Line 105:
[[File:sp_kim_7097.png|frame|'''Kim Pine'''<br />Age: 24 years old<br />[[Little Miss Snarker|Will eat your soul]]]]
 
Drummer of the band Sex Bob-ombOmb. An ex-girlfriend of Scott's, and his close friend since their high school days. She is usually the lone voice of reason in all the madness going around her. Since said voice of reason usually gets ignored, it doesn't matter all that much.
 
Years before Scott Pilgrim was created, Bryan Lee O'Malley used the name "Kim Pine" for a very different (or at least much less defined) character in his short-lived comic strip "Style".
Line 203:
* [[Promoted to Love Interest]]: To {{spoiler|Kim Pine}} in the game.
** And to Scott in the film, where she's portrayed as a serious love interest instead of a joke like in the comics.
* [[Running Gag]]: (Knives Chau: 17 years old.)
* [[Shiny Midnight Black]]: Her hair colourcolor.
* [[Smitten Teenage Girl]]
* [[Stalker with a Crush]]
Line 217:
[[File:Young_Neil_5319.png|frame|'''Young Neil'''<br />[[Older Than They Look|Age: Not really young]]<br />Stephen's Roommate]]
 
Stephen Stills' roommate and Sex Bob-ombOmb's #1 (and only) fan/roadie. He's very quiet and is mostly an observer/commentator on the events of the story. After Scott dumps her, Knives briefly dates Neil because he looks similar to Scott, but they later break up.
-----
* [[Alliterative Name]]: His full name is Neil Nordegraf.
Line 226:
* [[My Name Is Not Durwood]]: He never objected much to it, but when he is introduced simply as Neil, with the "young" part dropped, it's the best day of his life.
* [[Older Than They Look]]: Supposed to be 20, but looks about as young as Knives.
* [[Replacement Goldfish]]: Knives throws herself at him on the rebound from Scott because he looks more-or-less just like him. They break up rather quickly once Knives realisesrealizes he's about as far from Scott as you can get personality-wise.
* [[Took a Level in Jerkass]]
* [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?]]: Volume 6: The greatest day of Young Neil's life was when Scott simply called him "Neil". ...Kinda sad, isn't it?
Line 368:
[[File:250px-Roxy_1130.png|frame|'''Roxanne Richter'''<br />Ramona's 4th Evil Ex-Boyfriend<br />{{spoiler|[[Smurfette Principle|Gender: Female]]]]}}
 
The fourth Evil Ex-Boyfriend (actually a girl). She was Ramona's college roomateroommate and dated Ramona as part of a bi-curious "sexy phase" Ramona was going through at the time. She was Ramona's ninja mentor and is actually quite friendly with her despite being a member of the League.
-----
* [[Alliterative Name]]
Line 415:
* [[Smug Snake]]: They ''are'' competent, but they still have this kind of demeanor.
* [[Vacuum Hurricane Kick]]
* [[The Voiceless]]: They become this in the film (losing their backstory and personalities entirely in the process) because their actors didn't speak English. So the whole robot theme is replaced with "amp to amp battle" where their holographic twin dragons fight against Sex Bob-ombOmb's holographic giant ogre. Whether this is an improvement or not depends on your point of view, but at the very least it's [[Crowning Music of Awesome]].
** It helps that the amp battle was based on the original draft of Volume 5 that the filmmakers were given.
* [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]]: Kyle
Line 422:
[[File:Gideon_4258.png|frame|'''Gideon Gordon Graves'''<br />Ramona's 7th Evil Ex-Boyfriend<br />[[Complete Monster|Occupation: Asshole]]]]
 
Seventh and final Evil Ex and leader of the League of Evil Exes. Gideon is a 30-something entertainment mogul from New York and Ramona was once both his girlfriend and [[The Muse|his muse]]. {{spoiler|He formed the League after he posted a drunken rant on craigslistCraigslist, and only wants Ramona back to complete his collection of his seven former girlfriends--all of whom have been stored in cryogenic freezing capsules}}. [[Department of Redundancy Department|He is a total asshole]].
-----
* [[Affably Evil]]: He refers to Scott as buddy, and compliments him on his shirt. Also, when {{spoiler|he kills Scott}}, he buys everyone a drink.
Line 539:
** [[Teleport Spam]]
* [[The Vamp]]: A short scene in the comic shows her from Todd's P.O.V seducing him to cheat on Envy.
* [[The Voiceless]]: Just like the Katayanagi twins, Lynette's character is practically excised from the film in order to focus on the Scott-Ramona-Todd-Envy [[Love Dodecahedron]]. She's there in the background, but she gets no lines and her defining moment in the comic (punching the highlights out of Knives' hair) is transferedtransferred over to Todd just to up his already sky-high douchebag factor. Once the actual fighting starts she's never seen again.
 
== The Negascott ==
Line 556:
[[File:171px-SP2_joseph_id_1135.png|frame|'''Joseph'''<br />[[Satellite Character|Kim's Roommate]]<br />Status: Professional Dillhole]]
 
One of Kim's roommates when she moves into a new apartment. Quiet and not much of a talker, but is pretty insulting and abrasive when he does talk. Stephen notices he has a home music studio and coaxes Joseph into letting Sex Bob-ombOmb use it to make a album. {{spoiler|Turns out the real reason was because he found Stephen attractive. By Vol 6 the two are officially a couple.}}
-----
* {{spoiler|[[Closet Key]]: For Stephen. Slowly becomes obvious over the course of the series. Joseph himself is openly gay.}}
