Line 7:
 
{{examples|Tropes exhibited by Hane include:}}
* [[Big Ol' Eyebrows]]
* [[Blue Eyes]]
* [[The Chosen One]]: Suggested by events in Episode 4.
* [[The Cutie]]
Line 14 ⟶ 16:
* [[Idiot Hair]]: Although she's anything but an idiot.
* [[Innocent Fanservice Girl]]: Not as a matter of course, but when she washes her bike... whew.
* [[Oddly Visible Eyebrows]]
* [[Ordinary High School Student]]
* [[Parental Abandonment]]: For some reason, Hane's parents are in the United States, and apparently have been for quite a while and will continue to be so for the foreseeable future, leaving Hane and her younger sister Yume to live alone.
Line 32 ⟶ 35:
* [[Hair Decorations]]: Onsa ties up her shock of curly hair with a white bandanna.
* [[Malaproper]]/[[Little-Known Facts]]: Onsa seems to hover between these two tropes, always willing to make a confident-sounding guess when she reaches the boundaries of her ignorance or innocence. Unlike many examples of the latter trope, though, she occasionally makes it clear when she's not sure but trying to figure things out (like guessing that "proletariat" has some something to do with art because it has a syllable that sounds like "art" in it). Other times, though, she's just confidently wrong.
* [[Tomboy]]
* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Seems to be developing into this with Rin.
* [[Wrench Wench]]: It's her family business.
Line 51 ⟶ 55:
* [[Hair Decorations]]: She has bells and bows tying off her ponytails.
* [[Tsundere]]
* [[Twin Tails]]
* [[Vitriolic Best Buds]]: Seems to be developing into this with Onsa.
 
Line 83 ⟶ 88:
{{examples|Tropes exhibited by Raimu include:}}
* [[The Faceless]]
* [[Fan Nickname]]: "[[Top Gear|Stig]]-sempai" has already started appearing on the Net.
* [[Hair Decorations]]: Subverted by Raimu's big red bow -- which is affixed to the outside of her helmet. (Although her pigtails have little red bows at their ends, too.)
* [[Meaningful Name]]: In episode 7 the tote board for the bike race reveals that the spelling of her name in roman letters is actually "Lime" -- the color of her motorcycle.
** Her last name is unknown -- "Kawasaki" is a pseudonym given to her by the principal for her bogus student ID, inspired by her Kawasaki Ninja motorcycle.
* [[Older Than They Look]]: Raimu is actually in her middle to late thirties, if not older (at least two forty-something pro racers refer to her as "sempai") but is masquerading as a schoolgirl to watch over the bike club as a favor to the school's principal. It helps that she seems to naturally have very school-girlish body language.
* [[Shout-Out]]: Raimu is a very obvious shout-out to [[Top Gear|the Stig]], right down to wearing the same brand of helmet.
* [[Shrouded in Myth]]: The more we learn about Raimu, the more she seems to be this.
* [[Talking with Signs]]: When simple nods and gestures are insufficient to communicate her message, Raimu will resort to notes jotted down on paper.
Line 95 ⟶ 101:
 
== Hayakawa ==
Hijiri's butler and driver. Little is known about him, although the picture that is slowly forming seems to depict a [[Retired Badass]]. WhatAmong reallyother wasthings, ithe makes asides that indicate he didwas part of the [[wikipedia:Japanese prisoners of war in Siberia?the Soviet Union|Siberian Internment]], in which the Soviets held surrendered Japanese soldiers after World War Two in the Siberian gulags. Which would make him at the very least ''ninety years old''.
{{examples|Tropes exhibited by Hayakawa include:}}
* [[Cool Old Guy]]
* [[Covered with Scars]]: As we see in episode 4 at the hot springs.
* [[Older Than They Look]]: As noted above, Hayakawa makes off-handed comments that indicate he is a World War II veteran. He doesn't look like he's closing in on his 100th birthday...
