Eureka Seven/Characters

Eureka Seven has an absolutely whopping cast, so it only stands to reason that they all get a close looking at.

Renton Thurston
The main male protagonist. An ordinary boy bored with his ordinary life and with dreams of becoming a professional lifter, Renton's life is turned upside down when Eureka enters his life. He is one of the only people besides Eureka herself who can pilot the series's signature LFO, the Nirvash typeZERO.

 * He's even more of a Determinator in the movie,
 * Said Determinator Movie moment gets reenacted in Super Robot Wars Z 2: Hakai-Hen.
 * Gadgeteer Genius: Though it doesn't come up much, Renton is a very competent mechanic. He disassembles Dominic's bike in mere moments to blackmail him, knowing Dominic couldn't fix it without him.

"Voiced by: Kaori Nazuka (JP), Stephanie Sheh (EN)"


 * Action Mom: Though her children are clearly adopted.

 * This was probably due
 * Plus, her ailments really put her over the edge after
 * Machine Empathy: She's in tune with the Nirvash's feelings.
 * Morality Pet: To Holland. It's revealed in a flashback this is why he did a Heel Face Turn.
 * Mysterious Waif
 * Nice Girl: With the exception of a few moments in her dark past and her overall aloofness around people, Eureka is as nice as they come in comparison to Talho and Holland.
 * Oblivious to Love: She has a twofer on this one. While it takes her a while to notice, she is completely naive to the fact that Renton is in love with her. Upon noticing that and noticing that she has returning feelings for him, she tries every thing she can to let him know. Whereas despite her initial loyalty to Holland, she has no idea that he is obsessed with being her partner. Despite all the stuff he's done to try to get Renton out of the picture.

Talho Yuki
The pilot of Gekkostate's ship, the Gekko, and cover-girl for their magazine Ray=out. In a relationship with Holland.

 * Bare Your Midriff
 * Cool Big Sis
 * Important Haircut

 * Second Love: Holland's, which she has difficulty getting over.
 * Stripperiffic
 * Tsundere: Towards Holland.

Holland
The leader of Gekkostate. Holland was once a member of the military, but defected and formed an anti-government movement. To the public, he is known as the world's top amateur lifter and is Renton's longtime idol. He pilots the Terminus typeR909.

"Voiced by: Keiji Fujiwara (JP), Crispin Freeman (EN)"


 * Aloof Big Brother: Acts as this towards Renton
 * Badass
 * Bishounen: Mild case of this, despite his Perma-Stubble. Perma-Stubble which is all the more hilarious cause he's shown shaving in one episode.
 * Broken Pedestal: Mild case of this for Renton, who found Holland's image was somewhat more inflated than justified, even admitted by the man himself.
 * Character Development: He goes fromm a Jerkass Man Child to a
 * Domestic Abuse: Slap the ignorant hero around, Holland! Such a great way to win his loyalty and impress your crew!
 * A Father to His Men: Takes a while, but he grows into this over the course of the series.
 * Good Is Not Nice
 * Green-Eyed Monster: Arguably the reason for some of his worst Jerkass moments. Once he gets over it, he is a much nicer guy.
 * Jerkass: At his worst moments.
 * Jerk with a Heart of Gold: At his better moments.
 * Man Child: Immature in the way he deals with his anger.
 * Papa Wolf: Turns more and more into this for Eureka as the series goes on. See episode 38 for a particularly good example.
 * While it took him a while, he became this for Renton as well. Before he saw him as a rival for Eureka, but after going through his own Character Development, he protects Renton with the same ruthlessness he protects Eureka.
 * Sergeant Rock: Sure, Holland might be a MAJOR asshole at times, but he's respected and even liked by the Gekkostate crew because he's competent, wouldn't have them do something he wouldn't do himself, and despite his outward Jerkass, is rather concerned for their welfare.
 * Screaming Warrior
 * Supporting Leader
 * Took a Level In Kindness: He is a lot less of a jerkass and much more laid back in the manga. He only hit Renton once, and he arguably deserved it at the time. In the anime, this is a major part of his Character Development.
 * What the Hell, Hero?: After everyone else fails to get through to Holland about his treatment of Renton, its Eureka's crushed and soft-spoken disappointment in him for what he's done that finally turns him around.
 * Villain Team-Up: The movie version does this With Aim Liard in Super Robot Wars Z 2: Hakai-Hen
 * What the Hell, Hero?: After everyone else fails to get through to Holland about his treatment of Renton, its Eureka's crushed and soft-spoken disappointment in him for what he's done that finally turns him around.

