    Eto Rangers 
Twelve characters chosen to become protectors of Mugen and, by extension, all of the Novel Worlds.

Bakumaru

Voiced By: Chika Sakamoto
The immature but courageous mouse leader of the Eto Rangers.
  • Bratty Half-Pint: He's very loud and often immature. He's also the shortest next to Urii.
  • Heroes Prefer Swords: He's given a laser sword in the second episode, and uses it as his main weapon for the rest of the series.
  • Heroic BSoD: When Nyanma's Jyarei Elite come into play, all four are revealed to be cats like her. The Eto Rangers' first encounter against one left Bakumaru frozen due to his instinctual fear of cats. Seeing two at once, later on, savagely enforces the BSOD to the point where he is unable to do anything. It took a trial in the Illusion Room of Princess Aura's castle, and help from feline friend Gaou, to overcome this fear for the rest of the series.
  • Eastern Zodiac: Represents the Rat.
  • Freudian Excuse: His fear of cats stem from constant bullying from a cat named Chocolat in the past.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Despite being kind of hot-headed and in your face, he's really a compassionate guy underneath. And in his defense most of his worst moments are more him being Innocently Insensitive than anything else.
  • Laser Blade: Primary weapon after the end of the second episode, as it was unaffected by the Novel World's restoration.
  • The Leader: Placed first in a race to decide the twelve Eto Rangers
  • Nice Mice: Although "nice" may be stretching it a bit, he does have a good heart.
  • Official Couple: With Cream.
  • Rousing Speech: Bakumaru's pretty good at loudly reminding his team about their mission when they're experiencing despair. At one point, he had a tear-jerker story called "Shanghai Cabbage" for this purpose, but after a stressful mission, he forgotten how it went, much to Souffle's frustration.
  • Trauma Button: Chocolat's bullying of Bakumaru was so bad, the mere sight of any feline leaves him frozen with fear. Goah is the sole exception, and he would later overcome his fear.
  • Took a Level in Badass: Bakumaru later gets his own Finishing Move and manages to overcome his fear of cats.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: He acts like a real asshole in the Puss In Boots episode where he throws a tantrum over going to a novel world with a cat in it. He does, however, have a good Freudian Excuse for acting that way.
  • Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: As a mouse, he has an instinctive fear of virtually all felines, thanks to Chocolat's frequent bullying before the series began. Only Gaou, a tiger, is an exception to this. He overcomes this fear midway through the series from a trial.

Hols

Voiced By: Toshiyuki Morikawa
A big ox who is rather dopey, though he carries a potent secret ability.
  • The Big Guy: The muscle of the Eto Rangers along with Gaoh, Drago, and Pakaracchi.
  • Big Guy Fatality Syndrome: Hols is one of the first two Etorangers to be killed.
  • Bull Seeing Red: Hols' main contribution to the team is his ability to change into a larger, stronger, four-legged bull if he sees red.
  • Butt-Monkey: One of the more frequent receivers of slapstick and is perhaps the least respected member of the team.
  • Eastern Zodiac: Represents the Ox.
  • Fat Comic Relief: Usually, he's played more for laughs than for drama and is often a source of comedy.
  • Flat Character: The least developed and most Out of Focus Eto Ranger, with all his screentime only amounting to his transformation upon seeing the color red and being in drag twice.
  • Gender Bender: He has cross-dressed twice in the series, though not intentionally. He even sported a pair or breasts along with this.
  • Shoo Out the Clowns: As stated before, he a big source of comic relief and is one of the first of the rangers to die.
  • Vice President Who?: He is officially the second highest ranking member of the Eto Rangers but you wouldn'y guess that due to his lack of assertiveness.

