Plot

A romance comedy parodying fairy tales such as Little Red Riding Hood, The Ant and the Grasshopper etc. Ryōko Ōkami (the eponymous Ōkami-san) is a tomboyish high school girl. She is a member of a "trading" club known as the Otogi High School Bank. She and the other members of the club (such as her partner, Akai Ringo, aka Little Red Riding Hood) fix the problems presented by students (or "clients"), of any sort, by any means, in exchange for the students' helping them out later when others may need help.

Characters

Otogi Bank

The main characters are part of a high school club called the Otogi Bank. They are hired to solve issues from various students, who then incur debts that they pay back with favors.[2] Ryoko is a member of the club, and the seven companions are the other members at the start of the series. Ryoshi joins the club in the first episode.

Ryōko Ōkami (大神 涼子 Ōkami Ryōko, also Ryoko)
Voiced by: Shizuka Itō[3] (Japanese); Brina Palencia[4] (English)
The protagonist and title character is a tomboyish high school girl who is fierce, like a wolf, fights thugs using special Neko Neko (in english meaning kitty) Knuckles developed by Majolica. She tends to put up a strong and fierce front to disguise her inside nature, where she is a bit more kind and frightened of certain things. Although generally hostile about Ryōshi's wimpiness, she soon accepts him as someone who can watch her back in fights. Later in the series, she would sometimes blush when she sees Ryoshi. Ryōko's character fits into the tsundere category of anime idioms. She is a close friend of Ringo Akai and is based on the wolf from the fairytale Little Red Riding Hood and others, though on several occasions she is shown to be very different from her base character; she mostly tries to act and be like the wolf, "wearing a wolf's clothing". She'd originally been an honest and innocent girl, but in Junior High her former boyfriend Shirō attempted to rape her. In episode seven, Shirō states he helped himself to her and that the relationship was intimate; however, he later reveals to Morino that he lied about it. Unable to convince her friends of the assault, Ryōko transferred schools and struggled to be "strong" enough that she would need no one and not risk being betrayed again. She develops feelings for Morino later on in the anime. Her last name, Ōkami, means "wolf".
Ryōshi Morino (森野 亮士 Morino Ryōshi, also Ryoshi)
Voiced by: Miyu Irino[3] (Japanese); Joel McDonald[4] (English)
A shy boy who cowers when confronted by other people and so keeps his distance. It is explained in the anime that he suffers from Ophthalmophobia, a fear of people staring at him.[5] He has a crush on Ryōko and following a failed confession to her, he is somehow enrolled into Otogi Bank, where the others hope to use his low noticeability to avoid being detected. However, Ryōshi is much braver when hidden in darkness, and fights from afar using a wrist-mounted slingshot armed with pachinko balls with extreme precision, as shown when he knocks a baseball flying in midair about to hit Otsū. He is also known to perform well in fist fights if Ryōko is in danger. He is based on the hunter in the fairytale Little Red Riding Hood who captures the wolf or Ōkami-san.
Ringo Akai (赤井 林檎 Akai Ringo)
Voiced by: Kanae Itō[3] (Japanese); Monica Rial[4] (English)
A petite red-haired girl who has been longtime friends with Ryōko. She is the one who recruits Ryōshi into Otogi Bank. She is a close friend of Ryōko Ōkami, and is always trying to involve herself with her best friend's love life. Like Ryōko, she tends to smile to hide her true feelings, and admires Ryōko for trying to become stronger. She is based on the Little Red Riding Hood from the folktale of the same name, though some aspects of her scheming, manipulative personality closer resemble the poisoned apple ("Ringo" means apple) of Snow White, a fact which is occasionally referenced by the narrator and other characters. She is also the half sister of "Snow White" Shirayuki Himeno and feels responsible for her past. However, thanks to Ryōko, she moves on from the past. Aiden Foote of THEM Anime Reviews describes her as the "most conniving of all Lolitas and frequently referred to as evil by the dry voiced and witted narrator."
Liszt Kiriki (桐木 リスト Kiriki Risuto, also List)
Voiced by: Hirofumi Nojima[3] (Japanese); Micah Solusod[4] (English)
Liszt is the president of Otogi Bank; he is described as clever and laid-back, but resourceful.[2] He sometimes disguises himself and cross-dresses in order to gather information. He is based on the cricket in "the cricket and the ant".[2]
Alice Kiriki (桐木 アリス Kiriki Arisu)
Voiced by: Yui Horie[3] (Japanese); Terri Doty[4] (English)
Liszt's cousin and secretary in the club. Does most club paperwork, and is based on the ant in "the cricket and the ant"
Otsū Tsurugaya (鶴ヶ谷 おつう Tsurugaya Otsū)
Voiced by: Ayako Kawasumi[3] (Japanese); Colleen Clinkenbeard[6] (English)
The club's maid who has an obsession for returning favors.[2] When she was young, she was saved from a car accident by a boy who died before she could thank him, resulting in her having a fear of not being able to return a favor. She is based on the crane from the Japanese tale Tsuru no Ongaeshi.
Tarō Urashima (浦島 太郎 Urashima Tarō)
Voiced by: Shintaro Asanuma[3] (Japanese); Todd Haberkorn[4] (English)
A first-year transfer student who is a year older than the rest of the gang. He acts as a playboy[2] and sometimes flirts with girls although he has a girlfriend, Otohime. He is based on the title character from the Japanese tale Urashima Tarō. It is heavily implied that he is in an intimate relationship with Otohime, and he occasionally enters a "gentleman mode".
Otohime Ryūgū (竜宮 乙姫 Ryūgū Otohime)
Voiced by: Aki Toyosaki[3] (Japanese); Caitlin Glass[7] (English)
A girl with an obsessive crush on Tarō,[2] who cares for her greatly but on some occasions, is scared of her. It was thanks to Tarō's motivation that she changed from a chubby bullied elementary student to a thin beauty.[7] Although Tarō often runs from her advances, he does have special feelings for her, and can even be considered her boyfriend. She is based on Princess Otohime from the Japanese tale Urashima Tarō. The reason she is called turtle is because Otohime from the legend was a turtle on land when she met Tarō. Her relationship with Mimi Usami is related to the fable, The Tortoise and the Hare.[7]
Majolica le Fay (マジョーリカ・ル・フェイ Majōrika Ru Fei, also Majolika)

