Vincent van Gogh. Highly emotional and prone to temper tantrums; consequently, he has few friends. He respects Gauguin deeply, considering him his only true friend, and harbors intense, heavy feelings of wanting to be with him forever. He craves love and strongly seeks connection with others, but often destroys relationships because he cannot gauge proper social distance. He fires slashing waves of swirling paint from his brush. They are difficult to evade. Cypress: Generates trees from the ground or walls to blow back or restrain enemies. The Starry Night: Painted when he becomes mentally unstable. He draws stars and a moon with swirling brushstrokes, spinning them at high speeds before launching them. Sunflowers: Painted when feelings of joy explode. He fires petals or makes sunflowers bloom from the ground in the enemy's blind spot to fire beams.

Claude Monet. A landscape painter who loves the water lily pond. He has a passionate and warm personality but is an extreme perfectionist regarding art. He is a frequent cigar smoker. Impression, Sunrise: Summons a massive sun to perform a wide-range fire-attribute attack on the opponent. Water Lily Pond: Turns the surrounding area into a pond where water lilies float. He can freely manipulate the water to restrain or blow away opponents. The leaves spin to deliver slashing attacks, and a large explosion occurs when the lilies reach full bloom.

Paul Gauguin. Thought to be one of Gogh's few friends, but while Gauguin likes Gogh's "paintings," he finds Gogh's personality exhausting to be around. Confident, self-centered, stubborn, rebellious, and free-spirited. Excels at close-quarters combat. He boldly swings a massive paintbrush nearly two meters long. Skill: Bold Cloisonnism. Paints colors on the ground and triggers elemental magic from them at any time. The attribute changes depending on the color of the paint: red for pillars of fire, yellow for lightning, blue for water, etc. Skill: Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going? Drags the enemy into a surreal, vibrantly colored realm. The enemy becomes obsessed with philosophical thoughts, falling into a state of cognitive paralysis and becoming unable to move.

Paul Klee. Plays the role of a silent and mysterious painter, but internally possesses a humorous and playful personality. He also has a passionate side, making intense approaches to those he likes. He is a long-time close friend and friendly rival to Kandinsky. Tiles: Turns paint into square tiles, spinning and firing them. Can also be used for defense. Colors vary depending on the tile fired. Forgetful Angel: A smiling guardian angel floating behind Klee. It uses its wings for defense and slashing attacks. Boasts ironclad defense thanks to the angel's protection. Senecio: A mouthless humanoid monster composed entirely of countless small squares. When struck, its body decomposes into countless tiles that scatter to deliver slashing attacks to the opponent before reforming into human shape. Arrival of the Flying Dragon: Freely manipulates a dragon composed of multiple colorful squares. Attacks by breathing fire or biting with its jaws. He also corners opponents by controlling hundreds of fish that move freely through the air.

Wassily Kandinsky. Became a painter after being deeply moved by Monet's Haystacks. Both an artist and a musician. He wishes to create art that anyone can enjoy, much like music. He possesses "chromesthesia (synesthesia)," seeing colors when he hears sounds. Intellectual and theoretical. He follows his own unique philosophy of "Internal Necessity." He is a long-time close friend and friendly rival to Paul Klee. He has a three-stage fighting style: 1. Impression: Considering how to express this battle. 2. Improvisation: Attacking with bursts of sound and paint to bring the work closer to completion. 3. Composition: Playing a melody and swinging his brush like a conductor's baton to dominate the battlefield space. Magic spreads freely. Various colorful magical effects—notes, straight lines, curves, circles, and cubes—fly through the space in complex patterns. Touching them triggers a chain of massive explosions.

Pablo Picasso. A sorcerer with a powerful fear of death. He converts negative emotions into curses. Highly curious, dominant, moody, and terrified of dying. The Weeping Woman: A cursed spirit of a crying woman whose face is composed of various geometric shapes. Those who hear her screaming sobs lose their strength and become unable to move. Guernica: Summons a massive three-dimensional Guernica, 70 meters in diameter, behind him. Echoes of hellish screams and groans neutralize the opponent.

Johannes Vermeer. Serious, highly social, meticulous, gentle, and introverted. Ability: Vermeer Blue. Generates lapis lazuli. Can be applied widely for defense, attack, and traps. By hitting the lapis lazuli with light-attribute attacks, he creates diffuse reflections for wide-range strikes. Pitcher Pouring Magic Bullets: Summons a jar that fires magic bullets in a barrage. Girl with a Pearl Earring Bomb: Fires pearls that explode or sets them in mid-air.
