Mabaka - Magic is for Idiots!/Characters: Difference between revisions

[[File:headshot1_1546.png|frame]]

 

 

Rokuro is an amateur wizard who crash-landed head-first into Akemi's yard one day in April. [[Weirdness Magnet|He seems to attract trouble wherever he goes]], and seldom comes up with a way to get out of it by himself. He also seems to have a crush on Akemi despite the fact that she's taken.

16-year-old [[Miko|shrine maiden]] who likes to think of herself as one of the sanest people she knows. While most of the time she's considered a tomboy, when she's with [[Love Interest|Daisuke]], she goes into a surprisingly girly, [[Tsundere|dere-dere]] mode. She has little tolerance for stupidity, and likes things to go her way.

Maruchi is Rokuro's ''majikyou'' (Magic instructor) who made his first appearance in chapter seven [[Shape Shifter|as a purple kitten]]. He is barely half of Rokuro's height, and tends to be classified as either a [[Jerkass|huge jerk]] or [[Bratty Half-Pint|a brat]]. However, despite his outward appearance, [[Older Than They Look|he is actually close to]] [[Really Seven Hundred Years Old|three hundred years old]] [[Wise Beyond Their Years|and has an IQ more than two times higher than Isaac Newton's.]] He's also known to be racist against humans, and sometimes even sexist, but not to any particularly serious degress.

Shigeru is Akemi's [[Overprotective Dad]] and Meiko's more sensible younger brother by four years. He is noted to have no real, steady job, but is both an English tutor and the substitute coach for his old high school's kendo team. Sometimes he helps his sister with the names for [[Mangaka|her comic]] because she's usually too busy or lazy to do them herself.

Rie is Akemi's classmate and foil best friend. She's very much into the occult and the idea of magic, and [[Genki Girl|acts very enthusiastic about it]]. Rie is also a proud [[Otaku]], and a fangirl of [[Full Moon o Sagashite|Izumi Rio]]. She is great at school, especially English, despite the fact that all she does during class it read (Whether it be manga or an occult book). She's also Daisuke's younger sister by a year.

Daisuke is Rie's older brother, Akemi's boyfriend, and a second year student at Okashii High. By his profile, he's shown to be a B+ student and a member of the kendo team. He's a truly nice guy with good morals, and is absolutely ''[[Only Sane Man|the]]'' [[Only Sane Man|sanest person in the cast]], but will fly off the handle if you do anything to upset or hurt Akemi. ''[[Berserk Button|He will kick your ass, then.]]'' Like Rokuro, Daisuke is afraid of Shigeru.

Hideki is the only other wizard known at the moment. He is Rokuro's [[Bromantic Foil|best friend]], and extremely confident when it comes to getting girls. [[Casanova Wannabe|Even though he's never succeeded once.]] He just comes off as a pervert. He's also been known to screw up and slack off, [[Lazy Bum|and even has a schedule made for skipping classes]]. Despite these qualities, Hideki is shown to be very concerned with the wellfare of his friends, and is helping Rokuro keep the fact that he's now on Earth for a year secret.

Shichi is another resident of [[Another Dimension|Kitakuvaaraji]]. He first appears as an evil spirit, scaring Rie from her home so he could live there while training to become a majikyou, but is later caught and revealed to be a [[Motor Mouth|very talkative]] [[Cute Shotaro Boy|boy]] with the power to control shadows. Shichi is also revealed to be {{spoiler|Maruchi's second and youngest brother}}, and admires him very much. He's two hundred and ten years old and colorblind (Which partly explains his horrible taste in fashion).

[[File:Meiko_7383.png|frame]]

 

 

Meiko was the first other Segawa family member to get a formal introduction in ''Mabaka!''. She is the eccentric older sister of Shigeru, and Akemi's only aunt. She's an extremely happy person, and makes her feelings and thoughts known loudly and bluntly. She loves her little brother very much, and is insulted by the fact that he refuses to work with her on her manga, Yamato Master.

* [[Genki Girl]]: Even at her age...

* [[Insistent Terminology]]

** She also insists that Akemi call her 'Aunt Meiko' instead of 'Meiko-obasan', simply because she thinks Akemi needs to work on her English.

* [[Lethal Chef]]: Is incapable of making food edible. Her whole family dreads it when she walks into a kitchen.

The most worrisome character of the story. He's a company worker who married into the Segawa family by marrying Meiko. He's a rather nervous man, and he's known to [[Apologizes a Lot|apologize a lot]] - Mainly to Shigeru. When altercations break out between the two siblings, Tsukkomi is the one who tries to remain neutral and calm them down. He's also the tallest character in the series.

[[File:Emiri_7195.png|frame]]

 

 

Emiri is Akemi's eleven-year-old cousin. She's the daughter of Tsukkomi and Meiko, and seems to be more like [[Only Sane Man|her father]] than [[Adult Child|her mother]]. She has more common sense than most of her family does, as it's noted by Akemi. She may or may not be classified as a know-it-all, depending on who you ask. Apparently, she wants to go into the medical field when she's older. She also tends to invariably tick Rokuro off whenever they speak.
