 * Keiichiro Akasaka - The other creator of the Mew Project.
 * Masaya Aoyama - Ichigo's boyfriend and the first person to find out about the Mews.

 * Masha - A robot created for the Mew Project. Hangs out with his owner, Ichigo.
 * Ucha - A robot created to replace Masha after he left with Ichigo. Hangs out with his owner, Berry.

Background
The girls became Mew Mews because their DNA had been merged with endangered animals. Due to being infused, a Mew Mark appeared on the girl's bodies, the only exceptions are Berry and Ringo. Ryou also has a Mew Mark due to an experiment with his DNA gun.

With a tool known as the Mew Pendant, the girls can transform into human-animal hybrids in special outfits. When transformed, each member is referred to by a food-themed name with the prefix "Mew". (i.e, Bu-Ling is Mew Pudding, instead of Mew Bu-Ling)

All of the girls, except Ringo, work at Cafe Mew Mew. They all have uniforms for their work that serve no purpose other than being a uniform.

History
At first, Ichigo, Minto, Retasu, Bu-Ling and Zakuro were the only members of the group. In the PS1 game for Tokyo Mew Mew, Ringo joined them (as well as in the mini-manga series Petite Mew Mew) as the 6th Mew Mew. Berry Shirayuki joined the Mew Mews and became the temporary leader in the manga Tokyo Mew Mew a la Mode, making her the 7th and final member.

The girls first took up the name "Tokyo Mew Mew" after their battle with a Chimera Anima was broadcast on TV all over Tokyo.

In episode 46, Ichigo's boyfriend, Masaya, joins the Mew Project in support.
