* LargeHam: Watch shout "PANZEEEEEEEEEEER!" while driving straight through a bad guy's gate.

%%* BattleCouple: [[spoiler: With Mibu.]]

%%* OfficialCouple

%%* ActionGirl
%%* BattleCouple: She fights alongside [[spoiler: Takeaki]].

* UnwittingPawn: Was brainwashed by Blanche.

%%* TheGadfly: When he's feeling playful.
* GadgeteerGenius: He invents a lot of interesting CAD's that prove to be useful for his friends, such as the flying spell Miyuki uses during the Nine Schools competition.

* BatmanGambit: After a demoralizing incident during the [=NSC=], she orders the team's technician, Tatsuya, to go into their tent and comfort them. Tatsuya [[HeroicSociopath doesn't know how to do that]], and he's scared that he might accidentally make them feel worse, so in the end he decides to just work as normal inside the tent and not mention the incident at all. This is exactly what Mayumi intended, [[StiffUpperLip because seeing someone who (they thought) was calm made the team calm down]].

* TermsOfEndangerment: When Miyuki was young and foolish, she once tried to command him to [[JapanesePronouns treat her with more intimacy]]. Tatsuya obeyed- because he ''had'' to- but the way he did terrified her so much she fled from the room apologizing.

* CelibateHero: Justified. He can't feel strong emotions like love.

* TheTease: After they get engaged, he deliberately flirts with Miyuki because he finds her flustered-ness cute.

* ALessonLearnedTooWell: They made it so Tatsuya would ([[MoralityPet probably]]) not destroy the world because of emotional extremes. However, he may now destroy the world because he is sociopathic.

* ATragedyOfImpulsiveness: They panicked when they realized [[PersonOfMassDestruction what]] was gestating in Miya's womb, so they created a second, slightly less apocalyptically-powerful child to follow the first one around and control it. Unfortunately, no one is around to control ''that'' one.

* GoalInLife: His dream is to develop Gravity Control-Type Thermonuclear Fusion Reactor so that Magicians won't be treated as mere weapons.

* GunFu: In anime episode 16 to destroy Masaki's Air Bullets.

* BarrierWarrior: Her series specializes in creating heat resistant barriers.

* BlessedWithSuck: As a genetically improved magician, she has an incredible magical talent, beauty and physical strength that can match the best noble magicians in Japan, but because she was genetically improved, her life span was cut several times and she was doomed to be a "slave" "for all this short life.
* CombatPragmatist: [[spoiler:In volume 23, she stops Mari from interfering Tatsuya's fight against Katsuto by pulling out a handgun against her.]]

The youngest grandson of Retsu, he is born from Makoto and his younger sister. His magic power is one of the most powerful of his generation but he can't use it constantly due to his tendency towards weakness.

* IllBoy: He is sick and spends a lot of time bedridden, unable to show his great magic power. It is either because of a defect in his genetic modification or because of inbreeding.

* PrettyBoy: He is so amazingly beautiful that Tatsuya immediately begins to suspect that he is a genetically improved magician. Moreover, according to others, only Miyuki can compare with it in beauty. [[spoiler: Later in the 16 th volume, this phenomenon is referred to as proof that the ideal beauty Miyuki is the result of a genetic intervention]].

%%* LargeHam: "PANZEEEEEEEEEEER!"
* MadeOfIron: Can take a whole lot of physical punishment. He even survived being hit by a motorcycle once.

* SuperSoldier: He is the third generation of the [[spoiler:Burg Folge, Fortress Series]], explaining his [[MadeOfIron insane durability]].

%%* ActionGirlfriend: [[spoiler: To Kirihara]]

* UnwantedHarem: In his case, it's an [[CluelessChickMagnet Unnoticed]] Harem. Aside from Miyuki and Honoka, Tatsuya gets borderline romantic moments with Mayumi, Erika and Pixie; all of whom have expressed interest in him on different points of the series.

%%* ChickMagnet
%%* ChildSoldier

* RageAgainstTheReflection: Her upcoming ArrangedMarriage forces her to mentally confront some problems that she would really rather not.

