7	!!'''Kanon Mizushiro'''
8	!!!Voiced by: Creator/ReiMatsuzaki
9	Ruby's classmate, roommate, and main heroine of the season. She came from the human world to study at the Sunshine Academy and achieve her dream. She is very posh, mean and nasty, and has a warped friendship with Ruby, constantly getting into arguments with her that frequently get physical. But she and the Jewelpet trust and care for each other and cooperate on the worst situations. She has a crush on Mikage.
10	----
11	* ACupAngst: Well, the school uniform is a little baggy, so it's hard to see her size. But in episode 32-A, [[ItMakesSenseInContext Ruby cops a feel]] and comments that they're too small, which makes Kanon rage.
12	* AlphaBitch: With a GirlPosse.
13	* ApocalypseMaiden: [[spoiler:Subverted. Her superstitious grandmother thought that she would bring disgrace due to being born with an odd mark, but it's actually indication that she's one of the Wise Ones.]]
14	* BadassNormal: Thanks to her absurd strength, she can keep up with the magical beings in a fight.
15	* BaitTheDog: Does this to Ruby quite a lot.
16	* BirthmarkOfDestiny: [[spoiler:Has one on the top of her head which gets her kicked out from the Shiraishi household, influences her motor skills, and is probably indication that she's a Wise One.]]
17	* BitchInSheepsClothing: Often victimizes herself in order to appear sympathetic.
18	* BreakTheHaughty: [[spoiler:The reveal of her family ties to Mikage was harsh on her, but at least she toned the attitude down a little.]]
19	* ChildHater: According to episode 32-A.
20	* TheChosenOne: [[spoiler:One of the Wise Ones.]]
21	* ContrastingSequelProtagonist:
22	** [[Anime/JewelpetTwinkle Akari]] is a sweet-natured, unassuming, shy and unconfident girl. This is also true of the other ''Jewelpet'' protagonists to varying extents, but Kanon is the exception and the opposite of all these things, being an overconfident mean girl instead.
23	** All ''Jewelpet'' protagonists are in middle school and Akari in particular is the youngest out of all of them, but Kanon is a high school senior, making her the oldest ''Jewelpet'' protagonist.
24	** Kanon's jet-black hair stands in stark contrast against the other protagonists' bright hair colors (Akari has light brown hair, as do the other protagonists when they don't have pink or red hair instead).
25	* CosmeticHorror: Her Super Mega Mask of Facial Perfection [[note]]this was the name given to it in a European dub[[/note]].
26	* DidNotGetTheGuy: [[spoiler:Justified. The guy is her brother.]]
27	* {{Elopement}}: With Mikage in episodes 35-36-B.
28	* EmpoweredBadassNormal: [[spoiler:Using magic in the last episode.]]
29	* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: Played for laughs in episode 16-B where she slaps Hinata for wanting to give up on destroying their homework. Sapphie asks to "quit it with the drama movie-like antics".
30	* GirlishPigtails: Wears her hair like this on dates.
31	* HappilyAdopted: [[spoiler:The Mizushiros are still the family she has known all her life and she loves them just as they love her. And going back to her biological family at the age of 18 would be unrealistic anyway.]]
32	* HeroicComedicSociopath
33	* TheHeroine
34	* IdiotHair: Has a cowlick atop her head.
35	* InconsistentColoring: Her eyes are brown, but sometimes they look more red.
36	* InexplicablyAwesome: The origins of her SuperStrength are unknown [[spoiler:(it may or may not stem from her being a Wise One)]]. Also, in the last arc, [[spoiler:she uses magic alongside Ruby with no explanation given]].
37	* ItsAllAboutMe
38	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She's very arrogant and is frequently selfish, but has moments of kindness (such as worrying about Ruby's feelings when she's going out with Mikage) and is firmly on the good guys' side.
39	* LargeHam: She tones it down a little after [[spoiler:discovering that Mikage is her brother.]]
40	* LoserProtagonist: Somewhat, being part of the Plum class. However, she's [[AlphaBitch a winner]] ''inside'' the class' mini-society.
41	* MeaningfulName:
42	** Kanon has the kanji for "sound", referring to how outspoken and loud she is, especially when compared to the other ''Jewelpet'' protagonists. It also contains "flower", referring to her high-class upbringing.
43	** Mizuhiro means "water castle", referring to the illusory nature of her comfortable life. [[spoiler:Namely being unknowingly adopted.]]
44	* MementoMacGuffin: [[spoiler:The photo of her and Mikage when they're kids.]]
45	* MotherlySidePlait: Dresses her hair like this when Ruby turns into a baby and she has to take care of her.
46	* {{Motif}}: Spirals and swirls. Especially during TheReveal.
47	** RuleOfSymbolism
48	* MySisterIsOffLimits: My Brother Is Off Limits: [[spoiler:After discovering that Mikage is really her brother, she's still not letting Ruby anywhere near him. She has gotten over it by the epilogue.]]
