20Honnouji Academy students who run the school clubs and work directly under the Elite Four as henchmen. Only they are permitted to wear Two-Star Goku Uniforms that grant them superpowers greater than One-Stars' simple {{Status Buff}}s, but nowhere near as powerful as Three-Stars.

24[[folder:General]]
25%%* AbsurdlyPowerfulStudentCouncil
26* TheAssimilator: Aside from Iori, they are at one point [[spoiler:absorbed by COVERS until they are rescued in episode 22.]]
27* BackForTheFinale: After [[spoiler:being rescued from the COVERS which absorbed them]], every single last one of them shows up in time for episode 23 in order to [[spoiler:take back Honnouji Academy]].
28* TheBusCameBack: They reappear in episode 22 [[spoiler:after being rescued from COVERS]]. The first president that joins the battle is [[spoiler:Fight Club President Mako Mankanshoku]].
29* ClothingDamage: All of their uniforms get destroyed when Ryuko defeats them.
30* CustomUniform: Like the Elite Four, their Goku Uniforms are made to stand out among their club members. Most notably, their star crests and weapons glow a luminescent red.
31* DegradedBoss: Club Presidents become this by episode 5, and are taken out by Ryuko in episode 7 without even 30 seconds of screentime. Hell, [[CurbStompBattle they're lucky if they have more than four seconds of screentime at that point]].
32* EliteMooks: While ordinary One-Star students can be taken out by Ryuko with ease, these guys can give her a run for her money on a bad day.
33* MonsterOfTheWeek: Played straight initially then subverted. For the first four episodes, they are treated as a real threat who can give Ryuko a run for her money. By episode 5, she can [[OneHitKill one-shot them in seconds]].
34* PutOnABus: Due to their MonsterOfTheWeek status, they disappear from the story once Ryuko defeats them. Except Iori, who is the only one she doesn't fight.
35* QuirkyMinibossSquad: With the exception of [[SixthRanger Iori]] and [[TemporarilyAVillain Mako]], they all answer to the real bosses of the school.
36* SpikesOfVillainy: Like the Elite Four, a good many of the club presidents' uniforms have these features.

40!!Shiro Iori
41!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YujiUeda (Japanese), Creator/ToddHaberkorn (English)[[labelnote: Foreign [=VAs=]]]Florian Hoffmann (German), Alessandro Vanni (Italian)[[/labelnote]]

44->''"This is a Five-Star Goku Uniform whose weave is 50% Life Fibers. Commence sewing!"''
45
46The Sewing Club President and nephew of Satsuki's butler, Soroi. He oversees the research and development of the Goku Uniforms.
47----
48* AntiMagic: He's developed a tranquilizing coagulant that works to shut down goku uniforms temporarily. He uses it in Episode 16 to free Satsuki from Junketsu, [[spoiler:and later tries to use it to halt the primordial life fiber, but it manages to break free]].
49* BadassBoast: When [[spoiler:Aikuro]] asks if Shiro's able to mass produce Goku Uniforms all by himself, he confirms as much [[spoiler:before activating his Three-Star Uniform:]]
50--> '''Iori:''' "I'm all the help I need."
51* TheBlacksmith: As the head of the sewing club in a world where clothing is weaponized, he's basically this.
52* ChildhoodFriends: According to the drama CD, he's been friends with Satsuki since [[spoiler:her father faked his death]], when his uncle brought him over to play with her, so she wouldn't be alone.
53* CoolMask: Wears a translucent orange gas mask, presumably to protect himself from some dangerous particulate produced by Life Fibers. It becomes translucent green when [[spoiler:activating his Three-Star Uniform]].
54* DudeLooksLikeALady: He could easily pass for a flat-chested girl.
55* ForeheadOfDoom: He has a large forehead.
56* GadgeteerGenius: He is the one who designs and constructs the Goku Uniforms. Might share this position with Inumuta who specializes in gathering and analysis of battle data which are later used to improve the uniforms. Iori was also the one who built the Vacuum Fist used by Gamagoori to [[spoiler:save the COVERS victims]].
