* KickTheSonOfABitch: He beats the thugs who [[spoiler:shot Draken]] to a bloody pulp. Of course, [[ImmediateSelfContradiction he then proceeds to congratulate them]], which kind of cancels out the satisfaction of seeing them get their comeuppance.

Added DiffLines:
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: His extremely tall and muscular build ([[WalkingShirtlessScene which he shows off often by wearing his jacket unbuttoned or simply removing it]]), neck tattoo, tendency to [[LargeHam scream at the top of his lungs]] with bulging eyes, as well as AxCrazy tendencies and a gleeful attitude towards cruelty and violence make him very close to Taiju Shiba. Somewhat subverted since Taiju had already been absent from the series for quite a long time by the time South is introduced.

Ambiguous Disorder is not a trope anymore, but a redirect to a YMMV entry.
Deleted line(s) 14 (click to see context) :
* AmbiguousDisorder: South is an absolute mess of issues due to his DarkAndTroubledPast. Most notably, he's [[LackOfEmpathy completely unable (or unwilling) to care about others]], and his personality can switch from calm, collected and almost pleasant to ruthless, aggressive and vicious within the blink of an eye - something he attributes to his "dark urges".

* TheGiant: The tallest character in the series, dwarfing even Draken, and with a muscle mass to match.
Added DiffLines:
* VagueAge: South's age is incredibly hard to gauge, mostly because [[YoungerThanTheyLook he already looked fully grown as a 12-year-old]], although he is likely 22 at most since he was in juvenile detention when he met the S-62 in 2006, two years before his appearance in the story. Had he been 21 or older at the time, he would have been in jail.
