Description[]
The Midnight Boys are a foursome of attractive and well-dressed young men who worked for Midnight. They appear to function as a combination of a hero team and fan club, showing both great concern for Midnight's health following a battle and intense jealousy towards a defeated villain after Midnight mockingly kissed him. They refer to Midnight as "Mistress Midnight" (ミストレス・ミッドナイト Misutoresu Middonaito?)[2]
