Gupta

Lavenna
- Nothing Exciting Ever Happens Here: An extreme example. It's shown she never really writes anything in her diary despite the exciting stuff that happens around her.
Seiichi and Tomoyo
A Japanese high school student and office lady that Guu swallowed at some point. They're oddly cheerful and extremely friendly, considering they live in the world of complete chaos that is Guu's stomach.
Chet and Addy
Chet is voiced by: Johnny Yong Bosch (EN, credited as Kevin Hatcher)
Addy is voiced by: Michelle Ruff (EN)
- Make-Out Kids
- Sickeningly Sweethearts (to the point where they appear on the trope's image!)
Wagi
Voiced by: Yuri Lowenthal (EN)
Yamada
Another Japanese office lady Guu inadvertently swallows one day while fishing (i.e., draining the ocean and keeping the fish) with Haré. She's a bit...crazy. Poor Seiichi and Tomoyo.
- Driven to Suicide (to temper herself in hell so she can get revenge on her cheating boss as an evil ghost.)
- Yandere
Bell and Asio
Asio is voiced by: Sam Riegel (EN)
A pair of Weda's servants from her old life who come from the city to retrieve her.
- Face of a Thug (No one seems to find Asio's eyes warm.)
- Incompatible Orientation (Bell clearly does have feelings for Weda, whereas Weda absolutely doesn't "swing that way").
- Jerkass (Bell is very obnoxious most of the time)
- Meido (Bell is a parody)
- Rant-Inducing Slight (Bell)
- Unlucky Childhood Friend (Asio has known Weda since she was a sick little girl and seems to have some feelings for her.)
- Bell could be considered to be something of this as well.
Robert
A bodyguard hired by Weda's family who escorts Weda, Hare, and Guu to the estate. He's paranoid. To say the least.
- Crazy Survivalist: Robert is always on the look out for "terrorist attacks" and "assassins".
- Drives Like Crazy: Instead of it being bad driving skills, it's due to his extreme paranoia. In his first appearance he even mistakes a couple driving behind him as undercover hitmen.
- Trigger Happy
