| 11 | -> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/ErikoMatsui (Japanese) |
| 12 | |
| 13 | A quiet and aloof girl who runs a small café named Lion House in Shinjuku in place of her grandmother, who returned to the countryside temporarily to take care of a relative. The blonde streaks in her hair are natural, but have caused her peers to label her as a delinquent. To that effect, she rarely speaks to anyone there other than her friends Miharu, Mao, and Naomi. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | She has no particular hobbies to speak of, though she does enjoy shopping and reading shoujo manga. Black coffee is a favorite of hers, though she dislikes anything either too bitter or too sweet. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | One day while returning home with Naomi, she dies while shielding Naomi from an explosion, becoming a participant in Divine Selection in the process. Her memory is somewhat fuzzy however, possibly due the shock of being caught up in the explosion, leading her to participate while not knowing both her cause of death and her regret. |
| 18 | ---- |
| 19 | * ACupAngst: Does not appreciate being reminded of that all of her friends, underclassman included, are bigger than her in that department. |
| 20 | * ActionSurvivor: Though reluctant at first, she is determined to eliminate the other participants aside from Miharu to ensure that they both live. |
| 21 | * AmbiguouslyGay: Shows no interest in love for the majority of the story [[spoiler: but she has a lot of ShipTease with Miharu, occasionally commenting on how pretty or cute she is when they are alone together. She also blushed profusely and felt visibly flustered when Miharu sincerely confesses her feelings for her before the 8th Week's election.]] [[spoiler: Ambiguity is dropped when the True Ending has her reciprocating Miharu's feelings for her during the night of the fireworks.]] |
| 22 | * AmnesiacHero: Prior to the events of Divine Selection, she experiences some degree of memory loss after "recovering" from her death |
| 23 | * AnimalMotifs: Lions. Her surname, Shishimai, can be as "Lion Dance", she lives and works in a cafe called Lion House, and she's a Leo. |
| 24 | * BookDumb: Her test scores at school are average at best and she finds it difficult to study for long periods of time, as shown in her study session with Naomi. |
| 25 | * BreakTheCutie: She breaks down in tears during [[spoiler: Naomi's funeral and confines herself to her room, avoiding all social contact for a week]]. |
| 26 | * ButNotTooForeign: [[spoiler: Primarily Japanese but has a tiny bit of British ancestry on her Grandmother's side]] |
| 27 | * ChildhoodFriends: [[spoiler: She first met Miharu in Shinjuku Park when they were children before Miharu's family had to move due to a car accident ruining their reputation. Unfortunately, Rinka's amnesia had caused her to forget this encounter.]] |
| 28 | * ColorMotif: Her favourite colour is red, as well as her jacket, ribbon and eyes. |
| 29 | * ConscienceMakesYouGoBack: Trying to ignore a collapsed Sonya will result in Rinka helping her up anyway |
| 30 | * CoolBigSis: Acts as one to [[spoiler: Sonya and Yu]]. |
| 31 | * DeadpanSnarker: On occasion. |
| 32 | * DespairEventHorizon: |
| 33 | ** Falls into this after [[spoiler: Yu infiltrates her school and blows up a classroom, killing Naomi in the process]]. After this she avoids all social contact with her friends and stays in bed for several days, only getting up to eat. |
| 34 | * FaceOfAThug: The natural blonde streaks in her hair have caused her classmates to see her as a delinquent and ignore her as a result. Sofiya even stated that Rinka looked scary despite her kind personality. |
| 35 | * HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Has golden streaks in her hair and is one of the nicest characters in the story. |
| 36 | ** Sofiya thanks her for buying her an expensive full course dinner when she was lying on the street and starving. |
| 37 | ** [[spoiler: Even acknowledges this after rejecting Scale's offer for a truce]]: |
| 38 | -->'''Rinka:''' "I know I'm a big softie. It's in my blood, after all..." |
| 39 | * {{Foil}}: Has one in the form of [[spoiler: Yu. Both suffer from amnesia upon being revived in the Divine Selection, both of them were raised primarily by people who were not their parents, both are represented by Fire elemental Zodiac signs, both of them died in the same terrorist attack at the start of the game, and they have the same regret. The difference is that Rinka regrets having her daily routine/normal life taken away from her by her early death, while Yu regrets never having a normal life of his own due to his child soldier background.]] |
| 40 | * IfItsYouItsOkay: [[spoiler: If Rinka accepts Miharu's confession before the 11th Election, she states that she although she loves her too, she is unsure whether or not she is IN love with her. Thus, Rinka pursues this relationship to discover this herself.]] |
| 41 | * InnocentlyInsensitive: Due to her obliviousness to Miharu's blatently obvious crush on her, she's occasionally this towards Miharu. Such as in their visit to Stardust Kingdom in the first week. |
| 42 | * KindheartedCatLover: Takes good care of Lethe. |
| 43 | * {{Leitmotif}}: "Rinka" is hers. |
| 44 | * LockedIntoStrangeness: The gold in her hair might be the result of her [[spoiler: being born outside of fate during a previous Divine Selection, or it might be because she's a relative of Parca.]] It's left ambiguous. |
| 45 | * LuminescentBlush: Becomes incredibly flustered when [[spoiler: Miharu confesses her feelings to her before the 8th Election. Also happens quite frequently when Miharu teases her on their dates together.]] |
| 46 | * ObliviousToLove: She is unaware that Miharu has feelings for her [[spoiler: and only realises this when Miharu sincerely confesses to her in Shiba Park before the 8th Week's election.]] Miharu even mentions this once. |
| 47 | -->'''Miharu:''' "Urgh...You're as dense as a black hole..." |
| 48 | * OfficialCouple: With [[spoiler: Miharu in the True Ending or if you accept her confession before the 11th Election]] |
| 49 | * RealityWarper: Any ending where [[spoiler: she triumphs over Parca has her become this, albeit one who only has the power to perform one miracle.]] |
| 50 | * TakingTheBullet: Very early on, she protects Naomi with her body from an explosion on the train they were on. |
| 51 | * TheProtagonist: Zigzagged as we see the story from several other characters' points of view throughout the game such as Miharu and Federico. |
| 52 | * TechnicolorEyes: Sticking with her associated color, she has red eyes. |
| 53 | * TokenGoodTeammate: [[spoiler: At least, in the context of the alliance of her, Odette, and Alan.]] |

