Japanese names are documented first in Western order, followed by English names, if applicable.

Main characters

*Netto Hikari (光熱斗 "Hikari Netto") / Lan Hikari - Lan, a fifth-grade student (sixth-grade at the outset of "Battle Network 4" and "Axess"), is not particularly special, but the bond of friendship between him and his NetNavi, MegaMan, allows them to achieve what others may deem impossible. In the anime and manga, Lan is the only child of Yuichiro Hikari and Haruka Hikari, while in the games, he had a twin brother, Hub (Saito; 彩斗), who died as a child from a heart condition and was reincarnated in the form of MegaMan.

*Dr. Yuichiro Hikari (光祐一朗 "Hikari Yūichirō") - Yuichiro is Lan's father, and the creator of MegaMan. He followed in his father's footsteps, working as a scientist and a renowned authority on anything having to do with the net. As such, he is often away, working on his latest project at SciLab. In "Axess", his focus moves onto merging operator and NetNavi in a process known as Cross Fusion, which later inspired the "Double Soul" ("Soul Unison") concept in the games.

*Meiru Sakurai (桜井メイル "Sakurai Meiru") / Mayl Sakurai - Mayl is a classmate and friend of Lan, and the operator of Roll. The two are next-door neighbors, and are often perceived to be a couple, though in all incarnations, Lan is clueless towards Mayl's affections. During the epilogue following the sixth game in the series, it is revealed that Lan and Mayl are married and have a child together named "Patch" ("Raito"). The two have always been very close growing up. Mayl, being the more mature and intelligent of the two, is often having to beat some sense into Lan when he gets himself into trouble. The two do occasionally have oppositions, but the bickering only brings them closer. Mayl sometimes shows that she may have romantic feelings towards her lifetime friend. Roll and Megaman's relation strongly parallels that of Lan and Mayl's, though Roll is much more blatant with her affection towards Megaman. She was renamed Maylu Sakurai in the English anime and manga. It is revealed in the 5th game, when the character observes Mayl's house in a Visionburst 11 years in the past, that Mayl's father is Netopian (the Battle Network equivalent of an American), making Mayl at least half Netopian.

*Rush - In the games, Rush is a Navi Customizer part that aids a user in multiplayer battles, as well as a virus and Battle Chip in the first "Battle Network" game. In the anime, Rush is an onsen-loving canine virus created by Yuichiro and installed into Maylu's PET when Roll and friends attempt to recover MegaMan. Rush has the ability to travel between the real world and the cyberworld with advanced holographic technology. He can also transform into the Rush Synchro Chip while in the real world, allowing Maylu to Cross Fuse with Roll.

*Dekao Oyama (大山デカオ "Ōyama Dekao") / Dex Oyama - Dex is a classmate and friend of Lan, and the operator of GutsMan. He is often portrayed as a bully with a soft spot. Dex has a younger brother named Chisao, who is seen infrequently in "Battle Network", and a recurring character in the anime. In later anime episodes, Dex gives up NetBattling in order to focus on his new career as a curry chef. Renamed Dex Ogreon in the English anime and manga.

*Chisao Oyama (大山チサオ "Ōyama Chisao") - Chisao is Dex's younger brother, and originally lived in Netopia (Ameroupe). He is too young to operate his own NetNavi, although he is a NetBattling prodigy (pulling off a Program Advance with GutsMan in the anime when Dex himself could not). He is firm in his belief that his brother is the world's best NetBattler and GutsMan the world's best NetNavi. Renamed Chisao Ogreon in the English anime and manga.

*Yaito Ayanokoji (綾小路やいと "Ayanokouji Yaito") / Yai Ayanokoji - Yai is a rich classmate and friend of Lan's, and the operator of Glyde. She is considerably younger than the other main characters, as she skipped a few grades due to her intelligence, and (in the anime) operates out of her father's company, AyanoTech (Gabcom), the original name of which is a play on the name of Capcom, the original creators of most of the "MegaMan" / "Rockman" series. In the anime, she is known for her large forehead, as well as her love of strawberry milk, and secretly adores Chaud. Renamed Yai Ayano in the English anime and manga.

*Tohru Hikawa (氷川透 "Hikawa Tōru") / Tory Froid - Tory, a character appearing only in the anime, is a friend of Lan's, cofounder of the onsen club with Ms. Mari, a skilled skater and violinist, and the operator of IceMan. His father, Dr. Froid (Seiji Hikawa; 氷川清次 "Hikawa Seiji"), runs the city's water works facility, and because of this, is blackmailed by WWW to do their bidding before Lan comes to the rescue. In the games, Tory is never mentioned by name, IceMan is his father's Navi, and he is kidnapped so that his father cooperates, whereas in the anime, the reverse is true.

*Enzan Ijuin (伊集院炎山 "Ijūin Enzan") / Eugene Chaud - Chaud is member of the Official NetBattler Association, an online police force against hacking. He is meticulous in his duties; his arrogance makes Lan thinks of him as a rival. Chaud is the operator of ProtoMan (Blues), a Navi that (according to the anime) he created himself and spends ten hours a day training. Like Yai, Chaud is the heir to a corporation, IPC, but unlike Yai, Chaud's father (Shuuseki Ijuin) often treats him coldly. Because of his constant training with ProtoMan, he is a NetBattler with over 500 wins, and is introduced as such in the anime. In the anime, he becomes a NetSaver (Net Savior), and is also the second to gain the ability to Cross Fuse. He was renamed Chaud Blaze in the English anime and manga.

