History Characters / GundamBuildDivers

* EvilCounterpart: Not exactly evil, but try comparing Gundam GP-Rase-Two to Riku's Gundam 00 Sky: both are their original Gunplas being outfitted with a Gundam Mobile Suit (GP-02 and Destiny Gundam) from a different universe and have enhanced versions of Trans-Am. GP-Rase-Two's finisher of pulling out a staff from a pool of lava, not unlike 00 Sky's Higher Than Sky Phase's Finsher Move 01. Its taken UpToEleven when this kit was further upgraded into GP-Rase-Two-Ten, the kanji for Ten is Japanese for '''Sky'''.

* RapunzelHair: Her avatar's ponytails reach up to her lower legs.

* PunnyName: Miss Tori sounds a lot like Mystery, does it?

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Her hair is a pale blue, though it's not unheard of in the Gunpla Battle Nexus.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: His online avatar has purple hair. {{Justified|Trope}} by the freely customizable nature of player avatars. [[spoiler:Turns out he's got purple hair [=IRL=] too.]]

* ContrastingSequelProtagonist: Zig-zagged. Unlike Sei and like Reiji and Sekai, Riku is a NaiveNewcomer to Gunpla Battle. On the other hand, he doesn't have the overwhelming talent that Reiji and Sekai have for piloting and he made his Gunpla himself, much like Sei. Also like Sei, Riku's Gunpla is a customized version of a Gundam used by a protagonist of a major Gundam series. Riku also averts the YouGottaHaveBlueHair of previous protagonists, being a normal brunette compared to Reiji's and Sekai's flaming red and Sei's blue.

* ObliquelyObfuscatedOccupation: It's not entirely clear what he's been doing for a living, other than some suggestion he uses his skills to build models on commission. We know from Nanami he did this at least a few times for Gundam Base Tokyo, but that alone doesn't seem like enough work to last the 4 years he's been retired from gunpla it battle tournaments.

* FingerlessGloves: His avatar features black ones.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: His online avatar has purple hair. {{Justified}} by the freely customizable nature of player avatars. [[spoiler:Turns out he's got purple hair [=IRL=] too.]]

* ActionGirl: She's the strongest female fighter of her team compared to Momo who is a NaiveNewcomer and Sarah who doesn't know how to ride a Gunpla. She's also the second most experienced fighter of her after Koichi.

* {{Determinator}}: Riku's definate trait is no matter how tough the stituation is and even when it seems tough or impossible for other, he will never give up and will always find a sloution to every problem.

* NotSoDifferent: He and Do-ji both enter the Mirror Mission at the same time in episode 17. Though antagonistic towards each other initially, once the two have a little time to talk, they find out that they both entered this mission in order to catch up to people they deeply respect, Riku for Yuki, and Ogre for Do-ji. In the end they work together to complete the mission, and have newfound respect for one another, along with Do-ji apologizing for his past behaviors.

* SuperMode: The 00 Diver retains the Trans-Am mode of the original 00 Gundam, enhancing its performance threefold for a short time before weakening due to the loss of GN Particles and energy. In a case of RealityEnsues, it turns out that [[spoiler:because his build isn't that great, the Trans-Am is highly unstable.]]

* WorldOfCardboardSpeech: Gives a nice one to the mercenary in the Providence Gundam [[spoiler:before tearing him apart.]]
-->'''Kyoya''': To be honest, I was somewhat hesitant about this mission. Because I thought there'd be some Mass-Divers who loved GBN. But, that's not how you guys are. I will show no mercy!

* BunnyEarsLawyer: Despite his CampGay status, he's actually quite helpful as he volunteers himself as a navigator for Riku and Yukio. In fact, he's ranked 23rd in the world, essentially making him TheAce in their little circle and he has a Fair Play Award as one of his accomplishments.

* InstantAIJustAddWater: [[spoiler:Dr. Tori claims she came into being spontaneously in the form of a young girl from the system coalescing millions upon millions of points of surplus gunpla and player data. Of course, whether Dr. Tori is telling the truth or not is another question, but even the idea any AI routine would need the kind of data a giant robot fighting game MMO would be polling to gain Sarah's level of apparent sentience, intelligence or empathy seems outlandish. The sequel, however, implies that her level of sentience came from ''somewhere'']].

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: [[spoiler:That mysterious Wings of Light that 00 Diver Ace created? That was all Sarah and the energy feathers that scattered across GBN at the end is putting a majorly heavy strain on the game that threatens to destroy it.]]

* ZettaiRyouiki: Grade-A with her over-knee boots and stockings in her GBN Avatar. [[spoiler:Grade B in her actual school uniform.]]

* TheEveryman: Has no distinctive characteristics and is meant to represent the target demographic.

* DeusExMachina: [[spoiler:Being an AI created within GBN, Sarah seemingly influences various events for our heroes to raise up in their standing. Unsurprisingly, Ogre ends up accusing Riku of cheating when word gets out of what she really is and forces him into a fight to prove he wasn't.]]

* TheAtoner: She admits that being the source code developer of GBN, [[spoiler:the server load caused by Sarah]] is partly her fault and TheReveal that [[spoiler:Break Decals only exist because of her reuse of GPD software elements]] drives her even harder to make things right.
