[[folder:The Giraffe]]
!! The Giraffe
-> '''Voiced by''': Creator/KenjiroTsuda (Japanese), Creator/JayHickman (English)

A mysterious talking giraffe that oversees the Starlight revue auditions.
----
* AllPowerfulBystander: He can grant any kind of wish desired by victorious Stage Girls in the Auditions [[spoiler: at the cost of the brilliance and motivation of those who've lost]] up to, and including [[spoiler: looping time for an unknown amount of repetitions]] but never directly intervenes in any of the girls' Revues as he prefers to be a spectator to their duels. The most he does is subtly manipulate them into taking certain actions to move things forward so he can get to see the kind of performances he ''wants'' to see, but that's it. When the Korosu show up and become a problem in ''[=ReLIVE=]'', he merely sits back and does nothing, preferring that Elle handle the situation this time.
* AmbiguouslyEvil: It's not clear what his motives actually are, but given that the auditions [[spoiler:drain the motivation of those who don't come out on top]], he's probably not an ally.
* AscendedExtra: In the live plays, only his voice is heard and a silhouette of him is seen, only showing up at the end of the first stage play to speak to Headmaster Souda in private without doing much as Souda-sensei is the primary overseer of the Auditions in the play. In the anime, he's given Souda-sensei's role, and gets to directly interact with the girls this time around and even physically appear.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: [[spoiler: Does this in the finale, encouraging the viewer to become Starlight’s audience.]]
* TheComicallySerious: [[NotSoAboveItAll While he has his moments in the anime series]], he fully becomes this in the ''Shoujo Conte All Starlight'' gag anime.
* CompositeCharacter: He takes up Headmaster Souda's place and role from the original stage play in the anime, where he serves as the primary initiator and overseer of the revue auditions in her stead.
* DemotedToExtra: He appears much less frequently in the mobile game than he did in the anime. He shows up more in ''Shoujo Conte All Starlight'' anime more at least, and he makes his comeback as a prominent character again in the ''Arcana Arcadia'' arc of the Main Story.
* ManipulativeBastard: [[spoiler: He essentially kickstarts the end of Nana's timelooping wish after having grown bored of the repeat Revues by getting her to parrot his words of wishing for "an unpredictable stage". This eventually leads the Giraffe to arrange for Hikari's arrival in Seisho Academy, ensuring Karen's involvement in the Auditions and the rest is history.]]
** In ''[=ReLIVE=]'', it's also ''very'' heavily implied [[spoiler: that he was responsible for giving Elle's mother the Elle Note Elle would eventually use to unwittingly write stories that would change reality to her whims, making him indirectly responsible for the events of the mobile game]] despite his minimal presence there.
* NoNameGiven: He is merely known as "The Giraffe" and nothing more.
* NonstandardCharacterDesign: In a series otherwise full of human girls with fairly typical anime designs, the presence of a realistically-drawn talking giraffe and the MoodWhiplash that accompanies his scenes and plot involvement is rather jarring.
* NotSoDifferent: Claims this to [[spoiler: the [[BreakingTheFourthWall audience]]. After all, if you're still watching, [[YouBastard you don't want to see the story end either]].]]
* RealityWarper: [[spoiler: Is at least powerful enough to put everyone in a GroundhogDayLoop on Nana's request.]]
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Gives Karen a downplayed version of this trope, stating that a girl who can't wake up on her own and is fine with not being the lead isn't good enough for the auditions.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: Despite not appearing as frequently as he did in the anime, [[spoiler: the implication that he both created and gave Elle's mother the "Elle Note" Elle Nishino uses makes him indirectly responsible for the events in the mobile game's main plot.]]
* TalkingAnimal: A particularly ironic example, as giraffes are (incorrectly) known to not make sounds.
* VerbalTic: "Wakarimasu" (understood).
* TheVoice: He doesn't physically appear in the stage play version but he ''is'' heard as he's still a big presence there. The most we see of him is an outline of himself but that's it.

A mysterious woman who oversees the Revues in the ''[=ReLIVE=]'' game.

[[caption-width-right:350:Click [[labelnote:here]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_20191226_172930.jpg[[/labelnote]] to see [[spoiler: Elle Nishino.]]]]


