[[caption-width-right:350: Not even a fifth of the entire cast.]]

A list of characters for the Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment, Creator/{{Capcom}}, and Creator/{{Sega}} crossover game ''VideoGame/ProjectXZone''. All of these characters retain traits from their source material.

For characters appearing in ''Brave New World'', go [[Characters/ProjectXZone2BraveNewWorld here.]]

----
!!Traits for all characters:

* BadassCrew: The cast is composed of characters who are all capable of putting up a fight to varying degrees.
* BoobsAndButtPose: Practically all girls have at least one story image where they pose like this.
* CallingYourAttacks: The entire cast does this, even if they didn't do so in their home series.
-->'''Dante''': "Shotgun! Fireworks!"\\
'''Jill''': "Genesis! Scan complete!"\\
'''Ulala''': "Tension Blaster!"
* DemotedToExtra: In the sequel, some characters that used to compose pair units are reduced to solo assists.
** Pai Chan now fights as a Solo Unit, with Kage Maru taking her spot with Akira.
** Zephyr now has the services of Vashyron at his side while Leanne becomes a Solo Unit.
** Alisa (the ''VideoGame/GodEaterBurst'' one) is now a Solo Unit while her old partner Soma's whereabouts are unknown.
** T-ELOS is a Rival Unit that never joins the team. KOS-MOS now fights alongside her spiritual successor Fiora.
** Flynn is now a Pair Unit with Yuri, while the latter's previous partner Estelle is a Solo Unit.
* FirstNameBasis:
** With the exception of Ichiro Oogami and Rikiya Busujima, everyone calls everybody by their first names, which is unusual considering half of the characters are from Japan, where LastNameBasis is often used.
** Kazuma Kiryu and Goro Majima from ''VideoGame/LikeADragon'' avert this, since they're commonly called by their last names in their home series. The Crosspedia uses their first names, but the game's UI uses their surnames.
* {{Flanderization}}: Most characters are given exaggerated personality quirks, either to help them stand out amongst the characters or for comical effect. In some instances, the new trait ends up defining the character's entire role, such as [[Characters/StreetFighterI Ryu]] being obsessed with training, [[VideoGame/SakuraWars Sakura]] being the epitome of ClingyJealousGirl and [[VideoGame/SpaceChannel5 Ulala]] becoming a complete {{Cloudcuckoolander}}.
* PostScriptSeason: Applies for the majority of the characters as they are taken from after their most recent appearances.
* ThemeMusicPowerup: The Pair Units each have a piece of music that plays when they use their {{Limit Break}}s.
* TrueCompanions: While the party gradually builds to this, only four Pair Units remain the same in both games: [[OfficialCouple Reiji and Xiaomu]], [[HeterosexualLifePartners Ryu and Ken, X and Zero]], and [[PlatonicLifePartners Chris and Jill]].

!! [[OriginalGeneration Kogoro Tenzai and Mii Koryuujii]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ToshihikoSeki and Creator/YukariTamura (Japanese)
----
* ArmedLegs: Kogoro and Mii have wired blades and guns respectively.
* BadassInANiceSuit: That is one spiffy costume there, Kogoro.
* BadassTeacher: Kogoro is a ninja-for-hire that was employed by the Koryuji family to tutor Mii.
* BifurcatedWeapon: Mii's "Dragon Jewel", a "transformable long barreled gun". She typically uses it more like a baton, occasionally actually firing it. During their Left A attack she splits it into two to fire into the enemy from both ends. Kogoro's "Nyoraito" has two small axe-like blades on the ends that can be pulled out to reveal daggers with bladed handguards.
* BigFancyHouse: Mii lives in a mansion called the Koryuujii estate.
* BigGood: Mii is this in the first game, as she is the one person who can resonate with the Portalstone.
* {{BFG}}: Mii's guns are huge and can somehow [[GunsAkimbo split into two]].
* BlackBeltInOrigami: Mii says she has a black belt in cheerleading.
* BrilliantButLazy: Kogoro's crosspedia entry mentions he has mastered many ninja skills, but usually tends to avoid anything that resembles hard work.
* ChivalrousPervert: Kogoro will casually mention during battle quotes that Mii should raise her legs higher, or do some fan service for good measure.
* DiscOneNuke: Get them to level 4 and Mii learns the skill "Solo Training"[[note]]+20% to EXP[[/note]] and then level them up to level 8 and Kogoro learns the skill "Tenzai Style: Ripple"[[note]]Nullify enemy block[[/note]].
* {{Expy}}: Kogoro and Mii are based on Sun Wukong and Xuanzang from ''Literature/JourneyToTheWest'', respectively.
* FemmeFatale: Mii considers herself to be this.
--> '''Mii''': [[NoblewomansLaugh Oho ho ho!]] You might say I'm a real femme fatale!
* FieryRedhead: Mii easily gets riled up by almost anyone.
* FlashStep: Kogoro does this a lot in his attacks.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Granted Kogoro didn't expect he'd be correct but turns out, the Portalstone is at the fountain. To be specific, underneath it.
* GenkiGirl: Mii is a cheerleader and employs her enthusiasm and choreography in her fighting style.
* GreaterScopeParagon: Mii becomes this due to being PutOnABus in the second game.
%%* TheGunslinger: Mii
%%* GunsAkimbo: Mii
* GuysSmashGirlsShoot: Kogoro mainly fights with his sword and staff, while Mii favours shotguns and revolvers.
* HandsomeLech: Kogoro flirts with the female characters on occasion, though his approach pales in comparison to what Haken and Vashyron do.
* HeroicBSOD: PlayedForLaughs with Mii. Upon finding out that Due ate her [[TrademarkFavoriteFood flan]], she is not amused.
* IKnowMaddenKombat: Mii mentions that her fighting style is derived from Cheerleading.
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3HbiimhKE4 Wanderer's Road]]"
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eueds0JjJOk Hard Time]]" (Special/Multi Attacks)
%%* MentorArchetype: Kogoro.
%%* MiniDressOfPower: Mii
* MonkeyKingLite: Kogoro is close enough to be a Sun Wukong clone, being a staff-fighting ninja detective that has self-multiplication, wears a golden headband similar to Wukong's restrictive headband, and he is bodyguarding Mii, who counts enough as a Tang Sanzang counterpart, even if the teacher-student relations is reversed.
%%* MoreDakka: Mii
* MsFanservice: With her short skirt and plenty of boob-jiggling, Mii fits the bill, though not to the extent of [[VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}} Morrigan]] or [[VideoGame/EndlessFrontier Kaguya]].
* NamedWeapons: Kogoro uses '"Nyoraito", "[[FuumaShuriken Shariken]]", and "[[ArmedLegs Hassojin]]". Mii uses "[[BifurcatedWeapon Dragon Jewel]]", a long barreled gun, "Purple Pot" a multi-shot pistol, and "[[LegCannon Tiger Heels]]" ''four shotguns'' built into the inside of her shoe heels.
* NiceGirl: Despite her hotheaded and selfish demeanor, Mii is actually pretty friendly and cheerful. She even tries cheering up [[VideoGame/SakuraWars Ogami]] in Chapter 37 [[NotNowWereTooBusyCryingOverYou when he thinks the other team members died while being catapulted]] into the [[VideoGame/TalesOfVesperia Tarqaron]].
* {{Ninja}}: Kogoro is a HighlyVisibleNinja. Although to be fair, he's not doing any ninja work. It's stated in his bio that the ninja business is going dry and he chooses to work as a private detective instead.
* PlatonicLifePartners: Though the [[AllThereInTheManual Crosspedia]] says [[TeacherStudentRomance Mii has a bit of a secret crush on Kogoro]], their relationship is overall this.
%%* PlayingWithFire
* PrivateDetective: Kogoro is described to be this in his backstory, though very little investigating actually happens in the game.
* PutOnABus: The two characters do not return for the sequel. They are mentioned in passing, however. Mii is revealed to be working as an "intern" for Shinra while Kogoro provides intel to the party about Shadoloo and Ouma.
* SuperCop: Kogoro is a ''[[{{Ninja}} ninja detective]]''.
* SupportingProtagonist: Kogoro may be part of the leading Pair Unit, but has actually very little importance in the narrative. Most of the plot revolves around Mii.
* TeacherStudentRomance: Despite Kogoro's HandsomeLech tendencies, Mii has a bit of a secret crush on him. However, no such crush is mentioned anywhere in the game but in the Crosspedia.
* TheOjou: Mii is constantly referred to as "ojou" by Kogoro. In the English version, this is changed to "m'lady".
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Mii's favourite dessert is flan. Which is why [[HeroicBSOD she doesn't take it too kindly when Due eats the one she was saving up for later]].
%%* VaporWear: Mii
* VerbalTic: "...ka na" for Kogoro and "-tte ne" for Mii.
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Kogoro finishes their LimitBreak with a SuplexFinisher ''in mid-air.''

!! [[VideoGame/StreetFighterII Chun-li]] and [[VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}} Morrigan Aensland]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/FumikoOrikasa and Creator/RieTanaka (Japanese)
----
* AnimeChineseGirl: Chun-Li is one of the most well-known examples in any media.
* BigDamnHeroes: Riemsianne was in the middle of mind controlling Toma when Morrigan just casually cancels it out.
* BackToBackBadasses: At the end of their MAP attack.
%%* CombatStilettos: Morrigan
* CrutchCharacter: They're ''designed'' to be this at least. But because of how the game works and the fact that they're with you from the start of Prologue 5, they can quickly become one of the more powerful units by the endgame.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Morrigan is a succubus, but lustful behaviour aside, she is actually quite friendly.
* DiscOneNuke: They learn moves a lot faster than other characters, and the first move they learn is Chun-li's Focus Attack [[ChargedAttack (the charged up double palm strike)]] that takes out an enemy's barrier. They also learn their MAP attack much earlier than the other characters, encouraging the player to send them to a crowd with a 100% gauge and let 'em rip. And to speed up the level grinding process, Chun-Li has the skill "Principles of Investigation"[[note]]Increase EXP by 20%[[/note]] ''as soon as you get her in prologue five''. And then she learns [[StatusBuff Yawn]][[note]]10% increase to ''all'' parameters[[/note]].
* DoppelgangerAttack: Morrigan's Astral Vision creates a copy of herself when they use either their Limit Break (her Darkness Illusion) or MAP attack.
* EnergyBall: Chun-Li's Kikoken is a blue ki-based attack, and Morrigan's Soul Fist is a purple projectile shaped like a bat skull.
%%* FairCop: Chun-Li.
* HurricaneKick: Chun-Li's Spinning Bird Kick is a variation, as she performs it upside down and gliding above the ground.
* {{Irony}}: A cop is paired with a succubus who would even go for teens and advises kids on growing up a mature body.
* JackBauerInterrogationTechnique: Chun-Li's method of getting intel is kicking the information out of the enemy, though she's often disappointed that she can't question the enemy afterwards anymore.
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71tzc6Ah0CU Theme of Chun-Li]]" from VideoGame/StreetFighterII (also used for their Multi Attack)
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EM13qUJbQ9M Morrigan Stage (Scotland)]]" from VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}} (also used for their Special Attack)
* LightningBruiser: They are one of the fastest units in the game, can cover good distance and deal decent damage as well.
* MacrossMissileMassacre: Morrigan's Finishing Shower unleashes a barrage of missiles after Chun-li uses her barrier breaking palm strike to stun the opponent.
* OnlySaneMan: Chun-Li is one of the more sensible members of the cast and frequently acts as the voice of reason during the pre-battle dialogues to counterbalance Morrigan and the Solo Units' wackiness.
* PowerCreepPowerSeep: Morrigan is a standout case. It's been pointed out that in all her PostScriptSeason appearances, she should be able to curbstomp the BigBad singlehandedly; but since her species of Succubus can feed on nonsexual stimulation if it's intense enough, she intentionally gimps her strength to get more of a thrill. The incident where she [[spoiler:breaks Reimsianne's mind control with absolutely zero effort]] supports this.
* SpamAttack: Chun-Li's usual Hyakuretsukyaku is a flurry of kicks. The more powerful variant Senretsukyaku is also used for their LimitBreak.
* SphereOfDestruction: Chun-li's Kikosho generates a stationary sphere of energy at the palm of her hands.
* SuccubiAndIncubi: Morrigan is a succubus, so her dialogue is peppered with innuendo and she constantly expresses her desire to "tempt" other members of the cast. Too bad she's partnered with an uptight cop.
* ThisIsADrill: Morrigan's Valkyrie Turn attack turns her legs into this.
%%* VaporWear: Morrigan.
%%* WolverinePublicity

