Introduced in Super Dimension

    Jade 

Jade

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Jade_5224.png

Voiced by: Unknown (Japanese), Sam Riegel (English)

A Guild Member who resides in Leanbox and the adoptive son of Turquoise.


  • Adapted Out: Is omitted in the remake alongside Chevre and Turquiose.
  • Death as Comedy: His fate at the hands of Neptune, after he admits the reason why he doesn't follow Green Heart.
    Jade: I'm a member of the Guild. I live on Leanbox, but I don't follow Lady Green Heart...
    Neptune: ...Why're you telling me now? What's up with this?
    *grack*
    IF: ...And that's that. You finished him off.
    Neptune: Oops. Well, that was for ruining the moment.
  • Great Escape: Breaks IF, Compa, and Neptune out of the prison they're in.
  • The Faceless: Standard as an NPC, his face - and entire body for that matter - is obscured through a black silhouette.
    Chian 

Chian

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/chian_1.png

Voiced by: Unknown (Japanese), Michelle Ruff (English)

A Lastation blacksmith competing against the corporation Avenir.


  • The Blacksmith: Her storyline quests in the Lastation chapter involve you testing her "Armas" swords. She takes the test swords back though.
  • Punny Name: Chian looks a lot like Cyan and sounds the same. Now look at her hair colour.

    Ganache 

Ganache

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ganache.png

Voiced by: Unknown (Japanese), Liam O'Brien (English, first game), Sam Riegel (English, Re;Birth1)

Founder of Avenir and the primary face of the corporation.


  • Broken Pedestal: Played a bit more seriously than IF's, but still for laughs. He doesn't take the fact that Lady White Heart he reveres is actually quite foul-mouthed, to the level of severe denial when presented with the fact (and with Blanc actually being there).
  • Composite Character: His Re;Birth1 incarnation is a combination of himself and Jade from the original game. Like the original Ganache, he's a corrupt businessman who is the main antagonist of the gang's adventures in Lastation and often stays one step ahead of them. However, he worships Lady White Heart instead of the goddess of his land, much like Jade.
  • Corrupt Corporate Executive: He's evil, works for Arfoire, and uses ruthless methods to keep Avenir in business.
  • The Chessmaster:
    • In the original game during the Lastation arc, Ganache himself states he's manipulated everything from the start up the the current point, from the moment he heard of the Console War.
    • In Re;Birth1, he knows you were aiding his rival Chian and spying on Avenir by taking their quests. On one of those quests, he traps you in a heavily monster-infested facility to presumably kill you all off, though in the end, the party escapes successfully. The party suddenly realizes that he was stalling you all along as he launched an assault on Chian.
    • IF's contact informs your part that Lowee's Basilicom is getting weapons from Avenir, and thus you locate the Killachine Factory in Avenir No.2 Storage Facility. Inside, you find out that Ganache has a Killachine waiting for you, leading to a battle. After defeating it, Ganache shows you that it's just the first of many. Thankfully, MAGES. destroys the rest of the line and you only need to fight one last battle before leaving the factory. Turns out that was just a decoy. He fed the info to IF's contact as a distraction and while you were busy fighting his Killachines, Arfoire launched an assault against your allies at Blanc's rebel base.
  • The Dragon: For much of the game, he works directly under Arfoire.
  • Enemy Mine: When his back is seriously to the wall. He helps the heroines stop the CPU Breaker when it goes berserk, but only because it would probably kill him too if he didn't.
  • Genre Savvy: When Arfoire shows up to make a deal in the first game, he knows not to trust her automatically.
  • Hostage Situation: In the first game, he conjures up something of the like for the Tech Expo, to make sure Neptune and her party go there quickly.
  • Heel–Face Turn: In the ending, after Avenir is taken over by Noire. He also proves to be a VERY capable assistant.
  • Ignored Expert: Both Arfoire and Singe ignore his warning of using the untested CPU Breaker. In the end, he's right.
  • In-Series Nickname: Solicitor (IF) or "Mr." Solicitor (Compa).
  • Jerkass: He assigns the task of finding a rare ore to the party, and confines them in an abandoned building set to explode. Afterwards it turns out that was only a diversion, as stated by IF when Chian's factory is being sieged by Avenir robots.
  • Loving a Shadow: He refuses to believe that his beloved White Heart is really a potty mouth and follows the impostor instead. He comes to terms with this in the ending and follows Noire instead.
  • Shoot the Hostage: In the first game, he outright says something regrettable will happen to the Expo attendees if Neptune and her party don't go there quickly.

