13	!!Follow the intergalatic tropes here:
14	[[foldercontrol]]
15
16	[[folder:A - C]]
17	* AncientEvil: In [[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/669366717726818304/episode-12-page-10 Episode 12]], there is a shrine revealed on Yumi's Home Planet for Ceangel. It's said that he defeated the Bringer of Darkness centuries before the events of the story.
18	* ActionGirl: Ruana is a perfect fit for this trope.
19	* AmazingTechnicolorWildlife: Let's see: a gold cat, a pink raccoon and a blue lion.
20	* {{Animesque}}: Read the comic and it won't take long to see.
21	* ArtificialLimbs: Yumi has a prosthetic right hand.
22	* AuthorAppeal: If you're already familiar with [=GirlyWolfPup=]'s content, it won't be surprising that anthropomorphic animals, curvy women and crop tops are proudly present in the main cast.
23	* BadGuyBar: Ebony and Ivory is a nightclub variant-- "a regular hotspot for crime lords to fuck around in"
24	* BadassInANiceSuit: Cyrus does this, and his tattooed arm, fanged evil smile, and supernatural eyes have led fans to believe he is more sinister then he appears.
25	* BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: This could apply to every character, but Ruana makes it obivious with the fact she wears a full space suit of power armor minus the helmet.
26	* BerserkButton: [[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/650934800949149696/episode-5-page-14 stated out right by Ace himself in Episode 5]]
27	* TheBigDamnKiss: [[spoiler: Ace and Yumi have this in Episode 6.]]
28	* BloodFromTheMouth: Literally in [[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/631908611518545921/episode-1-page-1 the first page of the first episode]], Ruana can be seen doing this.
29	* BreakingTheFourthWall:
30	** in the Wanted short Ace says "Destruction of property, theft, probably something I can't say without getting this shit demonetized, should I go on" referencing [=YouTube=] directly. In Gun Kitty Shorts, Soseki looks at the camera while asking the audience a question.
31	** "That's cause the steam censors our female presenting nipples"
32	* BeachEpisode: Episode 7
33	* BigBeautifulWoman: Downplayed with Yumi. Originally starting out rather skinny in the comic, notably starting episode 17 portrays her as looking a lot chubbier, yet no less attractive than previously.
34	* CensorSteam: Lampshaded in chapter seven.
35	* CheeryPink: Yumi's color scheme.
36	* ComicTrio: Ruana's the impulsive leader, Yumi's the cheerful follower, and Ace is the powerless voice of reason.
37	* CoolShip: The main trio travel the galaxy in one.

41	* DisproportionateRetribution: In [[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/650934800949149696/episode-5-page-14 Episode 5]], Ace disarms Captain Dread with his beam katana for making Ruana cry.
42	* EverythingTryingToKillYou: Seems that no matter where the trio go, something is out to get them.
43	* FamilyOfChoice: the comic shows this through the way the trio has developed a familiar bond with each other, possibly also an example of CriminalFoundFamily given the fact that the trio form a group of space pirates who regularly commit many crimes.
44	* FamilyExtermination: Captain Dread, in [[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/650934731419107328/episode-5-page-13 Episode 5]], reveals that he killed Ruana's family.
45	* FashionableAsymmetry: Shazza's pants have a long pant leg on one side while the other side is short with a long stocking visible.
46	* GoodColorsEvilColors: The protagonists are brightly colored (blue, yellow, and pink) while antagonists are darker colors.
47	* GratuitousJapanese: The comic's logo as well as the "to be continued" at the end of each episode.
48	* HartmanHips: Ruana, Yumi Bloom, Lucy Gravedigger, Shazza Stardust, and pretty much most female characters could fit into this trope.
49	* TheHeart: Yumi fits this role with ease. She's the social glue of the group, a ray of sunshine that is able to keep Ace and Ruana on good terms. Her role is minimal in the group, being more so there to encourage the group rather than exploring her own story.
50	* ImmuneToBullets: Ambrus takes a shot from Ruana's gun before reeling back to reveal that he's still alive.
51	* InformedAttractiveness: Characters, including side characters, will often compliment the other. Whether it be Ruana telling Yumi that she [[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/669366090191814656/episode-12-page-5 has nice tits]] or a characters[[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/677501622152216576/episode-15-page-18 catcalling other women]], it's something that happens frequently in Gun Kitty.
52	* InMediasRes: The webcomic's first episode starts out this way.
53	* LongLostRelative: [[spoiler: Spade reveals, to Ace, that the two of them are brothers [[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/675193713293754368/episode-14-page-25 in Episode 14]].]]
54	* MacGuffin: the 9andora Box fills this role. It's implied to be of great importance.
55	* ManicPixieDreamGirl: Some might consider Yumi this considering she's a cheerful and up beat girl paired with Ace who has a more subdued and reserved personality.
56	* MsFanservice: Ruana (has lots of sex) and most of the other female characters wear revealing clothing and have curvy figures.
57	* MyParentsAreDead: [[spoiler: Ruana mentions to Ace that Captain Dread killed her parents in [[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/666627909812977664/episode-11-page-17 Episode 11]].]]