!! [[VideoGame/VirtuaFighter Akira Yuki and Pai Chan]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ShinichiroMiki and Creator/MinamiTakayama (Japanese)
----
%%* AnimeChineseGirl: Pai.
%%* AnimeHair: Akira.
* AlternateCompanyEquivalent: Visually and with regards to popularity and country, with Capcom's Ryu and Chun-Li.
* BadassNormal: The most normal fighters of the entire main cast. They are ordinary martial artists without any superpowers or a HyperspaceArsenal.
* BadassBack: Akira tackles his opponents with his back on a few of their attacks.
* ContinuityNod: Unlike other martial arts-based teams who share the same normal hit sound effects, Akira and Pai use an unique set taken from the VideoGame/VirtuaFighter series.
* DemotedToExtra: Pai becomes a solo unit in the second game
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BSAZx3_pNg Ride the Tiger]]" from VideoGame/VirtuaFighter 2 (also used for their Special Attack)
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycJ-rFZc91w Ai wa Tsuienai/Love Does Not End]]", the theme of ''VideoGame/VirtuaFighter 5'' (also used for their Multi Attack)
* LightningBruiser: Normally they're a MightyGlacier pair. Frequent use of their Swift Qigong skill, however, makes their turn come much sooner.
* YearsTooEarly: A pre-battle quote for Pai, and a post-battle quote for both of them. If Pai says it before a battle, Akira tells her to wait until ''after'' they've finished beating up the opponent to say it.

!! [[VideoGame/DeadRising Frank West]] and [[VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}} Lei-Lei/Hsien-Ko]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RikiyaKoyama and Creator/SaoriHayami (Japanese)
----
* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Hsien-Ko is blue.
* BadassNormal: Frank is just a regular reporter that is unwittingly teamed up with a Chinese vampire.
* BatterUp: With a [[CallingYourAttacks DEAD RISI~~~NG]] included.
* BrickJoke: If you pair them up with Neneko, one of the questions Lei-Lei will ask is what kind of picture will Frank get when he takes a pic of Lei-Lei. [[spoiler: In the ending, it's "Perfect Drama".]]
%%* ChainsawGood
* ChineseVampire: Hsien-Ko will [[InsistentTerminology insist that she's a "jiang shi"]] rather than a zombie (as Chris and Jill call her so, [[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3 again]]).
* ChivalrousPervert: Very subtle. Perfect Erotica! (x5 if it's Kaguya).
* DeathFromAbove: Hsien-Ko's Tenraiha is used for the MAP attack. It will also knock Frank down with a [[DropTheWashtub wash basin]].
* DiskOneNuke: Learns their MAP attack even ''faster'' than Chun-li and Morrigan.
** CrutchCharacter: Early on, between their ability to increase their movement, decent damage, and early MAP attack they're incredibly powerful but as other, faster, characters begin to pick up their MAP attacks and you gain Flynn and Ichiro's full party movement increases Frank and Hsien-Ko can easily begin to fall behind without the help of speed boosting Solo Units.
* HyperspaceArsenal: So much random stuff. Lampshaded by Lei-Lei that her arms might rip from the excessive weapons stored in there.
* ImplausibleBoardingSkills: After doing a Somersault attack, Frank ''conveniently'' lands on a skateboard and casually takes pictures while Lei-Lei/Hsien-Ko drops Tenraiha.
* ImprovisedWeapon: They use anything Lei-Lei happens to pick up. Frying pans, chainsaws, bombs, baseball bats...
* IntrepidReporter: Frank as usual. [[MemeticMutation He's covered wars, you know]].
* {{Irony}}: Frank the zombie survivalist teams up with Hsien-Ko the Chinese "zombie"...
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2PGG0wBDyE Frank West]]" from VideoGame/DeadRising
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyCu9Lhdm4o Hsien-Ko Stage (China)]]" from VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}} (also used for their Special/Multi Attacks)
* MightyGlacier: They're a bit on the slow side as far as field movement goes (though, they become {{Lightning Bruiser}}s if you use their skateboard skill).
* NothingUpMySleeve: Hsien-Ko's gimmick as usual.
* RunningGag: Frank taking pictures of women. Most of the time, the score reads as [[MaleGaze "Perfect Erotica".]]
* WalkingArmory: Lei-Lei/Hsien-Ko even complains that her arms might come off from all of the arsenal that she's carrying.
** Then again, considering she's able to suck any kind of enemy into one of her sleeves regardless of their size during their LimitBreak, some form of HammerSpace is implied.

!! [[VideoGame/NamcoXCapcom Reiji Arisu and Xiaomu]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KazuhikoInoue and Creator/OmiMinami (Japanese)
----
* AcheyScars: Averted in this game; Reiji no longer has to clutch his head whenever Saya appears. A sort of a CallBack to VideoGame/EndlessFrontier, where he only clutched his head whenever he sensed something. This "something" did not include Saya, who is a party member in EXCEED.
* AncestralWeapon: Sorin, Reiji's new ice katana, was originally owned by his father Shogo.
* AliceAllusion: "Arisu in (Place) Land" is the name of a number of stages in the games. Their theme is even called "Arisu in Fluxland".
* AscendedExtra: In the first game, they were just one of the many heroes aiding Mii and Kogoro. The sequel however puts them back in the lead role, [[PutOnABus with Mii and Kogoro nowhere to be seen]].
* AssKicksYou: In their Down-A attack, Xiaomu lunges at her opponent with her buttocks, dealing enough damage to break a five-gauge barrier.
* BorrowedCatchPhrase: Xiaomu mimics Mii's "Huu huu" giggle at the start of her turn in battle.
* BrickJoke: Pairing up with Neneko in the first game results in Xiaomu copying Neneko's mannerisms and Reiji mentioning that she's far too old to be copying a little girl. Xiaomu is introduced right at the start of the 2nd game by saying "Na no da! Na no da!"
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Several jokes Xiaomu makes involve this. For instance, she is the only character to notice everyone has a {{Leitmotif}}.
* CatchPhrase: Having become a little more open this time around, Reiji acquiesces to Xiaomu's demands to yell [[Toys/MachineRobo "MATTE!" and "SEIBAI!"]]. Complete with [[Creator/KazuhikoInoue the appropriate voice]].
* ChangingClothesIsAFreeAction: In their MAP attack, Xiaomu slashes through her enemies, each times cosplaying in something including a schoolgirl uniform, a nurse uniform, a bath towel, a school swimsuit, a miko, before finally ending with a wedding dress.
* ContainmentField: Xiaomu Wave summons an energy sphere that grabs and electrocutes enemies.
* CosplayOtakuGirl: Xiaomu shows this up in their MAP attack where she cosplays as different things with each attack.
* DoubleEntendre: Reiji is completely oblivious about certain things he says that come off as vulgar and sexual-sounding.
* ElementalPowers: Reiji's swords let him manipulate FireIceLightning. One of his chants is also "Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water, Grant me strenght !", referencing the Five Elements Theory.
* FourthWallObserver: Expect the fourth wall being broken whenever Xiaomu shows up in a story cutscene.
* GunsAkimbo: Reiji has a revolver called Gold and a shotgun named Hollywood. Xiaomu wields Silver and Platinum.
* GoroawaseNumber: Xiaomu makes numerous references to 765, which stands for [[Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment Namco]].
* GratuitousEnglish: Xiaomu speaks English when calling her "Xiaomu Wave" attack.
* ImplausibleBoardingSkills: Xiaomu ''surfs'' on her enemies after encasing them on ice.
* InASingleBound: They can jump from ''the top of the Shibuya 601 building'' all the way to the ground with nary a scratch.
* {{Leitmotif}}: All of which return of the sequel, in the same roles as before.
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LMPP0tnq000 Brave New World]]", VideoGame/NamcoXCapcom's opening theme
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3m__d4ya-s Alice in Fluxland/Arisu in the Distorted City]]"

