Londo Bell Squadron

Amuro Rei/Ray

Bright Noa

Chan Agi

Hathaway Noah

Kayra Su

Astonage Mendoza


Neo Zeon

Char Aznable

Quess Paraya

  • Blue and Orange Morality: A rare human case - she's perhaps the best example in the series of how alien someone who operates purely according to Newtype urges would actually be.
  • Dark Action Girl
  • Fallen Princess
  • Girlish Pigtails
  • Heroic Sacrifice: Her last act was to push Hathaway's MS out of the way of the missiles that eventually killed her.
  • Lonely Rich Kid: Her family's neglect of her her hints that she might have been like this.
  • Love At First Sight: All Newtypes are drawn to each other, but Quess latches onto her fellow posthumans like a remora in heat. Especially Char.
  • Little Miss Badass: She's just 13.
  • Maria Kawamura
  • Names to Run Away From Really Fast: Her last name is pronounced "Pariah."
  • Parental Neglect: Neither her father nor her stepmother pay any attention to her.
  • Patricide: Semi-knowingly kills her father. She can't quite figure out whether she's upset about it or not.
  • Precocious Crush: Has a very ugly one on Char. She thinks he returns the favour.
  • Psychic Powers: Char recruited her for her Newtype abilities.
  • Psycho Supporter: If she were more emotionally stable she'd never support Char.
  • Spoiled Brat: Enough so that her stepmother decided staying on Earth to await a Colony Drop was preferable to evacuating on the same shuttle as Quess.
  • Teens Are Monsters: Her upbringing never really got round to the 'instil a basic moral compass' part, and she relies on her Newtype sensitivity to guide her instead. It... doesn't work out so well.
  • Unlimited Wardrobe: Changes clothes several times in the movie.
  • Unskilled but Strong: She's a thirteen-year-old combat novice, and arguably the most powerful Newtype in the Universal Century. The latter outweighs the former by quite a bit.
  • Unwitting Pawn: Char is playing Quess like a fiddle. She honestly thinks he's in love with her.
  • With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: Dear Lord, yes. Quess's Newtype powers basically overwrote her personality once they manifested.
  • Yandere: Towards Char, and briefly Amuro.

Gyunei Guss

Nanai Miguel

Rezun Schneider

Others

Cameron Bloom

  • I Want My Beloved to Be Happy: For Mirai, he'd do anything. So he helps Bright as much as he can, specially by leaking confidential Feddie info to Londo Bell, so Earth won't be destroyed and she and Cheimin will survive. Considering he could be executed or trialed if caught, this is a BIG change from his MSG portrayal.
  • Older and Wiser
  • Tall, Dark and Handsome

Mirai Noah

Cheimin Noah


Christina


Adenauer Paraya

Katherina Paraya

  • Wicked Stepmother: Strongly hinted to be this to Quess, who hates her so much that she bites her hand. This makes Katherina refuse to go into space if it means she'll have to go with Quess, and this lets Mirai send Hathaway off to meet up with Bright.
