Line 10:
 
* [[Adorkable]]: In moments when he's genuinely excited about something, he expresses a child-like enthusiasm that is just too cute for words.
* [[Anti-Hero]] - the [[Sliding Scale of Anti-Heroes|loser type]], most of the time.
* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]] - Rarely -- ''very rarely'' -- shows signs of this. {{spoiler|In Volume 17, he stops Zoruru dead with a single [[Looming Silhouette of Rage|shadow-wreathed]] ''[[Death Glare|look]]'' and [[Compelling Voice|a stern order]]. Then he does the same thing to a Kiruru unit in Volume 20.}}
** He also kicks a lot of ass in the movies. Notable examples include: {{spoiler|him being turned into a dragon in the fourth movie and proceeding to kick his entire platoon's dragon asses. Note that when he transformed, Keroro, like the rest of his platoon, forgot all about his mission and who he was and while the audience were privy to the other platoon-turned-dragon members thoughts, we do not hear Keroro's at all.}}
Line 16:
* [[Explosive Overclocking]] - Occurs if he manages to get oversaturated with water, briefly unlocking the Keroro From Back Then before he's brutally [[Brought Down to Normal]] again.
* [[Improbable Weapon User]] - In many video games, he draws from his collection of toys and cleaning supplies to help him out--the vacuum is a particular favorite.
* [[Jerkass]]/[[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]] - Wavers back and forth.
* [[Man Child]]
* [[The Neidermeyer]]
Line 24:
* [[Weaksauce Weakness]] - [[Banana Peel|Banana peels]]. He's compelled to step and slip on them.
* [[Otaku]] - Of the Gundam variety but also obsesses over the Admiral Geroro manga, space bikes, and trains, surprisingly enough.
* [[Idiot Hero]] - Whenever he and his platoon are charged with saving Pekopon from other alien threats and not being the "threat" themselves.
 
=== Private Tamama ===
Line 43:
* [[Fartillery]]
* [[Feet of Clay]] - Gradually grows disenchanted with Keroro due to this, especially in the manga.
* [[Green-Eyed Monster]]
* [[Kawaiiko]] - Deliberately plays up his cute image.
* [[Love Makes You Crazy]]/[[Love Makes You Evil|Evil]]
* [[Ping-Pong Naivete]]
* [[The Nicknamer]] - Calls Momoka "Momochi", Natsumi "Natchi" and Fuyuki, "Fucchi".
* [[Not Allowed to Grow Up]] - Possibly [[Invoked Trope|Invoked]] when he sees that his childhood friend and fanboy Taruru has [[Plot-Relevant Age-Up|hit puberty]] ahead of him.
* [[Sweet Tooth]]
Line 67:
* [[Clingy Jealous Girl|Clingy Jealous Frog]] - Has his moments. In the manga, became so intensely jealous of Koyuki after she first arrived that he attempted to [[Murder the Hypotenuse]]. [[Lampshaded]] by Tamama's gloating thoughts about [[Not So Different|finally understanding the Corporal]].
* [[The Comically Serious]]
* [[Expressive Shirt|Expressive Hat]]: The skull on his hat.
* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]] - A massive one on his face.
* [[Gratuitous English]] - Sometimes his battle cries veer into this. Including, at one point: "[[Actor Allusion|This!]] [[300|Is!]] [[This Is Sparta|SPARTA!]]"
Line 82:
* [[Murder the Hypotenuse]] - In the manga, he attempted this on Koyuki right after her introduction.
* [[Perpetual Frowner]]
* [[Pet the Dog]] - Or cat, in this case. Mostly focused around his pet cat and Natsumi. However, he has his moments with Fuyuki, Keroro, and the rest of the platoon.
* [[Primal Fear]] - Terrified of ghosts.
* [[Stay in the Kitchen]] - Part of his tsun-tsun act in the manga involves him making comments along these lines to Natsumi.
Line 118:
* [[Signature Laugh]] - Kukuku...
* [[Spell My Name with an "S"]] - Kururu/Kululu. The English translation of the manga actually switched from Kururu to Kululu around Volume 10 or so, then switched back later on.
* [[Stalker with a Crush]] - ''Maybe'' towards Aki.
* [[Takehito Koyasu]]
* [[Token Evil Teammate]] - While they're technically all villains, he ''still'' fits.
* [[Transformation Ray]] - One of his favorite gadgets to build.
* [[Trickster Mentor]] - Certainly isn't above manipulating the others into self-improvement.
Line 198:
* [[Jerkass]]/[[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]] - Wavers between back and forth, although the former is her more common side.
* [[Knuckle-Cracking]]: When those knuckles start cracking, a beating is about to ensue on Keroro.
* [[Hidden Eyes]] - A sure sign of trouble brewing for Keroro.
* [[Powered Armor]] - Her Powered 723 suit.
* [[Not So Different]] - She can be just as arrogant, self-absorbed and overconfident as Keroro at times, which is probably why they get along well.
Line 246:
* [[Split Personality]]
* [[Spoiled Sweet]] - Her 'good' side.
* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]] - "Sweet Momoka" is the girly-girl, while "Dark Momoka" is the tomboy.
* [[Waif Fu]]
* [[Yandere]]
Line 371:
* [[Aloof Big Brother]]
* [[Big Brother Mentor]] - This is more obvious in the manga, where he's introduced long ''before'' the [[Wham! Episode|Wham Episodes]], and is clearly shown before and afterwards to be very fond of his baby brother, despite Giroro's [[Green-Eyed Monster|seething jealousy]].
* [[The Chessmaster]] - {{spoiler|May have been subtly manipulating the entire battle to make the Keroro Platoon look good. More obvious in the manga, where he explicitly spares Kururu's life and sends him to take on Tororo, which turns the tide of battle.}}
* [[Cold Sniper]] - More in the anime than in the manga; thank you, [[Flanderization]].
* [[The Comically Serious]]
Line 497:
* [[Blob Monster]] - The more intelligent sort.
* [[Body Horror]] - Can turn others into living puddles of flesh.
* [[Making a Splash]] - Giruru's attack style. You'd be amazed how good of a fighter a viscus blob of fluid is.
* [[Names to Know in Anime]] - [[Kunihiko Yasui]]
* [[Sibling Yin-Yang]] - {{spoiler|With his younger brother, Dokuku.}}
Line 509:
* [[Red Right Hand]] - His scythe-arm.
* [[Talking to Himself]] - Shares [[Takeshi Kusao|his seiyuu]] with Dororo.
* [[The Unintelligible]] - He can only speak by saying his name, much like a [[Pokémon-Speak|Pokemon]]. However, his brother seems to understand him just fine.
 
