11	-->''"I'm glad you're here for me, [=RyuZU=]."''
12
13	A machine maniac who resides in the Kyoto gear.
14	----
15	* AmbiguouslyHuman: It's never made clear in the anime whether he's really a human kid who somehow [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower pushed his sense of hearing to ridiculous extremes]], if he's a relative or reincarnation of the mysterious clocksmith [[CrystalDragonJesus "Y"]] -- or actually Y himself, still around somehow -- or if he's some kind of god. One thing is clear -- he's certainly not a [[{{Muggles}} Muggle]].
16	* BookDumb: Has little interest in his school studies (aside from keeping his attendance record spotless). However he can build a robot from nothing but spare parts and fixed multiple machines deemed impossible just by listening for the parts that weren't working.
17	* BrilliantButLazy: He is definitely this. He has the unique ability to [[SuperSenses hear the very gears that make up Ryuzu and their planet]], but is content with wasting his time wearing headphones (though given his SuperSenses, it's probably to keep him from constantly hearing gears) and lavishing in Ryuzu's attention.
18	* CripplingOverspecialization: While his [[SuperSenses excellent sense of hearing]] allows him to accurately pinpoint problems and [[LudicrousPrecision count down the total number of gears to the finest detail]], it makes him far more sensitive to extremely loud noises than an average human. This causes him to feel dizziness and discomfort when inside mechanical structures and riding cylinder trains, to the point that he sometimes needs [=RyuZU=] as a stabilizer to balance out the interfering noises. There's a reason why he wears those noise-cancelling headphones to begin with, and even these don't work in certain situations.
19	* CutenessProximity: It's hard to get him to stop harping on about [=AnchoR=].
20	* DisguisedInDrag: Dons a long-haired wig and skirt when going out and about after the Akihabara broadcast.
21	* GeniusDitz: Naoto can build one clockwork robot by hand, and repair another one in three hours that Clockwork Masters never could, but seems to have zero interest in anything that is not related to something with gears. To the point he didn't recognize Marie, despite her having been on the cover of a magazine he always buys.
22	* HeadphonesEqualIsolation: PlayedWith. While his headphones do kinda keep him from the rest of the world, it's also to keep him from having to constantly listen to the sounds of clockwork.
23	* LudicrousPrecision: When asked how many gears and/or mechanical defects he can [[SuperSenses hear]], he tends to report an exact number, even if there are billions of them, as he did with the gears that make up [[RobotGirl [=RyuZU=]]]. It's often noted that [[AmbiguouslyHuman a normal human]] could never differentiate that many different sounds even if they ''could'' hear them all.
24	* MistakenForGay: When Naoto wanted to inspect Halter's cyborg body and didn't express any overt sexual desire towards her, [=RyuZU=] suspected him to be gay, to which he replied that his interest in Halter's powerful and highly sophisticated cyborg body is technical and not ([[{{robosexual}} robo-]])sexual.
25	* NonActionGuy: Justified, as he's more interested in fixing stuff and seeing how machines work. Fortunately his friends and allies can do the heavy lifting for him during fights.
26	* OlderThanTheyLook: Despite what his stature suggests, he's a high school freshman.
27	** Actually Invoked by the Army when a bounty was placed on him. They made him out to be even ''older'' since a student causing them so much trouble would be humiliating.
28	* {{Otaku}}: For machines.
29	* {{Robosexual}}: It is made quite clearly in Chapter 5 that he has no interest in human women, such as Marie. In fact, after Ryuzu makes sure TimeStandsStill, he asks her to marry him and becomes excited at finding out that Ryuzu has a "little sister" so they could form a family unit together.
30	* SkewedPriorities: He is motivated to stop the purge on Kyoto so he could save [=AnchoR=], to Marie's annoyance.
31	* SuperSenses: Has Super Hearing, not only is he able to hear a malfunction from far distances, he is even able to pinpoint where it is. He usually wears noise-canceling headphones to block most of it out.
32	* TookALevelInBadass: In Chapter 2, when he went out of his way to get some creeps to stop harassing [=RyuZU=]. Even he was shocked at what he was doing.
33	* {{Tsundere}}: He often argues with Marie but he still cares for her.

