! Protagonist:
[[folder: Mimori Touka]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/toka_7.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Damn that Bitch Goddess!]]
* AbsurdPhobia: Justified. He's terrified of booze and refuses to partake. This is TruthInTelevision as there is a predisposition to substance addiction which gets passed from parent to child, and Mimori is terrified of becoming an abusive drunk like ''both'' of his parents were.
* AbusiveParents: Both his mother and father were abusive drunks who tried to "abort" him by shoving him onto a veranda, at age 10, in the middle of winter, after beating him up a bit, promising to give him more of the same if he made any sound, and the reason he ate any meals at all is because his mother, planning to cook for two, herself and his father, habitually made "too much," and gave him the left-overs, out of "pity." Fortunately, the neighbors ''actually had a conscience'' and called the police on them.
* AntiHero: Due to his experiences, he's one by default.
* AwesomeByAnalysis: Denied any form of instruction on how his powers and the RPGMechanicsVerse works, he figured it out all by himself, and can communicate with the slime Piggimaru despite the fact that the latter can't talk.
* BathtubBonding: Discussed. He and Seras argue over who is going to bathe first at one point. ItMakesSenseInContext. After a bit of back and forth, neither of them willing to stand down, he states "why don't we both bathe together then." The illustrations at the end of volume 6 reveal that Seras took him up on it, but at least she was wearing a ModestyTowel.
* BestServedCold: He strongly wants to avenge himself on Vysis for literally treating him like trash and arbitrarily dumping him in a dungeon with overpowered monsters and no sustenance, but lacking the means to carry it out, quests to find a way and bides his time until he can.
* BeyondTheImpossible: His "poison" debuff is so potent, it even affects undead, which is supposed to be impossible, and that's at level 1...
* BigBrotherInstinct: Do ''not'' abuse a child when he's around. Child abuse is a TraumaButton for him. If you abuse children, pray to whatever god(s) you worship that he doesn't learn of it, or worse, see it, because if he does, your death will be especially graphic. The mistress of the bar where Lizbet worked got beat up by Eve when she saw the abuse, before Eve took custody of Liz and Liz's "Back pay." Mimori didn't think that was enough, so he went back when nobody else was around, and ''really'' made her pay...
* BigDamnHeroes: Shows up as Gizan was about to rape Seras, to paralyze and poison both the bastard and his dragon mount.
* BoringButPractical: His special transmigration item "charitably" given to him by Vysis can provide a random food and beverage from his homeworld every few hours, when fed with mana. When thrown into a siege, or an environment where no other provisions are available, this is a definite life-saver, and is an important reason why he survived Disposal Ruins Dungeon.
* TheChessMaster: Is very adept at formulating plans, strategies, and tactics to meet his goals and using unexpected variables to his advantage.
* CombatPragmatist: When he fights, he fights dirty. He has no choice as his stats are abysmal and the only thing he's got going for him is the fact that he's got powerful debuff abilities with a near 100% effectiveness. The only being shown immune is goddess Vysis herself.
* ConditionedToAcceptHorror: His life under his parents was so horrific, he sees the monsters of Disposal Dungeon as ''less scary.'' He secretly very much wants to "thank" them for it, if he ever gets the chance.
* CripplingOverspecialization: He's got powerful debuff skills, and an above average mana-pool for his level, but he's otherwise completely helpless, being killed if he takes even one blow.
* DefensiveFeintTrap: He's not above pretending to be weak and helpless in order to lure his enemies into getting close enough to use his abilities on. In fact, he defeats the Soul Eater this way, which allows him to escape Disposal Dungeon.
* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: Quite literally. When Vysis asks him if he has any last words, he then goes FlippingTheBird at her and shouts "go to hell, Bitch Goddess."
* TheEmpath: After a fashion. He's damn good at reading facial cues and body language, even from creatures that don't have a face, like the slime Piggimaru. This becomes a plot point in the late chapters (178 of the novel) when he can tell what Seras is thinking [[SickeningSweethearts just by looking at her face.]]
* ForcedSleep: One of his starter "debuff" skills is Sleep level 1.
* AFriendInNeed: How Seras sees him [[spoiler: and later both Eva Speed and Lizbet also see him]]. He has repeatedly come to her aid at her most desperate, without asking for anything in return. She swears UndyingLoyalty as a direct result, which tickles him pink, even if he doesn't feel worthy of it.
* FriendToAllLivingThings: As long as they're not golden-eyed monsters, animals really get along with him for some reason.
* GoodIsNotSoft: Does this ever apply to him. Mess with his TrueCompanions and he will bend over backwards to see that you get a CruelAndUnusualDeath. Messing with the innocent and helpless, and letting him see it, won't do you any favors either.
* GuileHero: His most dangerous attribute is his intelligence. He has defeated monsters and enemies way, way above his paygrade by outsmarting them and exploiting their weaknesses.
* HappilyAdopted: His ''uncle and aunt'' treated him with genuine compassion, and he sees them as parental figures far more than his own parents.
* HarmlessFreezing: Applying the "freeze" debuff on a living being seals it in a block of ice for 300 days, and nothing can break said ice, not even himself.
* HardWorkHardlyWorks: Defied. His desperate struggles have made him immensely powerful. Get in range of his abilities, as an antagonist, and you're doomed.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: The abilities goddess Vysis called useless? They allow him to survive and emerge from the "disposal dungeon" Vysis treats as an execution ground.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Since his primary motivation is revenge upon Vysis, he doesn't see himself as any kind of "hero." The party that winds up choosing to travel with him ''strongly'' disagrees.
* InnocentCohabitation: When he and Seras start travelling together, and she vows to serve him, they share the same living space, but they're too busy being hunted for either of them to do anything more than simply change clothes at the same time, in the same room, back to back so they don't see anything sensitive.
* IShallTauntYou: Exploited. He taunts the soul-eater when it's paralyzed. This causes the soul eater to try and forcefully break the paralysis in its rage, causing it to die far more quickly than it would have if it just waited patiently for the paralysis to wear off.
* ItsAllMyFault: In the manga, he flashbacks to the day his parents locked him on the veranda, and at that time honestly believed it was something he did, or was doing, that drove his parents to abuse him, and if he was a better child, they would have doted on him and praised him, then his consciousness whisks back to the present, and he has an epiphany, realizing that some people are just straight-up evil and deserve death for their actions.
* IWarnedYou: While protesting his "disposal," he loudly warns the class that the moment Vysis sees them as useless, she will dispose of them too. His cries were ignored, but it isn't too long before she starts looking at the "D-rank" students and trying to dispose of them too.
* KnightInSourArmor: He does want to make the world a better place, and happily gives help to the helpless, when he can, without asking for a reward, but he's suffered so much abuse, betrayal, and contempt from ungrateful bastards that he's quite cynical. Then there's the way goddess Vysis treated him...
* LadyAndKnight: Gender inverted. He's the lord to Seras's knight.
* LeaveNoWitnesses: Antagonize him, and consider yourself lucky if people stumble upon your corpse.
* LethalJokeCharacter: What goddess Vysis failed to realize when she "discarded" him. She presumed his abysmal growth rate and debuff skills made him a burden to the rest of the "heroes," at best. She never stopped to consider his skills would be far, far more effective than similar skills she's used to and would make him an extremely dangerous enemy.
* LiterallyShatteredLives: Exploited. Applying "freeze" to any non-living object allows said object to be shattered into powder by smashing it with a hammer. This even applies to corpses. [[NoBodyLeftBehind Which Mimori uses to eliminate the group Asinth who was hunting him for money, and frame said group for the deaths of both Black Dragon Knights and a corrupt noble, and his retinue.]]
* MundaneUtility: He uses his "sleep" skill to treat Seras's insomnia.
* NecessaryDrawback: His debuff skills require him to be able to speak their name aloud, point at the target(s) with an open palm, and be within 20 meters or less of said target(s). Against particularly large or fast opponents, this causes problems.
* OneManArmy: When his debuff skills reach level 2, he can designate multiple targets with them, allowing him to solo armies, unscathed. Even at level 1 skills, he still tore through an army of monsters, targeting one at a time, then just kept them stun-locked until they died.
* ParentalAbandonment: When his parents realized that the law didn't agree with their mindset that "he's our brat, and we can do whatever we want with him," his father shoves him unto his uncle. Fortunately for him, his uncle treated him with genuine kindness and affection, never blaming him for the horrific behavior of his parents.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: From the moment he was thrown into Disposal Ruins, his policy has been "if you want to harm me, I'll just be faster and harm you first." This reaches its zenith when he encounters the mercenary party [Heroic Sword]. After he speaks with Toad and heard how fanatically racist they are, to the the point that they believe sadistically geocoding the Speed tribe ''is something to be proud of'', and consider them trying to peacefully coexist "evil", he throws their own standards back at them as he sadiscatlly starts to kill them. "It's your policy to completely crush people who disgust you. Well, I find you disgusting, so I'm going to crush you. You don't have a problem with that, right?"
* PoisonousPerson: One of the skills he starts the story with is "poison level 1" which is considerably more effective than it sounds.
* ReasonBeforeHonor: Facing a BloodKnight who wants a WorthyOpponent but has threatened to rape and murder your TrueCompanions when you meet again? Sure, agree to an honorable handshake, just to lure the bastard close enough to use your skills on him and give him a CruelAndUnusualDeath.
* RescueRomance: How he wins over his love interests.
* SevenDeadlySins: Wrath. He is quick to anger and TranquilFury. Though his rage is justified in that he directs it to people whose actions deserve nothing but scorn.
* SevenHeavenlyVirtues: Charity, Chastity, and Temperance. He offers a helping hand to the helpless whenever he can. He's got Seras throwing herself at him, but he keeps things innocent until he can secure them a safe environment, and he only fights or kills in self-defense, taking only what he needs.
* SickeningSweethearts: With Seras. He considers her the most beautiful woman in the world, and openly says so, loves to gently run his fingers through her hair, watch her face as she sleeps, and it even gets to the point where they greet each other with a "good morning" kiss!
* SpannerInTheWorks: His struggles for survival, by their very nature, are a major thorn in Vysis' side, though he's not aware of it. Ironically, [[SelfFulfillingProphecy it's all her fault.]]
** Wiping out the Nea Holy Knights, after [[MuggingTheMonster they attacked and tried to rob him]] stopped Seras from being dragged to Vysis, where the corpse would have been mounted and put on display in her sick collection.
** Wiping out The Black Dragon Knights stopped them from being sent to "train" Ayaka's faction of Class 2-C, saving the students from being murdered, [[RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil especially the girls, who would have been used as sex toys first, consent be damned.]]
** Eliminating Duke Zuan, and his entire Knight retinue, has put the kingdom of Uraz in a major succession crisis, since Zuan spent so much time running a gladitorial arena, and raping the female "winners" before killing them, that he's not sired any heirs. Thus keeping Uraz from meddling with Class 2-C, forcing Vysis to put off her scheduled purges of the more lack-luster "heroes." Not to mention that with Duke Zuan dead, the blood-fight arena has nobody in charge, and the slaves are now owner-less...
** The mercenary party [Heroic Sword] is using Nyaki to try to enter Faraway Country to try and engage in their favorite pass-time, genocide, at Vysis's orders. They abuse Nyaki, making her flee for her life, so she encounters Touka and tells him how they brag about being responsible for the elimination of the Speed Tribe. Well, Vysis, kiss that mercenary party goodbye...
* TheParalyzer: He can use skills like paralyze, sleep, slow...
* TheStrategist: Though he's always open to opinions and options from his travelling companions, he's the one that designs the plans, strategies, and tactics to deal with whatever situation they come across.
* TrueCompanions: How he sees and treats his party. He will ''never'' betray or abandon them, not even for his precious vengeance.
* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: In universe. His life is hell both on Earth and in this new world, with a brief respite of being raised kindly by his paternal uncle and aunt-in-law. As a result, he's quite jaded and wishes fatal vengeance upon goddess Vysis, even if that dooms the new world in the process, though he'd much rather avoid the last part.

