The Japanese manga series To Love Ru and its sequel To Love Ru Darkness feature an extensive cast of characters created by author Saki Hasemi and illustrator Kentaro Yabuki. After high school student Rito Yuuki accidentally gets engaged to Lala Satalin Deviluke, the runaway crown princess of the alien planet Deviluke, he reluctantly helps her transition to life on Earth, while gradually befriending his dream girl, Haruna Sairenji. Along the way, Rito meets and gets entangled with a colorful cast of other girls (both humans and aliens alike), such as the uptight, high-strung Yui Kotegawa, the sex-switching alien Run/Ren, and the queen bee of their school, Saki Tenjouin. At the same time, Rito must fight off Lala's antagonistic alien suitors, one of whom sends the assassin Golden Darkness to kill him.

Hasemi said that the latter half of the manga features a lot more quirky and unique characters because, the newer the character, the harder he and Yabuki had to work to establish their personality.[1] Yabuki said that by the latter half of the series, they were treating all the female characters as main heroines.[1] Many of the characters also make a cameo appearance in the manga version of Mayoi Neko Overrun!, which Yabuki illustrated.
Main characters
editRito Yuuki
edit- Voiced by: Akeno Watanabe (Japanese); Ry McKeand (Rito), Avery Smithhart (Riko) (English)
Rito Yuuki[2] (
Due to his shyness around girls, he is very clumsy and has great difficulty maintaining his composure around any sort of stimulating situation, which leads him to accidentally molest or grope the many girls in the series. Due to the otherworldly circumstances around him, Rito is always put, along with many different girls, in any and each type of awkward, intimate, and embarrassing situations, such as when he and Haruna were once teleported naked together to the basement of Mikado's medical clinic because of one of Lala's faulty inventions,[4] or when Lala used the same invention to send them naked to the school.[5] In To Love Ru Darkness, his clumsiness becomes even more frequent and violating as well as strangely inventive and surreal. He has shown to be able to accomplish difficult feats, such as reaching his hands or various objects into the clothing and undergarments of girls or partially strip off their clothing, and also grab several private parts of several girls all at once, all of which being purely by accident. Mikado diagnoses that Rito's frequent godly indecency and unwitting perverted acts manifest because of the way Rito extremely restrained himself with the girls, causing his "libido" to accumulate and release in form of accidentally groping girls' bodies and all other perverted stuff happening so far, calling it the "Cataplectic Indecency Syndrome". She also believes that the more he suppresses it, the more extreme and unbelievable the accidents will be.[6] During the first manga series, continuing on into Darkness (and present near the end of Motto To Love Ru), Rito also seems to suffer from Sexsomnia. This can most often be observed with Momo being on the receiving end of it. Rito can often be seen holding Momo's tail and playing with it as a result.
When he is turned into a girl, Rito takes on the persona of Riko Yuusaki (
Saki Hasemi and Kentaro Yabuki initially imagined To Love Ru as mainly a comedy featuring Rito and Lala, with Rito only longing for Haruna. But as they had more meetings, this changed to Haruna also being a featured character with feelings for Rito, in order to emphasize the love triangle.[7] They took care to make sure that Rito was likeable and that his actions were not unpleasant. Hasemi said that because it ran in a shōnen magazine, if boys did not like and support the protagonist, then drawing cute girls would be meaningless.[8] Riko, Rito's female form, was thought up as something special for the 100th chapter and to celebrate two years of serialization. They never intended for her to reappear, but she did so very quickly because she was shockingly well received.[1][9] Rito is one of the most popular characters in the series, coming in fifth place in the manga's first character popularity poll.[10]
Lala Satalin Deviluke
editLala Satalin Deviluke (ララ・サタリン・デビルーク, Rara Satarin Debirūku) is the first princess of Deviluke, whose family rules the Milky Way galaxy. As such, her hand in marriage is sought from across the galaxy as her husband will be successor to the throne. A rather childish girl, she is naïve regarding the culture and customs on Earth. Lala initially runs away from home, as she does not wish to marry any of her suitors, and randomly ends up naked in Rito's bathtub due to one of her inventions. Upon arriving on Earth, Lala pretends to love Rito to keep herself from getting married but really does fall in love with him after she misinterprets a statement that Rito shouts that was meant for Haruna. Although Lala appears to be somewhat airheaded, she is well known on Deviluke for her genius-level intellect and enjoys making all manners of inventions, often prompting some disastrous effect or another.

