** All of his duels with Suletta , potentially barring the second one,are softened by the fact that Aeril Is the most advanced suit in the show by a wide margin ,with abilities that can't be counters by skill alone. [[spoiler:The fact that he can damage Suletta and Aeiral more than Norea and Sophie could together is impressive by itself]]

* CurbStompCushion: A lot of Girls loses are softened by him facing off againts gundams using inferior suits.

* CurbStompCushion: In his duel with Elan, Guel is on the backfoot throughout the entire fight due to the vast difference in suit performance as well as having to once again face down against bit weapons. Despite this he manages to hold out against the Pharact's stun beams for quite a while, only losing when he flies into a cloud of statically charged regolith that Elan lured him into.

** [[spoiler:In Episode 17, he has his third duel against Suletta and holds hold his own against her and Aeria for a while, even managing to gan the advantage despite suffering from PTSD throughout the fight. He only starts to lose when Aerial hits Permet Score 8 and takes control of his weapons.]]

* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: As the second cour goes on, his treatment of Suletta shifts in this direction. Though she considers him a friend and understands his feelings towards her, she only truly loves Miorine, and he knows this. Hence, though he does show regret for never really having had a chance with her, he still does everything he can to make sure she has a good life. This is most visible in [[spoiler:the aftermath of their last duel, where, upon returning the Holder's Mark to her (actively ensuring she will marry Miorine), he smiles and privately laments his own foolishness]].

* TroubledAbuser: He lives under the thumb of his abusive and controlling father, and he is an abusive, controlling fiance to Miorine while he's the Holder.

* BigManOnCampus: How he's first introduced and presented as in Episode 1, with him being the (then) current Holder who is the heir of a rich and powerful corporation and demands respect from everyone around him. No longer the case at the end of the episode when he loses to Suletta.

* ADayInTheLimelight: Episodes 5 and 6 are largely focused on Elan and gives the audience insight on his status as an Enhanced Person, his combat skills, his relationship to Peil Technologies, and his sudden and fierce hatred of Suletta. [[spoiler:Episode 6 also ends with Enhanced Person Number Four being disposed of by Peil for having reached the end of his useful life as a pilot and his failure to carry out their orders.]]

* NoBodyLeftBehind: [[spoiler:When he gets vaporized, it is indicated that there would be nothing left of him.]]

* PrettyBoy: Their fair and boyish looks are very easy on the eyes.* RecurringElement: Episode 5 establishes that "Elan Ceres" is the series take on the "Cyber-Newtype" archetype started by [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Four Murasame]]. He is an ArtificialHuman treated more as a thing than as a person by his superiors and seems like an attractive AcePilot at glance, but is actually very damaged inside. The difference is that while most characters of this archetype are torn apart from the heroes they like by circumstance, Elan #4 ends up ''rejecting'' Suletta by his own choice after he comes to understand he and she are NotSoSimilar. [[spoiler:Like Four, however, Elan #4 meets a tragic fate shortly after he and Suletta share one last heartwarming moment together, and Elan #5 inverts it a little, as he's the one to reach out to Norea shortly before she dies instead of being the recipient of her kindness and dying like #4 did and most "Cyber-Newtype" characters do.]]

* CoverIdentityAnomaly: For all the effort that goes into making them ''look'' identical to the original Elan, they're seemingly never instructed to ''act'' like the original Elan. #5 being just as scummy as him was deliberately selected for by Peil Technology, #4 was his complete opposite, and there's no telling what the other three were like. Having no knowledge of Enhanced Person turnover rates, their fellow students assume Elan just has a habit of changing personalities out of nowhere.

* TheBadGuyWins: [[spoiler:Shaddiq gets everything he wants at the cost of his freedom. Earth becomes a power on par with the spacians at the end of the series.]]

* BackForTheFinale: [[spoiler:Appears as a Permet ghost within the data storm of Quiet Zero, allowing Suletta to weather the Permit feedback in order to contact Eri.]]

* TakingTheHeat: [[spoiler:In Episode 21, he tells Miorine that he's fine taking the blame for everything he's done if it means that his teammates in Grassley House don't take any of the blowback from what he's done.]]

* DidIJustSayThatOutLoud: Whatever his true feelings, it becomes obvious as Episode 4 progresses that Guel did not mean to propose to Suletta and got caught up in the moment.

* TookALevelInKindness: [[spoiler: Becomes this after fleeing Peil. Shown to be genuine after he risks his life for Noreas sake.]]

* AcePilot: Proves to be this without using the Gund-Format. [[spoiler: None of his suits take any damage despite being attacked viciously.]]
** [[spoiler:Even when Norea and her Mobile Suit AttackDrones force him to fight back he manages just fine without raising his Permet Score.]]

* AcePilot: Proves to be this without using the Gund-Format. [[spoiler: None of his suits take any damage despite being attacked viciously]]

* CoolBigBro: The reason why Lauda is [[UndyingLoyalty very loyal]] to Guel and would turn a blind eye when his brother was a {{JerkJock}} back then? When Guel and Lauda met for the first time when they were children, he wholeheartedly accepted Lauda without hesitation and treated him as his full blooded brother instantly. Even as they grew up, one of the main reasons that Guel came back to space was he is also concerned that his brother might be suffering for the sake of the company.
