Protagonists
Haken Browning (Voiced by Nobuyuki Hiyama)
The protagonist of Endless Frontier, 23-year-old Haken Browning is captain of the dimension-travelling vehicle Zeit Krokodil (German for "Time Crocodile") and a bounty hunter, faithfully followed by his Sidekick Aschen Brodel. He's also a ladies' man, complimenting everyone of the fairer sex. He has Sanger Zonvolt's colour scheme and Excellen Browning's surname, but is defined as Kyosuke Nanbu's Expy; he takes on the role of the calm, cool leader and has a gambling habit, even naming most of his attacks after gambling stints (Texas Hold'em, High Low Draw, etc.)
He also seems to attract a number of beings similar to Personal Troopers, only double a human's size. These turn out to be Gespents of the Shadow-Mirror organization, modified in the Endless Frontier by the Orchestral Army to resemble the blueprints of the much larger Shadow-Mirror mecha. As it turns out, he's W00, the Super Prototype of Lemon Browning's W-Numbers. The rest were robots and mostly-machine cyborgs rather than extremely enhanced humans like Haken because they decided it took too long to wait for him to grow up.
Haken carries two weapons with him at all times: the Night Fowl rifle and the Longtomb Special revolver. He embodies these tropes:
- Ascended Fanboy: Vice Chief Lee Ly of the Zeit Krokodil often mocks his cowboy costume.
- Badass Longcoat
- BFG: The Longtomb can disassemble itself into an Big Fraggin' Cannon. In the sequel Endless Frontier EXCEED, it doubles as a portable Wave Motion Gun.
- Bodyguard Crush: For Kaguya Nanbu
- Casanova Wannabe: Subversion...at first, as he flirts with every girl and gets turned down, but eventually wins Kaguya's heart...and maybe a little more...
- Combination Attack: Phantom Hold 'Em and Rampage Specter; the former with the Gespenst Phantom, while the latter is Haken simply summoning the Alt Eisen Nacht and Weiss Ritter Abend, instead.
- Generation Xerox: Hilariously played with: although Haken isn't John Moses's biological son, John mistakes Kaguya for a call-in escort the first time they meet. No wonder Haken's such a Lovable Sex Maniac.
- Gratuitous English: A lot, such as "OK!", "Bingo!" and "Last showdown!"
- Gratuitous Spanish: Sort of; he does say "Adios!" often.
- Guns Akimbo
- The Gunslinger: Combines Types C and D
- Opposite Gender Clone: Lemon did use her blood to create him...
- Shout-Out: Haken means "hook" in German and he arrived in the Endless Frontier on a ship called Neverland, with a navigation computer called Tinkerbell. The Zeit Krokodil refers to a certain crocodile that ate, amongst other things, a clock and one captain's hand. Do you get it?
- Super Prototype
- Super Soldier: Implied
- Swiss Army Gun/Bayonet Ya: The Night Fowl's a customized assault rifle that fires normal rounds with an underslung piledriver below the rifle's barrel and a fold-out bayonet in the stock.
- Theme Naming: All his attacks are related in some way to poker: Texas Hold 'Em, High Low Draw, Best Flush, Five Card Stud, Jackpot, Last Showdown.
- The Nicknamer: Every single person he meets.
- White-Haired Pretty Boy: Heroic, nonetheless.
Kaguya Nanbu (Voiced by Yukana)
The young, innocent princess of the Nanbu Clan in Kagura Amahara, Kaguya's the heiress of the sword-fighting style Jinraku Tengen. On her first meeting with Haken, she unknowingly hires him and Aschen to escort her in her pilgrimage. Throughout her travels, her relationship with Haken grows more forward than that... and she's hot... yeah...
Although she has Kyosuke's surname, she seems to be more of a loose Expy of Excellen, since her personality is almost like her: innocent, playful and the one to provide the most Fan Service (not that she tries to invoke it, unlike Excellen). She also has more Sanger references than Haken, starting from her sword Goushiki Zankantou to her styling herself as "The Sword That Cleaves Evil", and Sanger's trademark "CHEESTOOOOOO!!!!". Some of the tropes that represent Kaguya are:
- BFS
- Detached Sleeves
- The Ditz
- Fan Nickname: Hmm...dresses in black and white, check; has large "milk-producing" body parts, check; yup: "Princess Cow/Moo". Coincidentally, her In-Series Nickname is "Dairy Cow Princess".
- Gag Boobs: She doesn't get all of those nicknames for nothing.
- Gainaxing: Often
- Gratuitous Japanese: Altus decided to keep her entire movelist in Japanese.
- Hot Chick with a Sword
- Heir to the Dojo
- Moe Moe: Definitely fits the "curvy moe" type.
- Ms. Fanservice: Not only is her outfit too revealing, but her melons are definitely bigger than Aschen's, who is a Lamia Loveless Expy, and we know Lamia has the largest ones in Original Generation. Kaguya probably beats her in that department, too.
