Main characters

Ishiyama High

Ishiyama is described as "the hoodlum school": with the exception of Furuichi, all students are delinquents who spend most of the time fighting. It is accidentally destroyed by Oga on chapter 37.

Tōhōshinki

The four leaders of the delinquent forces in Ishiyama High. Tōhōshinki is an acronym of their respective last names, Hidetora Tojo (東条 英虎, Tojo Hidetora), Aoi Kunieda (邦枝 葵, Kunieda Aoi), Hajime Kanzaki (神崎 一, Kanzaki Hajime), and Tatsuya Himekawa (姫川 竜也, Himekawa Tatsuya). In the English subtitled version of the anime by Crunchyroll, the abbreviation TKKH (using the first letters of their surnames) is used. While initially introduced as antagonists early in the series, the four later become Oga's most loyal followers, each gaining the King's Emblem (located on different parts of their body) that allows them to tap into Beelzebub's demon powers during fights to a level that allows them to go toe-to-toe with other demon contract holders.
