Akachouchin is a girl often seen with 95-kun. Akachouchin is based off of the character Shinku from the Anime/Manga series ''Rozen Maiden''. A Chouchin is a type of paper lantern, while Aka means red, so the character is a silver-haired with a red headdress with red paper lanterns on the sides. Perhaps this is is a sign of the Red Light District, which might coorespond to Akachouchin's frequent inebriation. 95-kun is more often depicted with Akachouchin, who is usually depicted with some sort of container, as it is said that Akachouchin is excellent at making sake (though it is in the rather disgusting way of chewing the ingredients and then spitting them into the pot to ferment). | Akachouchin is a girl often seen with 95-kun.

She can be seen in a 4koma here.[http://ostan-collections.net/imeeji/displayimage.php?album=35&pos=63] | ||
Daiginjou is a woman often seen with 95-tan. Daiginjou is derived from Suigintou and Kun-kun, both from the ''Rozen Maiden'' series. Like Akachouchin, Daiginjou is often associated with alcohol, but instead of making it, she serves it as a bartender. She is a tall, reubenesque blonde woman with brown dog ears under a small maid ruffle, flanked by red paper lanterns. Her hair varies in length depending on the picture, some depicting it in a slightly shorter cut than 2k-tan, some depicting it longer than 95's. She is a frequent companion of 95-tan and Kiri-san, the three seeming to be drinking buddies. Daiginjou has also been shown to hang out with 2k-kun and Eigyouseki after work. A lone comic[http://www.otakubell.com/os-girls/Gallery/picture.php?/465/category/7] has implied that there might be a romantic relationship between 2k-kun and Daiginjou. | Daiginjou is a woman often seen with 95-tan.

Kiri-san is a tall, buxom woman with long silvery-blue hair, small half-rim glasses and yellow eyes. She is based off the popular character Kotonomiya Yuki(琴乃宮雪), from the cult classic hentai visual novel Suigetsu. Though she, like her base character, is a maid, she is frequently pictured in various outfits, though her maid's uniform is brown and white. Her younger sister, Yukiko-san, is based off of the same character, though Yukiko's hair is about the length of 2k-tan's, and her eyes are red. Yukiko-san seems to appear significantly less than her older sister. Kiri-san worries about her. | Kiri-san is a tall, buxom woman with long silvery-blue hair, small half-rim glasses and yellow eyes.

Eigyouseki[http://desuchan.net/nij/src/1265397867203.jpg] is a short man with an odd, almost frog or cat-shaped green hat (similar to Finn's from Adventure Time) that he wears all the time. He works in the same office as Yamada, WE-tan, and 2k-kun, and is a member of the circle of friends in that respect. He can be seen commuting to work with 2k-kun, occasionally working overtime, and going out for drinks with his friends (which sometimes includes Daiginjou and the others). Overall, his personality is very kind, though nervous when talking to others. One could say he relies on 2k-kun to be his wing man when talking to new folks. | Eigyouseki[http://desuchan.net/nij/src/1265397867203.jpg][http://danbooru.donmai.us/wiki/show?nordirect=1&title=eigyouseki] is a short man with an odd, almost frog or cat-shaped green hat (similar to Finn's from Adventure Time) that he wears all the time.

He has a plain, soft face with small features (including a set of beady-yet-cute eyes) and brown hair, which can often be seen sticking out from underneath the hat. It's uncommon to see him out of office wear.

Additionally, he and Jissouseki[http://desuchan.net/nij/src/1263274673614.png] look quite similar, as both were based on a super-deformed version of the ''Rozen Maiden'' character Suiseiseki (Jissouseki being more similar to the base in appearance; Eigyouseki is said to be the "Office Mutation"). | ||
====Shitsuji-kun==== | ====Shitsuji-kun==== | ||
Shitsuji- | [[File:Shitsuji and inu-t.png|200px|thumb|right|Shitsuji-kun and Inu-T.]] | ||
Shitsuji-kun is a Satyr, technically. However, contrary to what's expected of the species, Shitsuji-kun is calm, polite, and actually quite shy. Perhaps this is due to his name being a play on the words "Sheep" ("Hitsuji") and "Butler" ("Shitsuji"). He dresses formally, and usually behaves in a shy manner. His large, furry sheep legs almost act as a sort of bloomers (and they sometimes are, depending on the rendition), but after that he only wears a shirt, vest, and bowtie. His hair is short yet shaggy, with a slight wave to it, and is somewhere between blonde and silver in colour. He has a crush on Inu-t, who seems to somewhat return his feelings, though is rather oblivious. He has also been shown to be friends with Homeo, and the two consider each other confidantes.[http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/20864/comic-hard_translated-homeko-homeo-imuhata_shimuro] [ | |||

Yabai, while not technically one of the Nijiura Maids, is a maid that was created on Nijiura. She's a Harpy based off the Snowy Owl, after an anon posted a couple panels of ''Jagan wa Gachirin ni Tobu'' to the Guro board and it became popular. | Yabai, while not technically one of the Nijiura Maids, is a maid that was created on Nijiura.

