As the season progresses, each team will have a new member compared to the five members only rule. As well as the new teams, there are also the adults who may or may not provide advice to the Rifflers. Some celebrity characters like Nico would only appear for two episodes.

The Rifflers
or the alternative...
 * A Day in The Limelight: Any episode which has the Tek No brothers in the limelight, always expect Tek to take No's thunder
 * Five Man Band:
 * The Hero: Tag (Sometimes The Lancer)
 * The Lancer:Jeremy (Sometimes The Big Guy)
 * The Big Guy: Eloise(She's also combined with The Hero considering where the Rifflers got their team name.)
 * The Smart Guy: Gabriel (Sometimes The Chick)
 * The Chick: Samira (Since she's the nice one. Sometimes The Smart Guy.)
 * The Sixth Ranger(s): Tek and No
 * The Hero: Eloise
 * The Lancer: Samira
 * The Big Guy: Tag
 * The Smart Guy: Jeremy
 * The Chick: Gabriel
 * The Sixth Ranger(s): Tek and No
 * Tag and Gabriel are The Hero and The Smart Guy by default eventually. However, Gabriel suffered a knee injury in the semi-finals that ruled him for the finals. Samira and Eloise sometimes swictch between The Chick and The Big Guy and vice versa. Jeremy is the Lancer as he sometimes threatens to leave the team and Tek is also The Big Guy whose Tsundere tendencies get in the way.
 * Official Couple: Two actually. Tag and Eloise and Jeremy and Samira
 * Red Oni Blue Oni: Subverted. Despite their nickname being the Bleus de Port Marie, Rifflers have personality traits which associate them with the red or blue oni depending on what day they have.
 * Gabriel is the blue oni whilst Jeremy is the red oni.
 * The girls aren't getting away with this. Samira was the blue oni in Season 2 despite having the red oni look but she is now the red oni as of Season 3 whilst Eloise was the red oni in Season 2 but turned into the blue oni in Season 3
 * Don't think the twins are getting away with it that easy. Tek is the red oni whilst No is the blue oni. However Tek is the blue oni whilst No is the red oni
 * The only one who has a combination of both is Tag.
 * Royal Brat: With the exception of Gabriel and Jeremy, the enite Riffler-tachi are royal brats but they don't know it.
 * Tag's old man was a famous revolutionary in Argentina and his mom was a lawyer. After he was released from prison, Pablo was already rich, surprising Tag.
 * Eloise was born with a silver spoon in her mouth since her family are already the richest family in Port Marie with a few connections to Brooklyn and Rio De Janerio.
 * Samira's dad was a millionaire footballer. With 6-8 kids to boot and the job promotion to PSG he looked like he was in heaven until the PSG fans were kicking the living crap out of him. The thought of anyone mentioning it sends Samira off the rails because when she went to one of her dad's matches, he got beaten up really bad and it cost him his career which is why Samira like to keep her dad's legacy alive.
 * Tek and No's dad was a famous athlete in Algeria.
 * Six Student Clique: Although they all don't go to the same school, they seem to fit this.
 * The Head: Sebastien Echevarne (Tag is really the head but has a Jock-ish appearance)
 * The Muscle: Samira Boudouce (This could be Eloise's role but Samira is a Tsundere.)
 * The Quirk: Tek and No Zaim (They might be smart but they're not Gab's level.)
 * The Pretty One: Eloise Riffler (Usually against her will)
 * The Smart One: Gabriel Daula (He wears glasses and eventually gets a scolarship to the best hig school in Paris. (Lucky guy.)
 * The Wild One: Jeremy Webert (Since he's more impulsive)
 * Nakama: All seven of them.

Sebastian "Tag" Arias Oler (Formerly Tagano)


Sebastian Arais Oler AKA: Sebastian Tagano AKA: Tag is the leader(as well as the captain) of the Rifflers thus making him the main character. He is a fan of football and hopes to be one. Tag is considered the coolest kid in school but he can be a bit of a bully and is prone to be jealous. Despite this, Tag is clever, charismatic and has fangirls chasing after him.

Tag was born in Argentina to Pablo Arias Echevarne and Sophia Oler. By the time he was born, Argentina was already a communist state. Not long after, Sophia passed away so Pablo took baby Sebastian to France. Tag's childhood wasn't easy. He got into trouble a lot and was the Riffler institute's school bully because. Tag is very picky at choosing his friends but only accepts them in his group because of their passion for football.

 * The Ace: In his own right. He's smart, athletic, charismatic etc.

 * Brilliant but Lazy: Subverted. Tag is smart than he appears.

 * Deadpan Snarker: He know's he's messing with you. That, he gets from his father.
 * Distaff Counterpart: Him and Samira
 * Drill Sergeant Nasty: In one episode, he forces his crew to do training via martial arts. It was justified since their opponents were the Chinese team.
 * Fan Service: A rare male example. Add bonus points for his hellraiser past as a kid, shirtless scenes and team dad tendencies.
 * Grumpy Bear: If the Rifflers find something wrong with Tag's mood swings and bad temper, no matter how serious it is, they always put the blame on Eloise.
 * Henpecked Husband: Eloise's favourite passtime in Season 2 was trying to correct Tag. And they're not even married.

 * Shirtless Scene: If you wonder why Eloise dates him.
 * Word of God has said that by the time Street Football: New Generation starts airing, Tag will be 16 so there will be more shirtless scenes from him. Fangirls, if your name isn't Eloise Riffler, you got another thing coming.
 * Spexico: His father is from Argentina.
 * Team Dad: He's protective of Tek and No and often refers to Eloise as if she's his wife.(And it will happen.)

 * Tsundere: He is to Jeremy and Eloise on some occasions.
 * He's also hostile towards authority and the upper class.(Since they were responsible for the death of his mother.)

Eloise Riffler


Since she was a baby, Eloise has been surrounded by the finest things in life. Sadly for her, her parents don't pay any attention to her. She literally has fanboys drooling over her for her fanservice points, which she inherited from her mother. Despite this, Eloise doesn't want to be seen as a rich jerk.(This is why Tag resented her.)

Eloise's grandfather owns the Riffler institute. Because of this, she has free access anytime she likes.

 * Action Girlfriend: Yep. That's her alright.
 * The Big Guy: She's more hot tempered than Samira.
 * Bad Liar: Eloise isn't good from keeping secrets from Tag.

 * Bishoujo
 * Bokukko
 * Butt Monkey:Poor kid never gets a break.

 * Hot Amazon: Why do you think she's Tag's girlfriend?
 * Ms. Fanservice: If anything, she gets the most fanservice in the series and she's pissed off about it.
 * Nice Job Breaking It Hero: Samira actually called her our for this when she ratted Atsuko out.

 * Idiot Hero: Despite being The Lancer, Jeremy could even star in his own Shonen manga comic.
 * Jerk Jock: He's even worse than Tag.

 * As of Season 4, Samira is the oldest member of the Rifflers.
 * Tomboy and Girly Girl: Samira is actually the tomboy.
 * Tsundere: A Type B in Season 2 but a Type A in season 3. Samira is the easily angered one(Although not on Tag's level) and Takeshi had to learn the hard way.
 * Whos Laughing Now: After getting in trouble for something Yacine did again, Samira finally has enough which includes berating him much to the surprise of Tag, Eloise, Jeremy and No. The real kicker is, everyone thought that Samira was the easy going one who never gets mad at the littlest thing.
