while working there.
  • Card-Carrying Villain: His family motto is 'the viler, the more beautiful', and he's genuinely proud of his kleptomania. Since Bablys is a demon school where Bad Is Good and Good Is Bad, though, he's one of the most liked and respected members of the Misfit Class. It helps that he's a Jerk with a Heart of Gold and a Challenge Seeker who's easy to point in the right (or, at least, the most entertaining) direction, meaning that most of his classmates experience his antics as a minor nuisance at worst and an impressive spectacle at best.
  • Cool Big Bro: Some of his classmates consider him one. He was irritated, but was secretly happy that they think that, given how much of a dick of an older brother he has.
  • A Day in the Limelight:
    • Within the Royal One arc, Chapter 56 is the first time you truly get to see Jazz in action as we watch him use his inherited magic to successfully steal away Kalego's notebook without being noticed.
    • He gets a bit of this in the Walter Park arc taking on the leadership role for his team of fellow Misfits as they try to take down the rampaging Mountain Bull.
    • Chapter 210 is centered around Jazz trying to train up his familiar in secret.
  • Godzilla Threshold: The Ear Blast Flute whistle around his neck is this. If he is caught stealing he can use that whistle to cause disorientation to the people around him so he can get away. However it is also called The Flute of Shame, as blowing said whistle also means you failed and it is shame on you.
  • Greed: With his desire for earning money and stealing, it's natural that his character is associated with the sin of greed.
  • Irony: He's known for stealing from others, yet he hates it when his brother steals from him.
  • Loophole Abuse: To show the fruits of his tutoring from Furfur, He and Schneider exploit the rules of the Harvest Festival to their advantage.
    • Their main strategy takes advantage of the fact that the Harvest Festival only disallows physical violence between participants to obtain points by stealing from other teams.
    • Later on, after he's disqualified, he and Schneider takes advantage that there's no rule against participants entering the dropout tent without withdrawing in order to effectively spy on the remaining competition.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He's a thief who has a shameless love for messing with other demons, but he cares greatly for his classmates and enjoys the fact they look up to him as an older brother figure. It especially shows through his familiar, where not only is it cute, cuddly, and friendly while also possessing Sticky Fingers, showing through the "familiars reflect their masters" rule that Jazz is actually quite similar to Iruma deep down, but no matter how embarrassing it felt to have such a harmless-looking familiar compared to his cultivated "cool badass" image, he couldn't bring it in him to mistreat or abandon it.
  • Kindness Button: Due to the fact he's dealt with a Big Brother Bully all his life, he developed a strong wanting for some form of younger sibling so that he could be a Cool Big Bro to them, and thus anybody that looks up to him as one will compel him to do right by them no matter what, out of a desire to avoid becoming like his actual brother.
  • Lovable Rogue: He's constantly stealing from others or using magic to fool people with his sticky fingers. He even stole from Kalego and managed to get away with it. Despite such a shady pastime, he's cool and likable enough that this acts as a charm point for him, even to the other characters.
  • Mark of Shame: The Ear Blast Flute, also known as the Flute of Shame. A tool he has on him in case he gets caught stealing and needs to disorient the people around him to get away. However using it in the first place means you failed and got caught which is a mark of shame on them.
  • Master of Disguise: One of the things he learns from Valhalla is a spell to change his face. One of his tactics during the Harvest Festival was to disguise himself as a fake report counter using that, a wig and some clothes to steal points from other smug, unsuspecting participants.
  • Musical Theme Naming: He's named after Jazz music while his brother is named after Rock music.
  • Mysterious Middle Initial: Andro M. Jazz. It is likely a reference to the demon Andromalius.
  • "Not So Different" Remark: He gives one himself to Spoo, his familiar. After a year of hiding the familiar for not matching the typical physical body split wolves have, Iruma notes how both are kind, friendly beings and maybe Spoo is just growing up. Jazz is comforted by this and even more pleased when he realizes Spoo stole all of the candy Iruma had hidden on his body without Iruma realizing it.
  • Oh, Crap!: His reaction to realizing that he was tricked by Orobas into attacking what he thought was his brother, which ends up disqualifying him from the Harvest Festival.
  • Rank Up: The ranking owl starts him off at Rank 3 (Gimmel).
    • Jazz achieves Rank 4 (Daleth) by winning the Music Festival with his Misfit class to the point of impressing Amduscias, a master of music.
  • Self-Imposed Challenge: Invoked. He wears rings on each finger that will ring loudly if he slips up even the tiniest bit when pickpocketing.
  • Sticky Fingers: He can't resist using his family's powers to steal stuff from other people.
  • Sustained Misunderstanding: Jazz knows Leid has an older sister and after watching the Evil Idol games he is of the belief Leid's sister is the mysterious Lindy who is part of the winning team. Jazz fails to realize that it is Leid, and when he meets Leid's sister at a Sabath, doesn't realize she and Leid are blood-relatives.
  • Take a Third Option: When Furfur does his "Which Hand is the Coin in?" trick, he eventually decides that, since it doesn't have to be in Furfur's hand, to snatch the coin mid-flip with his right hand and declares "Right!". Furfur breaks out the waterworks when he sees how crafty he's gotten. Unfortunately, Furfur reveals the coin is in his left hand, somehow taking the coin from within his hand.
  • Training from Hell: His and Schneider's "tutoring" under Furfur basically was to work in the Underworld Club Valhalla for 3 weeks after Furfur "sells" them to pay off his debt. To add insult to injury, Furfur's only involvment was to come in daily and play a game of "Which hand the coin's in" in exchange for early release.
  • X-Ray Vision: His bloodline ability is a variant of this. It allows him to see any hidden objects inside someone's possession and the quickest way to reach it.