- Multicolored Hair: Black and red
- The Ojou
- Running Gag: Almost every character or villain after their introduction mistake her as a "cow" or "werecow". Judging by how she dresses up and her huge "tracts of land", this is completely justified.
- Rapunzel Hair: A ponytail as long as she is tall.
- Shout-Out: Lots of them, especially to Sanger. Her name, however, is a call to the same Princess Kaguya of the Japanese folklore tale "The Tale Of the Bamboo Cutter", which is referred to in-game.
- Stripperiffic: Her clothes are just way too tight and it reveals her ample bosom AND her shoulders.
- Zettai Ryouiki
Aschen Brodel (Voiced by Kaori Shimizu)
Haken's loyal and devoted sidekick, Aschen's a green-haired combat cyborg capable of emitting human-like emotions...sometimes. At first, you'd think she's a blatant Expy of Lamia, but it's justified: Aschen's, in fact, her predecessor (or, to a lesser extent, "sister") codenamed W07. She, along with Haken and the rest of W-Numbers 1 through 9 were the first to be sent to the Original Generation universe during Beowulf's attack, but they were put in the first batch of the teleportation device, namely the unstable ones. Haken and Aschen stumbled into the Endless Frontier and have been there for the past twenty-three years.
Unlike Lamia, who's mostly stoic unless the situation requires, Aschen's more than just stoic. She has a sharp tongue and at times flings insults, especially regarding Haken's womanizing attitude, and invents other derisive nicknames like "Dairy Cow Princess" or "Princess Flat" (for Suzuka-hime). She's also installed with Code DTD (Dust-to-Dust), but instead of it being a Chekhov's Gun, she uses it for full advantage as a power-up, with a side-effect of turning her personality into a total Genki Girl. Being a combat cyborg, she doesn't need a weapon: she fights with bare hands and feet (although the rest of her body carries an assortment of weapons like missiles, disk cutters and shotguns mounted to her heels). Tropes associated with her are:
- Artificial Human
- Armed Legs: Shotgun boots and rocket batteries in her thighs.
- Brainwashed and Crazy
- Calling Your Attacks: "ASCHEN PUNCH!"
- Deadpan Snarker: "I will write something insulting on that billboard you call a chest".
- Everything's Better with Spinning
- The Four Gods: Her moveset incorporates attacks called "Tigress Bite", "Genbu Spike" and "Dragon Scale", while her Overdrive is aptly named "Phantasm Phoenix" (doubles as a Shout-Out to Lamia's "Phantom Phoenix" for the Angelg).
- Gratuitous English: Similar to Haken, there's a lot, like "Fire!" and "Striking!"
- Rocket Punch: She uses a wired variant for Rapid-Fire Fisticuffs in many of her attacks.
- Shout-Out:
- Aside from Lamia, try translating her name into German: as per the usual fairy tale Theme Naming, her name translates into "Cinderella". Likewise, if she attacks with her feet, she sometimes yells out "Glass Heel", a signature item from the story.
- In Endless Frontier EXCEED, she gives a Shout-Out to Super Robot Wars 64, namely her multi-target Overdrive "Gravity Howling", a call to "Bloody Howling", the ultimate attack of 64's female ultimate Super Robot Simurgh Splendid, which Lamia's mecha Angelg is an Expy of.
- Some of her new skills in EXCEED are called Code: Amphisbaena and Code: Empusa, which are Greek mythological monsters like the lamia. One of the meanings for the former is "both ways" and its appearance is that of a serpentine monster with a head at each end. The attack involves grabbing one of the enemies and a random object offscreen with her Rocket Punches and slamming them together.
- Split Personality: When activating Code DTD or if she overheats.
- Stripperific: Her Overdrive "sheds" the green parts of her body, revealing an ample bosom like Kaguya's and thighs.
- Unknown Rival: Seems to think of KOS-MOS as her rival, even challenging her to a fight during their first meeting. KOS-MOS ignores this completely.
Suzuka-hime (Voiced by Mamiko Noto)
A Shiki-Oni princess from Kagura Amahara, Suzuka is Kaguya's childhood friend and is currently betrothed to another Oni, Shuten (who's not necessarily evil...), bumping into our heroes and joining them in their endeavor.
She uses an unusual style of dance that lets her command a mecha (just about as tall as the mecha found in the game) called "Jyaki-GUN-Oh" (Devil Gun King), which somehow manages to get itself classified as a Choukijin. As far as beauty goes, Haken calls her a "Midriff Beauty", but Aschen dubs her "Princess Flat" (with good reason); Suzuka doesn't take kindly to the latter. Some of the tropes she adheres to include:
- Bare Your Midriff
