Sayo Hikawa

Utama

Female

Height: 161 cm (5'3") Sayo is a third year student at Hanasakigawa Girls' High School and the guitarist of Roselia. She is the older, more serious twin of Hina. Sayo sees being the eldest twin as more of a burden than anything. Ever since they were younger, Hina has always beated Sayo in everything; whereas Hina can master new skills with ease, Sayo requires a great deal of information before she can even begin to practice. As a result, Sayo developed a severe inferiority complex towards Hina. One of Sayo's main reasons for starting to play the guitar was because "it was something Hina wasn't doing". A serious and fussy girl, Sayo is somewhat cold in nature, even towards those she is close to. She never cuts corners or accepts shoddy workmanship, and she tends to stubbornly deny liking or being fond of certain things, such as fluffy animals or french fries. In comparison to Hina, Sayo is stiff, sharp, and very stubborn when trying to do what she believes is best for others. She is very formal, addressing everyone by their last names, except for her sister and Tomoe. Like Yukina, she is prone to make snide or rude remarks, though often these remarks do not reflect how she actually feels.

Female

Height: 157 cm (5'2") Instruments: Roland FA-08 and Roland AX-Synth (Black) The student council president of Hanasakigawa Girls' High School and the last member to join Roselia as their keyboardist. She is also part of the library committee at school. Rinko is very shy, and is at first scared of the idea of performing in a live concert. She is also the band's costume designer and sews their outfits all by herself. Her hobbies are reading and playing online games, the latter through which she met her best friend, Ako. Socially awkward, Rinko is a shy and asocial girl who was initially too frightened to speak in front of others, let alone perform before them. She has a tendency to stammer when speaking, and usually keeps quiet until she feels comfortable. When she is set on or passionate about something, however, she does so with conviction, like piano or online games. Rinko also tends to get very excited about her passions, to the point where when she was explaining how Neo Fantasy Online worked to the other Roselia members, she was speaking in an alarming speed.

Ako Udagawa

Utama

Female

Height: 148 cm (4'10") Instruments: DW (Drum Workshop) Collector Series: Pure Maple five-piece drum set Ako is a student at Haneoka Girls' High School and Roselia's drummer. She admires Yukina and her older sister Tomoe, and is the best friend of Rinko, whom she calls "Rin-rin". Ako has chuunibyou tendencies, and has illusions of grandeur and magical powers. Rinko suspects this is the result from her playing online games frequently. She enjoys playing the role while keeping a realistic mentality. She is very cheery and noisy, and, despite only being two years younger than the other band members, is treated like the kid sister by the other characters due to her childlike appearance and personality. Ako often wonders how she can be a "cooler" person, and sometimes feels inadequate compared to her other band mates, especially since Yukina and Sayo occasionally ignore her or scoff at her ideas at times.

She is a powerful vocalist, sparking the admiration of the other Roselia members. She is next-door neighbors with Lisa Imai, who is also her childhood friend, and considers Ran Mitake somewhat of a rival. Yukina has a cold-blooded and cut-throat attitude towards reaching her goals, cutting down any obstacles in her path. She expects nothing less than perfect and takes practice very seriously. Because of this, she has no qualms with chiding or insulting someone if she feels they are underperforming. She is openly dismissive and unkind to people she deems below her standards. However, with the people she warms up to, she is not quite as nasty as usual. She also has a soft spot for cats, though she refuses to admit it.

Utama

Female

She follows gyaru fashion, but keeps her interest in amigurumi secret, since it does not match her image. She is good at baking cookies and is part of the dance club at school.

Outside of the band, Lisa is also friends with Moca, who is her coworker at her part-time job at the convenience store Lisa is a friendly and lively girl who appears mature and calm. Despite her appearance, Lisa acts as the mediator in tense situations. She's often credited with keeping Roselia together despite the members' contrasting personalities and disagreements at times. She often chides the others if she feels necessary, and brings balance to the group. Lisa is very caring in nature; she's able to notice when a friend is troubled and is often the first to try and help. She does her best to do what she can for others, sometimes to a fault, putting her all into helping someone regardless of her own feelings. She sometimes calls herself an "onee-san" (older sister), but the other characters have also compared her to a mother. Despite her proficient skills as a bassist, Lisa believes she is the least skilled member of Roselia. She gets sentimental and easily cries when her friends, especially Yukina, reaffirm just how much she is needed in the band or in general.

Yuki Nakashima

Rimi Ushigome

Pendukung

Female

Height: 150 cm (4'11") Instrument: ESP Viper Bass A student at Hanasakigawa Girls' High School and the bassist of Poppin'Party. Outside of the band, Rimi is friends with Misaki, and similarly to Himari, one of Kaoru's fangirls. Rimi's pink bass guitar is a hand-me-down from her older sister Yuri, who is two years older than her and is the lead vocalist of the band Glitter Green. During Rimi's high-school entrance ceremony, she heard Kasumi's self-introduction that was filled with boundless optimism, and this sparked her interest in her. Though Rimi wanted to change her cowardly and shy personality, she had initially been unable to do anything about it. At first, Rimi declined Kasumi's invitation to become a member of the band Poppin'Party because of her stage fright, but everything changed when she became inspired by Kasumi who sang on stage at Live House Space until Glitter Green, who were late because of the weather, arrived. She eventually found her confidence to overcome her stage fright and managed to perform with Kasumi and Arisa. After the show, she finally decided to join Kasumi's band as its third member and bassist. Rimi is a shy and reserved girl who admires her older sister and often gushes over her. She tends to compare herself to the others frequently and wishes she could be more confident and be able to "speak up" more often. Rimi is cute and sweet-natured and often blushes when flustered, but at times can be very determined and strong as well. As Rimi used to live in the Kansai region, her Kansai dialect sometimes slips into her speech when she stumbles on her sentences or is very nervous; she is a bit embarrassed about​ this.

