Toilet Buddy Hanako

Mei's main ability is the materialization of drawings. Everything she depicts on the canvas becomes absolute reality. She is capable of: Appearance: Small, pink creatures resembling rabbits with long ears and no distinct paws. They can have one or two eyes. Anatomy: They have an elastic body. They are capable of stretching greatly and use their ears as hands to carry objects. Color: They are mostly a soft pink, but rare black specimens have also been found. Sweet Tooth: Mokkes are obsessed with candy. The best way to appease these creatures or avoid their pranks is to give them a lollipop. Thievishness: They tend to steal anything that isn't nailed down, which is why small personal belongings often go missing at school. Peacefulness: They are harmless and cowardly, but they easily make contact with the main characters, Hanako and Nene Yashiro.

In life, Mei was an incredibly talented student who lived to draw. Sadly, she fell gravely ill and died before graduating from high school. Before her death, false rumors began to circulate: supposedly, her parents forbade her from drawing, prompting her to commit suicide. From these dark rumors and other people's speculations, her ghost was born. The ghostly Mei herself knows the truth and sincerely hates these rumors. She considers herself merely a "fake," created to protect the good name of the real Mei. Mei appears as a friendly schoolgirl with round glasses and two long pigtails. Over her uniform, she always wears a paint-stained artist's apron, and often holds a giant palette knife or brush. At first glance, she appears cheerful and eccentric, but behind this lies a sharp tongue, pragmatism, and a deep inner sadness. Mei's greatest ability is the materialization of her drawings. Everything she depicts on canvas becomes absolute reality. She is capable of:

Natsuhiko is a tall, attractive young man with a well-built physique. He has tousled, bright red hair and gray eyes. He usually wears the standard male academy uniform, adding a touch of casualness to his look. Natsuhiko is frivolous, loud, carefree, and extremely self-confident. He is easily duped, and his intelligence is often the subject of ridicule by Sakura. Despite his somewhat silly demeanor, in times of danger he can display selfishness and cunning when it benefits his faction. Natsuhiko is deeply and unrequitedly in love with Sakura. He affectionately calls her "My Lady" and is willing to carry out any of her requests. Sakura herself treats him with obvious coldness, often ignoring him, being cruel, or openly calling him annoying. Natsuhiko, however, perceives her rudeness as a peculiar expression of love. Despite the constant teasing, they work as a well-oiled duo. Unlike Sakura, Natsuhiko was originally a normal, living person with no mystical contracts. However, he is able to see ghosts perfectly well. Natsuhiko does all the "dirty" physical work for the broadcasting club: luring people into traps (as he did with Nene Yashiro), gathering information, and assisting Tsukasa in his crazy plans. His blind devotion to Sakura regularly gets him into life-threatening trouble.

Sakura has a refined and attractive appearance. She has short hair of an unusual greenish (aquamarine) shade, with two thin strands falling below her shoulders. She has expressive brown (violet in the anime) eyes. She wears a modified school uniform: a stylish long-sleeved sailor dress, accessorized with red gemstones and hairpins. Sakura is distinguished by her composure, calm, and detachment. She almost never displays strong emotions, maintaining a stony expression in any situation. Sakura is highly intelligent, calculating, and skilled at manipulating people to achieve her goals. Despite an aura of mystery and slight cruelty, she is capable of showing politeness. Sakura has a warm relationship with the main character, Nene Yashiro, and has even expressed a desire to befriend her. Sakura is connected to the supernatural world through a contract with Tsukasa Yugi (Hanako's younger twin brother). She made this pact to fulfill her wish. Because of the contract, Sakura is obligated to obey Tsukasa, though his hyperactive and violent behavior frankly irritates her. Along with her devoted (and unrequitedly in love) assistant, Natsuhiko Hyuga, she runs the school's radio broadcast. Her main task is to alter existing urban legends and spread new, distorted rumors about ghosts. This upsets the balance between the worlds of the living and the dead, causing the school's mysteries to become aggressive and dangerous. Sakura acts as the main liaison in the antagonist group, coordinating actions against Hanako and his friends.

He has the appearance of a typical, reliable, and honors student. Guardian Appearance: In his spirit form, his attire changes to a traditional kimono, his face is hidden by a mask, and he holds a large pocket watch. Main Goal: A mad, absolute love for his childhood friend, also named Aoi Akane. He has confessed to her thousands of times and is willing to make any sacrifice for her safety.

Appearance: A cute, petite girl with short purple (indigo) hair and purple eyes. She usually wears her hair in two neat, round loops on the sides and two long strands down her chest. She wears the standard school uniform. Personality: Kind, cheerful, and an excellent student. She loves gardening and the school rumors about ghosts that Nene constantly recounts. Half the boys in school secretly or openly sigh over her. Hidden side: Behind her perfect girl facade, Aoi harbors deep insecurity. She believes that people only love her ideal image, not her, which causes her to secretly despise others and consider herself "empty." Connection to the supernatural: Aoi belongs to the ancient Akane clan and is a kannagi (a maiden priestess whose blood possesses immense power). This is why all the rumors she tells Nene strangely come true. She later becomes a key figure in the plot when the Sixth School Mystery kidnaps her to be sacrificed to stabilize the boundary between the world of the living and the dead.

She wears an antique crest with a scarlet camellia, to which is attached a magical seal that restrains her rage. Human Form: A stately aristocrat in a multi-layered emerald silk kimono. Her long blonde hair is pinned up, and her cold gaze betrays the proud and fiery nature of a true tsundere. Backstory and Tragedy: Many centuries ago, Yako was a wild spirit until she was tamed by the noble knight-scholar Misaki. He taught her literacy and human magic, and the fox fell deeply in love with him. However, during the siege of the castle, Misaki tragically died on the steps of the main tower. Driven mad by grief, Yako cursed this place. Legend and Magic: Any traveler who steps on the fourth step of the enchanted staircase is drawn into its illusory dimension. There, Yako spent centuries attempting to "stitch" a new master from the body parts of lost warriors. In battle, she uses animated wooden golems and her main weapon—giant forged scissors, capable of cutting through knightly armor and the very fabric of space. Role in the party: After being defeated by the wandering mage Hanako, Yako loses her powers and transforms into a small fox familiar. She reluctantly joins the heroes as a grumpy but devoted expert in ancient curses and alchemy.

His secret is called the "Night Stacks." It's a hidden section of the library where books detailing the past and future of all the students are kept. The white books are for the living, the black books are for the dead. The futures in them cannot be changed, but Tsuchigomori admits that one person was able to do just that. In the past (in 1969), Tsuchigomori was the teacher of the living Hanako (Yugi Amane). He was the only one who tried to help the boy when he came home bruised. Before his death, Amane gave him his greatest secret—a "moonstone," which eventually became Tsuchigomori's yorishiro (source of power).

He possesses immense otherworldly power and grants the wishes of supernatural beings (while Hanako grants the wishes of the living).
