Line #19 Characters/BroniesReact


1	Here are the tropes pertaining to the rotating cast of bronies in ''WebVideo/BroniesReact''. "Main" is for bronies who have appeared in every or almost every episode; "Recurring" is for bronies who have appeared in more than one episode but are not considered main; "One Appearnace" is for [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin bronies who have, so far, only appeared in one episode.]]
2
3	[[foldercontrol]]
4
5	[[folder:Main or Recurring]]
6	!![=ACRaceBest=] (Race)
7	* CatchPhrase: "Luna!"
8	** More accurately, anything along the lines of "I bet Luna's gonna have a really big role in this episode!"
9	%%* DeadpanSnarker
10	* EpicFail: In the reaction to the season 2 finale, he loses a battle with [[spoiler: his couch cushion]].
11	* {{Headdesk}}: Tries to do this in James's place... and cracks his coffee table.
12	%%* TheLeader
13	%%* LargeHam: Sometimes.
14	* MindScrew: He gives himself a headache trying to figure out how the switching cutie marks of the mane six also changes where they live, as well as apparently their past and how characters react to them.
15	** TimeyWimeyBall: Screwed-up timelines are involved in his thinking.
16
17	!!Saberspark
18	* BasementDweller: Implied and played for laughs in the season 3 finale. After deciding that having wings and a horn makes you a princess, he realizes that he is wearing (fake) wings and a (fake) horn, so he turns and yells "MOM! I'M A PRINCESS!" [[spoiler: His "mother" responds by saying he's an embarrassment.]]
19	%%* TheLancer
20	* MrFanservice: He's fairly attractive and went shirtless in the reaction for the season 6 premiere--though he claims it's mostly because he didn't feel like putting in the effort to get dressed. In the bonus video, he's implied to be naked (but censored).
21	* SoundEffectBleep: He's possibly the only person in the show to censor himself when he swears.
22	* VomitDiscretionShot: ''Cupcakes'' reduces him to throwing up.
23
24	!!The Living Tombstone
25	* PassThePopcorn: He pulls out a bucket of popcorn for the season 3 finale. It stays there throughout the entire episode.
26	%%* PermaStubble
27	* SilentSnarker: "Do you collect pony toys?" Cue Tombstone silently gesturing to the pile of said toys on his desk.
28	* TheSmartGuy: If someone is giving an honest opinion on something and putting a lot of thought into it, chances are it's him.
29	* SophisticatedAsHell: "I just watched the promo for Equestria Girls. Also known as the reason for why the fandom has ''gone apeshit''."
30
31	!!Solrac / Yaplap
32	* {{Angrish}}: Not all of it is necessarily angry, but he does devolve into loud, incomprehensible gibberish on occasion.
33	%%* TheBigGuy
34	* CloudCuckoolander: The most consistent example.
35	%%* LargeHam
36	* MoodSwinger: Goes from freaking out over the gore of ''Cupcakes'' to dancing along to the music happily, without missing a beat.
37	%%* NoIndoorVoice
38	* TheQuietOne: In the Season 2 finale reaction episode; he doesn't actually ''say'' anything, but voices over himself in two different moments (when Twilight exposing Cadence goes wrong, and during This Day Aria, using his cover). [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] in that he was recording in a house instead of a car, and his NoIndoorVoice would've bothered everyone inside.
39	* SdrawkcabName: "Solrac" is Carlos spelled backwards.
40
41	!![=D.Notive=]
42	%%* DeadpanSnarker
43	* HeroicBSOD: Equestria Girls reduces him to one.
44	* INeedAFreakingDrink: Part of his above HeroicBSOD.
45	* OnlySaneMan: Even if others sometimes take this role as well, he ''never'' shifts out of it.
46	%%* TheStoic
47	%%* TheQuietOne
48
49	!![=Jaxblade07=]
50	* CloudCuckoolander: A bit in his earlier appearances.
51	* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: His camera quality was pretty bad in his first appearance.
52	%%* ManlyTears: During the Season 3 finale, Crusaders of the Lost Mark and The Perfect Pear.
53	%%* SixthRanger
54
55	!!Dustykatt (Dusty)
56	* TheCameo: Makes a brief appearance in the season 3 finale reaction to imitate Pinkie Pie's SpitTake.
57	%%* DeadpanSnarker
58	* OnlySaneMan: Shares this role with [=D.Notive=].
59	* TheStoic: He never raises his voice.
60	* TranquilFury: When reacting to ''Teens React to My Little Pony'', he acted this way whenever the teens directly insulted bronies.
61
62	!![=IBringDaLulz=]
63	* CloudCuckoolander: Mild compared to others, but still.