Yui Kotegawa
edit- Voiced by: Kaori Nazuka (Japanese); Amber Lee Connors (English)
Yui Kotegawa (
Yui was created as a series regular to celebrate one year of serialization. She was given an abundance of common sense and a serious personality, making her a tsundere. In a series full of characters who lack common sense, Yui plays the "straight man" role.[13] Yui was the character that was planned to have the most character growth, as she was the only one who would bring up the perverted stuff Rito does to them. But Yabuki said he did not expect her to turn into such a serious love interest.[1] Yui is one of the most popular characters in the series, coming in sixth place in the manga's first character popularity poll.[10]
Nana Astar Deviluke
editNana Astar Deviluke (ナナ・アスタ・デビルーク, Nana Asuta Debirūku) is the second princess of Deviluke. She is the daughter of King Gid and Queen Sephie, the younger sister of Lala, and the older twin sister of Momo. Of the entire female cast in the To Love Ru series, Nana appears to be the least attracted to Rito, although she too eventually develops romantic feelings for him as the series progresses.
Momo Belia Deviluke
editMomo Belia Deviluke (モモ・ベリア・デビルーク, Momo Beria Debirūku) is the third princess of Deviluke. She is the daughter of King Gid and Queen Sephie, the younger sister of Lala, and the younger twin sister of Nana. Both twins flee to Earth to escape their studies on their home planet Deviluke. While Nana is able to communicate with animals, Momo has the unique ability to speak to plants. Although a recurring secondary character in the original To Love Ru series, Momo becomes the main female protagonist in the sequel To Love Ru Darkness, in which she plots to build a harem of girls around Rito Yuuki, whom she falls in love with.

