3	[[folder:Main Characters]]
4
5	!Seiji Takasugi
6	-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RicaMatsumoto
7
8	The protagonist and a boy in his fifth (later sixth) year of elementary school. He is chosen by the Earth to command the Brave Fighters and protect the planet from Ohboss's invasion.
9	----
10	* ChivalrousPervert: In the sense that he is very susceptible to feminine charm, and will act up to impress/protect them whenever possible. The only girls he doesn't do this with are Hikaru (whom he's known for too long and finds unfeminine) and Hotaru (as his opinion of her goes from "strange" to "the one who might be more aware of the situation than me").
11	* TheChosenOne: As mentioned above, he was chosen by the Earth to awaken and command its champions, the Braves.
12	* HeavySleeper: Seiji's got no less than ''five'' alarm clocks in his room, and the kid ''still'' has trouble getting up in the morning.
13	* HeroicBSOD: He frequently goes through these, such as when [[spoiler:when Sky Saber is almost killed by Seven Changer, or when Pink/Pinky are revealed to be working for Ohboss]].
14	* KidHero: Despite being a child, he is technically Da Garn's ''boss''. He also gets a suit that protects him.
15
16
17	!Hikaru Tosaka
18	-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SayuriYamauchi
19
20	The heroine and Seiji's neighbor. She lives next door to him and looks after him due to his family situation.
21	----
22	* AccidentalKiss: Yanchar ends up falling on top of her, causing them to lock lips, much to Seiji's amusement.
23	* ChildhoodFriends: She's lived next door to Seiji as they were growing up, and they frequently hang out.
24	* ClingyJealousGirl: She generally gets pretty upset whenever Seiji acts up around other girls (which is often, as he is one grade schooler who really likes the ladies).
25	** In episode 39, she seems almost insulted that he seems to be more unhappy about not being able to be able to see Hotaru than her (unaware that it's more of Hotaru being a very dependable ally).
26	* {{Tsundere}}: Best shown in episode 39, where she is blushing happily when it seems that Seiji is upset that he probably won't get to see her for a while, only to get angry when he rather rudely corrects her that he's mad about being powerless in regards to the invasion getting this far out of hand.
27
28	!Hotaru Sakurakoji
29	-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YuriShiratori
30
31	The other heroine and Seiji's classmate. She seems to be able to sense when the Earth is being disturbed.
32	----
33	* MysteriousWaif: Hotaru, a frail girl who seems to have the power to sense disturbances to Earth. While Seiji first regards her as just being strange, he comes to see her as something of comrade due to her powers, making her the closest thing he has to confident.
34	* TheReliableOne: Seiji comes to see her as this, as her warnings and advise, no matter how cryptic, always either makes him understand his job better, or makes him release a mistake he made.
35	* SecretSecretKeeper: She knew the [[spoiler:whole time that Seiji was the Brave Fighter's commander, but he doesn't find that out until Episode 36]].
36
37	!Yanchar
38	-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/UraraTakano
39
40	A wild-looking boy who is introduced trying to take Hotaru with him. He appears to be an orphan of some kind.
41	----
42	* AccidentalKiss: With Hikaru, which marks the beginning of a few events that can be mistaken as him trying to court her.
43	* OverlyLongName: His full name? "Yancharan Starlett Pannar Kuricius Jakkingar Wilder XIV." Yeah.
44	* SoleSurvivor: He [[spoiler:and Seven Changer are the only survivors of their home planet, which was destroyed by Ohboss]].

48	[[folder:Other Humans]]
49
50	!Tadashi Nemoto
51	-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/BinShimada
52
53	The local policeman who frequents the cafe run by the Tosaka family. His patrol car serves as Da Garn's vassal.
54	----
55	* ButtMonkey: Poor guy can never stop getting his patrol car "stolen."
56	* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: You'd never expect him to go head-to-head with a large group of Butcho's bio-mechanical rabbit monsters assaulting Hikaru and Hotaru, but he does and lasts a considerable while.
57	----
58
59	!Haruo and Tsukushi Tosaka
60	-->'''Voiced by:''' Yoshio Kawai and Yuuko Sasaki
61
62	Hikaru's parents who run an organic-food cafe. They tend to look after Seiji while his parents aren't around.

