Cherylene
Portrayed by: Cherylene Chan
- Cute, but Cacophonic: She's cute all right, but her voice can be REALLY shrill, and it doesn't help that she's a Genki Girl.
- Deader than Dead: A variation without involving death (but expulsion is pretty similar in this verse). According to Kevin, she got it worse than Cleverly who was merely expelled and still allowed to attend boarding school. Judging from what was said from Diana, she's blacklisted from all educational platforms in Singapore, so she cannot enter any other schools, not even boarding schools, for educations and it's extremely unlikely that she could be rich enough to afford overseas studies.
- Forgotten Fallen Friend: To Vincent, who can't seem to remember her. Averted with the rest of the students.
- Genki Girl: By far, she's the genki-est girl of the whole Titan Academy.
- Girl Posse: She used to be part of Jasmine's clique and inherited some of her toxic attitudes, such as badmouthing Denise. As of late, however, she's been interacting less with Jasmine (getting her own running gag of being the shrill loud student, befriending Julynn), and as a result, she's no longer mean to Denise.
- Heroic Sacrifice: She rips up her own re-appeal letter which would have succeeded for her own sake, even when Regna is involved, and distracts Regna with her yelling. This results her being expelled and then also blacklisted from all schools in Singapore, while others, including Julynn, will return.
- The Hyena: She has a tendency to get into a giggling fit. It's sometimes infectious.
- Nice Girl: Despite being considered annoying in-universe, she is actually really sweet and friendly to everyone... just as long as Jasmine isn't around her, but it was only in the beginning, she's been independent from Jasmine afterwards.
- Running Gag: Repeatedly calling for her teacher's name, in her chipper voice, is basically one of her most known gags: "Miss Sherly! Miss Sherly! Miss Sherly! Miss Sherly! Miss Sherly! Miss Sherly! Miss Sherly!"
Hamza
Portrayed by: Hamza Zaidi
- Break-Up/Make-Up Scenario: Apparently, after Pei Shi showed her Bitch in Sheep's Clothing credentials, Hamza broke up with her. However, something happened during the interim of COVID-19 Pandemic that they patched up their relationship and became lovers again once they return to school.
- Disappointed in You: When Pei Shi bossed her group around and just played when the others 'work', there's an extra shot of Hamza looking disappointed: He's a team player, risks himself and his team getting caught together, and yet his girlfriend does THAT very selfish thing and also claims to 'stomp' on his team. Presumably, he temporarily broke up with her for that.
- Foil: Despite his short screen time, he manages to be the 'perfect boyfriend' that Ren Yi Xiang aspires to be, but unable to achieve:
- Hamza is very confident on himself, and having the good physique and sports capabilities to back it up. Ren Yi Xiang is not just a nerd, he's constantly plagued with self-doubts and tries to be something he isn't. He managed to at least try to match up with Hamza in general attitude without realizing thanks to the teachers' consultations, however, there are just some vital things he failed to emulate.
- Ren Yi Xiang ends up being a completely unforgiving boy and a Jerkass to One on Pei Shi when she slighted him with her 'cheating' and never acknowledges her attempt to mend their friendship. On the other hand, Hamza was also slighted by Pei Shi when she displayed her Bitch in Sheep's Clothing credentials, enough that he broke up with her. But he's still willing to forgive her when she asked to patch up their relationship and acknowledged her efforts to better herself from her slight (her group project).
- Hamza also serves as a foil to Ren Yi Xiang's other love interest, Kevin. While Kevin one-sidedly continues to encourage Ren Yi Xiang's antagonism to Pei Shi which may take Ren Yi Xiang to further emotional problems when everyone else warned him (but as long as Kevin gets the love pair, he doesn't mind), Hamza took the steps to stop Pei Shi's Bitch in Sheep's Clothing actions to spiral out of control by showing the consequence: The temporary breakup.
- Lovable Jock: He's a sports player and generally well-meaning and pleasant and doesn't even hold it much against Pei Shi being actually more overcompetitive than she displayed (though he did break up on her, temporarily), although he's unaware of Ren Yi Xiang's animosity against him, he doesn't seem to be overly competitive about being on the winning side.