====Inui==== | ====Shippai==== | ||
In the same catagory as Yabai as a sort of "bonus maid", Shippai is not one of the official "Nijiura Maids", but is a maid from Nijiura. She can be easily recgonized by her straight brown hair (no bangs, bob cut), creepy snickering expression, flat nose, and buck teeth. Shippai is regarded as obnoxious due to her malicious spreading of hurtful gossip, without much regard to others' feelings. This has garnered her a low reputation in the Futaba community, with her presence being somewhat looked down upon by others. It is unclear if she even lives up to her duties as a maid, instead being more interested in the latest scoop. Shippai can be seen in a 4koma here.[http://ostan-collections.net/imeeji/displayimage.php?album=35&pos=51] | |||
====Kiai(きあい)==== | |||
[[File:Kiai.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Kiai-san.]] | |||
Another random maid. Taking her name from "Kiai"(きあい, "Fighting Spirit"), Kiai[http://danbooru.donmai.us/wiki/show?title=kiai] is a very active tomboyish kind of girl, taking her design from Capcom characters Kasugano Sakura (''Street Fighter'') and Wakaba Hinata (''Rival Schools: United by Fate''). She seems to be a fighter, judging by her dress (sports bra, biking shorts, wrist weights, and maid's ruffle atop short brown hair with trailing headband in back). With this in mind, she seems to get along with XP-kun, suggesting they might train together (her wrist weights also sport the same colour scheme as XP-kun's cuffs). She has been pictured with Gatai, the only man among the Maids.[http://ostan-collections.net/wiki/File:Kiai,_gatai,_and_xp-kun.jpg] | |||
====Inu/Inui==== | |||
Inu[http://ostan-collections.net/wiki/File:Astaroth_and_inu.jpg] and Inui[http://ostan-collections.net/wiki/File:2k_inui_ce_chikoi_3m_chinese.jpg] are an oddity among the Futaba Characters. Though Inui has been described as a maid, she is rarely seen wearing any maid's attire or any clothes at all outside of Inu-T's collar. Both are derivitaves of Inu-T (hence the collar), and are long, blue forms with black, beady eyes as their only facial features (Inui is sometimes pictured with Inu-T's ears and bow). They appear as background characters in quite a few OS-tan and Nijiura/Futaba pictures, sometimes more than one of them at a time. Not much else is known about them. They appear in a 4koma here.[http://ostan-collections.net/imeeji/displayimage.php?album=35&pos=64] | |||

====Kurai-san==== | ====Kurai-san==== | ||
Kurai[http://www.shii.org/maids/kurai] gets her name from "Kurai" (暗い or くらい, "Gloomy") or "Kuro" (黒, "Black"). Her outlook on life is grim, and she sometimes dresses in Gothic-Lolita style. She doesn't really smile. She keeps her black hair tied back in braids, wears glasses and a lemonhead hairclip, off-setting her black maid's outfit. | Kurai[http://www.shii.org/maids/kurai] gets her name from "Kurai" (暗い or くらい, "Gloomy") or "Kuro" (黒, "Black").

====Yamada-tan==== | ====Yamada-tan==== | ||
Yamada began life as the candidate to be Windows 98. However, due to her common OL (Office Lady) appearance, she was rejected for being too plain. After the fall from grace, Yamada began her life as a Futaba character, taking up residence in comics with WE-tan, 2k-kun, Astaroth, Eigyouseki, and Daiginjou. Like many older OS-tans, Yamada consistently wishes for a bigger chest, and otherwise lives the life of the average OL (reads manga on the train, occasionally does cute-yet-embarassing things, has dreams of marriage). | [[File:Yamada-tan.jpg|200px|thumb|right|The original picture of Yamada-tan.]] | ||
Yamada's typical look is a blue skirted suit with white longsleeve button-up shirt and blue vest with the windows logo somewhere on it. Some pictures give her a piece of computer equipment (a hard drive, maybe?) wrapped around her hips like a belt. She has brown eyes and a slightly long bob cut for her brown hair. | |||

====WE-tan==== | ====WE-tan==== | ||
[[File:We-tan.png|200px|thumb|left|WE-tan, aka Taeko-san.]] | |||
Though some sources list WE-tan (aka Taeko) as simply an ME-tan fangirl, other sources credit her as being Windows Explorer-tan (this is the accepted form on OSC). As Explorer-tan, she is often overlooked in her abilities, being seen as simple and flighty like her idol, ME-tan. On the contrary, WE-tan is one of the harder workers at the office, often having to scold Yamada to get back to work. She shares an apartment with Yamada, Astaroth, and Spider Man. | Though some sources list WE-tan (aka Taeko) as simply an ME-tan fangirl, other sources credit her as being Windows Explorer-tan (this is the accepted form on OSC).

