Author’s note:
This list was created, mainly to get a better grasp on the characters.

●Alim Nariwei (Joujou Ayumu)
-The main character of this story.
-While going to school, a flowerpot falling from a mansion hits his head, killing him.
-Right after that, he is sent to Anazumu by the power of “Lord Jizou”.
-Largely prefers to play RPGs on his home console, and exhibits unusual mental strength, when it comes to repeatedly going through the same places and defeating monsters. His playstyle is of the “level up and beat them with overwhelming power” type.
-Consequently, he has the patience for a steady playstyle, but isn’t very skilled. Incidentally, he doesn’t play any online games. Due to that, he doesn’t have a good grasp on his skills.
-Further, he is stingy about money. Since being sent to Anazumu, he only spares no expense when it is for Mika’s sake.
-Used to be a 16-year-old¹ second year high-schooler. Since coming to Anazumu, he is 12 years old.
-Is primarily male, but with the power of a skill, he habitually turns into a beautiful girl with short red hair and yellow eyes, who turns everyone’s heads.²　
-When he transforms into a girl, he is being pampered by the people around him, and even bathing together with Mika and others is no problem, which makes it quite favorable from his perspective, so he generally stays as a girl.
-Even if he turns into a girl, his mind is still that of a boy. That also becomes apparent in this story.³　
-His nickname is “Heavenly Sword Girl”.
-His main skills are “Item Master” and “Dark Matter Creation”.

●Mika Magarigi (Magarigi Mika)
-Ayumu’s childhood friend.
-The heroine of this story.

-Right after that, she is sent to Anazumu, reunites with Ayumu thanks to Lahand, and confesses her own feelings during that reunion.
-Ayumu and Mika are currently in love with each other. There appear to be no indications of them ever breaking up.
-Without noticing it herself or expressing it, she is madly in love with Ayumu. Or rather, after Ayumu’s death, her love for him grew even more extreme.

TL notes:
I was expecting mostly a retread of what we know already, but there were some interesting new things in there. Also, the detailed characterization of Shuu, Kanata and Sakura makes it seem very likely, that they will appear in the story again.

1. It sometimes says “17 years” in the story. Not sure which is correct in the end.
2. The original words it as, “if there are 100 people, 100 of them will turn their head”.
3. So, this is pretty much Word of God for “No, his personality doesn’t change a bit, whether he’s a boy or a girl”.
4. In the original, his last name is 火野 (Hino). Thanks to the magic of checking future chapter and the fact that this name has no other readings, I’m pretty sure that this is correct.
5. In the original, the name is sometimes written as テュール (“tuuru”) and more often as ティール (“tiiru”), so “Tiel” would likely be more correct, but at this point I really don’t want to change the name.
6. Maybe that’s to prevent abuse of power. Having a king who can expose anyone’s secrets just by looking at them sounds like a recipe for oppression.
   Though it does contradict what the kings says in chapter 144.
7. This made me realize that he probably doesn’t use a costume and instead just uses “Beast Master” to transform into the appearance.
8. It says “Slave Liberation Group” in the original, but I decided to stick to the one from chapter 157 for consistency’s sake.
9. It says “Lahand” here in the original. I guess it’s supposed to be Gabaina, since they’re pretty close in the story.
10. The original is 酔拳 and it’s a real fighting style that imitates the movements of a drunk person.
11. The original is 魔族 (“magic/evil race”), which is the typical word for humanoid, not necessarily evil, demons in fiction. The word is almost never used in this series (I think it’s less than 10 times in more than 1000 chapters), so I used this translation.
12. Not 100% sure about the last part here. This is mainly a guess based on what happens in chapter 149.
13. The original is ファウスト・ハンス (“fausuto hansu”). Since he is clearly based on Johann Faust, I moved the “Hans” to the front.
14. The original is ラブロングサーカス団 (“rabu rongu sakaasu group”).