| 67 | [[quoteright:278:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/anewmiharu.png]] |
| 68 | |
| 69 | -> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/YuriKomagata (Japanese) |
| 70 | |
| 71 | A student at Amecha Girls’ University High School, and one of Rinka’s classmates. As she is beautiful and has brains to match, others consider her difficult to approach, which results in her being avoided much like Rinka. She works part-time at a certain restaurant, but she’s yet to ask Rinka and Mao to come along at some point. |
| 72 | |
| 73 | While typically level-headed, she sometimes speaks her mind without hesitation, leading to some harsh takes. Her circumstances while growing up seem to be somewhat complicated, but not even Rinka knows much about it. |
| 74 | |
| 75 | Her feelings for Rinka go beyond simple friendship, but Rinka herself seems to be completely clueless about this. |
| 76 | ---- |
| 77 | * AlliterativeName: '''M'''iharu '''M'''ishima [[spoiler: Averted during the 4th Election when her name card is revealed to be Miharu Hebinata.]] |
| 78 | * AnimalMotifs: Snakes. Due to her association with Ophiuchus/Serpentarius. [[spoiler: Also because the surname she recognizes as her own, Hebinata, contains the word for snake (hebi).]] |
| 79 | * BrokenAce: The smartest girl at her school with the looks to match too. She understands the rules of Divine Selection very well and reluctantly cooperates with other participants to eliminate others and protect Rinka. [[spoiler: Despite her good looks and kind personality, she feels genuinely weak inside and has family issues. This eventually led to her committing suicide and becoming part of Divine Selection. Odette knew this side of her from when they were first introduced.]] |
| 80 | * ColorMotif: Blue. Even her bow/tie thing on her school uniform is blue when everyone else seems to have red. |
| 81 | * ClingyJealousGirl: Feels notably jealous whenever Rinka spends time with Naomi. |
| 82 | * DrivenToSuicide: Her cause of death is suicide. [[spoiler: She slit her wrists after realising that her jealousy of Naomi's closeness with Rinka is a similar trait carried by her mother whom she loathes.]] |
| 83 | --> [[spoiler: '''Miharu:''' The realization that I had been denying my lineage through my hatred made me want to die.]] |
| 84 | * DeadpanSnarker: She has quite the sharp tongue on her, although it only really is noticeable when she's annoyed. |
| 85 | * EmbarrassedByAChild: Not directly, but when Sonya orders the special pancake at the Fairy Dream maid cafe, Miharu is forced to recite a spell and dance in front of her. |
| 86 | * EveryoneCanSeeIt: Mao and Naomi know that Miharu has feelings for Rinka. [[spoiler: Participants such as Odette, Scale and even Federico were able to deduce this too]]. Rinka is the only one who does not pick up on it. |
| 87 | * ForeShadowing: [[spoiler: If Rinka accepts Miharu's confession before the 11th Election, Miharu will state:]] |
| 88 | --> [[spoiler: '''Miharu:''' I'm so happy I could die]] |
| 89 | ** [[spoiler: Unfortunately, accepting her confession will leave Miharu with no regrets and she will ultimately sacrifice herself in the upcoming election to let Rinka win Divine Selection and live.]] |
| 90 | * GreenEyedMonster: Has a strong jealous streak when Rinka's involved. |
| 91 | * HighClassGloves: Always seen wearing long white gloves whenever she wears short sleeved tops. [[spoiler: Revealed later on that she wears them to hide her scars from previous self-harming attempts in her past.]] |
| 92 | * HumblePie: Felt visibly embarrassed when she had to perform a magic spell on Sonya's pancake while twirling in a maid outfit. |
| 93 | --> '''Miharu:''' I need to do this...in front of Rinka?? Sorry...but I'm going to curse you for the rest of my life now. |
| 94 | * {{Irony}}: If you pursue the True Ending, Miharu will taunt [[spoiler:Parca]] by saying that: |
| 95 | --> '''Miharu:''' Not even you could fish up a world [[spoiler:where I say yes to that (Electing Rinka)]] |
| 96 | ** [[spoiler: Ironically, Bad Ending 2 has Miharu elect Rinka after being manipulated by Scale]] |
| 97 | * {{Leitmotif}}: "Miharu" serves as hers. |
| 98 | * LipstickLesbian: She is romantically interested in Rinka and is considered to be very attractive by both Federico and Rinka. |
| 99 | * LoveConfession: She tells Rinka that she loves her several times in the story, but Rinka assumes that Miharu means it in a friendly way. [[spoiler: Later on, Miharu sincerely confesses to her in Shiba Park before the 8th Week's election]] which [[spoiler: Rinka eventually reciprocates during the fireworks display in the True End]] |
| 100 | --> [[spoiler: '''Miharu:''' I love how kind you are and how much of a busybody you can be. I love how intense you can be, as well as how reckless. I love absolutely everything about you, Rinka.]] |
| 101 | * KillTheOnesYouLove: If Rinka does not [[spoiler:pick up the phone call from Miharu which leads to her confession, Scale will manipulate Miharu at her lowest moment and trick her into eliminating Rinka under the pretense of "making Rinka hers forever"]] |
| 102 | --> [[spoiler: '''Scale:''' Eliminate her. Take control of her fate. That's the same as making her yours.]] |
| 103 | * OneHeadTaller: Than Rinka. |
| 104 | * RealNameAsAnAlias: [[spoiler: Subverted. While "Miharu Mishima" is her real name, her internal loathing for her mother after her parents' divorce has prevented her from accepting Mishima as her new last name. Therefore, she still acknowledges "Hebinata" as her real name instead, taken from her father and is thus shown on her Name Card]] |
| 105 | * ReluctantFanserviceGirl: Has a part time job working in a maid cafe, and maintains a rather low opinion of the place and the clientele. |
| 106 | * SingleTargetSexuality: Does not show romantic interest to any character other than Rinka. |
| 107 | * WesternZodiac: Not one of the traditional twelve signs, but the thirteenth sign that's popular over in Japan, Ophiuchus/Serpentarius. |
| 108 | * {{Yandere}}: Very much willing to kill for Rinka. She openly admits that she would have done everything in her power to win Divine Selection had Rinka not been a participant. [[spoiler: She kills Rinka in one ending when she doesn't pick up the phone after she'd worked up the nerve to confess.]] |