----
* AffectionateNickname: Is given the nickname "Ellelle" by Aruru [[spoiler: after the girls learn the truth about her to distinguish her from her real self in conversation, [[OneSteveLimit as having to make the distinction between "Re Life Elle" and "real Elle" was starting to get confusing.]] The others quickly pick adopt its use as well.]]
* AuthorAvatar: [[spoiler: In-Universe example. Our Elle is actually one for the real Elle, made with the power of the "Elle Note" to act on her behalf in her stories and view them through her eyes. The two share experiences to some extent, but cannot actually communicate, which means our Elle is unable to tell her real self how much danger she's putting other people in, and because the real Elle only vaguely remembers she sees through our Elle's eyes she is unlikely to learn the truth herself.]]
* AmbiguouslyHuman: She appears like an ordinary young woman, but due to her being in cahoots with the Giraffe and Andrew, her involvement with the fantastic aspects of the Auditions, her ability to summon the Stage Girls any time she pleases, as well as her tendency to come and go whenever she likes via magic, it's deliberately left unclear if she's actually human in nature or not. [[spoiler: The fact that she's actually a 5-year-old girl in the real world just raises more questions.]]
* BeneathTheMask: Behind her stage persona is [[spoiler: a desperately lonely little girl who loves plays with all her heart.]]
* ButtMonkey: In ''Shoujo Conte All Starlight'', she's either mocked or ignored by the Seisho girls for forcing them to go through another round of Auditions again, and they make it clear to her that they're sick of it.
* DidntThinkThisThrough: Elle's request [[spoiler: for the girls to destroy the Elle Note. While its abilities can be dangerous, [[NoOntologicalInertia its effects are lifted after the story is completed]], making the note's destruction [[SenselessSacrifice a disproportionate response to something that's not a problem if handled correctly]]. It was mainly a problem [[LockedOutOfTheLoop because Elle and Andrew didn't tell enough people when it happened]], [[NiceJobBreakingItHero which trapped the players onstage when they couldn't complete the stories by themselves.]] Maya attributes this to Elle's youth, [[JustifiedTrope as children are more prone to panic and to rushing into decisions]], and gently tells her that it's just a matter of making sure her playmates can go home at the end of the day.]]
* {{Expy}}: Of the equally enigmatic Headmaster Souda from the original stage play, taking up her role of being the secondary overseer and primary initiator of the Auditions after The Giraffe.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Elle's true identity has been hinted on in specific occasions:
** Andrew dotes on her like a loving parent would a child. [[spoiler: He treats her that way because Elle really is a child in the real world and that he's her stuffed animal given life in a dream-like world.]]
** When Claudine and the other Seisho girls press her for answers on what exactly was happening in [[spoiler:''"Maya Tendo" Erased'']], she cries out to Andrew for help since even she can't explain it properly. [[spoiler: She acts exactly as a kid would when they're cornered and pressured into answering something they don't know.]]
** In ''Self-Proclaimed, Stage Girls'', when Andrew conjures up a Frontier School of Arts pamphlet to prove a point about their school, Elle is overwhelmed by the amount of kanji written there, prompting Andrew to read it for her. [[spoiler: In Japan, kids don't learn kanji until they've entered first grade, when they're around six years old, so Elle's reaction towards the pamphlet is a hint that she's younger or around that age.]]
** She reacts to Aruru's ideas about her "LIVE" in ''Self-Proclaimed, Stage Girls'' with [[spoiler: child-like]] wonder.
** Aruru observes and outright says that Elle has the same shiny eyes as they did [[spoiler: when they were younger.]]
* GooGooGodlike: [[spoiler:With her notebook, the five-year-old Elle can drag stage girls into reenacting plays, warp reality, cause people to disappear, and manipulate memories. She is completely unaware of all this.]]
* HeroicSacrifice: Attempts one, anyway. [[spoiler:Our Elle puts herself at risk when she asks the girls to take the Elle Note from her real self and destroy it, [[CessationOfExistence in spite of what that might mean for her and Andrew as creations of its power.]] [[AvertedTrope They refuse.]] Also {{Deconstructed}}, as the girls realized that the Re LIVEs weren't actually that dangerous if they were handled correctly, which would have made this a SenselessSacrifice if they had gone through with it.]]
* TheHost: She is the presiding emcee in the onstage revues in ''[=ReLIVE=]'' alongside The Giraffe who stayed more in the sidelines.