- Dance Battler: She doesn't know Capoeira, but when she dances, the Jyaki-GUN-Oh comes and kicks your ass.
- Gratuitous Disco Sequence: A disco ball even appears during some attacks!
- Hand Puppet: According to the localized website for the game, the Jyaki-GUN-Oh's actually a puppet on strings, made to resemble a mecha.
- Gatling Good/Macross Missile Massacre/More Dakka: Jyaki-GUN-Oh's attacks.
- Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: Her and Shuten
- Noblewoman's Laugh: This coming from Mamiko Noto, it's just surprising.
- Only Sane Man: Compared to the the rest of the party, Suzuka fits this trope nicely.
- The Ojou: Portrays this trope slightly better than Kaguya.
- Really Seven Hundred Years Old: Part of her being an oni.
- Runaway Fiance
- Shout-Out:
- "Jyaki-GUN Fingeeer!"
- Compared some of the Jyaki-GUN-Oh's starter attacks to that of the Alt Eisen.
- What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?: She can make the Jyaki-GUN-Oh wail on an enemy... with DISCO, complete with a disco ball and multicoloured lights.
Aledy Naash (voiced by Tomokazu Seki)
Protagonist for the sequel Endless Frontier EXCEED, Aledy Naash's a Shura warrior sent by his mentor Cindy Bird to investigate the new emergence of Einst-like crystals in the newly formed Endless Frontier, as well as the missing machine Ark-On. He's assisted by the lost princess of Elfetale Neige Hausen.
The only link between him with the main series is that he's a Shura and is a practioner of Kishin Ken. Coupled with the surname Naash, Epileptic Trees occur on whether he's related to the previous Shura King Alkaid Naash or not.
- Combination Attack
- Expy:
- Fish Out of Water: A bit worse than Folka, since Aledy's more clueless about the opposite sex. In fact, he doesn't even know what "handsome" means.
- Hot-Blooded: JUST LOOK AT HIS VOICE ACTOR!!
- Ki Attacks
- Rapid-Fire Fisticuffs
- Redheaded Hero
- Spell My Name with an "S": Is it Aledy or Alady?
- Shout-Out: Of all things, to "Aladdin"
- The Stoic: Unless he's yelling his Kiai, Aledy's a pretty reserved guy.
Neige Hausen (voiced by Nana Mizuki)
Female protagonist in Endless Frontier EXCEED, Neige's a princess of the fairies in the Elfetale Kingdom, which was wrecked by the Einsts following the first game, now accompanying Aledy in his quest. Later acquires the Fee-Kleid unit.
- Attack Reflector: Parts of Neige's techniques involves her conjuring mirrors which deflects the solid rounds fired from her weapon with exceptional accuracy. May double as Improbable Aiming Skills, as none of the rounds manages to hit her.
- Combination Attack
- Hair of Gold
- Hammerspace: Aside from the mirrors, she pulls those apple grenades from Victoria's Secret Compartment.
- Noblewoman's Laugh: Complete with hand-next-to-mouth pose.
- Princess Curls: Literally
- Really Seven Hundred Years Old: 117, to be precise.
- Sexy Backless Outfit: Her Meido outfit gets a backless variant.
- Shout-Out: Neige means "snow" in French, and she's a princess who throws around exploding apples and encases enemies in glass coffins she blasts through and reflects lasers off mirrors in battle. What other person out there could possibly fit with snow, princess, mirrors, apples and glass coffins? Just to make it even more blatant, every single one of her moves except her Overdrive is named after elements of the original story, and her age can be taken as Snow White's age when she reawakens.
- Swiss Army Gun: Like Haken's Night Fowl, her Blade on a Stick doubles as a BFG that fires solid-based ammo and Frickin' Laser Beams... and also functions as a guitar.
- Tsundere: She instantly gets pegged as one during her introduction to one of the other characters. It turns out to be spot on.
- Verbal Tic: Has a tendency to add "do-" before words (making it "do-(noun/verb)"); it approximately means "super (noun/verb)".
ORCHESTRAL ARMY
The elite unit of Formido Heim, the world that invaded Elfetale and caused the Ten Year War which ended once they offered a ceasefire. Their members are Token Loli Black Magician Girl Kyon Feulion, black-winged valkyrie Henne Valkyria and skull-headed leader Ezel Granada. Utilizing various hi-tech equipment like Light Sabers and combat robots, they now roam around Elfetale and cause the Cross Gates that connects between worlds to be unstable. The bad guys, right? Wrong! Turns out Formido Heim's actually trying to prevent an Einst invasion, who created an imposter of their deceased king, pushing Formido Heim into war. The group's vice-captain, Katze Kotolnos, leaves them and becomes The Atoner.
In EXCEED, they aid the main party as support members. Aschen, having been given an offer to join by Henne at the end of the first game, is currently a member.

