Main characters
Ichimatsu Matsuno1296 fan favoritesExternal profileThe fourth brother. Known as the "joker" of the Matsus, Ichimatsu tend to act antisocial and solemn but rather friendly to Jyushimatsu. He is deeply fond of cats, and loathes Karamatsu just as much (canonically due to jealousy toward Karamatsu's self-confidence and esteem).
Karamatsu Matsuno1195 fan favoritesExternal profileThe second brother. Likes to play tough and cool, but so far he really isn't doing a good job. Is ignored by his brothers most of the time, so even the slightest compliments make him happy.
Juushimatsu Matsuno864 fan favoritesExternal profileThe fifth brother. He is outgoing and talkative, and can always be seen with a smile on his face. As an adult, his head is always in the clouds, and he can be a little naïve. He's generally considered the silliest one of the brothers.
Osomatsu Matsuno391 fan favoritesExternal profileThe oldest and leader of the sextuplets, as well as the best fighter in the group. In the 1993 one-shot story Osomatsu-kun Grows Up, he has become a typical salaryman and is unmarried. His name comes from osomatsu (お粗末), which means lame or ill-prepared in Japanese.
Choromatsu Matsuno379 fan favoritesExternal profileThe third brother. Since he is the only one among the sextuplets with common sense, he often plays the tsukkomi ("straight" man in comedy) role. However, that doesn't prevent him from joining in on his brothers oddities now and then. He becomes an obsessive fool when it comes to cute girls, especially when it comes to his childhood friend Totoko and favorite idol Nyaa-chan.
Todomatsu Matsuno308 fan favoritesExternal profileThe sixth and youngest brother of the Matsuno household. He has a two-faced personality - being cutely girly and coldly cruel - and sometimes play as the straight man. Todomatsu's catchphrase is "todo no tsumari," meaning "in the end"; a play on words.
Iyami76 fan favoritesExternal profileIyami is a very flashy and mischievous man who claims to be from France. His most notable features are his 3 large buckteeth, his thin moustache, and his Beatles-style haircut. He refers to himself in the first person as Me (ミー mii) and other people as Chimi (チミ) and usually ends his sentences with ~zansu (〜ザンス). His trademark pose of flexing his arms and legs and shouting Sheeeh! (シェー) became a popular trend all over Japan. (Source: Wikipedia)
Chibita25 fan favoritesExternal profileThe rival of the sextuplets. Although he is very short he is the same age as them. His most notable features are his big round eyes and the one strand of hair atop his bald head. His favorite food is oden. He is a very cheeky character who likes to laugh at people with his trademark laugh Kekeh (ケケッ). He loves to bully and humiliate the sextuplets (although they bully him back) and is terribly stubborn. However, he also has a childlike side to him and loves animals and flowers. His parents are never seen or mentioned and he lives with several cats and frogs. There are many times when he appears as Iyami's assistant or subordinate, but he will also often be against Iyami. In his first appearance he was a very obedient child with strict parents, but soon became the bratty character he is now. In the 1988 anime he is portrayed as an edokko. Like Iyami, Chibita eventually stole the spotlight from the sextuplets and has become one of Akatsuka's most widely recognized characters. In "Osomatsu-kun Grows Up" he has become a clerk and is now 150 cm tall and has a full head of hair. (Source: Wikipedia)