 * Actual Pacifist: Only takes photographs, never fights.

Eureka's adopted children, who she took care of after she killed their parents during a military raid. They are fiercely protective of their "Mama" and like to play pranks on Renton, but warm up to him over time.

"Maurice is voiced by: Michiko Neya (JP), Mary Elizabeth McGlynn (EN) Maeter is voiced by: Eriko Kigawa (JP), Peggy O'Neil (EN) Linck is voiced by: Fumie Mizusawa (JP), Kate Higgins (EN)"


 * Bratty Half-Pint
 * Morality Pet: To Eureka.
 * My New Gift Is Lame: Eureka tends to get them text books as presents (usually ones that are too advanced for them). She does thought thought into it, she just has no idea what they might like. And they need an education, after all.
 * Named After Somebody Famous: The kids are named after Nobel Prize-winning Belgian writer Maurice Maeterlinck.
 * Shout-Out: They resemble the three little kids from the original Mobile Suit Gundam quite a lot.
 * Spoiled Brat: Being inexperienced as a mother, Eureka has a tendency to spoil them.

 * Bare Your Midriff
 * Cool Big Sis: Though Talho gets the lion's share of this.
 * Demoted to Extra
 * Team Mom

Ken-Goh
Weapons expert of the Gekkostate crew. Also the Gekko's original owner.

"Voiced by: Tamio Ohki (JP), Bob Papenbrook (EN, episodes 1-28), Kyle Hebert (EN, episodes 29-50)"


 * Badass Mustache
 * The Other Darrin: In the English dub, Bob Papenbrook died before recording all his lines and was replaced by Kyle Hebert.

Mischa
Physician of the Gekkostate crew. Sometimes gives advice to her crewmates.

"Voiced by: Yoko Soumi (JP), Mary Elizabeth McGlynn (EN)"


 * Grandma, What Massive Hotness You Have!
 * The Smart Guy: Being the token scientist of the group tends to do this.

Gonzy
An enigmatic old man who always hang around the Gekko.

"Voiced by: Takkou Ishimori (JP), Tony Oliver (EN)"

"Gonzy: You want some tea?"
 * Catchphrase: Most of the time he appears to a character he asks them the same question.


 * God Was My Co-Pilot: The ending reveals.
 * Nice Guy: Always willing to offer tea to anyone he talks to.
 * Stealth Hi Bye: He can appear behind someone - set down his carpet and all - in seconds. Possibly justified by the above trope.
 * The Watcher

Jobs & Woz
Best friends who snuck into the crew. Jobs handles hardware while Woz handles software.

"Jobs is voiced by: Kazayuki Shimura (JP), Dave Mallow (EN) Woz is voiced by: Yuuichi Nagashima (JP), Dave Wittenberg (EN)"


 * Ambiguously Gay: Jobs is discussed as such in the episode commentaries.
 * Machine Monotone
 * Named After Somebody Famous: Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, co-founders of Apple.
 * Nice Hat: Woz. Damn, it's a weird one, but it seems to double as a headset.

"Voiced by: Taro Yamaguchi (JP), Tony Oliver (EN)"


 * Eyes Always Shut
 * Good Scars, Evil Scars: Has a barely noticeable scar that divides his left eyebrow.
 * Nice Guy

Gidget
One of the more ordinary members of Gekkostate. Has a crush on Moondoggie.

"Voiced by: Fumie Mizusaka (JP), Jessica Straus (EN)"


 * Bare Your Midriff
 * Cool Big Sister: Though even less so than Gilda.
 * The Ditz
 * Weakness Turns Her On: In regards to Moondoggie, she mentions that looking at him makes her want to "scoop him up and help him along."

Moondoggie
The newest member of Gekkostate before Renton. Jealous of Renton, despite being viewed as a big brother figure by him.

"Voiced by: Mamoru Miyano (JP), Steve Staley (EN)"


 * Big Brother Mentor: Reluctantly towards Renton.
 * Butt Monkey: In an unusual take on the trope, he was the ship's official Butt Monkey before Renton arrived, and actually resents Renton from taking the position from him.
 * Do Not Call Me "Paul": Played with. He's ok with people calling him Moondoggie and no one really calls him by his real name. However he draws the line at being called "Brother Doggie" by Renton. He gets used to it later on.
 * Of course, as Renton grows as a character, Moondoogie reclaims his role as the Butt Monkey.
 * Meaningful Name: According to one of the definitions given by Urban Dictionary, a moondoggie is 1960s slang for a habitual marijuana user. Almost certainly deliberate given the series' large amounts of references to 60s counterculture (and the presence of a character named Stoner).
 * Only Known by Their Nickname: According to his license, his name is actually James Darren Emerson. Nobody ever calls him this.
 * Took a Level in Badass: Eventually

Dominic Sorel
An elite officer in the U.F. Force and Dewey's confidant. He also has the unenviable job of looking after Anemone who, despite being on the receiving end of a very abusive relationship with her, he is actually fond of.

