Some or all of these characters need descriptions. A list of tropes is not a description. Please provide at least a few words telling how these characters differ from other characters with the same tropelists. |
When you're traveling between universes, you're going to encounter lots of characters.
Be warned, this page will contain SPOILERS.
From the "real" universe
Miaka Yuuki / Suzaku no Miko
Voiced by: Kae Araki (Japanese, TV series), Noriko Hidaka (Japanese, radio dramas), Bridget Hoffman (English) |
A description of the character goes here.
- Attempted Rape: Frequently a victim of this as rape is supposed to neutralize her priestess powers.
- Badass Damsel: Played with. She's a Nice Girl who won't hesitate to headbutt or pile drive thugs, but apparenly she can't hit them hard enough to make them stay down. This means she still needs rescuing.
- Big Eater: One of the most emblematic female examples. It should be noted that, by Word of God, she's supposed to be pudgy.
- Blue Oni Red Oni: Miaka is the red; Yui is blue.
- Book Dumb: Subverted: she's shown as more or less average in grades and works hard to get good ones. And manages to get in a quite prestigious highschool.
- Bridget Hoffman: Under the pseudonym Ruby Marlowe.
- Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Displayed when she successfully saves her six bodyguards from Soi's lightning attack.
- Curtains Match the Window: Brown eyes and brown hair.
- Actually, Miaka's eyes are more hazel than truly brown.
- The Ditz:
- Driven to Suicide: More than once.
- Even the Girls Want Her: If you see Yui as her Psycho Lesbian Unlucky Childhood Friend...
- Expository Hairstyle Change: She starts wearing her hair down as she matured.
- Generic Cuteness: Is pretty, but not as beautiful as Yui.
- Good Samaritan
- Hollywood Pudgy: In-universe, she is called fat, but she's got a quite full figure compared with other anime girls.
- Idiot Heroine: Good grades or not, Miaka severely lacks common sense and does not use her brain very much.
- Lethal Chef
- Love Dodecahedron: She's pretty much the center of it.
- Martyr Without a Cause
- The Messiah
- Miko

- Attractive Bent Gender: he's a guy and yet he was selected to be in the emperor's harem. Though it seems that almost no one knows that he's a boy at first.

- Boisterous Bruiser
- Big Brother Mentor: To Houki.
- Characterization Marches On: Nuriko is mostly established as a fun, sensible ally... so it's pretty strange to look back at the early incident where he almost let Miaka drown in a pond out of psychotic jealousy over Hotohori.
