To Love Ru

⸻

Rito Yuuki (結城 リト) • Age: 15-17 (throughout the series) • Hair Color: Brown • Eye Color: Brown • Personality: Rito is kind and sweet and he always cares about people. He is virtuous, righteous, and withholds an incredible deal of respect towards others that surpasses his own idea of self-worth. He is courageous and persistent enough to risk his life to protect his friends well being, like when he protected Lala from her strong bodyguards Maul and Smutts or the hitman Kuro, saved Haruna from Ghi Bree and stood up to his deceptively monstrous form, traveled to a dangerous planet to find a cure for Celine when she was sick, and tried to save Rin from Bladix's control and broke her free from it, nearly having his own mind being taken.

Rito is especially caring and considerate towards women in particular, as he has shown disgust multiple times towards the concept of assaulting girls in any way (though he once violently threw Momo off his bed), and refuses to take advantage of and/or demean them intentionally, even if they give him permission to do so, unless it is absolutely necessary (such as when he had to bring Yami back to her old self when she was in her Darkness Form). Despite whatever struggles may come his way, he never gives up on those in danger. For these reasons, Lala stated that he's "the most dependable person in the universe". Rito also tends to help out those who dislike him, such as Yami, before she developed feelings for him, like when she was sick from over-using her powers and he carried her to Mikado's clinic. He has also shown his sympathy for her when he learned of her past, and expressed anger towards the organization that created and raised her to become a weapon, going as far as to say he will never "forgive them".

Being a normal boy, though, he initially can also easily and somewhat frequently lose his temper and snap at people when annoyed by their actions or words, even when he doesn't mean to. At first, he has shown to be angry and upset with Lala quite often, since he does have to put up with a lot of her hijinks, and even punched Ren in the face for thoughtlessly ruining what could have been a moment between him and Haruna, as well as for accidentally kissing him. His humble nature, in turn, can often have low self esteem about himself, building off of his rare short fuse. He rarely gives himself credit for his good deeds, tends to dwell on his mistakes more than anything when sad, hardly ever speaks up for or voices himself and, in general, doesn't do anything to truly stand up for himself.

His personality as a kind and loyal friend makes him quite trustworthy, and very persuasive which enables him to sway and befriend other people. Girls tend to feel a certain "warmth" when close to him or when he comforts them. He is a very charismatic person, always trying to make people feel better and understand others' points of view and changing it to a more positive outlook. He cares for plants and animals, as shown when he was the only one who didn't neglect to care for the school flowers, and when he rescued a cat from a tree, both of which persuaded Haruna and Yui that he is really a kind person.

Unfortunately, while girls appreciate and cherish his innocent nature, his innocence is arguably one of his worst traits. He rejects sexual pleasure often due to his nervous and celibacy-filled nature towards it, and he easily loses his composure around provocative situations being pushed into his face due to a moral sense of chivalrous respect for the opposite sex. As a result, he has grown to become very clumsy and shy around women, often getting flustered when faced with sudden upfront, erotic situations either out of guilt, unsure panic, confusion, or all three. Due to his unique clumsiness, his flustered reactions always lead to accidentally violating them in absurdly over-the-top ways. For these reasons, he is either regarded by other girls as an innocent boy and suitable love interest, or as an insolent boy and 'pervert', though never anything worse than this.

While sleeping, Rito acts as what Momo describes as a true Harem King. He has dreams about ice creams and marshmallows, and starts to grope and lick those who are sleeping next to him (mostly Momo), thinking them as marshmallows and/or ice cream. He even was about to kiss Momo, but she stopped him telling him their first kiss must be of his free will.

He seems to start getting more interested in sexual activities as seen in Darkness Chapter 73 where he has a dream about pushing Momo down and grabbing her breasts on purpose, while it actually was Lala in his futon at the time. • Background: Originally just an ordinary high schooler, Rito’s life takes a dramatic turn when Lala Satalin Deviluke, a runaway alien princess, crashes into his bathtub and declares that she wants to marry him. From then on, Rito’s life is filled with chaos, misunderstandings, and romantic entanglements with various girls from Earth and beyond. • Abilities: While Rito has no superpowers, he has an almost supernatural level of bad luck that frequently lands him in compromising positions. Later in the series, he demonstrates strong resolve and even fights to protect those he loves.

⸻

Lala Satalin Deviluke (ララ・サタリン・デビルーク) • Age: 16-17 • Hair Color: Pink • Eye Color: Green • Appearance Lala is a highly attractive and curvaceous teenage girl with long bubble gum pink hair, emerald green eyes, and large breasts. She is often referred to as a perfect girl. Her most distinguishing feature is her tail which extends down from the base of her back. Her tail is long, thin, and ends with a heart-shaped tip. Another feature is that she is almost always seen wearing a hair clip with thick black swirls circling once then pointing downward. This is her robot companion Peke who actually forms the clothes she is currently wearing. At the beginning of the series she is almost always seen in her costume robot Peke's "Dress Form", in what can only be called an enlarged version of Peke herself. Wanting to fit in more with the people of earth, she now has Peke dress her in various earth clothing; she has also bought herself a large number of earth clothes to wear when Peke is out of energy.

According to Risa, Lala's measurements are B89-W57-H87, making her one of the bustiest characters in the series.

Breast envy Lala and Yui seen as "Perfect Beauties" by envious Haruna.

Lala together with Yui are often idolized by other girls on school for their beautiful figures and for having two of the biggest busts in school. They are so attractive that they are seen as perfect beauties, which even make relatively normal sized girls, like Haruna, to feel inferior. Ironically, they both are mostly oblivious to their appearance.

From chapters 44 to 56 of To Love-Ru Darkness, Lala was temporary turned into a small child-like version of herself due to using too much of her power, similar to her father. Until she completely returned to normal, her body gradually aged up in 2-3 year increments.

Personality She is incredibly enthusiastic about the smallest things and has a very bubbly and slightly childish nature, which is most likely the result of being raised as the first princess of Deviluke. Although she can also be a bit of an air-head and a scatterbrain most of the time, she is known for her genius-level intellect as seen in her amazing array of inventions; her planet even wanted to use her for weapons research and engineering. She is very caring and generous and appears to have a need to make everyone she cares about happy, even those of which she doesn't have any real relationship with, such as her teacher. This trait, along with her vast intellect, is obviously one she inherited from her mother. She is very naive about earth culture and will often make highly dangerous mistakes by either accident or serious miscommunication.

Despite her naturally cheerful and somewhat childish nature, Lala is not as emotionally immature as she would appear. She has, on rare occasions, become upset and angry at other characters, even Rito, over serious issues. One incident in particular involved her spending the night with Haruna because Rito had yelled at her, which made her doubt if her affections would ever be reciprocated (Chapter 31). A few episodes in the first season of the To Love-Ru anime have also shown her get angry at Rito; examples include Episode 12 (where Rito kept staring at his card and doing nothing) and Episode 18 (where she was angered over Rito and Saruyama eating lunch "lazily").

She also sometimes is known to lust over Rito. One great demonstration of her emotional maturity was when, during the Trouble Quest incident, her sisters tried to force Rito to admit his feelings for her, but upon seeing the stress he was under, stopped them after having already found out that he does like her in some way. After this, Lala noticed that Rito was under a lot of stress due to his confession in front of Haruna. Lala later admits to Rito that she could sense that he was upset, Lala felt very upset and guilty due to the fact that it was her sisters who caused Rito's confession. After a talk with Haruna and another talk with Lala, Rito felt better (Chapter 99).

As a child, Lala led a very mixed lifestyle, having the company of her robots, sisters, and Ren/Run. However, she also underwent something of a refusal to have a real childhood. Having a mother that was almost never around, constantly having to be taught things she had no interest in against her will, and being 'raised' by her father, who never spent any time with her, she greatly longed for a pent-up need to express herself creatively and happily to overcome such underwhelming and even traumatic instances, which more than likely resulted in her very cheerful, very upbeat personality she never seems to let go of.

She has also shown an amazing level of compassion for other characters, beyond simply being charitable or helpful. One example of this is when Haruna admitted to her that she is also in love with Rito, Lala not only moved out of his cupboard in favour of a joint house in the roof with her sisters but also stopped throwing herself at Rito to hug him in order to be fair to Haruna and make it easier for her. Another example is when Lala and her sisters were younger and fought each other, Lala would often leave her inventions around so that they would settle their differences and work together, even though it would result in Lala getting lectured by Zastin.

On some occasions, Lala will say something ironic in relation to her own decisions. For instance, telling Saki not to run away from home, or telling Momo not to sneak into someone's bed when they are sleeping, hinting at a small piece of hypocrisy in her.

Due to never really been alone her entire life, she has no notion of modesty and often casually walks around the house completely naked, not caring who sees her. In more recent times, however, she has gotten better at knowing where and when not to be naked, though she still makes a habit of walking out of the bathroom naked when she needs something. It can be pointed out that although Lala holds no real issue with appearing naked around people, more so in recent times, she is in no way perverted or in any way interpreting the action as sexual. She actually is, for one, very bashful when it comes to being touched or viewed in a sexual way or from any overly compromising angle. Rito found out about this after she landed on top of him when they were on their way to save Celine and was for once incredibly embarrassed about this. However, while she has no sexual intentions, Lala seems to take some amusement from making Rito blush and panic, a sight which she has declared 'cute' more than once. She has a habit of sleeping naked, with or without Rito by her side.

She is also incredibly optimistic. A good example of this is at the end of To Love-ru (original), Rito confesses to Lala that he loves her and that he loves Haruna too, she just says to marry both of them and being completely okay with a concubine. Later in the chapter, Rito accidentally says "I love you" to almost the entire female cast she is even more ecstatic, saying that he can marry everyone.

In To Love Ru: Darkness, Lala has seemed to mature slightly, though she still will walk around the house naked at times and continue her other usual tendencies. Lala and Rito seem to have a much better friendship, especially due to the fact that Rito confessed his love to her. However, she also constantly tries to push Rito into confessing to Haruna as well, so the three of them may get married, Lala has even put her feelings aside until then, she no longer clings to him very often. As the series progresses, Rito realized that it is bad of him to treat Lala as if she's an insurance to his love with Haruna and even starts to consider Lala's offer of marrying both of them, which he constantly shakes off.

With some encouragement from Momo, Lala starts showing her love towards Rito like she did before as her old childish clingy self, but Momo showed her some love simulation game to teach her how to express her love in a more adult way. Afterwards, she warped to him while he was taking a bath and asked to try a kiss.

Despite her childish personality and immaturity, it has been stated by Momo and felt by Rito that Lala has an "overwhelming impish aura," with Momo wondering just how strong it would be if Lala ever found out what happens after a kiss. (To Love-Ru Darkness chapter 35) Lala is widely considered to be a deredere (one who is loving, hyper, kind, and affectionate).

History Young-Lala Little Lala

As the first daughter of King Gid and Queen Sephie of Deviluke, Lala was born the first princess of the planet Deviluke. She has two known siblings, the twins Nana and Momo, whom she is very close to. As a child she was friends with the Memorze royal Run/Ren, though she seemed to prefer Run, who she used to unknowingly torment. She is known to have a rather pleasant relationship with her father, as she warmly recalled to Rito of a time that she was lost in the forests of Deviluke and how her father found her and took her back to the palace on his back. It was not long after then that she built Peke, the costume robot which allowed her to fly and gave her a permanent friend to always be with. As the first princess and presumed eventual successor to the throne of Deviluke, it appears that she must marry so that both she and her spouse can rule together. As such, she was continuously presented with male suitors, all of whom she has turned down. When she finally couldn’t take it any longer, she escaped from her home, but some men chased her out of panic she warped to Earth so that she could have some freedom and temporary safety. • Abilities: Devilukean/Charmian Hybrid Physiology: Being a hybrid between Devilukean and Charmian, Lala has gained capabilities of the two races. As a Devilukean descendant, Lala's physical abilities such as strength, power and speed are far greater than any known race, although overusing her power would cause her to change into a child-like form. She has also inherited some traits from her Charmian mother.

Page16 Lala firing a laser beam to Yami

Superhuman Strength: Her physical strength (without any inventions or powers) is pure brute force to the point where one punch can cause a shockwave and create a small crater on a wall without making physical contact to it. Superhuman Speed: Lala has also shown to be able to run incredibly fast, such being able to run 100 meters in 10.9 seconds. Superhuman Durability: She has also shown to withstand heavy attacks with little to no injury. This also counts internally, as when she ate one of Run's really spicy sandwiches and it didn't even phase her. Devilukean Tail: She can fire laser beams from the tip of her tail. However, her tail is both her weapon and her weakness, for it is very sensitive. When someone touches Lala's tail, she becomes weak and seems to lose her strength (and perhaps has an erotic feeling), though she can shake anyone off of her tail by mustering enough strength. ToLoveRu v02 147 Lala vs. typhoon

Sonic Scream: Lala has enough power in her breath to clear an entire sky. For example, when Japan was going to be hit with a very large typhoon, Lala went to the typhoon and screamed at it out of frustration for it ruining her plans with Rito. The result was enough force to blow away an entire typhoon away from Japan, which could even be seen from space. Enhanced Metabolism: A trait Lala inherits from her mother, no matter how much she eats, Lala can never gain weight or get any fatter. Genius-level Intelligence: Despite her childish personality, Lala's intellect is perhaps one of her most notable abilities, due to constantly creating extraordinary inventions and redesigning other material objects. Lala has been considered a genius since she was a child, even being able to disassemble war ships.

Swordsmanship: Lala has shown to be quite skilled in swordsmanship with the use of her almighty tool in sword form, as she is able to counter Yami's attacks until her sword breaks in Darkness chapter 43. ⸻

Haruna Sairenji (西連寺 春菜) • Age: 15-17 • Hair Color: Dark Blue • Eye Color: Blue • Personality: Appearance Haruna has blue hair and purple eyes, she has quite a cute complexion which most boys seem to like. She always wears a red vertical hair clip on the left of her head.