    Singe 

Singe

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/singe.png

Voiced by: Unknown (Japanese), Jamieson Price (English)

One of the chairmen for Avenir.


  • The Blacksmith: He's a very skilled craftsman to the point of being able to forge Noire's legendary sword from the remains of a revolver.
  • Heel–Face Turn: After he got booted off Avenir, he became a craftsman for Chian. He's apparently one of the best out there, having enough skill to craft a new sword from the remains of a revolver. The same legendary revolver used by ancient heroes to destroy the corrupted goddess.

    Yvoire 

Yvoire

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/yvoire.png

Voiced by: Unknown (Japanese), Patrick Seitz (English)

Vert's chamberlain, reduced to doing all the work while she plays games.


  • Accidental Misnaming: A victim of this at the hands of Neptune and Compa, successively: They mishear his name as Eviler and then Evilest, similar to how people at Lastation's Basilicom and Compa herself couldn't pin down Neptune's name and Noire's name took some time for Neptune to say correctly.
  • Adaptational Heroism: While he retains his basic role from the original game where he is also manipulated by Conversation, in Re;Birth1 he's not as villainous as in the original game and is even more of a victim of Conversation's evil schemes. In the original, he was motivated to increase Leanbox's power, even if he had to kill Neptune to weaken Planeptune. In Re;Birth1, he's tricked by Conversation into believing that Neptune is a Messenger of Overlord Momus after seeing a false proof.
  • Cassandra Truth: He doesn't first want to believe that the Power Trio are Messengers of Overlord Momus. Conversation has to make a fake proof to convince him.
  • Corrupt Church: In the original game, he is the leader of the church and has tried to get IF to poison Neptune, went ahead and did it himself, and then arrested all three girls as "criminals". Jade later goes into more detail about Yvoire, going on about how he destroyed any documents pertaining to the purge of the Guild, refusing to acknowledge the atrocities committed.
  • Noodle Incident: The way Vert "asked" him to apologize after all the trouble he caused.
  • Punny Name: Yvoire looks a lot like Ivory. And again, look at his hair colour.
  • Unwitting Pawn: He poisons and imprisons Neptune for spreading Momus worship and Enemy Discs, not knowing that Arfoire/Conversation was behind it.
  • Well-Intentioned Extremist: Is very willing to do questionable things for Lady Green Heart, without her knowledge. Including making IF a citizen if she poisons Neptune (he when he thought that they're Momus evangelists), and threatening to get rid of them as "suspicious" persons if IF doesn't agree. He poisons Neptune himself.

    Ran-Ran 

Ran-Ran

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ranran_6.png

A pig (wo?)man who Vert uses for spying and basic assistance.


  • Ascended Extra: Originally just a name mentioned in some quests, Ran-Ran has become Vert's personal assistant and pet.
  • Big Damn Heroes: When Vert, Purple Heart and the others are in trouble against Arfoire, Ran-Ran snatches Vert's goddess power from the villain when Arfoire is about to steal Purple Heart's power.
  • Canon Foreigner: She's exclusive to Re;Birth1, despite not having a narrative counterpart in the original game.
  • Gonk: While presumably mostly human, her portrait has a pig mask over her face.
  • Japanese Ranguage: It's spelled Ran-Ran, but it's pronounced "Rlan Rlan" or "Lan-Lan," even in the English game.
  • Little Miss Snarker: In one blink-and-you-miss-it moment, when stalling Conversation/Arfoire so the party can catch up to her, Ran Ran calls her an old lady, this gem takes place:
    Conversation: Who are you calling an old lady!?
    Ran-Ran: (Žω`)o(MIRROR)
  • Spanner in the Works: Arfoire certainly didn't expect her snatching back Vert's HDD powers. Were it not for that, the party would have definitely been finished off.
  • Third-Person Person: Refers to herself by her name.
  • Undying Loyalty: Towards Vert, who adopted her when she arrived to Leanbox. She's been very devoted to Vert ever since.