"Voiced by: Shigenori Yamakazi (JP), Peter Doyle (EN)"

"Dominic: Is "west" the direction of the hand you hold a fork with?"
 * Anti-Villain: He takes orders from his superiors seriously, but considers himself a friend of Renton despite being on the opposite side.
 * Badass: You don't realize it until you see him twist the arms of thugs twice his size without any visible effort, as well as his ability to shoulder Anemone's improbably heavy Gulliver without extreme strain. There's also the stuff he does while saving Anemone in the manga, like shrugging off laser burns.
 * Bishonen: Even Anemone comments on it.
 * Determinator: He will NOT stand for something interfering with Anemone's well-being.
 * : Calling him evil is a bit of a stretch, but he will NOT stand for
 * Dogged Nice Guy: His endurance of Anemone's condescending manner and physical assault is legendary.
 * Easily Forgiven: The Gekkostate crew decides to trust him implicitly as soon as he shows similarities to Renton, especially his commitment to the one he loves
 * Evil Counterpart: Again, not exactly evil, but he fits this role to Renton.
 * Good-Looking Privates
 * Heel Realization: Dominic realizes how sadistic his organization is  Cue the Vomit Discretion Shot and
 * Love Martyr: For Anemone
 * My Country, Right or Wrong
 * No Sense of Direction: You know you're bad when Renton calls you out on it.


 * Not So Different: He's basically Renton if Renton joined the Military instead of Gekkostate. When they first meet each other, naturally they see each other as enemies, but both of them have the same goal in mind regarding their personal and professional lives: Protecting the woman they care about. In Renton's case, Eureka and in Dominic's case, Anemone. They form a temporary truce to get help for the girls.
 * Punch Clock Villain
 * Orphan's Ordeal: Episode 44. It helps to explain why he's so devoted to Anemone - hers is the closest connection he has with another person.
 * Subordinate Excuse: While Anemone doesn't outrank him, it should be clear that he chose this position for something more than a good paycheque.
 * Wide-Eyed Idealist: A bit subtler than most, but still very naive about how the world and human relationships work.

Dewey Novak
The main antagonist. Once a disgraced military official following Holland's defection, he has risen to power with his maniacal devotion to "save" the world from the Coralians. .

 * Ambition Is Evil
 * Authority Equals Asskicking
 * Badass

 * Colonel Badass
 * Big Bad
 * Bitch in Sheep's Clothing
 * Complete Monster: When you're such a blatant Adolf Hitler Expy, it's almost impossible to not be this.
 * Dark Messiah: Becomes one, when the becomes laid out to us.
 * Faux Affably Evil: While he can be charming and seductive in order to get what he wants, he is ultimately revealed to be a coldhearted sociopath driven solely by his hatred for the Scub Coral and his brother, Holland.
 * Jerkass: Hides it very well, but Holland looks like a saint compared to this prick.
 * Knight Templar: He sincerely believes in his cause, and he's all the more nasty because of it.
 * Lack of Empathy
 * Magnificent Bastard
 * Manipulative Bastard:
 * Mean Character, Nice Actor: His US voice actor, Kim Strauss, is also an Amazon.com bestselling author for a childrens' book.
 * Pet the Dog: In a flashback  in the manga. May count as both a Crowning Moment of Heartwarming, Tear Jerker, and Alas, Poor Villain all at the same time.
 * Posthumous Character: In The Movie.
 * The Sociopath
 * Ubermensch
 * Villain Team-Up: With the Frost Bros. and Gym Gingham in Super Robot Wars Z

"Voiced by: Ami Koshimizu (JP), Kari Wahlgren (EN)"


 * Ace Pilot: She's a great pilot who prefers ambush her opponents and rain blow after blow upon them. However,
 * Alpha Bitch: Acts this way toward Dominic often, but it's probably so that she won't have to acknowledge her feelings for him.
 * Badass Adorable
 * Beneath the Mask: Acts like a Rich Bitch and Daddy's Little Villain.
 * Cute and Psycho: She loves violence, at least when she is on her Psycho Serum.
 * Daddy's Little Villain: For Dewey, at first.
 * Dark Action Girl: "Ha ha! Wow, what great reactions! That why - I'm going to have to kill you!!!

