The protagonist of the game. A young witch charged with protecting the Sea Kingdom alongside her familiars. She is the only daughter of the Great Sorcerer, Meikai.
- Adaptational Wimp: In the game, she's more than capable of fighting effectively, even defeating Orca by herself. In the manga, she does almost no fighting at all.
- Affectionate Nickname: Wadda.
- All-Loving Hero: Deconstructed. She thinks the best of everybody, and the closest she gets to hating the villains is deciding she can't trust them, and that they have to be stopped for others' protection. Her endless kindness, however, easily lets any nefarious plans the villains have slip through, making her a magnet for all sorts of trouble, especially with how it factors into the endings of the game.
- Being Tortured Makes You Evil: Whatever Sal does to her in the first normal ending results in her gleefully becoming the Red Witch.
- Blush Sticker: They're even visible on her sprite.
- Braids of Action: Twin long braids and can fight back with magic.
- Brainy Brunette: Unfortunately, she's not too quick on the uptake when it comes to other matters...
- Break the Cutie: In the final chapters of the game, she is painfully forced to remember how she was betrayed by Sal, used as a pawn of the Dead Sea Kingdom, trapped in a nightmarish world by Princess Mikotsu, sees her homeland corrupted into what can only be described as Hell under water, and the boy who loves her is nearly killed before her eyes. Depending on the ending, she then either is tortured until she joins the forces of evil, makes a Heroic Sacrifice to save Samekichi, or is also almost killed, only being saved by Samekichi's Heroic Sacrifice — but spends a long time after that blaming herself for not protecting him.
- The Cameo: Appears in Mogeko Castle as a figurine on Somewhat Strange Mogeko's shelf.
- Clueless Dude Magnet: Attracts the attention of Samekichi, Fukami, and Sal, but is incredibly innocent to their affections.
- Cute Witch: Cute as a button and is a sweet girl at heart.
- Dull Eyes of Unhappiness: Gets them in the True Ending after Samekichi sacrifices himself. Her eyes return to normal when he returns years later.
- Earn Your Happy Ending: In the True Ending, Wadanohara does finally get to be happy together with Samekichi, but she's put through hell first, and then has to wait many years while Samekichi fights through the Sea of Death.
- Innocent Gray Eyes: Gray eyes to highlight her innocence and her beauty.
- Inverted Portrait: Shown this way near the end when Princess Mikotsu briefly manages to trap her in a Lotus-Eater Machine.
- Heroic Sacrifice: In the second normal ending, she follows in her father's footsteps and becomes a new Cast Pearl to ward off the Dead Sea.
- Jack of All Stats: All of her stats are well balanced.
- Laser-Guided Amnesia: She can't recall the exact circumstances of Samekichi's apparent betrayal. This is because she's under a curse from Sal, and feels intense pain if she begins to remember anything.
- Living Emotional Crutch: To Samekichi. When she sacrifices herself in the second normal ending, Samekichi throws himself into the sea because his home feels empty without her in it.
- Lotus-Eater Machine: Princess Mikotsu traps her mind in a version of Deepsea Town where nothing bad will ever happen to her friends... because they're all dead. Her father's spirit helps bring her out of it.
- Nice Girl: Her kindness is the reason why pretty much everyone in the Sea Kingdom adores her and why her sacrifice in the second Normal Ending ended up having such an impact.
- Official Couple: With Samekichi in the True Ending.
- Only Sane Woman: Is the only one that even considers the possibility that Samekichi is not the traitor and Tostasu Kingdom might have a reason for attacking, which is proven to be correct.
- Sailor Fuku: Some of her outfits borrow elements of the sailor fuku, fitting her status as a sea witch and her overall nautical motif.
- Stepford Smiler: Wadanohara is a Type A at times. When something upsets her, she'll hide it under a cheerful facade, although most people can easily sense something's amiss.
- Took a Level in Badass: In the True Ending, Wadanohara gains a rank, going from ordinary sea witch to "The Great Sea Witch".
- Vague Age: She's really short, but seems Older Than She Looks. It's implied that she might not grow properly in a conversation with Samekichi, possibly due to being a witch that was born from an egg.
- I Will Wait for You: What she does in the true ending for Samekichi, through Fukami's encouragement and consoling.
Samekichi (Spoiler Warning)
"...Wadanohara."
Wadanohara's first familiar, a shark boy. For unknown reasons, he left her side at some point in the past and now tries to force her out of the Sea Kingdom. Is the prime suspect of being the traitor in Blue Sea Kingdom.- Arc Villain: He’s the main antagonistic character in the first act, as he tries to keep Wada out of the sea, but he isn’t exactly a villain.
- Androcles' Lion: For most of the story, Wadanohara's friends think that Samekichi is the traitor who attacked Wadanohara, stole the sacred sword, and damaged the barrier stones. However, Wadanohara repeatedly refuses to believe this, choosing to believe in Samekichi. Wadanohara's faith in Samekichi is rewarded — Samekichi isn't the traitor, Sal is, and Samekichi ends up being a valuable ally.
- Babies Ever After: A bonus scene in -Reboot- reveals that Samekichi and Wadanohara had a child named Minami.
- Badass in Distress: At the hands of both Orca and Sal. The former brutally beats and plans to eat him, while the latter traps him in the Sea of Death, both times requiring Wada to save him.
- Break Her Heart to Save Her: His antagonistic behavior towards Wadanohara is both to prevent her from regaining her lost memories — which carries a chance of permanently breaking her mind — and to keep her away from the machinations of the Dead Sea.
- Cain and Abel: Abel to Sal's Cain. Sal, the traitor, hates him and decides to frame him for being the traitor. Why is never explained.
- Driven to Suicide: Though the game never shows it directly, it is heavily implied that he does this in the second Normal Ending in order to be together with Wadanohara, who pulled a Heroic Sacrifice earlier.
- Earn Your Happy Ending: In the True Ending, Samekichi does finally get to be happy together with Wadanohara, but he has to go through hell, literally (in the form of the Sea of Death), first.
- 11th-Hour Ranger: Once Sal's curse on Wadanohara's memories fades, he stops acting so distant and starts directly helping her.
- Forced into Evil: Due to his circumstances, he had no choice but to be the villain to the entire Blue Sea Kingdom to keep Wadanohara is safe.
- Forced to Watch: Whatever it is that Sal may or may not be doing to Wadanohara in Normal End 1, he is made to see all of it.
- Good All Along: Though built up as the traitor and a major antagonist, he was extorted into obeying the whims of the true traitor in order to save Wadanohara.
- Guest-Star Party Member: Once Wadanohara's curse is a non-issue, he's able to help her and her party of familiars. However, since there's no fifth member slot in the game, he "joins" by being (temporary) extra commands for Wadanohara.
- Heroic Sacrifice: In the best ending, he follows Sal into the Dead Sea to reclaim the Sacred Sword and use it to close the gate from the other side, despite the fact that it might be impossible to return.
- Lack of Empathy: Possibly. He professes not to care about the fate of the Sea of Death and the Sea Kingdom. He only cares about Wadanohara and her happiness. He could be exaggerating.