    Financier 

Financier

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/financier1.png

Voiced by: Teramoto Haruko (Japanese), Stephanie Sheh (English)

Blanc's right hand woman who helps out the party in Lowee.


  • Batman Gambit: Purposefully pushes Blanc's Berserk Button (bringing up her novels without permission and mentioning how poor her writing is) to differentiate her from the imposter.
  • Meido: She is a cute maid.
  • You Are Better Than You Think You Are: Her Hyperdimension portrayal manages to talk C-Sha out of her misanthropy and into helping Blanc protect Lowee from monsters by convincing her that its citizens will give her a chance if she explains her circumstances.

    The Brothers 

Older Brother & Younger Brother

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/older_brother.png
Older Brother

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/younger_brother.png
Younger Brother

Older Brother is voiced by: Unknown (Japanese), Jamieson Price (English)
Younger Brother is voiced by: Unknown (Japanese), Sam Riegel (English)

A pair of perverted brothers obsessed with big breasts.


  • Ascended Extra: Originally a pair of side characters for NISA's events, and mentioned in a few quests, the Brothers are now assistants of Blanc's and, later, Vert's.
  • Asshole Victim: Lovable Sex Maniacs they may be, they had coming every single punishment they suffer in the game, and it's hilarious no matter what it is.
  • Buxom Beauty Standard: Their philosophy, causing them to follow Vert because of her big breasts.
  • Chivalrous Pervert: Both of them, although Older Brother is more gentlemanly than the more passionate Younger Brother.
  • Cool and Unusual Punishment: As punishment for fooling around with the Fake Green Heart, the Brothers are made to assist Vert in clearing her gaming backlog. Or as Vert puts it, they get "saturated in BL". Older Brother breaks quickly, and starts trying to seduce Younger Brother before the scene cuts away.
  • Heel–Face Revolving Door: The Brothers' exact allegiance is based on the bust size of whoever is in question. This leads to a scene where they end up betraying Blanc to Arfoire, only to promptly betray her once Vert shows up not even a minute later. And then betraying Vert to the Fake Green Heart, and back to Vert after the Cool and Unusual Punishment above.
  • Lovable Sex Maniac: The entire basis of their character. They are absolutely loyal to those with the greatest bust size, and thus at a certain point in the story, they move to Leanbox for Vert. While there, they do some.... hilariously questionable things in Vert's empty room. Vert immediately activates HDD and returns to Leanbox to "destroy some unwanted intruders."
    Neptune: "Later, we hear screams of agony from the cell that Vert left behind..."
  • Only Known by Their Nickname: For once, the given names aren't the actual names after IF lampshades their ridiculous introduction; they just go by these pseudonyms. Of course, considering how easily the goddesses present themselves by their human names, they're fairly useless fake names.

Introduced in Hyper Dimension

    Umio 

Umio

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/umio.png

"Uzume, I am relieved to hear your voice. We're roughly 70% complete with evacuation."
Voiced by: Show Hayami (Japanese), Xander Mobus (English)

A odd-looking fish with a comically serious humanoid face contrasted by his suave voice, who seems perfectly capable of breathing air. He is Uzume's closest friend, helping her manage the Zero Dimension's survivors while she takes on the Dark CPUs.


