→St. Gloriana Girls Academy
Line 700:
* [[National Stereotypes]]: They have the British ones, including:
** [[Brits With Battleships]]: Well, there's no battleships to be found, but their school ship is named the ''Ark Royal'', and they use British tanks, such as the Churchill (75mm gun), the Crusader (40mm gun), and several Matilda IIs (40mm gun). The Churchill and Matildas are "infantry tanks," relatively slow-moving; the Crusader sacrifices armor to get a maximum road speed nearly twice that of a Matilda.
** [[Spot of Tea]]: St. Gloriana's students (that we meet) are all named after teas,<ref>Except for "Orange Pekoe", which is a (high) grade of tea, not a type.</ref> and enjoy drinking them, even in battle. They also present various teas as gifts to [[Worthy Opponent]]s. In fact, Darjeeling arranged a meeting to talk with Katyusha prior to the semi-finals ''because she likes their tea.'' (She also told them some information on Oarai and Miho, but it wasn't anything they didn't already know — the only reason that it was any news to Katyusha is that she hadn't been paying attention when Nonna told her about it earlier.)
* [[Only Known by Their Nickname]]: It is ... '''unlikely''' that a Japanese girl's parents named her "Darjeeling." Even a genuine English girl wouldn't be christened "Orange Pekoe."
* [[Theme Naming]]: Or Theme Nicknaming - all of the team members are names after varieties of black tea or herbal tea.