- Living Emotional Crutch: His attachment to Wadanohara is his entire motive for living.
- Meaningful Name: Aonami means "blue waves" in Japanese. It's a much more pure sounding name compared to his brother's.
- The Mole: Accused of being this. He’s not — he was framed.
- Never the Obvious Suspect: Everyone suspects him of being the traitor to the Blue Sea Kingdom — he has an intimidating, “bad boy” appearance, antagonizes Wadanohara and tries to keep her away from the sea, gets in the way of the mission to restore the kingdom’s defenses, and refuses to explain his reasons for doing so. His silhouette is also occasionally seen destroying the shields and doing other bad things. Because of this, everyone (save Wadanohara) thinks it’s him. So naturally, he turns out to have been framed by Sal, his own brother.
- Not in This for Your Revolution: He openly admits that he doesn't care what happens between the Sea of Death and Sea Kingdom, he only wants to protect Wadanohara.
- Official Couple: With Wadanohara in the True Ending.
- Only Known by Their Nickname: "Samekichi" is actually a nickname Wadanohara gave him. We never learn his real name. Subverted in -Reboot- where a bonus scene reveals that his name is Aonami.
- Recurring Boss: You fight against him three times over the course of the story.
- Starter Villain: He is the main antagonistic character of the first act, but is Forced into Evil.
- Undying Loyalty: To Wadanohara.
- Walking Spoiler: It is impossible to discuss him without revealing his true motives, which are only revealed in Act 3 where he turns out to be Good All Along.
- Zero-Approval Gambit: This is why Samekichi doesn't just tell everybody that he isn't the traitor: if he told anybody, Wadanohara would recover her memories, but then Sal's curse would eat into Wadanohara, so Samekichi let everybody think he was the traitor and kept trying to scare Wadanohara off so Wadanohara wouldn't be hurt. It's only when other events weaken the curse and restore Wadanohara's memories that Samekichi is finally able to come clean.
Memoca
"The sea's so biiig!"
Another one of Wadanohara's familiars, a seagull girl. She has more of a temper and is prone to playing pranks.- Boyish Short Hair: Has short, spiky hair. It gets longer in the true ending.
- Brutal Honesty: Sometimes Memoca can be blunt in comparison to Wadanohara's other familiars.
- Fragile Speedster: Memoca is the fastest member of Wadanohara's party, but has only slightly more health than Dolphi.
- Genki Girl: She’s rather energetic.
- Glass Cannon: She has the second-lowest HP of Wadanohara's party, but she has a lot of powerful multi-hit attacks in her arsenal.
- Humongous Mecha: Constantly draws pictures of herself as a giant robot called Momecha. Once she's at a high enough level, it actually becomes an attack — with Frickin' Laser Beams!
- Innocently Insensitive: Her phrasing is quite blunt, she enjoys "playfully tesing" others, especially Lobco, but it borders on bullying and enjoys poking helpless maggots with a stick.
- She Is All Grown Up: She gets quite the Girliness Upgrade in the True Ending, which includes long hair and high heels.
- Status Infliction Attack: One of her last moves, Flock, targets all enemies and inflicts all the status effects at once, several of which are not used anywhere else in the game!
- Tomboy: Significantly more boyish than Wadda and Dolphi, to the point where she could easily be mistaken for a young boy by appearance alone.
Dolphi
"I'm hungry..."
Another one of Wadanohara's familiars, a dolphin girl. She is soft-spoken and afraid of sharks.- Cowardly Lion: Dolphi gets upset and/or frightened easily, but she's also a strong member of Wadanohara's party and is always ready to defend Wadanohara from threats.
- Cute Bruiser: Dolphi looks cute, but she also does the most damage per attack out of anyone in Wadanohara's party.
- Friendly, Playful Dolphin: Not exactly playful, but still pretty nice.
- Glass Cannon: Her abilities can deal a nice bit of damage, but she has the lowest health of Wadanohara's party.
- Little Bit Beastly: A dolphin tail can be seen under her skirt.
- Little Miss Badass: She looks like a little girl, but she does a lot of damage per attack.
- She Is All Grown Up: Same with the Memoca example above.
- Shrinking Violet: Prone to frightening easily.
- Tender Tears: Dolphi cries when she's upset or afraid.
Fukami
"You like takoyaki?"
The last of Wadanohara's familiars, an octopus boy. He rarely smiles, but is fiercely protective of Wadanohara.- Adaptational Villainy: He's much more brutal in the manga version, typically ripping apart his enemies into a bloody mess. He's also the one who attacks Samekichi instead of Samekichi attacking him, going so far as to almost kill him in their second fight.
- Brainwashed and Crazy: Heavily implied in the second bad ending, as Sal's sprite is briefly visible behind his before he kills Wadanohara.
- Combat Tentacles: As an octopus, he puts his tentacles to good use, whether to strangle enemies or skewer them.
- Creepy Good: He can be quiet and a little too good at giving a Death Glare, but he's still one of the good guys.
- Deadpan Snarker: He's not above talking about roast fowl in front of Memoca, for starters.
- Death Glare: It's even one of his attacks.
- Green-Eyed Monster: His profile states that he's jealous of Wadanohara's feelings for Samekichi. Both times Wadanohara lost the ocarina he gave her, Fukami was behind it, although he arranges for it to be returned the second time.
- If I Can't Have You…: In the Betrayal ending, he kills Wadanohara when she goes to rescue Samekichi from Sal, who taunts him by saying these were his true feelings.
- I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: In the best ending, he, in spite of his jealousy, comforts Wadanohara and encourages her to keep waiting for Samekichi's return.
- The Lancer: He typically tells the other familiars what to do when Wadanohara doesn't, and occasionally goes against her wishes.
- Mighty Glacier: He's decently strong and the most resilient member of Wadanohara's party, but also the slowest.
- The One Guy: Of Wadanohara's familiars, barring Samekichi.
- The Quiet One: When other party members are verbally standing up to enemies, Fukami will usually just glare and say "..."
- The Stoic: Doesn't talk much, and he rarely emotes beyond his resting deadpan face.
Allies and Friends
Blue Sea Kingdom Residents
Lobco
"N-no, lobster fry..."
Chlomaki's long-suffering familiar. Another denizen of the Sea Kingdom, the daughter of Cherryblod and Doloz.- Beleaguered Assistant: Is one to Chlomaki.
- Blood Magic: As Chlomaki's familiar, she can vastly increase her power by licking a drop of the witch's blood. However, abusing the technique is dangerous to her health.
- Butt-Monkey: Her profile even states that bad things happen to her as soon as she leaves the sea... although she doesn't have a very good time of it in the sea, either.
- Daddy's Girl: Absolutely adores her father.
- The Eeyore: Downplayed.
- Hair Antennae: Ones that resemble lobster antennae.

Cherryblod
"Peace is best!"
Lobco's father and Doloz's husband.- Good Parents: He's quite a caring and supportive father to Lobco.
