And Shine Heaven Now: Difference between revisions

Line 14:

----

{{tropelist|Besides many of the tropes found in ''Hellsing'', ''Shine'' also provides examples of:}}

* [[Aborted Arc]]: Set was supposed to be the main villain in a storyline where the villains killed in the Hellsing animated series would supposedly escape from Hell. It was dumped after [[Word of God]] discontinued the animated series, and more than half the people that would appear in this pseudo-storyline ceased to exist.

** The 'lost storyline' was a plot conceived in the early days of Shine, back when it was still gag-a-day format and Pip had yet to arrive on the scene. It had been supplanted by another plot and never picked up again. Some plot elements from this would be revived during the 'Getting Sick of Fangirls' plot.

** During the rerun of Eagle of Hermes, Erin tells of a few plots that, for one reason or another, never got off the ground, suck as Reseda meeting Helena or the [[Sherlock Holmes]]-[[Pet Shop of Horrors]] crossover.

Line 39:

* [[Dark-Skinned Blond]]: Timothy

** Uh, Integra? Hello?

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: The captain manages this despite being [[The Voiceless]]

* [[Deliberately Monochrome]]: Of the Limited Palette variety: The fangirl arc with [[Jeeves and Wooster (novel)|Jeeves and Bertie]] in it were portrayed in this style, with only the red of vampire eyes showing...and then the fangirls.

Line 64:

** And now Enrico has Bad Angel and [[The Sandman|Delirium]], who filled in for Enrico's good angel while he was lost in her domain. {{spoiler|This, natually, is taking place when Enrico goes batshit insane with power.}}

* [[Guest Strip]]: Used as filler to keep up the update schedule, with the side effect that any [[Series Hiatus]] is limited by the number of strips the readership can be coerced to send in.

* {{spoiler|[[Has Two Mommies]]: Turns out D just ''thinks'' Alucard is his father; he's actually Integra and ''Seras's'' child, and no, neither of them will say how.}}

* <s> [[Hermaphrodite]]</s> [[Hermaphrodite|Intersex]]: {{spoiler|Heinkel. A number of strips describe how Heinkel struggled to find a gender identity.}}

** Later...

{{quote|'''Jeeves:''' All of you are clad in the most garish, unappealing costumes ever to have been assembled from colors not found in nature.

'''Fangirls:''' [[Squee|WHEEEEEEEE OMG!]]

'''Alucard:''' [[Insult Misfire|Hey!]] }}

** Year 7: The [[Genre Savvy]] Major giving a fanboy version of his infamous 'I Love War' [[Rousing Speech]].

** Year 8: [[Jeeves and Wooster (novel)|Jeeves]] insulting everyone's clothes. Apparently it was just so Jeeves everyone fangasmed.

* [[Sunday Strip]]: Sometimes plot-relevant, but generally used to present non-storyline features, including Q&As, parodies, filk, and one-shots

Line 123:

''' {{spoiler|1=iJeeves}}:''' Indeed. {{spoiler|[slices Marian in to pieces}}] As a tactic, it leaves something to be desired. }}