! Mimori's party:

[[folder: Piggimaru]]
A slime Minori rescues... from other slimes.
----
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/piggmimaru.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:"Piggi!"]]
* CommonalityConnection: Mimori sympathizes with it when he sees it being chased by other slimes, as he knows full well how it feels to be bullied.
* HatesBeingAlone: Insists on travelling with Mimori.
* IOweYouMyLife: Mimori encountered it being lynched by five other slimes, and it would have died if he didn't intervene.
* TheSleepless: Slimes don't appear to need sleep.
* TheSilentBob: Communicates via gestures and simple color changes.
* TeamPet: How it's seen by the rest of the party, aside from Mimori.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Seras Ashlein]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/i_became_the_strongest_with_the_failure_frameabnormal_state_skillas_i_devastated_everything.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:My sword and my life are yours, My Lord.]]
* AdaptationalEarlyAppearance: In the manga, she shows up in chapter 2, bathing in a river. In the light novel, she's not mentioned until Mimori meets her on the road in chapter 42, well into volume 2.
* ArcherArchetype: In addition to being a MasterSwordsman, she's very skilled with a bow.
* BathingBeauty: Is introduced bathing in a river in the manga, and the light-novel loves to illustrate her bathing at every opportunity.
* BodyguardingABadass: Though she's no slouch herself, Mimori is ''far'' more powerful than she is. Still, he trusts her to watch his back, and take turns with him on watch when they set up camp, and she's [[SubordinateExcuse grateful.]]
* DebtDetester: After Mimori not only pays her a "finder's fee" much higher than she anticipated for negotiating the price of supplies on his behalf, but gave her the "Logan's Cup" that had an advertised price of 300 gold coins, which she desperately needed to ferry passage to the Jounta province, the one place where she might find refuge, she proposes becoming his bodyguard until they reach said port. When Mimori rescues her life ''repeatedly'' afterwards, she signs up as his Knight '''for life''' and gives him her UndyingLoyalty.
* ExhaustedEyebags: Which Mimori noticed when the two were shopping for supplies before challenging the Mills Ruins. She has to reluctantly let him lie her down in his bed and use "Sleep" on her to let her rest, while inside said dungeon, revealing herself in the process. [[SecretTestOfCharacter The fact that he doesn't turn on her is the primary reason she grows to love and trust him.]]
* TheExile: Chased out of her home country of Nea when it fell because her father "soured" the mood of goddess Vysis by refusing to hand her off to an ArrangedMarriage with a BloodKnight who wanted to rape and kill her.
* FallenPrincess: Used to be the princess of Nea, now spends her life on the run, fleeing from her ArrangedMarriage fiance who wants to rape and murder her, and the many, many hit men he hired, as well as the armies of ''all'' the countries in the world, because goddess Vysis wants to "punish" her.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Golden-haired blonde and unflinchingly honest, honorable, and noble.
* HeroesPreferSwords: She does.
* HonorBeforeReason: When Mimori gives her the Logan Cup, for free, because it wouldn't do him any good, and she really needed it, she protested that she didn't feel right taking it for free, so he agrees to let her be his bodyguard, at least until the Mills Ruins dungeon was conquered.
* AnIcePerson: Though the matter has not been fully elaborated on, she can summon weapons of ice in a pinch.
* TheInsomniac: Asking forest spirits to disguise her with illusion magic stripped away her ability to sleep on her own. Upon becoming Mimori's subordinate, he uses the "Sleep" debuff to ''force'' her to sleep, allowing her to get the rest she needs.
* IOweYouMyLife: Mimori has repeatedly rescued her from certain death, refusing any and all reward, so she swears to serve him for life. He accepts, not just because of her personality, but because she's a MasterSwordsman, and can watch his back.
* IWillOnlySlowYouDown: When she learned from Civit that king Ortra put a bounty on her head, and goddess Vysis ''also'' put word out for all the armies of the world to hunt her down, she begged Mimori to release her from her contract to be his bodyguard and guide, even offering to return the advance payment. When he insists that he doesn't care about any of that, and chose her to be his bodyguard, not only for her martial merit, but because he actively enjoys her company, she falls in love with him and dedicates herself to his service, for life.
* LadyAndKnight: The knight to Mimori's Lord.
* LadyOfWar: She isn't just physically attractive with a personality that's gorgeous to the core of her soul, she's also the epitome of elegance in battle. When Mimori sees her swordsmanship in Mills Ruins, he's awestruck and develops a huge crush on her.
* LapPillow: Gives one to Mimori after he wears himself out fighting an army of extremely dangerous monsters to protect her. He winds up sleeping in her lap for hours.
* LivingLieDetector: She can always tell when people are lying to her.
* LivingMacGuffin: Since goddess Vysis has marked her for death for the "crime" of souring her mood, by daring to defy her whims, just about every country has troops hunting her down.
* LuminescentBlush: When Mimori tells her she's the most beautiful woman in the world, [[LivingLieDetector and it isn't empty flattery]], her face and ears turn a nice shade of tomato.
* MasterSwordsman: She specializes in sword-fighting.
* MortonsFork: Death by exhaustion, keeping her illusion magic active at the cost of insomnia, or death by execution when she's captured. Fortunately, meeting with Mimori gave her a third option...
* OfficialCouple: It takes a while, a long while, but Mimori and Seras become completely devoted to each other, and inseparable.
* OneWomanArmy: Even at her most exhausted, if you're going after her, you'd better bring an army with you to stand a chance. This is highlighted in the Mills City arc when Black Dragon Knights bear down on her. She wipes out no less than 5 guys, ''and their dragon mounts'' in the blink of an eye before Vice Captan Gizan lands on-top of her with his dragon, pinning her to the ground, threatening her with sexual slavery for the affront of daring to defend herself.
* OurElvesAreDifferent: There are three types of elves in the story, High-elves, wood-elves, and dark-elves. She's a High-Elf.
* ThePeepingTom: She likes to peep at Touka when he's bathing, not the other way around.
* PervertedSniffing: On at least one occasion, she's gone and smelled Touka's clothes without his notice, and fantasized about him in response.
* PointedEars: To show that she's an elf, she's got pointed ears.
* SubordinateExcuse: Uses the fact that she's Mimori's subordinate to snuggle up to him, share his room, and lie down beside him. Mimori is ''well aware of it'', and likes it, but keeps everything innocent because there's too much life threatening stuff going on.
* TooDesperateToBePicky: She was at the limit of her stamina in Mills, which is why she fell for the 300 gold SchmuckBait from Duke Red Cley. When Mimori noticed she failed to meet at their appointed rendezvous, he sought her out and came to her rescue, again.
* UndyingLoyalty: When she swore to serve Mimori for life, she meant it. Mimori graciously accepts.
* WorfHadTheFlu: She is beat down, easily, by the vice-captain of the Black Dragons, but she was at the end of her endurance and had fought her way through the guy's subordinates, and their dragon mounts. In a fair fight, it's likely she would have beat him and his mount with ease, which he acknowledges.

[[folder: Eve Speed]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eve_93.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Her human form.]]A beast-man gladiator Mimori rescues from the town of Mills, both because it's the right thing to do, and because she's the key to finding the "counter-indicated witch" that might, just might, have the means to teach Mimori how to deal with Vysis.
----
* AllForNothing: Two years fighting in a gladiatorial arena for her freedom and the freedom of Lizbet, but the Duke of Mills had no intention of honoring his end, planning to poison her on her last bout.
* {{Beastman}}: Has so many animalistic features that the Takaro sisters mistake her for a monster at one point. Said sisters are properly apologetic when they realize their error.
* TheCakeIsALie: Was promised her own freedom, and that of Lizbet, if she became the undefeated champion of a multi-year fight-to-the-death tournament, but the last fight was sabotaged, and the tournament organizers were so smug, they ''bragged about it'' where she could hear them. What's worse is that they ''also brag'' that if she somehow still won the fight, they were never planning on keeping their end of the bargain, [[ReleasedToElsewhere killing both her and Lizbet the moment people stopped watching.]]
* DebtDetester: Mamori fulfilled his end of the deal, bringing her and Lizbet to a safe place, and freeing them from the scorn of Uraz. She follows them into harm anyway because she feels indebted for Seras for protecting Liz from Duke Zuan's soldiers and their depravity.
* ForcedPrizeFight: Was in one for years prior to the start of the story. Flees with Mimori the moment she realizes she was never going to be given her prize for winning.
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: She has a tendency to put her trust in the untrustworthy and suspect the trustworthy. She trusted Duke Zuan would keep his end of the years-long tournament and free both her and Lizbet, and turned on Touka with distrust when he told her of the duke's reputation. Fortunately, she investigated and learned the truth before it was too late.
* IAmNotPretty: Justified. Since she never shape-shifted to a human form before, she doesn't know how gorgeous her human form is.
* MadeASlave: Her home village burned down, she fled from slavers, until she and Lizbet ran into a swarm of monsters, forcing her to turn around and fall right into the slavers' arms.
* MamaBear: Mess with Lizbet and your life is forfeit.
* PantheraAwesome: She's a leopard-woman, especially after the "Witch of Taboos" give her gear that allows for VoluntaryShapeshifting, so she can go more "human" or "beast" at will.
* SpiritedCompetitor: Fights for the thrill of the challenge.
* StupidGood: She tends to be a bit too honest, honorable, and upright for her own good, keeping her end of a bargain when the other party does not.
* ThisIsUnforgivable: Had Duke Zuan ''only'' wronged her and sincerely apologized, Eve might have forgiven him, despite knowing that he's entirely untrustworthy. Unfortunately for him, he ''bragged'' about planning to force Lizbet to wear Eve's hide as a cloak, use her as a SexSlave, and then dispose of her in a brothel when he got bored. These plans to brutalize and traumatize Lizbet sealed his fate.
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: After meeting with Erika and being given a special magicla tool, she can go more "beast" or "human" at will.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Lizbet]]
A dark elf little girl cared for by Eve Speed.
----
* BadassAndChildDuo: The child to Eve's badass.
* CheerfulChild: Despite the abuse she received at the tavern, she never let it destroy her youthful innocence and wonder. Mimori is actually quite jealous about it.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: Abused by the tavern mistress that "employed" her, taking out customer frustrations and complaints, no matter how illegitimate, on her hide.
* HostageSituation: She's the hostage to compel Eve into the ForcedPrizeFight.
* MadeASlave: Just like Eve Speed, she was enslaved when her home was burned down.
* OurElvesAreDifferent: She's a dark-elf.
* SupportPartyMember: Is the only member of Mimori's party that can cook.
* SupremeChef: Is an excellent cook.
* SweetTooth: She loves the confectionery that Mimori can provide from his home-world through his unique item.
* TraumaButton: Loud noises. The tavern matron who "employed" her took great pleasure screaming ''right in her ear'' as a prelude to punishment for even the tiniest mistake, real or imagined. Mamori slapping a wall, loudly, and seeing her flinch in response clued him in on it, so he made said matron suffer for it.
* WorkplaceAcquiredAbilities: As a direct result of her "employment" at an inn, she learned how to be an excellent chef and homemaker. Mimori's entire party is grateful.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Color illustrations show her hair as a very pale blue.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Erika]]
The contra-indicated witch
----
* ItsPersonal: If Eve could identify the people who genocided the Speed Tribe Erika would have waged bloody vengeance on them.
* ObstructiveCodeOfConduct: She is magically fixed to the building that is her home. She can not leave.
* TheTeamBenefactor: She provides Touka's group with a great deal of goods, especially the magical ATV and a bunch of golems, which helped tip the fight in rescuing Cattleya and Ayaka from a swarm of gold-eyed monsters and two demon king generals. Ayaka killed one while Touka killed the other.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Nyaki]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nyaki.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350: Thanks for helping me, Touka NYA!]]The sacred beast Touka and Seras rescue from [Heroic Sword].
----
* CatGirl: Has cat ears on her head.
* CheerfulChild: Once away from the mercenary band [Heroic Sword], she's a sweet and happy child.
* ChildrenAreInnocent: She did nothing wrong, and when she met Touka and Seras, repeatedly tried to warn them about [Heroic Sword], even willing to sacrifice herself to let Touka and Seras escape. This made Touka ''even more vengeful'' against the abuse this poor girl recieved.
* HappilyAdopted: She was adopted by Nyantan's mother.
* OneDegreeOfSeparation: She's Nyantan Keekipat's step-sister, by adoption.
* VerbalTic: Ends all her sentences with "Nya."
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Is described as having pink hair.

