History Characters / NeptuniaAntagonists

A mysterious girl from the Heartdimension who turns out to be the mastermind behind all of ''VII'''s events. Being the original version of Uzume Tennouboshi, she looks almost identical to her in everything except personality and morality. Once she fuses with the other Dark [=CPUs=], she becomes the powerful yet unstable Dark Orange.

* AchillesHeel: The Swirl Console, her true body after being sealed, and the giant Share Crystal that makes up the core of Heartdimension. Regardless of how powerful Kurome is in her delusional world, destroying either of these will kill her. The only reason why the protagonists don't resort to this is because Uzume will also die alongside her (not that it stops the protagonists from doing it in the normal ending). This weakness is however removed if Heartdimension and Hyperdimension are merged, and it also no longer applies to either of them in the GoldenEnding after their resurrection.

* ApocalypseHow: Similar to Rei from previous game, she attempts to do either Class 5 or 6, a Multiversal one. She intends to fuse both Hyperdimension and Heartdimension into a single apocalyptic dimension under her control.

* BackFromTheDead: In the true ending, the heroes manage to kill her once after beating down her Dark Orange form and destroying the giant Share Crystal in Heartdimension, but she comes back for another round by using Negative Energy to revive herself. Unfortunately for her, that is all she could do left as without the giant Share Crystal, she and Uzume are on their last legs, which leads to her VillainousBreakdown as she attacks them again.
* TheBadGuyWins: She is the first villain in the franchise to outright ''win'' in the BadEnding of a Neptunia game, signifying her status as the most dangerous villain in the franchise to date.
* BigBad: Of the third arc Heartdimension H and the game as a whole.

** While Rei wants to destroy the Gamindustri (both Hyperdimension and Ultradimension) with her sheer power, Kurome wants to destroy the Gamindustri by fusing Hyperdimension and Zerodimension into a single apocalyptic dimension.

** In the Heartdimension H story, she kidnaps and corrupts the main Goddesses with negative energy filled with hatred, forcing them to fight the Candidates.

* DemonicPossession: People consumed by negative emotions are vulnerable to have their bodies being possessed by her, such as C-Sha during Hyperdimension G arc. This only applies when she projects her spirit in Gamindustri from Zerodimension; by Heartdimension H she doesn't need to do this as she becomes able to enter Gamindustri personally through a dimensional hole.
* DimensionLord: She essentially ''is'' the Heartdimension.

* DystopiaJustifiesTheMeans: Her goal is to turn Gameindustri into a living hell as payback for the world's perceived betrayal. She's averse to killing her enemies only because she wants to wants them to suffer when her plan is complete.
* EarlyBirdCameo: She appears briefly in the Zerodimension arc in her original Uzume form while Nepgear's reading some corrupted data, altering it and making Nepgear fall into a half-asleep state when Uzume finds her, leaving Nepgear to brush it off as AllJustADream.
* EvilCannotComprehendGood: After Uzume convinces the Nep sisters to destroy the Heartdimesion's Share Crystal, sacrificing herself to stop the monsters ordered by a dying Kurome to assault Gameindustri, Kurome can't comprehend how Uzume can look so happy when she's also about to die.

** In the prologue of Hyperdimension G, she executes this upon ''almost the entirety of Gamindustri'' to instill the Gold Third as the new leaders of each nation by taking advantage of the CPU Shift Period (the lowered faith of the people) and the negative emotion created when Gold Third unexpectedly defeated the [=CPUs=] beforehand.
** In Heartdimension H, she revealed that sometime after sealing herself and before she grew to hate Gamindustri, Uzume also did this upon the entire Planeptune to erase all trace of herself from history.

* FreudianExcuse: During the middle part of Heartdimension H, she tries to justify her actions by claiming she was treated like a pariah by her own people. But considering her [[{{Sadist}} mental]] [[AxCrazy state]] and [[MetaphoricallyTrue choice]] [[ConsummateLiar of]] [[SoftSpokenSadist words]], it is clear that she really enjoys inflicting pain of her victims, for the sadistic glee.