Gaou

Voiced By: Mitsuaki Hoshino
A noble hearted and strong tiger who acts as Bakumaru's second-in-command.
  • Berserk Button: Don't threaten innocent young girls in front of him. Some enemy ninjas who kidnapped one in episode 17 found out the hard way.
  • Big Brother Mentor: Is usually the one who talks some sense into the other Eto Rangers. He also personally trained Bakumaru to overcome his fear of cats.
  • The Big Guy: The muscle of the Eto Rangers along with Hols, Drago, and Pakaracchi.
  • Cool Shades: It's his Transformation Trinket into his tiger mode.
  • Crack Defeat: He actually defeated Nyanma in combat and nearly finishes her off, but he got distracted by his attachment to her in the last minute long enough for her to deliver her Finishing Move that leads to his (and Tart's) Disney Death.
  • Eastern Zodiac: Represents the Tiger.
  • Gentle Giant: He's large and muscular but he's easily the most gentle tiger you'll see in an anime. He especially has a soft spot with kids.
  • Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: The Huge Guy to Chocolat's Tiny Girl when they were a couple.
  • Large and in Charge: One of the Eto Rangers' literal "Big 4" as well as he de-facto second in command.
  • Number Two: While he is designated as "Number 3", Gaoh is the one who functions as Bakumaru's de-facto second in command for much of the series more than Hols does.
  • The Only One Allowed to Defeat You: During the final episodes, he attempts to finish off Nyanma, even after learning the she is his old friend Chocolat, as she (and by extension, one of her Elite) had already killed off half of his team. He is distracted by an illusion she used, long enough for her to deliver a critical blow against him.
  • Panthera Awesome: A tiger to be exact.
  • Transformation Trinket: His sunglasses allow him to transform into a larger, stronger, feral tiger.

Cream

Voiced By: Kyoko Hikami

  • Official Couple: With Bakumaru.
  • Righteous Rabbit: A literal rabbit with a heart of gold. Often the voice of reason.
  • Squishy Wizard: Cream mainly contributes using her magic. In physical combat, she's only ever useful through sneak attacks and is visibly afraid when having to engage in direct combat.
  • Tomboy and Girly Girl: She and Souffle are girly girls in comparison to the more tomboyish Tart.
  • Transformation Trinket: She owns a magical carrot-shaped staff that lets her magically change into different disguises.

Drago

Voiced By: Jin Yamanoi
A serious minded dragon who is by far the most mature member of the group.

Nyorori

Voiced By: Rokurō Naya
An eccentric little snake who is a great inventor.
  • Defiant to the End: When Nyanma had him and a few of his friends trapped to be killed, Nyorori gives her "The Reason You Suck" Speech which prompts her to execute him first before going through with her planned massacre.
  • Eastern Zodiac: Represents the Snake.
  • Endearingly Dorky: He's a nerdy goofball snake with glasses and a habit of saying his own name after every sentence so of course he's this.
  • Floating Limbs: Being a snake, he has no arms, but gloves that can work as hands.
  • Gadgeteer Genius: His desire to fly has him build special machines.
  • Non-Action Guy: He's the least physically capable member of the Eto Rangers.

  • Smug Snake: A rare benevolent version. He can be prone to bragging.
  • Verbal Tic: He ends every sentences with saying his name.

Pakaracchi

Voiced By: Takashi Nagasako
A boisterous horse with a love of youth.
  • Battle Boomerang: In combat, Pakaracchi can throw horseshoes like boomerangs.
  • Big Fun: More muscle than fat but he still qualifies.
  • The Big Guy: The muscle of the Eto Rangers along with Hols, Gaoh, and Drago.
  • Bishie Sparkle: Happens in Imagine Spots everytime he wants to impress women.
  • Boisterous Bruiser: He's almost always in a cheerful mood and is easily one of the more muscular rangers, often going on about youth a lot.
  • Chivalrous Pervert: While generally acts as a gentleman, Pakaracchi is not above smirking if a Panty Shot is on his view.
  • Died in Your Arms Tonight: He passes away while Urii is thanking him for saving his life from Nyanma.
  • Eastern Zodiac: Represents the Horse.
  • Love Freak: He's very fond of talking about how great youth is. Most of his dialogue is guaranteed to include the word "youth" in it.
  • Nice Guy: Very jovial and friendly to just about everyone. If you mess with his friends, however...
  • Official Couple: After seeing Bakamaru get together with Cream, Pochiro get together with Tart, and the lingering love between Gaoh and Chocolat, he tries to confess his love to Souffle to pull this off. Sadly for him it gets subverted, since Souffle misses his love confession due to wondering about Bakamaru's Shanghai cabbage fairy tale.
  • Verbal Tic: Expect something about "Youth" being added to his dialogues.

