* BerserkButton: May just be a side effect from the performance, but the Prof seems to hate cuteness of any kind. He doesn't hate ''every'' cute show, but facepalms if the moe seems included for no reason other than fanservice. And hey! That's what most anime is these days!

* [[RedOniBlueOni Blue Oni]]: To Vixen.

* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: It's not as apparent in his reviews, but if you watch his Let's Plays, especially the Videogame/StarFox64 and VideoGame/SuperMario64 ones, it becomes clear that JO is something of one.
** His twitter is also a good source especially after he's had 5 cans of coke.
** He also mentions in his ''Manga/AzumangaDaioh'' review that among his friends, he's known as the [[TropeCodifier Osaka]] of the group.
* CoolBigBro: He lets his little sister make cameos in the live-action intros, and off-screen shares some of the more child-friendly anime with her.
* CovertPervert: As demonstrated in Pocky Spot 22.

* {{Bishonen}}: Lampshaded in Rabbit's "Between the Lines", when she did an anime style drawing of him and pointed out that she was unable to accomplish drawing him without him looking like one.

* StupidSexyFlanders: To Creator/CrispinFreeman and Creator/SteveBlum, but mostly Creator/CrispinFreeman, but who can [[{{Bishonen}} blame]] him?
* [[TallDarkAndHandsome Tall, Blond and Handsome]]: The tallest of the four, blond, and quite attractive.

* {{Adorkable}}

* DeadpanSnarker

** In fact it's a widely stated view of hers.

The final SixthRanger to join the site. He hosts Anime Movie Review which looks at... um [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Anime Movies.]]

* TheManBehindTheMan: He actually owns the website. This is used to defeat Vix in her ''Disney/TheLittleMermaid'' review.

-->(''in her Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast review'') Luckily, Chip, Mrs. Potts' cute tea cup son... (''followed by subtitled d'awwwwing when he says something cute at the end'')
-->(''in her Disney/TheLittleMermaid review'') Then we see Flounder, who in the Broadway version is [[{{Squee}} ADORABLE!]]

* VillainProtagonist: During her ''Disney/TheLittleMermaid'' review where she imprisoned JO's voice in a tree (leaving his real self mute) and used it as a bargaining chip to get Prof's power.... too bad Ark controls the site.

* BiTheWay: Just check her Twitter/Formspring. Also mentioned wanting a girlfriend in at least one of Vixen's reviews.

* UsefulNotes/AmericanAccents: Well, she's using one. Just not a particular one.

* UnknownRival: Holds quite strong aversions against WebVideo/BennettTheSage of Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses and BlisteredThumbs, because he feels that he entered his turf by doing snarky reviews of bad anime. Bennett on the other hand never acknowledged knowing him. Former comrade and Desudes EnsembleDarkhorse WebVideo/JesuOtaku having popular crossovers with Bennett doesn't help.

* {{ADCD}}: Let's see, he reviews anime, is making a retrospective on all the ''Franchise/{{Digimon}}'' anime, dubs {{Anime Theme Song}}s, is analyzing the ''Manga/{{Trigun}}'' anime, has ''another'' job reviewing even ''more'' anime on Website/AnimeNewsNetwork and oh yeah, is currently working on ''a RadioDrama adaptation on the ENTIRE ''Manga/FruitsBasket'' manga'' [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking (also, he works at a theater)]].

* DearNegativeReader: Released a full-length one over his twitter sometime around mid/late-2011 in response to the frequent complaints about his aforementioned {{ADCD}}.

** Sexism toward either gender also gets on her nerves; she hates Ecchi series for their portrayal of female characters as nothing more than busty MsFanservice and expresses similar disgust toward hentai. On the flipside, she also loathes works that [[UnfortunateImplications imply]] that rape is somehow okay (or even romantic) [[DoubleStandard if it happens to a man]] and once called a StrawFeminist character a hypocrite for preaching gender equality while simultaneously calling men "stupid".

* LovableSexManiac: To a degree, but he somehow contests Prof for the site's biggest pervert after ''LaBlueGirl''.

* UnwantedAssistance: They show up in Hitch and Vixen's review of LaBlueGirl and insist on talking about the clitris in their usual fashion despite Hitch telling them not to, correctly guessing he'd get more electric shocks as a result.

* [[BasementDweller Attic Dweller]]: But unlike most examples of this trope it's not by choice. It's either live in Vixen's attic or get shot.

* LoveableSexManiac: To a degree, but he somehow contests Prof for the site's biggest pervert after ''LaBlueGirl''.

* MeanCharacterNiceActor: Her more sociopathic streak is a bit of an act.

* VillainProtagonist: During her ''Disney/TheLittleMermaid'' review where she imprisoned JO's voice in a tree (leaving her real self mute) and used it as a bargaining chip to get Prof's power.... too bad Ark controls the site.

* MaskPower

* HeroicBSOD: Shot himself in the balls when he found out that ''BreakingDawn'' was being split into 2 films.

* CovertPervert: "Huh boobs what?"

