History VideoGame / Bravoman

* Engrish: Dr Bomb speaks like his poorly translated game counterpart. By comparison Wonder Momo's heavily accented diction sounds normal.

** SuddenlyVoiced: Benjamin. [[http://www.shiftylook.com/comics/bravoman/boisterous-benjamin As literal as possible]].

** Simpson

** Similarly [[MakessenseInContext when Waya is picking out weapons for the groomsmen to wield at her wedding]], the choice is between Sais and a Bao Staff, the weapons of both Ninja Turtles that Rob Paulsen has voiced.

* DontTouchThatYouIdiot: [[spoiler:After mysteriously swapping places with Dr. Bomb in the death trap, Bravoman notices the button that did it, only to be prevented by Alpha from pressing it.]]

* ActorAllusion: In the season finale, Bravoman gets fanmail from "Megafan1987" who tells him he's "cool but rude". This was [[Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles Raphael]]'s description from the intro of the ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987'' cartoon, who Creator/RobPaulsen also voiced.
* CouchGag: In the finale.

--> Bravoman: But she's not a Bravoman character
--> Alphaman: According to Namco mandate, we are required one cross over appearance per episode. Next week we get Pac-Man.

** Bravowoman and her current story arc

-->'''Alpha Man''': "Listen up, Bravoman..."

* EverythingsSquishierWithCephalopods: The cyber-alien octopus Zulu.

* ForWantOfANail: Bravoman ends up in an alternate universe where Anti-Bravoman was never created and therefore Bravo MAster never defeated Zulu. [[spoiler:Or, in truth where Anti-Bravo took over the mantle of Bravoman.]]
* FusionDance: Bravo Master is the combination of Bravoman, Anti-Bravoman, Bravowoman, and Brave-Man, created by beating up on Anti-Bravo so his anti-particles destabilize.

** [[spoiler:Reverse Anti-Bravoman. He basically doomed his universe all because he [[BloodKnight wanted a better challenge.]]

'''Bravoman''': Err... Girls are scary? (...) Really, really scary.

* Power Armor: Bravo Woman's costume is revealed to be this.

* Lawyer Friendly Cameo: During the "Bravo the Barbarian" arc he faced wizard who was add by four ocrs in famililar looking war paint that made them resemble a group of four radawesome turtles

* ActorAllusion: In the season finale, Bravoman gets fanmail from "Megafan1987" who tells him he's "cool but crude". This was [[Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles Raphael]]'s description from the intro of the ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987'' cartoon, who Creator/RobPaulsen also voiced.

* CerebusSyndrome: Invoked and lampshaded: in the parallel world, where people are slightly different (and Anti-Bravoman doesn't exist), Zulu made it to Earth and tore it up, and [[EnemyMine the Bravos teamed up with the Ninjas and Dr. Bomb]] to stop it. After that, Bomb unleashed his forces and decimated the earth, and even invented the 5th wall, which stops all 4th wall breaking, preventing jokes and powers that run on meta humor.

* MinorInjuryOverreaction: Komuso hides her face because it was horribly scarred and she wants to spare others the horror of seeing it...but said "scar" is apparently just a small pimple.

* ForScience: the motivation of several characters. Especially Dr. Bomb like in [[http://www.shiftylook.com/comics/bravoman/the-origin-of-anti-bravoman this scene]]

The series faded into obscurity, barring cameos (and a playable appearance in ''VideoGame/NamcoXCapcom'') until it was revived as a webcomic as part of Webcomic/ShiftyLook. Fully titled ''[[http://www.shiftylook.com/comics/bravoman Bravoman: Super Unequalled Hero of Excellence]]'' the comic is very silly and self referential.
