Ito Yamori
Male, 25 y/o, 167cm tall (5’4), self-proclaimed graphic artist
A young man who’s a self-proclaimed game graphic artist.
He talks with a mix of Kansai and Tokai dialect.
He would come off as an easygoing kind of guy, but he says a lot of flippant and kind of negative things, so those tend to stand out instead.
He doesn’t seem to want to talk much about his private life.
One day, he got dragged into a mirage, and ended up in Rosemaria’s Black Magic town.
He welcomes what happened, and as a result is unhelpful to the rest of the party’s efforts to help solve the problem.
However, it seems like there’s someone he wants to say something to in reality, so he ends up reluctantly joining the rest of the party.
“What? You’re telling me we came to an amazing world like this and you’re doing something so boring?”
“I’ll tell ya this right now. The top three words I hate are “justice”, “hard work”, and “good will”.
Creator’s comment on the tweet: He’s the next party member after Otowa, Dita, Godzylla, and Seira. But he’s not really the type to shake hands.
Nei Sunagawa
Female, 24 y/o, 172cm tall (5’6), occupation unknown
She has a charming appearance, and an open-minded and calm attitude. She has an unusual manner of dress, and seems like the kind of beautiful woman you might see in a painting.
Rather than giving off an “adult” aura, she just seems mature. Her philosophical way of saying things make her seem older than how old (she says) she is.
She has a glaive, and excels at martial arts. Her memories are vague, but before she knew it she ended up in Rosemaria’s Golden Town, and found herself spending a lot of time there. It seems like the only thing she can really remember about the real world is a certain woman. She happens to be there when Otowa and the others encounter a crisis, and joins the party in order to support them.
“You must be worried. But you can leave this to me. I’ve been in this world for longer than you all have, after all.”
“I understand. It’s human foolishness to not be capable of doing that, is it not?”
Creator’s comment on the tweet: The fifth “party member”. It seems like her situation’s a bit difficult to explain in many ways.
Kento Sayo
Male, 22 y/o, 179cm (5’8), part of a band.
He’s a member of a 2-person band called A-Free-Tone that’s been a hot topic recently. He provides the vocals, as well as the guitar, and other things he feels like doing.
He’s kind of naive, hot-blooded and extremely enthusiastic, innocent, and does whatever he likes.
From time to time you can see glimpses of his more cultured side from the way he was raised.
His motto is “If there’s something you want to do, see it through to the end, even if it kills you.”
He finds himself in Rosemaria’s Machine Town, and afraid of how strange the world is, he runs away and finds himself meeting up with the rest of the party.
He’s worried about his partner Kei, the band, and his mother more than his own problems.
“Let’s heat this beat up! This is Free-Tone’s KENTO!!! What a miracle meeting you is!!”
“Your reasoning’s sound. But it’s got no heart in it!!”
Creator’s comment on the tweet: The sixth party member. He gets heated up in all sorts of ways. Namely, how worked-up he can get and how loud he can yell. The party’s full of people who have their own problems to deal with, so he might end up lifting the mood.
Totori (Totori-chan)
Self-proclaimed maiden, eternally 29 y/o, appears to be taller than 2 meters (6’5)
The strongest dandy, the prettiest of all, everyone’s reliable Totori-chan. (With the head of a hummingbird) (and the heart of a pure maiden) (and the body of a muscular human male bodybuilder) (and a determined look in the eyes) (and fashionable clothing)(and the scent of flowers wafting around) Totori gives her name only as “Totori”, but any further inquiries into her background are met with “A kunoichi must keep her secrets, you know!”.
She’s stayed in Rosemaria’s Elegant Town for a bit, but realized on her own that she was a human from the real world. She seems to know something about Otowa and the rest of the party, too.
“Noooo! I hate fighting like this! Stop or I'll choke you!"
“Did you finally realize it? Yes, that’s right. We all have everything we want here!”
Creator’s comment on the tweet: These are all the “party members” that will be traveling with Otowa and Dita. Next week, we’ll be introducing some of the important side characters.
Even though Totori looks like this, she’s a suuuuuper serious(?) character, so I hope you enjoy her.
Eigha Illner
Male, appears to be in his late twenties, about 190cm (6’2), demon lord
His existence had been hinted at ever since the “Magical Boy Dita and the Sacred Sword” series, and then in Season 4 and the movie, he appeared as the last boss, the demon lord who brought evil to Rosemaria. He’s also Dita’s older brother. He controls corruption called the Miasma, and uses it to corrode the people and living things of Rosemaria…Or at least that’s what happened in the DTDS movie. So then why is this Eigha attacking Dita and Otowa, saying “I have to eliminate you two in order to protect this world”?
“Take my hand. This world won't abandon you. Not like that one."
“Shut up…! If you get in my way, I’ll eliminate you! I won’t let anyone harm this ■■■!”
Creator’s comment on the tweet: Now, we’re introducing someone who’s the opposite of a party member. The Demon King, playing the role of a villain, and the person whose name appears in the game’s subtitle. Eigha Illner. He’s Dita’s older brother, but what could he be doing in this Rosemaria? And for what purpose?
Maasa Asada
Male, 42 y/o, 181cm (5’9), detective.
Vice-chief of the Tokyo branch of the Otowa Detective Agency.
