There are 100 different types in the game. There are little available characters in the start but additional choices are unlocked during the course of gameplay.

During "Episode Mode", the player(s) watch as others speak with Tsuna. After a scene is finished, the player will be instructed to chose a path to bring Tsuna to another character.
