Characters

Sakurada family

Akane Sakurada (櫻田 茜 Sakurada Akane)
Voiced by: Kana Hanazawa[1][2]
The main viewpoint character, Akane is the third daughter and fourth child of the Sakurada family. She hates being the center of attention, due to a childhood trauma and being followed by cameras all day, and as such aims to be king to get rid of the cameras, despite how ironically she would get more attention on herself if she succeeds. Her ability is Gravity Core[n 1], which allows her to manipulate the gravity of herself and anyone she touches, as well as allowing her to increase her speed and strength. Despite her shyness, she has a strong sense of justice and is her class' representative. She's completely unaware that she has a fan club at school. Once, Aoi and Kanade wanted her to become a more confident person so they give her an alter-ego as a superhero named Scarlett Bloom (スカーレットブルーム Sukāretto Burūmu), basing her on a fictional television superhero, Rose Typhoon. Akane thinks this as a great disguise not knowing that the citizens and the Sakurada siblings were all aware of her true identity and only played along with the charade for her.
Aoi Sakurada (櫻田 葵 Sakurada Aoi)
Voiced by: Ai Kayano[1][2]
Eldest child of the Sakurada family. Her ability is originally said to be Invisible Work[n 2], which allows her to do anything once she has learned it. However this is only a front for her true ability, Absolute Order[n 3], which allows her to order anyone under her bidding but she keeps this as a secret from everyone except her father, as she is afraid of this power and has very little control over it. It is also because of this that she feels she does not deserve to be king, despite having the highest chance according to the pre-election rankings.
Shū Sakurada (櫻田 修 Sakurada Shū)
Voiced by: Ryōhei Kimura[1][2]
Second child and eldest son of the Sakurada family. He is the twin of Kanade. His ability is Transporter[n 4], which allows him to teleport him and anyone he touches to a certain location. He has stated that he is too busy making sure Kanade is not chosen as king to be campaigning for and try to become king himself, despite knowing her agenda to become one. Although not really showing it, Shū has a crush from his childhood, which makes it a reason why he prefers twintailed girls. In the past, Shū wanted to become a professional soccer player but when Kanade accidentally injured his legs, his current condition prevents him from joining advanced sports. He is the second member of the Akane Fan Club. He greatly resembles his father when he was his age.
Kanade Sakurada (櫻田 奏 Sakurada Kanade)
Voiced by: Kaori Ishihara[1][2]
Third child and second daughter of the Sakurada family. She is the twin of Shū. Her ability is Heaven's Gate[n 5], which allows her to create objects using materials within a certain area. In order to materialize them, she has to pay the amount of money it takes to use the requested object, which forces her to hold down a job and keep a vast amount of money estimated to be as much as the country's national savings. Among her siblings, Kanade has the strongest desire to become king. She is also vice president of the student council. Because she accidentally injured Shū's legs in the past, Kanade's motive for becoming the king is to advance the country's medical system in order to cure him and correct her past mistake.
Haruka Sakurada (櫻田 遥 Sakurada Haruka)
Voiced by: Ayumu Murase[1][2]
Fifth child and middle son of the Sakurada family. He is the twin of Misaki. His ability is Lots of Next[n 6], which allows him to calculate the possibilities of a situation effortlessly. He tends to be the straight man in the antics of his siblings.
Misaki Sakurada (櫻田 岬 Sakurada Misaki)
Voiced by: Eriko Matsui[1][2]
Sixth child and fourth daughter of the Sakurada family. She is the twin of Haruka. Her ability is All for One[n 7], which allows her to multiply herself up to seven times, which all represent aspects of her personality and the seven deadly sins: Yuniko (ユニコ) (wrath), Revi (レヴィ) (envy), Inari (イナリ) (greed), Bubu (ブブ) (gluttony), Bell (ベル) (sloth), Shaura (シャウラ) (lust), and Raio (ライオ) (pride). Since each copy excels in each of their aspects, Misaki gets annoyed that that makes her look bland in comparison as she doesn't excel in anything.
Hikari Sakurada (櫻田 光 Sakurada Hikari)
Voiced by: Yui Ogura[1][2]
Seventh child and fifth daughter of the Sakurada family. Her ability is God Hand[n 8], which allows her to increase or reverse the growth of a living being for 24 hours. Inspired by Sacchan's performance, Hikari tries to become an idol, under the name Light Sakuraba (桜庭 らいと Sakuraba Raito), but finds it futile to draw votes for her since she isn't using her real name or age as an idol.

Voiced by: Shiori Katsuta[1][2]
Eighth child and youngest son of the Sakurada family. His ability is Limit Over[n 9], which increases his strength to a superhuman level. He tends to speak in an old fashioned way and likes to think of himself as a hero.