Inherited Magic: Ice Façade

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/b49a1743_141b_4e3c_a5b7_f52621ef76fe.jpeg
Click here to see her idol persona, Kuromu
A seemingly shy demon who is secretly the outgoing popular 'evidol' (demon idol) called Kuromu. Such a secret was discovered by Iruma, which results in him having to take part in several evidol related events alongside Kerori throughout the series. Her overall goal is to one day become the greatest evidol. Later on, Kerori gets paired up with her fellow Misfit classmate, Kamui, to receive special training from Mister Hat when it comes to controlling netherworld beasts. Kerori turns out to have a cold "ice-queen" persona that dominates beasts into serving her.
  • Accidental Proposal: Her method for riling Gyari and bolstering their rivalry is to declare to everbyody at the Evidol Games that she's marrying "Irumi" as her way of rejecting Gyari. The declaration shocks everybody, and utterly enrages Gyari like Kerori planned, but when in private with Iruma she reveals it was a spur-of-the-moment thing which was all she could come up with on the spot, being quite clear that she didn't actually mean it. Unfortunately for her, everybody else fully believed her bluff, so now she has to maintain the lie.
  • A-Cup Angst: She doesn't bring it up often, but she is aware of her lack of development in her chest compared to Clara and Elizabetta. She is a little uncomfortable seeing them bathe with her during the Harvest Festival and can clearly see the difference between them and her.
  • Ambiguously Bi: While it's rather clear she has some level of affection and attraction towards Iruma, the fact her explicit reason for rejecting Gyari's love is out of a desire to make the girl keep pushing herself to greatness implies that, while at the very least she respects Gyari, she might not actually be against marrying her if she wouldn't abandon her career (and Kerori herself) as a result. Her blushing and large smiles everytime Gyari declares her love for Kuromu certainly shows that at the very least, she enjoys Gyari's obsession with her and may one day desire to marry her.
  • An Ice Person: Her family bloodline can create ice.
  • Ascended Fanboy: Chapter 117 reveals that before becoming an evidol, she was, and still is. a huge fan of them, supporting them from her home, not unlike how her family supports her career presently.
  • The Beastmaster: What she becomes after her tutoring, not only being able to control animals through her sheer beauty alone, but being able to manifest 2 familiars at the same time, which is noted to be impressive for just a first-year.
  • Beautiful All Along: Played with. In her day to day life, she dresses rather plainly and wears glasses that generally obscure her eyes and generally doesn't stick out, certainly not compared to Elizabetta. But in her secret life as an Idol, she dresses much more attractively and is extremely popular. But it's played with in that even her lower key glasses wearing persona can be charismatic and attractive when she wants to, as seen during the Harvest Festival.
  • Being Watched: During the Harvest Festival, she seems to have an awareness that someone is spying on her, Elizabetta, and Clara even when they are in a closed off hot spring. She is correct as Leid is using his powers to find them and spy on them for non-perverted reasons.
  • Beneath the Mask: Underneath her Shrinking Violet persona and her hyper-cutesy Evidol act are a rather hot-blooded Challenge Seeker with an envious and domineering personality... though the last part only comes out after her Training from Hell with Mr. Hatt.
  • Bespectacled Cutie: Both while wearing her Perception Filter inducing Nerd Glasses and without them, she's a very cute girl who emphasizes that cuteness for her audiences, but it's when wearing them and acting like her normal, mostly withdrawn self that she's at her absolute cutest and most endearing.
  • Big Damn Heroes: She, along with Elizabetta, arrive just in time to block Mononoki's attack after the treacher breaks the illusion binding her through sheer force of will and aims at the defenseless Team Azz and Team Camui.
  • Cool Big Sis: She has a cute little sister that thinks the world of her, and that Kuromu is very protective of.
  • Crush Blush: There are implications she may have developed a crush on Iruma, based by her thinking of him during her concert in Walter Park and during the Evidol Games. Unlike Ameri and Clara however, she is less prone on showcasing it. She also shows one when Gyari takes her bait and accepts her challenge during the Evidol Games.
  • A Day in the Limelight:
    • She gets a short arc after the Battler Party festival that centers around her secret work as a demon idol, and Iruma unintentionally learning about it.
    • She plays a major supporting role in the Music Festival arc acting as the coach for the Misfits to get them all ready to perform the "Hell Dance" for their festival performance.
    • She later gets a large arc dedicated to her, The Evidol Games.
  • Depraved Bisexual: It's downplayed, due to both the ambiguity of her actual feelings and the fact she doesn't go too far with it, but her relationship with Gyari certainly shows an almost sadistic side to her not usually seen. While Gyari's psychotic obsession with Kuromu would understandably be a turn off for anyone, it's not why Kuromu rejects her proposal, nor is it a case of Incompatible Orientation. No, the reason she rejects Gyari is because it keeps Gyari's eyes on her, with Kuromu delighting in riling her up and placing obstacles just to see Gyari rise to the challenge.
  • Dramatic Irony: She thinks Iruma is intentionally trying to gain more fame and attention to himself, unaware he is actually trying to go unnoticed as much as possible.
  • Emotionless Girl: Appears to be a trait of her entire family. She was one too until her grandmother showed her an idol show. It is later revealed that her family can express emotion, but do not have a high stamina for doing so. Which is why they don't attend her live concerts as they don't believe they would be able to handle the emotions.
  • Exotic Eye Designs: Her pupils are shaped like diamonds. This is especially noticeable when she assumes her Evidol persona.
  • Fangirl: While she has become an evidol herself, at her core Kerori is a huge fan of the practice and will watch other evidols and take photos to relieve her own stress and stop her evil cycle.
  • Flat "What": After the Heartbreaker Competition, she meets with her sister Chima and comforts the girl on the first time she failed to be number one, whether in grades or skill. Chima is thankful and regains her resolve to surpass Zeze as her rival, and then become Iruma's bride. That last one leaves Kerori shocked and barely processing that bit as Chima leaves the room.
  • Green-Eyed Monster: Despite secretly being a popular evidol, she developed a strong sense of jealousy towards Iruma because of how the latter easily takes the attention of people away from her. This dies down after Iruma, learns her secret identity, saves her performance by dressing as a demdol to stall for time, and as a result Kerori gets confirmation from her mother her family does love and support her if still distantly.
  • Hope Bringer: Kuromu uses her popularity and adoration of the general populace to help people trapped in the refuge center during the Walter Park terrorist attack. She helps them overcome their fear and panic, which giving into could turn them more violent later on, with her singing and charms.
  • Idol Singer: As Kuromu, a popular demon idol.
  • Ice Queen: When in her "Immense Beauty" mode, she becomes a cold and intimidating tyrant, though she's absolutely mortified about how she acted afterwards especially after the Harvest Festival due to Kamui and two other students continuing to treat her as a queen.
  • Irony: During the girls' talk, she is strongly opposed to students marrying each other before graduation. Later, Kuromu would propose to "Irumi" on live television (as a way of defusing Gyari's confrontation with Irumi).
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: She's stubborn and can let her emotions get the better of her, especially when she feels others taking the spot light from her (i.e. Iruma). Despite this, she genuinely wants to help her fellow demons blow off stress and make a difference. The best example of this is how during the Walter Park Arc, she dresses as Kuromu to help scared children be at ease during the fighting.
  • Nerd Glasses: When at school, she wears glasses enchanted to prevent people from realizing her identity as Kuromu, and they do well to highlight how she's quite the intelligent and studious girl, beings near the top of her class in grades and skilled at coordinating complex performances. She even leans into the "glasses-wearing nerd" image by acting extra withdrawn and jittery while wearing them, which of course is to avoid risking exposing herself. However, she later recieves much smaller spectacles from her tutor Mr. Hat that she begins to wear instead.
  • Power-Strain Blackout: She will pass out if she overexerts herself. More specifically, if she gets too worked up, her control on her ice magic can be reduced, and if used too much, she runs a fever and collapses.
  • Rank Up: The ranking owl starts her off at Rank 2 (Bet).
    • Kerori achieves Rank 3 (Gimmel) by creating an animal kingdom within the Harvest Festival alongside Kamui where the two of them displayed magnificent charisma and leadership.
    • Kerori achieves Rank 4 (Daleth) by winning the Music Festival with her Misfit class to the point of impressing Amduscias, a master of music.
  • Reluctant Fanservice Girl: While the outfits she wears as Kuromu are always designed to be as appealing to her fans as possible, including having a decent amount of skin showing, especially the area around her navel, she doesn't actually like wearing them, as the relative skimpiness compared to her usual attire embarrasses her. However, while the outfits embarrass her, she grits through the embarrassment, as having outfits that emphasize her cuteness and beauty are necessary to be a popular evidol.
  • Secret Identity: No one knows she is the evidol Kuromu. Iruma only finds out when he met Kuromu and notices the similar traits both have. During the Royal One Arc, she was actually willing to reveal she was Kuromu to help get the permission slips for the classroom transfer, but Iruma tells her not to because he knows she wants to keep that a secret. Something that causes her to blush. She eventually reveals this to Leid and Ameri during the Evidol Games Arc in an effort to compete with Gyari, with the duo agreeing to keep it to themselves.
  • Secret-Keeper: Due to Iruma, Azz, Clara, Lied, and Ameri helping her out with her secret evidol work, she's one of the few that knows about their respective evidol personas. Though it's technically her fault they have evidol personas to begin with.
  • Secretly Selfish: While she does want to help her fellow demons with her idol lifestyle, she also only enjoys having all the attention on herself, being angry or jealous when Iruma (or others) outshine her at a something.
  • Serious Business: Demon idols, and possibly performing arts in general. She is downright offended when Lied stated that he wouldn't risk his life in doing a stage performance.
  • Shrinking Violet: Invoked on her part when at school, but ultimately played with. It addition to wearing Nerd Glasses that prevent people from recognizing her, she acts a lot more skittish and jittery at school to aid the deception, since her Secret Identity "Kuromu" is a lot more outspoken and bold. Her personality as "Crocell Kerori" is less an act however and more her just overemphasizing her actual shyness while downplaying her boldness, and just as her boldness can still slip through when at school, she's shown to still be somewhat easily embarrassed in private, namely when lamenting how exposing her outfits as Kuromu are.
  • Tempting Fate: When the story reveals she is Kuromu, she has an inner monologue about how she is jealous of Iruma taking her spotlight in the school paper, but is happy at the concert because he won't be around to interfere. After one song, she sees Iruma in the crowd cheering and is shocked he is later selected for a personal meeting with her. This leads to not only Iruma putting things together to discern her true idenity but events lead to him in drag and becoming a popular idol himself. The paper is next shown with a picture of both above the fold.
  • Tsundere: Of the "A" type. She was truly grateful towards Iruma and his friends in helping her, but is stubborn and tries to act tough about the whole thing. She also hates it whenever Iruma is (unintentionally) standing out more than her, gets stubborn about keeping her identity secret, and often tries to force him in dresses to keep up her appearance.
  • Unknown Rival: Iruma has no idea that Kerori is jealous of how easily he was able to get fame. It especially doesn't help with Iruma praising Kerori on her ability to go unnoticed, which is an initial point of contention for her. She gets over it eventually, especially after she makes Iruma crossdress as an idol himself.
  • "Well Done, Daughter!" Girl: She believes her family is against her being an evidol as they never show up to any of her live shows and she wants them to experience happiness like she does. It is later revealed they always supported her and watch her shows at home, because they don't believe they would have the emotional stamina to handle it live.
  • You Owe Me: Durng the climax of the Harvest Festival, Kerori arrives to help Iruma and Leid save Clara by lending them her familiars as mounts. Kamui is surprised by this generosity, but she notes that this means both will owe her a favor. She calls it in after the Music Festival to get them to dress as evidols in the Evidol Games.

