Mitsumete Knight/Characters: Difference between revisions

* [[Dude Where's My Respect]]: Mostly averted, since he gets Medals each time he accomplishes heroic deeds. {{spoiler|Cruelly played straight however at the end of the game, since, even if you have beaten all the 8 Generals, gained the Holy Knight Title, and have the favours of the King and Princess Priscilla, the Asian will have to leave Dolphan Kingdom regardless due to the Expulsion of All Foreigners Act [[Deadly Decadent Court|forcefully concluded by the powerful]] [[Aristocrats Are Evil|evil Pixis and Elites aristocrat families.]]}}

* [[Armor Piercing Slap]]: She delivers one of these to the Asian if you choose to talk ill about Sophia's drunken father attitude towards him, in the Event where you meet him.

* [[Big Screwed Up Family]]: Boy, her family is one hell of a case. Her father is [[The Alcoholic|an alcoholic]] {{spoiler|who's [[Drowning My Sorrows|Drowning His Sorrows]] of, when Sophia was 10 years old, having his leg incapacitated after a skirmish against Procchia, and being forced to both take responsibility for this failed battle which also cost all the battalion he commanded, and resign from the army}} ; her mother and her little brother [[Ill Girl|are affected by a heart disease]] and her mother concentrate all her attention and affection towards her brother, [[The Unfavourite|thus neglecting her daughter and making them estranged]]. To top that off, they are poor and in debt, and Sophia is basically the only person who holds the family together financially-wise thanks to her part-time jobs.

* [[Daddys Girl]]: She's fully aware of and saddened by her father's alcoholism, but beware her [[Armor Piercing Slap]] if you ever slander him, as she's very close to and worried about him.

* [[Memento MacGuffin]]: Notes from [[Word of God]] in [[All There in the Manual|Volume 75 of Dengeki Playstation Magazine]] mentions that, because of her mother's illness, Sophia's family already had financial difficulties, and she never had birthday presents... Until her 7th birthday, where her father offered her a music box. It was an old wooden box, but his father clumsily carved on its bottom "To my beloved Sophia". [[Daddys Girl|This left a powerful impression on Sophia which made her love her father even more]], and even nowadays, when she opens the music box, her eyes always get wet.

* [[Why Do You Keep Changing Jobs]]

* [[You Go Girl]]: She actively tries to make her dream of becoming a theatre actress come true, {{spoiler|and in her first crucial Event where she goes at an audition to get a place in the theatre band, she refuses [[Screw the Rules I Have Money|Johan's offer to bribe the judges]] and wants to get her place by her own efforts. She fails the audition, but the judges were impressed enough by her prestation that, a week later, they offer her to take her as an apprentice anyway.}} Subverted {{spoiler|unfortunately, as this is also what leads her to the streak of [[Break the Cutie]] events where she's a victim of the Theater's terrorist attack and (temporary, if the Asian stays by her side) loses her voice due to the trauma, near the end of the game.}}

[[Everythings Better With Princesses|The Princess of Dolphan Kingdom]] (starting age 16), she's the sole direct heir to the Royal line. A free-spirited, wild, mischievous and cheerful by nature [[Genki Girl]], she makes efforts to be a responsible and wise princess in official receptions for her beloved father, [[I Just Want to Be Normal|but deep down longs for a life as a normal commoner girl]]. [[King Incognito|Thus why she often slips out of the castle to blend with the population and see their lives]], bringing much worry to the castle's folk, and this is the way the Asian will get to meet her. She feels lonely as nobody understands her wild nature (and she gets often scolded for it), and wishes to find someone who's just as playful as her and understand her.

* [[Everythings Better With Princesses]]

* [[Requisite Royal Regalia]]: In her princess-mode, she wears a [[Pimped Out Dress]], a crown, lots of jewelry, and an [[Ermine Cape Effect|ermine cape]].

* [[Spell My Name With an S]]: Official works tend to use "Priscila", but the Western players use "Priscilla".

* [[Well Excuse Me Princess]]: Bonus points for being an actual princess.