* TheGhost: Literally and figuratively, because over the course of the Hyperdimension G arc, she spends most of her time as a wandering spirit as her actual physical body is still sealed and Kurome's self is still stuck in her delusional dimension. It's not until she gains enough power to create a dimensional hole that she finally becomes able to appear as herself in Gamindustri.

* GravityMaster: Within the Zerodimension and Heartdimension, she can casually alter the laws of physics, such as increasing the gravity of a location. She did this in Heartdimension H arc to force the protagonists to kneel before her as she announces herself as Uzume Tennouboshi, the CPU of Planeptune.
* TheHeartless: [=CPUs=] gather Share Energy (the belief and admiration of the people) to empower themselves, but after falling into her own delusion of hatred, her power source shifts to Negative Energy (fear, despair, hatred, and other negative emotions). Within her delusion, she gains strength from the despair of the inhabitants of Zerodimension. She is still able to gain Share Energy and use them, but due to her conscience (Uzume) separating from her she is unable to gather Shares by herself anymore, as Shares actually hurts her at direct contact. After Zerodimension and Heartdimension is destroyed though, her power source shifted back to Share Energy.
* {{Irony}}: Kurome boasts about the fact that she exists on Negative Energy, and she is actually hurt if she is touched by Share Energy directly. However, she still needs to use Share Energy in order to manifest in Gamindustri, even her Dark [=CPUs=] cannot manifest without the Share Energy from the delusional goddesses she captured except if Hyperdimension and Heartdimension are merged. Even ''then'', she can only fuse the dimensions due to Rei's CPU power from Croire, which is again empowered by Shares. For extra irony, during the GoldenEnding Kurome boasts that she will exist as long as hatred does before she and Uzume commence their final battle to determine who gets to be revived, even though she no longer benefits by Negative Energy and it is actually Share Energy that will resurrect either of them.

* KnightOfCerebus: Compared to Affimojas and Steamax, as well as the rest of the antagonists from the previous installments, she has little to no comic relief moments and most of her actions are almost always seriously. Once she starts meddling with the protagonists by Hyperdimension G things get worse really fast, and by personally taking action in Heartdimension H it is even possible for her to actually ''win'' in the end. As no other antagonist in the franchise has ever won, this means that Kurome manages to be this for the ''entire franchise''.

* ManipulativeBitch: '''Big time.''' Even though she is just a ghost during the Hyperdimension G story, she is capable of manipulating everyone else, just for her entertainment. Despite making Gold Third the [[PuppetKing "leaders"]] of the four nations, she doesn't hesitate to pull her BatmanGambit and DiabolusExMachina when the time comes. Combine this with her sadistic nature and you have a contender for the most dangerous BigBad of the ''Neptunia'' series.

** During the beginning of Heartdimension H, she once again takes the form of Uzume and pretends to be that character with Neptune and the other [=CPUs=]. After startling the [=CPUs=] by summoning Dark Purple, she proceeds to entrap them in her LotusEaterMachine.

* MookMaker: Within her own delusional dimension, Kurome can create armies of (unintelligent) monsters, the Dark [=CPUs=], and even copies of beings she has encountered, including Arfoire and the [=CPUs=]. She can continue to recreate them so long as she has Negative Energy. Unfortunately for her, they cannot manifest in Hyperdimension unless she has Share Energy (that she can no longer gain by herself) to manifest, or if she manages to merge Heartdimension and Hyperdimension together.

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Kurome becomes able to manifest as a ghost in Gamindustri during Hyperdimension G due to the Share Energy that Neptune brings over to Uzume from Hyperdimension at the end of Zerodimension Z. Eventually, she gains enough to create a portal for her true self to appear in Gamindustri personally.