| 120 | -> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/HiroshiKoide (Japanese) |
| 121 | |
| 122 | The Italian Stallion. |
| 123 | |
| 124 | Seemingly a member of the mafia until he stirred up a certain incident, resulting in his death and participation in Divine Selection. Develops something of a friendly rivalry with Odette, another participant, and they agree to help each other until they’re the final two left. |
| 125 | |
| 126 | Incredibly proud of his homeland, and convinced that no other country boasts food better than Italy. This leads to plenty of disputes with Odette. His main priorities when it comes to women are their appearance and chest size. |
| 127 | |
| 128 | While rather happy go lucky most of the time, he’s known to display his mafioso side when the circumstances call for it. |
| 129 | ---- |
| 130 | * CasanovaWannabe: |
| 131 | ** Openly flirts with Miharu whenever they are together. His attempts are unsuccessful though as her interests lie elsewhere. |
| 132 | ** [[spoiler: Later on, we find out that Federico had experienced several failures in his life in both school and work which ultimately led to him developing a new regret: Success]] |
| 133 | * DarkHorseVictory [[spoiler: Manages to win Divine Selection, overcoming top contenders such as Alan, Scale, and Miharu, in Bad End 2.]] |
| 134 | * FaceDeathWithDignity: [[spoiler: After being able to successfully collect all of Alan's cards before the 10th Election, he happily accepts his election by Miharu as he feels that he was still successful in besting the man who had always looked down on him.]] |
| 135 | * {{Leitmotif}}: "Villain" often plays whenever he appears or is being discussed. |
| 136 | * SharpDressedMan: Never seen without his trademark suit. Rinka comments that he looks like a male model. |
| 137 | * ShipperOnDeck: |
| 138 | ** Realises that Miharu is in love with Rinka during the 10th Election and was willing to offer her advice had he realised sooner. |
| 139 | ** [[spoiler: Prays that Rinka and Miharu find happiness mere moments before Miharu finishes electing him in the 10th Election]] |
| 140 | * ShipTease: With Odette |
| 141 | * SmarterThanYouLook: |
| 142 | ** [[spoiler: Though his face makes him look like a typical thug, he was able to gather important information on Ro Chanho (despite the fact that Odette figured everything out first).]] |
| 143 | ** [[spoiler: Went to India for a week before the 10th Election and was able to deduce Alan's Cause of Death and Regret with indirect help from both Miharu and Rinka.]] |
| 144 | * StrongGirlSmartGuy: Though Odette is clearly stronger and smarter than he is, he is still more than capable of gathering intel on people by himself. |
| 145 | * SurvivorGuilt: Experiences this during [[spoiler: the 8th Election where he elects Odette. Not only does he realise that Odette had originally given her life to try and protect him, she already had all 3 of his cards and could have elected him but opted not to]] |
| 146 | * TallDarkAndSnarky: Nearly two meters tall, looks like a model, and can snark with the best of them. |
| 147 | * WesternZodiac: Capricorn. It's the basis for his code name when working with Odette. |