57* GasMaskLongcoat: His overall look, with his uniform length extending far beyond his height. The mask itself becomes exaggerated upon activating his Goku Uniform.
58* IAmNotLeftHanded: It turns out [[spoiler:that his uniform is a Three-Star. The third star was hidden by his folded collar]].
59* ImplausibleHairColor: Despite being full Japanese, Iori has blond hair.
60* LabcoatOfScienceAndMedicine: The first sign that Iori isn't just your run-of-the-mill tailor. [[spoiler:It's actually his Goku Uniform.]]
61* LargeHam: Not normally, but when he activates his uniform he doesn't say its name, he screams it at the top of his lungs.
62* LongHairedPrettyBoy: He has long, wavy blonde hair in a loose ponytail down to his mid-back.
63* NonActionGuy: Even though he's a Two-Star [[spoiler:actually Three-Star]] student, he is literally the only plot-relevant student who doesn't actively participate in combat. [[spoiler:He does own a Three-Star Uniform which could presumably be used for combat, but his usefulness [[TheBlacksmith behind the front lines]] is likely superior to sending him fighting.]]
64* OddFriendship: Unlike the other club presidents, he speaks with the Elite Four on equal terms. It turns out to be because he's the nephew of Soroi, Satsuki's butler, [[spoiler:and he's also part of Satsuki's conspiracy to kill Ragyo and destroy REVOCS/COVERS]].
65* PerpetualFrowner: Even more so than Satsuki. He never smiles and sports an expression of eternal annoyance at the world around him. This changes in at the end.
66* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: His activated Goku Uniform is decorated in these colors, although [[spoiler:by the time he shows it, he's already working with Nudist Beach]].
67* SixthRanger: While not part of Satsuki's Elite Four, he's still associated with them in the manufacture of Goku Uniforms [[spoiler:and is the only non-Elite Four student in on Satsuki's rebellion, as well as having the privilege of wearing a Three-Star Uniform.]] As such, he's implied to be at the same level as the Elite Four in all but name.
68* SpiderLimbs: His activated Goku Uniform features four additional appendages to assist his sewing.
69* StoicSpectacles: He's a PerpetualFrowner who won't even smile when thanking someone for saving his life.
70* ThemeNaming: The second character of his surname means "to knit", while the first character of his given name means "thread".
71* TransformationSequence: He gets a brief one when changing into [[spoiler:his Three-Star Uniform]].
72* TheUnfought: Despite being a member of Satsuki's inner circle [[spoiler:and a Three-Star student]], he's never fought by Ryuko. Considering that he's a NonActionGuy, this is a given.
73* UtilityMagic: While most Goku uniforms are designed for combat, Iori's three-star uniform -- Tailor's Regalia -- is designed to create Goku uniforms at an accelerated pace.

77!!Takaharu Fukuroda
78!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MitsuoIwata (Japanese), Creator/BenDiskin (English)
79[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/takaharu_fukuroda_anime.png]]
80
81->''"To boxers, these gloves and trunks are our uniform!"''
82
83The Boxing Club Captain. His Two-Star Goku Uniform gives his boxing gloves the strength of steel.
84----
85* BadassLongcoat: Worn alongside his boxing attire.
86* BoxingBattler: His entire gimmick.
87* CallingYourAttacks: Calls out his punches as if he were the ringside commentator of his own match:
88-->'''Takaharu''': ''[[LargeHam TEK!]] [[MegatonPunch KEN!]] [[NoIndoorVoice FUN!]] [[PunctuatedForEmphasis SAI!]]''
89* CombatTentacles: His left glove launches a stream of punches so rapid that it essentially functions as this.
90* CoolHelmet: Always wears protective headgear.
91* ExtremityExtremist: Subverted; he's more than happy to use kicks in a fight.
92* TheGlovesComeOff: When he's done playing around, he removes his right glove, revealing a huge slab of steel that resembles a meat tenderizer.