Lied Shax

Debut: Episode 1 (Anime), Chapter 5 (Manga)

Inherited Magic: Sense Stealer

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/313c35ad_0425_4674_9045_5b96def8c0f7.jpeg
A demon with the reputation of gambling and playing games in school. Lied is a member of the Babyls Gaming division given his interest in games, and has an incredibly obvious crush on his fellow Misfit classmate, Elizabetta. He later becomes one of Iruma's best friends due to the two of them getting paired up together for certain events. Eventually, Lied receives special training from the Babyls teacher, Robin, where the two of them play games non-stop to improve his concentration when it comes to his Sense Stealing bloodline, such as improving his sight and hearing ranges. Lied also ends up becoming an evidol after he's let in on Kerori and Iruma's evidol secret.
  • Armor-Piercing Question: Surprising enough he does this to Iruma, questioning his relationship with Ameri on whether she's a friend like the others. Granted, Iruma doesn't really answer his question, but this one question actually has a lasting effect on Iruma, and after attending a ball with her, this now causes him to really consider his feelings for her may be more than that of just friendship.
  • Ascended Extra: At first, he is just one of the the Misfit class members, not sticking out more than any of the other class members aside from Sabro and Kerori. However, he gets a big boost in attention starting with the Harvest Festival where he becomes Iruma's partner for the festival. Afterwards, he becomes one of Iruma's closest friends and gets a variety of chapters about various shenanigans he's involved with. At one point, we learn that Asmodeus is actually jealous of how friendly Lied and Iruma have gotten together.
  • Attractive Bent-Gender: He makes a pretty cute girl when circumstances force him to get Dragged into Drag, such as being roped into evidol shenanigans by Kerori. His cuteness is almost on par with Iruma, enough so that all three smiling adorably causes the hearts of other evidols to flutter from how cute they are.
  • Big Brother Instinct: He feels this way towards Iruma, thinking he's a like a little brother who needs protection. Unfortunately, Iruma has the exact same feeling towards Lied, and they occasionally get into arguments over who is the "little brother" in their relationship. For the record, Lied was born in September and Iruma was born in early October, meaning Lied is older than Iruma, but not by a meaningful amount.
  • Butt-Monkey: He could rival Iruma in this department. He tried to steal all the girls at a sabbath only to fail miserably and be the only one not to get a girl to like him (aside from Dosanko, much to his chagrin), and most of his other attempts to hit on or ogle girls often result in him being paired with other guys instead.
  • Casanova Wannabe: Even if he has eyes for Elizabetta, he tries to bring his friends to mixers, and realizes, to his horror, that they have a better chance with women than he does. When he tries to make himself look good, it fails spectacularly.
  • Character Development: As noted by his sister, Lied from a few months ago was a loner who had few people to play with, and now he is open, friendly, and caring to his classmates. Leid agrees as having hung out with Clara when she is in the Game Battler and his time with Iruma makes him feel like a big brother to them both and he wants to be a good one.
  • Characterization Marches On: Initially, he's portrayed as a heavy gambler (which is part of the reason he finds himself in the Misfit class to begin with), but that aspect is eventually split between being a heavy gamer and one of the biggest Challenge Seekers in the class, while the money-betting aspect is heavily downplayed to just occasional class bets.
  • Charles Atlas Superpower: He's near-constantly using his tail to support himself and move around, which means said tail is incredibly strong compared to those on most other demons. So when he's chosen for the Tail Wrestling event in the Evidol Games, and ends up pitted against other guys in spite of his desire to wrestle with girls, he proceeds to utterly curbstomp his competition in a fit of jealous rage.
  • Chekhov's Skill: Bachiko forcing him and Iruma to team-dance in woman's dresses during the special tutor training seemed like just a comedic moment at first, but the Lied/Iruma team-dance ended up playing a key role in the Harvest Festival using it to convince Kerori to provide them the information they need to search for the Legendary Leaf. Dancing for Kerori is also what ended up jumpstarting Lied's evidol career as he ended up as a member of Team Kuromu for the Evidol Games.
  • Cloudcuckoolander's Minder: When Clara is forced to join the Game Battler for a time, Lied takes over Iruma and Azz's job to try and control her antics. He fails early on, as seen when she grabs half a dozen things while he is trying to talk to her including the cord to one of his game systems, rips it off (and claiming it broke on its own) and costs him his saved data. He is so worn out, he takes time to read up on parenting techniques to better handle her.
  • Covert Pervert: Not to the same extent as Kamui, but Lied is pretty perverted himself. He gets extremely excited when he catches the three girls in their class taking a bath in the middle of the Harvest Festival using his magic, during a special chapter with him and Iruma he reveals he keeps dirty magazines, and he mainly took over for his fellow evidols in the Evidol Games during the Tail Wrestling event because it meant potentially touching and getting close to so many evidol girls.
  • Cowardly Lion: He often bitches about the unknown, but gains the courage to face those fears for his friends.
  • Crazy Jealous Guy: He gets insanely jealous when the other guys flirt with Elizabetta. During the guy's meeting, he expresses his jealousy towards Sabnock for grabbing and holding her. Sabnock did point out what he did was scripted, not romantically.
  • A Day in the Limelight:
    • Chapter 90 is focused around Lied setting up a Sabbath mixer to try to hit on some of the girls in his grade (Haruno, Azuki, Konatsu, and Dosanko). However, his scheme to make himself look better than Iruma, Sabro and Jazz in front of them doesn't go according to plan.
    • He partners up with Iruma during the Harvest Festival Arc and gets a considerable amount of screen time.
    • Chapter 144 is dedicated to him. Iruma comes over to Lied's house to hang out and play video games along with meeting Lied's older sister.
    • Chapter 181 is centered around Lied gathering up the male Misfits for advice on how to woo his crush, Elizabetta.
    • Alongside Iruma and Ameri, Lied ends up being one of the supporting members of Kuromu's group disguised as Evidol "Lindy" for the Evidol Games arc. Chapter 188 specifically is all about the role Lied played for the Tail-Wrestling game...at least before Gyari beats him in the following chapter.
    • Chapter 274 is all about him going to a Sabbath mixer to heal after suffering such an Epic Fail during the Heartbreaker exam...only for it to turn out that one of the girls at the Sabbath is his older sister.
  • Deuteragonist: Some story arcs will have him become co-protagonist with Iruma when Azz has doing his own thing. He has, ironically, have more successes with Iruma than without him when a specific arc is focused on them.
  • Dude Magnet: Much to his chagrin, he only manages to attract male evidols during the Evidol Games.
  • Epic Fail: Lied's efforts during the Heartbreaker Promotion Exam are a complete and utter failure. Needing to protect two heart balloons that his two first-years were given, Lied's group instantly loses one of them to teacher Robin the moment the exam started. His group manages to escape, and hides in one of the empty school rooms until they decide to head out and get revenge on the teachers for looking down on them. The moment they come out of hiding however, they instantly lose their second balloon to teacher Oswell. Thus, eliminating them from the exam before they actually got to do anything. Lied and his two first-year teammates did not take it well as they go about complaining for the teachers to go easy on them. Ironically, being eliminated before actually getting to do anything is what saves him from being demoted a Rank. Since he was taken out too early and too fast, there is nothing for the teachers to judge him for, so he is let off with a warning.
  • Everyone Has Standards: He finds his sister's habit of asking any boy younger than her if they have an older brother, or hitting on an older man, such as Kalego when he comes to do the home visit, to not be good behavior and seeks to protect the people from his sister.
  • Eyes Always Shut: Rarely opens them. This is in part because his Bloodline magic will turn his eyes black when he uses it. So hiding his eyes lets him obscure when he is using it.
  • Fire-Forged Friends: He is friendly towards Iruma from the start but isn't particularly close to him anymore than most of the other Misfits prior to the Harvest Festival. However, after pairing up and ultimately winning the Harvest Festival, Lied and Iruma become very close friends, often hanging out outside school. Indeed, Alice even begins to grow jealous of how close they have become.
  • The Gambler: He enjoys the thrill of gambling, and it ends up getting him in the Misfit Class.
  • Height Angst: One of the shortest members of the Misfit Class, he sits on his tail so no one can tell his true height.
  • Kansas City Shuffle: In his game with Orias, he steals Orias's sight to distract from the fact that he's also stealing Orias's sense of smell, allowing Elizabetta to use her bloodline magic on him without being detected.
  • Last-Second Word Swap: When Elizabetta accuses Lied of ogling her breasts and buttnote , he replies:
    Lied: I DO... NOT OGLE!.
  • Liquid Courage: Subverted. Even when drunk he couldn't gather the courage to tell Elizabetta how he felt.
  • Nice Guy: He's quite perverted and rather childish, but also a good guy at heart who gets along with everyone in the class.
  • Noodle Incident: Whatever he did that sent him to the Misfit Class. All we know is that gambling was involved and six students ended up in the hospital.
  • Prehensile Tail: He's often seen using his tail in order to avoid using his legs, whether as a seat or locomotion. He later reveals that he does this so people don't realize his true height. As a result, though, said tail is incredibly strong, which comes in handy when he steps up for Tail Wrestling in the Evidol Games.
  • Power Perversion Potential: Played with in that he knows very well with enough concentration he can take the senses of girls when they are in private moments. He will refrain from doing so, however, unless he has a non-perverted reason to look in on them at such an intimate moment. During his harvest Festival, he justifies looking in on Elizabetta, Clara, and Kerkori while they are in a hot spring because he needs to know their location and see if it was Elizabetta who stole the Vase of Endings from him.
  • Rank Up: The ranking owl starts him off at Rank 1 (Aleph).
    • Lied achieves Rank 2 (Bet) by scoring well on the first term final exams.
    • Lied achieves a double-Rank Up to Rank 4 (Daleth) by winning the Harvest Festival alongside Iruma. The two of them became said festival's young Kings by finding the Legendary Leaf worth 100,000 points and getting it to bloom.
  • Secret-Keeper: Due to Kerori recruiting Lied for the Evidol Games, he ends becoming one of the few that learns about Kerori and Iruma's evidol personas as Kuromu and Irumi. In addition, he witnesses Ameri being recruited as "Amelie" for their Evidol Game team.
  • Sense Loss Sadness: His bloodline gives him the power to temporarily invoke this on another person, hijacking their senses for his own use. Affecting more than one sense at a time puts a major strain on his mana, however. His tutoring with Robin not only helps fix the stamina problem, but also allows him to strengthen this ability while stressed.
  • Shipper on Deck: When Iruma was talking about concepts such as friends and best friends, Leid asks Iruma about Ameri, implying he supports the two in a relationship. He also goes on to consider them as making a good pair whenever he sees the two together.
  • Ship Tease: While he's second only to Kamui when it comes to appreciating the cuteness, beauty, and sexiness of the ladies, and once went to a Sabbath to try and pick up somebody, Elizabetta is the one girl he specifically wants to get together with, not only because of her beauty, but also because her friendly and playful personality strongly resonates with his interests.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: Lied looks quite similar design-wise to his older sister, Shakky. If Lied was drawn to be a slightly older woman, you basically got Shakky.
  • Tiny Schoolboy: Downplayed. He's doesn't have the notable tininess of those like Iruma or Kamui, but he's still short enough to get some Height Angst, which he compensates for by moving around on his long Prehensile Tail, making him seem taller.
  • Working-Class Hero: While the majority of the Misfit Class clearly come from some level of wealth, Lied's family is clearly working class as he lives in a big apartment complex unlike every other Misfit whose home we've clearly seen. He doesn't seem to have any baggage over it.
  • Yank the Dog's Chain: In the Heartbreaker arc, one of his teammate's balloons was almost instantly popped by Robin, and the only reason they didn't lose instantly was because Orias stopped Robin from using his bloodline ability, which can only be used once per day. Their other balloon gets popped later in a way that gave them no room to defend themselves or retaliate, leaving the team eliminated without having any chance to shine.

