History Characters / HighSchoolDxDStudentCouncil

* WeakButSkilled: Compared to [[UnskilledButStrong Rias' group]] in Rating Games. They did research on them, using a gambit that almost worked but for Issei's newly-discovered power to read someone's thoughts through their breasts. [[spoiler:This bites them in the ass during the Azazel Cup, as their skill ultimately can't quite compensate for their lack of firepower, which ultimately prevents them from passing the preliminaries.]]

* SenpaiKohai: She's the only freshman in the council at the start of the series.

* SenpaiKohai: With Issei, as he is very respectful towards him

* CluelessChickMagnet: {{Downplayed|Trope}}, especially when compared to Issei, but he does have girls falling in love with him like Momo and Ruruko. Problem is, Saji [[SingleTargetSexuality only has eyes for Sona]], no matter how many times she shoots him down, and remains oblivious to their feelings. [[spoiler:By Volume 3 of ''LightNovel/ShinHighSchoolDXD'', Ruruko got fed up with waiting and decided she and Saji were BetterAsFriends, moving on from him.]]

* AscendedExtra: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. By ''LightNovel/ShinHighSchoolDXD'', Ruruko has become a part of the regular supporting cast, namely due to Sona being forced to become head of the Sitri clan but wanting Ruruko to keep fighting with DXD. So, [[spoiler:like with Bennia and Rugal, she decided to trade Ruruko, this time to Xenovia.]]

This page details the supporting characters affiliated with Kuoh Academy's Student Council in ''LightNovel/HighSchoolDXD''.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: She is the Council's president and the heiress to the Sitri Clan on top of being one of the most powerful fighters in the academy.

* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: She is the Vice-President and can use her powers to curb-stomp opponents in Rating Games.

* AlwaysSecondBest: Feels this way toward Issei, who has a much more powerful Dragon in his Sacred Gear. [[spoiler:During their fight in DX4, Saji admits that deep down, he hates Issei because he feels like he’ll never be able to measure up to him.]]

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: He achieves his own Balance Breaker and eventually becomes the vice-president of the Council.

* SempaiKohai: With Issei, as he is very respectful towards him

* ButtMonkey: He gets the crap kicked out of him in the first season of the anime. His only speaking scene has him getting one-upped by Issei, and his other foreground appearance is him receiving a dodgeball to the [[GroinAttack groin]] (courtesy of [[SuperStrength Koneko]], no less). The second season, which adapts parts of the novels that give him more screen time, treats him with more dignity.

%%* {{Meganekko}}

* {{Meganekko}}: She frequently wears glasses.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Blue of a similar shade to Xenovia.

* ChickMagnet: Not as much as Issei, but he does have girls falling in love with him, though he only has his eyes for Sona.

* BetterAsFriends: In ''Shin Volume 3'', [[spoiler: Ruruko gives up on her pursuit of Saji and settles on being his friend after being tired of waiting for Saji to get over his love for Sona.]]

!The Student Council

[[header:The Student Council]]

* CantCatchUp: With the exception of Saji, their overall strength haven't much improved compared to the Occult Club's constantly-improving members. This changes in Volume 14 thanks to Azazel giving them their Mid-Season Upgrade in the form of artificial Sacred Gears. [[spoiler:However, they're amongst the few major teams that failed to move past the preliminaries in the Azazel Cup.]]
* HeroOfAnotherStory: It goes without saying that this team ''also'' had their own battles, adventures and origin stories that allowed them to become as powerful as they are today.

!! Leadership

* MakingASplash: As a member of the Sitri Clan, Sona's magic abilities specializes in water manipulation, with her control over her techniques surpassing that of Rias, during her fight against Rias where she easily controlled large volume of water. She has also demonstrated the ability to change the form various creatures out of water, such as multiple hawks that flew in the air, serpents that slithered on the ground, valiant lions, wolves that herded together, and several large Dragons.

