59
60	* AdaptationDyeJob: Brunette in the 2012 remake.
61	* BreakTheHaughty: While she ''is'' technically right when she tells Ximena that Marcelina was cheating on a test, the kids (already not too thrilled with her arrogance) subject her to this via ''totally shunning her''. The until then proud Maria Joaquina [[HumanizingTears was soon reduced to a sobbing wreck]].

76	* TheIngenue: Cirilo is extremely naive, leading to him being pranked by Pablo a lot.
77	%%* NiceGuy: When Maria isn't around.
78	* PerpetualPoverty: He comes from a poor family.
79	** [[spoiler: RagsToRiches: His dad wins the lotto later.]]
80	%%* TokenMinority
81	* TooDumbToLive: Sometimes. He means well, but does seem to ''severely'' lack either booksmarts or streetsmarts.
82
83	!!Pablo Guerra
84
85	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He's a serious prankster and sometimes treats his sister Marcelina real bad. OTOH, he was the first one willing to befriend the antisocial Mario.
86	%%* ThePrankster: Sometimes to KickTheDog levels.
87	%%* TokenEvilTeammate
88
89	!!Marcelina Guerra
90
91	%%* ShrinkingViolet
92	%%* SiblingYinYang: With Pablo.
93	* {{HouseWife}}: She was the only one of the girls who wanted to be strictly a housewife and mother, while the rest had career goals.
94
95	!!David Robinovitch
96
97	* AdaptationDyeJob: Brunette in the 2012 remake.
98	* InformedJudaism: His Jewish faith ''is'' mentioned sometimes (like when he and Valeria wonder if it'll be a hindrance in their married life since Valeria is raised Catholic, or when he's in a synagogue), but doesn't play a '''huge''' role in his life as a whole.
99	%%* NiceGuy
100	* ShelteredAristocrat: From a quite rich family.
101
102
103	!!Kokimoto Mishima
104
105	* AsLongAsItSoundsForeign: "Kokimoto" sounds like a surname rather than a given name, due to the "moto" as the two last syllables, but "Kokimoto" isn't even used as a name in the Japanese language. Also, if you write "Kokimoto" on Google Translate, you'll get the word "子機元". It hasn't an actual meaning; [[TranslationTrainWreck this is literally translated as "cordless telephone former", but Google translates this as "slave unit source"]].
106	** His surname, however, ''[[TruthInTelevision is]]'' a common surname. It also [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mishima_(surname) has its own article]] on Website/TheOtherWiki.
107	* CatchPhrase: "Yaaaaaa yaaaaaah!", [[AllAsiansKnowMartialArts mocking]] karate practitioners battle cries
108	%%* {{Keet}}
109	* LovableSexManiac: Was caught peeking at the girls more than once.
110	* MartialArtsHeadband: He wears one at all times.
111	%%* ThePrankster: Alongside Pablo.
112	* TokenMinority: The only japanese student in class.
113
114	!!Valeria Ferrer
115
116	%%* AttentionDeficitOohShiny
117	* BrainyBrunette: A pretty talented artist and seamstress, not to mention a good student.
118	%%* GenkiGirl
119	* GirlinessUpgrade: Although Valeria always had girly traits, she still was more tomboyish and average looking than the other girls in stark contrast to the Brazilian 2012 remake where she is shown to be more feminine and well dressed while most of her more tomboyish traits were either tuned down, outright dropped(i.e: her not being afraid of mice) or passed to Alicia.
120	* MeaningfulName: Valeria is a Latin name meaning "courageous". Valeria was easily the gutsiest of the girls- not afraid of mice or haunted houses.
121	* PerpetualPoverty: Her parents are doing okay at first, [[spoiler: but they hit rock bottom when her dad loses her job.]]. Not one of the ''poorest'' students in the class, though.
122	%%* {{Tsundere}}: A Type B.
123	%%* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Tomboy to Margarita's Girly Girl.
124
125	!!Daniel Zapata
126	* AdaptationDyeJob: Brunette in the 2012 remake.