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/7d3d90c4_fffb_413a_8dde_339cbcac8ea9.jpeg
An owl-like demon who is both a huge pervert and a gentleman. Kamui's ambition is to become popular, which based on his mother's teachings, he grew up believing it can be pulled off by being a dignified gentleman. However, Kamui's path to become popular is constantly held back by his desire of displaying his honest feelings to the girls all around him. A trait he gets from his pervert father. Later on, Kamui gets paired up with his fellow Misfit classmate, Kerori, to receive special training from Mister Hat when it comes to controlling netherworld beasts. Kamui's Translator bloodline turning out to be a buff skill that increases the strength of the beasts he speaks to.
  • Badass Boast: During the Heartbreaker Competition, he faces Mononoki Morax and after successfully stopping two of her attacks with the aide of his first years' familiars declares:
    "I will deflect any attack!"
  • The Beastmaster: While training with Mister Hat, Kamui learns he has the capability to become this with summoned familiars as he has the potential to speak to every familiar in its own tongue and if he understands the culture of that familiar, he can better ingratiate himself and gain that familiar's help. During the Heartbreaker Competition he has the four first-years under his protection summon their familiars and he attains their help in holding the line and defending his wards.
  • Berserk Button: As a guy that is obsessed with women while also failing to get the attention of even one of them, seeing other guys be successful with women fills him with envy and anger, and if he sees guys and girls interact like they were flirting with each other, he will be filled with such intense fury that he feels the urge to attack them.
  • Birds of a Feather: In the spinoff manga, he forms an alliance with Utsu over their shared interest on women. This is subverted later on after Kamui finds out that unlike him, Utsu is actually good with the ladies.
  • Brick Joke: During the first Battler, Kamui tries to start a "Ladies Studies" Battler only to be told that first years can't create/recruit into battlers. A year and 263 chapters later, he tries again, but apparently didn't get approval as his sign states it's an unofficial battler.
  • Bound and Gagged: In chapter 320, the Misfits are taken to the beach for a special class. Before the fun begins, Kamui is bound and gagged by Kerori and left on the sands where he can watch but not move closer to any female in a swimsuit.
  • Chivalrous Pervert: While he constantly fawns over women, and often tries to find ways of indulging in his interests, when it comes to actually interacting with them, he almost always acts as a perfect gentleman (with the exception of trying to catch panty shots occasionally), even if only in the hopes one of them will accept his advances.
  • Combat Pragmatist: He is very much aware he is not a heavy hitter in power. During the Heartbreaker Competition when facing Momonoki Morax, he pulls out familiar summoning slips for his team and Team Alice to use for reinforcements.
  • Compelling Voice: A sub-power of his bloodline ability allows him to command other living things to follow his will. The farther away they are from his personal characteristics, however, such as his bird species in relation to controlling birds, the harder it is to command them. Also, commanding too many at once for an extended period of time heavily strains his mana.
  • A Day in the Limelight: The Operation S.O.S. plan of the Heartbreaker Promotion Exam Arc provides Kamui some screen time to stand out on his own. Along with his team-up with Azz's group, Kamui's backstory is delved into, and he fights against teacher Momonoki to hold her off and showcase his capabilities in combat. Particularly, what he learned from his special tutor, Mister Hat, where his Translator bloodline ability allows him to become the ultimate summoner by leading other peoples' familiars into combat.
  • Determinator: Even when he's at his absolute weakest in the Heartbreakers arc, he doesn't have any plans on staying knocked down. Even when he gets hit by an avalance of spells, he keeps on getting up, willing to buy as much time as he can possibly muster for his team. Though it turns out he's only really pushing through because he thinks having a big dramatic moment in the spotlight will make girls like him more.
  • Early Installment Character-Design Difference: He initially wore pants and shoes in the manga. Later on, his designed switched to being a Half-Dressed Cartoon Animal, which the anime follows from the beginning.
  • Hold the Line: He takes on the challenge of keeping Momonoki Morax at bay while his team and team Alice put their magic into the orbs to stop Sullivan from awakening. He knows he alone won't be able to do much, so he plans to have the first years summon their familiars to aid him. Even when his magic is used up and the familiars have disappeared, he gets back up and takes all of the blows, refusing to stay down.
  • I Regret Nothing: He says this word-for-word when Kalego notes that his constant harassment of women got him put in the Misfit Class, viewing his blatant ogling of the female body as nothing to be ashamed of.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: Well pervert with a heart of pervert really. Kamui portrays himself to the world as being a classy gentleman but acts like a pervert towards girls. But during the Heartbreakers arc, we see him stepping up to Hold the Line against one of the teachers while his underclassman complete an objective, getting horribly beat up in the process which is much more daring than anything we've seen from him up to that point. The following chapter is a flashback chapter in which we think we'll see what has caused him to act so bravely. And it turns out it's literally just to make girls like him more. He acts like a gentleman because his mother taught him as a child that gentlemen are beloved and respected. But he doesn't understand that being a gentleman is more than just dressing nicely and having proper manners, and he is completely oblivious to the fact that girls are creeped out by him. So he comes to the conclusion that he isn't popular with girls simply because he hasn't had a moment to shine like other guys in the Misfit Class rather than because he acts like a pervert. Funnily enough, his plan seems to work with one of the underclassmen under his "protection" for the event.
  • Lovable Sex Maniac: He is absolutely obsessed with cute and beautiful women, being very desperate for any of them to give him the time of day. All of it is Played for Laughs, as he primarily acts like a gentleman in his efforts to be noticed by them, and the worst he goes when it comes to his perversity is trying to catch panty shots.
  • Made of Iron: For such a short guy, Kamui can take a a lot of punishment and keep getting up, as seen in his fight with Momonoke in the Heartbreaker Arc
  • More than Mind Control: His training for the Harvest Festival involved applying this to his bloodline power, supplementing his ability to understand and control other living beings with Rousing Speeches and other encouraging words, allowing him to get others to do his bidding better while using less of his power, and thus less mana.
  • Odd Friendship: With Kerori during the Harvest Festival Arc. As the two are paired up under the same tutor, they develop a newfound respect and relationship. He even refers to her as his "Queen".
  • Rank Up: The ranking owl starts him off at Rank 1 (Aleph).
    • Kamui achieves Rank 2 (Bet) by scoring well on the first term final exams.
    • Kamui achieves Rank 3 (Gimmel) by creating an animal kingdom within the Harvest Festival alongside Kerori where the two of them displayed magnificent charisma and leadership.
    • Kamui achieves Rank 4 (Daleth) by winning the Music Festival with his Misfit class to the point of impressing Amduscias, a master of music.
  • Red Baron: "Erotic Maestro".
  • Sweet on Polly Oliver: Subverted. On seeing "Irumi" (actually Iruma Disguised in Drag) in concert for the first time, he comments that although he thinks Irumi is cute, he's not attracted to her for some reason.
  • Tiny Schoolboy: Even by student standards he's the shortest of all the class members, just barely the same height as Agares.
  • Too Kinky to Torture: Part of his sexual obsession with women also includes the occassional desire to be stepped on by them, no matter how painful it might get, since it's still a way of feeling their touch. Ironically this also explains why he fits the Made of Iron Trope that he's really a durable guy.
  • Translator Buddy: Since he can understand and converse with any other living thing, he's capable of acting as a mediator between groups by translating for them, such as in the case of Nafra, who is The Unintelligible.
  • Translator Microbes: His bloodline power is a magical version of this, allowing him to understand the language of and converse with any other living thing.

