This is a list of characters that appear in the Muv-Luv franchise. The series was created by âge in 2003 with the release of Muv-Luv and its most recent entry is Schwarzesmarken.

Shirogane Takeru
Shirogane Takeru (白銀武)

Takeru is a teenager that lives in Yokohama, Japan. He is both the protagonist of Muv-Luv and its sequel Muv-Luv Alternative, as well as a recurring character in the Muv-Luv franchise.

Takeru is first introduced in Muv-Luv Extra as an underachieving student going to the Hakuryou Hiiragi school. His early appearances show a lazy and indecisive character that drives much of the dramatic plot. Takeru later finds himself in the setting of Muv-Luv Unlimited, a parallel reality that he is transported to one week before the conclusion of Extra where the majority of the human race has been wiped out by an alien race called the BETA. During Unlimited, Takeru's personality is noticeably out-of-place in the post-apocalyptic world; His care-free attitude causes him great distress as he trains to become a soldier. The conclusion of Unlimited sees Takeru become a full soldier, though it is revealed that Yuuko's plan to save humanity, Alternative IV, has failed.

The sequel, Muv-Luv Alternative, begins with Takeru entering a time loop and appearing at the beginning of Unlimited a second time, this time with knowledge of what went wrong before. Takeru is markedly more stoic and focused in this iteration than his early appearances, possessing a decisive capacity that he lacked before. Throughout the game, Takeru takes steps to prevent the failure of Alternative IV in order to prevent humanity's loss, while simultaneously working with Kouzuki Yuuko to uncover the nature of his reality-warping jumps.

Takeru is the co-inventor of the XM3 Tactical Surface Fighter operating system, which plays an important role in defeating the BETA.

Takeru also appears either as a mentioned character or as a supporting character in various parts of the Muv-Luv franchise, most notably during Muv-Luv Unlimited: The Day After.

Kagami Sumika


Sumika is Takeru's childhood friend that lives in the house next door. She has red hair with her distinguishing figure being her ahoge. When she's first introduced in Muv-Luv Extra, Sumika is very attached to Takeru and wakes him up every morning to walk to school with her. During Extra, Sumika competes directly with Meiya for Takeru's affections, and eventually admits that her feelings go beyond that of a childhood friend.

Sumika is noticeably absent in Muv-Luv Unlimited with few clues to her whereabouts. Takeru finds her house destroyed at the beginning of the story, but no confirmation on her fate is found. Takeru is happy about this in a way, saying that it's better she's not around to witness the collapsing world. Nevertheless, Sumika's absence in Unlimited and later Muv-Luv Alternative affects Takeru greatly and drives the dramatic plot.

Mitsurugi Meiya


Meiya is a transfer student that somehow sneaks into Takeru's room one morning, kicking off Muv-Luv Extra. She has long blue hair and carries around a large katana wherever she goes. She is introduced as the heir to the prestigious Mitsurugi Group, a wealthy conglomerate that seems to have limitless funds. Meiya leverages her wealth to gain Takeru's affections over Sumika, but eventually becomes friends with Sumika over the course of the game despite this.

In Muv-Luv Unlimited, Meiya appears as a cadet in Unit 207 based out of the Yokohama UN base. Meiya's personality makes her one of the most level-headed of the squad and an asset in their training. In Muv-Luv Alternative, Meiya is revealed to be part of the Shogunate's family with her twin sister (said to be deceased in Extra) being the Shogun. Due to superstitious beliefs, Meiya was adopted by the Mitsurugi family to keep the two apart.

Sakaki Chizuru


Chizuru is first seen as Takeru's class representative in Muv-Luv Extra. She is a long-haired brunette that typically wears her hair in two large braids. She is also the captain of the slowly dwindling Lacrosse club at Hakuryou Hiiragi. Due to her personality, she frequently argues with Ayamine Kei over trivial matters.

In Muv-Luv Unlimited and Muv-Luv Alternative, Sakaki Chizuru retains many of her character traits and is a cadet in Unit 207. Her father is revealed to be the president of Japan.

Ayamine Kei


Ayamine is Takeru's classmate and wears her black hair short. She is portrayed as a quiet, eccentric girl with a tendency utilize deadpan comedy. She frequently argues with Chizuru.