| 171 | * DarkAndTroubledPast |

| 173 | * FourIsDeath: [[spoiler:The only character to cause another participant's entry into the game through murder, and did that via suicide bomb. Asks Rinka to elect him because he fears his combat abilities. When she declines, and he regains his memories, he forces the issue by murdering one of her friends.]] |
| 174 | * HappilyAdopted: He was once homeless but was taken in by Shigetsugu during Divine Selection and is determined to keep him alive due to the kindness he had shown him. |

| 309 | * EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: His regret is that he never lived to [[spoiler:photograph an athlete friend of his win a gold medal in the Olympics, due to said friend dying years before.]] |
| 310 | ** [[spoiler: He even tries to form an alliance with Rinka by providing a fake story about his past so that he can convince her that he is trustworthy so that he can betray both her and Miharu in the upcoming election]] |
| 311 | * ForGreatJustice: His reason for wanting to eliminate Alan and Yu is because he considers them to be evil for willingly putting non-participants in harm's way during Divine Selection. [[spoiler: Subverted when it is revealed that he was intending to eliminate everyone so that he could survive.]] |
| 312 | * {{Paparazzi}}: His job before his death and pursued this career to act as a social justice warrior to unveil the truth to the world. [[spoiler: Averted when it is shown that he really pursued this career for money and a sedentary lifestyle]] |

| 314 | * SmugSnake: [[spoiler: While he's directly responsible for two bad endings, through either kidnapping Rinka's grandmother or manipulating Miharu into eliminating Rinka, neither plan saves him from being eliminated by Alan.]] |

