The World Ends With You/Characters: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

 

 

== The Players (Protagonists) ==

 

=== Neku Sakuraba ===

 

The main character of the game. He suddenly finds himself in Shibuya's Underground (UG) with little in the way of direction. He loves graffiti and street art, but doesn't like to interact with people.

* [[Blue Eyes]]

* [[Chick Magnet]]: A disproportionate number of shopkeepers seem to develop crushes on Neku as their FSG rises.

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]

* [[Defrosting Ice Queen|Defrosting Ice King]]

** Also, the various male clerks met throughout the game start getting a little ''friendly'' to Neku after their FSG meter rises.

* [[Fan Boy]]: Of artist CAT.

* [[Headphones Equal Isolation]]: Neku keeps his 'phones on to block people out. {{spoiler|The ending shows a shot of him leaving them behind.}}

* [[The Hero]]: Starts out as a [[Designated Hero]] who's only out to survive, but gradually evolves into a true hero over the course of the game.

* [[Ineffectual Loner]]: Enforced example. If Neku doesn't team up with a partner and learn to cooperate with them, he'll get erased.

* [[Magic Knight]]

* [[Mistaken for Gay]]: Poor, poor Makoto.

* [[Mysterious Past]]: Besides Joshua, his past is the only one out of all the main Players that is never fully explored. [[Justified Trope|Justified]] considering his loss of memories from the outset of the game.

* [[Odd Couple]]: With every single partner he's ever teamed up with.

* [[Psychic Powers]]: He uses a varied collection of pins to combat the Noise.

* [[Real Men Wear Pink]]: The Lace Bonnet is a lolita headdress, and the Dragon Lady is a [[Qipao]]. They both give bonuses to Neku ''only''. That has some interesting implications, considering character-specific bonuses are normally from items the characters themselves like.

* [[Shonen Hair]]

* [[Sleeves Are for Wimps]]

* [[Straight Man]]: To several characters, but mostly for Beat.

* [[Troubled but Cute]]

* {{spoiler|[[Unwitting Pawn]]: To Joshua.}}

* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|You Gotta Have Orange Hair]]

 

[[File:WEWYShiki1.jpg|frame|"Let me in! Tell me what you're thinking!"]]

 

 

* [[Bare Your Midriff]]: {{spoiler|Averted by the Real Shiki.}}

* [[The Beast Master]]: Variation 4 with a animated stuffed cat.

* [[The Chick]]

* [[Combat Stilettos]]: {{spoiler|Averted in her real form, yet again.}}

* {{spoiler|[[The Faceless]]: When you finally see her real self, it's from the mouth down.}}

* [[Fan Girl]]: [[Alternative Character Interpretation|In Another Day]], at least.

* {{spoiler|[[Freaky Friday Flip]]: Shiki gave up her identity as her entry fee, playing the Reaper's Game in the guise of her best friend Eri.}}

* [[Girls Love Stuffed Animals]]

* [[Heroes Want Redheads]]: {{spoiler|Shiki meant that much to Neku by the end of week one, that she was made his second entry-fee. Subverted twice over: she's not really a redhead, and Kitaniji made her the entry fee because he ''couldn't'' revive her. However, since Neku is a redhead...}}

* Hipster: In [[Out of Character|Another Day]]

* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: She fights with an animated stuffed <s>piggy</s> cat named Mr. Mew that she made by herself when she was little. [[Demonic Dummy|Shiki doesn't actually control him, however...]] [[Empathic Weapon|but at least he's pretty nice.]]

** Keep in mind that Mr. Mew may move on its own, but Shiki is the one [[Mind Over Matter|keeping him up in the air]].

* [[Marionette Master]]: We did say something about her stuffed cat, right?

* {{spoiler|[[Meganekko]]: Shiki's ''real'' self.}}

* [[Nice Hat]]: The hat she ({{spoiler|or Eri}}) wears was designed by Eri and sewn by Shiki, just like everything else in their wardrobe. Shiki uses the hat to wear her Pins.

* [[Power Gesture|Psychic Gesture]]

* {{spoiler|[[Shrinking Violet]]}}: Her true personality.

