Tomoru Shindo is a college student in City 5, only months away from graduating, and he cannot decide what he wants to do with his life. He ponders joining the Earth Defense Force (EDF). Tomoru begins having strange dreams where he is protecting a woman from mecha monsters. He also dreams about a mecha named Orgun fleeing from other mechas.

A high ranking &quot;Detonator&quot; from the Evoluder race. Orgun is 3 metres tall, which by Evoluder standards, is quite short.    Orgun betrays the Evoluders to travel Earth where he is supposedly being called to, even going so far to kill one of his comrades to get there.   Unfortunately, his original body is destroyed, but manages  to some how create a new one on Earth.    Orgun finds a young man by the name of Tomoru Shindo, and &quot;links&quot; with him. During this link, Orgun tells Tomoru that he has travelled over 260 million years in his journey.     Orgun vows to protect the earth from his former comrades.

Introduced in volume two of the manga, Kuchiki becomes a full-member of Genshiken together with Ogiue in volume four apparently after being kicked out of the Anime Club. Kuchiki is a very abrasive individual, with a loud and obnoxious style of speech and no qualms about doing indecent or improper things (such as spying on girls). He was a part of the Anime Society before he joined Genshiken. He is also not ashamed to cosplay.  Kuchiki is actually the second-best fighting game player in Genshiken, next to Kousaka. He twice expects himself to be named the next Genshiken president, only to be passed over by Ohno and then Ogiue. Mostly a background comedic character, Kuchiki is used as a goad for a good many of Genshiken's slapstick and off-color jokes. One might even consider him a boke to the rest of the Genshiken's tsukkomi.  In the relaunch of the manga, it is revealed that Kuchiki doesn't need to look for a job since he's pretty much guaranteed to have a job at a local bank thanks to family connections.

He is the son of Mora, the fortune-teller and a prince of the Darkside Empire. He is handsome and sweet. He is deprived of the qualifications necessary to be the successor of the Darkside because of his mistakes in the human world. Mora orders him to travel with Gokudo and train himself to become a better ruler. His incurable weakness are women.

He is the one of students in the 2-4 class.He loves eating. Also he is good friends with Shin Sawada.

Kazuya is an orphan. He was raised by his older brother, Kazuhiro, who attended Ryokuto academy. Hasukawa idolized his brother and wanted to enroll at Ryokuto to be more like him. At the start of the series, we see him enrolling into the school, realizing his dream, but he is very late due to a series of freak accidents. To make matters worse, Kazuhiro has just married Kazuya's first love, Sumire! Unable to live in the same house as the newly-weds, Kazuya moves into the dorms. Little does he know what terrors await him there!

Hakufu's cousin and an attractive pretty boy, both Kanu and Ukitsu have both expressed exclusive interest in him. Although only a C-rank his lack of confidence and his short resume of victories (or battles for that matter) keep from becoming A-rank despite already having the power of one. He has a crush on his cousin and is generally shy and well-meaning making life very difficult for him. He was a virgin (presumably) until he was seduced by 3 hot girls from Kyosho after he was kidnapped. Oddly Hakufu doesn't seem to mind being naked around but is aware of and disapproves of sexual harassment showing how much she trusts him.

The protagonist of the series; accidentally teleported into the future from his "home", Tokyo, he ends up having to fight in Hamdo's army, where many soldiers are mere children that have been captured from villages the army conquered. With his outsider attitude, he stands out from the crowd, having an unusual amount of kindness and manners in comparison to the other children. Despite being a kendo fighter he's extremely clumsy, overly enthusiastic, and overtly optimistic, which usually causes him trouble as he's often being tortured, interrogated, or otherwise getting in trouble. 

Hamegg is one of [Osamu Tezuka](https://anilist.co/staff/96938)’s most widely used character actors.  Motivated by greed, he is extremely dishonest and a true coward – character traits that make him perfect as a cringe-worthy villain.  He is usually cast alongside [Acetylene Lamp](https://anilist.co/character/33515) (in a partnership Tezuka thought worked particularly well) as a henchman or lackey to another star, such as [Duke Red](https://anilist.co/character/31681), Skunk Kusai or Marukabi Boon.

His roles run the gamut from lighthearted comedy to darker, more violent characters, and oftentimes the parts he plays involve elements of both.