However, she didn't show any fear in this situation, causing Odette to take pity on her and allow her to enjoy her last few moments in Japan before the upcoming election]] |
| 344 | * GoOutWithASmile: [[spoiler: When Miharu elects her in the 4th Election, she is last seen smiling...and crying]] |

| 346 | * {{Otaku}}: She is very interested in Japanese Culture and even learned the language so that she would be able to visit Japan one day. She even knew more about Anime than Rinka. |
| 347 | * PuppyDogEyes: Uses these on both Rinka and Miharu whenever they try to deny her food. It never fails to succeed. |

| 370 | |
| 371 | A French woman blessed with an incredible physique. |
| 372 | |
| 373 | Apparently the representative for a shipping company affiliated with the underworld who were known for taking on illegal work. This led to her clashing with pirates and military forces often, much to her delight as a fighting nut. Formed a friendly rivalry with Federico not long after Divine Selection began, agreeing to help one another become the last two participants. |
| 374 | |
| 375 | Has a very larger than life attitude, but boasts an impeccable perception and capacity for reasoning. To this effect, she rarely lets Federico handle important tasks, opting to work on her own. |
| 376 | ---- |

| 379 | * ColorMotif: Navy blue, as shown from her eye colour and the bright beads in her hair |
| 380 | * CombatMedic: |
| 381 | ** She mentions that she needed to know basic first aid to help treat her shipmates whenever they get hurt on long voyages. |
| 382 | ** [[spoiler: She also managed to hold her ground against [[ChildSoldier Yu]] and treated Federico's injury caused by him]]. |
| 383 | * DrivesLikeCrazy: Before the 7th Election, she says that she is more used to boats than cars and is not entirely sure what side of the road Japan drives on. |
| 384 | * EveryoneHasStandards: Refuses to get her shipping company involved in the drug trade. |
| 385 | * GeniusBruiser: One of the smartest characters in the story and was able to defeat several characters in hand-to-hand combat. |
| 386 | ** [[spoiler: She managed to deduce Ro Chanho's Cause of Death and Regret with very little information given to her.]] |
| 387 | ** [[spoiler: Knew that Federico's target for the 8th Election was her and that Scale's next target was Miharu.]] |

| 414 | |
| 415 | -> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/KunihiroMaeda (Japanese) |
| 416 | |
| 417 | An Indian man of little words. |
| 418 | |
| 419 | His personality makes his actions hard to predict, though it’s apparent that he has every intention of eliminating every other Divine Selection participant without mercy. What motivates him is unknown, but there’s certainly more to him than meets the eye. |
| 420 | ---- |
| 421 | * TheAce: The CEO of a successful jewellery company and is highly proficient in hand-to-hand combat. Even managing to barely win in a fight against [[AmazonianBeauty Odette.]] |
| 422 | * AffablyEvil: |
| 423 | ** [[spoiler: He threatened to kill several babies in a hospital ward, including Keiko's if she did not tell him her Cause of Death and Regret.]] |
| 424 | * BigBrotherInstinct: To his siblings, but especially his sister Amrita. And to a lesser extent, eventually Rinka as well due to their similarities. |
| 425 | * GeniusBruiser: Brought up his relatively small company to a powerful jewellery empire by out-maneuvering several competitors with his genius business tactics. Clearly shown to be very capable in combat too, holding his own against both [[GeniusBruiser Odette]] and [[ChildSoldier Yu]] on two separate occasions and Federico too. |
| 426 | ** [[spoiler: However, he cares for his little sister Amrita very much and was willing to protect Rinka in the latter half of the story just because of Rinka's similarity to her.]] |
| 427 | * HatedByAll: [[spoiler: Has several enemies outside and within his company due to his ruthless business decisions. Eventually leads to them killing him by putting poison in his coffee]] |
| 428 | * {{Irony}}: Rich and successful CEO at age of 19? Check. One of the most dangerous participants from a combat standpoint? Check. Super smart? Check. [[spoiler: Despite having all these advantages going for him, his position as Number XII means in the case of a tie with another participant at the end of Divine Selection, he is always going to be the one to go as he is the hardest for Fate to save. Also, his last name is Scorpion, and was killed by poison.]] |
| 429 | * {{Leitmotif}}: His, appropriately enough, is "Alan". |
| 430 | * NotSoStoic: [[spoiler: Manages to crack a smile in the latter half of the game around Rinka as her personality greatly resembles his sister's.]] |
| 431 | * TheTeetotaler: Never had much interest for alcohol, despite no longer practicing a religion that bans it. Also, he's under Japan's legal drinking age. |
| 432 | * VillainousRescue: [[spoiler: Alan follows and knocks out Scale after finding out that he was going to kidnap and kill Rinka's grandmother if Rinka did not tell him the contents of her cards.

