- [Grade-12] Kimiya J. Ja’fari
- “A lot of people don’t know that I have an identical twin sister. She’s the brawn to my brain. At least, that was the case back in Iran. Now? I can certainly beat her ass in a spar, little rat.”
- [Deceased] Zahrā S. Ja’fari
- “Every day I still think of my little sister. Especially when spring comes, it’s like my mind knows best to find a quiet place and silently listen to her the way the waves cross the sand. I miss her dearly. But she’s safe where she is now.”
- [Adult] Azīm Rashid Ja’fari
- “That bastard. I thought the old fuckin’ fart died. Instead, he’s been playing nurse. Only to get dragged with him to Puebla.”
- [Adult] Father
- “I’d rather choke on my own spit than talk about him.”
- [Adult] Mother
- “Same fuckin’ shit. Just a little less vulgar.”
- [Grade-8] Valerie Ja’fari* Lenue De’Vill-Tadić
- “The day I got that telegram from Valerie while living in the UK wasn’t a shock at all. But what did shock me was that sudden growing bond that would turn me into what felt like a mother. I cherish her deeply. I’d kill for her.”
- [Grade-12] Riri Ja’fari-Valetov
- “She was one of the first two people in Akuyami that I’ve grown relatively close to. If it wasn’t for them, I wouldn’t have felt welcomed into the family.”
- [Grade-12] Yoru Ja’fari-Katakuri
- “Also, the second person in Akuyami that I’m quite fond of. Both he and Riri have earned my favor ever since I took a title in the family. Never thought I needed a brother until I met Yoru.”
- [College][B] Teddy A. Jökull
- “Ah, my sister. I still can’t wrap my head around it. It doesn’t feel fitting for me to be an equal to her, despite her being the reason I’ve gotten this strong. I have much to thank her for, but I sincerely wish to give back what she’s already given.”
- [Adult] Pýrit ‘Rip’ Jökull
- “I met him vaguely on a random afternoon with Miss Teddy. Not much to give, but he indeed was a man to respect.”
- [Grade-8] Tevfik Jökull
- “He’s a sweethearted boy. It takes everything in me not to squeeze the boy in a bear hug.”
- [Grade-7] Lilja M. Jökull
- “The little troublemaker used to fry my nerves quite a lot back then. But ever since she got that discipline she needed, and started taking my advice more seriously, I can’t help but feel proud of her for how far she’s come.”

- [Grade-11] Kiari
- “The first stray child to break through my boundaries and invade everything. But because of how attached I’ve grown to work, I’ve lost that connection with her. I regret not often taking her with me to learn, but I sincerely could not see myself dragging her along in dangerous work.”
- [Grade-12] Yona
- “I’m not too surprised that our bond isn’t quite close. We haven’t actually said anything much other than a few words and a. . . conversation regarding apples. However, she’s well acquainted with Kiari. So it could only mean I can trust her.”
- [Grade-12] Katsuo D’Amore
- “That boy. . . It started with me hastily offering to train him... to becoming his caretaker within just weeks. I can’t see myself ever hurting him again. Unless he’s indeed needing some talking to. I can only hope for the best for him."
- [Grade-12] Piers Don. Briar Umeko
- “The little lamb. I’ve heard the boy’s grown some horns. I sincerely can’t wait for what he’ll do with them.”
- Oocly: [Adult] Icly: [Grade-12] Chae-Ran Kwakji
- “Chae-Ran tells me about her days in Karakura when she had Kyeon running. How ‘Clown’ often became a mask of escape and freedom. But now she’s embraced her name, always encouraging me to remain who I am and what strength I offer.”
- [Grade-12] Calix A. La-Maison
- “That Daredevil’s been the first person to become my partner in crime. Wild and chaotic. I’d never imagine myself growing attached to that fucker. Yet here we are.”
- Oocly: [Adult] Icly: [Grade-12] Hilaria Amori Caballero
- “The Amori family’s been dishonored. That’s what Hilaria told me after putting me into my third match in Los Monstrous when she had me under her training. I didn’t understand what that had to do with me. Until I joined Akuyami and Jökull. She’s taught me honor, and now I’ll use it to my advantage.”
- [Grade-12] Miyabi A. Akuyami
- “When I first met her, I wasn’t expecting much of a connection for a while, ever since Racer was arrested. But that took a turn when we both started working together in our respective divisions, while I was still in Akuyami. I respect her, and I expect good things from her.”
- [College][M] Inari Lenue
- “. . .Amīratī. Yā lil-āliha, sa-afʿalu ayya shayʾin litakūna lī waḥdī.”
- [Grade-12] Vy Zoju
- “For some reason, I can’t quite say no to her. Like how unexpected our friendship had bloomed. But she’s gotten close enough to be a soft spot of mine. She’s sweet.”
- [Grade-12] Feuz Beltrán
- “He’s like a brother to me. Perhaps a younger one, since I care about him quite a lot. Anyone thinks to fuck with him, I’ve already made it clear once I don’t give second chances.”
- [Grade-12] Chatri Praseritsang
- “He’s kindhearted. At least that's how I’d like to describe his first impression on me. But I still worry for that boy. . .”
- [Grade-12] Lyric Athinganos
- “Ah, but Lyric’s got him- Fuck, gas prices are up again by the way.”
- [Grade-12] Racer R. Akuyami
- “The man himself. Akuyami’s heir and leader. Or what they call the ‘Shodan.’ He has pride in his line. I respect that. And to be fair, he’s also a menace. Gods, what would Karakura do if he did return. . .”
- [Grade-12] Minji Esposito
- “Uhm. . something about a couch. I guess.”
- [Grade-12] Ollie H. Smith Umeko
- “Car mechanic. He’s very convinced I apparently raised him. I’m not sure what that means. . . since we’re the same age. But if he means I’ve taught him any lessons. . . I suppose. . I did?”
- [Grade-12] Quetzalli Celeste Quintero May
- “Ever since I left Karakura, I had given her the responsibility to look after my strays. Not because I had to leave abruptly, but I see her a much better fit as a caretaker than me. After all, I’m not turning into a good person. And I can’t bear the faults I’d make if anyone gets hurt.”

- [Adult] Senjo Jin-Ryuk
- “Miss Teddy introduced him to me. Or perhaps, we got acquainted. I idolize him, especially his strength. . . I still don’t fucking know how that picture got in my apartment.”
- [College][M] Rayleigh Tachitsu
- “I respect him. His words, if it was him, still follow me like a shadow.”
- [Grade-12] Savo Di Maiori
- “Our rivalry was only because of Akuyami. In reality, his work is respectable now that I’ve learnt why his family runs it. It’s all due to survival. And it’s needed in a fucked up city like this one.”
- [Grade-12] Lavinia Sterling
- “Did you like those books?”
- [Grade-12] Mercurio ‘C.’ Y. Zmeyev
- “That son of a bitch. To think he walks with his chin high and his ego inflated with the way he treats people. . . Fucking disgusting.”
Ani. . .Animals?
- [Bird] Azcalt
- “Strange little bird. . . Very. . . animated.”
- [Fox] Sunny D ‘Yok’
- [Bee] King Benjamin The Bee
