This is the character sheet for the Anime and Manga series Chrono Crusade. Unmarked spoilers ahead, in order to make the page read a little better.

Voiced by: Tomoko Kawakami (JP) Hillary Haag (EN)


The Hero and protagonist of the series (although you could make a case for Chrono being that), Rosette is a young exorcist with the Magdalan Order. Her talent with a gun is only matched by her talent for destroying things and getting into trouble. Although she has a hot temper and a loud mouth, underneath it all she's a genuinely caring person that wants to live her life to the fullest.


 * Action Girl: Manga Rosette. Rosette starts off this way in the anime, too, although she goes through Chickification as the show continues.
 * In the manga's final volume.
 * Badass Normal: In the manga. The anime towards the end of the series.
 * Beast and Beauty: With Chrono, sort of. They look like this, but she definitely doesn't match the typical personality.
 * Belligerent Sexual Tension: With Chrono.
 * Berserk Button: Don't toy with her regarding her brother, or if you're a demon, talk about killing a mortal. You will regret it.
 * Blessed With Suck: In the anime.
 * Blue Eyes: The innocent, "hero" variety.
 * Bob Haircut: Rosette had her hair cut as a bob soon after she joined the Order, although she grew it back out again.
 * Cain and Abel: It turns out Joshua's very loyal to Aion and doesn't want to give up his horns...so Rosette and Joshua end up on opposite sides of a war as Rosette desperately tries to get through to him.
 * The Caretaker: Rosette was almost this for her younger brother. Joshua was desperate to keep her from having to devote her life to him, which was part of his motivation for going with Aion.
 * Cast From Lifespan / Deal With the Devil: Chrono's powers draw from Rosette's lifespan. She says she probably won't live to 30.
 * Cat Smile
 * Comedic Sociopathy: Rosette's antics come across this way in several scenes, although when she realizes someone is badly hurt by it she's portrayed as shocked and upset.
 * Conveniently an Orphan: Rosette and Joshua's parents died in a shipwreck.
 * Deaths Hourglass: Rosette's watch.
 * : It happens much earlier in the anime than it does in the manga.
 * Destructive Saviour
 * Determinator: Particularly in the manga.
 * Distressed Damsel: Towards the end of the anime.
 * Domestic Abuse: Some of Rosette's Tsundere antics towards Chrono come across as this--at one point in the manga he's even show laying in his own blood after a beating. Always Played for Laughs.
 * Don't Say Such Stupid Things: Rosette gives Chrono this speech in the manga, after his Heroic BSOD.
 * Don't Split Us Up: In the backstory, Rosette was very upset at the idea of Joshua going by himself to the Magdalene Order. Joshua was much more complacent about the idea.
 * Doomed Hometown: Seventh Bell Orphanage, where Joshua and Rosette were sent after their parent's deaths. See Where I Was Born and Razed in Joshua's tropes.
 * Drives Like Crazy
 * Evil Costume Switch: In the anime, she starts to wear a black dress when
 * Fan Service Pack: Rosette's first uniform is fairly modest. Then she gets a new uniform with slits in her skirt up to her hips and a vest that looks much like a corset.
 * Feminine Women Can Cook: Rosette's a tomboy, and she's portrayed as a pretty poor cook.
 * Genki Girl
 * The Hero: Her role in the Five Man Band. (Or...well...Four Man Band.)
 * Girlish Pigtails: Rosette's pigtails seem to reflect her aging. As a child, she has full pigtails. As she ages, part of her hair comes down, and as an adult they vanish completely.
 * Goggles Do Nothing: Rosette has goggles on her forehead from the beginning all the way until when she gets her militia outfit. She uses them a grand total of one time.
 * Go Out With a Smile: Both versions., in the manga.
 * Handicapped Badass
 * The Hero Dies: Given the nature of her contract with Chrono, it's a Foregone Conclusion that Rosette is going to die young. When, where and how it happens, however, is an unknown, which contributes to the tension of the story.
 * Hero Insurance: Rosette can be pretty destructive sometimes. However, the series actually explains how she gets away with it--the Order pays for some of the damages and also has to bribe the local media not to report on their involvement with the destruction.
 * Hey Its That Voice: Hillary Haag is an ADV regular, so it's possible you'll recognize her if you're a dub fan. Oh, and in the Japanese? She's Utena.
 * Home Sweet Home: Manga: After her adventures, Rosette returns back to the orphanage she grew up in and becomes a caretaker there.
 * Hot Blooded
 * Huge Guy Tiny Girl: Chrono and Rosette, when Chrono is in his true form.
 * Iconic Item: The pocket watch.
 * In Vino Veritas: When Rosette gets drunk at a dinner party, she ends up being a "forceful drunk" (as Chrono notes), while also revealing anxiety over her shortened lifespan and worry over her brother.
 * Kid With the Leash: Subverted and occasionally double subverted. Chrono usually doesn't need anyone to keep him on the straight-and-narrow. Usually.
 * Knight Templar Big Sister: She doesn't hesitate to attempt to chase after Aion when Joshua is taken, even though she's only twelve years old at the time. Chrono admits in the manga that the main reason he made the contract with her is that he knew she'd run off alone if he didn't.
 * Large Ham: "I'LL KILL YOU WITH THIS SPOON!"
 * Lethal Chef: Chrono is usually the victim of her cooking. To be fair, while she was horrible as a kid, Chrono admits her cooking later in life actually isn't that bad--it just looks poisonous.
 * Manic Pixie Dream Girl / Blithe Spirit
 * Masculine Girl Feminine Boy: Chrono and Rosette, particularly when it comes to housework. This tends to be exaggerated even more in fanfic.
 * The Matchmaker: The manga seems to imply that Rosette is matchmaking
 * Meaningful Name: Rosette's last name is "Christopher" - that is, "Christ-bearer", which fits with her role as a demon fighter, but more importantly
 * Messianic Archetype: Sort of. Not The Messiah.
 * Mind Control Eyes: in the anime.
 * Mr. Vice Guy: She gambles, she gets rip-roaring drunk at Satella's dinner party, she swears like a sailor...and she's a nun.
 * Naughty Nuns: Rosette's militia uniform has slits that go high enough to show her bloomers and a corset.
 * No Indoor Voice
 * Nuns Are Funny: Particularly in the earlier volumes, when her very untypical personality for a nun is Played for Laughs.
 * Nuns Are Mikos
 * Nun Too Holy: If you had to pick one trope to define Rosette, this would be it.
 * Official Couple: With Chrono, although it doesn't get truly official until near the end.
 * Orphans Ordeal: At first this is averted, but in the second half of the manga she occasionally admits in inner monologue that her parents' deaths did have an effect on her--she hates sitting and waiting because she was forced to while 'the adults' worked out her family's estate, for example.
 * Phenotype Stereotype
 * Pinocchio Nose: In the "Marionette Train" arc, Chrono points out that Rosette babbles when she's lying.
 * Red Oni Blue Oni: Inverted--Rosette is hotblooded, but wears blue. Chrono is the voice of reason, but wears red.
 * Savvy Guy Energetic Girl: Rosette is the Energetic Girl to Chrono's Savvy Guy.
 * Second Love: Rosette isn't the first person Chrono fell in love with.
 * Single Woman Seeks Good Man: Her and Chrono.
 * Spanner in The Works: To Aion's plans in the manga.
 * Spell My Name With an S: There's actually official art that mislabels her as "Rozetto".
 * Star Crossed Lovers: Rosette and Chrono just can't get a true "normal" romance, no matter how much either of them want it.
 * Tsundere
 * Vitriolic Best Buds: Chrono and Rosette. There's a reason she coins the term "Super Noogie".
 * To an almost equal extent, Rosette and Satella. They gripe almost constantly at one other, even after they become friends underneath the teasing.
 * Your Days Are Numbered: Symbolized by the watch she wears on her neck showing her remaining time alive. The mangaka explains in an Omake that the notion of having a limited time or lifespan is the main theme of the manga.
 * Zettai Ryouiki: In her militia outfit, she wears thigh-high stockings, leaving just a bit of tantilizing bare skin shown through the slits of her skirt.

