Overview

High School Girls chronicles the raunchy high school lives of main character Eriko Takahashi and friends Yuma Suzuki, Ayano Sato, Akari Kouda, Kyoko Himeji, and Ikue Ogawa ("The Moron's Group") as they attend all girls "mediocre princess school", Yamasaki Girls Academy Fuji High School (referred to as "Saki Girls" for short). The manga emphasizes that for the most part the stories come from Oshima's own real life experiences.

Characters

Main characters

Eriko Takahashi (高橋絵里子, Takahashi Eriko^?)

Voiced by: Hitomi Nabatame

The happy-go-lucky main character of the story. Eriko gets good grades but is nevertheless quite clumsy and not at all athletically coordinated (unless it is to escape the many perverts who often cross her path).
Yuma Suzuki (鈴木由真, Suzuki Yuma^?)

Voiced by: Masumi Asano

Eriko's friend since middle-school. The two got off to a bad start, but found they had interests in common. Yuma has dyed blonde hair. Yuma has made a career of being the school's best cheater, although she still gets bad grades. She has a younger sister, Momoka.
Ayano Sato (佐藤綾乃, Satō Ayano^?)

Voiced by: Mamiko Noto

Yuma's life-long friend. They are very close. Ayano is the ingenue of the group. She wears glasses and her hair in plaits, implying an innocent personality, though she has a vivid imagination which often leads to perverted fantasies. By far the most dim-witted of the group. Out of all the main characters, she is the only one with a steady boyfriend (Takanori Shimotakatani).
Akari Kouda (香田あかり, Kōda Akari^?)

Voiced by: Satsuki Yukino

A very rich girl (as seen in her designer accessories from Gucci, Cartier and Prada) Kouda is at first a rival to Eriko's group, but she quickly becomes friends with them after they brag about going to school with boys. An "insider" (a girl who transfers from the junior high branch of the private school rather than passing an entrance exam, like Eriko and friends did, to get in) who uses her knowledge of the school ways to show the others the ropes. Kouda aspires to become a famous actress, using all of her energy to be as outrageous as possible, so as to leave a lasting impression.
Kyoko Himeji (姫路京子, Himeji Kyōko^?)

Voiced by: Kyoko Hikami

A friend of Kouda's who is the first person that the girls know in their age group who loses her virginity. She is assumed part of Eriko's "Moron Group" much to her chagrin. Himeji is often flippant in her sex life, letting guys get the better of her. She used to be overweight, but her crush on Odagiri gave her the incentive to lose weight.
Ikue Ogawa (小川育恵, Ogawa Ikue^?)

Voiced by: Sawa Ishige

A close friend of Himeji's, which makes her a member of the group by default. She is the cute, petite girl of the group who acts as young as she looks. Ogawa usually comes up with the stupidest, almost Mr. Bean-ish solutions (giving Eriko a "mini sleeping pill" to help her relax because she had been up all night watching Doraemon videos) and games (spilling floor wax and using the cloth to slide on).

Other characters

Professor Odagiri (アイドル小田桐, Professor Odagiri^?)

Voiced by: Mitsuaki Madono

The deluded science teacher who believes that he is attractive simply because he is the youngest male teacher at Saki girls. Often the butt of many pranks by Eriko and her group. Himeji used to have a crush on him before she discovered how vain he is.
Professor Root Hara (ルート原, Professor Root Hara^?): The desperate male math teacher of Saki girls. Constantly seen wearing an out-dated 1970s style leisure suit (which is later burned at a school bonfire), decidedly elected as "The teacher who most likely needs Viagra".
Professor Kamei (ミス亀井, Professor Kamei^?): Female Health Ed. teacher at Saki Girls. A bitter older woman who always seems to have a scowl on her face. She dyes her hair black to cover her grays (even though hair dyeing is against the Saki Girls' rules).
Professor Macho Matsuo (マッチョ松尾, Professor Macho Matsuo^?): The hairy, muscular, infallible P.E. teacher at Saki girls who has taken a liking to Eriko.
Professor Hitler Iwato (ヒトラー岩戸, Professor Hitler Iwato ^?): Curiously named Head & classics teacher.
Takanori Shimotakatani (下高谷孝則, Shimotakatani Takanori^?)

Voiced by: Takahiro Mizushima

Ayano's boyfriend who she met at the "Meet the Boys" festival. Eriko and pals, as well as Ayano's mother and sister, are usually trying to get Ayano to lose her virginity to him, mostly without the couples' consent. He has a glasses fetish.
Momoka Suzuki (鈴木桃香, Suzuki Momoka ^?)

Voiced by: Ai Shimizu

Yuma's delinquent, near-evil younger sister, who harbors a hatred for Yuma and her friends. She is often mistaken as a celebrity, and approached by entertainment agents because of her face.
Fumino Sato (佐藤史乃, Satō Fumino^?)

Voiced by: Eri Saito

Ayano's attractive, unlucky in love older sister.
Taeko "Choko" Sato (佐藤蝶子, Satō Taeko^?): Ayano's mother, owner of Bar Choko. Also unlucky in love.
Takeshi Kouda (香田たけし, Kōda Takeshi^?): Kouda's elder brother, trying to make it big as a rock star. Unemployed and a womanizer.

Minor characters

Daichi Takahashi (高橋大地, Takahashi Daichi^?)

Voiced by: Hana Takeda

Eriko's annoying little brother.
Mari Saionji (西園寺マリ, Saionji Mari^?)

Voiced by: Mikako Takahashi

A blonde girl with whom Kouda shares a (now mostly forgotten) rivalry, which was put to an end during Sports Day.
Professor Mario (マリオ中川, Professor Mario^?): The biology professor who looks a lot like Nintendo's mascot Mario.
Towa Oshima (大島永遠, Oshima Towa^?): The author herself. She has appeared in a story of Eriko's (and the omake manga at the end of the volume 1 manga), where she got acute inflammation of the intestine after drinking bad raw tea. She appears mainly as a parody of her real self: old sweatpants, stained shirts, and far too many panty peeks.
