| 10 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart: WesternAnimation/BugsBunny (specifically the calm, cool and level-headed part of his personality). |
| 11 | -->Voiced by: Creator/CharlieAdler until the end of Season 3 and the TV specials, when Creator/JohnKassir replaced him. (English). Creator/RyuseiNakao (Japanese), Marcelo Rodriguez (Latin American Spanish), Luq Hamet (French) |
| 12 | |
| 13 | The male cohost of the show, a blue-furred male bunny. Effectively TheEveryman of the show, being that he is generally portrayed as the smartest, most sensible and levelheaded of the protagonists, although not to the extent he's incapable of doing wacky stuff himself. Not related to Babs Bunny, but the two of them are occasionally hinted as being either a couple or attracted to each other. |
| 14 | ---- |
| 15 | * TheAce: He is good at various sports, and has also shown incredible musical skill in playing the drums and the electric guitar. |
| 16 | * AcquiredSituationalNarcissism: Whenever he's in his 'Mr. Popular' persona, he's a lot more arrogant and self-aggrandizing, with definite BitchInSheepsClothing tendencies. |
| 17 | * AlliterativeName: His first and last names begin with B. |
| 18 | * BadassAdorable: A younger and cuter version of WesternAnimation/BugsBunny. |
| 19 | * ButtMonkey: While obviously not to the extent of other characters, Buster tends to suffer a lot of the time due to this being a show where [[{{SadistShow}} no one is safe from pain or humiliation]], usually when dealing with Elmyra. |
| 20 | * BlueIsHeroic: He has light blue fur, and is TheLeader and the StraightMan to some of his more wacky friends. |
| 21 | * CatchPhrase: |
| 22 | ** "Now, ItsPersonal." |
| 23 | ** "Hiya, Toonsters!" |
| 24 | ** And "Now it's time to party: Buster style!" |
| 25 | * DeadpanSnarker: He has the sassiness of Bugs Bunny, but has to work a little harder because he's younger and still learning. |
| 26 | * DecompositeCharacter. Buster and Babs are both the Tiny Toons counterpart for Bugs Bunny. Specifically, Buster represents the cool and composed planner aspect of Bugs Bunny. |
| 27 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: The Phlegmatic |
| 28 | * FriendToAllChildren: Aside from getting even with the antagonists, Buster also helps out kids who have been or may be victimized by them, such as saving a bunch of kids from being bored to death by an arrogant childrens' entertainer, and exposing a con-artist bike seller who sells shoddy bikes to kids. He even once interrupts a segment to warn kids NOT to try what Elmyra had just done (telling her dad to suddenly stop the car in the middle of a busy road and running out in traffic). |
| 29 | -->'''Buster:''' Hi kids! I just have one thing to say. Please, please PLEASE don't ever ever EVER get out of a car and cross a busy highway or street! |
| 30 | * GoofyBuckteeth: He's bucktoothed and is as manic as Bugs Bunny. |
| 31 | * HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: Ironically, in the first episode, he asks for clothes to please the censors, and yet still doesn't wear pants. This gets [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] several times. |
| 32 | * TheHero: Buster's adventures include outsmarting Montana Max numerous times, escaping from Elmyra's house, spending a summer vacation downriver, facing a Wolverine, trying to get muscular, saving defenseless animals, playing with a virtual reality machine, discovering lost treasure, going to the prom with Babs, visiting the center of the Earth, and directing a Christmas special. |
| 33 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He can be a pretty huge jackass to Babs and Plucky on certain occasions, but he's still overall a NiceGuy. |
| 34 | * KarmicTrickster: Just like his hero; his motto is "always stick up for the little guy." |
| 35 | * TheLeader: Generally, he takes charge when the gang is facing a big problem. |
| 36 | * MockMillionaire: He occasionally disguises himself as a rich entrepreneur named Biff Vanderbunny to fool his richer adversaries such as Montana Max and Roderick and Rhubella Rat. |
| 37 | * NiceGuy: Buster is generally a nice guy, until provoked, that is. |
| 38 | * NiceMeanAndInbetween: The In-Between to Hamton's Nice and Plucky's Mean. While he can be level-headed, he still has his [[RascallyRabbit trickster side]], much like Bugs Bunny. |
| 39 | * OnlySaneMan: Particularly evident whenever he's trying to direct a production with the other characters, which nearly drives him up the walls. |
| 40 | * PantslessMalesFullyDressedFemales: Plays Straight of Pantsless along with Plucky to Babs' Fully Dressed. |
| 41 | * PinkGirlBlueBoy: Blue Boy to Babs' Pink Girl (both literally, because of their fur color, and figuratively because of their personalities). |
| 42 | * ThePrankster: He has a mischievous nature, though his pranks are usually geared towards bullies and villains. Occasionally, however, he will play pranks on his own friends, sometimes on Babs, who usually responds in equal fashion. |
| 43 | * RascallyRabbit: Buster and Babs Bunny take after Bugs in this fashion. |
| 44 | * RedIsHeroic: He wears a red shirt. |
| 45 | * RedOniBlueOni: The Blue to Babs' Red. |
| 46 | * RidiculousProcrastinator: While he usually averts it (and even helps Plucky when the latter did the same on a few occasions), he plays this straight in "Buster's Guide to Goofing Off" (part of "You Asked For It Again"), wherein he goofs of on his science project that he had two months to complete until the last possible minute, and teaches the viewers to do the same. |
| 47 | * RunningGag: He and Babs clarifying that they're not related, despite the same last name. |
| 48 | * SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: The cool and calm Savvy Guy to Babs' manic and zany Energetic Girl. |
| 49 | * ShipTease: Buster has many times shown to be attracted to Babs, as the feeling is usually mutual. Sometimes Buster will nervously retreat from her advances, sometimes he returns her affection, and sometimes he even goes out of his way to impress her. |
| 50 | * SpeciesSurname: A bunny with the surname Bunny. |
| 51 | * SuperSpeed: He has this ability in several of the video games, such as ''[[VideoGame/TinyToonAdventuresBustersHiddenTreasure Buster's Hidden Treasure]]'', ''[[VideoGame/TinyToonAdventuresBusterBustsLoose Buster Busts Loose]]'', ''Tiny Toon Adventures 2: Montana's Movie Madness'', and ''Tiny Toon Adventures: ACME All-Stars''. |
| 52 | * SupermanSubstitute: In "The Just-us League of Supertoons", his superhero alter-ego is Superbun, complete with an outfit nearly identical to [[Franchise/{{Superman}} Superman's]]. |
| 53 | * TenMinuteRetirement: In "It's a Wonderful Cartoon Show", Buster, in a state of self-loathing, decided that perhaps the series would be better off without him. He's stopped by the White Rabbit who shows him exactly what the series would've been like if he were never on, and it wasn't pretty. |
| 54 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Carrots, much like Bugs Bunny. |

| 60 | [[caption-width-right:350:"I just can't help myself!"]] |
| 61 | |
| 62 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterparts: WesternAnimation/BugsBunny (specifically the Bugs Bunny that dresses in drag to trick his enemies, and represents the manic and zany part of his personality), and Honey from the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosko#Bosko_on_television Bosko cartoons.]] (See "The Original Looney Tunes" below and the episode "Fields of Honey") |
| 63 | -->Voiced by: Creator/TressMacNeille (English), Creator/MinaTominaga (Japanese), Mari Adachi (Japanese, as a baby), Elena Prieto (Latin American Spanish), Creator/BarbaraTissier (French) |
| 64 | |
| 65 | The female cohost of the show, a pink-furred bunny. In contrast to Buster, she is more manic and wacky, though still capable of getting serious and sneaky if she thinks she needs it. Despite having the same last name, as they constantly reiterate, they are not siblings. Many episodes do imply some level of attraction between them. |
| 66 | |
| 67 | Note that both Babs and Buster apply the PinkGirlBlueBoy trope directly. Babs was a possible inspiration for a character introduced a couple years later, WesternAnimation/LolaBunny. |
| 68 | ---- |
| 69 | * AlliterativeName: B is the first letter of her first and last names. |
| 70 | * BadassAdorable: A younger and cuter female version of WesternAnimation/BugsBunny. |
| 71 | * BarefootCartoonAnimal: "Don't I have the cutest toes?" |
| 72 | * BeautyBrainsAndBrawn: The Brawn to Shirley's Brains and Fifi's Beauty. She's a hot-blooded and energetic trickster rabbit. |
| 73 | * BerserkButton: She ''despises'' being called "Barbara Ann Bunny". |
| 74 | * ButtMonkey: Although she has it better than [[KarmicButtMonkey Plucky]] and Furrball, sometimes [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EH9SFLHpkjM she's on the receiving end]] of AmusingInjuries. She also spends most of the movie as TheChewToy. This includes getting pelted with water guns of increasingly ridiculous size, and going through a whole sequence where a family of possums tries to eat her while Buster isn't paying attention. |
| 75 | * CatchPhrase: |
| 76 | ** "Who knew?" (always said the exact same way) |
| 77 | ** "I just can't help myself!" |
| 78 | * ChangingClothesIsAFreeAction: She is capable of quick costume changes, often achieved by simply spinning around in a circle very fast. |
| 79 | * ClassClown: Loves doing impressions of teachers or other students. |
| 80 | * DamselInDistress: Babs is this in the ''VideoGame/TinyToonAdventures'' game for the [[Platform/NintendoEntertainmentSystem NES]], ''[[VideoGame/TinyToonAdventuresBustersHiddenTreasure Buster's Hidden Treasure]]'' for the Platform/SegaGenesis, and ''Buster Saves the Day'' for the Platform/GameBoyColor, as she is captured by Montana Max in all three games. Buster's goal is to rescue her in all three games. |
| 81 | * DeadpanSnarker: Due to her love of comedy, she's not afraid to be sassy with others. |
| 82 | * DecompositeCharacter. Buster and Babs are both the Tiny Toons counterpart for Bugs Bunny. Specifically, Babs represents the quick-witted trickster aspect of Bugs Bunny. |
| 83 | * DistaffCounterpart: Like Lola is with Bugs, Babs is a [[PinkMeansFeminine pink female version]] of Buster. |
| 84 | * DoNotCallMePaul: Never ever call her by [[EmbarrassingFirstName her real name, Barbara Ann Bunny.]] |
| 85 | * EarsAsHair: "Do you like my ears better up or down?" . |
| 86 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: The Sanguine. |
| 87 | * GenkiGirl: She is cheerful, hyperactive, lovable and irrepressible ham. Babs is a high energy impressionist and comedienne who doesn't know when to quit. |
| 88 | * GoofyBuckteeth: Much like Buster and Bugs, she's a funny trickster rabbit with buckteeth. |
| 89 | * HypocriticalHumor: In the "Respect" music video for "Tiny Toon Music Television", she sings the titular song whilst doing all kinds of disrespectful things, like skating through a library whilst loudly singing and disrupting both a trial and ''a funeral for a kid's pet''. |
| 90 | * IrritationIsTheSincerestFormOfFlattery: An early sketch ("Born To Be Riled", in "The Buster Bunny Bunch") revolves around her friends becoming offended by her accurate-but-unflattering impressions of them, and paying her back by doing similar impressions of her. |
| 91 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Her impressions can come off as insensitive at times, but she genuinely means no harm by them. |
| 92 | * LargeHam: Big time. Buster will occasionally call her on it when she's really laying it on thick. |
| 93 | * LittleMissSnarker: Like Buster, she's sassy, but with a distinctly feminine flair. |
| 94 | * MassiveNumberedSiblings: Being a rabbit, she has dozens of younger brothers and sisters, only one of whom has his name revealed (Mortimer). |