* {{spoiler|[[Beauty Is Never Tarnished]]: subverted, see [[Good Scars Evil Scars]] below}}

* {{spoiler|[[Daddys Girl]]: Well, her mother is implied to be dead.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Daddys Little Villain]]: When following her route, if she doesn't love you enough and you refuse to fight her, she'll swear to take over and rebuild the Valpha-Valaharian Mercenary Brigade, and one day to come back destroy Dolphan Kingdom.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Face Heel Turn]]: In her route, if the Asian defeats her father Wolfgario, one week later she'll come at him for revenge, as Salishuan the Spy of the Eight Generals. [[Lost Forever|It's a permanent one]] if she's not deeply in love with him, but if she is, she'll be torn between her duty of revenge and her love for him, allowing you to give her a [[Get a Hold of Yourself Man|Get A Hold Of Yourself Woman]] by defeating her in duel, then reminding her father's last words pleading her to live, as an ordinary woman, and allowing you to get her Ending.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Good Scars Evil Scars]] / [[Scars Are Forever]]: She always wear her red gloves to hide the bedsores she got from sword training, and always wears full clothes save for the arms and face, [[Training From Hell|because it's the only place she doesn't have scars from her trainings : torso, belly, hips, back, she bears scars on all of those]]. This is also why she adamantly refuses to go to the beach on summer.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Luke I Am Your Father]]: Subverted, Raizze and Wolfgario fully know they are daughter and father (and loving ones at that), it's the Asian (and thus the player) who doesn't know this until [[The Reveal]].}}

* [[In Series Nickname]]: [[The Rival|Linda]] calls her with the offensive "Nozaru" (wild monkey) nickname, referencing to her brown and somewhat messy hair. [[Volleying Insults|Hanna retorts with the nickname]] "[[Nouveau Riche]]", which is a [[Berserk Button]] for Linda.

* [[Expy]]: Of Mira Kagami from ''[[Tokimeki Memorial|Tokimeki Memorial 1]]'', oh so much. The hair color, [[Alpha Bitch|the haughty voice]] [[Well Excuse Me Princess|and attitude]], the [[Noblewomans Laugh]], {{spoiler|the [[Hidden Depths]]}}, they're all here.

* [[Noblewomans Laugh]]: A really distinctive one.

* [[Pimped Out Dress]]: [[Gem Encrusted|With jewels incrusted in them, no less.]]

* [[Expy]]: She's a VERY obvious one of Ayako Katagiri from ''[[Tokimeki Memorial|Tokimeki Memorial 1]]'', down to [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes|the fear of water]] and the love of sketching and painting.

* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes]]: She has a terrible fear of water, and unlike with [[Expy|her predecessor Ayako]], we get to know the reasons behind this fear : {{spoiler|when she was little, during a trip towards Edwards Island with her parents, she fell from the boat and nearly drowned. Her parents did nothing to save her, only shouting ; she was saved by sailors instead. This terrifying event, along with the distrust of her parents she gained, left her with this deep trauma. She'll overcome it to save the Asian if she's deeply in love with him when he fakes having a cramp, but she'll have herself a cramp, and if you decide to save her, when the Asian will lie her on the beach, she'll tell him in her delirium about this past event.}}

* [[Rose Haired Girl]]

* [[Token Mini Moe]]

* [[Love At First Punch]]: The way to get to know her is to [[What the Hell Hero|violently call her on her dangerous driving]] when she nearly runs over the Asian. She's so impressed to see him stand up against her, she'll befriend him instantly.

* [[Green Eyed Monster]]: {{spoiler|Near the end of the game, if Teddie has a high Love Gauge with the Asian, Noel will appear, claiming she's an old acquaintance of the Asian, triggering Teddie's jealousy ; Noel will use this to go in a "who has the most advantageous female attributes of the two" game : one of the two girls will be [[Lost Forever]] no matter what you do, and the one who'll be lost will be the one receiving the less answers in her favour. If Teddie wins, her affection with the Asian will go sky-high, pretty much guaranteeing getting her Ending if you don't forget to see her mandatory Event.}}

* [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes]]: She's deadly afraid of slugs. It's one of the rare instances where she shows another expression than laughing (in this case, fear and disgust), and if you pull the prank of putting a slug on her instead of shooing it away, she'll be so angry [[Lost Forever|she'll straight away cut all ties with you]].