* MoralityPet: The sharp-tongued Andrew is only ever really kind to her and only her.
* MsExposition: Is the one in charge of explaining the things the Stage Girls need to know about the circumstances and events happening in ''[=ReLIVE=]''.
* ObliviouslyEvil: [[spoiler: The real Elle is just a lonely little girl with an active imagination and a notebook that, for all she knows, shows her what she writes there in her dreams, which she can't quite remember in detail after waking. Andrew and our Elle have learned better, but can't communicate with her and so she goes on not understanding the full ramifications of her actions.]]
* OlderAlterEgo: [[spoiler: Her appearance as a young woman in the Auditions is essentially this to the 5-year-old Elle Nishino, as a result of the younger Elle's wish of wanting to see plays all by herself without the need for adult supervision.]]
* OnlyOneName: If she even has a surname, she's not telling. [[spoiler: It's Nishino.]]
* OneSteveLimit: [[spoiler: Hilariously, Re LIVE Elle is on the receiving end of this by her real self; Aruru starts finding it difficult to distinguish the two in conversation and so gives Re LIVE Elle the nickname "Ellelle" to make things easier. It catches on very quickly with the other girls.]]
* {{Protectorate}}: To Andrew.
* RealityWarper: [[spoiler: The real Elle's "Elle Note". Anything written in this notebook will happen for real, up to and including performing a RetGone on plays and people, and is the true force behind the events of the game's story.]]
* RetGone: [[spoiler: The five-year old Elle unwittingly performs this whenever she uses the "Erasure" plot point and variations thereof in her Elle Note; anyone and anything involved in such performances ceases to exist outside of it. Andrew and Elle consider it such a dangerous ability that they ask the cast to destroy the notebook despite what that might mean for the two of them. It's pointed out however that it's temporary, only lasting while the Re Live in question is ongoing; finishing the story restores things to normal. The real danger was that [[LockedOutOfTheLoop not enough people knew what was happening]], which ran the risk of a performance never ending when those involved were unable to complete the story.]]
* TheStoic: Is always calm and unemotive, though there would sometimes be moments where [[NotSoStoic she'll put her guard down and let her true feelings loose]]. She's more expressive in the ''Shoujo Conte All Starlight'' gag series though, to comedic effect.
* TookALevelInCheerfulness: [[spoiler: After her secret is out and the other girls assure her that they have no problems with the circumstances surrounding the Elle Note and vow to be there for her, she readily greets the others with a smile whenever they meet, be it during a Re Live or in the real world.]]
* StoryBreakerPower: [[spoiler: The real Elle's "Elle Note" allows her to unwittingly bend reality to her wishes based on whatever she writes there. See RealityWarper for a fraction of what her special notebook is capable of.]]
* WhenSheSmiles: Gives a heartfelt one at the conclusion of ''Self-Proclaimed, Stage Girls'', moved as she was by the Frontier girls' performance.
* YoungerThanTheyLook: [[spoiler: Her true form in the real world is that of a 5 year old girl named Elle Nishino. [[WiseBeyondTheirYears While our Elle has a relatively mature disposition and insight]], the mask sometimes slips when she's flustered and emotional.]]

[[folder:Andrew]]
!! Andrew
-> '''Voiced by:''' ???

A strange kigurumi mole character and ''[=ReLIVE=]'s official mascot. He serves as the shopkeeper in the game.
----
%%* AmbiguousGender: Though he's primarily referred to as a "he" out of convenience due to his masculine name and character, the actual identity and therefore gender of the person inside the mole costume is unknown.
* AmbiguouslyHuman: Whether or not there's someone actually inside the mole suit or if Andrew is something similar to the [[TalkingAnimal Giraffe]] is anyone's guess. [[spoiler: He's actually a stuffed animal toy cherished by Elle in the real world.]]
* BerserkButton:
** Making fun of his looks is this for him. He also doesn't take it well when Kaoruko, and later, Futaba, calls him an "Abominamole".
** ''Downfall'' reveals that he has a more serious berserk button in the form of calling [[MoralityPet Elle]] a liar, or just generally insulting her for that matter. [[spoiler: When Tamao confronts Elle and calls her as such at the beginning of ''Downfall'', Andrew quickly goes to Elle's defense and delivers a ''very'' scathing [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech tirade]] against Tamao, which leaves her shaken before Elle had to tell him to stop.]]