93* {{Hypocrite}}: Accuses Ryuko of mocking boxing by wearing a {{Stripperiffic}} uniform to [[DistractedByTheSexy distract him in battle]]. His defending the sacrosanct spirit of the sport is soon revealed to be a complete bull when it turns out his boxing glove is there to hide his metal PowerFist.
94* LargeHam: He gets a bit too excited when detailing the powers of his "''ATHLETICISM-AUGMENTING TWO-STAR GOKU UNIFORM!!!''"
95* MegatonPunch: He has this gloves or no gloves.
96* PintSizedPowerhouse: He's only slightly larger than Ryuko, yet he delivers a complete and utter smackdown on her.
97* PowerFist: His Two-Star uniform gives him this power.
98* PunnyName: In Japanese name order, "Fukuroda Takaharu" sounds similar to "''fukurodataki''", which means "to beat up by ganging up".
99* SignatureMove: ''Tekken Funsai'' (lit. "Iron Fist Smash").
100* SpamAttack: His left jab launches a stream of steel boxing gloves at his opponent.
101* StarterVillain: The first opponent in a Goku Uniform Ryuko faces after claiming Senketsu.
102* ThisIsADrill: His corkscrew punch attack makes his right hand glove spin. The effect is enough that it rips the cloak that Ryuko was wearing to cover up her uniform.
103* TheWorfBarrage: His final attack against Ryuko is a full-power punch without his glove on... and it doesn't even scratch her.
104* WouldHitAGirl: A particularly egregious case as the very first thing he does is deck Ryuko with a boxing glove twice the size as her entire body.
105* WakeUpCallBoss: He's the first ''real'' opponent Ryuko faces that isn't a RedShirt and lays quite the beatdown on her before she gets Senketsu and returns the favor.

108[[folder:Omiko Hakodate]]
109!!Omiko Hakodate
110!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ChiakiTakahashi (Japanese), Creator/KarenStrassman (English)

112
113->''"Our rule is that anyone who fails to come to practice will suffer the 110 Million Cannonball Serves."''
114
115The Tennis Club Captain. Her Two-Star Goku uniform comes with a menacingly large tennis racket.
116----
117* BetweenMyLegs: The audience's first look at her Two-Star uniform, with her skirt packed with tennis balls.
118* DarkActionGirl: Omiko is the first female club president that Ryuko faces, and an arrogant brute if there ever was one.
119* FangsAreEvil: She bares her fangs a lot and only when she wants to kick some ass.
120* GirlishPigtails: She wears her hair in high pigtails. Most likely a tribute to Gamia from ''Anime/MazingerZ''.
121* GogglesDoSomethingUnusual: Has multiples lenses, one of which is telescopic.
122* ImplausibleHairColor: Despite being full Japanese, Omiko has blond hair.
123* ImprobableWeaponUser: Uses a giant steel spiked tennis racket in combat.
124* LightIsNotGood: She has blond hair, but she is also one of the villains in the series.
125* MakingASpectacleOfYourself: She wears a huge one-sided, interchangeable aiming lens for precise hits.
126* MinidressOfPower: Her Goku Uniform, befitting a tennis player, and with a skirt made of balls no less.
127* MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily: Those shark teeth of hers sure do seem evocative of Viral from ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann''.
128* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Her name sounds similar to the famous Japanese tennis star, Kimiko Date-Krumm.
129* TheOnlyOne: Omiko muses that, on the tennis court, the only person one can rely on is one's self.
130* SadistTeacher: Club Captain in this case as she has the entire tennis team pelt Mako with tennis balls as punishment for not attending team practice. What's more is she knows Mako was being held hostage just to lure out Ryuko, but she still counts it against her because it happened without her permission.
131* SlasherSmile: Her default expression, given her [[MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily pointy teeth]].
132* SpamAttack: Her 110 Million Serve, which fires many, ''many'' tennis balls at the target's face.

