The Comic Party franchise has a well-defined set of characters. CP is the first season anime Comic Party; "CPR" is the second season anime Comic Party Revolution. Names are given in English order.

Kazuki Sendo

• Masami Kikuchi (Japanese), Sam Riegal (CP English), Leraldo Anzaldua (CPR English)

The protagonist of this title. An indifferent student (in high school in the first anime and in college in the second anime, game, and manga), he has some talent as an artist and is persuaded to form the "Brother 2" dojinshi partnership with Taishi.

Mizuki Takase

• Riko Sayama (Japanese), Rachael Lillis (CP English), Luci Christian (CPR English)

Mizuki Takase is the protagonist's friend since junior high, who eventually ended up in the same college as Kazuki. She is energetic and athletic, with long red hair in a side ponytail. She starts out hostile and skeptical towards otaku and dojinshi, and is initially opposed to Kazuki's new activity. However, she's also torn by Kazuki's expressions of satisfaction with the dojinshi process, and worries that it leaves less time for them together. Later in the series she accepts this though, and even starts to cosplay herself.

Yuu Inagawa

• Kaoru Morota (Japanese), Georgette Reilly (CP English), Tiffany Grant (CPR English)

Yuu Inagawa is a Kansai-speaking, passionate dojinshi enthusiast. She is from Kobe, but comes to Tokyo often for Comic Party. Her parents own a Japanese inn and hot-springs resort that she will inherit when she is older. Yuu is the sole member of the circle "Karamitei". She teaches Kazuki about dojinshi publishing and comics exhibition. She is nicknamed "Hot Springs Panda" (Panda Onseniko) by Eimi because she owns a hot springs and she has large circle glasses that is similar to the dark patches around the panda's eyes.

Eimi Ohba

• Shizuka Ishikawa (Japanese), Jessica Calvello (CP English), Larissa Wolcott (CPR English)

Eimi Ohba is an egoistic dojin artist with the self-proclaimed title of "Queen of ComiPa". She is the head of a popular dojin circle called "CAT OR FISH?!". She is fiercely competitive and believes the value of the dojinshi is based on how many copies it sold. In exchange for her nicknaming Yuu Inagawa, Yuu has nicknamed her "Ohba-ka", which shows their relationship is less than friendly.

Aya Hasebe

• Mie Sonozaki (Japanese), Carol Jacobanis (CP English), Kim Prause (CPR English)

Aya Hasebe is a timid girl who draws original dojinshi. She usually gets Kazuki's attention by pulling on his shirt rather than calling out to him. Aya's circle is called "Jamming Book Store". Her dojinshi does not sell well because she has a hard time attracting customers, even though it has good artwork and costs only 200 yen (instead of the usual 500-1000 yen). Kazuki admires her artwork and creative story, so he tries to help her sell whenever he can.

Minami Makimura

• Miho Yamada (Japanese), Lisa Ortiz (CP English), Allison Sumrall (CPR English)

Minami Makimura is the head staff of the Comic Party conventions. During the conventions, she is seen patrolling the grounds. She always checks Kazuki's dojinshi to see whether it's acceptable to be sold there.

Chisa Tsukamoto

• Sumie Baba (Japanese), Lisa Ortiz (CP English), Kim-Ly Nguyen (CPR English)

Chisa Tsukamoto is the daughter of the printing shop where Kazuki gets his dojinshi printed. She is hardworking and looks after the business when her parents go out of town, but she is clumsy and scatterbrained and sometimes makes mistakes with the printing process. She is often seen chasing a runaway cart. In the first anime, she's a junior student at Kazuki's school.

Reiko Haga

• Akiko Muta (Japanese), Sara Van Buskirk (CP English), Laurie Gallardo (CPR English)

Cosplay enthusiast and promoter. In the manga, she teaches Mizuki about the nuances of cosplay.

Asahi Sakurai

• Satomi Koorogi (Japanese), Jessica Boone (CPR English)

Asahi Sakurai is anime and manga fan by day and a famous idol by night. She is the voice actress of Card Master Peach, the main character of a popular anime in the Comic Party world (and a double parody of Wedding Peach and Cardcaptor Sakura). Even though she is an idol, she is nervous around people so she often stutters and forgets what she was going to say. Asahi disguises herself with eyeglasses and a hat when she wants to enjoy the public without a crowd around her which quickly forms when her identity is revealed.

Asahi's role in the first Comic Party anime adaption is limited since she does not interact with the main protagonist. Instead, she is only heard on the radio and briefly seen singing at a concert.

Subaru Mikage

• Masayo Kurata (Japanese), Jenny Larson (CPR English)

Miko fighter obsessed with hero stories, but terrible at creating dojinshi. Her group is "Sin-jyusyokakutei." She is not featured in the original game and anime series, appearing in Comic Party Revolution.

Ikumi Tachikawa

• Kimiko Koyama (Japanese), Kerry Grant (CP English), Cynthia Martinez (CPR English)

A sickly girl, Kazuki's fan and first customer. Ikumi has spent most of her life in the hospital. She has an older, very muscular, brother named Yuuzo in Comic Party Revolution.

Taishi Kuhonbutsu

• Koichi Tochika (Japanese), Liam O'Brien (CP English), Josh Grelle (CPR English)

The other half of "Brother 2", he is a typical otaku who sees the dojinshi concept as the leading pop-culture format of the 21st century. Grandiose in the expressions of his dreams, he takes charge of the logistical aspects of the partnership (paying registration fees, arranging printers, etc.), leaving the actual artwork to Kazuki.