! Classmates:

[[folder: Ayaka Sogou]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ayaka_9.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Mimori, classmates, I'm sorry...]]
* AdaptationalModesty: In the novel, she frequently complains that Vysis put her into a ChainmailBikini. In the manga, her armor is a practical, if form-fitting, suit of plate-mail with chain leggings.
* AdaptationalWimp: In the original novel, she was able to parry a blow from Vysis when the latter attacked her, but could not deal with the follow-up. In the manga, Vysis simply renders her unconscious with a karate chop to the neck when her back was turned.
* AttackAttackAttack: Her only boost is to her attack stat, as such, she takes the vanguard when going into battle.
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Aside from the duties of class president, she stands up for Mimori against goddess Vysis because he stood up for her when Oyamada was giving her grief on the school bus.
* BeingGoodSucks: Her life has majorly sucked upon getting to this new world. Taking her role as class president seriously, standing up for Mimori, gets her rendered unconscious by Vysis and mocked for it by most of the class. She's constantly under the SwordOfDamocles, worrying that the D-ranked students will get purged by Vysis on a whim. She's paired with a GlorySeeker who kill steals from her, keeping her from advancing. Lastly, ''precisely because of said lack of advancement'', she's downgraded from the coveted "S-rank" title to "B-rank" with the threat that downgrading too often will result in "disposal."
* TheChainsOfCommanding: She takes her role as class president seriously and does her best to protect her classmates. Goddess Vysis exploits this to force her to fight.
* ClassRepresentative: She's the class president of 2-C.
* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: Which she awakens in chapter 182. She remembers a martial arts technique she was trained in as a child, and warned by her grandmother and sensei not to ever, ever use, except in extreme life-threatening circumstances as a normal human body could not handle the backlash. She remembers that she's no longer a regular human after gaining a few levels in this new world and unleashes the technique, trying to save the rest of her class. This unlocks the special skill she was given for transmigrating, but was unaware of.
* DespairEventHorizon: Clearly staring down it in chapter 181. What remains of the Bakugos Dragon Knights was wiped out early in the fight, due to their own LeeroyJenkins divisiveness, her trusted mentors and allies are being overwhelmed, her fellow higher leveled, and officially higher-ranked classmates have completely fallen apart at facing a real challenge, and despite having killed monsters left and right, without pause, none of their efforts are reducing the numbers at all, instead the number of monsters is rapidly increasing, and the escape route has already been cut off...
* GuiltComplex: In her side chapters, her internal narration shows that she blames herself for failing to rescue Touka from Vysis's "brilliant plan" to dump him in Disposal Dungeon, which is why she struggles so hard to keep any other students from dying, even if said students are total assholes who make her job harder, treat her like crap, and maybe even try to straight up kill her to soothe their bruised egos when she outshines them.
* HostageSituation: She is in one, as goddess Vysis has linked the well-being of the "D-rank" classmates to her performance...
* OnlySaneMan: Out of the entire class of 2-C, she's the only one who openly voiced concern and opposition to arbitrary dumping of Mimori. She got attacked and rendered unconscious for her troubles. Of the others who objected, they were either cowed in terror, or left the room in disgust.
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: Her attitude towards protecting her classmates leans dangerously towards this. Even if some of the most powerful ones want her dead.
* SchoolIdol: Voted the most beautiful girl in class 2-C.
* ShamingTheMob: Calls out all of class 2-C for condemning Mimori for something beyond his control, the fact that goddess Vyvis herself "gifted" him with skills and stats that she considers sub-par, so she could dispose of him, as an example of what happens when you fail to please her. Goddess Vysis renders her unconscious as a direct result.
* StupidGood: After being abandoned by Yasu and Oyamada to die, not to mention all the other crap they put her through, both in Japan and in Alion, she still asks Vysis to heal them up. Unless Ayaka is planning on using those two as bait for monsters later, this is monumentally stupid of her, and maybe even then, it still is.

[[caption-width-right:350:GO die already and stop being a hindrance, Touka-[[SarcasmMode "senpai"]]]]
* AbominationAccusationAttack: Accuses Mimori of feeling up Ayaka when he goes to check on her after goddess Vysis renders her unconscious.
* BrokenAce: He's listed as one of the best students in terms of both academics and athletics, but he's a horrid bully who beats up on any classmate he can get away with.
* TheBully: Loves to beat up on people in class 2-C and the homeroom teacher Zakorogi Tamotsu lets him, telling the victims "just don't suicide on my watch."
* DirtyCoward: He's fond of pushing people around, but when he finds himself in trouble, he's quick to have a breakdown, panic, and attempt to flee, caring not a whit about any allies.
* DrunkOnPower: As odious as he was on Earth, his new powers and abilities granted by Vysis have made him considerably ''worse'' in this new world. He near constantly toots his own horn and throws his weight around.
* HeroicBuild: Though he's only a "hero" because Vysis says so, he's described as being well-toned and excellent at athletics.
* JustJokingJustification: When he's instructed by both Mimori and Kirahara to return Ayaka's manga to her on the bus, and Ayaka glares at him because he tormented her, he retorts that it was a harmless "joke" and expects her to accept his insincere apology at face value, resenting the fact that she doesn't just smile and forgive him out of hand.
* PoisonousFriend: One-sided to Kirahara Takuto.
* TooDumbToLive: As a result of DoNotTauntCthulhu. Yells at and spits on a self-proclaimed goddess who not only has the power to summon him across dimensions, but demonstrates that she's very dangerous by ''vaporizing'' a giant wolf-monster to which she just had a chained up man fed, and keeps going when she smacks him down, until Kirahira tells him to stop.
* UncertainDoom: After panicking when he finds himself overwhelmed by a ZergRush of monsters, he flees the battle-field, and his current fate is unknown, with neither hide nor hair of him found... He's found alive, but the psychotic break was so profound that he stopped being "Oyamada" and became someone else entirely.

[[caption-width-right:350:Sorry, Mimori, there's nothing we can do for you.]]
* AdaptationalVillainy: Although their words and actions between the light novel and manga are identical, the context is very different. In the light novel, they left the room in disgust after apologizing to Mimori for not being able to help him when goddess Vysis decided to "dispose of him." Thus their "Let's go Aneki" and "It's worthless" speech was directed at the rest of the class's scummy actions, not at Mimori. In the manga, it looks like they're also condemning him.
* CloudCuckoolander: They're both rather odd.
* TheDividual: They are always seen together.
* EveryoneHasStandards: In the original novel, they were disgusted with the rest of the class, and goddess Vysis, for literally treating Mimori like trash, but were powerless to do anything aside from leaving the room in disgust.
* MysteriousPast: Touka is ''certain'' that no one, not even him, hate Kirihara as much as Itsuki.

[[caption-width-right:350:Witness my "heroic" power you golden-eyed monster scum! DRAGON BUSTER BLAST!]]
The most popular boy in class 2-C.
----
* AppealToForce: Once he realized that he completely lost the rational argument that it's "slander" to accuse him of being a GloryHound that tried to straight up murder Ayaka purely to soothe his bruised ego, he whips out and starts charging his [Dragon Buster Blast] skill, stating that if he seriously wanted to kill Ayaka, he would have attacked with it.
* AppealToPopularity: As part of his "logical" rebuttal to the accusation that he was caught red handed trying to strike down Ayeka with a sword, and why he believes it's ok to sacrifice the weak to protect the strong, he cites a self-proclaimed economist as a reliable authority because the guy has a youtube video with 200,000 likes. To the surprise of no one but himself, this doesn't help his case.
* {{Bishonen}}: He's described as an "ikemen."
* ChickMagnet: He is very popular with the girls of class 2-C, with rare exception.
* CripplingOverspecialization: He's a one-trick pony with his beam of light attack. He relies entirely on lining things up "just right" to make the most of it, and kill-stealing, to advance. Mobbed by a ZergRush in chapter 181, and he shows his true colors, screaming and running for the hills.
* DrunkOnPower: The abilities and special skill Vysis gave him went straight to his head, and the more levels he gets, both in total, and in his WaveMotionGun, the more insufferable he gets. The constant fangirling he gets from the majority of girls in 2-C and the world does not help matters, in the slightest.
* GloryHound: He absolutely ''has'' to be the #1 "hero" of the class. When he learns Ayaka managed to defeat one of the demon king's top generals in single combat and came back with a level 499, he swung a sword at her, trying to kill her!
* GlorySeeker: The primary reason he kill steals is that he's only concerned with the glory of having the highest kill count, even demanding from goddess Vysis to be sent into the heart of an enemy army so he can kill as much as possible. He is completely addicted to the "Oooh" and "ahh" reaction he gets from his many fangirls, and becomes completely apathetic during times that there are no monsters to fight.
* HeroicWannabe: Flaunts his WaveMotionGun attack and kill stealing as "heroic" feats and boasts of his greatness, ignoring the consequences.
* IgnorantOfHisOwnIgnorance: His first kill resulted in raising his level to 10, and Visys's entire retinue threw a party, swelling his already bloated ego to unbelievable proportions. The results of Mimori's first kill? ''Level 282!''
* IRejectYourReality: He is a true "king" and the inevitable best "hero" in class 2-C, no exceptions or objections tolerated. He will quickly resort to lethal force to support this claim.
* JustJokingJustification: After swinging a sword at Ayaka's head, after hearing how Ayaka managed to surpass him, he rebukes Hijiri's assertion that he just attempted to murder Ayaka to soothe his ego by stating that he wasn't serious and it was just a surprise test. The only person he fooled with this assertion is himself.
* KillSteal: As if Ayaka's role as ClassRepresentative wasn't already harsh enough, he keeps her from advancing in level and earning her special ability, by swooping in and killing the monster she's fighting, just before she gets to land the final blow, thus stealing the exp gain she needs. The only reason Ayaka works with him is that goddess Vysis forces her to.
* LightIsNotGood: His special ability is a powerful beam of light, and he's an extremely obnoxious clod who actively sabotages Ayaka with kill-stealing, making her job much harder than it has to be.
* MoralityChain: Though the bar is set pretty low, he's the only one who can keep Oyamada from "going too far" and is the only one Oyamada ever listens to.
* NeverMyFault: After he came after Ayaka with a sword while she was still reeling from the rebound of her skill, his attack blocked by Hijiri, he tries to claim that had Ayaka died to an attack of that degree, it was her own fault for being "weak."
* OriginalPositionFallacy: Discussed. Hijiri believes this clown is very, very eager to advocate sacrificing "weak" students to prioritize giving resources to "the strong" because he believes he will always be the "strong" and never has to worry about being the one considered "weak" and having to face being sacrificed.