One of the few people who can talk to Otowa as a superior. He’s a capable man who can keep the ragtag eccentrics at the agency (including the president) in check, but he can also pull ridiculous antics (including making himself the butt of the joke) with a completely straight face. He’s also strangely knowledgeable about niche subcultures. He is informed on the mysterious events that have led up to Otowa traveling between “Rosemaria” and reality, and provides important support on the reality side of things. He’s easygoing and has a cunning side to him.
“I’ll do my best to help you out with everything except the things that’ll give me more of these (gray) hairs on my head!”
“You’re blessed, young master Otowa. Remember that.”
“One day, the way you are will make you a demon to someone else.”
Creator’s comment on the tweet: His name showed up in CoE! And he’s finally making his appearance in CoM! In the group of weirdos that make up the agency, he really stands out as one of the biggest ones there! He can help out quite a bit. He’s also blunt enough sometimes to come off like he’s attacking someone.
Lin Orie
Male, 27 y/o, 180cm (5’9), online streamer
He does game LPs on a streaming site called CASTPort. He mainly gained popularity as a streamer from the videos he posts. His adoptive mother manages an izakaya called “Oriental” that the staff of the Otowa Detective Agency frequent. He helps out with the accounting and PR for it. He and his two beloved younger brothers are white Americans but don’t speak any English. He’s fluent in Japanese (and speaks a little Chinese). He appears as a bright and cheerful mega-nerd who’s good at talking to people, but he's also self-deprecating and gets nervous easily. He has a lot of connections online and is great at analysis, so his skills will be of great help in Otowa’s unusual situation.
“Well, it is true that I like cute boy characters, but that is NOT the same thing as being a fudanshi."
“I’ll do what I can to help. But if I know I can’t do anything, I’ll probably just run away at full speed.”
Creator’s comment on the tweet: He’s an older brother, a supporting character, and among those providing support on the reality side of things, he is an especially important interface. His surname is “Orie”, but he (and his younger brothers) aren’t related to the family by blood. They’re different ethnicities, as well. Their izakaya is close to the Otowa Detective Agency, so it’s an important place in CoM.
Miara Kondou
Female, 26 y/o, 160cm (5’2), editor
She’s a young, elite editor who works for the Azuma Bookstore owned by the entertainment company A-Z/MA.
She has a way of letting people down gently, is pretty clumsy, and she says her room is extremely messy, so it might be hard to imagine it, but she’s extremely competent at her job.
With her supervisor suddenly gone missing, she was given the unenviable task of working with the scriptwriter, Kado Orie. Despite her misgivings about the disappearance, she didn’t call the police with her suspicions and instead went to K.K. Otowa Search System.
Soon enough, it turns out that her case is not just an isolated incident.
“Did you…did you just call me…Koala? No! It’s Miara!”
“Oh, I’m not particularly talented or anything! I just happened to get a good opportunity, is all.”
Creator’s comment on the tweet: She’s a girl who works at the Azuma Bookstore, which Kazaru Harada and Minoru Harada were once associated with. It’s owned by a large corporation that has a lot of entertainment projects associated with it. She gets worried when people misread her name as “Koala”. Is this encounter fate or simply coincidence?
Sueko Orie
Female, 52 y/o, 160cm tall (5’2), restaurant owner.
She runs “Oriental”, an izakaya on the first floor of a multi-tenant building, near the Tokyo branch of the Otowa Detective Agency.
All the employees of the agency are regular customers, and she knows them well. She’s the adoptive mother of Lin Orie and his two brothers, and Kado Orie’s older sister. Cheerful, friendly, and dauntless. Knows how to keep the three hard-to-deal-with brothers in line.
Sympathetic towards Otowa’s struggles, she and the brothers often help him out. Perhaps it’s because she can tell that the brothers are deeply involved with the recent incidents.
“Everyone, do you want something to drink? Maybe some oolong tea? Rui-kun, ginger ale for you, right? Hey, Lin, don’t just sit there! Help out!”
“He’s pulling people into things again, isn’t he…”
“About the protagonist of Mother’s series, ‘Tower’, Elliot…”
Creator’s comment on the tweet: The owner of an izakaya. Otowa and the others know her well. Atou, Shinano, and maybe even Reiji have been taken to it. Any sibling would be stumped dealing with her hard-to-please younger brother, but it seems she’s just worried about him. What could her intuition have told her?
Ryuu Nijou
Masculine, appears 25, 172 cm tall (5’6), ex-mercenary.
A man who was once working as a mercenary abroad. He has strangely colored hair, red eyes, and a black cloak around him. There are things that look like stitches on his face, and different parts of his face have slightly different skin colors and textures, almost as if he’s had different people’s faces sewn together. A right eye that always squints, a left eye that’s always wide open, and a mouth that always smiles…The twisted look of his face isn’t just because of the expression he’s making.
He’s been searching for the boy idol, Dita Miwa, and one dark night appears in front of him.
“Let’s return to Mother. There’s no need to worry. I’ll make sure I bring everything back with me.”
“I don’t particularly like doing cruel things.”
“I just don’t want to cut corners if there’s something I have to do. You’re the same, right? ■■■?”
Creator’s comment on the tweet: To all of you with the factor: DAWN, may we meet on the next dark night. Please wait for the interlude and the next part of the main story.