* TheOlderImmortal: She's a former CPU of Planeptune... as in she predates both Neptune's entire reign and life as well as that of another CPU, Uranus/Caelus. She's old enough to have encountered the Deity of Sin personally and is running for one of the oldest members of the cast, with only Ultradimension Blanc, Ultradimension Rei, Croire, Hyperdimension Histoire, and the Deity of Sin surpassing her.
* OmnicidalManiac: Played with. She explicitly states in Neptune's story of Hyperdimension G arc that she wishes to see all of Gamindustri to suffer, endlessly if possible. In the Heartdimension arc, she admits that she'd rather keep the heroes alive to suffer, but will have to kill them if they keep obstructing her vengeance. This makes her significantly different than most examples, who want to simply end all life.

* RealityWarper: Uzume possesses a unique power that is capable of turning her wishes and delusions into reality. Within her own dimension, [[TheHeartless she is capable of using negative emotions as power source]], and with them, manipulate reality itself by [[MookMaker creating minions powerful enough to distort space-time]] and even casually [[GravityMaster increase the gravity of the world]] to force people to kneel. While outside of her dimension this power is less potent, she is still capable of inducing [[MindRape various]] [[LotusEaterMachine forms]] of delusion to people and [[FakeMemories rewrite their memories]]. If Heartdimension and Hyperdimension were to merge as she planned, she will be able to utilize her powers in Zerodimension within the fused world.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Like Zerodimension Uzume and adult Neptune to Plutia and Peashy respectively, she plays the similar role as the BigBad and TrueFinalBoss, Rei from ''Victory''.
* TakingYouWithMe: After getting defeated, she declares that she's taking Rei's power down with her, and sends a swarm of monsters to wreak havoc on the Hyperdimension in her dying breath, though it's foiled by Uzume's HeroicSacrifice.

* {{Unperson}}: Did this to herself by erasing all memories and records of her existence from Gameindustri after her sealing, claiming that she was just granting their wish of wanting to forget about her. Even Histoire, an artificial being who was [[RippleEffectProofMemory unaffected]] by her CosmicRetcon removing the concept of [=CPUs=], can only vaguely remember working with ''someone'' a long time ago.

* VillainousBreakdown: After getting defeated as Dark Orange, she disappears while desperately screaming about how she hasn't gotten her revenge yet. In the Revival Ending, her sealed body absorbs enough Negative Energy to revive herself, sounding as smug as usual when the protagonists confront her again... until Uzume points out that their sealed body ran out of shares and died since Neptune and Nepgear destroyed the Heartdimension's Share Crystal, leaving the two as mere ghosts who will soon be going to hell together. This completely sends her off the deep end, hysterically refusing to accept her fate, as she resumes her Dark Orange form. Her in-battle quotes have her almost pitifully wailing about not wanting to disappear and lamenting that the world keeps rejecting her.
* TheVoice: She's heard several times throughout the Hyperdimension arc, usually talking to a Gold Third member or Affimojas, but [[UnseenNoMore doesn't actually show up]] ([[MasterOfDisguise at least not in her true form]]) until the Heartdimension arc.

* TheWomanBehindTheMan: All the game's problems trace back to her. Arfoire and the Dark [=CPUs=] plaguing the Zerodimension are her creations, and she causes the CosmicRetcon in the Hyperdimension while [=AffimaX=] were simply accomplices.

A seemingly minor enemy encountered in ''[=Re;Birth3=]'''s exclusive prologue dungeon by Neptune. She shows up in the True ending EndgamePlus plot with social games by terrorizing the Ultradimension with Pay to win games that mind controls the citizens.

* BribingYourWayToVictory: Uses this as a method to control the citizens of the Ultradimension.

* WakeUpCallBoss: You are going to face them as Iris Heart and Yellow Heart ALONE -- providing that DLC characters are not in your party. There is no warning that the battle will initiate, as checking on Ultradimension Planeptune will automatically encounter them.

One of ''[=Re;Birth3=]'''s exclusive bosses. Along with Bamo, the two terrorize the Ultradimension with social games in the True ending EndgamePlus plot.

* ArcVillain: Of Noire's arc during Hyperdimension G, specifically the female Order leader.

* ArcVillain: Of Blanc's arc during Hyperdimension G.