* AllMenArePerverts: What does he do when Vysis kidnaps the class and summons them to the new world? He stares at Vysis' breasts during the entire encounter!
* ApatheticTeacher: How apathetic? Oyamada kicks the chair of Yasu Tomohiro and starts brutalizing him? "Hey, Yasu! If you're going to be DrivenToSuicide, I'd appreciate it if [[ItsAllAboutMe you didn't trouble me]], and you would go die when I'm not in charge!"
* HaremSeeker: Implied. Mimori points out that he's guilty of extreme favoritism towards the physically attractive students of his class, regardless of gender, surrounding himself with the most beautiful students, and ignoring the rest, at best.
* NeverMyFault: What does he say when Ayaka calls him out on ''cheering'' when goddess Vysis proclaims her intent to dispose of Mimori, rather than stepping forward to protect the students, as is ''his job'' as a school teacher? "There's nothing I can do."

----
* AccidentalHero: He does manage to save Ayaka's life, but that was not his intent. He was trying to kill-steal and openly turns around to mock her because he did so. Then the monster he thought he killed got back up and sliced off some of his fingers. Cue a panic attack disguised as a "tactical retreat."
* BadBoss: The most benevolent thing he's done to the classmates Vysis assigned to him is forcing them to keep up with him when they're on foot while he's on horseback, and yelling at them when they fail to do so.
* DarkIsEvil: Is granted "darkness" powers by goddess Vysis, and is an arrogant, ungrateful prick who ''gloats'' when Mimori, the one guy who would help him, is in clear distress.
* DrunkOnPower: The moment he realizes he's an A-rank, like Oyamada, he begins to flaunt it over everyone, even challenging Oyamada directly. The only reason the two don't come to blows is that Vyvis ''threatens both of them'' with "disposal."
* DontYouDarePityMe: Charitably. In a flashback, Mimori chances upon him after Oyamada has so brutalized him that he needs immediate medical assistance. He responds to Mimori taking him to the infirmary and asking for help from the teachers with unbridled rage, angrily declaring that Mimori has no right to "look down on him."
* ExtremeDoormat: Constantly the target of Oyamada's rage and bullying, and none of the teachers care.
* IRejectYourReality: He is so entitled and delusional that after he fled the battle, severed fingers in hand, he uses "waga" (a term reserved for royalty) regarding himself, and still calls himself a fearless hero. He even roasted and ate his horse and started screeching at the soldiers who found him about how Vysis would praise his "accomplishment" of coming back alive.
* ItsAllAboutMe: He honestly believes that his "heroic" duty and fame mandates that anyone and everyone is supposed to be ''honored'' to have the chance to serve and protect him. When he comes under attack from a monster he foolishly thought he already finished off, he rides away on his steed, screaming at the classmates he was leading that they should be honored to cover his escape.
* MilesGloriosus: Because Vysis called him an "A rank," he's fond of boasting and preening like he's a peerless martial and magical talent. The moment he faces even the tiniest injury, like having his fingers sliced by RazorFloss, he panics, screams for healing, and runs for the hills.
* SmugSnake: He's always had a superiority complex; he's just been cowed by Oyamada's violence. The moment goddess Vysis labels him an A-rank, he lords it over everyone.
* UncertainDoom: He is last seen fleeing from a wave of monsters in a panic and on horseback. His current fate is unknown and nobody has seen him since the battle... He is eventually found several days after the battle, having apparently eaten his horse, completely delusional.
* UngratefulBastard: How does he respond to Mimori helping him when he's badly injured by Oyamada's bullying? Rage! When Mimori's the one in need of help, '''he gloats!'''

[[caption-width-right:235:Vysis is planning on disposing of us D-rankers too, isn't she?]]
A D-rank classmate.
----
* CowardlyLion: She may be a self-professed coward, but among the D-rankers, she's the only one who does anything aside from simply cowering behind a shield, even delivering the finishing blow, when prompted, to a monster weakened by Ayaka, so she can advance.
* DCupDistress: She hates her large, and still growing, breasts. Ever since they started coming in during early junior high, she's received nothing but leers from most of the boys, and derision from most of the girls. Having a ShrinkingViolet personality, they've brought her nothing but grief.
* GirlishPigtails: Wears her hair like this and has the innocence, if not the childish joy, of the trope.
* HeroWorshipper: She admires and near idolizes Ayaka.
* KindHeartedCatLover: Out of all the classmates, save Mimori, she's the only one who thought to tend to a stray cat she found on campus with a broken leg. The rest ''pointed and laughed'' at the poor animal, [[SocialMediaBeforeReason uploading videos to the internet to mock at their leisure.]]
* LovableCoward: She's a coward, she knows it, she admits it, and she hates that about herself.
* ProperlyParanoid: She's terrified that Vysis is itching to dispose of D-ranked students too, as Mimori warned the class. Just so happens, she's correct, but is unaware of it because of Ayaka's efforts, at least until chapter 84, when it's revealed that Vysis told all the D-rankers that she hasn't disposed of them only as a favor to Ayaka.
* SamaritanRelationshipStarter: She began to have nice thoughts about Mimori because he's the only one in class 2-C who would help her deal with a wounded cat she found. After taking the poor animal to the vet, it got the care it needs, and she adopted the little fur-ball, after it made a full recovery, happy and healthy in her home.
* ShrinkingViolet: She is especially shy and timid. Being dragged into this alien war is not good for her well-being, at all. Seeing Mimori disposed of, and being helpless to do anything about it, has not helped.

Vysis' enforcer and top acolyte.
----
* TheBet: When Oyamada started to sexually harass her, she bet that if the class could beat her in a spar, she'd be his slave for a week. It was a CurbstompBattle in her favor. Oyamada got the message and left her alone from that point on.
* CatGirl: Has a cat's tail, claws, and ears.
* HostageSituation: From her POV chapter, it's shown that Vysis is "protecting" her younger sisters, in exchange for her loyalty. Said loyalty involves literally licking Vysis' feet.
* MentorArchetype: One of her duties is training class 2-C for dealing with the monster and demon king threat.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: Her POV chapters show that she's actually highly intelligent and competent, but she ''hates'' working for Vysis. Since Vysis cares not a whit about intelligence, just strength, utility, and obedience, Nyantan acts like a goofy ditz around Vysis as much as she can get away with. She frequently "forgets" important orders or messages, and often acts with malicious compliance, doing ''exactly'' what she's told, but not in the manner she's told to do it, hoping that the opposite of the intended order comes to pass.

[[/folder]]

[[folder: Heroic Sword]]
A party of human supremacists that Touka and Seras encounter just outside the sacred ruins where a weapon to defeat the demon king might be found.
----
!!Common to all:
* AssholeVictim: They are so repulsive, self-righteous, and fond of PlayingTheVictimCard that seeing Touka catch up to them and giving them graphic deaths is immensely satisfying.
* BadIsGoodAndGoodIsBad: They willingly became psychotic because they see all demi-humans, elves, etc. as "fake humans" that are an unimaginable threat that they can't put into words, even looking at the destruction of Eve's tribe as a ''glorious past'' to be proud of and see any human who thinks differently as a total madman.
* BondVillainStupidity: When Toad and Bardwitcher fail to return after being sent out to find Nyaki, they split what remains of their party in half and send three or four of their members into the forest while keeping the rest at the ruined location that serves as their temporary camp. While this does have some merit, the reason they're concerned about their two scouts' failure to return is that there are dangerous monsters in the area, and splitting their party in half only serves to increase the danger.
* CondescendingCompassion: They view themselves as "naive" and regret showing Nyaki the "mercy" of not gouging out her eyes to keep her from running away from their life-threatening abuse.
* DidNotThinkThisThrough: They beat up on Nyaki so hard, they could have killed her, even though that would piss off Vysis.
* EnfanteTerrible: When they were all small children, they completely genocided Eve's clan, for no discernable reason, and in the present day, boast about it to showcase how strong they are.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: They are truly devoted to one another, on the surface, and if one of them is struck down, the rest will hold a funeral, with a great deal of mourning. Later subverted when it's revealed that they will sell each other out in a heart-beat if it means prolonging their own lives.
* FantasticRacism: If you're not human, they will treat you as a beast of burden, at best, as Nyaki can testify.
* FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence: They view everyone that is not 100% human as a "fake human" that is a terrible threat to humanity, for simply existing, and saw the Speed Tribe as "sick in the head" because they wanted to live in peace and be left alone.
* ForTheEvulz: Thanks to their leader Ruin Blade, they went and attacked the Speed tribe, not for racism or hatred, but ''for fun'' and they think that it's something to be proud of.
* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: True, Vysis may have raised them to be racists who fear and hate all demi-humans, but they've seen demi-humans at work under Vysis, and the self-proclaimed goddess never taught them to go out and kill for fun. That's something they came up with themselves.
* HateSink: There is no redeeming feature to these scoundrels. Even their so-called camraderie is simply banding together purely for the purpose of finding new and sadistic ways to kill people they don't agree with and rationalize it in their own head that it's okay because their targets were either "fake humans" or "evil heretics" who refuse to "open their eyes at how threatening the fake humans are." The only benefit they bring to the story is seeing how Touka is going to sadistically kill them.
* AHeroToHisHometown: The reason they're called [Heroic Sword] is that Alion ''does'' consider them "heroes" by order of Vysis.
* DirtyCoward: While they love to boast about how "heroic" they see themselves, when push comes to shove, they will happily throw each other under the bus if they think it will spare their lives.
* MoralMyopia: There is absolutely no way to come to any kind of understanding with these yahoos. If they attack you, and you fight back, even by standards they consider "justice," then you are an irredeemably evil genocidal threat and must be exterminated. If you try to run, then you are nothing more than a disgusting coward who has to be hunted down and killed in the most ForTheEvulz way possible. If you try to talk things out peacefully, then you are incurably insane and have to be wiped out to keep the "evil ideals" from spreading, or who knows what catastrophe will happen.
* NeverMyFault: They push the responsibility for all their failures and shortcomings onto Nyaki, even blaming her for the death of their partymember who was set upon by contingent of knights, after they sent him to scout, and Nyaki couldn't possibly have had anything to do with it.
* PlayingTheVictimCard: When they find themselves on the ''losing'' end of the fight, they cry, whine, and whimper that they're the helpless, innocent victims.
* RealityIsUnrealistic: These clowns may look like one-dimensional, two-bit villains, and maybe they are, but fanatical racists do in fact think and act like this, regardless of which stripe they wear, from a dirty-white bedsheets to a bent crosses. Fanatic racists view the targets of their paranoia as the spawn of pure evil. They see peaceful coexistence as a terrifying prospect, hatred and sociopathic sadism as a virtue, and anyone of their own race who doesn't agree is either a traitor or a madman. And yes, they view sadistic acts of genoicide fondly, as something to be proud of for participating.
* SecretTestOfCharacter: Which they all failed, miserably. Touka cornered, paralyzed, and poisoned them, promising to spare the first to give him the intel he wants. In seconds, they began fighting among themselves and interrupting each other, trying to see who could reveal the most secrets. Then when he asked them about the Speed tribe, suddenly they were all buddy-buddy again and boasted, in graphic detail [[GoryDiscretionShot which goes unrevealed to the reader]] how they tortured the tribe to death for fun, expecting Touka to sympathize. They ''refused'' to stop bragging until Touka yelled a BigShutUp and then started killing them.
* StupidEvil: Treating Nyaki, a small child, like a pack mule, getting violent with her when she trips because the luggage is too heavy for her, and using a blow that could have killed her when that would result in pissing off an evil goddess that has no issue giving gruesome deaths to anyone who slights her? OY! Then there's the fact that they bragged they were going to kill her the moment she got them into the Forbidden Country, when they though she would be of no further use... ''''while she's still Vysis's property!
* SuicidalOverconfidence: They prance around as if they're invincible. Sure, they're tough, but they're not invincible, as they're introduced with one of their own getting struck down by a squad of knights from the country Miam.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: In yet another manner that Vysis's own teachings turn around to bite her, these louts could not wrap their heads around the fact that Nyaki is already a "useful tool" as Vysis's property and even though Ruin himself states that they need her alive and well to find and Faraway Country, so they can engage in their favorite pass-time, genocide, on the very mission Vysis herself put them on, they clenched their teeth, tried and failed to rein in their hatred, so would "educate" Nyaki with violence every chance they got, then had the gall to look at it as a "betrayal" when she fled, for fear of her life.
* WantsAPrizeForBasicDecency: They honestly believe that Nyaki should look on them with admiration for the fact that they didn't gouge her eyes out, bust her eardrums, and chop off her cat-ears the moment Vysis handed her to them because she's necessary for them to enter Faraway Country, and look at the fact that she fled after they kicked her so hard she went flying ''and nearly died'' as a "betrayal" from an ungrateful "fake human" who didn't appreciate Ruin's "education to be a useful tool." Said "education" of course involved frequent beatings without explanation.
* WhyDidYouMakeMeHitYou: Whenever they abused Nyaki, they would shed CrocodileTears and act as if their violence is her fault, always making up an excuse.
* WouldHurtAChild: They frequently beat up Nyaki, even kicking her so hard, she flew a great distance and coughed up blood when she smacked into a tree.

