3''[[http://web.archive.org/web/20120410002032/http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5261542/1/Super_Robot_Wars_High Super Robot Wars High]]'' is a fanfic written by [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Tropers/Rpgingmaster Rpgingmaster]]

5[[WordOfGod According to the author]], this series is basically a massive attempt to roll as many ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' games and related mecha series as possible into one series, and is also something of a parody of Super Robot Wars style plots done HighSchoolAU style yet in a Super Robot Wars style universe, is basically a massive distillation of every SRW property that can be possibly shoved into one continuity.

80'''Warning: Unmarked spoilers ahead!'''
81
82----
83!!Provides Examples Of:
84
85* AbsurdlyPowerfulStudentCouncil: SRW High gets one in Episode 59 that is a fusion of the one from [[Franchise/CodeGeass Ashford Academy]] and [[Literature/FullMetalPanic Jindai High]].
86%%* AcademyOfAdventure:
87%%* AkashicRecords
88%%* AFatherToHisMen: [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Bright Noah]] used to be a borderline {{jerkass}}. However, soon after [[spoiler: Ryu Jose]] did a HeroicSacrifice, he [[TookALevelInKindness decided to become a better person and became this trope]].
89%%* AffectionateParody - [[WordOfGod Of Super Robot Wars style plots]]
90* AlternateUniverse: Crossed with AlternateHistory. [[spoiler: At first, the universe of the series was that of ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha'' crossed with ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ'' with a HighSchoolAU premise, but then we find out that The Edel Bernal from the original ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ'' universe almost died after fighting ZEUTH, barely managed to escape to this fanfic universe in a dying state, and what was left of him was reconstituted by Fate to be his personal troubleshooter in cleaning up the events of the SRW High-verse Taichi and making sure nothing would interfere with his plans to build up the ultimate team of badasses to take any threat Fate, Irui Gan Eden or the Ide couldn't take on until they were ready. Before this, the history of Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann was changed by Kamina defying Fate successfully, which had the ripple effect of Fate having The Edel Bernal deliberately changing history from how it unfolded in the universes parallel to the SRW High-verse.]]
91* AIIsACrapshoot - Completely and/or semi sentient AI's are regarded with severe distrust in this universe. Albeit somewhat justified, it is revealed the fear of AI's has been artificially inflated, and in one ironic instance, an AI turns on its creator [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsMX because said creator wanted it to do evil]], while the AI in question wanted to be good.
92%%* AndIMustScream: [[spoiler: Keiser Ephes and Gauron were subjected to fates that justify this trope, though the latter isn't even able to scream, but he wants to.]]
93* AntiVillain - [[spoiler: Kackrinon Cacooler]] is probably the nicest Titan on the team, aside from being saddled with a case of LawfulNeutral that makes him side with a LawfulEvil organization, but mostly because [[spoiler: Jerid Mesa, whom he considers a little brother, is on the same team.]] Otherwise, he's actually a somewhat decent human being when he's not a PunchClockVillain.
94* ApocalypseHow - Earth went through Class 0-2 more than once during and before the Black History, with the threat of a Class 5 and 6 during the worst parts, and the universe as a whole during the [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ Taichi]] nearly suffered an X-4, and up until the [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Anti-Spirals]] were confirmed dead, the constant threat of being part of an X-5 was a constant problem.
95%%* AssholeVictim - A lot of villains become one sooner or later.
96%%* AuthorAppeal - the concept of {{Irony}}, historical, game, anime, and literature references.
97%%* AxCrazy - [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Yazan Gable]]. That is all.
98%%* BackToBackBadasses - [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam0083StardustMemory Kou Uraki and Anavel Gato]] got a chance at this in Episode 54.
99* BadassArmy - The EFA, [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration UCC]], [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED ZAFT]], [[Literature/FullMetalPanic MITHRIL]], [[TheAlliance the Alpha Numbers]], [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsCompact3 the Shura]], and Londo Bell. The standing forces of the [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED country of ORB]] are regarded as one.