* LittleBitBeastly: Xiaomu is a 700+ year old fox sage with fox ears and her hair fashioned as nine fox tails. She also teased Reiji that he may be into furries since he's with her.
* NamedWeapons:
** Reiji uses three swords called "[[PlayingWithFire Karin]]", "[[ShockAndAwe Chirai]]" and "[[AnIcePerson Sorin]]"; as well as a shotgun called Hollywood and a revolver named Gold.
** Xiaomu uses a SwordCane called Suiren and two guns called Silver and Platinum.
* NotSoAboveItAll: Reiji is straight-laced and professional, but even he's a fan of [[Franchise/AceAttorney Steel Samurai]]. Also, while he never acts perverted in public, he's...very affectionate with Xiaomu in private in the sequel.
-->'''Urashima''': Quiet time, yes. Nothing that would scandalize my Dragonturtle Mk.1 of course. Activity wise.
-->'''Reiji and Xiaomu''': ...
-->'''Urashima''': (blushing) ...Right. [[ChangeTheUncomfortableSubject Moving on]].
* OfficialCouple: [[spoiler: They get HappilyMarried at the end of the sequel.]]
* OtakuSurrogate: Xiaomu makes numerous references to anime at every chance she gets.
-->I'm a [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion cruel angel, and my thesis]] is you're dead meat!
-->[[Anime/IrresponsibleCaptainTylor Irresponsible Captain Xiaomu]], at your service!
* PornStash: Xiaomu hints at having one during a battle conversation with Estelle in the sequel.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: Xiaomu is at least 765 years old. In the sequel, she explains that she lost count after that.
%%* RuleOfSymbolism: Their creed when unleashing [[LimitBreak Shinra Banshou]]
%%* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl
* ShipperOnDeck: If paired up with Flynn, Xiaomu asks him what his relationship with Yuri is like. Though the knight is simply left confused by the question, Reiji promises to punish her later.
* ShutUpHannibal: After defeating Saya for the final time in the second game, she weakly requests Reiji to tell her goodbye. He responds by telling her to go to hell.
* SpeaksInShoutOuts: When a character speaks about something, Xiaomu frequently likes to reference something from that character's game, or reference something pertaining to their voice actor, or any random old Namco game.
* SugarAndIcePersonality: Reiji is always professional ([[NotSoAboveItAll except when he has some hot-blooded moments]]) in public, but when he's with Xiaomu in private, they're.. pretty intense with their affection.
* SwordAndGun: Reiji sometimes combines both Gold and [[PlayingWithFire Karin]] in his attacks.
* SwordAndSorcerer: Not to say Xiaomu can't go personal on the enemies herself, but the two have this dynamic. Reiji focuses completely on kinetic and physical attacks with swords and bullets in a heavier, slower style, while Xiaomu's more agile and has fox magic accompanying her attacks.
* TemptingFate: In Chapter 5 in the sequel, we get this little gem, which is a form of dramatic irony since every player knows what kind of game this is.
--> '''Xiaomu:''' This is quite the party we have here. Good thing it can't get any bigger.
--> '''Reiji:''' Of course not, that'd be ludicrous.
* ThisIsTheFinalBattle: Before the FinalBoss battle with [[spoiler: Byaku Shin]] in the second game:
--> '''Xiaomu:''' ...Reiji, this is it. For you, for me, for everyone...Our very last battle.
* TooKinkyToTorture: Reiji sometimes spanks Xiaomu, though said punishment makes Xiaomu aroused. This actually gets used as a buff, Rosy-Red Kata, which boosts their experience gains.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Xiaomu loves to add fried slices of tofu to her parfait and pizza. The game lampshades her BizarreTasteInFood by claiming her "avant-garde" cooking has a very unique taste.
* UptightLovesWild: Reiji is serious and stoic, yet his partner Xiaomu is wacky and loud. In the second game, [[spoiler:he proposes to her]].
* WhamLine: At the end of the second game.
--> '''Reiji:''' Xiaomu...[[spoiler: will you marry me?]]
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Xiaomu does piledrivers in a few of their attacks as well as how they start their support attack.
* YaoiFangirl: Pair them up with Flynn, and Xiaomu eagerly asks him about his relationship with Yuri. Reiji knows what she's up to and says he'll spank her later as punishment.

!! [[VideoGame/GodEaterBurst Soma Schicksal and Alisa Ilinichina Amiella]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KazuyaNakai and Creator/MaayaSakamoto (Japanese)
----
* DemotedToExtra: Alisa becomes a solo unit in the second game. Soma's fate is unknown.
* GuysSmashGirlsShoot: Soma exclusively smashes with his weapon while Alisa's weapon has an alternative {{BFG}} mode.
* InTheHood: Soma's jacket, reflecting his insociable personality.
* DeathFromAbove: How Soma ends their LimitBreak.
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hb4IHtuTqA4 Over the Couds]]", ''God Eater Burst'''s opening theme (also used for their Special/Multi Attacks)
*** Omitted in the International Versions. Replaced with Lindow's leitmotif,"Hito to Kami To/God and Man -Shall We Meet Again-".
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CkWHBZom36w Endless Voracity/Endless Erosion]]"
*** Also becomes their Special/Multi Attack theme in the International Versions.
* LaserBlade: Soma can transform his {{BFS}} into this.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted. She and Alisa Bosconovitch have the same name. Alisa Bosconovitch is worried that the two having the same name may confuse Soma, who responds that one way to tell the difference between them is that one of them can blow up their head. The Alisa from VideoGame/GodEater then retorts that there are better ways to tell them apart.
* SwissArmyWeapon: Alisa's God Arc. Comes with both {{BFS}}, {{BFG}}, ''and can eat enemies''.
* {{Underboobs}}: Alisa. In fact, the ''only'' character in the party who has them, though curiously enough no one even bats an eye in conversations. Exaggerated in [[http://www.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/pxz210.jpg the second game]] with her second costume, and now EVERYONE takes notice.

!! [[VideoGame/SakuraWars Gemini Sunrise and Erica Fontaine]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/SanaeKobayashi and Creator/NorikoHidaka (Japanese)
----
* ApologeticAttacker: Erica during the dual machine gun attack.
-->'''Erica''': GOMEN NASAI! ''([[MoreDakka riddles her target with bullets]])''
* BigOMG: Gemini yells this when Devilotte threatens to turn the two into a patchwork creation...Then immediately realizes she doesn't even know what a patchwork creation is.
* CatGirl: Erica has a full-body cat suit under her already modest and heavy dress. Makes you wonder how she isn't sweating profusely with everything she does.
* CuteClumsyGirl: Erica in their machine gun attack. She charges in first, trips, Gabriel goes flying, Gemini catches it, and they both shoot the target (with Erica cowering, shooting randomly and holding her hand out to block).
* GratuitousEnglish: Gemini has several {{Engrish}}y lines of dialogue, including all her attack chants. Justified since she is Texan.
* GratuitousFrench: Erica is Parisian and speaks French on occasion, most notably singing her "Bonjour" song during her Good Morning Dance attack.
* GunsAkimbo: Erica's weapons are two machine guns shaped like crosses, which she names Rafael and Gabriel.
* InconsistentDub: Gemini's chants and attacks disregard her game's English dub entirely and are a much more faithful translation from the original Japanese. This means "Stampeding Steed" is now called "Turning Swallow", while "Mifune Swordstyle! Secret Blade Skill!" is changed to "Mifune Ryu Kenpo! It's Finishing Kenpo!"
* InstantCostumeChange: Erica changes from her nun outfit to a CatGirl outfit in an instant.
* LateArrivalSpoiler: Hope you knew that Gemini has a SplitPersonality. It's even manifested in their passive skill, "The Other Gemini"[[note]]All stats except HP are boosted by 10% at 120 XP[[/note]].
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3M-Z2RATnc Chijo no Senshi/Surface Warriors]]", the opening theme of ''VideoGame/SakuraWarsSoLongMyLove'' (also used for their Multi Attack)
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAv62R1c_HY Mihata no Moto ni/Under The Imperial Flag]]", the opening theme of ''VideoGame/{{Sakura Wars 3|IsParisBurning}}'' (also used for their Special Attack)
* LightTheWay: Erica busts out some light attacks during their LimitBreak and MAP attacks.
* MusicalAssassin: Erica has weaponized her Good Morning Dance and Black Cat Waltz in this game.
* NamedWeapons: This is even discussed with Lady.
** Gemini: "Red Sun" for her [[KatanasAreJustBetter katana]]
** Erica: "Gabriel & Raphael" for her machine guns.
* PlayingWithFire: Gemini's attacks can summon flames, which she channels through her katana.
* SwordAndGun: Gemini has a sword and a revolver. She only fought with the former in her own game, but uses both in this one.
* ThirdPersonPerson: Erica refers to herself by her own name. It just adds to her child-like demeanor.
* TokenReligiousTeammate: Erica. Her crossbows are shaped like crosses and her powers are angelic in appearance. That and she is a nun.
* WingedHumanoid: Erica can sprout wings in their MAP attack.

* AscendedMeme: One the skills you can acquire is titled '''[[OnceDoneNeverForgotten Good in the dark.]]'''
%%* BattleCouple
* BlingBlingBang: You can see Leanne wield golden submachine guns during their LimitBreak. It even generates coins from the enemy with each hit (which is how Bonus Hits and Smackdown worked in their original game).
* DemotedToExtra: Leanne becomes a Solo Unit in the sequel with Zephyr and Vashyron teaming up.
* DoNotRunWithAGun: Nope, definitely doesn't apply to them.
* FriendlyFireProof: Even more so than the other characters!
* GunFu: All the way. If they're paired with Lady, they complement her gunplay based on her ability to do flips, which makes her question their standards on marksmanship.
** They also ask Imca why she carries a huge cannon, because it's hard to fire and aim while jumping. Imca just says "I don't jump before I fire my weapon."
* KickingAssInAllHerFinery: You've gotta admit, Leanne looks classy in her not unlike a winter coat dress while she kicks ass.
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89VNSDdsTls Battle to pay the debt [B]]]"
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p5UgZOIL6QE Irruption [B]]]" (also used in their Special/Multi Attacks)
* LightningBruiser: They come up early in the turn order, have above-average moment and normal attack range, come with a skill to ignore enemy ZOC, and can rack up some pretty respectable damage with their full combo. Their only drawback is their DeathOfAThousandCuts damage tends to have trouble chipping through shields...until they learn a skill to ignore that, too.
* MoreDakka: They can hit up to 80 hits ''on their own without support''.
* SlasherSmile: Pair them up with Vashyron and they'll call back to their original game, where Zephyr accuses Leanne in having this whenever you finish an enemy while Vashyron thinks that Leanne is a sadist.
* TrickBomb: They have access to a variety of elemental grenades for their use.

!! [[VideoGame/DotHackR1Games Kite and BlackRose]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Sayaka Aida and Creator/MasumiAsano (Japanese)
----
* {{BFS}}: [=BlackRose=]'s sword is bigger than herself.
* CompositeCharacter: While he's generally Kite, he takes some cues from Azure Kite from ''GU''.
* ConvenientComa: The state their real life bodies are due to them playing The World. [[MindScrew Don't think too much how their avatars are talking to otherwise real life people]].
* CovertPervert: Kite. Or at least [=BlackRose=] thinks so when he says their MMORPG ''The World'' might be more interesting if it implemented ClothingDamage, after seeing Arthur lose his armor.
%%* CrossdressingVoice: Kite
* DualWielding: Kite uses two knives.
* HeroMustSurvive: ''A lot of missions'' involving Aura will require Kite & [=BlackRose=] to survive.
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=01Gk4h7DoOE Toki no Kaidan/Stairs of Time]]", the opening theme of [[Franchise/DotHack .hack]]//Link
** It should be noted that this song isn't from Kite and Blackrose's original game. Link is a franchise wide cross over that was originally made as a last hurrah for the series, that wasn't even released outside Japan. It should also be noted the Real Kite and Blackrose don't even appear in Link.
* LossOfIdentity: One of [=BlackRose=]'s victory quotes has her noting that she's getting used to her character being her body, while looking disturbed at this realization.
* PutOnABus: Blackrose doesn't return in the sequel, getting replaced with Haseo.
* RedBaron: Azure Kite seems to have become this for Kite as of ''R2'', since, once he learns Kite isn't Tri-Edge, he respectfully refers to Kite as such.
* SpectacularSpinning: Practically ''all of their attacks'' involve spinning.
* SphereOfDestruction: Twice in one attack. Their Meteor Strike Multi-Attack starts with Kite firing off a large orb from his bracelet and ends with [=BlackRose=]'s strike causing a large grid like spherical explosion.
* TheGameComeToLife: Kite and [=BlackRose=] can't log out in this game...and then end up in places that are decidedly ''not'' {{Cyberspace}}.