As one of Tezuka’s oldest characters, he appeared for the first time in Tezuka’s early amateur work, The Old Man’s Treasure Island (1945).  Of course, with a repetoire as large as his, he has had many memorable performances, including as Secret Police Inspector Akabane in [A Message to Adolf](https://anilist.co/manga/31695) (1983-85), the hunter in [Jungle Emperor](https://anilist.co/manga/31771) (1950-54), and numerous ones in [Astro Boy](https://anilist.co/manga/30728) (1952-86).

In another example of Tezuka using English words in pun-like fashion, Hamegg’s name is directly lifted from a popular breakfast combination.

Distinguishing Features
With his round head, permanent grin and large, peering eyes (patterned after Hollywood actor Peter Lorre), Hamegg’s appearance is one of the most distinctive among Tezuka’s varied cast, and help illustrate him as a consummate shyster.

Toshiharu Shibahime is Tsubasa&#039;s father and a designer of clothes for children. He said that when he designes dresses, he takes Tsubasa as a model and thinks of which clothes would fit her. He also made several dresses for her. He&#039;s handsome and good-hearted, but quite clumsy, and he cares deeply about his daughter.

As a fat, sickly, and spoiled child, Takefumi was constantly picked on in elementary school. He was somewhat protected by the tomboy Tsubaki, who, while protecting him from other bullies, would bully Takefumi herself. When he asked Tsubaki why she paid attention to him, she told him that a teacher had asked her to look after him. After hearing this, Takefumi is humiliated as he had never been in his life; he is humiliated because he had believed that he was somehow special to Tsubaki, but he realized that she did not care about him at all, and was just obeying a teacher&#039;s request. 

He transferred to a school in another city but returns years later to attend Hokuei High School with the other characters. When he returns to Tokyo, he had lost weight, become healthy, tall, handsome, and completely unrecognizable. He intends to take advantage of the fact that no one recognizes him to get revenge on Tsubaki. Although he butts heads with Yukino at first, she recognizes that his efforts to transform himself are similar to her own obsession with her image, and they share a mutual, albeit begrudging, admiration. He later realizes that his feelings for Tsubaki are actually love, and that the source of his seeming hatred for her was because he felt rejected by her. After he realizes this, he finds out that Tsubaki likes him, too, and they become a couple.

Son of the British noble Seigi Chōujin, Robin Mask. Dealing with a strict lifestyle from his father consisting of non-stop training of studying and exercising. As a result of this, Kevin ran away from the lifestyle he despised when he was 8 and soon, joined the d.M.p. and trained in the league as an Akugyō Chōjin (Evil Superhuman). This was also where he met his ally and adversary, Scarface, as his training partner. After seeing the defeat of Tel-Tel Boy and MAXman from Mantaro however, he immediately left and became a lone wolf; siding with neither light nor darkness (though still assisting Seigi Chōujins when in need - mainly Mantaro his rival). He has a deep sense of honor that is rarely shown.     In the later part of the series, He does enter in the Chōujin Olympics: The Resurrection, assisted by his manager Croe (Whom is actually Warsman in disguise) and helps Kevin train for the event. Kevin does defeat all of his opponents he faced in the competition up to the main event with his main adversary, Mantaro Kinniku. In the anime version, he loses to Mantaro but where as in the manga, he wins it in an epic match. Starting from his days in the d.M.p, Kevin has a Spider-Web Nest Tattoo on his back; Having images of Chōujins he has defeated. He still continues this practice even after his departure. He does have his own version of the Kinniku clan&#039;s Kajiba no Kuso Djikara (Burning Inner Strength) called  __Maelstrom Power.__ He has also won 1st place twice in the popularity contests in the manga. 

