Gunnm/Characters: Difference between revisions

* [[A Taste of Power]]: The berserker body she obtains in the first volume has more raw firepower that ANYTHING else in the series but some of her weapons in her (inferior in combat) TUNED body, and the Imaginos body she uses in the ending and in Last Order.

* [[Took a Level In Badass]]: The most striking one was when she was given the berserker body and went from a young girl without experiece that could do some martial arts to a plasma welding proffesional able to win a bar brawl by herself.

* [[Ubermensch]]

* {{spoiler|[[Ultimate Lifeform]]: [http://www.mangareader.net/battle-angel-alita-last-order/102/8 When she is recreated the second time], Payne equates her to a [[Humanoid Abomination]].}}

* [[Brain Uploading]]: {{spoiler|Like every Tipharean, his brain was replaced with a chip}}, but he uses it to his advantage by periodically copying its contents, making backups in his body, making backup bodies...

* [[Cloning Blues]]: There are about 3 to 5 of him running around, and managed to become a literal pest.

* [[Crazy Awesome]]: The more we see him, the more obvious it gets.

* [[Early-Bird Cameo]]: Debuts in the second half of the 5th volume of the original manga, past its midpoint, but is first seen in the very first volume, and his name is first mentioned in the third.

Scrapyard cybersurgeon and Hunter-Warrior who found what was left of {{spoiler|<s>Yoko</s>}}Gally in the scrap heap and revived/rebuilt her. Ido initially had some hopes of a [[Pygmalion Plot]] (which is probably why he ''named'' Gally such, as a short of Galatea), but wasn't much disappointed when she turned out indifferent, and became her [[Parental Substitute]] to amend her amnesia.

 

* [[Blood Knight]]: His sole reason to be a hunter-warrior.

* {{spoiler|[[Killed Off for Real]]: Well, somewhat subverted, he is resurrected, but ends up [[Laser-Guided Amnesia|deleting his own memories]], so the Ido we (and Gally) knew and loved is gone for good.}}

** [[Disproportionate Retribution]]: "I'll RUIN the life of the girl who beat me in a bar brawl because I was a jerk with her!"

** [[Jerkass Woobie]]

* [[Implacable Man]]: {{spoiler|After getting the Berzerk body he becomes this.}}

* [[Knife Nut]]

* [[My God, What Have I Done?]]: His reaction {{spoiler|after accidently killing his girlfriend, over his anger for Gally.}} It's also what drives him over the edge.

* {{spoiler|[[Redemption Equals Death]]}}

* [[You Will Be Assimilated]]: The active Berserker body really likes to eat other cyborgs...

 

 

* [[The Ace]]: He ended up taking challenges only from teams, AND with a handicap, otherwise he'd have no challenge. And he had barely in this way. Justified, however, in that his brain was touched by a certain [[Mad Scientist]] who enjoys flan...

* [[Dark-Skinned Blond]]

* [[Determinator]]

A mysterius Radio DJ who drives around the wasteland with his assistant. His musical tallent stems from his unique ability to read memories inprinted on items by their users. This can range from music and singing from instruments to fencing from Swords. He also can only see in infrared and hear in radio signals. Becomes a potential love intrest for Gally after reading her memories. However he also harbors two dark Secrets. {{spoiler|He has a split personality named Den who leads a massiv army and tries to destroy Jeru and he is the biological son of Destiny Nova.}}

 

* [[The Empath]]: Thanks to his psychometry, he can feel the experiences of whatever he touches.

* [[Instant Expert]]: Can learn EVERYTHING about anything he touches, incluiding how to use it at its best.

* [[Love At First Sight|Love At First Touch]]: Due to his power, having to fix Gally's body made him fall in love with her.

* {{spoiler|[[Strong Family Resemblance]]: He looks eerilie similar to Nova without his specs in, as rare as that sight is.}}

 

=== Den ===

* [[Establishing Character Moment]]: Seeing him deliver a [[Badass Boast]] to an opponent who is destroying his body, just to kill him in one single move once he finishes. Then squatting the manager of said opponent for being a pawn of Tiphares.

* [[Large and In Charge]]

** {{spoiler|[[Shaggy Dog Story]]: And that charge ends with his [[BFS]] breaking when he gets an strike against one of the tubes that go up to Tiphares. He decides dying is the best thing he can do then.}}

 

=== Figure Four ===

* [[Manly Tears]]: {{spoiler|When [[Cowardly Lion|Yolg]] dies.}}

* [[Out of Focus]]: He only got mentions in Last Order. Compare with Koyomi, Kaos, and even Vector and Gally's motorball circle, which were seen and even got some plotlines.

