History Characters / ThePromise

* BoobsOfSteel: As a youkai, she constantly uses her youki to augment her physical strength, in addition to whatever abilities she has normally. And as a [[ShapeshiftingLover kitsune]] in particular, her human form comes with a rack.

* {{Bishonen}}

* {{Bishonen}}: Well, he takes after his mom.

* {{Bishonen}}

* TheChick

* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: He's the ruler of Byakko because he's the most powerful youkai in the entire region.
** AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Granted, the reverse also applies.

* SpamAttack: He uses the [[TeleportSpam Hiraishin]] more than a hundred times during the fight with Madara, combining it with [[EverythingsBetterWithSpinning the Rasengan]] and even inventing a new variation of the latter on the spot.

* SupremeChef: Taken UpToEleven--she manages to earn the undying loyalty of a clan of fox youkai by feeding them inarizushi and atsuage, and later pulls off much the same thing with dog youkai.

* {{Youkai}}: ''[[UpToEleven Taiyoukai]]''.

* [[BigBrotherBully Little Sister Bully]]: Umeko was ''not'' nice to Haruki when they were growing up.

* RantInducingSlight: Being told that she's heavy for a kunoichi, then later finding out that she weighs more than Itachi does. It's sort of like her BerserkButton.
* ShockAndAwe

* {{Kitsune}}: The only nine-tailed example in the series aside from the Kyuubi. [[spoiler:And ultimately, the only ''real'' one.]]
** MasterofIllusion: To the point that he can see through everyone else's, too. And then he passed that immunity on.
** PlayingWithFire

* {{Kitsune}}: A black one. [[spoiler:More specifically, her and her siblings' natures foreshadow which of them die. White, black, and nine-tailed foxes are considered lucky in Myth/JapaneseMythology--[[PluckyGirl Nariko]], [[ShrinkingViolet Haruki]], and [[DeadpanSnarker Umeko]] are black, white(ish) and red, respectively, and all of them have four tails or fewer. Umeko dies first. Since white is the color of death in Japan, Haruki dies next. Nariko, with [[FourIsDeath four tails]], black coloring, and a lot of extra help, [[SurvivedTheBeginning manages to survive the prologue]].]]

* {{Kitsune}}: A white one.

* RapunzelHair: In a braid, at any rate.

* RapunzelHair
** ExpositoryHairstyleChange: Not long after she's first introduced, she decides to cut her hair back to more manageable levels--hip-length is a bit too long for a close-combat fighter.

** RapunzelHair

* RapunzelHair: Tied back a little, granted, but it's still at least knee-length.

* [[YouGottaHaveBlueHair You Gotta Have Green Hair]]

* FingerlessGloves: Of various stripes.

* FingerlessGloves

* StuffedIntoTheFridge: [[DefiedTrope Defied]]. Kabuto is given a beatdown for the attempt.

* {{Adorkable}}: While on a date with Ayame.

* {{Adorkable}}

** EveryGirlIsCuterWithHairDecs: She has huge green ribbons in her hair.

* EveryGirlIsCuterWithHairDecs: She wears a blue ribbon in her hair.

* PurpleEyes

* EyesOfGold

* EyesOfGold

* EyesOfGold

* EyesOfGold: Again, a reference to the fact that she's a kitsune (or at least half).

* EyesOfGold

* EyesOfGold

* EyesOfGold

* {{Kuudere}}: Though she sometimes reacts like a complete fangirl when the object of her affections--which used to switch often--is in sight.

!!''{{Naruto}}'' characters within ''The Promise'' feature these tropes:

* AwakeningTheSleepingGiant: He's the most powerful neutral faction in any given conflict, even just on his own. It's generally a bad idea to annoy him, because he's capable of singlehandedly wrecking any known organization in the ''{{Naruto}}'' universe.

* BadlyBatteredBabysitter: [[spoiler:When you're looking after [[{{Naruto}} Naruto and Sasuke]], this kind of thing is expected. And justified.]]

* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: Yukihana, as a yuki-onna who lives alone in the middle of one of the coldest inhabitable regions in the ''{{Naruto}}'' world, is looking for someone who can live with her in those conditions. Team Seven instead convinces her to follow them to Konoha, where (upon realizing that Kakashi has a girlfriend), [[IChooseToStay she finds someone to stay for.]]

* UnusualEyebrows: Hers are shaped more like slightly elongated black dots than anything. It's an ''{{Okami}}'' reference.

* BrownEyes

* {{Badass}}

* WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer: She can't use chakra due to the fact that she hasn't got any, so she relies on her youkai powers to keep her edge in a world full of [[KungFuWizard supernatural]] [[InstantAwesomeJustAddNinja ninjas]].

* MyDeathIsJustTheBeginning: [[spoiler:Killing her meant that she could direct all of her dying, pent-up youki to lay a pair of curses on Madara. First, [[PrincessMononoke her head comes off and bites the guy's arm off]]. And then it's revealed that the ''actual'' curse was that he couldn't leave the village. Considering that he's already pissed off Minato and he suddenly can't pull off his own teleporting technique, it's just a matter of time before he gets killed.]]

* NonuniformUniform: The only thing consistent about their outfits and those of the rest of the Konoha-nin? The fact that all of them wear a chuunin vest. Kei's is the closest to bog-standard, while Asahina's is the wildest. Nori's even has DetachedSleeves to go along with it. Also, each one of them wears a dark blue bracelet on one wrist.

* AscendedExtra: Originally a filler character from the Konoha History arc in ''NarutoShippuden''.

* FragileSpeedster: As the team medic-nin, she's generally expected to get the hell away from the fighting long enough to help the injured. She tends not to have many mass-destruction techniques as a result.

[[folder:InuYasha Canon Good Guys]]
!!''{{Inuyasha}}'' characters from ''The Promise'' feature these tropes.

* OneSteveLimit: Defied. This Rin is the one from ''{{Inuyasha}}'' canon and is married to Sesshoumaru. She thinks the naming coincidence with the medic-nin is rather funny.

Youngest son of the youkai lord [[{{Inuyasha}} Sesshoumaru]], Sanyu is a powerhouse at slightly more than two hundred years old. He's by no means the strongest of his father's children, owning a [[HealingShiv healing sword]] rather than his older siblings' WMD-class weapons, but he can hold his own in any fight he's been in so far. [[spoiler:Even against [[BigBad Madara]].]]

Youngest daughter of the youkai lord [[{{Inuyasha}} Sesshoumaru]], Amaya is the calm, composed child to Sanyu's relatively boisterous nature. She is just as powerful as her brother and, occasionally, crueler. But despite her icy demeanor, she can be kind and polite in the correct circumstances. [[spoiler:And she can take on [[BigBad Madara]] where even the most powerful human characters fail, despite being a full century younger than Nariko.]]

* {{Kitsune}}: A black one. [[spoiler:More specifically, her and her siblings' natures foreshadow which of them die. White, black, and nine-tailed foxes are considered lucky in JapaneseMythology--[[PluckyGirl Nariko]], [[ShrinkingViolet Haruki]], and [[DeadpanSnarker Umeko]] are black, white(ish) and red, respectively, and all of them have four tails or fewer. Umeko dies first. Since white is the color of death in Japan, Haruki dies next. Nariko, with [[FourIsDeath four tails]], black coloring, and a lot of extra help, [[SurvivedTheBeginning manages to survive the prologue]].]]
