Line 35:
* [[Nothing Exciting Ever Happens Here]]: And he still seems to say it even after everything that's happened to him.
* [[Only Sane Man]]
* [[Power Glows]]
* [[Replacement Goldfish]]: For Mamimi.
* [[The Stoic]]: For most of the series.
** [[Not So Stoic]]: As of episode 6.
Line 52:
* [[Badass Biker]]
* [[Biker Babe]]
* [[Betty and Veronica]]: Veronica to Mamimi's Betty.
* [[Beware the Silly Ones]]
* [[But Now I Must Go]]: {{spoiler|After Atomosk escapes Earth, Haruko leaves to chase after him. At first looked to be subverted in that she asked Naota to join her, but she immediately plays it straight by retracting the offer because he's "still a kid."}}
Line 71:
* [[It's All About Me]]
* [[Lack of Empathy]]: She's basically a borderline [[The Sociopath|sociopath.]]
* [[Loveable Sex Maniac]]
* [[Manic Pixie Dream Girl]]: With an emphasis on the "manic".
* [[Manipulative Bitch]]
* [[Master of Disguise]]: She ''tries'' at least. Most of the time [[Paper-Thin Disguise|her disguises are pretty transparent]], but when she really wants to disguise herself, she's capable of changing her voice and mannerisms so completely that her victims don't realize the difference. That is, until they hear their nurse's voice change mid-sentence, and then look up to see her sporting a great big [[Slasher Smile]].
* [[Obfuscating Stupidity]]: She's far more ruthless and calculating than her [[Genki Girl]] zaniness would suggest.
* [[Older Than They Look]]: She claims to be 19, but Naota has his doubts about that. After Haruko's first appearance Mamimi guesstimates that she's "At least 20 years old". It's later implied that when she and Amarao first met, he was Naota's age.
* [[Pretty Freeloader]]: Though she ''does'' help around the house. Somewhat. Maybe.
* [[Psychopathic Womanchild]]
Line 92:
* [[The Southpaw]]
* [[Space Police]]: Haruko claims to be one, {{spoiler|but she's apparently gone rogue}}.
* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: In episode 6.
-------
Line 102:
-------
* [[Betty and Veronica]]: Betty to Haruko's Veronica.
* [[Broken Bird]]
* [[Brown Eyes]]
* [[Bullying a Dragon]]: The Dragon in this case.
* [[Camera Fiend]]: Her first reaction to Naota and Haruko's [[Crash Into Hello]] is to take pictures of it.
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Thinks Canti is the Lord of Black Flame, the god character of her video game.
* [[Dangerously-Short Skirt]]: Not an [[Action Girl]], but she still sports one.
* [[Delinquents]]
* [[Damsel in Distress]]: Every time robot fight happens.
Line 121:
* [[Smoking Is Cool]]
* [[Shotacon]]: Subverted later on.
* [[Verbal Tic]]: Has a tendency to end her sentences with "~su."
* [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]: In episode 6.
* [[Yandere]]: She loses it when she finds out {{spoiler|Tasuku has an American girlfriend.}}
Line 131:
A medical robot with what looks like a television set for a head. He was manufactured by Medical Mechanica, but taken over by Atomsk as a way to escape them. After having his head broken by Haruko, he is recruited by her as an assistant; however, he proves to be no good for much other than washing dishes and fetching drinks for the family.
When called into battle, he can access Atomsk's power using Naota as a catalyst.
-------
* [[BFG]]: When channeling Atomsk, he gains the ability to transform into an antitank gun. Some fans theorize it's a [[What Do You Mean Its Not Symbolic|pitching machine]].
Line 188:
{{quote|Voiced by: Koichi Okura (JP), Dave Mallow (EN)}}
An agent from the Department of Interstellar Immigration, a [[The Men in Black]]-like agency. This agency, among other things, acts as a middle man for negotiations between the government and Medical Mechanica. Thus, Haruko is a big problem for them as she is bent on provoking an attack by disrupting communications.
Unlike other adults, such as Naota's father and teacher, he is mature and serious about his job. He has a [[Body Motifs|pair of eyebrows]] so large, people can't help but drop everything they're doing and just stare at them. He seems to have had a past relationship with Haruko similar to Naota's, and knows more about her than anyone else in the series.
-------
* [[Adult Child]]: [[Word of God]] says Amarao is basically an adult version of Naota with the same flaws.
Line 262:
* [[Dark-Skinned Blond]]: Heck her pictures the main one of the trope.
* [[Good Looking Privates]]
* [[Meaningful Name]]: It's the name of a light brown colour, which matches her skin tone.
* [[Nosebleed]]: Episode 4, and very blatant at that.
* [[Youthful Freckles]]
Line 277:
* [[Feathered Fiend]]
* [[Living MacGuffin]]
* [[Meaningful Name]]: Named after the novel ''Atomsk'', by Carmichael Smith (a pseudonym of Paul Myron Anthony Linebarger, better known as Cordwainer Smith).
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]
* [[No Pronunciation Guide]]: The anime pronounces it "atomisk" or "atomos'ku" (dub and sub, respectively), though the director's said he's not sure how it's really supposed to be pronounced. In the director commentary on the third DVD, the director states that he is unsure as to how it's really pronounced.