- Pretty Boy: He's a cross between this and Hunk, his face is pretty, and as a sports player, his muscles are quite ripped, able to induce Distracted by the Sexy.
- Put on a Bus: He disappeared from the show after the Organization made their appearance and somehow did not come back when even Pei Shi returns in the SQUID Game episode and the exam arc. Thus far, he's the only students that returned to school, but never seen with the new uniform by the Organization.
- Red Oni, Blue Oni: The blue oni to Pei Shi's red oni, as he appears to be calmer and less talkative than her.
- Unknown Rival: He doesn't seem to notice Ren Yi Xiang's issues against him, but treats him no better or worse than any other friends.
Nicole Tan
Portrayed by: Nicole Low
Jianhao's little sister, who's very much as mischievous and sneaky as her brother. Together with her brother, they're basically partners in crime in cheating, pranking or what have you.
- Accidental Misnaming: Because of not interacting with Pei Shi until the final exam, Nicole doesn't know her actual name and calls her 'Pei Le'.
- Actor Allusion: She gets a deja vu with Ms. Sandy, because in an older video, her actress (Nicole Low) played as the teacher Ms. Sandy was Expying (The Bimbotic Teacher).
- Big Sister Bully: Both her and Jianhao bully their Big little brother Kai.
- Birds of a Feather: With her brother Jianhao.
- Brilliant, but Lazy: She is a procrastination master just like Jianhao, but the art class video revealed that she's surprisingly good at painting.
- Brother–Sister Team: She's rarely seen without her brother, and teams up with him for many of his hijinks, ranging from naughty pranks to antics to protect friends.
- The Dreaded: Nicole is terrifyingly scary and looks like she's out for blood against Julynn ever since she got her painting ruined. She first tried to get Julynn's hand burnt on her science experiment, and Julynn does her best to stay in detention as long as possible just to avoid her, while Nicole is just constantly looking at her through the window.
- Forgiveness: She officially forgave Julynn for ruining her painting and plant before at the start of the new year as she's leaving for New York.
- Guile Heroine: During the third and final exam, she quickly switches Diana's note to Tiffany with another one, successfully preventing them from being caught by Regna.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: While she joins up with Jianhao in many of his pranks, she still tries to be genuinely friendly to others, being concerned in their welfare (such as either Julynn or Denise).
- Laser-Guided Karma: Played for Laughs. Julynn is usually her recipient of Trolling. However, in the Art class, it was Julynn who accidentally screwed her over by ruining her masterful unicorn painting and trying to 'fix' it by replacing it with a unicorn doodle.
- Luck-Based Mission: She treats her exams, usually multiple choice questions, as one, as she's more likely to guess answers based on chances, if the question's answer is C, the next answer can't be C. Predictably, for the 1st two exams, she passed and failed exactly once each. In the third exam, luck is on her side too.
- Malaproper: While she's not likely to mess up idioms like Jianhao, when she tries to use an idiom, she tends to use the idioms in the wrong place and wrong time. "You are what you eat" isn't exactly the most proper idiom to cheer up someone.
- Meta Girl: In a different kind than Jianhao's, Nicole has a tendency to lampshade certain tropes that might have happened around the cast. Having to go back to school after certain years have passed? Feels like being caught in a time loop. New teacher who acted in a similar manner to someone whom her actress played in the past? Mentions of feeling deja vu...
- Pet the Dog: Before she leaves for New York, she brings gifts for her classmates, including Julynn whom she collided with many times before and tells her that they're good.
- The Prankster: Not unlike Jianhao, but sometimes her pranks can be a little more extreme. For instance, she's the only one who had an idea to bash a cellphone with a hammer.
- Put on a Bus: Due to her actress being in a pregnancy, Nicole takes her leave from the Titan Academy, saying that she'll depart to New York in order to investigate the whereabouts of her and Jianhao's Missing Mom (Sylvia, who hasn't been since for very long).
- Ridiculous Procrastinator: One of the things she shares with Jianhao is that she's not into studying.