100* BadassCrew - [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann The Dai-Gurren Brigade]] is the in universe Trope Codifer. [[Anime/GunXSword Van]] traveled with one that consisted of half the cast from ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsK''. [[Manga/MobileSuitGundamSEEDAstray The Junk Guild and Serpent Tail]] have fairly respectable badass cred, and [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamThe08thMSTeam Shiro Amada]] led one alongside the good guys of [[Literature/FullMetalPanic MITHRIL]]. [[Literature/FullMetalPanic Sousuke Sagara]] and [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWars4 Ring Mao]] are the co-leaders of one in Episode 14.
101* BadassTeacher - Many canon ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' badasses are teachers, such as [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Sanger Zonvolt]], [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Ramba Ral]], [[Anime/MobileFighterGGundam Master Asia]] and [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration Elzam von Branstein]].
102%%* BashBrothers - In this universe, Sanger Zonvolt and Wodan Ymir are a blood related example.
103* BattleCouple - Arado and Seolla. In fact, it's fighting as a couple that makes them more deadly than when fighting seperately.
104* BerserkButton - Several characters have these:
105** DO NOT MESS WITH [[Anime/{{Braiger}} Steven Bowie's]] [[CoolCar car]]. Also, it's wise not use [[Anime/{{Braiger}} Angel Omachi's real name]] if you don't want to piss her off.
106** Most of the Titans, ironically enough, are only truly effective when these are pressed, as revealed in Episode 61, and even more ironically [[spoiler: Jerid's is fueled by ThePowerOfLove and Kackrinon's is fueled by a BigBrotherInstinct.]]
107** At one point, [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Asuka]] had the [[SarcasmMode brilliant idea]] to brutally insult Rei in front of her brother, Shinji. Shinji's response is to grab her, turn her around, give her a look that [[IncrediblyLamePun absolutely terrifies]] her, and tells her to shut up. This scares not only Asuka, but the entire class as well. [[WeirdnessCensor Everyone else promptly suppresses the memory of the event.]]
108* BigBrotherInstinct - Ironically, this was one of [[spoiler: Ginias Saharin's]] better qualities and his major PetTheDog personality trait, until his SanitySlippage began.
109%%* BigDamnHeroes - Done by Londo Bell a LOT.
110* BigGood - [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Kamille Bidan]] is the leader of [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamCharsCounterattack Londo Bell]]. In a larger sense, Bright Noah serves this purpose for the whole school. Above him is Laker Randolph for the EFA, Maier V. Branstein for the UCC, the Alpha Numbers for the galaxy, and, ironically enough, [[spoiler: The Akashic RecordsFate (with The Edel Bernal as his front man) FOR THE UNIVERSE!]]
111%%* BookDumb - Seolla once laments this about Arado.
112* BrightSlap - Given by [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Bright himself]] to [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Vindel Mauser]] and [[Anime/VoltesV General Oka]] in Episode 2. Jamil Neate gives Garrod the [[MemeticMutation Falcon PAWWWNNNCHHH!!!!]] version of this in Episode 43.
113** Ironically, Bright himself got two of these done to him before he became known for them.
114* BrotherSisterIncest: Three cases so far involving [[Anime/{{Godannar}} Knight Valentine]], [[Toys/MachineRobo Rom Stoll]], and [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsW Kazuma Ardygun]]. In all of them, each of them have feelings for their sisters beyond that of family, and all three are aware of this and want to prevent themselves from acting on those feelings, and have even founded a support group to avert this trope, with varying degrees of success.
115** [[spoiler: As of Episode 60, it's revealed the girls formed their own support group, and they decided to defuse most of the focal points of this trope for the same reasons as their brothers.]]
116* BunnyEarsLawyer - [[Anime/{{Gravion}} Klein Sandman]] and [[Anime/GenesisOfAquarion Gen Fudou]] are regarded as awesome yet [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} very, very weird.]]
117* ButtMonkey - The Titans in general, but specific examples include Yazan Gable. He got his ass kicked every other day, it seems.
