== The Eds ==
Line 37:
* [[No Guy Wants to Be Chased]]: How they feel about the Kankers.
* [[No Social Skills]]: All three have difficulty relating to their peers.
* [[Not So Different]]: For all their widly different personalities, they do have things in common:
** The three, apart from sharing the same name, suffer [[Parental Neglect]] and [[No Social Skills|have difficulty relating to the other kids]].
** Ed and Edd are both [[Adorkable]] [[Nice Guy|Nice Guys]] who are [[Undying Loyalty|undyingly loyal]] to Eddy and each other, and are [[Beware the Nice Ones|terrifying]] when pushed too far.
** While Edd and Eddy are mostly complete opposites, they're both very snippy and sarcastic. Also, it's been shown Edd can be as [[Chronic Backstabbing Disorder|backstabbing]] and [[Never My Fault|unwilling to take responsibility]] as Eddy, only in [[Holier Than Thou|a different way]].
** Ed and Eddy are both very impulsive and chaotic. As seen in [[The Movie]], they're also [[Love Martyr|Love Martyrs]] to their [[Big Brother Bully|abusive siblings]].
* [[Odd Friendship]]
* [[Parental Neglect]]
Line 127 ⟶ 132:
* [[Where Does He Get All Those Wonderful Toys?]]: Apparently one of Ed's monster models can ''[[Breath Weapon|shoot fire from its mouth]]''.
{{quote|'''Eddy:''' ...Nice toy.}}
* [[World's Strongest Man]]: No doubt about it, Ed is ''the'' strongest character in the entire show, with only Rolf, the Kankers Sisters, and (arguably) Eddy's Brother providing competition for his strength. Without even the slightest difficulty, Ed is strong enough to lift houses over his head, pull a tree ''into'' the ground with his bare hands, carry an entire chimney while in the inside of his house, lift and hurl trailers, etc. While he often gets beaten up by the other kids along with the other Eds, it's heavily implied to be because he's too stupid to fight back (which isn't helped by Sarah constantly threatening to tell their mom on him). The moment Ed doesn't keel over to Sarah's demands, Sarah backs down immediately, knowing full well how strong Ed is compared to her. As Edzilla, he becomes a terrifying force of nature that the entire Cul-de-Sac tries to run away from. In the Halloween special where Ed hallucinates other people as monsters due to over-watching horror movies, he curb-stomps just about everyone that comes in his way, and even managed to beat Sarah, Kevin, and Rolf (though, Rolf wasn't actively attacking him) in one-on-one fights. After that, the kids decided that they should work together in order to get back at the Eds, and it's only because of that that Ed decides to high-tail out instead of staying and fight. He probably could've beaten Eddy's brother by himself through sheer brute force, but decided to take the more intelligent route (knocking him out-cold with a flying door to the face).
* [[Wouldn't Hit a Girl]]: One of the many reasons why Sarah will always beat Ed.
Line 135 ⟶ 141:
* [[Adorkable]]: The one dork who achieves it.
* [[Anti-Hero]]: [[Sliding Scale of Anti-Heroes|Type II]].
* [[Awesomeness By Analysis]]
Line 148 ⟶ 153:
** Edd owns 5,239 ants, and don't you dare mess with them.
** Being a [[Neat Freak]], sneezing on him is one of the worst things that can be done to him.
** Also, don't play mean pranks on him. Really, don't.
* [[Break the Cutie]]: In "A Fistful of Ed", "Cleanliness Is Close To Edliness" and [[The Movie]].
* [[Bookworm]]: He likes to read books.
Line 168 ⟶ 173:
* [[Fetish Fuel Station Attendant]]: You'd be surprised.
* [[Gadgeteer Genius]]
* [[Grew a Spine]]: On some occassions, most importantly in [[The Movie]].
* [[Holier Than Thou]]: Frequently. He ''does'' have a stronger moral compass than Eddy, but more often than not he enjoys rubbing it in his friends' faces. He gets called out of this by [[Jerkass Has a Point|Eddy]] in [[The Movie]], stating he isn't as innocent as he claims since he willingly participated and built all their scams, including the one that went horribly wrong in the movie.
* [[Morality Chain]]: He frequently acts as the Kyle to Eddy's Cartman.
* [[Mr. Fixit]]
* [[My God, What Have I Done?]]:
** When he creates "Edzilla" in "The Day The Ed Stood Still".
** Says this almost word for word in [[The Movie]]
* [[Neat Freak]]: To the point that in one episode that took place in autumn, he ''organizes the leaves by color as they fell''.
** And also:
Line 185 ⟶ 191:
* [[Not So Harmless]]: Shows up during later seasons, such as the one where Kevin gets grounded.