| 95 | * MasterOfDisguise: She's a brilliant impressionist, able to imitate basically anyone's mannerism and voice perfectly. |
| 96 | * MockMillionaire: She occasionally disguises herself as a rich entrepreneur named Buffy Vanderbunny to fool her richer adversaries such as Montana Max and Roderick and Rhubella Rat. |
| 97 | * NiceMeanAndInbetween: The (relatively) Mean to Fifi's Nice and Shirley's In-Between. She is often sassy and insensitive towards her friends, usually [[InnocentlyInsensitive without meaning to be]]. |
| 98 | * NonMammalMammaries: ZigZagged Non-Human Mammal: |
| 99 | ** For the most part her figure didn't differ all that much from the male Buster, with a feminine shape only hinted at by her baggy top and flared skirt. One episode even had Babs wearing a hula skirt without a top and no sign of boobs at all. |
| 100 | ** However whenever episodes play up the ShipTease between her and Buster she suddenly sports a much more feminine figure. In "Thirteensomething" she's sporting outright ''cleavage''. |
| 101 | ** And of course, whenever she does impressions of BuxomBeautyStandard characters or celebrities like [[Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit Jessica Rabbit]] or Music/DollyParton the boobs come with it. |
| 102 | * OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Which is how she prefers it. |
| 103 | * PantslessMalesFullyDressedFemales: Played Straight as Fully Dressed to Buster and Plucksy's Pantsless. |
| 104 | * PhoneAholicTeenager: She is sometimes seen talking to Harriet, her unseen friend, on her phone, particularly in "I Was a Teenage Bunny-sitter" (part of "The ACME Home Shopping Show") when she is tasked with babysitting Duncan Potter. One of her Happy Meal toys is a flip car that she shares with Plucky. Her side is depicted as a phone receiver with rotary dials for wheels. |
| 105 | * PinkGirlBlueBoy: Pink Girl to Buster's Blue Boy. |
| 106 | * PinkMeansFeminine: She is a girl and she has pink fur. |
| 107 | * ThePrankster: A funny bunny who will do nearly anything for a laugh. |
| 108 | * RascallyRabbit: Buster and Babs Bunny take after Bugs in this fashion. |
| 109 | * RedOniBlueOni: The Red to Buster's Blue. |
| 110 | * SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: The manic and zany Energetic Girl to Buster's cool and calm Savvy Guy. |
| 111 | %%* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Literally. |
| 112 | * ShipTease: Babs is many times shown to have a crush on Buster Bunny. Sometimes Buster will nervously retreat from her advances, sometimes he returns her affection, and sometimes he even goes out of his way to impress her. |
| 113 | * SpeciesSurname: In spite of her and Buster having the same surname, the two of them always state "[[LampshadeHanging No relation]]" after introducing themselves. |
| 114 | * SuperSpeed: She has this special ability in ''Tiny Toon Adventures: ACME All-Stars'', alongside Buster and Little Beeper. |
| 115 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Carrots, much like Bugs Bunny. |
| 116 | * {{Tsundere}}: She's overall well-meaning, if a bit on the overly energetic side. On the other hand when she gets angry she gets ''fierce''. Being the object of her desires, Buster tends to experience both sides of this trope, being overly affectionate towards him in general but turns very sour if she feels slighted by him. |
| 117 | * TownGirls: The Butch (a sassy, energetic prankster), to Fifi's Femme (flirty and romantic), and Shirley's Neither (GranolaGirl). |
| 118 | * WonderWomanWannabe: In "The Just-us League of Supertoons", her superheroine alter-ego is Wonder Babs, complete with an outfit nearly identical to [[Franchise/WonderWoman Wonder Woman's]], as well as a lasso. |

| 122 | !Plucky Duck |
| 123 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screen_shot_2020_10_14_at_121614_am.png]] |
| 124 | [[caption-width-right:350:"I know a good, slightly tarnished soul. A steal at only $200000!"]] |
| 125 | |
| 126 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart: WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck (specifically the sarcastic, egotistical, attention-seeking Daffy of later cartoons). |
| 127 | -->Voiced by: Creator/JoeAlaskey (English), Creator/KoichiYamadera (Japanese), Juan Carlos Vazquez (Latin American Spanish/1st voice), Orlando Noguera (Latin American Spanish/2nd voice), Luq Hamet (French) |
| 128 | |
| 129 | A green-feathered, arrogant, narcissistic, bungling young drake, Plucky wants to be the metaphorical leader of the pack, but his arrogance far outshines his competence. Though he craves attention, he rarely gets it, at least not for the things he wants to get it for. |
| 130 | ---- |
| 131 | * AntiHero: He's one of the main characters, but is often self-centered, greedy, and egotistical. |
| 132 | * AllMenArePerverts: In "Thirteensomething", when Plucky tells Shirley his parents are out of town, he asks her if she wants to "play house" and Shirley kicks him in retaliation. |
| 133 | * AssholeVictim: He will get the worst punishment for whatever jerkish action he enacts. |
| 134 | * AttentionWhore: He's basically a exact carbon copy and clone of Daffy, possibly more Daffy than a unique take of Bugs and Porky which Buster, Babs and Hamton represent. |
| 135 | * BadassAdorable: Like Buster and Babs who are younger and cuter versions of Bugs Bunny, Plucky is the same of Daffy Duck who may look like a pitiful ButtMonkey, [[LetsGetDangerous but is shown to be pretty badass when the time calls for it]]. |
| 136 | * BatmanParody: In several episodes, one of his superhero alter-egos is Batduck, complete with an outfit nearly identical to [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Batman's]]. |
| 137 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Usually whenever he's the protagonist of a short. The episode "Migrant Mallard" comes to mind. |
| 138 | * CowardlyLion: He's been known to run in the face of danger plenty of times, but just as often he will [[TookALevelinBadass take five thousand levels in badass]] and help out the others when things get dire. |
| 139 | * TheChewToy: Prone to getting hit by an AnvilOnHead and many other outright abuses. The amount of constant pain, bad luck and wince-worthy situations that get inflicted on him rival Daffy Duck and it's made all the worse when you consider it's a child getting run over by cars, beaten by professional boxers, and crushed under 700lb pigs and sumo wrestlers. |
| 140 | * CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: When he gets a chance to shine, he REALLY shines, especially when crossing blades with Montana Max. |
| 141 | * DeadpanSnarker: Like his mentor, he is incredibly sarcastic and witty, especially towards the rabbit duo. |
| 142 | * DependingOnTheWriter: He switches between being an arrogant, self-aggrandizing {{Jerkass}}, a caring and loyal (if somewhat snarky) JerkWithAHeartOfGold who pals around with the other three main characters, or [[TakeAThirdOption both]]. |
| 143 | * TheDogBitesBack: He gets revenge on Babs for raining down anvils on him in "The Anvil Chorus" by having anvils drop on her in the ChristmasEpisode "It's a Wonderful Tiny Toons Christmas Special". |
| 144 | * EveryoneHasStandards: The episode "The Acme Bowl" shows that for all his willingness to sell his friends out for his own gain, if given the choice, [[TrueCompanions he would]] ''[[TrueCompanions still]]'' [[TrueCompanions pick his friends at Acme Looniversity over the cheating, rotten, wealthy snobs of Perfecto Prep]]. This is weaponized in the episode when he and Buster pull a FakeDefector gambit against them knowing they would cheat during the game. |
| 145 | * {{Flanderization}}: In shorts where Hamton is the protagonist, Plucky becomes much more of a DirtyCoward who only looks out for himself. |
| 146 | * FoulWaterfowl: He is a selfish, egotistical prick, though he can be a JerkWithAHeartOfGold at times. |
| 147 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: The Choleric. |
| 148 | * TheGadfly: He's played this role to both his friends and enemies alike more often than not, particularly Hamton or Montana Max. |
| 149 | * GreenAndMean: He has green feathers and while he's not evil, he is selfish, egotistical, and many times, willing to throw Buster, Babs, Hamton, or any combination of the three under the bus for his own sake. |
| 150 | * HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: He wears a white tank top, but no pants. |
| 151 | * HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: |
| 152 | ** In the episode, "Citizen Max", Monty pays Plucky to help him win the school election against Buster. After Buster was wrongfully expelled from Acme Looniversity, Plucky later poses as "Deep Quack" to prove to Buster and Babs that Monty framed the former for cheating and helps them expose Monty for the fraud that he is. |
| 153 | ** In the ''[[VideoGame/TinyToonAdventuresBustersHiddenTreasure Buster's Hidden Treasure]]'' video game, Plucky is fought twice; the first time as his normal BrainwashedAndCrazy self, then later as his superhero alter-ego, the Toxic Revenger, denying his true identity. Buster manages to snap him out of it by threatening not to help him with future homeworks. |
| 154 | * HoistByHisOwnPetard: Whenever Plucky makes a dastardly deed, they wind up biting him in the tail feathers. |
| 155 | * HiddenDepths: Hinted at -- Plucky will sometimes make erudite references and seems to admire Shakespeare. However, it's entirely possible this is just him putting on airs. |
| 156 | ** Although he has shown himself to be great at clog-dancing (as seen in "Duck in the Muck") and art (such as in "Oh, for Art's Sake"). The episode "Thirteensomething" also reveals he is capable of compassion and empathy, although this is abruptly cut off when he starts flirting with Shirley after she grips him by the shoulders. |
| 157 | * IncomingHam: His intro gallery-sequence screams this. |
| 158 | * InterspeciesRomance: With Shirley the Loon. In "The Return of Pluck Twacey", he also swoons over [[FemmeFatale Hata Mari]], [[MythologyGag the pigeon from "Plane Daffy"]], whilst in the "Istanbul (Not Constantinople)" music video from "Tiny Toon Music Television", he's shown swooning over the caliph's cute (human) daughter. |
| 159 | * IronicName: His name is Plucky, although [[DirtyCoward he's usually seen being anything but]]. |
| 160 | * ItsAllAboutMe: Just like Daffy, he's very egotistical and usually puts himself before others. |
| 161 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: An egotistical jerk who, excluding certain occasions, cares very little about the others. He also has more than a few PetTheDog moments and has shown on occasion that he cares deeply about his friends, such as in "Pluck O' the Irish" where he refuses to leave the castle unless Hamton (who has been [[TakenForGranite turned to stone]]) is turned back to normal, and in "Slaughterhouse Jive", he wastes no time in alerting Buster and Babs that Hamton is going to be turned into ground meat and readily jumps in to save his friend. |
| 162 | * KarmaHoudiniWarranty: He seems to get away with a lot in the actual series. But gets kicked around by several characters in the specials. |
| 163 | * KarmicButtMonkey: Zigzagged. Since he's modeled after his idol, Daffy Duck, he is prone to suffering whatever bad luck and frequent physical abuse whenever he's at his worse with his selfishness and egotism. However, even when he's not being a smug jerk, fate is always against him. In "Tiny Toon Music Television" for instance, not only does the caliph's cute daughter turn out to be [[TheDreaded Elmyra]], but ''she'' breaks the jade duck statuette he retrieved. Also, ''he'' [[MisplacedRetribution gets punished by being forced to serve as a stand-in for it]]. |