!! Toad:
* AccidentalMurder: After he cuts down Bardwitcher, he cries out that it was an accident and he "reflexively" cut the guy's throat.
* FightingYourFriend: After Touka has crippled him so he can't run away, Bardwitcher is afflicted with [Berserk] and then attacks him.
* IKnowYouAreInThereSomewhereFight: Deconstructed. While defending himself from a [Berserk] afflicted Bardwitcher, he keeps shouting the latter's name and pleading for him to shake off "the evil sorcery." This does not help in any way.
* OffWithHisHead: When Touka's tired of trying to make him understand how it feels to be a victim, and how it's in no way something to be proud of in being the victimizer, with Toad absolutely refusing to wrap his head around it, Touka just walks up to him and removes his empty head with a sword.
* RevengeMyopia: Touka subjects him and Bardwitcher to [Paralyze], cripples him and then sets a [Berserk] Bardwitcher loose on him in revenge for the sadistic elimination of the Speed tribe, and Toad screams that he's going to pummel Touka to death in retaliation, honestly believing that [Heroic Sword] has done nothing wrong.
* SadisticChoice: Subjected to one. He either kills a [Berserk] Bardwitcher, or lets Bardwitcher kill him.
* TheyJustDontGetIt: As he's being forced to fight Bardwitcher, Touka keeps pointing out to him how this is retaliation for the extermination of the Speed Tribe, and even after Bardwitcher is dead, and Touka asks him "do you understand now, even a little bit, how it feels to have been killed for fun?" the only retort he has is "don't lump 'fake humans' and real humans together, you evil heretic!"

!! Bardwitcher:
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Under the effect of [Berserk], his eyes turn milky-white and he attacks Toad with lethal force, forcing the latter to fight back until one or both of them are dead.

!! Ruin Blade:
The leader of the group.
----
* BadPeopleAbuseAnimals: He learned how to be a sadistic sociopath by beating up on harmless animals and friendly "monsters." His favorite game was going around popping slimes like soap-bubbles, so he happily focuses on Piggimaru when he sees the slime in the forest... Too late he realizes that that was not what his [Instinct] was warning him about.
* TheCorrupter: The rest of his party were just a bunch of random racists, but he made them sadistically homicidal by teaching them that hatred alone is not enough motivation for genocide, the victims have to be killed ''for fun.''
* FatalFlaw: His [Instinct] is uncanny in identifying what kind of threat he's facing, wihtout even being able to see what's coming after him, but in order to protect himself effectively, he has to be familiar with the source of the threat. When he's up against a complete unknown, reading something like "if it sees my whole body, I'm dead" doesn't do much except make the paranoia worse.
* GutFeeling: Bordering on SpiderSense. He has a near prophetic intuition that has led him and his party through numerous life-threatening crises. This completely fails him when Touka catches up to them and puts them on the receiving end of "fun killings."
* MeaningfulName: His name is Ruin Blade and his blade is directly responsible for the ruin of the Speed tribe.
* MilesGloriosus: He brags that he can beat Civit in a straight up fight, or at least make it close, but the two have never met, and Civit doesn't even think the guy is worthy of notice.
* MoralSociopathy: He truly believes he's a good and kind man who wants to make the world a better place and is tolerant of the "fake humans" by "educating them on how to be useful tools" but he's a sadistic racist who sees fanatical hatred as ''insufficient motivation'' for genocide and that the only way to get through it is to make the killing as fun as possible. Teaching that to everyone who will listen. Later subverted when Touka's got him pinned and he's begging for mercy, revealing that he knew his behavior was terrible all along, but was just pretending to believe he was being benevolent so he could rope in accomplices in his villainy.
* NothingIsScarier: Which he learns first hand the moment he hears the insects nearby stop buzzing. Where are the rest of his party members? What happened to them? Why is Satsuki shambling towards us with a blood-soaked katana and attacking us? Who or what is responsible? And why is there a disembodied voice asking us if we're having fun yet?
* VillainsWantMercy: When he's the last surviving member, he promises all sorts of boons to Touka, even demanding he be given the chance to repent for his nastiness. Touka doesn't comply and just slits his throat.
* WrongAssumption: Invoked. Piggimaru acts as a decoy to draw his party's attention, so he thinks his [Instinct] is warning him that the "mutant" slime is the threat that's been nagging at him, but while he's focusing so he can hurl Satsuki's katana at the friendly slime, Touka suddenly appears behind him and uses [Paralyze]. At this point, Ruin's party is doomed.

!! Satsuki:
The second in command
----
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: A [Berserk] Satsuki comes out of the forest, blood covered katana in hand, and attacks the remaining members of the party.
* DeathByIrony: The second after Ruin gives him a mortal wound, the [Berserk] state ends and he returns to normal, just in time to fall over dead at Ruin's feet.
* NumberTwo: Second in command of the party.
* TheRival: He and Ruin had a friendly rivaly going to make each other stronger.

!! Yuugungu:
* EarAche: He gets one of his ears sliced off by a [Berserk] Satsuki.
* EnemyMine: He and Myana hate each other, and frequently come close to trading blows. The only thing holding them together is their common racism towards "fake humans." They get in a screaming match after Satsuku's death until Ruin points out they're still in danger, at which point they fist-bump and pawn off their grudge onto Nyaki, who isn't even present.
* LaserGuidedKarma: He was the most vocal about wanting to chop off Nyaki's ears to "instrutruct" her as to why "fake humans" are hated. His ear winds up getting chopped off.
* WhatTheHellHero: He immediately turns on Ruin when he sees Satsuki come to his senses after being mortally wounded by Ruin and dying seconds afterward.

!! Myana:
* BarrierWarrior: Her strongest spell is [Fortress] which produces a powerful sand-storm screen that deflects all physical attacks and blocks line of sight. Unfortunately for the group, it is not a perfect dome, so attacks can get through the cracks.

!! Arene:
* BerserkButton: Her cooking implements. Despite the fact that Nyaki only tripped and fell because she was overburdened with luggage, Arene beat up the poor girl to "educate" her on why the luggage is so valuable.
* VillainousBSOD: While Yuugungu and Myana were fighting over Satsuki's dead body, after Ruin himself killed the guy, she was curled up in a fetal position. She recovers and starts blaming Nyaki for their troubles when Ruin demands the magical light balls in the luggage be taken out and scattered in the nearby perimeter.

!! Cora:
* KilledOffscreen: She's the one party member, aside from the scout killed by Mira's knights, that Touka didn't eliminate. She ran into Seras instead, and Seras cut her down with ease.

! The country of Nea:

[[folder: King Ortra Straminus]]
Seras' father.
----
* AltarDiplomacy: After his nation is invaded by Bakugos, he offers his other daughter, crown princess Cattleya, to Civit Garland in a BureaucraticallyArrangedMarriage, to spare the lives of his people. Civit is forced by his government to accept the deal, although the guy isn't interested, only seeing fights to the death as BetterThanSex.
* GoodParents: Refused to force his daughter Seras into a BureaucraticallyArrangedMarriage with Civit, after learning that Civit planned to rape and murder her... At first, after she fled the kingdom, his interests turned in an "unfortunate direction."
* PastExperienceNightmare: Months after Seras fled the kingdom and Bakugos assimilated his lands, ignoring an attack of gold-eyed monsters, he still has nightmares.
* ParentalIncest: He lusts after Seras, and is terrified that another man wins her heart, as such, ''he puts out a contract on her life'' rather than take the risk.
* SelfFulfillingProphecy: Puts out a contract on Seras, which includes her corpse being brought before him "looking pure," so he doesn't have to worry about some other guy defiling her or winning her heart. It is precisely because he puts out this contract on her that she's become a LustObject with the very same people who are out to kill her trying to rape her, and the fact that she's rescued by Mimori, repeatedly, that Mimori's won her heart.
* {{Yandere}}: After putting out the contract on Seras, he kills himself, so they "will be together forever." Cattleya is ''not'' amused.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Crown Princess Cattleya]]
The first daughter of King Ortra.
----
* AwfulWeddedLife: Was not happy being married to Civit and is secretly grateful 'someone' killed him.
* TheCakeIsALie: She's well aware that Vysis can not be trusted, but must take any chance to win her people's freedom.
* TheChainsOfCommanding: When Vysis promised her country back, in the event she gains better battlefield accomplishments than Bakugos, her conquerors, due to the fact that Bakugos lost their strongest fighter, Civit, she agrees because any hope of her people's freedom and well being is worth the price.
* FallenPrincess: With the conquest of her home country and BureaucraticallyArrangedMarriage to Civit, she lost her crown and people.
* AFriendInNeed: She helped Seras escape her country's army that seeking to kill her on the orders of her own {{Yandere}} father.
* TheWomanWearingTheQueenlyMask: She's likely a good person, helping Seras escape, despite knowing she would be punished for it, but faces her opposition and detractors with an unflappable queenly dignity and grace.

