This is a list of fictional characters appearing in the Japanese manga series Terra Formars.

BUGS 2

Shokichi Komachi (小町 小吉, Komachi Shōkichi)

Voiced by: Hidenobu Kiuchi

Komachi is one of the three Japanese members of the BUGS 2 expedition sent to Mars and one of the only two who survived. Despite disliking conflict, has a strong sense of justice. When he was 15 years old, he saw his childhood friend Nanao's stepfather abusing her and killed the man with his bare hands to protect her. After being released from juvenile prison, he underwent the bugs procedure to follow after her.

He was 22 years old when he was sent to the second expedition and after seeing almost all his companions killed by the Terraformars including Nanao, he swore to one day return and enact his revenge. He indeed returns 20 years later as the Japanese leader of Annex I's squad 1. Komachi's powers are based on the Asian giant hornet, giving him enhanced strength and the ability to inflict lethal doses of poison with his stings. He is mortally wounded by Joseph during their fight, but he manages to kill him thanks to an overdose of the transformation drug keeping his body together.

Ichiro Hiruma (蛭間 一郎, Hiruma Ichirō)

Voiced by: Tomokazu Sugita

The other survivor of the BUGS 2 expedition when he was 18, Hiruma swore to never return to Mars after what happened. Being the eldest of eleven siblings, he tried to betray the rest of the BUGS 2 crew along with one of his comrades, Victoria Wood, in order to gain more money by bringing a roach egg, but the egg hatched faster than expected and killed Victoria. He was saved by Shokichi and they fiercely fought the rest of the roaches. He eventually becomes the Prime Minister of Japan and works to enforce his country's position among the countries leading the Annex I mission. Hiruma's powers are based on the sleeping chironomid that just like its larva, bestows him with a seemingly invulnerable carapace along enhanced strength.

In combat he combines his strings with martial arts, proving himself deadly even for the special terraformars. His personal battle weapon is a katana that can easily cut the Terraformars, much like George Smiles' sword, used in tandem with his adoptive family's sword arts.

Voiced by: Akira Ishida

Laid back and a flirt, he's considered the strongest person in the Annex I crew, being powerful enough to take on enough Terraformars to make a mountain-sized pile out of their bodies. He's the culmination of 600 years of selective breeding in humans, with a superior intellect and superhuman strength. His operation base's origin is never revealed, but it gives him the ability to regrow limbs and generate electricity. His weapon is the same sword used by George Smiles, a member of the BUGS 1 crew, 43 years before. He appears just in time to save Yaeko and Alex from a horde of terraformars, and defeats one of Bao's clones when the latter tries to use Michelle as a decoy. He proposes marriage to Michelle (much to her disbelief) before moving to face Liu Yiwu and the remaining clones. After killing one clone and incapacitating another, he and Liu move to fight one on one. He and Liu are nearly killed by the Chinese, but somehow survive and arrive to help Komachi. He eventually betrays the ANNEX 1 crew, revealing his purpose for being on the mission was to find a suitable mate, which Michelle had proven herself to be, but her and Akari's attraction to one another drove him over the edge, forcing him to remember the first time he had been rejected by a girl he loved, an act his ego couldn't allow. He faces Shōkichi in a one-on-one fight and ultimately loses when Shōkichi exploits Joseph's inability to comprehend love or emotional connections and is killed when Shōkichi uses the severed limb of the Praying Mantis roach to split him in half, decapitate him, and slice his head in two.

It is later revealed that he remained alive since he had taken Eva's planarian powers previously and his slowly regenerating body is returned to earth by members of his family, convinced that he has surpassed humanity. It is then revealed that they plan to use him as a figurehead once they take over the world. However, the defeat and the memory of Michelle's rejection have driven him insane.

Terraformars

The main antagonists, who hold an innate hatred for all humans, are 2m tall martian cockroaches with humanoid bodies similar to Homo erectus, evolved by a mysterious civilization, the Rahab. Their internal anatomy is nearly identical to that of regular cockroaches, and can remain mobile even when decapitated as long as the Suboesophageal ganglion remains intact and there is an open passage to the lungs. They don't feel pain and retain the abilities of normal cockroaches, such as incredible speed, strength and resistance on a human scale, allowing them to easily defeat a normal human.

There are different types of Terraformars, having adapted quickly during the BUGS 2 mission; furthermore, the Annex I mission discovered some had incorporated dead BUGS 2 crewmember capabilities, somehow copying the Bugs Procedure. Their insect ancestry is revealed by small antenna, a pair of cerci above their posterior, and the elytra covering the wings. They are animalistic, adaptable, bent on survival, and individually intelligent to different degrees. While Terraformars don't initially appear to have social structure, the Evolved Terraformars display leadership, rallying their brothers into a capable fighting force and leading their race from their headquarters based in the Martian pyramid, built by the Rahab. A love of fighting humans has caused the Evolved Terraformars to develop hot-blooded personalities who can't resist a one-on-one fight. A Terraformar leader eventually appears in the form of a roach with the appearance of a Buddhist priest who has somehow learned Kalaripayattu, but is ultimately killed by Alex in a last-ditch attack after he is mortally wounded.

Their intelligence is so high, they were able to rebuild the Annex 1's old ship and fly it back to Earth, infiltrating homes in several countries; and, began learning human social knowledge through computers, cellphones and books taken from the humans killed on Earth; and, have stolen cars and clothing. They have a written motto: "WE ARE THE COSMOS"