| 164 | * TheLancer: He tends to play second fiddle to Buster. |
| 165 | * LargeHam: Let's just say his voice is inversely proportionate to his popularity and leave it at that. |
| 166 | * LoveableRogue: Whenever he's the protagonist of a cartoon, he's softened into one of these. |
| 167 | * MeanCharacterNiceActor: In "Buster and Babs Go Hawaiian", he is shown offcamera to be the reverse of how he usually acts in cartoons. |
| 168 | * MilesGloriosus: |
| 169 | ** Whenever he's portrayed as a leader, such as in "Duck Trek" or "Kon Ducki", he's built up to be level-headed and eager to look danger in the eye. When danger rears its ugly head, he instantly panics and leaves others to deal with it. |
| 170 | ** Subverted with his alter ego, the Toxic Revenger, who proves to be an effective superhero. |
| 171 | * {{Narcissist}}: In the first episode, he proves that he can play a lover by delivering a romantic overture to a hand mirror. |
| 172 | * NiceMeanAndInbetween: The Mean to Hamton's Nice and Buster's In-Between. He acts as the narcissistic AttentionWhore. |
| 173 | * NoisyDuck: He is a {{Cloudcuckoolander}} who is [[LargeHam quite dramatic and loud]] with his SpeechImpediment, just like his mentor. |
| 174 | * NoRespectGuy: On the rare occasion he does show legitimate talent (such as his silly little dance in "Buster and the Wolverine"), he still tends to be shot down almost immediately. There's {{Break the Haughty}} and then there's this. |
| 175 | * OnlySaneMan: Acts as this to Hamton's family in the ''How I Spent My Vacation'' film. |
| 176 | * PantslessMalesFullyDressedFemales: Played Straight Pantsless along with Buster Bunny to Babs Bunny's Fully Dressed. |
| 177 | * PluckyComicRelief: Bonus points for being actually named "Plucky". It says something that he still manages to be recognizable as this despite every character technically being a comic character. |
| 178 | * PrimaDonnaDirector: He is shown to be this in the "Making of" segment of "Kon Ducki" when he oversees production of the titular film. He verbally and physically abuses the staff, gives outlandish demands, and only starts acting nice when he realizes he’s on camera. |
| 179 | * QuackingUp: Downplayed. As the young protege of Daffy, Plucky shares his mentor's greed, selfishness, hunger for the spotlight, and bad luck; however, Plucky makes up for this with his loyalty for his friends, PetTheDog moments and CloudCuckooLander tendencies, something the Friz Freleng/Chuck Jones-era Daffy lacks. |
| 180 | * RidiculousProcrastinator: He has procrastinated on his homework many times, and has a different solution for each time he procrastinated on his homework, whether it be building a TimeMachine, getting Buster to teach him the basics of animation, PlayingSick, [[FileMixUp switching his test with Egghead Jr.'s]], or pausing a dog and cat fight and trying to pass it off as a painting. |
| 181 | * SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: Manly Man to Hamton's Sensitive Guy. |
| 182 | * {{Sidekick}}: Hired as such to Buster and Babs, much to his humiliation. |
| 183 | * SmallNameBigEgo: Like Daffy in his post-WesternAnimation/ScrewySquirrel appearances, his arrogance and hunger for the spotlight is one of his most defining traits. |
| 184 | * SpeciesSurname: He's a duck and his last name is Duck. |
| 185 | * SpeechImpediment: Like Daffy, Plucky has a lisp, albeit lateral. |
| 186 | * SpinoffBabies: His baby-self starred in a few shorts, and became somewhat of an EnsembleDarkHorse in the memories of fans, to the point that he even cameoed a couple times in ''Animaniacs''. |
| 187 | * ThrowTheDogABone: He gets repeatedly hit with anvils in "Ducklahoma" as payback for trashing Buster's original production and demanding a showcase. After getting repeatedly hit during his musical numbers, Plucky apologizes and begs for some relief--saying there must be someone else on this show more deserving of this treatment than him. So, Buster cues Elmyra's song. |
| 188 | * TookALevelInBadass: In "The Acme Bowl", determined not to let Acme Loo down, he manages to dodge the Perfeto Prep's football players and score a winning touchdown. |
| 189 | * TookALevelInJerkass: While Plucky has been a jerk on many occasions, it's exaggerated in "It's a Wonderful Tiny Toons Christmas Special", where in an alternate world since he's now the star of ''Tiny Toon Adventures'', he abuses the other toons as his [[ButtMonkey Butt Monkeys]], but he abuses ''Babs'' the most by having endless anvils drop on her [[LackOfEmpathy without having a shred of remorse for his actions]] and has his lackeys throw Buster out when he doesn't know him. |
| 190 | * ToothyBird: He has teeth. |
| 191 | * UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: He's usually mean, greedy, and selfish and sells his friends out (especially Hamton) and [[KarmicButtMonkey deserves most of the karma he gets]]. |
| 192 | * WithFriendsLikeThese: He's sold out his friend, Hamton, on several occasions. |
| 193 | ** He's also been sold out by Buster and Babs on a few occasions as well (not like he's done any better). |
| 194 | * YankTheDogsChain: Happens quite a lot on the show, even if the tactics he used to get what he wanted weren't exactly malicious. The worst example of this is in the [[{{WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventuresSpringBreakSpecial}} Spring Break special]]. |
| 195 | * ZanyScheme: He always concocts these, although obviously, things never go as planned. |

| 201 | [[caption-width-right:350:"I clean things and react to characters funnier than I am."]] |
| 202 | |
| 203 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart: WesternAnimation/PorkyPig. |
| 204 | -->Voiced by: Creator/DonMessick (1990-1995), Creator/BillyWest (''Toonenstein: Dare to Scare!'' and ''Defenders of the Universe'' video games) (English), You Yoshimura (Japanese/1st voice), Shunichi Sugawara (Japanese/2nd voice), Jose Gomez (Latin American Spanish/1st voice), Juan Guzman (Latin American Spanish/2nd voice), Patrick Guillemin (French) |
| 205 | |
| 206 | A somewhat milquetoast young pig, Hamton is the unabashed Straight Man of the protagonists; not wacky himself, but capable of generating laughs by playing foil to the more weird and manic outbursts of his friends. He's a nice guy, but a bit of a pushover, tending to be shoved around by his friends -- especially the more extroverted and insensitive Plucky. |
| 207 | ---- |
| 208 | * ArtEvolution: Compare to how he looks in season 1 to how he looks in season 2 onward. |
| 209 | * BarefootCartoonAnimal: He wears a pair of overalls and no shoes. |
| 210 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: He's very sweet-natured, and usually tries to avoid conflict, but DO NOT push him too far. Seriously. Just don't. |
| 211 | * BigEater: The one thing he does share with animated works' usual depictions of pigs is that he loves to eat. |
| 212 | * BlueIsHeroic: He wears blue overalls and is a NiceGuy. |
| 213 | * ButtMonkey: Just like his mentor. Though not to the same extent as Plucky or Furrball, lots of bad things still happen to him. Not that he always deserves it, considering he's one of the sweetest characters of this show. |
| 214 | * ExtremeDoormat: Usually to Plucky's antics. |
| 215 | * DiscoDan: He prefers outdated music, such as 1920s jazz or disco, as opposed to the comparatively modern rap scene. Ironically, as of the [[UsefulNotes/TheNewTens 2010s]] and beyond, he would be seen as trendy. |
| 216 | * FourFingeredHands: In season 1, Hamton was mostly seen with three fingers on each hand. Season 2 onward now gives him four. |
| 217 | * FourTemperamentEnsemble: The Melancholic. |
| 218 | * HypercompetentSidekick: Whenever Plucky messes up and chickens out, Hamton will deal with the problem and pick up the pieces in the drawing of a breath. |
| 219 | * TheImmune: In "Washingtoon", Plucky helps the Adult Coalition Against Funny Cartoons Chairperson drain all the tooniness from ACME Acres in favor of an educational show where he is the star. When Elmyra and Dizzy are affected, they respectively become a proper pet caretaker and a health fanatic. Hamton then arrives to his bedroom in a maid's outfit and says "Oh, boy! I'm gonna clean my room!". After he is affected, he is more or less the same as he was before; a neat freak. |
| 220 | * InconsistentSpelling: The correct spelling is "Hamton", though some fans still somehow hear a "p" in the middle. It might also have to do with the fact that Hamton's name was actually misspelled in one of the show's credits as Hampton. |
| 221 | * InformedJudaism: In "It's a Wonderful Tiny Toons Christmas Special", a menorah can be seen in the window of his house, implying that his family is Jewish. Most likely, this is meant to be a joke, as they do not keep kosher, as Hamton once tried to cook a lobster, and indeed, they aren't even kosher themselves, being pork. |
| 222 | * InterspeciesRomance: He has dated Fifi, a skunk, a few times. |
| 223 | * {{Leitmotif}}: More often than not, Hamton is musically represented by "Old [=McDonald=] Had a Farm". |
| 224 | * NeatFreak: Contrary to the usual depiction of pigs in fiction, he detests sloppiness and germs. |
| 225 | * NiceGuy: Like Porky Pig. |
| 226 | * NiceMeanAndInbetween: The Nice to Plucky's Mean and Buster's In-Between. He typically acts nice and sensitive. |
| 227 | * OnlyOneFindsItFun: In "Henny Youngman Day", Henny Youngman substitutes for a sick Daffy Duck, and bores the class to the point of [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere them leaving him]]. Not only is Hamton the only student who likes Henny's jokes, but also the only one who stays in class for the whole episode to hear them. |
| 228 | * OnlySaneMan: Will usually play this role to Plucky's egotistical antics and everyone else who are funnier than him. |
| 229 | * PantslessMalesFullyDressedFemales: Inverted as he was wearing overalls as a fully clothes to Fifi and Shirely's pantsless. |
| 230 | * APigNamedPorkchop: His name is a play on the word "Ham", similar to Porky Pig. |
| 231 | * ThePrimaDonna: In "Buster and Babs Go Hawaiian", he acts like a NiceCharacterMeanActor, especially in regards to having an epic role in a cartoon being pulled out from under him by Buster and Babs. |
| 232 | * RoughOveralls: Hamton wears a pair of blue overalls, but no shirt, and is from a lower class--though clean and fussy--family. This is also in contrast to his mentor, WesternAnimation/PorkyPig [[HalfDressedCartoonAnimal who wears a blue jacket but no pants]]. |
| 233 | * SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: Sensitive Guy to Plucky's Manly Man. |
| 234 | * {{Sidekick}}: When Plucky is hired as Buster and Bab's sidekick, he complains, ''"Hamton's'' a sidekick! He has all the earmarks of a sidekick!" and promptly [[VisualPun pulls Hamton's ear to reveal the word "sidekick"]]. Interestingly, Hamton ended up being Plucky's sidekick in a lot of the shorts, most notably the Franchise/{{Batman}} parody, in which he plays "Decoy", Batduck's answer to ComicBook/{{Robin}}. |
| 235 | * SlasherSmile: Sports a ''surprisingly'' effective one at the end of the "Particle Man" video. |
| 236 | * SpeciesSurname: His last name is Pig. |
| 237 | * StraightMan: The trope title is actually used when he applied to join the cast because "I react to characters funnier than I am." |
| 238 | * VocalEvolution: After he was recast, Billy West initially gave him a nasally, congested tone that was closer to Don Messick's original voice. In ''Defenders of the Universe'', West's take became less congested, and more upbeat and rubbery in inflection. |
| 239 | * WithFriendsLikeThese: Despite Plucky ostensibly being Hamton's best friend, Plucky routinely forces Hamton into a reckless course of action, then promptly abandons him when things go south. |

| 245 | [[caption-width-right:350:"Party!"]] |
