Bokukko is now def-only


* {{Bokukko}}: Likely because she was born from the male Jerga's Source, she refers to herself using the male pronoun ''"boku"''.

!! Jerga Kanon Class

[[folder:In General]]
!! Jerga Kanon
The elite class of the Hero Academy, composed of various reincarnations from the Hero Kanon's seven Sources. They named in honor of him and his mentor, General Jerga. In actuality, however, they are a part of a vast conspiracy by Commander Jerga.
----
* ActionBomb: They are all capable of detonating their Sources and being quickly replaced, which Jerga planned to use to wipe out the demons.
* AllYourPowersCombined: Their key advantage is the human spell, '''Asc''', which allows armies and even regular citizens to concentrate their power into a single hero, giving them incredible offensive capability. It was designed primarily to counter the demon spell, '''Gyze''', which instead shares the caster's power with their subordinates for defensive purposes. Needless to say, Anos causes no shortage of misery to them when he reveals that demons are just as capable of using it ''alongside'' '''Gyze'''.
* ArtificialHuman: Their Sources are all mass-produced from Eleonore, the one with Jerga's original source.
* BreakTheHaughty: What most of them suffered during the interschool training trip.
* ChildSoldiers: While both school practice military drills and training, Gairadite was genuinely readying their students for war against their demon neighbors.
* CloneArmy: Their purpose is to become a massive military force for the genocide of all demonkind, regardless of the races intermixing having children with each other these past 1,000 years.
* FakeUltimateHero: None of them have Kanon's Sources. Instead, they're a CloneArmy based on Jerga's Source.
* HeroesPreferSwords: Fittingly for a class that is ''supposedly'' the reincarnations of a legendary swordsman but are actually a CloneArmy of his mentor, they all wield holy or magic swords as their weapons of choice.
* ThePowerOfHate: What actually powers the spell '''Asc''' and empowers them. Jerga's hatred for demonkind hidden within the spell fuel their need to humiliate and kill any demon they come across.
* QuantityVsQuality: Ledriano and Zeshia, who were empowered by the 10 million prayers of the people of Gairadite via '''Asc''' were still soundly beaten by Anos, who was similarly empowered by his 8 fans through '''Asc'''. Anos revealed that the reason they lost was due to the fact that the Hero class received shallow and empty feelings through their '''Asc''' connection to the people of Gairadite, unlike Kanon and himself, who were able to receive the genuine feelings of love, hope, and support through the people in their connections.
* TautologicalTemplar: The Jerga Kanon class like to talk a big game about how holy and righteous they are, even as they blatantly cheat during every single competition in the interschool training event in order to humiliate the demon academy students. And that's not even getting into how their ''true'' objectives are murderous in the short term and outright genocidal in the long term.
* TragicBigot: All of them were created with an inherent hatred for demonkind in their hearts without a say in the matter. While most of them relish in their sadism now, it's unknown how they would have turned out if their hearts weren't tainted with Jerga's hatred at birth. Continual usage of '''Asc''' really didn't help their mental health.
* UnwittingPawn: At the end, they are little more than Jerga's puppets in his campaign to wipe out demonkind from the face of the planet, eventually being overtaken by him due overusing the '''Asc''' spell (though Anos manages to save them at the end).
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: Despite all the horrible things they do during the interschool training event, the people of Gairadite were ALL still willing to cheer them on and lend them their power through '''Asc'''. Jerga's corruptive influence within '''Asc''' might have had something to do with that, alongside the human population's ignorant bigotry.
* WalkingSpoiler: It's hard to talk about ANY of them without revealing the vast conspiracy that surrounds them.
* YoungerThanTheyLook: Despite looking like teenagers, and in the case of Diego, an adult man, they were all spawned by Eleonore with their current appearance so it's difficult to tell what their real chronological age is.