  • Cool Board: His Limit Break has him riding one with Uzume's picture on it. The extended version has him smacking the board towards his enemy.
  • Does Not Like Spam: He doesn't like eating freshwater fish, due to the implications of cannibalism.
  • Downloadable Content: Becomes playable with DLC in VII. Which also makes him the first playable male in the Neptunia series.
  • Emergency Food Supply Animal: The credits label him as Uzume's emergency rations. She once considers using his eggs to make pudding before he hastily reminds her that he's male and doesn't have any eggs. C-Sha wonders how he'd taste upon first seeing him. Older Neptune also said that she'd sooner eat him than taste another eggplant, and later insists on grilling him to reinstate herself and her counterpart as the protagonists after feeling that his backstory with Uzume will overshadow them.
  • Eye Beams: His Freezing Beam attack.
  • Fantastic Arousal: His dorsal fin can used as a radar, and is quite sensitive to the touch. He lets out several sensual moans while letting Vert stroke it.
  • New Powers as the Plot Demands: His dorsal fin became a radar sometime after the Zero Dimension arc. He claims that fish are constantly evolving.
  • No Infantile Amnesia: He claims that he can remember everything since he hatched from his egg, but nothing about his past life as a human.
  • Non-Human Sidekick: He's a floating fish with a face of a man, who is also Uzume's friend before she met Neptune and Nepgear.
  • Reincarnation: He's actually a youth volunteer for Planeptune's Basilicom.
  • Subordinate Excuse: It's implied in the past back when he was human he was romantically in love with Uzume. Even in the present, one of his bonus clips has him, in response to a question of whether he loves Uzume, say that his feelings for her have long transcended such words.
  • Undying Loyalty: Is heavily devoted to Uzume. This extends to back when he was a human as well.
  • Vocal Dissonance: Neptune and Nepgear notes that he sounds like a sexy gentleman, but they're bewildered when they see a fish with a human face.
  • Was Once a Man: He was once Uzume's loyal supporter who sacrificed himself to save her from assassination by Planeptune Extremists.
  • Zerg Rush: One of his attacks allows him to call all of the monster citizens of Zero Dimension to rush at the enemy.

    Nepgya 

Nepgya

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nepgya_full_body_render___ripped_hires_9.png

"Nice to meet you. I'm Nepgya! I'm a compatible character who was born from Nepgear's funny face components! Please take care of both me and Nepgear."
Voiced by: Yui Horie (Japanese), Christine Marie Cabanos

An artificial human based on Nepgear, specifically her "shocked" expression, who became a real person thanks to the faith of polling readers. She's not exactly someone you should take seriously.


  • Artificial Human: She's one for Nepgear. Notably, she's not a robot or monster, but a being given form thanks to faith (fan voices).
  • Canon Foreigner: She originated from a Yonkoma as a gag about Nepgear's shocked facial expression that slowly rose in prominence. A fan poll voted to make her an actual character separate from Nepgear.
  • Downloadable Content: Becomes playable with DLC for Megadimension Neptunia VII, which uniquely makes her the first character to originate from outside the games before becoming playable.
  • Frozen Face: Downplayed, in that Nepgya's default face almost never changes, but she does have different facial expressions such as removing the sweat drops and moving her mouth. The oval-shaped wide eyes don't change, however.
  • Machine Monotone: While she can put some emotion into her voice, her default is a calm robotic tone to emphasize her artificial nature.
  • Moveset Clone: In VII, fittingly enough, she plays like Nepgear minus HDD, up to possessing all her SP Skills and the ability to equip any of Nepgear's unique weapons, armors, and accessories aside from, ironically, Nepgear's exclusive DLC items.
  • Nice Girl: Similar to Nepgear herself, Nepgya doesn't seem to possess a mean bone in her body. In her bonus lines, her "rejection" line has her saying she can't denigrate someone and that if anyone should be denigrated, it should be her.

    Cheekama 

Cheekama

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cheekama.png

Voiced by: Ari Ozawa (Japanese)

A supporting character debuting alongside Million Arthur.


  • Fairy Companion: To Million Arthur.
  • The Voiceless: The only character to not have English speaking voice lines - both in cutscenes and in gameplay - and alongside Raw Meat is the only character to not have an English voice actress.