*Laika (ライカ "Raika") / Raika - Raika is a NetSaver from Sharo, and the operator of SearchMan. He was trained to be an elite soldier, and sees NetBattling as war. In "Battle Network 4", he is one of Lan's tournament opponents in the "Red Sun" version. In "Battle Network 5", he is a member of Team ProtoMan. In "Axess", he often relies on cunning and instinct to solve his battles against Nebula and the Darkloids, and looks down on Cross Fusion. Initially, this puts him at odds with Lan, who he believes is inferior because he has the tendency to do things without thinking, but finds that they are surprisingly effective together. In "Stream", he becomes one of the Cross Fusion members marked by Duo, and develops fondness for Princess Pride.

*Mariko Ozono (大園まり子先生 "Ōzono Mariko-sensei") / Ms. Mari - Ms. Mari is the teacher of class 5-A at the ACDC/DenTech school (Densan), of which Lan, Mayl, Dex and Yai are students.

*Masa (マサ) - The owner of a fish stand, and the operator of SharkMan. In the anime, he has a secret identity as Commander Beef (ビーフ司令 "Bīfu Shirei"), one of the Net Agents, and only uses SharkMan while costumed. By day, he often lectures the kids on the various merits of fish, and claims that he does not have a NetNavi. Masa has a crush on Ms. Mari, but Ms. Mari has fallen for Commander Beef. In Beyondard, Masa is the leader of the human resistance, operating under the name Masked Captain (覆面隊長 "Fukumen Taichō"). Renamed Maysa in the English anime and manga.

His NetNavi, NumberMan, operates a similar chip shop from the cyberworld in the anime. Originally, Higsby locks down Lan's school as part of a WWW operation in the games, or as a way to steal rare chips from Yai in the anime, but Lan manages to show Higsby the error of his ways. In the anime, Higsby has a crush on Ms. Mari, and sees Maysa and Commander Beef as rivals for her affection. This fact is also briefly mentioned in "Battle Network 5", where he is a member of Team Colonel.

*Saloma (サロマ "Saroma") / Sal - Sal is the owner of a boxed lunch stand. She is also a gardener, and the operator of WoodMan, who takes on the identity Black Rose (黒バラ仮面 "Kurobara Kamen") as a Net Agent in the anime.

In the games, he is the creator of several powerful Navis, including GateMan, KendoMan, GridMan (Footman), and Punk, although he does not have one in the anime. In every game he has appeared in, each of his Navis were created by fans of the series in a Capcom-sponsored contest (with the exception of Punk). A running gag in the anime involves Famous repeatedly trying to convince Lan to not use "Mr." when addressing him (the Japanese version often has the line "San wa iranai" (literally, "don't put in the san" or "no need for formalities," while the English version will have "Famous, just Famous" to that effect). With each passing series, the number on Famous' shirt increases by one. It started at 15 and ended at 19, meant to represent the "Mega Man" / "Rockman" franchise's age. In real life, Masakazu Eguchi is the name of the scenario writer for the games, and he often cosplays as Meijin at official Japanese events.

*Iris (アイリス "Airisu") - A mysterious girl that appears before Lan. In the games, she becomes one of his new classmates when he moves. In the anime, she acts as a guardian for Trill, able to control MegaMan's "Beast Out" factor while in Beyondard. In both incarnations, she is, in reality, a Navi that has the ability to manifest in the human world as a modified CopyBot (Copyroid), and is also Colonel's younger sister.

In "Battle Network 4", he tries to defeat Lan and MegaMan in the Eagle Tournament by using a rewind program, which caused MegaMan's controls to be reversed. In the anime, he is picked up by Sunayama to take part in Neo WWW's crimes. His favorite color is pink, and he claims to be "beyond gender." His schemes are usually bizarre, involving strange things such as slapping bunny ears onto video game characters and drenching an entire island in curry.

Nebula

*Dr. Regal (Dr.リーガル "Dokutā Rīgaru") - Regal is the human mastermind behind Nebula, and the operator of LaserMan. In the games, he is the son of Dr. Wily, who Wily had intended to raise as a good person. In the anime, he is aided by the Darkloids (whom he later betrayed). In both cases, Regal uses Nebula to take over the world - in the games, he does so first by attempting to control Duo's asteroid, and then setting up the Kokoro Server (SoulNet in the English game) to feed Nebula Grey the dark thoughts of humans. He attempts to commit suicide, but lives, only to have his memories erased by Wily. In the anime, he ravages the world with Cross Fusion in "Axess", unleashes Nebula Grey from the Undernet in the movie, and then finally sets his sights on Duo's comet in "Stream".

In the anime, she is the second-in-command of Nebula, and the operator of NeedleMan. She was separated from her twin sister fifteen years before the start of the series, and raised by Dr. Wily. At the end of "Axess", she was faced with the choice of killing her own sister or betraying Nebula. In the end, she cuts ties with Nebula, and in "Stream", becomes one of the Cross Fusion members marked by Duo.

*Nebula Grey (ネビュラグレイ "Nebyura Gurei") - A dark program created by Dr. Regal. In the games, Regal installs it into the SoulNet to amplify the negative energies of humans in order to taint the world with evil. In the movie, Regal discovers the dormant Wily Program while in the UnderNet and fuses with it to become Nebula Grey. In an attempt to reach his final evolution, Regal initiates the Spectrum phenomenon, which gradually inverts the real world and cyberworld.

Duo

*Duo (デューオ "Dyūo") - A mysterious being from outer space. In the games, Duo was the operation system for a rocket poised to destroy the planet. In the anime, he is a god-like entity, created by an alien race, that sought to cleanse the universe of all evil.