Chrono is Sister Rosette's assistant and childhood friend. Although he appears to be a young boy of about twelve, he's actually a demon whose powers have been sealed away. The few that know what he really is tend to distrust him because of it, but he's a caring, lovable person who tends to get dragged into Rosette's messes. He and Rosette tend to have clashing personalities, but when it comes right down to it, she's the most important person in his life and he'd do anything to protect her.


 * The Atoner
 * Ax Crazy: He's not typically dangerous, but when his Berserk Button is pushed, his demon instincts take over and you're reminded how powerful Chrono really is.
 * Badass Adorable: Particularly when he proves that he's powerful even in his sealed form.
 * Badass Longcoat: Subverted, he wears a nice red coat but he's really only a badass in his true form (in which he ditches the tailed coat for an open jacket).
 * Beast and Beauty: Chrono and Mary Magdalene play this trope straight. Chrono and Rosette are a little weirder about this, since by the time he meets her he's become much more gentle and calm (and he looks like a little kid).
 * Belligerent Sexual Tension: With Rosette.
 * Berserk Button: When someone helpless or close to Chrono is hurt, it often triggers his demonic side and sends him into an Unstoppable Rage. More noticeable in the manga than the anime.
 * Beware the Nice Ones: Chrono is almost a pushover...until someone he cares about gets hurt.
 * Bishonen: He's a bit more masculine in his true form, but he's usually drawn as quite pretty (particularly at the times when he has long hair).
 * Bodyguard Crush: He has a pretty bad one on Rosette.
 * Bring My Red Jacket: Chrono is one of many red-coat wearing anime heroes that get beaten up a ton.
 * Cain and Abel: Chrono describes his former relationship with Aion as being "like brothers". In the manga, although he's unaware of it.
 * Cast From Lifespan: Chrono's powers draw from Rosette's lifespan.
 * Cannot Spit It Out: Chrono constantly dodges talking about his past with Aion, leaving the rest of the group to wonder what the hell is going on between the two of them.
 * Close Call Haircut: He loses his braid in a fight near the end of the manga.
 * Cross Dressing Voices: Averted! Both Akira Ishida and Greg Ayres can pull off a young enough voice to make it work. He does seem to be played by a woman in the German dub, however.
 * Dark Is Not Evil
 * Dark and Troubled Past
 * Defector From Decadence / Rebellious Rebel: Chrono ditched the Sinners after Aion's methods went a little too far.
 * Demon Lords and Archdevils: Chrono (along with a few others) is referred to as being very high "ranked" among the demons, implying he's particularly powerful and would've fallen under this trope had he not rebelled.
 * Detached Sleeves: The "gloves" Chrono wears under his coat are actually a bit closer to these the few times you see them without being covered up somehow.
 * Distinguishing Mark: His missing horns--he's even called "Chrono of the Broken Horn" at times. However,
 * Establishing Character Moment: Chrono freaking out when he believes Rosette has been killed in battle in the second episode/chapter establishes how protective he is of Rosette, and the fact that he's a demon. In the manga, it also introduces the reader to his Fatal Flaw--his temper.
 * Eyes of Gold: In his true form.
 * Failure Knight
 * Fatal Flaw: Chrono's difficulties controlling his emotions, when combined with his demonic instincts, sometimes causes him to lose control and fight his enemies with a frightening unawareness to anything else. (Particularly in the manga.)
 * Get Out of Jail Free Card: Chrono just barely gets out of major punishment after failing to control his demonic instincts during a battle, destroying parts of San Fransisco and causing the deaths of Innocent Bystanders.
 * Gentle Giant: In his true form.
 * Glowing Eyes of Doom: In the anime when he's going into an Unstoppable Rage.
 * Good Wings Evil Wings: Subverted, he's got the typical black bat wings of a demon, but he's a good guy.
 * Go Out With a Smile: In the anime
 * Half Human Hybrid: In the manga, sort of. He seems much more human than the typical demon.
 * Heroic BSOD: After the disastrous carnival battle.
 * Hey Its That Voice: Akira Ishida and Greg Ayres, both fan favorites.
 * Huge Guy Tiny Girl: Chrono and Rosette, when Chrono is in his true form.
 * The Lancer: His role in the Five Man Band, when he's not The Smart Guy.
 * I Am a Monster: Chrono states this towards the end of the manga, before.
 * Important Haircut: In the manga, once in his backstory and once in the main story.
 * In Vino Veritas: In a flashback that shows him drinking with Aion, Chrono shows a lot of regret over the battle that gave him the title "The Slayer of 100" and argues with Aion over how to respect the dead.
 * Kid Sidekick: Subverted, since he isn't actually a kid.
 * Legal Jailbait: In his sealed form, obviously. Lampshaded in the manga, where Satella is a Shotacon and seems quite pleased to have a cute boy to flirt with guilt-free.