[[folder:Diego Kanon Ijaysica]]
!!Diego Kanon Ijaysica
-> '''Voiced by''': Creator/MitsuruMiyamoto (Japanese), Creator/KyleHebert (English)

The director of the academy.
----
* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: He orders his soldiers to attack the retreating demon army from behind and cuts the arm off a soldier who questions his order. This causes many of his soldiers to start doubting him, especially when he's ordering them to attack [[spoiler:Lay, who many of them acknowledge as Kanon reborn. When Diego claims that he's the real Kanon, Lay dares him to wield Evansmana, which rejects him and proves he's not really Kanon. This is the final straw that convinces all his soldiers to abandon him]].
* AndShowItToYou: Anos pulls out his ''soul'' instead of his heart but the trope is otherwise the same.
* AntagonisticOffspring: Despite being created by Eleonore, he holds her in contempt for failing to inherit Jerga's personality and treats her as a tool.
* AssholeVictim: Giving the first Diego was a condescending jerk that cheated in the exam between the two academies and later brutally stabbed Misha while planning to sacrifice all his students to kill Anos's class, his end was well-earned, even if it was gruesome.
* BadBoss: He tries to have all his students self-destruct in order to kill the demons. Anos calls him out on the hypocrisy and complete lack of knowledge of who Kanon was, as Kanon gladly suffered and died time and again if it meant he could avoid sacrificing others.
* BodyHorror: After being demonized, Diego's right arm is malformed, the skin being ripped apart by the muscle tissue underneath.
* CruelAndUnusualDeath: The first Diego gets stabbed by Anos, then turned into a grotesque monster, then has his root extracted from his body (which Anos described as being as painful enough to being worse than death) and destroyed in front of him, killing him finally.
* FauxAffablyEvil: He tries to come off as a polite educator despite rigging the class and the mock battle to humiliate the demons. [[spoiler:He also never intended to let the demons leave the academy alive.]]
* HateSink: Maybe the biggest one the series featured. Unlike other despicable antagonists like Emilia (who, pre-redemption, at the very least cared about her family) and Jerga (whose monstrous actions were motivated by the pain of losing his loved ones), he lacks any redeeming quality and is portrayed as an unreasonable mass of hatred that not only despises demons, but is willing to turn all of his students and subordinates in mindless puppets and living bombs for the sake of ensuring the genocide of all demons. Is telling something when he's the only character of the series Anos willingly kills (though he gets resurrected thanks to being anthropomorphic magic) without giving him a second chance, unlike the aforementioned Emilia/Jerga. The closest he gets to some kind of sympathy is that he's a magical homunculus fated to hate on demons by default no matter what he does or how many times he dies.
* TheHeavy: Although Jerga is technically the main villain of the Hero Academy arc, since he spends most of the arc dormant until its last battle, Diego, as the headmaster of the Hero Academy and the leader of the humans, is the primary villain during the first half of the arc, until being forced to share this position with Avos Dilhevia/[[spoiler:Lay]] for the second half and then being overriden by Jerga himself at the climax.
* ImHavingSoulPains: After Anos rips out his Source from his chest, he starts damaging it to subject Diego to pain that Anos is happy to explain is ''much'' worse than death.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: He subjects Misha to this, repeatedly stabbing her with a sword while she's down. After Anos arrives to save her, he returns the gesture in kind and ''then some'' when he rips out his Source and starts torturing him with it.
* KarmicTransformation: Anos turns him into a demon, but the spell to do so also makes him monstrous-looking due to the evil in his heart.
* MesACrowd: After Anos destroys his Source, Diego comes back the next day with no memories of his previous death. This is because Eleonore mass-produces his Source.
* SoulJar: Episode 13 implies he was the main host for Jerga's disembodied spirit, or at least his personified hatred. Jerga's spirit is seen tearing itself away from Diego once the final stages of his genocidal plan was beginning to enter it's final stages, killing his host.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Once Jerga's plans begins to come to fruition, his spirit leaves Diego's body and becomes the Anti-Demon spell, while Diego collapses dead.

