3Tina Lothar was an infamous cat burglar, making both her fortune and her reputation in the kingdom of Wellber. One night, she sneaks into the castle... where she witnesses Princess Rita Sior stabbing the man that was to be her husband, Prince Gernia Han of Sangratras. Due to a series of unlikely events, both Tina and Rita end up running out of the country with their companions Sherry and Sir Cyrano de Bergerac, on a quest to the country of Sangratras to attempt to stop war from breaking out.

7----
8!!This series provides examples of the following tropes:
9
10* AllMenArePerverts: All of the men in Dust Lust, at least.
11* ArrangedMarriage: Rita enters into one with Gernia to avoid war with Sangratras. Of course, then she ends up stabbing the guy...
12* TheAtoner: [[spoiler:Rodin, after he is confronted with killing Tina's parents.]]
13* BarbieDollAnatomy: Averted. Rita's nipples are clearly visible during the first episode after she has stabbed Prince Gernia.
14** Played straight with Sherry, but possibly [[JustifiedTrope justified]] in that she's a fairy.
15* BodyguardCrush: [[spoiler:Rita starts to fall for Galahad by the second season. Too bad Weiss felt the same way towards Rita...]]
16* FramingTheGuiltyParty: When Tina gets framed for stealing a vase after having promised Rita to retire from her life of crime... except [[SubvertedTrope she really]] ''didn't'' [[NotMeThisTime steal that vase]], and has to spend the rest of the episode clearing herself.
17* GirlsWithGuns: Tina uses one, despite the (mostly) fantasy setting. She intentionally uses less gunpowder to make her shots non-lethal, however.
18* HonorBeforeReason: Most of the characters take their shot, usually when someone needs to carry the IdiotBall.
19* HookerWithAHeartOfGold: The city of Dust Lust is basically a town ''full'' of these.
20* IHaveBoobsYouMustObey: How Tina and Rita manage to escape from the search party in Dust Lust.
21* ImportantHaircut: For both practical and symbolic reasons, Princess Rita cuts her hair in the second episode. It doesn't stop people from recognizing her, though.
22* InstantAIJustAddWater: Sir Cyrano de Bergerac, a sentient tank, who has actually been given the title of Duke.
23* ItsPersonal: Tina's family was killed in front of her by the Death Wasp Man. Hearing about him being sighted in Sangratras was one of the reasons she volunteered to guard Rita.
24%%* KnightTemplar: Galahad. (ZCE- describe how the character fits this trope.)
25* LimitedWardrobe: Each of the main characters has probably two or three outfits, tops.
26* MacGuffin: The petition to the King of Sangratas to try and avoid war. [[spoiler:It doesn't work.]]
27* MadOracle: Subverted with [[spoiler:Rodin]]. Technically, [[spoiler:he was only mad for a short period, and for good reason,]] but has always had a talent for precognition regardless.
28* NakedFirstImpression: The first time Tina sees Rita. Of course, she was probably also a bit distracted by the bloody body at her feet.
29* NippleAndDimed: Averted. Rita's breasts are in full view during the first episode... though the [[FanDisservice context]] draws away from the sexy.
30* ObfuscatingStupidity: [[spoiler:The Mayor from the third episode.]]
31* PrincessesPreferPink: Well, her hair is pink, anyway.
32* RapeAsDrama: What Prince Gernia seems to have been trying to do to Rita when we first see her, and the reason she stabbed him. [[spoiler:This is (mostly) a misunderstanding: Prince Gernia is actually a serial killer who collects women's eyes, and he wanted Rita's ''bad''. The knife she stabbed him with [[{{Irony}} was the one he was going to kill her with]].]]
33* RebelliousPrincess: Rita, sort of. Well, it was that or get executed, so she didn't really have much choice.
34* RevengeBeforeReason: Tina's desire to see the Death Wasp Man pay for killing her family drives much of her actions throughout the show.
35* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: [[spoiler:The reason the Death Wasp Man, AKA Prince Rodin Sior, murdered Tina's family was that he went insane after seeing his entire unit killed and targeted random people in his sorrow. Tina's parents were just in the way.]]
36* SapientTank: Sir Cyrano de Bergerac is one.
37* SerialKiller: The man who has been killing women and taking out their eyes. [[spoiler:You may know him as Prince Gernia]].
38* TankGoodness: Cyrano de Bergerac, a sentient tank, and also Rita's transport/weapon of choice.
39* TeamPet: Sherry, though Cyrano may also count.
40* TechnicalPacifist: Tina, who uses low-powder shots to make her shots non-lethal. The only man she wishes to kill is the Death Wasp Man, AKA [[spoiler:Rita's brother, Rodin.]]
41* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: No one seems to comment on the sentient, talking tank or the naked green fairy that follows the two girls around.
42* VerbalTic: Sherry says "beru" at the end of every sentence.