 * Psychotic Smirk: Quite often

 * Rich Bitch: Acts like one, but actually has very little personal belongings.
 * Slasher Smile: Almost all the time when fighting. Geez!
 * Sweet Tooth: In the manga.
 * In the manga, it probably starts during their childhood.
 * Tyke Bomb
 * What Does She See in Him?: Much of why Anemone treated Dominic with disdain, was because the attention he gives her was what she wanted from Dewey. Even though Dewey treats her less like a person and more like an object for war.
 * You Gotta Have Pink Hair
 * Yum Yum: Mmmmm, strawberry jam.
 * Sweet things in general in the manga.

In the second game, he, Ruri, and Moondoggie fight against the Azure group and corrupted members of the military, including some of Sumner's old friends, to prevent mass destruction.


 * The Cameo: Sumner and Ruri make a brief appearance in the anime.

Ruri
"Voiced by: Michelle Ruff (EN)"

Sumner's love interest. In New Wave, she left New Wave Academy after learning about the military's insidious motives. Although her efforts to rebel lead her to aligning with black market dealers, she eventually reunites with Sumner long enough to help him realize what path he should follow.

In New Vision, Ruri is able to meet Sumner again, and they (and Moondoggie) try to stop a military scheme that is driving their own pilots insane. After the conflict is over, she and Sumner remain together.

Steven Bisson
"Voiced By: Liam O'Brien (EN, Uncredited)"

One of Sumner's companions when he was a member of Sawyer Team. Between New Wave and New Vision, an experimental drug given to him by the military drives him insane, turning him into one of the main antagonists of the second game.

Axel Thurston
Renton's strict yet loving grandfather.

"Voiced by: Takeshi Aono (JP), Steve Kramer (EN)"


 * Badass Grandpa
 * Cool Old Guy
 * Crazy Prepared: In the manga, he tells Holland to go to work while throwing a wrench from his toolkit at his head that's specifically labeled "For Holland".
 * Jerk with a Heart of Gold
 * Papa Wolf
 * Go-Karting with Bowser: He and Dominic got along really well, even though Dominic was still on the villain team at the time. He even taught Dominic how to fix his bike, and Dominic promised to check up on his grandson. Then again, he never finds out what side Dominic was on at the time.

Charles and Ray Beams
A pair of mercenaries-for-hire and a loving couple. They hold a grudge against Holland and Gekkostate in general.

"Charles is voiced by: Jurota Kosugi (JP), Patrick Seitz (EN) Ray is voiced by: Aya Hisakawa (JP), Melissa Fahn (EN)"

"Ray: It's far too late. For everything!! Renton? Eureka, the one you're there to protect; took every happy future away from your mama. Now it's time to take everything away FROM YOUR FUTURE EUREKA!!! Renton, you have been possessed by a horrible and dangerous monster. But it's alright. Mama will save you. And we'll all go together where CHARLES IS WAITING FOR US!!!"
 * Battle Couple
 * Changeling Fantasy: They seem to provide an interesting take on this
 * Despair Event Horizon: for Ray.

 * Go Out With a Bang / Go Out with a Smile
 * Hotblooded Sideburns: Charles has them.
 * Mama Bear: Ray.
 * Neat Freak: Both keep their ship, the Swan, utterly spotless,
 * Papa Wolf: Charles.

 * Self-Serving Memory: It wasn't her that came to the conclusion However upon realizing that Renton is protective of Eureka, she's snaps. Believing that Renton has always been her son, as well as believing that Eureka is some sort of monster out to possess and consume him. While it's implied that Ray and Charles due to their SOF days, know what Eureka really is, Renton does not know that Eureka is a Humanoid Coralian.  So all the rants he hears from Ray leave him more confused and concerned about her sanity than it ever convinces him.
 * Shout-Out: Their names, to pianist Ray Charles and or designers Charles and Ray Eames
 * Tragic Monster: Ray embodies this


 * Villainous Breakdown: Ray loses it when . It's heart-rending to see the aftermath of her utterly trashing the Swan in her grief. It gets worse when Renton states he'll fight her to stop her, in an effort to talk her down.
 * Yandere: Ray is a Mama Bear variety.

Master Norb