* {{spoiler|[[Skirt Over Slacks]]}}

* [[Stripperiffic]]: Set this skirt just an inch lower and you have a game rated 16 and above. {{spoiler|Not so with her real self, though...}}

* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: Girly Girl to Rhyme. {{spoiler|And Tomboy to Eri.}}

 

 

=== Yoshiya "Joshua" Kiryu ===

 

A mysterious boy who showed up in the UG unexpectedly. Despite his air of arrogance and secrecy, his knowledge of the UG becomes helpful to Neku... when he feels like giving it. Has a long history with Hanekoma.

* [[Agent Peacock]]

* [[Ambiguously Gay]]

* [[Colony Drop]]: His Level 3 special drops the Moon onto Earth.

* [[Crucified Hero Shot]]

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]

* {{spoiler|[[Giggling Villain]]}}

* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: His cell phone, which he uses to drop objects on enemies.

* [[Insufferable Genius]]: Even more of one than Minamimoto, actually, because of his [[Jerkass]] tendencies.

* [[I See Dead People]]: Joshua knew about the Games before dying himself. {{spoiler|[[Unreliable Narrator|...or so Hanekoma says.]]}}

* [[Jerkass]]: Tends to insult Neku fairly often in a grating tone of voice, particularly when the player isn't doing particularly well in battle.

* [[The Lancer]]

* [[Magikarp Power]]: When you first get him, he's... not quite as good as Shiki was. He doesn't deal damage until he completes a combo chain and his sidestep isn't anywhere near as useful as Shiki's block. When you get the camera upgrade for his phone, he's a bit better, as he gains the ability to stun enemies, but he's still not very powerful. Then, {{spoiler|when he starts levitating}}, he easily becomes the best partner in the game.

* {{spoiler|[[Manipulative Bastard]]}}

* [[Real Men Wear Pink]]: The ''Frilly Parasol'' is one of his better items.

* {{spoiler|[[Restored My Faith in Humanity]]: Neku does this for him.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Slasher Smile]]: When he shoots Neku.}}

* [[Smug Smiler]]

* [[Viewers Are Geniuses]]: The [[Fan Nickname]] for his attacks are [[Theme Naming|thematically]] called "Jesus" attacks. The fact that {{spoiler|his name can be transliterated to "Jesus" and he's the Composer}} makes the naming [[Fridge Brilliance|all the more incredible]].

* {{spoiler|[[Villain Protagonist]]}}

* [[What Do You Mean Its Not Symbolic]]: His attacks can call down rays of light, meteors, and angels. All of them are named by the fanbase as "Jesus" attacks.

* {{spoiler|[[Willfully Weak]]}}: [[Averted]] and justified via Secret Reports. {{spoiler|Since he's from a different plane, it causes him to look much younger, lose several of his abilities, and lowers his power output.}} However, this lets him look like he's a participant in the game, so the Reapers completely ignore him while he makes his own plots.

 

=== Daisukenojo "Beat" Bito ===

[[File:Beat1.jpg|frame|"Come back when you grow a pair!"]]

 

 

* [[All There in the Manual]]: {{spoiler|The manual outright says Neku will eventually partner up with him no matter what. In fact, the order Neku partners up with his three allies are in order: Shiki, then Joshua, then Beat.}}

* [[Big Brother Instinct]]: {{spoiler|To Rhyme.}}

* [[Boke and Tsukkomi Routine]]: Develops one with [[Deadpan Snarker|Neku]] during their partnership. In the [[Alternate Continuity|Another Day]] continuity, he's a stand-up comedian with Rhyme, as well.

* [[Book Dumb]]: Beat's not particularly intelligent, but his impliedly-horrible performance at school doesn't seem to have much to do with how smart he actually is.

* [[Cannot Tell a Joke]]: In Another Day.

* [[Cool Board]]: [[Improbable Weapon User|Hell yeah.]]

* [[Determinator]]: On the 7th day {{spoiler|of his week}}, he starts to fade out due to {{spoiler|Not having erased any Players or scored any other points as a Reaper}}. His reaction? He just "pulls himself together" and keeps on fighting.

* [[Difficult but Awesome]]: You'll either hate or love his Fusion Star mechanic. If the cards are properly placed, you can potentially get enough stars for a Level 2 special move in a single combo, but it's often hard to find the cards you need, and you lose all of them if you take too long.