According to Sawada Mio, Haruna's measurements are B79-W56-H82. Despite being considered physically attractive for a girl her age, she often feels inferior being surrounded by girls like Lala and Yui, who are far more developed physically.

Personality A highly responsible person, Haruna's personality can sway her classmate's hearts to vote for her as their class representative, even when she did not run as a candidate.

Haruna is also a very kind, understanding and patient person, to the point that she's polite to everyone around her, especially to Rito. Despite his perverted clumsiness, she always forgives him in time. However, she does occasionally slap him for it out of fear, even though she is fully aware that he does not do it on purpose, but she forgives him very quickly.

In the beginning, she had feelings for Rito, but did not express them until she started hanging out with Lala, after which she started showing signs of jealousy. This did not prevent her from becoming good friends with Lala. Once when she was intoxicated off of Deviluke herbs, she couldn't help but cling on to Rito (while half naked and wet) and said that he's all hers for the moment (Darkness Chapter 26).

Haruna secretly enjoys Rito's kindness; one time he found her when she had been turned into a cat by one of Lala's inventions and, unaware that it was Haruna, started playing with her, which she claimed was like being in heaven. It is her genuine wish to be with Rito, though her shyness and Rito's clumsiness stand as the obstacles for her to advance.

As the series continues, she begins to fantasize the moment where she found herself being with Rito romantically, but quickly shakes them off and blushes. It is hinted that Haruna is a perverted girl as well, because she even thinks about ecchi moments with Rito in secret.

She has a severe fear of ghosts and the supernatural with the exception being Oshizu Murasame, but only for a while. When frightened, she has a habit of grabbing the nearest thing around her – typically Rito – and swinging wildly, in an attempt to get rid of whatever frightens her.

History When Haruna was 13, her parents moved because of her father getting a job in another city. However, she and her older sister stayed behind because they didn't want to leave their home in Sainan.

In eighth grade, Haruna was in the same class as Rito, which has been stated to be the last time that Haruna and Rito were classmates (prior to the start of the series). Haruna first took notice of his existence when he won the school festival for his class. One time when the school garden was vandalized, Rito, who was caught on the scene was mistakenly presumed to be the guilty party. Haruna, knowing how much he cares for his own garden, was the only one who believed in his innocence. Unknown to her, Rito overheard her defense of him and was touched by her belief in him, which was the origin of his feelings for her.

Powers and Abilities Ch58 pg10 With sword Rito in hand, Haruna remains undefeated in combat.

Imm​ense Strength: Even though she seems shy and weak, she has more strength in her than everyone thinks she has, which is occasionally revealed rather comically. Her strength is often shown when she is in a state of panic or frightened of something, and she becomes capable of lifting, swinging and throwing an actual person (mainly Rito) and knocking and fighting back the thing she's scared of. Tennis Skill: Haruna is quite skilled in tennis, as she is a member of the tennis team and club. Improvising: She is also good at improvising, like when she and her friends were inside the virtual reality game Trouble Quest, she skillfully used a sword, comparing it to how she uses a tennis racket, or using an actual person as weapon when bare-handed. Natural Leader: She has also shown to have great leadership skills and is able to keep everyone calm when they are panicking.

Momo Belia Deviluke (モモ・ベリア・デビルーク) • Age: 15 • Hair Color: Pink (darker than Lala’s) • Eye Color: Pink • Appearance Momo has short pink hair and purple eyes. In the To LOVE-Ru manga, Momo's hair was frizzy, but in the beginning of To LOVE-Ru Darkness she straightened her hair out in hopes that Rito would see her as more mature. She also has two small flowers on her hair. Like all Devilukeans, Momo has a long black tail at her back, and like her sisters, she has a spade-shaped tail end. Momo also has a bigger bust than Nana, which the latter sometimes envies. When Momo turns into "evil Momo", she acquires a short fang similar to Nana's except that Nana's fang is on her left side while Momo's is on her right side. Her pupils also become thinner and pointed.

According to the official databook, Momo's measurements were B78-W54-H78 in the original manga. In To LOVE-Ru: Darkness, the Venus Momo Club members estimated her measurements to be B80-W54-H79 which is later confirmed[1].

Personality While other characters would describe her as sweet, kindhearted and innocent, the real Momo is above all else highly perverted, a side of herself which she doesn't show to others much, with the exception of Rito, whom she loves and lusts for. She often fantasizes perverted situations with Rito even if it's him with another girl, and desires for him to become sexually active towards her. Sometimes, whenever Momo gets caught up in the moment of imagining an ecchi situation with Rito and some other girl, she has a tendency to drool. She often sneaks into his bed at night half naked to sleep with him because, in his sleep, he becomes much more frisky and physically active than he is aware of. She is essentially the complete polar opposite of Rito Yuuki.

She seems to enjoy physical pleasure so much that it's difficult to determine whether or not she is mistaking lust for love. One of the main reasons that she fell in love with Rito is because she loves his unintentional lustful tendencies which he shows when asleep. She doesn't care if she is not Rito's favorite lover, and is perfectly satisfied being one of many partners, and hopes that Rito's other love interests are also as willing to compromise and share their love for Rito. She even tempted Rito with an offer of his own "flower garden of girls". Nonetheless, whatever way she interprets love, she at least takes it seriously. She is not willing to show her lustful side to anyone or be groped by anyone except Rito. She turned down the chance to be accidentally kissed by Rito in his sleep, wanting to receive a kiss from him only when he wants to.

However, after her mother visits her and questions her if her heart is fine with her plan, Momo begins to see her own Harem Plan in a more logical perspective. While she convinces herself that she would be perfectly content with being a part of Rito's harem, she is now showing obvious signs of reluctance and doubting if she would be truly happy with sharing Rito with all of the other girls.

She is very caring towards plants, due to her ability to communicate with them, and treats them as her friends and should the situation be fit to their abilities, her tools and weapons. In fact she notes one of the reasons she fell for Rito was his kindness towards Celine and the plants in his garden, after which she only progressively falls deeper in love with him, which gradually goes from teasing him, to sleeping in his bed, to conducting the Harem Plan all to secure her place beside him.

Momo is also known for her haraguro tendencies, which some characters who truly know her would describe to be the real Momo. She is generally sweeter than her twin sister, but develops a bad attitude whenever Nana takes credit for something they do. She also shows a darker and more sinister side of herself whenever her friends are in trouble, and she becomes more mischievous and hostile. Some examples of this are when Nana and Yami were in trouble on Planet Mistletoe, when the VMC planned to beat up Rito, and when Yami, Mikan and Rito were threatened by Azenda. People have generally stated that Momo becomes very scary when this occurs. Momo calls this her battle state, a state which Yami and Mea have noted that she has a tremendous amount of bloodlust.

Although she can be rather perverse and even selfish with her desires on occasions, she is still a very kind person to those she cares about and is willing to do anything to make them happy, including helping Rito choose more than one woman when he obviously cares about so many. Many of her perverted antics, while also being for her own enjoyment, are more often than not done to titillate and arouse Rito out of love and lust at the same time. She's even willing to go to the extent of being absolutely protective over others, like when she made it her current goal at a time to make sure Rito wasn't harmed by Yami, and threatening the VMC to let Rito go and apologize to him after beating him up and promising to do worse.

Momo occasionally fiddles with her hair when thinking over important situations concerning either Nemesis or her Harem plan, which she would seem very serious about.

Like Rito, she also has an interest in playing video games, most notably when buying love sim games for ideas for her "harem plan".

History Ever since childhood, Momo and Nana always argued. Whenever they fight, their older sister, Lala, would always arrange ways for them to make up, and for Zastin not to be angry with them. An example of this is when they were children, and Momo and Nana were fighting, but Lala caused her inventions to run amok then asked for Momo and Nana's help to catch them, so that Momo and Nana will work together, and Zastin would scold Lala instead.

At some point, Momo travelled through space and met tons of plants she befriended due to her ability to talk to them.

Powers and abilities Momo TLRD EP4 04 Momo's Canon Flower.

Devilukean/Charmain Hybrid Physiology: Like all Devilukeans, Momo physical abilities are incredibly strong. Momo also has a hidden side to her known as "Evil Momo" (which she calls it her "battle mode"), in this state she has tremendous bloodlust, making her dangerous in battle. Despite her true power hasn't been shown in any battle yet, Nana seems to be scared of this side of Momo. Yami and Nemesis are also aware of her hidden power.

However, her most notable ability is communicating with all plant life. It is revealed that this is a result of being of Charmian descent.

Superhuman Strength: as a Devilukean, Momo possesses incredible strength. TLRD V6 CH24 P143 Tail shot.

Devilukean Tail: She also has the ability to fire lightning out from the tip of her tail, when using this ability in tandem with with Nana's, it creates an even more powerful lighting shot. Like her sisters, Momo also becomes weak whenever someone touches her tail (however, given her personality, she apparently enjoys it as it has an erotic feeling to it). Botanical Communication: An ability unique only to Momo. She shares a connection to plant life since she was born, being able to communicate with them. Expert Xenobotanist and Horticulturalist: Momo's ability to understand plant life allows her to become an expert botanist. She understands the biology and chemistry of most plant life in the galaxy, and the abilities and effects of their spores, pollens and other characteristics. She maintains her own interplanetary garden, which she is able to access through her d-dial phone to call any of her plants and use their abilities for varying purposes, including combat. Intelligence: Momo also has a great intellect and an aptitude with her sister Lala's technology, like creating the virtual world video game Trouble Quest, programming a cyber safari for Nana, and generating an invisible barrier. In terms of technology, she is not as smart as Lala, but far more than Nana. She is especially knowledgeable with the biology of most plant-life in the galaxy.

Acting: She's also proven to be a very good actress, managing to fool Rito while in Nana's body that 'Nana' was attracted to him and wanted make sure he liked her despite her breast size. Most notably, she manages to trick everyone into thinking she is a sweet and innocent girl.

Nana Astar Deviluke (ナナ・アスタ・デビルーク) • Age: 15 • Hair Color: Light Brown/Pinkish-orange • Eye Color: Blue • Appearance Nana has long pink hair and violet eyes. In both To LOVE-Ru and To LOVE-Ru Darkness, Nana usually wears her hair in pigtails on the sides of her head. She sometimes loosens the pigtails such as after bathing or when wearing casual clothes.

Like all Devilukeans, Nana has a long black tail on her back, and like her sisters, she has a spade-shaped tail tip. Nana also has a smaller chest than Momo, which Momo teases her about. When Nana fights, her pupils become thinner and more pointed. Another interesting note is that she has a pointed fang on the left side of her upper teeth, making her the only Devilukean princess to have a pointed fang in her mouth.

Nana wears a unique outfit consisting of a black collar with yellow ornamentation, a sleeveless dress with sleeves reaching down to her armpits, thigh-high socks with black and red stripes, and black shoes. The outfit generally features black and red colors, as opposed to her twin sister, Momo, whose outfit features black and green colors.

She wears the Sainan High uniform when she attends classes. In the early chapters of To Love-Ru Darkness, she also wears black socks and the yellow vest like Momo and other students, but later she does not wear the vest over the uniform and changes her socks to white, loose and shorter.

Personality "You Beast!" ―Nana to Rito Nana seems short-tempered, impatient, and somewhat tomboyish, much unlike her twin sister, Momo. But underneath her brash, overactive, and angry behavior, Nana is actually very kind, helpful, cheerful, and even adorable. She has an open, sincere, and somewhat childlike side that cherishes her friendship very much, which also makes her easily heartbroken when those relations were ever lost or betrayed, such as with Mea, whom she considers her first true and intimate friend.

Despite her tomboyish personality and temper, Nana has the vague charm that has even impressed some of the most mindless of individuals. Mea is an excellent example of this; When Nana was talking about how the two birds were going to fly west, Mea was astonished and amused when she found out that Nana could talk to animals, being fully accepting of this odd trait. Before, Mea has been just a mindless being that was sent to Earth. Before she met Nana, Mea was following Nemesis's orders without question. Thanks to Nana's "charm", Mea has opened up her mind and has become best friends with Nana.

She can be very brave whenever her friends are in trouble, such as when she risks her own life just to save Haruna and her dog, when Mea is trying to scare her away, or when a little monkey is about to get hit by a truck.

Nana hates to be teased by Momo because of her flat chest. While Momo possesses a developed figure similar to their elder sister and mother, Nana is far less developed and is very sensitive about her breasts. Momo passively and playfully teases her about it, but Nana occasionally becomes upset and even hurt about it. She has also been described as something of 'uncareful', as she was apparently the kind of child who would often break her toys by mistake, and even still manages to get most of her belongings, and sometimes other people's, disjointed or improperly used.

Nana apparently dislikes anything lewd and impure, mostly referring to Rito and calling him a beast because of his bad habits. However, she initially didn't know what sexual intercourse actually was, often thinking about how baby animals kept showing up on her virtual safari. After being told of the process, her reaction became a source of teasing for Mea. Originally, Nana was one of the few girls who didn't have any feelings for Rito, but eventually, his kindness starts to grow on her, as he helped her rebuild her friendship with Mea and hugged her in the process, which she remembered felt very good. Because of this, Nana has developed complex feelings when it comes to Rito. Sometimes when she is denying something, she makes a certain outburst, mostly involving Rito, meanwhile, her pigtails seem raised. She becomes extremely jealous when a girl approaches to him and if Momo teases her by telling her she loves him, she gets angry and denies it, which reflects her tsundere character.

Nana slightly matures over the series, as pointed out by Momo, and grudgingly notes that Nana might be surpassing her. When Lala was attempting to kiss Rito, Nana advises her that Rito has some complicated thing he needs to deal with first before the kiss. This shows that Nana has some concern over how Rito might be feeling. And because she avoids and denies love most of the time, she has taken more time to think about and examine her own feelings more carefully, which gives her a better understanding of how Rito feels about his complicated relationships at the present, and she may understand love better than even Momo. She does, however, think that couples are supposed to kiss AFTER they are married.