Moca Aoba

Pendukung

Female

Height: 158 cm (5'2") The lead guitarist of the band Afterglow and a student at Haneoka Girls' High School. Moca has a sleepy demeanor and speaks with a slow, monotone voice, but can be surprisingly sly. Although everyone in Afterglow are childhood friends, Moca is particularly close to Ran. Outside of the band, she's also friends with Lisa, whom she works part-time with at the same convenience store, as well as Saaya. Moca doesn't have anything that she's super into, but will get really worked up about people she cares about. The only interests she has continued to like over a long period of time are instruments and food, although she also loves reading and collecting manga, especially shounen and action series. Moca is playful and often teases her friends to the point of having to be told to stop. Fairly confident and sure of herself, Moca often showcases and comments on her own charms, passing off things like having breadcrumbs on her face as "part of her cuteness". At times she refers to herself in third person as "Moca-chan". Although relaxed in most cases, her worries make her transparent. She loves Yamabuki Bakery to the extent of even labeling herself as "Yamabuki Bakery's #1 fan", and tells herself to buy all the bread so she can fill up her points reward card.

Sachika Misawa

Ran Mitake

Pendukung

Female

Height: 157 cm (5'2") Instrument: Gibson Les Paul Custom Chambered Blackout Stallion Red Guitar A student at Haneoka Girls' High School and the main vocalist and rhythm guitarist of Afterglow. She is the only child of the masters of a flower arrangement school that dates back to over 100 years ago. Ran is strong-willed, hates losing, and treasures her friends and family deeply. Despite this, she founded Afterglow with her childhood friends as an attempt to rebel against her father, who wants her to inherit the school. She considers Yukina Minato somewhat of a rival. Ran has an aloof nature, which hides her loneliness from other people. Deep down, she wishes to become closer to others, but can be socially awkward and has a tendency to trip over her words. She can be easily flustered and is somewhat hot-blooded. She keeps her problems to herself and brushes off others' attempts to help, but while she may appear cold or detached, the warmer side to her is best seen in her quiet fondness towards her friends, primarily the other members of Afterglow. Ran observes the other members while remaining unobtrusive and cares for them greatly; she often asks about their well-being or laughs at their jokes, albeit subtly. She has a tendency of saying "same as always" (itsumodoori), which usually means the band has done their best. She also has a habit of leaving others "on read", only reading text messages sent to her without replying to them.

She's weak to tear-jerkers and sentimental episodes, and is fairly romantic. She is also weak to being teased. Himari enjoys comparing the different sweets she buys from convenience stores and likes making them as well. She also likes cute things like clothing and stuffed animals, but wants to be seen as "cool" by others.

She is idolized for her cool, but mature way of handling things. Despite her mature, punk look, she is very caring towards others and is always there to lend support or a shoulder to cry on. While she is unable to understand Ako's behavior at times, she loves her sister and supports her. Tomoe is also shown to be hot-blooded and the type to rush into things head-first if she thinks someone she loves has been hurt. This has a tendency to backfire on her at times.

Her parents fight often and her father sometimes "disappears for three days because 'it felt so good'" and her mother tends to break things when she's mad. She also states that her parents don't allow her to be loud at home, which explains her energetic attitude outside. As such, she uses sports as an outlet. Hagumi also has an older brother, who taught her to play the guitar a bit in the past, which made learning to play the bass easier for her. Lively and passionate for sports, Hagumi is known for her sunny disposition and energetic nature. She is cheery and can be a bit of a show-off, but she usually doesn't take things too far. She tries to convince others to indulge in her sporty hobbies at times. Despite her tomboyish personality, Hagumi has an affinity for cute things and has a complex over her boyish appearance.

Pendukung

Female

Height: 161 cm (5'3") Yamato Maya is a second-year student at Haneoka Girls' High School and the drummer of PastelPalettes. She is also classmates with Yukina. Prior to joining the band, Maya was a studio musician.

Maya is a tomboy who appears awkward around other people; she isn't very social and does not take care of her hair and skin, and used to be a bit socially withdrawn prior to becoming a drummer. But around musical equipment, she becomes ecstatic and is impossible to stop when talking about her beloved hobby. Maya admires Eve for her looks and is also good friends with her, and Aya as well for her dedication on becoming a great idol. Because of her awkward nature, she is also often teased by Hina (unintentionally most of the time)​ and gently scolded by Chisato because of her unique "Huhehe" laugh. (Source: BanG Dream Wikia)

Hina Hikawa

Pendukung

Female

Height: 156 cm (5'1") Hina is a second-year student at Haneoka Girls' High School and is the guitarist of PastelPalettes. She is the younger, more bright-eyed twin of Sayo. A natural genius with an impeccable memory, Hina can acquire and master new skills very quickly, often even with just one attempt. She is very cheerful and carefree, but her relaxed mindset also makes her unable to understand other people's emotions, and as such doesn't sometimes notice if she's insulting them. With this, Hina is also very candid, always being honest and sure of both herself and her actions, though at times she ends up being more blunt than honest. Unlike Sayo, who dislikes being a twin, Hina seems to embrace it. She is very supportive of her sister and loves her regardless of how she treats her, but they often get into arguments due to their conflicting personalities. To add to this Hina wants to do most things together with her, but this ultimately has lead to Sayo quitting most of her hobbies as she felt like Hina was just copying her and then always did it better than her, thus feeding into her inferiority complex more.