135[[folder:Maiko Ogure]]
136!!Maiko Ogure
137!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MarinaInoue (Japanese), Creator/DorothyEliasFahn (English)
138[[quoteright:232:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/maiko_ogure.png]]

141
142->''"I want to show them that even No-Stars have their pride!"''
143
144Ryuko and Mako's classmate, an injured No-Star student who they help on No-Late Day. In truth, she is the Head of Trap Development for the Disciplinary Committee, who plots to steal Senketsu for her own ends.
145----
146* AintTooProudToBeg: In episode 4, [[spoiler:after Maiko tries to use Senketsu, she finds that she is unable to move, and once Ryuko sees this and starts gearing up to attack her, she immediately shifts her mood and tries begging for mercy. It doesn't work.]]
147** Goes double for after Gamagori catches her red-handed discussing her plans to overthrow Satsuki with herself, initially being in TranquilFury mode as he voices his contempt with her stupidity thinking she could try to overthrow Lady Satsuki with him around to protect her. Maiko meekly pleads for forgiveness, but...
148---> '''Gamagori: NEVER!!! YOU'RE EXPELLED!!!'''
149* BackForTheFinale: Surprisingly, she can vaguely be made out in the background alongside a few club presidents.
150* BadassDriver: She can drive a turret-mounted armored bus like nobody's business.
151* BadassNormal: For a No-Star student, she can be awesome.
152* BespectacledCutie: Her NerdGlasses provide a good amount of cute vulnerability to her appearance. Turns out she's invoking this as TheFakeCutie to trick Ryuko into letting her guard down, and switches to fully exhibiting FourEyesZeroSoul with plenty of ScaryShinyGlasses scenes once her cover is blown.
153* BetterToDieThanBeKilled: Hilariously subverted; she throws herself off a highly elevated rolling platform after setting off one last trap for Ryuko, claiming she'll at least die with her dignity as a member of the Disciplinary Committee intact, only to open a parachute at the last second.
154* BigBadWannabe: She had a pretty solid plan to get Senketsu from Ryuko, which she actually succeeds in. Unfortunately for her, this is all she's able to accomplish, as Senketsu rejects her, which leads to Ryuko [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown promptly kick her ass]] and is subsequently expelled from Honnouji Academy by Gamagoori.
155* BitchInSheepsClothing: Pretends to be a nice, modest girl to gain Ryuko's trust in order to steal Senketsu.
156* CardCarryingVillain: Once she stops her nice girl façade.
157* TheChosenWannabe: She puts on Senketsu and easily activates his power. However, just because she is shameless enough to master the skimpy power of Senketsu within seconds, that doesn't mean that Senketsu will let her use him for her personal gain.
158* ContrivedClumsiness: Clumsily falls into Ryuko repeatedly while they're trying to get back to Honnouji Academy, constantly causing the Mankanshoku family to be DistractedByTheSexy and screwing up their attempts to give Ryuko her uniform. [[spoiler:Yeah, that was ''exactly'' the plan.]]
159* CustomUniform: Subverted; despite being a club president, she's a No-Star like Mako. This is probably intended so that she can better blend in with the crowd since part of her role is to lure the students into her traps.
160* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: "[[EvilIsHammy CHIKARA-POWER!"]][[note]]"Chikara" already means "power", so she's basically saying "Power-Power". One fansubbing group, and later the official dub, created the word "''[[BreadEggsBreadedEggs stre]]''[[BreadEggsBreadedEggs power]]" (The strength! The power!!) to convey the redundancy.[[/note]]
161* {{Determinator}}: Big time, even after she thrashed for talking big to ''[[BullyingADragon Ryuko]]'' and her plans fall through, she still tries her hardest to get her expelled. [[spoiler:And that's not getting into her willfully defying Gamagoori's word to get back at Ryuko alongside Fukuroda and Hakodate, [[VillainRespect an action that noticeably]] ''[[VillainRespect impresses]]'' [[VillainRespect Satsuki]] in the first Drama CD.]]
