R.O.D the TV: Difference between revisions

* [[Badass Bookworm]]: Pretty much all the protagonists except for Drake. Even Anita has a weird sort of [[Tsundere]] relationship with books.

* [[Badass Normal]]: Drake Anderson. Nenene's stubbornness and determination are also quite something:

* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: Yomiko is usually just about the sweetest, most forgiving person on the planet...but God help you if you manage to make her mad.

* [[Bifauxnen]]: Maggie

* [[Dramatic Wind]]

* [[Dude Looks Like a Lady]]: Junior. The long hair and strange choices of clothing don't help.

'''Junior''': "I'm... a boy..." }}

* [[Egopolis]]: Britain (or at least the British Library) really thinks too highly of themselves in this universe. So much so that they revert everything back to a 19-century version of the world they ruled, when the British Empire was at its peak of power.

* [[Genki Girl]]: Anita

* [[Gratuitous English]]: Anita's homeroom teacher seems to speak as much [[Gratuitous English]] as Japanese, but he is actually teaching English and asking the students to translate, so it is not gratuitous at all. How does he teach them English? He quotes ''[[The Godfather]].'' Students around the world would probably do better in their studies if their teachers [[An Offer You Can't Refuse|made them an offer they couldn't refuse...]] It becomes [[Gratuitous Japanese]] in the English dub, which is strangely out of place seeing how [[Redundant Department of Redundancy|a Japanese teacher is teaching Japanese to Japanese schoolchildren.]]

* [[Hannibal Lecture]]: {{spoiler|Joker}} gives one to Yomiko when they meet for the first time in the series. Nenene [[Shut UP, Hannibal|cuts him short]].

* [[Hot Librarian]] + [[Badass Bookworm]]: Yomiko. Her extreme love of books can get to be a very expensive habit (at one point, she even asks her boss for a cash advance so that she can purchase more books), but the British Library still regards her as [[Bunny Ears Lawyer|one of the best in her field]].

* [[Luke, I Am Your Father]]: {{spoiler|Yomiko reveals that Junior is Nancy's son (whom Yomiko had earlier told Nancy was dead)}}.

* [[Madness Mantra]]

A lot, a whole lot, and a lot more..." }}

* [[Mama Bear]]: {{spoiler|Nancy, after she regains her memories.}}

* [[Throw the Book At Them]]: Anita likes to do this.

* [[Title Drop]]: Kindasorta. Wendy's speech to Anita {{spoiler|after the British Library brainwashes her school.}}

* [[Trademark Favourite Food|Trademark Favourite Drink]]: Anita really likes drinking milk.

* [[Tokyo Is the Center of the Universe]]: Watered down somewhat, as London and Hong Kong also have fairly major roles in the story.
