OVA Characters

Human World Characters

Mato Kuroi (黒衣マト, Kuroi Mato)

Voiced by: Kana Hanazawa

Mato is the main Human World character of the OVA. She is a 7th/8th grader who loves basketball and is just starting Middle School. Her hair is made up into two short pigtails. She wears a Sailor Fuku consisting of a white top with a dark blue collar and a dark blue skirt. She is also seen later in the OVA wearing a bandage on her right knee after a scraping it during basketball practice. She became fast friends with Yomi Takanashi on her first day of school. She joined the basketball club at her school and, despite her short stature, plays the game exceptionally well, earning her the nickname the "First Year Ace" by her older club members, a nick name she is embarrassed to be called. She lives with her little brother Hiro Kuroi and her mother, whose name is not given in the OVA. She has an affinity for things with stars on them and is reflected in her room decor and clothing. She also carries around a blue cellphone with a star shaped strap on it. After Yomi goes missing she merges with Black Rock Shooter in order to search for her in the "Other World."

Yomi Takanashi (ヨミ小鳥遊, Takanashi Yomi)

Voiced by: Miyuki Sawashiro

Yomi is the other main Human World character of the OVA. She is a quiet and good-natured girl that is also a 7th\8th grader with a talent for volleyball and has just recently moved into Mato's neighborhood after having been in Germany for a while. She and her family have moved around alot during her life, but the OVA doesn't say for what reason. She has long dark green hair done in two wavy styled tails that rest over her shoulders. After having a chat with Mato on her first day they become fast friends and become very close, as shown by Mato buying her a star shaped cellphone strap similar to hers. After Mato joined the Basketball club, Yomi joined the volleyball club so they could be together more often and learned she is actually quite good at it. After Mato befriends Yuu in their second year, however, her jealous and lonely side comes out and eventually leads to her becoming Dead Master. Shortly afterward, she goes missing for unknown reasons which leads Mato to go in search for her in the "Other World." Her name is a play on words as it's pronounced Takanashi (No hawks), but is written as Kotori-Asobi (Little birds play), so her name says "no hawks where little birds play."

Yuu (優, Yuu)

Voiced by: Kana Asumi

Yuu is a supporting character in the OVA. She is an 8th grader who is put into Mato's class after Mato and Yomi were put into different classes at the beginning of their second year. She has short brown hair and brown eyes. Shorter than Mato she couldn't play basketball due to her height so she settled for becoming the basketball club's manager and first aid person. After befriending Mato she became slightly possessive towards Mato, even saying that Yomi's disappearance was nothing to worry about. At the end of the OVA she acts oddly with a dark look on her face. It's implied that her "Other World" self is White Rock Strength when she is shortly shown with similar hair and stature in the OVA.

Hiro Kuroi (黒ヒロ, Kuroi Hiro)

Voiced by: Airi Sakuno

Hiro is Mato's younger brother. 10 years old he has trouble getting up in the morning which causes some grief for Mato as she is mostly tasked with waking him up. Shown only a few times in the OVA it's shown that he likes soccer and brings drinks in for his sister when she has Yomi over. He has black hair and blue eyes like his sister.

Voiced by: Kana Hanazawa

Black Rock Shooter, for which the OVA and song are named for, is the main character for the "Other World." She merges with Mato to help her search for her friend, Yomi, when she became Dead Master and disappeared. Her most notable physical features are her two pigtails, one long and one short; two scars on her torso, and her small chest. The scar below her left breast was given to her by Golden Rock Saw, as shown in the beginning of the OVA. The scar above her right hip was given to her by Dead Master in an earlier battle. Her most distinctive physical feature, however, is her left eye which burns with a bright blue flame. She wears a pair of knee high black boots, a black bikini top, black short shorts with a black belt, and a black hooded jacket with a white star on the back. She carries around two weapons; her Rock Cannon and her crooked Katana. Her Cannon has two main battle modes. Cannon mode and Bladed mode. It's cannon mode has three firing rates. First is rapid fire mode which it can fire up to 20 small rock shells a second. Second is single shot mode which it can fire larger rock shells one at a time. The third is charge mode. Not shown in the OVA her cannon can extend out another foot, releasing three locking bars that fully reveals its charging rotor. It can charge up to fire a large beam blast. It's other battle mode can turn the cannon into a large bladed weapon which Black Rock Shooter can use in close quarters combat. She uses this mode to destroy Dead Mater's Dead Skulls. In cannon mode it can also be used as a large club. Her katana that she uses against Golden Rock Saw is black and white and is crooked at its hilt.

Dead Master (Deddo Masutā, Error: {{nihongo}}: transliteration text not Latin script (pos 1) (help))

Voiced by: Miyuki Sawashiro

Dead Master is Black Rock Shooter's antagonist and Yomi's darkened persona. She merged with Yomi after she became jealous of Yuu and was taken to the "Other World." She is also the only "Other World" character to be shown in the Human World, albeit very briefly. Similar to a Gothic Lolita costume, Dead Master's clothing consists of a black dress and a black bolero; her dress extends down to her thighs and is accented with a white ribbon attached to her waist. She also wears a pair of leggings and a pair of black pumps. She wears a pair of black gauntlets on each hand. Her most striking physical feature is her two black horns made of black vertebra. She uses three weapons in her battle with Black Rock Shooter. Her primary weapon is her Dead Scythe. It has multiple short scythes under the main scythe blade and a vertebra-like feature at the end of the handle. The Dead Scythe serves as her close quarters combat weapon but is destroyed in battle when Black Rock Shooter shoots its main blade off with her cannon. Her second weapons are her chains which serve as her mid-rage weapons. She manages to capture Black Rock Shooter in them but they are also broken when Black Rock Shooter frees herself and devolves her last chain. Her third weapons are her large two "Dead Skulls" which serve as her partners in both her long-range and close-range combat. They have glowing green orbits and mouths. They are also destroyed by Black Rock Shooter with her Bladed mode cannon. Dead Master is defeated when Black Rock Shooter hugs her and forces her out of Yomi, after which she subsequently dissolves.