During middle school, he attempted to rape Ryōko but after that he spread bad rumors about Ryōko. He is based partially on The Boy Who Cried Wolf.

Knowledgeable about Ryōshi and the Otogi Bank, he takes it upon himself to "train" Ryōshi, even taking part in joining Ryōshi and company to Onigashima High School to save Ōkami because when he was younger, he was saved by Ōkami from a bunch of delinquents.

She appears in the last episode of the anime, attempting to win over Ryoshi. She and her father had been in serious debt, so she had been working towards paying off their debt. Her reason was so she could marry into his family, as she believed he was rather wealthy after seeing him outside his aunt's boarding complex with his "expensive" dogs. Later, when Ryoshi protects her from a group of debt collectors, she begins to really develop a crush on him. She becomes the newest resident of the boarding complex where Ryoshi lives and was able to let go of him after hearing just how much Ryoko meant to him.

Believing she can marry out of poverty, Machiko confronts Ryōshi in class the following day and asks him to marry her. Later, to further her plans, she requests a date with him through the Otogi Bank. Ringo manipulates Ryōko's feelings for Ryōshi and gets her to follow him on his date, hoping that she will be more honest about herself. The date progresses well when Machiko abruptly ends it. A confused Ryōshi leaves but returns in time to save Machiko from loan sharks. A grateful Machiko reveals her motives for the date and proposal, which is that she has been paying off the family debt with the money from her part-time job, but her father ran away with the latest payment.
