Line 1: {{work}} The characters of ''[[~~Sym Bionic Titan\|~~Sym-Bionic Titan]]'': ---- == Princess Ilana / Ilana "Lunis" == {{quote\| Voiced by [[Tara Strong]]}} [[File:SBT-01_1703.jpg\|frame]] Line 11: ---- * [[Action Girl]]: Less aggressive than the guys, but she can and will fight when the situation calls for it. * [[Anime Hair]]: Seriously, how does her hair manage to stay up like that? And from the looks of her dad, it apparently runs in the family. ** The one time you actually get to see her hair down is ''very'' briefly when the cheerleaders and she fall into the school pool. Cut to the next scene, and her hair is automatically back up again. Line 25: * [[Closer to Earth]]: She is quicker to accept human lifestyles and customs than Lance and Octus. * [[Cool Loser]]: Most of her classmates either ignore her or make fun of her. * [[~~Daddys~~Daddy's Girl]]: She loves her father so much that seeing an illusion of him dead causes an emotional breakdown. * [[Enemy Scan]]: Done in episode 3, "Elephant Logic", on the mysterious, gaseous blob that's destroying everything, then on the dragon monster. * [[~~Everythings Better With Princesses\|~~Everything's Better ~~With~~with Princesses]] * [[Fallen Princess]] * [[Fish Out of Water]] / [[No Social Skills]] * [[Fragile Speedster]]: Her Corus armor seems to be like this, yet it's sturdy enough to survive a falling building and a stomping from a false Manus unit unscathed. * [[Frickin' Laser Beams]]: Corus can shoot a beam capable of destroying pretty much anything. {{spoiler\|This gets shown off in episode 11.}} * [[Gold Makes Everything Shiny]]: Her armor. * [[Graceful Ladies Like Purple]]: Her princess dress. Line 44: * [[The Pollyanna]]: Definitely the most upbeat and optimistic member of the group. * [[Powered Armor]]: Her Corus unit is like this and is only slightly larger than an adult human by a foot or so. * [[The ~~Presidents~~President's Daughter]]: Modula wants Ilana killed so that there is no one in his way to take the Galalunian throne and no one to inspire hope in the people to rebel against him. * [[Princesses Prefer Pink]]: A fair portion of her outfits consist of either pink or purple. Even the screens inside her armor are pink. * [[Protectorate]]: Towards Lance and Octus. * [[Royals Who Actually Do Something]]: When Galaluna was at peace, she did a lot of diplomatic and humanitarian work, as well as copious rescues of trapped-in-a-well pets. * [[The Spock]]: Originally [[The Kirk]]. * [[Spock Speak]]: Similar to that of [[Teen Titans (~~Animation~~animation)\|Starfire]] (even though she's voiced by ''[[Tara Strong\|Raven]]''). This lasts for only the first few episodes, however. * [[Spoiled Sweet]]: Ilana is obviously used to the finer things in life, but she doesn't let that get in the way of saving the day when evil rears its head oh-so-often. * [[Unlimited Wardrobe]]: She's worn four different outfits in a single episode. * [[Woman in White]]: In episode 6. * [[Youthful Freckles]] * [[Zettai Ryouiki]]: A marvelous Class B, [[Depending Onon the Artist\|Class A in other shots]]. == Corporal Lance / Lance "Lunis" == {{quote\| Voiced by Kevin Thoms}} [[File:SBT-02_8260.jpg\|frame]] Line 63: ---- * [[All Girls Want Bad Boys]]: {{quote\| '''Teacher:''' Care to tell the class a little bit about yourself?~~<br />~~ '''Lance:''' ... No.