5* AdaptationalNameChange: In the anime, their surname was spelled "Batman"[[labelnote:Proof]]'''Spoilers''', but [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/georgien30.JPG here]][[/labelnote]], but the Creator/DiscotekMedia subtitles spell it as "Buttman". Probably because "Batman" would remind viewers of the [[ComicBook/{{Batman}} Caped Crusader]] while "Bateman" would remind them of, [[Film/AmericanPsycho well]]...

20** She also is the Betty to Jessica's Veronica to Abel's Archie.

26* FatherIWantToMarryMyBrother: When she was a child she used to say that she wanted to marry her brothers Abel and Arthur, and also the three of them used to continuously play at being mom and dad. This obviously she said without having any idea that they were not actually her [[NotBloodSiblings biological siblings]], and she lost this fantasy as she grew up.
27* FeminineWomenCanCook: Downplayed. Georgie is an excellent cook, but she is a bit of a tomboy and it took quite a bit of practice for her.
28* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: She has blond hair and is a very kind and gentle girl.
29* HappilyAdopted: Zig Zagged. On the one hand, it is known that she lived a happy childhood with her brothers and her adoptive father, but on the other hand we know that her adoptive mother did not accept her as a daughter and abused her.

34* ObliviousAdoption: Georgie has blonde hair and green eyes while the rest of her family has dark hair and blue eyes, despite this she never suspected that she was adopted.
35* ObliviousToLove: She is unaware that both her adoptive brothers are in love with her.
36* OneOfTheBoys: During her childhood she was always playing with her adoptive brothers Abel and Arthur, and even in the episodes where she goes to school she is only seen hanging out with boys. It seems that during her childhood she did not have female friends in adsolute.
37* PluckyGirl: She goes through many adversities in her life, from having to face her adoptive mother expel her from her home, and having her confess her true roots, to having to let her loved one go to make sure he can stay alive, and [[spoiler: having to watch the new one die man she loved]], but despite everything she knew how to stand up and face these problems
38* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: She fell in love with Lowell who is a very attentive and kind boy. [[spoiler: Later in the manga she falls in love with Abel when he gets his CharacterDevelopment, and in the ending it is hinted that she might start a new romance with the NiceGuy Arthur]].
39* SomeoneToRememberHimBy: [[spoiler: Another reason that helped her to recover after Abel's death was the fact that she was now pregnant with his son]].
40* SweetPollyOliver: Georgie is not allowed to participate in a boomerang competition because she's a girl, so she dresses up in her brother's clothes and lies. She wins the competition and was originally going to get a kiss from Elizabeth as the prize, but reveals her sex before they actually kiss. This is also how she meets Lowell. Happens again when she follows Lowell to London, cutting her hair short in the process unlike before when she just tucked her hair in her hat.
41* TragicKeepsake: Georgie's bracelet, the only thing tying her to her [[spoiler: noble family. She later has to sell it to pay for medicine for Lowell, but ultimately she has to return him home]].
42* TenderTomboyishnessFoulFemininity: She's a nice and cheerful tomboy, while Elise is a mean and girly RichBitch.
43* TextileWorkIsFeminine: She can sew, even making a dress out of Catherine and her mother's old dresses, which are too small and too low-cut respectively, and later gets a job as a seamstress to support herself and Lowell. She really has an innate talent for sewing, [[spoiler: even her father mentions that if she opened her own dress shop she would become richer than him.]]
44* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: She grew up as an OutdoorsyGal with her brothers, is playful, energetic, and good at boomerang. She is also very sweet, has no problem with dresses (even the pink ones) or feminine things like sewing and cooking, and is madly in love with PrincelyYoungMan Lowell.

78* AttemptedSuicide: [[spoiler: In the anime, he slits his wrists and attempts to bleed out in the bathtub, but is unsuccessful and found by Irwin before he is treated.