Souffle

Voiced By: Yuko Miyamura
A cute sheep with a gentle heart.
  • Action Survivor: She's not really much of a fighter but is not afraid to get into action if the situation calls for it.

  • Beware the Nice Ones: There are times when even someone as sweet as Souffle gets mad, but those are far and few in between.
  • Eastern Zodiac: Represents the Ram.
  • Hidden Depths: Souffle is pretty good with technology, as shown by her "radar compact", and she develops good leadership skills in episode 24.
  • Nice Girl: Easily one of the purest and kindest characters in the series.
  • Reluctant Fanservice Girl: A victim of this for just a few seconds in episode 3.
  • Rose-Haired Sweetie: Has bright pink hair.
  • Supreme Chef: In episode 16, Bakumaru mentions that Souffle's cakes are so good that he wouldn't miss them for the world.
  • Sweet Sheep: Rarely ever fights, and is very friendly and innocent. Plus, she's an actual sheep.
  • Team Chef: The one usually in-charge on making the Eto Rangers' meal. It is shown at one point that she's not very skilled with knives, leaving Tart for the job.
  • The Load: Lampshaded by herself in episode 24, as she feels she does not contribute enough to the team, she spends the rest of the episode in an attempt to defy this during a mission that included her, with surprisingly good results.
  • Thinks Like a Romance Novel: It actually comes in handy at times.
  • Tomboy and Girly Girl: She and Cream are girly girls in comparison to the more tomboyish Tart.

  • Died in Your Arms Tonight: He dies as Gaoh is comforting him.
  • Eastern Zodiac: Represents the Monkey.
  • Everyone Has Standards: Even Monk has a line drawn when it comes to pranks. He once used Princess Aura's voice, one of great authority, for a water bucket prank. However, when he was accused by Pochiro of using this same method to deceive Chocolat into disqualification, during the race to choose the next Eto Rangers, he angrily says that not even he would stoop that low.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He plays pranks a lot and can tick people off, but he isn't deliberately mean.
  • Monkey King Lite: In terms of personality and his clothing, he bares more than a passing resemblance to the Trope namer. He even takes the role in a mission based on that story's world.
  • The Prankster: Loves to pull off pranks on both friend and foe.
  • Shoo Out the Clowns: He's the resident prankster of the series. When Nyanma kills him off, all remaining comedic scenes ceased until the epilogue which happened shortly after his resurrection.
  • Silly Simian: He's a mischievous fun-seeking monkey.
  • Sitcom Arch-Nemesis: He and Pochiro spend most of their screentime bickering and pissing each other off. While not as frequent, he and Bakumaru also dip into this.

Tart

A curvy chicken girl with a fiery temper who gains the ability to turn into a human.
  • Action Girl: The most proficient female fighter in the Eto Rangers.

  • Official Couple: At the very end she becomes this with Pochiro.
  • Robot Buddy: Tart has a robotic chick that could serve as her personal drone.
  • Ship Tease: With Pochiro, especially in the last episode.
  • Team Mom: Despite being a gruff tomboy, Tart can very quickly soften up and be remarkably loving to both her teammates and to others.
  • Tomboy and Girly Girl: In comparison to girly girls Cream and Souffle, Tart is significantly more tomboyish.