 * Magic Pants: Just what happens to Chrono's outfit when he changes sizes?
 * The Magnificent: Chrono apparently has a bunch of titles in this style--mostly scary and unflattering--but they're rarely mentioned.
 * Martyr Without a Cause: Chrono has a bad habit of throwing himself in the way of enemy attacks--although he does have the ability to heal himself, so it's at least a little understandable.
 * Masculine Girl Feminine Boy: Chrono and Rosette, particularly when it comes to housework. This tends to be exaggerated even more in fanfic.
 * Meaningful Name: "Chrono" comes from the Greek word "Chronos", the personification of time--which fits both one of the main themes of the series (the passage of time) and his power to "stop" time.
 * Nice Guy: Until you push his Berserk Button.
 * Official Couple: With Rosette.
 * Older Alter Ego: Chrono may look like a 12-year-old boy normally, but when his powers are unsealed he turns into his true form -- a biseinen demon that looks closer to 20.
 * Older Sidekick: Chrono's at least sixty and likely even older, but that doesn't stop him from calling himself Rosette's 'assistant'.
 * One Degree of Separation: Almost all of the main characters are connected to Chrono in some way.
 * Person of Mass Destruction: When he's angry enough, he has the ability to destroy city blocks.
 * Pinocchio Nose: A subtle one in the manga--in the 7th volume, Chrono closes his eyes and puts on a strained smile when he realizes something's happened to Satella, then proceeds to start to babble about how they'll save Joshua soon while Rosette insists Chrono's being strange. A volume later, he once again closes his eyes and fakes a smile right before he.
 * Rapunzel Hair: In his sealed form, but not his true form. However, in the manga backstory (and the epilogue) he had longer hair in his true form, too.
 * Really Seven Hundred Years Old: Chrono is at least sixty years old (some reports indicate that Moriyama has given 85 or so as his age) but alternates between looking either twelve or twenty.
 * Red Eyes Take Warning: Chrono in his more human-esque form, probably as a symbol of his otherwordly background.
 * Red Oni Blue Oni: Inverted--Rosette is hotblooded, but wears blue. Chrono is the calm voice of reason, but wears red.
 * Played straighter with Chrono and Aion. Chrono is emotional, bad with demonic technology and cares about people over everything else. Aion is coldly logical, shown playing chess, and sacrifices people he cares about for the success of his plan. However, the anime version switches the roles for them--a scene in a flashback shows Chrono silhouetted in blue, and Aion in red.
 * Rummage Sale Reject: If you seek out pictures of boy's clothing from the 1920's, Chrono's outfit isn't too far off from what a boy around his supposed age would wear...just with some added details that make him stand out from the crowd.
 * Savvy Guy Energetic Girl: Chrono comes across as pretty calm and rational in comparison to Rosette (although he's a bit more impulsive and much more emotional when he doesn't have to balance her out).
 * Sharp Dressed Man: Chrono's red suit is rather striking...although it's a bit more adorable than the typical look that follows this trope, since he's supposed to look like a 12 year old.
 * Shonen Hair: In his true form, and somewhat in his sealed form, too (only with a mullet-braid added onto the back).
 * Sibling Yin Yang:
 * Sleep Mode Size: His usual sealed form.
 * Spell My Name With an S: Many fans spell Chrono's name "Chrno" because of the original logo.
 * Star Crossed Lovers: Both Chrono and and Chrono and Rosette. Poor guy just doesn't get a break.
 * Stripperiffic: In his true form, he's wearing leather pants and an open jacket. And he's one of the more modest demons!
 * Team Mom: Chrono can sometimes act like this for the Nakama.
 * Through His Stomach: Chrono is struck by Rosette's kindness when she offers him some sweets at their first meeting.
 * Traumatic Haircut: In the manga backstory, Chrono's long hair was burned off during a battle that pretty much marks the loss of his innocence.
 * Vitriolic Best Buds: With Rosette.
 * Walking Shirtless Scene: In his true form. He's also shirtless underneath the poncho he wears in the 1870s, although this is rarely shown in the manga and never shown in the anime.
 * You Gotta Have Blue Hair: Although Chrono's hair might be justified since he's really a demon. His purple hair might also be a stylized brown or black.
 * You Gotta Have Blue Hair: Although Chrono's hair might be justified since he's really a demon. His purple hair might also be a stylized brown or black.
 * You Gotta Have Blue Hair: Although Chrono's hair might be justified since he's really a demon. His purple hair might also be a stylized brown or black.

A meek girl that was saved by Chrono and Rosette when her adoptive father attempted to use her holy powers for his own goals. Her powers have brought her nothing but misfortune, which has lead her to dislike them and caused her self-esteem issues. She admires Rosette and wants to grow up to be strong and confident like her.


