=== Gain Bijou ===

Line 76:

* [[Rebellious Princess]]

* [[The Scrappy]]: [[Averted Trope|Averted!]] She managed to nimbly dodge this dreaded trope by being a wise and thoroughly likeable little girl.

* [[Shipper On Deck]]: Was absolutely ''delighted'' when {{spoiler|Gainer confessed to Sara in Episode 17}}.

* [[Shipper on Deck]]: Was absolutely ''delighted'' when {{spoiler|Gainer confessed to Sara in Episode 17}}.

* [[Wise Beyond Their Years]]

* [[The Woobie]]: I dare you to see her cry in Episode 7 and ''not'' feel sorry for her.

Line 86:

* [[Derek Stephen Prince]]

* [[Dogged Nice Guy]]: Poor guy is stuck in Sara's "friend zone". And he's probably there to stay.

* [[Expy]]: Of Kyao Nilau, a character of ''[[Heavy Metal L Gaim]]''.

* [[Expy]]: Of Kyao Nilau, a character of ''[[Heavy Metal L-Gaim]]''.

* [[Hotblooded Sideburns]]: Definetely not as bad as certain other characters featured in the trope but he does still have sharp sideburns on either side.

* [[Improbable Hairstyle]]: Not as bad as certain other characters featured in the trope but still improbable nonetheless.

Line 108:

* [[Otaku]]: A more well-adjusted version than most, though.

* [[The Stoic]]

* [[Strangled By the Red String]]: {{spoiler|With Adette.}}

* [[Strangled by the Red String]]: {{spoiler|With Adette.}}

* [[Suicide By Cop]]: When he falls under Kashmir's control later in the series, and ends up endangering the City Units, {{spoiler|he tries to convince Gainer to kill him, even by revealing that he was the one who killed his parents. However, it doesn't work, as Gainer opts for [[Taking a Third Option]]}}.

However, it doesn't work, as Gainer opts for [[Taking a Third Option]]}}.

* [[Tony Oliver]]

* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]: An heroic example - he gives priority to the Exodus over everything else. If that means sacrificing some people, or even himself, he won't hesitate - though he won't be proud of it.

Line 121:

* [[Berserk Button]]: "'''GAAAAAAIN!'''"

* [[Big Bad]]: Kind of...

* [[Big Brother Instinct]]: He only, well, almost caused [[The End of the World As We Know It]] for her.

* [[Big Brother Instinct]]: He only, well, almost caused [[The End of the World as We Know It]] for her.

* [[Blond Guys Are Evil]]

* [[Dangerously Genre Savvy]]: Watch him shoot down an [[Unhand Them, Villain!]] attempt in Episode 9...

Line 131:

* [[Kick the Dog]]

* [[Knight Templar Big Brother]]: Deconstructed. His [[Knight Templar]] attitude results in mass [[Disproportionate Retribution]] and chaos to everyone around him, ending in a [[Motive Decay]]. Additionally, he didn't even consult his sister about ''her'' opinion on the situation.

* [[Large Ham]]: At least in [[Super Robot Wars Z]], where his lines when attacking Gain, {{spoiler|[[Aquarion]], [[~~The Big O (Anime)|~~The Big O]], and the [[Turn a Gundam (Anime)|Turn a Gundam]]}} are presented quite loudly and dramatically, and during a quicksave skit, he {{spoiler|gets into a ham contest with another [[Takehito Koyasu]] voiced [[Large Ham]], [[Turn a Gundam (Anime)|Gym Ghingnham!]]}} (this tropers personal favorite skit). Was Asuham one in the show's proper canon? This troper can't remember.

* [[Hot-Blooded]]

* [[Jerk ~~With~~ a Heart of Gold]]

* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]

* [[Kill It ~~With~~ Fire]]: One of his Overman's weapons.

* [[Kill It with Fire]]: One of his Overman's weapons.

* [[Manly Tears]]: When Adette defends him from his ungrateful underlings, he melts into water works...

Line 177:

* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: A fan favourite since early episodes.

* [[Heel Face Turn]]: A pretty abstract one with little to no reason given and made up mostly of [[Contrived Coincidence]] even though it's spread over several episodes.

* [[Jerk ~~With~~ a Heart of Gold]]: Adette is bossy, arrogant and rude, but genuinely cares about her students and other people.

* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: Adette is bossy, arrogant and rude, but genuinely cares about her students and other people.

* [[Latex Space Suit]]

* [[The Mole]]: Tries to be this at first, but Gain sees through her act. And still gets a brief date with her...

* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: Her suit emphasizes her assets, to say the least. She tried to get Gainer to wear a similar one at one point.

* [[The Power of Love]]: {{spoiler|How Adette breaks Gauli free from his brainwashing}}.

* [[Strangled By the Red String]]: {{spoiler|With Gauli...well, it's hinted at ''once'' in the whole series ''in a gag'' before it's official}}

* [[Strangled by the Red String]]: {{spoiler|With Gauli...well, it's hinted at ''once'' in the whole series ''in a gag'' before it's official}}

* [[Pet the Dog]]: He adopted Cynthia and was like a father to her.

* [[What Happened to ~~The~~ Mouse?]]: His fate at the end of the series is not very clear. He's possibly been absorbed by the Overdevil, but no definite word is given.