[[quoteright:225:[[labelnote:As Conversation (Superdimension)]]https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/conversation_2.png]]

* CompositeCharacter: Her portrayal in the anime. Her initial plan to string up the [=CPUs=] and strip them of their power resembles the actions of Hyperdimension's ASIC. Creating eggplant minions to torment Neptune is based on Ultradimension Arfoire. Superdimension Arfoire gets a reference in the "Little Purple Sunshine" OVA, where a FountainOfYouth reverts her to her original form from ''[=Re;Birth1=]''. Additionally, her design in the 3rd OVA is based on Chrome from ''Super Neptunia RPG'', whose design, character, and even voice actress was based on the former's original form.

** Zerodimension Arfoire does this with Dark Purple and whatever is left of Rei Ryght's power near the end of the Zerodimension arc.

** While Zerodimension Arfoire has more personality than the average villain of this attitude (being both EvilIsHammy and exasperated at how no one takes her seriously), her ultimate motivation boils down to being an OmnicidalManiac who wants to kill Uzume and destroy the Zero Dimension, and doesn't even seem to register that doing this would end up with her destroyed either. It's not even that [[SuicidalCosmicTemperTantrum she knows and welcomes it]], but she just flat-out ignores it when anyone brings it up. Justified since she's nothing more than Kurome's recollection of Arfoire as the aforementioned Deity of Sin.

* VillainDecay: Superdimension Arfoire is the calm and calculating BigBad, and Hyperdimension Arfoire is a full-on EldritchAbomination. Ultradimension Arfoire, however, was only ever portrayed as a threat when Neptune and Noire couldn't transform, and mostly becomes a joke afterward, especially with the trauma from Iris Heart and resorting to sentient eggplants against Neptune. Zerodimension Arfoire is more competent, but still has a lot of comedic scenes.

** In the BadFuture from where the time-travelling Gray Sister originated, the IS Crystal has powered Arfoire up to Level ''999999'', at the cost of any will or personality other than destroying everything in sight (not much different from her original portrayal in ''mk2'').

!!Superdimension Arfoire (Hyperdimension Neptunia/[=Re;Birth1=]/[=reVerse=])

!!Hyperdimension Arfoire (mk2/[=Re;Birth2=], Sisters)

* EldritchAbomination: Compared to the first game's Arfoire or Ultradimension Arfoire, Deity of Sin is a ''very'' different entity. Being destruction incarnate, she manifests physically by possessing things, and thus is nearly impossible to destroy permanently. When manifesting incompletely she takes the form of a hideous, gigantic monster that looks more like a LivingStatue than human.

* ReusedCharacterDesign: Her CFW Arfoire form is later used for Overlord Momus in ''[[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaReBirth1 Re;Birth1]]''. Her Deity of Sin form is also used for various monsters throughout the franchise as well as [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaVictory Ultradimension Arfoire]]. Meanwhile, both of her forms are later reused as transformations for her [[VideoGame/MegadimensionNeptuniaVII Zerodimension]] incarnation, which turns out to be a copy of the original Deity of Sin.

!!Ultradimension Arfoire (Victory/[=Re;Birth3=])

* OldMaid: Called this by Pirachu. Somehow, this convinces her that she perhaps belongs to the Seven Sages.

* OmnicidalManiac: She never gets to act on it, but when she finally leaves the Seven Sages she comments on how she's always wanted "to destroy all". Pirachu points out how that and the way she's speaking make no sense.
* ToThePain: She threatens to tear out Pirachu's organs and feed them to piranhas while making him watch while he dies.

* VitriolicBestBuds: Whether either will admit it or not, Pirachu and Arfoire actually share this dynamic, and despite their bickering, really are friends, with Pirachu actually willing to stand up to the [=CPUs=] to let Arfoire flee from Plutia. Even the [=CPUs=] were touched by this.

!!Zerodimension Arfoire (VII/VIIR)

A woman dressed like a witch, met in the Zerodimension by Neptune, Nepgear and Uzume. Everything about her is shrouded in mystery except for her goal of plunging the world into destruction.

* AlasPoorVillain: When she's killed off again in the Heartdimension, she goes out pitifully begging Kurome to save her from disappearing. Adult Neptune, who she'd been trying to kill at the time, solemnly bids her farewell while saying her name properly for the first time.