 * Apologises a Lot
 * As Long As It Sounds Foreign: ....Azmaria? Huh?
 * Babies Ever After: The manga epilogue features her grandson, so we know she had at least one kid.
 * Blessed With Suck: Being an Apostle in general sucks. In particular, almost everyone Az has cared about has been hurt due to her powers, and she's been used and possibly abandoned by others.
 * Captain Obvious: Occurs in the anime, in which Azmaria realizes that Satella (the girl with the German name and strong German accent) is from Germany after she complains about a hot dog.
 * Character Exaggeration: In the anime she comes across as nothing but a moeblob.
 * The Chick: Her role in the Five Man Band, although she gets to be The Smart Guy in the final battle of the manga.
 * Conveniently an Orphan
 * Cursed With Awesome: Her special healing ability, which drew jealousy and ire of many people around her prior to Rosette and Chrono coming into her life.
 * Distressed Damsel
 * Dojikko
 * Feminine Women Can Cook: In the anime.
 * Girl of My Dreams: Genderswapped version; Azmaria has a dream about Joshua before she even knows he's Rosette's missing brother in volume 2.
 * Good Wings Evil Wings: She has feathered angel wings when she uses her Apostle powers.
 * Healing Hands: Azmaria has the power to heal others with her voice.
 * Heroic Albino
 * Hey Its That Voice: In the dub, she's Chiyo-chan. In the Japanese she's Nina Einstein (!)
 * Hime Cut
 * The Ingenue: The gentlest, kindest and most innocent character in the story, despite her Woobie status.
 * Invisible Backup Band: In the anime, Azmaria's singing seems to be magically accompanied by an invisible organ.
 * I Was Quite a Looker: The manga epilogue lets us see Azmaria as a 90-year-old. Not that bad, considering her age, but still shocking in comparison since Moriyama opted to draw her realistically aging.
 * Kid Sidekick
 * The Load: Anime. Somewhat in the manga, too, but she gets better closer to the end.
 * Magic Music: Azmaria has the ability to heal others by singing for them.
 * The Matchmaker: For Chrono and Rosette.
 * Official Couple: In the manga epilogue.
 * Orphans Ordeal: Ever since the deaths(?) of her parents, she's been shuffled around. It seems like a lot of her self-esteem issues possibly stem from it.
 * Rapunzel Hair
 * Red Eyes Take Warning: Possibly subverted--her red eyes are possibly only supposed to imply that she's an albino.
 * Second Love: Depending on how you take, Azmaria might be this for him in the manga.
 * Spell My Name With an S: There's an official piece of artwork that labels her as "Asmary". "Azumaria" is fairly common as well.
 * Spontaneous Reverb: In the anime when she uses her powers.
 * Stepford Smiler: A mild version, since she feels like she's a burden to people she tries to keep smiling even when she's not happy. In the manga she seems to slowly start to become more comfortable with expressing her emotions.
 * Token Mini Moe: Although she's pushing the age barrier, considering she's 12.
 * White Haired Pretty Girl
 * Winged Humanoid: One of her powers as an Apostle.

A prideful and elegant bounty hunter, Satella is the last to join Rosette's Nakama. Calling herself a "jewel witch", she's unaffiliated with the Order but ends up getting dragged into Rosette's mission once they cross paths. The heiress to a vast fortune, Satella starts off looking down at the Order's ways but soon starts to appreciate them more. She's cold and driven, but starts to open up to the others as they travel together.


 * Action Girl
 * As Long As It Sounds Foreign: Satella? It could have been meant to be "Stella", but...
 * Big Breasts Big Deal: Satella flaunts her size, particularly in the manga when she flirts with Chrono.
 * The Big Guy: Her role in the Five Man Band, when she's not being The Smart Guy.
 * Boobs of Steel
 * Cain and Abel: Satella's missing family member? When this is revealed they end up fighting each other.
 * Character Exaggeration: Her Rich Bitch tendencies and distrust of others gets played up more in the anime version.
 * Compassionate Critic: Toward Azmaria, particularly in the beginning. In the anime she's a bit nicer about it, however.
 * Cool Big Sis: Particularly for Azmaria. (Rosette doesn't exactly look up too Satella...)
 * Dark and Troubled Past
 * Expressive Hair: Satella's hair curves into a question mark in one scene of the manga.
 * Fiery Redhead
 * Gratuitous German: When she uses her powers as a Jewel Witch, and also when she introduces herself.
 * Half Human Hybrid: The manga reveals that she, although she appears unaware of it.
 * Harmful to Minors: Satella witnessed her parent's murder and sister's kidnapping--she's been searching for the demon responsible ever since.
 * Hey Its That Voice: That's right, it's Tiffany Grant playing another redheaded German. Or Michiko Neya playing another Cool Big Sis character.
 * Human Popsicle: Near the end of the manga,
 * Instant Runes: Her powers.
 * In Vino Veritas: When Satella gets drunk at a dinner party she reveals that she's a Shotacon by blatantly flirting with Chrono, then starts to wonder if she should give up on finding her family's killer.
 * Lady of War: Her fighting style can be pretty elegant and she comes across as much more mature than Rosette--although her hot temper sometimes causes her to charge into the fray and makes her something of a borderline example.
 * Ms. Fanservice: Particularly in the anime, but definitely in the manga, too.
 * The Ojou
 * Orphans Ordeal: She probably has it the worst out of everyone, considering the nightmarish way she lost her family.
 * Pretty in Mink
 * Rapunzel Hair
 * Really Seven Hundred Years Old: Satella might count for this in the manga epilogue,
 * Shotacon: In the manga, Satella likes "younger boys"...much to Chrono's chagrin.
 * Spell My Name With an S: Probably the worst of the entire cast--even ADV Films' translation of the manga screws up on this and calls her "Stella" on one page.
 * Vitriolic Best Buds: With Rosette.
 * Younger Than They Look: Rosette is surprised when she finds out Satella is only 19. In an omake, the mangaka said he even got letters saying that Satella looked like a housewife.
 * Younger Than They Look: Rosette is surprised when she finds out Satella is only 19. In an omake, the mangaka said he even got letters saying that Satella looked like a housewife.

The Magdalan Order


The Magdalan Order is a Christian organization dedicated to protecting people from demons. Although most of the members are humble servants of God, it's obvious that the Order is a powerful organization with the latest in technology and magical knowledge. They're connected enough that they can manage to somehow clean up Rosette's messes and keep her out of trouble with the law and the press.


 * Christianity Is Catholic: Sorta. In the manga, the Magdalan Order is some form of "Anime Catholicism"--they have a lot of Catholic trappings, but priests in the Order can apparently get married (as Joshua does), among other inconsistencies. The anime straightens it out by saying that the Order is a combined effort of several different denominations working together, so Rosette is technically not a nun and Remington is apparently a protestant minister. Many Fanfic, however, makes the Order full-on stereotypical Catholic, with confessionals, rosaries and vows often popping up.
 * Church Militant
 * Depleted Phlebotinum Shells: The Magdalan Order's bullets -- inscribed with scriptures and filled with holy water instead of gunpowder.
 * Holy Hand Grenade: The majority of the Order's weapons.