49	* ObliviousAdoption: [[spoiler:She didn't know the Mizushiros weren't her biological parents until the reveal in episode 45.]]
50	* PetTheDog: Towards Titana.
51	* PostStressOvereating: She eats the huge batch of cookies (and, on a separate occasion, Valentine's chocolates) she made for Mikage after being laughed at by her classmates because of their shape.
52	* RichBitch: The Mizushiros are rich. Her personality is what you know.
53	* RomanticFalseLead: In a rare example of a protagonist playing this role, she's this for Mikage. Even before the [[spoiler:SurpriseIncest]], it becomes quite evident that they just don't click romantically.
54	* RunningGag: The food she makes always has a swirly shape to it, [[ToiletHumour sometimes with unfortunate results]], and on two separate occasions she has to eat it all up because she's too embarrassed to [[ThroughHisStomach give it to Mikage]]. It doesn't actually taste bad, though.
55	* SeanConneryIsAboutToShootYou: Near the beginning of the OP's 1st version, followed by a PistolPose.
56	* SiblingYinYang: [[spoiler:With Mikage. She's loud and dramatic where he's polite and calm.]]
57	* SpoiledBrat: She's very entitled and arrogant.
58	* SpyCatsuit: In some episodes. Seems to be her adventure outfit.
59	* SternTeacher: [[spoiler:Becomes one in the epilogue.]]
60	* StrongFamilyResemblance: Looks a lot like Mrs. Mizushiro, [[spoiler:which is a red herring so you DON'T suspect that Kanon might just be adopted. She doesn't particularly look like anyone in her biological family.]]
61	* SuperStrength: She's known to carry grown men on her back with ease, as well as breaking a giant cookie with a single punch, among other exploits.
62	** MegatonPunch
63	* {{Tsundere}}: For Ruby, non-romantically. For Mikage, she's full-blown unambiguously dere.
64	* TsurimeEyes: Befitting her mean personality. It's another thing she has that's unlike the other ''Jewelpet'' protagonists.
65	* UnscrupulousHero: Contrary to every other Jewelpet protagonist, Kanon is mean, haughty and rarely shows disinterested kindness. However, even in the most desperate of situations, she will never abandon her friends.
66	* UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: Although the anime separates pretty carefully the moments where you're supposed to laugh at her misfortunes and when you're supposed to feel sorry for her.
67	* VitriolicBestBuds: With Ruby. They whale on each other all the time, but when it comes down to it, they do care about each other.
68
69	!!'''Hinata Asaka'''
70	!!!Voiced by: Creator/AkiToyosaki
71	Ruby's classmate and friend, Hinata comes from the human world to study at the Sunshine Academy. She is very shy and terrible at sports, but she is supportive of her classmates, especially of Ruby. She rooms with Peridot, who convinces her to become a little more active. She is also Ruby's former roommate. Her dream is to become a preschool teacher after she graduates from college.
72
73	* AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever: [[spoiler:Peridot makes her gigantic so she can fight the brainwashed-by-Dark-Queen Headmaster.]]
74	* BadassNormal: While she doesn't jump into action as promptly as Kanon or Shouko, she's perfectly capable of holding her own when needed.
75	* BalloonBelly: Episode 17.
76	* BerserkButton: Don't ask her for help with your homework. Just. Don't.
77	* {{Bookworm}}: Used mostly to contrast her with Peridot.
78	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Once by M-Kage.
79	* CoolBigSis / TeamMom: She fits these roles to her Jewelpet classmates, being the one most willing to listen to their troubles. She's also a literal big sister back in the human world.
80	* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Brown hair and eyes.
81	* {{Determinator}}
82	* EmpoweredBadassNormal: In the last arc, [[spoiler:when Peridot turned her into a giant.]]
83	* ExtremeDoormat: Strongly implied to have been this before rooming with Peridot.
84	* FunTShirt: Wears them often.
85	* GenkiGirl: Becomes more like this after moving in with Peridot.
86	* TheHeart: Has by far the most common sense in the whole school.
87	** OnlySaneWoman
88	* HeroicFireRescue: Episode 43. She saves Peridot inside the burning dormitory, wearing the firefighter's outfit her father sent to her.
89	* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Uses her huge stature to shield the Wise Ones from the Dark Queen's attacks, slowly freezing herself in the process.]]
90	* {{Kiai}}: "HAWAII!" in the final showdown arc.
91	* MeaningfulName: 'Hinata' [[OneSteveLimit (again)]] means 'sunny place'; 'asa' can also mean 'morning'. A name fitting for the most pleasant person of this season.
92	* NiceGirl: She's very kind-hearted and understanding.
93	* ShrinkingViolet: She gets better.
94	* SlipknotPonytail: In episode 43.
95	* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The girly girl to Peridot and on a meta level to Shouko.