* TheStoic: Almost everytime, she is a calm and collected student. That's, [[NotSoStoic at least until Serafall appears]].

* TheStrategist: She has an unparalleled skill in strategy making, which allows her to command her peerage to great effect. Sona has proven that she is an excellent strategist twice, the first during the Rating Game against the Gremory Team which allowed her team to battle on level with the Gremory Team despite the difference in strength. The second was when the Stray Magicians and Magicians from the Khaos Brigade attacked the Sitri and Gremory Team, and she easily formulated multiple strategies to counter them while devising powerful combination techniques.

* YouAreInCommandNow: [[spoiler:Due to her father falling into coma (with the same disease Ingvild and Sairaorg's mother had), she becomes the new head of the Sitri family. Because she is no longer able to fight on the front lines due to her position, she trades Loup, Bennia and Nimura to Rias, Issei and Xenovia respectively.]]

* NotSoStoic: As soon as she saw Kiba after talking with Rias and Issei, who's shopping for Ophis' clothes, she [[LuminescentBlush blushes like crazy]] and could [[SpeechImpediment only stutter]]. In ''[=BorN=]'', there's another earlier moment, during the battle with Loki - Kiba mentions that he can think of nothing better than having Sona's Queen at his side, something which visibly surprises and flusters her, if only for two seconds.

* ShoutOut: Her Sacred Gear, Mirror Alice, is one to Alice in Wonderland. Her Balance Breaker, Nostalgia Mad Tea Party, is one to the characters Dormouse, March Hare and the Mad Hatter.

A senior member of the Student Council, whose drafting by Sona cost her four Pawn pieces due having a dragon inside him. He also wields Absorption Line, a Sacred Gear which happens to be a piece of the Black Dragon Vritra.

* AssistCharacter: While Saji doesn't have many victories over the main bad guys, it is noted that he greatly assisted in defeating various villains such as Loki, Georg and Bedeze Abbadon.

* ButtMonkey: He gets the crap kicked out of him in the first season of the anime. His only speaking scene has him getting one-upped by Issei, and his other foreground appearance his him receiving a dodgeball to the [[GroinAttack groin]] (courtesy of [[SuperStrength Koneko]], no less). The second season, which adapts parts of the novels that give him more screen time, treat him with more dignity.

* EarlyBirdCameo: While Saji doesn't appear until volume 3, he make minor appearances in the first season of the anime.

* HeroOfAnotherStory: She and Ouryuu have been tasked by Ajuka Beelzebub with locating the remaining two of the original thirteen Longinus, Telos Karma and Innovate Clear.
* InTheHood: As a pure-blood Vampire she is extremely weak to the sun, requiring she wear a hood while at school.

* NiceGirl: Unlike most pure-blooded vampire, Millarca is very humble, kind, and friendly to everyone she meets, becoming fast friends with Ouryuu and the Occult Research Club.

* WeakenedByTheLight: As a pure-blood vampire, she is extremely weak to the sun, necessitating she cover herself with a hood, muffler, gloves, a jersey around her skirt, and thick glasses over her eyes.

* TheStoic: He is man of few words and doesn't show much emotion.

[[/folder]]

* IrrationalHatred: As revealed in ''Shin Volume 3'', Ouryuu hates Ruruko to death for seemingly no reason. To point of [[spoiler: [[RejectedMarriageProposal coldly rejecting her marriage proposal]]]].

* NiceGuy: Is perfectly aware of the main cast's identities as Devil's and Angel's but does not discriminate against them for it.
* {{Polyamory}}: It is revealed that he has a fiancee from a member of the Kushihashi clan and plans to take Millarca as his second wife.

** He and Bova Tannin initially couldn't get along due to Bova's jealousy over the fact that Ouryuu was worth more Pawn pieces then him as well as the fact that Ouryuu declared himself as Issei's "Fist", a position that Bova had. The two later mellow out due to their mutual respect for Issei, as they become sparring parters.