    Raw Meat 

Raw Meat

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/raw_meat_7.png

Voiced by: Yui Shoji (Japanese)

An animated piece of raw meat debuting alongside Nitroplus.


  • A Dog Named "Dog": A talking slice of raw meat appropriately named "Raw Meat".
  • Anthropomorphic Food: Despite being an uncooked slice of beef, she is capable of communication and has a personality.
  • The Voiceless: In the English dub, like Cheekama, she doesn't have any English dialogue.

    Abaddon 

Abaddon

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/abaddon_4.png

A monster referencing the Aragami of the same name debuting alongside with God Eater.


  • Big Eater: When he gets hungry (often from watching what he considers flirting between girls), he quickly devolves into this. Luckily (at least except for the girls' dignity), he's only usually interested in eating clothes.

    Fried Shrimp 

Fried Shrimp

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fried_shrimp.png

Uzume's crustacean-like monster friend, she is one of the remaining residents of the Zero Dimension following its destruction. She comes from a race of Baby Bugs, a group of crustacean-like beasts.


  • Nice Guy: Despite being from a race of creatures who serve as enemies to the playable heroines, Fried Shrimp has no bad-bone in her body and is heavily devoted to assisting her friend Uzume at all times.

    Chuuko 

Chuuko

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/chuko_9.png

"Being a woman means being courageous in the face of danger!"
Voiced by: Rie Murakawa (Japanese), Sandy Fox (English)

A female mouse who manages alone a secondhand shop in Planeptune. Possesses a considerable knowledge about retro games and can go into deep conversations about them with hardcore gamers like Neptune and Vert. Unlike Warechu the criminal, she conducts legitimate business.


  • Good Counterpart: To Warechu, in terms of business activities. Both are mice selling games, but while Warechu deals in illegal pirated games, Chuko runs a legitimate secondhand game shop.
  • Rescue Romance: After Warechu saves her from Kurome, she develops a crush on him and tries to help reform him into a law-abiding citizen.

    Dogoo Man & Lady 

Dogoo Man & Lady

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dogoo_man_render___hires_rip_9.png
Dogoo Man

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dogoo_lady.png
Dogoo Lady

Dogoo Man is voiced by: Shinjiro Sakurai (Japanese), Unknown (English)
Dogoo Lady is voiced by: Yui Shoji (Japanese), Marcy Edwards (English)

A pair of humanoid Dogoos serving S-Sha.


  • Butterface: They both have impressive figures, but Dogoos for faces.
  • Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?: Dogoo Man is the first to get a solid blow on Kurome. Even she's impressed by this.
  • The Fighting Narcissist: They're constantly bragging about their muscular and curvaceous figures, even in the middle of a fight.
  • Good with Numbers: Dogoo Man counts up 999,999 ran-pigs surprisingly quickly.
  • Locked Out of the Loop: They were unaware of Kurome's influence on S-Sha's decisions and believed their plans were all S-Sha's ideas alone. They only start to realize something is wrong when Vert directly asks them about those plans and E-Sha's disagreement with them.
  • Undying Loyalty: To S-Sha and E-Sha, whom they abide to her at every need.
  • Too Kinky to Torture: S-Sha uses Dogoo Man as a seat, but he enjoys feeling her butt on his back.
    Anri 

Anri

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/anri_neptunia.png

Voiced by: Natsumi ƌshita (Japanese), Jenny Yokobori (English)

A creator from the PC Continent. She is a calm and knowledgeable girl. Refugees who have evacuated to the continent where Nepgear and others are located in the wake of the incident that occurred on the continent. She's an optimistic guardian towards Maho, and she often thinks about her and pays attention to her. She is devoting her efforts to elucidating the Trendi Phenomenon.


