From the light novel series written by Minase Hazuki, comes a story of love, action, and comedy. Yachi Haruaki is a high school boy who is naturally resistant to curses. After his father sends him a mysterious black cube, Haruaki awakes to find a nude girl named Fear standing in his kitchen.

Characters and Voice Actors:

- Main:

Fear "Fear-in-Cube" Kubrick

Fear is the female protagonist of C³. She claims to be a "cursed tool" that has been exposed to so much hatred and negativity that it allowed her to gain a consciousness, and says that she came to Haruaki's home in hopes of purifying her "curse". She's actually a fictitious device called Fear In Cube, a terrible torture device from the Inquisitions.

- Tamura, Yukari (Japanese)

- Park, Seon Yeong (Korean)

Konoha Muramasa

Konoha attends the same school as Haruaki. She is not human and can transform into a sword. Like Fear, she is a "cursed tool" who has gained a will through the pain and hate that had long surrounded her, making the sword her original form. The wielder of the sword she transforms into also suffers from the injuries they inflict on their opponent. Her ability Killing Counter allows the wielder to focus on the opponent's weapon's weak points and destroys their weapon. Fear refers to Konoha as "Cow boobs."

- Chihara, Minori (Japanese)

- Lee, So Eun (Korean)

Kirika Ueno

Student Body President and classmate of Haruaki. She has two cursed tools. The first, called Ginstrnag's Love, is an article of clothing that prevents the user from dying when worn. In exchange, the user's heart dies and they must wear it forever. The second tool, The River of Black Strings, has the ability to induce the opponent's murderous intents and serial murders and use it against them. She used to be part of an organization called Nightcrawlers.

Spoiler:

The River of Black Strings curses the user to want to hurt or kill somebody. Kirika usually satisfies the curse by killing herself and coming back to life as she wears the Ginstrnag's Love.
