Kiznaiver Characters:
Katsuhira Agata
The story's apathetic and "semi-emotionless" protagonist. During his early childhood, he was part of a previous Kizna System experiment which had failed, rendering him incapable of feeling pain; however, he only has vague recollections of these events. Katsuhira lives alone next to his friend Chidori, as his parents seldom remain at home due to their jobs.
Noriko Sonozaki
A beautiful girl who lacks human kindness and displays no emotion whatsoever. She acts as the arbitrator for the Kizna System and is a member of the Kizna Committee, alongside Urushibara and Yamada. It is revealed that Noriko was a member of the same failed experiment as Katsuhira but instead of distributing her pain to others the experiment wound up taking all nineteen candidates' pain into herself while the others lost most of their emotions and sensation.
Chidori Takashiro
Katsuhira's childhood friend who is humanistic, emotional, and seemingly nosy at times. She fell in love with Katsuhira during their childhood and desperately wishes for him to return to his original kind and funny personality. She is a good cook and often makes meals for the other Kiznaivers.
Hajime Tenga
A delinquent who is impulsive and rowdy to the point of being obnoxious, but is caring and very protective of his friends. After they become Kiznaivers, Tenga casually begins to live with Katsuhira in his apartment. He attempts to act as Chidori's wingman to help her win Katsuhira's affections, but is revealed to have feelings for Chidori himself.
Nico Niiyama
An energetic girl who behaves in an eccentric manner by claiming she "sees fairies". This is revealed to be a lie in order to create a quirky persona, which she developed out of fear that people would dislike her because she is attractive, naturally intelligent, and comes from a rich family. For this reason, she becomes slightly bothered when people point out her intellect or exhibit more quirkiness than her. Despite of her unique personality, Nico is shown to have a mature side.
Tsuguhito Yuta
A sly and self-centered honors student and ladies' man. With the exception of Honoka, he attempts to dissociate himself from the other Kiznaivers, whom he views as "peculiar animals". Yuta's darkest secret is that he used to be severely overweight, due to being a latchkey kid that resorted to eating junk food instead of being fed proper meals; he is still an extremely fussy eater as a result of this.
Honoka Maki
An aloof and intelligent girl who outwardly maintains a cold and condescending attitude towards others. She used to be best friends with a terminally-ill girl named Ruru, and the two became a manga artist duo under the pen name Charles de Macking. While working on the project together, the two gained affection for each other; However, Honoka feared the pain of losing her would be unbearable if they were in a relationship.
Yoshiharu Hisomu
A handsome and distinct man shrouded in mystery. He is a masochist who becomes easily aroused when feeling or even thinking about (physical) pain. Despite this, he is seemingly harmless and spends most of his time smiling, although his bluntness sometimes unnerves his new friends.
