Line 31 ⟶ 26:

[[File:misonous_jpg_4016.jpg|frame]]
[[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|Nanako's mom and dad.]] {{spoiler|[[Subverted Trope|Not exactly.]] Her dad is actually her stepfather, and married Nanako's mom when she was five. He is also the biological father of Takehiko Henmi.}}

[[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|Nanako's mom and dad.]] {{spoiler|[[Subverted Trope|Not exactly.]] Her dad is actually her stepfather, and married Nanako's mom when she was five. He is also the biological father of Takehiko Henmi.}}
 
----
 
* {{spoiler|[[Drowning My Sorrows]]: Prof. Misonoo, in the past. }}
* [[Good Parents]]: It's clear that they love Nanako and try to raise her as lovingly as they can.
** {{spoiler|[[Parents Asas People]]: ... Though both of them hide Takehiko's existence to Nanako, and later Mrs. Misonoo asks Takehiko to not reveal their true bond to her either. (In their defense, though, they didn't fully abandon Takehiko after his mother's death, sending him the money he needed until he could fend off by himself).}}
* {{spoiler|[[Parent Withwith New Paramour]]: Nanako's mom married Professor Misonoo when Nanako was five.}}
* [[Yamato Nadeshiko]]: Nanako's [[Hot Mom]], who's even always seen in a kimono.
* {{spoiler|[[Your Cheating Heart]]: The Prof. turned to drinking when his first wife left him and took their kid (Takehiko) away with her, and it was during these days that he met Nanako's mom (the beautiful waitress of his favorite pub) and fell for her. However, the letter that demanded Nanako's ousting from the Sorority accused the second Mrs. Misonoo of being a homewrecker, which she obviously wasn't.}}
 
=== Takehiko Henmi {{spoiler|(alias Takehiko Misonoo.)}} ===
[[File:oniisamae_takehiko_4660.jpg|frame]] {{spoiler|(alias Takehiko Misonoo.)}}
 
[[File:oniisamae_takehiko_4660.jpg|frame]]
 
Nanako's former tutor, who helped her to get into Seiran. Nanako writes letter to him to tell her how her highschool life is, and refers to him as "Oniisama" ("Older brother").
 
{{spoiler|He is actually the son of Professor Misonoo, from a former marriage. (Hence why the different surname, with "Henmi" being Takehiko's mom's maiden name.) Therefore he ''is'' Nanako's older brother, sorta. Unlike Nanako, he knows about their relationship; however, he hasn't been in direct contact with the Professor for several years, despite the death of his mother some years after the (rather bitter) divorce process, and how both the Prof. and Nanako's mom secretly provided young Takehiko with the money needed for his expenses until he could support himself. }}

=== Tomoko Arikura ===
 
[[File:oniisamae_tomoko_jpg_8302.jpg|frame]]

{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by this character include:}}
 
----
 
* [[Ascended Extra]]: Gets FAR more spotlight in the anime than the manga, since in the first she rekindles her friendship to Nanako much faster than the latter.

Line 79 ⟶ 63:
* [[Naive Everygirl]]
* [[Plucky Girl]]
* [[Precision F-Strike]]: Drops a "you bitches"! when Aya's [[Girl Posse]] step in on episode 29, followed by a [[Cat Fight]] since {{spoiler|they insulted Mariko and called her "prospect murderer" for her [[Girl Withwith Psycho Weapon]] stint.}}
* [[Romantic Two-Girl Friendship]]: With Nanako
* [[Tomboy]]: Wears her hair in a mix of [[Hime Cut]] and [[Tomboyish Ponytail]], and uses pants more often than Nanako. Not to mention she's far more straightforward.

=== Mariko Shinobu ===
 
[[File:oniisamae_mariko_jpg_5633.jpg|frame]]

Line 117 ⟶ 97:
* [[Younger Than They Look]]: With her ruby-red lips and [[Raven Hair, Ivory Skin]] features, 16-year-old Mariko looks at least 18. Lampshaded twice: when she and Nanako [[Bathtub Bonding|take a bath together]] and [[Pettanko|Nanako]] notices that Mariko [[Buxom Is Better|is very curvaceous]] compared to her; and when, in the fair episode, Takashi directly asks Mariko "what, are you ''really'' sixteen?!"

* {{spoiler|[[Heel Face Turn]]. In the anime rendition of the Sorority Disolution arc, she's made somewhat more sympathetic, and it culminates in this.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Hidden Depths]]: Again in the anime, the aforementioned Dissolution arc shows us what lays behind her psyche. [[Heroic Self-Deprecation|It's... not pretty]].}}
Line 138 ⟶ 114:
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: Aya's supreme arrogance and belief that she can pull a [[Karma Houdini]] on almost everything get her verbally or physically mauled more than once. Specially when she {{spoiler|taunts her rival Mariko due to her horrible home life - she pressed Mariko's biggest [[Berserk Button]] ''to the freaking bottom'' and ended up slashed by her boxcutter.}}

The second of the "Magnificent Three", Kaoru is also the most tomboyish and levelheaded. She and Rei have been friends for years, and loathes Fukiko for her treatment of her. She takes a [[Cool Big Sis]] role for Nanako, Mariko and Tomoko, as she is the [[Class Representative]] to their class (due to some personal problems she had to be held back for a year, thus she's a first year student despite being older than the rest). {{spoiler|Also has romantic ties to Takehiko, and a huge secret in regards to her health.}}

(Though at the cost of them growing apart, as well as Mr. Shinobu [[Tragic Dream|having to write his succesful erotica rather than the more meaningful literature he was fond of]].)}}
* [[Rihoko Yoshida]]
* {{spoiler|[[Stepford Smiler]]: Hides the terrible pain coming from her and Mr. Shinobu's decaying relationship. In the anime, Mariko calls her out on it. [[Oniisama E (Manga)e.../Tear Jerker|"Mom! you... you're crying again!"]].}}