- Hair Antennae: Like Lobco, they resemble lobster antennae.
- Happily Married: With Doloz.
- Meaningful Name: Used to be called Cherryblood in his youth, for obvious reasons.
- Mum Looks Like a Sister: Looks more like he could be Lobco's older brother rather than her father.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: While not immediately apparent, since he's a pretty nice guy, it's implied he's very strong and was a more violent "bad boy" in the past.
- Red Baron: Cherryblood.
- Retired Monster: It's not clear just how bad his "bad boy days" were, but he recalls them with fondness.
- Rose-Haired Sweetie: A male example; Cherryblod has pink hair and is a pretty nice guy.
- Worf Had the Flu: Gets poisoned, much like Tatsumiya, but is heavily implied to be incredibly strong.
Minero
"The treasure must be there!"
A flapjack octopus girl and a resident of Wadanohara's town. Loves treasure hunting.- Butt-Monkey: Gets no respect from her friends because of how she keeps getting everyone lost, and is often collectively told to shut up.
- No Sense of Direction: Despite her love for treasure hunting, she gets lost quite a bit, much to everyone’s chagrin.
- Those Four Guys: Always seen with Creamil, Rimorimo, and Tomoshibi.
- Wingding Eyes: Some of her talk sprites have these.
Creamil
"Ugh, Minero's such a troublemaker."
A yeti crab girl and a resident of Wadanohara's town. Minero's friend.- Girlish Pigtails: Has a long pair that resemble crab legs.

- Those Four Guys: Always seen with Minero, Rimorimo, and Tomoshibi.
Rimorimo
"...Whatever."
A vampire squid girl and a resident of Wadanohara's town. Dislikes loud noises but doesn't seem to mind Minero's and Creamil's bantering.- Animal-Eared Headband: Her hood has squid fins, which look a bit like ears.
- Redhead In Green: Inverted. She has green hair and wears red.
- The Stoic: Very blunt, doesn't talk much and always looks bored or uncaring. Not even the Tosatsu Kingdom invasion phases her much.
- Those Four Guys: Always seen with Minero, Creamil, and Tomoshibi.
Tomoshibi
"......zzzzzz"
An angler fish girl and a resident of Wadanohara's town. Follows Minero and her friends along, and is almost always sleeping.- Eyes Always Shut: Due to her sleepy nature.
- Meaningful Name: Tomoshibi (灯火) means "lamplight", referring to the anglerfish light lure she has.
- Sleepyhead: Seems to be asleep on her feet a lot of the time. Exaggerated when she dozes off while surrounded by Tosatsu forces and is about to be attacked.
- The Quiet One: Only ever snores or yawns, and speaks very little. The most she ever says is to tell Minero to shut up.
- Those Four Guys: Always seen with Minero, Creamil, and Rimorimo.
Irena
"Oh, when's my sister coming back?"
A mermaid who lives in Wadanohara's town. She often sends Wadanohara on errands because she can't walk on land.- Fetch Quest: Not in-game, but as we learn in a flashback, not only did Irena send Wadanohara out to get apples, but Irena very frequently asks Wadanohara to get things that Irena, being a mermaid, can't reach on her own. Wadanohara doesn't mind as she's glad to help out.
- Girlish Pigtails: Has twin braids.
- Heart Symbol: On her obi. Her hair has a heart-shaped highlight.
- Informed Ability: Her bio states she's good at singing, but she never sings in-game.
- Pretty in Mink: Her kimono sleeves and bottom hem are fuzzy.
Miyura
"Stop hittin' me, dude!"
A mermaid who lives in Wadanohara's town. Seguro's friend.- Girlish Pigtails: Wears her hair in braids, like Irena. Must be a mermaid thing.
- Idiot Hair: Has one that curves off to the side.
- Polyamory: Refers to Helica and Seguro as her "main squeeze", which is slang for someone's main lover. Probably not canon, as it's meant to be a translation of "senpai" for the English version.
- Surfer Dude: Has shades of speaking like this.
- The Klutz: Has shades of this.
- Unusual Ears: Blue fins.
Seguro
"Groan..."
A sea snake and Miyura's friend. Enjoys smoking and beer.- Face of a Thug: Always looks angry, but isn't that bad of a guy.
- Meaningful Name: His name could come from Seguro umihebi (背黒海蛇), the Japanese name for the yellow-bellied sea snake. Seguro (背黒) is also composed of the words "back" and "black", and he has a black back.
- Vitriolic Best Buds: One-sidedly to Miyura. He's often exasperated by her and sometimes hits her because of her antics, and sometimes sees her as in his way. Nonetheless, he still enjoys her company.
Aom
"I worry for Lobco..."
A giant river prawn girl and resident of Wadanohara's town. Lobco's friend.- Hair Antennae: They resemble prawn antennae.
- Meaningful Name: Ao means blue, and she has a prominently blue colour scheme.
- Vertebrate with Extra Limbs: Has her prawn arms and pinchers extending from her back. Weirdly enough, she's the only animal-person to display animal limbs.
Tarako
"Puu!"
An octopus living in Deep Sea Town.- Ambiguous Gender: Tarako identifies as Tarako.
- Malicious Misnaming: Likes to tease Samekichi affectionately by intentionally misnaming him.
- Verbal Tic: "Puu!"
Princess Uomi’s Court
Tatsumiya
"Lord Meikai..."
An oarfish mermaid who serves Princess Uomi. She was the familiar of Wadanohara's father and raised her after his passing.- Adaptational Badass: Seen in the manga fighting off Totsusa soldiers with a naginata, in spite of her poisoning.
- All Girls Want Bad Boys: Bonus material implies she has a crush on Orca. Though it has been stated that since Tatsumiya is very gentle, Idate would treat her in a gentlemanly manner.
- The Chosen One: Meikai chose her to wield the Sacred Sword over Old, causing the latter’s betrayal.
- Hair Antennae: Has two long, red antennae extend from the top of her head.
- Hime Cut: Though her hair is shorter than most examples, it still signifies her elegance. It was much longer in the past when she was still Meikai’s familiar, implying she cut her hair following his death.
- Parental Substitute: For Wadanohara, entrusted by her father Meikai. Tatsumiya frets over her foster daughter often, worrying about her health and problems, and will go to hell and back to keep her safe.
- Undying Loyalty: Towards Meikai. She continues to refer to herself as his familiar and grieve for him even centuries after his death.
- Worf Had the Flu: Tatsumiya is normally one of the most powerful spellcasters in the kingdom, but was afflicted with a mysterious poison before Wadanohara's homecoming that renders her unable to hold off the Tosatsu forces.
Pulmo
"Fwaaah..."
A jellyfish girl who serves Princess Uomi.- Exotic Eye Designs: Has a flower shape in her eyes.
- Girlish Pigtails: The jellyfish on either side of her head gives this impression.
- Hime Cut: Her hair is styled like this, minus the jellyfish on either side.
- Meaningful Name: Named after the Rhizostoma Pulmo, also known as the barrel jellyfish.
- Verbal Tic: Teends to draaw out her woooords, fwaaaah....