Even so, she does seem to be quite shy and graceful at times in necessary, most likely due to being educated as a princess.

In Nana's past, she tended to make her unique way other than ordinary means. This can be seen in her artistic skills which do not seem very good. Because of her attitude to neglect learning in the lessons, she went to a, unique way to develop her own style.

She is very caring towards animals due to her ability to talk to them.

Powers and Abilities Devilukean/Charmian Hybrid Physiology: Like all Devilukeans, Nana's physical skills are greater than any known race. Her's in particular, because Nana can be very athletic, as she is very good at sports, even being asked to join Sainan High's swimming club. Nana also possesses the Devilukean's super strength and their bloodlust, making her very dangerous in battle. However, her most notable ability is communicating with all animal life, it is revealed that this is a result of having Charmian descendants from her mother mixed with her Devilukean blood.

Superhuman Strength: As a Devilukean, Nana possesses incredible strength, even able to throw an actual person (often Rito) a great distance. Nana Tail attack v2 Devilukean Tail: Like her sisters, she also has the ability to shoot lightning out from the tip of her tail, when using this ability in tandem with with Momo's, it creates an even more powerful lighting shot. Also like her sisters, Nana also becomes weak whenever someone touches her tail. This weakness is usually taken advantage of by Momo whenever they get into fight. Intelligence: Nana is not the smartest, but she is knowledgeable of animals in the galaxy. Interestingly, she has a degree of intelligence, such as understanding Rito's feelings. Zoolingualism: An ability unique only to Nana. She shares a connection to animal life since she was born, being able to communicate with them, though this doesn't seem to be the case with animals with low intellect. Expert Xenoecologist: Compared to both her sisters (and perhaps most characters), Nana is the least smart in comparison, even in Earth history. However, she is an expert on most animal biodiversity in the galaxy. She is very knowledgeable in the habitats and lifestyles of many species in the galaxy, and is able to customize and maintain the ecosystem in her cyber safari so that all her different pets from various alien sources can co-exist together. Strangely, she was unaware of where babies come from until recently. Strong Will Power: She has great willpower since she is the only person able to resist Mea's Psycho Dive which is shown twice. ⸻

Yami / Golden Darkness (金色の闇) • Real Name: Eve • Age: Looks 14-15 (actual age unknown) • Hair Color: Blonde • Eye Color: Golden • Appearance Yami has long blonde hair, dark red eyes, and a child-like figure. Her 3-sizes are B75-W52-H77. Although it should be noted that she can change her appearance to look older with her transformation ability, her choice to remain in her child-like form is most likely due to the fact that it is comfortable when in combat. This can be seen in both the manga and OVA where she wonders on whether or not having larger breasts and a more mature body would affect her balance. Characters have made several notes about the shape of her thighs throughout a few points in the manga—most notably the principal, who makes the remark during their first meeting. Of course, this was all before they were pummeled by none other than Yami herself.

She is well known for her all-black Gothic-style signature leather outfit. Her outfit has a star shaped gap at the chest of her clothing, which can also be found on the clothing of Mea and Nemesis. It also features two waist belts, five-leg belts on both of her legs, and two sleeves that attach to her upper arm via belt.

Another notable aspect of her appearance are her silver and black hair clips on each side of her head which give her a cat-like appearance, possibly paying homage to the illustrator's earlier work, "Black Cat", from which her character design also originated.

When the Darkness Transformation was activated, her appearance (mostly her attire) drastically changed. She donned a much more revealing leather outfit with red sharp claws on each of her fingers. Two black horns appeared on her head.

Personality "I hate ecchi people." ―Yami's view on perverted things

ToLoveRuDarkness-Bangaihen11 16 Yami is afraid of slimy things.

Though she does come off as stoic, emotionless, and withdrawn in actuality she is pretty kind, but she would attack people who talks about something that she doesn't like. She also hates perverted people and normally attacks Rito (despite knowing its not his intention), who by his clumsy nature trips into her and gropes her, or the Principal, whose perverted nature makes him come running to her in almost no clothing whenever he sees her. Other people she has attacked include Saruyama Kenichi, Kotegawa Yū, and Motemitsu Taizō. She also has a weakness towards anything slimy and with tentacles. She is a mayadere.

Yami is often reading books to understand Earth's culture and learn more about emotions such as love. She had been contracted to kill Rito, but after their initial meeting she chose to 'assess' him. Since chapter 158, she has begun showing small inklings of feelings towards him for not taking advantage of her while affected by Celine's pollen.

In To Love-Ru Darkness, Yami's feelings for Rito are shown quite a few times. He shows kindness to her, and because of this she's not sure about her feelings or whether she really wants to kill him but tries to convince herself that he is still her target. Strangely, he is the only person she has ever opened up to about her origin and about her old life before being an assassin, instead of to her closest friend Mikan, which is also something that confuses herself. One time she looked at him from behind holding a book titled "lovers", further hinting her feelings for him.

She has a fondness of taiyaki, which was the first she eats after coming to earth which was also given to her by Rito, shortly before her attempt to assassinate him. It's stated that since becoming an assassin, Yami has never slept with a calm mind (her body always "standing" on guard), but she appears to have slept calmly ever since she slept next to Rito (Darkness Chapter 13).

In the beginning, Yami wasn't always heartless and cold. Before she became an assassin, she was a happy, cheerful and playful little child, especially around Tearju, but was left heartbroken when hearing that she had left and Yami was left in the hands of the organization, Eden that made her the mostly emotionless person she is today. If she had not been raised by Eden, she would have likely had a similar personality to Mea. However, as the series progresses, she begins to show a more happy and gentle side from time to time and opens up more around others especially Rito, whom she shows love/hate feelings to.

Since Tearju's arrival, Yami has remained distant towards her, although she still cares for her greatly. The real reason for this was because of her life as an assassin and what she became after they last met, she was afraid of the awkwardness between them. She once admit herself that being an assassin is even worse than "being a pervert like you". But with some encouragement from Rito and Mea, Yami slowly tries to become closer to Tearju. Yami is shown to evidently be shy, constantly avoiding mushy moments and Tearju, whom she still feels awkward towards.

After she returns from her Darkness transformation, Yami's personality displays significant changes. While she is still mostly her usual self, she now has stronger tsundere tendencies, mostly regarding Rito. She has become much more angry and over-reactive when it comes to her feelings for Rito, whom she continues to deny having any feelings for. She also appears to be less stoic around Mikan, her best friend.

At the end of To Love-Ru Darkness chapter 70, she accepted her feelings and told Mikan about her love for Rito and at the end of chapter 71, she commenced in a fight with Kuro in order to save Rito's life. She finally managed to defeat him by destroying his Gun. And after the battle, Yami at last confessed her feelings to Rito.

Darkness "I feel really perverted." ―Darkness

Shameless angel When the Darkness Transformation is activated, Yami's personality changes quite drastically. In fact it can be inferred that her personality becomes the complete opposite of her normal one in that she becomes hyperactive, perverted, and less bothered by slimy things. Her feelings for Rito, which she would regularly try to hide, are laid so out in the open that it becomes a complete and total obsession.

She is shown to be more playful and enjoys "ecchi" things. Yami seems to be more than openly infatuated with Rito, wanting him to do more perverted things to her. She has absolutely no problem admitting she loves Rito, and yet, as he is her "target", she still intends to kill him. In fact, she constantly believes that by killing him, he will then be in her heart forever and they will become one, which she describes as the most ecchi thing possible. However, she acknowledges that for him, this reality is one of being chewed up and swallowed like taiyaki. She thus uses her newfound powers to manipulate matter and prepared the most fitting place for the "ecchi him" to die as tribute. She also expresses disappointment, at best, when he is taken away from her. She is so fond of the "ecchi him" that she says that a Rito who is not ecchi would be like taiyaki without the red bean paste filling.

Because of her newfound fondness towards anything "ecchi," she doesn't hesitate use her powers to do something lewd to others and herself even during battles. Her trauma towards anything slimy and with tentacles seems to have transformed into delight and become weaponized in this form, as seen when she created tentacles to molest Lala as well as herself and used water to molest a large number of students in a swimming pool.

She appears to be incredibly obsessed with Rito, to the point where all of her transformations seem to start assuming his form. She also has nothing but murderous emotion towards Lala, as she believes Rito's fiancée would naturally be her biggest enemy. Finally, when she is unable to retrieve Rito from Lala, she decided to destroy the entire planet, and Rito along with it, and playfully calls him hers in the process.

Originally, her personality was emotionless with the destructive impulses and instinct of plunging the universe into chaos. The cause of her new ecchi personality in this form might be because of the memories of being sexually harassed by Rito, but even she is not sure how she ended up this way. Mea speculates that Rito's actions caused a "bug" to occur in the program, which ultimately allowed Yami to resist its complete takeover, ironically Mea also believes that aggravating this "bug" further is the solution to allowing Yami's true personality to resurface and crash the program entirely, in other words the only solution is for Rito to "subdue" her by intentionally harassing her instead of by accident, because it's something even she would not expect from him. Ironically, when he does indeed take the offensive as above, Darkness becomes quite weak against Rito, ultimately crashing the program completely.

It is revealed by Mea that the "bug" is in fact caused by Yami's feelings towards Rito. After reverting to normal, however, she still continued to deny having any feelings for him until Darkness Chapter 70.

At the end of Darkness Chapter 71, it is shown that she now has the ability to activate the Darkness transformation out of her own will. However, this Darkness transformation is different as her wing are white and she has full control of her personality. She can also transform instantly. Despite the differences between her last transformation, she still retains her perverted attire.

History Images tear Young Yami in Dr.Tearju's care.

Not much of Golden Darkness' history was known until she opened up to Rito. She is a living weapon created by Dr. Tearju Lunatique from her own cells (making Yami a clone) who named her Eve and raised her. Eve was a happy little girl who looked up to Tearju who would read her bedtime stories and cook. Despite the food turning out poorly, Eve would still force herself to eat it. They lived happily and Tearju planned to run away with Eve but her plans were preempted by the Eden organization which found out about the planned flight and attempted to kill Tearju, forcing her to flee without Eve. Eve, who had just finished making a necklace for Tearju, was then told that Tearju had abandoned her and she would be trained as a weapon. It is then that she was renamed Golden Darkness. Eden was destroyed by the hitman Kuro, setting Eve free of their control. After Eden was destroyed, Tearju heard rumors about a golden-haired assassin and knew it had to be Eve. Tearju started searching for Eve but was unable to find her (they meet again only in To-Love-Ru Darkness).

To-love-ru-149-14 Yami and Kuro.

Before she met Rito and Lala, Yami lived alone in the universe, performing assassination assignments as they were given to her. At some point she bought an artificial intelligence for her spaceship from a junk shop and named it Lunatique.

Soon after Yami completed her assassin training, she went to a planet whose inhabitants have tentacles. Though she herself refuses to tell of the experience, it is strongly implied that it caused her extreme dislike of anything slimy and with tentacles.

Yami once fought and defeated the assassin called Tyrant Azenda because of a dispute within the assassination organization they both worked for. That organization used to exist on the Planet Kild, in the Talha Galaxy, which was known as the garbage dump of the Universe

One time, while Yami was in the midst of combat her mind ran amok and transformed into her Darkness Form for a few seconds. Although the transformation was incomplete, she sliced the Planet Kild in half. Some time after that, Yami came to Mikado suffering from many injuries and with no memory of what had happened.

When she arrived on Earth, Yami had no memories from before she became an assassin. However, being close to others, especially Rito, has caused those memories to resurface. Yami eventually notes that Rito's warmth reminds her of what she felt when she was with Tearju as a child.

Powers and Abilities Transformation Ability: Golden Darkness' signature ability is her transformation ability otherwise known as the Trans-ability. This ability allows her to turn almost any part of her body into almost any animate objects (preferably weapons or tools used for combat) or reshape the size and figure of her body. The nanomachines that circulate through her body allow her to do this. A downside to her powers is that if she uses her power excessively, the nanomachines in her body overheat, leaving her extremely weak and unable to move and causing her to pass out (To Love-Ru Chapter 45).

Yami considers her power to be a "cursed power" and that it can only be used for hurting people (mainly males), however, she is truly able to use her powers for harmless and trivial purposes with safe precision, such as cutting up Lala's tofu (Chapter 76) or doing maid work at Tenjōin Saki's mansion (Darkness Chapter 31).