96	* WhenYouComingHomeDad: As a child, she was disappointed many times by her father's commitment to his fireman job, to the detriment of spending time with her.
97
98	!!'''Shouko Aizawa'''
99	!!!Voiced by: Creator/MiyukiSawashiro
100	Another of Ruby's classmates. She's a tomboyish delinquent with a very strong code of honor. She is friends with Charotte and Waniyama, and sometimes has arguments with Ruby. She has a crush on Master and, one time, Rald. She's very keen on motorcycles and loves racing; her dream is to compete in the Moto GP.
101
102	* AllAmazonsWantHercules: Takes-no-shit-from-anyone Shouko wants martial artist Master.
103	* AllBikersAreHellsAngels: Rides a scooter (and a sport bike when racing) and leads a gang.
104	* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Her crushes on Rald (who's unaware) and Master (who rejects her).

106	* BadassBiker: With Angela as her motorcycle.
107	* BadassNormal
108	* {{Badbutt}}: Despite being a gang leader, she doesn't do anything in the way of classroom disruption, has goals in life and her classmates are unafraid of her.
109	* BookDumb: She's not exactly stupid, but she obviously doesn't study (e.g. thinking dolphins are fish).
110	* BoyishShortHair: In her first year at the academy.
111	* TheBigGirl
112	* CoolBigSis: Acts the part to Charotte and Waniyama.
113	* DisappearedDad: No mention of him. Also worth noting is that while her mother is mentioned and seen once, she doesn't show up for the school play.
114	* FriendlessBackground: She came to Sunshine Academy because people back in the human world were afraid of her and wouldn't approach her. Even then, she remained friendless until she met Charotte and Waniyama.
115	* HidingBehindYourBangs: She has bangs covering one eye. She is asocial in that her status as a delinquent keeps her apart from the rest of the class and she doesn't interact much with them, though she has friends in Charotte and Waniyama, and later Angela.
116	* TheIdiotFromOsaka: She is a stereotypical Osakan in that she has a violent temper and does poorly at school.
117	* JapaneseDelinquents: She is the banchou of the Plum class.
118	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She likes to pick fights but is a pretty honorable girl.
119	* {{Meido}}: Wears this when working in the Strawberry Cafe.
120	* ModestyShorts: Part of her usual outfit.
121	* NoodleIncident: When the students are discussing their mothers, she mentions that hers picks her up from the police station frequently, with no further elaboration.
122	* OralFixation: Always seen with a lollipop in her mouth.
123	* PassionateSportsGirl: About racing.
124	* ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything: The most delinquent-like thing she and her goons are seen doing is hang out behind the school. And that's it, really.
125	* SeriousBusiness: Racing.
126	* SirSwearsALot: By Japanese standards.
127	* SmittenTeenageGirl: She falls desperately in love with Rald and Master because they seemed so cool to her.
128	* {{Tomboy}}
129	** TomboyAndGirlyGirl: While they don't interact much, she's the tomboy to Hinata as both are considered members of the main human trio of this season.
130	* {{Tsundere}}: Type A; behaves like a standard banchou most of the time, but totally melts around the people she likes (Rald and Master).
131	* WorthyOpponent: To Iruka in episode 5-A.
132
133	!!'''Mikage Shiraishi''' / '''M-Kage of the Rose'''
134	!!!Voiced by: Creator/AtsushiTamaru
135	Kanon's and Ruby's LoveInterest, and part of the Plum class. He's a handsome, kind boy, albeit a bit distant, and the heir to a school of flower arrangement. Under the influence of Dark Magic, he develops a split personality known as M-Kage of the Rose in episode 31, a masked man who charms girls and steals valuable objects.
136
137	* AlternateIdentityAmnesia: He can't remember being M-Kage. Averted when the personalities merge.
138	* {{Animorphism}} / {{Metamorphosis}}: At the end, [[spoiler:he permanently turns into Granite so he can be with Ruby]].
139	* BadassNormal: As M-Kage.
140	* BeYourself: His character arc revolves around becoming more honest with his feelings and with what he wants out of life, independently of other people's expectations for him.
141	* BizarreTasteInFood: Likes putting soy sauce and natto in curry (this combo is probably meaningless to a Westerner, but it is considered VERY strange in Japan), which offends Jasper.
142	* BlueOni: The cool and snarky contrast to Masago.
143	* CharacterizationMarchesOn: He's shown good-naturedly picking on Ruby in early episodes, but this is dropped very early on to give emphasis to his emotionally distant attitude.
144	* ChickMagnet: More as M-Kage than as Mikage.
145	* ClarkKenting: M-Kage. Those domino glasses ain't hiding jack.
146	* TheComicallySerious: Humour centered around him usually comes from his disinterested reactions to the craziness around him.
147	* TheCowl: M-Kage after Mikage learns to control him.
148	* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Dark blue hair and eyes.
149	* DeadpanSnarker: Sometimes. Especially where Masago or Jasper are concerned.