- Running Gag: She tends to finds a way to be late to school, even if Jianhao, who lives in the same house with her, are not as often to be late.
- Troll: In the island episode, she makes Julynn gives her left shoe to her in exchange for noodles that the latter cannot cook without the stove Nicole has purely for her own amusement (and later revealed that she's still pissed at Julynn ruining her art). She also did the same when tricking Kevin to not eat her home cookies, falsely telling him that it's expired, and after a few word-judo, he relented and when he's out of picture, she ate it.
Travis “Trev” Boo III
Portrayed by: Trevor Tham
The class' "rich cool kid". He loves flaunting his wealth, but he's kind of mentally immature. If things don't go his way, he tends to have a crying fit. He's the son of the teacher Mrs. June and is very much distressed on his mom's obsession with the flamboyant Mr. Lakosh.
- Alternate Universe Reed Richards Is Awesome: Alternate Universe Trev is utterly Born Lucky and also a genius. The Doggy Coins that caused the main-verse Trev a lot of losses? In the alternate universe, he co-invented it (with Alternate Jianhao) and he's making super big bucks with it.
- A Fool and His New Money Are Soon Parted: After the pandemic, his mother eloped with Mr. Lakosh but left him with the inheritance of his family's wealth. And then he made the fatal mistake of investing in 'stonks' and lost a lot of his riches that he's getting a little desperate to reclaim his money, especially his beloved Gucci bag.
- Accidental Misnaming: While he's trying to profess his love for Abbey, turns out he couldn't even write her name right.
- Break the Haughty: Usually, Trev is a domineering rich kid that looks down on whoever isn't quite his taste, especially Debbie, whom he considered a nerd and pressuring Ben to be mean at her. Then in the 2nd exam, Trev came unprepared and was reduced to begging even Debbie to copy her exams, and even Debbie refused that one less because of revenge but more because it's unethical, but she still gives him the cake for his birthday. Afterwards, Trev has been less of a haughty domineering cool kid, but more like a spoiled but lovable crybaby that doesn't bully others.
- F--: "N-n-ne-ne-ne-ne-ne-negative thirty?"
- Inelegant Blubbering: It's basically a Running Gag to see Trev crying and losing his cool.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: In his early appearances, he's generally played as being the domineering rich cool kid that looks down on everyone. He influences Ben to be mean at Debbie and at times ridicules Denise for being a friendless nerd. After the episodes that revealed his immaturity (the second exam arc with Miss Sherly), he has since changed for better, trying to be a good friend and no longer being mean to Debbie or Denise. Though his overconfident rich kid persona still existed, he's balanced out with his decent heart, mood swings and misfortune.
- Mood-Swinger: He changes his mood from being overconfident to a crying wreck (or vice versa) at the drop of a hat.
- Only Known by Their Nickname: His full name is actually 'Travis Boo III'. But everyone just calls him with the literal spelling of his first name syllable: "Trev".
- Rich in Dollars, Poor in Sense: He's rich, he likes to flaunt and... he's not too bright and cries at the drop of a hat when things don't go his way.
- Screw the Rules, I Have Money!: He occasionally uses his riches for other things such as rule-breaking.
- Super Gullible: Why he's Rich in Dollars, Poor in Sense. Pick any new trends that has warning signs about possible scams; stonks/stock markets, bitcoins, NFT, you name it. Trev will invest in it and be delusional that he'll do well without the actual knowledge about it, when he's shown to be constantly failing and losing more fortune, leading to more crying. He's just that desperate in regaining his fortunes. He's also befriending Terry without realizing his dark sides.
- Tempting Fate: During the Group Projects video, after hearing that the project will make up thirty percent of their grades, Trev still slacks off and says that he'll make it up in the exam. Later, not only he failed to realize that the exams existed right in his birthday (which distracted him), he proceeded to earn negative thirty for his efforts.
Terry Sim
Portrayed by: Leonard Lau
- Bait the Dog: In two ways. He debuted as a mysterious but seemingly innocent student whose flaw was that he's a little perverted. Then he got exposed as a major pervert, photoshopping himself as a harem lord. But once he returned to the class after the pandemic, he seemed to no longer stir up trouble and had more stable relations with Juhi, so it's looking like he has reformed... only for him to get worse and actively sabotage his classmates to get expelled so he could graduate with fewer competitions.
- Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: He presents himself as a diligent and good student, but he hides a very perverted side, having multiple girlfriends in the past and spends his private time doing photo manipulations of him being a harem leader, and also sabotaging other students to be the only top student in school.
- The Casanova: Denise wasn't the first girl he has his eyes on. Previously, he was in a relationship with Lydia, and after the school re-opens, he's in a relationship with Juhi.
- Cassandra Truth: Terry tried to tell Ms. Sherly that Vincent cheated (which he really did) because there's no way he can score a 97 to get him expelled. He's thankfully dismissed due to lack of evidence.
- Competition Freak: He wants to be the only student with a 100.
- Covert Pervert: No one believed that such a hardworking, unassuming genius could be a pervert, until he was exposed in the Online Class.
- Crazy-Prepared: Quite downplayed actually. Terry always had a spare cellphone that he used for his cover: Taking plant pictures, so just in case someone demands proofs, he could just give them the spare, while using his main phone to take girls' pictures. Still, he was completely unprepared to cover for his photoshopping habits, as with the instructions of Miss Sherly, he ended up exposing himself.
- Evil Counterpart:
- To Denise. Both of them are the excelling, perfectionistic students of Class T1T5, but while Denise is willing to help out her classmates, Terry acts based on his own self-interests.
- Also to Pei Shi. Both are Competition Freak who act on self-interest while having a pleasant facade and some issues with love. However, as 'bad' as Pei Shi's negative sides, she's not that harmful towards her friends, also still attempting to be genuinely friendly to others and her love issue was mirred with many misunderstandings brought by her own flaws. Terry is actively harmful to his 'friends' in his quest to stand on top of Titan Academy and he is usually the one that ditches his 'love interests' (Lydia, Denise, Juhi) due to not aligning to his goals anymore.
- Evil Genius: One of the few smart students in the academy and a self-centered sabotager.
- Foil: With Teverly. They're both the Token Evil Teammate, but while Teverly is evil in the way that he serves the Organization (evil in an orderly manner), Terry is a Wild Card kind of evil unrelated to the Organization, not really caring about what kind of harm will befall onto others as long as his goals are realized, either for being on top of the class or getting back at JianHao and Vincent for his past humiliation to the point of enabling a huge wildfire on the whole school (evil in a chaotic manner).
- Four Eyes, Zero Soul: The Token Evil Teammate of Class T1T5 and wears Nerd Glasses.
- The Friend Nobody Likes: He has no close friends and everyone looks at him with suspicion. Those who try to befriend him are usually gullible (Trev) and eventually paid the price (Juhi). The one who 'likes' him is just Regna (for catching a cheating student and allowing her to expel someone), and seeing that she's a loyal Organization member, that's not saying much. Even Denise accepting him as her lab partner after they're both transferred to Class T1T1 appears to be out of necessity rather than genuine willingness, and Jianhao singles him out as the one person he prefers to instead fail and get expelled in the Alternate Universe Class T1T5 (he ends up not failing).
- Hate Sink: Starting from Season 4, Terry graduates from a mere Bitch in Sheep's Clothing (whose vice was secretly being a pervert, but in the long run was harmless) into someone who is designed to be given a heel-type hate, with all the actions to match (and getting away with it). These include:
- Trying to get everyone expelled just so he's the only one who stays on the top of the class.note
- Coldly dumping his 'girlfriend' Juhi when she was expelled. Because "he can't be seen with failures"
- Implied to have sabotaged the ship during the "13 Types of People Stuck on an Island", and definitely leaves everyone to die in the island by hitching a motorboat alone.
- Gives a potassium to Vincent, therefore making him and Jianhao burn the whole school and taking the blame for it, and no one knows Terry's involvement in it.
- It's very telling that when Jianhao consults Dr. Burqq to get into an Alternate Universe where Class T1T5 never separated, he states that he'd rather have Terry fail and get kicked out.