- Oh, and Ryotaro Okiayu as Katze. Think a really flamboyent |Akio Furukawa...
- Rapunzel Hair: Kyon has ankle length.

- Shout-Out:
- Their former frontline fortress, the Poker Castle, was under the command of "Hum Dum". The fortress carries random ["Mook encounters of card soldiers, a chest in the castle holds the "Cheshire" armor"] and Reiji Arisu joins the party here.
- Also a Shout-Out to "The Bremen Town Musicians". Henne, Ezel and Katze are "hen", "donkey" and "cat" in German, respectively, while Kyon... or Kuon... is "dog" in Greek.
- Spell My Name with an "S": Is it Orchestral or Orchestre?
- Token Loli/Tagalong Kid: Kyon
- Unknown Rival: A minor version where Kyon feels her Token Loli status is threatened when M.O.M.O joins the party in the sequel; M.O.M.O isn't aware of this.
Elfetale
The denizens of Elfetale, made up of talking animals, fairies and elves. They were the primary targets during the Ten Year War with Formido Heim and thus, were hit the hardest. A majority of the elves fled the onslaught, seeking refuge in the Shura world.

- Lolicon: Possibly...
- Shock and Awe
- Meaningful Name: His name's derived from "Shutendouji", the giant ruler of Oni in Japanese folklore.

Agrado Heim
One of the driving forces behind the events of EXCEED and the main antagonists of the game. They were at war with the Shura of Hakoku, with several of their members being familiar with Aledy or one of the other Shura generals. They share many similarities with the denizens of Formido Heim.
Gagun Laos/Gymnos Basileus
A description of the character goes here.
- Not Quite Dead His soul's currently possessing W05's body.
- For the Evulz: The entire plot of EXCEED, as well as the motivation of Agrado Heim, revolves around trying to gather enough restless souls to power their own World Tree to cross to another dimension. This was the entire reason why they made war with the Shura, but also the reason why they sought the surviving Einst, brought chaos across the Endless Frontier and attempted to corrupt the Fujisakura. Were they to succeed, they plan to start the process all over again.
- Thanatos Gambit: They include themselves among the restless souls they plan to harvest.