150	* {{Elopement}}: With Kanon in episodes 35-36-B.
151	* {{Expy}}: As M-Kage of the Rose, he's one of Tuxedo Mask from ''Franchise/SailorMoon''.
152	** His costume is also very similar to Batman's.
153	* FakeDefector: After being defeated by the Dark Queen, [[spoiler:Mikage pretends to be on the her side so he can figure out a weakness.]]
154	* GentlemanThief / PhantomThief: M-Kage of the Rose.
155	* GreenEyedEpiphany: In episode 48, after spending all that time ignoring his feelings for Ruby, he looks incredibly incensed when Tour declares his love to Ruby.
156	* HeirToTheDojo: Not a dojo exactly, but it's an important plot point that Mikage does not have any dreams or even the passion to look for a dream because of the pressure his parents put on him to inherit their flower-arranging business.
157	* HighSchoolSweethearts: [[spoiler:With Ruby.]]
158	* HouseHusband: He's generally the one who cleans the room. Even nags Masago to put his magazines away.
159	* IcyBlueEyes: Despite his kindness, he's also a bit emotionally distant from most people, due to his strict upbringing.
160	* InterspeciesRomance: With Ruby. [[spoiler:Ultimately picks her, too.]]
161	* LoveEpiphany: Episode 32 towards Ruby, though he gets knocked out and forgets about it.
162	* MeaningfulName: Mikage comes from the Japanese word mikageishi which means [[spoiler:granite. In the last episode the white lion named Granite is actually Mikage's Jewelpet form.]]
163	* MementoMacGuffin: [[spoiler:The photo of him and Kanon when they were kids.]]
164	* NiceGuy
165	* OpaqueLenses: As M-Kage, so it becomes more plausible that people can't figure out who he is.
166	** ScaryShinyGlasses: When he discovers [[spoiler:the Dark Queen's weakness.]]
167	* PrincelyYoungMan: Gentleman type, with a bit of Ice King too, being a rich, well-educated and charming boy who doesn't show off or care much for his wealth, but also a bit broken and sad inside.
168	* RealMenWearPink: He does flower arrangement, knows how to wear Japanese clothing properly and is a HouseHusband to boot. Yet he himself isn't effeminate at all.
169	* SelectiveObliviousness: His feelings for Ruby date from since he met her in his childhood, but he only acknowledges them at the end (because zoophilia).
170	* SiblingYinYang: [[spoiler:With Kanon. See her entry.]]
171	* SomethingAboutARose: M-Kage.
172	* SplitPersonalityMerge: M-Kage starts out as a distinct personality whose deeds Mikage can't remember commiting, but with Ruby's help he manages to tame it and the next time we see it Mikage is in complete control.
173	* TranquilFury: Even when angry, he rarely loses his composure.
174	* TroubledButCute: He's tormented by his lack of independence and the fact that he's in love with a Jewelpet, the latter of which he tries very hard to deny.
175	* WrongGirlFirst: Initially chooses Kanon over Ruby, the one he truly wants. Kanon is the wrong girl by the power of [[spoiler:secret incest]].
176
177	!!'''Masago Kuroda'''
178	!!!Voiced by: Ryota Asari
179	Masago is one of the human students in the Plum class. He's essentially the class clown, though he has a bad luck streak. Good friends and roommates with Mikage and Jasper. He has a crush on Garnet.
180
181	* BromanticFoil: He's Mikage's out-going and funny best friend.
182	* ButtMonkey: He often faces the consequences of his classmates' magical antics. See the episode where he gets bald, or when Kanon and Ruby force him to eat their excess cookies.
183	* ClassClown: Has a knack for joking in class, though he still pales compared to Ruby.
184	* CurtainsMatchTheWindow: Brown hair and brown eyes.
185	* DeadpanSnarker: Tends to react like this in his butt monkey moments.
186	* DoggedNiceGuy: To Garnet.
187	* InterspeciesRomance: He likes Garnet a lot.
188	* LargeHamAnnouncer: In competitions. Often drags Mikage to these things, where he serves as the serious but snarky contrast.
189	* PrimaDonnaDirector: He's irritatingly demanding when directing his first movie.
190	* RedOni: An easy-going jokester who contrasts with his best friend Mikage.
191
192	!!'''Kaede Kikuchi and Komachi Saotome'''
193	!!!Voiced by: Creator/AiShimizu and Creator/AyaHirano
194	Kanon's GirlPosse. Kaede is the one with pigtails and Komachi is the one with wavy hair. Other than that and their dreams (Kaede wants a rich guy and Komachi wants to be a baker), they are virtually indistinguishable from each other, and they seem to know it.
195
196	* BirdsOfAFeather: Komachi and Sango.
197	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Once by M-Kage [[spoiler:and later the Dark Queen.]]
198	* GirlishPigtails: Kaede.