64	%%* LargeHam
65	* MrFanservice: As seen when he gets a ShirtlessScene as part of a visual gag in the "Derpy Change"
66	* OfficialCouple: With Amethyst, who shows up in the season 3 finale alongside him.
67
68	!!Orchestral Design
69	%%* BerserkButton: Episodes without Octavia.
70	%%* CloudCuckoolander
71	* FlippingTheTable: At the end of all of his appearances due to the lack of Octavia.
72	* {{Irony}}: The one time the Bronies react to something with Octavia in it, Orchestral Design is not present.
73	* LargeHam: Not as much as Solrac, but he still qualifies.
74	* RunningGag: Flipping his table at the end of episodes if there was no Octavia.
75	** Less memorable is his habit of pointing at the screen when he sees Luna, throwing his arm forward so fast to do so that he sends a container flying off his table, complete with the sound of something breaking.
76	%%* TranquilFury: Before his second instance of FlippingTheTable.
77
78	!!Mic the Microphone
79	%%* ForHalloweenIAmGoingAsMyself
80	* KilledOffForReal: PlayedForLaughs. [[Franchise/TheSlenderManMythos Slenderman]] "kills" him in the ''Cupcakes'' reaction and takes over, though it's obviously just Mic in a costume.
81	* OnlySaneMan: Like Dusty, he cements this role rather well despite having only a couple of appearances.
82	%%* StraightGay
83
84	!![=BlackGryph0n=]
85	* BadLiar: In ''Smile HD'', when trying to hide the true nature of the video from Monique Creber, he claims the blood is "ketchup" and that the video is actually an episode of the show that focuses around the healthiness of eating tomatoes.
86	** Later, when Michelle Creber comes in, he (with some help from Monique) tries to hide it from ''her'' differently, by saying they were actually just watching the show intro. Hilariously, while Monique doesn't seem to believe Gryphon (or, if she does, is definitely very suspicious), Michelle seems to buy it, leading to her being confused whenever Gryphon says the video was disturbing.
87	* {{Crossdresser}}: In the 2014 Halloween special, he dresses up as a diva along with Michelle Creber.
88	%%** WholesomeCrossdresser / AttractiveBentGender
89	* LimitedWardrobe: Somewhat; so far, with the exception of being a ninja, he's always worn a military uniform in his appearances. However, the actual uniform changes.
90	** Zig-zagged in ''Smile HD''. He starts off in costume as Apple Bloom due to it being another Halloween special, but later when Michelle Creber walks in, he quickly ditches the costume and tries to cover up with his typical military jacket. But by the next scene, he's given up and is back to being in costume again.
91	%%* {{Ninja}}: In the ''Cupcakes'' reaction video.
92
93	!!Robbob
94	* TheComicallySerious: His calm demeanor makes the things he says just that much funnier.
95	* FailedASpotCheck: He apparently didn't notice when his drink turned into a grenade.
96	* MadeOfIron: Gets blown up by a grenade. Perfectly fine.
97	* RealMenWearPink:
98	--> '''Robbob''': Well, just got done saving America. Time to watch some ponies.
99
100	!![=PhillyPu=]
101	* TheGenericGuy: He doesn't do a lot that makes him stand out.
102	* OnlySaneMan: Due to the above point.
103
104	!!Nowacking
105	* CutenessProximity: The Crystal Empire's ewes reduce him to squealing.
106	* LockedOutOfTheLoop: In the live reaction of "Fame and Misfortune", the others have to tell him that Starlight had become part of the main cast for some time at that point. Justified as Starlight's mane design changed after season 5, but he was quite embarrassed regardless.
107	* MindScrew: The entire Equestria Girls trailer is this to him. As one comment states: "I thought Nowacking's brain was going to explode."
108	* {{Squee}}: Aside from the CutenessProximity above, there's also his reaction to seeing humanized Vinyl Scratch in the Equestria Girls trailer, complete with a bit of a ClusterFBomb.
109	* WalkingShirtlessScene: Tears off his shirt during the reaction to the finale and remains shirtless for the whole video. [[MrFanservice It's not unwelcome.]]
110
111	!!Paleosteno
112	* NoJustNoReaction: His reaction to the Equestria Girls trailer.
113
114	!!Eilemonty
115	* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: While imitating Twilight's reaction to becoming human in Equestria Girls:
116	--> '''Eile''': Ahhhh! ''(looks at her hand)'' I've got fingers! Ahhhh! ''(looks at her foot)'' I've got toes! Ahhhh! ''(looks down her shirt)'' I've got...oh.
117	* BrokenAesop: In-universe. "Don't make friends, or you'll die."
118
119	!!Animated James
120	* BlatantLies: "And I thought ''I'' was white."