- It's All About Me: He acts more based on his own self-interests. His justification for sabotaging other students is that there are fewer competitions for him passing the exam, so as long as he himself could pass and be the top student, he couldn't care less about the rest.
- Karma Houdini: Terry always makes it his mission to get away from every nasty things he did to be on the top of the class and his darker desires. The only karma he got was when Miss Sherly exposed his perverted side, but it felt more like a slap on the wrist. Other times, Terry gets away from getting one student expelled (and he used Regna to his advantage), dumping Juhi, leaving his friends to die in a deserted island and setting the school on fire (JianHao and Vincent ended up taking the blame and none of them knew it was Terry's doing).
- Kick the Dog: After Juhi gets expelled, despite them being in a relationship, Terry coldly dismisses her with "I can't be seen with a failure."
- Only Known by Their Nickname: His in-universe full name is 'Terrence Sim'. However, everyone just calls him 'Terry', the most common nicknaming of that name.
- Pet the Dog: Subverted. He claps for Jianhao for passing the third/final exam. However... It's all just JianHao's imagination running wild. In reality, nobody, including him, was cheering.
- The Quiet One: He's normally reserved and keeps to himself. It's part of his facade.
- Teen Genius: He's someone who can match Denise in her smarts, and also a rather cunning person to hide his darker sides.
- Teens Are Monsters: Though not to the level of being really heinous, Terry cements himself as the Token Evil Teammate of the students when he purposely sabotaged an unnamed student to get expelled in the 3rd exam, beforehand while he could be unscrupulous and a little villainous, he wasn't being actively harmful. And then he tricked Vincent into setting the class and eventually the whole school, with the knowledge that many will be harmed, but he's more busy cheering that he managed to get back at Vincent for humiliating him twice (the Online class and after the 3rd exam).
- Token Evil Teammate: The only Titan Academy student for both T1T5 and N4T1 who's unscrupulous, selfish, and being harmful (though not physically) to even his teammates.
- Took a Level in Jerkass: Downplayed. He has always been one of the more cunning students, but in his earlier times, he's mostly keeping things for his own interests (such as taking girls' pictures in the toilet) and aside of that, he's harmless. By the time of late Season 4, he's gone to sabotaging other students to fail the exam and get expelled while he'll pass on his own.
Abbey
Portrayed by: Abbey Tan
The class' "bimbo" and often seen hanging out with the sports team. She's being courted by Trev, and while she does find some of his flaws annoying, she still accepts him anyway.
- Amicable Exes: She breaks up with Trev, but assures him that they can still be friends, no hard feelings.
- Living Emotional Crutch: She has tried breaking up with Trev, but after seeing how much he's so overdependent on their relationship since his parents' departure, she ended up still hanging out with him and dealing with his mood swings so he has someone to care for... until she eventually finalizes it in the Island episode.
- The Pollyanna: She's not even fazed at all when she fails her exam and gets expelled, stating that she'll do just do better next time. Even if not in Titan Academy anymore.
- Spell My Name With An S: An in-universe version, for one episode. Trev has issues in spelling her name, ranging from "Ebi" to "Abi" and many more. Making matters worse, this happens during his attempt at courting her, so Abbey is not too pleased.
Juhi
Portrayed by: Juhi Nars
- Accidental Dance Craze: While not as overly big as the one-time Kevin D'Meal, Juhi's schtick is that she's so obsessed with TikTok dances that somehow her friends would follow through the dance anyway. A Running Gag in this is that if Kevin is amongst those carried over, he tends to be a little inaccurate on it.
- Blatant Lies: One of the more hilarious scenes is when she realized she got something wrong and starts insisting otherwise during the exam.Vicky (after seeing Juhi break into a dance for getting her exam results): What did you get, Juhi?
Juhi: 60!
Vicky: That's not that good...
Juhi: At least it's a pass! (dances more) How 'bout you? (looks at Vicky's result...) 95? ....... 85.
Vicky: 60.
Juhi: 85. - Broken Bird: Downplayed. While Juhi remained as a kooky girl ever since her return, she has toned down her kookiness. For instance, she no longer did TikTok shenanigans that she's known for. Seemed like being dumped by Terry has an effect in her psyche.