Yami and Lala sparring

Weapon Transformation: This ability gives her the power to change any and all parts of her body into weapons like her hands turning into blades, claws or huge mechanical gauntlets. Yami mostly uses this ability to create weapons from her hair, she has also been shown to create non-weapon objects such a frying pan or even some medical equipment but is still useful against opponents. Hair Manipulation: Yami's most notable ability is her control over her hair. She can control its movements, extend it's reach and uses it to create giant fists and dragon heads. She can even solidify her hair to form metallic objects like sword blades, metal teeth, battle axe, spiked maces, drills, hammers, shields, wrecking balls. etc. Even a giant shoe that's similar to the ones she wears. She can also use her hair to create a puppet. However she rarely uses this ability in combat, instead, she uses it to assault Rito if he happens to cause (either unintentionally or not) some mishaps around him. Body Transformation: Yami is able to change her body sizes and measurements to look more mature and adult-like such as making her breasts larger. Partial Animal Transformation: She is also able to change parts of her body into animal-like features that gives her extra capabilities, growing a pair of white feathered wings (black while in her Darkness Form) from her back similer to an angel, to enable her fight. She can also turn her legs into a fish tail similar to a mermaid with gills that lets her breath and swim better underwater. Attire Transmogrification: On her "date" with Rito, Yami used her abilities to change her black Gothic outfit into a cute dress, but she said that she can't hold it for very long. Darkness Transformation: Following Tearju's expulsion from Eden, the scientists

11476042 Yami telling that she transformed by her own will.

To love ru wiki contri 5 affiliated with the group implanted a program called "Darkness" into Yami. Nemesis has stated that this form is a grand weapon of destruction that has the capability to destroy the whole universe. Darkness power was so great that it could be able to overpower Kuro, destroying his seemly indestructible weapon, the Orichalcum handgun in the process. It was also feared by Tearju after Rito and Momo mentioned it to her during the Festival (Darkness Chapter 24). Because the scientists ultimately hated the fact that the universe was heading towards peace, they designed "Darkness" to activate when Yami felt a sense of peace in her heart. The Transformation starts with Yami losing control over her transform ability, in which it started molesting her with her hair. After a while, she is then cocooned by her hair and emerges in a transformed state. In this form, all of Yami's previous abilities are enhanced as well gaining new ones:

Limitless Transform Ability: According to Nemesis, the Darkness form is what happens when Transform runs amok and removes all of its limits, which she referred to as the Limitless Transform Ability. This ultimately turns Yami from an Anti-personal weapon into an Anti-planetary weapon. Wormholes: Yami can create wormholes with the use of her hair and teleport anything or anyone anywhere, even herself. It is described by Tearju as applying her Transform Abilities on space to displace it. Matter Manipulation: Yami is now able to freely control physical matter itself by transferring her Transform Ability into said matter. She has been shown being able to control water and solidify it, creating huge hands and is also able to stand on it. She can also control solid material like creating a wormhole in the ground shaped like a mouth with sharp teeth, and creating and controlling a giant earth statue shaped like Rito. Energy Based Weapons: Yami can now construct weapons made out of energy. Planet Slicer: Yami's ultimate attack. She can form a giant blade of energy that is capable of cutting a planet in half. Expert Hand-To-Hand Combatant: Apart from her alien powers, she also has excellent martial arts skills. Her physical combat skills nearly match her transformation power, meaning that even if her transformation powers were taken away from her, she could still win a fight with just her fighting skill, as shown when she beats up the school principal while in Mikan's body only using kicks and punches. She has also shown to be skilled with a regular Katana (though created from her hair).

Enhanced Strength: Yami is shown to have a great amount of strength despite her child-like appearance.

Enhanced Durability: Yami is able to withstand heavy attacks like a direct hit from a laser from Lala's tail.

Enhanced Agility and Reflexes: Yami has really good athletic skills, capable of doing somersaults, leaping over buildings and dodging certain impacts, but is still unable to dodge Rito's clumsiness, who always seems to manage to stumble upon her regardless.

Expert Tactician: Yami has seemly proven herself to be an excellent tactician, as shown from observing her opponents and finding any sort of weakness, such as being knowledgeable of the Demon Sword, Bladix, at first sight or single-handedly finding out the rough alien Khameleon at the Tenjouin beach resort like a detective (due to reading too many detective manga, as pointed out by Mikan).

Yui Kotegawa (古手川 唯) • Age: 16 • Hair Color: Black • Eye Color: Brown • Appearance Kotegawayui0122033 Yui's full body and facial expressions

Yui has waist-length black hair that has long bangs hanging over her forehead, golden eyes and she is often seen with an angry or grumpy face. According to Sawada Mio, her measurements are B88-W59-H87.

Breast envy Yui and Lala seen as "Perfect Beauties" by envious Haruna.

In contrast to her prudish nature, Yui sports a nearly identical curvaceous figure to the far more open Lala Satalin Deviluke and the pair are often idolized by other girls for their beautiful figures. This has lead characters such as Sairenji Haruna, who would otherwise be considered perfectly normal for her age to feel inferior. Ironically, they both are mostly oblivious to this.

To Yui, however, her generous figure has become a source of embarrassment for her. A fact that is exploited by Momioka Risa and others to tease her. Yui herself has confirmed that she started wearing bras in middle school showing that she was an early bloomer.

Personality "Shameless!" ―Yui's trademark word Yui Kotegawa is a high-strung and uptight girl, she has little to no tolerance for anything perverted, students who bring personal items to school, misbehaving, or whatever she does not consider to be "acceptable behavior". Her opinions, quick temper, and habit of speaking her mind often results in her vocally reprimanding classmates. Yui quickly grows annoyed and disgusted by eccentricities and bizarre actions, especially with regards to Yūki Rito and Lala Satalin Deviluke.

Unfortunately, almost every encounter with Rito usually ends up with her embarrassed, naked or fondled (sometimes all three combined), and although her nature prevents her from easing her behavior, she is slowly warming up to his usual antics. After Rito saves Yui from a group of delinquents, she develops feelings for him. Her inexperience with boys leaves her unable to understand her own feelings and continually denies them to herself.

When Rito usually asks what is wrong, she says the exact opposite of what she wants to say and then yells at him in some way (a typical Tsundere), she tends to blush every time someone mentions him and also thinks about him through something irrelevant like when Momioka Risa asked if she had anyone she likes or him complimenting on her yukata or even when seeing Yūsaki Riko. For some time now she has come to realize that she is in love with Rito, a fact she is annoyed about given her opinion of him. Deep down (despite being strongly against lewd things) she actually desires to do these things with him. On one occasion, during one of Rito's accidents, she offered herself to him, on the condition that he would only ever do it with her (To-Love-Ru Darkness Chapter 4). This may also be a hint which shows her hypocrisy towards things she considered "shameless", or this is just a typical trait of those who are tsundere. She has been seen fantasizing about being together with him and Celine, as his wife and being pregnant with his child.

Eventually, Yui gained the ability to recognize Rito's trademark clumsiness that she witnesses whenever he trips, even when he is disguised as someone else.

Despite her seemingly cold and stern facade, Yui is in fact a generally kind and sweet person at heart.

She also really likes cats – owning cat based books, having tons of stuff cat dolls which she decorates her room with along with other cat-shaped things, shaping her Valentine chocolate into a cat's face, and even having a cat-themed floaty, something Rito seems to find cute about her. She would secretly go to pet stores to look at cats. she would get embarrassed if anyone were to find out about this.

History Yui at 5th grade In her childhood, Yui despised all boys because of how violent, insensitive and above all shameless they can be and stated that they caused her much hardship as a class rep in the 5th grade. She would try to protect girls from boys who would do these things to them, and because of this she thinks that any kind of love or romance is shameless since it meant being close to a boy. Her view of this changes slightly when she first met Yūki Rito. She saw him willingly saving a cat from a tree, the same cat she was unable to save and no other boy she asked even cared (although it was a few years later during a flashback that Yui remembered this event and Rito's being in it. Rito probably isn't aware that Yui was that same girl he met, it's unknown if he still remembers her). Yui had the impression that all boys are bad, but because of Rito's bravery and kind nature, her impression of this changes and realizes that not all boys are bad (but still finds most of them shameless, even Rito, but understands very much that it's not really his intentions).

⸻

Mea Kurosaki (黒咲 芽亜) • Age: Unknown (appears 15-16) • Hair Color: Red/Pink • Eye Color: Red • Appearance Mea has violet/blue colored eyes and red hair with a really long braid. The upper part of her hair resembles Yami and Tearju's hairstyle. She also has a violet colored hair clip with an indigo colored cross on it and hair coming below it that's similar (yet smaller) to her braid. She's also seen letting her hair untied, mostly when taking a bath and when in combat. Sometimes she wears black Gothic clothing (which she calls it her true form) that's similar to what Yami usually wears but it's a lot more revealing, instead of a skirt she wears shorts and her top has a hood on it, also with a star shaped gap symbol on the chest part. This symbol also appears on Yami's and Nemesis' clothing. She usually wears a pair of striped panties, but doesn't wear any undergarment under her battle outfit. Her 3-sizes are B75-W52-H77.

Personality Mea has a laid-back, mischievous and childish personality, bordering on the psychotic side sometimes. She is rarely not smiling, particularly in combat, acts friendly to friend and foe alike, and often says "wonderful" if something unfortunately perverted happens. Mea has a sweet tooth and likes anything sweet, preferring to put so many sugar cubes in her tea that they pile out the top of the cup. She seems to enjoy messing with and teasing people, particularly in regards to Rito and all the girls that have feelings for him.

For example she has made more than one reference to him having licked her body or her desire for him to do so, though she makes this out as a joke. However it has been discovered by Oshizu (during her possession of Mea) that this desire is in fact completely genuine. It was also discovered by Oshizu that within Mea's mind is a darkness so deep that it almost consumed her and revealing a dark and scary side to her that has left her highly mistrustful of Mea ever since.

Mea is very loyal to Nemesis and follows her teachings about being a weapon and gets mad at anyone if they disrespect Nemesis in any way. However, there are those like Rito and Tearju who try to convince her otherwise. This seems to work as she seems to begin to care and consider others as friends and show sympathy towards "weaker" beings.

Mea doesn't show any kind of embarrassment or shame, not even when her clothes got ripped off. She instead prefers to get caught in awkward and/or sexual experiences, showing a sadomasochistic side.

Oddly, Mea's personality is practically the opposite of her sister Yami. She always seems kind and sweet around others, but has a sadistic side which she rarely shows, while Yami appears cold and emotionless around others, but has a nicer side that is rarely shown. Mea is fond of anything ecchi while Yami detests it, as can be seen in her fetish for being licked. The one thing the two do share is the ability to get overwhelmed by their powers; Mea, whenever taking apart in something as miniscule as cutting food, can enter a state of euphoria that forces her to continue cutting all things around her with glee, much like how Yami's anger towards ecchi keeps her from rationalizing between life and death.

History Through what Mea remembers, she is practically what's left of the Eden organization that created both her and Yami after it was destroyed. Awakening from a destroyed life pod, the first thing she sees is destruction everywhere. After wandering around for a moment, she came across Nemesis, who took her in, trained her, and taught her that the existence of a transformation weapon is only for killing. She also told her about her older sister Yami, whom Mea wanted to find by asking other criminals in space, which she managed to. Before she came to Earth, she made a living on bounty hunting.

Mea enrolled into Sainan High in order to get acquainted with Yami, a month before Momo and Nana did so. She did not make friends with anyone (and possibly didn't even talk to anyone) until she met Nana.

Powers and Abilities TLRD V3 CH11 P135 Hair Transformation: Laser guns

Transformation Ability: As a second generation transformation weapon, Mea has transformation abilities similar to Yami because of the nano-machines in her body, except she is able to create more advanced machine/energy-based equipments, which Yami is unable to create. Most of them are transformed from her hair. She has been shown to create non-weapon objects like a puppet from her hand.

Weapon Transformation: Similar to Yami, Mea can shapeshift any part of her body into weapons such as blades. However, she is capable of creating many differently shaped gun-like machines that shoot laser beams that easily destroy powerful barriers and a micro-black hole. Hair Manipulation: Mea can control and move her hair/pony tail (like an actual tail) and uses it for most of her transformation abilities like many different shape guns, a clawed hand or a blade at the end of it. Mea is shown to create bigger machines and a multitude of huge guns and blades. Mea can also extend the reach of hair. Psycho Dive: An ability unique to Mea, which she can use to connect herself to another person's mind. By physically touching that person's forehead, she can enter their subconscious to steal information, look through their memories or even enter their dreams and recreate them to whatever she wants. This ability can also be used on machines, like when Mea connected her ponytail through the screen of a laptop. By connecting her ponytail at the back of a person's neck, she can control the movements of that person, and through this, both Mea and said person can share each other's thoughts and feelings, even deep feelings that Mea herself was not aware of. Mea can also connect with more than one person at same time. Sometimes Mea would playfully use this ability on Rito to get in his head and do ecchi things. Nana is the only known person to break free from this ability. TLRD V5 CH20 P165 Mea's semi-weapon form.

Body Transformation: Mea can alter the shape and size of her body or parts of it, like making her breasts bigger. Mea can also alter her size to copy the form and appearance of anyone (eg: Tearju), similar to shapeshifting. Partial Animal Transformation: Mea has also been shown to use partial animal forms like growing a pair of feathered wings on her back to enable flight. She can also transform her hair into animal ears such as cat ears (Darkness Chapter 36). But it is also shown she can grow a pair of feathered wings with metalic parts on it, Probably does type of wings can be reffered as her wings specially made for speed (Darkness Chapter 46) ​Vocal Alteration/Imatation: In addition to her shapeshifting abilities, she can also change her voice to sound like anyone she turns into. Attire Transmogrification: Mea can change her attire into anything, like from her school uniform into her own all black Gothic style suit similar to what Yami often wears, but smaller and more revealing. ⸻

Sainan High School Students

Risa Momioka (籾岡 里紗) • Age: 16 • Hair Color: Light Brown • Eye Color: Brown • Appearance Risa is an attractive girl with dirty blond colored hair and dark brown eyes. She has a curvaceous figure (though not at the level of Lala or Yui), and her 3-sizes are B83-W60-H85. She sometimes has trouble keeping boys at bay. Of all her classmates she is probably the most willing to use her figure to attract attention, save for comedic scenes.

It's also notable that when in school, she does not wear a tie, which is included and supposedly required with the uniforms of female students.

Risa likes wearing her school uniform even on days off, seeing it as a brand itself.

Personality Risa tease Risa teasing Rito, much to her and Mio's amusement and Rito's chagrin

Risa is quite indecent, as she always goes around groping other girls' breasts and suggesting how something would lead to an erotic situation. She also enjoys teasing other people about sexual things, getting amusement out of their confused and/or bashful responses. She can be nosy and likes to joke about other people's personal business like their love lives, such as when she asks Yui if there is someone she has in mind or giving Lala bad advice about her relationship with Rito. She and Mio tend to enjoy anything "ecchi" that happens around them, like Mea's Trans-ability to increase her bust size. Risa is in fact so amazingly perverted that even Momo is impressed, intimidated, and vexed by her technique when Risa gropes her in the shower.

