Miu Matsuoka (played by Fumiko Orikasa) is a protagonist in Strawberry Marshmallow.
A twelve-year-old problem child and Chika's childhood friend. Known for random comments, pranks on Matsuri and Ana, and a lack of common sense.

Ana Coppola (played by Mamiko Noto) appears in Strawberry Marshmallow.
An eleven-year-old English girl who moved to Japan five years prior but seemingly forgot English. Initially pretending to only speak English, she is discovered by Matsuri and develops a polite, traditionally feminine Japanese persona. She dislikes her last name due to Miu's teasing and owns a dog named Frusciante. Nobue Itoh (played by Hitomi Nabatame) appears in Strawberry Marshmallow.
Eldest main character and Chika's older sister with final authority. A twenty-year-old junior-college student and kogal who constantly seeks part-time jobs and borrows money to fund her nicotine addiction. She appreciates the moe aesthetic, preferring Matsuri and Ana. Her personality and age differ between the manga and anime. Chika Itoh (played by Saeko Chiba) appears in Strawberry Marshmallow.
A cheerful twelve-year-old girl who shares a class and neighborhood with Miu. Considered more sensible than her peers, her older sister Nobue notes she specializes in being 'totally generic.'
