Madou Monogatari series

 * Arle/アルル (Voiced by Mie Sonozaki in the Japanese version and by Erica Mendez in the English dub) - A young girl with magical powers. She is cheerful, but prone to making snarky comments. She attacks with elemental magic such as Fire, Ice Storm, and Thunder, but also knows some other magic such as Diacute, Heaven Ray and her signature Bayoen. Arle states that she wears the same clothes 365 days a year. Her favorite color is blue.


 * Carbuncle/カーバンクル (Voiced by Tamaki Nakanishi in the Japanese version and by Erin Fitzgerald in the English dub) - Arle's pet friend that only says "gugu". He used to be the pet of Satan, but stuck around with Arle ever since. He has a tendency to wander off in search of adventure, thus creating many wacky situations. He has a strange ability to fire a laser from his forehead.


 * Schezo/シェゾ (Voiced by Masakazu Morita in the Japanese version and by Ben Lepley in the English dub) - A dark wizard who possesses ancient magic and wields the Dark Sword. He has a tendency to drop scathing remarks, as well as a tendency to utter carelessly worded comments, oftentimes with his catchphrase "I want you!". This oftentimes leads to others calling him a pervert or creeper, much to his chagrin. Deep within his cool and collected personality, he harbors a liking for cute animals.


 * Rulue/ルルー (Voiced by Kanako Kondou in the Japanese version and by Kira Buckland in the English dub) - Arle's rival and a powerful martial artist. She's in love with the Dark Prince, which means she'll pretty much do anything he says. Most of those orders involve hassling Arle, which she has no problem with given that she's jealous of Arle's magical powers.