118%%* CanonWelding - [[WordOfGod This shall be attempted as best as possible.]]
119* CharClone - Played straight in that all of them, including the original, show up, but parodied in that Char is annoyed that his ''[[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Quattro Bajina]]'' look is copied by Elzam.
120%%* CharlesAtlasSuperpower - Baron Ashura, [[spoiler: after he gets his ass kicked by Master Asia]], acquires this.
121* ChastityCouple - Kira Yamato and Lacus Clyne are almost entirely platonic in their relationship, by mutual choice.
122%%* ClipShow - A few episodes read like this.
123* CrapsackWorld - Earth during the Black History. The homeworlds of the Balmar and the Zuvorg turned into this after they fought a very long, bitter war, though they improved after becoming part of [[TheAlliance The Alpha Numbers]]. In fact, Earth ''before'' the Black History was kinda miserable for humanity, [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann courtesy of the Beastmen.]]
124* CrazyPrepared - [[spoiler: Project Aegis is basically a massive collection of fail safes just in case The Edel Bernal misses something.]] Sousuke and Heero Yuy are noted for this in the military hardware department.
125* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass - Both [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam0080WarInThePocket Bernie Wiseman]] and [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamZZ Mashmyre Celloro]] can be surprisingly badass when need be.
126* ColonyDrop - Terrorists [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam0083StardustMemory that included the Delaz Fleet]] tried to [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEEDDestiny break the world]], but it was narrowly averted.
127%%* CoolHorse - [[spoiler: Trombe]] makes an appearance.
128%%* CoolShades - Subverted for [[spoiler: Char Aznable and Jamil Neate]].
129%%* CoolTeacher - Many of them are present, almost all of them being from the heroic cast members of the SRW universe.
130* ConversationalTroping - Done by The Edel Bernal on occasion, not to mention a few other characters, but he does it the most.
131* CurbStompBattle- What Sanger and Wodan gave everything [[spoiler: Egret Fehu]] threw at them.
132* DamagedSoul - [[spoiler: The Edel Bernal]] looks like a GodModeSue [[spoiler: but he's a DamagedSoul who's only being kept alive by The Akashic Records in exchange for killing every bastard he can find, and if he doesn't do it, The Akashic Records will yank away the power sustaining the remnants of his soul, leaving him to disappear from existence. He also has no guarantee he can recover from physical death anymore, so death is a very real fear for him.]]
133* DareToBeBadass - The [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Dai Gurren Brigade]] doing this trope not only achieved all the awesome they did in canon, [[spoiler: it also convinced Fate to do everything in its power to encourage the awesome of the ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' cast!]]
134%%* DeathIsCheap - Averted for [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ The Edel Bernal]].
135* {{Deconstruction}} - To make a HighSchoolAU possible, a lot of back story is invested into justifying it in universe, as opposed to simply having an ExcusePlot, and since most HighSchoolAU exist due to ExcusePlot, this story is a parody in the sense it goes out of it's way to justify the High School of the HighSchoolAU trope in universe.
136* {{Determinator}} - [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Arado Balanga]]. [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Yazan Gable]] is a villainous example. The [[spoiler: Pervert Force]] from Episode 14 are comedic examples.
137* DeusExMachina - The Edel Bernal is a walking embodiment of this [[spoiler: due to being the avatar of the Akashic Records]], and this is even the title of the two part [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsGaiden Masoukishin Arc.]]
138* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu - Rather, in Episode 29 did Sanger and Wodan destroy a [[spoiler: Bergelmir]] ON FOOT?!
139** [[MagnificentBastard Laker Randolph]] manages to break [[spoiler: The Edel Bernal's jaw]] with a MegatonPunch.
140%%** And [[Anime/{{Godannar}} Ken]] topped that.
141%%** And [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Kamina]] topped THAT by [[spoiler: literally applying ScrewDestiny to the manifestation of Destiny itself!]]
142* DivideAndConquer - [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing The Romafeller Foundation's]] plan to screw over the Sanc Kingdom amounted to this. [[spoiler: To their credit, it partially succeeded.]]
