→‎top: clean up
(→‎top: clean up)
Line 57:
* [[Date Crepe]]: Cinque and Éclair don't help their "not on a date" deniability in episode 11 by having crepes.
* [[Date Peepers]]: In episode 11, Cinque and Eclair weren't really on a date, but try telling that to Yukikaze and Ricotta.
* [[Defeat by Modesty]]: Double-subverted -- aftersubverted—after a Cinque/Eclair combo blows off her outer clothing, Leonmichelle simply shrugs it off. Given the nature of the war games, this may have happened to her before. She still however surrenders, but not out of any embarrassment on her part.
* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]
{{quote|'''Leonmichelle (to Cinque):''' "I'll invade you thoroughly next time!"}}
Line 63:
* [[Dynamic Entry]]: HERO KIIIIICK!
** Eclair does this to Cinque {{spoiler|in Episode 4 after he inadvertently accepts a declaration of war.}} [[In Soviet Russia, Trope Mocks You|In Biscotti]], [[Kick the Dog|dog kicks you]].
* [[Edible Theme Naming]]: [[wikipedia:Biscotti|Biscotti]], [[wikipedia:%C3%89clairÉclair (pastry)|Eclair]], [[wikipedia:Ricotta|Ricotta]], [[wikipedia:Galette|Galette]], [[wikipedia:Panettone|Panettone]]... as if the show couldn't be any more sweet.
** Mixed with [[Gratuitous French]] and [[Colorful Theme Naming]]: Framboise (raspberry), Jaune (yellow) [[wikipedia:Clafoutis|Clafoutis]], [[wikipedia:Brioche|Brioche]] d'Arquien, Vert (green) [[wikipedia:Far Breton|Far Breton]]...
*** [[Bilingual Bonus|Making this show incredibly hilarious to anyone who can speak French, Italian, or both]]; since it always seems like everyone is talking about food all the time.
* [[Expy]]: Millefiore, of Caro Lu Rushe of ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS]]'', also from Seven Arcs. She's pink all over, she's a wizard, and she [http://fabien.li/tvtropes/Dog%20Days%20-%2001v2%2009.37.jpg sports a hooded cloak]. [http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/890001 Some fan art ran away with this.]
** Her [http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb196/danilodsouza/Millefiore.jpg armored form] is basically a pink version of [[media:FateZero_TVTropes_6779FateZero TVTropes 6779.jpg|Saber]] from [[Fate/stay night]].
* [[Eyes Always Shut]]: Rizel, {{spoiler|except for the ending credits in the last episode.}}
* [[Eyes of Gold]]: Leonmichelle and Gaul.
* [[Failure Knight]]: Less drastic than most, but a lot of what drives Cinque was placing second in the Ultimate Athletics competition and "disappointing" friends and family.
* [[Fantastic Arousal]]: [[media:tropes_dog_days_3819tropes dog days 3819.jpg|Comes standard with being part canine]].
* [[Fastball Special]]: Eclair when she kicks Cinque into Leonmichelle.
* [[Fridge Brilliance]]: Leonmichelle participating at the head of the army herself makes more sense when you consider that she's a lioness.
Line 89:
* [[Hachimaki]]: Cinque and Emilio.
* [[Hair of Gold]]: Cinque, Yukikaze and Vert.
* [[Hero of Another Story]]: Brioche and Yukikaze are samurai/ninja hunters of "abominations" -- monsters—monsters and demons -- suchdemons—such that Fronaldo barely hears of them; they also do not talk about what they do.
** {{spoiler|Yukikaze is also a [[God in Human Form|minor deity. Brioche is "mortal but lives longer than others" for undisclosed reasons]]}} as revealed in episode 12.
* [[Hidden Buxom]]: {{spoiler|Millefiore.}}
Line 166:
* [[Shipper on Deck]]: Yukikaze and Ricotta for Cinque and Eclair
** Heck, even Eclair's brother.
* [[Ship Tease]]: There's a fair amount of romantic undertones between Cinque and Millefiore -- heroMillefiore—hero and summoner -- Shikusummoner—Shiku and Eclair -- [[Back-to-Back Badasses]]/borderline [[Battle Couple]] -- and—and Cinque and Becky -- theBecky—the [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]] -- as—as well as some Millefi/Leo and Millefi/Eclair [[Les Yay]]. But it seems as though Cinque and Millefi are now the [[Official Couple]].
* [[Shout-Out]]: Milhi's armor in episode 9 looks a lot like [[Fate/stay night|Saber's]] armor.
** At the end of the 13th synopsis video, Cinque quotes a lyric from [[Nanoha the Movie First|PHANTOM MINDS]].
Line 179:
* [[Sword Beam]]: Eclair uses these several times; Brioche uses this occasionally.
* [[Tall, Dark and Bishoujo]]: Leonmichelle only with [[White-Haired Pretty Girl|white Hair]] and Brioche ([[Youko Hikasa|once]] [[Pigeonholed Voice Actor|again]]) with brown hair.
* [[Talking Is a Free Action]]: Subverted -- everyoneSubverted—everyone who attempts to introduce themselves gets attacked mid-sentence and they'll [[Lampshade Hanging|mention]] it too.
** Yukikaze completes a particularly long introduction one time {{spoiler|when she's preparing her sealing spell against the demon sword.}}
* [[Thanks for the Mammary]]: Cinque accidentally grabs Eclair's chest when she has him pinned down.
Line 200:
* [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]]: {{spoiler|Leonmichelle's harsh, militaristic international policy is part of a gambit to avert the prophesied death of her childhood friend Milhiore, as well as her Hero, Cinque.}}
* [[Wham! Episode]]: The ending of Episode 6 -- {{spoiler|Cinque and Millefiore are doomed to die in 30 days, and nothing can change this. [[Screw Destiny|Not if Leonmichelle has anything to say about it, though.]]}}
* [[White and Grey Morality]]: In any other show, warmongering [[The Empire|Galette]] would be pretty clearly evil, but given that "warmongering", in this case, means "healthily appreciative of sporting activities", we've just got a bunch of friendly, polite [[Worthy Opponent|Worthy Opponents]]s instead.
** If anything it's probably a rare example of white and white morality, if there was such a trope.
* [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]]: Prince Gaul.