~~<br />~~ [''Girls in the class smile in awe''] }} ** He's been to jail at least twice on Galaluna and once on Earth, so in that sense he really is a bad boy. Line 73: * [[The Big Guy]] * [[Brains and Brawn]]: Brawn to Octus' Brains. * [[Captain Ersatz]]: He basically ''is'' [[Getter Robo\|Hyato Jin (manga)]], right down to the hairstyle. * [[Chick Magnet]]: Every girl at school practically worships the ground he walks on, but he can't actually work up the nerve to pursue the one he actually likes. The one time he asked she turned him down, but that was more because of his choice of locale rather than denying him personally. * [[Curtains Match the Window]]: Black hair and eyes. Line 81: * [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Perhaps best exemplified with the [[Shirtless Scene]] in the third episode. ** And lampshaded in the fourth episode: {{quote\| '''Ilana''': [[Lampshade Hanging\|I don't get it.]]<br /> '''Octus''': [[Tall, Dark and Handsome\|Dark hair,]] [[What Beautiful Eyes!\|bedroom eyes,]] [[Tall, Dark and Snarky\|moody demeanor,]] [[Ho Yay\|I totally get it.]] }} * [[Fish Out of Water]] / [[No Social Skills]]: In his own sort of way, especially when he considers anyone who so much as lays a hand on Ilana as an enemy. * [[Geeky Turn On]]: Mike Chan's car causes his "circuits to pulse." * [[Genre Savvy]]: He knows that any time Ilana gets excited about something it probably won't end well and in "A Family Crisis" he flat out states that nothing good will come from leaving to rescue Solomon. {{quote\| "Why is it that everyone agrees that I'm right but we're going anyway?"}} * [[Good -Looking Privates]]: He holds the rank of corporal in Galaluna's military. * [[Heroic Vow]]: To protect Ilana. * [[Hidden Depths]]: {{quote\| '''Ilana:''' Why do you think my father chose somebody so...''strange?''~~<br />~~ '''Octus:''' Maybe your father sees something in him that none of us do. }} * [[Hot -Blooded]]: Complete with [[Hotblooded Sideburns]]. * [[Idiot Hair]]: Far from being an idiot, though. * [[I Will Protect Her]]: To Ilana. And he takes his job [[Berserk Button\|very]] [[Hot -Blooded\|seriously]]. * [[Jerk ~~With~~with a Heart of Gold]]: He can be pretty intense when it comes to protecting Ilana, evidently shown in the second episode, but he's well-intentioned and will try to make up for his wrongs -- such as destroying the robot that he accidently led back to the neighborhood and getting Ilana the [[Pet the Dog\|snow globe]] she was admiring from the furniture store. Interestingly, Lance often avoids the [[Conflict Ball]] with Ilana. As well as the fact that as the episodes go on, Lance is slowly mellowing out (or at least he's not as [[Hot -Blooded]] as he used to be). * [[The Lancer]]: Doubles as [[Meaningful Name]]. * [[Le Parkour]]: Judging by his chasing-down of Ilana when she wanted to go to the mall, he's pretty good at it. * [[The McCoy]] * [[Meaningful Name]]: His armor wields a lance and is [[The Lancer]]. Reversed, it means an [~~http://en.~~[wikipedia~~.org/wiki/Lance_Corporal~~:Lance Corporal\|actual rank]]. * [[Missing Mom]]: As with Ilana, the issue's never really brought up. * [[Mighty Glacier]]: Manus, his armor system. * [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: Lance has more than once managed to create quite the mess due to his insensitivity and quick-tempered nature. * [[One -Man Army]]: Lance, to the point that the Galaluna Military seems to think his mere presence would be enough to turn the tide of the war they've already lost. * [[Self -Made Man]]: He had some support from the king and General Modula, but other than that he was pretty much on his own. * [[Shirtless Scene]]: So far, he's had more fanservice than Ilana! * [[Shrinking Violet]]: If "Disenfranchised" was any indication, he doesn't like being the center of attention very much and even shrinks away at Ilana's accidental announcement of his playing in a band. Line 112: * [[Sour Supporter]]: On his worse days. * [[Spock Speak]]: He averts this more than Ilana and Octus do. Of course, he interacts with people less as well... * [[Tall, Dark and Handsome]]: 6'0'' and 155 lbs, according to his license. * [[Troubled but Cute]]: A source of popularity at