Pochiro

Voiced By: Toshiyuki Morikawa
A smug samurai dog who is incredibly clumsy, though also one of the best fighters on the team.
  • Badass Adorable: A kooky comedian guy who will wreck you will his Bone Nyoibo.
  • Berserk Button: He absolutely hates being pranked, being the very first ranger to physically lash out at Monk in one episode where all the rangers were pranked.

  • Eastern Zodiac: Represents the Dog.

Urii

A timid boar who is the youngest member of the team.
  • Action Survivor: Urii is not combat proficient, but his powerful Wave-Motion Gun below sometimes gets him dragged into battles by his teammates to bail themselves out of trouble.
  • The Baby of the Bunch: Urii is the youngest member of the Etorangers.
  • Berserker Tears: Urii's main contribution to the team is his ability to fire a huge laser out of the crystal on his chest when he cries.

    Allies 

Princess Aura

Voiced By: Maria Kawamura

A benevolent ruler of Mugen whom the Eto Rangers answer to.


  • Big Good: Aura gave the Eto Rangers their task of restoring the Novel Worlds to normal, and all of the Etorangers greatly look up to her.
  • Cast from Stamina: Aura has used her magic to drive away the powerful Nyanma twice in the series. She has also assisted the Eto Rangers, in more ways than one. Unfortunately said magic tends to drain her energy and confine her to bed.
  • Ethereal White Dress: She's wearing a white gown and is a powerful mage.
  • Ms. Exposition: Explains the purpose of the Novel Worls and the role of the Eto Rangers.
  • Nice Girl: She's a kind person, and when Nyanma personally attacks her at one point, Aura is regretful of Nyanma going down the wrong path, as opposed to being afraid of Nyanma personally.
  • Princesses Rule: Aura is known as "Princess Aura" and not as "Queen Aura", despite being the sole ruler of the country of Mugen. However, this may be justified as Aura herself answers to the Great God Goal.

Kirinda/Lydia

Voiced By: Rokurō Naya

A sentient vessel that carries the Eto Rangers throughout the Novel Worlds.


  • Beware the Silly Ones: As is shown in almost every episode, Kirinda may be a incredibly goofy but he is a force to be reckoned with when he is ready to purify a world.
  • Bunny-Ears Lawyer: It's thanks to him the rangers can get from world to world and is the main reason they can purify the worlds... He is also a very sarcastic and eccentric character who frequently cracks jokes.
  • Died in Your Arms Tonight: Lydia dies in Princess Aura's arms before being reincarnated as Kirinda.
  • Finishing Move: Is always needed to be summoned to finish off a Jyarei monster. Started off as a wave, then upgraded to a lightning attack.
Kirinda: JYUKEN!
  • Gender-Blender Name: His original name, Lydia, is commonly a feminine name.
  • Golden Super Mode: His Mid-Season Upgrade comes with turning his entire body gold before executing his Finishing Move.
  • Living Ship: A sentient vessel that carries the Eto Rangers throughout the Novel Worlds. Was revealed to have been reincarnated from a previous life. Was revived and turned back to normal in the final episode.
  • Mid-Season Upgrade: He was nearly destroyed by two of Nyanma's Jyarei Elite. The team found a special item that not only restored him, but gave him a major power boost needed to destroy said Elite.
  • Mr. Exposition: Gives a brief description of a story the Novel World the Eto Rangers are going to is based on, but they occasionally hijack this from him. He also explains why Jyarei Monsters don't impersonate main characters easily.
  • Reincarnation: Kirinda was later revealed to be a news reporter named Lydia, reborn as the Eto Rangers' vessel by Aura, after being killed by Nyanma.
  • Troll: Many of his jokes are at the expense of the rangers.

    Villains 

Nyanma/Chocolat

Voiced By: Yoko Soumi

The leader of the Jyarei Monsters. She holds a grudge against Princess Aura.