40	[[caption-width-right:249:[[labelnote:Dual Time Mode]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/imagine_time.png[[/labelnote]]]]
41	-->''"You are a pervert, Master Naoto."''
42
43	An automaton left behind by "Y". The Unit 1 of the "Initial-Y series".
44	----
45	* AbsurdlySharpBlade: Her scythes are sharp enough to cut through even the toughest metal alloys, and she has no problem reducing state-of-the-art military automata to heaps of scrap metal in seconds.
46	* ActionGirl: Has lots of combat abilities, and utilizes them throughout the series.
47	* BigDamnHeroes: Stops Hirayama from destroying [=AnchoR=].
48	* ClingyJealousGirl: Mostly played for laughs. She gets upset when he gawks at all the machinery after they head to the 24th floor, and wonders if anything with gears gets him this excited. She then states that she's going to strip naked so as to prevent him from looking at other stuff with gears, though he stops her before she can actually do it.
49	* ComplimentBackfire: She seems to be the master at this. She later reveals it is because she was never installed with a Audio Filter.
50	* DeathIsCheap: While [=RyuZU=] can die, being an automaton by nature means that her death isn't really permanent, even after pulling off a HeroicSacrifice to give Naoto and Marie her Imaginary Gear needed to stop the purge of Kyoto. So just as long as the Imaginary Gear itself isn't destroyed, she can be brought back to life by a few quick repairs.
51	* ElegantGothicLolita: She wears a dark purple old-fashioned-like dress that is laced with frills and ribbons. When she activates her Dual Time Mode, said dress transforms into a {{Stripperific}} white wedding dress.
52	* GratuitousEnglish: Her supreme command, "Your Slave".
53	* {{Hammerspace}}: Her body is composed of 4,207,600,008,643 gears (four trillion in layman's terms), which itself is an insane number of gears in a small space to begin with, but her body is still spacious enough to fit two large retractable scythes in her.
54	* HappinessInSlavery: She believes she exists solely to serve the one she sees as her master.
55	* LapPillow: Offers her lap to Naoto as a pillow for him to sleep. He was hesitant at first but accepts and falls asleep. Only to be cut short due to a strong earthquake.
56	* LecherousLicking: Sucks Naoto's finger when registering him as her master.
57	* LuminescentBlush: Is visibly embarrassed when Naoto states that she looks really good in casual clothing.
58	* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: She was constructed one millennium prior to the start of the series by the same super-genius clocksmith who constructed the Clockwork Planet itself.
59	* RidiculouslyHumanRobot: Very human-looking on the outside, but actually a superweapon clockwork automaton underneath.
60	* SinisterScythe: Has two [[TrouserSpace under her dress]] on the end of clockwork arms. They come out whenever anyone threatens [[DeclarationOfProtection Naoto]].
61	* SmugSuper: Comes across as this due to her audio filter. (Or lack there of)
62	* TimeStandsStill: She can do this with her Imaginary Gear. She's the '''weakest''' of all her sisters.
63	* {{Tsundere}}: She cares for Naoto but uses harsh words towards him. While she does care for Marie, she often gets into arguments with her.
64	* UndyingLoyalty: To Naoto. As far as she's concerned, she exists solely for him and everything else in the world is trash.
65	** Takes the trope to its literal extreme when the gear maintaining her life is necessary to protect him. She kills herself without hesitation. She gets better, being a repairable robot ad all, but how quickly she does it is almost terrifying.
66	* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: God help the poor soul that even talks about doing anything that is even remotely harmful to Naoto's well-being within her hearing range.

69	[[folder:Marie Bell Breguet]]
70	!!Marie Bell Breguet
71	!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SaoriOnishi (Japanese), Creator/SkylerMcIntosh (English)
72	[[quoteright:235:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/wikia_visualization_mainclockworkplanet463_20.png]]
73
74	The youngest president of the Breguet company and a first-class clock technician.
75	----
76	* ACupAngst: Doesn't appreciate it when Vainney points out that she has an underdeveloped chest.
77	* ClarkKenting:
78	** Hers is so bad it makes Clark Kent's glasses disguise a step up. When she fakes her death and becomes an OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent, she doesn't change her appearance in any way and doesn't hide her prodigy status (which clearly draws a lot of attention). Even one of the students pointed out she looks just like her. The only thing she changes is her name.
