Ringo (voiced by Tomoyo Kurosawa)

Figue (voiced by Nanako Mori)
An agent of Aion, like Ringo. Cool and discreet, she is like an older sister to Ringo, who pushes forward at her own pace. Figue also has an interest in and admiration for humanity, and is extremely friendly towards humans. She specializes in information analysis, and handles logistical support.
Arrow (voiced by Kaito Ishikawa)
An agent of the Devil Summoner society Yatagarasu. One of the “targets to protect to avert the end of the world” detected by Aion. He was killed while undercover, but was revived by Ringo’s Soul Hack. He is usually a quiet young man who does not say much. But he is also honest, passionate, and highly values morality. Because of this, he and Milady often clash.
Milady (voiced by Ami Koshimizu)
An agent of the Devil Summoner society Phantom Society. She was killed by an ally for an unknown reason. After being revived by Ringo’s Soul Hack, she accompanies Ringo in pursuit of the reason behind her death. She is calm and rational. She places a lot of emphasis on rationality and efficiency, and can sometimes make ruthless decisions, but her past experiences seem to play a part.
Psyzo (voiced by Masaya Matsukaze)
A freelance Devil Summoner. He was killed by an agent of Phantoms Society, but was revived by Ringo’s Soul Hack. He accompanies Ringo and the others in pursuit of a certain objective.