* [[Dumb Blond]]

* [[Dumb Muscle]]: He's not a bright kid, but he's strong.

** {{spoiler|[[Heel Face Turn]]: Beginning of the third week.}}

* [[Embarrassing First Name]]

* [[Fragile Speedster]]: He certainly knows how to skateboard, but doesn't do it in a way that could be called "safe." He's also incredibly fast on his board {{spoiler|while he's a Reaper}}, but doesn't have a lot of defense.

* [[Glass Cannon]]: Same as the above; great at damage-dealing, not-so-great at damage-taking.

* [[Idiot Hero]]

* [[Implausible Boarding Skills]]

* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: Beat fights using his skateboard.

** [[All There in the Manual]]: He uses a pin named Respect to control his board.

* [[Jive Turkey]]: Yo.

* [[Knight Templar Big Brother]]: He has a sister, {{spoiler|Rhyme}}, who he feels responsible enough for to {{spoiler|do a [[Face Heel Turn]] to save her}}.

* [[Mangst]]/[[Manly Tears]]: After {{spoiler|what happened to Rhyme}}, he gets prone to doing this.

* [[Memento MacGuffin]]: Rhyme's pendant becomes one for him. {{spoiler|[[Chekhov's Gun|It becomes quite important]] later on, when Neku finds it on the ground and returns it to Beat, who later returns the favor by saving his life.}}

* [[Nice Hat]]: A black hat with a large skull design. It matches Rhyme's hat nicely.

* [[Plucky Comic Relief]]

* {{spoiler|[[Senseless Sacrifice]]}}: {{spoiler|See below}}.

* [[Sleeves Are for Wimps]]

* [[Taking the Bullet]]: {{spoiler|Tragically tried doing this to save Rhyme from getting hit by a car, but managed to get them both killed instead. A more successful version of this happens later on when he saves Neku from an unexpected attack during the final moments of the game.}}

* [[Tough Love]]: {{spoiler|His parents were constantly pressuring him to get better grades, be more like his sister, and berating him when he didn't give results. Eventually he just gave up trying all together.}}

=== {{spoiler|Raimu}} "Rhyme" {{spoiler|Bito}} ===

[[File:rhyme1.jpg|frame|"We don't have time for mistakes either. Haste makes waste!]]

 

Beat's Game partner {{spoiler|and younger sister}}, who puts on a cheerful face and provided emotional support to Neku and the other Players.

* {{spoiler|[[Big Brother Worship]]: She's well aware of Beat's many flaws, but she accepts him for who he is anyway and still loves him all the same}}.

* [[Blue Eyes]]

* [[Bokukko]]/[[Shorttank]]

* [[Dumb Blonde]]: Averted. She is very smart for her age and always has a proverb or three to say.

* [[Hair of Gold]]

* {{spoiler|[[Killer Rabbit|Killer Squirrel]]: She became a cute Squirrel Noise after being erased.}}

* [[Nice Girl]]

* [[Nice Hat]]: She wears a black hat with a tiny skull design on it, matching Beat's hat.

* {{spoiler|[[Only Mostly Dead]]}}

* {{spoiler|[[Parental Favoritism]]: Unfortunately for her brother [[The Unfavorite|Beat]], who received the brunt of their criticism as a result.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Sacrificial Lamb]]: She gets erased in the first week by falling into a not-so-obvious trap set by Kariya and Uzuki.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Sixth Ranger Traitor]]: In Another Day.}}

* [[The Smart Guy]]

* [[Straight Man]]: To Beat for a while.

 

== The Reapers (Antagonists) ==

=== Koki Kariya and Uzuki Yashiro ===

Uzuki is voiced by [[Satomi Arai]] (JP) and [[Kate Higgins]] (ENG) }}

 

A Harrier Reaper duo who do a lot of the ground work during the Game. Kariya is always laid-back and relishes his job, making a game out of everything with Uzuki, who is almost constantly on edge.

 

* [[Affably Evil]]: Define ''evil''.

* [[Alliterative Name]]: Koki Kariya.

* [[Almighty Janitor]]: Kariya is actually one of the most powerful Reapers around.

* [[Anime Hair]]: Kariya.

* [[Blue Eyes]]: Uzuki.

