!!Elf Hunters
[[folder:In General]]
* BadassCrew: For better or for worse, Junpei, Airi, and Ritsuko [[spoiler:and later Celcia]] are a team. Junpei can kick people across a town, [[ATwinkleInTheSky literally]], Ritsuko has a [[MegaNeko Neko]] [[TankGoodness Tank]] and an arsenal of military-grade weapons and equipment, and Airi is a master strategist.
* ButNowIMustGo: [[spoiler:Ultimately the fate of the Elf Hunters sans Celcia at the end of the sequel manga]]
* PaperFanOfDoom: the women in the main cast, usually directed at Junpei (or any male too obsessed with the Elf Hunters quest), although Junpei himself uses it to prevent an uncomfortable old man homoerotic moment.
* SexySantaDress: All the girls who act as Santa for temp jobs.
* SpannerInTheWorks: The elf hunters become this when an evil sorceress holds the entire world hostage as her magic, which can burn anyone at whim, does not work on those from the outside world.
[[/folder]]




to:

* AnimeHair: With hair that defies the laws of gravity.
* BadassNormal: Since many of his opponents are supernatural or magical in nature.
* BareFistedMonk
* TheBigGuy: Played completely straight.
* CatchPhrase: At least in the dub, Junpei says, "This is why I hate fantasy stories!"
** In the original manga, and it's "Freaking fantasy world!".
** "Forgive me for stripping you!"
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: Junpei has incredible strength and speed from all his training and, as he put is, a natural talent for fighting.
* ChickMagnet: Several of the elves end up falling for Junpei, they even willingly strip because of it. Celica and Ritsuko also have a clear crush on him. In the manga the Elf Rebecca even stole all the fragments they had gathered because she didn't want Junpei to be sent home.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Be very afraid when Junpei finally stops fooling around and fights seriously.
* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulu: Played very straight in the Christmas episode. Junpei kicks Satan up a chimney when he offers the group [[DealWithTheDevil a deal]].
* IdiotHero: Though how dumb varies between the manga and anime. For example in the manga he finds the portal to the mermaid temple by himself, while in the anime he needed Airi's help. Similarly in the manga Junpei explains Heliocentrism to Celcia on his own, while he asks Airi to give the explanation in the anime.
* IGaveMyWord: Junpei takes his fighter's honour very seriously. It actually wins over some of the elves they meet in their journey.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold
* LightningBruiser
* NotSoDifferent: Airi and Ritsuko have mentioned more than once how Junpei and Celcia are more a alike than they care to admit.
* TheOneGuy
* PottyEmergency: Junpei, Season 2 Episode 2, complete with a graph and flashing alarm showing his current state. His dilemma leads to some [[{{Squick}} uncomfortable images.]] Ends with [[spoiler:the discovery of a teddy bear that can excrete toilet paper, in perfect rolls, complete with cardboard tube. Yeah.]]
* RightBehindMe: Dawn broadcasts a giant hologram of herself holding up a wanted poster of Junpei, telling everyone on the planet to watch for him, [[EnemyRisingBehind entirely unaware of Junpei's looming silhouette]] just behind her. Since she can sense the native's emotions, she briefly wonders why 2 billion people are mocking her at once before Junpei's foot lands.
* ShipTease: Celcia and Junpei, and also Ritsuko and Junpei. The latter seemingly even gets jealous when something happened between Junpei and other girls, [[spoiler:especially the time he (accidentally) kissed another girl]].
* SiblingYinYang: [[spoiler:Junpei is the polar opposite of his younger sister Mai Shintani in the sequel manga]]
* SlapSlapKiss: [[spoiler:Junpei and Celcia, believe it or not. Junpei sure doesn't. As in, he's completely oblivious even when Celcia confesses to him. Though Junpei does admit to finding Celecia's true form attractive.]]
* WrongGenreSavvy: In one chapter of the manga, Junpei states that "you can't go by in a fantasy world without knowing a spell or two", and thus sets out to train in the arcane arts in his very own way. HilarityEnsues.




to:

* BadassNormal: Since many of her opponents are supernatural or magical in nature.
* DespairEventHorizon: Ritsuko slips into this briefly during the Mold arc after [[spoiler:she realized she gave away the titular Mold, which allows the villain to burn her pretty much at will.]]
* FriendlySniper
* GunsAkimbo: She is a military otaku.




to:

* BadassNormal: Since many of her opponents are supernatural or magical in nature.
* TheChick: Not that she's ineffectual. She just doesn't do a lot of the fighting.
* {{Cult}}: At one stage, Airi founds a religious organisation who pray stark naked. Unsurprisingly this is mostly marketed at elves.
* GuileHero: In addition to being a MasterOfDisguise, Airi is skilled at reading people and controlling them. She can often do more with a few words than the others can do with magic, bullets or fists.
* MasterOfDisguise: Justified in that she is an [[MasterActor award-winning actress]].
* NotSoAboveItAll: Airi doesn't voice her frustrations over not being able to return to Japan as often as Junpei and Ritsuko, but she does complain internally. Like in episode nine of the anime where she has an inner monologue complaining about having to work a retail job selling dresses and the fact that in the elf world she's a nobody with no money.
* ThePowerOfActing: Airi uses this as her main weapon.
* [[TheSmartGuy The Smart Girl]]: Airi, lacking muscles, magic, and guns, relies solely on her brain and her acting skills to support the group.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Purple hair.