79	** Her only real thing holding the disguise together is everyone's assumption that she's dead. (For the most part, it does seem to be effective and she may also be relying on the fact no one would suspect her to do this.)
80	* CuteLittleFangs: Occasionally seen sporting one, particularly when she's embarrassed.
81	* TheDeterminator: She will do whatever she can to do what's right.
82	* GoingCommando: Lampshaded by Vainney to her embarrassment, when she gets up from bed to talk to him while wearing nothing but her jacket.
83	* GoodIsNotSoft: She is not above threatening the person she is interrogating with death or even the idea of killing the person's family to get them to talk. She would never do it but she puts on a very convincing act.
84	* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Has the hair part going for her - the "heart" part... [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold depends on her mood.]]
85	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She often fights with both Ryuzu and Naoto but she does care for them, more so with Naoto. She would never want to see her friends or people she cares about in danger. A very notable example was in episode 6 when she saw both Naoto and Ryuzu seemingly fall to their deaths, she tries to save them but was halted away to safety by Vainney. She then becomes depressed, thinking that she had lost her friends, especially Naoto. When she sees that Ryuzu and Naoto have survived, she kicks Naoto in the face, grabs him and warns him to not make her worried sick about his well-being.
86	* ModestyShorts: She wears a pair of dark blue shorts underneath her surprisingly short skirt. Given that she moves around a lot when fighting and repairing stuff, it's very optimal for preserving her dignity while on duty.
87	* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Marie exposing the purge of Tokyo and causing people to lose faith in the government only made the Army step up their plans.
88	* NonIdleRich: She is the daughter to one of the richest families in the world, and is also the youngest member of the Guild. She is even willing to give it all up without a moment's hesitation to do what is right.
89	* {{Ojou}}: She's president of the Breguet company at ''13 years old''.
90	* OjouRinglets: [[{{Ojou}} She]] has these, of course.
91	* PintSizedPowerhouse: She's the shortest member of the group, and is strong enough to take down ordinary adult human soldiers with ease.
92	* ProperLady: Subverted. Despite her status as president of the Breguet company, she can be one sharp-tongued girl outside of business matters.
93	* SweetTooth: She constantly chews on sweets. It gets more obvious why that is when she's doing repair work: after fixing [=RyuZU=] at an astounding pace, she immediately gets an energy crash which she craves for chocolate to cure.
94	* {{Tsundere}}: Type 1. She often bickers with Naoto and has even hit him multiple times, but she still cares for him. Even though she gets into disputes with Ryuzu, she still cares for her. Although unlike with Naoto, she has never hit Ryuzu (not because she doesn't want to, but because Ryuzu would kill her).

98	!!Vainney Halter
99	!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KenichiroMatsuda (Japanese), Creator/ChristopherSabat (English)
100	[[quoteright:197:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/wikia_visualization_mainclockworkplanet463_5.png]]
101	Marie's bodyguard.
102	----
103	* BrokenPedestal: Discussed by Halter towards Marie, who states that if a member of the Guild saw her acting like a spoiled princess (which she does in private) they would faint.
104	* CoolShades: He wears a pair of sunglasses, which makes him more intimidating and badass up close.
105	* {{Cyborg}}: His body has been augmented with the latest clockwork tech from the Breguet Corporation, which allows him to go toe-to-toe with military automata that would normally pulverize an ordinary human.
106	* NoSell: While Halter isn't completely invincible, his cyborg body makes him tough enough to tank blows from regular humans without even flinching. He even lets Marie use his body as a punching bag to vent out her anger and frustration since he can't really be hurt by her.
107	* OnlySaneMan: Frequently comes off as this, notably when compared to [[{{Robosexual}} Naoto]] [[GeniusDitz Miura]], [[ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend Ryuzu]], and [[SpoiledBrat Marie]].
108	* PhenotypeStereotype: Subverted; Halter is American and was a former member of the US Army but doesn't have blonde hair and blue eyes. It helps that he's a cyborg that isn't set to one appearance too.
109	* RuggedScar: He has a visible scar on the right side of his face. It's either a battle wound or the result of his augmentation into a cyborg.
