!!5pb./Lyrica

** IF was noticably more rude and hostile in the first game, going through a TookALevelInKindness CharacterDevelopment arc throughout the game, instead of the otherwise friendly DeadpanSnarker OnlySaneMan she would become. She also shows no sign of her later {{Chuunibyou}} tendencies. She was initially reluctant to join the party, too, at first only being a part of it because you aren't allowed to leave one.
** Compa is merely naïve with occasional bouts of wisdom and even a few LittleMissSnarker moments, instead of the [[TheDitz ditzy]] NiceGirl AllLovingHero she would become. She also has a tendency to bring up her grandpa, who is never mentioned again in later games.

'''(This entry primarily consists of her incarnation in ''Superdimension Neptune VS Sega Hard Girls'')'''

* TransplantedCharacterFic: Whereas every other Maker was created for this franchise, Gust (known then as Gust-''chan'') began as the mascot for Gust's online store back in 2000, predating the ''Neptunia'' series by a ''decade''.

A renowned IdolSinger and the host of Hi-Five Radio. 5pb., at first glance, is a confident young girl who loves being in the center of attention. She has an enormous fan following who cheers every time she grabs a microphone, and a track load of records and singles produced and released yearly. When she isn't on the stage, however, she becomes an entirely different person: a shy, introverted girl who isn't good with interacting with others and only sings in private. Her real name is Lyrica.

* CuteAndPsycho: Higurashi can go from a cute, kind, and friendly if absent-minded girl to a raging AxCrazy [[GirlWithPsychoWeapon cleaver-wielding]] [[TheBerserker Berserker]] at moments notice. Appropriate for a character based on the poster child of the trope.

An amnesiac girl who is rescued by IF at the beginning of the game, but can't remember what her previous life was like apart from her name. As a result, she acts noisy, immature and tongue-in-cheek, often throwing insults at her friends when things don't go her way. Despite this, she has a strong sense of loyalty to them, and is determined to get her memories back. She represents Sega, a well-known video game developer known for the ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' franchise and a former console maker.

An excitable girl who loves toy robots and money. After Gamindustri's rewrite, she became the leader of Planeptune, though she proves as averse to adminsitrative work as its original leader Neptune, who quickly befriends B-Sha despite taking her rightful place. She enjoys playing the role of a superhero under the flimsy guise of "Presto Mask" (though rescuees who aren't children are expected to pay up), but suffers from a crippling fear of monsters.

* BirdsOfAFeather: She and Neptune have by far the fastest and easiest friendship of all the CPU-Gold Third pairings, as both are friendly, fun-loving people who don't like working but ''love'' helping others. Neptune's impression of her nominal usurper is helped by finding her Planeptune practically no different from how she left it and seeing B-Sha's earnest if inefectual superheroism. Their relationship is essentially the same as Neptune's with Plutia, except they spend more time playing together than napping. B-Sha even makes it a point to exempt Neptune from [[MoneyFetish her habit of charging people money for everything]].

* MyGreatestFailure: She attempted to make a movie in the past. [[Anime/FinalFantasyTheSpiritsWithin It... didn't go so well]]. [[spoiler: In fact, it almost caused the original S-Sha to die before E-Sha stepped in to take S-Sha's soul into her body]].

* CrashIntoHello: Her first introduction to IF.

* ACupAngst: In Chapter 4, she and Neptune are dismissed by Older and Younger brother due to their small busts, preferring the bustier Vert and Compa. Neptune, in attempt to win their attention, betrays IF and transforms to gain their favor. IF then gets apathetic and grim about her small chest, to the point of calling Vert [[CallBack Thunder Tits]]. Luckily, Vert manages to cheer her up.

* CastingGag: Being a character based on Nippon Ichi, she is appropriately voiced by the woman who worked for their games - Creator/KaoriMizuhashi ([[VideoGame/{{Disgaea}} Laharl, Hanako]], [[VideoGame/PhantomBrave Marona]], [[VideoGame/MakaiKingdom Pram]], [[VideoGame/LaPucelle Culotte]], [[VideoGame/SoulNomadAndTheWorldEaters Shauna]], Asagi[[note]]Only in ''VideoGame/PrinnyCanIReallyBeTheHero''[[/note]]) in Japanese, and Creator/MichelleRuff (Etna[[note]]sans the Atlus-published [=PS2=] version[[/note]], Salvatore, Desco) in English.
