Line 23:
** And then episode 5 gives us the most '' extreme slide''.
** A ''[[Running Gag|gigantic]]'' holographic space game.
* [[Born Lucky]]: Rio
* [[The Brute]]: King
** [[Book Dumb]]: He knows the alphabet up to Q and can count to 28.
** [[Idiots Cannot Catch Colds|Idiots Can't Catch Colds]]: His family never caught a cold for 300 years.
* [[Bunny Girl]]: Everywhere. It's a casino.
** As of the 6th episode, even ''Mint'' can wear one of those.
* [[But Not Too Foreign]]: Rina's father is apparently Japanese. {{spoiler|He's also Rio's father, acknowledged in the last episode where she's called "Rio Rollins-Tachibana".}}
* [[Carrying a Cake]]: Episode two ends with Ania bringing in a victory cake for Rio. Given Ania's nature, it was only a matter of time.
* [[Chainmail Bikini]]: Worn by most of the female main cast during the game of "Concentration Bomber".
* [[Chekhov's Gun]]: The fact that Choco is made in China becomes important later in the series.
* [[Chinese Girl]]: Yang-Yang & An-An. {{spoiler|Although An-An is really Choco, disguised as a girl by Yang-Yang}}.
* [[Cute Shotaro Boy]]: Jack
* [[Crippling Overspecialization]]: Also overlaps with [[What Kind of Lame Power Is Heart, Anyway?]]. Yang-Yang's magic can only be used on things made in China. This gives her a wide range of objects, but an obvious weakness.
Line 71:
* [[High-Class Glass]]: Mint's grandfather goes all out on the rich guy look, having a top hat, monocle, cane, three piece suit, the works.
* [[Hot Mom]]: {{spoiler|Risa Rollins.}}
* [[Hot Witch]]: Dana, who works as a magician and fortune teller at the Howard Resort, dresses like one.
* [[Hypocritical Humor]]: Ille and Elle remark on the oddity of the hacked Linda repeating everything she says twice, while half of Ille's dialogue is just her repeating whatever her sister says.
* [[Idiot Hair]]: Mint and Tom sort of.
Line 102:
** Three: Elvis
** Four: Linda. {{spoiler|The card was given to her by Cartia while Jack controlled Linda during the battle.}}
** Five:
** Six:
** Seven: Rio
Line 126:
* [[Single-Minded Twins]]: Ille and Elle Adams
** [[Sibling Yin-Yang]]: Elle is talkative while Ille is [[The Quiet One]].
* [[Sinister Silhouettes]]: {{spoiler|Risa Rollins}}
* [[Soft Water]]
* [[Spanner in the Works]]: Misery did not plan for Ania's clumsiness when she tried to take over the Howard Casino.
Line 136:
* [[Tarot Troubles]]: The show pulls the typical "the Death card was drawn" played-for-drama bit during a reading for Rio and Rina. Whether or not the Lovers card drawn at the end will be relevant in the next episode or not...
** {{spoiler|And later comes to fruition when Risa reveals her true plan.}}
* [[Token Mini-Moe]]: Mint, although she's generally exempt from the [[Fan Service]].
** Subverted in episode 11. She's in quite a skimpy warrior-esque outfit, including a notable shot that [[She's Got Legs|completely shows her legs, and they're quite... long.]]
* [[Too Dumb to Live]]: What sane poker player would throw away most of his hand when he was only one card away from a straight or a flush in hopes of getting three queens? Sure, it's ''possible'', but when you're fighting the title character and you're not even trying to cheat that's just asking to get beat down.
Line 157:
* [[White-Haired Pretty Girl]]: Rosa
* [[Xanatos Roulette]]: {{spoiler|Cartia's plan.}}
* [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair]]: [[Blue (video)|Blue]] for Elle and green for Ille and Linda.
* [[Zettai Ryouiki]]: Ania is a Grade A. Rina's is also pretty high-ranked.