An OppositeSexClone of Professor Otaku who showed up at the end of his review of ''Anime/{{Pretear}}''. She also reviewed ''FushigiYuugi'' and Prof went back to normal... but she ended up sticking around.

* UnknownRival: Holds quite strong aversions against WebVideo/BennettTheSage of Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses and BlisteredThumbs, because he feels that he entered his turf by doing snarky reviews of bad anime. Bennett on the other hand never acknowledged knowing him. Former comrade and Desudes EnsembleDarkhorse JesuOtaku having popular crossovers with Bennett doesn't help.

* StupidSexyFlanders: To Creator/CrispinFreeman and Creator/SteveBlum, but mostly Creator/CrispinFreeman, but who can [[{{Bishonen}} blame]] [[{{Badass}} him]]?

* StopHelpingMe: They show up in Hitch and Vixen's review of LaBlueGirl and insist on talking about the clitris in their usual fashion despite Hitch telling them not to, correctly guessing he'd get more electric shocks as a result.

* PhraseCatcher: SHUT UP!

* {{Squee}}: Not himself, but his snarktitles don't pass the chance in the ''OuranHighSchoolHostClub'' review.

* [[RuleSixtyThree Rule 63]]: [[{{Vandread}} Xen.]]

* HeroesLoveDogs: He's been shown playing with a roommate's dog and his love for wolves is part of why he loves WolfsRain.

By far the most successful and analytical of the Brigade, JO is notable for her in depth and objective reviews and her large amount of shows: JO Anime Reviews, In-Betweens, New Lyrics, and various {{Lets Play}}s.

* {{ADCD}}: Let's see, she reviews anime, is making a retrospective on all the ''Franchise/{{Digimon}}'' anime, dubs {{Anime Theme Song}}s, is analyzing the ''Manga/{{Trigun}}'' anime, has ''another'' job reviewing even ''more'' anime on Website/AnimeNewsNetwork and oh yeah, is currently working on ''a RadioDrama adaptation on the ENTIRE ''Manga/FruitsBasket'' manga'' [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking (also, she works at a theater)]].
* AuthorFilibuster: She used her ''Anime/{{FLCL}}'' review as an opportunity to go on a rant about how Creator/StudioGainax are complete HACKS when it comes to making [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Psychological]] [[Anime/ThisUglyYetBeautifulWorld Dramas]] and that they should stick to [[RuleOfCool over-the-top goofiness]] and simple morals. She addressed this fact on her Website/{{Twitter}}, and stated that the reason she did this was because ''FLCL'' was just way to simple for even ''her'' to talk about in length.

* BreakTheCutie: WebVideo/BennettTheSage's goal for her. So far he's failed all three times.
* BriefAccentImitation: Takes on a self-admittedly goofy Brooklyn gangster accent for her ''LightNovel/{{Baccano}}'' review.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: It's not as apparent in her reviews, but if you watch her Let's Plays, especially the Videogame/StarFox64 and VideoGame/SuperMario64 ones, it becomes clear that JO is something of one.
** Her twitter is also a good source especially after she's had 5 cans of coke.
** She also mentions in her ''Manga/AzumangaDaioh'' review that among her friends, she's known as the [[TropeCodifier Osaka]] of the group.
* CoolBigSis: She lets her little sister make cameos in the live-action intros, and off-screen shares some of the more child-friendly anime with her.

* DearNegativeReader: Released a full-length one over her twitter sometime around mid/late-2011 in response to the frequent complaints about her aforementioned {{ADCD}}.
* DoubleStandardAbuseFemaleOnMale: Her crossover review of ''Film/SuckerPunch'' with [[WebVideo/BadMovieBeatdown Film Brain]] was a pretty severe example of this.
* FakeBrit: She makes fun of this trope at the beginning of her Anime/{{Hellsing}} review.

* [[FarmBoy Farm Gal]]
* HeroesLoveDogs: She's been shown playing with a roommate's dog and her love for wolves is part of why she loves WolfsRain.
* KindheartedCatLover: She has at least two cats who can show up in a review with her, notably Leo.

* PinkProductPloy: She bought a computer case which was part of a PC [[WebVideo/WhatTheFuckIsWrongWithYou Nash]] came out to build for her because of its unique pink color.
* PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy: In the opening to ''Anime/SamuraiChamploo'' review and her first line of the Franchise/{{Digimon}} retrospective. The snarktitles are not impressed.

* RunningGag: Her gripes about {{Creator/GONZO}} and their varying production values.

* {{Squee}}: Not herself, but her snarktitles don't pass the chance in the ''OuranHighSchoolHostClub'' review.
* StupidSexyFlanders:
--> "Seriously [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday I'm straight]] but that [[Anime/CowboyBebop gurl]] is [[EvenTheGirlsWantHer dead]] [[MsFanservice sexy]]."
--> "Wow. It's times like this I wish I could whistle. You could stop traffic with a body like that." (in addressing Elizabeth from Manga/{{Trigun}})
* {{Tomboy}}: From the way she dresses to the shows she likes, JO is pretty masculine.
** She makes it crystal clear in the start of her ''{{Mahoromatic}}'' review that dolling herself up is not a hobby of hers.