Helica
"None shall upset the morals of this sea!"
A venus comb murex girl who serves Princess Uomi. Rather thick-headed and easily confused.- Berserk Button: Helica gets really angry when people disturb the public morals, and in fact, you have to beat her in a boss battle to calm her down after she went ballistic on some Tosatsu soldiers.
- Can't Hold Her Liquor: Helica gets falling-over drunk from merely the smell of alcohol. It's even lampshaded by her name in the text-box, which becomes "Somehow Already Drunk Helica" at the start of the banquet (and later changes to "Tremendously Drunk Helica").
- Girlish Pigtails: Has a rather pointy pair.
- This Is a Drill: Her weapon is a large spiral knight's lance that looks like a drill, though whether or not it really spins is the question.
Princess Uomihime
"....."
Daughter of the Sea God and ruler of Wadanohara's homeland.- Big Good: She’s at the top of the Blue Sea Kingdom and is a benevolent figure who supports Wadanohara on her journey to become a great witch.
- Blue Is Heroic: Her overall color scheme is of a bright blue shade, as opposed to her evil sister Mikotsu whose design is adorned by blood red color.
- Cool Crown: Wears a gold crown embedded with small amber stones.
- Cooldown Hug: Gives one to Princess Tosatsu to calm her down, causing Princess Tosatsu to realize she was going too far.
- Deep Sleep: She spends most of the game in one to subdue her sister, Princess Mikotsu. Jiiya, the fish in her hair, serves as her translator.
- Head Pet: Jiiya is always on her head, and looks like a hair ornament from a distance.
- It's All My Fault: Uomi blames herself for the war with Tosatsu because Uomi didn't "talk it out" with Tosatsu, but Tosatsu reassures her that no, it was Tosatsu's own fault for going too far.
- Meaningful Name: Uo means 'fish'.
- Nice Girl: She's a very kindhearted ruler. She doesn't even seem mad at Princess Tosatsu for all that happened.
- Offscreen Moment of Awesome: Her fight with Princess Mikotsu. Afterwards, Mikotsu is grievously wounded and bleeding profusely, and Uomi is completely unharmed.
- Princesses Rule: While she’s officially the ruler of the Blue Sea Kingdom, everyone still refers to her as "Princess".
- Royals Who Actually Do Something: Even though she doesn’t seem like doing anything aside from sleeping, she’s actually trying to keep her evil sister Mikotsu in a century-long slumber. When that fails and Mikotsu breaks free, Uomi goes on to fight her one-on-one, and wins without a single scratch. No wonder the Sea King chose her.
- Thousand-Yard Stare: Her permanent expression. Jiiya has one too.
- Visible Silence: Her default mode of "speaking" (or not speaking), which Jiiya interprets and speaks for her.
Others
Chlomaki
Chlomaki/Nadine
"Witches are good stuff!"
A senior witch dressed all in black who introduced Wadanohara to the Witch World.- Bad Boss: She regularly hits Lobco and has no issues forcing her to use a Dangerous Forbidden Technique.
- Big Damn Heroes: When it looks like Wadanohara and co. are outnumbered by Tosatsu soldiers, she appears to hold them off with Lobco.
- Cat Girl: Her hat has cat ear like points on the brim, she hates water, and she has a tail.
- Curtains Match the Windows: Black hair and eyes.
- Cute Little Fangs: Has a pair, similar to a cat.
- Dissonant Serenity: When the Tosatsu Kingdom attacks, there is war and death all around her, but does Chlomaki care? ...nah. She just keeps bullying Lobco.
- Mysterious Past: Chlomaki's backstory is alluded to several times during the game, but the player never learns any details besides her being very old, having many familiars, and that she used to know Cherryblod during his bad boy days. However, bonus material on Deep-Sea Prisoner's website reveals that she used to work under the God of her world and was originally an angel called Nadine. What caused her to run away and became a witch is so far unknown.
- Too Many Belts: She’s got ten of them.
- The Watson: Chlomaki isn't familiar with the goings-on of the blue sea, so sometimes other characters will fill Chlomaki in (and thus also fill in the audience). A notable example comes during the banquet, where Tatsumiya has to explain to Chlomaki (and thus to the audience) why Wadanohara's father, the Great Sorcerer, is held in such high esteem.
Nekoyama
"Ahh..."
A seagull mailman.- Chekhov's Gunman: He reappears in the True Ending to deliver Wadanohara's ocarina back to her.
- Drama Queen: Acts like he's dying because he hasn't eaten in a while.
- The Cameo: Is seen in Deep-Sea Prisoner's other work, Ice Scream, delivering Orca cigarettes.
- Trademark Favorite Food: Star Fruits. In fact, when you first meet him, he hasn't eaten in a while, but he insists on eating only Star Fruits (even after Memoca offers to give him some donuts to eat).
Meikai
"...I pray for your happiness."
Wadanohara's presumably deceased father, the Great Sorcerer.- The Archmage: Having something like "the Great" in his title definitely is a proof that he was a very powerful wizard. Indeed, he singlehandedly sealed Mikotsuhime and the other inhabitants of the Sea of Death away.
- Badass Cape: Wears large navy cape with a star pattern inside, and was The Archmage of the Blue Sea Kingdom.
- Disappeared Dad: He isn’t present in Wadanohara’s entire life and leaves her in the care of the Blue Sea Kingdom’s residents, as he’s already "dead" before she was even born.
- Face Death with Dignity: Prior to performing the spell to seal Mikotsuhime and her supporters to the Sea of Death, he expressed a collected demeanor to his possible death by sacrifice and calmly arranged the care for the kingdom and his daughter while Tatsumiya was freaking out in his place.
- Heroic Sacrifice: Gave up his life to seal away the Dead Sea and became the Cast Pearl above the Sea King's palace.
- Hot Wizard: He’s indeed very good looking. No wonder he got four people, all of their own high status, smitten with him.
- Magic Staff: Wielded a majestic moon-and-stars staff that he gives Wadanohara later in order to save the Sea Kingdom, bestowing her his power at the same time.
- Meaningful Name: "Meikai" translates to "dark ocean", befitting his status as the Great Sorcerer of the Sea.
- Posthumous Character: As he committed a Heroic Sacrifice before Wadanohara’s birth, Meikai's only appearances are in the form of references and memories of others. He does get to appear on his own once in his daughter’s mind, though.
- Robe and Wizard Hat: His pointed wizard hat is decorated with a darker navy strip, a light blue crescent moon, and two stars.
- Symbol Motif Clothing: Has a bunch of crescent moons adorning his clothes, and the inside of his hat and cape are coloured to look like the sea. He has heavy association with the ocean and Wadanohara's mom is implied to be the moon.
- Truly Single Parent: To Wadanohara, who apparently hatched from an egg shortly after his Heroic Sacrifice. Some bonus material implies her mother was the moon, but the specifics are left unclear.