* [[Brilliant but Lazy]]: Kariya has refused several promotions because he prefers working on the field. Beat is rightfully afraid of fighting him.

* [[Cool Shades]]: Kariya wears a cool-looking pair of orange-tinted shades.

* [[Can't Catch Up]]: After Uzuki's defeat, she reveals that the reason she's so desperate to go up on the ranks {{spoiler|is because she feels guilty for Kariya refusing his own promotion just so he could keep hanging out with her}}. In her own words:

* [[The Dark Chick]]: They ''both'' qualify.

* [[Dual Boss]]

* [[Laughably Evil]]: Their interactions together are often quite funny.

* [[Of Corsets Sexy]]: An odd example with Uzuki, considering it's over a turtleneck.

* [[Oral Fixation Fixation]]: Kariya's <s>lollipop</s> dango, to the point he is referred to as Lollipop by Beat.

* [[Sleeves Are for Wimps]]: Kariya.

* [[Those Two Bad Guys]]

 

=== Yodai Higashizawa ===

 

Acting as a proxy Game Master for Kitaniji on the first week (Shiki's chapter). He chooses to hide himself from the players until the 7th day and attempts to pound them to pieces with his immense strength.

* [[The Brute]]

* [[Determinator]]: The winning condition for the final day of the first week allows him to be able to give up without being erased, but he chooses to fight to the death instead.

* [[Disc One Final Boss]]: Sorry, bucko, [[Your Princess Is in Another Castle|game's not over yet.]]

* [[Energy Absorption]]: Can regain health if players attack him at the wrong time.

* [[Evil Tastes Good]]: He loves making food-based puns.

* [[Large and In Charge]]

* [[Large Ham]]: When fighting.

* [[Hannibal Lecture]]: To Shiki regarding {{spoiler|her jealousy issues}}.

* [[Monochromatic Eyes]]

* [[Mr. Exposition]]: [[Alternative Character Interpretation|Only in Another Day]].

* [[Sinister Shades]]

* [[Younger Than They Look]]: He is apparently ''20 years old.''

 

[[File:sho-minamimoto1.jpg|frame|"This is my Game. And I only allow two things. Flawless calculations... and beauty!"]]

 

 

* [[Badass Bookworm]]: The dude trash talks people with math and kicks everyone's asses for lolz.

* [[Bishonen Line]]: {{spoiler|Let's just say that Minamimoto is even ''more'' good looking as a [[Hopeless Boss Fight|Taboo.]]}}

* [[Red Right Hand|Black Right Hand]]: {{spoiler|Both of them, once he goes Taboo.}}

* [[Bunny Ears Lawyer]]

* [[Evil Genius]]

* [[Eyes of Gold]]

* [[Facial Markings]]: His "whiskers".

* [[Flunky Boss]]: Sends out several Taboo Noise before attacking directly, and typically has a few out most of the time, usually attacking the partner on the other screen.

* [[Insufferable Genius]]: He puts the "pomp" in "psychopomp". And the "psycho", too, for that matter.

* {{spoiler|[[Karmic Death]]}}: {{spoiler|On the last day of the game, he gets "crunched" and chucked under a junk sculpture rather like the ones he was so fond of making.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Never Found the Body]]}}: {{spoiler|A bizarre [[Inverted Trope|inversion]]. Whenever somebody dies in the UG, [[No Body Left Behind|their body fades away and vanishes]]. However, while Minamimoto is found lying under one of his own garbage mounds, his body is perfectly intact. [[Sequel Hook|So that means...]]}}

* [[Nice Hat]]: Also known as Pi-Face's Cap, its slick, [[A Worldwide Punomenon|calculated]] style can turn you into a zetta math whiz (probably). Funny enough, he loses it {{spoiler|as a Taboo}}.

* [[Slogan Yelling Megaphone Guy]]: Sort of. He tends to yell his catchphrases through a megaphone. {{spoiler|Until he swaps it for Def Märch's microphone.}}

* [[The Starscream]]: To {{spoiler|Joshua}}, who actually says he enjoys having such a loose cannon around.

=== Mitsuki Konishi ===

[[File:mitsuki-konishi1.jpg|frame|"You vexatious monkey! You’re right. No analysis could ever plumb the depths of your fatuity."]]

