{{Characters need descriptions}}
Characters from ''[[{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}]]'' include:
== SSA's Schoolgirl Astronauts ==
=== Yukari Morita ===
[[File:Rocket Girls Yukari.jpg|frame]]
:
The story's protagonist, Yukari is stubborn, tough, petite, and incredibly lucky - in short, perfect astronaut material. Although she initially considers her job as an astronaut a necessary evil and a means to an end -- that end being finding her long-missing father -- she eventually comes to take a certain pride in her position and her accomplishments in it. Yukari is most likely the Beauty in the SSA astronauts' [[Beauty, Brains, and Brawn]] trio -- but that doesn't mean she's [[Brainless Beauty|brainless]]. Not by a long shot.
{{examples|Tropes exhibited by Yukari include:}}
* [[Oblivious to Love]]: Appears to be more or less unaware that Akane has a massive crush on her. (Or is faking it well.)
* [[Only Sane Man]]: Yukari, especially from her perspective. Surrounded by an overly ambitious executive, a surprisingly cold-blooded doctor, a mad scientist, a jungle girl who can't shut up about "fireworks"? Yeah. And then there's {{spoiler|her father}}.
* [[Ordinary High School Student]]: Yukari prior to becoming an astronaut. For the first few weeks following her return to Earth, she tries to insist that she still is one.

=== Matsuri Morita ===
[[File:Rocket Girls Matsuri.jpg|frame]]
:voiced by [[Hitomi Nabatame]]
Half-Japanese, Half-Polynesian, Matsuri turns out to be Yukari's younger half-sister, the daughter of Yukari's missing father. Given some of the things she's endured during the course of the show, Matsuri is most likely the Brawn in the SSA astronauts' [[Beauty, Brains, and Brawn]] trio.
{{examples|Tropes exhibited by Matsuri include:}}
Line 23 ⟶ 30:
* [[Nubile Savage]]
* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Matsuri puts ketchup and mayonnaise on everything.
{{hardline}}
=== Akane Miura ===
[[File:Rocket Girls Akane.jpg|frame]]
:voiced by [[Shizuka Hasegawa]]
{{examples|Tropes exhibited by Akane include:}}
* [[Determinator]]: She flat-out refused any help in order to become an astronaut.
* [[Jumped At the Call]]: Akane turns Jumping at the Call [[Up to Eleven]], spending her life savings to get to the SSA on the off chance that she might simply be allowed to apply.
* [[Weak but Skilled]]: The most delicate of the SSA astronauts (she routinely passes out during launches), Akane is also the appointed mission specialist, charged with handling technical and scientific tasks that are beyond the capabilities of her fellow astronauts.

== SSA Ground Crew ==
=== Isao Nasuda ===

=== Kazuya Kinoshita ===
[[File:Character Image.jpg|frame]]
:voiced by [[Takaya Kuroda]]
'''A description of the character goes here.'''
{{examples|Tropes exhibited by Kinoshita include:}}
* [[Reasonable Authority Figure]]
* [[Salaryman]]: Kinoshita was one of these before he decided to follow his childhood dreams and become an astronaut. After failing screening due to a medical condition, he ended up becoming the SSA's mission director instead.
{{hardline}}
=== Satsuki Asahikawa ===
[[File:Character Image.jpg|frame]]
:voiced by [[Mayumi Yanagisawa]]
'''A description of the character goes here.'''
{{examples|Tropes exhibited by Satsuki include:}}
* [[Hyper Awareness]]: Satsuki makes an absurdly accurate "estimate" of Yukari's measurements just by eyeballing her. Later, she does the same with Akane.
{{hardline}}
=== Hiroyuki Mukai ===

:voiced by [[Jin Domon]]

=== Motoko Mihara ===
[[File:Character Image.jpg|frame]]
:voiced by [[Machiko Toyoshima]]
Line 64 ⟶ 92:
{{examples|Tropes exhibited by Mihara include:}}
* [[Mad Bomber]]: Her ... enjoyment of [[Stuff Blowing Up|explosions]] might qualify her; it's pretty obvious that the only thing keeping her randomly blowing up bits of the landscape for fun is that her job ''pays her'' to play with dangerous explosives.
* [[Mad Scientist]]: She's fascinated with oxidation, the faster the better. (In layman's terms, she really likes [[Stuff Blowing Up]].) When she needed platinum as a catalyst for the new fuel she was testing, she used her own wedding ring to provide it!
* [[Scary Shiny Glasses]]
{{hardline}}
== Others ==
=== Haruyuki Yasukawa ===
[[File:Character Image.jpg|frame]]
:voiced by [[Kazunari Tanaka]]
SSA's first astronaut, he quits when he's ordered to lose a dangerous amount of weight. He becomes the island's taxi driver.
{{examples|Tropes exhibited by Yasukawa include:}}
* [[Butt Monkey]]