162* DidntSeeThatComing: Successfully manages to put on Senketsu, but fails to realize that the only one he'll ever let use him is Ryuko.
163* EvilIsHammy: As soon as she reveals her true nature, she really cuts loose.
164* EvilLaugh: She has a very distinct NoblewomansLaugh.
165* FalseFriend: Acts as Ryuko's friend just so she can get her hands on Senketsu.
166* HandicappedBadass: She does all this with her arm in a cast! Except the "handicapped" part is fake.
167* IWillOnlySlowYouDown: In episode 4, Maiko tells this to Mako and Ryuko once Mako suggests to bring her with them since she broke her arm on the first No-Late Day trap. The pain ends up overwhelming her, and Ryuko brings her along anyway. She [[EvilAllAlong turns out]] to be a [[TheMole mole]].
168* KickTheDog: Literally does this to Guts when he tries to return Senketsu to Ryuko.
169* LaserGuidedKarma: Once she thinks she's gotten away after setting one final trap for Ryuko, Gamagoori promptly and justly expels her from Honnouji Academy.
170* ManipulativeBitch: Her "injured schoolgirl" act has Ryuko and Mako totally fooled while she plots to steal Senketsu at the right moment.
171* MasterOfDisguise: In the first Drama CD, [[spoiler:she replaces Mako and manages to flawlessly fool Ryuko again just long enough to try for a second attempt]].
172* TheMillstone: On top of dragging Ryuko down, she accidentally pulls down her pants whenever Mako's family (carrying Senketsu) catches up with her, causing them to crash while [[DistractedByTheSexy distracted]]. It is later revealed that this was intentional.
173* TheMole: Her job entails going undercover as an ordinary student and setting up traps based on their behavior.
174* NerdGlasses: She wears glasses and is the genius TrapMaster of the Disciplinar Committee.
175* NoblewomansLaugh: [[EvilLaugh KYAHOHOHOHO!]]
176* OhCrap: Has one when she realizes Gamagori overheard everything she just said about her plans with overthrowing Satsuki, complete with him being [[RightBehindYou right beside her]], and his eyes and stars on his Goku Uniform [[RedEyesTakeWarning glowing a furious red]].
177* RedEyesTakeWarning: It's the first tell-tale sign she's really no good.
178* RedHerring: During her debut episode, she does her best to look like the second best friend to Ryuko and Mako, even reaching the school's gates and taking a commemorative [=BFFs=] photo. You just know the writer was toying around with this the moment said photo is destroyed.
179* {{Revenge}}: [[spoiler:Her main objective in the first Drama CD, alongside Fukuroda and Hakodate, after her humiliation from Ryuko.]]
180* ScaryShinyGlasses: A staple of hers once she shows her true colors.
181* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Lampshaded by Senketsu; she has absolutely no shame, which is why she can wear him so easily.
182* SmugSnake: She thinks she could have overthrown Satsuki had her plan succeeded. One has to wonder where all this self-confidence comes from.
183* TheStarscream: After growing sick and tired of her job, she concocts a plan to overthrow Satsuki as Student Council President using Senketsu. Once her treachery is exposed, Gamagoori expels her for good.
184* ThemeNaming: "Mai" is a kind of linen robe.
185* TrapMaster: Helped build an entire ''amusement park'' of traps throughout the city.
186* WoundedGazelleGambit: She fakes an arm injury to get Ryuko to take pity on her and help her.

198->''"Now we're going to have revenge for what you did on the terrace."''
199
200The Terrace and Backyard General Managers of the Gardening Club, respectively.
201----
202* CannonFodder: Jakuzure only sends Uwabami out to test Ryuko and Tsumugu.
203* DisproportionateRetribution: Yaguruma tries to kill Tsumugu because he trampled his club's flower beds.
204* {{Gonk}}: Both of them have huge noses and buckteeth.
