Line 19:
* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: Blonde in the manga, orange hair in the anime.
* [[Afraid of Needles]]: The only clue to Excel's life before ACROSS is that she is unnerved by needles and does not know why.
* [[Anti
* [[Anti
* [[Ax Crazy]]: If given the opportunity for violence on missions.
* [[The Chew Toy]]: Excel's suffering at the hands of her boss is almost always [[Played for Laughs]].
Line 41:
* [[The Other Darrin]]: [[Jessica Calvello]] was replaced as the English dub voice of Excel by Larissa Wolcott because [[Real Life Writes the Plot|doing Excel's shrill voice proved to be too much on Cavello's vocal cords.]]
* [[Perky Female Minion]]: Though anyone would look calm when compared to Excel.
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: The Red Oni to Hyatt's Blue Oni. The anime even gives them fitting hair colors.
* [[Repetitive Name]]: Excel claims in the anime that her first name is Excel and her last name is Excel, but it is not clear if that if that is her real name, just her codename, and if she was using hyperbole.
* [[Talkative Loon]]
Line 63:
-----
* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: Brown hair in the manga, dark blue hair in the anime.
* [[Anti
* [[Anti
* [[Blood From the Mouth]]
* [[Comedic Sociopathy]]: Hyatt is possibly not aware of how much damage she causes, unlike the rest of ACROSS, who do not care. On a smaller scale, she does not know about all the emotional grief she causes Watanabe.
* [[Death By Falling Over]]
* [[Demoted to Extra]]: During the final five episodes.
* [[Eerie Pale
* [[Girl in A Box]]: In the anime at least, Hyatt was first seen in a coffin aboard the Puuchu spaceship, which later floated into ACROSS headquarters.
* [[Ill Girl]]: So ill that she will die for no reason.
Line 78:
* [[Out of Focus]]: Has gotten less screentime in the manga after Elgala joined, since Elgala butts head with Excel instead of just following Excel's lead.
* [[Proper Lady]]: Sexual innuendos aside, that is.
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: The Blue Oni to Excel's Red Oni. The anime even gives them fitting hair colors.
* [[Running Gag]]: Her dying; her obliviousness.
* [[Shy Blue
* [[They Killed Kenny Again]]
* [[Villain Protagonist]]
Line 94:
* [[Alpha Bitch]]: At least that's what she longs to be.
* [[The Chew Toy]]
* [[Did I Just Say That Out Loud?]]: Elgala has a problem keeping her thoughts internalized.
* [[The Rival]]: To Excel over Il Palazzo's affection (not that he notices).
* [[Smug Snake]]: Thinks she's better than her seniors even though she's really no more competent than they are.
Line 113:
-----
* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: Pale cyan in the manga, pale lavender in the anime.
* [[Anti
* [[Badass]]: In the anime, when actually given a chance to be competent, is QUITE effective at beating the crap out of the entire cast. Most of this takes place while [[Brainwashed and Crazy]] (heavy on the crazy), but he was still kicking ass while it lasted.
* [[Bad Boss]]: To Excel, since she ''is'' [[The Chew Toy]].
Line 124:
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: In the anime's [[Grand Finale]]; his dark side bent on conquest is eliminated.
* [[Large Ham]]: "This world...is CORRUPT!!!"
* [[Laser
* [[Leitmotif]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p07igwjMSQk&lr=1 Nanka Nayamunda. Kekkou Nayamunda. Ichiban Nayamunda]
* [[Limited Wardrobe]]: Il Palazzo only has a giant cloak to wear in the anime. In the manga he also has a black business suit, but that's it.
Line 134:
* [[Split Personality Takeover]]: In both the anime and the manga. In the anime is it a much more obviously evil personality, while in the manga it's so vague that it barely counts as a different personality at all, only being much more competent.
* [[Villains Out Shopping]]: While his minions are away attempting (and failing repeatedly) to conquer [[No Communities Were Harmed|F City]], Il Palazzo indulges in such villainous pastimes as...guitar and video games.
* [[Well
* [[White
* [[The White Prince]]: Despite his ideological beliefs about how the "masses" should live their lives, Il Palazzo is uncomfortable and bored when he actually has to interact with the "lower world" himself.