It is possible that Risa is bisexual, as evidenced by her admiration and magnetic attraction to the female body, and in chapter 40.5 in the manga (To love Ru Darkness), we see a side of Risa's lecherous approach towards Momo. Strong yuri was implied in that chapter as Risa was sexually touching Momo and playing with her tail while it was between Risa's legs. It is not known how Risa feels towards Rito. Whether it's a boy or a girl, Risa is generally drawn to people whom she can freely tease sexually.

In contrast to her outwardly cheerful personality, Risa confided in Rito that she sometimes gets lonely at night which is likely caused by her frequently absent parents.[1][2] Due to how Risa describes her loneliness, it is likely at least part of her motivation to seek out pleasurable interactions.

Relationships Risa is a very mischievous and perverted girl. And so, she likes to be around shy and unwilling people whom she can tease and play with easily.

Yūki Rito It is not known what Rito and Risa feel for each other, but it could be assumed that they are generally friends, or at least acquainted through Haruna. While various other girls consider Rito to be a pervert, Risa knows that he is an innocent boy to a fault and likes to tease him about sexual subjects.

Rito wishes that the naive Lala would stop taking lewd ideas from Risa and Mio. Risa doesn't take Rito's nervousness around sex and temptation seriously, and likes to play with his shyness around girls and occasionally gropes the breasts of other girls in front of him, knowing that she's making him feel uncomfortable and embarrassed.

Very early in the story, she didn't think much of him as anything special. In chapter 147 and episode 10 of Motto To Love-Ru, she takes a much closer and bolder approach in teasing him, but it is still unclear that the feelings are totally platonic since Risa seem to only toy with Rito and her feelings could just be lust. She has gone on record that saying he can be helpful, innocent, and even cute when he overreacts to things.

In a To Love-Ru Darkness side story, when Momo asked her what type of guy she likes, she answers it was someone like Rito, but it was hinted that Risa actually likes shy-types of people, since Rito is the only shy guy in the series that gets totally flustered in the face of provocative occurrences as opposed to lusting after beautiful women. Another evidence that prove Risa likes shy types of people is that she shows strong perverted action towards Haruna and Yui, since both girls are uncomfortable with perverted mischief, especially towards Haruna, who is really subtle and shy. It was as also revealed in chapter 40.5 of (To love Ru Darkness), as Momo ran way in embarrassment, she commented how cute Momo was and that it reminded her of a certain someone (likely Rito). But has shown to Harbor some feelings to him (episode 10 of Motto To Love-Ru).

She would try once again to be close to Rito but, under Nemesis control, Rito teases her. However, they were prevented from doing something shameless by Yui and Nana. After Rito was gone, Risa don't believe that Rito could do something like that and was not angry about him, and is hinted that she could have feelings for him, or it is just her desire to fill the void in her heart created by her busy parents.[3] She even calling him "darling" affectionately during their interrupted ecchi moment.[4]

Lala Satalin Deviluke She is good friends with Lala. Risa likes groping/complimenting her breasts and giving her intentionally wrong or lewd ideas to her questions about how to get Rito to 'like her more', which is something he really dislikes.

Momo Belia Deviluke Like with any other girl, Risa likes to tease and play with Momo. She is practically shown to be even more indecent than Momo herself, being able to make her react when she was molesting her. She has stated that she likes that reaction of hers, comparing it to Rito's.

Momo herself is also very perverted and enjoys sexual pleasure, though only by Rito. Nevertheless, it's surprising that she, of all people, would be so overwhelmed when she was 'hit on' by Risa.

Sawada Mio Risa's friend and partner in crime, she also enjoys groping girls' breasts and whispering in their ears.

Sairenji Haruna Risa's friend, whom she occasionally gropes along with her friend Mio, sometimes saying they've "grown" as a means of friendly teasing, mostly in front of Rito. Haruna often gets annoyed and even mad at her for when she talks about erotic things, especially when she involves Rito in it.

Kotegawa Yui Risa is one of the people that Yui has to tolerate the most because of her indecent behavior, like groping her's or other girls' breasts, claiming her and also Mio shameless. However Risa also calls Yui shameless for having an attractive body. Risa would sometimes tease her about these sorts of things which further angers her.

Saruyama Kenichi Along with Mio, Risa hates Saruyama; they regard him as a creep. They are annoyed with his pervertedness, which is ironic as they are perverted themselves. For Valentine's day, they also joked that the chocolates they were giving him would be his first and last chocolates.

Mio Sawada (沢田 未央) • Age: 16 • Hair Color: Black • Eye Color: Brown • Appearance Mio has dark brown hair which have two pig tails, light brown eyes and wears glasses. According to the databook, her measurements are B73-W56-H76.

Personality Mio enjoys fondling other girls' breasts, something she can relate to with Risa. They also enjoy anything "ecchi" that happens around them, like Mea's Trans-ability to increase the size of her breasts.

Relationships Momioka Risa Risa is her best friend and her most recurring relationship. She is never seen without Risa by her side. They both enjoy groping other girls' breasts. Both women also enjoy doing perverted stuff to other girls which suggest that they could be a more of a couple duo that enjoys doing things together such as enjoying the female body together by groping other women's breasts.

Sairenji Haruna One of her close friends, whom she occasionally gropes along with her friend Risa. Sometimes she and Risa would do it in front of Rito just to mess with him.

Lala Satalin Deviluke Lala is one of her close friends who's breasts she enjoys groping along with Risa. Unlike other girls, Lala doesn't really get annoyed by them as much.

Yūki Rito She isn't exactly as close to him as Risa or Haruna are but she still enjoys messing with him about his shyness as much as Risa does.

Kotegawa Yui Yui completely hates Mio and Risa's usual antics of enjoying and doing anything that she finds "shameless". The pair would sometimes tease Yui for having a shameless body herself or if there's someone she might like.

Saruyama Kenichi Along with Risa, Mio hates Saruyama; they regard him as a creep. They are annoyed with his pervertedness, which is ironic as they are perverted themselves.

Kenichi Saruyama (猿山 健一) • Age: 16 • Hair Color: Black • Eye Color: Black • Appearance Saruyama has black eyes and black spiky back hair, most of which is pointing back.

Personality Saruyama is quite perverted, He would try to peek in to girls hot spring and bring Rito along, and if ever caught he would put all the blame on Rito, he doesn't seem to care about the consequences about his perverted actions. He can be really jealous of Rito (along with almost all the boys in the school) because how close he is with a lot of pretty and popular girls. In the first chapter, it is also shown that he has bikini model posters and magazines in his bedroom, further cementing his perversity.

He currently has a crush on a girl named Yūsaki Riko, who unknown to him is actually Rito transformed into a girl by Lala's inventions. Sometimes he would imagine being in romantic (or ecchi) situation with her, which Rito understandably finds disturbing. Saruyama is no less a pervert and a loser around "Riko" as he is any other time when he talks about girls, which disgusts Rito.

Plot In the original series, Saruyama would appear casually, almost never without Rito around. He would mostly a hang out with Rito, going on beach trips or to swimming pools with others of the main cast, sometimes he would give Rito chances for him to be alone with Haruna (although he would also try to get in perverted situations with her and other girls) and talk to Rito about how great breasts are. Saruyama would never miss a chance to peak on girls bath and would bring Rito along and make him take the blame if ever caught. Every now and then, he would feel jealous of how close Rito is towards girls.

In To Love-Ru Darkness, Saruyama appears less frequent and continues to be angry and jealous of Rito because of how close he is to all the pretty girls and getting in good/ecchi situations. He also joins the Principal as they chase after girls often; whenever either of them try to do so, it doesn't seem end well. He still has a crush on "Riko".

Relationships Yūki Rito His most notable relationship is his best friend Rito. The two have known each other for a long time and he is the closest male friend Rito has. Saruyama seems to understand Rito's shyness and clumsiness around girls almost better than anyone else. He wasn't at all surprised when Rito failed again to confess his love to Haruna. Saruyama has made some attempts to help Rito get together with Haruna. He also noticed how much Rito has changed around women since he started hanging with Lala.

Although they are friends, they both have certain dislikes towards each other. Rito doesn't like how other students see them grouped together when Saruyama starts acting and talking like a pervert. Saruyama envies Rito for being close to Lala and many other girls, even though he already has feelings for Haruna. Still, the two are on good terms on some occasions.

Saruyama is unaware that Rito is actually "Riko", the girl he has a crush on.

Lala Satalin Deviluke In the original manga, Lala sometimes helped Saruyama out, such as when he wanted to go on a date with "Riko". The two are friends through Rito, though they aren't particularly close and he is one of the few people besides teachers that Lala is on a last name basis with. Saruyama finds Lala highly attractive, due to her big boobs, though he also finds her shrunk down form cute. This likely explains how he uses the "-chan" honorific when referring to her.

Sairenji Haruna Saruyama isn't exactly close with Haruna and she hates it when he makes perverted comments, although the two are still friends. Sometimes Saruyama would try to get Rito alone with Haruna so he can confess his feelings to her, but he would also try to get into an ecchi moment with her (as he does with most girls) which fails in the end.

Other Supporting Girls

Kyōko Kirisaki (桐崎 恭子) • Age: 16 • Hair Color: Red • Eye Color: Brown • Appearance Student kyouko Kyouko in her school uniform and glasses

Kyouko has short black hair (purple hair in the original series) and purple eyes. Yūki Rito once noted that she looks like Sairenji Haruna when Haruna lets her hair lose.[1]

She is most often seen wearing her magical girl costume on her show: a red pointy hat and cape, a white top and a blue skirt. On some other occasions she is wearing clothing typical of Idols in Japan when performing on stage. In chapter 154, she appear wearing causal outfit first time. In chapter 58 of To Love-Ru Darkness, she is seen in her school uniform, and it's revealed that she wears glasses in her days off while during work, she wears contacts.

Her 3-sizes are 85-56-85.

Personality Kyouko is quite kind, modest and friendly to those around her and also cute. She genuinely hates perverts who assault her like the Principal and doesn't hesitate to use her fire abilities to burn them. Kyouko is also quite understandable, especially to Yūki Rito, whom she never burned whenever he sees her naked; she also finds his blushed face cute. Sometimes, she tends to play with his shyness, such as asking him on a date as a joke. Eventually, she starts to develop feelings for him after he saves her from a swarm of fans and running in a princess carry style.

Plot At first, Kyouko was seen as a minor character, only appearing on her TV show as fictional character.

When Nana Astar Deviluke and Momo Belia Deviluke bring Yūki Rito, Lala Satalin Deviluke and their friends into their virtual reality game (Chapter 93-98, OVA 4 of first anime), they created a scantily clad virtual Kyouko as the demon king, where she temps Rito to become her boyfriend and forget Lala. Rito and the others manage to defeat her and return to the real world, where Lala and the others go back to watching the real Magical Kyouko on TV.

In Chapter 123, she made her appearance in person when Run Elsie Jewelria began starring as an antagonist at her show. At the same time, it was revealed that she is an human/alien hybrid with actual fire abilities. Ever since their first meeting on her show, she and Run have done many projects together, such as debuting many songs together.

Kyouko reappears again when Run asks Rito to pretend to be her boyfriend (Chapter 154), however, Kyouko is able to tell they aren't really dating, but she is aware of her feelings for him and wishes her luck on getting him.

Later, she shows up at Rito's school for a lecture while Run is at a recording and asks Rito to show her around. This was actually a plan to get information on him for Run. However, after she gets swarmed by fans and Rito saves her, she appears to start developing her own feelings towards Rito.

In Chapter 58 of To Love-Ru Darkness, when Run becomes worried about Rito and Lala's relationship, Kyouko asks Rito to hang out with her so that she can learn about his feelings for Lala. Momo attempts to get Rito and Kyouko into a romantic situation while the two are together in a row boat. Instead, her plan backfires when her and Mea's boat collides with a boat being rowed by Ren, causing her to drop her D-Dial, summoning the Chucchu Weed (a mass of plant tentacles with lips). As usual, Rito gets caught in a perverted incident with the girl he is with. However, Kyouko blows fire over the plants, torching them. She is then carried off by Rito for the second time in the series.

Powers and Abilities Flamian Hybrid Physiology:

Pyrokinesis: Being half-Flamian, Kyouko possesses the ability of fire manipulation, the power to control ambient heat energy and burn whatever she may desire. She usually passes this off as magic tricks and special effects on her show during her acting role as Magical Kyōko TV series, or to defend herself from perverts like the Principal. Flame Constructs: Kyouko is also able to create constructs made of fire, such as streams, spheres or even skywriting. These flames require her concentrations to maintain their current shape and will burn out in approximately 3 minutes unless infused with additional flame. Fire Breath: Kyouko can breathe fire, which she can project as either intense concentrated streams of flame or wide range blasts. Heat Resistance: Kyouko is immune to heat and fire both from herself and from outside sources that is below her own maximum output, for it doesn't seem to hurt her when holding flames in her hands or blowing it out of her mouth. Relationship with Other Characters Run Elsie Jewelria Run first met Kyouko when she starred as a villain in her show. At first, Run didn't take too kindly to Kyouko but after getting to know her better, Run sees that Kyouko is a really kind person who listens to Run's music and even reads her blog (and finding out that Kyouko is human/alien hybrid), and they become good friends. Kyouko knows about Run's feelings towards Yūki Rito and wishes the best of luck in getting him.

In To Love-ru Darkness, she visits Sainan High and asks Rito to be her tour guide, which is part of her plan to find out what she can about him for Run, but then starts developing feelings for Rito herself. While she continues to talk with Rito in her spare time to learn more about Run's chances for a relationship with him, she has yet to tell Run about her own growing infatuation with him.

