# List of KonoSuba characters

The following is a list of characters that appear in the light novel series KonoSuba by Natsume Akatsuki and its various spin-offs.

## Kazuma's party
### Kazuma Satou (佐藤 和真, Satō Kazuma)

    Voiced by: Ryōta Ōsaka (drama CD), Jun Fukushima (Japanese); Arnie Pantoja (English).
    A 17-year-old boy who became a hikikomori, shutting himself off from others and becoming obsessed with video games, after his childhood friend rejected him in middle school. While on his way home from buying a video game, he tries to save a classmate from being hit by a tractor that he mistakes for a speeding truck and dies from acute stress reaction, after which he is transported to a fantasy world and becomes a role-playing game character. He has average stats in crucial categories, but above-average intelligence and high luck, neither of which are important to adventurers. Because he never chooses a class, Kazuma is referred to as an "adventurer" and can learn basic skills and spells that would otherwise be exclusive to a single class, such as stealing, archery, monster detection, and basic magic and learns to overcome the limitations of his classless status by combining skills and spells. Because he often flirts with women, except for Aqua, who he finds attractive but is not in love with, his companions initially see him as a pervert hopeless in love, but over time he proves himself to be reliable and useful when the situation calls for it. Despite this, Megumin and Darkness fall in love with him over time, though he initially rejects Darkness when she confesses to him.

### Aqua (アクア, Akua)

    Voiced by: Kaori Fukuhara (drama CD), Sora Amamiya (Japanese); Faye Mata (English)
    The goddess of water who likes to be worshipped for her status, especially by her devoted religion, the Axis Cult. She judges humans to be sent to the RPG world until Kazuma forces her to accompany him after provoking him by mocking his death. She is energetic and prideful, splurges most of the time, and is a crybaby, often bursting to tears when upset. As an archpriest and goddess, she is powerful against demons and the undead and can resurrect the recently deceased and purify water through her touch. She has high stats in both magic and physical capabilities, though her intelligence and luck are low. As well, rather than learning combat-oriented skills, she spends most of her skill points learning her Nature’s Beauty skill.

### Megumin (めぐみん)

    Voiced by: Maaya Uchida (drama CD), Rie Takahashi (Japanese); Erica Mendez (English)
    A 14-year-old archwizard who belongs to the Crimson Demons clan – humans with dark hair and crimson eyes, a high affinity for magic, and chūnibyō characteristics. She refuses to learn other skills and knows a single spell: a powerful Explosion spell that depletes her mana and incapacitates her after a single use. Because of the spell's strength and side effects, she struggles to find a party to accept her before meeting Kazuma. She eventually falls in love with Kazuma. She confesses her feelings to him, leading to them becoming a couple, but their secret is revealed when Darkness also confesses her love for him, and is immediately rejected. She is the protagonist of the spin-off Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Bakuen wo!.

### Darkness (ダクネス, Dakunesu)

    Voiced by: Marina Inoue (drama CD), Ai Kayano (Japanese); Cristina Vee (English)
    An 18-year-old crusader who possesses powerful offense and defense, but lacks the accuracy to deliver her attacks.

It is later revealed that her true name is Lalatina Dustiness Ford (ダスティネス・フォード・ララティーナ, Dasutinesu Fōdo Raratīna), and that she is a noble from the influential Dustiness family who became a crusader against her father's wishes. She, like Megumin, eventually falls in love with Kazuma, but is constantly rejected by him.

    A general who ends up taking over management of Wiz's magic shop. He is the devil of foresight and one of the dukes of hell and possesses the ability to read information about others. This ability does not work on those who are as powerful or more powerful than him, including the Devil King's generals, Aqua, and other gods, and Kazuma, whose cunning nature makes him difficult to read. He also has powerful combat skills, which he refuses to use on humans. Planning to resign from his position as a boss, Vanir discovers a previously-cleared dungeon which he turns into his hideout, hoping to achieve his dream of tricking those who defeat him in battle into thinking there were riches inside a treasure chest, only to discover a piece of paper mocking them. He is subsequently defeated by Megumin's Explosion spell and forms a second body to live in, moving to Axel and beginning to work at Wiz's shop.

Legend of Crimson”.

### Wolbach (ウォルバク, Worubaku)

    Voiced by: Yuki Kaida (Japanese); Reba Buhr (English)
    The evil goddess of violence and sloth, who the Devil King's subordinates worship. She uses her vast reserves of mana to cast Explosion magic on the Belzerg fort at the frontlines, then teleport to safety.