* [[Only Sane Man]]
* [[Rage Breaking Point]]: In [[The Movie]], he gets subjected to mean pranks by Eddy and Ed. The moment they go so far as to pretend they drowned in quicksand, he ''goes medieval'' on Eddy and tries to leave. How effective this was? This made [[Jerkass|Eddy]] '''break down in tears and admit his faults'''.
* [[Sensitive Guy and Manly Man]]: Sensitive Guy to Ed and Eddy's Manly Man.
* [[Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness]]
* [[Ship Tease]]: With Ed, Eddy
* [[The Smart Guy]]
* [[The So-Called Coward]]: Shows up, mainly in "The Day The Ed Stood Still" and the end of [[The Movie]].
Line 196 ⟶ 203:
* [[This Is Gonna Suck]]: "Oh my."
* [[Token Good Teammate]]: The most moral of the Eds (Ed is also good, but ''very'' [[Hanlon's Razor|stupid]]). In fact, he's pretty much the only Ed the other kids treat with anything resembling respect.
* [[Tranquil Fury]]: In [[The Movie]], it's clear he's pissed off at Eddy for his constant scams and pranks, but he still acts as his collected, snarky self. It's not until the quicksand scene [[Unstoppable Rage|his rage really becomes apparent]].
* [[Weekend Inventor]]: Often he's the provider for anything Eddy needs for a scam.
* [[You Got Spunk]]:
=== Eddy ===
Line 208 ⟶ 216:
* [[Anti-Hero]]: [[Sliding Scale of Anti-Heroes|(Type IV --> Type V)]] or [[Villain Protagonist]]: [[Depending on the Writer]].
* [[Attention Whore]]
*
*
* [[Cartoon Juggling]]: He juggles a variety of items that Ed throws at him, from chairs to Double D, in order to entertain Sarah while babysitting. [[Amusing Injuries|It goes fairly well until Ed throws him a cactus]].
* [[Character Tic]]: Whenever Eddy gets annoyed, disgusted, or just plain bored, [[Big Ol' Unibrow|his eyebrows connect]].
* [[The Chew Toy]]
* [[Disco Dan]]: His room looks like it never left the 1970s.
* [[Fat Idiot]]: Subverted. Eddy is noticeably the chubbiest character in the series, and he tends to fail at school...[[Brilliant but Lazy|but that's due to laziness rather than actual stupidity, since Eddy is shown to be quite clever at times]].
* [[Freudian Excuse]]: [[Big Brother Bully|His brother]] pretty much made him into who he is.
* [[Greed]]: A trait that often causes Eddy to drag his friends into big trouble.
* [[Hates Being Touched]]: Most certainly due to his brother.
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: In the film.
* [[The Hero]]
* [[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain]]
*
* [[Jack of All Stats]]: Among the Eds, he doesn't stack up with Ed's strength and endurance or Double D's intellect, but he's in-between the two in these traits as well as a ([[Ambiguous Disorder|technically speaking]]) more stable personality.
* [[Jerkass]]
** [[Jerkass Has a Point]]: Sometimes.
** [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: He's one [[Hidden Heart of Gold|deep down]].
**
* [[Lovable Rogue]]: Pre-[[Flanderization]] at least.
* [[Made of Iron]]: Like Ed, Eddy's been known to survive a ton of damage and beatings, only to get back up again. Although unlike Ed, he doesn't enjoy the pain too much to say, but can still take a lot of it. And it took a lot of damage, more than any regular human could take, to knock him out in "The Good, the Bad, and the Ed".
** Justified since
* [[Manipulative Bastard]]: In "All Eds Are Off".
* [[The McCoy]]
Line 246 ⟶ 252:
* [[Sensitive Guy and Manly Man]]: Manly Man to Double D's Sensitive Guy. (One of two)
* [[Seven Deadly Sins]]: He's committed all seven of these at least once.
* [[Small Name, Big Ego]]:
**
* [[Smug Snake]]
*
* [[Tasty Gold]]: Eddy bites into a quarter he gets from Kevin. He gets splinters on his tongue.
{{quote|'''Eddy:''' Your wooden money's no good here, Pecos Kev!}}
Line 257 ⟶ 263:
* [[Tongue-Tied]]: Eddy is literally this when he's around Nazz.
{{quote|'''Kevin:''' What's the matter, dork? Can't talk to girls?}}
* [[Took a Level in Jerkass]]: Eddy over time,
* [[Triple Nipple]]: Eddy claims that Ed has three nipples (like that guy from [[The Man with the Golden Gun|James Bond]]) to prevent Nazz from discovering that they are naked in her pool.
* [[Villain Protagonist]]
* [[The Voiceless]]: He becomes this in "Button Yer Ed", when a fly gets lodged in his throat, only allowing him to make wheezing, squeaky noises.