Gand Siblings
A description of the character goes here.
Members: Vanar Gand, Hela Gand, Jolm Gand. How they classify as "siblings" despite being entirely different species is a mystery.

- Sacrificial Lion: All three sacrifice their souls to empower Gagun, who then transforms into the Svaiser.
- Sphere of Destruction: Hela's Overdrive
Shadow-Mirror
One of the driving forces behind both games, they are the same-named faction from the main series. One of the Shadow Mirror's Neverland class battleships broke in two during a dimensional jump, with the front and rear parts landing in Formido Heim and Lost Herencia, respectively. Their commander androids, the W Numbers, are key characters all games.
There are still 5 W Numbers unaccounted for.
W00
See: Haken Browning.
W03 Pete Pain (Voiced by Yuuichi Nakamura)
A W Number designed to eliminate other W Numbers, tasked with "clean up" and ensure that sensitive information does not fall in enemy hands. He uses his unique command code, PTP, to control both Aschen and a (rebuilt) Cardia. He orders Cardia to self-destruct at a specific point, and intended to kill Haken by ordering Aschen to do the same. A timely intervention by Axel activates DTD, which overrides PTP. Rebuilds various mechs, like Arkgain and the Gespensts, and tries to assassinate W05 but fails. He eventually self-destructs to allow the party into Aggrado Heim (after failing to assassinate them for the last time).
- Marionette Master: PTP = Play The Puppet.
- Pimp: Invokes this trope unintentionally at one point when he has both Aschen and Cardia flanking him.
- Standard Status Effects: Appropriate, as he's not really a "fighting" android, and more of a "command" type.
- Shout-Out: Peter Pan. He and the other W numbers arrived on the ship known as Neverland. The ship's computer is called Tinkerbell. How many times would you like to be beaten on the head?
- The Atoner
W05
See: Agrado Heim.

W07
See: Aschen Brodel.

Crew of the Zeit Krokodil
A description of the character goes here.
- Expy: Professor Marion Sumii to Doctor Marion Radom.

Einst
The Big Bads of the first game, the source of all the conflict that occurred in the Endless Frontier. When the over ambitious king of Formido Heim attempted to explore a recently opened Cross Gate, he returned possessed by an Einst. The impostor started a war of genocide with Elfetale. The Einst also possessed the three machines that accompanied him: the Nacht, the Abend and the Arkgain. Their leader is [1]
- A God Am I: In sharp constrast to their "father", Neue Regisseur.
- Eldritch Abomination
- Bonus Boss: Ezel was unable to vanquish the Einst who impersonated the Formido Heim's king, and the best he could do was seal it. It falls upon the players to truly annihilate the strongest boss in the first game.
- Meaningful Name:
- Persoen Lichkeit = Personality.
- Wahrschein Lichkeit = Probability.
- Wesent Lichkeit = Materiality\Essentiality.
- Not Quite Dead: You think that's the last you'll see of Wahrschein Lichkeit? Hah!

Like the other robots from the first game, it was built by Formido Heim befor the Ten Years War using the data in the computer Tinkerbell. Gespenst Phantom was based on Gespenst Haken, W00's personal unit. When Cardia Basirisa encounter Phantom, she restore its original program and make it work for her. Beaten by Haken whom Phantom recognized as its master, Phantom shut down the system by itself, allow him to capture it and has Marion modified it with voice control system. After the group defeat Nacht and Abend, Phantom also upload its program to those two and thus allow Haken to command it. Phantom serve Haken faithfully, by start of EXCEED, it is the only robot that still accompany Haken while Nacht and Abend run amok because of Pete Pain using Tinkebell to hack into their system. Phantom, however, is totally loyal to Haken because of its core program and thus immune to Pete's hacking.