Ren Elsie Jewelria Ren doesn't seem to be as close to Kyouko as Run Elsie Jewelria is, but she is aware of their ability to swap minds and gender through a sneeze. Kyouko has helped them from changing when she and Run are performing together, but this is no longer the necessary as the two have separate bodies now.

Yūki Rito They first met when Run Elsie Jewelria asked Rito to meet her and pretend to be her boyfriend. Kyouko told Run that she realized about half way through that it was all pretend. Kyouko likes Rito's innocence, as when he saw her naked after a mishap, she finds him cute when he blushed. During her visit at Sainan High, to find out what she can learn about Rito for Run, she starts to develop feelings for him after he saved her from a swarm of rampaging fans and carried her in his arms. Although she is reluctant to acknowledge it, it appears that having been carried in Rito's arms was where she started to have a crush on him. Her feelings for him grow even more in Darkness chapter 58, when she hangs out with him to ask about his feelings for Lala Satalin Deviluke, only to be carried in his arms again after another mishap. When talking about Rito with Run, Kyouko inadvertently mentioned that she was jealous that Run went to the same school as him and got to see him much more regularly than her.

Lala Satalin Deviluke Lala is a devoted fan of hers and would always watch her show, occasionally with others like her sisters, Yūki Mikan, Celine and even Yūki Rito. They first met when she helped repair her clothes due to Run Elsie Jewelria's grenade that dissolved them. She also helped her escape the swarm of fans that were after her with an invention that teleported her and Rito inside a locker (leaving most of their clothes behind).

Run Elsie Jewelria (ルン・エルシ・ジュエリア) • Age: 16 • Hair Color: Light Purple • Eye Color: Purple • Appearance Run has hot pink eyes and has long light green hair with two points sticking out at the top. Her body appears slender and curvy.

Her 3 sizes are B83-W55-H83. She is always wearing clothing typical of Idols in Japan, especially her Blue Metalia outfit that she wears when starring at the Magical Kyouko show.

Personality Her personality can be described as determined and obsessive (especially where Rito is concerned). On some occasions, when it comes to Rito who she loves so much, she can be quite cheery and sweet, and would often cling on to him. Run can also be a bit of a stalker to him, but entirely out of devoted care instead of anything truly selfish or immoral. She can get a little mad when it comes to Lala and her relationship with Rito, but has since come (somewhat) to terms with the fact that she still has time to win him over. Run can be a bit melodramatic and can misinterpret things easily, more so in the anime, a good example of this in Episode 16 of the original series.

In the first series, her personality was really childish, and she would always try to pull pranks on Lala (which ultimately fail) to get back at her for all of the mischief she suffered from her. But in To-Love-Ru Darkness, she has greatly matured, as she no longer pulls any pranks on Lala and focuses on her work as an idol. She tries harder to gain Rito's love, especially now since she is now a full woman and is no longer with Ren.

In the OVAs, she doesn't mind showing others her body, however, she will always end up sneezing causing Ren to be in an erotic situation.

History Sometimes Run would be taken to Deviluke to play with Lala. Apparently she really hated being part of Lala's experiments and being forced to go through so much trouble (even while Ren was in control). Even though Run hated Lala, her male counterpart Ren falls in love with her.

Powers and Abilities Strength: Run has been shown to be strong enough to carry a huge hammer. Speed: Run is also shown to have great speed, however she cannot control her speed while holding something heavy like a huge hammer, when attempting to hit Lala but instead hits Rito. Former Powers and Abilities Alternate Personalities: Both Memorzian genders each have their own separate personalities. Run is also capable of communicating with Ren within his subconscious (this also works for Ren). The inactive personality can also feel whatever the active personality physically feels, like when Ren accidentally kissed Rito, Run had also felt it. This is no longer the case after reaching adulthood. It is unknown, and unlikely, if they are still capable of communicating with each other telepathically. Gender Swapping: It is said that due to evolution, those from Memorze like Run are born with both male and female genders. Normally Memorzorians would change monthly, but due to the differences in environment and magnetic fields on Earth, Run and Ren would change from a sneeze and both have different opinions about certain things. After reaching adulthood, they both physically separate, and Ren no longer shares a body with Run, so this ability is not usable anymore.

Ren Elsie Jewelria (レン・エルシ・ジュエリア) • Age: 16 • Hair Color: Purple • Eye Color: Purple • Appearance Ren has hot pink eyes and the top of his hair is white with two points sticking out, while the bottom back part is black, during his first appearance many girls took a liking to his looks.

However in the To Love Ru Darkness manga the top of Ren's hair is shown to be light blue and dark blue on the bottom back.

Personality Ren's personality can be described as determined, but stubborn (especially where Lala is concerned). In the first series of To-Love-Ru, he constantly tries to prove that he is a real man to Lala, who passively promised to marry him if he became more manly (although she doesn't recall it) by competing against Rito to pointless challenges. Ren would overly complement on Lala's beauty and her kindness towards others.

In To-Love-Ru Darkness, Ren's appearances become less frequent, but he seems to have become more calm and mature. He doesn't seem to try to impress Lala or try to compete against Rito anymore, so it's possible that he has accepted him as Lala's lover, although Ren still shows his love for her.

History As a child, Ren sometimes would be taken to Deviluke to play with Lala. Despite all the trouble she put him through with all her experiments and mischief, he apparently falls in love with her and cherishes all of those memories with her. However, his female counterpart remained angry at Lala for all of the abusive fun Lala had with them. Ren one time asked Lala if they would get married if he becomes a real man, which she agreed to but doesn't remember it.

Taking it for face value, upon arrival on Earth, Ren arrives to prove that he's manlier than Rito and he enter in 1-A class. But his attempts to win Lala' heart are useless and, worse, an accidental kiss with Rito (chapter 23) make his alter-ego Run fall in love for the rival.

In chapter 50, Ren is put in another class and get separated from Lala and friends. Indeed, the boy start to appear less more in the story.

In chapter 9 of To Love-Ru Darkness, Run and Ren permanently separated into two separate beings after reaching 'adulthood'.

Powers and Abilities Strength: Ren is shown (comically) to have great strength, most notably in episode 12 of the original anime series, he is seen carrying a really huge weapon. Speed: Ren is also shown (comically) to have great speed, like in episode 12, he outran everyone by multiple laps. However Ren is unable to control his speed while carrying something incredibly heavy. Former Powers and Abilities Alternate personalities: Both Memorzian genders have their own separate personalities. Ren is capable of communicating with Run within his subconscious (this also works for Run). The inactive personality can also feel whatever the active personality physically feels, like when Ren kissed Rito, Run had also felt it. This is no longer the case after they have reached adulthood and now each possess their own separate bodies. Gender Swapping: It is said that due to evolution, those from Memorze like Ren are born with both male and female genders. Normally, Memorzorians would change monthly, but due to the differences in environment and magnetic fields on Earth, Ren and Run change after a sneeze, and both have different opinions about certain things. After reaching adulthood, they both physically separate, and Ren no longer shares a body with Run, so this ability is no longer usable. ⸻

Rito’s Family

Mikan Yuuki (結城 美柑) • Age: 12-13 • Hair Color: Dark Brown • Eye Color: Brown • Appearance Mikan has gold brown eyes and brown hair, she is described to be really cute by some characters. According to a "Full size Dakimakura Cover-Mikan Version", her measurements are B70-W52-H73.

Mikan is usually seen in an apron, as she is in the kitchen most of the time. Other than cooking attire, she is seen in a school uniform, casual clothing, etc.

Personality As a younger sister, Mikan is widely known for her maturity and reliability for her age. Her maturity is also quite unique, as while she is Rito's younger sister and the youngest character in the cast, she is arguably more adult than most of the other characters, and basically acts as a big sister, wife, or mother to Rito and all who live in her house. Because she is very good at cooking and housework, she essentially takes care of her big brother. Rather than looking up to him, she instead treats him like he is her little brother, and rarely calls him "Onii-chan", as she used to. Mikan generally treats Lala the same way, enjoying her company like a little sister and pleased to see her brother's life becoming more entertaining upon her arrival.

Like most girls in the cast, she is also aware of her breast size[1] and often feels inferior when comparing other girls' to hers, mostly Lala, although her physique is quite normal for her age. Despite this, she still feels insecure about this, and has developed a positive connection with Nana due to their similar chest-related angst.

In the fifth OVA, when Mikan was effected by the pollen of one of Momo plants that makes anyone who inhales it to act freely, she acted childish and clingy towards Rito, even calling him "Onii-chan", showing how shy she is at expressing how she feels towards Rito and that she just acts mature around others. She even feared that her place in Rito's might slip away when Momo was being too close to him.

Mikan is very perceptive, as she is good at understanding other people and noticing their feelings. She knew very quickly her brother's crush on Haruna, and Haruna's similar feelings for Rito as well. And she knows that Rito is too scared to enjoy perverted things, and that Lala is innocent and quite childish, so she doesn't mind catching Lala naked in her brother's bed in the morning and even treats it like something normal, though it should be noted that she overreacted once when she mistook them having sex in his room, when Lala was just moaning because Rito's hand was stuck to her tail. But she particularly doesn't like Momo sneaking into his room at night and sleeping with him, because of how sexual she can be towards him.

Like a big sister or mother, she would try to protect Rito from sexual temptations and doesn't like it when girls with more perverted tendencies like Momo and Mea would do perverted things to him. She tries as often as she can to watch out whenever Momo gets the opportunity to be alone with Rito and even guards his room at night to stop her from sneaking in and sleeping next to him. She also doesn't particularly like Mea when first meeting her, and though she tried to get to know Mea better after learning that she is Yami's sister, she finds that she cannot deal with her type and likely can't become close friends with her as she is with Yami.

Mikan seems to get along quite well with characters who are more level-headed, composed, and mature, such as Yami and Kujō Rin. In To LOVE-Ru Darkness, despite being older than even Mikan's big brother, Rin seems to have become friends with her, and is astonished that someone like Mikan is the younger sister of the clumsy and quirky Rito. And Mikan is the only person whom Yami truly considers to be her friend. Rito explains that because she is so mature and reliable for her age, deep down, Mikan can get lonely without people she can relate with, and so she can use older friends who are like big sister figures to her, whom she can lean on[2].

Mikan has a case of Astraphobia, the fear of thunderstorms.

History Prior to the series, Mikan had always looked up to her brother and often called him "Onii-Chan" because of how kind and dependable he always seemed, such as climbing a tall tree to save a cat. Because of their parents hardly being at home, it was always just the two of them together, even during Christmas, and playing on snowy days. Over time, her respect for Rito seems to lighten. However, she still likes how he is always caring for her. For example, when she was 9 years old, Rito took her to a swimming pool where it was very crowded at the time and she got separated from Rito before she knew it, when he found her she noticed how desperately he searched for her from seeing his shirt full of sweat. Although she thought it was stupid of him, she was also happy knowing how much he really cares for her.

Saibai Yuuki (結城 才培) • Age: 40+ • Hair Color: Brown • Eye Color: Brown • Appearance Saibai has gold/brown eyes and slightly long and messy black hair, he seems to have big eyebrows. He is always seen wearing a dark blue shirt and a red headband that says "big haul".

Personality Saibai can be utterly serious and determined in doing his manga drawings especially before deadlines are met, but seems to have a bit of a goofy side, such as making a joke about Rito and Lala "sleeping" together every night and punching Rito when he got drunk and mistook his son for a burglar. Like Mikan, he is very casual, even amused, with his son's relationship with an alien girl, something Rito finds perplexing about his family.

He feels that whenever he puts on his headband, his mood turns intense and his work marches right along, saying it's a case of form defining substance.

Plot He first appeared in Chapter 11 when Rito went to his apartment to help with his manga before the due date, at the time he also brought Lala along which Saibai was aware that she was an alien from Mikan. Lala helps Saibai and his co-workers finish their work by using an unmaned invention that helps them draw faster, however his co-workers quit due to exhaustion, who Lala later replaced with Zastin, Maul and Smutts and are currently working under Saibai.

In the anime, he writes a (not-so-encouraging) letter to Rito at the end of the first season.

With the help of Lala, Saibai returns for the Christmas party, stating how much Zastin and his workers have grown since starting out.

Relationships Yūki Rito Rito is Saibai's only son, whom he would occasionally ask to buy manga supplies for him or assist in drawing his mangas. If he were to say no to him, then his dad would not give him his monthly allowance, showing he has a stern parental approach to him. Even though he rarely sees him, it is obvious he still cares for his son, just as any father would.

Yūki Mikan Saibai Mikan TLRD EP3 01 Mikan cleaning up Saibai's place.

Mikan is Saibai's only daughter, whom he also would constantly ask along with Rito to bring in manga supplies to him with a bonus of helping clean up his apartment and cook food for him and his co-workers, which he really enjoys, saying it fuels up his stamina. Although Mikan finds it quite irritating especialy when he buys Momo's innocent act.

Yūki Ringo His wife, whom he hardly ever sees due to her job as a fashion designer traveling around the world. But they do seem to still love and care for each other.

Lala Satalin Deviluke Saibai seems to enjoy Lala's company and likes teasing Rito over his relationship with her, like how she sneaks into his bed naked. Lala would usualy call him "Rito Papa".

Momo Belia Deviluke Momo would always try to make good impression around him, which seems to work, as he once mentioned that she would make a great wife. He is completely unaware of her lecherous side and is under the impression that she really is a kind and sweet young lady. Momo would occasionally call him "Father" (as in for Father-in-Law).

Zastin Zastin, along with Maul and Smutts, currently work for Saibai as manga artists (with Zastin as chief assistant) ever since his previous assistants quit due to exhaustion when they used one of Lala's inventions to help them draw fast. Zastin, Maul and Smutts seem to enjoy their jobs as manga artists more than their jobs as bodyguards.