- Uncertain Doom: There is no absolute certainty that Meikai is dead. Tatsumiya expresses that it is only theorized by the Kingdom that the spell that he had cast to seal the Red Sea away was too powerful for his body to bare; this, however, is not a certainty and is only a theory that Meikai is deceased. Where Meikai's current whereabouts are remain a mystery.
Orca/Idate
"I'm just an Orca on a stroll."
An orca "on a stroll". A fan of violence and starting fights.- All There in the Manual: His given name is "Idate", as shown in Deep-Sea Prisoner's other works.
- Badass in a Nice Suit: He wears a sharp-looking black business suit, and beats sharks up and down for the fun of it. Even Old, a former familiar of Meikai who can fight on par with Tatsumiya, gets curb-stomped by him just as quick as his immature son Samekichi.
- Blood Knight: His hobby according to the bonus room bios? Violence. The initial reason he steps in between Old and Tatsumiya is that he thinks the former is ending the fight too quickly.
- Transplant: He's from a separate series of comics about Arctic creatures done by Deep-Sea Prisoner. Apparently, the reason he's strolling around Wadanohara's neighborhood is that he got bored up north.
- Devious Dolphins: A violent, shark-bullying orca.
- Even Evil Has Standards: A bit of an odd example; he'll kill and eat Wadanohara if he gets the chance, but after taking down Old of the Red Sea, he advises Tatsumiya to avoid those sorts of guys (apparently having mistaken their fight for domestic abuse).
- Fantastic Racism: Being an orca, he especially delights in tormenting sharks — and he doesn't really care which side they're on. He constantly calls them short-tempered and stupid.
- I'm a Humanitarian: Expresses interest in eating Wadanohara to see what witch flesh tastes like. If you lose or attempt to escape his boss battle, he gets to find out.
- Knight of Cerebus: Your first encounter with him marks the first point where the game starts to reveal its dark side.
- Smoking Is Cool: Especially underwater.
- Starter Villain: He’s the closest thing that the first act has to a main villain, as Samekichi isn’t much of a villain.
- Wild Card: He's initially a minor antagonist, but in the climax, his penchant for violence works in the Sea Kingdom's favor as he beats up antagonist Old.
Totsusa Kingdom and Associates
Princess Totsusahime
"My boning knife can and will cut anything!"
The princess of the Totsusa Kingdom, which is invading despite a formerly friendly relationship with the Sea Kingdom. She serves as the main antagonist of the game who wants to kill Uomi.- Arc Villain: She doesn’t appear until the second act, and is only the antagonist of that act.
- Affectionate Nickname: Uomi calls her "Satsu".
- Ax-Crazy: She takes great joy in her massacres, and relishes the thought of killing Uomi. Actually downplayed, as she is capable of controlling it, as shown post-Heel–Face Turn.
- Big Bad: She’s the leader of Tosatsu Kingdom, the enemy faction, and thus leads the invasion of the Blue Sea kingdom seeking to kill Princess Uomi; however, it turns out that this was over a misunderstanding perpetrated by the traitor.
- Big Damn Heroes: She and her forces return to protect the citizens of the Sea Kingdom when the Dead Sea invades.
- Cain and Abel: As the princess of the legend, she seeks to kill her sister Uomi to take the throne. Subverted, since she’s not actually the princess from the legend, so Uomi isn’t her sister. Rather, they’re cousins.
- Cute Is Evil/Cute and Psycho: The Big Bad is a cute little bunny princess. Subverted as she is a Disc-One Final Boss who does a Heel–Face Turn.
- Cute Little Fangs: Has a small pair.
- Daddy's Little Villain: Her father is completely on-board with her relentless slaughtering. Unlike most examples, however, he serves as The Dragon to her rather than the other way around. Thankfully, they both mellow out — at least enough to turn their slaughtering against a bigger threat.
- Disc-One Final Boss: Turns out she was being manipulated by Sal into fighting.
- Duel Boss: Wadanohara fights her solo.
- Girl with Psycho Weapon: Really likes her boning knife.
- Heel–Face Turn: In the third act, after the mistunderstanding was cleared up.
- Hime Cut: Her hair is styled like this, fitting her princessly title.
- Killer Rabbit: Literally, like the rest of her people.
- Knight of Cerebus: Her appearance marks the beginning of the second act, which involves a full-on invasion of the Blue Sea Kingdom and multiple soldier deaths on both sides.
- Let's You and Him Fight: Sal forges a letter from Princess Uomi claiming to have ended their friendship and executed several of Tosatsu's citizens, which promptly pissed Tosatsu off.
- Meaningful Name: 'Tosatsu' is Japanese for slaughter. Fitting for a vicious, murderous princess.
- Moral Myopia: She and her forces murder who-knows-how-many creatures of the Sea Kingdom during their invasion. But when Wadanohara fights her, she begins crying and calls Wadanohara a bully.
- My God, What Have I Done?: When Princess Uomi tells Princess Tosatsu that the former doesn't hate the latter, Princess Tosatsu realizes aloud how foolish she was acting and that she went too far, especially since despite what Princess Tosatsu thought, Princess Uomi didn't send a hateful letter or kill Tosatsu's soldiers.
- Poor Communication Kills: Potentially the entire conflict could have been avoided if she’d just bothered to verify the truth of the letter intended to turn her against Uomi. Somewhat justified as she is a Royal Brat.
- Royal Brat: She gleefully leads a bloody invasion of her fellow kingdom over a misunderstanding.
- Villainous Princess: She is the leader of the enemy kingdom invading the Blue Sea Kingdom and is a Cute and Psycho bunny girl with a boning knife. She serves as the Evil Counterpart to the Princess Uomi. Her goal is to kill Uomi. She is not, however, the princess from the legend.
King Artamos
"I'm getting up there in years..."
Princess Tosatsu's dad and king of the Tosatsu kingdom. A floating robotic rabbit head, currently travelling with his daughter.- Arc Villain: Of the second act along with his daughter.
- The Dragon: To his daughter.
- Forced Transformation: Was cursed by a witch to appear as he does in-game. Doesn't seem to mind it all that much.
- Hair-Raising Hare: He's the king of a kingdom of them.
- Large and in Charge: According to Memoca, he used to be a huge and scary rabbit.
- Papa Wolf: Gets real bloodthirsty if he thinks you wronged his daughter.
- Rank Scales with Asskicking: He's the king of Tosatsu kingdom and is completely invincible in battle.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: His eyes are usually orange, but turn red when he gets angry.
- Zero-Effort Boss: In your boss battle with him, if you repeatedly choose to "Guard", Artamos will eventually run out of battery because he used too much energy while he was taking a stroll earlier.
Hofuru
"Orders, Your Majesty?"
A tanuki girl who serves the Tosatsu Kingdom.- Hime Cut: How her hair is styled.
- Little Bit Beastly: Has both tanuki ears and a tail.
- Meaningful Rename: Hofuru, while a given name, can be read as 屠る, which means to slaughter or to butcher. Given that she serves Tosatsu, it's only appropriate.
- Only Known by Their Nickname: Her name's really Yayoi.
- Tanuki: What she is.
- Voluntary Shapeshifter: Can shapeshift to look like other people.