199	* GirlPosse: Their main (only?) job is to be Kanon's servants, it seems.
200	* GoldDigger: Kaede.
201	* OfCorsetsSexy: When brainwashed.
202	* SatelliteCharacter: Lampshaded as they freely admit that they have no clue what they're supposed to do when Kanon isn't around. Later subverted through some sprinkles of CharacterDevelopment.
203	* SpyCatsuit: Alongside Kanon, though not seen as much.
204	* ShipperOnDeck: For Kanon/Mikage.
205	* SubordinateExcuse: They've given indication of genuinely liking Kanon, like the time they cried when they thought she had eloped with Mikage, and they still hang around her into adult age.
206	* ThoseTwoGirls: To give them separate sections would be a veritable exercise in futility.
207	* VerbalTic: "-desu wa" for Komachi, "-desu no" for Kaede.
208	* VisualPun: Kaede is going fishing! For a guy. What did you think she meant?
209	* VitriolicBestBuds: Komachi and Sango clash a lot because of Sango being critical of Komachi's cooking prowess. However, they get along enough that [[spoiler:they team up to open a patisserie in the epilogue.]]
210	* YesMan: They suck up to Kanon all day long.
211
212	!!'''Junko Mihara'''
213	!!!Voiced by: MAKO
214	Junko is the head of the school newspaper in the Sunshine Academy. Introduced in episode 10, she is very passionate about her job and goes to drastic lengths to keep students interested in her newspaper, including forging fake scoops. Peridot works with her as her photographer.
215
216	* BitchInSheepsClothing: Particularly taking her backstory into account.
217	* ConsummateLiar: She WILL get her headlines, even if she has to manipulate people into it.
218	* ADayInTheLimelight: Episode 10-B.
219	* FieryRedhead: Has orange hair and a very extroverted disposition.
220	* GenkiGirl: She's also very perky.
221	* HotBlooded: She's very passionate about her job.
222	* {{Hypocrite}}: In episode 24, she gets mad at Ruby for implying that the news about Kanon and Mikage getting together is fake, asking her if she's calling her a liar and arguing that a journalist's job is reporting the truth. Looks like she needs reminding of episode 10.
223	* IdiotHair: Perks up whenever she gets a new idea for a scoop.
224	* ImDyingPleaseTakeMyMacGuffin: [[spoiler:Gave Kanon her notebook that told them to go see Munata for help, after which she maybe fainted, maybe died but was later brought back to life.]]
225	* MySignificanceSenseIsTingling: Can feel the presence of potential scoops.
226	* {{Paparazzi}}: She takes pictures of her classmates in compromising situations and makes scandalous, false news stories out of them.
227	* SchoolNewspaperNewsHound: She leads the school newspaper club and is always on the lookout for scoops.
228	* StrawmanNewsMedia: Ever since her newspaper sales fell into a rut, she's been favoring sensationalistic lead stories. [[spoiler:A good example is revealing to the whole school the family ties between Kanon and Mikage.]]
229	* UnreliableNarrator: Her [[{{Glurge}} tragic]] backstory about how she decided to become a journalist might very well be a lie.
230	* WorstNewsJudgementEver: Stories about Kanon picking her nose and Ruby wetting her bed (all falsehoods, mind you) have been lead stories.
231
232	!!'''Kurara Nemoto'''
233	!!!Voiced by: Nozomi Sasaki
234	Kurara is a student from Ruby's class. She is a quiet girl who keeps to herself and sits way at the back of the class. In episode 12, Hinata and some Jewelpets find a notebook of hers with strange drawings in it and suspect that she is involved with Dark Magic, but it turns out that it was just a formula for a costume she wanted to make, as she is a hardcore cosplayer. It's thanks to her that Angela gains the ability to speak. She spends much of the series warning her classmates of impending doom.
235
236	* TheCassandra: Her warnings either go unheard or ignored.
237	* CosplayOtakuGirl: A big reason why she wants to be a magical girl is because she simply ''loves'' dressing up and kicking bad guys' asses.
238	* CreepyGood: Has a tendency to sneak on people and scare 'em straight with her omens. But she's with the good guys and actively fights Dark Magic.
239	* GoodAllAlong: At first, her classmates think she's involved with Dark Magic. For good reason, as she kidnaps Angela and straps her to a table. But she doesn't actually mean any harm by it; she just needed Angela to help her with her magic.
240	* HostileShowTakeover: Tries to turn the show into ''Mahou Shoujo Jewel Kurara'', with the help of the narrator. Everybody quickly puts a stop to this.
241	* InnocentBlueEyes: Her eyes are, of course, usually covered up, but as a magical girl, it's shown that they are a gorgeous blue shade, indicating her heroicism.
242	* LonersAreFreaks: Sits at the back of the class, reputedly has no friends, freaks people out with her warnings. Is also the only human with magical powers of her own.
243	* {{Meido}}: Her magical girl attire.