This is much worse in the manga where he is constantly injected with drugs to torture him to keep him at bay, and it is even implied that Irwin is sexually abusing him. In fact the only reason they keep him alive is because Maria had fallen in love with him.]]
84* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Unlike his brother he understands that Georgie could never see them as anything more than brothers, and he decided that he would be happy just to see her happy.
85* MaybeEverAfter: [[spoiler: At the end of the manga, it's implied that he could start a romance with Georgie]].

111
112The mother of Abel, Arthur and (adoptive) Georgie. After the death of her husband, she ran the farm alone and raised children. He worried that his children would begin to see Georgie as a woman, so he regretted hitting him. After that, she fell down with a lot of work and was deceased by Arthur.

114[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/mary_bateman.png]]
115* AbusiveParents: She is very hard on Georgie and most of the time she blames her for the misfortunes that happen in the family, even though she has done absolutely nothing to feasibly cause them or were out of her control.
116* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Although she is far from being considered a loving mother, at least in the anime she has moments of genuine affection towards Georgie, while in the manga Georgie mentions that she doesn't have a single happy memory with her mother.
117* ItsAllMyFault: She completely regrets telling Georgie the truth, and blames herself for destroying the family.
118* MyBelovedSmother: She doesn't seem to accept the idea that her children are drifting away from her, preferring her own kids over Groegie, and this has led her to grow a deep resentment against Georgie that she clearly doesn't deserve.
119* ParentalFavoritism: She punishes Georgie more often for lesser offenses she lets Abel and Arthur get away with.
120* ParentsAsPeople: She does care about her children, but is particularly strict with Georgie and blames her for her husband's death (though she never outright tells her that she should have died). She isn't outright abusive, but is bitter to her. According to Georgie in the manga, she has never even hugged her. She eventually snaps and reveals to Georgie that she is not her daughter and kicks her out. [[spoiler: Arthur witnesses this and Mary begs him not to leave her, but he calls her a cruel woman and goes after Georgie. She ends up regretting this since it alienates her sons, as well as the fact she eventually realized she did indeed care for Georgie all this time, leaving her to die alone of a broken heart]].

150* CoolUncle: To Georgie, Abel and Arthur.
151* DeliberateValuesDissonance: A strange case. In the anime Georgie or his siblings sometimes go to him for advice, and some of them could be considered quite dubious if viewed with modern day eyes (Example: telling Georgie that her mother is severe with her for being a girl , or tell her that Abel is possessive towards her for having a very pretty sister) but that for the time in which the story is set they made sense. That said, some advice seems to be more like a way to prevent Georgie from knowing that she was adopted or that her siblings were in love with her, than a real belief in them, and other advice if they were more understandable, such as when he convinced Mary to let Georgie go to school or when he told Arthur that he had to consider Georgie's feelings.

197* {{Foil}}: To Jessica. They are both girls who are in love with a Buttman brother (Jessica with Abel, and Maria with Arthur), but Jessica is a selfish and possessive girl who is willing to pay a man to kill Georgie, and is constantly rejected by Abel, while Maria is a kind and sweet girl who really cares about Arthur and is never rejected by him (although this is because Duke Dangling and Irwin have him as a prisoner and force him to act as her fiancé) and she doesn't feel any resentment towards Georgie.
198* HoneyTrap: A nonsexual example. [[spoiler: She flirts with one of the guards in Arthur's cell, to convince him to drink a tea with liquor that will make him sleep and so Georgie's father and Abel take the opportunity to free Arthur]].

210* TheAlcoholic: He likes wine and whiskey, despite being a dog. When he's drunk, he starts hiccupping loudly.
211* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: After Georgie leaves him with Catherine, he never appears or is even mentioned again. [[JustifiedTrope This is probably due to the fact]] [[CanonForeigner that he was non-canon from the beginning]], and the anime writers couldn't figure out how to use him further.
212* UndyingLoyalty: For Uncle Kevin and Georgie. He's willing to do anything for them, especially when she calls him by his full name: "[[RunningGag Baron William Adams Junior]]".