* PowerNullifier: Using Negative Energy, she can block the power of Shares, which allows her to get the advantage on Uzume and company near the climax of the Zerodimension arc. It takes drawing shares from both the monsters of the Zerodimension ''and'' shares from Hyperdimension's Planeptune to overpower her.
* ReusedCharacterDesign: This Arfoire can transform into the OneWingedAngel forms of the previous game's Arfoire, specifically the [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaMk2 Deity of Sin's]], something which both Nepgear and Uni comment on. Ironically, the Deity of Sin's first form has been reused before for [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptunia Overlord Momus]], while its second form has been reused by [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaVictory Ultradimension Arfoire]]. However unlike the previous Arfoires, this trope is justified since this incarnation is just a copy of the Deity of Sin from Kurome's memories.

* VillainousCrush: Has a crush on Compa after she heals him. This extends even to his Ultradimension counterpart, despite the Compa in that world being a ''child''.

!!Hyperdimension Warechu (mk2/[=Re;Birth2=])
* BrickJoke: "Omega Warechu" is a monster that has previously only appeared in the credits of every main series Neptunia game. It actually shows up in ''VII''.

!!Ultradimension Warechu (Victory/[=Re;Birth3=])

* NotSoHarmlessVillain: While he was just part of the QuirkyMiniBossSquad in ''mk2'', his Ultradimension version is part of the [[BigBadDuumvirate Seven Sages]].

* TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: She's apparently recorded ''multiple'' instances of this happening to different worlds.
* EnemyMine: Forms one with Nepgear, Uzume and Adult Neptune against Arfoire at the climax of the Zerodimension arc. She may be willing to watch the destruction of a dimension for [[ForTheEvulz interesting history]], but not when she can die too.

* EvilCounterpart: To Histoire; they're both incredibly old fairy-like beings who ride on books, record history, and assist [=CPUs=]. They even have the same Japanese voice actress. However, while Histoire's duties are passively recording history and protecting peace, Croire seeks to actively mess things up to make history more "interesting", and will align herself with shady figures like Rei, Zerodimension Arfoire, and Kurome to achieve her twisted pleasures.

* {{Irony}}: Her role in ''Victory'' is to stir trouble and watch from afar as to how it unfolds. In the True Ending, ''she's'' the one who gets trapped by Ultradimension Neptune in a bottle to be examined as a specimen. Doubles as a LaserGuidedKarma.

* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: In the Good Ending of ''Victory'', she makes off with Rei's leftover power to start more trouble in some other dimension where Neptune and her friends can't reach her. In the True Ending, she returns to the Ultradimension, only to get caught by its resident Neptune.

* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: She first met Rei the moment she obliviously ate a CPU Memory... which was ''tens of thousands of years ago''. It's not even clear if she's originally from the Ultradimension.
* SadisticChoice: During the Heartdimension route of the game's final chapter, she offers two different decisions to the [=CPUs=]: if they leave Uzume, the whole Hyperdimension will be screwed. On the other hand, if they decided to save Hyperdimension, the Heartdimension will be gone for good. However, both Neptunes decide [[TakeAThirdOption to choose a third option instead]]: [[SaveBothWorlds save both dimensions]] and [[EarnYourHappyEnding earn the Happy Ending]].

* HeelFaceTurn: By the end of the game, [[spoiler:all of the Sages except for Arfoire (who just gives up on outright villainy) and [[EnemyMine maybe Anonydeath]] undergoes one. Abnes defects when she finds out what the Sages are really up to, Copypaste's reprogrammed personality allows hiim to befriend the main characters, Warechu doesn't so much defect as just blindly obey any request Compa makes, Badd quits so he can lead a normal life with his "daughters" (and tries to make amends by turning them back to human), Peashy regains her memories, and the two versions of Rei have some sense permanently slapped into them, with Ultradimension Rei finally learning to contain her HDD form instead of suppressing it]].