    Schneider Allocer 

Schneider Allocer

Voiced by: Shun'ichi Toki (Japanese), Landon McDonald (English), Gustavo Melgarejo (Latin American Spanish)

Debut: Episode 1 (Anime), Chapter 5 (Manga)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/34f3fa98_b379_4db6_bbb7_ea1c06312bb1.jpeg

An unusual demon with a lion's head who turns out to be the smartest of all the first year students in Iruma's grade. He and Jazz later become the trickster duo of the Misfit Class after receiving special training from General Furfur.


  • Art Evolution: In his earlier appearances he had small eyes and his face rarely changed expression, making his head resemble some kind of animal mask. However, after the tutor arc, his eyes became much larger and more emotive, especially when wearing his mask.
  • Characterization Marches On: Early on, he comes across as a bit airheaded and out there compared to the rest of the class, with his rather static open mouthed face contributing to this. After he gains his mask from his training sessions with Furfur, his personality becomes more grounded. He also begins to be portrayed as a bit of a ladies' man, with a minor subplot being about his relationship with a girl from Bablys that he is pseudo-dating.
  • Cool Mask: Gets one after his tutoring with Furfur alongside Jazz that, as seen above in Generals section, resembles a black muzzle. It's notable that he uses it more often than Jazz uses his, and he looks less silly while wearing it.
  • Adaptational Dye-Job: Perhaps literally. His hair is initially the same color as the manga depicts it, but after training with Furfur and growing it out, in the anime it becomes grey. Whether it actually turned grey for whatever reason or is just dyed is unknown.
  • A Day in the Limelight:
    • Chapters 134 and 135 shows off the key role that Allocer played in the Harvest Festival. With Jazz supporting him as his partner-in-crime, Allocer successfully steals away the Pot of Ending from the Orobas/Ocho team, which Allocer then hands over the Pot to the Iruma/Lied team so that they can bloom the Legendary Leaf.
    • During the Heartbreaker Competition, chapters 259 and 260 and 265 showcase his thinking and utilizing his first-year team's powers and his quick thinking to save one of Jazz's team from elimination by hiding her in his pocket.
  • Ditzy Genius: He is the smartest student in class and has an interest in furthering his studies, but had to have Kalego tell him that being constantly hit in the head is bad for learning.
  • Gratuitous Latin: As a demonstration of his intelligence, he will occassionally give a phrase in Latin from some classical text. When studying for the First-Year exams, he says, "Ars longa, vita brevis"note 
  • Hidden Depths: He has a few:
    • He's top of his class in Theoretical Learning.
    • He's the smartest student in the Class of Year 1, having the highest grade on the final exam and getting bumped up two ranks.
    • He's one of the academic representatives for Babyls.
    • He seems to be quite the ladies' man, if Soi talking about how Allocer went to a Sabbath with girls from another school is any indication. It's implied that he may be dating Furcas (the teacher he attended the special school event with while everyone else was at Walter Park)'s daughter considering he went to said mixer with her and Soi intuits that he's dating someone during their party right before the start of second year.
  • Loophole Abuse: As noted above, during the Harvest Festival, he (alongside Jazz) exploit the rules of the Harvest Festival to their advantage, abusing the fact that only physical violence is forbidden to steal points from other students and that there's no rule prohibiting students from going to the dropout tent without actually withdrawing from the festival, allowing him to spy on other students who are still participating.
  • Master of Disguise: Like Jazz, he also picked up the same skills Jazz did from the tutoring that allow him to effectively masquerade as someone else for cons. He effectively uses these skills to get the Pot from Orobas, allowing Iruma and Reid the chance to grow the flower and get back at Orobas for disqualifying Jazz.
  • Out of Focus: He initially gets the least focus time out of all of Misfit class students that aren't Purson. Aside from Purson, he's the only student not to be involved with the Walter Park arc as he was busy with an extracurricular class. Purson then proceeded to get an entire arc dedicated to him, while numerous chapters occur without a single Day in the Limelight for Allocer.
  • Rank Up: The ranking owl starts him off at Rank 1 (Aleph).
    • Schneider achieves a double-Rank Up to Rank 3 (Gimmel) by acing the first term final exams since he's the smartest of all the students in his grade.
    • Schneider achieves Rank 4 (Daleth) by winning the Music Festival with his Misfit class to the point of impressing Amduscias, a master of music.
  • Rapid Hair Growth: Downplayed. By the end of the Harvest Festival arc, his mane has already reached his backside.
  • Red Baron: "King of Trivia", which later becomes "The Beast King of Knowledge".
  • The Smart Guy: He is the most studious of the Misfit Class and ended the first semester with the highest exam scores of the entire first year.
  • The Strategist: After his training with General Furfur, Allocer becomes quite adept at thinking up long-game strategies and making quick decisive moves which end up saving the day.
    • During the Harvest Festival, he not only realizes he can leave with Jazz to the elimination tent and then return to the forest without issue or penalty, but also intercepts Koko Orobas and steals back the Pot for the Legendary Leaf.
    • During the Heartbreaker competion, when shots of his position are shown, he is looking at maps and planning accordingly. His team survives with Jazz's team until the 59th minute of the competiton with a plan to hold the line and keep three hearts safe even if he must lose one. When Atori attacks and they are rescued by the teachers, he realizes in seconds once Atori is dealt with the teachers will turn to attack and so hides away one of Jazz's team who can shrink until well after the competition ends, thus allowing Jazz and his team to be winners as well.

    Elizabetta Ix 

Elizabetta Ix

Voiced by: Kaede Hondo (Japanese), Natalie Hoover (English), Erika Ugalde (Latin American Spanish)

Debut: Episode 1 (Anime), Chapter 5 (Manga)

Inherited Magic: Full Love Gauge

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/76e94cf7_ee79_4b8d_9f0a_c7dd501b469d.jpeg

A ditzy succubus demon with the ability to charm people into doing what she wants. As one the most beautiful students at Babyls, Lied has the hots for her, and she's a standout student in Raim's succubus class. Eventually, Elizabetta gets paired up with her fellow Misfit classmate, Clara, to receive special seduction training from Raim, which results in the two of them becoming the seduction duo of the Misfit Class.


  • Ascended Extra: She starts out the manga as a sort of background character, only getting a few scenes and saying a few lines here and there, but starting around Ch.50 she grows into an important secondary character. Additionally, the anime gives her extra scenes and lines in earlier parts of the story, making her slightly more story-important before where she becomes so in the manga.
  • Brainless Beauty: She's one of the most beautiful and sexiest girls among the entire cast, with only a few like Ameri comparing in attractiveness, but as first implied on a grade chart before getting several instances showing it to be true, she's actually among the dumbest students in the Misfit Class, with even Clara being marginally more intelligent. It shows well through her rank, as despite all the achievements by the class, she was one of two members who were only at Rank 2 even after the Harvest Festival Arc, which is notable because the other Rank 2 member, Soi Purson, is that rank because he never really gets involved in class-based Rank Up stuff, whereas Elizabetta didn't go any higher despite genuinely trying thanks to utterly sucking at school mentally. She ended up needing to capitalize on her immense beauty in the Music Festival, to compensate for her lacking in brains, so that she would be seen as good enough to deserve a Rank Up to 4.
  • Buxom Beauty Standard: Like Ameri, she's very busty for her age, something that is part of why so many boys find her attractive.
  • Charm Person: Her bloodline passively makes other strongly like her and do whatever she wants. This does have its limits, however, as no matter how likable she is to somebody, if they experience strong enough emotional turmoil they'll go against her wishes. She also states she can't charm somebody she's in love with, but that might've been Exact Words in that she refuses to charm somebody she's in love with, not that she can't at all.
  • Cool Big Sis: She's considered as this to the rest of the Misfit Class. Most of them even call her "Nee-san".
  • Custom Uniform: She wears a uniform similar to the normal one, but hers has a collared shirt instead of the standard Sailor Fuku top and the midsection is removed to show off her stomach.
  • A Day in the Limelight: She receives a lot of focus during the Music Festival Arc alongside Soi, due to the two of them needing to stand out in order to reach Rank 4. It also divulges more into her character, as was started in previous chapters involving her.
  • Dude Magnet: She's a very cute and attractive woman, to the point she has the attention of numerous boys without any need to use her ability. Once she interacts more with other people and shows her kindhearted and fun personality, her allure grows even more, as the boys come to feel that they have an actual chance with her.
  • Dumb Blonde: She has blonde hair, and is one of the lowest scoring students in the class.
  • Early Installment Character-Design Difference: There's one brief moment in Elizabetta's first manga appearance that has her sporting a facial beauty mark. After that, the beauty mark never appears again.
  • Friend to All Children: She has a soft spot for kids as seen when she's playing with some babies when in the Walter Park shelter and she expresses concern on the futures of the children traumatized by the attack.
  • Genki Girl: Not unlike Clara, but she's quite a upbeat and bubbly girl.
  • Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: She has long blonde hair, and is nothing but a total sweet-heart.
  • Hidden Depths: Despite her apparent lack of intelligence as mentioned above, she's surprisingly aware of how much traumatic experiences can effect someone psychologically when she shows concern that the children emotionally scarred by the Walter Park could be followed by the trauma for the rest of their lives and possibly lead to them committing criminal or violent acts in their adulthoods.
  • Huge Schoolgirl: Though Elizabetta is in the same grade as all the rest of the Misfit class, she positively towers over every other girl in their class. Her height is even comparable to Asmodeus, who clocks in at about 5'10". The only boy who surpasses her outright in the height department is the positively gigantic Sabro.
  • Leg Focus: As a Statuesque Stunner who embraces being a Ms. Fanservice, she of course gets many scenes where her long legs are shown off heavily, especially when putting on the charm by wearing leg-exposing dresses and posing in ways to deliberately highlight their curvature.
  • Love Freak: As time goes on and she gets more open about herself, it becomes clear that she greatly enjoys everything to do with love, whether it's romance stories or loving other people. She believes there's always the chance any one of them could one day become her lover.
  • Manipulative Bitch: A justified case during the Harvest Festival Arc, as considering its every man (or woman) for themselves, she and Clara take advantage of their looks to gain ingredients from others but have no real malevolent behavior towards others doing so.
  • Ms. Fanservice: She's very tall and attractive with some notable assets to boot. This is something she takes advantage of during the Harvest Festival, using her beauty (and bloodline skill) to manipulate other students into giving her their harvest.
  • Nice Girl: She's a total sweetheart who's never shown any evil intentions to anyone around her.
  • Oblivious to Love: Ironically, despite her obsession with the concept of love, she apparently fails to notice Lied's genuine romantic crush on her.
  • The Quiet One: She doesn't appear to be shy, but she doesn't say more than a few occasional small lines in the manga until around chapter 50.
  • Rank Up: The ranking owl starts her off at Rank 1 (Aleph).
    • Elizabetta achieves Rank 2 (Bet) for impressively displaying her seduction abilities against other students within the Harvest Festival during her team up with Kerori/Kamui's animal kingdom.
    • Elizabetta achieves a double-Rank Up to Rank 4 (Daleth) by winning the Music Festival with her Misfit class to the point of impressing Amduscias, a master of music. She and Soi had to stand out the most being the only two Misfits remaining as low as Rank 2 (Bet) by the time of the Music Festival, which she stood out by playing the lead role as Lilith in the class' Lilith's Red Carpet performance.
  • Ship Tease: While she has the attention of several boys, with her being quite appreciative of their love, the boy she constantly shows the closest connection with is Lied, as they interact the most and she often singles him out when it comes to teasing and friendly interactions. She's also noted to consider Iruma cute and is considered part of his Unwanted Harem.
  • Smells Sexy: The way her bloodline power works is by emitting a strong aroma that influences other people. As a consequence, anybody who avoids smelling her or can't smell in the first place will be unaffected.
  • Statuesque Stunner: She'd be one of the tallest members of the class if Sabnock didn't exist, and she's both a famous beauty in-universe and the Misfit Class's resident Ms. Fanservice.
  • Succubi and Incubi: She's a succubus in appearance, powerset, and likely future profession. Unlike most examples, though, there's nothing remotely sinister about her - she's a hopelessly romantic Nice Girl who attracted her horde of admirers as much through her personality as through her sexiness and bloodline magic.
  • Succubus in Love: Despite being a succubus, she is a total sweetheart that is looking for her true love.

