----
Line 10:
{{quote| Voiced by: [[Soichiro Hoshi]]}}
The protagonist of ''[[Muv
* [[The Beard]]: {{spoiler|During Ayamine's route she asks him to be her fake boyfriend because she's avoiding Sagiri. She mentions that it doesn't have to be fake at the same time but he doesn't take it seriously.}}
* [[Clueless Chick Magnet]]
* [[Hot-Blooded]]
* [[Jerk
* [[Ordinary High School Student]]
Line 39:
* [[Big Breasts, Big Deal]]: Type III.
* [[Born in
* [[Expy]]/[[Captain Ersatz]]: According to [[Word of God]], She has the hairstyle of [[Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory|a certain nuke-equipped Gundam]], with a personality modeled on that of Lafiel from ''[[Banner of the Stars]]''.
* {{spoiler|[[Forgotten Childhood Friend]]}}
* [[Image Song]]: ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUIJTSrYfFo -sion-]'' ("The Sound of Purple"). Also serves as the OP of all-ages ''Unlimited''.
Line 55:
* [[Animal Motif]]: Cats. She even wears a cat tail and a bell along with having her hair look like cat ears.
* [[The Archer]]
* [[Heir to
* [[Third Person Person]]: Lapses into this during emotional moments.
Line 109:
* [[Image Song]]: ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIFVavn9eA8 Calling]'', which serves double duty as the ED of ''Muv-Luv Alternative Chronicles'' sidestories.
* [[In-Series Nickname]]: "Mad Dog" in both worlds, though the reason differs: In ''Extra'' it's due to her insatiable... "appetite" (especially when drunk).
* [[Sensei
* [[Teacher-Student Romance]]: Yuuko teases her endlessly about Shirogane especially when they're both present, though Shirogane doesn't take it seriously. In ''Extra,'' she has a very short miniroute, but it has little to do with romance since they're both very drunk.
Line 118:
* [[Bunny Ears Lawyer]]: She has a... unique idea of proper attire for a school teacher and is constantly messing with both students and her best friend, Marimo.
* [[Cosplay Otaku Girl]]: She likes forcing Marimo into various costumes, such as [[Darkstalkers
* [[Ditzy Genius]]
* [[Drives Like Crazy]]: Considers red lights a suggestion and attempts to drag race Takahashi's limousine
* [[Heroic Comedic Sociopath]]: Has more than a streak of this in ''Extra'', if the cavalier notions of nearly running over Sumika in the beginning are any indication.
* [[Shipper
* [[Stripperiffic]]: As a teacher, she wears a top that leaves her entire midriff exposed and is basically a fishnet covering for her breasts. She gets away with this because everyone is a little scared of her.
Line 204:
* [[Badass Princess]]: Sort of. She's related to the Shogun, though the degree of relation is unclear.
* [[Born in
* [[Image Song]]: ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUIJTSrYfFo -sion-]'' ("The Sound of Purple"). Also serves as the OP of all-ages ''Unlimited''.
* [[Keigo]]
* [[Knight in Shining Armor]]: She believes that the law exists to protect the freedom of the citizens, and gets into several arguments with Takeru about freedom and preserving life.
* [[Leitmotif]]: The eponymous ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u9fvnSkSC90 Meiya]''.
* [[Making Love in All
=== Miki Tamase ===
Line 235:
As opposed to the ambiguously gendered Mikoto of ''Extra'', Mikoto is definitely a girl in ''Unlimited''. She is largely as scatterbrained as ever, but she's quite hurt when Takeru mistakes her for a boy at first.
* [[A
* [[Attention Deficit Ooh Shiny]]
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Boy or girl, you can't deny that Mikoto is very odd.
Line 268:
* [[Image Song]]: ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIFVavn9eA8 Calling]'', which serves double duty as the ED of ''Muv-Luv Alternative Chronicles'' sidestories.
* [[Sensei
* [[Sergeant Rock]]: She constantly reminds Takeru and his squadmates of many important things.
Line 324:
* [[New Transfer Student]]: Just like in ''Unlimited''. However, with his skills this time around they seem to think he’s actually overqualified instead of just some rookie.