205* GreenThumb: By adding water to the flower pot on his back, Yaguruma can grow giant [[ManEatingPlant Man-Eating Plants]] in seconds. Uwabami can presumably do the same, [[WeHardlyKnewYe not that we get to see it]].
206* ImprobableWeaponUser: Their weapons are watering pots.
207* ManEatingPlant: Can grow these from the planter on their backs.
208* MeaningfulName: The "kusa" character in both their names means "grass".
209* RedBaron: "Squint-eyed" Kusatao; he's even listed in the credits as such.
210* {{Revenge}}: Kusatao takes on Tsumugu to avenge Yaguruma.
211* SeriousBusiness: Their club's flower beds, considering Yaguruma tried to kill Tsumugu over them.
212* SinisterShades: Yaguruma (above) wears these.
213* StealthClothes: Even though the handkerchiefs they wear on their heads can be commonly found amongst Japanese agricultural fashion to prevent sunburn and block excess sweat, it's hard not to notice them being insidious individuals.
214* WeHardlyKnewYe: Yaguruma's introduction and defeat take place in the same scene. But that's nothing compared to Uwabami, who only gets one line and no fight scene before he's taken out.

There are several others that are unnamed.
223----
224* {{Acrofatic}}: Masuyo Watari. She has to be by default if an overweight student like her is The Tightrope Walking Club's president.
225* BreathWeapon: Aizenbo Fuguhara, the Ping Pong Club President, can [[PlayingWithFire breathe fire]] by drinking gasoline.
226* BodyHorror: The nameless Biology Club President's two-star uniform removes all the skin on the left half of his body, making him resemble an anatomical mannequin. The one-star members of the same club have their brains exposed, and their faces lack skin or muscle on one side. Fortunately, they're blink and you'll miss it.
227* CannonFodder: Like Uwabami, Jakuzure sends the presidents of the Rakugo and 100 Poems Clubs to gauge Ryuko and Tsumugu's abilities.
228* CombatTentacles: Kagesaburo Kagero, who uses Nanjing Lilies to this effect.
229* DanceBattler: Maimu Okurahama, the Folk Dancing Club President.
230* DegradedBoss: The last couple club presidents actually gave Ryuko quite a challenge. These guys? [[CurbStompBattle Taken out in a Ryuko-winning montage.]]
231* DishingOutDirt: The power of the Three Touki Brothers of the Pottery, Arts, and Crafts Club, who can control clay.
232* DrivesLikeCrazy: Ryosuke Todoroki of the Automotive Airsoft Club, whose Goku Uniform is also his car.
233* {{Expy}}: Jack Naito seems to be one of [[WesternAnimation/{{Superjail}} Jackknife]].
234* FlamingHair: Todoroki's hair is a glowing red flame, or at least resembles one.
235* FlechetteStorm: Jack Naito's attacks.
236* ImprobableWeaponUser: Razor pillows, poetry cards, ping-pong balls, origami cranes, etc. Some of these guys have some ''really'' weird arsenals.
237* MeaningfulName: Each character in Todoroki's name contains the radical for "car".
238* NoNameGiven: The Biology Club President is the only unnamed club president who gets any speaking lines.
239* PaperMaster: Tatamu Otte, the Origami Club President. [[WeHardlyKnewYe Presumably]].
240* {{Stripperiffic}}: The only thing covering Aizenbo Fuguhara's breasts are a pair of ping pong paddles.
241* VillainousHarlequin: Tightrope Walking Club President Masuyo Watari dresses like a clown.
242* WeHardlyKnewYe: They're lucky to get even ''two'' lines of dialogue before Ryuko strips them. Hell, one of them doesn't even get to announce their ''name'' before getting taken out.

251
252A No-Star student and former member of the Newspaper Club, suspended from Honnouji Academy after trying to start an insurrection against Satsuki through the school paper.
253----
254* AmusingInjuries: His beatdowns from the Disciplinary Committee are quite comical.
255* BadassNormal: He's a No-Star student, yet he's willing to face down hulking One-Stars if it means taking down the system.