In Muv-Luv Unlimited and Muv-Luv Alternative, Ayamine is a cadet in Unit 207 and her arguments with Chizuru are expanded upon. Ayamine prefers tactical on-the-spot decision making, whereas Chizuru prefers well-laid plans. It's revealed that this prejudice against planning comes from her bias against inept superiors and corruption.

Tamase Miki


Known to her friends as "Tama", Miki is one of Takeru's classmates. She has stark pink hair and she exhibits some superficial similarities to a cat. She can be quite clumsy and eccentric.

In Muv-Luv Unlimited and Alternative, Miki is a cadet in Unit 207 with the other main characters. Her specialty is the sniper rifle. Her father is the Undersecretary of the UN.

Yoroi Mikoto


Mikoto is one of Takeru's male classmates, with whom he often plays Valgern-On and various other video games. He is portrayed throughout the trilogy with short, light blue hair. His father is an adventurer, and he frequently takes Mikoto with him on his adventures. During these adventures, Mikoto frequently gets lost or stranded in distant places, which results in his absences from school. As a result, Mikoto is an unwitting survivalist.

Jinguuji Marimo


In Muv-Luv Extra, Marimo is Takeru's English teacher. She has been Yuuko's best friend since their attendance at Hakuryou Hiiragi, although their friendship is odd at best. Yuuko seems to blackmail Marimo into wearing various cosplay outfits. Marimo is also revealed to have had a terrible history of dating.

In Unlimited and Alternative, Marimo is Unit 207's instructor. Her caring attitude makes her an ideal mentor, despite her traumatic past as a Tactical Surface Fighter pilot.

Kouzuki Yuuko


Yuuko is introduced as Takeru's physics teacher in Muv-Luv Extra. She's been best friends with Marimo since their days at Hakuryou Hiiragi, despite their somewhat odd rapport. Yuuko is portrayed as very carefree and eccentric, in many ways embodying a mad scientist. She's constantly scribbling her ideas on the board and pieces of paper instead of teaching high school physics.

In Muv-Luv Unlimited and Alternative, Yuuko is Yokohama base's second-in-command. As the lead scientist on the base, her work is shrouded in mystery, although it is revealed that the plan's name is "Alternative IV". Unlike her Extra universe counterpart, Yuuko is cold and calculating in the alternate reality.

Tsukuyomi Mana


Mana is introduced in Extra as Meiya's head maid. She's appears to be capable of incredible feats due to the wealth of the Mitsurugi family that she has at her disposal.

Mana's role is expanded upon in Muv-Luv Unlimited and is revealed to be a Lieutenant in the Imperial Royal Guard. While no longer Meiya's maid, she is assigned as Meiya's protector. Initially Mana is very suspicious of Takeru, commenting that it's strange that a dead man is in Yokohama.

Kamiyo Tatsumi / Tomoe Yukino / Ebisu Minagi
 / / 

Collectively known as the "Three Idiots" by Takeru, these three are maid trainees serving under Mana for the Mitsurugi household. They are very antagonistic to Takeru and frequently attempt to get out of their jobs when he is involved.

In Unlimited and Alternative, they are revealed to be serving as second lieutenants in the Royal Imperial Guard under Mana and are notably more serious than their Extra counterparts.

Suzumiya Akane


Akane is first introduced in the visual novel Kimi ga Nozomu Eien, as Suzumiya Haruka's younger sister. She regularly visits Haruka She initially treats both the Kimi ga Nozomu Eien's protagonist Takayuki Narumi and Mitsuki Hayase as older siblings until she finds out they have been seeing each other behind the now-comatose Haruka's back. While Haruka is in hospital, she visits her every day. She, like Mitsuki, is a competitive swimmer, but feels as if she can never match Mitsuki, who she initially looks up to. Later, there are hints given that Akane feels something more for Takayuki, but these are not explored fully in the series.

Akane later became a main character in the visual novel Akane Maniax, where she is pursued romantically by Jōji Gōda (although to little success). Notably, her future rival Sakaki Chizuru and the main cast of Muv-Luv are initially introduced in this visual novel.

By the events of Muv-Luv, Akane is a friend to Chizuru and a rival on the Lacrosse team. She is notably more reserved than she was in Kimi ga Nozomu Eien as a result of her experiences. She features prominently in Chizuru's story.

Later, during the events of Muv-Luv Alternative, she is introduced as an existing member of squad A-01 under the command of Isumi Michiru.
