Inu X Boku About Characters (pics will be uploaded tomorrow)

Ririchiyo Shirakiin (白鬼院 凜々蝶 Shirakiin Ririchiyo?)

Voiced by: Rina Hidaka
A half-human, half-demon high school girl who transferred to Room 4 of the Ayakashi Mansion in order to live alone. She yearns to be independent and constantly worries about not being able to communicate with other people properly, one of her reasons for moving. Her SS agent and servant is Sōshi, a fox spirit. She finds out that it was Sōshi who wrote the letters to her (which were meant to be from her fiancé) in chapter 8. Ririchiyo confesses to Sōshi in chapter 10. Though she has characteristics of atsundere, she is actually a tsunshun in terms of personality.
Ririchiyo was killed at the age of 16 after trying to stop the enemy youkai raid after they killed Sōshi. In Part 2, she is reincarnated, but has amnesia after the trauma of losing Sōshi after he protected her. Once she does remember, she gains a resolution to protect everyone. As gratitude for everything she makes Sōshi coffee, and then breaks up her contract with him.

Sōshi Miketsukami (御狐神 双熾 Miketsukami Sōshi?)

Voiced by: Yuichi Nakamura
The assigned SS Agent to Ririchiyo and her servant, Sōshi is the reincarnation of the evil Nine-Tailed Fox. Ririchiyo helped him when she was little. Later on in the series, it is apparent that Ririchiyo had changed him in a way. Very calm, polite, and gentle to people, he has a soft spot for his mistress, blindly obeying her and protecting her with his life if the situation calls for it. He enters a relationship with her when he reads her letter she meant to put into the time capsule. What he wishes for is a family, which he never had. A notable feature is his Heterochromia: his right eye is blue, while the other is a dark gold.
He was killed in action at the end of Part 1 at age 23, protecting Ririchiyo from a band of evil youkai. He is reincarnated but does not remember his previous life. After learning from Kagerō's mother how important Ririchiyo was for the previous Sōshi, he researches about him and becomes Ririchiyo's SS agent. After Ririchiyo regains her memories, she breaks her contract with him, in an attempt to protect him and also because she realizes he is not the same Sōshi she fell in love with.

Renshō Sorinozuka (反ノ塚 連勝 Sorinozuka Renshō?)

Voiced by: Yoshimasa Hosoya
An Ittan-momen demon with several tattoos on his tanned skin, he is the tenant of Room 3. He develops a brother-sister relationship with Ririchiyo, also earning Sōshi's trust in the process. His SS Agent is Nobara, who although bicker quite a bit have a close relationship. He has a very lazy personality. He has been confessed love to many times by girls, but always rejects them, because he knows he will have to separate from them anyway, and while he can reincarnate, humans cannot.
He was one of the only Maison de Ayakashi members not to die due to the enemy youkai raid. As such, he has aged normally, and is now 41 years old. He is currently living with Nobara, and laments over what she has become: A middle school student. He now has a goatee.

Nobara Yukinokōji (雪小路 野ばら Yukinokōji Nobara?)

Voiced by: Yōko Hikasa
The SS Agent assigned to Renshō. She is a Yuki-onna and wears glasses in her human form. She is very interested in fashion and cute girls. Although she states she has no interest in men, she hugs Renshō from behind, and can be surprisingly caring for him.
She was killed at the age of 22 by an enemy band of youkai. She was reincarnated, and is currently a middle school student. Interestingly enough, her breasts are smallest after Ririchiyo's.

Kagerō Shōkiin (青鬼院 蜻蛉 Shōkiin Kagerō?)

Voiced by: Tomokazu Sugita
Tenant of Room 2; Sōshi, Banri, and Natsume's former master, and Ririchiyo's fiancée. Kagerō is eccentric, straightforward, and a narcissist, calling the other tenants "pigs" or "animals". His SS agent is Karuta, who he keeps on a chain and in a maid outfit. He classes people in two different categories - "Sadist" or "Masochist". Ririchiyo used to write him letters when she was young, however, the letters' responses were in fact written by Sōshi.
He died and reincarnated along with the others, and now lives in Maison de Ayakashi in Room #07.

Karuta Roromiya (髏々宮 カルタ Roromiya Karuta?)

Voiced by: Kana Hanazawa
The assigned SS Agent to Kagerō, a Gashadokuro (large skeleton made from the bone of people dead from starvation) whose human form depicts her as a light brown haired (reddish pink in the anime) teenage girl. Though she appears to be "zoned out" most of the time, she's actually very clever, observant, and likes eating. Karuta shows special feelings for Watanuki, who is her childhood friend.
Near the end of Part 1, she was attacked and possessed by enemy youkai who began to use her for their own purposes. She asked Watanuki to kill her, as she could never return to human form. Watanuki yelled to her and told her that he would still be by her side, no matter if she couldn't return to human form. Although she was so happy to hear these sentiments, she was completely taken over by the enemy and was forced to be killed sometime after the raid. In Part 2, she has been reincarnated, and is currently 20-years old. She now has short hair, and her breasts are bigger than in her previous life.

Banri Watanuki (狸 卍里 Watanuki Banri?)

Voiced by: Takuya Eguchi
Tenant of Room 1, Banri is a mixed blood Tanuki demon with an impulsive streak and is very outspoken. Labeling himself a "delinquent", he considers Sōshi his rival because he called him cute, causing Banri to resent him. His SS agent is Zange. He has strong feelings for Karuta Roromiya, who was the reason he decided he wanted to become strong. He deeply hates and is afraid of Kagerō because he was bullied by him as kids and the way he treats Karuta.
Near the end of Part 1, he tries to convince a possessed Karuta that he will be by her side, even if she can't turn back into human form. Although she cries in happiness, she is unable to override the enemy's control, and Karuta as a person is completely erased. He chased after her, but was killed in the battle between the Maison de Ayakashi and the enemy youkai at age 16. He has been reincarnated in Part 2 as a middle school student, but has no memories of Part 1, much like Ririchiyo and Sōshi. His SS is Karuta in Part 2, and is the youngest of all the residents.

Zange Natsume (夏目 残夏 Natsume Zange?)

Voiced by: Mamoru Miyano
The assigned SS agent to Banri, Natsume is a half-human, half-demon wearing a set of black rabbit ears on his head. He claims to be able to "see" things because of his demon heritage. He is a very cheerful individual. He is childhood friends with Sōshi and is very fond of him, calling him "Sou-tan" because of this. Natsume is somewhat an anemic and meddlesome busybody. His motto is "everyone should get along." But he has shown a more sinister side on occasion.
Natsume died of illness at age 24 after Sōshi was killed in the enemy youkai's raid. He was reincarnated, and is currently 21.