* ButtMonkey: If there is anyone who has earned this title for the sheer amount of [[EpicFail Epic Fails]] alone, it is Cecelia, who is considered to be, ironically, the best magician in the land. In the manga she even gets stuck as a literal monkey for a time.
* CriticalFailure: Celcia, a ''lot''. She screws up the spell to send the trio home [[spoiler:not once, but twice]]. [[spoiler:Not only that, but she's the one who cast the spell that summoned Junpei, Ritsuko, and Airi to her world in the first place!]]Especially true in the manga where she loses the fragments they've collected multiple times whenever they get all five or are close to getting all five.Despite exemplifying this trope for the sake of the plot, she's reasonably competent when the stakes aren't returning the heroes home.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: When she reminds you that she's not just a ButtMonkey and really is one of the most powerful magic users in the Elf world.
* MagicMisfire: Celcia disguises herself as a doglike creature to try to help them find the spell fragments without being recognized. However, when they find the first fragment and she transfers it to herself, it causes [[spoiler:ShapeshifterModeLock until they have all the fragments. Her increasingly ridiculous appearance as the spell fragments transfer to her become a RunningGag.]]
* NotSoDifferent: Airi and Ritsuko have mentioned more than once how Junpei and Celcia are more a alike than they care to admit.
* ShapeshifterModeLock: Happens to Celcia.
* SlapSlapKiss: [[spoiler:Junpei and Celcia, believe it or not. Junpei sure doesn't. As in, he's completely oblivious even when Celcia confesses to him. Though Junpei does admit to finding Celecia's true form attractive.]]
* StableTimeLoop: [[spoiler:It turns out that the BigBad whom Celcia casts a protagonists-summoning spell to defeat is amnesiac Celcia from the future.]]
* SummonEverymanHero: The back-plot of the story: to defeat the BigBad, Celcia casts a spell which summons the protagonists. Less than a minute later, the BigBad is [[spoiler:only mostly]] dead, thanks to Ritsuko blasting it with the armored tank that the spell also brought along.
* TeamPet: For most of the series. Though what type of pet changes over the course of series.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Celcia has this type of relationship with her old Academy Rival the elf Rebecca in the manga and Junpei in both Anime and Manga. Junpei and Rebecca actually hit off because they both care for Celcia and think she's an idiot.
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: [[spoiler:Celcia can transform into whatever she wants with her ring. However, played with in that she always ends up transforming into animals (hence she is considered TeamPet) and cannot transform back once she absorbs any one of the spell fragments. She can only change back once she gains all fragments or lose them all. The fact that the spell fragments, which manifest visibly in her body as she gains them, make her [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/072.jpg look ridiculous]] does not help. For those who don't understand the image, the dark lines on the big bird are the spell fragments that manifest on Celcia's body. And that big bird is only ''one'' of the forms that she ends up not so willingly taking throughout the whole comic.]]
* YankTheDogsChain: Celcia has been able to return to her original form and can even stay in it for a few chapters, but she'll inevitably get stuck as some sort of creature again.




to:

* CoolTank: The Mitsubishi Type 74 tank, practically a character in its own right. [[spoiler:Later on, it actually ''does'' become a character, when the cat spirit Mike (mee-kay) possesses it.]]
* {{Leitmotif}}: The [[CoolTank tank]] is represented by an electric guitar riff.
* MegaNeko: [[spoiler:Once the tank is inhabited by a cat spirit.]]
* SapientTank: The type 74 "Mike" after being possessed by a cat.
* TankGoodness: The friendly cat-possessed tank is certainly helpful.

* IHaveTheHighGround: He seems to enjoy pretending to be [[Anime/SailorMoon Tuxedo Mask]].
* InspectorJavert: While he's in the right about Those Who Hunt Elves being criminals and a serious nuisance, he's very much an authoritarian JerkAss. Even on the second season, when the team gets a special dispensation that allows them to do their "job" freely, he continues to insist that he wants them in jail and keeps seeking methods to make them lose the dispensation so he can do it (his favorite being stringing them along with a series of ImpossibleMission bets with their freedom on the line--the team accepts because otherwise they would not be able to have access to the elves on those places, period).