110	* SuperPrototype: Halter's cyborg body is the eighth generation model by the Breguet Corporation, which is actually two generations ahead of the current generation of clockwork tech and never really distributed or mass-produced anywhere else. He's the model's first and only user, and naturally, gives him an edge against even up-to-date current gen models.
111	* SuperStrength: Being a cyborg, he's able to smash through a lot of clockwork battlebots with ease.
112	* TeamDad: Being the oldest member of the group appearance-wise (barring [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld [=RyuZU=]]]) and the only adult, he comes off as this towards both Marie and Naoto outside of his obligation as a bodyguard, and worries about their safety during the most dangerous situations.

139
140	The fourth in the Initial-Y series automata, and the youngest sister to [=RyuZU=].
141	----
142	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Someone forced a mask on her that makes her act far more violent than she actually is. Her true personality is much more docile and shy.
143	* CoolShades: Ryuzu notes that she didn't always have these. Destroying them frees Anchor from the [[BigBad Big Bad's]] control.
144	* HyperspaceArsenal: She can cut open some kind of hole in reality to withdraw a [[BigFancySword really big sword]], a [[WaveMotionGun battleship-grade resonance cannon]], [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and]] at least one [[InstantArmor alternate outfit.]]
145	* HypnoTrinket: The CoolShades on her face put her under the control of the BigBad. When they are destroyed, she stops being hostile and [[HeelFaceTurn becomes Naoto's second servant automaton.]]
146	* LightningBruiser: Is faster, stronger, and more durable than Ryuzu, able to outpace the older unit even when TimeStandsStill. After her HeelFaceTurn, she could easily destroy any enemy in Naoto's way, but he [[BerserkButton absolutely]] [[HoldingBackThePhlebotinum won't let her do that]] because he doesn't want to traumatize a little girl.
147	* PersonOfMassDestruction: She is called the [[RedBaron "one who annihilates"]] for a reason. However, she's still a little girl mentally, so she's [[TheWoobie traumatized]] by the thing she was purpose-built to do.
148	* RavenHairIvorySkin
149	* RedBaron: "One who annihilates". A fitting title for a [[GlacierWaif pint-sized]] PersonOfMassDestruction.
150	* RoboSpeak: As an [[RobotGirl automaton]], it's kind of expected, but her constant use of this is one of the signs that she's BrainwashedAndCrazy. She stops doing this for the most part when her HypnoTrinket is removed.
151	* SpikeBallsOfDoom: Her main form of attack while brainwashed is to enlarge the ball of gears hanging around her neck, [[SpectacularSpinning set it spinning at high speeds]], and then teleport it on top of anything she needs to [[SphereOfDestruction grind out of existence.]]
152	* ThirdPersonPerson: Refers to herself by name.
153	* ThreeLawsCompliant: She cannot target humans for an attack. [[spoiler: Naoto [[ExploitedTrope exploits]] this by having Ryuzu stand in front of him -- although Ryuzu used [[UnwittingPawn Marie]] for this purpose instead to avoid risking her master's life -- and then dodge when Anchor attacks, hitting Anchor with a paralyzing LogicBomb until the HypnoTrinket on her face could be destroyed.]] Even after she joins Naoto, she still has to follow any order given to her, even if it's not from him.
154	* TokenMiniMoe: After returning back to normal and Naoto becoming her master. Naoto heavily dotes on her as his "daughter".

170	The third in the Initial-Y series automata, and an even younger sister of [=RyuZU=]
171	----
172	* AmusingInjuries: Averted with her defeat 200 years prior to the series.
173	** Played straight with her appearances in the manga and light novel, falling off buildings and being hit by a truck immediately after finding Ryuzu.
174	* ButtMonkey: In every appearance she's in, she suffers from some form of abuse.
175	* CuteClumsyGirl: In designing her, Y took several precautions, most notably designing TemP without a combat algorithm. This forces her to do all of her calculations herself, and leads to her being unable to utilize her abilities to the fullest. TemP herself lampshades this, stating that a clumsy girl is cute.
176	** Becomes a Tearjerker when it is revealed this is the true reason behind why Ryuzu destroyed her and why TemP continues to try to prove herself to her eldest sister.