[[caption-width-right:350:Who is this brat? Who cares! Kill him!]]
The mercenary group hunting Seras all the way from Neia.
----
* AdaptationExpansion: In the original source, they're only shown going after Mimori and getting killed for their idiocy. In the manga, they get more screen-time and they are shown being able to corner Seras, showing that they are genuinely a serious threat, just not random red-shirts that messed with the wrong guy.
* FamedInStory: In the manga, they are a well-known mercenary group.
* FamousAncestor: They have summoned heroes as ancestors, which gives them abilities far above the norm.
* IronicEcho: When they think they've cornered Mamori, they taunt him "you must have the shittiest luck" before spewing sadistic threats and flaunting their newest weapons. The moment Mamori turns the tables, nailing them down with paralysis and poison, he retorts "you must have the shittiest luck" and then calmly watching them die, ''slowly.''
* JustToyingWithThem: They intentionally miss when firing on Seras, just to torment her.
* KarmicDeath: They loved to make a sport out of hunting people down and giving them long, slow deaths. They attack Mamori, planning to do the same to him, only to be struck by his [Multi-target] paralyze and poison abnormal states, leading to their slow and very painful deaths.
* KillingIntent: When Seras was cornered and tried to fight back, they crippled her with this.
* MuggingTheMonster: When they came across Mimori, they attacked him without knowing anything about him. They only lived just long enough to regret it.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: They only get a line in passing in the original source. In the manga, they get names, screen time, and some of their abilities are shown.
* OneDegreeOfSeparation: They have older brothers working with Asynth...
* RedBaron: As can be seen in the page image, they all have famous aliases.
* {{Sadist}}: They are well-known to hunt purely to enjoy the pain of their intended targets.

[[caption-width-right:350:I found you, Seras Ashrain, and you will beg me to rape you before you die!!]]
A rather rude mercenary and bounty hunter who approaches a disguised Seras in the local inn, yanks her hood off her head, and then has the gall to want revenge on her for the "humiliation" of his own bad behavior.
----
* CasanovaWannabe: His primary motivation is chasing women around, to an especially creepy degree. In the manga, when he sees "Mist" from behind, with her cloak up, he shouts "It smells like a beauty!"
* EvilIsPetty: In the manga, his grudge with Seras, by his own admission, is that he asked her out on a date, and she turned him down. For her part, Seras says she has no memory of meeting him before, which is what really sets him off.
* KarmicDeath: Wanted to use Mimori and Seras as monster bait in Mills Ruins. Mimori got to him first and left his corpse behind as monster bait.
* LargeAndInCharge: He towers over everyone and is in charge of his band of mercs.
* MuggingTheMonster: Attacks Mimori for protecting "Mist Barucus." He gets paralyzed, poisoned, and then EatenAlive by dungeon monsters, who then wind up poisoned and paralyzed as a result, making them easy prey for Mimori.
* RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil: Mamori decides to kill him and his merry band when he brags of wanting to rape "Mist Barucus" repeatedly if they manage to catch her alive.
* RedBaron: "The Flash"
* RevengeMyopia: Wants to humiliate "Mist Barucus" for insulting him, when he's the dirty clod who walked up to her, ripped her hood off her head, and tried to manhandle her without permission.
** Again when he sees Mimori chance upon him as he and his merry band were plotting to rape and murder Seras in Mills Ruins dungeon, then disposing of her body as monster bait. When he threatens Mimori, he has the gall do demand vengeance as Mimori fights back.
* SmallNameBigEgo: He's not that famous, and his mercenary band is a group of unknowns, yet acts as if Seras, who answers only to the king of Neia, or Cattleya, the crown princess, is his equal, at best, and gets insulted if she dares to resist his so-called charm.
* WeWillMeetAgain: Promises to meet Mimori again to exact vengeance. Mimori goes "don't think so" and kills him.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Knight Gizan]]
Second in command of the Black Dragon Knights.
----
* AssholeVictim: Considering he sees nothing wrong with raping and murdering women ForTheEvulz, his death won't be mourned.
* AHeroToHisHomeTown: He may be a raping, murdering scum, but he is among the top soldiers of the Bakugos Empire against the demon and monster threat.
* NothingPersonal: States he has no grudge, but fully intends to kill Seras the moment he corners her in a forest just outside of Mills.
* RapeAsDrama: Forces Seras into a ScarpiaUltimatum, using the threat of his dragon mount to force her to have sex with him, unless she wants the dragon to eat her alive.
** While being questioned by Mimori, he ''brags'' that he intended to make Seras the SexSlave for the entire Black Dragon Knights order, for a very, very long time.

[[folder: Knight Civit Garland]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/civit.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:This is boring, find me a proper "enemy" already!]]
The leader of the Black Dragon Knight Order.
----
* AssholeVictim: No tears were shed at his CruelAndUnusualDeath
* BadGuysDoTheDirtyWork: Kills his second in command to prevent the latter from answering Mimori's questions.
* BetterThanSex: He's not interested in his wife, Cattleya, at all. He only agreed to marry her because his government ordered him to. He only gets orgasmic pleasure from battles to the death with a WorthyOpponent.
* BloodKnight: Lives for fights to the death with foes strong enough to beat him, and is always looking for an "enemy" to fight.
* BrokenAce: His title "the strongest of humanity" is not just for show. Even under the effects of "paralyze" and "poison," he still came very, very close to killing Mimori. That's how "high stat" he is. Unfortunately, he doesn't dedicate his strength to protecting the innocent; he's just interested in finding "enemies" to clash against in battles to the death and will do any despicable thing he has to in order to find them.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: Mimori uses his troops as guinea pigs to test out his new Berserk and Dark skills while they're paralyzed. He forces himself to move while paralyzed to try and stop it. The result was an extremely painful and unpleasant death, and oh did they all have it coming.
* EvilIsPetty: The reason he hunted Seras down like an animal, and wanted his knights to use her as a SexSlave until she's utterly broken before killing her? She defeated him in a friendly spar he himself demanded.
* INeedYouStronger: To Mimori, to the point he agreed to "ignore" Seras for a while...
* KickTheSonOfABitch: On the receiving end. Mimori negotiates and agrees to an "honorable duel" at a later date with him, and as he approaches for the ritual handshake, paralyzes him, and subjects him to hell.
* LightIsNotGood: Dresses entirely in white and rides a white dragon, and he's total scum.
* RedBaron: "The strongest of humanity."
* SoreLoser: If you beat him in a fight, you had better kill him because otherwise, he will hunt you down like an animal until he wears you down, and catches you, then drives you to despair so that you ''beg for death'' before finally killing you.
* TearsOfBlood: He forces himself to move while he's under the effect of "paralyze." This causes so much internal damage that he bleeds from every orafice, including his eyes, until his body gives out and he's kneeling in a pool of his own blood.
* WhoAreYou: As his FamousLastWords, he asks "Bastard, who are you?" to Mimori, after the latter has soloed his entire unit. Mimori answers with BreakHimByTalking, at which point, Civit falls over, dead.
[[/folder]]

! The country of Uraz:

[[folder: Ruins Investigation Knights Unit]]
The knights unit sent to investigate the Disposal Ruins to make certain noone and nothing comes out.
----
* BitCharacter: They only show up to prove that goddess Vysis has made arrangements to keep eyes on the Disposal Dungeon, and serve no other role. Once that's been established, they're never seen again.
* ItsProbablyNothing: Played with. On the one hand, they stumble upon the corpses of the Holy Guard, the top fighters of the Nea kingdom that were pursuing Seras, and see that they've been robbed blind, yet shrug it off as if they were just some low-ranked adventurers that got mobbed by monsters and then robbed by an opportunist bandit or two. On the other hand, when they arrive at the Disposal Dungeon, and their magic tool doesn't respond like it should, they take it seriously and quickly return to base to get a second tool, to make certain their tool's not broken, and to verify if someone or something did manage to breach the seal placed by goddess Vysis, but even so, still treat it dismissively.
* WeHaveBecomeComplacent: They've put so much faith in goddess Vysis and her barrier over the Disposal Ruin, that they see their task of going and checking the integrity of the seal as "easy money." So when their magic tool indicates that the seal may have been breached, they don't even bother to send a report warning the goddess about it, like she demands, but instead take their sweet time getting a replacement tool to make certain the first tool wasn't broken.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: The group Asinth]]
A criminal group that claims their "curses" brought down the Black Dragon Knights.
----
* ConMan: They poison people with difficult to identify potions and herbs, and then claim they "cursed" their victim with magic.
* EvilGloating: When they think they've got Eve and Mimori cornered in a forest, they boast about how they're not using curse magic, at all, but poisons and blackmail to try and revive the Assassin's Guild. This teaches Mimori exactly the strategy he needs to frame them for killing Duke Zuan.
* FollowInMyFootsteps: They boast of picking up business where the Assassin's Guild left off, since a previous group of "heroes" not only destroyed said guild, but made all poisons illegal and "evil."
* FramingTheGuiltyParty: Mimori makes it look like they turned upon the corrupt noble that hired them by destroying their corpses, but leaving behind their insignia around the corpse of said noble.
* NoBodyLeftBehind: When they catch up to Mimori's party, hunting Eve Speed, Mimori not only kills them, but uses "freeze" upon their corpses to smash them to powder, leaving no trace.
* ScarpiaUltimatum: Mimori stumbles upon them grabbing a woman off the street and threatening to "curse" her if she doesn't let them use her as a sex toy. Much as Mimori wanted to straight up kill them, he still needed them around as cover so he used "berserk" on them to make them fight each other, raise a ruckus, and let the town guards deal with them.
* StealingTheCredit: To bolster their infamy, they took credit for killing the Black Dragon Knights. This serves Mimori just fine, as it takes the heat off his back and lets him work in secret to take down "that fucking goddess."
* WouldHurtAChild: They threatened Lizbet. This did not go well for them.
* WrongAssumption: They presumed they had Eve and Mimori cornered with a pincer attack. They were unaware that Seras was also a member of the group and is a OneWomanArmy herself, taking out all their backup.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: Duke Zuan]]
Ruler of the country of Uraz.
----
* BadBoss: When he sees his knights dropping like flies, and they try to retreat, he strikes them down himself, forcing them to head to their certain death fighting Eve and Mimori. This culminates in being left all alone, paralyzed, with no way to retreat or surrender when Eve comes along and delivers the killing blow.
* ForcedPrizeFight: Runs one in the capital city.
* IHaveYouNowMyPretty: When he and his knights catch up to Eve and Mimori, as Mimori planned for them to, he boasts about how Lizbet should be [[RapeAsDrama "honored that he's chosen her to sire his next child,"]] [[NemeanSkinning and forced to wear Eve's hide.]] This does not go well for him, at all.
* ILied: He never had any intention of honoring his promise to free Lizbet and Eve, and his thugs bragged about it just before Eve was scheduled to fight her last bout.
* InelegantBlubbering: When all his men are dead, and he finds himself helpless at Eve's feet, certain gruesome punishment headed his way, his face is covered with TearsOfFear and snot, and he's so terrified when the reality that he's not near the unstoppable juggernaut he believed himself to be finally dawns on him, he can only bawl and grunt in incomprehensible ways.
* IRejectYourReality: He's a completely delusional twit who honestly believes the world ran according to his will and would lash out with violence, killing any who dared disagree. This not only helps Mimori's plan to LeaveNoWitnesses immensely, but leaves him at the non-existent mercy of Eve Speed, who wants him dead for reaching out his hand towards Lizbet, promising to make the poor child a SexSlave, and then sell her off to a brothel when he gets bored.
* MilesGloriosus: Since he runs an arena, he thinks he's the mightiest warrior, ever. In an actual fight, he can only hide behind his trained knights and uses them as cannon fodder.
* NothingIsScarier: Whatever Eve did to him, he met his end screaming in pain and terror.
* ReleasedToElsewhere: There have been gladiatorial slaves that won their freedom, despite it being well known that he sabotages their last bouts, so whoever beats them will become the new fan favorite and keep the money from the betting pool flowing. These poor sods had a tendency to wind up dead in the river, if they were ever found at all.
[[/folder]]