* {{spoiler|[[Heroic Sacrifice]]: One of her Events, which occurs if she has a high Love Gauge with the Asian, involves her saving the Asian from a part of the Ruins crumbling by [[Diving Save|pushing him away from the falling rocks]] [[Taking the Bullet|and taking the full brunt of the collapse]]. After this, if you choose to run away like nothing happened, [[Only a Flesh Wound|Sue will emerge unscathed]] [[What the Hell Hero|and will angrily call the Asian on his ingratitude]] ; but if you choose to help her, the trope will fully apply, as she'll have suffered an ugly wound at the arm and lost a lot of blood ; when taking her to the hospital, she'll need a blood transfusion, but the hospital will be short of type A blood (her blood type). If the Asian is type A, you'll save her life, but she'll still be maimed enough to need to stay at the hospital for 3 full weeks before fully recovering, making her undatable for that period of time ; if he has a different blood type, [[Lost Forever|she'll die.]]}}

* [[Well Excuse Me Princess]]: Be prepared to take a ton of it when going her route.

* [[Burn Baby Burn]]: In the Event where {{spoiler|the 1st anniversary of Yang's death is celebrated, one of the best routes showing Claire finally beginning to take a first step towards accepting Yang's death and to move on, is when she decides, supported by the Asian, to ritually burn her husband's cape.}}

* [[May December Romance]]: {{spoiler|On both ends of it : the Asian, who's much younger than her, can score her ; if he doesn't, Messeni, who's much older than her, will marry her.}}

* [[For Science]]

The Asian's [[The Rival|rival]], third son of the powerful noble family Elites, and Sophia's fiance. A despicable man who thinks he's superior to anyone due to having the blood of his Holy Knight of a father flowing in his veins, and thus abides to the [[Hard Work Hardly Works]] and [[Screw the Rules I Have Money]] mottos.

However, while still firmly despicable, he also appears as an insecure and pitiful man. He's a [[Mommas Boy]] completely dominated by his mother, and is torn between [[Oedipus Complex|loving her]] and wanting to escape her grasp ; and even though he uses the wrong ways to show it, he's genuinely in love with Sophia and really wishes to make her happy. {{spoiler|As such, when looking at him from this light, [[Alas Poor Villain|you can't help but feel for him]] when Sophia pulls the [[Runaway Bride]] thing on him in her Happy Ending.}}

* [[Mommas Boy]]

* [[Screw the Rules I Have Connections]]: He's from one of the two most powerful noble families of the country.

* [[Screw the Rules I Have Money]]: In one of Sophia's Events {{spoiler|where she goes at an audition to get a place in the theatre band, he thinks he can help Sophia winning the audition by bribing the jury. Sophia does not approve, [[Screw the Money I Have Rules|as she wants to do it by her own strength]], and will be angry towards him and the Asian if the latter joins Johan in his idea.}}

* [[What Does She See in Him]]: {{spoiler|He calls on Sophia in the Event where he challenges the Asian for a duel for Sophia's hand, angrily asking her in what he's inferior to the Asian and why she prefers a mercenary foreigner over a noble from the powerful Elites family like him.}}

* [[Good Scars Evil Scars]]

* {{spoiler|[[Mentor Occupational Hazard]]: He's basically [[The Obi Wan|an Obi Wan.]]}}

* {{spoiler|[[May December Romance]]: With Claire if he scores her.}}

* {{spoiler|[[Green Eyed Monster]]: She slanders Claire ''hard'', calling her a grandma, when confiding her [[Love Hurts]] problems to the Asian at the Bar.}}

* [[Rose Haired Girl]]: Borderline towards red, but still.

* [[Grey and Gray Morality]]: {{spoiler|He may have a good [[Freudian Excuse]] for waging war against Dolphan, but in doing so, he doesn't hesitate sacrifing his men without telling them his true motives, even though he knows they're probably all going into a losing war : even an evil bastard such as Zeelbis [[What the Hell Hero|calls him on this]] upon accidentally learning about it, telling him he's commiting an unforgiveable sin (and this is why Zeelbis more or less deserts Valpha-Valaharian ; and Wolfgario himself admits he has committed this sin to Raizze when defeated by the Asian in his unmasked version battle, and tells her that he has to die to atone for this) ; and to make matters worse, he sends his daughter Raizze to safety, while letting young men of her age like Corkilneipha go to slaughter.}}

* [[Everythings Better With Spinning]]: [[Limit Break|His special attack.]]

* [[An Ice Person]] / [[Playing With Fire]]: [[Limit Break|Her special attack]] involves [[Instant Ice Just Add Cold|coating the player with a layer of ice]] via one of her magic-imbued swords, then to strike him with her other [[Flaming Sword]] [[For Massive Damage]].

* [[Dual Wielding]]

* [[Instant Ice Just Add Cold]]

* [[High Pressure Blood]]: Creates them with his special attack, and explains his nickname {{spoiler|along with his love of bombings}}.