 

The Game Master on the third and final week (Beat's chapter). She first appears to be utterly loyal to Conductor Kitaniji, but is much more interested in climbing the corporate ladder.

* [[The Baroness]]: Very cold and calculating. The other Reapers nickname her the "Iron Maiden" for a reason.

* [[Blondes Are Evil]]

* [[Blue Eyes]]

* [[The Glasses Come Off]]: She takes them off right before getting into fighting mode. It's her ''eyes'' that glint menacingly instead.

* [[Elegant Gothic Lolita]]

* [[Hitomi Nabatame]]

* [[Hot Teacher]]: In Another Day, she's one of Beat's teachers.

* [[Manipulative Bitch]]

* [[Master of Illusion]]: She seems to have the power to bend light, and one of her battle backgrounds [[Amazing Technicolor Battlefield|looks like the game crashed]].

* [[Puzzle Boss]]

* [[Scary Shiny Glasses]]

* [[Zettai Ryouiki]]

 

 

=== Megumi Kitaniji ===

 

The Conductor and direct superior of the Reapers. Because the Composer has long been absent, he has asserted control over the Game, and makes sure that everyone, Player and Reaper alike, play by the book. However, it hasn't stopped him from imposing his own "penalties" on Neku for violating the game's rules.

* {{spoiler|[[Assimilation Plot]]}}: Kitanji's ultimate plan.

* [[Big Bad]]: {{spoiler|Though he had a little help from "above".}}

* [[Cool Shades]]/[[Sinister Shades]]

* [[Dual Boss]]: {{spoiler|A brainwashed Shiki fights alongside him.}}

* [[Gender Blender Name]]: Megumi is a female name.

* [[Headphones Equal Isolation]]: As a foil to Neku's straight use, his are always around his neck. A subtle hint {{spoiler|that his plan involves false unity}}.

* [[Jerkass]]

* [[Loophole Abuse]]: Particularly when he {{spoiler|removes all the other players in an attempt to make Neku unable to win}}.

* [[Scaled Up]]: Anguis Cantus and {{spoiler|[[Sequential Boss|Draco Cantus]]}}.

 

== Other Denizens ==

=== Sanae Hanekoma ===

[[File:250px-Twewy-sanae-hanekoma1.jpg|frame|"Right. Neku. I got it now, Phones!"]]

 

The humble owner of the WildKat coffee shop on the upper-east side of Shibuya. He's also {{spoiler|the Producer of Shibuya and an Angel.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Our Angels Are Different|Angel]]: Revealed in the Secret Reports to be an Angel.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Bonus Boss]]}}

* [[Cool Shades]]

* [[Unreliable Narrator]]: {{spoiler|His secret reports, particularly when he refers to the "Fallen Angel" in the third person as if it were someone besides him.}}

* [[Waistcoat of Style]]

 

=== Sota Honjo and Nao-Nao ===

A pair with uncertain circumstances surrounding their death. Both are genuinely nice people, who tell Neku not to give up hope after what happens to him during the second week. Hinted to be a couple but never explicitly mentioned what their relationship is.

* [[Battle Couple]]

* [[Chekhov's Gunman]]: They're seen in the RG briefly during the first week.

* [[Dark Horse Victory]]: While Neku considers his semifinal Tin Pin Slammer match against Shooter the lynchpin of whether or not the Players are erased that day, Sota ends up winning in the finals. With help.

* [[Kawaiiko]]: Nao-Nao looks a good bit older than the stereotype, but she's a cutesy kogal through and through.

* [[Surfer Dude]]: Sota.

* {{spoiler|[[Stuffed in The Fridge]]}}: Neku doesn't take {{spoiler|their erasure by Minamimoto's Taboo Noise}} very well.

 

=== Eri ===

Eri is Shiki's best friend. Shiki uses a picture of Eri and herself as the wallpaper for her cellphone. {{spoiler|Turns out that Shiki is actually the black-haired girl in the picture and that Eri is the one who normally looks like Shiki looks right now.}} Eri is described as charismatic and popular and she thinks of Shiki as a great friend and seamstress with a keen eye for details.