[[folder: The Mistress of Hakuashitei Tavern]]
The one tasked with "watching over" Lizbet by Duke Zuan while Eve was in the blood-fights.
----
* BadBoss: She would constantly blame Lizbet for the behavior of bad customers, and turn a blind eye when they sexually harassed and assaulted her, taking all their complaints, no matter how illegitimate, out on the little girl's hide, and when she didn't abuse the girl, she would let the customers do it, even beating her head against the floor repeatedly, until she wept tears of blood, while they laughed. Eve saw it, and an epic beatdown ensued.
* CruelMercy: On the receiving end. When Mimori sees the kind of life Lizbet was subjected to, he first lets Eve do a bit of PercussiveTherapy on the customers abusing Lizbet, and the mistress herself. When there's nobody else around, Mamori returns and ambushes her from behind, paralyzes her, and then ignores her pleas to be spared, and her empty promises of protection from Duke Zuan to paralyze her, non-fatally poison her, use "darkness" to blind her and then slit her throat so she slowly bleeds out, not being able to tell which way she's facing as she lies on the ground and the paralysis wears off. Brr...
* SmallNameBigEgo: Runs a tavern, and thinks she's more important and influential than Duke Zuan, ''the king of the country of Uraz!''
* VillainsWantMercy: She begged and pleaded for forgiveness and her life when Eve tore into her, and then when Mimori did the same.
* WouldHurtAChild: Either beat up on Lizbet, or let her customers do it, to keep the customers happy, damn the staff's well being, even though Lizbet was ''Duke Zuan's property.''

[[folder: Vysis]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/vysis.jpg]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Oh, stop being "selfish" and let yourself be disposed of already, E-ranker!]]
The one who summons Class 2-C to this new world.
----
* AdaptationalDumbass: In the original novel, Mimori informs her of his abilities, and she dismisses them as worthless because she's familiar with those abilities, and they ''usually'' only rarely work, and only last for a few seconds when they do. In the manga, she doesn't even bother to learn what his abilities are before disposing of him, simply because he came back with an "E-Rank" growth rate on his stats.
* BeautyIsBad: Physically, she's stunningly gorgeous, but she's morally bankrupt.
* TheCakeIsALie: Promises to send class 2-C home if they can present proof of defeating the Demon King. After Mimori is disposed of, and several casualties occur during the first few ''days'' of training, Ayaka and the Takaro sisters begin to wonder if Vysis is really going to follow through...
* CondescendingCompassion: How she speaks to ''everyone.''
* TheCorrupter: Her "Blessing" will make the recipient a worse person, without fail. It's a slow, subtle process.
* CrimeOfSelfDefense: Dare to defend yourself from her attacks or her decision to "dispose of you" and you're the one who's evil or "corrupted" and in need of punishment.
* CrocodileTears: Makes herself cry in "regret" when she renders Ayaka unconscious in the manga, due to the latter daring to stand up on Mimori's behalf.
* CruelMercy: Throws Mimori's unique transmigration item at him, that she had seized while he was unconscious from the summoning sickness, as he's being transported to the Disposal Dungeon, ostensibly to extend his suffering, and calls it "a mercy." Mimori doesn't think there was any benevolence in getting his rightful property returned before being sent to an execution ground.
* EvilVersusOblivion: She's the "evil" to the Demon King's "oblivion."
* FauxAffablyEvil: Her ''words'' are polite, but her body language, gestures, and actions are filled with nothing but contempt for everyone other than herself, and outright disdain for everyone who doesn't jump to her whims.
* GreaterScopeVillain: Aside from the routine "revival" of the Demon King, she's responsible for all the evil and suffering in the world, and maybe she's responsible for the Demon king too.
* HumansAreInsects: She sees humans as the most stupid creatures alive, simply because they have inherently short life-spans.
* {{Hypocrite}}: She condemns "The Mad Emperor" of Mira for supposedly using hostages to compel her apostle to feed her false information when she herself happily uses hostages to force the loyalty of her apostles in the first place, case in point, Nyantan Keekipat.
* ImpracticallyFancyOutfit: How, just how, is she able to move around without having those "clothes" fall off and completely expose everything above her hips, at a minimum? Or simply tripping over her train and winding up flat on her face?
* JerkassGod: Oh, it goes without saying that ''she is one''.
* JustJokingJustification: In Chapter 217, she's briefed by Duke Polarie that Ayaka's good works and accomplishments have made her one of the most revered heroes. Vysis, not wanting to relent on how Ayaka "went mad" in defending Touka, goes into a fit and starts trying to make the duke backpedal and recant. When Duke Polarie instead justifies his statements with hard evidence, after she gives him a SlasherSmile for a while, suddenly goes "perky" and states that it was just a SecretTestOfCharacter that he passed, until he leaves the room and throws curses at his back.
* MakeAnExampleOfThem: On two fronts. First, she lets an unknown man in chains get eaten by a monster to then vaporize the monster, so the class sees how helpless they are before her, then disposes of the "E-rank" Mimori, just to show what happens to those who don't measure up.
* MeaningfulName: Her name "Vysis" sounds very similar to the term "vices" and she's got all TheSevenDeadlySins.
* MoodSwinger: Weaponized. When Ayaka came back victorious, defeating one of the demon king generals, while Kirihara came back in full retreat, even with Vysis herself backing him up, she flip-flopped her emotions every few seconds, showering Ayaka with praise one moment and then freezing time to tear into her with foul and abusive language to then switch back and restart time again. Amazingly, Ayaka managed to keep her wits about her and did not let herself get flustered into looking like a lucky idiot, or worse.
* NeverMyFault: She goes completely passive-aggressive when welcoming Ayaka back, victorious. On the one hand, she can't bring herself to publicly admit that all her assessments of Ayaka were wrong, and she needs to make amends, but on the other hand her public image won't let her get away with openly ignoring Ayaka's accomplishment of defeating one of the top generals of the demon king's army. So she speaks out of both sides of her mouth, praising Ayaka one second and condemning her the next.
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: Her cruel and petty disposal of Mimori at the beginning doesn't just turn around and bite her in the ass, it crawls up through her anal sphincter and tears her apart from the insides!
** Mimori's experience in the Disposal Dungeon isn't just TrainingFromHell to make him the powerhouse the world needs to deal with the Demon King, it gives him access to the tools left behind by previous "hindrances," [[HoistByHisOwnPetard one of which might lead to the secret to how to beat her, which is what she fears most.]]
** If not for Mimori coming out of Disposal Dungeon as Seras was passing by, the two would never have met, and Seras would very likely have been raped and murdered.
** Mimori hiring Seras as his bodyguard led to the near total annihilation of a powerful group of roving serial rapists who saw nothing wrong with kidnapping women and passing them around like sex toys before murdering them, and their boss who was addicted to the thrill of fighting "enemies" to the death and would happily do ''anything'', no matter how vile, to find one, even planning on turning on the "heroes" Vysis herself summoned, if he thought it would give him a good fight.
** Mimori's quest to find "the contraindicated witch" causes him to cross path with Eve, which results in the complete and total destruction of an illegal slaving ring, the gladiatorial arena where they are forced to fight to the death, the death of the corrupt Duke Zuan who ran it, and his entourage, and the elimination of the group Asinth that was trying to revive the Assassin's guild by using hard-to-detect poisons and calling it "curse magic."
* PlayingTheVictimCard: Whenever she so much as thinks that her decisions or character are being challenged, she whips out the CrocodileTears and starts publicly throwing herself a pity party, whining about how she's struggling, suffering, and working to save humanity only for her "ungrateful" accusers to decry her unjustly. The only reason she always gets away with it is that she can AppealToForce at any time and vaporize people where they stand.
* PsychoLesbian: Implied. While she has yet to show any interest in males, regardless of origin or appearance, she has shown great interest in other females, Ayaka, Nyantan, Seras, and is quite fond of putting them in fetishistic clothing. She's also morally bankrupt.
* PsychologicalProjection: Since she uses hostages to compel obedience, she presumes that the reason her apostle in the country of Mira didn't warn her about Mira's upcoming declaration of war is that said apostle had her relatives used as hostages.
* SelfServingMemory: She tells everyone, including herself, that at Mimori's disposal Ayeke briefly went mad and attacked her. In truth, she's the one who attacked Ayeka for daring to come to Mimori's defense, and was shocked that Ayeka managed to parry her attack, though failed to deal with the follow-up.
* SevenDeadlySins: She has the entire set.
** '''Pride''': She sees herself as the most beautiful, intelligent, and elegant being in the world, bar none, and nobody is ever fit to correct her, on anything.
** '''Gluttony''': She lives life to excess in everything she does, and flaunts the wealth she's acquired through all means, fair and foul, and don't you dare criticize her on it.
** '''Greed''': Everything in the world is her rightful property, including people's lives. Whatever she deigns to give them, or let them keep, is an act of "charity."
** '''Lust''': She has an unending lust for power and "entertainment" that comes from bloodshed in fighting the Demon King and the suffering of others. Not to mention that she's fond of all but forcing attractive women around her into stripperific clothing, as shown with both Ayaka and Nyantan whom she provides ChainmailBikini armor and then tells them that it's their uniform for battle against the gold-eyed monsters... At least said armor works as advertised and does indeed provide excellent protection against most monster attacks.
** '''Envy''': Got something better than her? She must take it, or destroy it if she can't get it. She demanded Seras become her "acolyte," being jealous of the latter's in-universe superior beauty. When Seras refused, the armies of all countries in the world were sent after her, and her home country was consumed by its neighbor Bakugos.
** '''Sloth''': While she often proclaims herself to be incredibly busy with other off-screen matters, she always delegates her on-screen duties as much as possible, and rarely does anything herself if someone else can do it for her.
** '''Wrath''': She's a SoftSpokenSadist that loves to watch the people she doesn't see any value in, or have somehow offended her, squirm, struggle, plead, and beg, to then fall into despair. When Mimori refused to do so as he was being transported to Disposal Ruins, she took it as a personal affront.
* SocialDarwinist: Fail to meet up to her standards and you don't deserve to live.
* SoftSpokenSadist: She's spewing polite words and phrases at all times, even when she's relishing the pain she delivers unto others. It's especially prominent in the manga when she's sending Mimori to the Disposal Dungeon. After she's goaded, threatened, and manipulated the rest of class 2-C to taunt and torment him as a prelude to his "departure," she, with all the sarcasm and CondescendingCompassion she can muster, tells him "it's okay to cry, there's no shame in it" wanting him to cry, plead, and beg, and is completely shocked and taken aback when Mimori flips her off and tells her "go to hell, Bitch Goddess!"
* StupidEvil: All her vile deeds are completely self-destructive, but she refuses to acknowledge it, let alone believe it. By the end of volume 6, she has so alienated the people of the world with her short-sighted superiority complex that the country of Mira openly declared war on her.
* SupernaturalGoldEyes: Calls herself a goddess and is illustrated with golden eyes.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: There is nothing more dangerous than finding yourself being deemed "useless" by her, as she will dispose of you the very first opportunity.

