List of Popotan characters
He moves in with the three sisters because they charge cheap rent and he likes staying in a house full of girls; however, he quickly learns he must change his slacker ways.
The three sisters, Ai, Mai and Mii, all have supernatural powers that differ based loosely on their personality type.
[7] Aged 18, she is the only major character with large breasts and often wears a Santa Claus-style hat over her green hair.
She also seems to be the de facto caretaker of the sisters' pet ferret, Unagi, which hides under her hat.
[citation needed] Mai (まい), the middle sister at 14, has pink hair and usually wears sporty clothes.
Mai is constantly reminded of her small breast size by her younger sister Mii, which causes her to lose her temper.
Early in the season she had problems with constantly moving; because she thought everyone hated her after making friends and then abandoning them, she became so depressed that she refused to go to school.
Mai discovers that Konami's daughter has more in common with her than a name: she, like her namesake, feels that everyone hates her.
Also, though she passes through time like the rest of the girls, her very naivete and energy allow her to overcome most of the jumps with ease.
In the anime it was a specialized cosplay costume she had created to mimic a magical girl television show which cost a lot of money, but Ai seemed easily able to pay for it.
[citation needed] Mea (メアー), the sisters' maid, who is sometimes referred to as Mare in the visual novel and Mear in the fan book, is actually a lifelike android that has existed for a long time.
She appears completely unemotional, especially at the beginning of the game, but she has her own desires and becomes friendlier with Chris as the story progresses to varying degrees depending upon whether it's her balls or not.
In the anime, Mii constantly points out Mea's small breast size, though she does not lose her temper like Mai.
She starts out more robotic-like, but becomes less so as the story progresses, such as in Episode 4 when she becomes concerned and fixes the doll of a malevolent-but-lonely child's spirit and seems to make some emotional connection to it.
[14] While Mea is listed officially as an android for the anime,[17] it is unclear while watching Popotan that this is the case as there is no given reference, beyond her personality, to that effect.
[citation needed] Shizuku (雫) can be recognized by light-green hair and a similarly colored poncho.
[citation needed] Nono (のの) is a shy, blue-haired shrine maiden-in-training and daughter of the Goshintai clan who takes her training seriously.
Depending upon how the story unfolds, Claude's appearance may be closer to that of a minor character in certain scenarios, though he still plays a key role in several endings.
He is central to Konami's scenario as he attempts to rape her in it after he and some other members of his band seduce her, specifically because she has a relation with Chris.
In the year 2000, as an adult, Daichi's daughter takes a picture at the beach and he sees the mansion where the girls lived,[10] but obviously not in the same location he visited it.
[citation needed] Keith (キース, Kīsu) plays a role, along with Mea, as a "guide"[14] and has special abilities similar to the girls.
He first appears wearing a business suit with his distinguishing white hair in an attempt to help out Ai dissuade an adult Daichi who she really is because of the nature of the mansion and their agelessness.
While it appears he's trying to work against the girls, in one of the final scenes he's shown to be content with the decision they eventually make.
[citation needed] Kokoa (ここあ) has brown hair pulled back in a double braid and wears glasses.
In the anime, she is essentially the family's pet and is found usually around Ai and dislikes Mii who torments her at times.
[13] In the final episode, an adult Mai explains the travels to Daisuke, the male child of Asuka and Daichi.
[citation needed] Miyuki (みゆき) is a young girl who lives at the hospital due to having a weak body since birth.
She enjoys watching the "Magical Girl Lilo" cartoon and after her father meets Mii who is at the cosplaying with the evidential outfit.
[citation needed] Resin model kits for all of the major protagonists as well as other important female characters have been released,[23][24][25][26] several of which are in different poses [27][28] and Mai's displaying a bare chest.
[29] Petit Ferret also released a cell-phone card set, dripping matt, and other items based around the anime's protagonists.
