Characters

Main Characters

Heine Wittgenstein (??????????????, Haine Witogenshutain): Voiced by: Keisuke Ueda (Japanese); Micah Solusod (English); The titular royal tutor. Heine is an adult man who is often mistaken for a child due to his short stature. In contrast to his childlike looks, he's a very serious person who doesn't show much emotion, except when it comes to being mistaken for a child. He has a multitude of talents, and is stern but kind towards his charges. Not much is known about his past, except that he apparently knew the king long before he came to the palace to take up his duties, used to tutor at a church (he still does), and was a violent man in the past. He also was accused of being a criminal in the past, which turns out to be a false accusations.
Kai von Glanzreich (??????????????, Kai Fon Gurantsuraihi): Voiced by: Y?ya Asato (Japanese); Daman Mills (English); The 17 year old second prince, nicknamed "The Glaring Prince". He has a reputation of being aloof and scary, and it's rumored that he was kicked out of the military academy for getting into brawls. As it turns out, he was suspended because he beat a student who bullied and abused his brother Bruno. He's actually a kindhearted, introverted young man who's bad at social interactions and likes cute and soft things. He likes Heine because he's the first tutor to actually talk to him, and because he thinks of him as a cute pet. He is mistaken as scary because he has trouble speaking and often looks as if he is glaring due to his naturally sharp eyes. In the later chapters of the manga, Kai has returned to Military Academy and is currently away on a training trip.
Bruno von Glanzreich (????????????????, Bur?no Fon Gurantsuraihi): Voiced by: Y?to Adachi (Japanese); Christopher Wehkamp (English); The 16-year-old third prince, nicknamed "The Browbeating Brainiac Prince". He's considered to be a child prodigy and a genius. At first, he's dismissive of Heine because he never went to university and assumed that there's nothing that he could teach him, but his attitude changes when Heine beats him soundly in all the challenges he imposes on him, such as chess and mathematics. He starts to idolize him after that and calls him "master", much to Heine's chagrin. In the later chapters of the manga, he has left the palace to travel to his admired professor's country as a consort.
Leonhard von Glanzreich (??????????????????, Reonharuto Fon Gurantsuraihi): Voiced by: Daisuke Hirose (Japanese); Alejandro Saab (English); The 15-year-old fourth prince, nicknamed "The Everest-Pride Prince". He considers himself the most beautiful person on the continent. However, it's quickly revealed that behind his haughty demeanor, he is actually a very childish person prone to sulking and running away from his problems. He's a slow learner, and has an intense hatred of teachers because he was abused by them, though this slowly starts to change because of Heine's influence. He looks up to his older brother Bruno. He is extremely athletic and appears to love torte. Although he is not too intelligent, his simplistic way of thinking actually helps in creating solutions to certain problems. He often acts as a tsundere, pretending to be mean but in actuality wanting to be paid attention to and particularly enjoys being praised.
Licht von Glanzreich (???????????????, Rikuto Fon Gurantsuraihi): Voiced by: Shouta Aoi (Japanese); Stephen Sanders (English); The 14-year-old fifth and youngest prince, nicknamed "The Playboy Prince". He's very cheerful and easy-going, and is fond of being surrounded by beautiful women. He has a tendency to sneak out into town, because of his secret job as a waiter at a café. He's surprisingly a perceptive and serious young man despite his image as a playboy. Recently, he has moved out of the palace as he realizes he had half-hearted feelings towards being a king as he grew to love his job as a waiter, and decided to no longer be a king but instead live independently and as a normal person working as a waiter.