121	* BrokenPedestal: Despite claiming Rainbow Dash as his favorite pony, he remarks in ''Rainbow Rocks'' how he's starting to wonder why. In the ''Season 5 Premiere'' react, near the end, he turns to a necktie modeled after her and proclaims "''All you do is bitch!''"
122	* DeadpanSnarker: His defining trait.
123	* {{Headdesk}}: A RunningGag is him doing this in response to stupid or otherwise disliked moments in what he's reacting to. The react to ''Rainbow Rocks'' even has a slow-motion headdesk from him as TheStinger.
124	** When [[ItMakesSenseInContext taking notes for what to do in his reaction]] during his react of the 100th episode, he writes down to headdesk "[[CallBack ...less hard this time]]" in response to something. Later, he writes to do it again "REALLY REALLY HARD" in response to something even worse.
125	* InnerMonologue: His reaction to episode 100 is this. It starts with him watching the episode and internally declaring he can't come up with any jokes that wouldn't be obvious, so to prepare for his react, he decides to watch it again and think about the jokes, taking notes as he goes. This allows him to lampshade his own running gags rather than actually doing them (headdesking, impersonations[[labelnote:*]]fun fact: out of the three of his impersonations that he writes down to do in this episode, two are, or were at the time believed to be females (Nowacking- who is a female-to-male transgender man, though had not come out as such at the time, and [=EileMonty=]), and the third is [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking M.A. Larson smoking weed]][[/labelnote]]) holding up a cross) by showing them written in the notes. [[spoiler: At the end, he prepares to do his actual reaction, with speaking out loud, but the video ends.]]
126	* NWordPrivileges: Though rather than using them to use words that are otherwise racist slurs, he uses them to make creative jokes about black people. Even when said jokes [[SelfDeprecation also insult himself.]]
127	--> '''James''': Was that Ratchetness or Jaxblade? All black people sound the same to me.
128	* TakeThat: He often does impersonations of the other people reacting, typically in negative ways, but naturally it's PlayedForLaughs.
129	** SelfDeprecation: The reason he does this:
130	--> '''James''': I know! I'll just satirize and poke fun at the other reactors to hide the fact that I have no original ideas of my own! ''(smiles proudly)''
131	** Though he then turns it into another TakeThat by calling it "the [[WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy Seth MacFarlane]] approach".
132
133	!![=Littleshy FiM=]
134	* AuthorAppeal: He loves Derpy/Muffins. This is most obvious in his reactions to the 100th episode.
135
136	!!Viva Reverie (previously called [=ImmaToonLink=]
137
138

142	!![=BronyMike=]
143	* TheComicallySerious
144
145	!![=BaldDumboRat=]
146	* ActorAllusion: He appeared in the video where they reacted to the Derpy change, while he himself is the voice of Derpy in ''AudioPlay/DoctorWhoovesAndAssistant''.
147
148	!![[Creator/KiraBuckland Rina-Chan]]
149
150	!!Tsyolin
151
152	!!Trivium
153
154	!!Prince Whateverer
155
156	!!Mixipony
157
158	!![=AcousticBrony=] (Edd and Jimmy)
159	* RedOniBlueOni: In the beginning, Jimmy seems to be the red to Edd's blue. Edd drops this over the course of the video.
160	%%* ThoseTwoGuys
161
162	!!Amethyst
163	* BuffySpeak: Refers to a cutie mark as a "butt mark" at one point.
164	* DullSurprise:
165	--> "Oh look, Twilight Sparkle awkwardly tap dancing."
166	* TheFashionista: Comes across as this when she begins talking about Luna's dress.
167	** She actually is a fashionista, she has a series of pony inspired makeup-vlogs!
168	%%* GenkiGirl
169	* OfficialCouple: With [=IBringDaLulz=], whom she appears with in the season 3 finale reaction.
170	* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: Energetic girl to Lulz's savvy guy.
171
172	!!Final Draft

174	!!Joe Stevens
175	%%* LargeHam

181	* SpecialGuest: She's one of the storyboard artists for ''My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic''.
182
183	!!Monique Creber
184
185	!!Creator/MichelleCreber
186	* SpecialGuest: She actually voices Apple Bloom in ''Friendship is Magic''.
187	** TheCameo: Since she only appeared near the end and didn't say much, she can be considered this. Subverted in the next episode, where she was consistently reacting throughout the whole thing alongside Gabriel.
188
189	!!M. A. Larson
190	* SelfDeprecation: Throws a lot of jabs at himself and the production crew as a whole.
191	* SpecialGuest: One of the biggest, what with his being the head writer for ''My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic''.
192	* {{Troll}}: As he is known to be towards the fandom.