| 246 | |
| 247 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart: The Tasmanian Devil. |
| 248 | -->Voiced by: Creator/MauriceLaMarche (English), Shunsuke Takamiya (Japanese), Carmelo Fernandez (Latin American Spanish), Michel Modo (French) |
| 249 | |
| 250 | A hyperactive young "Tasmanian Devil", Dizzy is a fairly one-dimensional character; he likes having a good time, whether that involves partying or just stuffing his face with absolutely anything. He does have a bit of a temper, though. He's a secondary character, mostly relegated to starring in shorts alongside the others rather than starring in his own stories. |
| 251 | ---- |
| 252 | * AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal: His only article of clothing is a yellow propeller beanie. |
| 253 | * AlliterativeName: Given name and surname both begin with D. |
| 254 | * AntiVillain: It's hard to remember that he's actually supposed to be one of the show's ''bad guys'', even being freed from the box of monstrous characters alongside Elmyra and Montana Max in the pilot. |
| 255 | * BigEater: Like Taz. |
| 256 | * ButtMonkey: Very often. He suffers a lot of AmusingInjuries. |
| 257 | * ChickMagnet: When he's not acting like his adult counterpart, Dizzy is usually in the company of hot, human teenage girls who are crazy about him. |
| 258 | * ExtremeOmnivore: To the point where the male characters often play a game with Dizzy called "Will Dizzy Eat It?" |
| 259 | * InexplicablyTailless: Unlike his ''Looney Tunes counterpart'', he lacks a visible tail. |
| 260 | * PropellerHatOfWhimsy: Dizzy's propeller beanie, besides being a symbol of his ability to spin like a tornado similar to his ''Looney Tunes'' counterpart, is a symbol of his hyperactive party animal personality. |
| 261 | * TookALevelInKindness: In the pilot, he's actually introduced as an antagonistic character. He eventually grows into the more friendly party animal that he's better known as. |
| 262 | * TornadoMove: Unsurprisingly, he spins around in his own personal tornado like Taz does. |
| 263 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Pizza rolls. |
| 264 | * VolatileTasmanianDevil: While nowhere near aggressive as his ''Looney Tunes'' counterpart, he is a hyperactive party animal with a [[BigEater massive appetite]] and a bit of a temper. He's still counted as one of the antagonists in the show along with Elmyra and Montana Max. |
| 265 | * WildCard: Even the friendlier "party animal" Dizzy had his antagonistic moments, usually when he let his temper or appetite get the better of him (or when he got the homework assignment "eat a bunny"). |

| 269 | !Montana Max |
| 270 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screen_shot_2020_10_14_at_125129_am.png]] |
| 271 | [[caption-width-right:350:"What? You expect me to have morals?"]] |
| 272 | |
| 273 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart: WesternAnimation/YosemiteSam. |
| 274 | -->Voiced by: Creator/DannyCooksey (English), Creator/UraraTakano (Japanese), Edilú Martínez (Latin American Spanish), Creator/EmmanuelGarijo (French), Luq Hamet (French/replacement voice) |
| 275 | |
| 276 | The primary male antagonist of the show, a human kid whose ultra-rich family gives him a lot of finance-based weight to throw around. Selfish, greedy and a vicious, evil monster, he takes great pleasure in making everyone else utterly miserable whenever he can. |
| 277 | ---- |
| 278 | * AssholeVictim: While Monty gets [[ButtMonkey put through the wringer a lot]], he usually has it coming. |
| 279 | * AlliterativeName: Both parts of his name begin with the letter M. |
| 280 | * AffectionHatingKid: A good example is in "Buster's Guide to Dating". Monty interrupts the show to announce dating is disgusting and demand they do a real show now. |
| 281 | * BadSanta: His student film; "A Montana Max Christmas". We see Santa, played by Monty, pull a sledge hammer on Buster and Babs. The bunnies cut the film off before we see any actual violence though. |
| 282 | * BigBad: He's the main villain and FinalBoss of almost every ''Tiny Toons'' video game ever made. |
| 283 | * BigBadEnsemble: He and Elmyra are the show's most prominent antagonists, though he's way more malicious than the latter. |
| 284 | * CaptiveDate: |
| 285 | ** In "Sepulveda Boulevard", he is tied up and forced to be Elmyra's live-in boyfriend, and re-write her awful cartoon script. |
| 286 | ** In "Buster's Guide to Dating", Buster and Babs force him to be a contestant on their dating game show. He "wins" a date with Elmyra which consists of her locking him in a rabbit cage. |
| 287 | * CorruptCorporateExecutive: He owns a number of rather destructive businesses, which Plucky often tries to stop as the "Toxic Revenger". |
| 288 | * DarkerAndEdgier: A mild example, but the two shorts which he is the main star of stand out for their considerably mean-spirited tone. Given Monty's nature, it’s hard to feel sorry for what he goes through. |
| 289 | * EcocidalAntagonist: He owns a number of environmentally-unfriendly factories that produce frivolous things such as ice cream spoons and donut holes, which Plucky Duck, as his superhero alter-ego, the Toxic Revenger, tries to shut down. |
| 290 | * EntitledBastard: Believes that the amount of money he can throw around makes him better than anyone else and deserving of whatever he wants, and says as much whenever he faces the slightest resistance to his objectives. |
| 291 | * EvilFormerFriend: As stated below, Monty was once friends with Buster until money turned him into a complete {{jerkass}}. |
| 292 | * EvilLaugh: Quite often laughs when things go his way. |
| 293 | * FinalBoss: In most of the video games. |
| 294 | * GirlsHaveCooties: As Buster once said of him; "He'd rather have a lobotomy than go out with a girl." |
| 295 | * GradeSchoolCEO: Is sometimes shown owning various companies, especially in the Toxic Revenger episodes. |
| 296 | * HairTriggerTemper. Like Yosemite Sam. |
| 297 | * HumansAreBastards: He's one of the few human characters on the show and is a complete jerk. |
| 298 | * IJustWantToHaveFriends: He spends a fortune on Rent-A-Friend, bringing them in by the bus load for his birthday. However, Max's abusive nature means he goes through them fast. He goes through multiple friends one rainy afternoon with one running off screaming "I am not an animal! I am a human being!" fleeing Max's estate with Max dressed like Robinhood with a bow and arrow. Max complains they haven't played William Tell yet. His reputation gets so bad that [[BabysittersNightmare even Rent-A-Friend can't find anyone willing to spend time with him]] (except Buster, who in typical rabbit-style take this opportunity to payback Monty for all its worth). |
| 299 | * IgnoredAesop: In "The Acme Acres Zone" he has a nightmare that he is a rabbit. When Elmyra is going to adopt him he begs to wake up, promising to be kind and generous to rabbits from now on. When he does wake up, Buster and Babs knock on his door asking for spare carrots. His reaction; "You have the nerve to ask me for carrots after what I've been through!?" |
| 300 | * InSeriesNickname: He's usually just referred to as "Monty" rather than "Montana". |
| 301 | * ItsAllAboutMe: Is extremely narcissistic, which apparently isn't helped by his parents' raising of him, to the point of the family's doorbell singing out ''"Monty!"'' |
| 302 | * {{Jerkass}}: One of the best examples of this is his owning a toy store called Toys 'R' Mine at one point. Any kid who bought something there had to deal with the heartbreak of the giant Max cutout atop the sign ''stealing it back'' as they exited. |
| 303 | ** Max picks on just about anyone, for no real reason other than to get a kick out of it. |
| 304 | * KarmicButtMonkey: A lot of his suffering is a result of his mean-spiritedness coming back to bite him in very big ways whenever he goes off the deep-end. |
| 305 | * {{Kidanova}}: In the "Love Disconnection", he's initially all fired up to go out on a date with the "cute daughter" of his parents' friends. He loses his enthusiasm when he learns that said "cute daughter" is none other than Elmyra. |
| 306 | * {{Leitmotif}}: "The Gold Diggers Song (We're in the Money)". |
| 307 | * MilesGloriosus: He'll push people around and bully them when he thinks he’s got the upper hand. The moment someone stands up to him, he falls to pieces and runs away. |
| 308 | * MythologyGag: According to the series intro episode, Montana Max was originally pitched as the protagonist, but was rejected, and Buster & Babs' success at getting their own show is part of the reason why he hates them. This is a tongue-in-cheek reference to the fact that WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck was the "flagbearer" of the original WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes, until that position was stolen from him by WesternAnimation/BugsBunny. |
| 309 | * NiceMeanAndInBetween: Of the three human students at ACME Loo, he's the Mean to Mary's Nice and Elmyra's In-Between. He's the richest and meanest kid in ACME Acres and enjoys making the lives of others miserable for his own pleasure. |
| 310 | * NoIndoorVoice: Full-fledged at first, but [[VillainDecay fizzled off a bit as time went on]]. |
| 311 | * PetTheDog: He has his moments, but those are usually towards Elmyra and no one else. |
| 312 | * RagsToRiches: "Citizen Max" states that his family used to be poor. |
| 313 | * RichBastard: He's obscenely wealthy, but uses his fortune as an excuse to pick on the other characters and make their lives miserable. |
| 314 | * RichInDollarsPoorInSense: Monty is incredibly easy to trick. |
| 315 | * ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: He sometimes bribes people to get his way, one such person being the host of the game show Win, Loose, or Kerplowey. |
| 316 | * SpoiledBrat: He is whiny, entitled and does everything he can to get his way. |
| 317 | * StartOfDarkness: As chronicled in [[Film/CitizenKane "Citizen Max"]], Monty UsedToBeASweetKid back when his family was poor. He even used to be friends with Buster Bunny. Unfortunately, when his family won the lottery, Max turned into the money-grubbing sociopath the rest of Acme Acres knows and loathes. |
| 318 | * TokenRichStudent: The only rich kid at Acme Loo. |
| 319 | * TookALevelInKindness: He became less villainous as time went on, even being the protagonist of some cartoons. He was still a bit of an egotistical and materialistic jerk, but not exactly villainous. |
| 320 | * VillainDecay: Monty became less threatening as a villain as time went on, even becoming the protagonist of two shorts. On the show, this was due to [[BelatedChildDiscipline his parents asserting themselves into his life]]. In real life, this was due to Danny Cooksey, his voice actor, complaining about always having to play the bad guy. |
| 321 | * VocalEvolution: His voice actor being 14 when the show began, Max's voice got a little deeper in the later episodes. |

| 328 | |
| 329 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart: WesternAnimation/ElmerFudd. |
| 330 | -->Voiced by: Creator/CreeSummer (English), Chie Kojiro (Japanese), Josefina Nuñez (Latin Americam Spanish/1st voice), Giset Blanco (Latin American Spanish/2nd voice), Véronique Alycia (French) |
| 331 | |
| 332 | The primary female antagonist of the show, in contrast to Montana Max, Elmyra does not ''intend'' to be a bad guy. She is a very loving girl, with a huge fondness for animals. She is just a complete and utter ''moron'' who fails to realise that she is being too rough and clumsy with her pets. This results in a disturbing amount of on-screen injuries -- and off-screen implied fatalities -- and makes her more hated by her animal toon classmates than Montana Max. They can easily pay Max back in kind, but Elmyra's obliviousness means that she lacks malice, which means that their attempts to get her back usually don't work. |