250----
251[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/elise_64.png]]
252* AdaptationalKarma: In the manga she hardly receives any punishment for her bad deeds, not only is it mentioned that she regrets what she did to Georgie (although she never apologizes directly to her if we are to the case) but also Lowell ends up falling in love and deciding marry her. In anime, on the contrary, after the arrest of Duke Dangling she acquires a bad reputation for being his niece. In this version not only is it clear that Lowell is never going to love her, but also he is so resentful of being abandoned by Georgie that he TookAlevelInJerkass and has no problem in publicly humiliating her(and it is implied that she will have to go on living this forever).
253* AllLoveIsUnrequited: She is in love with Lowell but he views her like a sister. [[spoiler: This changes later.]]
254* AlphaBitch: Especially in the way she treats Georgie at the party.
255* AristocratsAreEvil: As she was introduced at the beginning.
256* BettyAndVeronica: The Veronica to Georgie's Betty for Lowell's Archie.
257* JerkassHasAPoint: When Lowell mentions that he plans to renounce the aristocracy for Georgie, Elise tells him that he knows him well and is the type who cannot live in poverty after knowing luxury. She is right.
258* LoveEpiphany: At first, she didn't care for Lowell until [[spoiler: nearly dying of tuberculosis]], when she realized she does love him. She also becomes noticeably kinder after this.
259* PerfectlyArrangedMarriage: Subverted at first. [[spoiler: However after Elise's character development, Lowell falls in love with her and decides that it is with her that he wants to be with]]
260* SpoiledBrat: She firmly believes that upper class people have superiority over the poor and has no problem publicly humiliating them.
261* TenderTomboyishnessFoulFemininity: She is a mean and girly RichBitch, while Georgie is a nice and cheerful tomboy.

267----
268[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/675.jpg]]
269* AdaptationalNiceGuy: In the manga, after learning that Abel loves another girl, she states that she will pray for that girl to die. In the anime she just says she will fight with all her strength to make Abel fall in love with her.
270** In the manga she also pays a man to kill Georgie on the trip, while in the anime she simply recommends her a boat to get her away from Abel.
271* AllLoveIsUnrequited: She is in love with Abel, who is in love with Georgie.
272* BettyAndVeronica: While Georgie is the sweet, girl-next-door Betty, Jessica is rude, brash and a delinquent with an attitude, making her Veronica.
273* ClingyJealousGirl: Because the anime hit her with a case of AdaptationalNiceGuy, her extremely possessive love for Abel was downplayed to this.
274* LadyInRed: She always wears a red dress and is presumed to be a prostitute.
275* LoveMakesYouEvil: She [[spoiler: convinces Georgie to go on a ship as a crew boy, and paid someone to kill her so she can have Abel for herself]].
276* VillainousCrush: She is a murderous yandere, and has eyes for Abel.
277* WhatHappenedToTheMouse?: Unlike the other characters, we never know what happened to her in the end, [[spoiler: especially after Abel's death]].
278* WomanScorned: [[spoiler: In the manga, she crows that once Abel returns from his trip and discovers Georgie died, she will make him fall in love with her, only to leave him so he can feel the same pain that she felt]].
279* {{Yandere}}: [[spoiler: She hires a hitman to kill Georgie after discovering that Abel loves her]].

289* CanonForeigner: She never appears in the manga.
290* CompositeCharacter: She combines most aspects of Eliza and Jessica, [[ExpyCoexistence though she does not replace them]]:
291** Like Eliza, she is an [[AlphaBitch mean]] [[RichBitch rich girl]] who shames Georgie for her slovenliness and unfemininity.
292** Like Jessica, she becomes obsessed with Abel, [[ClingyJealousGirl jealous of Georgie]], and begins creating plots against her, [[StockShoujoBullyingTactics albeit more innocuous ones]].
293* HartmanHips: Has quite large hips and butt and often adopts poses, [[MaleGaze that emphasize this]].

295* PutOnABus: Soon leaves to study in Europe and she is never mentioned again.
296* RescueRomance: Falls in love with Abel, after he saves her by stopping her rampaging horse.