* [[Young Entrepreneur]]: Tries very hard to be this in order to get jawbreakers.
----
Line 277 ⟶ 283:
* [[Cute Bruiser]]: She apparently has Ed's genes for strength, as she has been shown to have the strength to carry a car.
* [[Enfante Terrible]]: She's downright evil at times.
* [[Everyone Has Standards|Even Jerks Have Standards]]:
* [[Fiery Redhead]] and [[Evil Redhead]].
* [[Glass Cannon]]: Implied whenever someone actually stands up to her. Best seen with Ed (her usual target of abuse) and even ''Johnny''.
* [[Jerkass]]: Especially to Ed and Eddy.
** [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: She
**
▲** {{spoiler|[[Jerkass Realization]]: Implied, when she witnesses Eddy being beaten up his older brother similar to how she abuses Ed, she was horrified.}}
* [[Little Miss Badass]]: And how!
* [[Mama Bear]]: She's basically Jimmy's bodyguard.
Line 293 ⟶ 298:
* [[Tsundere]]: You will very rarely see the dere side, but it's there.
** She mostly only shows that dere side of herself only to Jimmy.
* [[
=== Jimmy ===
Line 302 ⟶ 307:
** In his dream in "The Eds Are Coming", Kevin was SHIRTLESS.
* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: Caused by [[Break the Cutie]].
* [[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing]]: At his worst, especially in later seasons. Thankfully, he returned to be a [[Nice Guy]] by the time of [[The Movie]].
* [[Braces of Orthodontic Overkill]]
* [[Break the Cutie]]:
Line 307 ⟶ 313:
** In "A Fistful of Ed", Eddy pissed off Jimmy so much that he beat Double D to a bloody pulp.
* [[Butt Monkey]]
* [[Camp Straight]]
* [[Chew Toy]]: He is EXTREMELY accident-prone.
* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]: In "If It Smells Like an Ed".
* [[Nice Guy]]: When he's not a [[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing]], he's usually this.
* [[Noodle Incident]]: When he tries to pick up a quarter stuck to the ground using an eyelash curler. And then gets driven away in an ambulance.
{{quote|'' '''Kevin''': Looks like eyelashes are the only thing that thing curls!''}}
Line 324 ⟶ 330:
{{quote|Not to be confused with [[Todd Rundgren]]'s former band.}}
* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: Usually, she wouldn't be doing anything bad to anybody, including the Eds, but in the Halloween special, Ed, who has watched too many monster movies, mistakes her for Medusa and puts her in cement. Afterwards, she gets so pissed off and wants the hides of not just Ed, [[Disproportionate Retribution|but his friends, too!]]
* [[Big Beautiful Woman|Big Beautiful Girl]]: In "Every Which Way But Ed", Nazz reveals that she was huge when she was younger.
* [[Brainless Beauty]]: At first, that's her main role, but she eventually gets better.
Line 342 ⟶ 348:
* [[Only Sane Man]]: Well, she's the only one that doesn't have some strange feature or trait.
* [[Out-of-Character Moment]]: She snaps at the Eds in "Once Bitten, Twice Ed" during the raccoon scam.
* [[Smooch of Victory]]: Nazz honors Double D with a hug and a peck when he prepares to [[It Makes Sense in Context|sacrifice himself to stop Ed's rampage]].
▲* [[Ship Tease]]: With Kevin, {{spoiler|especially in [[The Movie]]!}}
▲* [[Smooch of Victory]]: Nazz honors Double D with a hug and a peck when he prepares to [[It Makes Sense in Context|sacrifice himself to stop Ed's rampage]]. {{spoiler|Eddy gets one too after surviving his brother.}}
* [[Talking to Herself]]: With May Kanker.
Line 366 ⟶ 369:
** [[Inspector Javert]]: Even when the Eds' schemes technically aren't frauds, he tries to stop them anyway. Of course, it helps that [[For the Lulz|Eddy always call them "scams" anyway]].
* [[Jerk Jock]]: He tends to play the archetypal cool kid. Girls like him, he's got a sweet bike, he's good at sports, and of course, [[Totally Radical|he wears his hat backwards]]. As icing on the cake, his dad conveniently works at the "jawbreaker factory" - which gives Kevin an unlimited supply of the series' Holy Grail.
* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: He's a [[Jerk Jock]] who is often a dick to the Eds, and can be bullying towards other kids. However, he does still get along with the kids, is best friends with [[Funny Foreigner|Rolf]], and is shown to be generous with his jawbreakers. In [[The Movie]], he defends Eddy when he's being beaten up by his brother, and forgives the Eds by inviting them to jawbreakers at the end.