    Picero Agares 

Picero Agares

Voiced by: Takuto Yoshinaga (Japanese), Brian Anderson (English), Carlos Enrique Bonilla (Latin American Spanish)

Debut: Episode 1 (Anime), Chapter 5 (Manga)

Inherited Magic: My Area

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/3_3.JPG
Click here to see him without the sleep mask

A lazy demon who wears a sleep mask over his eyes while resting on a sentient floating cloud. Picero's usually paired up with Goemon given their past friendship, and for being the two misfits that have bloodline abilities based around the 4 primary elements. Picero being earth, and Goemon being wind. He also turns out to be a really good-looking boy underneath the mask. Later on, Picero gets paired up with Goemon to receive special training from the water-specialist, Lady Vepar, in order to further improve their elemental bloodlines.


  • Animate Inanimate Object: It appears that his floating cloud is sentient.
  • Art Shift: It's subtle, but when he's wearing his sleepmask the bottom half of his face is more cartoony and comical looking, but when his eyes are exposed his entire face becomes more detailed.
  • Astonishingly Appropriate Appearance: His hair just happens to look like a sleeping cap. And one of his most notable personality quirks is how much he loves sleeping (and generally dislikes being awake).
  • Barrier Warrior: His bloodline can be used for protection, as shown during the Harvest Festival where he creates a large fortress that doesn't get knocked down easily.
  • Berserk Button: He has a very strong dislike for loud noises, to the point that, if things get loud enough, he will not hesitate more than a few seconds (he is still lazy after all) to use his earth magic in order to make the loud noise stop.
  • Blindfolded Vision: Despite constantly wearing a sleep-mask, he appears to be perfectly capable of doing things that require sight, such as tests, almost as if the eyes on his sleep-mask function as ACTUAL eyes.
  • Character Development: At the start of the series, he basically loathed having to interact with other people or do work. He'd much rather just sleep. But the training he was put through for the Harvest Festival and his subsequent work during it made him realize that if he truly wants to be able to relax in the future, he needs to work hard now to be successful so later on he can take things easy. And being constantly bugged by Gaap to be friends has made him open up more emotionally towards those around him. He may be a constant grump, but for those he calls friends, he'll readily help out. During the Battler Festival in year 2, he even gets annoyed at Azz and Clara for being so hesitant to directly ask him for help.
  • Chick Magnet: His pretty face makes him popular with the female students once he starts wearing his mask less often, especially after the music festival when many girls gives him their numbers and ask him to smile like he did during the performance, much to his annoyance.
  • Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Despite his laziness, he is shown to be able to tear up a good chunk of the earth in front of him just from moving his arm.
  • A Day in the Limelight:
    • The Harvest Festival delves into his friendship with Goemon. Particularly, the Flashbacks of chapter 111.
    • Chapter 251 of the Heartbreaker Promotion Exam is all about him and making it clear that he hasn't been "taking it easy."
  • Dishing Out Dirt: His bloodline grants him the power to manipulate any form of earth, along with being able to sense things happening inside that earth. After his training for the Harvest Festival, his ability gets amplified to include Green Thumb capabilities as well, since plants count as part of the earth in a sense.
  • Expressive Mask: When he wears a sleeping mask over his eyes, the eyes on said mask still move as if they were real.
  • Fight Unscene: Most of his Heartbreaker exam fight with the teacher happens off-screen. Given that his teammates, Oolo and Pamela, are slackers that were finally making an attempt to take a fight seriously, Balam rolling over them was kind of obvious due to their inexperience.
  • First-Name Basis: Sometime between Agares helping Gaap get over his depression over what happened during the Heartbreaker Exam and the second Battler Festival, Gaap switches to calling Agares by Picero, his first name, when previously he (ever the polite man) only referred to Agares by his family name. So far, he is the only one to do so.
  • Flying on a Cloud: He is so lazy that he spends most of his time lying on an apparently sentient cloud (it has eyes and "hands") that carries him wherever he wants to go. From what we see of his family, he is not unique in this. Somwhat ironic given his powers that control the earth itself.
  • Hold the Line: During his First Year Harvest Festival, Kerori's forces demand he surrender his castle and all the points inside. While Agares tries to tell the dozens of occupents in his castle to leave and he will just give up, Garp notes that is in fact his way to hold the line and protect everyone so at least they can survive to fight another day.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold:
    • As time goes on and circumstances force him to interact with other people more, it gets revealed that beneath his laziness is a surly and standoffish mentality, with him greatly preferring to be left alone so he can sleep. That said, despite how abrasive he is towards other people, he's also subtly shown to not be all bad. He never tries to force others to leave him alone, and he doesn't outright discourage others from being friendly to him, though he does hate when people get overly clingy like with Gaap.
    • With Gaap in particular, he shows a much kinder side of himself than usual when Gaap nearly mentally destroys his two underclassmen in the Heartbreaker exam by showing them his face during a fit of anger. Though he frequently reverts to his curt and annoyed self, he took the time to visit Gaap at his house and raise his spirits.
    • With the comrades he ends up gathering in his Harvest Festival, he really doesn't want them in the castle he made as to be created at all he must think of the area as his bed. However, he doesn't force them to leave and even as more are gathered to his domain, he moves to protect them from monsters and other factions.
  • Laborious Laziness: As he puts it to his Fledgling First Years, the reason why he is able to laze around is due to how much he much work he puts so he is able to.
  • Lazy Bum: He enjoys lazing around on his floating cloud.
  • My Significance Sense Is Tingling: Given his connection to the ground, especially when he lays upon it, he can sense things much further away. During his adventure in Walter Park, he notices a build up of three strange magic sources before they become threats.
  • Odd Friendship: Between him, a rather irritable guy who'd rather be sleeping and Gaap, a big bundle of friendly energy. Agares initially was really annoyed by Gaap's attempts to befriend him, but roughly comes around by the Harvest Festival. And Agares ends up having the most concern for Gaap when the latter stops showing up to school after the Heartbreaker Exam, enough to show up to his apparently out of the way house to see what's up.
  • Oh, Crap!: He really doesn't like the fact Balam is the teacher to discover his team in the Heartbreaker Competition, considering him the most dangerous one of the teachers.
  • Pretty Boy: When he takes off his sleep mask and reveals his amazingly pretty eyes, in addition to his rather long eyelashes. He actually has an incredibly girlishly pretty face, to the point where Ronove feels his own beauty was being threatened.
  • Rank Up: The ranking owl starts him off at Rank 1 (Aleph).
    • Picero achieves a double-Rank Up to Rank 3 (Gimmel) for making an incredible stronghold within the Harvest Festival alongside Goemon that caused this year's festival to have the fewest ever dropouts. They rescued and took in many other students who came to view the stronghold as their home base.
    • Picero achieves Rank 4 (Daleth) by winning the Music Festival with his Misfit class to the point of impressing Amduscias, a master of music.
  • "The Reason You Suck" Speech: He delivers a blistering one to his Fledgling First Years who misunderstand Picero's laziness and methods, and when Balam discovers them and pops one balloon in his first attack just wants to give up then and there. Where they see him as taking the easy path, the one with the least effort in it, Picero states that the only reason he is as strong as he is, is able to laze about, is because he worked his tail off to become a Rank 4 in his first year and got the power to be able to finally relax and make an area to rest in.
  • Semantic Superpower: His tutoring strengthens his bloodline to be this, as he escapes the water net his tutor put him in by thinking the water as the "ground".
  • Spider-Sense: Another aspect of his bloodline magic is the ability to detect both mana and vibrations in the ground. It's what allowed him to detect the three mana concentrations at Walter Park used to summon the giant beasts and allowed him to put up a barrier in time to prevent himself and his classmates from being harmed by the dragon that was summoned next to them.
  • Tiny Schoolboy: Even with his cloud he rides on levitating him a decent bit above the ground, it's quite obvious that he's a pipsqueek.
  • True Companions: In chapter 334, Azz and Clara thinks he would decline their help, and thinks of ways to bribe him. When he sees and talks to them, he clarifies that he hates being asked for help from random people, not his own classmates. To him, there's a difference between being asked by your friends and being asked by other people you don't know.
  • Unkempt Beauty: Without the sleep mask it's shown that he's quite a pretty boy, which is impressive since he doesn't look to put much, if any, effort into caring about his appearance.
  • What Beautiful Eyes!: After taking off his sleep mask because a kid jabbed his eye, it's revealed he has dazzlingly beautiful eyes.
  • Your Size May Vary: Though he is always depicted as short, HOW short he is can vary, partially because most of the time he is lying on his cloud. In a line up at the end of the Music Festival, he is depicted to be about as tall as Clara, if slightly shorter. Other times, he appears to be only a little taller than Camui who doesn't even quite reach Iruma's waist.