Ringo Yuuki (結城 凛子) • Age: 40+ • Hair Color: Brown • Eye Color: Brown • Appearance Ringo has orange hair and yellow eyes, she is mostly wearing glasses above her forehead, a gold necklace and some really fancy clothing.

Personality Ringo has a tendency to instinctively fondle other girls breasts, waist and butt with her hands and find out their measurements whenever she see's them (like when she first saw Lala and Haruna), even going as far as to strip their clothes. This is a trick she probably uses in her work time as she personaly calls it her "work mode" a side of hers which she has a hard time controlling, showing how very seriously she takes her work.

Plot Ringo first appeared in chapter 60 to check on her family (much to the surprise of her children) and was already made aware of Lala living with them (and the fact she's an alien) by Mikan, upon seeing her she immediately "checks" her by fondeling her body and finds out her measurements. She does same to Haruna (who happens to have been visiting), only this time she tries to strips her clothes off but was stopped by Rito, seeing how Haruna acts around, she becomes aware of her feelings for him and comments how popular he is, this causes Haruna to be emberrasment and leave, much to Rito's displeasure. Later at the airport, Ringo is about to leave but before she does she tells Lala "good luck".

With the help of Lala, she returns for the Christmas party in chapter 130, where she asks who is Celine's mother, apparently assuming that her son is the father. This is the last time she appear in the series.

Relationships Yūki Saibai Her husband who that she rarely see's but still loves very much.

Yūki Rito Her first born child and only son, she seems to be aware of Haruna's feelings for him where he is not, thus makes fun of him for being oblivious. She would sometimes give him advice about girls and has shown to care for his well-being and his happiness.

Yūki Mikan Her second born and only daughter, and like her daughter, Ringo is also highly perceptive, able to read Haruna's feelings towards Rito and both make fun of him for not knowing it. She also shows great caring towards her only daughter, feeling sorry and sympathized for her because of her frequently absence, and she cannot help but feel proud of her daughter's maturity.

Lala Satalin Deviluke Ringo seems to taken a liking to Lala, before she left, she wishes Lala "good luck" on her relationship with Rito, also knowing Haruna's feelings for him too.

Gid Lucion Deviluke (ギド・ルシオン・デビルーク) • Age: 300+ • Hair Color: Black • Eye Color: Red • Appearance Gid's Army Gid during the war

Gid has red eyes and spiky black hair. In his introduction, he had the physical appearance of a child, looking slightly devilish, with shark-like teeth and the characteristic Devilukean tail in the shape of a trident. Due to overusing his powers during the "Galaxy Unification Wars", he apparently shrunk down to the size of a child.

After he is restored to his adult physique, he is a lot older and taller, but still very youthful, appearing like a young man.

Personality Gid's personality is an ambiguous one. For most of his appearance in the manga, Gid appears to be very spoiled, bratty and perverted, going as far as to use his child-like appearance to get close to pretty girls. He is also quite strict and demanding towards his daughters, often having them do things for his own benefit rather than out of love for them. Lala claims the only reason he wants her to get married is so he can relinquish the throne and be free to pursue his perverted hobbies.

In the manga, he seems more easygoing and is much more accepting of Rito as his heir. While in the anime, he is much more critical of Rito and even attacks him, saying that Rito is not suitable for Lala. He can be a little reasonable, however, giving Rito a chance to prove himself so that the Earth wouldn't be destroyed. He hasn't shown any perverted intentions at all, yet still proves to be demanding and spoiled. In both the manga and the anime, Gid is mostly a very self-righteous and arrogant individual, surrounding himself with cups of wine and other luxuries as opposed to truly ruling anything as he should.

Gid is a highly pompous and pampered individual, but at the same time is more than capable of taking matters into his own hands and solving problems as he sees fit, ranging from ending all wars in the galaxy to going out into the woods to find Lala when she was lost as a child. His true nature is quite unclear, but it has been hinted at numerous times that, beneath his callous and even vindictive exterior, he's a caring and devoted man.

In his introduction, he is bossy yet easygoing and wouldn't be bothered to do any responsibility himself. However, when confronted by an enemy, Gid is supremely confident and commanding. He shows that he is willing to spare his enemy's life if they bowed down, apologized to him, and spared him any further trouble, but not without establishing his place far above them, even if he has to demonstrate his power, a mere fraction of which easily supports his superiority.

When Gid regained his adult physique (after the effect of overusing too much energy that turned him into a kid), his personality seems to shift into more serious one. In this state, he still does not demonstrate being a loving father very much, but he has shown to be able to differentiate Momo from a shape-shifting Nemesis, saying "no father mistakes his own child". He is a bit, if not all, playful, and still afraid of Sephie's wrath. For all of his superiority over most other characters, his wife is the only person whom he does not want to make angry. He has also shown to be a reasonable and compromising man. He accepted Rito's reasoning when the latter allowed Nemesis to survive in his body and teach her to stop hurting others, as Gid smiled and said to Rito to "prove to me that you are a man", showing some degree of respect toward his pending son-in-law.

History Gid TLRD2 OVA2 01 Young Gid during his training.

In his youth, Gid came to a planet for combat training, only to have saved Sephie from numerous men harassing her. After a rocky introduction afterwards, the two eventually fell in love, married and had three daughters.

During a time when much of the universe was in a constant state of war, it was Gid who led a vast alliance under his planet Deviluke and won the war. Afterwards, Gid had practically become king of much of the known universe, and together with Sephie as his queen, established order and peace throughout the universe, with Deviluke as a central capital. According to Zastin it took Gid ten years to end all conflicts spread throughout the universe.

However, after the war ended and peace established, Gid became much less serious as a king and appeared to spend much of his time with his hobbies, leaving most of the significant leadership duties to Sephie. With little commitment to his duties as a ruler, Gid spent some time, but little serious effort, seeking an heir for his throne by arranging his daughter, Lala, to meet various marriage suitors, most of whom happen to be complete jerks. Eventually, Lala ran away from home and fled to Earth, followed soon by her sisters, with Gid allowing them to stay in the Yuuki household for the time being.

Powers and Abilities Gid vs Sasuga Gid releasing power Devilukean Physiology: Not only is he a member of the Devilukean race (meaning his physical abilities are far greater than most other species), but he is also considered to be the most powerful of them all. He states himself to be able to destroy a whole planet by building up enough power within him (seemingly creating an electrical aura around him and the ground being cracked) and by releasing it. The result of his child-like state is the result of overusing his power.

Superhuman Strength: In his debut, he once showed his massive power when hitting the tennis ball to Sasuga's side at an incredible speed rate at a tennis practice, which makes him faint standing. In his youth, Gid was also described as powerful enough to shift planets from their orbit and collapse stars. Superhuman Speed: Gid can run, move and react at supersonic speeds. The exact limit of his speed is Mach 4 (3000 miles per hour). Superhuman Senses: Gid's senses are superhumanly sharp. His sense of smell allows him to detect people within 40 feet of himself and his hearing allows him to pick up heartbeats at a distance of over 20 feet and hear whispers from the other side of a soundproof wall. Devilukean Tail: Gid's devil-like tail can be used as a weapon. In combat, his tail is blindingly fast enough to relentlessly attack and endanger even the most powerful enemies, giving them too little time to retaliate or regenerate if they could. While all Devilukeans have the power to shoot energy from their tails, Gid's tail is so powerful that he can fire a huge energy wave that spans a very large width, several miles in length, and destroys anything in its path, leaving a huge trail deep in the ground and a city-sized explosion at the end. Powerful Combatant: Though little of his true power has been shown, Gid has shown to be so skilled in combat that he can fight confidently against a powerful opponent, using nothing but his tail as a weapon, easily dodging dozens of attacks at dangerously close range, and with his hands crossed. Relationships Daughters Gid is the father of Lala, Nana, and Momo, whom he can be quite demanding towards when they disobey his orders like running away from home. While his daughters love each other like family, there is little evidence that they also love him as a father, and equally little evidence that Gid really cares for his daughters. In their earlier childhood on Deviluke, Lala and her sisters appear to usually be left alone in their palace by their parents to play around, pull pranks, or study until they get bored.

Because Gid is quite bratty and spoiled, most of his choices regarding his daughters are usually for his own benefit rather than out of love for them. For example, he pushes Lala towards marriage until she decides to flee to Earth. In the manga, when Lala chose Rito as her groom, Gid gleefully pushed them towards their marriage, even already deciding on a wedding date, and threatened to destroy Earth if Rito does not agree. Lala knew that rather than truly respecting his daughter's choice, he's really only pushing their marriage so that he may step down as king and finally be free to fool around.

However, as like any father, Gid is a loving father, though this was not shown during most of his appearance. He found Lala when the latter is lost in a Deviluke forest, and he easily spot the "real" Momo from the shapeshifting Nemesis, saying "no father mistakes his own child".

Sephie Michaela Deviluke It is unknown exactly how his relationship with his wife is, especially considering his intention to step down from the throne to go around doing perverted things to other women. It is not unusual for kings of Deviluke to have concubines, but Gid uniquely has only his one wife instead. Sephie does love Gid a lot, being the one who protected her and first male to resist her charm.

She is described to be hardworking, more reliable and better at politics than Gid is, and their daughters seem to love and admire her a lot more than their father. Also, Sephie is the only person who manages to scare Gid, as Momo claims that not even he goes against his will for fear of incurring his wrath.

Sephie once told Momo that due to the fact that Gid was the only man who resist her charm and fallen in love with him and try be appealing to him but Gid pay no attention to her due to mainly interesting in fighting which result her to force herself on to him and remembered the embarrassed look on his face when she did.

Zastin Zastin is practically Gid's most loyal subject, and he respects him the most as the King of the planet Deviluke and Emperor of the entire Milky Way Galaxy. He is one of the bodyguards who protect the king's family members and would get mad at anyone if they disrespect any of them. Gid seems to disapprove of Zastin being a mangaka.

Yuuki Rito When Rito became engaged to Lala, Gid demanded that he would have to meet Gid's expectations to take care of her, otherwise he would destroy the Earth. He doesn't seem to care for him that much, like when he forced him to marry Lala for his own benefit to step down from the throne and fool around with other girls. However he does seem to trust him enough to take care of his daughters, as they all live within his house.

In his introduction in the manga, Gid was rather forceful of Rito to marry his daughter and become his successor. But after Lala used her invention, Bye-Bye Memory-Kun, to erase herself from the memories of everyone on Earth, it's difficult to determine how they now regard each other, even though the invention mostly failed.

In To Love Ru Darkness, Gid's body is restored to its original form, and it is revealed that he and Rito both still know each other, with Rito remembering meeting him in his child-like state. When Gid brutally defeats Nemesis to the point near death to end her acts of terrorism, Rito saves her by bravely standing up to Gid, convincing him to let Rito change her and even offering to die with her if she doesn't change. Rito expresses his willingness to go that far to save her as his responsibility as a man. Gid relents, now intrigued to see how Rito proves himself a true man.

In the manga, Gid doesn't take his role as king seriously, and wishes to dump the job soon. As of To Love Ru Darkness, it is unknown how Gid regards Rito as his heir and marriage candidate to Lala, but he continues to allow his daughters to live with Rito. But in the first anime series, he is much more critical and antagonistic toward Rito and puts him through challenges to prove himself so that Earth won't be destroyed. However, this is most likely to ensure that his throne is to be inherited by a worthy successor.

Zastin (ザスティン) • Age: Unknown • Hair Color: Silver • Eye Color: Blue • Appearance Zastin has greyish hair and blue eyes. He often seen wearing his demonic-like armor and also wears a cape (sometimes he does wear T-shirt and sweatpants while working on manga). Zastin always carries a big green energy sword, which the blade can disappear to put away easily. Zastin's tail is thin and very scorpion-like in appearance. He is also shown to have quite a muscular upper body.

Personality Zastin is quite formal with those around him, especially with Rito, who is engaged with Lala. He can also be very strict to those less tolerable, mostly to the Deviluke princesses. Despite his skill with the sword, Zastin has a horrible sense of direction, resulting in him getting lost very often (one of the running gags in To Love-Ru), though this makes sense as he is on another planet. Rito states he can be a bit dumb, such as when he brags about his title as assistant chief of a manga artist to his enemy, and he is easily persuaded (Rito once stated he's a gullible idiot.) He also seems to have extremely bad luck, and keeps getting run over by trains and cars (another running gag of To Love-Ru). He also hates admitting defeat or loss as shown in chapter three. Zastin enjoys doing his job as a mangaka, more so than his job as bodyguard (ironically he seems to be a lot better at it). Zastin can be seemingly oblivious. Interestingly whenever he is shown trying to protect Lala, he fails at it horribly.

History Back at his home planet Deviluke, Zastin always looked after Lala and her sisters while their parents weren't present. He would also put up with Lala's experiments, especially when they would cause a ruckus around the royal palace.

Zastin has had a history with the assassin, Black, whom he knows was responsible for destroying the organization, Eden. Zastin and Black have been both allies and enemies in the past.

Plot Zastin came to Earth to bring Lala back to their planet but was defeated by her invention Go-Go Vacuum-Kun. In the Manga, at first, Zastin disapproves of Rito, deeming him weak and subsequently seeks to test his strength. However, once Rito exclaims his opinion of marriage in self-defense, Zastin is swayed by his words (though not in the way Rito intends) and summarily approves of him, believing he truly understands Lala's feelings. While he lets her live on Earth and allows her being engaged to Rito, he also starts to live on Earth to continue his job as her bodyguard.

When Lala's sisters, Nana and Momo, ran away from home for the second time to avoid studying, Gid instructs him to bring them back, but he ultimately fails after being overpowered in battle.

He is currently working as the assistant chief to Yūki Saibai. The funds he gets for his duties are handed to Lala for her use. Zastin has shown a keen interest in becoming a mangaka professionally, and has even won an award for his own manga. He has two assistants that work under him, simply known as Maul and Smutts.