244	* MisunderstoodLonerWithAHeartOfGold: See GoodAllAlong.
245	* NegatedMomentOfAwesome: In her fight against Mecha-Sango, she makes all sorts of poses while making a InTheNameOfTheMoon speech and the background goes crazy. Then she begins charging at the robotic cat... who disdainfully swats her aside with her paw. Well done.
246	* OracularUrchin: Correctly predicts when Dark Magic is up to something.
247	* ProperlyParanoid: The way she warns people makes her seem like one big ConspiracyTheorist, but she's right.
248	* TheWorfEffect: Despite being the only super-powered human of the season, she's [[spoiler:one of the first casualties of the final showdown arc.]]
249
250	!!'''Tetsuo Nejikawa'''
251	!!!Voiced by: Creator/JunFukuyama
252	A robot who thinks and feels by himself and a student in the Plum class. Is in love with Sapphie, towards whom he's very devoted.
253
254	* AccidentalMisnaming: Nobody ever seems to remember his name right.
255	* AllThereInTheManual: His first name.
256	* BecomeARealBoy: His wish is to travel to a star so he can become human.
257	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler:By the Dark Queen.]]
258	* DoggedNiceGuy: To Sapphie, somewhat. She's not a tsundere, but she can be quite callous with him.
259	* {{Expy}}: [[Manga/CromartieHighSchool Mechazawa]] for girls.
260	* ForgettableCharacter: Often forgotten by his classmates. His introductory episode even ends with everyone asking in unison: "Who the heck are you anyway?"
261	* HypocriticalHumor: In episode 45 - "Chocolate is nothing more than a collection of trans fats that have nothing to do with love." (Sapphie gives him chocolate) "JEALOUS FOOLS! Don't you know that love is the main ingredient of chocolate?"
262	* IronButtMonkey
263	* LastNameBasis: Never ever referred to by his first name.
264	* MachineMonotone: Usually talks like this.
265	* MacrossMissileMassacre: Which are actually fireworks.
266	* MeaningfulName: 'Tetsu' means 'iron'. 'Neji' means 'screw'.
267	* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: Not in the physical sense, but he emotes and is rather dorky.
268	* RoboticSpouse: He's in love with Sapphie, and [[spoiler:may or may not end up with her in the epilogue.]]
269	* TransformingMecha: He can transform into pretty much anything, it seems. However, that doesn't mean every form works as it should (for example, his plane form that can't fly). And some transformations are way bigger than he is.
270	** TelescopingRobot

272	!!'''Gakuto Waniyama'''
273	!!!Voiced by: Ryota Asari
274	An anthropomorphic crocodile and a student of the Plum class. He's a member of Shouko's gang, though he used to be leader of his own gang (called the Theoretical Dragon Gang). Has a crush on Ruby and demonstrates it by eating her up.
275
276	* {{Badbutt}}: Same thing as Shouko; additionally he spends Summer trying out various jobs to see which one he likes best, something a real delinquent wouldn't do at all.
277	* BarefootCartoonAnimal: Wears tops and bottoms, but no shoes.
278	* DefeatMeansFriendship: Disbanded his old gang and joined Shouko's after she defeated him.
279	* FunnyAnimal
280	* GroinAttack: Charotte stung him on the crotch (specifically, a testicle, or at least that's what the animation implies), which caused him to develop a second, feminine, personality.
281	* HopelessSuitor: Gobbling up the girl you have a crush on won't help your case, Gakuto.
282	* InterspeciesRomance: His crush on Ruby, though she wants nothing with him.
283	* JapaneseDelinquents: One of the three delinquents in the Plum class.
284	* LastNameBasis: Throughout the season, he gets called Gakuto a grand total of... two times.
285	* MeaningfulName: 'Wani' means 'crocodile'. 'Gaku' is a Japanese onomatopoeia for the sound of biting.
286	* MegatonPunch: Sent Shouko flying in their fight.
287	* NeverSmileAtACrocodile: Not only is he a delinquent, he tries several times to eat Ruby.
288	* SplitPersonality: His feminine side.
289
290	!!'''Ennosuke Nishigori'''
291	!!!Voiced by: Creator/YojiUeda
292	An anthropomorphic gorilla who is the class representative for the Plum class. He has a terrible temper, little patience towards the Plum class' antics and is always stressing out because of exams. The much more demure Opal, the vice-class representative, serves as his foil.
293
294	* AllThereInTheManual: His first name.
295	* BarefootCartoonAnimal: Wears tops and bottoms, but no shoes.
296	* ButtMonkey: As his serious attitude doesn't sync with the craziness of his class, he's often subject to humiliations.
297	* ClassRepresentative: His position in the Plum class.
298	* {{Expy}}: [[Manga/CromartieHighSchool Gorilla]] for girls.
299	* FunnyAnimal
300	* HairTriggerTemper: He easily loses his patience with the Plum class.