| 333 | ---- |
| 334 | * AllGirlsWantBadBoys: She likes [[RichBastard Montana Max]], and in ''WesternAnimation/PinkyElmyraAndTheBrain'' she has a crush on a slob named Rudy Mookich who is also a {{Jerkass}}. |
| 335 | * AmbiguouslyBi: Elmyra has a crush on Monty and one short called "Can't Buy Me Love" has Elmyra meet an evil little girl called Rhoda. Elmyra sees hearts and positively MELTS when Rhoda says she'll let her be her best friend, and spends the rest of the picture bending over backwards to make Rhoda like her. |
| 336 | * AndCallHimGeorge: She provides the page image. The treatment of her pets seriously harms them and in some cases even kills them. |
| 337 | * AntiVillain: Type IV, especially when in comparison with Montana Max and Gotcha Grabmore. She's never malicious in her treatment of her pets, but she's too stupid, irresponsible, enthusiastic and/or crazy to know better than what she's doing. |
| 338 | * AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: Becomes a giant in this [[Recap/TinyToonAdventuresS1E64KACMETV episode]] |
| 339 | * BabysitterFromHell: When she babysits Drooly Davey, he's terrified of her. She isn't malicious, just too stupid to properly look after him. Much like with her pets. |
| 340 | * BabyTalk: It's rare that she ''doesn't'' talk like this. |
| 341 | * BigBad: She is portrayed as the main antagonist in the Spring Break special. |
| 342 | * ChronicPetKiller: Ironically, despite her good intentions, she was far more successful in killing wabbits than her counterpart. |
| 343 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Has a pretty bizarre interpretation of how the world works, seeing that she is unaware that her affections towards animals are harmful to them. She is not learning from her mistakes. |
| 344 | * CompositeCharacter: |
| 345 | ** While her name and appearance are obviously based on Elmer Fudd, her personality of adoring animals while obliviously causing them serious harm makes her more like Hugo the Abominable Snowman. |
| 346 | ** She also resembles Suzanne from ''A Kiddies Kitty'', almost to the point of being a SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute. |
| 347 | * TheCuckoolanderWasRight: In [[WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventuresSpringBreakSpecial the Spring Break Special]], Elmyra tries to capture Buster because she is under the impression that he is the EasterBunny. At the end of the special, after Buster and Babs manage to evade Elmyra and return to ACME Acres, it is revealed that [[spoiler:Buster really is the Easter Bunny, as his locker is filled with numerous baskets of Easter eggs]]. |
| 348 | * DependingOnTheWriter: Whether she's the villain of a story or just a fellow student who can (somewhat) casually interact with others will vary depending on the episode. |
| 349 | * DisabilityImmunity: In the short, "Drooley Davey" from the episode, "The Wide World of Elmyra", she's too stupid to ''even feel pain'' or at least not realizing [[BrickJoke she's hurt until later in the short.]] |
| 350 | * TheDitz: Even more so than Elmer; exaggerated when she [[WesternAnimation/PinkyElmyraAndTheBrain was incorporated into]] ''WesternAnimation/PinkyAndTheBrain'', where she'd sometimes devolve into saying "Chockit Pie!". |
| 351 | * TheDreaded: ''Everybody'' in Acme Acres is afraid of Elmyra. [[EvenEvilHasStandards Even Montana Max]]. Even [[WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}} the Warners]] are scared of her, almost as much as they are of [[Series/BarneyAndFriends Baloney]]. |
| 352 | * DumbassHasAPoint: In ''Prom-ise Her Anything'', where Babs was anxiously wondering if Buster will ever ask her to the prom, Elmyra pointed out there's nothing wrong with girls asking boys to the prom (granted her idea of asking Max out to the prom left some things to be desired, she still made a good point). |
| 353 | * EveryoneHasStandards: |
| 354 | ** Despite her [[LethallyStupid lethal stupidity]], Elmyra won't intentionally harm animals. For example, in ''Whale's Tales'', when Elmyra finds out whales are used to make cosmetics (as in they're made ''from'' whales), she's so horrified, she faints. |
| 355 | ** While she may be an animal lover, there are some animals that even she doesn't think are cute and cuddly; |
| 356 | *** She thinks that Hamton is a [[MessyPig dirty pig in need of a bath]], which is ironic since Hamton is [[NeatFreak obsessed with cleanliness]]. |
| 357 | *** In "Slugfest" (part of "Mr. Popular's Rules of Cool"), she is revealed to hate slugs and tries to squish some with a broom. |
| 358 | *** In "The Search for Bigbutt" (part of "K-ACME TV"), she manages to find Bigbutt, a [[BigfootSasquatchAndYeti bigfoot-like creature]] with a ComicallyOversizedButt. When she sees him, she says "Never mind." and leaves. |
| 359 | * FieryRedhead: She has red hair, but she only gets mad when her "pets" try to get away. |
| 360 | * {{Flanderization}}: A rare second hand example. Elmyra is Elmer Fudd for the next generation but with far greater stupidity and none of her predecessor's everyman charm. |
| 361 | * {{Foil}}: To Elmer Fudd. He is a hunter who is unable to pose an actual threat to an animal; she is a little girl who unintentionally harms animals while demonstrating her love for them. |
| 362 | * FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling: In the two "Elmyra's Family" episodes, she is seen as the foolish sibling to her little brother Duncan's responsible sibling. |
| 363 | * GenkiGirl: Often very cheerful and energetic. |
| 364 | * TheGlomp: Gee, wonder why she's TheDreaded? |
| 365 | * GoKartingWithBowser: While normally an antagonist (albeit unintentionally), there are instances where Elmyra is shown to be a good friend to the Tiny Toons, especially Furrball at times. This is especially the case in school-based plots where she's more likely to interact with the animal toons as fellow students and peers rather than as potential pets. |
| 366 | * HanlonsRazor: Her actions are not malicious but they do a lot of damage. In keeping with the corollary about sufficiently advanced ignorance, she's probably got one of the biggest kill counts out of any Warner Bros animated characters that isn't some one-off. |
| 367 | * HoistByHisOwnPetard: In her skit in the "Night Ghoulery" special, she creates a FrankensteinsMonster "super-pet" that can finally take her level of loving. It promptly proceeds to start loving her back with the ''exact'' same kind of dimwitted, over-enthusiastic to the point of painful "love" as she gives all her pets. |
| 368 | * HollywoodToneDeaf: She's a terrible singer voiced by ''Cree Summer''. |
| 369 | * IdiotHoudini: As per the "rules" of Looney Tunes, the fact that she means well and her antagonism comes from the fact she's an absolute moron prevents her from getting the same level of karmic retribution as more deliberate villains get, even though she's ultimately more dangerous than they are. |
| 370 | * ImplacableWoman: She can not be escaped. |
| 371 | * KiddieKid: Despite being in the same class as the other teenage toons, Elmyra acts far younger than she should. Her subplot in ''How I Spent My Vacation'' shows that she even sits in a baby's car seat and is surrounded by many baby toys when she and her parents visit the ACME Wild Safari Zoo. |
| 372 | * {{Leitmotif}}: She is musically represented by "I Went to the Animal Fair". |
| 373 | * LethallyStupid: In contrast to Elmer's TooDumbToLive. |
| 374 | * MadLove: Towards Montana Max and also to her pets in general. |
| 375 | * NaiveAnimalLover: Her undying affection for animals keeps her oblivious to how dangerous some of them are, especially those with sharp teeth and claws. When she does manage to get her hands on them, however, they find out from the way she treats them that she's even more dangerous than they are. |
| 376 | * NiceGirl: In spite of her obsession towards animals, Elmyra is a truly kind hearted girl who means well despite the damage she causes. |
| 377 | * NiceMeanAndInBetween: Of the three human students at ACME Loo, she's the In-Between to Mary's Nice and Monty's Mean. She means no harm towards animals but is very oblivious to how dangerous she is to them. |
| 378 | * NightmareFetishist: In "Toons from the Crypt", although initially terrified of her zombie pets coming back to get her, she quickly stops caring and is just happy to have them back. At the episode's end, it's got her hopes up so much that she runs off to her pet cemetary to dig them all up herself! |
| 379 | * ObliviouslyEvil: She has no idea that showing her affection to animals often kills them. |
| 380 | * PetDressUp: Elmyra has done this many times. |
| 381 | ** In "Hare Today Gone Tomorrow", when she makes Buster her pet, she dresses him in baby clothes. |
| 382 | ** In "No Deposit, No Return of the Trash Bag Dispenser" (part of "Pollution Solution"), Elmyra throws a tea party and dresses several of her pets as babies against their will. Since she is polluting Plucky's pond with tin cans that can easily be recycled, Plucky (as his superhero alter-ego, The Trash Bag Dispenser) tries unsuccessfully to tell her that she is polluting his pond. Elmyra pays no attention to him, instead roping him into her tea party and dressing him in a bonnet and a diaper against his will. |
| 383 | ** "Little Dog Lost" (part of "A Cat's Eye View") begins with Elmyra dressing Byron Basset in a purple dress and high-heel shoes. This is what causes Byron to run away from her. |
| 384 | * PintsizedPowerhouse: Despite being an incredibly dimwitted teenage girl, Elmya is shown to be strong enough to casually manhandle a T-Rex in her guest appearance on Animaniacs. She pulls it over her head and slams it into the ground repeatedly before ripping it's head off by complete accident! |
| 385 | * PunchClockVillain: In "Prom-ise Her Anything", she shows more interest in dating Montana Max than trying to chase after animals. She's also shown being able to interact socially with the animal toons in other episodes — primarily those centered around the school and classes — as well. |
| 386 | * SignatureHairDecs: A bow with a [[RedRightHand skull]] on it. Since her interests are typically girly and all her intentions are genuinely good, this little detail is LeaningOnTheFourthWall more than anything. |
| 387 | * StalkerWithACrush: She is shown to be this towards Montana Max in episodes where she dates him, such as "Prom-ise Her Anything" and "My Dinner with Elmyra" (Part of "Love Disconnection"). |
| 388 | ** In "Dream Date Game", Elmyra's dream date with Monty consists of her locking him in a cage for the rest of his life. |
| 389 | * TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The Girly Girl to Mary Melody's tomboy. Elmyra mostly wears a dress and is into dolls, tea parties, and cute things like animals. |
| 390 | * TookALevelInJerkass: In the Spring Break special, she doesn't seem to be oblivious of the pain she causes animals and seems to get a kick out of tormenting them. (This is also her characterization in "Hare Today, Gone Tomorrow," but since that was the first episode in production that could be chalked up to EarlyInstalmentWeirdness.) |
| 391 | * VagueAge: While some of the characters are explicitly stated to be thirteen years old and Acme Looniversity is basically treated like a high school by the writers, Elmyra's intelligence, personality and behavior are more fitting for a ''much'' younger, if still exaggerated, character. |
| 392 | * VillainSong: In the Spring Break special, which portrays her as being deliberately malevolent, she sings "I'll Be Chasing You", a parody of Music/ThePolice song "Every Breath You Take". |

| 396 | !Fifi La Fume |
| 397 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/F_TTA_HowISpentMyVacation_6816.jpg]] |