- Cloud Cuckoo Lander: She's a weird girl whose brain goes along with TikTok trends, breaks to a dance at the drop of a hat and eschews common sense at times.
- Dance of Despair: She expresses her difficulty at doing exams by dancing about it. Cue a short Accidental Dance Craze.
- No Accounting for Taste: She's Terry's new girlfriend, and she doesn't seem to either be aware or even care for Terry's darker side (seeing that being obsessed over TikTok to the point of occasionally overriding common sense is Juhi's schtick). Eventually deconstructed: After she was expelled, Terry then proceeds to coldheartedly dump her.
- What the Hell, Hero?: She gives Terry a disapproving look when he cheers on Miss Sherly's temporary leaving (even if most likely because that means one less faculty member that knows his dark secret). It's at least enough to make him calm down in his latter appearances and they can continue being a couple. Not enough to stop him from his sabotaging attempts as well as dumping her when she got expelled, though.
Vicknesh
Portrayed by: Muhammad Razeem
- Mysterious Stranger: Who is he, really? He comes from one class to another and back to the class unnoticed. In his debut during the Picture day, he had no idea about Class T1T5 and was only in for a photoshoot required for his job interview CV (which was never brought up again). Maybe Chloe has a point: He's sus.
- Nervous Wreck: Sweats like a waterfall that it wets pillows in a short time.
- The Quiet One: He doesn't talk much, but he sometimes talks with very few sentences.
Livy
Portrayed by: Livy Renata
"I think I came to wrong school."
A new transfer student from Indonesia introduced in "13 Types of Students on Wednsday".- Foreign Exchange Student: Is this in “Types of Students on Wednesdays”. She comes from Indonesia.
- The Crush: For Vincent as she replaces Denise for this episode.
- Logical Latecomer: She keeps pointing out how odd of a bunch Class T 1 T 5 is in her first episode.
- Only Sane Woman: This is essentially her role in her debut. She's constantly weirded out by the eccentricities of Class T1T5 and comments on them. At the end of the episode, she even asks Miss Sherly if there are any normies in it.
Tasha
Portrayed by: Tasha Arora
A smart girl that occasionally dips into conspiracy theories, being overly analytical without going to nerd levels like the other nerds in the series.
- Conspiracy Theorist: She digs way deeper than more about any student would know. With the help of someone from Class N4T1 (heavily implied to be Cleverly), she comes so close to revealing that the Organization now controlled Titan Academy, before Miss Sherly tells her to quit it with her reveals. Because of this, in the latter videos, she is easily suspicious in whatever new things the school is offering, thinking it's related to the Organization. She also correctly predicted Madam Soot Beng's return.
- Paper-Thin Disguise: Puts on a fake mustache and a janitor uniform to pass as a 'janitor'. Her cover is easily blown by Debbie and the 2nd janitor.
- Put on a Bus: Due to her actress studying aboard, Tasha has yet to be seen shortly before the 3rd exam arc began.
Cheryl
Portrayed by: Cheryl Chin
A foreigner student who's very concerned of her grades and has a tendency to make her breasts bigger by stuffing papers on her chest. She seemingly vanished without trace since Season 2, but suddenly makes a return in the middle of Season 5.
- The B Grade: Downplayed. Of course, no one is as extreme as Denise's, but Cheryl's concern for her grades was about as strict as Pei Shi's, but unlike Pei Shi, Cheryl has a legitimate concern: If she's not getting good enough grades, she's going to be sent aboard (further, considering she's already a foreigner) by her parents. It's enough that she tried to bribe the teacher for it.
- The Bus Came Back: After suddenly vanishing from the series (and being mentioned off-hand and jokingly by Class N4T1 that she's locked in a locker and never returned, she's suddenly back in Season 5, now with red dyed hair. She spends her comeback debut trying to catch up with what she missed in her absence.
- Fake Boobs: She tried to make her breasts look bigger by stuffing her chest area with papers. They fell off when Mr. Lakosh told her to strike a 'hands up' pose.
