Video Game and Anime Characters

Kozo Kasahara (笠原 浩蔵, Kasahara Kōzō?), Bozaburo Taira (平 坊三郎, Taira Bōzaburō?), and Kubisaku Nagai (長井 首作, Nagai Kubisaku?)
Kasahara Voiced by: Kosuke Toriumi (Japanese), Newton Pittman (English)
Taira Voiced by: Takashi Onozuka (Japanese), Kul Das (English)
Nagai Voiced by: Chihiro Suzuki (Japanese), Christopher Bevins (English)
Kasahara, Taira, and Nagai are three fanboys exclusive to the anime series whose true (albeit comical) forms are a karakasa, a noppera-bo, and a rokurokubi. They are obsessed with Moka, Kurumu and Yukari, espectively, and they each head a fan club devoted to the said girl of their obsession. Jealous of seeing Tsukune with them all the time, they decided to get rid of him so they can have the girls to themselves. It is later revealed that they started the fanclubs because of their weak forms, and decided to latch on the girls of their dreams so they will not be laughed at ever again. Although they are not quite strong as monsters, but when transformed, they can merge their true forms into a giant monster known as "Daidarabotchi". However, this does not stop them to be defeated (to their awe) by Inner Moka. Ironically, their defeat also causes them to form a new fan club: the Vampire Fan Club. They were later severely beaten by the Protection Committee for not paying their club tribute not before they revealed Tsukune's human identity to Kuyo, originally done by Ishigami in the manga. Kasahara ends his sentences with "umbrella" (〜カサ, kasa?), Taira ends his sentences with "blob" (〜ペラ, pera?), and Nagai ends his sentences with "neck" (〜クビ, kubi?).
Tonko Oniyama (鬼山 とん子, Oniyama Tonko?), Shijimi Chono (蝶野 しじみ, Chōno Shijimi?), and Sumae Mizuno (水野 すまえ, Mizuno Sumae?)
Oniyama Voiced by: Sayuri Yahagi (Japanese), Kristi Kang (English)
Chono Voiced by: Kei Shindō (Japanese), Hilary Couch (English)
Mizuno Voiced by: Kana Asumi (Japanese), Madeleine Broseh (English)
Appearing exclusively in the anime series, they are a trio of girls whose true forms are insect monsters (Oniyama is a Japanese dragonfly, Chono is a Lycaenidae, and Mizuno is a whirligig beetle). They were former leaders of the Literary Club, Japanese Tea Ceremony Club, and the Yaoi Manga Club, respectively, and were made servants by Keito's venom after their clubs were disbanded by her and the Protection Committee. They reappear in Rosario + Vampire Capu2 as recurring characters, free from Keito's control after the latter's defeat by Inner Moka in the first season.
Kotori Ginryu (夕凪 琴織, Ginryu Kotori?) and Natsuhiko Omaji (天路 夏彦, Omaji Natsuhiko?)
Voiced by: Aya Endo (Kotori), Takatoshi Kuwano (Natsuhiko)
Two characters exclusive to the Nintendo DS video game Rosario + Vampire: Tanabata's Miss Yokai Academy. They made a cameo appearance in Chapter 7 of the second serialization, promoting the Academy's Game Club with Natsuhiko holding a flyer for the DS game.
The Four Kings (四天王?)
Tengu Voiced by: Kenyu Horiuchi (Japanese), Newton Pittman (English)
Shiranui Voiced by: Kazuma Horie (Japanese), John Burgmeier (English)
Zashiki-warashi Voiced by: Kazayuki Okitsu (Japanese), Mike McFarland (English)
Umibōzu Voiced by: Nobuaki Kanemitsu (Japanese), Jeremy Inman (English)
Four monsters who lead a Tokyo street gang called "Monster Business" (馬獣工業?), appearing exclusively in Rosario + Vampire Capu2. They consist of Iyo the Zashiki-warashi (伊予の座敷童, Iyo no Zashiki-warashi?), a very short boy with a bowl haircut; Awa the Umibōzu (阿波の海坊主, Awa no Umibōzu?), a humongous overwieght man; and Sanuki the Shiranui (讃岐の不知火, Sankui no Shiranui?), a young man with long grey hair that conceals half of his face. Their leader is Tosa the Tengu (土佐の天狗, Tōsa no Tengu?), a man in a tengu mask. They attack Tsukune and the girls on a class trip, kidnapping Tsukune in the process, but are swiftly defeated. Their last names are the names of what yōkai they are.
Apsara (亜婦皿, Apusara?)
Voiced by: Kyoko Hikami (Japanese), Nazia Chaudhry (English)
Apsara is the Indian cooking teacher of Yokai Academy and, as her name implies, an apsara. Appearing exclusively in Rosario + Vampire Capu2, her favorite dish is curry and is very passionate about the dish. Unfortunately, her curry takes a side-effect of turning anyone who eats it into a "curry zombie". She is later defeated by Inner Moka. In the English anime, she speaks with an Indian accent, keeping with her ethnicity.
Ran Otonashi (音無 蘭, Otonashi Ran?), Rin Otonashi (音無 凛, Otonashi Rin?), and Ren Otonashi (音無 蓮, Otonashi Ren?)
Voiced by: Megumi Takamoto
Ran, Rin, and Ren are first-year students at Yokai Academy. Appearing exclusively in Rosario + Vampire Capu2: The Rhapsody of Love and Dreams, they are sirens attempting to gain the affection of all the boys in the school with their abilities. Ran, the oldest of the three, is revealed to be very shy around boys and is also an otaku, as it is mentioned that she reads BL and Shōjo manga. Rin, the middle sister, is the most active and energetic one out of the three sisters, but is revealed to have incredibly bad memory and is always seen with headphones; if she does not have them on, she cannot remember anything. Ren, the youngest sister, seems to be the one with the most common sense, but she has a habit of only seeing the negative side of things and rarely the positive side. They are not related to San Otonashi despite having the same last name.

Famous quotes containing the words video game, video, game and/or characters:

    It is among the ranks of school-age children, those six- to twelve-year-olds who once avidly filled their free moments with childhood play, that the greatest change is evident. In the place of traditional, sometimes ancient childhood games that were still popular a generation ago, in the place of fantasy and make- believe play . . . today’s children have substituted television viewing and, most recently, video games.
    Marie Winn (20th century)

    Marie Winn (20th century)

    Even an attorney of moderate talent can postpone doomsday year after year, for the system of appeals that pervades American jurisprudence amounts to a legalistic wheel of fortune, a game of chance, somewhat fixed in the favor of the criminal, that the participants play interminably.
    Truman Capote (1924–1984)

    There are characters which are continually creating collisions and nodes for themselves in dramas which nobody is prepared to act with them. Their susceptibilities will clash against objects that remain innocently quiet.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