| 398 | [[caption-width-right:350:"Ooh, la, la! My cherie!"]] |
| 399 | |
| 400 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart: WesternAnimation/PepeLePew. |
| 401 | -->Voiced by: Creator/KathSoucie (English), Junko Asami (Japanese), Carmen Olarte (Latin American Spanish), Sybille Tureau (French), Creator/BarbaraTissier (French/replacement voice) |
| 402 | |
| 403 | A lustful female skunk filled with deep passion and an all-consuming desire for a soulmate, Fifi comes from an implicitly poor background -- living in a derelict car in a junkyard in Acme Acres -- and is determined to find herself a Mr. Right. No matter how badly her smell and/or her aggressive come-ons tend to hinder her effort. |
| 404 | ---- |
| 405 | * AbhorrentAdmirer: Though, much like her SpearCounterpart (Pepe), it's only her smell and aggressive come-ons that are abhorrent. In "Aroma Amore" from "Furrball Follies" a nameless wolf and Furrball were both clearly are attracted to her, but her scent is unbearable. |
| 406 | * AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal: The three lead cheerleaders, Babs, Shirley and Fifi, represent three different aspects: Babs Bunny is implied to be fully dressed but goes [[BarefootCartoonAnimal without shoes]]. Shirley wears a hairbow and [[HalfDressedCartoonAnimal pink sweater but no pants]]. Fifi, for the most part, wears just a hairbow; there will be times she may wear clothes, but Fifi is typically "nude". |
| 407 | * BeautyBrainsAndBrawn: The Beauty to Shirley's Brains and Babs' Brawn. She's a flirtatious pretty skunk with a French accent. |
| 408 | * BreakTheCutie: Falls under this a lot. Tends to take losing her love in her shorts a lot more harshly than her predecessor ever did, was forced to be Elmyra's pet for a while, and her movie idol turned out to be a massive {{Jerkass}}. Though the last of which resulted in one of the most memorable moments in the series, when she finally snaps at his attitude towards her. |
| 409 | * ButtMonkey: More like "Butt Skunkey". She is usually abused and ignored for no reason. |
| 410 | * CatchPhrase: "Do not fear, my dear, Fifi La Fume is here!" |
| 411 | * CelebCrush: In ''How I Spent My Vacation'' it is shown that she has a crush on the famous actor Johnny Pew, but ends up leaving him after she discovers how much of a {{Jerkass}} he is. |
| 412 | * DamselInDistress: In the ''[[VideoGame/TinyToonAdventuresBabsBigBreak Babs' Big Break]]'' video game, she is captured by the Forest Ghost in Level 3. In order to rescue her, you'll need to find the switch that opens her cage. Once you rescue her, she will return the favor by using her stench to knock down the trees blocking the path. |
| 413 | * DependingOnTheArtist: In most of her appearances, she has white eyelids and blue sclera, but in a few of them, her eyelids are purple and her sclera is white instead. One could assume her purple eyelids are basically eyeshadow she's wearing in those cases though. |
| 414 | * DoggedNiceGirl: She has problems controlling her musk and she can be rather aggressive in pursuing guys, but she genuinely is an affectionate and friendly girl. |
| 415 | * DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale: The probable main reason this character was made female: no one was going to complain if a pretty (if smelly) girl is chasing a guy to the point where some viewers might playfully think as long as a guy can get noseplugs, why look a gift horse in the mouth? |
| 416 | * EverythingSoundsSexierInFrench: She has a French accent and is very attractive. |
| 417 | * ExtremeDoormat: She becomes this when she becomes obsessed with getting Johnny Pew's autograph. He proceeds to abuse her hospitality by making her his slave in exchange for his signature. He regrets it. |
| 418 | * FailedASpotCheck: While Pepe's inability to recognize his love interest isn't as skunk can be due to NegativeContinuity of the original shorts, Fifi's two unintentional boyfriends are boys she's encountered before, even though she doesn't normally hang out with them. She's at least been around Furrball and yet doesn't recognize him and the boy skunk she saw as remotely similar, even though the stripe was on his back and did not change anything else about his appearance. While Calamity being black and white at the time like a normal skunk would be convincing, his long ears and lack of a long tail should have been something of a red flag to indicate he's not a skunk. |
| 419 | * FavoritismFlipFlop: She goes off on a massive rant about how proms and dates are sexist and outdated. She then does a 180 when Hamton reveals he was going to ask her out. |
| 420 | * FunnyForeigner: Like Pepe, she has a French accent and her unrequited affections can lead to comedic moments. |
| 421 | * TheGadfly: In "The Buster Bunny Bunch", one of the earlier episodes, she was shown to not be entirely above teasing other characters, at least with Babs and Shirley. This side of her personality briefly returns in "Kon Ducki", where she demonstrates making Plucky’s mask by angering him enough to heat the mould. |
| 422 | * TheGlomp: Gives a huge hug to some of the boys she hits on. |
| 423 | * HeadTurningBeauty: PlayedWith. She ''would'' knock 'em dead with her good looks... if it wasn't for her scent and her aggressive way of coming on to guys she likes. Case in point, when Furrball saw her, he immediately jumped in her arms. All was great until he smelled her and noticed her tail stripe. |
| 424 | * HotForTeacher: Has a crush on her teacher and mentor, Pepe Le Pew. Elmyra infamously exploited this in an attempt to capture her. |
| 425 | * HowDoYouSay: Fifi being French, has said this phrase from time to time. |
| 426 | * IAmNotWeasel: She does not like being mistaken for a cat. |
| 427 | * IJustWantToBeLoved: What it seems she really wants is someone to love her. When Furrball and Calamity managed to remove the skunk-like looks before she could catch up to them and tell her they haven't seen any "cute boy skunk", she quickly breaks down in tears. She thinks that she has been abandoned and that no one loves her. |
| 428 | * InconsistentSpelling: Some people (including some who claim to be the aforementioned fans) still think her name is "Le Fume". Like Hamton as noted above, this is probably because the credits sometimes misspelled it as "Le Fume". |
| 429 | * InterspeciesRomance: Like Pepe, she mistakes other animals for fellow skunks and runs after them. Her hit list has included Furrball, Calamity, Beeper, and Dizzy. She also went to the prom with Hamton, and his interest in her is a gag in several episodes. |
| 430 | * {{Leitmotif}}: "Alouette", not unlike Pepe. One of the few characters to have one. |
| 431 | * MsFanservice: A more downplayed example compared to Bimbette or Julie Bruin. Good looks: check, sexy accent: check, EnsembleDarkhorse: check. Even the subtitles in one of her shorts call her "Sexius Skunkius". |
| 432 | * NiceGirl: Next to Hamton, she is one of the most legitimately kind-hearted characters. |
| 433 | * NiceMeanAndInbetween: The Nice to Babs' Mean and Shirley's In-Between. She acts as the kind-hearted hopeless romantic. |
| 434 | * NoGuyWantsToBeChased: This is her main problem, though unlike her ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart, she doesn't mind being chased. Unless it's by ''Elmyra'' of course. |
| 435 | * NoSenseOfPersonalSpace: Toward her love interests. |
| 436 | * OOCIsSeriousBusiness: In "How I Spent My Vacation", [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUIRzZWjATA&t=3m45s Fifi actually cried by screaming loudly first]], after stammering, whimpering, groaning, and gasping, instead of just her usual 'Le boo hoo' or the likes when Johnny Pew declared (and lied) that he did not have a pen to give her an autograph. |
| 437 | * OutOfFocus: Although technically one of the three female main protagonists, alongside Babs and Shirley, she tends to appear the least, perhaps because like her "predecessor", she's a bit of a one-joke toon, as well as the fact that after his initial successful run, Pepe would reduce his screentime, limiting himself on either cameos or supporting roles, so it's another thing that Fifi takes from Pepe. |
| 438 | * PantslessMalesFullyDressedFemales: Inverted as she is almost naked and pantsless a bit like [=McLoon's=] pantsless to Hamton Pig's Fully Dressed. |
| 439 | * PrehensileTail: She can use her tail to grab "boyfriends", as a bat (As seen in "Buster at the Bat"), as a shield (As seen in the "Defenders of the Universe" licensed game), and to spray stink (Being a skunk and all). |
| 440 | * RageBreakingPoint: Normally, Fifi is rarely ever angry, even against Elmyra, all she had was just disgust. But after meeting Johnny Pew, her favorite actor, and having to endure him being dismissively mean towards her without even giving her his autograph because for her, he said he did not have any pens, and yet managed to whip out a pen when another attractive skunk passed by and signed his autograph for her in Fifi's photo of him, for the first time, Fifi looks visibly enraged. |
| 441 | -->''[[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech "That was my photograph! I cannot believe you! You are nothing but a selfish, worthless waste of skunk! You, Monsieur Pew, STINK!!"]] (kicks Johnny out of the movie and right onto Elmyra's hands)'' |
| 442 | * RidiculouslyCuteCritter: She's a quite cute skunk. |
| 443 | * SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud: "Sigh" or "Wheeze" isn't something you usually say exactly. But Fifi likes to say it loud like "Le sigh" or "Le wheeze" whenever she's being expressively melodramatic. |
| 444 | * SelfProclaimedLoveInterest: Her latest crush is her boyfriend, if he likes it or not. |
| 445 | * SmellySkunk: Unlike Pepe, she can actually control her scent. At least, to a degree; part of the problem is not only do guys fear that she ''will'' start stinking if they let her get close, but sometimes she really does walk around with constant musk flowing from her (the "How I Spent My Summer Vacation" special is a good example). Still, she can control it better than he does; normally she only tends to lose control when she's getting worked up over a cute guy. She is also able to weaponize her stink in self-defense like a real skunk, as Elmyra learned the hard way. |
| 446 | * StalkerWithACrush: Much like her predecessor, Pepe, only she's never had to fight off guys chasing her (in fact, she prefers it). |
| 447 | * TemptingFate: In How I Spent My Vacation, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUIRzZWjATA&t=127s if you see her hiding in the dish's cloche, while humming, looking at herself in a mirror, fixing her hair, applying her lipstick and her perfume, assuring that her plan to get that autograph from Johnny Pew would be a success]], you'll think this plan WOULD be a success, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/DarthWiki/WhatAnIdiot but unfortunately it isn’t]]. Full disclosure, she went into the wrong room and [[OhCrap she quickly learns to realize it.]] |
| 448 | * TownGirls: The Femme (flirty and romantic) to Babs' Butch (a sassy, energetic prankster) and Shirley's Neither (GranolaGirl). |
| 449 | * VerbalTic: Uses "Le" frequently (Le wheeze, Le boo hoo hoo, Le sigh, ect.) |
| 450 | * VisibleOdor: Often seen with a green or purple trail. |
| 451 | * WeaksauceWeakness: Being douse in [[TomatoSkunkStinkCure tomato sauce]] completely neutralizes her odor, to the point she can't even produce it if she wanted to. |
| 452 | * WeaponizedStench: |
| 453 | ** In "Out of Odor" (part of "[[Recap/TinyToonAdventuresS1E55ViewerMailDay Viewer Mail Day]]"), Elmyra [[TomatoSkunkStinkCure drenches Fifi La Fume in tomato juice]] so she can capture her. Fifi is eventually able to wash off the juice and tries to fight back by firing smell clouds out of her tail at Elmyra. Unfortunately, an allergic reaction to roses leaves Elmyra unable to smell anything, which allows her to capture Fifi anyway. |
