Sekirei/Characters


These are the prominent human characters of Sekirei.

Ashikabi

Minato Sahashi

Voiced by: Shinnosuke Tachibana (JP), Joel McDonald (EN)

Minato has failed college entrance exams twice due to being unable to cope with pressure. As a result, he is seen by others as an idiot and a loser. His life changes immensely when he first meets Musubi and becomes her Ashikabi. As he gains more Sekirei over the course of the story due to his kind heart, he becomes a pivotal and powerful player in the Sekirei Plan.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Above the Influence: Minato is trying his best to remain a gentlemen... even with all his Sekirei hitting on him.
  • Action Survivor: The major essence of his Badass moments.
  • Big Good: For having a lot of loving, very powerful Sekirei.
  • Big Brother Instinct: He has it, but in the past he was bad at following through with it. Is doing a much better job with Kuu.
  • Book Dumb: He does not do well under pressure.
  • Celibate Hero: For now.
  • Depraved Bisexual: No, of course he isn't, but after Homura is seen to be part of Minato's group, this is added to his scary reputation as Ashikabi of the North. A conversation between two minor Ashikabi in Chapter 118:

Mutou: An unparalleled Ashikabi who will even wing another man... We should be careful he doesn't try and sneak up behind us.
Kunimitsu: I don't really want to think about that...

Tropes exhibited by this character include:

Hayato Mikogami

Voiced by: Jun Fukuyama (JP), Todd Haberkorn (EN)

Tropes exhibited by this character include:

Izumi Higa

Voiced by: Takuma Takewaka (Season 1), Junichi Suwabe (Season 2) (JP), Jerry Jewell (EN)

The head of a powerful pharmaceutical company. He is ambitious, cold, calculating and the most manipulative of the Ashikabi. He holds sway over other Ashikabi and their Sekirei through coercion and blackmail.

Chiho Hidaka

Voiced by: Sayori Ishizuka (JP), Janét Mason (EN)

Tropes exhibited by this character include:



Sanada Nishi

Voiced by: Kisho Taniyama (JP), Charles Baker (EN)

Like Minato, he also cares for his Sekirei. However, he's one of the few, if not the only, Ashikabi willing to join them in combat.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:

Natsuo Ichinomiya

Voiced by: Kousuke Toriumi (JP), Anthony Bowling (EN)

An MBI clerk for the pharmaceutical department and Ashikabi of the Disciplinary Squad. He has a rather cynical outlook on life, and it is reflected in his blasé attitude towards the Sekirei Plan. He seems indifferent to the wellbeing of his Sekirei but relates well to Karasuba.

Tropes exhibited by this character include:
  • Bishonen
  • Cool Car
  • Dissonant Serenity: In Phase 3. He remains calm and resumes a conversation with Minato after both had nearly been killed and the battle goes on around them.
  • It Amused Me: His views on the Sekirei Plan.
  • The Mourning After: He lost his lover in a war and related his feelings about being angry at the world thereafter to Karasuba. She became his Sekirei as a result.
  • Mr. Exposition: He tells some important information to Minato.
  • Nietzsche Wannabe: Explains to Minato how Sekirei die if their Ashikabi is killed. Then asks Minato why he doesn't just kill him to be rid of the Disciplinary Squad that is helping keep the awful Sekirei Plan in play.
  • Non-Action Guy
  • Sharp-Dressed Man
  • Spell My Name with an "S": Ichinomi or Ichinomiya?
  • The Stoic
  • Invisible to Gaydar: Much to Benitsubasa's frustration.
  • While Rome Burns: It doesn't matter what kind of chaos the Sekirei Plan has caused or currently causing. He remains calm and isn't bothered. He's angry at the world and no longer cares what happens to it.

Haruka Shigi

Voiced by: Nobuhiko Okamoto (JP), Josh Grelle (EN)

He is Kuno's Ashikabi. He has much in common with Minato and even lives in his old apartment.

Takehito Asama

Miya's late husband who was friends with Seo. A researcher of the MBI, he was the discoverer of the winging system, Norito, and the existence of the Ashikabi. He was the adjuster of the first generation Disciplinary Squad, Miya, Matsu, Kazehana, Karasuba, and Mutsu. He also did the adjusting for Homura, Uzume, Hikari and Hibiki. Takehito was against the Sekirei Plan, and Seo implicates Hiroto in having something to do with Takehito's death. A flashback scene, though, indicates Hiroto told Takehito not to do what got him killed. Karasuba goaded him into doing it anyway by pointing out several Sekirei would die if he didn't.
