Characters
- Elmore Evans (エルモア・エヴァンス, Erumoa Evuansu)
- The Sheriff of a small town in the Wild West. He is skilled at his work and weapon handling, but terrible with women. He says things that are not necessarily true to impress women, often getting into wacky predicaments.

- A bounty hunter and a self-proclaimed rival of Sheriff Evans. She has feelings for Evans, but cannot express them due to her pride.
- Evans' father (エヴァンスの父, Evuansu no Chichi)
- The former Sheriff of the town. His words and lessons are followed by his son.
- Ted Hall (テッド・ホール, Teddo Hōru)
- Evans' deputy sheriff.
- Abby Earp (アビー・アーブ, Abī Ābu)
- A Deputy U.S. Marshall operating in the region. She is clumsy and is often thought to be angry by others, but is in fact a self-conscious person.

- The Sheriff of Mark Flag, a neighboring village.