Nemesis

Nemesis (ネメシス, Nemeshisu) is Mea's "master", who is behind the plan to make Golden Darkness return to life as an assassin. Nemesis has long black hair, golden eyes, a small and slender body, and dark skin. She is a transformation weapon, but a different type than Golden Darkness and Mea as she is a thought-entity lifeform made of dark matter, allowing her to become particulate or substantive at will. Her transformation ability is Transfusion (
Secondary characters
editPeke
edit- Voiced by: Satomi Arai, Aki Toyosaki (Motto To Love Ru) (Japanese); Holly Segarra (English)
Peke (ペケ) is Lala's all-costume robot, who acts as a module to form her clothing. Peke is exceptionally devoted to Lala and has the ability to shapeshift into any kind of clothing for her to wear, but this also drains his power supply. He can also scan the clothing of people around him and duplicate those clothes. As his batteries run out, the clothing Lala wears will slowly dissolve, until it completely disappears. To recharge, Peke simply needs to sleep. Using a dress-form program, Peke has the ability to take on a human form, with the appearance of a young child. Peke came in ninth place in the manga's first character popularity poll.[10]
Risa & Mio
edit- Voiced by: Ryoka Yuzuki (Risa) and Chiemi Chiba (Mio) (Japanese); Margaret McDonald (Risa) and Juliet Simmons (Mio) (English)
Risa Momioka (
Risa and Mio were created specifically to be Haruna's friends. Hasemi speculated that Risa is a sadist and Mio is a masochist. Because they tend to take charge, he said the two are useful when they need to move the story somewhere.[13]
Run & Ren
edit- Voiced by: Fuyuka Oura (Japanese); Greg Ayres (Ren), Christina Kelly (Run) (English)
Run & Ren Elise Jewelria (ルン&レン・エルシ・ジュエリア, Run & Ren Erishe Jueria) is a childhood friend of Lala. As a member of the royal family from the planet Memorze (メモルゼ, Memoruze), they change sex in both mind and body upon triggering a specific stimulus; Run being female and Ren being male. Mikado speculates that the reason a simple sneeze is now enough to trigger the switch on Earth, is due to the differences between it and planet Memorze. Ren is famous for wearing girls' clothing every single day with Lala when he was a child. He arrives on Earth to win Lala by proving he is "man enough" for her but becomes jealous of her relationship with Rito. Due to his pursuit of her, he accidentally gives Rito his first kiss.[14] While Ren is furious, it has an unexpected consequence on Run. She falls in love with Rito, and blames Lala for her misfortunes, while Ren is still in the competition, albeit one-sided, with Rito for Lala's hand in marriage.[15] Run often tries to use items bought via "Galactic Mail Order" to mess with Lala, only for them to backfire on herself. Run becomes a famous idol, with a successful music and acting career. She befriends Kyouko Kirisaki after earning the role of antagonist "Blue Metallia" on her TV show. In To Love Ru Darkness, the relationship between Rito and Run is deepened. Just as Rito realizes that he has neglected Run's feelings and she bursts into tears at the awareness that he will never see her as a girl because of her dual nature, the two personalities of Ren and Run permanently separate into two distinct bodies. This maturation is a tertiary sex characteristic of Memorzians when they come of age, and ends the embarrassing sex change problem.
When Ren was first introduced, Hasemi and Yabuki had already decided on his changing into Run, and foreshadowed it by having a joke where he wears girls' clothes.[7] But Run's debut was postponed because they wanted Ren to make Rito realize his own feelings for Lala. They considered day/night, lightning (or something weather related), and a particular food for initiating the change between Run and Ren, before settling on sneezing because it can be sudden. Hasemi described Ren as single-minded, while he and Yabuki had to use a process of elimination for Run's personality because of all the female characters. She was initially a "dummy", but they decided to take her in a dark, two-faced direction.[7] Run came in eighth place in the manga's first character popularity poll, while Ren came in 15th.[10]
Saki Tenjouin
edit- Voiced by: Ayako Kawasumi (Japanese); Maggie Flecknoe (English)
Saki Tenjouin (
Saki was created to have a senpai character and a character from the upper class of society, who looks down on everyone and speaks her mind. Hasemi said her wealth makes it easy to develop events and advance the story.[8] Saki is one of the most popular characters in the series, coming in seventh place in the manga's first character popularity poll.[10]
Ryouko Mikado
edit- Voiced by: Masako Joh (2008–12), Harumi Sakurai (2012–) (Japanese); Marissa Lenti (English)
Ryouko Mikado (
Because the other females are all young high school students, Mikado was introduced to inject more adult appeal into To Love Ru. Hasemi said he did not want to make her a comedic character, but it is a delicate balance not making her too serious either. Although the character has a history with galactic organizations and Golden Darkness, he said showing that in the story would take her away from Rito and company, making it more of a side story. But he hoped to include a little of it at some point.[13] Mikado came in 12th place in the manga's first character popularity poll.[10]
Oshizu
edit- Voiced by: Mamiko Noto (Japanese); Melissa Molano (seasons 1-3), Jad Saxton (season 4) (English)
Oshizu (お
Oshizu was not intended to be a regular character, but after she learned that Haruna likes Rito, Yabuki suggested she become one and support Haruna in love and felt it would be fun since Haruna hates ghosts.[9] They gave Oshizu an artificial body to possess because they felt it would be hard having her appear as a ghost all the time, but made sure to emphasize several things; she can easily pop out of the body, she is unsteady when walking, she behaves like a poltergeist (such as having telekinesis), and she lacks knowledge of modern humans. Her fear of dogs is an homage to Little Ghost Q-Taro.[9]