[[folder:Eleonore Bianca]]
!!Eleonore Bianca
-> '''Voiced by''': Sayumi Watabe (Japanese), Creator/AbbyTrott (English)
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eleonore.png]]
A student of the elite Jerga Kanon class and the only one who isn't hostile towards demons.
----
* AnthropomorphicPersonification: Eleonore is essentially all the goodness and humanity from the original Jerga.
* {{Bokukko}}: Likely because she was born from the male Jerga's Source, she refers to herself using the male pronoun ''"boku"''.
* CleavageWindow: It's rather small, but still visible.
* DeathSeeker: She wants Anos to kill her so that she isn't used to wage war against the demons, though Anos insists that he can prevent the war while allowing her to live happily.
* EnemyWithout: She's an inverted example for Jerga, since she inherited part of his Source, yet desires peace between humans and demons. This isn't simply an accident, since the narration states that Jerga was conflicted between wanting revenge on the demons and wanting to keep his people from experiencing the same feelings of hatred that he does, with Eleonore representing the latter.
* HandOrObjectUnderwear: When she gets encased nude in a crystal, she is shown in one of the light novel's illustrations to cover her ample bust with her arms and hands.
* MeaningfulAppearance: The embodiment of all Jerga's positive qualities ends up taking a form similar to the people he most loved, his lost wife and daughter.
* MotherOfAThousandYoung: Although she didn't actually birth them, so much as magically spawn them into existence, Eleonore definitely counts. She has been forced to continually mass produce the school's top students for the last two millenia! In particular, by the time Anos meets and free her, she had created approximately 10,000 Zeshia copies, making the trope quite literally in this case.
* MumLooksLikeASister: Despite creating Diego and Zeshia and considering herself their "mother", she looks like a teenager.
* OppositeSexClone: Despite deriving the essence of her existence from the blatantly male Jerga's source, she wound up being an equally blatant woman.
* RavenHairIvorySkin: She has long black hair and pale skin. She happens to be beautiful and voluptous.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: She's around 2,000 years old, created in the immediate aftermath of Anos' death and sealing off the four realms from each other.
* StepfordSmiler: Despite the happy façade she puts on, she suffers from crippling depression and fundamentally believes she deserves to die for constantly sending her children to their deaths over the past 2000 years.
* SympathyForTheDevil:
** Despite Diego's abusive treatment of her and Zeshia, she pities him because he's constantly being recreated just to feel hatred towards demons.
** She is about the only student in the Hero Academy who does not treat Anos with a hint of animosity or hostility, gladly letting them inside using her authority when they arrive ''far'' sooner than they expected due to teleportation, and leaking Diego's plans to Anos to put a stop to his plans to murder the demon delegation during the interschool exams.
* WomenAreWiser: The AnthropomorphicPersonification of all the goodness, sanity, and overall wiseness that was held within Jerga apparently was also connected to a feminine part of his identity, since when that split from him it became the very female OppositeSexClone Eleonore.

[[folder:Zeshia Kanon Ijaysica]]
!!Zeshia Bianca
-> '''Voiced by''': Creator/MisakiKuno (Japanese), Creator/LisaReimold (English)

Rank 1 of the Hero Academy.
----
* CuteMute: An adorable tiny girl basically incapable of speech. It doesn't stop her from acting quite endearing outside of a battle.
* DullEyesOfUnhappiness: Her eyes are dark grey and murky without a hint of light in them in during the inter-academy competitions, as she doesn't want to kill Demons despite the brainwashing effects of '''Asc''' forcing her to try to do so.
* EmotionlessGirl: Downplayed. She doesn't seem to emote at first, even when blowing herself up, but during the skirmish with the demon army, she cries and reveals she doesn't want to kill the demons.
* WhamLine: At the end of the hero arc, after being TheQuietOne the entire time, she finally says one line: [[spoiler:"Please save her. Please save Mama."]]
* WeHaveReserves: [[spoiler:Keeps using self-destruct magic on herself in her first battle with Anos, as Eleonore can just keep cloning new copies of her. Taken to the extreme when she unwillingly becomes part of the Demon Subjugation Force and we see an entire ''battalion'' of her standing shoulder to shoulder.]]