| 461 | Seemingly has little interest in her classmates other than Rinka and Miharu, though unlike them she does have other friends. She loves shopping like no other, to the point that her first priority at amusement parks is to hit up the gift stores. |
| 462 | |
| 463 | Rinka makes it a point not to tell her about Divine Selection, though she has noticed that something isn’t quite right. |
| 464 | ---- |
| 465 | * HyperAwareness: Although she doesn't know that Rinka and Miharu have both died and are part of Divine Selection, she is aware that something is going on in their lives but chooses not to pry. |
| 466 | * ShipperOnDeck: For Miharu/Rinka. Even encourages Miharu to confess her feelings to Rinka by giving them time and space for her to do so. |
| 467 | * SmarterThanYouLook: Despite spending hours of her time shopping, watching dramas and reading shojo manga, her backstory shows that before attending Amecha she was once a very intelligent student. However, she entered her "rebellious stage" during high school and decided to do what she wanted to do rather than earn high grades to appease her parents. |

| 492 | |
| 493 | Shy and introverted most of the time, though she has no issues talking to those she gets along with. Came to know Rinka through certain circumstances, and eventually became friends with Mao and Miharu through her. A bookworm at heart, she also enjoys making sweets often. Dark places and scary stories are two of her biggest weaknesses. She has a solid relationship with her parents. |
| 494 | |
| 495 | Her tendency to keep her feelings to herself lead to her classmates assigning her as head of the committee for the cafe they plan on opening during the culture festival, but her dedication to doing the best possible job leads to her learning how to brew coffee from Rinka. |

| 497 | The events of Rinka’s death haunt her dreams despite said events having been erased due to Divine Selection, possibly because she was present at the time. While not a participant, she does help Rinka gather information for Divine Selection. |

| 504 | --> '''Rinka:''' I'm not sure if it's due to her meek nature or not, but Naomi tends to trip herself up pretty often. |

| 507 | * ObliviousToLove: Mentions that she has never known what it feels like to be in love. |

| 535 | |
| 536 | She oversees Divine Selection, and only interacts with Rinka and the other participants within the strange dream world it takes place in. Unlike the participants, she can also move around freely in this space. She feels absolutely nothing over the events that take place during Divine Selection. |
| 537 | |
| 538 | Her white dress and wool-like hair provide a fantastical air to her appearance, and while she may speak like a lady from the upper echelons of society, she has little issue saying some rather horrible things. Very little is known about her, including her preferences or even how she spends her time when not overseeing Divine Selection. |

| 544 | * FailureIsTheOnlyOption: No matter what ending, she never gets what she truly wants: [[spoiler:to possess Rinka and live her life again. Either Rinka is eliminated, fights off her possession, or eliminates her instead]]. Even in Bad End 4, she [[spoiler:dies again almost immediately afterwards in a freak accident.

| 548 | --> [[spoiler: '''Parca:''' Know that a scenario can involve Numeral I electing Numeral XII and Numeral XII elects Numeral III. Should Numeral I succeed in eliminating Numeral XII, Numeral III's election is null and void.]] |

| 551 | * GracefulLoser: [[spoiler: Once she's back in one piece, she accepts her election without complaint. To be expected when Dianna herself just wants to move on already.]] |