* RoleReprisal: Was played by Saori Hayami in the Audio drama CD.

* SpoiledSweet: Although because of the status of the guard of her brother, Miyuki does not have to treat him well, yet she tries to devote her whole life to him, even though sometimes it takes quite strange forms...

* {{Tsundere}}: Type B combined with ObliviousToLove by Tatsuya. Miyuki progresses as a tsundere with the development of history, becoming more pronounced example of such characters after the [[spoiler:16th volume, when her no longer needed to hide their feelings after her declaration of love and engagement with Tatsuya.]] So, as Tatsuya for obvious reasons, can not respond to her feelings, at least for the moment, Miyuki often have to show tsun-tsun at appearance of the other girls, who may be a potential love interest of her brother, especially Honoka or Mayumi.

* {{Warhawk}}: She does not see anything wrong with martially forcing people to do (what she thinks) the right thing. Coupled with her impatience, this means that she must often be restrained from 'solving' every conflict in her life with violence.

* YamatoNadeshiko: She is the embodiment of this.

* PersonOfMassDestruction: As a Strategic Class magician. [[spoiler: His strongest magic "Material Burst" is capable of converting matter to energy according to Einstein's E=MC^2 equation. In theory he could vaporize the Earth.]]
** Taken {{Up To Eleven}} when {{Word Of God}} even states this. [[note]]There is no upper limit to how much energy material burst can convert. If the object's structure is somewhat uniform the energy can be converted indefinitely. Here, "uniform structure" doesn't mean that its components are uniform, but that there's no functional complexity, as there is in gears, circuit boards, the organs of higher-functioning beings, and dividing. For example even objects like small planes, over which various minerals are spread out unevenly, are uniform in structure in the sense that they are "a lump of minerals". And so, if Tatsuya is able to merely to perceive it - even if its a tiny planet - he can convert it to energy and eliminate it. Meaning that he can decompose an entire planet and convert it into energy for Material Burst, capable of destroying an entire galaxy.[[/note]]

** CurbStompBattle: Tatsuya disables Masaki in [[BadassFingersnap one]] [[OneHitKill hit]], George falls shortly after and they end up winning Monolith Code 3-0.

** Tatsuya's Flash Cast. The Crimson Prince falls to his knees and slumps unconscious to the ground with Tatsuya victorious after he used Flash Cast on him during Monolith Code.

* OhCrap: The look on Masaki's face after Tatsuya recovers from his illegal airstrike is absolute fear. He was so petrified with fear he could not move.

* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Has the same name as Zhou Yu Gong Jin, an admiral of the Wu country in RomanceOfTheThreeKingdoms. Known as Shuu Yu in Japan.

HeterosexualLifePartners: With George. Even when he's naked bathing George is no more than 5 feet from him.

%%* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Shinkurou.

%%* OneHitKill: Rupture.

* {{Hypocrite}}:
** In the Conference arc, Tatsuya says that the magical community does not enforce ArrangedMarriage[=s=] (only [[PeerPressure encourage]] them). This prompts Mari to ask how much choice Tatsuya and his sister had in who they were married to.

* JerkassBall: Although the author mostly tries to portray Tatsuya as a NiceGuy and a very pacifist man, sometimes he gets demonstratively cynical or pro-nationalistic scenes only so that the development of the arc does not go along a peaceful path, and Tatsuya reminded about his "emotionless" to the reader.

* DesignerBabies: [[spoiler:Miyuki was created artificially as Tatsuya's sister, So that she can restrain his strength with the help of her outstanding magical abilities and stop him if necessary. In consequence, although she has the same parents as Tatsuya, their genes are different enough that incest between them could result in a healthy offspring.]]

* HopelessSuitor:She's fully aware that Tatsuya doesn't see her as someone of the opposite sex since [[BrotherSisterIncest they are blood-related]]. [[spoiler:She is then informed that she is going to be married to Tatsuya when she becomes the head of the Yotsuba family, much to her '''extreme approval and happiness'''. And although she seems quite happy with the fact that, technically, it is still his sister, Miyuki sad every time when the others have questioned "legend" about of their cousins status.]]