 

 

One of the Gally's TUNED clones, who broke free and, being burdened with an ''extremely'' powerful [[Middle Child Syndrome]] decided to prove his (well, ''[[Gender Bender|her]]'' at the time) worth by hunting down all other clones and, finally, the original. After getting (then still) her ass kicked by Gally almost at the end of that quest (see below), she ([[Overly Long Gag|then]]) toned down somewhat and became something of an [[Annoying Younger Sibling]].

 

* [[Animal Motif]]: [http://www.mangareader.net/1047-39607-1/battle-angel-alita-last-order/chapter-41.html Shark.]

* [[Artificial Human]]: He started out as a copy of Gally, remember.

* [[Heroes Fight Barehanded]]: Went from fighting with a combination of [[Good Old Fisticuffs|brutish Panzer Kunst]], [[BFS|Sechster Angriff]], [[BFG|and the Solenoid Quench Gun]] to [[Heroes Fight Barehanded|mostly just punching]], because he no longer has the Quench gun, and normally immediately loses his Titan Blade in fights.

* [[Hot-Blooded]]

* [[Idiot Hero]]: Well, Sechs isn't really going to win any Nobel prizes... mainly because you [[Blood Knight|couldn't kill anybody]] with it.

** Openly admits it himself and gets angry when people force him to use his brain(chip).

* [[Middle Child Syndrome]]

** Gets funnier when you remember that there were 12 TUNEDs, 13 with Gally. He really is middle one of the production line.

** Even worse because Sechs's body {{spoiler|was ultimately destroyed by Zekka's punch.}}

* [[Opposite Sex Clone]]: What he is now, but given just how much they've diverged, he's closer to just a little brother.

* [[Spin Attack]]: Most of his attacks involve spinning.

* [[Spirited Competitor]]: To some extent, he won't kill enemies too easy to kill, and he's greatest ambition is to defeat the greatest compeition.

* [[Took a Level In Dumbass]]: [http://www.mangareader.net/1047-39593-43/battle-angel-alita-last-order/chapter-28.html Starts off a dark violent character and an adversary to Gally, who just wants to kill people, especially Gally once the tournament ends.] [http://www.mangareader.net/1047-39626-6/battle-angel-alita-last-order/chapter-60.html Later on, his eyes get larger and he becomes more of a dumb comic relief character], frequently [[Balloon Belly|balloon bellying]] and reminding the readers that he's only 2 whilst making goofy faces. Hard to remember at times that he killed most of the GR series.

* [[The Napoleon]]: It is implied that he didn't like being a "shorty" in his TUNED body.

* [[Evil Chancellor]]

* [[The Chessmaster]]: Some of his plans are stretching for centuries.

* [[Jerkass]]: And proud of it.

* [[Knight Templar]]: In a big way.

* [[Tall, Dark and Snarky]]: He knows that he's the top dog, and doesn't feel that shy about it (except when it might [[The Plan|hinder his plans]])

* [[Utopia Justifies the Means]]: Trinidad won't stop before ''anything'' to bring his goal, however [[Squick|squicky]] you'd find it.

* {{spoiler|[[Your Head Asplode]]}}: In Chapter 110. He still [[Death Is Cheap|may have a backup]], though.

 

* [[Playful Hacker]]: Nearly textbook example.

* [[Red Baron]]: ''The Weasel''.

** The chapters before the final battle of the ZOTT show him still in coma and in medical care of his childhood love.

** Chapter 109 shows him probably coming back to his senses, as he's seen smiling under the ventilator mask.

* [[Hell-Bent for Leather]]

* [[Ho Yay]]: [[Foe Yay|With Sechs, naturally.]] Although Sechs was originally female.

** He most certainly is a complete [[Jerkass]] in his own epic fashion at [[Ambition Is Evil|one notable moment.]]

* [[Lightning Bruiser]]: Can punch so fast he produces enough heat to glass objects.

* [[Ubermensch]]

* [[Walking Shirtless Scene]]

* [[Worthy Opponent]]

* [[Older Than He Looks|Older Than He Acts]]: He's about 200 years old, but comparable to Sechs in terms of maturity.

=== Toji ===

[[File:toji_3222.jpg|frame]]

 

* [[Animal Motif]]: Rat

* [[Martial Arts and Crafts]]: [[Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot|Super Electromagnetic Karate]].

* [[Shotoclone]]: He's largely a Ryu's [[Expy]], right down to the torn-off sleeves of his ''gi''..

* [[Worthy Opponent]]: He even agrees to back up Gally should he lose their fight.