Line 150:
** Excel's high school, Inu-nabe, translates literally to 'Dog-pot'. So that's where she learned it from.
* [[Leitmotif]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5yKHIBye0w&feature=relmfu Menchi Aishuu no Borero Kuwasonone]
* [[Non
* [[Precious Puppies]]: The other reason for Menchi/Mince's presence.
Line 195:
* [[Hero Antagonist]]
* [[Idiot Hero]]: At least he thinks he's a hero. He is definitely an idiot.
* [[Near
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: [[Plot Armor]] and the sentai suit protect him in the anime, and his [[We Can Rebuild Him|reparable body]] protects him in the manga.
Line 236:
* [[Gamer Chick]]
* [[Hero Antagonist]]
* [[Hey
* [[Last
* [[Leitmotif]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsY2CyvDpHA&feature=BFa&list=PL89A73FF8477DF062 Kakkoii Kyokuni Nattanaa, Um]
* [[Sugar and Ice Personality]]: Though her "sugar" side isn't "big softie" as much as it is "pleasant".
Line 255:
----
* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: Blonde in the anime, green in the manga, though manga cover art that showed Kabapu's hair color was released so long after the anime that the anime creators did not know.
* [[Anti
* [[Badass Mustache]]: A really long one, which is actually fake in the anime but real in the manga.
* [[Bad Boss]]: For the Civil Servants. Kabapu is not malicious towards his employees, but is unconcerned for their safety when he makes them work.
Line 264:
* [[President Evil]]: More like Vaguely Defined Government Position Evil, but he had about as much power {{spoiler|which is legitimized once he is elected mayor of Fukuoka}}.
* [[Scary Shiny Glasses]]
* [[Well
=== Ms. Momochi ===
Line 291:
----
* [[Always Second Best]]: To his father Tenmangu, and to his mother, below.
* [[Lolicon]]: The series couldn't make it any more obvious with Dr. Shiouji if they tried. In fact, [[Laser
** The manga on the other hand goes on to explain {{spoiler|as a child his father disappeared which caused a massive behavioral shift in his mother. She began smothering him with affection and becoming overly sexual around him. When he met his young cousin and future assistant/intern Umi, his distorted image of women was shattered and he was inspired by her purity and innocence. Now that she's eighteen in the present day, he adjusts his attention to other young girls as he seeks to recapture that same inspiring purity and innocence once again.}}
*** He doesn't really do anything other than watch, in the manga at least. It's pretty strongly implied that he made Ropponmatsu II to satisfy the more carnal sides of his fantasies.
Line 300:
[[File:Ropponmatsu_I_6890.jpg|frame]]
The first robot Dr. Shiouji built for Kabapu. Ropponmatsu I was built as a [[Do
In the manga, Il Palazzo kidnaps her {{spoiler|and dresses her up to look like Excel}}. Il Palazzo sets her up as the vice president of ILL Electronics, with the rest of ACROSS unaware that she is a robot. After a fight with Daitenzin Ropponmatsu's programming gets scrambled and she becomes subservient to Excel {{spoiler|while still dressed as Excel}}.
Line 310:
=== Ropponmatsu II (Nishiki) ===
==== Voiced by: [[Satomi Koorogi]] (JP), [[Kira Vincent
[[File:Ropponmatsu_II_244.jpg|frame]]
Line 323:
* [[Multicolored Hair]]
* [[Robot Girl]]
* [[Rose
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|You Gotta Have Purple Hair]]
Line 370:
* [[Dr. Jerk]]: He is a parody of [[Black Jack (Manga)|Black Jack]], but without the redeeming qualities.
* [[Scars Are Forever]]: Has had a giant X-shaped scar on his face since he was four.
* [[Screw the Rules, I Have Connections]]: His daddy owns the hospital, so he doesn't think he needs to worry about medical ethics.
=== Shiki Fukuya ===
Line 405:
* {{spoiler|[[Kamehame Hadoken]]: Parodied with his "Nabehameha".}}
* [[Leitmotif]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yq2b4-ZoDtE Sokomade Hisanni Narunante Iwanakettayan]
* [[Near
* [[Ocular Gushers]]: [[Lampshade Hanging|"Pedro's tears are once again flowing like waterfalls!"]]
* [[Third Person Person]]
Line 440:
* [[Bigger Bad]]: {{spoiler|Is the actual leader of ACROSS}}.
* [[Evil Counterpart]]
* [[
* [[The Man Behind the Man]]
* [[Yakuza]]: Or at least, he looks and acts like one.