  • The Bully: As Chocolat, she chased Bakumaru around a lot — which give Bakumaru his fears of cats.
  • Demoted to Dragon: Starts as the Big Bad who commands the Jyarei Monsters to corrupt the Novel Worlds and destroy the Novel Pole. It's soon revealed that Nynama takes orders from Bagi.
  • The Dragon: Nyanma is this to Bagi, though at first she seems like the Big Bad for most of the series.
  • Et Tu, Brute?: The reason for her hatred towards Aura, as she looks up to her so much. Bagi masqueraded as Aura.
  • Evil Former Friend: As Chocolat she was close friends with half of the Eto Rangers, Gaoh in particular.
  • Evil Redhead: She has scarlet hair and is the main antagonist for most of the series. She was also a bully prior to that as Chocolat.
  • Final Boss: She's the main antagonist for much of the series and most of the Final Battle is spent fighting her.
  • Freudian Excuse: As Chocolat, she mistakenly thought Princess Aura had appeared to her in a vision and told her to start the "Etoranger qualification race" early, causing her to be disqualified by unintentionally cheating. Chocolat thought that Aura had deliberately set her up to be humiliated, so she accepted a deal with Bagi that turned her into Nyanma for the sake of getting her revenge on Aura. Ironically, it was Bagi herself who was behind the fake vision that caused the misunderstanding to begin with.
  • Hero Killer: She personally kills six of the nine fallen Eto Rangers, namely; Nyorori, Souffle, Pakaracchi, Pochiro, Monk, and Gaoh.
  • Huge Guy, Tiny Girl: The Tiny Girl to Gaoh's Huge Guy when they were a couple and before her Plot-Relevant Age-Up.
  • Invincible Villain: Bakumaru barely stands a chance against her in a one-on-one fight. He and the rest of the Eto Rangers would have been wiped out if not for assistance from Princess Aura and Jyuken.
  • It's Personal with the Dragon: Bagi is the true Big Bad who spends most of the story as the Greater-Scope Villain. However, Nyanma's personal history with Princess Aura and the Eto Rangers serves as the driving force of the entire series.
  • Ms. Fanservice: Nyanma is a Sexy Cat Person wearing a very Stripperiffic outfit.
  • Plot-Relevant Age-Up: Chocolat was originally a teen girl but bets transformed into a full-grown woman as Nyanma.
  • Red and Black and Evil All Over: She's clad mostly in red and black and is the series' most prominent villain.
  • The Reveal: The leader of the Jyarei Monsters that has been menacing the Novel Worlds is none other than Gaoh's old friend Chocolat, who wanted to be an Etoranger but was disqualified from the qualification race, mistakenly believing that Princess Aura was responsible.
  • Sexy Cat Person: Her Stripperiffic attire showcases her shapely body. It's subverted as Chocolat as she is both modestly dressed and endowed.
  • Walking Spoiler: The blue ring serves as this, as Chocolat wears it like a collar while Nyanma wears it like a bracelets. While it would require a rewatch of the flashback mid-series, Gaoh's reaction all but confirms it before Aura reveals the truth.
  • White Hair, Black Heart: After absorbing Jyuuken, her hair transforms into ash white.

Bagi

Voiced By: Ikuko Tani

The true mastermind of the Jyarei Monsters and Nyanma's superior.


  • Big Bad: Revealed and Introduced as this in episode 24, as Nyanma is seen kneeling to her.
  • Eye Scream: Bakumaru slashes her right eye during the Final Battle. While he succeeded in blinding her, it did nothing to slow her down.
  • Greater-Scope Villain: Wasn't introduced until 2/3 of the story and doesn't become a direct threat to the Eto rangers until the last few episodes.
  • Laser-Guided Karma: In the end, she is defeated when Nyanma decides to turn against her and help the Eto Rangers, after Nyanma learned that Bagi was just using her and was responsible for her disqualification from Princess Aura's race.
  • Manipulative Bitch: She impersonated Princess Aura and tricked Chocolat into breaking the rules of the race to determine the next Eto Rangers. She then made her believe that Aura was the one who tricked her out of jealousy before transforming her into Nyanma and used her and the Jyarei Monsters to take over Mugen by destroying the Novel Worlds.
  • True Final Boss: The Eto Rangers have been mainly fighting Nyanma throughout the series, with Bagi being dismissed merely as an entity she worships. Then after the remaining Eto Rangers defeat Nyanma towards the end of the penultimate episode, Bagi shows up in the closing minutes and her fight with Bakumaru takes much of the Grand Finale.