Laurentia
"I want excitement! ♪ "
A demon mercenary hired by the Tosatsu Kingdom.- Braids of Action: Has a short pair, done up with red bows.
- Exotic Eye Designs: Her eyes have the same arrowhead pattern that's all over her clothes.
- For the Lulz: Works for Tosatsu because she wants something exciting to do.
- Horned Humanoid: Has a curved red pair, due to being a demon.
Vendetto

- Coat Cape: Wears a black one.
- Dub Name Change: From Adauchi in the Japanese version.
- Handwraps of Awesome: Memoca even lampshades this, though the real reason was due to Vendetto's injuries.
- Idiot Hair: Has one that curves off to the side.
- Playing with Fire: Underwater, even!
Ver Million
"Any good work?"
A demon mercenary hired by the Tosatsu Kingdom and Wadanohara's friend.- Consummate Professional: If Ver Million has taken on a job, she'll see it through to completion, even if she doesn't like it.
- Horned Humanoid: Has a big, curved, red pair, due to being a demon.
- Idiot Hair: Has a short, curved one.
- Nothing Personal: Ver Million explains to Wadanohara that attacking the kingdom isn't personal; she was just hired to do a job and she always tries to complete any job she's given.
- Oh, Crap!: Her reaction when finding out she was hired to attack Wadanohara's kingdom.
- Tomboy: Girly things is listed under her dislikes.
- Winged Humanoid: Small bat wings.
- Wolverine Claws: Uses claw weapons only on her right hand.

Spoiler Characters/Denizens of the Sea of Death
The Traitor
Ambassador Shiranami aka Sal/Syake-san/Syakesan
"Hahaha. ♪ "
Click hereto see his humanoid form
A white salmon shark who serves Princess Uomi. In actuality, he's the traitor, the Ambassador of the Sea of Death, and Samekichi's brother, and one of the two true main antagonists of the game. His real loyalty is to Princess Mikotsu.
- Asshole Victim: His death was painful, slow, and 100% deserved for all that he had done.
- Ax-Crazy: He displays a disturbing love of violence, rape, and terrorism.
- Berserk Button: Wadanohara's love for Samekichi is the quickest way to put him into merciless murder mode.
- Beneath Suspicion: Nobody suspected him for a second.
- Big Bad: Of the first two acts, as he manipulates Tosatsu Kingdom and the Blue Sea Kingdom into fighting each other.
- Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: See Wolf In Sheep's Clothing.
- Blood Is the New Black: After his boss fight, his face and clothing are covered in his own blood. He doesn't seem to mind.
- Cain and Abel: The Cain to Samekichi's Abel, Sal gets killed in the true ending.
- The Chain of Harm: His use of Mind Rape and Death of Personality on Wadanohara in Normal End 1, and exploiting Fukami's jealousy to easily mind-control him in Bad End 2 is shockingly similar to what Mikotsu did to him. Fukami, at least, continues the cycle.
- Combat Sadomasochist: His fight against Wadanohara has him gleefully egg her on, even as he starts to bleed profusely from his wounds. His response when it's over is a simple "Not bad".
- Cool Sword: The Sacred Sword, corrupted and turned blood-red after stealing it.
- Criminal Doppelgänger: To Samekichi.
- Crazy Jealous Guy: He's less than thrilled when Wadanohara frantically calls for Samekichi to save her. In fact, he considers killing his brother despite Wada's pleas not to.
- Cute Is Evil/Cute and Psycho: He masquerades as a Friendly, Playful Dolphin to manipulate others. Averted with his more sinister-looking humanoid form.
- Death of Personality: There's nearly no trace of the original Sal left. In the manga, Samekichi attempts to reason with him when the two are alone, using his real name in the process. Sal replies that he left that name and person behind a long time ago, and promptly attacks Samekichi.
- In Normal Ending 1, he inflicts the exact same fate on Wadanohara.
- Devious Dolphins: In his dolphin form. In fact, his psychotic rapist tendencies are more in line with real dolphin behavior.
- Dirty Coward: He is shown to be very weak and cowardly in the True End, where he stabs Wadanohara and runs away; the last we see of him is when he gets slain by Samekichi.
- Dissonant Serenity: His perpetual cheerfulness doesn't seem to be an act, and it becomes deeply unsettling after The Reveal.
- The Dragon: To Princess Mikotsu.
- Dragon-in-Chief: He is more of a direct threat to the heroes, and kick-started the game's plot in the first place. He is a more personal villain to Wadanohara and Samekichi, while his employer wants revenge on the princesses. This is mostly justified as he is the only Dead Sea inhabitant who wasn't sealed away.
- Dub Name Change: From Syake-san in the Japanese version.
- Duel Boss: Wadanohara fights him on her own.
- Evil Counterpart: To his brother Samekichi. Both serve a cute girl who is the leader of their group, and both are motivated by love, but whereas Samekichi displays a pure love for Wadanohara because he treats her like a person, Sal disregards Wada’s feelings in favor of raping her, and the girl he serves is an evil princess whom Wada opposes.
- Evil Laugh: Overlapping with Giggling Villain.
- Evil Twin: To Samekichi, since they look almost identical in their humanoid forms and are actual siblings. Sal used this trait to wreak havoc and pin the blame on his brother.
- Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas: Before Sal was brainwashed by the Sea of Death, he deeply cared about his mother. And even during the game, he still cares and misses her. However, this was strictly in the reboot of the game; no mention of his mother is present in the original game.
- Foreshadowing: Out of all the Blue Sea denizens, he is by far the most cutesy, sweet, and happy, to the point of it being almost nauseating. This hints at it being a facade he is trying way too hard to keep up. It also hints at his Yandere nature, since he mainly displays this whenever Wadanohara is around, gives her a ring of all things, and tells her things like "I'd do anything for you!" and "Whoa, I like those clothes!".
- Faux Affably Evil: While he appears to be an innocent person, it's all an act to hide his nasty, scheming nature.
- For the Evulz: Wadanohara initially thinks that he's being manipulated by the Dead Sea, but Sal is quick to set her straight that, no, he just really enjoys the horrible things he does. (He is being manipulated, but he doesn't care.)
- Friendly, Playful Dolphin: He initially comes across as this, as an always happy and helpful ally to Wada. Nope! He's actually a Devious Dolphin, despite his efforts to seem friendly and playful.
- From Nobody to Nightmare: He wasn't able to accept the loss of his mother, which would affect his mind; this resulted in him wanting to take out his anger on the people around him, even his own brother, his aunt… nobody was safe.
- Giggling Villain: Much of his dialogue is punctuated with giggling, even after his true nature becomes apparent.
- Hate Sink: He's made to be an incredibly despicable, deceitful character with no redeeming qualities and nothing sympathetic about him, that eventually gets his deserved comeuppance. Even King mogeko, Shinya Kurai, and Ivlis think he takes it way too far!