* {{spoiler|[[Bare Your Midriff]]: Dear god.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Combat Stilettos]]: More like Nice Boots.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Fan Service]]: Dear god, again!}}

* [[The Fashionista]]

* [[Never Got to Say Goodbye]]: The last time the two spoke, they were in an argument after she suggested that Shiki isn't suited to designing.

* {{spoiler|[[Nice Hat]]: The hat she and Shiki wear was desinged by her and sewn by Shiki, just like everything else in her wardrobe. Shiki uses her "incarnation" of it to wear her Pins.}}

* [[Satellite Character]]: Her character is largely based around her relationship with Shiki. She is only ever seen talking with a minor character about Shiki.

* {{spoiler|[[Stripperiffic]]: Set this [[Bare Your Midriff|skirt just an inch lower]] and you have a game rated 16 and above.}}

* {{spoiler|[[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|You Gotta Have Magenta/Rose Hair]]: With a mix of [[Heroes Want Redheads|Red in there]] she's good to go.}}

 

=== Shuto "Shooter" Dan ===

A young NPC who is a major fan of Tin Pin Slammer.

* [[Idiot Hero]]: Only in Another Day.

* [[No Indoor Voice]]

* [[The Rival]]: To Neku and only in [[Mini Game|Tin Pin Slammer]].

 

=== Ken Doi ===

=== Makoto "Mick" Miki ===

Originally a timid and unsuccessful businessman, he quits his job for Gatito (or, at least, a subsidiary of them) and opens up the Shadow Ramen store in the second week to rival the Ramen Don shop. He is also responsible for helping spread around the Red Skull pins, their purpose becoming much clearer by the end of the game.

* [[Acquired Situational Narcissism]]: After becoming a success in Week 2, he sports an entirely new appearance and becomes quite arrogant.

* [[Alliterative Name]]

* [[Mistaken for Gay]]: After opening up {{spoiler|Shadow Ramen}}, where he takes up work, watch what he says (and his facial expressions!) when you increase his Friendship Gauge.

** Well... he mistakes Neku for a gay mistaking ''him'' for gay, anyway.

=== 777 (Triple 7) ===

Leader of the band [[Heavy Metal Umlaut|Def Märch]], which also includes fellow Reapers B.J. and Tenho.

* [[Face of the Band]]: [[Invoked]] 777. BJ seems to resent this.

* [[Informed Ability]]: Apparently his music is great... but you never get to hear it.

* [[Mauve Shirt]]

* [[Punch Clock Villain]]: Very much so, as noted above he seems to view reaping as a side job to his band.

* [[Street Musician]]: Def Märch is an indie band, and all three members got their start by singing on the streets.

 

=== Eiji Oji ===

A big-time celebrity and "Prince of Ennui" in Shibuya's RG whose blog, "F Everything", gets 100,000 hits per day.

* [[Bandwagon Technique]]: Whenever he discovers something he likes, he "F's it", and that thing instantly becomes super-popular among his readers.

* [[Bishounen]]

* [[Blond Guys Are Evil]]: Subverted. He ends up being a down to earth guy who just wants some good ramen.

The backstage tech of the Def Märch. He is unusually forgetful.

* [[Forgetful Jones]]: He forgets the fuse needed to light up the stage on Day 3 of Week 1.

* [[The Resenter]]: Implied to resent 777 a little for stealing the spotlight all the time.

* [[The Slacker]]

 

=== Ai and Mina ===

A pair of schoolgirls who are good friends. Lately, their friendship has been put under some strain when Ai suspects Mina is trying to steal her crush, Makoto, away from her, although it all gets cleared up with Neku and Shiki's help.

* [[Clingy Jealous Girl]]: Ai, to an extent. However, it turns out she does appreciate her friendship with Mina deeply.

* [[Fan Girl]]: Mina in Another Day.

* [[Friendship Moment]]: Mina buys some tickets to a Tin Pin Slammer event to give to Ai so she can go out with Makoto. Unfortunately, Ai misunderstands her intentions at first, but apologizes as soon as she finds out.

* [[Nice Girl]]: Mina.

* [[Not What It Looks Like]]: Mina and Makoto really weren't doing anything together, apart from chatting, but Ai immediately starts to assume the worst when she catches them talking to each other.

* [[Recurring Extra]]: Mina, mostly.

* [[Those Two Girls]]: Played entirely straight.