* InformedAttractiveness: Everyone calls her the one of the most beautiful girls and even her own brother has repeatedly noted her spectacular beauty. She looks very perfect, that later gets his explanation, [[spoiler: she is "improved" magician, so her body was maximally improved through genetic engineering.]] (and when seen from a Japanese perspective it's true since she is the good example of Japanese beauty, in other words RavenHairIvorySkin).

* ImpliedLoveInterest:Along with what has been said above, Miyuki is strongly implied as one of such heroines. She from the very beginning is next to Tatsuya and despite the fact that they are siblings and he does not see a woman in it, together they share most of the romantic moments in the series. Moreover, as the only close person in his life and as the only girl to whom he can have strong feelings, it is Miyuki who is jealous of him towards other girls.

* PatientChildhoodLoveInterest: subverted: Although Tatsuya is her own brother and is always with her, for a long time she simply enjoyed his presence and at least thought that she did not really need a real incestuous relationship with him. However, the family and girls in the new school think differently.

* SexIsEvilAndIAmHorny: The main reason she attacks Tatsuya in the first volume is because he either doesn't reciprocate her attraction to him or he does [[GreenEyedMonster but hides it better than she does]]. So not only is she perverted but she is ''alone'' in her perversion.

-->Voiced by: TakumaTerashima

* ExperiencedProtagonist: He is still training and becoming stronger but he was already one of the strongest magicians at the start of the story.

* HumbleHero: Despite his strength and his talents he thinks he is nothing special.

* ADayInTheLimelight: In The Ojou-sama's Magnificent Day Off.

* AMotherToHerMen: Mayumi cares about the welfare men who positioned as her potential love interest. In particular, she helps promote Tatsuya and acts as a support usually taciturn and quiet Katsuto.

* TheGift: Considered as a genius born once in every ten years at remote precision Magic. And is a direct descendant from the Ten Master Clans.

* EvilCounterpart: Many of her traits are Tatsuya's taken to truly villainous extremes- playful teasing becomes sadistic disregard manipulation of people's lives, bitterness towards abusers becomes bitterness towards '''everyone''', withholding information out of distrust instead of misguided independence, etc.
* EvilMatriarch: Subverted. She is not the real mother of Tatsuya and Miyuki, but being their aunt and Tatsuya's foster mother, she plays this role with every new arc more and more. In particular, [[spoiler: she deliberately organizes his engagement with [[RoyalInbreeding his own sister]] to make Tatsuya a prisoner of the clan and turn them both into a target for other clans and foreign powers. She even hopes that they do not fall in love with each other, just because otherwise there will be no conflict in their ArrangedMarriage .]]

* IgnoreTheFanservice[=/=]NotDistractedByTheSexy: [[spoiler: See above as to why.]]

* CursedWithAwesome: Being recruited into the Competition. Though an honor, it creates emptily courteous social situations where the other competitors know that he's magically inferior to them and he knows that they know this, but both have to ''act'' like they don't. Also, Masaki (accidentally) shot him.

* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: It's hinted that it's no coincidence Tatsuya was born into the family he was, at the time he was. (Especially superstitious Yotsuba believe he's punishment for what they did to the Dahan.) Since ''Mahouka'''s setting is Shintoist in nature, this implication means less 'yay, we're saved', than 'try not to piss off the dragon'.

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: When the Yotsuba asked for help with killing Maya's rapists, the Ichijou said 'No'. The Yotsuba said 'Okay', ''and never trusted anyone again''. This is one reason why present-day Yotsuba are betraying the other clans.

* Hypocrite: Their treatment of Tatsuya is similar to how {{Muggles}} treated the first magicians, [[HistoryRepeats centuries ago]].

* WeUsedToBeFriends: The Yotsuba were allied with both Dahan and the Ichijou Clan...then one group kidnapped their daughter and the other didn't lift a finger to help.

* WardensAreEvil: [[spoiler: A side story reveals that one of the trainings for Yotsuba magicians was to guard [[TheAlcatraz a volcanic island prison]] [[BlackSitewhere very dangerous individuals are held.]]]]