Inherited Magic: Wind Blade

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/b6d6ddfa_344b_4d48_b084_97f024505f45.jpeg
A furry demon who is skilled in swordsmanship. Goemon's usually paired up with Picero given their past friendship, and for being the two misfits that have bloodline abilities based around the 4 primary elements. Goemon being wind, and Picero being earth. As the all around Nice Guy of the Misfits, Goemon's overall goal is to make 100 allies, which proves to be a bit difficult when it turns out that there's something about his real face that frightens people. Later on, Goemon gets paired up with Picero to receive special training from the water-specialist, Lady Vepar, in order to further improve their elemental bloodlines.
  • Antiquated Linguistics: He speaks in an archaic way. For example, he uses the Japanese Pronoun sessha (lit. my humble self) for himself, an old and now extinct pronoun used by samurai.
  • Beware the Nice Ones: Despite being one of the kindest and most polite students in the Misfits class, Gaap is the first character we've seen enter his wicked phase naturally in a fit of anger and frustration with his bickering underclassmen. The state he was in was enough to send a shiver through even an experienced teacher. Upon seeing his face, his underclassmen looked like they might have a heart attack.
  • Blow You Away: He's capable of manipulating wind, though he mainly uses it to form the blade of his katana.
  • Cerebus Retcon: His mission to gain 100 "allies" (in reality friends, but the Demon World doesn't have a word for that concept til Iruma shows up) initially is just a goofy aspect of his overly friendly personality. It takes on a different tone after chapters 272-273 which reveal that he, along with the rest of his clan, has a really really horrifying face. One glimpse can mentally destroy a person, Murmur had to use very advanced magic to not only stablize his own mind but also the two freshmen who saw Gaap's face full on (if just for a moment). So it comes to seem that Gaap's great desire to make friends comes from wanting to "overcome" how scary his face is.
  • Chronic Hero Syndrome: He will go out of his way to help people in need. In chapter 112, he does so to help other students during the Harvest Festival. Agares is clearly annoyed by this.
  • Cool Sword: He carries around a Japanese katana for fighting and training. Though the "blade" is actually wind rather than a physical blade.
  • A Day in the Limelight:
    • The Harvest Festival delves into his friendship with Picero. Particularly, the Flashbacks of chapter 111.
    • He gets a two-parter following the Heartbreaker exam (chapters 272 and 273) that delves into his character. Particularly, going into the reason as to why he has hair covering up his face.
  • Early-Installment Weirdness: For exactly one panel in the first chapter he appears in (with the rest of the Misfits), he had a waist length ponytail. The next time we see him from behind a few chapters later (theoretically the same day as his introduction), it is gone.
  • Elemental Weapon: His sword is actually just a katana hilt. He uses his wind magic to form the blade.
  • I Just Want to Have Friends: While the fact he's a demon who isn't close to Iruma means he doesn't understand "friendship", during the Harvest Festival he states his goal is "to make 100 allies".
  • Katanas Are Just Better: He seems to prefer Japanese katanas as his choice of weapon.
  • Horrifying Hero: Turns out that his face isn't covered by lots of hair for no reason. Whatever is beneath it is so terrifying that his family has a strict rule to never reveal their faces to others. Whatever was under there was scary enough that during the Heartbreaker test, Murmur, the teacher his team was facing shut off the live feed to the rest of the student body and yelled at Gaap's underclassmen to avert their eyes. The next chapter, we see Murmur gasping for breath, covered in sweat, while using high level magic to stabilize both Gaap and the underclassmen before calling for a medic. Gaap's face is truly that terrifying.
  • Nice Guy: He constantly recruited others in the Harvest Festival and proves to be a loyal and good guy at heart.
  • Nightmare Face: Apparently whatever face he has beneath all that hair is so terrifying that his family has a rule that they are never to reveal their faces to anyone. We don't see it ourselves, but the reactions of his underclassmen to seeing it are ones of pure terror. The next chapter, we learn that even a brief glimpse of it nearly destroyed their minds.
  • Out of Focus: Goemon and his two junior teammates got the least amount of screentime during the Heartbreaker Promotion Exam. The kicker is that unlike the rest of the exam teams, his team's elimination from the exam happened off-screen. This turned out to be on purpose and ultimately subverted as he gets a few chapters about what happened to him during the exam after the fact, and they introduce a new wrinkle to his character.
  • Master Swordsman: He appears to be a master in the art of the blade.
  • Rank Up: The ranking owl starts him off at Rank 1 (Aleph).
    • Goemon achieves Rank 2 (Bet) by scoring well on the first term final exams.
    • Goemon achieves Rank 3 (Gimmel) for making an incredible stronghold within the Harvest Festival alongside Picero that caused this year's festival to have the fewest ever dropouts. They rescued and took in many other students who came to view the stronghold as their home base.
    • Goemon achieves Rank 4 (Daleth) by winning the Music Festival with his Misfit class to the point of impressing Amduscias, a master of music.
  • The Thing That Would Not Leave: This is his relationship with Agares. He's very determined to have them be great friends, even though Agares finds him incredibly annoying. Agares does come around eventually, in his aloof way.
  • Token Religious Teammate: He as a child is shown praying to the demon god Harpnus that gave his family a form that hides their absolutely horrifying appearance from the world (hence all the hair), which is the first time anything like religion has shown up in the series.
  • Verbal Tic: He has a habit of ending his sentences with "de gozaru", as befitting of a person styling himself after samurai.

    Soi Purson (Unmarked Spoilers

Soi Purson

Voiced by: N/A (Japanese), Griffin Burns (English)

Debut: Episode 1 (Anime), Chapter 5 (Manga)