school. * [[When She Smiles\|When He Smiles]]: Played straight and [[Played for Laughs]]. * [[~~Its~~It's Popular, Now It Sucks\|You're Popular, So You Suck]]: [[Invoked Trope\|Invoked]]; he had a short lived tenure in a band, only to be fired because he was too "mainstream". == Octus / Newton / Mr. Lunis == {{quote\| Voiced by [[Brian Posehn]]}} [[File:Octus-Newton-Dad_2_5157.jpg\|frame]] Line 129: * [[Brains and Brawn]]: Brains to Lance's Brawn. * {{spoiler\|[[Came Back Strong]]}}: {{spoiler\|Is brought back to life by the head of G3 in the series finale. Not only can Titan be formed again, its power increased greatly along with having gained the ability to [[Iron Man\|fire powerful energy beams from its limbs]]}}. * [[The Comically Serious]]: He manages to pull off a lot of witty one-liners without even seeming to try. And when he actually does try to make jokes, [[So Unfunny ~~Its~~It's Funny\|they're so nerdy that no one else gets them]]. And if he's in a bad mood, he can become a [[Deadpan Snarker]]. * [[Do -Anything Robot]]: So far, Octus has been very versatile. He can even generate solid cash (and other objects) by apparently converting it directly from energy. This may be the same matter-replicators used to make the Titan's weapons. * [[Emergent Human]]: He's [[Captain Obvious\|definitely not a human]] but, he's not ''just'' a robot either. This is examined in "I Am Octus". * [[Flying Brick]]: Not only can he fly, he can get hit by a truck on the freeway without being hurt. The truck crumbles from the impact, while Octus doesn't even flinch. Line 139: ** He seems to be growing in popularity off-screen, too - his contacts list in "Shaman of Fear" has at least 10 names on it besides "Ilana" and "LANCE". * [[Ho Yay]]: With Meat at the end of Episode 7. (Though as a robot, this is a potentially ambiguous distinction.) * [[Huge Guy, Tiny Girl]]: He's a lot bigger than Kimmy. * [[I Will Protect Her]]: Most fans seem to forget that he has the same bodyguard mission as Lance, he's just more calm about it. May also extend to his girlfriend Kimmy. * [[The Kirk]]: Originally started out as [[The Spock]] until he later gained emotions. Line 146: * [[The Masquerade Will Kill Your Dating Life]]: In "Under the Three Moons" it did. * [[Master of Disguise]]: But he frankly doesn't put that much effort into it when we know for a fact he could. Aside from the fact that his bulk never changes, his "dad" persona is essentially his "student" aged up appropriately. He's shown the ability to alter his appearance into a much thinner form, so apparently he just doesn't feel like it. * [[Mundane Utility]]: Octus is super-strong and super-fast, and will use all his might and skill to... throw snowballs. * [[Mysterious Past]]: Exactly how he came to be isn't entirely clear. We at least know Ilana's father was doing some touch-up work just prior to the invasion, but that's it. * [[Not Distracted Byby the Sexy]]: Kimmy's dance in "Lessons in Love" fails to convince Newton to do her homework for her. * [[Opposites Attract]]: Newton developed a completely unexpected romance with the not-so-ditzy sexpot cheerleader, Kimmy. * [[Papa Wolf]]: To Lance and Ilana. * [[Protagonist -Centered Morality]]: Octus is the most guilty of this out of the three, which makes sense because his programming dictates Ilana be protected first and foremost. He doesn't want Lance stopping crimes only because it attracts undue attention, and was perfectly fine with Lance driving a car without a license (and would have made him one if asked). ** By the events of "A Family Crisis" he seems to have moved past this mindset, agreeing with Ilana to respond to Solomon's distress call as it is the right thing to do, much to Lance's annoyance. * [[Real Men Wear Pink]]: Literally. He wears a pink apron