=== Kagege ===
Line 515:
The assassin of the Shurara Corps, an older tadpole who can manipulate shadows.
 
* [[Living Shadow]] - Kagege has the power to bring people's shadows to life and make them attack their owners.
* [[Power Glows]] - And so does Kagege. Constantly.
* [[Scarf of Asskicking]]
Line 535:
* [[Eye Beams]]
* [[Extra Eyes]]
* [[Faceless Eye]] - When he's in his invisible mode, he is sometimes only seen as one of his many eyes.
* [[Invisibility]]
* [[Kick the Dog]]
Line 547:
 
* [[Enemy Scan]]
* [[Interplay of Sex and Violence]] - When Dororo delivers the final blow on Robobo, he seems to have a random orgasm before exploding.
* [[Killer Robot]]
 
Line 576:
Keroro's mother who first appeared in the KeroZero short shown before the 4th Movie. She's very loving toward her son like a good mother, but she also seems to have a tricky side to her.
 
* [[Amazingly Embarrassing Parents|Amazingly Embarrassing Parent]] - She just loves to go around and talk about how wonderful her son is while offering sweets. She does this to ''everyone'', much to Keroro's chagrin.
* [[Body Snatcher]] - Although Natsumi was the one who had the idea of switching bodies with her, with the consent of both, afterwards she just disappeared with Natsumi's body, going to sight see Pekopon and even on a date with Giroro (Even though he knew it was Keroro's mother) while Natsumi in her body got dragged to another city by Keroro's father, who didn't believe any switch had happened.
* [[Doting Parent]]
* [[Generation Xerox]] - Her son definitely got her looks.
* [[Mrs. Robinson]] - She actually went into this on ''Giroro''.
* [[Shout-Out]] - Her design is very reminiscent of the mother in [[Atashinchi]], who was voiced by [[Kumiko Watanabe]], Keroro's voice actor.
 
=== Giroro-papa ===
Line 598:
* [[Big Fancy House]]
* [[Doting Parent]]
* [[Generation Xerox]]
* [[Ill Girl]] - Wears a surgical mask like Zeroro.
* [[Shrinking Violet]]
Line 612:
* [[Cheerful Child]]
* [[Genki Girl]]
* [[Kansai Regional Accent]]
* [[Love Freak]]
* [[The Ojou]] - Her father's incredibly rich.
Line 643:
Leader of the X1 assassin troop on Keron, and Zeroro's trainer in the art of killing. Cold and merciless and wanted in several galaxies, it only makes sense that he popped up on Pekopon...
 
* [[Artificial Limbs]] - It almost seems like this is a requirement for spooky assassin-types.
* [[Drill Sergeant Nasty]]/[[Sadist Teacher]] - Jirara trains his underlings by making them constantly fight each other nearly to the death. If you die, you were a bad student anyways.
** However, {{spoiler|a [[Flash Back]] in Volume 17 of the manga reveals that he deliberately chose a [[Lighter and Softer]] alternative to making Zeroro a full-fledged assassin, ''despite'' acknowledging that Zeroro had excelled in his training. When his pupil begged for an explanation, Jirara tells him flat-out that the assassin's path is "darker than you can even imagine".}}
Line 687:
 
=== Kiruru ===
A sort of ancient Keronian super weapon that feeds off of negative emotions to gain strength and destroy planets. While not necessarily movie exclusive, they're a very big element of the first and third movies, and become a victim of the [[Worf Effect]] in the second. In the first movie, Keroro and Fuyuki accidentally unleash one on Tokyo.
 
* [[Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever]]
Line 696:
 
=== Mirara ===
An ancient Keronian weapons specialist that sealed away the first Kiruru, but got stuck in the proverbial can with him as well. She works off of positive emotions, and is able to turn into a key, the only thing that can reseal the Kiruru and save the world.
 
* [[Emergency Transformation]] - Granted, she couldn't do it until the characters actually got along again.
* [[Exposition Fairy]] - To Keroro and Fuyuki.
* [[Stop Helping Me!]] - Pointing out the fact that Keroro made a doomsday device in front of the Hinatas at a time like this isn't really helping your cause, Mirara.
 
=== Meru ===
A Maronian living at the bottom of the ocean who was feeling lonely one day and as a result, abducted Natsumi to be his princess. In the end, all he wanted was a mother figure rather than a princess.
 
* [[Bratty Half-Pint]]
Line 762:
* [[Battle Butler]]
* {{spoiler|[[Captain Ersatz]]: Like Paul channeling [[Street Fighter|Ken Masters]], Pierre turns into E Honda.}}
* [[Homage]]: In line with the ''[[Turn aA Gundam (Anime)|Turn a Gundam]]'' references in the 4th movie, Pierre has a White Doll moustache.