| 454 | ** In the ''Babs' Big Break'' video game, she uses her stench to knock down the trees blocking the path after the player rescues her. |

| 460 | |
| 461 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart: Melissa Duck. |
| 462 | -->Voiced by: Gail Matthius (English), Creator/MikaKanai (Japanese), Maria T. Hernandez (Latin American Spanish), Joëlle Guigui (French) |
| 463 | |
| 464 | A female avian toon of indeterminate species -- her name suggests that she's a loon, but her appearance is near perfectly that of a duck -- Shirley may speak with a ValleyGirl accent, but don't let that fool you. Under her vapid-seeming speech patterns and neo-hippie beliefs lies a keen mind and a formidable grasp of mystical powers. She is more or less Plucky's girlfriend, although Fowlmouth keeps trying to woo her away from him. |
| 465 | ---- |
| 466 | * UsefulNotes/AmericanAccents: ValleyGirl. Justified, as her voice actress played a Valley girl before (though when Gail Matthius played Valley Girl Vicki on ''Series/SaturdayNightLive'', it didn't sound as high as it does here. Whether Matthius perfected her Valley Girl voice between her short time on ''SNL'' and when she was hired to do ''TTA'' or her voice was pitched up after recording her lines isn't known). |
| 467 | * BeautyBrainsAndBrawn: The Brains to Fifi's Beauty and Babs' Brawn. She's a very smart if eccentric loon with psychic powers. |
| 468 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: Do NOT make her angry. Seriously, don't; she turns into [[Literature/{{Carrie}} Carrie White]]. |
| 469 | * CatchPhrase: Like, she tends to start sentences with "Like," and end them with "or some junk," or some junk. She's also a fan of "Déjà vu!" |
| 470 | * CelebCrush: She has one on Yul Brynner. |
| 471 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Though actually a very smart one. |
| 472 | * DamselInDistress: In Level 4 of the ''[[VideoGame/TinyToonAdventuresBabsBigBreak Babs' Big Break]]'' video game, she is captured by the Wolverine, who plans to eat her. To rescue her, you must defeat the Wolverine in a boss battle. |
| 473 | * GranolaGirl: She is into E.S.P., telekinesis, astrology, crystals, tarot cards, tea leaves, palm reading, levitation and reincarnation. |
| 474 | * HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: Shirley wears only a pink shirt. She does not cover her bottom and her legs. |
| 475 | * HiddenDepths: She's a gifted ballerina. |
| 476 | * InconsistentSpelling: Some think her name is Shirley THE Loon. Including the programmers of the Tiny Toons videogame. |
| 477 | * InformedSpecies: Just take a look at her, then look at a picture of a [[https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ef/PacificLoon24.jpg real loon]]. [[SarcasmMode See anything similar?]] |
| 478 | * InterspeciesRomance: A loon in a love triangle with a chicken and a duck. |
| 479 | * LevitatingLotusPosition: She does this as part of her psychic powers. |
| 480 | * LikeIsLikeAComma: Like, to really bring the, like, ValleyGirl stereotype, she, like, majorly talks like, like, this, or some junk. |
| 481 | * LittleMissSnarker: She can deliver pretty snarky comments, mainly towards Plucky. |
| 482 | * NewAgeRetroHippie: Shirley has a number of beliefs associated with the New Age movement. |
| 483 | * NiceMeanAndInbetween: The In-Between to Fifi's Nice and Babs' Mean. She's usually pretty collected, but isn't above making [[DeadpanSnarker snide remarks]]. |
| 484 | * NonmammalianHair: She has long, blonde hair. |
| 485 | * PantslessMalesFullyDressedFemales: Inverted as she wears no pants to Hampton Pig's fully dressed. |
| 486 | * PinkMeansFeminine: She wears pink clothes. |
| 487 | * PsychicPowers: Has psychic/mystical powers. When she gets angry, it's like a scene out of ''Literature/{{Carrie}}'' (in fact, there was an episode where she went berserk at a prom like in the climax of that work, albeit toned down for the younger crowd[[note]]the pig's blood dumped on her was actually fruit punch and she only ended up flooding the gym instead of killing everyone[[/note]]. Observing this, Babs even namedrops the film for ParentalBonus purposes). |
| 488 | * ShoutOut: To actress Shirley [=MacLaine=]; by the time this series launched, she had become notorious for her professed beliefs in reincarnation, [=UFO=]s, and various New Age phenomena. (The two Shirleys actually meet in one short.) |
| 489 | * TownGirls: The Neither (GranolaGirl) to Fifi's Femme (flirty and romantic) and Babs' Butch (a sassy, energetic prankster). |

| 496 | |
| 497 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart: [[WesternAnimation/SylvesterTheCatAndTweetyBird Sylvester J. Pussycat, Sr.]] (although he also shares traits with Penelope Pussycat and any generic cat character meant to be prototypes of Sylvester). |
| 498 | -->Voiced by: Creator/FrankWelker when voiced at all, except for one episode when Creator/RobPaulsen voiced him instead (English), Creator/RyuzouIshino (Japanese), Rafael Monsalve (Latin American Spanish), Roland Timsit (French) |
| 499 | |
| 500 | An incredibly unlucky alley cat who struggles to fend for himself on the streets of Acme Acres, sometimes being so desperate as to tolerate living with Elmyra for a while in order to attain food and shelter. |
| 501 | ---- |
| 502 | * AnthropomorphicZigZag: Depending on the episode, Furrball can be either be as much of a FunnyAnimal as the other kids attending the Looniversity or he can be a NearlyNormalAnimal who doesn't speak, lives in alleyways and can be adopted as a pet. |
| 503 | * AntiHero: Has been every type at least once. |
| 504 | * AntiVillain: Even at his most antagonistic, his actions are out of an instinct to survive, rather than genuine hostility. |
| 505 | * AttractiveBentSpecies: He gets a stripe in the "Aroma Amore" segment of the "Furrball Follies". As a result, Fifi sees him as a cute boy skunk. |
| 506 | * BreakTheCutie: Things just never seem to go right for him. |
| 507 | * ButtMonkey: Probably the biggest on the show next to Plucky. The theme song calls him "unlucky" for a reason, and even makes it really clear by having him get [[PianoDrop flattened by a falling piano]]. That said, despite his bad luck, he's still a bit luckier than other cartoon cats like [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Sylvester]] or [[WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry Tom]]. |
| 508 | * CuteKitten: He's a cat and can be adorable in his own way. |
| 509 | * CuteMute: A mute CuteKitten. |
| 510 | * DependingOnTheWriter: Is he a homeless stray or Elmyra's favorite pet? Depends on what the story needs... |
| 511 | * EarNotch: His right ear has a big chunk taken out from it. |
| 512 | * EstablishingCharacterMoment: Flattened by a falling piano in the intro (while peacefully minding his own business) sums up [[TheChewToy this character]] up quite effectively. |
| 513 | * GenderFlip: Furrball acts more like Penelope Pussycat than Sylvester, |
| 514 | * MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: The Feminine Boy to Sweetie's Masculine Girl. They are both homeless animals, but Furrball is too timid and cowardly to stand up to bigger animals, while Sweetie is a force to be reckoned with towards anyone and has a loud voice. |
| 515 | * NiceMeanAndInBetween: He's the In-Between to Sneezer's Nice and Sweetie's Mean. While he is generally a nice cat, he mostly hunts Sweetie and Sneezer either as a survival instinct or to pass a class in ACME Looniversity, and he usually only hunts Sweetie after she attacks him first. |
| 516 | * PianoDrop: During the ExpositoryThemeTune, he's out in the meadow sniffing a flower, and suddenly, a piano falls from the sky, not only crushing him but also breaking part of the ground. |
| 517 | * PinkGirlBlueBoy: The Blue Boy to Sweetie's Pink Girl. |
| 518 | * PointlessBandAid: His tail, for some reason, is wrapped in a bandage almost to the tip. |
| 519 | * PyrrhicVictory: His adoption by Elmyra can be seen as this. While he gets the permanent home and steady food he's always been questing for, his owner is [[TheDreaded Elmyra]]. She loves Furrball deeply, but her [[AndCallHimGeorge tendencies]] knock him around just as bad as the street, albeit without malice. |
| 520 | %%* RidiculouslyCuteCritter |
| 521 | * RoadRunnerVsCoyote: He serves as the Coyote to both Sweetie and Sneezer's Road Runners. |
| 522 | * SilentSnarker: After he lost his rights to speak on the show, at any rate. |
| 523 | * SphereFactor: As its name implies, his "Ball-Riding" special technique in ''Tiny Toon Adventures: ACME All-Stars'' allows him to move around the field or court while balancing himself on the ball. |
| 524 | * SuddenlySpeaking: |
| 525 | ** In a few early episodes, Furrball had a few lines of dialogue, notably in "Buster and the Wolverine", where he grieves over the titular Wolverine having captured Sweetie, because he wanted to be the one who ate her. The voice Creator/FrankWelker used for him sounded like a higher-pitched version of [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo Fred Jones]]. The writers quickly decided that Furrball worked better as a normal cat who just meows. |
| 526 | ** In the "Lost in the Fun House" Golden Book, Furrball has a few lines of dialogue. This book had [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HuSOHN3aQE a version with an audiocassette where the show's cast reprised their roles]], and the voice Creator/FrankWelker used for Furrball was similar to the one he used for Gogo Dodo. |
| 527 | * TeamPet: Whenever he's not shown to be a homeless stray, he's often someone's pet. |
| 528 | * TeamRocketWins: While he never won against Sneezer, he actually won against Sweetie in "Strange Tales of Weird Science". |
| 529 | * ThrowTheDogABone: Well, a cat anyway. On very rare occassions, an episode will end on a happy note for him, proving that despite what the theme song calls him, he isn't always unlucky. |
| 530 | * TheVoiceless: Except for at least three occasions. Usually he'd just meow, but one time he had a voice that sounded like a higher-pitched version of [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo Fred Jones]]. |

| 537 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart: [[WesternAnimation/SylvesterTheCatAndTweetyBird Tweety Bird]] (specifically with the nastier attitude he had in his earliest appearances). |
| 538 | -->Voiced by: Creator/CandiMilo (English), Creator/YukoMizutani (Japanese), Joëlle Guigui (French) |
| 539 | |
| 540 | An ironically named pink female canary whose cutesy appearance hides a sarcastic attitude and an immense sadistic streak. She loves to feign innocence and harmlessness, both to lure in victims for her to abuse and to get away with tormenting other toons. She has a particular relish for harassing the luckless Furrball. |
| 541 | ---- |
| 542 | * AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal: Her only article of clothing is a blue hairbow. |
| 543 | * BitchInSheepsClothing: She may seem nice at first glance, but she is really cruel and mischievous. |
| 544 | * ComedicSociopathy: Her favorite type of humor. |
| 545 | * CuteAndPsycho: Despite her small stature and cute exterior, she's pretty creepy, hostile and violent. |
| 546 | * CuteIsEvil: Much like her inspiration, she is an adorable bird...but ''not'' a nice one. |
| 547 | * ADayInTheLimelight: The result of her forcing Buster and Babs to give her a ThreeShorts episode of her own. |
| 548 | * TheFakeCutie: She acts like a sweet, innocent bird, but she's really a sadistic jerk. |
| 549 | * FeatheredFiend: A bully and a bird. |
| 550 | * IronicName: She is called "Sweetie" but is one of the nastiest characters on the show, perhaps even more so than Montana Max. |