177	* DespairEventHorizon: Ryuzu and Anchor defeat her in combat while the former calls Temp defective. She calls for her master Omega to defend her, only for him to immediately agree with Ryuzu, citing that she is a failure and he has no need for her. Temp is so broken that when Ryuzu issues a DeadlyEuphemism and raises her scythes to kill her, she makes no move to escape or fight back, kneeling on the ground to await her fate. It's only due to Anchor's protection that she doesn't get reduced to scrap.
178	* DullEyesOfUnhappiness: Gains these where Omega, having seen enough, decides to abandon ownership of her.
179	* GaleForceSound: Her signature ability is control over phonons and resonance. This is taken to the logical extreme as she is able to affect wavelengths of light in addition to sound, allowing her to turn invisible.
180	* GenkiGirl: She is the most energetic of the Initial Y automata seen so far.
181	* LargeHam: She actually spends hours practicing things like her introduction.
182	* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: TemP begins her appearance in the manga by seemingly talking to the reader, but a shot pans out to show she's talking to a stone elephant instead.
183	* RedBaron: Third of the Initial Y, the Fluttering Butterfly.
184	* TakeThatKiss: She kisses Naoto by the end of the manga and the fourth light novel volume. It's directed towards Ryuzu, who is livid at the action to the point of declaring she would kill Temp, [[MurderSuicide then Naoto, then herself]].

200	The person who seems to firmly believe that the Clockwork Planet is not what it appears to be.
201	----
202	* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: His death scene was changed in the anime [[spoiler: to him dying when the Yatsukahagi explodes]] instead of [[spoiler: being [[BoomHeadshot killed by a sniper]] working for Omega]].
203	* StrawNihilist: His burning hatred of Y is a result of his belief that he has forced humanity to outlive their destined limits, causing them to stagnate. He maintains that the Clockwork Planet is merely a fantasy created by a god in human form, and has no shortage of speeches on both subjects. After he meets Naoto and becomes convinced that he is Y in disguise, he becomes determined to show Y "the limits of us ordinary people".

212	* AdaptedOut: His introduction was cut from the anime.
213	* ItAmusedMe: His reason for subjugating Anchor and becoming Temp's master. Ryuzu absolutely detests him for this, and wishes to kill him for playing with her sisters in that way.
214	* ManBehindTheMan: While Gennai is set up as the main antagonist, Omega's entrance reveals that he's been the one behind the scenario the entire time.
215	* NoNameGiven: "Omega" is merely a name he made up to hide his true identity.
216	* WalkingSpoiler: Isn't introduced until Gennai's death, which reveals nearly all the events of the first three novels to have been the products of his machinations.
217	* XanatosGambit: Had an answer to every possible ending to his plot. If Gennai's coup had been a success, then Omega would have gained influence as a supporter, and obtained access to the fallen Capital's tower's technology, which he could use to start a war. If it failed, as it did, then he could sell anti-electromagnetic weapons to various eager countries.

220	[[folder:Y]]
221	!!Y
222
223	The mysterious savior who reconstructed the entire Earth out of gears, and the creator of the Initial-Y series automata.
224	----
225	* CrazyEnoughToWork: His idea to rebuild an entire dying planet using nothing but clockwork gears is a pretty crazy one in itself, but he somehow managed to pull it off in the end and gave humanity another chance to thrive once more. It's gotten to the point where his ridiculous feat has been acknowledge and even [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] in-universe a couple of times.
226	--> '''Naoto:''' ''Well'' - getting the idea to try to make an entire planet function with gears is pretty out there itself, don't you think?
227	* CrystalDragonJesus: In the years that followed since his reconstruction, Y has been praised and even worshiped as humanity's greatest savior to the point that even after a millennium has passed, he is still fondly remembered in history books.
228	* OneLetterName: His true name is unknown, and is only ever referred to as just "Y".
229	* PosthumousCharacter: He's already (presumed) dead by the time the main story starts since one-thousand years have passed since his reconstruction. The only direct pieces of his legacy that are left behind are his Initial-Y series automata like [=RyuZU=] and [=AnchoR=].
230	* ScrewDestiny: His primary motivation for wanting to reconstruct the Earth, as revealed in the prologue of the second novel. He knows full well that the universe, and by extension, the Earth, will eventually succumb to an inevitable heat death, so he decided to challenge that fate as well as current scientific consensus by turning all of it on its head, and converting the base mechanism of the universe into a series of moving parts.
