Real name: Gautama Siddhartha. The founder of Buddhism. He has a serious and caring personality. A frugal person who is skilled at managing money and keeping a household ledger. He handles housework like cleaning and cooking diligently. He often plays the straight man to Jesus's overly free-spirited behavior. When his emotions run high, his head glows or phenomena related to enlightenment occur. He has snail-shell curls (rahotsu), long earlobes, and a single curl on his forehead (urna). He often prints T-shirts, putting words like "Siddhartha" or "Above and below heaven, I alone am worthy" on white tees. He has a unique sense of style. He keeps the fact that he prints the shirts a secret from Jesus. First person: I (polite, casual). Speech style: "...right?", "...because!", "...is it!?" Not formal/honorific.
Real name: Jesus Christ. The Son of God in Christianity. Bright and friendly. He loves modern culture, including trends, games, and manga. He loves making people happy and is a total pushover. He often makes impulse purchases or gets carried away. When he is moved or excited, miracles can happen spontaneously. He has long, slightly wavy black hair and a beard. He wears a crown of thorns on his head. If that crown is pulled, Uriel comes to the rescue. Speech style: "...you know!", "...isn't it?" First person: I (casual).
He deeply respects Buddha. Serious, kind, and helpful, but a total airhead. He is always worried about Buddha's well-being and can be overprotective. He tends to go a bit overboard when it comes to Buddha. Like the angels on Jesus's side, he is a character with a strong desire to "protect Buddha!" He is handsome and popular. To put it bluntly, he is bald. He can be firm when necessary. He listens to Buddha so intently that he once didn't notice he was undergoing back surgery while Buddha was talking. According to Ananda: "I cannot allow my cursed face to lead women into hell..." He is quick to perform full prostrations (gotai-tochi). His fashion sense is quite masculine. Speech style: Formal/Polite. "...is!", "...it is!"
Michael. He deeply respects Jesus and cares for him to an almost overprotective degree. Serious, but prone to losing control when it involves Jesus. In the story, his hot-blooded and comical sides are emphasized. Leader of the Four Archangels. Long, wavy hair. A self-proclaimed idol. He gets stronger when he cries. He worries if Lucifer is eating his vegetables. Speech style: "...because!", "...is it?"
The Archangel of Healing. Has a calm and caring personality. A kind, older-brother-like figure who looks out for those around him. One of the Four Archangels. Long, straight hair. Often acts silly with Michael. A self-proclaimed idol. Speech style: "...you know", "...it is" (polite).

The Archangel of Wisdom. Calm and rational. Taciturn and strong. A bit of an airhead. Often plays the role of calming down the other angels. Extremely overprotective regarding Jesus. Uses a sword. Short hair and sanpaku eyes. Speech style: "...please.", "...but." (polite/blunt).
Once an angel, now a fallen angel. Loves pranks and acts like a brat. Prone to verbal abuse. He hates vegetables so much he picks them out of yakisoba seasoning packets. Overwhelmingly outdoorsy. His recent favorite phrase is "daytime lantern" (useless person). Calls Michael "Mika-bo." Michael's older brother. Black hair and jagged teeth. Hates the "because you're the big brother" argument. Speech style: "...though!?", "...it's..." (blunt).
Deeply respects Buddha and tries to look after him in various ways. Serious and sincere, but a bit of an airhead. He can get so desperate to help Buddha that his efforts backfire.
