''[http://www.electric-manga.com/ Kagerou]'' is an ongoing [[Web Comic]] about an androgynous young man who is [[Trapped in Another World|transported to a fantastical]] [[Alternate Universe]], where he, as the [[Chosen One]], teams up with the rest of the [[Five
----
Line 40:
* [[Creepy Doll]]: Kuroyama's demons.
* [[Creepy Monotone]]: According to [[Word of God]], Kano's regular voice is an example of this.
* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]: When Kano gets angry, shit gets real. Of course, this happens VERY rarely, and Kano tends to get interrupted (read: stabbed) before he can do any real damage.
* [[Crowbar Combatant]]: {{spoiler|Kano, when he's beating Red.}}
* [[Cute Bruiser]]: Cho may barely hit 5 feet, but she will happily kick your ass from here to Sunday.
* [[Dark
* [[Dead Little Sister]]: {{spoiler|Nadia, who was about a year younger than Kano}}.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Kano does it best, when he's not being [[Snark Bait]].
Line 56:
* [[Enemy Within]]: Red fits this trope pretty much to a T.
* [[Enemy Without]]: {{spoiler|Red/James}} also manifests this trope elegantly when he is able to manifest a more or less physical form after {{spoiler|Tcaolin "fed him some souls".}}
* [[
* [[
* [[The Exile]]: Formerly Cho, who caused too much trouble among the Old Ones and was kicked out, residing in the slums of Ir. Currently the nick, more or less self-inflicted, and also resulting in a new residence in the gutter.
* [[Eyeless Face]]: Dee. She used to have eyes, but apparently misplaced them somewhere.
Line 66:
* [[Femme Fatalons]]: Dee's fingernails, which she also paints with [[Poisoned Weapons|poisoned polish]]. Unfortunately for Kano she [[The Ditz|forgot the second part]] and wound up poisoning him by accident (she meant to hit him, but not kill him) but luckily she keeps an antidote on her.
* [[Fingore]]: When Kano isn't busy hallucinating that there are maggots in his veins or the like, he often feels his fingers burning, sometimes indicating unrest in the [[Mental World|Zones]]. May or may not be related to why he tried to chop his left hand off, but hey, at least he missed and only got two fingers! His ring and pinkie finger don't work too well, incidentally.
* [[Five
* [[Floating Continent]]: The fae's continent.
* [[Foreshadowing]]: Quite frequently.
Line 144:
* [[Mysterious Watcher|Mysterious Pursuer]]: Upon his introduction the nick was a shadowy, darting silhouette pursuing the heroes' pursuit, taking [[Mysterious Employer|mysterious orders.]]
* [[Neural Implanting]]: Kano. Once, accidentally, to Heyoka. Later [[The Voiceless|Dark]], the [[Split Personality|alter]] who can [[How Do I Shot Web|actually control]] Kano's powers, grants Cho a [[Sarcasm Mode|lovely]] [http://www.electric-manga.com/49/23.html image] from Kano's childhood. This is apparently how he says hi.
* [[Nightmare Fuel
* [[No Holds Barred Beatdown]]: {{spoiler|Kano's [[Unstoppable Rage]] moment, which manages to instill a strange mixture of triumph and pure horror in readers.}}
* [[No Name Given]]: The nick, Red {{spoiler|(at first)}}, and a few others.
Line 150:
{{quote| '''Tcaolin:''' Little Dee, playing the madwoman and laughing at everyone from behind her veil.}}
* [[Oh Crap]]: [http://www.electric-manga.com/48/18.html Yeah.] Kano does this supremely well.
* [[One
* [[Only Known By Their Nickname]]: Red, Kid, and a few others.
* [[Only the Chosen May Wield]]: Kano has to go to Ir to retrieve the Blade from a statue. There is some conflict over who should've drawn it, though, as the nick shows up claiming to the title of Champion.
Line 175:
* [[Slasher Smile]]: Red sports one [http://www.electric-manga.com/05/10.html every once in a while], but then who else were you expecting to? Dark's vacant close-lipped grin is too creepy to be this. Yeah.
* [[Speech Bubbles]]: While everyone sticks to the same font in bubbles, their font color changes. Quite a few characters who communicate without speech bubbles (Dark comes to mind) have rather creepier fonts. This is often one of the only ways you can tell who's talking, and who's in control of Kano's body.
* [[Spell My Name With an "S"]]: Not even the author is sure if it's spelled Gray World or Grey World.
* [[Spirit Advisor]]: In a thoroughly disturbing example, Red. [[Inverted Trope|Inverted]] in that while only Kano can perceive him, Kano [[Selective Obliviousness|can't]] ''[[Selective Obliviousness|actually]]'' perceive him.
* [[Splash of Color]]: Gray World is monochromatic save a few noteworthy features. In the first chapters, Kano takes on its palette as he walks through it, but his [[Speech Bubbles|text]] is green and there are vibrant colors in other objects not from the World such as Tonbo and her spirit animal, and there are sometimes hints of green in [[Green Eyes|Kano's eyes]]. In his second visit, people not from Gray World have color, and the landscape is largely gray with muted color throughout, especially on points of interest.
* [[Split Personality]]: The premise of the series centers around this. The main character has quite a few folk living in his head at this point. It's taken quite seriously, as the author is rather a crazy person himself, and VERY knowledgeable about DID.
* [[Split Personality Takeover]]: Red seems quite intent on doing this to Kano.
* [[Star
** {{spoiler|They don't look ''that'' star-crossed as of chapter 38}}.
** {{spoiler|And by that we mean they mate like rabbits.}}
Line 186:
* [[Stripperiffic]]: Cho, who usually claims skimpy clothes are better for fighting in... but does eventually admit she wears it just because she can. Her half-sister Moko also [http://www.electric-manga.com/29/15.html mocks her for it].
* [[Summon Everyman Hero]]: The premise is a deconstruction of this trope. Not only is Kano a ''breathtakingly'' screwed-up hero, the summoning process itself has been used for a long time to enable a deeply unpleasant sacrifice.
* [[Super
* [[Surreal Horror]]: Expect to say "What the hell is happening and ''why is it so creepy?''" a lot. The swarms of shadowy dragonflies are particularly memorable in this regard.
* [[Surrounded By Idiots]]: Cho isn't super cagey about expressing her exasperation with the team she's been saddled with.
Line 205:
'''[[The Stoic|Starless]]:''' {{color|#5E5A80|Indeed.}}<br />
'''Kano:''' {{color|#348017|...I got better.}} }}
* [[The Un
* [[Unstoppable Rage]]: {{spoiler|Kano, when Red attempts to rape Fuuka.}}
* [[Verbal Tic]]: Kano has used "we" interchangeably with "I" most of his life, as well as other plural conventions when referring to himself. (He doesn't notice, because he's crazy.) Cho, who reacts to this with some condescension, has speech including hints of Middle English — Ye, aye, and the like.