127
128	!!Carmen Carrillo
129
130	* AlliterativeName
131	* BrainyBrunette: Had both academic intelligence and people skills.
132	%%* TheDeterminator: Unlike all other students whose families were poor (Mario, Cirilo, Jaime), Carmen did very well in school. In fact, she did much better than various other students whose families were better off (such as Pablo and Laura).
133	* PerpetualPoverty: At first, due to her parents being separated. She needed new shoes, and later a full white outfit (complete with gloves)- which La Patrulla Salvadora procures for her! Things improve, though, when her parents reconciled.
134	* TomboyishPonytail: Subverted, since as ladylike and tender as she was, she also was a good student who wanted to learn how to swim.
135
136
137	!!Mario Ayala
138
139	* AbusiveParents: His father is an okay person if often away due to his hard work. His mother is dead, and his stepmother hates him since she doesn't consider him her child.
140	* AngerBornOfWorry: Had been so badly abused by his WickedStepmother that he can't take affection from Ximena and resorts to treating her badly, which causes the poor teacher an HeroicBSOD.
141	* FriendToAllLivingThings: Animals adore him, especially his dog Rabito and his pet bunny.
142	* PerpetualPoverty: He is actually the poorest of the students. Unlike several others, his family does not seem to get better.
143
144	!!Margarita Garza
145
146	%%* TheFashionista: And how!
147	* MeaningfulName: Margarita is a Greek name meaning "pearl" and "daisy". Margarita was a fashionista who dreamt of boys giving her jewelry.
148	* NewTransferStudent: She actually comes from outside Mexico City, more exactly from Monterrey.
149	%%* ProperLady
150	* RomanticFalseLead: At first, it seems like she will steal David away from Valeria. But Margarita ends up losing interest in David, he and Valeria get back together, and Margarita moves on and stays friends with Valeria.
151	%%* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: Girly Girl to Valeria's Tomboy.
152	* TomboyishPonytail: Inverted, since as girly and fashionable as she was, she still wore her hair in a ponytail.
153	* TransferStudentUniforms: Wears her old uniform alongside boots and a jacket.
154
155	!!Laura Quiñones
156
157	%%* BigEater
158	* CatchPhrase: "How romantic!"
159	%%* GirlishPigtails
160	%%* NaiveEverygirl
161
162	!!Jorge del Salto
163
164	%%* BreakTheHaughty
165	%%* JerkAss
166	* IntelligenceEqualsIsolation: Subverted. He is shunned not because he's booksmart, but because he's a stuck-up jerk. (Besides, Daniel's grades were still better)
167	%%* SpoiledBrat
168
169	!!Bibi Smith
170
171	* CatchPhrase: "How horrible!"
172	%%* FunnyForeigner
173	* TomboyishPonytail: Played straight if she is a tomboy. Not much is known about her, but she does not seem particularly girly.
174
175	!!Adrian Garcia
176
177	* CloudCuckooLander: Not in the original, though- did not get anywhere near enough character development for that to be determined. He is estabilished as a very imaginative boy in the remake.
178	* TheGenericGuy: Barely recalled by the fans, except for being a chubby boy with {{Sleepyhead}} traits. But at least he got a name!!
179
180	!!Alicia Guzmán
181
182	* BrainyBrunette: Not a textbook example, but she had common sense, was disciplined and mature, and was at the very least a decent student.
183	* CompositeCharacter: Her Brazilian 2012 counterpart shares some traits with the original Valeria, with them being both brave tomboys who wear pants the most out of the girls.
184	* NeverBareheaded: In the Brazilian 2012 version, she always wears a blue cap, which is made strangely big in the Animated Adaptation.
185	* TomboynessUpgrade: The Brazilian 2012 version turns her into a skater girl who likes to play football and who wears more tomboyish clothes compared to her Mexican original counterpart.
186	!!Clementina Sánchez
187
188	%%* [[spoiler: GirlInTheTower: Sort-of, as her overprotective caretakers keep her locked inside their home while her parents were in the hospital due to an accident.]]
