This series has a [[Trauma Center (series)/Characters|character sheet]]. Put tropes related to the characters there.
{{tropelist}}
* [[100% Completion]]: The final [[Cosmetic Award|Doctor Medals]] in ''Trauma Team'' for CR-S01, Maria, Hank and Tomoe require getting XS ranks on ''every single operation''. The remainder involve various tasks such as finishing an operation with only "Cool" miniranks or finishing every first response operation without losing a single patient. Mercifully, Gabe's medals are glorified scavenger hunts, and Naomi's are quizzes on various medical factoids.
Line 100 ⟶ 101:
** In some operations, saving the patient as quickly as possible will not score you enough points for an S or XS rank. You will have to allow for more problems to occur to heal them and receive extra points.
** ''Under the Knife 2'' throws this out in favor of having a set of bonuses that you must get 2000 points from in order to get the S or XS rank. If it says to do something at least X times, there is typically exactly X of that task for you to do. In short: doing perfect WILL get you an S or XS rank... [[Fission Mailed|except when mailing your fission]], [[Guide Dang It|in which you MUST do a certain number of actions in a certain amount of time without any misses before ending the mission]].
** ''Trauma Team'' does away with this completely by giving each operation a strictly fixed amount of actions that will result in a Good or Cool. Dragging on an operation for longer can only lower your score. Because of this despite operations in ''Trauma Team'' being easier to clear, they are much harder to get XS ranks on. One blogger has described ''Trauma Center''{{'}}s difficulty as [[Tsundere]] (harsh on the outside, but soft on the inside) and ''Trauma Team''{{'}}s as Deretsun (soft on the outside, but harsh on the inside).
** It is possible to sacrifice your rank in order to achieve a higher numerical score. However, the game gives rank higher precedence than score when saving your best performance. So achieving a high rank can lock you out of topping the leaderboards.
* [[Dressed to Heal]]: Played straight and subverted throughout each game.
Line 190 ⟶ 191:
* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: In ''Trauma Team'', {{spoiler|Professor Sartre not only gets infected by the Rosalia virus trying to extract a cure from Rosalia's blood, he also [[Sealed Evil in a Can|manages to unleash the same virus]] to wreak mass terror}}.
* [[Nietzsche Wannabe]]: Adam. Yet he also thinks that he's serving God... he even goes so far as to identify GUILT with the Seven Plagues of Revelation and proclaims he will smile as Derek and friends burn in Hell for opposing the Divine Plan.
* [[Nintendo Hard]]: It's an [[Atlus]] game, what did you [[That One Boss/
** Made worse by the fact that each game is hard in it's own way. The original favored precision (no quick gestures for stitches, you have to make sure it's very even and narrow), ''New Blood'' favored consistency (keep up a tricky operating procedure over a long mission), and ''Under the Knife 2'' favored raw speed (such as the challenge on Bythos being that most players simply can't heal faster than the patient takes damage). Which game is the worst ends up depending on your particular playing style.
* [[No-Gear Level]]: The games occasionally throw a curveball by limiting access to one of your crucial instruments. The epitome of this is an operation in ''New Blood'' where the player is given no stabilizer and a VERY limited supply of antibiotic gel... in other words, no way to increase the patient's vitals in an operation that requires techniques that damage the vitals slightly in the process. Valerie even comments afterward she'd never appreciated the stabilizer so much.
