He had a crush on Teruaki and began going insane after his death. Near the end, he resolved to be a man and sacrifice himself like Teruaki did and Nobuaki tried to do, so when the final order to cut the students' bodies was given, he tried to sacrifice himself by offering to cut his own leg with a chainsaw, resulting in his death from blood loss.
Template:Nihongo: Template:Animevoices; Nobuaki Kanazawa is one of the main characters in the Ousama Game series. He is a student from Tamaoka High School who transfers to Kure Academy following the first game. Nobuaki was once a cheerful student with many friends before the first King's Game. Afterwards Nobuaki was so mentally damaged that he tried to transfer to a new school. While at this new school, Nobuaki has extreme difficulty making friends due to his aggressive nature and fear of losing any potential friends. Thus, when the King's Game begun again, Nobuaki tries to get everyone to work together to survive but everyone refused to believe him. After the deaths of many classmates, the remaining survivors, with the exception of Natsuko, gradually begin to trust him and be grateful of his attempt to try to save everyone. During the final battle with Natsuko, his throat was cut and he died, he is seen in the afterlife reunited with Chiemi and his other friends who have waited for him to join them.
Template:Nihongo: Template:Animevoices; Natsuko Honda is the main heroine of Ousama Game The Animation. She was a popular girl in Class 2-1 of Kure Academy who initially had a crush on Nobuaki. She was a very sweet person, usually being the first to introduce herself, and was cheerful and popular because of her outgoing nature. She was a fast runner as demonstrated at the sports relay race and later, at the King's race order. She is shown to be athletic, as she could climb and jump from a wired fence with ease and helped her team win at sports day. She is also emotional and she confides in her friends. It is revealed in Ousama Game: Kigen that she is the older sister of Chiemi Honda. She has a darker, more twisted side to her as a result of the events of Ou-sama Game: Rinjou, where she was the lone survivor, but tries to hide it in hopes of a normal school life. She reveals her true colors when the new King's Game began and Nobuaki did not cooperate with her. She was the antithesis of Nobuaki, firmly believing there can be only one survivor and that selfishness and betrayal were necessary for survival. During the final battle, she died by getting slashed in the back by Riona. With her last breath, she also killed Nobuaki, cutting his throat.
Template:Nihongo: Template:Animevoices; Chiemi Honda is the late girlfriend of Nobuaki and one of the main characters of Ousama Game (Manga adaptation) before the events of Ousama Game The Animation. She was the second to last survivor. Nobuaki and she were given a final order to kill the person they loved the most. Chiemi killed herself by stabbing herself in the chest so Nobuaki could survive.
Template:Nihongo: Template:Animevoices; Naoya Hashimoto is Nobuaki's late best friend and one of the main characters of Ousama Game (Manga adaptation) before the events of Ousama Game The Animation. He died in a dice roll order where one student has to roll a die and name a number of students equal to the number rolled, and the roller and the named students would all get punished. He took the sacrifice to roll the die, rolling a 6.
Template:Nihongo: Template:Animevoices; Ria Iwamura is the third-last survivor in the first King's Game. She was emotionally scarred due to her father raping her when she was younger, resulting in her being quiet and friendless. At first, she was selfishly trying to beat the King's Game by researching on her own, but when there were only three survivors, she reveals to Nobuaki that the King's Game originated from a virus that killed people through hypnosis. She tried to stop the game by deleting the virus from her laptop, but it was a trap and she got punished for trying to quit the game. Her punishment was death by incineration.
Template:Nihongo: Template:Animevoices; Riona Matsumoto is the final survivor of Ousama Game: The Animation in Class 2-1 of Kure Academy. During the game, she does research about it and shares information with Nobuaki. She initially acts tough and makes Nobuaki use the honorific -san suffix when addressing her, but gradually falls in love with him. During the race order, she falls behind due to lack of stamina, but Nobuaki repeatedly sacrifices himself by running behind her and even running backwards, which makes her furious as she did not want to see Nobuaki die. In the final showdown, she kills Natsuko with a chainsaw, but Natsuko takes Nobuaki down with her after declaring her love for him. Afterwards, she dragged Nobuaki's body to the beach and it is implied she committed suicide by drowning.
Template:Nihongo: Template:Animevoices; Kenta Akamatsu is a student in Class 2-1 of Kure Academy. He was a muscular student who was a 'big brother' figure to Nobuaki, coming to his rescue when his classmates beat him up. When Mitsuki broke her phone, Kenta, who was ordered by the King to give any classmate an order of his choice, gave himself an order to protect Mitsuki's life. He accompanied Nobuaki to go to Yonaki village to research about the King's Game, along with Mitsuki. It was where he died, when he failed his order to protect Mitsuki.
Template:Nihongo: Template:Animevoices; Mitsuki Yukimura is a student in Class 2-1 of Kure Academy. She was given an order to text 'DIE' to two other classmates, but resisted and broke her phone. She accompanied Nobuaki and Kenta on the trip to Yonaki Village, where she got a new phone and was caught in a dilemma about whom to text DIE to. At the village, she declared her love for Kenta and wanted to text it to herself so they can both die together. Kenta knocked her out and sent the texts to Natsuko and himself in order to protect Mitsuki's life. But it was insufficient as she had broken her original cellphone, and texts sent on a new phone did not count, so she ended up dying with Kenta anyway.
Template:Nihongo: Template:Animevoices; Teruaki Nagata is a student in Class 2-1 of Kure Academy. He aspired to be a hairstylist and offered to cut Nobuaki his hair on his first day of class, which he eventually did at the finger-breaking game. After being raped by Natsuko due to an earlier King's order and having his phone stolen, he defied Natsuko and tried to kill her by assigning negative points to her at the finger-breaking game, which was unsuccessful thanks to her convincing of Aimi to save her.