301	* LastNameBasis: Everybody calls him by his last name.
302	* MeaningfulName: 'Enno' uses the kanji for 'monkey', and 'gori' should be transparent enough.
303	* RedOni: To Opal.
304
305	!!'''Yaginuma'''
306	!!!Voiced by: Creator/YojiUeda
307	A completely unanthropomorphic, realistically drawn goat (well, as realistically as the budget allows). Yaginuma is a totally unremarkable goat who somehow made it into high school and sticks out by... not sticking out.
308
309	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler:By the Dark Queen.]]
310	* {{Expy}}: May be inspired by Koujirou's goat, from ''Manga/{{Nichijou}}''. Coincidentally or not, both anime premiered in April 2011, ''Nichijou'' being an adaptation of an older manga.
311	* ExtremeOmniGoat: Occasionally eats paper. His classmates sometimes use this to their advantage.
312	* ForgettableCharacter: Nejikawa claims so ("I'm even more forgotten than Yaginuma.").
313	* MeaningfulName: 'Yagi' means 'goat'.
314	* NearlyNormalAnimal: Almost Normal Animal variety; despite somehow being in high school, he doesn't show a level of intellect higher than what is expected of a real-life goat.
315	* RidiculouslyAverageGuy: He's a goat, but see, the joke is that he's an utterly normal, real world goat who somehow made it into a high school that's attended by, among other things, talking, magical animals.
316	* RogerRabbitEffect: Inverted in one episode. Labra casts a spell to turn him into a real (as in, LIVE-ACTION) goat and he stayed like that for the duration of the episode, interacting with the animated world around him. Note the AnimationBump when Shouko holds onto him.
317	* SpannerInTheWorks: When King gets hold of a contract that makes him the legal owner of Sunshine Academy, Yaginuma eats it before he can carry out his plans.
318
319	!!'''Katori'''
320	Katori is a mosquito in the Plum class. It's so small that it's invisible most of the time, with an arrow pointing it out when needed. If you see an empty seat in the class, it's probably Katori's. It is in a relationship with Charotte (even though Katori is female, which Charotte never finds out), which extends into the epilogue.
321
322	* AllThereInTheManual: According to the Japanese Wikipedia, Katori wants to work in pharmacy.
323	* ForgettableCharacter: Since it's practically invisible.
324	* GenderBlenderName: Subverted. Given that Katori is a typically female name, the Plum class really should have been more clued in about its gender.
325	* InsectGenderBender: Lampshaded by Sapphie mumbling that Katori's really a female when everybody's treating it as male; but it's enforced as she doesn't tell anyone else this and doesn't mention it anymore either.
326	* InterspeciesRomance: With Charotte.
327	* KilledOffForReal: Dies sometime during the time-skip to the epilogue. Given the lifespan of mosquitos, it's not that surprising. This makes it notable for being one of very few characters in the franchise to permanently die.
328	* MadeOfIron: It has survived lots of squashings at the hands of its classmates and teacher.
329	* MeaningfulName: 'Ka' means 'mosquito'.
330	* SickeninglySweetHearts: With Charotte. It's not obvious on Katori's part, but it's implied that it writes some pretty sappy mails to her.
331	* TheSpeechless
332	* SuperStrength: It has to carry its schoolbag ''somehow''.

337
338	!!'''Teacher Iruka'''
339	!!!Voiced by: Creator/MasamiIwasaki
340	The teacher of Sunshine Academy's Plum class. He's a pink dolphin who walks around inside a fish tank, which the students find weird. He is hot-blooded and strict sometimes, but he knows how to support his students. He has a huge crush on Jill.
341
342	* AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal: A tie.
343	* AmazingTechnicolorWildlife: He's a pink dolphin. If he turns gray, it's a reason to start panicking.
344	* BadassTeacher: Gets to kick ass against [[spoiler:the Dark Queen, and is one of the last characters to fall to her.]]
345	%%* BigDamnHeroes: Several times.
346	* BigOlEyebrows: Has thick eyebrows to underline his tough personality.
347	%%* ButtMonkey
348	%%%%* CallingYourAttacks: "Dolphin Kick!"
349	%%* CoolTeacher
350	* TheChosenOne: [[spoiler:One of the Wise Ones.]]

353	%%* DoggedNiceGuy: To Jill.

358	* LargeHam: "I'll make you study SO HARD that you'll get '''CALLUSES on your ELBOWS'''!"
359	* ManlyTears: Shows them in the very first episode while staring at the setting sun.
360	* MassiveNumberedSiblings: He has more than a dozen siblings.
361	* MobileFishbowl: What he uses to get around. It's usually pushed around by [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kuroko kurokos]] or students. He can also use a staff like a paddle on the ground to propel it.
362	%% * [[RealMenWearPink Real Men Are Pink]]
363	* SaveOurStudents: Iruka's side of the story, since he's the new teacher assigned to a class with a terrible reputation.