Zastin
edit- Voiced by: Takehito Koyasu (Japanese); Scott Gibbs (English)
Zastin (ザスティン, Zasutin) is commander of the Deviluke Royal Guard and Lala's personal bodyguard. Despite being the strongest warrior on Deviluke, Zastin has a horrible sense of direction, resulting in him often getting lost. He also seems to have extremely bad luck, where he keeps getting run over by trains and cars. Initially, Zastin disapproves of Rito, deeming him weak and subsequently seeks to test his strength. However, once Rito exclaims his opinion of marriage in self-defense, Zastin is swayed by his words (though not in the way Rito intends) and summarily approves of him, believing he truly understands Lala's feelings. The gaudy armour-wearing Zastin is often seen with his two sunglasses and suit-wearing subordinates, the blonde-haired Buwatts (ブワッツ, Buwattsu) and the black-haired Maul (マウル, Mauru). All three start working as assistants to Saibai Yuuki on his manga, with the funds earned going to Lala as an allowance. Zastin then shows a keen interest in becoming a professional manga artist. Zastin was initially going to be an enemy, like a CIA agent, but when it was decided to have the running joke of alien fiancé candidates, Lala needed someone at her side.[7] Zastin came in 11th place in the manga's first character popularity poll.[10]
Principal
edit- Voiced by: Kenichi Ogata (Japanese); John Swasey (English)
The unnamed principal (
The perverted principal character was created because there are a lot of scenes set at school, and Hasemi and Yabuki felt that having one character like him would be fun and allow them to do a lot of naughty and perverted gags. The act of allowing Lala to transfer to Sainan High because she is cute was the source of his entire character.[20]
Rin Kujou
edit- Voiced by: Mai Hashimoto (Japanese); Chaney Moore (English)
Rin Kujou (
Rin's family having served Saki's family for generations was not in the original script for chapter 81. Yabuki added it spontaneously, but Hasemi felt it almost completely fleshed out the relationship between the two.[20] Rin came in 10th place in the manga's first character popularity poll.[10]
Ayako Fujisaki

Ayako Fujisaki (
The flashback of Saki saving a bullied Aya was not in the original script for chapter 81. Yabuki added it spontaneously, but Hasemi felt it almost completely fleshed out the relationship between the two.[20] Aya came in 14th place in the manga's first character popularity poll.[10]
Celine
edit- Voiced by: Ryoka Yuzuki (Japanese); Kalin Coates (English)
Celine (セリーヌ, Serīnu) is initially introduced as a gigantic, alien, sentient flower from planet Plantas that is given to Rito by Lala for his 16th birthday. Although seemingly monstrous, Rito cares for Celine deeply, keeping her in the Yuuki residence's backyard, and referring to her as his family. The plant has traits in common with humans: perspiring when the climate is humid, wearing a scarf during chilly weather, and eating ramen when hungry (although Celine still needs the basic nutrients of water and sunlight as well). When Celine seemingly contracts a deadly disease, Witherleaf, Rito is fully dedicated to saving her and finding the only known antidote, the Lakfruit. He and his friends journey to the S-level-danger planet of Mistwa to obtain the antidote, only to return and find Celine all dried up. In reality, she was germinating and Celine bursts out from a single seed, taking the appearance of an infant girl, with a flower on her head. This event shocks even Momo, who is very knowledgeable about the galaxy's flora, stating that even with all of her knowledge there is still much about Celine's biological makeup that is a complete mystery to her. Often speaking the nonsense word "mau" (まうー), the infant Celine has a tendency to jump onto women out of nowhere and attempt to breast feed. Celine gets drunk when she drinks cola, at which time she sprays pollen from the flower on her head that temporarily causes anyone who inhales it to fall in love with Rito (a side-effect that originates from Celine's own affection for him from taking care of her every day). In a special chapter of To Love Ru Darkness, Celine takes the form of a grown young woman during a full moon and is able to speak, but returns to her normal infant form upon morning.
When Celine was first introduced, there was no plan whatsoever to make her a recurring character, but eventually the plant became a symbol of the Yuuki house. Hasemi considered having her turn into a human form from early on, but it did not happen until the Mistwa arc due to the ever-increasing number of regular characters. He initially thought to have her be fairy-sized, but Yabuki suggested mascot-sized.[21] In the final volume of To Love Ru, Hasemi and Yabuki mentioned they never got around to having Celine transform into a beautiful girl on the night of the full moon, meet a man, and fall in love in a Princess Kaguya and fairy tale-like style.[1] They eventually featured a similar event in the sequel series, To Love Ru Darkness.

