to:
Hisame is Sami's older sister, and at 27 years old the two have an 11 year gap between them. They get along well now, but that gap - made worse by Sami's illness - was once nearly insurmountable. Hisame is a professor at a local university, where she also teaches a physics class for Yuuhi and is Mikazuki's academic advisor. She's not very fond of Yuuhi, thanks to his gloomy nature and his increasing closeness to Sami, though she's not party to the real nature of their relationship.
Asahina Shigure is Sami and Hisame's father. He is also a published author of action novels, with a sizable series under his belt. He stayed in Japan to raise Sami for most of Sami's life, but now travels extensively to research and find inspiration for his writing.
Asahina Haruko is Sami and Hisame's mother. She is an accomplished and famous doctor, and threw all her energies into solving her second daughter's illness. Unfortunately, the best research opportunities were in a hospital in France, forcing her to abandon Sami and her husband, estranging mother and daughter as a result.

* LastNameBasis - As friendly as everyone gets, nobody really refers to Nagumo by his given name. Except Mikazuki, of course, who calls him "Sou-chan."
Tarou knows where he's going in life. He's worked hard at learning to cook and intends on heading to a vocational school once he graduates high school, inspired by the cafe that his neighbor Hanako's family once ran. He's not the bravest of the Knights, nor even the most capable, but as one of the kindest he makes friends easily with the others. He agrees to fight for the sake of protecting Hanako, who was also recruited. He also not-so-secretly loves Hanako but is afraid of changing their relationship. Lance Lumiere, the Mouse Knight, complements Tarou quite well - if only as one coward trying to bolster the spirits of another. It's unfortunate for Lance that his partner is so close to the Mantis Knight's partner, as Lance and Kil hate each other deeply.
* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend - "Yet."
Hanako is an intelligent, talented high school student, and Tarou's next-door neighbor and classmate. They've been together as long as they can remember, and even though they are the same age, she has always been his "responsible older sister." She keeps her own counsel and resists being drawn into the close camaraderie of the other Knights. Her partner is Kil Sonne, the Mantis Knight, who is harsh and cold with an overdeveloped sense of martial pride. Or maybe he's just a bloodthirsty JerkAss.
* ImportantHaircut
* [[spoiler:KarmaHoudini - Rather literally, as her wish was to kill a criminal. The consequence of wishing for someone's death is to take the burden of their karma upon yourself, making you more likely to suffer an unpleasant end as a result.

Nagumo is a middle-aged former police detective. He is also a potent close combatant, infamous for a "hundred kick" flurry of blows used to overwhelm an opponent. As a former detective, he brings a much-needed sense of order and experience to the Knights, helping turn them into a coherent unit instead of just a group of random fighters with their own eclectic styles. He is also fiercely protective of the younger Knights, considering them "just children" who shouldn't be fighting. Dance Dark, the Horse Knight, complements Nagumo with a similarly serious mien. Dance does what he can to advise and help Nagumo, though there's one line he won't cross - no rides, no way.

Short, skinny, and the most dangerous person on the face of the Earth. Samidare is a 16-year-old girl who was chosen to be Anima's vessel and agent in the current round of the war between Princess and Mage. Thanks to Anima's power, she is titanically strong and has stamina to match. She also has a well-hidden dark side, as she intends on winning the war not to save Earth, but so she can be its destroyer.

* StealthHiBye - Her astounding physical abilities let Sami pull this off if she feels like it, simply by jumping away when nobody's looking.
* SuperPowerLottery - Definitely a winner. She starts with impressive physical abilities that only grow, and then begins developing PsychicPowers by drawing more directly from Anima.