The main villain of the series who seeks to destroy Kirby by any cost. He has ruled Dream Land for 300 years (so he claims), and is still going strong, but is not regarded actually as a king. Despite the fact Dedede is greedy, scheming, and even outright sadistic- even going as far as to say that people’s suffering amuses him- no one has ever tried to dethrone him, despite the fact that he also threatens the children. He's actually harmless for the most part, but his intense dislike of Kirby compels to purchase monsters from Nightmare Enterprises and cause mayhem for the people of Dream Land.  He loves buying new 'toys' and acts like a spoiled child despite his age. He's jealous of the attention Kirby gets, and while at first he even wanted to kill Kirby, later he focuses more on trying to kick him out or just make him look bad. Of course he has a kinder, gentler side, but it only shows in the most extreme of circumstances. (like in the De-appreciation-day episode where he played a prank on Kirby which blew him up which made Dedede upset that he thought he actually killed Kirby, and in the episode where a meteorite was going to hit Pop Star, so he built a playground to make up for his mistakes.)  

Self proclaimed &quot;Strongest Mage Knight of Uranus&quot;. Though with his self proclaimed title he gives the Beast Warriors a run for their money in the beginning, but as soon as he runs out of energy, which powers his magic, he becomes completely useless. He seems loyal to Uranus even after having his status stripped away and keeps hassling the team to the end.

Etoh and Parn have been friends since childhood. While Parn stayed in the village, Etoh left to enter the clergy. Currently just a novice, he still has learned a number of the ways of the Priests of Falis, God of Light. He has a limited capacity to heal wounds and can speak in an ancient tongue as a sign of authenticity.  Etoh is friendly and helpful as well as devoted to his religious duty, and in the end, he realizes what he must do: even as Slayn and Leylia have their own foes to face, so too must Etoh face his so that Parn may succeed.

Katori is the pilot and navigator of the Soyokaze. He is a well-mannered and calm young man. He is confident in his navigating and piloting skills, and for good reason. It has been shown that he is also an adept driver, able to make incredibly sharp turns with a large vehicle while avoiding enemy fire. 

He often uses buddhist sayings and meditates in his spare time. Due to his peaceful nature he gets along well the rest of the crew. He started to trust Tylor earlier than most of the crew and followed the captain's orders without questions sooner. When the women aboard the ship complain about the men they usually exclude Katori from their criticizing—in fact, it isn't usual for them to gossip with him about it.

Dalton used to be a guard who served under King Wapol, but was opposed to Wapol&#039;s treatment of his subjects. He was seen with Wapol in Alabasta in a meeting with Princess Nefertari Vivi&#039;s father. He was inspired to rebel by Hiruluk. After seeing Hirluk&#039;s noble sacrifice, he turned against Wapol, but was subdued and thrown in prison, constantly mocked by Wapol and his henchmen, Chess and Kuromarimo. After Wapol abandoned his kingdom when Blackbeard invaded, Dalton took charge and kept the island from falling into disarray, soon gaining the trust of the people.    When Monkey D. Luffy and his crew came to Drum Island in search of a doctor to cure Nami of her illness during the mission to get Princess Nefertari Vivi to Alabasta Kingdom, they encountered Dalton and some men who thought they were here to rob the island. He doesn&#039;t live in the castle, preferring to live in the village.    

He has eaten the Devil Fruit known as the Ushi Ushi no Mi, Model: Bison (ウシウシの実 モデル野牛(バイソン) Cow Cow Fruit, Model Bison) which gives him the ability to transform into a bison and into a half human/half bison form that resembles a minotaur. In the English anime the fruit is called the &quot;Ox Ox Fruit&quot; and the animal he turns to is an Ox.    



While Brock was at Professor Ivy's lab, Ash and Misty land on Tangelo Island and meet this young man, Tracey. He is a Pokemon Watcher and is also a very big fan of Professor Oak. Knowing that Ash and Misty are close to Professor Oak, Tracey decides to tag along with Ash as the crew travels the Orange Islands. Only after the Orange Islands adventure, Tracey decided to stay in Pallet Town and be Professor Oak's assistant.