The weak-willed leader of the Seven Sages in the Ultradimension. She has a Hyperdimension counterpart who's also an anti-CPU activist.

* CompositeCharacter: In the anime that does feature the Ultradimension, HDD Rei and her lost nation appear to be native to the Hyperdimension, whereas Hyperdimension Rei in the game was an ordinary woman before Croire showed up.

* DimensionalTraveler: A unique trait to her [=CPU=] powers compared to normal, she's able to distort and pierce through to other dimensions. She created the hole between the Hyperdimension and Ultradimension to send Neptune away. Hyperdimension Rei was utterly elated when she found out she was the one who made the Goddess go away after that.

* FromNobodyToNightmare: When Rei gets her HDD form, her personality completely changes from a timid woman to an AxCrazy tyrant. The Hyperdimension Rei [[OmnicidalManiac goes even further]].

* WorldsStrongestWoman: Rei is the strongest individual in the ''Neptunia'' series, bar none. A Goddesses' power is derived from their followers; the more followers they have, the more power they have. No followers gives the Goddess a power of absolutely zero. Ultradimension Rei managed to put up an impressive showing with no followers at all, while the only Goddess who has a similar amount of experience, Blanc, was reduced to a powerless little girl with no followers. Things only take a turn for the worse once Hyperdimesion Rei gain followers, becoming the most powerful of all of the [=CPUs=] from both dimensions, dwarfing even her Ultradimension self.

!!Hyperdimension Rei

* GhostMemory: Hyperdimension Rei ends up getting the memories of the Ultradimension Rei mixed with her own when she receives her powers. The sudden addition of several thousand years of memory from a completely different world are implied to be why she's so much further off the deep end than the one she received the power from.

!!Ultradimension Rei

* ApocalypseHow: Ultradimension Rei caused a Regional Class 2, [[OmnicidalManiac Hyperdimension Rei]] attempts a Multiversal one, Class 5 or 6.
* TheAtoner: In the True Ending, Ultradimension Rei finally learns to take responsibility for her actions and came to rescue Iris Heart from her power trying to posses the latter. She also reforms the Seven Sages into a better organization.

* BigBad: Her Ultradimension counterpart serves as this, as she is responsible for [[MediaNotes/TheGreatVideoGameCrashOf1983 The Great Crash]] that lead to the death of her citizens as well as forming a group dedicated to eliminating the goddesses.

* CurbStompBattle: Dishes this out to the three CPU goddesses of the Hyperdimension Gamindustri in the Good Ending Route.

* MyFutureSelfAndMe: Inverted. Ultradimension Rei is the past version of the Hyperdimension Rei, apparently; the former aids the latter.

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: In the True Ending, Rei arrives after her Hyperdimension counterpart is defeated to try talking some sense into her. Not only does it fall on deaf ears, but she simply gives Croire the opportunity to steal her remaining power and pass it off to her still hostile counterpart. The [=CPUs=] call her out for just making the situation worse.
* TheOlderImmortal: Out of all the Goddesses in the game, Neptune and her crew from the Hyperdimension would most likely be the oldest, followed by Blanc from the Ultradimension, who appears to be a few centuries old. Vert, Peashy, and Noire don't top more than a few decades. Rei, on the other hand, is ''several thousand years old'', having been a Goddess for far longer than any of the main characters. She has the power to show it.
* OldMaid: Approaching her 30s, and claims to be too old to marry. Or more specifically for Ultradimension Rei ''was'' approaching her 30s, and is now simply stuck looking that way despite being several thousand years old.

* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: Ultradimension Rei is the oldest goddess no less, by her own count anywhere between thousands and tens of thousands of years old.
* RePower: She sent a fragment of her power over to the Hyperdimension timeline, who sends some of the power back to her and she gets HDD again, though apparently she's nowhere near as strong as she no longer has any worshippers.
* SuperPrototype: Ultradimension Rei was the very first Goddess in her timeline apparently. She's also one of the strongest characters in the Neptunia universe story-wise.
* TerribleArtist: After she is defeated in the Ultradimension universe and her personality returns to normal, Rei attempts to provide background on how she became a [=CPU=]. To aid her, she provides a visual aid she drew, except the art is so incomprehensible to everyone, even to the player much to Neptune's concern, that all anyone can do is laugh at it. This is used as an HilariousOuttake in the anime. Also doubles as a reference to Creator/YuuKobayashi's "drawings".
* TookALevelInBadass: Hyperdimension Rei gained her badassery after Croire gives her powers from the Ultradimension Rei, who in turn sent some of that power back so that one could regain hers. To put it simply, they ''ping-pong'ed'' this trope.