69	-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ReiIgarashi
70
71	Seiji's mother who works as a news anchor.
72	----
73	* ParentalSubstitute: She acts as one towards Yanchar. He definitely appreciates the sentiment, while Seiji most certainly does not.
74
75	!Koichiro Takasugi
76	-->'''Voiced by:''' Kazuhiko Kishino
77
78	Seiji's father and Misuzu's husband. He is a colonel in the military and is stationed in Australia.
79	----
80	* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He seems to be the only guy in the military who wants to cooperate with the Brave Fighters' Commander without trying anything underhanded.
81
82	[[/folder]]
83
84	[[folder:Brave Fighters]]
85
86	Guardian spirits tasked with protecting the Earth. Most of their spirits lie in the "Brave Stones," although a couple have been around for even longer, unknown to the others.
87

157
158	A blond, humanoid man dressed in red who serves as the first of the alien commanders.
159	----
160	* BloodKnight: His response to finding Earth can actually pose a threat to him is to smile and be happy there's something there worth fighting. Though he quickly becomes annoyed that he's losing to "unrefined, ugly robots."
161	* [[spoiler: {{Cyborg}}]]: His punishment for repeated failures.
162	* DiscOneFinalBoss: He is actually portrayed as the main villain for the first ten episodes, only for Ohboss to show himself to establish to the audience who the real mastermind is.

171	----
172	* AffectionateNickname: He gives these to his Armored Beasts, and they're all English names for women. [[spoiler:He also calls Hotaru "Geraldine," though this comes across more as [[TermsOfEndangerment mockery]] at first]].
173	* BitchInSheepsClothing: He pretends to be the friendly leader [[spoiler:of a traveling circus, when in reality he's a mean and green brute trying to steal the Planet Energy. [[HiddenDepths However]]...]]

175	* DontYouDarePityMe: In episode 20, Butcho reacts this way to Hotaru when she feels sorry for him. [[spoiler:It doesn't last, as the same episode also hinted at her becoming his MoralityPet]].
176	* FatBastard: He is noticeably portly and is a very nasty piece of work, hence the PunnyName. [[spoiler:At first]].
177	* {{Gonk}}: He's morbidly obese, bald, and has a huge nose.
178	* HeelFaceTurn: Thanks to [[spoiler:Hotaru]], he is able to accept the kindness in his heart, and joins Seiji's group]].
179	* HiddenDepths: His fondness for animals [[spoiler:hints that, deep down, he may not be that bad of a person]].

190	* BitchInSheepsClothing: [[spoiler:She pretends to be both "Magical Pinky," the star of the traveling circus, and her own "little sister" Pink Yamamoto, who cozies up to Seiji (especially as Pink),]] when in reality, she's arguably an even nastier piece of work than Butcho.
191	* BriarPatching: Violecche asks her what the worst thing that could happen to her could be [[spoiler:before punishing her accordingly. She lies about how she would hate to be forced into her child form.]]

202	* FireBreathingWeapon: His panther mode's attack.

204	* MacrossMissileMassacre: His griffin mode's attack.
205	* MeaningfulName: Has as many modes as his name suggests - a robot, a tank, a truck, a jet, a submarine, a panther, and a griffin.
206	* TheMole: [[spoiler:He's really a Brave Fighter from another planet commanded by Yancha, spying on Ohboss's plans in order to stop them.]] Sadly, because of his past actions to hide his motives, it takes a while for Earth's Brave Fighters to really trust him.
207	* PantheraAwesome: Has a panther mode.
208	* TankGoodness: One of his mode.
209
210	!Violecche

214	----
215	* AmbiguouslyGay: Aside from the aforementioned feminine speech patterns, he makes an offhand comment about Colonel Takasugi being handsome.
216	* CoDragons: Both he and Cyan seem to be portrayed as Ohboss's top ranked subordinates, though Cyan eventually outdoes him.
217	* FemaleFelineMaleMutt: While he is male, he has some feminine patterns of speech and assumes feline forms.
218	* InformedSpecies: His more monstrous form has a wolf-like appearance and more canine growls, though Violecche is only ever compared to a cat.
219	* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Largely derived from the word 'violence', and he's frighteningly competent compared to most of Ohboss's other officers.
220	* NoSenseOfPersonalSpace: He sees nothing weird in talking to Pinky when she's taking a bath.
221	* VoluntaryShapeshifting: He switches from the form of a regular cat, to a more humanoid form in a purple suit, to a more feral feline form.
222
223	!Cyan

225
226	The final and most fearsome of the alien commanders. He is a giant blue dragon that turns into a UFO.
227	----
228	* TheDragon: He is the only subordinate Ohboss really trusts, meaning he outdoes even his fellow [[CoDragons Co-Dragon]] Violecche. Bonus points for looking like a real dragon.
229	* MeaningfulName: While he's more of a deeper, darker blue than the lighter blue-green suggested by his name, that color is very similar to colors found on Drill Lander and Seven Changer. The toys for those two actually use cyan plastic in those places.
230	* OurDragonsAreDifferent: Has two wings and no legs, and a rather strangely shaped head with horn and tusks.
231

235	The entity who rules over the various alien commanders.

239	* EldritchAbomination: He takes the form of a ''freaking living storm'' whose face is formed from the lightning strikes and absolutely dwarfs his minions' entire ''ships''.
240	* ForTheEvulz: His reason for [[spoiler:destroying planets in search for the Power of Legend? '''Boredom''']].