61	* NeckLift: Ambrus lifts Ruana in the air by her neck.
62	* NotQuiteDead: Memphis is cut pretty badly by Ace in [[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/672158061027328000/episode-13-page-24 Episode 13]], but is shown to have lived the brutal injury in Episode 15
63	* PapaWolf: Cyrus is this both figuratively and literally as he is a loving father towards Rose while also being a werewolf.
64	* PlaceBeyondTime: Ace has dreams where he encounters Ceangel and other members of the Omega Bloodline. In [[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/669366717726818304/episode-12-page-10 Episode 12]], it's revealed that Ceangel is from centuries before the events of Gun Kitty.
65	* QueerEstablishingMoment: In [[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/669366929975328768/episode-12-page-14 Episode 12]], Spade is revealed to be openly homosexual with his lover, Jack.
66	* ReallyGetsAround: Ruana is sexually active and has it mentioned frequently throughout the series.
67	* RuleOfThree: Three main protagonists.
68	* SexComedy: As seen in many pages, this type of comedy is the norm for the comic. Especially out of Ruana who's no stranger to making sexual references for comedic effect in her dialogue.
69	* ShipTease: Episode 4 of the comic is just this with Ace x Yumi, though Episode 3 has light elements of this as well. Episode 5 also contained brief moments of teasing a relationship between the two.
70	* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: With how frequently Ruana shows skin and actively has sex, it's no surprise that she'd find her way into this role.
71	* ShoutOut: Ace's sword resembles that of Travis Touchdown's Beam Katana. Ruana does the Akira bike slide in [[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/637085317027037184/episode-2-page-24 Episode 2: Page 24]].
72	* SmoochOfVictory: Yumi frequently kisses Ace after a victory.
73	* SuperpowerfulGenetics: The Omega Powers are distinctly linked to Ace's bloodline.
74	* ThePornomancer: Ruana has the distinct ability of meeting people and then having sex with them.
75	* ThePowerOfRock: Episode 6's main combat.
76	* TwoGirlsAndAGuy: Ruana, Ace, and Yumi.
77	* TheHero: Ace fits this role as the hero by getting TheHeart, wielding a sword-like weapon in a sci-fi setting, mainly wears blue, has [[https://gunkittycomic.tumblr.com/post/650934800949149696/episode-5-page-14 electric based abilities]], have [[InvincibleHero won every fight they've been in]], and most of the antagonists are out to get him.
78	* TheLancer: Ruana fits this role with her personality being a foil for Ace and uses a firearm compared to Ace's sword.
79	* TheRival: [[spoiler: Ace's Brother]] Spade is yet another foil for Ace. He seems to be always one step ahead of Ace.
80	* TheCameo: Gun Kitty is full cameos, there is a list below of all known cameos.

85	* VillainDecay: Captain Dread is a frequent villain who, despite trying to be menacing, ends up getting defeated effortlessly time and time again.
86	* VulgarHumor: If you're aware of any of [=GirlyWolfPup=]'s work, you'll know that her favorite kind of jokes tend to be sex jokes.
