Suzume (film)/Characters: Difference between revisions
unneeded Trope placeholders
(i'm starting a character sheet, using character portraits from the 12 minute preview. More character portraits are coming when the film gets a home video release... eventually) |
(unneeded Trope placeholders) |

Line 21:
* [[Innocent Innuendo]]: Suzume uses chair!Souta to get to a box on top of a shelf, then belatedly asks if she can step on him.
* [[Kid Hero]]: The heroine is one of the oldest characters that can still be considered a "kid"; one more year and she'll belong in "Adult Hero". Although she hasn't come of age, she's too old to be considered a conventional Kid Hero. She's old enough to get a bank account, and is able to journey halfway across Japan without strict guidance from her guardians.
* [[Meaningful Name]]: "戸" in "岩戸" (Iwato) means "door", symbolising the doors Suzume closes, and even {{spoiler|
* [[Mistaken Identity]]: {{spoiler|Suzume mistakes Suzume to be Suzume's mum. No, seriously. As a child, she believed an older version of herself was her mum picking her up in the Ever After}}. None of this is played for laughs.
* [[Never Got to Say Goodbye]]: Suzume never got closure over her mother going missing.
Line 52:
A man studying alongside Souta to become a teacher.
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by Tomoya include:}}
* [[Hidden Depths]]: He looks like a rebel high school teen who ignores every instruction that comes his way, but no. He's actually a pretty relaxed person studying to become a teacher.
{{break}}
Line 61 ⟶ 59:
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by Tomoya include:}}
* [[Meaningful Name]]: "千果" (Chika) literally translates to "thousand" and "fruit", respectively. This represents the oranges that fell from Chika's moped when Suzume first met her.
{{break}}
Line 88 ⟶ 84:
* [[Eldritch Abomination]]: The worm first emerges from the doors as a, well, wormlike maroon smoke, but as more of it escapes, it starts to take on forms that wouldn't be out of place in ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]''. The unknowability comes from how Souta says that it causes destruction for no humanly-discernible reason. {{spoiler|An even bigger Eldritch Abomination worm is unleashed over Tokyo due to the failure of both keystones allowing its full form to come out}}.
* [[Kaiju]]: The absolutely massive giant {{spoiler|worm that fully escapes into Tokyo and will shatter the Earth}} unless stopped.
{{break}}
