;{{nihongo|Yen Ragun|等軍焔|}}
:A sixth grader, the eldest son in the Ragun family. He gets excellent grades, takes things seriously, and has a strong sense of responsibility. When fighting Maga, he is in charge of spreading barriers and analyzing the enemy.
:Intelligent, and good with making inferences, as is Koga. A good gakushi and often teams up with Jin while fighting maga. As a perception type, he can understand Maga. As shown in the second book, he hates slimy things, so he hates natto (fermented soybeans). He enjoys swimming and he is in the 6th grade, the last grade of elementary.

;Koga (Maga)
:Yen's Maga. A perception-type Maga who excels at gathering data, analyzing, and remembering.


;{{nihongo|Jin Ragun|等軍陣|}}
;{{nihongo|Jin Ragun|等軍陣|}}
:A fifth grader, the second son in the Ragun family. He's just a little conceited, with a short fuse, but he relies heavily on others. When fighting Maga, he's in charge of attacking.
:Yen's younger brother. Almost the complete opposite. Hotheaded and rash - seemingly not very bright either. However, he's still loyal to his brother, and loves him very much. He's never quiet and hates peppers. He is just one grade behind Yen as well as age. He calls his brother "Yen-nii".

;Sora (Maga)
:Jin's Maga. An attack-type Maga with strong offensive power.


;{{nihongo|Ayato Housui|峰水綾人|}}

:Ayato is related to Yen and Jin. Apparently, he's their cousin. He knows of Yen and Jin being Gakushi, and isn't bothered by it at all. He's quiet and polite. His nickname is "Aya". Yen almost thought he was a girl after forgetting what happened when he first encountered him in his house.


;Miki Kirishima

:Akane's editor. A single 28-year-old who likes to crossdress, he's currently looking for a significant other.

;Suguru Mikami
;Suguru Mikami
:A Gakushi like Yen and Jin, he has just become the head of the Mikami branch of the Ragun family. When he's called ''branch'' he snaps.
:Suguru is a gakushi of the Mikami. The Mikami is a 'branch' of the Ragun. He appears to be the silent type at first - strong, cool and collective - but that's not all that there is to him. He hates being called "Branch Family" and Jin for calling him that. Besides that, it's very possible for Suguru to be nerve-wracked.


;Kana Mikami
;Koga (Maga)
:Younger sister of Suguru, she has a huge crush on Jin, whom she had mistaken for Yen.
:Yen's maga companion. Koga cares for Yen very much, and reflects on Yen: Koga is intelligent, and makes a good team with Sora - Jin's maga. However, Koga lacks in attacking.