!! [[Characters/StreetFighterI Ryu]] and [[Characters/StreetFighterI Ken Masters]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/HirokiTakahashi and Creator/YujiKishi (Japanese)
----

* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Ryu ends up fighting a brainwashed Ken in the second game.
* BeatTheCurseOutOfHim: Ryu does this with a brainwashed Ken in the sequel by nailing him with a Metsu Shoryuken.
* BrickJoke: When Ryu suggests to pull off his hurricane kick in mid-air for steering, [[VideoGame/GodEater1 Alisa]] doubts he could pull it off. When the capsule they were on suddenly bursts mid-air, guess what Ryu and Ken did to survive from falling mid-air? This happens again in the sequel (in the same context, no less), where Ryu suggests everybody performs a Tatsumaki to guide them in mid-air, which is further turned into a RunningGag when other situations involve everyone having to participate in aerial acrobatics of some kind and Ryu keeps suggesting it as an option, no matter how many times people tell him they can't do it...which makes it more hilarious when Majima takes him up on the offer.
--> '''Felicia''': ''Ryu. The rest of us [[PunctuatedForEmphasis CAN'T. DO. THAT.]]''
* ChargedAttack: Ryu's focus attack, which is perfect for taking out enemies with shields on them. Chun-Li similarly has the same effect.
* CutscenePowerToTheMax: In the sequel, Ken is brainwashed by forces unknown and goes after Ryu with his Guren Senpukyaku. Ryu BLOCKS everything with a Red Focus Attack and retaliates with a Shin Shoryuken.
* DanceBattler: Ken sees himself as this when Felicia comments that fighting is like dancing, then he offers to perform his "Ken-dance". Ryu comments if he was refering to him doing several Shoryukens in a row.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: They have been friends for pretty much their entire lives, and are one of the few Pair Units to remain the same come the sequel. Despite this, Ken's already married to Eliza, and Ryu is implied to be aromantic.
* HurricaneKick: Their Tatsumaki Senpukyaku (Tornado Whirlwind Kick). In the first game they even use it to stay afloat and maneuver in mid-air after being launched from a cannon.
* KamehameHadoken: Their iconic Hadouken plus variations. Taken to awesome in their MAP attack in the sequel where both Ryu and Ken launch a combined Hadouken.
* KiManipulation: Ryu's Hadouken, Shinkuu Hadouken, and the pair's MAP attack where both do a double Hadouken in the sequel.
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BDNBIeU0OKw Volcanic Rim Stage -Street Fighter IV-]]" from VideoGame/StreetFighterIV (also used for their Special/Multi Attacks). Remains as one of their themes in the sequel, while also playing during their Special Attack.
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQeULjVCU14 Theme of Ryu]]" from VideoGame/StreetFighterII. Only present in the first game.
** "Theme of Ryu -SFIV Arrange-" is used in the sequel.
** "Itoshisa to Setsunasa to Kokoro Tsuyosa to", the ending theme to the ''Street Fighter II" animated movie. (Used for their Multi Attack in the sequel)
* LimitBreak: Their first Special Attack combined their original Ultra Combos from ''Street Fighter IV'', the Shinryuken and the Metsu Hadouken. The second variant has Ken perform his second Ultra, the Guren Senpukyaku, instead. Ryu's second Ultra, the Metsu Shoryuken, and both of the regular Super Combos, the Shinkuu Hadouken and the Shoryuu Reppa, make appearances in other attacks.
* MegatonPunch: Ryu's Focus attack and regular Shoryuken do this, but the biggest example is their MAP Attack, [[CombinationAttack SOURYUKEN]], where both of them deal a massive double Shoryuken attack.
* MistakenIdentity: Due to their {{Shotoclone}} status, Ulala mistakes Ryu for Ken when asking for an interview with the latter.
* OldFriend: They both regard Jin as one, following up on the events from VideoGame/NamcoXCapcom.
%%* RedOniBlueOni: Ken and Ryu respectively.
* RunningGag: Whenever the gang gets into aerial shenanigans, Ryu always suggests using the Tatsumaki Senpukyaku to help deal with it. Cue Felicia or anyone else shouting that [[PhraseCatcher no, they can't do that]].
* {{Shoryuken}}: The Trope Namers. The attack is frequently employed throughout their movesets, both in its vanilla form and in the LimitBreak variations.
* {{Shotoclone}}: The original two. Their moves are all a combination of energy balls, hurricane kicks and uppercuts.
%%* WolverinePublicity: Ryu especially.

!! [[VideoGame/SakuraWars Ichiro Ogami and Sakura Shinguuji]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Akiyo Suyama and Creator/ChisaYokoyama (Japanese)
----
%%* BattleCouple
* CovertPervert: If their victory conversation with Devilotte is any indication Sakura has this opinion about Ichiro, which when you remember Sakura Wars' concept of relationship values, does make sense in a way.
* ClingyJealousGirl: Sakura's the only one who has an annoyed expression whenever Ichiro hits on somebody by accident. When he accidentally hits on Kaguya, Sakura and Haken do not take it lightly.
* DualWielding: Ichiro, though Sakura also does this during their LimitBreak.
* ElementalPowers: They miss out on the Ice attacks though.
* FlatWhat: Sakura's jealous expression easily doubles as this.
* GreenEyedMonster: If a pretty girl compliments Ichiro anytime during the game, Sakura will do this.
* GuiltComplex: Ichiro gets one in [[spoiler:chapter 37 when he blames himself for even attempting to launch the group to the Tarqaron and thus had casualties on their side. [[NotNowWereTooBusyCryingOverYou Turns out they're alright]], though it's lampshaded by the group that the things they did to survive that should not be humanly possible.[[note]][[VideoGame/StreetFighterII Ryu and Ken]] did a Tatsumaki Senpuu Kyaku in mid-air, [[VideoGame/{{Tekken}} Alisa]] and [[Anime/{{Yumeria}} Neneko]] kept flying around, [[VideoGame/ResonanceOfFate Zephyr and Leanne]] made a ''huge jump" in mid-air, [[VideoGame/MegaManX Zero used his Hienkyaku and Kuuenbu in mid-air, and X used his Ultimate Armor to float]]. All of these, they can do in their own respective games.[[/note]]]]
* InstantCostumeChange: If they're executing their LimitBreak, it's Sakura who changes to her soldier outfit. While if it's their MAP attack, it's Ichiro who changes to his civilian outfit.
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aeb-cfs5qxU Geki! Teikoku Kagekidan/Manifest! Imperial Floral Assault Group]]", the theme of the original ''VideoGame/SakuraWars'' (also used in their Special Attack)
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZooFIXGWqk Main Theme]]" (also used in their Multi Attack)
* NamedWeapons: "Reiken-Arataka" for Sakura's katana and "Shintou-Nagayasu" for Ogami's katana.
* NitroBoost: Ichiro's "Captain Command - Wind" skill is the closest, casting a +2 Square Movement on ''every ally''. Definitely useful on a TimedMission or if you want your characters to get to their location faster.
* SwordAndGun: Ichiro does keep a gun with him and he'll use his right hand to shoot enemies.
* ThePowerOfLove: ''It kills enemies'' [[spoiler:and is able to restore a gigantic sakura tree back to life]].

!! [[Characters/DevilMayCryDante Dante]] and [[VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}} Demitri Maximoff]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ToshiyukiMorikawa and Creator/NobuyukiHiyama (Japanese)
----
* AccidentalMisnaming: Demitri keeps reminding people that he doesn't want to be called Demi-Demi. [[note]]This is a CastingGag in-joke, in which both actors are actual [[HeterosexualLifePartners friends]] whom are infamously known by their [[AffectionateNickname nicknames]]. To be precise, "Mori-Mori" and "Hi-chan".[[/note]]
* AnimeHair: Demitri. [[AllThereInTheManual He discretely carries a can of hairspray to maintain it after every battle.]] He even lampshades it in a victory quote:
--> "''Hmm...It appears that this battle has disturbed my hair.''"
* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Demitri as usual. When Riela shows off her Valkyrian powers, he states that her power output is just normal for him.
** The comment to Riela can also be assumed to be a subtle [[CombatCompliment compliment]]. Normal in Makai is still far beyond a normal person, being [[OneManArmy capable of taking on a small army alone]].
%%* BadassCape: Demitri
%%* BadassLongcoat: Dante
* BatOutOfHell: Their MAP attack consists of Demitri turning into bats while Dante plays Nevan.
** As expected, this is more or less Demitri's secondary gimmick, as can be expected from a vampire. Parodied when they're paired with Ulala, who's surprised at the brightness of his aura, which causes Demitri to let out an EvilLaugh and shout out "I'm Batmaster!" in GratuitousEnglish. Dante also expresses surprise, but mostly towards the fact that there's so many demons with a sense of humor.
* CatchPhrase: Dante's "Jackpot!" shows up again here.
* FacePalm: Demitri does this occasionally.
%%* HalfHumanHybrid: Dante
* {{Irony}}: A devil hunter paired with a vampire devil.

** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ezm13V3TvbU Ultra Violet (Nelo Angelo Battle)]]" from ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry1'' (Multi Attack)
* MundaneUtility: When asked by Neneko, one of the reasons why Demitri's showing off his aura is so he can use it ''as a sunscreen'' (or, at least, that's how Dante describes it).
* NamedWeapons: Dante carries [[CoolSword Rebellion]], Ebony & Ivory, [[ShotgunsAreJustBetter Coyote-A]] and [[MusicalAssassin Nevan]]. [[note]]Nevan only shows up in his and Demitri's MAP attack.[[/note]]
* NotSoAboveItAll: Demitri is not above jokes and gags, one example being when he says "[[CastingGag I'm Batmaster]]!" when asked for a comment from Ulala.
* RedOniBlueOni: Dante's Red while Demitri's Blue. It's even the color of their clothes.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Pair them up with Valkyrie and when you kill the enemy, Dante will invite her to eat strawberry sundae and pizza with him.

