Voiced by: Meguru Takahashi (Japanese); Johnny Yong Bosch[1] (English)

Guren Nash (大神 グレン, Ōgami Guren, Guren Ougami) is the main protagonist and leader of the new generations of Tenkai Knights. He has a knack for leadership (though he still has to grow into the role) and doesn't have fear even before more difficult things. Guren is described as always having a positive attitude. He can transform into Bravenwolf, the leader of the original Tenkai Knights. He describes himself as "Tenkai Power". As Bravenwolf, he is armed with a Tenkai Sword and shield. Guren is the first to unlock both Titan mode, enlarging to twice his normal size and capable of releasing energy slashes, and Elemental Titan mode, though he does lose it for a period of episodes. He is best friends with Ceylan, Toxsa, Chooki, and soon, Gen and Beni. After being infused with a Dragon Cube, his appearance changed and was known as Bravenwolf Tenkai Firestorm. With his new elemental power, this allows him to a giant ball of fire on the tip of his sword and throw it at the target.

His core brick is Bravenwolf (ブレイヴン, Bureivun, Braven).

Ceylan Jones (鷲崎 セイラン, Washizaki Seiran, Seiran Washizaki) is friendly, goofy, outgoing and a big practical joker. When not goofing off however, he can be surprisingly cautious. Ceylan can transform into Tributon. He describes himself as "Tenkai Speed". As Tributon, he is armed with a Tenkai Crossbow and Arrow Blaster and a shield. Ceylan is the second to unlock Titan mode, enlarging to twice his normal size and using a long bow blaster to shoot energy.

During the course of the series, in some episodes, Ceylan does get a bit depressed, due to his skills not meeting the skills of his other fellow Knights. Due to this depression, he almost quits the team in one episode, but thankfully, his friends remind him of what he brings to the table.

At one point in the series he dubbed himself "Ceylan Awesome Jones".

His core brick is Tributon (トリビュトン, Toribyuton).

Toxsa Dalton (亀山 トクサ, Kameyama Tokusa, Tokusa Kameyama) is at least as smart as them and thus in the same grade, though Toxsa's a year younger than his teammates. He is something of a tech geek. Toxsa enjoys playing video games and tinkering with digital equipment when not helping out at his family's diner. He is quirky, short-tempered and is more comfortable with computers than with people. Toxsa can transform into Valorn. He describes himself as "Tenkai Strength" and also claimed to be the physically strongest of the Knights. As Valorn, he is armed with a Tenkai Lance that can fire green energy charges or a green energy beam from the end as well as a shield. Toxsa is the fourth and last to unlock Titan mode, enlarging to twice his normal size and gaining a sword like polearm that can split open to release large energy blasts.

His core brick is Valorn (ヴァローン, Varōn).

Chooki Mason (蜂須賀 チュウキ, Hachisuka Chūki, Chuuki Hachisuka) has a calm disposition. He is the best athlete of the team and always looks forward to a challenge. Chooki can transform into Lydendor. He describes himself as "Tenkai Agility". As Lydendor, he is armed with a Tenkai Kunai Saber with Chain that he can wield in melee combat or cause the blade to shoot out on a chain to use it as a flail⁠, and a shield that has three curved blades that he can throw and have it return to him. Chooki is the third to unlock Titan mode, enlarging to twice his normal size and his shield resembles a large shuriken which he uses offensively and defensively.

His core brick is Lydendor (ライデンドール, Raidendōru).

Gen (犬飼 ゲン, Inukai Gen, Gen Inukai) is a mysterious new student who transfers to Guren's school. He formerly worked under Vilius and can transform into Dromus, a Tenkai Knight who bears a strong resemblance to Bravenwolf except with grey & black armor with a scar on the left eye of his chest plate, and like Guren he too describes himself as "Tenkai Power". Gen had lost his mother and father for some unknown reasons and was given the Dromus brick by the Tenkai guardian Eurus. After Vilius stole the Black Dragon Key from him, he became the official 5th member of the Tenkai Knights and an ally of the Corekai Soldiers.