    The Jyraei Elite Four 
A group of four created from Nyanma's very being. The most powerful Jyarei Monsters next to her.

In General

  • Elite Four: Just as powerful as Nyanma. Often takes more than one Eto Ranger to defeat one of them.
  • Gender-Equal Ensemble: Gen'en and Jyuken are women, while Gousen and Rouran are men.
  • Hive Mind: They are able communicate in thought and share Nyanma's memories. Goah discovered Jyuken and Nyanma's connection during Jyuken's capture. Nyanma exploited this on Jyuken to get the drop on the Eto Rangers.
  • Multi-Gendered Split Personalities: The four consist of two males and two females, though Nyanma is female herself. They also have their own behaviors.
  • Quirky Miniboss Squad: Their personalities are more developed than the average Jyarei Monster. Unlike them, they share the same feline features as Nyanma.
  • Tulpa: Created from Nyanma person to help with the attack on the Novel Worlds.

Gen'en Of Cruelty

Voiced By: Yoshiko Kamei

  • Ace Pilot: Two of her three active episodes consist of piloting mechas. One of them a dark version of Kirinda.

Gousen The Noble

Voiced By: Mitsuaki Hoshino

Jyuken The Gatekeeper

Voiced By: Kyoko Hikami

Rouran The Executioner

Voiced By: Takashi Nagasako

  • The Ace: The most skillful and proficient of the Jyarei Four.
  • Hero Killer: He's a formidable opponent even against all Eto Rangers and he manages to indirectly kill Hols and Drago in his defeat.
  • Master Swordsman: Mainly uses his sword for fighting, and can overpower other sword users like Bakumaru and Pochiro.
  • No-Sell: Easily countered Bakumaru's Finishing Move during their rematch.
  • One-Man Army: During a rematch in a Dark Novel World took all of the Eto Rangers to defeat just him, and even that was a challenge.
  • Taking You with Me: Destroyed an entire Dark Novel World before he died to get the Eto Rangers. He managed to kill two.

    Jyarei Monsters (Spoilers Abound!) 
You... Who are you!?
—The usual reaction after being exposed.
The Monster of the Week, they are evil monsters sent to Novel World, corrupting the story into something unrecognizable. If left for too long, the world collapses, and too many worlds lost result in the destruction of Mugen. It's up to the Eto Rangers to stop them.

Jyarei Monsters then disguise themselves to stay out of sight, corrupting the story further, but they can be revealed when shined by a Magic Mirror. As the identity of individual Jyarei Monsters are spoilers, beware!


  • Beneath Notice: A recurring theme amongst all of them is that they usually like to play the roles of smaller or Original Generation characters as to subtly influence and corrupt the world further. They are unable to take over the main characters as they are protected by the Great God Goal, but they can impersonate them if taken out of the equation. Sometimes, they are out of place from the rest of the environment, making them easier to spot. Otherwise, they can give themselves away from suspicious behaviors.
  • Corrupted Character Copy: It was revealed that they were part of the Novel Pole belonging to the first Mugen, which fell long ago. The Eto Rangers fought evil versions of characters from Urashima Taro and The Wizard of Oz during the final episodes.
  • The Corrupter: Their main goal in a Novel World is to corrupt them to the point of collapse.
  • Mid-Season Upgrade: From Episode 24 onwards, they now possess cybernetic implants and some of them seem to be fully robotic.
  • Reality Warper: Can change a Novel World to something different.
  • Rent-a-Zilla: Their true form can be as tall as a building.
  • We Cannot Go On Without You: Can be invoked or exploted if they can kill any of the main characters of a story.