143* DroppedABridgeOnHim - [[spoiler: Both Yuna AND his uncle had a GOUF dropped on them.]]
144* ElaborateUniversityHigh - It's described as being the size of a medium sized city, has a ton of facilities that most gigantic real world high school-college fusions wouldn't have [[spoiler: justified, as it also doubles a massive cross cultural embassy and a secret training ground for the majority of the members of Project Aegis]], and provides classes on LOTS of topics, though they specialize in engineering, cultural, and applied sciences [[spoiler: which actually is to the benefit of Project Aegis]].
145%%* ElevatorSchool
146* EnemyMine - Asakim Dowin has utter contempt for the Titans. Such much so, he sides with Londo Bell in Episode 30. The Titans themselves side with the good guys over the douchery of Lee Linjun and [[DepravedHomosexual Schlan]] [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ Opel]].
147* MrFanservice: [[Anime/CodeGeass Jerimiah Gottwald]] and [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Treize Khusrenanda]] have a lot of female fan girls.
148* EvenEvilHasStandards - Asakim Dowin hates the Titans. The Titans draw the line at abusing children and despise Lee Linjun. [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ The Edel Bernal]] is horrified at what the [[Anime/TekkamanBlade Radam]] do to get the Tekkaman to serve their cause.
149* ExtranormalInstitute - The entire point of SRW High, given its supposed to be a crosscultural embassy of sorts.
150* FateWorseThanDeath - What The Edel Bernal gave [[spoiler: Gauron]].
151* FauxAffablyEvil - The Edel Bernal, who's evil and enjoys every minute of making people uncomfortable with it.
152* FlameWar - ''[[WordOfGod Actually requested it be done to him by the author himself if any episode was as bad as the original version of Episode 27]]''
153* FishOutOfWater - Explicitly used to describe [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsCompact3 Folka Albark]] and [[Anime/UFORoboGrendizer Duke Fleed]], though the latter gets over this quicker.
154* FixFic - [[WordOfGod This series, although a High School AU, attempts to address some of the writing flaws found in some SRW games and mecha series]]
155* [[invoked]] FixerSue - The Edel Bernal was turned into in universe. [[spoiler: Specifically, after his almost dead soul escaped the SRW Z universe, he was revived and tethered to Fate to be his personal troubleshooter in regards to cleaning up the Taichi and gave him an enforced HeelFaceTurn.]]
156* ForWantOfANail - [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Axis]] is destroyed by [[spoiler: The Edel Bernal]] which sets the colonies economy back so far that the Principality of Zeon never forms, and it is until the [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Coordinators]] decide to emigrate to the colonies do things get better.
157* FourStarBadass - [[spoiler:Kamille Bidan]] went from angsty naive kid to leader of his own army [[spoiler: Londo Bell]], and did it all by refusing to bow down to oppression, and instead [[TookALevelInBadass decided to start kicking ass and taking names]], and is now leads a huge portion of the resident SRW High badasses, and despite the fact he's just a BadassNormal, he's proven himself such an effective BigGood everyone who joins the team considers him their leader by default. The full story can be found in Episode 61.
158%%* FriendsWithBenefits - [[spoiler: Selena Recital and Sleigh Presty have this arrangement.]]
159* FunWithAcronyms - APS. (Anti Perversion Squad from Episode 14)
160** [[WordOfGod The Edel Bernal is often abbreviated TEB for convenience.]]
161%%* GambitPileup
162%%* GambitRoulette
163* GogglesDoNothing - Subverted for Basque Ohm. [[spoiler: They hide disfiguring injury scars around his eye sockets.]]
164%%* GondorCallsForAid - Used in Episode 30.
165%%* GovernmentConspiracy - [[spoiler: Project Aegis]] is a heroic version.
166* HandicappedBadass - [[spoiler: Anavel Gato]] had a broken arm in Episode 54.
167%%* HappilyMarried - [[Anime/MobileSuitVictoryGundam Oliver Inoue to Marbet Fingerhut.]], and [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Andrew Waltfield and Aisha.]]
