Mascots
Kuma
Voiced by: Chihiro Suzuki
Kuma is the manager of SoLaMi SMILE and is closest to Mirei, who found him back when she was first starting in PriPara. He has a short temper despite his cute appearance and can be selfish at times, but he genuinely means well and is kind when it counts. In Idol Time PriPara, he has lost his job as a Manager and now works as a delivery person.
- Amazon Chaser: He falls in love with Love Tochiotome's idol form, who remains as strong and tall as her normal self, but with much longer hair and feminine clothing.
- Casanova Wannabe: His way of recruiting idols includes seducing them, although most girls find it confusing or creepy.
- Cool Shades: Sometimes wears them.
- Drill Sergeant Nasty
- A Glass of Chianti: A non-villainous example. He can be seen holding his glass of green juice, which its bottle looks suspiciously like a wine bottle, quite often.
- It's All About Me: Subverted. While he does have the same ambition of becoming the best idol manager like Usagi, he doesn't do it for selfish reasons. He works hard with his idols so they can be successful together.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: He is egotistical, lazy and somewhat thick, but at the end of the day he really does care about his clients, unlike his fellow rival Usagi.
- Mascot: A flying pink bear.
- Overly Long Name: Klaus Henrik Poncetta Von Vogel Strobel Cash De La Manecca the Third.
- The Rival: To Usagi, for as long as they knew each other. They often bicker on which one of their teams are the best.

- Trademark Favorite Food: His green juice.
- Verbal Tic: ~kuma.
Usagi
Voiced by: Takuma Terashima
The original manager of Sophy until she left him to join Laala and Mirei. He would later return with his new unit Dressing Pafé ready for payback. He is calculative enough to be a good manager, and over the series grows to be less greedy.
- Big Brother Instinct: Usagi maybe a jerk, but he truly loves his sister Usacha and works hard for her sake. Her respect and admiration for him caused Usagi to want to appear as incredible as she saw him.
- Cool Shades: Wears them on his head, but rarely on his eyes if at all.
- Easily Forgiven: Despite what he's done, SoLaMi SMILE doesn’t hold any grudges against him.
- A Glass of Chianti: On the similar vein to Kuma with his carrot juice, except the fact that he was truly an antagonist early on.
- Gold Digger: Only used Sophy to fulfill his goal of becoming the top manager, as well as gaining its perks.
- He's Back!: After losing Sophy and her associates, he hires the vengeful Dorothy and her twin, and later Mirei's rival Sion.
- It's All About Me: Has this attitude during his time as Sophy's manager. He didn't care about the real her or what she wanted as long as it gave him what he wanted.
- Jerkass: At first, he is judgmental, controlling and extremely boastful; overall, a rabbit deserved his role as the antagonist. After he gains Dressing Pafe he has toned down severely over the series.
- Keeping Secrets Sucks: He had to keep Sophy's real side away from the public and found it to be a nuisance.
- Mascot: A flying purple rabbit.

- Villain with Good Publicity: Despite being a jerk, nobody is said to hate him, and he manages to easily get work for his clients.

- Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: Came off this way at first with concerns only over herself and making Falulu the best Idol.
