Gundam SEED Character Theater

Gundam Seed Character Theater is a short series of omakes included with the DVD edition of the Gundam Seed Destiny series. They are hilarious and in no way meant to be taken seriously, and good-naturedly mock everything about the series in general.

The following tropes apply:
 * The Ace - Yzak thinks Athrun is this and attempts to discover his secret in the first short.
 * Boring Failure Hero- The ZAFT people (Shinn, Rey, Luna, Meyrin) try to be heroes to ZAFT (and in Rey's case Gilbert). This is usually the result.
 * Deadpan Snarker - Dearka to Yzak. Up to Eleven, as that seems to be Dearka's entire dialouge range.
 * Depth Deception - Hey, it's Tori, Kira's little robot bir-HOLY SHIT WHEN DID HE GET SO BIG?!
 * Epic Fail - The results of trying to destroy Athrun and Kira's friendship backfire like you wouldn't believe.
 * Hilarity Ensues - The raison d'etre behind the whole thing.
 * Ho Yay - Kira and Athrun take it Up to Eleven, in a tip of the hat to all the joke the fans have been making since Gundam Seed debuted. Rey, on the other hand, is seriously bordering on this with Durandal.
 * Failure Is the Only Option - Even when Yzak wins, he loses.
 * Fandom Nod - SEED Mode Lacus' Talking the Monster To Death includes a black Battle Aura and Scary Shiny Eyes in reference to the Alternate Character Interpretation of her as a villain.
 * Foe Yay - The whole point of Yzak's "Jealousy" omake. Makes up most of the humor of the other omakes as well.
 * Refuge in Audacity - Shinn. In drag. Singing one of Lacus' pop standards while shredding the stage with Sword Impulse's BFS. That is all.
 * Make Wrong What Once Went Right - In the second short, Shinn, Rey and Luna's mission is to destroy Kira and Athrun's lifelong friendship.
 * Hitler's Time Travel Exemption Act - It doesn't work.
 * Mission Control - Meyrin. Oddly, Talia Gladys is missing, and her filling this role would make even more sense.
 * Moe Anthropomorphism - The whole character design of everyone. Even more silly when it averts this.
 * Nice Job Breaking It, Hero - Rey's attempt to sabotage Lacus' cooking make it even better to Kira.
 * Rule of Cool - EVERYONE can go into SEED mode, and they usually dial their own awesome Up to Eleven.
 * Rule of Funny
 * Shout Out - To Gundam in general, and even Sailor Moon at one point.
 * Super Deformed
 * You Have Failed Me - What Rey the Gilbert Durandal fanboy lives in fear of from the man himself.