[[folder:Ledriano Kanon Azeschen]]
!!Ledriano Azeschen
-> '''Voiced by''': Creator/RyoheiKimura (Japanese), Creator/JMichaelTatum (English)

Rank 2 of the Hero Academy.
----
* AxCrazy: He is ''very'' eager to see Anos killed with the help of 10 million humans and fellow students giving him power through the spell '''Asc'''.
* TheDragon: Given the other top ranked students from the Hero Academy don't have what it takes to hold the position (Zesshia is unable to speak, while Laos and Heine are too impulsive), he acts as the right hand man of Diego for the most part.
* EvilMakesYouUgly: While otherwise a bonafide, bespectacled {{bishonen}}, in the climax of his fight with Anos, when '''Asc''' takes the final toll on his sanity, his face deforms in an horrible wrinkled grimace with his eyes about to jump from their orbits.
* FourEyesZeroSoul: He wears glasses and is antagonistic towards the demon students.
* TheGlassesComeOff: When he faces off against Anos, the most powerful of the Demon class (and in general, really), he casually takes off his glasses and tosses them to the ground.
* NotSoStoic: He seems calm and composed until Anos shrugs off all of his attacks, at which point he becomes more enraged and unhinged.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Heine Kanon Iorg]]
!!Heine Iorg
-> '''Voiced by''': Creator/RieKugimiya

Rank 3 of the Hero Academy.
----
* EmpathicWeapon: His swords are this, as Lay claims they are "weeping" from being wielded by a violent sadist like him. After Lay steals them, they also refuse to come back to Heine after deeming Lay a worthier master.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Lay calls him unworthy of his swords, robs them from him, and kills him with them.
* {{Sadist}}: He enjoys causing pain to the demons and uses weapons designed to give them Stigma wounds, which cannot be healed except by experts like Anos.
* SummonToHand: His swords are [[EmpathicWeapon Empathic Weapons]] that ''were'' capable of this until Lay steals them and convinces them he'll be a better master.
* VillainsWantMercy: When Lay takes his swords, Heine begs him not to use their Stigma function, despite intending to torture Lay that way earlier.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Laos Kanon Jilfor]]
!!Laos Jilfor
-> '''Voiced by''': Creator/MakotoFurukawa (Japanese), Matthew David Rudd (English)

Rank 4 of the Hero Academy.
----
* BoisterousBruiser: Of all the members of his class, he's one of the brashest, rudest, and most eager to fight.
* DelinquentHair: His hair is spiky, with a wide red stripe in the center, and a small ponytail in the back.
* DeathInAllDirections: Combined with TimeStandsStill. His personal barrier, Birdesd, can trap an opponent in a localize timestop, complete with [[ColourCodedTimestop inverted colors]], and restrain even their magical power. To top it, the barrier is also filled with dozens of fireballs which further limits an opponent's movements. To Laos' horror, Sasha easily smash the barrier to smitherens with her eyes' magic.
* ElementalArmor: He can cloak himself in an armor of flames. Since it only clothes him externally, it predictably does jack-shit against the poison Sasha had infected his badge with.
* FailedASpotCheck: Didn't bother to check his school badge when Sasha seemingly let it go. Turns out she had covertly laced it with poison magic which cripples him at a critical moment and giving her the win in their battle.
* HypocriteHasAPoint: Despite also underestimating Anos and the demons, he notes that it's foolish for the purebloods to disregard Anos's strength when they fail to outperform the so-called misfit.
* PlayingWithFire: His elemental affinity and holy sword, Garewford, seems to be aligned to fire magic.
* TechnicolorFire: His fire magic is a pale blue.