168%% * HatedByAll: [[spoiler: [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamZZ Glemmy Toto]] ]] got this immediately after he tried to [[spoiler: rape Haman.]]
169* HeelFaceTurn - LOTS OF THEM!
170** [[spoiler: [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Ezaria Joule]] was convinced by [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ the Edel Bernal]] to double deal on her fellow conspirators on [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing Operation Meteor]] and join [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Project Aegis]]. ]]
171** [[spoiler: The Edel Bernal also convinced [[Anime/GenesisOfAquarion The Shadow Angels]] to ally with humanity instead of trying to exterminate them in exchange for finding them alternative sources of energy for the Tree of Life.]]
172* HeroicSacrifice - Also lots of these.
173** The [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha original Magus and the Ancestors]] sacrificed their lives to take down [[spoiler: [[Anime/GreatMazinger Ankoku Daishogun]], [[Manga/GetterRobo Emperor Gore]], [[Anime/{{Gaiking}} King Darius]] and [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsDestiny the Ruina]].]]
174** [[spoiler: [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSeedDestiny Heine Westenfluss]] did a suicide run to destroy [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam the Grpys Colony Laser]].]]
175%%* HighSchoolAU
176%%* {{Homage}} - [[WordOfGod Episode 49 is a semi-homage]] to ''Anime/HellGirl''.
177%%* HotBlooded - This is a series about people from mecha shows. Nuff said.
178* HotSpringsEpisode - Episode 14, [[WordOfGod which is an SRW flavored expansion of the one from Full Metal Panic Fumoffu]].
179* IHaveManyNames - The Edel Bernal has two aliases: Black Charisma (most commonly used) and Jiel (the human Edel's masochistic servant).
180%%* INeedAFreakingDrink - Done by [[spoiler: Kyosuke Nanbu and Tyutti Noorbuck]] in Episode 49.
181* InfoDump - Somewhat justified, as the story wouldn't make as much sense without the details.
182* InSpiteOfANail - Though many events Of Evangelion are blatantly averted, such as Second Impact, many of them wind up happening with the same end results regardless of the altered circumstances [[spoiler: such as Asuka's mother going crazy after EVA unit 02 test.]]
183* IntrepidReporter - What [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Kai Shiden]] became after leaving the EFA, and compared to the military, he rather enjoys this job.
184* ImprobableAge - Discussed and justified. Due to a massive series of bloodshed and conflict 50 years prior to the founding TheFederation and the arrival of the Zentradi, the age limit on lots of things like the military, drinking, and sex was drastically lowered to compensate for the lowered population.
185%%* {{Irony}} - [[WordOfGod This series is BUILT on this trope!]]
186* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy - [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration Latooni Subota]], [[Anime/{{Godannar}} Mira Ackerman]], and [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Flay Allister]] eventually decided to be willing to accept this trope. The first two almost think it word for word even.
187** [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Lyla Meia Jura did this for Jerid Mesa when she realized he and Mauer Pharoah liked each other]] and [[UnequalPairing since their relationship was getting one sided]], [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy Lyla set Jerid up with Mauer so both could be happy.]]
188%%* JapaneseSchoolClub - Many of the clubs at the school are based after this model.
189* JerkAss - Most of the [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Titans]] to varying extents, with Basque Ohm standing out.
190** JerkAssWoobie - By the same token, Basque has a rather horrifying back story [[spoiler: he was beaten to near death by Spacenoids]] that explains his understandable hatred, though it doesn't excuse it.
191* JustFriends - [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWars64 Despite Reese Greasewell wanting more, Selain Meneth wants the two of them to remain like this]], despite the fact [[DoggedNiceGuy he gave up everything for her.]] However [[BrokenBird she has]] [[TheWoobie her reasons.]]
192* KickTheDog - Schlan Opel decided to verbally abuse the [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld eight year old looking Irui]]. [[EvenEvilHasStandards Even the Titans found that disgusting.]]
