The main character. A citizen of Japoness, a country of Terra II which resembles feudal Japan & guardian of the Japoness Sabers: Lime, Cherry, & Bloodberry. He eventually discovers the three marionettes and forms a sort of family with them. Initially, Otaru seems to be very asexual and becomes constantly overwhelmed by the marionettes and their affection, which he returns only platonically, and equally to the three. His weapon is a sai in which the blade can extend to become a sword and the tail of it can be used to reel his friends to safety. Has a distinctive two-color hair-style of light brown on the front and dark brown in the back.
Yuka Imai
Lime
Utama
Female
A marionette possessing the otome kairo, a circuit that enables her to act almost indistinguishable from a human girl. She is the most child-like of the main marionettes, with a naive, lively, sunny, peppy and playful personality . ("Yoo-hoo" becomes something of Lime's catchphrase), and thus frequently asks all manner of questions about life to Otaru. The quickest of the three; she has amazing speeds that can even out rival the Hanagata Mitsurugi 3000GT seen in Ep 1. She has long blue hair that is pulled back with a long yellow scarf with a red ornament bubble. Her clothing consists of a white, yellow trimmed, "jacket" over a black bodysuit. When Walking, Lime's feet make a squeaking sound not unlike a cross between gears squeaking and the squeak of a toy hammer.
Megumi Hayashibara
Cherry
Utama
Female
Another of Japoness' otome kairo marionettes. She is the most maternal of the three & acts like the perfect stereotype of the Japanese wife, excelling at cooking and doing everything to please "Master" Otaru, who is the subject of her frequent romantic daydreams in which she goes into over-romantic frenzies and loses sight of her current objectives. She is however quite intelligent and equipped with the best sensors of the three. She is often mocked by Bloodberry for being too sweet & mild and is often ridiculed for being flat-chested. Instead, her fantasies and amorous interactions with Otaru tend to focus on her behind. She has two long tails of purple hair and usually dresses in a pink kimono.
Yuri Shiratori
Bloodberry
Utama
Female
The third of Japoness' otome kairo marionettes. She represents the aggressive side of femininity, being quite loud, boisterous, headstrong, impulsive and very amorous. She is by far the bustiest, and is openly proud of this fact, often teasing Cherry in particular. She is also the most sexual of the three, often vowing to "make a man" out of Otaru, smothering him with her large breasts and endless amounts of physical affection and pressuring him to marry her. For his part Otaru is much more receptive to Bloodberry's overt advances than the average harem protagonist, often going as far as to compliment her massive bust, to her delight. She is very brave & fierce in battle and has the most raw physical power. She dresses in a black and orange bodysuit and her red hair in a high ponytail.
Akiko Hiramatsu

Hanagata often tries to seduce Otaru with his underdeveloped, rib-exposing chest. Eventually the five of them settle in a somewhat peaceful coexistence and friendship. Has a younger brother named Yumeji. (from Wikipedia)