His core brick is Dromus (黒騎士, Kurokishi, Krokshi, Black Knight).

Beni (ベニ, Beni) is a pink-haired girl who was an accomplice to Gen. She can transform into Venetta, an evil Tenkai Knight with armor that resembles a spider. She seeks to have both worlds destroyed because her father spent more time searching for Quarton and less time with her, feeling that both worlds destroyed her life. Beni tricked the Tenkai Knights into thinking she had turned over a new leaf, but she and Gen worked together to trick the Tenkai Knights into finding the Dragon Key for them. She later went rogue after finding out Lord Vilius stole the Black Dragon Key from Dromus. Beni eventually officially turns over a new leaf for real after meeting and spending time with Chooki's cousin Kiro, and becomes the 6th & only female member of the Tenkai Knights as well becoming an ally to the Corekai Soldiers in the season 1 finale.

Her core brick is Venetta (ヴェネッタ, Venetta).

Commander Beagle (or Beag for short) (ビーグ, Bīgu) is the founder and commander of the Corekai Soldiers. He is often confused by the otherworldly comments the young six Tenkai Knights make due to him not knowing they aren't the original Tenkai Knights. Beag seems to have a case of hero worship, but is fairly intelligent. He and his four allies Kutor, Leinad, Senjo, and Tavox joined the Tenkai Knights in Robofusion, granting them the ability to use both the Protojet and the Airlancer Jet at the same time. He also saves the Tenkai Knights a lots in the Beast World, due to them being powerless as humans. He also changes in the Beast World from brick-looking to a robot, due to the fact that all the tenkai knights must be human. He helped a lot in the final battle, when he traveled to Earth to remove both Granox and Slyger, and also was ready to sacrifice himself for the fortress.

Tavox

A gray and green Corekai Soldier.

Senjo

A gray and yellow Corekai Soldier.

Vilius (ヴィリウス, Viriusu) is the main antagonist of the first season. He was once a Tenkai Knight, but his energy became negative and turned against his former teammates. From then, Vilius leads the Corrupted Army as their warlord to obtain Tenkai Energy and awakening the Tenkai Dragon. He is a very intelligent leader, and a deadly warrior with an armor that represents the Bat with a trident as his only weapon. Vilius can use Robofusion with the foot soldiers to turn into the Xenoship and can also assume Titan mode. Although he has been defeated by Bravenwolf, he still manages to come back to life and makes plans to also invade Earth.

Granox (ブライノックス, Burainokkusu, Brinox) is a powerful henchman who works under Vilius. His armor seems based on a Rhinoceros' armor, and he is armed with a halberd or axe on a pole with a shield. Granox is usually a coward avoiding danger, and seeks to utilize his opponents' weaknesses.

During battles, the Tenkai Knights called him by many offensive names, the most appearing is "Bucket Head."

Tenkai Dragon (テンカイドラゴン)

A gigantic dragon that serves as the neutral defense system of the planet Quarton. It was once under the possession of Vilius and used to exterminate any target and wipe out several Corekai armies due to its incredible power. However, it was defeated and sealed into several fragments by the Tenkai Knights and only the White Dragon Key or the Black Dragon Key are required to unseal it. The team who commands the dragon depends on which key is used to awaken it (Black Key=Bad Dragon, White Key=Good Dragon). When Villus returns, he steals the dragon cubes from the knights in order to revive it. But because Villus didn't use the Dragon Keys to revive the dragon it became unstable and split off by a single blow from Dromus, into 5 white (good) and black (bad) cubes in which the white cubes are absorbed by the Tenkai Knights & Dromus, and the black cubes to Villus respectively granting them their Elemental Titan modes. Later it's revealed that they can use the dragon cubes they absorbed to each summon a separate dragon, a good to the Tenkai Knights and an evil to Vilius (Both Summoned at the same time) for commands.

Tenkai Wolf

Hidden within the Tenkai Fortress, the Tenkai Wolf was summoned after the crest Bravenwolf received from Orangor activated. It granted Bravenwolf a new form and powers and proceeded to fight alongside him to defeat Villius. He is super powerful.