In To Love Ru Darkness, he was made aware about Mea's abilities and questions if she is really to be trusted. After the incident when Yami unwillingly activates her Darkness transformation, and put the whole planet and the Devilukean sister in danger, Zastin began investigating the Transformation Weapon girls. After gathering information from his old acquaintance, Black, who destroyed the organization that created the Transformation Weapons, Zastin came to realize that the rogue Transformation Weapon, Nemesis, was plotting to destroy the political system established by Deviluke at the end of the Galatic War, thus starting another war across the universe. But being unlikely able to defeat her, Zastin instead teleports her, himself, and Rito Yuuki to a cyberdimension, where they are confrontated by the king of Deviluke himself, Gid Lucione Deviluke.

Powers and Abilities Zastin MTLR EP5 02 Zastin displaying his strength.

Devilukean Physiology: Zastin has incredible physical abilities which are common traits amongst Devilukeans:

Devilukean Super Strength: Being from the race of Devilukeans, Zastin possesses tremendous physical strength, such as when he easily picked up Tenjōin Saki's limousine when it was stuck in a ditch. The exact limits of his strength are unknown. Devilukean Super Speed: Zastin can run and move faster than the finest human athlete. He is able to move at supersonic speeds, meaning several times swifter than the speed of sound, which is roughly 760 miles per hour. Devilukean Durability: Zastin possesses extraordinary physical durability, most notably when being hit by moving vehicles such as cars or trains. He can also withstand high caliber bullets, powerful concussive blasts, falls from tremendous heights and blows from powerful super-humans. Devilukean Agility: Zastin's natural balance, agility, and body coordination are beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete. Devilukean Stamina: Zastin possesses extraordinary physical stamina. His muscles generate considerably less fatigue toxins than the musculature of human beings or most other known beings for that matter. Devilukean Healing: If injured, Zastin's accelerated healing factor can heal him to a certain degree. His healing factor enables him to repair cells, body tissues and bones that have been damaged regardless of severity with much greater speed and efficiency than an ordinary human. Devilukean Longevity: Zastin's healing factor also keeps him in optimal health and decreases the rate of his aging by a high degree, granting him a life span that could be several millennia long. Swordsmanship & Martial Arts Mastery: Zastin is shown to be quite skilled at using a sword and is known as the greatest swordsman on his planet. He is also highly skilled in the combat arts of the Devilukeans and could even fight Yami to a tie during their first encounter; however, most of the time, his bad luck takes toll on him and results in miserable failure.

Military Strategy & Field Resourcefulness: Zastin is capable of using the field advantage and is highly trained in military strategy as seen when he lured Yami to a moving train, but can be really clumsy sometimes.

Manga Illustration: Zastin also happens to be a really good at drawing manga, and even received an award for drawing his own.

Equipment Energy Sword: Zastin's primary weapon of choice, a sword with a glowing green blade made of energy that can be easily put away.

Armor: For most of his reacurring appearance, Zastin always has his armor on wherever he goes.

Relationships Gid Lucione Deviluke Out of everyone in the series, Zastin looks up to and respects Gid the most as the King of the planet Deviluke and Emperor of the entire Milky Way Galaxy. He is one of the bodyguards who protect the king's family members and would get mad at anyone if they disrespect any of them.

Lala Satalin Deviluke As the first born and heir to the Planet Deviluke, Zastin shows respect to Lala. Despite his loyalty to her, he often seems to have a miserable time serving her. He encouraged and urged her to behave more properly like a princess, and was forced to follow her when she ran away from home. And many of the troubles caused by Lala would end up giving him trouble as well. It was once said that when Lala was younger, Zastin was the guinea pig for her inventions and tried to run away, only to be tracked down and caught by her robotic search dog, Sniff Sniff Trace-kun.

Nana Astar Deviluke and Momo Belia Deviluke As daughters of the King of Deviluke, Zastin expects them to follow orders as Princesses of Deviluke, but instead they follow their sister to Earth to escape from their studies, which also causes him just as much trouble as Lala did even after he failed to bring them back because he underestimated them for he thought their abilities to talk to plants and animals are not suited for battle.

Yūki Rito At first he didn't accept Rito marrying Lala and becoming the heir to the throne and the future King of Deviluke and Emperor to the Galaxy, stating it's not a position for weaklings and battles him so he would step down. However, after hearing Rito's speech about how marriage would only work if two people love each other, he mistook this as a right that he is the only one suited for Lala. Touched by this, he then accepts Rito's right to marry her, which Rito did not originally intend.

Afterwards Zastin started showing respect to Rito and even called him with a polite honorific "Muko-Dono" (roughly translates to "Master Groom"). He occasionally would help Rito out when he is stuck in a difficult situation involving something from space and would go to great lengths to protect him (even though he often fails in the process).

Yūki Saibai Saibai is a manga artist and Rito's and Mikan's father. Zastin works for him as his chief assistant. The previous assistants quit after Lala's invention helped them work much faster but severely exhausted them. Zastin, along with Maul and Smutts, agreed to take their place in helping Saibai complete his mangas and have been working there ever since (even though they are supposed to be Lala's bodyguards).

Tenjōin Saki Saki became smitten for Zastin ever since he helped lift her car out of a hole in the road. While Saki made a few attempts to get his attention, most of those times, one mishap after another would throw her into an embarrassing situation in front of him, such as revealing her panties to him, which he tries to politely deny seeing, which does little to convince or console her.

While Zastin is formal and polite towards her as he is to anyone else, it is unknown what he feels towards her, but there is little evidence that he has romantic feelings towards her. Saki appears to be the only female character (near his age) with affections for another male character besides Rito, which may cement her as one of few girls who is genuinely not a love interest for Rito.

Maul and Smutts Maul and Smutts are also Devilukean bodyguards like Zastin. Zastin seems to be in charge of them as the two are never seen without him and seem to follow everything he says. They also work under Saibai Yuuki as Mangaka's and also seem to be enjoying it like Zastin.

Villains and Antagonists

Dr. Tearju Lunatique (ティアーユ・ルナティーク) • Age: 20s-30s • Hair Color: Blonde • Eye Color: Blue • Appearance Tearju is a very curvaceous woman with long blond hair and green eyes. She also wears glasses. Most characters noticed that she resembles Yami a lot (being her genetic origin). She often wears black clothing such as a suit and a skirt. Underneath that suit is a white under shirt with a high collar with a green brooch. Similar to her friend, she also tends to wear skimpy, lacy panties and bras, usually either purple or black, that are usually shown anytime she winds up in a perverted situation. Out of all the alien characters, she appears to be more human than all the others.

Her 3-sizes are B96-W56-H90, which makes her the bustiest female in series.

Personality Tearju's personality can be described to be much like Rito. She is very kind to those around her. But she can also be shy and clumsy, both physically and socially, and can sometimes end up in awkward moments. But despite this she is considered to be very smart and knowledgeable.

Tearju cares deeply for Yami like a daughter/little sister and wants to be close to her like before, but doesn't quite know how to approach her after being separated from her for so long and having her personality change so drastically. She also considers Mea her little sister and would also want to be close to her, but Mea greatly denies and rejects it, as was apparently brought up to do so.

History Tearju Mikado TLRD EP10 01 An old photo of the young Tearju and Mikado.

Sometime in her youth, Tearju studied Biotechnology. She was also friends with Ryoko Mikado in school and went their separate ways at some point. Years later, she was part of Eden, an organization that would create Eve (later named Yami). Tearju raised her like a little sister, but the organization had plans to use Eve as weapon, and chased Tearju away. In the aftermath, Tearju had escaped and went into hiding, but is aware of the fall of the organization and that Eve became known as the assassin Golden Darkness.

During the events of To-Love-Ru Darkness, Tearju was found by Mikado, who informed her of Yami's current position. Tearju was brought to Earth and is currently a teacher at Sainan High hoping to establish a better relationship with Yami and perhaps help Mea embrace humanity as well. Nemesis (ネメシス) • Age: Unknown (appears as a child) • Hair Color: Black • Eye Color: Red • Appearance Nemesis is a petite girl with long black hair, golden eyes with vertical silt pupils, and dark skin. Because of her appearance, Rito had mistaken her for a little girl. However, she can change her appearance into anything she desires, such as a crow or a cat, or change herself into a well-endowed adult woman (a benefit of having complete hormonal control over her body). She has taken to giving herself cat ears.

At first she wore a skimpy black dress, but she used her abilities to change it into a black yukata (claiming how effective it is in a fight) with a star-shaped gap symbol on it (similar to the one Yami and Mea have on the chest of their black gothic dresses), and she has a yellow sash wrapped around her waist. When she first changed to the black yukata, she had a cat mask, which, combined with the Taichi figure, covers the left side of her head as decoration. She is shown wearing nothing underneath her clothes and is always naked underneath them.

Personality Nemesis is sadistic, mischievous, domineering and mysterious. She believes that a transformation weapon's only purpose for living is killing. She is often seen hiding in the shadows observing Rito, his friends, and their daily lives through Mea, until she began to approach them herself. She also has an eery and erotic side to her and finds Rito's shyness arousing and would like to have him as her servant. She said that she doesn't have full control over her erotic personality and would act on it on impulse. Upon her first appearance, her erotic tendencies quickly earned an uneasy impression from Rito and a strong disdain from Momo. She can be quite patient, like instead of persuading Yami to return to her old heartless life, she decides to wait until she uses the "Darkness ability", believing that Yami will return to that path naturally and that the "Darkness" will inevitably occur regardless of Yami's relationships on Earth.

Like Mea, she has a sweet tooth; she enjoys eating anything that contains Dark Matter.

She is eerily optimistic and apathetic at all times, and whether things go her way or not, when she is not entertained, she does little to show any negative feelings for any reason. Even after Mea disobeys her and her plan to activate Yami's Darkness transformation failed, she does not appear to mind. And even after a fierce battle left her on the verge of imminent death, she expresses no regrets disappearing after all of the fun and mischief she had, as well as some relief towards the thought of her life coming to an end, indicating that beneath her childlike and bratty demeanor, she's a truly depressed and lonely being.

It is unknown if Nemesis has feelings for Rito, but she enjoys being fused with him, as she teases him when the opportunity presents itself and comments that her life is now more interesting now that she is fused with Rito.

History Nemesis was the result of "Project Nemesis", a different experiment from the project that created Golden Darkness, conducted by the organization known as Eden. The experiment was an attempt to create a living weapon composed of Dark Matter, which was abundant throughout the universe. However, the project was scrapped and abandoned because of the scientists' failure to materialized form. But unknown to them, Nemesis existed as a formless and unseen intelligence, wandering the facilities for years and overseeing the creations of Golden Darkness and Mea, both human-based Transformation weapons, until the organization's collapse at the hands of Black, and Mea's release.

Mea remembers that Nemesis came to the fallen organization where she found Mea and decided to raise her. At that time, both their physical condition were unstable and Nemesis was on the verge of disappearing, so she used her ability to fuse with Mea to stabilize herself. Nemesis always created images of herself to make Mea believe that they are both speaking to each other as separate people, and Mea was unaware that Nemesis existed inside her body.

Nemesis taught Mea that the purpose of a Transformation Weapon is to kill. She also taught her about her sister, Golden Darkness, whom they came to Earth to bring back into space as who she was before.

Powers and Abilities Dark Matter-based Physiology: Nemesis' body consists of dark matter that allows her the trans ability rather than having nanomachines. While she possesses the same common shape-shifting abilities as Yami and Mea, her powers are fundamentally different in nature and possesses some abilities unique to herself.

To love ru wiki contri 4 Nemesis shows off her new wings.

Shape-shifting: Nemesis can alter her appearance and reshape her body to look more adult-like and even change her appearance to look exactly like other people. She can fully transform into animals, even those much smaller than herself, such as a crow or a cat. She can also grow a pair of butterfly wings that gives her the ability to fly. Attire Transformation: She is able to transform her clothing, as seen when she switches between a black nightgown and a yukata. She is also seen wearing a maid outfit. Hair Manipulation: Nemesis is capable of controlling the movement of her hair, altering it's length and transform it into any animate object such as weapons. Vocal Alteration: In addition to her shape shifting abilities, she can also change her voice to sound just like anyone. To love ru wiki contri 3 How Trans-fusion looks within the mind of Mea.

Trans-Fusion: One of Nemesis' own unique abilities, which allows her to fuse her body with that of another person. She was forced to fuse herself with the body of Mea Kurosaki, where she continued to watch things happen around Mea from inside her body. Nemesis explained that she used this ability on Mea because at the time, Nemesis was in a physically unstable condition, and so she needed to exist inside Mea's body as a vessel until she can stabilize herself, and then she can leave Mea's body. While under Trans-fusion, she is able to communicate with Mea, and even create an image of herself in her mind, so as to give Mea the illusion of them speaking with each other face to face in the physical world. This ability is not limited to another Tranformation Weapon, as she is able to fuse with Rito, which gives her the ability to forcefully control his movements for a short amount of time, depending on her current strength. For manipulating other people's body, Nemesis uses a voodoo doll Weapon Transformation: Nemesis is capable of transforming her body into different forms of tools and weaponry of various sizes, most notably blades. Partial Materialization: An ability that Nemesis uses to materialize the scattered dark matter from her body to form hands and weapons from any spacial range without being attached to her body. This can also be used to reconstruct her body to reappear in any location. Regeneration: Her body is nearly immune to physical and light energy attacks since they'll phase right through her, as she can reconstruct herself from any damage taken, however her body won't be able to keep up if taken too much damage. Body Jack: She is able to hijack the bodies of several lesser-minded individuals even if they were conscious beforehand. While under such effects, her victims have the appearance of zombies and borrow a fraction of her strength in order to hold their own in battle. It is also shown that she is able to speak through them, as she speaks through Saruyama in order to communicate with Yami.