and matching oven mitts when he cooks. * [[Ridiculously -Human Robots]]: Octus has made the point several times that he's not an average robot whenever this issue comes up. * [[Robot Buddy]]: Although Ilana and Lance don't seem to see him like this. * [[Secret Identity]]: He has TWO of them; Newton and 'Dad' Lunis. How Newton fits into the Lunis family is highly ambiguous. Line 161: * [[The Smart Guy]] * [[Spock Speak]]: He gradually begins to take on human speech affections, to varying levels of success. {{quote\| '''Octus''': "I know, right?" (''said without any intonation'')}} * [[Sugar and Ice Personality]] * [[Super Speed]]: Octus displays this in Episode 6, going fast enough to be invisible to the naked eye and whip up a strong breeze, yet not fast enough to cause a sonic boom. He doesn't even have to move his upper-body to boot. Line 169: * {{spoiler\|[[Unexplained Recovery]]}}: {{spoiler\|After spending episode 19 dead, he's brought back to life by the head of G3 in episode 20 and this is pretty much his explaination.}} * [[Voluntary Shapeshifting]]: Overlaps with [[Master of Disguise]] and [[Sizeshifter]]. * [[What Is This Thing You Call Love?]]: Subverted - he understands the concept but doesn't feel it with Kimmy (initially, at least). Instead, he feels 'happy' around her (sounding more like an unusually self-aware teenager than a robot). == General Modula == {{quote\| Voiced by Don Leslie}} [[File:SBT-04_9870.jpg\|frame]] Line 182: * [[Evil Former Friend]]: To the King. * [[Eye Beams]]: His helmet-eye shoots mind-reading beams and disintegration rays. * [[Eyeless Face]]: His hat conceals his eyes, though it actually ''has'' an eye on it itself. * [[Face Heel Turn]]: We don't know the details yet, but he used to be one of the good guys. * [[Fallen Hero]] Line 193: == Solomon == {{quote\| Voiced by Tim Russ}} [[File:SBT-05_2224.jpg\|frame]] Line 203: * [[Heel Face Turn]]: After the heroes save him from the Energy Creature, he's more than willing to return the favor and help them. * [[Hidden Agenda Villain]]: If he is a villain. ** He might be more of an {{spoiler\|[[Enigmatic Minion]], since he's actually working for someone else}}. * [[Nice Hat]]: His whole wardrobe, really. Brings to mind [[Hellsing\|a certain vampire...]] * [[Shout -Out]]: The name he introduces himself to Ilana is [[Solomon Kane\|Kane.]] * [[The Stoic]]: Typically very cool and reserved, and to date hasn't been seen to express any emotion particularly strongly. He's [[Not So Stoic]] as to pass up the occasional deadpan snark at General Steel's expense, however, or to crack a smile at [[Crowning Moment of Funny\|a children's song about teamwork being played from the speakers of a giant robot]]. == General Julius Steel == {{quote\| Voiced by [[John Dimaggio]]}} [[File:SBT-06_8188.jpg\|frame]] Line 227: * [[More Dakka]]: His solution to most problems is finding a bigger gun to fire at it. This has come back to bite him on the butt at least once so far. ** His own personal mecha, the H.M.E.R, is this trope. It's packed with an ungodly amount of guns and weapons. * [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: His actions are what result in episode 3's [[Monster of the Week]]. * [[Took a Level In Badass]]: {{spoiler\|Once he gets a giant robot of his own.}} == Kimmy == {{quote\| Voiced by [[Kari Wahlgren]]}} [[File:SBT-07_5453.jpg\|frame]] Line 245: * [[Hidden Depths]]: There's more going on behind that pretty face than you'd think. * [[Impossible Hourglass Figure]]: She's got plenty of curves and evidently likes to show them off. * [[Jerk ~~With~~with a Heart of Gold]]: She softens up enough to help Ilana save the school but her attitude doesn't fully change until Newton gets through to her. * [[Lovable Alpha Bitch]] * [[Ms. Fanservice]]: And how!