* ButtMonkey: None of the Stage Girls seem to treat him with much respect. It's a running gag in the game that they keep calling him Abominamole despite his dislike of the nickname.
* DamnYouMuscleMemory: Getting called "Abominamole" so much through the Main Story has more or less permanently taped down his berserk button after ''Playwriter Stage Girl''; his knee-jerk reaction has become so strong that the next time he is greeted by Mahiru [[spoiler: during the Miku collab]], he reflexively shouts that he's not an "Abominamole" before realizing that Mahiru had actually addressed him by name.
* EarlyBirdCameo: Appears in the very beginning of ''[=ReLIVE=]'' as the game's shopkeeper, but doesn't become relevant in the plot nor is he formally introduced to the girls until the 7th Main Story chapter. He also shows up in a CG still and Memoir in "The Waltz of the Beautiful Beast" event [[https://revuestarlight.fandom.com/wiki/File:A_Mysterious_Second-hand_Shop.png albeit with his back turned,]] which was released some months before Main Story 7.
* EtTuBrute: When Elle starts finding the "Abominamole" nickname to be funny.
* HateSink: As most of the characters are meant to be sympathetic, and as the giraffe is too mysterious and appears too infrequently to serve as a consistent villain, Andrew draws all of the ire with his {{Jerkass}} personality.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: In ''Self-Proclaimed, Stage Girls'', getting introduced to the Frontier girls repeatedly as the Abominamole causes him to jump the gun when Tsukasa and then Shizuha rejoin the party, which gets them to refer to him by it too.
* {{Jerkass}}: Simply put, while he can be somewhat cordial towards the Stage Girls from time to time, [[MoralityPet Elle]] is the only one he's truly nice to.
* JerkassHasAPoint: Though he can get incredibly rude about it, the points he makes when talking down to the cast have factual basis, and they often find themselves unable to argue.
** [[spoiler: As stated above, he calls out Tamao for just hoping that someone or something would save Rinmeikan's Performing Arts Department rather than make the main effort herself. It's brutally stated, but it also sums up the heart of the matter, and having it laid out so clearly does help Tamao figure out what to do going forward once she gets her feelings together.]]
** [[spoiler: He points out how Frontier's practices don't quite live up to the sweeping aims it uses to draw in applicants, dismissing it as just a business. Aruru finds herself unable to argue on that front, but snaps at him when he similarly dismisses her friends' skills as Stage Girls.]]
* MaliciousMisnaming: Calls Kaoruko "Kyoto Woman" as an insult when referring to her.
* MrExposition: If Elle isn't in any position to explain stuff to the Stage Girls then he does it in her stead.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Normally he doesn't take being called "Abominamole" lying down, especially from Kaoruko. [[spoiler: When Kaoruko gives him a verbal lashing about the danger the Elle Note is putting them all in, he just meekly admits they're right to be upset.]]
* PapaWolf: He acts fatherly towards Elle and is very protective of her. [[spoiler: He admits that even if there is a way to tell the real Elle to stop writing in the Elle Note, he might not be able to bring himself to do it, as seeing the girls perform the stories she writes puts a smile on the otherwise lonely and melancholy little Elle's face.]]
* SeriesMascot: For ''[=ReLIVE=]''.
* SitcomArchnemesis: He squabbles with Kaoruko a lot, and Kaoruko specifically.
* TookALevelInJerkass: While he wasn't exactly pleasant to the other schools' Stage Girls prior, he's ''worse'' in ''Self-Proclaimed, Stage Girls'' where he's outright condescending and contemptuous towards the Frontier Stage Girls except for Aruru and spends most of the story disparaging each of them for their perceived failings as Stage Girls, something [[BewareTheNiceOnes Aruru]] doesn't take too kindly to.
* UglyCute: An InUniverse inversion. Despite Andrew's cutesy mascot appearance, many of the girls seem to be revolted by him. Mahiru and Hikari are both outright ''offended'' when Futaba remarks that Andrew reminds her of Suzudaru Cat and Mr. White respectively based on his appearance.
--> '''Hikari and Mahiru:''' Don't you compare them to that thing.
--> '''Futaba:''' I'm sorry...
* VerbalTic: He ends his sentences with "doryuu~"[[note]]how the last part of his name is pronounced in Japanese, and an alternate reading of the Japanese word for "mole"[[/note]].