Rosette's superior in the Order. At first she comes across as aggressive and strict--particularly when dealing with Rosette, who tries her patience--but she's actually rather sweet if you show her common courtesy. It's clear that she loves her job and wants to protect people, but she can sometimes take a harsh approach to do it. Later in the series she shows a more thoughtful side as she grapples with the approaching darkness.


 * A Father to His Men: Sister Kate seems to take on quite a motherly role with the exorcists beneath her. Of course, sometimes she's a nagging mother...
 * Fantastic Racism: Refuses to even consider the possibility that Chrono is on their side.
 * Hey Its That Voice: In the Japanese, she's Integra Hellsing!
 * Nuns Are Funny: She's usually pretty serious, but her hot tempered reactions to Rosette's actions can be pretty extreme--particularly when she starts attacking Rosette with wrestling moves.

Father Ewan Remington is a member of the militia and Rosette's guardian. He was the one that originally asked her to join the Order, and takes the role of a father and mentor in her life. He's typically cheerful and carries himself with a cool sense of confidence, but when it comes time to fight he can be a deadly warrior. Whereas Sister Kate is strict and goes by the book, Father Remington often encourages Rosette to be a little more creative with how she solves her problems. He also spoils her rotten.


 * Badass Longcoat: Sort of, he's really wearing a jacket and a cassock, but it sure looks like this.
 * Blue Eyes
 * Big Damn Heroes: Remington tends to wait until the very last minute to help out.
 * Cool Sword: He's got a badass laser sword with holy powers.
 * Deadly Upgrade: In the manga, he's been
 * Half Human Hybrid: In the manga,
 * Hey Its That Voice: Show Hayami, who's Playing Against Type in this role.
 * Hot Dad: He's not Rosette's real father, but he serves as her legal guardian. Oh, and all the nuns in the Order seem to have a crush on him, including Rosette herself.
 * Hypocritical Humor: Father Remington comments that mob members should "behave themselves" while he flirts with some of the nuns.
 * The Obi Wan
 * Our Angels Are Different: In the anime, he hints that he's a fallen angel.
 * Phenotype Stereotype
 * Really Seven Hundred Years Old: He's at least seventy years old, but looks about thirty tops.
 * Sexy Priest: Remington is a crush magnet and fond of flirting.
 * Spell My Name With an S: Early scanlations spelled his name "Yuan".

The inventor of much of the high-tech equipment and ammunition the Order uses. Earlier in the series he functions mostly as comic relief, creating wacky devices and behaving like an old pervert towards the nuns in the Order, but he does have a serious side which occasionally shows itself, and he's obviously a genius. He's taken Chrono somewhat under his wing and often stands up for him when others in the Order show distrust toward him.


 * Dirty Old Man: Lampshaded when Rosette calls him out on it.
 * Lovable Sex Maniac
 * Mad Scientist
 * Panty Thief: One of the way the Elder expresses his pervertedness is him sneaking into the nun's dormitories to go on panty raids.

A mysterious figure that's highly regarded by the Order, Mary was a holy woman that lived during the later half of the 19th century. She seems to have a connection to Chrono's past, although her story isn't told until later in the story.


 * Arc Words: Her name shows up very early on and is even worked into the logo of the series, but we don't find out about who she really was until near the end.
 * : Manga. This is implied in the anime as well, but it seems that Chrono always knew.
 * Blessed With Suck: Mary has truly awe-inspiring powers, but at the cost of all of her memories.
 * Beast and Beauty: Chrono's the beast to Mary's beauty.
 * Go Out With a Smile: In the manga
 * I Let Gwen Stacy Die
 * The Lost Lenore
 * Love Martyr: Mary Magdaline fell in love with Chrono despite knowing almost from the day she was born that
 * The Messiah
 * Phenotype Stereotype
 * Posthumous Character
 * Rapunzel Hair
 * Satellite Character: For Chrono. She seems to have done this on purpose.
 * Star Crossed Lovers: With Chrono--but she likely knew this would happen from the beginning.
 * Stepford Smiler
 * Team Mom: Mary acted like this for the Sinners during her time with them.
 * Telepathy: She might have this in the manga version, although its vague. Averted in the anime--Mary makes it clear that she can see future events but can't read the minds of those involved.
 * Unhappy Medium: Her visions are at such a constant and overpowering level that she can't even remember what her name is anymore--Mary Magdalene is the name given to her by the Order.
 * Waif Prophet
 * Winged Humanoid: One of her powers.
 * Your Days Are Numbered:

The Demons


The race of supernatural beings that the Order fights against and that Chrono belongs to. Their origins and goals differ depending on whether you're following the manga or the anime, but both versions seem to be filled with proud warriors that look down upon humans and consider them tools at best.


 * Always Chaotic Evil: Subverted, they seem this way in the beginning but there's more going on behind the surface.
 * Authority Equals Asskicking: In the manga, Duke Daffau is the leader of the Pursuers and (in Chrono's opinion at least) "the best of the best!" This might be the case in the anime as well, although he gets defeated pretty quickly in battle.
 * Bee People: In the manga, it's lampshaded by Chrono. The anime demons don't seem to fit this as well.
 * Bishonen Line: As a general rule, the more monstrous-looking and beast-like the demon is, the weaker they are.
 * Deal With the Devil: Contracts. Demons under contracts are bound to serve the person who makes the pact, but with a price -- the demon uses the human's soul as an energy source in place of Astral energy.
 * Demon Lords and Archdevils: The "Elders" (or leaders of the demons) and Duke Daffau.
 * Doing in The Wizard: In the manga, demons
 * Genericist Government: Both versions are very vague on how demon society actually works.
 * Glowing Eyes of Doom: Seems to be a universal power of the demons in the anime.
 * Good Wings Evil Wings: If a demon has wings, they're usually bat-like.
 * Hellish Pupils
 * Hey Its That Voice: Duke Daffau is Norio Wakamoto. And yes, he's a badass.
 * Higher Tech Species: The demons seem to have better technology than most humans. In the manga it's because
 * Holy Burns Evil: Demons are weak to holy water.
 * Nigh Invulnerability: The demons, particularly powerful ones like Chrono and Aion, are extremely difficult to kill. It seems like holy water is one of the few things that has any effect.
 * Only One Name: Nearly all of the demons if you ignore their titles.
 * Our Demons Are Different: No, really?
 * Pointy Ears: Most of the demons, although there's a few exceptions. (Shader, for example, has cat ears instead.)
 * The Power of Blood: Blood is exchanged when a demon makes a contract with a human.
 * Really Seven Hundred Years Old: Yeah, pretty much all of them are way older than they look.
 * Stripperiffic: A lot of the outfits we see demons wear expose a LOT of skin, particularly considering that many of the outfits we see appear to be what they're expected to wear in battle.
 * Voluntary Shapeshifting: The demons all have the ability to take on a human-looking form instead of their true demonic form, if they wish--although it appears that some have to hide inhuman body parts that don't transform, like cat ears or pig-like snouts.
 * Winged Humanoid: This seems like it might be a male-only ability, since neither Rizelle or Shader appear to have wings.