- The Heavy: As the only denizen of the Dead Sea who wasn't sealed away, he drives the majority of their schemes — sealing Wadanohara's memories, stealing the Sacred Sword, breaking the Sea Kingdom's barrier (twice), manipulating Princess Tosatsu into invading, poisoning both Tatsumiya and Cherryblod, and even terrorizing the blue sea.
- If I Can't Have You…: In the best ending, when Wadanohara refuses his offers, he stabs her and leaves her for dead as he returns to the Dead Sea just to later die.
- Knight of Cerebus: The biggest by far, as he heralds the beginning of the outright horrifying third act.
- Karma Houdini Warranty: After escaping justice in True ending, Samekichi tracks him down and gives him his most well deserved fate in the bonus scene At the end of the hate.
- Laser-Guided Amnesia: He has memory-based powers, and uses them to great effect on Wadanohara.
- Laser-Guided Karma:
- In Normal End 2, he is sealed away with Princess Mikotsu leading the two to die.
- In the True End, Samekichi follows him into the Sea of Death and later returns with the Sacred Sword; it's shown that Samekichi finally killed him for good.
- Large Ham: He can be quite bombastic. Best exemplified during The Reveal.
- Light Is Not Good: His entire color scheme is mostly white, and he is most certainly not good.
- Like Parent, Like Spouse: Wadanohara physically resembles his deceased mother, which puts his crush on her in a new light.
- Major Injury Underreaction: Despite being grievously wounded after his boss fight, he doesn't seem to care.
- Meaningful Name: Syake means 'salmon' and Sal also comes from salmon. His real name, Shironami, means "white waves" in Japanese, which refers to the color's association with death.
- The Mole: Presented himself as a harmless, bumbling Nice Guy, but in actuality, he's been plotting against his supposed friends for quite some time.
- Narcissist: Believes he is entitled to Wadanohara’s love, and reacts violently if she refuses.
- Only Known by Their Nickname: However, it's more of a Meaningful Nickname. We don't know what his name actually is. Subverted in -Reboot- where a bonus scene reveals that his name is Shiranami.
- Post-Final Boss: He is the last enemy fought, but doesn’t even attack.
- Posthumous Character: The game was set in a flashback, since Sal was dead for an unknown amount of time.
- Psychotic Smirk: In his humanoid form, this is his default expression — even after he has the tar kicked out of him by Wadanohara.
- Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil: Attempts to sexually assault Wadanohara during the flashback where he lures her into a cave and reveals his true nature for the first time, but is stopped by Samekichi. In the first normal ending, he appears to succeed, and Samekichi is Forced to Watch.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: Hoo boy.
- Sibling Yin-Yang: With Samekichi — although it's only mentioned in the bonus materials.
- Sissy Villain: He is rather effeminate in his mannerisms and cheeriness, and displays them when committing horrible atrocities.
- Tears of Blood: Blood constantly leaks from his eyes in his more abominable shark form, seen after he's revealed as the traitor.
- Too Kinky to Torture: Seems to be enjoying himself quite a bit during his fight with Wadanohara.
- The Unfought: The “battle” with him is a Zero-Effort Boss, and he is never properly fought. Instead, Samekichi takes care of him offscreen.
- Used to Be a Sweet Kid: Bonus artworks and one bonus scene unlocked after beating the game reveals that he didn't have red eyes as kid and thus wasn't always under the Red Sea's influence. It is indicated that Mikotsu corrupted him on some level. It's likely he was chosen by Mikotsu due to the grief of the loss of his mother and self-loathing making him considerably easier for her powers to corrupt, much like how Sal himself is implied to have exploited Fukami's feelings of jealousy in the second bad end.
- Villain in a White Suit: In his human form, of course. And in official art of an alternate universe where he's not evil, he wears a gray blazer and a turtleneck instead.
- Walking Spoiler: His motives and his real personality change everything about the game.
- White Hair, Black Heart: In his humanoid form, he has white hair, and is every bit the Devious Dolphin/Threatening Shark he is otherwise.
- Wolf in Sheep's Clothing: He masqueraded himself as a friendly, cheerful shark/dolphin who was willing to help however he could. The reality is that he's been planning to bring back Princess Mikotsu and make the sea revert back to its original chaotic state and plan his terrorist attack.
- Yandere: For Wadanohara, big time.
- Zero-Effort Boss: He is actually unable to attack during his boss fight, and he automatically dies on turn 10, regardless of damage.
Mikotsuhime
Princess Mikotsuhime
".....father."
Princess Uomi's sister, who began the Great War when the Sea King/God named Uomi his successor. She and her forces were sealed away by Meikai, but released by Sal.- Asshole Victim: She's a self-centered princess who uses her powers to corrupt her people and started a war that killed millions over a temper tantrum. It's hard to feel sorry when Samekichi kills her in -Reboot-.
- Accent Upon The Wrong Syllable: The few times she doesn't speak through her fish translator, her dialog is rendered this way. Uomi speculates she's forgotten how to talk. The only time she speaks normally is when she asks Samekichi to put an end to her suffering.
- And I Must Scream: Her fate while sealed with the Sea of Death.
- Big Bad: Of the final act, after being unsealed. She unleashes the Sea of Death upon the world and tries to kill Uomi to claim the throne.
- Cain and Abel: The Cain to Uomi's Abel, as she wants to kill Uomi to gain the throne.
- The Corruptor: One of her core powers, notably attempted on Wadanohara to no avail.
- She completely corrupts Sal long before the story takes place, exploiting his insecurities to get into his head with her powers. It's possible she also did this to the other Sea of Death denizens during the original war, since based on her behavior in general, she likely wouldn't have had any reservations in doing so.
- Curb-Stomp Battle: On the receiving end of one from Princess Uomi near the end of the game. She's last seen staggering back through the gate to the Sea of Death covered in wounds, while Uomi doesn't have a scratch on her.
- Cute Is Evil/Cute and Psycho: In a
Creepy Cute way. - Death Equals Redemption: In -Reboot-, when defeated and wounded after her battle with Uomi, she says she had enough of everything and tells Samekichi to put an end to her suffering. He complies.
- Deep Sleep: Because of a connection shared by the sisters, she was put into one when Princess Uomi entered hers.
- Dying as Yourself: In the 2020 Remake she regains her normal speech and expresses regret over her actions before Samekichi kills her.
- Evil Costume Switch: One of the bonus room paintings shows she used to wear blue like her sister.
- Evil Counterpart: To both Princess Uomi, her sister, and to Wadanohara. She is a princess and rules a kingdom like Uomi, but she is a cruel ruler who desires only narcissistic adoration. She is also the leader of her group and partnered with a shark like Wadanohara, but is the main villain to her main hero, and is extremely self-centered and willing to sacrifice the lives of others to get what she wants, whereas Wada is willing to pull a Heroic Sacrifice for the sake of her friends and loved ones.
- It's All About Me: To the extent that when her sister got the throne instead of her, she went ballistic.
- Greater-Scope Villain: Until the last act of the game, she’s a Sealed Evil in a Can, and it’s Sal’s attempts to release her that drive the plot.