!! [[VideoGame/EndlessFrontier Haken Browning and Kaguya Nanbu]]

----
* BadassLongcoat: Haken wearing his cowboy costume.
* BattleCouple: They even get to flirt with each other while in the middle of a battle.
%%* {{BFS}}: Kaguya's Zankantou.
* CatchPhrase: Haken has "Welcome to the Endless Frontier" as one. Albeit its not used as much as the original game. Kaguya has her version of Sanger's "I am the sword that cleaves evil".
* ChivalrousPervert: Haken at times, but Kaguya is too ditzy to notice such vague statements.
* ContinuityNod: In ''Endless Frontier,'' Kaguya states that she took dancing lessons from her friend Suzuka. Here, she uses sone of Suzuka's fan-dance moves as one of her special attacks
* CrazyJealousGuy: Downplayed with Haken, who knows how to keep his cool, with people like ChickMagnet and CovertPervert [[VideoGame/SakuraWars Ichiro]] and KnightInShiningArmor [[VideoGame/TalesOfVesperia Flynn]], Haken becomes very justifiably wary.
--> '''Haken (About Flynn)''': Damn. There aren't any guys like him in the Endless Frontier...
* DanceBattler: Even more notable in this game. Kaguya actualy used a fan with her dance as a ShoutOut to Suzuka.
%%* DeathFromAbove: Kaguya's '''[[{{Kiai}} CHESTO!]]'''
* TheDitz: Whenever someone compliments Kaguya's, er, Buster Bunkers, she will always be confused as to what they're talking about.
* {{Expy}}: They both get to meet [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Sanger]], whom they're half-based from.
* GunsAkimbo: Haken's Jackpot move uses both his Nightfowl and his Longtomb Special.
* HandCannon: Haken's Longtomb Special has a ''very long'' barrel.
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uubro-t-6sg In The Land Beyond Endless "Time"]]" (also used in their Special Attack; also the Multi Attack theme in the international version)

*** Ommited in The International Version. Replaced with the above.
* LovableSexManiac: It's Haken we're talking about here.
* MsFanservice: Kaguya is undoubtedly ''the [[VisualPun biggest]]'' providers of these. [[InnocentFanserviceGirl Of course, she doesn't notice it.]]
** For a sense of scope here, whenever Frank West meets a female character who's heavy on the Fanservice, he takes a photo of them which receives a Perfect (Erotica) rank. When he meets Kaguya, he does this with ''every one of her dialogue poses in rapid succession''.
* NamedWeapons: Haken is still using his Nightfowl and his Longtomb Special. And of course, Kaguya's Zankantou.
* {{Nerf}}: In the same vein as KOS-MOS, Haken was a [[GameBreaker monster]] [[VideoGame/EndlessFrontier in his own game]]. In this game he, well [[BattleCouple they]], are pretty average.
** To be fair, he doesn't have Alt Eisen Nacht and Weissreiter Abend to call and wipe out his enemies. That and he loses his utter dominance over CriticalHit (in this game this is based on timing instead of chance) and his utterly broken [[WaveMotionGun Quad Solitaire]]. It seems Banpresto finally succeeded at balancing him.
*** At least until you realize that they have ''two attacks'' that can break a ''five-gauged barrier'' (Haken's Texas Hold 'Em and Kaguya's Nyorai no Hachi (A) and Five Card Stud (Left + A)). That and they can attack an extra square away (two if casting Haken's first spirit command), easy chainable combos thanks to their natural high Tec stat, and if you're good with the timing, ''a lot of Critical Hits.'' To top it off Kaguya retains her Love command, allowing her to heal the entire party to full at once. However, to balance it out, it's the most expensive skill in the game at 130% XP, meaning you can't use XP-restoring items to use it in an emergency since only Cross Hits allow you to fill the gauge past 100%.
* TheNicknamer: ''Everyone'' gets a nickname from Haken. He calls Blackrose ''virtual girl'' and Ryu ''street fighter'' for starters.
* OppositeSexClone: Haken's the opposite clone and son of [[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Lemon Browning]] though it's not mentioned in-game.
* PutOnABus: Nowhere to be found in the sequel. ''[[VideoGame/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration SRW OG: The Moon Dwellers]]'' has an extra side-story explaining where Haken and Sanger are. Kaguya meanwhile is busy running her kingdom.
* RunningGag: People are still convinced that Kaguya is actually a cow.
* VaporWear: Just look at Kaguya's dress.
* WaveMotionGun: Haken's Longtomb Special.
* YouAreNumberSix: Well, Haken ''is'' W-00 of the W-Numbers.

%%* BloodKnight: Yuri as usual.
* CombatMedic: Even if she can't exactly be one, Estelle still has healing skills and naturally fights.
* DeadpanSnarker: Yuri, naturally. Many conversations with other quirky characters make him this, with Estelle not having much of a clue what they say.
* DemotedToExtra: Flynn becomes Yuri's partner in the sequel, leaving Estelle to become a support unit.

* NervesOfSteel: It takes alot for Yuri to actually be surprised.
* SpamAttack: Both Yuri and Estelle during their LimitBreak: Yuri spams Savage Wolf Fury, leaving the enemy open for Estelle to bombard them with Holy Lance. Another occurs when Yuri uses Divine Wolf during their MAP Attack, while Estelle charges Sacred Penance.
* SpinAttack: The fan-favorite Shining Fang is still one of Yuri's attacks.
%%* SwordAndSorcerer: A more traditional version.

* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Before a battle, Kurt will suddenly envision a new recipe when looking at the enemy.
* CluelessChickMagnet: Par for the course for Kurt, with both Riela and Imca swooning over him if they win a battle together.
* ColonelBadass: Kurt even leads the party for Operation Crackdown.
* DeliciousDistraction: Pair them up with Tron, and Kurt will immediately get distracted by the Servbots' talk about curry services.
* HyperspaceArsenal: You don't see them lugging their weapons around and yet they just magically appear out of nowhere.
%%zce* INeedAFreakingDrink: Kurt brought his candies along with him.
* IronicEcho: PlayedForLaughs with Riela after telling the party not to be afraid of her Valkyrian powers.

* ThrowAwayGuns: They usually put their weapons back into their HyperspaceArsenal after use, but some expensive looking stuff still gets discarded after use, including a rocket launcher and a {{BFS}}.

----
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Jin is overall much warmer and friendlier here than he is in his own series (even accounting his [[TookALevelInJerkass personality]] before his HazyFeelTurn in ''Tekken 6''), though he retains his generally stoic demeanour. Pertinently, [[EnemyMine he is willing to team up with both his father and grandfather in this series]], albeit very reluctantly. In the canonical series, [[ThePowerOfHate Jin hates Kazuya and Heihachi so much that he would probably never team up with them even in the direst circumstances]], as his overarching goal is to kill them.
* BadassInDistress: The first time you see him, Jin's Devil Gene is acting up, so Akira and Pai must get through to him (which is practically on your first turn unless you foolishly went and tried beating up the {{Mooks}}).
* BadassNormal: Xiaoyu. While Jin has the Devil Gene backing him up, she has basically nothing but training and [[WaifFu invisible]] muscle.
* BattleCouple: Well, Xiaoyu certainly wants to believe they are one, but Jin prefers to [[CelibateHero remain celibate]] for the sake of quarantining his Devil blood.
* BigScrewedUpFamily: When paired up with Ulala, she asks Jin about his family but is turned down quickly by Xiaoyu.
* CanonDiscontinuity: The ''Project X Zone'' series glosses over Jin's borderline FaceHeelTurn from ''Tekken 6'' onwards and presents him as the heroic person he was up until ''Tekken 5''.
%%* FightingPanda: [[ADogNamedDog Panda]] is a giant panda that's Li Xiaoyu's pet mascot and is also the DistaffCounterpart of Kuma (a grizzly bear and Heihachi's mascot). Having martial artists as their owners, both bears can fight any opponent, having the "style" of Kuma Shinken made by Heihachi, who also taught Panda to be Xiaoyu's bodyguard.

* BattleCouple: Though, given their conflict with Riemsianne, they came from a point in their game where [[BelligerentSexualTension neither one of them have yet to admit to it]].
* {{BFS}}: [[MorphWeapon The Shining Force]]. When not in use Toma's takes the form of an arm guard while Cyrille's takes the form of a large book.
* ChickMagnet: Cyrille blushes when it's suggested she likes Toma, Neneko develops a crush on Toma, and Saya calls Toma cute.
* ComicallyMissingThePoint: After Toma lets Riemsianne use the Geo-Fortress to get back to their world, Neneko points out that she has a crush on him because he's so cool. [[EveryoneCanSeeIt Cyrille too]]. Toma simply wonders why Neneko would have a crush on Cyrille.
%%* CrossdressingVoice: Toma

* ImprobableWeaponUser: Their Down+B attack has Cyrille freezing the enemy in a stalagmite. Right after, she gets close to it and starts ''banging it away with her book.''
* {{Irony}}: They're a BattleCouple in this game; however in their source game, one has to do the adventuring and the other has to guard the base at all times.
* LateArrivalSpoiler: While it was kept secret for most of their game, Shining Force [[spoiler:is not a single sword but a pair of swords.

* TheChosenOne: Both of them were chosen by the Shining Force.
* TranquilFury: Very common for Cyrille, and often played for laughs.
* UnskilledButStrong: One of Toma's attack animations involves smashing the Shining Force (a sword) like a hammer.
* TheUnsmile: Sometimes, when you group them with Neneko, Cyrille will try to act more cheerful after Neneko gives her a compliment. Toma is not impressed.
* UngratefulBitch: Cyrille's a LOT more shallow than she looks. Her first instinct upon meeting everyone for the first time? They look weird to her, so they mustn't be trusted.

'''Ryu:''': "So you judge people by their looks. Noted."
** She also suggests outright killing their foes.

!! [[VideoGame/{{Xenosaga}} KOS-MOS and T-elos]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Mariko Suzuki (Japanese)
----
%%* BadassCreed: When the both of them recite Shion's Spell Blade.
* ChestBlaster: They fire both D and U-TENERITAS from their chests, while KOS-MOS fires off her X-BUSTER from her belly. Lampshaded with their intro dialogue with Imca, who says there's no reason to expose yourself when firing your strongest weapons, to which they just reply that it's the way they were designed and she should go blame their creators about it.
* TheComicallySerious: In spite of KOS-MOS' stoicism and T-elos' hostility, the two can be rather amusing from time to time.
-->'''T-elos''': The fact that I even had to deal with scum like this makes me sick!\\
'''KOS-MOS''': [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Getting sick is not one of our functions.]]
* EnemyMine: T-elos teams up with KOS-MOS when the latter almost gets absorbed by [[VideoGame/StreetFighterIV Seth]]. This doesn't stick in the sequel as T-elos becomes a rival unit again.
* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: KOS-MOS agrees to give Seth a tour of the Woglinde ship. Ken even lampshades what a horrible idea that was:
-->'''Ken''': Right, 'cause it's not like he's [[ObviouslyEvil RIDICULOUSLY OBVIOUSLY EVIL]] or anything.
* KickThemWhileTheyAreDown: At the end of T-elos' T-Skylla move, she stomps on her downed opponent's head and pulls a BoomHeadshot with the gun on her heel.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXdcmCodjBk The Battle Of Your Soul]]" from VideoGame/{{Xenosaga}} Episode III
* MightyGlacier: Too slow to do almost anything unless you use KOS-MOS' "Boost" command, arter which they become [[LightningBruiser Lightning Bruisers]].
* MesACrowd: Towards the end of the game you will fight clones of T-elos as enemy solo units.
* MoreDakka: After firing Storm Waltz, they summon their gatling guns out of nowhere and proceed to fire even ''more bullets''.
* NeatFreak: A joke dating back to the start of the first Xenosaga game, KOS-MOS will ask T-elos to clean her after she points out that her appearance has diminished by 5%. T-elos tells her off.
* {{Nerf}}: After ''VideoGame/NamcoXCapcom'' and ''VideoGame/EndlessFrontier'' made KOS-MOS by her lonesome one of the most powerful characters of their respective casts, they're just reduced to [[LightningBruiser Lightning Bruisers]] in this game. While still powerful, they don't get any barrier-busting moves nor any awesome quirks with their skill set (aside from Boost), not to mention their walking range (but not their ''attacking range'') is practically paltry so you don't exactly benefit too much out of them.
* PromotedToPlayable: T-elos went from support character in ''[[VideoGame/EndlessFrontier EXCEED]]'' to KOS-MOS' secondary character.
* RedOniBlueOni: T-elos is the more impulsive one, while KOS-MOS is the calmer one.
* RobotGirl: Both of them are androids.
* SeriousBusiness: T-elos' desire to duel KOS-MOS. She partners up with the latter to stop Seth [[TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou killing her before she got the chance]], stays with the group so they can have their showdown in their native universe where she knows it'll stick, and even tells KOS-MOS to get her [[VerbalTic voice glitch]] fixed before then so she won't ruin the moment.
* SlasherSmile: T-elos' smiles are almost always creepy and deranged.
* SphereOfDestruction: D and U Teneritas, which they fire from their chests during their LimitBreak, take the form of energy spheres that engulf the opponent.
* SharingABody: KOS-MOS sometimes has blue eyes instead of her usual [[RedEyesTakeWarning red eyes]]. [[spoiler: That's because she's the container for Mary Magdalene who tells the dwellers of Earth "[[ContinuityNod Farewell, dwellers of Lost Jerusalem."]]]]
* TokenEvilTeammate: T-elos makes it a point that her teaming with KOS-MOS is only temporary and that once all is said and done, she'll come after her next. Which she does in the sequel.
* VerbalTic: KOS-MOS still has a vocal bug that's been plaguing her for a couple of games, causing her to end her sentences with "nya".