====Pizza-tan==== | WE's typical look is almost a bizzaro ME-tan; she dresses in pink and black, with an orange icon (a downward-pointing triangle with a question mark in it)on her chest. She keeps her long, pink hair in braids like ME-tan. She has also been shown in office attire similar to Yamada-tan. | ||
====Pizza-tan & Pizza-kun==== | |||
[[File:Pizza-tan.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Pizza-tan in her typical state.]] | |||
Pizza-tan is a Futaba original character without much basis. Considering her style, though, one could claim she has 2k-tan for a basis. However, this is likely due to Pizza's personality as 2k's fangirl, following her around happily. Pizza sports a red bob cut, not unlike 2k's, and 2 strips of meat (they bear a resemblance to bacon in some way) where the cat ears would go on 2k. She also has a sprig of something directly at the top, perhaps imitating 2k's maid ruffle, but it looks to be the leaves/stem to a tomato (implied by her hair). She wears a yellow dress covered in pizza toppings, which varies depending on the depiction (most depictions of her are rather simplistic, so usually stick to one or two toppings placed evenly, usually pepperoni. The more detailed depictions, however, take a more realistic approach with multiple types of toppings overlapping), sometimes being a solid dress with long sleeves, sometimes being a dress with longsleeve coat, sometimes being a leotard with the coat. (Alternate outfits have also placed her in a yellow cheongsam and winter gear, depending on the context and the picture.) Pizza's personality is sort of a contradiction; while she is a typical little girl, running around and getting into trouble, when approached, she often gets shy. Given the resemblance and the amount of time they spend together, people have mistaken Pizza for 2k's daughter.[http://ostan-collections.net/imeeji/displayimage.php?album=35&pos=86] Pizza seems to care deeply about 2k-tan.[http://ostan-collections.net/wiki/File:Pizza-tan_and_2k-tan_4koma.jpg] | |||
Pizza is often seen hanging out with XP-kun as well. Given her love of DON'ing stuff, coupled with his strength and gentle demeanor around kids, the two make a natural pair. There have also been pictures of Pizza-tan as an older teenager or young woman[http://ostan-collections.net/imeeji/displayimage.php?album=search&cat=0&pos=1] with XP-kun, something not seen with 2k-tan. Given the amount of time they spend together and one or two pictures of them together in a romantic/semi-romantic context, it could be implied that Pizza has a crush on XP-kun, though this lacks ample evidence. (What evidence IS there, though, is quite shocking and could imply an undertone of malicious intent towards her relationship with 2k-tan, given that 2k-tan loves XP-kun, too. (Warning; NSFW)[http://ostan-collections.net/imeeji/displayimage.php?album=54&pos=1] (This cold, manipulative side of Pizza-tan might be taken from her brother, who has shown those signs on more than one occasion.) | |||
Pizza's favourite activities include following around 2k-tan (though she can sometimes be rather shy when 2k talks to her, possibly out of being starstruck)[http://ostan-collections.net/imeeji/displayimage.php?album=search&cat=0&pos=5], hanging out with XP-kun, running around, and DON'ing things (sometimes people, usually to startle them in childish fun). Her catchphrases include "DON!" (lit. "BAM!") and "Pya" or "Pyaaa"(with a's dragged out for effect; both a play on her name). She is occasionally seen with her older brother, Pizza-kun, who usually tends to be protective of her. | |||
[[File:Pizza-kun.jpg|200px|thumb|left|Pizza-kun.]] | |||
Pizza-kun, like Pizza-tan, spends plenty of time with 2k-kun, though unlike Pizza-tan, 2k-kun is the one to get bashful at times when they're together. This, along with images of the two, has slightly implied a relationship between the two[http://ostan-collections.net/imeeji/displayimage.php?album=search&cat=0&pos=3], however it remains somewhat unconfirmed. The majority of the pictures of the two show Pizza-kun as an assistant of sorts to 2k-kun, implying that he might also work in the office. However, lone pictures of Pizza-kun run the gambit from professional to downright nymphomaniac. He seems to be effeminate, though cold, usually keeping a very calm, serene demeanor. Unlike his sister, he is not prone to outbursts of physical activity (no DONs or "Pyaaaa"s), this likely being due to his age compared to hers (young adult vs young child). With this in mind, he keeps up a very professional public demeanor, though is fine with letting it all hang out in private. Though he seems to enjoy drinking[http://ostan-collections.net/imeeji/displayimage.php?album=search&cat=0&pos=4], he is not really pictured going out for drinks with the guys after work. | |||
Like Pizza-tan, Pizza-kun sports a short red haircut, similar to 2k-kun's, with the same bacon and tomato sprig that his younger sister has. He wears a suit, not unlike 2k-kun's, though his is yellow and has pizza toppings on the front. Like 2k-kun, he is sometimes seen sporting a matching cape, though this is more common to Pizza-kun than 2k-kun. | |||
Both brother and sister both carry the same expression near constantly (something close to `v´ or `∀´), which has come across as cute, cold, and sinister all rolled into one, depending on the subtle nuances and the context of the picture. In some way, they could be implied to be Chinese, since Chinese characters are sometimes seen with closed-eye expressions in Anime and Manga. However, that is merely speculation, with no basis in the art's context. | |||
