The only one believes that is you. Crusch is a royal selection character, she's definitely not a minor character, and like was pointed out had an EX volume and numerous short stories featuring her and Felix.

I'm not sure how you don't think they don't have impact on the plot, both of them were involved in the White Whale subjugation, considering that you know, Crusch authorised it.

Ricardo hasn't had a single side story where he is the protagonist, that in itself speaks volumes about him being a minor character. Characters like Frederica and Otto have received side stories where they are protagonists (Otto's Peddling Record of Joy and Sorrow, Golden Siblings, Frederica and Petra's Maid Days, The Three Idiot series) so they have far more focus than Ricardo ever has had. I'd hesitate on calling either of those characters minor, though I wouldn't say they are major either. At a guess Tappei probably won't feature Ricardo much in the main story, since his main skill si fighting and he's lost his dominant arm, he probably won't feature as much in future arcs.