| 551 | * ImAHumanitarian: Eats a shrunken Tad (Hamton's {{Jerkass}} imaginary friend) in "A Pigment of His Imagination". |
| 552 | ** She also tried to eat a shrunken Dizzy in "Squish", though it [[AllJustADream was just a nightmare.]] |
| 553 | * {{Jerkass}}: A sadistic BitchInSheepsClothing who always torments Furrball. |
| 554 | * LittleMissSnarker: It's perhaps a warning of her real nature that she almost never speaks without snarking about something. |
| 555 | * MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: The Masculine Girl to Furrball's Feminine Boy. They are both homeless animals, but while Furrball is too timid, cowardly, and wimpy to stand up to bigger animals, Sweetie has no problem fighting bigger animals despite her size and has a loud voice. |
| 556 | * MeanCharacterNiceActor: Subverted, it's implied she and Furball are "friends" of sorts outside their cartooning careers and that she ''still'' treats him like crap even then! |
| 557 | * MythologyGag: Sweetie Pie is based primarily on Bob Clampett's Tweety (as opposed to Friz Freleng's Tweety), who was pink and malicious. |
| 558 | * NiceMeanAndInBetween: She's the Mean to Sneezer's Nice and Furrball's In-Between. She attacks Furrball even when the latter is minding his own business and often tries unsuccessfully to eat Bookworm. |
| 559 | * NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Her sweet trill occasionally punctuated by obnoxious bellowing is reminiscent of comedienne Judy Tenuta. |
| 560 | * NonIndicativeName: She is anything ''but'' sweet. In fact she's right up there with the actual antagonists of the series in terms of jerkish behaviour. |
| 561 | * PinkGirlBlueBoy: The Pink Girl to Furrball's Blue Boy. |
| 562 | * PinkMeansFeminine: She is a pink female bird. |
| 563 | * PsychoPink: A cruel BitchInSheepsClothing with pink feathers. |
| 564 | * RoadRunnerVsCoyote: She falls onto both sides of this trope, as along with Sneezer, she's the Road Runner to Furrball's Coyote, but the Coyote to Bookworm's Road Runner. |
| 565 | * SitcomArchNemesis: For Furrball. |
| 566 | * TheTrickster: She keeps on messing with Furrball. |

| 571 | [[quoteright:260:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Calamity_Coyote_6437.png]] |
| 572 | |
| 573 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart: [[WesternAnimation/WileECoyoteAndTheRoadRunner Wile E. Coyote]]. |
| 574 | -->Voiced by: Creator/FrankWelker (English), Mitsuaki Hoshino (Japanese) |
| 575 | |
| 576 | A hyper-intelligent and nerdy male coyote, rarely seen speaking. |
| 577 | ---- |
| 578 | * AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal: His only article of clothing is a pair of pink sneakers. |
| 579 | * AlliterativeName: Both parts of his name begin with C. |
| 580 | * BigOlEyebrows: He has huge eyebrows. |
| 581 | * ButtMonkey: ''Nothing'' ever seems to go his way. Even Furrball gets a break from time to time, but not Calamity. |
| 582 | * InformedSpecies: While all of the coyotes in the ''Looney Tunes'' franchise have a similar appearance and at least resemble the real animal, Calamity is one weird-looking coyote. He has gray fur, a red nose, a small tail and stylized ears. |
| 583 | * JerkassBall: |
| 584 | ** The episode "Hero Hamton" which sees him as a member of Montana Max's team and even joins in for a few KickTheDog moments. |
| 585 | ** In "It's Buster Bunny Time" he tried to catch Buster for Elmyra, and got his punishment in the end. |
| 586 | * NiceGuy: Calamity is generally characterized as nice. In fact, he does not seem to enjoy chasing Little Beeper, instead preferring to help others or invent things. |
| 587 | * RoadRunnerVsCoyote: He serves as the Coyote to Beeper's Road Runner. This should come as no surprise, as he's the JuniorCounterpart of the TropeNamer. |
| 588 | * TheSmartGuy: Like Wile E. Coyote, he is intelligent and devises gadgets. |
| 589 | * SiblingRivalry: Implied to be Little Beeper's adopted brother. |
| 590 | * SpeciesSurname: His name is Coyote. |
| 591 | * TalkingWithSigns: |
| 592 | ** It was always troublesome whenever he wanted to talk on the phone. |
| 593 | ** A strange case occurs in the ''[[VideoGame/TinyToonAdventuresBusterBustsLoose Buster Busts Loose]]'' video game, during the prologue to the "Buster's Sky-Jinks" level. When Calamity has to speak to Buster, his sprite merely holds up a blank sign, but what he needs to say is displayed on the normal dialogue box. In the same game, he holds up a sign saying, "Help me!" in Babs' bonus game instead of yelling it like the other characters, and pulls out another sign saying "Thank you!" when you rescue him instead of saying it like the other characters. |
| 594 | * TeamRocketWins: In "Love Stinks". |
| 595 | * TheOneWhoWearsShoes: They're ''all'' he wears. |
| 596 | * TheVoiceless: In fact, he's spoken even ''fewer'' lines than his ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart. |
| 597 | * ThrowTheDogABone: |
| 598 | ** At the end of "Love Stinks", he is for once triumphant against Little Beeper after he falls into a pool of TarAndFeathers making look a male skunk and then he gets Fifi La Fume to chase after Litte Beeper. |
| 599 | ** At the end of "Lifeguard Lunacy" (part of "Pledge Week"), after all the trouble he endures trying to keep the other toons safe, he saves Arnold from drowning and the three pool girls that wooed the pit bull throughout the short turn their attention to Calamity for being a hero. |

| 603 | !Little Beeper |
| 604 | [[quoteright:225:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Little_Beeper_1689.jpg]] |
| 605 | |
| 606 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart: [[WesternAnimation/WileECoyoteAndTheRoadRunner Road Runner]]. |
| 607 | -->Voiced by: Creator/FrankWelker. |
| 608 | |
| 609 | A male road runner most notable for his super-toon speed and his enjoyment of harassing and tormenting Calamity. |
| 610 | ---- |
| 611 | * AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal: His only article of clothing is a pair of blue sneakers. |
| 612 | * ATasteOfDefeat: Unlike the Road Runner, who always won in the [[WesternAnimation/WileECoyoteAndTheRoadRunner Road Runner]] shorts, Little Beeper did lose at the end of "Love Stinks", though to be fair, he was mocking Calamity for his own amusement after scaring him and karma caught up to him quickly. |
| 613 | * InformedSpecies: Bears absolutely no resemblance to an actual roadrunner just like his ''Looney Tunes'' counterpart. |
| 614 | * InstantHomeDelivery: In the third wraparound of "Career Oppor-toon-ities", Buster and Babs order a pizza from Bombino's, which comes a second later, since Beeper works as a delivery boy for that restaurant. |
| 615 | -->'''Buster:''' What took you so fast? |
| 616 | * {{Jerkass}}: He has run over Calamity with a truck for no reason many times (often straight after another painful experience). Even worse is in "A Piece of Mind" -- in a flashback, it's hinted that Beeper and Calamity are actually ''adoptive brothers''. [[SiblingRivalry Yikes]]... |
| 617 | * LaserGuidedKarma: Near the end of "Love Stinks", as he mocks Calamity after startling him, he accidentally moves backwards, causing himself to smack into a parking meter and end up falling in a pool of TarAndFeathers, leaving himself covered in them. This gives Calamity the perfect opportunity to call [[AbhorrentAdmirer Fifi La Fume]] over, thus resulting in Beeper getting mistaken for a male skunk by her. |
| 618 | * {{Narcissist}}: He is shown to be vain and enjoys seeing his reflection in a mirror like most Road Runners do. In "Falling to Pizzas" (part of "Career Oppor-toon-ities"), Calamity tries to use this tactic to steal pizza from him, but to no avail. |
| 619 | * TheOneWhoWearsShoes: Like Calamity, the only stitch of clothing he has. |
| 620 | * RoadRunnerVsCoyote: He serves as the Road Runner to Calamity's Coyote. This should come as no surprise, as he's the JuniorCounterpart of the TropeNamer. |
| 621 | * SiblingRivalry: Implied to be Calamity's adopted brother. |
| 622 | * TheSpeedster: Like his mentor, Beeper uses his great speed to outrun and outsmart his coyote nemesis, Calamity Coyote. One short, "Falling to Pizzas" features him working as a delivery bird for Bombino's Pizza, whose policy is "[[ThirtyMinutesOrItsFree Delivery in 2 Minutes or Your Money Back]]". In another short, "The Just-Us League of Supertoons", his superhero alter-ego is Little Dasher (the equivalent of ComicBook/TheFlash). |
| 623 | * SuperSpeed: Like Road Runner, he moves very fast. |
| 624 | * TheVoiceless: Also like Road Runner, he only says "Beep Beep". |

| 628 | !Gogo Dodo |
| 629 | [[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gogo_dodo.png]] |
| 630 | |
| 631 | -->''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' counterpart: The Dodo from "WesternAnimation/PorkyInWackyland", who is apparently his father. |
| 632 | -->Voiced by: Creator/FrankWelker (English), Creator/MitsuruOgata (Japanese), Mario Santini (French), Frank Carreño (Latin American Spanish) |
| 633 | |
| 634 | A hyperactive and crazy male "Dodo Bird" from the ultra-loony region of Wackyland, beyond Acme Acres. Mostly a cameo character who tends to show up for gratuitous random madcap humor. |
| 635 | ---- |
| 636 | * AdvertisedExtra: One of the few characters mentioned in the theme song and gets a fair bit of attention in the SeriesBible. After the first season, however, he's usually OutOfFocus. |
| 637 | * BlackBeadEyes: As a tribute to the original Dodo bird, he's the only recurring character to have them. |
| 638 | * CatchPhrase: "Cuckoo! Cuckoo!" Doubled with his job as the cuckoo bird in every clock on the show -- no matter if said clock is an actual cuckoo clock or not. Also, his constant "Vo-do-de-oh, vo-do-de-oh"-ing. |
| 639 | -->"Cuckoo! Cuckoo! If you're late for class, yooooou're Cuckoo! Cuckoo!" |
| 640 | -->"Cuckoo! Cuckoo! It's lunchtime! And if you eat the meatloaf, yooooou're Cuckoo! Cuckoo!" |
| 641 | -->"Cuckoo! Cuckoo! If you don't do your homework, yooooou're Cuckoo! Cuckoo!" |
| 642 | -->"Cuckoo! Cuckoo! [[AsideComment My agent told me if I took this role, I was cuckoo.]]" |
| 643 | * CuckooClockGag: He frequently emerges from the clocks at Acme Looniversity. |
| 644 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Quoth the SeriesBible: "Gogo operates by his own set of rules, which means no rules." |
| 645 | * DemotedToExtra: It seems like he was originally intended to be a principal character; he gets a fair bit of attention in the SeriesBible, he's one of the characters to be mentioned in the theme song, and he plays fairly large roles in the OriginsEpisode and several episodes early in Season One ("Her Wacky Highness", "Sawdust and Toonsil", etc.). In later episodes he's a very minor character. |
| 646 | * DoofyDodo: While far from actually dumb, Gogo is pretty goofy and has a very eccentric mindset. |
| 647 | * FadingAway: He and his fellow Wackylanders will suffer this trope if they're ever far from home for too long. |
| 648 | * InformedSpecies: Just like his father, he looks ''nothing'' like a real dodo. |
| 649 | * LastOfHisKind: Referred to as the last of the Dodos in a couple of episodes, though usually only in passing. |
| 650 | * LiteralMinded: Any visual joke Gogo makes becomes so literal, it's insanely hilarious. |
| 651 | * TheMadHatter: And how! The theme song says it best: |
| 652 | -->''"And Gogo is INSANE!"'' |
| 653 | * MouthyBird: His beak resembles a pointy nose with a mouth underneath. |
| 654 | * PungeonMaster: Usually ''visual'' puns -- most of his wacky stunts that aren't completely random or nonsensical are pun-based. |
| 655 | * RealityWarper: More so than any other Tiny Toon. |
| 656 | * SpinOffspring: Unlike the other characters, he's the only one who's actually related to a Looney Tunes character -- his dad was the Dodo from "WesternAnimation/PorkyInWackyland". |