[[caption-width-right:350:Perhaps today is the day that brat dies, Bwahahaha!]]
They gave birth to him, apparently purely for the sake of having a punching bag that they could try to beat to death.
----
* AbusiveParents: As already mentioned, they saw Mimori only as a nuisance that they must kill, either by beatings, starvation, or exposure to the elements, locking him on the outdoor veranda, on the second floor, in the middle of winter with insufficient clothing.
* TheAlcoholic: They both drank to excess, and used their drunken stupor as an excuse to lose their temper and beat Mimori for no reason, aside from sheer sadism.
* ColdBloodedTorture: Oh they weren't just abusive, no. They didn't simply starve Mimori, beat him, and leave him on the veranda to freeze to death. Chapter 31 of the novel reveals they were ''so fond of ripping out his finger-nails'' that a monster attack which turns the fingers on his right hand to raspberries seems minor by comparison.
* CynicismCatalyst: They're the reason Mimori starts the story so jaded, he doesn't break down in tears when Vysis decides to dispose of him.
* DomesticAbuse: Even though they joined forces to beat up on Mimori, they also enjoyed beating up on each other. The biggest reason for the fights between them is that Mimori's mother had "a bad habit of buying too much food," ''which is the only reason Mimori had anything to eat, at all'', since he was fed the leftovers, and nothing else.
* EntitledBitch: And EntitledBastard. They honestly believed that, as Mimori's parents, they had the right to do ''whatever'' they wanted to him, even beating him to death, if they so desired, and they certainly desired it.
* ForTheEvulz: They had no reason or justification whatsoever for beating up on Mimori and trying to kill him. They just enjoyed doing it.
* HateSink: They are very easy to hate, seeing as they have no redeeming features, and only see their son as a punching bag, making it a sport to see how long it takes to beat him to death, and cheering each other on when it looks like it will finally happen.
* KarmaHoudini: They left Touka with his aunt and uncle and skipped town; [[TruthInTelevision as per Japanese law, they received no penalites.]]
* NeverMyFault: Whenever they were called out on their child abuse, they never took responsibility for their actions. They would twist rational thinking into pretzels trying to blame Mimori for it. In fact, chapter 2 of the manga has Mimori's father angrily yell "What the hell did you do? I'll fucking kill you!" while the neighbors and the police were trying to break the door down, after seeing a battered and bloody Mimori on the veranda with a GrowlingGut.
* NoNameGiven: Their names are never mentioned.
* ParentalAbandonment: When Child Services had finally had enough of their lies, excuses, and entitlement for abusing and trying to straight up murder Mimori, Mimori's father literally shoved him into his uncle's custody. Fortunately, said uncle treated Mimori as the son he always wanted, but never had, with genuine affection and kindness.
* ParentalNeglect: As mentioned, the only food Mimori had to eat was ''leftovers'' because his mother "had a bad habit of buying too much food."
* {{Sadist}}: They lived for the thrill of seeing Mimori in pain and suffering.
* TheSevenDeadlySins: In the few flashbacks we've had of them, they seem to be going for the whole set, but haven't quite got there yet.
** Wrath: Self-explanatory. They have explosive tempers and live for the thrill of beating up people, including each other.
** Greed: Although their primary motivation for trying to kill Mimori was pure sadism, they bragged that receiving "condolence money" from his death would have been a welcome bonus.
** Gluttony: They ate as much of the groceries Mimori's mother purchased as they could, and only reluctantly gave leftovers to Mimori himself. In fact, their main source of friction between each other is Mimori's mother buying more food than she and Mimori's father could eat, put together, purely because she wanted to eat it.

[[folder: Mimori's uncle and aunt-in-law.]]
The custodial "parent" of Mimori when his own father and mother finally realized that they didn't have any kind of legal right to try and kill Mimori, or simply abandon him.
----
* GoodParents: Unlike his biological parents, they treated Mimori like the son they always wanted, with genuine affection and kindness. This is the only thing that kept Mimori from going full-tilt MisanthropeSupreme.
* NoNameGiven: Sadly, their names are never mentioned. They deserve recognition for taking in a horribly abused teen and turning his life around, making him a healthy and productive member of society.
* ParentalSubstitute: Since Mimori's parents were so horrendous, ''Japan's'' Child Services stripped away custody, the uncle and aunt had to step up to the plate, being the closest living relatives. Fortunately for Mimori, they turned out to be GoodParents who treated him kindly.

* BathtubBonding: Discussed. He and Seras argue over who is going to bathe first at one point. ItMakesSenseInContext. After a bit of back and forth, neither of them willing to stand down, he states "why don't we both bathe together then." We are left hanging as to whether or not Seras took him up on it.

A beast-man gladiator Mimori rescues from the town of Mills, both because it's the right thing to do, and because she's the key to finding the "counter-indicated witch" that might, just might, have the means to teach Mimori how to deal with Vysis.

The sacred beast Touka and Seras rescue from [Heroic Sword].

* AssholeVictim: They are so repulsive, self-rigtheous, and fond of PlayingTheVictimCard that seeing Touka catch up to them and giving them graphic deaths is immensly satisfying.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: They are truly devoted to one another, and if one of them is struck down, the rest will hold a funeral, with a great deal of mourning.

* MoralSociopathy: He truly believes he's a good and kind man who wants to make the world a better place and is tolerant of the "fake humans" by "educating them on how to be useful tools" but he's a sadistic racist who sees fanatical hatred as ''insufficient motivation'' for genocide and that the only way to get through it is to make the killing as fun as possible. Teaching that to everyone who will listen.

* BadPeopleAbuseAnimals: He learned how to be a sadistic sociopath by beating up on harmless animals and friendly "monsters." His favorite game was going around popping slimes like soap-bubbles, so he happily focuses on Piggimaru when he sees the slime in the forest... Too late he realizes that was not what his [Instinct] was warning him about.

[[folder: Naiya]]

* BondVillainStupidity: When Toad and Bardwitcher fail to return after being sent out to find Naiya, they split what remains of their party in half and send three or four of their members into the forest while keeping the rest at the ruined location that serves as their temporary camp. While this does have some merit, the reason they're concerned about their two scouts' failure to return is that there are dangerous monsters in the area, and splitting their party in half only serves to increase the danger.
* CondescendingCompassion: They view themselves as "naive" and regret showing Naiya the "mercy" of not gouging out her eyes to keep her from running away from their life-threatening abuse.
* DidNotThinkThisThrough: They beat up on Naiya so hard, they could have killed her, even though that would piss off Vysis.

* FantasticRacism: If you're not human, they will treat you as a beast of burden, at best, as Naiya can testify.

* NeverMyFault: They push the responsibility for all their failures and shortcomings onto Naiya, even blaming her for the death of their partymember who was set upon by contingent of knights, after they sent him to scout, and Naiya couldn't possibly have had anything to do with it.

* StupidEvil: Treating Naiya, a small child, like a pack mule, getting violent with her when she trips because the luggage is too heavy for her, and using a blow that could have killed her when that would result in pissing off an evil goddess that has no issue giving gruesome deaths to anyone who slights her? OY! Then there's the fact that they bragged they were going to kill her the moment she got them into the Forbidden Country, when they though she would be of no further use... ''''while she's still Vysis's property!

* TeethClenchedTeamwork: In yet another manner that Vysis's own teachings turn around to bite her, these louts could not wrap their heads around the fact that Naiya is already a "useful tool" as Vysis's property and even though Ruin himself states that they need her alive and well to find and Faraway Country, so they can engage in their favorite pass-time, genocide, on the very mission Vysis herself put them on, they clenched their teeth, tried and failed to rein in their hatred, so would "educate" Naiya with violence every chance they got, then had the gall to look at it as a "betrayal" when she fled, for fear of her life.
* WantsAPrizeForBasicDecency: They honestly believe that Naiya should look on them with admiration for the fact that they didn't gouge her eyes out, bust her eardrums, and chop off her cat-ears the moment Vysis handed her to them because she's necessary for them to enter Faraway Country, and look at the fact that she fled after they kicked her so hard she went flying ''and nearly died'' as a "betrayal" from an ungrateful "fake human" who didn't appreciate Ruin's "education to be a useful tool." Said "education" of course involved frequent beatings without explanation.
* WhyDidYouMakeMeHitYou: Whenever they abused Naiya, they would shed CrocodileTears and act as if their violence is her fault, always making up an excuse.
* WouldHurtAChild: They frequently beat up Naiya, even kicking her so hard, she flew a great distance and coughed up blood when she smacked into a tree.

* LaserGuidedKarma: He was the most vocal about wanting to chop off Naiya's ears to "instrutruct" her as to why "fake humans" are hated. His ear winds up getting chopped off.

[[folder: King Ortra Straminus]]
Seras' father.

* AltarDiplomacy: After his nation is invaded by Bakugos, he offers his other daughter, crown princess Cattleya, to Civit Garland in a BureaucraticallyArrangedMarriage, to spare the lives of his people. Civit is forced by his government to accept the deal, although the guy isn't interested, only seeing fights to the death as BetterThanSex.
* GoodParents: Refused to force his daughter Seras into a BureaucraticallyArrangedMarriage with Civit, after learning that Civit planned to rape and murder her... At first, after she fled the kingdom, his interests turned in an "unfortunate direction."
* PastExperienceNightmare: Months after Seras fled the kingdom and Bakugos assimilated his lands, ignoring an attack of gold-eyed monsters, he still has nightmares.
* ParentalIncest: He lusts after Seras, and is terrified that another man wins her heart, as such, ''he puts out a contract on her life'' rather than take the risk.
* SelfFulfillingProphecy: Puts out a contract on Seras, which includes her corpse being brought before him "looking pure," so he doesn't have to worry about some other guy defiling her or winning her heart. It is precisely because he puts out this contract on her that she's become a LustObject with the very same people who are out to kill her trying to rape her, and the fact that she's rescued by Mimori, repeatedly, that Mimori's won her heart.
* {{Yandere}}: After putting out the contract on Seras, he kills himself, so they "will be together forever." Cattleya is ''not'' amused.

[[folder: Crown Princess Cattleya]]
The first daughter of King Ortra.

The student bullied by Oyamada.

* BadDreams: Months after Seras fled the kingdom and Bakugos assimilated his lands, ignoring an attack of gold-eyed monsters, he still has nightmares.

* PayEvilUntoEvil: From the moment he was thrown into Disposal Ruins, his policy has been "if you want to harm me, I'll just be faster and harm you first." This reaches its zenith when he encounters the mercenary party [Heroic Sword]. After he speaks with Toad and heard how fanatically racist they are, to the the point that they believe sadistically geocoding the Speed tribe ''is something to be proud of'', and consider them trying to peacefully coexist "evil", he throws their own standards back at them as he sadiscatlly starts to kill them. "It's your policy to completely crush people who disgust you. Well, I find you disgusting, so I'm going to crush you. You don't have a problem with that right?"

* StupidEvil: Treating Naiya, a small child, like a pack mule, getting violent with her when she trips because the luggage is too heavy for her, and using a blow that could have killed her when that would result in pissing off an evil goddess that has no issue giving gruesome deaths to anyone who slights her? OY!

* EnfanteTerible: When they were all small children, they completely genocided Eve's clan, for no discernable reason, and in the present day, boast about it to showcase how strong they are.