%% Do not change it to Mega Man X, that’s not his name. He was called that only in one game, with a shoddy translation to boot.
%%
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TakahiroSakurai and Creator/RyotaroOkiayu (Japanese)
----
* AscendedGlitch: Zero's dash & slash exploit in X4, it's one of his regular attacks in here. He also reverses direction during a Kuuenzan in one of the moves, which could be used to get additional hits out of it and increase Zero's hangtime.
* BlowYouAway: X's Double Cyclone (X4) and Storm Tornado (X1) summon strong gusts of wind. The former creates two cyclones from his palm, while the latter surrounds his body in a tornado.
* CallBack: X questions Zero again if X becomes a Maverick/Irregular prompting Zero to cut him off and not think on useless things, just like their conversation in X's ending in X4.
* ChargedAttack: X can charge his Weapons to produce different effects. For example, his regular buster produces a much larger projectile if he channels its energy for a while.
* CompositeCharacter: X being able to use Variable Weapons from his first four adventures at once, without changing colors between them even; also being able perform attacks that otherwise only his fully armored self could do, such as his quadruple charged shot and the Hadouken.
* GratuitousEnglish: X's attacks are spelled (katakana) and spoken in english.
* GratuitousJapanese: Zig-zagged. In the Western versions, Zero's attacks are still left intentionally untranslated, but Genmurei is localized as Genmu Zero.
%%* GroundPound: Zero's Rakuhouha move, as well as X's full-charge Triad Thunder in the sequel.
* HeroicBSOD: Zero is paralyzed when he sees Iris, whose return shakes his belief to the very core. His inability to fight means you have to save both X and Zero or defeat Vile within Turn 8, otherwise it's game over.
* AnIcePerson:
** X's Frost Tower summons an ice pillar with spikes to damage the opponent.
** Zero's Hyouretsuzaun has him stab the opponent from above while enveloping his saber in ice.
** In the sequel, X enters the battlefield for Cross Hit supports by riding on an ice platform, which he can make with the Charged Shotgun Ice (the bottom half of it even ''looks'' like the boss that gives him said weapon, [[VideoGame/MegaManX1 Chill Penguin]]).
* KamehameHadouken: X can perform the Hadouken, a move that produces a blue fireball from his hands. He also learns Ryu's Shinku Hadouken, which turns it iinto an actual gigantic beam wave, much more in common with the Kamehameha than the Hadouken. Ryu actually points this out when X and Zero learn their MAP attack by sensing X's energy and realizing how strong his spirit is. This is also a subtle nod of X being stronger than Ryu as shown with X's ''regular'' Hadouken being leagues above Ryu's.
* LaserBlade: Zero's main weapon, the Z-Saber, is a blade made of green energy.
* {{Leitmotif}}: The former two are only used in the original game, while the latter two are used in the sequel.
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apxIgo7oMxo Opening Stage X]]" from ''VideoGame/MegaManX4'' (also used in their Special Attack)

** "Opening Stage Zero" from ''VideoGame/MegaManX4" (also used in their Multi Attack)
* MistakenIdentity: Tron thinks X is Volnutt the first time the two meet.
* PowerCopying: Not actually in this game, but referenced repeatedly. X is often disappointed by the lack of new weapons after his enemies fall.
* PlayingWithFire:
** X can shoot a fireball upwards with the Rising Fire weapon; has a traditional flamethrower in the form of the Fire Wave he acquired in his first game; and can also perform the Shoryuken, an uppercut that sets his fist on fire.
** Zero's Ryuenjin has him set his saber on fire and jump for a blazing upwards slash.
%%* RammingAlwaysWorks: X's Nova Strike.
%%* RedOniBlueOni
%%* ShockAndAwe: X's Triad Thunder from X3, Zero's Raijingeki (X4) and Raikousen (X8).
* {{Shoryuken}}:
** X can charge the Rising Fire weapon to perform a rising uppercut that sets his fist on fire.
** In the sequel, X can perform Ryu's iconic rising uppercut move in their MAP Attack.
%%* SpinAttack: Vertically with Zero's Kuuenzan from X4.
* SwordAndSorcerer: Zero focuses on melee attacks with his saber, while X mainly fights with projectiles.
%%* SwordBeam: Zero's feared Genmurei from X5 (Genmu Zero in Western versions), and X's Twin Slashers (X4) to a lesser extent due looking like standard sword beams but they are fired from his X-Buster instead.
%%* ThisIsADrill: X's Tornado Fang.
* WallJump: While X and Zero are known for using this frequently in their source game, it's notable in their Special Attack when they wall jump up thin air.
* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: In the second game, when Valkyrie leads the group to a part of Marvel Land with a castle and some moving platforms over spike pits, both of them are terrified of them and X even asks her what "vision of hell" she's taken them to, referring to instantly lethal nature of SpikesOfDoom in their home series. The rest of the group is suitably confused of their reaction, wondering why a pair of nimble robots like them are so scared of simple platforming and why do they think that regular spikes would even damage their metal bodies. On their end, X and Zero proceed to take the relatively safer option of a catapult ride instead.

!! [[VideoGame/ResidentEvil Chris Redfield and Jill Valentine]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/HirokiTochi and Creator/AtsukoYuya (Japanese)
----
* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: In VideoGame/ResidentEvilRevelations, the Genesis is useless in battle, as its only function is finding hidden items and collecting data. In the Project X Zone games however, it not only keeps its scanning properties, but also stuns enemies and destroys their defenses.
* ATasteOfPower: When they first appear in prologue 5, they already have access to their MAP attack. Naturally, you don't get them again until stage 21 and they're the final unit to join you. Ironically, they're the first unit to join you in the sequel.
%%* AwesomenessByAnalysis: The Genesis device.
* BadassNormal: All they're got going for them is their fighting skills and guns. ''Lots'' of guns. Chris also punches boulders.
* BookEnds: Of a sort. They were the last Pair Unit to be recruited in the first game, then become the first duo to join Xiaomu and Reiji in the sequel.
* CompositeCharacter: While her design is based on ''Resident Evil 6'', Jill uses some retro moves derived from her original fighting game debut, ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom2'', most notably her "Charging S.T.A.R.S." [[AwesomenessIsVolatile burning]] shoulder tackle.
* GoodOldFisticuffs: Chris will sometimes use punches in addition to his guns.
* HyperspaceArsenal: Where exactly do they keep their big guns anyway?
* HypocriticalHumor: In a conversation with Busujima, Jill decides to let Chris train more in CQC for as long as he doesn't wrap himself in flames. One of her attacks is her Charging S.T.A.R.S. special from VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom2 where she does the exact same thing. She does this again in the sequel's ending where she mentions if Chris started emitting fire or lightning from his fists, their partnership is off.
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPxlL8ZWC0w Ride on Sea]]" from ''VideoGame/ResidentEvilRevelations'' (also used in their Special/Multi Attacks). Returns as one of their themes in the sequel, while also playing in their Special Attack.
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3d2Kb0fhcg Terragriga Panic I]]", also from Revelations. Only used in the first game.
** "Ship Battle" is added in the sequel (also used in their Multi Attack)
* KickChick: Jill does a few kicks on her own, including their LimitBreak.
* MoreDakka: Most of their attacks involve them unloading as much firepower into their targets as possible, mixed with some martial arts and boulder-punching.
* NamedWeapons: The Pale Rider revolver and Muramasa sniper rifle. Chris uses the Pale Rider in both games for their Special Attack while the Muramasa is added to Jill's arsenal in the sequel.
* PlatonicLifePartners: At least in this game. In the main series, it can depend if you look at their interactions as LikeBrotherAndSister or BattleCouple.
* TeasedWithAwesome: Their MAP attack. You won't get any access to any MAP attacks until you at least level up Frank and Lei-Lei/Hsien-Ko a lot, who learn it the earliest.
* TrueCompanions: One of four Pair Units to stay together for the sequel.
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: After everything they've been through, even in their home series, Chris and Jill don't seem bothered by the events going on. In the sequel, Leon calls out on this.

%%* BadassBack
* BadassLongcoat: He wears a cool longcoat stereotypically associated with Japanese delinquent gangs.
* BadassNormal: Another fighting game character without any sort of supernatural ability.
* BloodKnight: If he can't fight it, he isn't interested. He's NotDistractedByTheSexy when paired up with Chun-Li and Morrigan.
* ClothingDamage: His sleeves to be exact when he rips them out. By the time you summon him again, it magically repairs itself only to get ripped again.

* {{Leitmotif}}: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nKGtf7USRW0 Armstone Town Day]]"
* MegatonPunch: Super Straight.
* NoShirtLongJacket: Again, typical of the old-school delinquent archetype in Japanese pop culture.
* NotDistractedByTheSexy: Pair him up with Morrigan and Chun-li. Morrigan will ask him if he's enjoying being surrounded by beautiful women. He is, but because they're so buff that they'd make great Vipers. Chun-li admonishes him to compliment girls by calling them "buff."
* TheRival: Wants to fight against Batsu at Ropponggi for some reason.
* {{Shoryuken}}: Dragon Upper. He tries to teach it to a willing Akira.
%%* WalkingShirtlessScene
* WhatTheHellHero: Calls out Batsu why he wasn't at Roppongi where they were supposed to fight each other, though Batsu couldn't really do much about that one with all the dimension warping going on.

* BadassNormal: His only abilities are jumping really high and firing his gun.
* ChivalrousPervert: Nearly every time he mentions a girl in many of his pair combinations, he expresses perverse attraction to them, even if they haven't "developed" yet but show "potential." His in-game character bio even [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] that his gross behaviour could easily be construed as sexual harassment in real life, almost as if to say DontTryThisAtHome to any male gamers hoping to take notes.
* GunFu: Like Zephyr and Leanne, his fighting style mixes gun-play and explosives with acrobatics.
* HandsomeLech: He's extremely crude and lecherous towards basically every female character, though he does have some charm.

