* [[Anti-Hero]]: A first in the franchise.
* [[Floral Theme Naming]]: The "Lobelia" and "Carlina" genuses.
* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: When the team is searching for Erica in episode 8, Lobelia brushes them off and goes to the bar. When Ogami runs into her there, it turns out she actually went there to see if anyone had seen Erica. It eventually becomes clear that her professed dislike for the rest of the team is just a facade to hide that she does actually care about them.
* [[Kikuko Inoue]]
* [[Moe Couplet]]: With Erica.
* [[Playing with Fire]]: She specializes in pyrokinesis.
* [[Tsundere]]: Presents an unpleasant facade to keep people from getting too close to her, but her soft side still pops up from time to time.

=== Glycine Bleumer ===
The only heir of the Bleumer family in Paris, she was the second member to be recruited into the Paris Assault Force after she met Erica in the city streets.

* [[Pretty in Mink]]: When she's dressed up.
* [[Rich Bitch]]: A French counterpart of Sumire, right down to the [[Hidden Heart of Gold]].
** Despite this, she's a slightly downplayed trope: while she might come off as quite haughty and prideful due her status, she's very serious about it, and doesn't use it as an excuse to be [[Jerk Ass|malicious or demeaning]] to others.
▲* [[Tsundere]]: Due to her pride.
=== Hanabi Kitaouji ===
The only daughter of Masamichi Kitaoji, a Japanese baron with ties to France, and a French mother. Hanabi was friends with Glycine when they started to attend boarding school together prior to her father's journey back to Japan.

* [[Lady of War]]: The most traditionally feminine member of the team, but no less badass for it.
* [[Shrinking Violet]]: Is incredibly shy.
* [[Yamato Nadeshiko]]: She's arguably more of one than any of the girls in the original, possibly because she spent most of her life in France, learning the way a Japanese woman is supposed to act largely from books.

She was the next girl to be recruited by Ogami into the ranks of the Paris Assault Force. After the death of the original "Circus De Europe" ringmaster, Coquelicot took over as the next ringmaster and performs there and at the Les Chattes Noires whenever they needed a magician to perform as her "official" cover.
* [[Floral Theme Naming]]: "Coquelicot" is the French word for corn poppies.
* [[Friend to All Living Things]]: The reason why she travels to Paris is to get scraps of food for the animals in "Circle De Europe".
* [[Stepford Smiler]]: Would rather smile than share any sad feelings she has.
* [[Token Mini-Moe]]: For the Paris Flower Division.