256* ChasteHero: [[ExaggeratedTrope Played to ridiculous extremes]] when he nonchalantly emerges from a bathroom stall to speak to Mako ''in the girl's room''. [[spoiler:It's a subtle hint that he himself is actually [[SweetPollyOliver a girl in disguise]].]]
257* {{Determinator}}: Even while held down and beaten to a pulp by a gang of brutish thugs, he fiercely refuses to stay down until he gets Ryuko's attention. It turns out it's because [[spoiler:[[ImplacableMan they couldn't really have hurt him anyway.]]]]
258* DissonantSerenity: He becomes quite serene and creepy moments before revealing [[spoiler:his true identity]].
259* {{Foreshadowing}}: When he's introduced, the BossSubtitles are black instead of red. [[spoiler:Implying that it's not his real name at all.]] He also mentions Satsuki had banned him from school recently. [[spoiler:Satsuki forbid "him" from entering the school grounds after Nui messed with her plans.]]
260* GlamourFailure: The reason his hair covers his left eye is to hide [[spoiler: Nui's trademark eyepatch.]]
261* HidingBehindYourBangs: His left eye is covered by his hair. [[spoiler:It's to hide the fact that it's missing due to GlamourFailure.]]
262* HotBlooded: He ''slams'' his cup down on the tray when having a meal with Ryuko and Mako, then goes on to [[PercussiveTherapy pound the floor repeatedly]], spilling everyone else's tea.
263* LargeHam: Shinjiro does not speak, he SHOUTS.
264* MarionetteMaster: Those thuggish One-Star students who keep trying to silence him [[spoiler:are actually giant marionettes "he" controls using Life Fibers.]]
265* MeaningfulName: "Shinjiro" sounds a lot like "''shinjiru''", the Japanese verb meaning "to trust". [[IronicName Ironically]], [[spoiler:it's to further emphasize Nui's deception of Mako and Ryuko]].
266* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: One of the first lines out of his mouth is "I'm not a suspicious person".
267* VoiceOfTheResistance: He uses his papers to put together his own [[LaResistance resistance]] against the Student Council.
268* WalkingSpoiler: In case the blanked out entries didn't tip you off, he [[spoiler:is really Nui in disguise]].
269* WideEyedIdealist: He cherishes freedom of speech in a world oppressed by Satsuki, and is passionate in his belief that Ryuko can save their school, which has gotten him in trouble with the Student Council many times.
270* WoundedGazelleGambit: His helpless fight against the Student Council is part of an elaborate gambit to [[spoiler:get Ryuko to take pity on him and put Senketsu on again]].

274!!Suzuki
275!!!'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ChihiroSuzuki (Japanese), Creator/SamRiegel (English)
276
277A No-Star student who steals a one-star Goku uniform in the first episode.
278----
279* BullyingADragon: He gets so emboldened by the power of his stolen one-star Goku uniform that he tries to fight Gamagoori mano-a-mano. Unfortunately for him, not only is Gamagoori physically superior to him in every way ''without'' a Goku uniform, Gamagoori's is a ''three-star''. Suzuki [[PunchPunchPunchUhOh barely has time to realize his mistake]] before Gamagoori tears him to shreds.
280* ConvenientlySeated: He originally sat right next to Mako. Thanks to his death, that seat becomes open for Ryuko.
281* CurbStompBattle: Once Gamagoori stops messing with him.
282* DeadGuyOnDisplay: His body was strung up naked in one of the school's primary hallways with a sign warning other students of the dangers of trifling with the Student Council. It currently provides the page image.
283* DecoyProtagonist: Think he’s the main protagonist because he’s the focus of the opening moments? Nope! He’s quickly killed off and we’re introduced to Ryuko, our ''real'' hero.
284* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: His brutal death at the hands of the Student Council demonstrates the tyrannical control they hold over the school, but doesn't really jive with the way they treat the student body for the rest of the series.
285* NoNameGiven: We never learn his last name, and likely never will.