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: Not once, but ''twice.'' {{spoiler|The first instance is when he attempts to change the timeline to stop Alternative V from occurring, which unknowingly caused the coup d'etat to happen, an event that claimed the lives of Sakaki's father and Ayamine's possible lover, among many others. And the second is when Takeru flees back to the ''Extra'' timeline, bringing the darkness of the ''Alternative'' timeline with him.}}
* [[No Yay]]: [[In
* [[Placebo Effect]]: {{spoiler|Isumi orders him to take a second round of hypnotherapy after he returns from the PTSD arc, but since he goes willingly she merely has it set up so he thinks he got the therapy. During his next battle, he still acts as though he had the therapy.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Ret-Gone]]: After Sumika, who had been sustaining his existence, dies he soon ceases to exist. Due to his nature as a quantum causality phenomenon he is wiped from the memories of everyone. The epilogue has him back in an altered version of Extra where he gets tearful at the sight of his old squadmates who had previously died. Interestingly, Kasumi is in this world now and appears to be familiar with the events of ''Alternative''.}}
Line 338:
* {{spoiler|[[And I Must Scream]]: The only reason she didn't go ''completely'' insane and simply die from stress while a brain was the desire to see Takeru and the mental stimulation received from Kasumi. Even then she's pretty screwed up for awhile after getting a new body.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Brain In
* {{spoiler|[[Clingy Jealous Girl]]: We learn near the end of ''Alternative'' just how clingy and jealous she can be in her subconsciousness, though there's little she could have done about it. After she's returned to mental stability, she does what she can to end Takeru's status as a causality conductor.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Damaged Soul]]: When brought [[Back From the Dead]] as the 00 Unit, this is what appears to be happening. It's not because of the ''process'', though, but what happened before that. Also, she gets better.}}
Line 346:
* {{spoiler|[[Patient Childhood Love Interest]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Psychic Powers]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Rape
* {{spoiler|[[Red Headed Heroine]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Robot Girl]]: She's Sumika with her brain uploaded into a quantum computer and given an artificial body that mimics all aspects of the human body, putting her quite close to [[Artificial Human]] territory.}}
Line 358:
* [[Badass Princess]]: Still related to the Shogun. {{spoiler|She’s actually the twin sister of the Shogun, who is dead in the world of ''Extra''.}}
* [[Born in
* {{spoiler|[[Dying Declaration of Love]]}}
* [[Friend Zone]]: {{spoiler|The plot requires Takeru to be in love with Unit 00/Sumika, but he tells Meiya that she's his closest friend, his "precious one", and trusts her more than anyone. She's clearly unhappy but hides it well enough from Takeru.}}
Line 398:
In ''Unlimited'', Mikoto was the token member of the squad with a normal family. {{spoiler|However, Alternative reveals that her father is the head of the Imperial intelligence agency.}} Like the other girls, after a certain event she begins to work on her flaws, which in this case would be her lack of attention to what's going on around her.
* [[A
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: Boy or girl, you can't deny that Mikoto is very odd. {{spoiler|Takes after her old man in that.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Family-Unfriendly Death]]: She’s electrocuted when she manages to destroy the BETA brain by stabbing it. Judging by her screams, it was extremely painful. Judging by her face being obscured when we see inside the cockpit, it was extremely gruesome.}}
Line 432:
* [[Necessarily Evil]]: Take her extra self, drop a lot of the comedy and make her highly manipulative and this is what you get in ''Alternative'', to the point that Takeru is somewhat horrified by her. {{spoiler|Her ''Extra'' self also appears appalled at how manipulative and cruel she can be.}} The story and Takeru largely agree that her rather manipulative behavior and disregard for sacrifices is necessary, {{spoiler|and she gives Takeru the opportunity the opportunity to shoot her twice. The first time is if he feels her behavior is unforgivable and the second time is after everything is all over.}}
* [[Pet the Dog]]: Opposite of [[Kick the Dog]], later events in the story {{spoiler|such as reassuring Isumi that her sister is okay before Isumi dies}}, {{spoiler|the [[Dead Person Conversation]] moment above}} and {{spoiler|comforting Takeru before he vanishes}} serve no purpose for her goals and took both effort and influence on her part.
* [[Shipper
* {{spoiler|[[Strike Me Down
=== Marimo Jinguuji ===
Line 445:
** {{spoiler|[[Death Seeker]]: Sought to die in combat as atonement for being the sole survivor of her squadron on their very first mission. Ironically she kept on surviving battles, while losing comrades, again and again. She finally joins them in ''The Unforgiven''.}}
** {{spoiler|[[Survivor Guilt]]}}
* {{spoiler|1=[[Cruel and Unusual Death]]/[[Family-Unfriendly Death]]: Marimo was well-known in the Japanese fandom (as well as the then-nascent Western fandom) as the most infamous example of HEADCHOMP before [[Puella Magi Madoka Magica
* [[Drill Sergeant Nasty]]: As Michiru remembered her in the story she told Takeru {{spoiler|in the aftermath of Marimo's death in ''Alternative''}}. {{spoiler|The full extent of her nastiness is revealed in the sidestory ''Confession'' where, among other things, she ''[[Kick the Dog|kicks Michiru's fallen fellow cadet during training until the latter stands up, and later forces Michiru to drink from a puddle after making her run long and hard]]'', while delivering a verbal beatdown that would have made [[Full Metal Jacket|Sergeant Hartmann]] proud.}} She's mellowed out by the actual game, however, and while still very strict, is a bit more open with her kind and helpful nature.