Inherited Magic: Detection Warding

Click here to see Soi Purson
A quiet and anti-social demon with black horns. Throughout the Misfits' first year at Babyls, Soi serves as a background character that his fellow classmates never notice, which turns out to be on purpose due to how his Detection Warding bloodline works. Eventually, Soi's brought into the spotlight when it turns out that he has to increase his demon rank with the rest of the class by the end of the first year. This left Soi stuck in a situation where he had to choose between standing out with the Misfits, or to fulfill his father's wish of becoming the next behind-the-scenes Family Head. In the end, Soi chooses to go down the path where he will achieve both, which results in Soi finally settling into being part of the Misfit group, and taking part in their class antics.
  • All for Nothing: All his efforts in the Heartbreaker Arc to stay hidden with his Kouhai are this, as while Soi does a good job hiding them, Atori easily spots them and pops his balloons with ease. Points for trying, though, since no one else saw them until the balloons were popped.
  • Animal Motifs: Bats, extending to his entire family.
  • Ascended Extra: While he still isn't anywhere close to being an important character for the opening arcs, the anime actually gives him a lot more screen-time than the manga, and he even occasionally gets to do things besides exist. Later played completely straight in the manga, since the need for him to Rank Up by the end of the year means he's outright forced to come into the spotlight, resulting in him finally becoming a permanent part of the major cast.
  • Back for the Finale: In the anime, he just makes one quick appearance in the last episode of Season 1 after having vanished for a majority of the season.
  • Black Bead Eyes: His eyes are always depicted this way.
  • Brutal Honesty: The first time he converses with the entire Misfit Class, he reveals the secrets of every male classmate much to their embarassment.
  • Calling the Old Man Out: In chapter 172 after winning accolades and high praise from a former Thirteen Crown, his father still expects him to leave school and music behind. Soi, instead, calls his father out for his outdated thinking and manner of speaking, telling him that he is greedy now and wants to be both in school and will take on the duties of leading the family.
  • Character Development: He starts as a shy, passive young demon who doesn't seek to stand out, to stay in the background as he is raised to do. However, after Iruma first starts to talk with him and later listens to him play wonderfully on the trumpet, Soi grows more confident in himself and his skills. His ambitions grow to the point he now has the confidence to call his own father out for his outdated views and proclaim his intentions to stay in school, be known for his musical abilities, and still be the eventual head of their clan.
  • A Day in the Limelight:
    • He gets a lot of screentime during the Music Festival Arc, which revolves around him trying to bond with his classmates. Justified, since he needs to rank up to Rank 4 to stay in Royal One.
    • Chapters 232-235 of the Heartbreaker Promotion Exam is focused almost entirely on him learning how to use his ability to make others invisible.
  • Declaration of Protection: When he initially despairs about his sucking at disguising his first year partners, not helped by them being more than twice his height, they both admit they had seen his Music Festival performance and how he won, with them respecting him and his skills and just being happy to be on his team. This motivates Soi to definitely keep them safe despite the odds, because "the Misfits are pros at beating the odds."
  • Deconstructed Character Archetype: For the Out of Focus trope. Whereas the average person of this trope is usually either forgotten or gets Demoted to Extra because of their overall importance to the story, both Purson and even the author deliberately invoked this by hiding Purson as a background character due to his family's magic and desire not to stand out. His family prides itself on hiding themselves and not standing out, so Purson being a background character is due to making sure he doesn't stand out so he might become the next head of his family. He actually has to break out of this in order to Rank Up along with the rest of his class to stay in the Royal One.
  • Everybody Has Standards: He has secrets on all the males in his class, but refused to spy on the girls, claiming he respects their privacy.
  • Fantasy-Forbidding Father: Soi's father doesn't want him doing anything that makes him stand out even a little (because the Purson family is dedicated to remaining unnoticed), and barely tolerates him going to Babyls at all. Soi playing trumpet in the school festival is enough to make his father force him to withdraw from school.
  • Forgettable Character: Both in and out of the series, to the point even his class forgot he was there. It is later revealed that this trope is his Bloodline Skill and that it's a family tradition to not stand out.
  • The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You: A combination of him being very shy, holding to his family rules about being unseen, and invisibility power resulted in him doing everything he could to intentionally act as an unnoticeable background character, which seems to also have an affect on the readers/viewers of the story, as he almost completely vanishes after his introduction, with him only showing up occasionally, and even then he is never front and center, always off somewhere in the background as a sort of Freeze-Frame Bonus.
  • The Gadfly: Following him getting closer to the rest of the Misfit Class and becoming comfortable enough to open himself up, he's taken to the habit of playfully messing around with them. He's even got the stones to play pranks on Kalego though this rarely ends well for him.
  • Hidden Depths: He's very skilled in playing the trumpet, to which a lot of students find his playing very good.
  • Invisibility: The main way his Perception Filter manifests is making him imperceivable to normal sight.
  • Motor Mouth: Whenever he actually talks, you can pretty much expect him to spend a few minutes saying a lot very quickly, which in the manga results in cases of Walls of Text that take up large amounts of panel space. It's implied that this is largely due to it being the first time he's actually spent much time talking with anyone after spending years bottling up his feelings. After the Music Festival arc, he isn't quite as overly-talkative considering he is more open about his feelings and desires with others, though he still has his moments.
  • Nice Guy: He's shy and quiet around others, but he's a good and friendly guy at heart. Though it turns out that he has a rather trollish streak in him.
  • No Social Skills: Due to the rules of his family, he is not allowed to socialize or even show himself to others, which causes him to freeze up when people swarm him and have long dialogues in conversations.
  • Not So Above It All: Despite having no issues revealing the various secrets of the Misfit class's boys to everyone, when Iruma later starts listing off his embarassing secrets just between the two of them, he's only able to get a few in before Purson begs him to stop.
    • Despite the fact that he doesn't abuse his powers to spy on girls, he is actually one of the more girl obsessed members of the class (at least as far as getting an actual girlfriend goes). At the "drinking" party, he is seen lamenting about how he cannot seem to get a girl before getting pissed at Alocer for apparently having one when he tries to cheer him up. And one of his embarassing secrets is that he actually went to Kalego for dating tips.
  • Not So Stoic: He couldn't help but crack up when he heard Kalego talk about love. He also starts sweating and trembling out of embarrassment when Iruma points out several of Soi's personal secrets, with him later crying over how he can't decide between honoring his family code or helping his class friends.
  • Out of Focus: Unlike every other character in the Misfit Class, after his introduction Soi almost completely vanishes from the story, only getting sporadic background appearances showing he's still around, even in the anime which gives him a few more appearances. However, when he finally gets a proper introduction, it's revealed that this was completely deliberate (both by him and the author), as a combination of his immense shyness and family rules had him purposefully avoiding being noticed by other people, including the readers/viewers. After the rest of the class start going out of their way to interact with him, he starts coming out of this and becomes an actual part of the cast.
  • Perception Filter: Soi's bloodline ability masks his presence from others. His brother's use of this ability is so good that he's actually been missing for years, which makes Soi the new heir to the family.
  • Power Perversion Potential: Defied, as while he has no problem using his bloodline magic to learn the secrets of his male classmates, he is courteous enough to not do the same to his female classmates.
  • The Quiet One: Even worse than Elizabetta! While Elizabetta had some small lines here and there prior to finally having actual conversations along with more interactions with her classmates, it took until chapter 148 for him to finally talk and have a conversation with someone at all! Which also shows that he is a big chatterbox.
  • Rank Up: The ranking owl starts him off at Rank 2 (Bet).
    • Soi achieves a double-Rank Up to Rank 4 (Daleth) by winning the Music Festival with his Misfit class to the point of impressing Amduscias, a master of music. Soi and Elizabetta had to stand out the most being the only two Misfits remaining as low as Rank 2 (Bet) by the time of the Music Festival, which he stood out by revealing himself during his class' Lilith's Red Carpet performance as the incredible trumpet-playing "Pixie" that people have been mysteriously hearing play music from the school roof beforehand.
  • Running Gag: He has a habit of popping in after eavesdropping on someone's conversation and cracking up about it.
  • Screw This, I'm Outta Here: He is prone to doing this anytime things around him get too chaotic.
  • Shared Family Quirks: When his mother visits him to have a chat about what he wants to do, it turns out that being a Brutally Honest Motor Mouth runs in the family, first by her being completely upfront about how she thinks that he should follow his own path and that their family rules are annoying, followed by gushing at rapid speed about how much she loves her husband.
  • Shipper on Deck:
    • When Iruma took time to listen to everything he had to say, Purson questioned on how far he went with Ameri at the Aquarium park, hinting he supports his relationship with her.
    • He also encourages Lied to be more honest and direct about his feelings for Elizabetta, but it seems to be at least partially to mess with him.
  • Shrinking Violet: In contrast to his normally stoic demenor, he's actually really shy with others and constantly disappears when his class tries to talk to him out of shyness and fear he won't be able to help them all rank up.
  • Spare to the Throne: He is the second-born son to his clan but the heir presumptive to the clan as his brother has used his ability to be unnoticed so well, he hasn't been found for years.
  • The Stoic: Even more-so than Opera! At least Opera has a few moments where they express something. Soi so far has had no moments of expressing anything beyond a neutral face. It turns out that this is less an inborn personality trait and more how he was raised to behave. When he's alone, his emotions tend to come bursting out in his Motor Mouth tendencies (which carries into his first few conversations with Iruma) and he picked up playing the trumpet as another outlet for his emotions.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: He looks practically identical to his mother, with the only real difference being her having breasts and pigtails.
  • Take a Third Option: Soi is eventually brought to a crossroad where even though he desires to stand out with his class at the Babyls Music Festival, he also doesn't want to disappoint his father, who wants Soi to remain in the shadows to become the Purson Family's next Family Head. In the end, Soi decides that he will work to achieve both.
  • Troll: Once he gets over his initial shyness, it turns out that he has a rather dry sense of humor and likes pulling pranks. He'll secretly follow his classmates around to get dirt on them to mess with them later and in chapter 204, we see that he was punished for trying to drop erasers on Kalego's head.
  • Unexpected Successor: He is the current heir to the Purson family due to his own brother taking the family tradition even further by not showing or revealing himself at all to the point their father can't find him.
  • Walking Spoiler: While he's been present in the class from the very beginning, with him having small cameos here and there, especially in the anime which has him visible to the audience more often, anything that actually has to do with his personality and character doesn't get revealed until the Cultural Festival Arc, where he's given A Day in the Limelight in order to flesh out his character beyond being "the background extra student".