Pandaemonium


Pandaemonium is both the name of the Queen of the demons and the name of their home world. There's very little that humans truely know about her, but she seems very important to Aion's plans.


 * : In the manga.
 * Genius Loci: Pandaemonium is both the name of the demons' world, and their queen. In the manga
 * Mind Rape: Pandemonium's MO.

The Sinners


A group of demons lead by Aion, that Chrono used to be a part of. They seem to be at odds not only with the Order, but with other demons.


 * Breakfast Club: Particularly in the manga, where they're all basically children that were disowned by their people.
 * Dark and Troubled Past: Every last one of 'em, except for arguably Joshua.
 * Distinguishing Mark: In the manga, all of the sinners (except for Rizelle) have torn out their horns.
 * Five Bad Band:
 * The Big Bad - Aion
 * The Dragon - formerly Chrono, now Genai
 * The Brute - Viede, although he's implied to be a Genius Bruiser in the manga
 * The Evil Genius / Dark Chick - Shader
 * The Dark Chick / Dark Action Girl - Rizelle
 * The Sixth Ranger - Joshua
 * Team Mom - Fiore, formerly Mary Magdalene
 * Nakama: They don't always get along, but it's clear that they all consider each other a sort of odd family. It's enough that in the manga, Chrono shows remorse for fighting them and even outward concern for them at times.

Voiced by: Kazuhiko Inoue (JP), Andy McAvin (EN)


The leader of the Sinners and the Big Bad of the series, Aion is a demon with ties to Chrono's past who is now at odds with him. He's charasmatic and smooth, but calculating and secretive. Since so much about him was kept a secret until later in the series, his personality and goals change drastically depending on if you're following the manga or the anime.


 * Animal Motifs: Aion has an eagle familiar that serves as his symbol (particularly in the anime), and he tends to be fond of bird-related similes as well.
 * Authority Equals Asskicking: Aion's not just the leader of the Sinners because he's the smartest--he's also the most powerful of them (except for possibly Chrono).
 * Awful Truth: Manga--Aion finds out truths about the demons that nearly drive him insane, and then tries to hide it from Chrono.
 * Badass Longcoat
 * Bishonen: Although a bit closer to biseinen.
 * Broken Bad: Aion in the manga. Not so much in the anime version.
 * Cain and Abel: Chrono was formerly his best friend, before Mary came along and caused the fight that led Chrono to betray him. In the manga, and Aion's aware of it.
 * The Chessmaster
 * Cool Sword: In the manga, Aion's sword is where he hides his horns, and it has all sorts of cool abilities.
 * Dark Messiah
 * Dark Skinned Blond
 * Demon Lords and Archdevils: Both versions imply Aion was very high-ranked before his betrayal of Pandaemonium. The manga goes so far as to say that the Elders of his people expected him to become very high-ranked and powerful...and he exceeded their expectations.
 * Distinguishing Mark: Aion's missing horns is key to
 * Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas: In the manga, although a pretty twisted version.
 * Evil Counterpart: To Chrono, particularly in the anime.
 * Evil Genius
 * Evil Gloating: He LOVES to do this.
 * Evil Laugh: Not all the time, but pretty frequently.
 * Feathered Fiend: Aion's familiar is an eagle (complete with Glowing Eyes of Doom in the anime).
 * Freak Out: Aion in a flashback in the final volume, after finding out about all the lies present in the demon society.
 * Go Mad From the Revelation: In the manga, although it's less of a cackling, obvious madness and more of a creepy, calm sort of insanity.
 * Gotta Catch Them All: Aion's plans require all of the Apostles.
 * Gotta Get Your Head Together: In his traumatic coming-of-age ceremony.
 * Hannibal Lecture: A favorite tactic of his.
 * Half Human Hybrid: Like Chrono, in the manga
 * The Heartless: The anime strongly suggests that Aion fulfills this role.
 * Hey Its That Voice: Kazuhiko Inoue, AKA Kakashi.
 * Hidden Agenda Villain
 * Hotter and Sexier: The manga version of Aion doesn't seem too interested in sex, while the anime version delights in forcing passionate kisses on Rosette and generally acts like a Memetic Molester. Also, he's voiced by Kazuhiko Inoue, that's bound to make anything sexier.
 * In Love With Your Carnage: Aion is very happy when Chrono flies into an Unstoppable Rage, and is often disappointed when Chrono tries to avoid tearing his enemies into a bloody pulp or expresses regret and disgust for his actions.
 * Ive Come Too Far: In the manga, this is Aion's general rationalization for his continued efforts against Pandaemonium.
 * Karma Houdini: Aion appears to have gotten away with most of it in the anime, although the ending has been intepreted a few different ways. In the manga his fate is left ambiguous, but it's implied that Chrono defeated him.
 * Large Ham: "How lucky can you get? The turkey has flown straight into the oven, basted and ready to cook!"
 * Locked Into Strangeness: Manga: Aion's hair turned white after his traumatic coming-of-age ceremony. It's implied his hair was before the event.
 * Meaningful Name: In contrast to Chrono's name, Aion is a greek word that means (loosely) "forever" or "eternity".
 * Mommy Issues: While it's not his only problem, he's definitely got some issues with what happened to his mother.
 * Person of Mass Destruction: Considering that he probably matches Chrono's power level, he has the ability to, although he normally has much more self control.
 * The Philosopher
 * Psychotic Smirk
 * Purely Aesthetic Glasses: He doesn't wear his glasses in his true form--he just seems to wear his glasses for looks.
 * Rapunzel Hair
 * Really Seven Hundred Years Old
 * Red Oni Blue Oni: Possibly--Chrono has red eyes and clothing, and is emotional, bad with technology and places importance on people more than anything else. Aion has purple eyes and his clothes are also accented with purple, and he's cold, intelligent, and is willing to sacrifice anyone for his plan. However, the anime version reverses their colors in one scene, where Chrono is shown shillouetted in blue and Aion in red. It's possible this is because of the changes to their personalities--Chrono is portrayed as calmer than he is in the manga, and Aion is more easily swayed by his moods and impulses.
 * Scary Shiny Glasses: Aion's glasses don't seem to serve a purpose outside of this. Well, that and they make him look cool, plus it's possible they're there to hide from the audience that.
 * Sharp Dressed Man
 * Shonen Hair: Aion had hair like this when he was younger. In fact, he seems to have grown out his hair relatively recently, since it's still short when he.
 * Spell My Name With an S: Occasionally his name is spelled "Ion" instead.
 * Stoic Spectacles: Occasionally subverted--he can actually be rather emotional when you push the right buttons (which tends to be when he isn't wearing those glasses...)
 * Trickster Archetype
 * Ubermensch
 * Villain With Good Publicity: In the anime, after he brainwashes the "Holy Maiden".
 * Visionary Villain
 * White Haired Pretty Boy: The dark skin should exempt him from the trope, but Aion doesn't seem to care.