* {{spoiler|[[Gorn]]}}
Line 453:
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast]]: She was initially known as the "[[Shinigami]]" in ''Unlimited/Alternative'', the infamous pilot whose squadmates in every battle always meet death. {{spoiler|[[Death Seeker|She wanted to die with them the whole time, too]]. [[Sole Survivor|Ouch.]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Sacrificial Lion]]}}
* [[Sensei
* [[Sergeant Rock]]: In ''Alternative'' she constantly reminds Takeru and his squadmates of many important things, {{spoiler|things she herself [[Shell-Shocked Veteran|learned]] [[Sole Survivor|the hard way]] [[Survivor Guilt|in her]] [[Death Seeker|past]].}}
* [[Teacher-Student Romance]]: {{spoiler|In ''Alternative,'' it's more or less confirmed that Marimo almost certainly did like him in ''Extra'' if the final words of Yuuko on the matter are anything to go on, where she says maybe Marimo's taste was better than she thought.}}
Line 495:
After returning from the world of ''Unlimited'', Takeru vows to himself to get to know Kasumi better so he has more success influencing Alternative IV. In the process, she reminds him even more of Sumika than she did the first time. {{spoiler|This is a fairly direct hint towards the true nature of Sumika and perhaps the world of ''Unlimited''/''Alternative'' in general. An astute reader will already have known about her telepathy and it is in fact revealed directly fairly early on.}}
* [[Animal-Eared Headband]]: One of the great mysteries of [[Muv
* [[Ascended Extra]]: Kasumi is much more important than she was in ''Unlimited'' {{spoiler|and in the ending has been 'promoted' to the world of ''Extra'' thanks to Sumika.}}
* [[Emotionless Girl]]: Early on; she opens up more and more in the course of the story.
Line 529:
{{spoiler|While guarding the Susano'o Mark II as Michiru tries to reactivate it at Sadogashima, Haruko is overwhelmed by attacking BETA and impaled by a Fortress class tail stinger, killing her instantly.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Impaled
=== Mitsuki Hayase ===
Line 554:
* [[Bi the Way]]: Invoked; she says she doesn't care "as long as it feels good". {{spoiler|That was her just joking; she had a cousin and fiancee whom she had not met in a long time.}}
* [[The Gadfly]]: Even more so than ''Ayamine''. She picks on Mitsuki and Takeru endlessly. The fact that she can do so that easily means she ends up respecting them both.
* [[Put
* [[The Tease]]
Line 563:
* [[Ojou]]
* {{spoiler|[[Put
=== Akane Suzumiya ===
Line 644:
{{quote| Voiced by: [[Daisuke Ono]]}}
* [[Expy]]: Of [[Top Gun|Maverick]] and [[Macross Plus
* [[Freudian Excuse]]: See [[Parental Abandonment]] below. Learning that his mother never blamed his father for leaving, he swore to surpass him. And growing up being picked upon due to his half-Japanese parentage did not help.
* [[Parental Abandonment]]: His father left their family and went back to Japan, and later his mother died of an illness. {{spoiler|His father was implied to be a TSF pilot who was killed in action.}}
Line 749:
* [[Insufferable Genius]]: Arai was a genius at everything during basic training, but never got along well with Marimo, his vice-Squad Leader. Marimo even compares him to the BETA as an implacable enemy.
* [[Stay in
* {{spoiler|[[Taking the Bullet|Tanking the Laser]]}}
Line 786:
{{spoiler|He manages to penetrate into the Sadogashima Hive, where he dies either by BETA or by the self-destruction of the Susano'o.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Doomed
* [[No Name Given]]: His full name is only given in the setting book ''Lunatic Dawn 3''.
* {{spoiler|[[The Hero Dies]]}}
Line 794:
Three-time Orbital Diver along with Anri. The Sadogashima drop is his third time working with Rina as reentry destroyer captain.
* {{spoiler|[[Doomed
=== Mother Goose 1 (Rina Terveaux) ===
Line 814:
{{spoiler|Some unspecified time in the future he is shown matured and commanding his own Royal Guard battalion in a Type-00F Takemikazuchi.}}
* [[Captain Ersatz]]: of [[Code Geass
* [[Drama Queen]]: He overreacts to the smallest things.
* [[Praetorian Guard]]: A cadet in the Imperial Royal Guards at the time of ''Adoration'', and later a commander.
