* DotingParent: To Arriety, with a dash of overprotectiveness.




to:

* GadgeteerGenius: A low key example, he's good at creating the spelunking / climbing gear to explore the house, an elevator, and the interior lighting of their home hidden under Sho's grandmother's house.
* SoProudOfYou: Though he doesn't gush, he is visible proud of Arriety in various scenes.
* TheStoic: Very taciturn and sparse with words.

* ActionGirl: The sheer amount of running and climbing Arietty does, as well as all the straining to use items not built for someone of her size, is enough that she qualifies.

* VocalDissonance: David Henrie gives Shō a deeper voice that might make him sound three years older than his actual age, while Tom Holland provides a more youthful voice that is befitting of Shō’s age.

* LeftHanging / TheUnreveal: Did she and her family reach their new home safely? The Disney dub says yes, but the original language never reveals their ultimate fates.



* CuteButCacaphonic:



* TheTragicRose: Or any kind of flower, to be exact. The scene where he reveals his palpitation to Arrietty is set in a field of flowers and if Shō actually ended up dying during the operation, the scene itself could be built around this trope.




to:

----
* AntiInterferenceLockUp: She confines Sho to his room without him knowing, but he manages to escape via the window.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: The first act has Haru as a loyal maid who is genuinely concerned for Shō’s well-being. The climax turns her into a full-on antagonist.
* CassandraTruth: No one believes Haru due to Sho moving the kitchen back into the dollhouse.
* Jerkass: She disparages the dollhouse that Sadako’s father built, locks Sho in his room for supposedly conspiring with the Borrowers and plans to reveal their existence to the world for either fame or profit.
* LargeHam: Carol Burnett, who voices Haru in the Disney dub, gives the character a few over-the-top lines such as “'''WHO TOOK MY LADYYYY?!!'''”.
* LaserGuidedKarma: Even if Sho told his aunt about her intentions, Haru’s loss of the Clock family from her possession is punishment enough.
* VillainousBreakdown: “AND NO I’M NOT LOSING MY MIND!” Says the one who claims to have seen the little people that no one else believes in.

!!Homily Clock
!!!Voiced by: Ryunosuke Kamiki (Japanese), Creator/DavidHenrie (US), Creator/TomHolland (UK)

The film’s male protagonist. He was born with a serious heart condition that leaves him unable to play like other kids and has to live with his aunt and her housekeeper while preparing for an operation that might save his life.
by:




* DarkAndTroubledPast: Though his life prior to ''Arrietty'' has yet be given too much detail, what we ''do'' know implies his childhood was ''not'' a happy one. He was born with a palpitation and it can be assumed that his parents got so fed up with his condition that they decided to divorce and [[WhenYouComingHomeDad drown themselves]][[MarriedToTheJob in their work]], all the while [[ParentalAbandonment distancing themselves away from Sho as far as possible]]. For this, he has to live with his loving aunt and her snoopy housekeeper while preparing for a surgical operation that may or may not cost him his life. Need I say more?
* IllBoy: Suffers from a palpitation.
* LeftHanging / TheUnreveal: Whether or not he survives his operation is deliberately open to interpretation…unless you’ve seen the Disney dub.
* SoapOperaDisease: The exact details of Shō’s cardiac abnormality can only be guessed.
* VocalDissonance: David Henrie gives Shō a deeper voice that might make him sound three years older than his actual age, while Tom Holland provides a more youthful voice that is befitting of Shō’s age.