If you pair him up with Yuri and Estelle, he tries to commission Brave Vesperia to get him some booze, and if you pair him up with Mii and Kogoro, she starts acting like a barmaid in response to his demands for booze but shortly comes to her senses.
** Brought up in the sequel. While Lindow doesn't appear, it's obviously him who orders Alisa to accompany the group just so she can sneak back some alcohol and cigarettes from the past to him. Also [[{{Otaku}} anime.]]
* BifurcatedWeapon: His {{BFS}} has a gun and can eat enemies.
* HappilyMarried: If you pair him up with Chun-Li and Morrigan, the latter will ask whether he feels lonely without his wife with him, which he answers that some couples are just like that.
* ImprovisedTraining: Refers to his adventures in this game as a "rehabilitation". [[LateArrivalSpoiler There's a reason for that...]]

* AdaptationalHeroism: Despite being quite unremittingly AffablyEvil in his home series, Heihachi joins the heroic side with little fuss in both instalments of the ''Project X Zone'' series.
* AndTheAdventureContinues: In the first game, he vaguely mentions something about wanting to investigate the Antarctic for undisclosed reasons a couple of times, [[{{Foreshadowing}} leading into the events]] [[VideoGame/StreetFighterXTekken of a concurrent Namco-Capcom crossover game with "X" in the title.]]
* BigScrewedUpFamily: Wishes he could have Gemini and Erica instead of his stupid son and grandson.
* BigDamnHeroes: In the second game, he kills off two zombies and berates Phoenix for needing to be rescued.
* CallBack: When pulling his BigDamnHeroes for Phoenix and Maya in the second game, he uses the MAP attack he uses in the first when fought as an enemy unit.
* DemotedToExtra: From playable in ''VideoGame/NamcoXCapcom'' to support character in this game.
* FountainOfYouth: He apparently had one made, justifying his much younger appearance. His black-haired design in this game, much like in ''VideoGame/PlaystationAllStarsBattleRoyale'', ties into the then-most recent ''Tekken'' game, ''Tekken Tag Tournament 2''.
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: He starts off being a support character, then decides to side with Jedah for one battle (and he just stands there; defeating him isn't even important to that stage's goals - unless you decide you want the treasures that are in his direction, ''then'' he starts pursuing and attacking you), then at the end of the same battle decides to join you for good.
** Averted in the sequel; he's alongside you the entire way.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Tekken Tag Tournament -Piano Intro- Massive Mix" (in both games)
* MesACrowd: Toward the end of the game you will fight several copies of all of the Solo Units who were ever enemies. Jin is thrilled to have so many Heihachis to beat down.
* MusclesAreMeaningful: Suggest to many males in the cast to work out and grow big muscles like him.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Despite the fact that he's ''younger looking'' compared to his ''VideoGame/NamcoXCapcom'' incarnation, he's still a grandpa. Many characters aware of his identity doubt him because of his looks alone.
* PetTheDog: In his post-battle conversation with Ryu and Ken, Heihachi offers to adopt Ryu (the intention making Ryu his heir and surpassing Kazuya and Jin). Ryu seems mildly interested, but Ken insists he fix the issues in his own family instead.
* TokenEvilTeammate: In his own series, he's an extremely CorruptCorporateExecutive and almost singlehandedly responsible for everything bad that happens. Understandably, Jin hates the idea of having him around on the heroes' team. Heihachi shows annoyance about how Shadaloo refuses to share their R&D data with him.

* {{BFS}}: Kaguya powers his sword up, turning it into the massive Reishiki Zankantou, a miniaturized copy of the weapon he usually swings using a HumongousMecha.

* CatchPhrase:
** Aside from his usual InTheNameOfTheMoon speech, he gains a new one: "Did you call for me!?"
** If you pair him up with Dante and Demitri, they even get to discuss a new catchphrase for him which he thinks it's not bad. The phrase in question: The sword that cleaves demons.
* ContrivedCoincidence: Until Stage 27, whenever Phantom appears as an enemy, he's not present at all. Which is why he expresses surprise at the Gespenst when he sees it for the first time.
%%* DeathFromAbove: '''[[{{Kiai}} CHESTO!]]'''
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: Played with. Sanger starts the game as a heroic support unit, but turns into a rival unit to challenge Yuri, given that they are both [[BloodKnight Blood Knights]] who distrust each other. After this short conflict, he immediately goes back to being a hero, though the game still treats him as a villain, as he has lines of dialogue when all the antagonistic teammates decide to [[spoiler:accept Juri into the team]].

* AssistCharacter: Grand Kaiser, Mobilsuit α & β, and Blodia (from ''VideoGame/TechRomancer'', ''Side Arms: Hyper Dyne'', and Devilotte's own game ''Cyberbots'').
* '''AxCrazy''': She rivals ''Juri'' on this!
* BadAssBoast:
-->"''I am the queen of cruelty and exploitation, born from the flames of hell!''"
* CardCarryingVillain: It's in the name.
* ClothingDamage: HilarityEnsues everytime she gets hit with the Blodia Punch.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: PlayedForLaughs. This is a girl who routinely spouts all sorts of nastiness, threatens to create {{Humanoid Abomination}}s out of her own teammates (even as ''rewards''), but when Due Flabellum [[spoiler:raids Mii's manor and helps herself to her gourmet flan]], she ''takes personal exception'' to Due's actions.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gra0jFfvW0E Super 8 Theme]]"
* OhCrap: Every single time she summons Blodia only to forget she's in its way. You'd think she'd learn already after ''every single time''.
** Or Blodia just [[AIIsACrapShoot conveniently aims in her general direction every single time]].
** If Ryu and Ken are on Support to the group she's in, after threatening the enemy with a punch from Blodia, Ken will tell her not to get carried away or it will just backfire on her.
* OverlyLongName: Estelle (who also has a very long name) didn't even catch it the first time Flynn introduced her. And if you pair her up with Dante and Demitri, the latter complains that it's too long and requests that she repeat all that.
* RoyalBrat: Wants to be addressed by her full title and name.
* SlasherSmile: Her facial expression usually fluctuates between a smug smile or a bloodthirsty grin.
* SweetTooth: And she gets her chops busted for having her daily candy allowance reduced to ¥300[[hottip:*:about US$3.00]]
* TokenEvilTeammate: Being the self-proclaimed "princess of evil".
* UselessUsefulSpell: One of her support skills, the "Skull Button", is either capable of giving the unit she's paired with +10% to ''all parameters'', double the speed, or giving a 100% cross point gauge ''to enemies''. Better start praying the RandomNumberGod is on your side.
* YearsTooEarly: One of her victory quotes has her proclaim that her enemy is 1 million years and 4 months too early.

!! [[VideoGame/GhostsNGoblins Arthur]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/TetsuInada (Japanese)
----
* ArmorIsUseless: Oh ''[[NoOneCouldSurviveThat so subverted in the most awesome way ever]]''.
* ClothingDamage: Whenever he finishes his support attack.
* DemotedToExtra: Went from [[VideoGame/NamcoXCapcom fully playable]] to just a support unit.
* DisneyDeath: Apparently dies when a bomb explodes with him at point-blank range. Nope, he returns at the very beginning of the following chapter and proudly proclaims that his armor can protect him from any damage, but only once.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: When paired up with Reiji and Xiaomu, he is excited to get up close and personal with the enemy. Xiaomu gets perturbed (or slightly excited), because he said this when he was ''in his boxers''.
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Arthur has a certain reputation among retro gamers for being a pathetically weak protagonist due to his armour shattering on impact with enemies in his home series, but this game shows how awesome it actually is to have armour that gives you a do-over from ''any'' attack, no matter how powerful. It also counts as GameplayAndStoryIntegration.
* InterfaceSpoiler: You'll find out right away that he survived his HeroicSacrifice thanks to the interface telling you to readjust your solo supports due to the party being split and him still being one of the available supports.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T90n4KqCs2s 1st BGM]]" from the original ''VideoGame/GhostsNGoblins''.
* LivingLegend: He is treated as one by other monster-slaying characters in the game, who all look up to him for his daring exploits to the demon realm.
* KnightInShiningArmor: At least until it falls apart.
* NakedPeopleAreFunny: His near-nudity is often milked for laughs in the first game. Also finishes his assist move with an explosion so powerful it destroys his armor.
* OneHitPointWonder: Arthur's armor, as usual, breaks and leaves him unharmed in his underwear from practically any impact. [[NoOneCouldSurviveThat Regardless of how big an impact.]]
* {{Retirony}}: Lampshaded mercilessly by Riela. He survives with no problems.
* RunningGag: Him in his boxers on his pre/post dialogue counts with a lot of units lampshading it.

* MixAndMatchWeapon: Her weapon includes a {{BFS}} and a {{BFG}} taped together.
* NamedWeapons: Her BifurcatedWeapon is called Var.
* PutOnABus: She's absent in the sequel.
* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: [[LeeroyJenkins Not to the levels she pulls off in her home game]], however she still does hate Selvaria. Something that other characters note that she really should get out of.
* WalkingArmory: There's her main weapon, then there's the ammo strapped to her, then there are the grenades, and then there's her clothes that look really heavy on her. Justified as she was still participating at a war when she got caught up in the mess.
* YouAreNumberSix: Ace is her codename in the Nameless.

* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Her memory was altered to hunt down Jin along with Heihachi until she was defeated in battle.
* ChainsawGood: Can turn her arms into one.
* HyperspaceArsenal: Where does she get her replacement heads? Riela also wonders where Alisa's brain is in their post battle conversation.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Tekken Tag Tournament -Piano Intro- Massive Mix"
* LosingYourHead: ''All the time''.
* MadeOfExplodium: Her ''head'' explodes.
* MesACrowd: Toward the end of the game you will fight several copies of all of the Solo Units who were ever enemies.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted. Averted. She and Alisa Ilinichina Amiella have the same name. Alisa Bosconovitch is worried that the two having the same name may confuse Soma, who responds that one way to tell the difference between them is that one of them can blow up their head. The Alisa he knows retorts that there are better ways to tell them apart.
* RidiculouslyHumanRobots: Gets kinda interesting if you assign her to KOS-MOS & T-elos.
* RocketPunch: How she ends her support attack.
* RunningGag: She'll be holding her head in her hands while talking. A lot.

----
* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: See the quote below.
* BadassNormal: Is only a cop yet can keep up just fine with the other characters.
* ButtMonkey: Poor guy's aquired over ''fourteen'' '''''billion''''' ''dollars'' in property damage. Lampshaded in this Pre-Battle quote with Chun-Li and Morrigan.
--> '''Morrigan''': Hmm, I never knew human detectives could be so interesting...
-->'''Bruno''': I get beat, shot, sent flying by explosions, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and the pay is lousy too.]]
-->'''Chun-Li''': [[SarcasmMode Don't try to make it out like you're an average detective.]]
** Lets not forget chapter 22 where he managed to piss off a whole pack of Aragami.
* CallBack: His outfit is from the first ''Die Hard Arcade'' (Japanese version only) and yet his stage and storyline is from ''Dynamite Cop 2''. [[note]](would have been Die Hard Arcade 2 except Sega lost rights to the name)[[/note]]
* CaptainErsatz: Of [[Franchise/DieHard John McClane]] obviously.
* ClothingDamage: Put a ''little'' too much explosives into the grandfather clock.
* DestructiveSavior: He's called "Mr. Dynamite" because he's racked up over fourteen billion dollars in property damage.
* IAmNotShazam: InUniverse. Bruno doesn't like it when Chun-Li calls him "Mr. Dynamite" when they first meet.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: As usual, he still has his handgun coupled with his shooting style in his game but also has a mop, a VideoGame/GoldenAxe, ''pepper'' and lastly the grandfather clock.
--> '''Bruno''': [[LampshadeHanging I use whatever I've got!]]