Tearju Lunatique (ティアーユ ルナティーク, Tiāyu Runatīku), nicknamed "Tear" (ティア, Tia), is an alien scientist in space biotechnology who created Golden Darkness using some of her own DNA. This being why the two look almost identical, although each has her own distinguishing features. Tearju raised Golden Darkness like a daughter until finding out that Eden, the organization she worked for, wanted to raise her as a weapon. She was almost killed trying to rescue Golden Darkness and had to flee for her life. Her old classmate, Ryouko Mikado, tracks her down and brings Tearju to Earth to reunite with Golden Darkness. Well-endowed and clumsy, she quickly becomes the object of attention of the male students when she becomes a teacher at Sainan High. As with her creation, Tearju is based on a character of the same name from Yabuki's previous series Black Cat.

Gid Lucion Deviluke (ギド・ルシオン・デビルーク, Gido Rushion Debirūku) is the King of Deviluke who rules over the Milky Way galaxy. Gid is the father of Lala, Nana, and Momo. He is the one who ended the galactic war and unified the galaxy. Despite his near-omnipotent power, he initially appears with the physical appearance of an infant, looking slightly devilish, with shark-like teeth, spiky black hair, and the characteristic Devilukean tail. Gid's personality borders juvenile delinquency and perversion, going as far as to use his child-like appearance to get close to pretty girls. The childlike appearance is due to him using too much power during the "Galaxy Unification Wars", which shrunk his body, following his conquest. However, even in this form, he is described to still be very powerful, stating he could destroy the Earth if he wanted. It is speculated that Lala's strength and fighting ability is inherited from her father. In To Love Ru Darkness, Gid is back to his adult form when he fights Nemesis and wins with not much effort. Rito steps in and allows her to live inside his body, despite Gid warning him that she might betray him and start more mischief. The King came in 13th place in the manga's first character popularity poll.[10]

Lacospo (ラコスポ) is the small frog-like prince of the planet Gaama, one of Lala's fiancé candidates, and a recurring antagonist. He is by far the most persistent of Lala's suitors and most recurring to try to win her love. He has a pet Iro-Gaama, a rare species of frog whose mucus dissolves only clothing. Appearing multiple times in the series to steal Lala, he is the one who hired Golden Darkness to assassinate Rito.
Kuro
editKuro (クロ) is an alien hitman who has killed over 1,000 people and is known as one of the best at the profession, among the likes of Golden Darkness. He uses an ornate, black gun called Hades, built out of orichalcum, for both offense and defense. It can fire various different types of bullets by reading his psychic energy, such as homing bullets and plasma bullets. In To Love Ru Darkness, it is revealed that he was the one who destroyed Eden, the organization that created Golden Darkness and Mea. At that time he let Golden Darkness walk away after seeing himself in her; he was taken in by an organization as a child and molded into an assassin just like her. Kuro is hired by Azenda to kill Rito. He is held at bay by Nemesis (in Rito's body) and Mea, until Golden Darkness arrives and destroys Hades in her "Darkness" form. After seeing that Golden Darkness has changed and chosen a new path in life, Kuro admits defeat and vows to give up the life of a killer. Kuro was created as a guest character to celebrate the third year of serialization, and was based on Train Heartnet from Yabuki's Black Cat.[27]