* [[Kick the Dog]]: In "Your Ed Here", he forces Eddy to go through humiliating tasks in order not to reveal his [[Embarrassing Middle Name]]. And, despite doing everything he says, he still tells everyone Eddy's middle name.
* [[Moving the Goalposts]]: In the episode where he learns Eddy's [[Embarrassing Middle Name]], he uses the blackmail material to make Eddy perform all sorts of humiliating stunts, and at the end of the episode, he ''tells everyone the name anyway''.
* [[Pet the Dog]]: Has very many moments and examples of this with other characters, but moments such as these with the Eds are rare. In one episode, he struck up a polite conversation with Double D while fixing his bike, simply because Double D is kind, unlike Eddy, whom is the one who antagonizes Kevin in the first place. Ironically, Double D was going to prank him as forced by Eddy at the time, but he was unaware. (And Double D never went through with it.)
* [[The Rival]]: He and Eddy compete a lot. Kevin usually wins.
* [[Ship Tease]]: With Nazz,
* [[Talking to Himself]]: With Marie Kanker.
* [[Took a Level in Jerkass]]: He usually only
=== Rolf ===
Line 427 ⟶ 430:
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Once, he hid his ABC gum under a quarter so no one would take it. And it worked.
* [[Companion Cube]]: Plank.
*
* [[Jerkass]]: Particularly in "X Marks the Ed", where he makes fun of Eddy's zit and charges the other kids admission to point and laugh.
* [[Lightning Bruiser]]: As his alter-ego, Captain Melonhead. His strength and acrobatics were enough to fascinate Ed.
Line 468 ⟶ 471:
* [[Dumb Blonde]]: May. [[Averted]] in the Valentine's special.
* [[Evil Counterpart]] [[Distaff Counterpart]]: The Kanker sisters to the Eds. Lee is the [[Schemer]], Marie her quirky straight man, and May is completely out of touch, like Ed.
* [[Even Evil Has Standards]]: When they observe Edd and Eddy getting beat up by
{{quote|'''Lee:''' WHAT'S HE DOING TO MY MAN?!?}}
* [[Evil Redhead]]: Lee.
*
* [[Freudian Excuse]]: It can be inferred, from their introduction episode "Nagged to Ed", that the Kankers' boy obsession is related in some way to their mother either sleeping with, being married to (and divorced from), or dating three different guys (why else would The Kanker Sisters have three bathrobes with three different names on them) and, without a strong father figure (or any moral compass), the girls see their mom's behavior as acceptable.
* [[Hidden Depths]]: May, according to the Valentines Day episode.
* [[Hypocritical Heartwarming]]: In [[The Movie]].
* [[Jerkass]]: All have their moments, but Lee in particular is a jerk even to her sisters.
** [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: They do care about each other, though, and they seem to genuinely love the Eds.
* [[Lightning Bruiser]]: All three of them to an extent, though Lee is decisively the strongest.
* [[Missed Him by That Much]]: Throughout "Run For Your Ed". The Kanker Sisters are tearing up the cul-de-sac in search of their ship-in-a-bottle, while the Eds are stuck with it thanks to [[Continuity Nod|a sleepwalking Ed]].
Line 492 ⟶ 496:
=== Eddy's Brother ===
{{quote|A serious Ace, the coolest guy in the world. He taught Eddy everything he knows and is likely the least quirky character on the show.
* [[0% Approval Rating]]
* [[The Ace]]: Heavily implied to be this.
** [[Shrouded in Myth]]/[[Memetic Badass]]: By word of Eddy in "Ed, Pass It On".
*
*
*
*
*
** {{spoiler|[[The Sociopath]]}}: {{spoiler|To put it in perspective, he lives at a carnival now that he's left home, a carnival where there are [[Fridge Horror|plenty of kids...]] Yes, beating up on children is basically his whole life.}}▼
* [[Cool Shades]]
* [[The Dreaded]]: Just mere news about his arrival was enough to scare the pants out of everyone (except Sarah, who thinks all brothers are idiots). Even Rolf and the '''Kankers''' are afraid of him.
*
*
*
* [[Foreshadowing]]:
*
*
** Antonucci himself pointed it out:
*
* [[Hate Sink]]
* [[He Who Must Not Be Seen]]: He's never seen, and the only things that we know about him are Eddy's stories about him
*
*
* [[Karma Houdini Warranty]]: In [[The Movie]].
* {{spoiler|[[Last-Episode New Character]]}}▼
* [[Knight of Cerebus]]: Sort of. His abuse on Eddy is still displayed in a cartoony manner but it the trauma is played in a poignant light and is probably the single most serious scene in the entire series.
* [[Nice Hat]]
*
*
* [[No Name Given]]: Just called "Eddy's brother".
*
*
*

* [[Tomato Surprise]]: What do you think all these spoiler tags are hiding?
