#47. L-ElfA main character from "Valvrave the Liberator" L-Elf is secret agent of the Dorssian military. He is an excellent strategist and his innate ability to calculate possibilities has been referenced to be almost prophetic in nature. His name means L11 in German. L-elf is known by ARUS as the "One Man Army" for having killing almost 5000 soldiers single-handedly. He always carries around a photo of the Dorssian Princess Liselotte who had saved his life when he was younger, and apparently holds her dear. He is considered a traitor by Dorssia due to the actions Haruto commits while in control of his body, and is effectively stranded on Module 77. While claiming that he intends to bring about a revolution in Dorssia, he tries to convince Haruto to become his ally. His real name is Michael.

#43. Haruka KotouraHaruka is a girl from a wealthy family, in the series "Kotoura-san", who was born with the psychic ability to read minds. Because she didn't understand this ability as a child, she would often blurt out what people were thinking, which caused her to be hated by her classmates and even her parents. The constant fear of losing those important to her had left her alone and unwilling to let anyone get close to her. That is, until the day she meets Yoshihisa. Whilst typically soft-spoken and timid, she becomes incredibly flustered whenever she is exposed to Yoshihisa's lewd fantasies.