Rosette's younger brother. As a child, Joshua was granted with a holy power that allowed him to heal others, but at the cost of his own health. Desperate to become stronger, Joshua accepted Aion's offer to wear Chrono's horns on his head--a gift that grants him incredible power, but at the cost of his sanity. Although fragments of his original cheerful, optimistic personality remain, his weak sanity and Aion's manipulation has twisted him into a childish, impulsive brat. He's wildly devoted to Aion, but greatly misses his sister.


 * The Atoner: The manga epilogue shows that Joshua joined the Order after returning home, with Azmaria guessing this as his reason.
 * Ax Crazy: With the horns.
 * Babies Ever After: It's implied in the manga epilogue that
 * Badass Longcoat
 * Bishonen
 * Blessed With Suck: Like all of the other apostles, having holy powers just made Joshua's life more difficult. They eventually drove him to Aion's side.
 * Blond Guys Are Evil
 * Blue Eyes: Joshua's eyes are sometimes shown as an icier color than Rosette's--which gets emphasized once he switches sides.
 * Cain and Abel: Joshua doesn't want to give Chrono's horns back, and his insanity makes it hard for him to remember his past. So when Rosette tells him to take off the horns, things get...messy.
 * Character Exaggeration: In the anime, he comes across as much more childish.
 * Conveniently an Orphan: Rosette and Joshua's parents died in a shipwreck.
 * Creepy Child
 * Cross Dressing Voices: In the Japanese version. He's played by Chris Patton in the English dub.
 * Empathic Healer: Although he didn't realize it at the time, his powers was what caused his mysterious illness as a child.
 * Forgot I Could Fly: At one point in the manga, Joshua is almost crushed to death by falling debris until he remembers he can stop time.
 * Girl of My Dreams: Genderswapped version; Azmaria has a dream about Joshua before she even knows he's Rosette's missing brother in volume 2.
 * Good Wings Evil Wings: Subverted, as an Apostle Joshua still has the ability to bring out feathered angel wings, but he's siding with the villains.
 * Gotta Get Your Head Together: Often, whenever the horns are causing him trouble.
 * Healing Hands
 * Hearing Voices: Joshua hears telepathic "noise" with Chrono's horns.
 * Hero Worshipper: Implied to be this way toward Aion...which may be just another symptom of the insanity caused by his horns. (Although it's at least justified by his previously established love of the occult and larger-than-life characters.) He showed hints of this to Chrono as a child, too.
 * Hey Its That Voice!: Junko Minagawa, who has since played another young blond caught up in the supernatural. In the dub, it's popular voice actor Chris Patton who has since played another crazy blond in the early 20th century US who hero worships an even crazier guy in a white suit.
 * I Just Want to Be Badass: Part of Joshua's motivation to take Chrono's horns.
 * Ill Boy: Joshua was one of these back when he was a child, which is what lead him to accept Chrono's horns from Aion.
 * Incurable Cough of Death: The price Joshua had to pay for his powers, along with seizures--until Aion gave him Chrono's horns...
 * Innocent Cohabitation: Joshua and Fiore live together by themselves for at least several months without anything appearing to happen between them. (Well, besides a little bit of blood-drinking anyway.)
 * Madness Mantra: "Sis. Sis. Sis. Sis."
 * Magic Music: In the manga, Joshua channels his powers through an organ and leads the other Apostles in song.
 * Meaningful Name: "Christopher" means "bearer of Christ", and Joshua comes from the same root name as Jesus.
 * Mind Control Eyes: An odd variation when he has Chrono's horns; his pupils get smaller and strange rings appear in his eyes.
 * Nightmare Fetishist: Instead of being freaked out or disbelieving when Chrono calls himself a demon, Joshua's reaction is "WOW!! Are witches and fairies real, too?!"
 * Official Couple:
 * Orphans Ordeal: The manga eventually reveals that many of his issues stem from a need to become strong and protect his sister since they're the only family each other has.
 * Person of Mass Destruction: Chrono's powers + insane kid = lots of damage.
 * Phenotype Stereotype
 * Picky Eater: Joshua hates carrots.
 * Power Incontinence / Telepathy / Terrible Ticking: Joshua can't control his ability to read minds, which is at least part of what drives him insane.
 * Prophetic Name: See Meaningful Name, above. Is it any wonder he ended up with holy powers?
 * Psychopathic Manchild: With the horns.
 * Sexy Priest: Considering he joins the Order in the manga, and grows up to be a biseinen...
 * Sharp Dressed Man: Aion makes sure he's always wearing a nice suit when he's out of the home.
 * Shonen Hair: A somewhat toned-down version.
 * Slasher Smile: During his crazier moments with the horns.
 * Unhappy Medium
 * Where I Was Born and Razed: When Joshua recieved Chrono's horns, he went mad from all the telepathic "noise" he could hear from the other orphans and "stopped the time" of everyone around them, freezing them in stone.
 * Winged Humanoid: One of his powers as a Apostle.
 * With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: Chrono's horns make him very powerful. And very, very crazy.