193** [[spoiler: However, the Titans themselves get to be complete assholes even by their usual standards when Ramsus and Dungel beat up Ellis Valentine and Leina Stoll for the express purpose of pissing off Rom Stoll and Knight Valentine. However, for their trouble, they do wind up getting beaten to near death as a result.]]
194* KnightTemplar - [[spoiler: Laker Randolph]], as revealed in Episode 55, though he does temper this with frequent self reminders he's using villain tactics to serve a good cause and has the moral fiber to realize the fact he's chosen to be as evil [[HeWhoFightsMonsters as the monsters and warmongers he opposes]] in his methods in order to secure universal peace.
195%%* LampshadeHanging - Many Super Robot Wars cliches are commented on.
196%%* LaResistance - [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Haman Khan and Kamille Bidan]] each led one against the Titans during Jamitov's days as headmaster.
197* LockedInAFreezer - Literally happens to [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSeedDestiny Selene McGriff and Sven Cal Vaya]], during which the main events of the ''Stargazer'' OVA play out much like the source.
198* LockingMacGyverInTheStoreCupboard - A really stupid criminal tried to hold GadgeteerGenius [[spoiler: Lowe Guele]] hostage in an electronics warehouse.
199* LoveRedeems - Several characters like [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Char Aznable]] and [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Haman Khan]] have had HeelRealization moments and subsequent CharacterDevelopment as a result of this trope, and several others like [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSeedDestiny Sven Cal Vaya]] and [[Anime/{{Iczer}} Iczer-2]] have done {{Heel Face Turn}}'s as a result of this trope.
200%%* MemeticBadass - Sanger becomes one in universe.
201%%* MoralityPet - [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsZ Tsine Espio serves as one for Asakim Dowin]].
202* MotherlyScientist - [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Lemon Browning]] is the "they are like family" version to the W-Numbers. [[spoiler: So much so at least two of her creations are not only willing to die for her, but also have a crush on her.]]
203* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: A reaction had by several characters, most notably [[Anime/MobileSuitVictoryGundam Chronocle Asher]] after he realizes [[spoiler: what he helped Katejina Loos turn into.]]
204* NecessarilyEvil [[spoiler: Laker Randolph]], because he works with [[spoiler: The Edel Bernal]], and even though he's a good guy, he's not averse to bloodshed (of {{Asshole Victim}}s) to secure peace for the Earth Federation and the Alpha Numbers. However, as a counterbalance, he shows frequent disgust and horror at his partner's ForTheEvulz obsessions.
205%%* CoolVersusAwesome - Lampshaded and PlayedForLaughs in the second episode.

212* OutGambitted - the female Edel Bernal was running SRW High [[TheManBehindTheMan behind the scenes]] with an iron fist for quite awhile, but she overextended herself by actually hiring an honest man to be her stooge and it blew up in her face. That man? [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Bright Noah.]]

216* PsychoticSmirk - [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWars64 Reese Greasewell]] has one expression like this so unsettling he got the moniker [[RedBaron "Undead Man"]] as a result, which he tries to avoid around his LoveInterest out of deference to her.

218* RapeIsASpecialKindOfEvil - AND HOW! No less than four {{Attempted Rape}}s happen, and all four are averted and the perpetrator either given a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown, or, in one case, one guy gets killed in jail by his fellow inmates in a VERY DisproportionateRetribution fashion.

226* SchoolForScheming: Subverted and played with, because [[spoiler: the evil scheming get replaced by a benevolent scheme that largely supplants the more negative variant, yet in its own way could be seen as no better, depending on your point of view, though it should be noted the more benevolent scheme is almost certainly the much lesser of the two evils.]]
227* SerialEscalation- How many series can be shoved into one universe? Who will [[AntiHero The Edel Bernal]] kill off next in an [[CruelandUnusualDeath overly sadistic manner?]] How much more crazy is [[Franchise/CodeGeass Milly Ashford]] going to drive [[Anime/MobileSuitGundam Bright Noah?]]