Anime: In the anime episode For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll!, he comes off as a proud and arrogant person with a slight superiority complex and exhibits a near-religious fervor for Suicune, challenging Ash for daring to say that he&#039;d met the legendary beast. This may just be a form of jealousy on his part, for Ash had also seen Ho-Oh as well, while he has yet to encounter any himself. In the same episode, when he finally saw Suicune, he tried to capture it partially for ego gratification, ironically making him no better than the people who he&#039;s mentioned are unworthy for it. This is somewhat interesting compared to his appearance in The Legend of Thunder! when he mentions Suicune only once, and then only in reference to the other beasts.    In The Legend of Thunder!, he assists Jimmy, Marina, and Vincent in their battle against Attila and Hun. Marina falls for him because he wears a cape.    He is apparently very close friends with Morty, who is also an expert on the Ecruteak legends. Morty acts as Eusine&#039;s voice of reason, trying to convince him to calm down and ease up, but to no avail. When Eusine leaves suddenly at the end of the episode, Morty&#039;s lack of surprise indicates that this has happened before.    Manga: In Pok&eacute;mon Adventures he is quite the showoff, especially towards women, performing flashy magic tricks and even giving out autographed pictures of himself. He flies around on a Jumpluff. He seems to be a close friend of Morty&#039;s, as the Gym Leader is helping him in the hunt for Suicune.    He is first seen being spoken of by Morty, who states that Eusine had him use his powers to try and find Suicune, to no avail. After Morty is defeated by Suicune he contacts Eusine, who goes off to catch it himself. During his hunt he runs into Crystal, who accidently shocks Arckee with his Electrode, proclaiming them rivals and disappears. He then visits and old couple and tricks them into giving him Moomoo Milk by &quot;curing&quot; their Miltank. However Crystal followed him and found out that Eusine really put a berry in its mouth and manipulated the nice couple, to which Eusine doesn&#039;t seem to care. They then encounter Suicune, which turns out to really just be a Ditto sent by Team Rocket to distract them. The two of them were able to let Suicune escape and Eusine defeated the Team Rocket Elite Trio.    [credit to bulbapedia]

Flint first appeared in Showdown in Pewter City. Ash and Misty met Flint, who was selling rocks as souvenirs. Ash bragged about his goal to become a Pok&eacute;mon Master, but Flint told Ash that thinking he could defeat Brock, the Pewter City gym leader was foolish.    After the match, which Ash lost, Flint brought him home and talked with Ash about Brock. Flint took him to Brock&#039;s house and revealed that Brock had nine younger siblings that he constantly had to take care of, because his father left to become a Pok&eacute;mon Trainer. He never returned, as did his mother.    Flint decided to help Ash in his gym battle and hooked Pikachu to a hydro-electric dam to increase its strength. After the gym battle, Flint showed up and revealed himself to be Brock&#039;s father. He had failed to become a successful Pok&eacute;mon Trainer and couldn&#039;t face Brock and his siblings. As Brock wanted to travel with Ash, he left the Gym Leader position and the duty of being head of the family to Flint.    Flint met Brock again in A Family That Battles Together, Stays Together! when he returned to Pewter City after traveling through Kanto, Johto, and the Orange Archipelago. Brock scolded Flint for not taking care of the Gym. An embarrassed Flint explained that that he had just got the Gym set up the way he liked it when Brock&#039;s mother returned. Flint took Brock back to the Gym, which had been redecorated. Flint closed it because he couldn&#039;t stand it anymore.    Lola and Flint had a rematch for the title of Gym Leader, which he lost. Fortunately, Brock was able to beat his mother. Flint and Lola then agreed to change the Gym to specialize in a combination of Water-types and Rock-types.    It was revealed that Flint gave Brock his first Pok&eacute;mon, an Onix, for a birthday present.    [credit to bulbapedia]

The Astounding Mandi was Ash&#039;s first opponent in the Indigo Plateau Conference. He was a very popular Trainer who had many fans. One reason for his popularity was probably that he could perform magic tricks&mdash;for example, he made a group of Pidgey appear from nowhere.

__Anime:__
Sakaki is the Rocket Team Boss and a former Tokiwa City Gym Leader. He is a very ambitious man and is intolerant of failure. Sakaki is shown to have access to vast wealth and resources. The money probably comes from Rocket Team's main source of income — the profit of selling stolen Pokémon. Sakaki also gains a lot of money from smuggling Pokémon, Pokéball trafficking, and other crime rackets. He has Rocket Tean operations in both Kanto and Johto. He rarely meets people in person, as he prefers to communicate with his underlings via telecommunications.
__Manga:__
Sakaki serves much of the same role as he does in the games, although he now has Matis, Natsume, and Kyou as subordinates. However, Sakaki is much more ruthless than his other counterparts. ~!Like in the games, he is the father of Silver.!~