A quiet girl who serves as Joshua's maid. Although very stoic and polite, glimpses of a loving, devoted young woman can be seen behind her mask of stone. She tends to be a pushover, but God help you if you threaten Joshua--she's as devoted to him as he is to Aion.


 * Action Girl
 * Blank Slate: Fiore probably started out that way, and still says she is this way, even though she's anything but.
 * Bob Haircut
 * Bodyguard Crush: Nothing's ever said explicitly, but there's hints that Fi might have one on Joshua, particularly in the manga.
 * : When Fiore's past with is revealed, it doesn't end well for either party.

 * Evil Counterpart:
 * Extreme Doormat
 * Feminine Women Can Cook
 * Gratuitous German: When she uses her powers.

 * Instant Runes: Her powers.

 * Lady of War: She curtsies before entering the fray the very first time she reveals herself to be a capable fighter, and she doesn't lose her cool and polite demeanor on the battlefield.
 * Legal Jailbait: Appears to be 15, is actually around 25.
 * Meaningful Name: Both and Fiore mean "flower".

The first member of the Sinners that Chrono and Rosette confront directly, Rizelle is a demon known as the "Puppetmaster". Although she can fight when cornered, she prefers to manipulate humans like puppets and use them to do her dirty work. She's desperate for attention from Aion.


 * Action Girl
 * People Puppets: Rizelle isn't called the "Marionette Mistress" for nothing.
 * Rapunzel Hair: If you're keeping track, that's eight different characters with strikingly long hair. Do you think Daisuke Moriyama has a thing for it?
 * Really Seven Hundred Years Old: Younger than Aion, but still much older than she looks.
 * Spell My Name With an S: Rizel.
 * Stripperiffic: In her demon form, she's basically wearing a leotard and thigh-high boots. (And her disguised form in the 1870s isn't much better.) Of course, this becomes Fan Disservice once her lower body is replaced with that of a large spider's...

An energetic Catgirl demon that functions as the Sinner's techie. She rarely fights and prefers to stay on the sidelines--as she says, she "fights with my brain, not with my fists!" In the manga she's very affectionate towards the other Sinners and seems to genuinely miss and worry about Chrono, but in the anime she has quite a sadistic streak.


 * Blush Sticker: Shader ALWAYS has these, even when she's upset or frightened.
 * Brainy Brunette
 * Catgirl
 * Cat Smile
 * Character Exaggeration: The anime version mostly sticks to her energetic, playful side, and gives her a sadistic edge that didn't exist in the manga.
 * Comedic Sociopathy: Particularly in the anime, although it's played as creepy as well as funny.
 * Cuddle Bug
 * Evil Genius: Although in the manga she's the least evil member of the Sinners.
 * Genki Girl
 * The Glomp: Her MO.
 * Hot Scientist
 * Meganekko: Although her personality doesn't really fit the stereotype.
 * No Sense of Personal Space
 * Perky Female Minion: Particularly in the anime.
 * Psychopathic Manchild: Anime version.
 * Purely Aesthetic Glasses: Like Aion, she doesn't appear to need her glasses to see. They're probably just to make her look smart.
 * Really Seven Hundred Years Old: She looks like she's in her late teens or so, but she's at least 60.
 * Spell My Name With an S: One of the stranger ones, occasionally her name is given as Shedl or Sheda in scanlations.
 * Stripperiffic: In her true form, the normally tomboyish looking catgirl wears a skimpy halter top and a short loincloth!

A rough and tumble member of the Sinners who seems to style himself as some sort of cowboy. Genai is rude, crude and misoginistic. He not-so-secretly has a flame for Rizelle, so he's very bitter and angry towards anyone that had to do with her running off to confront Rosette.


 * Eye Scream: Genai's eyes were cut out during a fight with Pandaemonium, blinding him. The wounds were poorly stitched up afterward--he shows them to Rosette at one point to freak her out.
 * Really Seven Hundred Years Old
 * Spell My Name With an S: Jenai, or--hilariously--Jenny.
 * Spell My Name With an S: Jenai, or--hilariously--Jenny.

Viede


The muscle of the Sinners. In the manga he's extremely loyal to Aion, but often serves as a voice of reason to the other sinners, and is portrayed as being something of a bookworm. In the anime, he...likes to punch things. And that's pretty much it.


 * Bad Guys Play Pool: Although they're never shown playing pool, Viede uses a pool metaphor to point out to Aion that he shouldn't go into battle without his sword.
 * : Type 2.
 * Genius Bruiser: The manga implies he's one--he's shown carrying stacks of books and playing chess with Aion.
 * Really Seven Hundred Years Old
 * Sharp Dressed Man: He wears a nice suit in the 1870s, although in the 20s he trades it for a leather jacket and a pair of jeans.
 * Spell My Name With an S: Sometimes his name was spelled "Bid" or "Wid".

Minor Unaffiliated Characters and Groups

 * The Caretaker: Beth becomes this for Rosette in the manga.
 * Class Representative: Although she's technically some sort of "monitor" and not a class rep, Beth in the manga falls under this trope perfectly while she's at the Order.
 * Death By Adaptation: survives in the manga but is killed off at the carnival in the anime.
 * Fortune Teller: Appears in the anime as a foreshadowing device.
 * Human Popsicle: The kids at Seventh Belle, thanks to Joshua's use of the horns.
 * Innocent Bystander: If they're around, you can bet they're going to get caught in the crossfire.
 * Magic Music: In the manga, all of the Apostles appear to use music to channel their powers.
 * Necromantic: Azmaria's foster father hoped to use her to revive his dead wife. In the anime, he's trying to revive himself.