* VillainousRescue: In the true end Plutia tries to dominate Rei's power after beating it out of Hyperdimension Rei, and was quickly failing and at risk of having their combined power and madness. After Neptune implies she's ready to MercyKill Plutia if she fails, Ultradimension Rei steps in and takes her power back and finally gets control over it.

* TheCape: Before joining the Seven Sages, Abness would normally go around the world protecting little girls.

* EvilOldFolks: While not old per se, he's stated to be in his late 50s or so. He also works for a criminal organization devoted to doing away with every and all [=CPUs=] in the Ultradimension, in addition to being an EvilGenius.

* TheStoic: All of them, except of Fake Green Heart, are less expressive than their prototypes, but still retain their eccentric characteristics while maintaining a calm expression. This is especially noticable in Blanc's case, as she's normally that trope until she gets mad.

The antagonists of the Hyperdimenion G Arc. They're fundamentally bloggers who profit from the general disarray caused by Gamindustri's CosmicRetcon.

* ArcVillain: The overall one of the Hyperdimension G arc. While the individual CPU story arcs have their own separate villains for each set of heroes to tackle, it is Affimojas and his organization [=AffimaX=] who profit the most from the chaos of the Gamindustri rewrite, he is the one spearheading the retrieval of the Swirl Console parts hidden within the four nations for the BigBad, and he's the one the [=CPUs=] must defeat in order to restore Hyper Dimension to normal.

* BigDamnHeroes: [[spoiler:In the Hyperdimension route of Heart Dimension arc, he manages to steal the console away from Kurome]].

* EarlyBirdCameo: He's first seen during Neptune's Hyperdimension interlude during the Zero Dimension arc, buying some books for Affimojas.

* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:He turns a little earlier than Affimojas, offering to help the [=CPUs=] with dealing with the dark aura in the Hyperdimension G arc]].

Resembling the [=CPUs=] of the four main nations, these four gigantic humanoids are omnipotent but mindless brutes who have ravaged the Zerodimension and all of the civilians who inhabited it. Their mere presence tears up the fabric of time and space.

* FusionDance: [[spoiler:Arfoire fused with Dark Purple serves as the final boss of the Zerodimension arc. The finale has Kurome fuse with all four of them to become Dark Orange]].

* SkippableBoss: The StoryBranching late in the Heartdimension H arc leads to Dark Black being skipped in the Heartdimension path or Dark White being skipped in the Hyperdimension path. However, ''VIIR'' simply puts the Heartdimension path after the Hyperdimension path, making both mandatory.

* SparedByTheAdaptation: In the True End to ''[=Re;Birth1=]'' , Neptune is able to successfully save her from her corruption and bring her home to give her a chance to redeem herself.

* ReusedCharacterDesign: This Arfoire can transform into the OneWingedAngel forms of the previous game's Arfoire, specifically the [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaMkII Deity of Sin's]], something which both Nepgear and Uni comment on. Ironically, the Deity of Sin's first form has been reused before for [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaRebirth1 Overlord Momus]], while its second form has been reused by [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaVictory Ultradimension Arfoire]]. However unlike the previous Arfoires, this trope is justified since this incarnation is just a copy of the Deity of Sin from Kurome's memories.

* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: The "death" part in Anonydeath is already a sign that he's ''not'' a good person. The "Anony" part of his name could count, if you consider the group Anonymous.

* JekyllAndHyde: An accurate description when comparing her and Uzume, with Uzume being the good one and Kurome being the bad one. {{Justified}}, because they are the same person.