  • Expy: Her appearance, as well as her Revenge Before Reason over her parents' deaths, resemble Origami Tobiichi.
  • Meaningful Name: The name "Anri" is derived from the first two letters of Android, the mobile operating system she takes inspiration from; and ringo, the Japanese equivalent to an apple, which she can be seen eating. Apple is also the name of the American tech-giant that Anri also takes inspiration from (namely the iOS).
  • Moe Anthropomorphism: Of mobile operating systems, specifically the Android and iOS. Her silver hair and translucent dress is a common color scheme used on Apple devices, with the emblem on her tie being based on the company's logo (albeit the apple is bitten on both sides instead of one), while a portion of her outfit is made up of light green highlights — a color commonly used on Android devices. Notably, she's the only character based on a real life product to not be a CPU or a Maker, instead being a normal human who serves as Maho's assistant (a reference to how Android is used on most non-iPhone mobile devices).
  • Mythology Gag: Her eating a green apple is a subtle reference to the Android Eating Apple image, which was used as a visualization of both OS' rivalry during their early years.
  • Powered Armor: She is an F2P, which is revealed to not be a robot enemy but a suit of armor, working with Arfoire for an opportunity for revenge oblivious to the fact that Arfoire is the one to blame not Grey Sister.
  • Promoted to Playable: Alongside Maho and Grey Sister, you can recruit Anri into battle with her weapons or in the Heartfelt Photo Mode in the Nintendo Switch port, something that was not accessible in the original PS4/PS5 port, despite having a 3D model in her boss fight.
  • Revenge Before Reason: She wants revenge against Grey Sister for destroying the tower where her parents worked in while they were still inside, and is willing to aid Arfoire to achieve that goal. When she learns that Maho is actually Grey Sister, she almost kills her closest friend despite her amnesia, but ultimately can't go through with it. The time-travelling Grey Sister later takes the blame.
  • Small Girl, Big Gun: When you fight Anri, she uses a bazooka that is twice the size as her.
  • Shout-Out: In addition to being an expy of Origami, her design takes several cues from Alice and Shina, as Nanameda Kei provided the base design for her.

    Ziri 

Ziri

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ziri.png

Voiced by: Anzu Haruno note  (Japanese), Anjali Kunapaneni (English)

A robot who serves Grey Sister.


  • Genius Loci: The friendly Maho, despite being the older version of the Grey Sister seen in most of the game, distinctly lacks a Ziri helping her. This is because after getting blasted back 12000 years by a temporal paradox she has spent the time continually upgrading herself into the massive underground laboratory seen in the beginning of the game in order to keep her in stasis until it's time to ambush the Arfoire that will later go back in time and to keep Nepgear and the others in stasis afterwards to keep them away from the current timeline's Arfoire when she is revived. She has also spent the last 12000 years calculating the temporal coordinates required to stop the initial activation of the IS Crystal that started this whole mess, and is able to send Nepgear back in time with Aneeta Job's help in the True Ending.
  • Reforged into a Minion: A heroic example. Nepgear and Maho captured one of ASIC's newest robot models and reprogrammed it with the N-Gear. She has been faithfully obeying Grey Sister for several time loops or over 12000 years ever since, depending on the Ziri, attempting to find a way to finally put an end to Arfoire.

    Aneeta Job 

Aneeta Job (Yamori Komori in Japanese)

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/aneeta_job.png

Voiced by: Erika Yoshizumi (Japanese), Unknown (English)

A VTuber who comforts Leanbox's citizens as the Trendi Outbreaks keep them locked up in their houses.


  • A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Or Benevolent A.I., depending on the point of view. Technically speaking she's a crapshoot as she's a rogue ASIC AI. It's just that she's decided to be a Vtuber in Leanbox, helping them cope with the Buzzoer Phenomenon, instead of bringing about the end of the world.
  • Dub Name Change: Her Japanese name is Yamori Komori.
  • Meaningful Name: Komori in this case meaning babysitter, as well as being short for Hikikomori. She takes care of the people of Leanbox quite well, but she also goes out of her way to make sure they're all shut-ins for their own safety.
  • Punny Name: Her English name comes from "I need a job".
