- Kido Madoka - May have first appeared in the background during the pool battle (hard to tell between her and Saeko). Debuted with Umezu in vol 5's b chapter. Doesn't really show up often but when she does, the story usually focuses on her or mentions her.

- Toki Nagayama - Appeared in the background mostly. Was an unknown girl until she was featured in the Teahouse - Theater battle. Asked out by Tanaka. Author Jin Kobayashi supposedly called her a "hidden treasure", perhaps refering to her background appearances.
- Kozue Mihara - First seen chatting with Imadori. Part of the girls' relay race. Was on the theater army. Appears very infrequently and has not been featured in a story, but is quite visible because of her kogal appearance.
- Yuuki Tsumugi - Mai Ootsuka's sidekick. Appears in the background a lot. Had a b-chapter devoted to her which revealed her crush on Hanai. Considered a frequently occuring character.
- Mina Yukino - First appeared during the baseball chapter. Frequently appears in the background with Rinko. Had her most screentime during the Theater - Teahouse battle. Interesting note: Her last name was seen in the tea house list of girls but it wasn't until the anime that the name was associated with her. Mina was in the 3rd character popularity contest undert he name "2-C Girl 2"
- Saeko - May have appeared during the pool battle but that could have been Madoka. Appeared very infrequently. Got her most screentime during the culture festival where she catered to Goriyama. She actually appears less than the unknown girls!
- Unknown Girl 1 - Has some moderate appearances in the background. Member of the teahouse army. Talked to Tenma in the restroom during the culture festival. Apparently appeared on vol 12's cover insert.
- Unknown Girl 2 - Has some moderate appearances in the background. Apparently appeared on vol 12's cover insert.
- Kaori - Very infrequent appearances, but she's there, mainly in the early volumes. Her name is revealed on the roster of girls in the tea house but she is never actually called Kaori by anyone. She is also quite tall compared to the other girls.
- Ayano Kinugawa - Originally appeared in the chapter about Otoko posing nude. Was prominent during the teahouse-theater battle arc. In the anime, one of the unknown girls was replaced by Ayano in the bathroom scene with Tenma. Was part of the play. Her family owns a bathhouse. Saitou has a crush on her. Appears to be shy as she doesn't speak much.
- Rinko - Possibly the most frequently appearing background character, named or unnamed. Has been around since Harima's debut. Most prominent appearance was during the play where she was the narrator. 2ch fans called her "Rinko" (as in Neighbor Girl) because she sat next to Harima and the anime producers decided to name her as such. Technically unnamed in the manga although it is likely that Jin Kobayashi will go ahead and call her Rinko. Rinko was in the 3rd character popularity contest under the name "2-C Girl 1"
Note: When Tenma looks at the 2-C roster in the first chapter, the name Tonami Junko appears below it. Also in a fairly recent chapter, Saitou mentions the name Fujikou as a girl who went out with Saeko and Madoka. These two names may possibly be the names of the two unknown girls, although we have no idea which is which.
