The main protagonist. A biology teacher who is fascinated by demists and wants to learn more about them.

Hikari Takanashi )

Spoken by: Kaede Hondo (Japan); Bryn Apprill (English)

Vampires are very energetic. He avoids biting someone else's neck, instead of drinking a blood packet sent by the government and using blood substitutes like tomato juice. Contrary to myth, he likes to eat garlic and just does not like bright light and warm temperatures. She sometimes has a desire to bite someone, usually her sister, to stop her teeth from itching. Despite her sluggish nature, she often tries to help others in need.

Ky? ko Machi (? , Machi Ky? ko )

Voice by: Minami Shinoda (Japan); Terri Doty (English)

A shy dullahan whose head is separated from his body, which has a blue flame from where the neck should be. Since he can not move his own head, he always misses contact with others. He developed a love for Tetsuo, because of his good and caring nature. She initially found it difficult to get friends because people felt awkward to talk to her without leveraging her head in some way, even though she herself accepted the concept and desire to joke about it. Incidentally, the academic procedure has proved he has a neck, which connects his mouth to his stomach and lungs, but somehow it is in "another space" and serves as a Wormhole between his head and body.

Yuki Kusakabe ( ???? , Kusakabe Yuki )

Voice by: Shiina Natsukawa (Japan); Sarah Wiedenheft (English)

A shy, snowy woman whose body is always cold. He will sometimes spread cold air when experiencing negative emotions and vulnerable to heat.

He is also secretly a manga fan and has tastes for several genres.

Sakie Sat? ( ???? , Sat? Sakie )

Spoken by: Y? ko Hikasa (Japan); Morgan Garrett (English)

Succubus who works as a math teacher. Because of the aphrodisiac that his body produces, he must always be careful to avoid seducing his male students accidentally, such as wearing a gym outfit to hide his body and taking an early train to avoid a crowd of men. While his nature as a succubus causes some men to be attracted to him, he himself develops a love for Tetsuo after coming to believe that he is immune to his aphrodisiac.

Himari Takanashi ( ????? , Takanashi Himari >)

Vote by: Lynn (Japan); Jamie Marchi (English)
