Rocket Girls/Characters

Yukari Morita

 * voiced by Eri Sendai

The story's protagonist, Yukari is stubborn, tough, petite, and incredibly lucky - in short, perfect astronaut material.


 * Only Sane Man: Yukari, especially from her perspective. Surrounded by an overly ambitious executive, a surprisingly cold-blooded doctor, a mad scientist, a jungle girl who can't shut up about "fireworks"? Yeah. And then there's.
 * Ordinary High School Student: Yukari prior to becoming an astronaut. For the first few weeks following her return to Earth, she tries to insist that she still is one.

Matsuri Morita

 * voiced by Hitomi Nabatame


 * The Chief's Daughter: Matsuri is technically one, although she doesn't fall into the traditional role of being the main character's love interest;
 * Fur Bikini: Matsuri's "native" clothing is a close cousin, being as it doesn't have much fur in it.
 * Jumped At the Call
 * Magical Native Islander: Matsuri can charm fishes to the shore by singing to them, uses the Jedi Mind Trick on a guard and survives 38 Kg. at 10G on her torso during a re-entry without even a bruised rib.
 * Nubile Savage
 * Trademark Favorite Food: Matsuri puts ketchup and mayonnaise on everything.

Akane Miura

 * voiced by Shizuka Hasegawa

The SSA's third astronaut, and the brains of the Beauty, Brains, and Brawn trio.


 * Determinator: She flat-out refused any help in order to become an astronaut.
 * Jumped At the Call: Akane turns Jumping at the Call Up to Eleven, spending her life savings to get to the SSA on the off chance that she might simply be allowed to apply.

Isao Nasuda

 * voiced by Takayuki Sugo

Kazuya Kinoshita

 * voiced by Takaya Kuroda


 * Salaryman: Kinoshita was one of these before he decided to follow his childhood dreams and become an astronaut. After failing screening due to a medical condition, he ended up becoming the SSA's mission director instead.

Satsuki Asahikawa

 * voiced by Mayumi Yanagisawa


 * Hyper Awareness: Satsuki makes an absurdly accurate "estimate" of Yukari's measurements just by eyeballing her. Later, she does the same with Akane.

Hiroyuki Mukai

 * voiced by Jin Domon

Motoko Mihara

 * voiced by Machiko Toyoshima

The SSA's chief chemist, Mihara is responsible for both the rocket's fuel and the astronauts' skintight spacesuits.


 * Mad Scientist: She's fascinated with oxidation, the faster the better. (In layman's terms, she really likes Stuff Blowing Up.) When she needed platinum as a catalyst for the new fuel she was testing, she used her own wedding ring to provide it!
 * Scary Shiny Glasses

Haruyuki Yasukawa

 * voiced by Kazunari Tanaka

SSA's first astronaut, he quits when he's ordered to lose a dangerous amount of weight. He becomes the island's taxi driver.


 * Butt Monkey