- Hopeless Boss Fight: Played with. The first time she's seen in person, she starts a fight, only to stand there and let Wadanohara and company uselessly wail on her for a minute. She never actually bothers to fight back, however.
- Lotus-Eater Machine: Using her Mind Rape powers, she traps Wadanohara in one, although Wadanohara breaks out much faster than expected.
- Mind Rape: Her Dead Sea powers appear to operate this way, as she traps Wadanohara in a gory nightmare world by looking her in the eyes. Sal claims the person her friends know her as will be gone when she wakes up from it.
- Murder the Hypotenuse: A platonic/familial version is her true motive for wanting to kill Uomi — when their father gave Uomi the throne, Mikotsu saw this as her sister getting all the love, and wanted papa all to herself.
- Narcissist: She started the war with her sister and tried to kill her because their father gave Uomi the throne, which Mikotsu took personally. Notably, she never once considered that her father may have chosen Uomi over her for any reason other than that he secretly hated her all along.
- Psychotic Smirk: Her default expression.
- Red and Black and Evil All Over: Wears a red-and-black kimono adorned with bones.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: Has crimson eyes and is extremely unstable.
- Sanity Slippage: She's even worse than she originally was, after years of being painfully sealed away by her own father.
- The Sociopath: Callously manipulates and Mind Rapes her way towards her goal, not showing a single shred of care for anyone who isn't her father. How sociopathic she was prior to being sealed away is debatable, but she was certainly equally as unstable and violent.
- Used to Be a Sweet Kid: Bonus artworks unlocked after beating the game reveals that she was a happy princess with her sister Uomi before everything went downhill. However, unlike Sal, whose original personality was more or less erased and overwritten by Mikotsu, her turn to evil was primarily a result of her own glaring character flaws.
- Sealed Evil in a Can: Long before the story started, she was sealed away along with her followers. This remains the case until the third act of the game.
- Royal Brat: Even worse than Tosatsu, who at least had the excuse of being manipulated, she starts a war and kills millions simply because she felt that daddy did not spoil her enough.
- The Unfavorite: We never learn exactly why the Sea God chose Uomi to take the throne (it may just be because she was older), but Mikotsu sure feels like this as a result.
- The Unfettered: She is absolutely, single-mindedly devoted to seizing the crown, and is not above crossing any moral lines to do so. After God-knows-how-long of being sealed away, her obsession has only gotten worse.
- The Unfought: The only “battle” with her is a Hopeless Boss Fight, and she is never really fought. Instead, Princess Uomi takes care of her offscreen.
- Villainous Princess: She is even worse than Princess Tostasu, as she tricked Tostasu into waging war on Uomi so that she can kill Uomi and retake the throne as she tried to in the past, which resulted in her getting sealed away in the Red Sea, the Eldritch Location she now controls.
- Walking Spoiler: Her existence reveals the fact that Tostasu is not the princess from the legend.
- Worf Had the Flu: After being sealed away for so long, her muscles are severely atrophied and she barely remembers how to fight. Against an opponent who would otherwise be an even match, like Uomi, she stands no chance whatsoever.
- Yandere: Platonically towards her father. He gives Uomi the throne instead of her? Clearly he loves Uomi more than her, so Uomi must die.
- Zero-Effort Boss: She doesn't attack during her boss battle and ends the fight after a few turns.
Old
"...Stupid."
An old shark and former familiar of Wadanohara's father, Meikai. He is Samekichi and Sal's father.- Evil Counterpart: To Meikai. Both are the father to one of the two main heroes, but whereas Meikai is a good father who wants to protect the Blue Sea Kingdom with his life, Old is a Sea of Death denizen who is so absent from the lives of his children that he doesn't even know they're his children.
- Evil Former Friend: To Meikai, whom he betrayed when he joined the Sea of Death.
- Evil Wears Black: Has black hair, is dressed up in dark colours, and is a denizen of the Sea of Death.
- Good Scars, Evil Scars: Is scarred around his eye and on his tail. The facial scars were caused by Tatsumiya.
- It's Personal: Determined to get his revenge on Tatsumiya after she scarred his face using the Sacred Sword.
- Luke, I Am Your Father: He's actually the father of Sal and Samekichi, though apparently nobody is aware of this, not even Old himself.
- Threatening Shark: Fits this a lot more that Samekichi, being a denizen of the Sea of Death.
- Treacherous Advisor: Was Meikai's familiar, but betrayed him sometime before being sealed away with the rest of the Sea of Death.
Tsuribari
"Sigh..."
A bored young boy who died at sea. He has a fishhook embedded in his skull.- Dual Boss: He is fought alongside Stella.
- Evil Counterpart: To Memoca. Both are relatively boyish and serve as a partner to the respective shy girl, but he works for the villains in contrast to the heroic Memoka. Also a Foil since he is much more The Stoic than her.
- Final Boss: The battle with him and Stella is the closest thing to an actual final boss, since the “battle” with Sal is impossible to lose. Even their battle theme sounds more befitting of a final boss than Sal’s.
- Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: A unique example. He was impaled with a fishhook through the head.
- Meaningful Name: His name means Fish Hook.
Stella
"Gloom..."
A quiet, chronically miserable starfish girl.- Dual Boss: She is fought alongside Tsuribari.
- Evil Counterpart: To Dolphi. Both are the shy, quiet girl of the group, but Stella works for the villains, unlike the heroic Dolphi.
- Final Boss: The battle with her and Tsuribari is the closest thing to an actual final boss, since the “battle” with Sal is impossible to lose. Even their battle theme sounds more befitting of a final boss than Sal’s.
- The Eeyore: Described as "chronically miserable."
- Meaningful Name: Stella means “star” in Latin, and she’s a star fish
- Prone to Tears: Due to her constant miserableness.
- The Quiet One: Speaks very little.
- Troubled Child: She’s a young girl, but is said to be “chronically miserable” and works for the Sea of Death.
Sheep
"Mheehee... ♪ "
A nautilus working for the Sea of Death.- Abhorrent Admirer: Towards Old.
- All Love Is Unrequited: Likes Old to the point of obsession, but he clearly does not reciprocate.
- Ambiguous Gender: According to
Word of God, Sheep's gender is explicitly unknown/ambiguous. - Evil Counterpart: To Fukami. Both are tentacled beings in unreciprocated love towards their superiors, but whereas Fukami holds back for Wada’s sake, Sheep does not, instead holding a grudge against Meikai for “stealing” Old away from them.
- Giggling Villain: "Mheehee..."
- Green-Eyed Monster: Their dialogue implies that their grudge against Meikai is because he took Old as his familiar.
- It's Personal: They don't care much about Mikotsu's own motivations; they just have a grudge against Meikai.
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: Has red eyes and is unhealthily obsessed with Old, despite his protests.
Squid
"I'm hungryyy..."
A giant scarred squid who serves the Sea of Death.- Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: It's so big that its height is stated as "huge cm" in its bio.
- Big Eater: Always hungry.
- Combat Tentacles: It's so big that the only thing you get to fight are its tentacles.
- Good Scars, Evil Scars: Has two long, gnarly scars along his head.