364	** In the first episode, Ruby and friends invoke this by pretending to be delinquents so they can be straightened up by Iruka, because they mistakenly think Iruka has only one year to live and they want him to feel like he has fulfilled his duty before dying.
365	* SternTeacher: He'll Dolphin Kick his students if they don't listen, but he's overall pretty fair.
366	* TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow: In episode 30, Sapphie develops an interest in the kurokos carrying Iruka around, which leads her to discover that Iruka is not what he seems; apparently, him being a dolphin is just a ruse and there is ''something'' else under that hide. Taking into account Sapphie's reaction and the fact that it's never addressed again, it seems to be horrible enough that Iruka wants no one to find out.
367	* WorthyOpponent: To Shouko in episode 5-A.
368
369	!!'''Jill Konia'''
370	!!!Voiced by: Creator/YukiKaida

372
373	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Once by M-Kage [[spoiler:and later the Dark Queen in the last few episodes.]]
374	* DarkHorseVictory: Wins the race in episode 5-A because she was filming it on a bike and accidentally crossed the finish line first.
375	* DubNameChange: Known as 'Zirconita' in European dubs to make the intended pun more obvious, as otherwise it wouldn't really work.
376	* EveryoneLovesBlondes: She's portrayed as extremely desirable.
377	%%* HappilyMarried: [[spoiler:To Iruka in the epilogue.]]
378	* LadyInRed: Nearly always wears a red jacket and a red mini-skirt, to emphasize her attractiveness.
379	* OfCorsetsSexy: Sometimes wears a red one.
380	* OnlySaneWoman: Her no-nonsense attitude contrasts with Iruka's hot-blooded idealism.
381	* PunnyName: In keeping with the series' RockThemeNaming, her name can be read as 'Zirconia', a type of mineral.
382	* WhipOfDominance: She's an [[HotTeacher attractive]] and [[SternTeacher stern]] homeroom teacher in Sunshine Academy, and frequently carries a riding crop with her to make her look more imposing, though it also gives her a domineering vibe, something that's acknowledged InUniverse as Iruka actually has fantasies about her whipping him. The episode where she becomes BrainwashedAndCrazy also has her exchange the riding crop for a bullwhip and she [[DressedLikeADominatrix both dresses]] and acts like a sadistic {{Dominatrix}}.
383
384	!!'''Master'''
385	!!!Voiced by: Creator/YojiUeda
386	Master is an old man who runs the Strawberry Cafe. He is ripped for his age and likes showing it off, though he's not terribly boisterous. He employs Garnet and is the object of Shouko's affection.

394	%%* NoNameGiven
395	* NotSoStoic: Barely emotes, but can faint from fear.
396	%%* TheQuietOne
397	* ShirtlessScene: Because he's so [[{{Hunk}} chiseled]]!
398	* SilverFox: He's of a certain age, but he's still pretty hunky.
399
400	!!'''The Headmaster of the School'''
401	!!!Voiced by: Creator/YojiUeda

405	* TheChosenOne: One of the previous generation of Wise Ones, according to Munata.

408	* HeavySleeper: He's always sleeping on top of the school building, independently of the time of day. He only seems to wake up when there are pressing matters to attend to.

420
421	* ArtificialLimbs: His legs as seen in episode 40.
422	* ButNotTooForeign: He's only half-Japanese, despite the name.
423	* CatchPhrase: "Kharacho!" (It means "All right!" in Russian.)
424	* TheChosenOne: He's one of the previous generation of Wise Ones. [[spoiler:Peridot]] takes on his role.
425	* DangerousForbiddenTechnique: The flame tornado that he teaches to Peridot. Performing it ruined his legs.

437
438	* {{Eagleland}}: Mr. Mizushiro looks stereotypically American, with blond hair and a cowboy hat. There is no indication that he IS, though.
439	* HenpeckedHusband: Implied with Mr. Mizushiro.
440	* KnightOfCerebus: Mrs. Mizushiro isn't a villain (though she might seem like one at first, since the audience doesn't understand her reasons), but things immediately become more serious in her presence.
441	* MyBelovedSmother: Mrs. Mizushiro becomes more controlling of Kanon once she learns that she hangs out with Mikage.
442	* NoNameGiven: First names are unknown.
443	* ParentsAsPeople: They love Kanon alright, but they have no idea how to handle her relationship with Mikage.
444	* PoorCommunicationKills: If Mrs. Mizushiro just told Kanon the truth about Mikage from the moment they started dating instead of [[BecauseISaidSo withholding it and not bothering to explain herself]], a lot of drama would have been avoided. Given Kanon's stubborn personality, she really should've known better.
445	* StrongFamilyResemblance: Mrs. Mizushiro looks like a grown-up Kanon.
446	** [[spoiler:RedHerring: So the audience doesn't suspect preemptively that Kanon might be adopted.]]