* RedBaron: The "Dynamite Cop"
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Although never shown in-game, he does know the giant swing when he's asked by Akira.

!! [[VideoGame/SpaceChannel5 Ulala]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Herself (Japanese)
----
* AsHerself: Her voice actress is referred to as this. Who it actually refers to is a SEGA employee who not only voices Ulala, but also did all the motion capture for Ulala's dancing in her series. Hence, she is voicing 'herself'.
* AssistCharacter:
** Summons [[RobotBuddy Scooter]], [[SapientShip Opa-Opa]], and the [[NoNameGiven Space Harrier]] (from the games ''VideoGame/AlienStorm'', ''VideoGame/FantasyZone'', and ''VideoGame/SpaceHarrier''). Four characters for the price of one!
** In the sequel, Opa-Opa stays, but she has two new assists that come along as replacements for the others...''VideoGame/AlexKidd'' and the Roman Centurion (in Werewolf form) from ''VideoGame/AlteredBeast1988''.
* CallingYourAttacks: In addition to her own Tension Blaster, she also exclaims her assist characters' moves to direct them.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: If things get dire, Ulala will enthusiastically declare that it should boost her ratings and happily urge the viewers to [[CatchPhrase stay tuned]] to see how things turn out. Compare to her original self, who was still commited to her reporting duties, but still showed concern or fear if the situation called for it.
* DanceBattler: Conflict in her world is resolved through dance, and she does the same here.
%%* GirlishPigtails
* GoingForTheBigScoop: Even says this when she first joins.
* GratuitousEnglish: Quite a bit, just like in her game.
%%* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: Ulala
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Finishes her attack in the second game by sending out a shockwave from her guitar. Her blaster is also this to a certain degree, as it is a gun that only fires if the holder is dancing and shouts "chu".
* InnocentlyInsensitive: In her battle intro with Jin, she asks him if he has anything to say to [[BigScrewedUpFamily his family.]] Xiaoyu hastily tells her to switch topics.
* LackOfEmpathy: Late into the first game, a few characters start expressing regret for killing the Morolians after it's discovered the aliens had been brainwashed. Ulala's response basically amounts to "Meh, I'm sure they are fine with it".
* LargeHam: With her passion for reporting, this is a given.
* {{Leitmotif}}:
** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YiHzGZl3yM Mexican Flyer]]" (in the Japanese version of both games)
** "[[http://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=relmfu&v=UoVdM4cFVjI Coco Tapioca The Huge Dancer]]" in the Western release of the first game, as it seems Namco couldn't secure the rights to the original song outside of Japan.
* MagicDance: Capable of directing attacks from her assists with this. Fitting since her game is about leading an entourage.
* MusicalAssassin: In the sequel, Ulala ends her support attack by jamming on her electric guitar, sending out soundwave hits.
* NitroBoost: Also has a skill that casts a +2 Square Movement to all ally units. The downside to hers compared to Ichiro and Flynn's is that her skill is a Passive Skill and requires 120% on the XP Gauge when it's the turn of the unit she's assigned to in order to take effect.
* ParentalAbandonment: At the age of 12, she was rescued from a spaceship accident which killed not only everyone aside from her onboard, but also her parents.
* SpaceX: In a nod from her game, if you pair her up with Frank and Lei-Lei/Hsien-Ko, they'll refer to themselves as a space reporter, a space journalist, and a space jiang-shi respectively.
* TagalongReporter: She pretty much decides to join the group because they have celebrities from her world amongst them such as X and Devilotte. Though, she pulls her weight a bit more than other examples of this trope.
* TookALevelInDumbass: She acts more naive and less sassy than in her original series.
%%* TooQuirkyToLose: Holy '''hell''' is she ever.

* BigBad: Returns to [[VideoGame/NamcoXCapcom her former role]] in ''Project X Zone 2''.
* BodyBackupDrive: [[spoiler: It was never implied how she actually got BackFromTheDead in ''VideoGame/EndlessFrontier'' until after finally defeating her in ''Brave New World'', she reveals that "the body she's using is no good either."]]
%%* TheCoatsAreOff
* CoDragons: She and Sheath serve this role to [[spoiler:Byaku Shin]].
%%* CoolBigSis: ''Very'' rarely though.
* DepravedBisexual: On the straight side, she invites Chun-Li and Morrigan to "drive the boys wild," and she calls Toma cute. On the gay side, she encourages Gemini when the latter mentions that someone said she should massage her chest if stressed.
* DualWielding: Her final attack in her support skill.
* EnemyMine: BigBad in ''VideoGame/NamcoXCapcom'', someone who has a beef with the main villain in this game.
* EvilCounterpart: Is a werefox like Xiaomu, but leads an organization dedicated to spreading chaos across dimensions.
* FarEastAsianTerrorists: Is the leader of the Asian branch of Ouma.
* FireIceLightning: Her swords have all three.
* FiringOneHanded: How she fires her [[ShotgunsAreJustBetter Edge.]]
* ILied: In ''VideoGame/EndlessFrontier EXCEED'', she tells the EXCEED party that she will not be building robots to menace the different universes. [[spoiler: She and Ouma have been collecting the bottom half of Kyuju Kyu throughout ''Brave New World'' and developing the 101 Embryo Project]].
* JokerImmunity: [[spoiler: No matter how many times Reiji kills her, she always seems to come back.]]
* KissOfDeath: How she starts off her support attack.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Brave New World". During cutscenes, she also gets "Locus to Certain Victory", which is lampshaded by Xiaomu. Both themes are shared with her fellow Namco X Capcom characters.
* MesACrowd: The Katana, Akatana, and Byakuya X enemies are all clones of her. Additionally, toward the end of the game you will fight several copies of all of the Solo Units who were ever enemies.
* NebulousEvilOrganisation: She works for Ouma.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: Is the oldest party member at 1,000 years old.
* StatusEffects: Can inflict poison on enemies.
* TheTease: Especially towards Reiji.
* TokenEvilTeammate: In the first game before becoming the BigBad in the second game.

!! [[VideoGame/StreetFighterIV Juri Han]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/EriKitamura (Japanese)
----
* AdaptationalVillainy: Juri is a psychopathic murderer, yet her one main goal in her home series is taking down a far bigger evil, the terrorist organization Shadaloo. This would prompt her to eventually [[EnemyMine join forces]] with the likes of Ryu, Ken and Chun-Li, whom she comes to view as {{Worthy Opponent}}s. In ''Project X Zone 2'', Juri instead ''joins Shadaloo'', gleefully wreaks havoc in multiple worlds ForTheEvulz and treats her fellow Street Fighters [[TookALevelInJerkass with no respect]].
* AxCrazy: She is the most unstable and violent character in the entire party, even giving her original portrayal in the ''Street Fighter'' series a run for her money. Many of the other heroes express how afraid they are of her, with Zero even labeling her as a Maverick[[note]] A term used in the ''VideoGame/MegaManX'' series to designate entities who are considered active threats to the safety of human beings and robots alike[[/note]].
* ElectronicEyes: Juri lost one of her eyes when she was a child. It was replaced by the [[{{Magitek}} Feng Shui Engine]], which bestows her with superhuman skills and shines with a pink hue when she uses her ki attacks.
* EnemyMine: Really hates Seth so much that she'd join the heroes just to get to beat him up. Then again, the other option was getting beat up along with him...
* ForTheEvulz: When questioned about Bison's plan in the sequel, Juri replies she has no idea what he is up to, and remarks she is only attacking other worlds because she does "what she wants when she wants it".
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: It's clear from the pre-battle dialogues that absolutely ''nobody'' likes having her around. In the sequel, she is the only former TokenEvilTeammate who is never offered any degree of sympathy. Chun-Li openly invites T-elos to join the team, and many heroes are surprised or even saddened to find out that Saya is the BigBad this time around, while Juri is always treated with utter disdain.
* KarmaHoudini: In the first game, the party lets her leave after she assists them in defeating Oros Phlox. After her final defeat in the second game, she manages to escape, but not before gloating to the party one final time.
* KickChick: As Juri is a Taekwondo practitioner, her fighting style mainly employs kicks as a means of offense.
** She uses the Kaisen Dankairaku as her Assist Move and as her main attack as a Rival Unit. Juri kicks the opponent high into the air by spinning her leg like a propeller. At the height of the jump, she axe kicks them downwards, then quickly teleports to the ground to catch them with an upward kick to their spine. The move ends with the victim being slammed head-first into the ground with another axe kick.
** Her Multi Attack is the Senpusha, in which Juri spins in the air to deliver a series of upward kicks to her opponents.
* {{Leitmotif}}: "Volcanic Rim", which is shared with the other Street Fighter characters.
* MesACrowd: Toward the end of the game you will fight several copies of all of the Units who were ever enemies.
* OnlySaneMan: Surprisingly, she fills this role when paired up with Saya and Aya-Me in the sequel. During the courtroom showdown that parodizes the ''Franchise/AceAttorney'' series, Sylphie's statements trigger a chain of gasps that concludes with the two villainesses following suit. An annoyed Juri then tells them to cut it out, since they are not part of the procedure and don't have to play along with it.
* OutOfCharacterMoment: Even though she is clearly not happy about it, Juri still works for Shadaloo in the sequel. While ''Videogame/StreetFighterIV'' and ''Videogame/StreetFighterXTekken'' have shown that approaching her foes just so she can [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder stab them in the back]] is one of her favored strategies, her intentions in this game are never made clear, as she [[WhatHappenedToTheMouse vanishes from the plot]] after being defeated in [[Videogame/FireEmblemAwakening Ylisse]].
* SirSwearsALot: She curses more than anybody else in the game, swearing at least once in ''every'' chapter. To put it in perspective, think of Gantz from VideoGame/NamcoXCapcom, only up to eleven.
* SlasherSmile: Her default facial expression is a sadistic grin, which gets exaggerated into a psychotic smirk during her assist portraits.
* SpoilerOpening: Given Juri's sadism and unwillingness to cooperate, her joining the party would be a surprising twist, but the fact that she is clearly shown fighting alongside the protagonists in the opening ruined the surprise.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork:
** She joins the heroes in the first game after being betrayed by Seth. Pre-battle dialogue still makes it clear that she is not happy about working with the good guys, though.
** She works for Bison in the second game for unknown reasons. Both despise each other, with Juri plainly telling him to go to Hell after he issues her an order.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Juri only joins the heroes so she could get revenge on Seth, nothing more. She goes back to being a villain in the sequel.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Juri is mostly in-character in the first game, but she is [[{{Flanderization}} flanderized]] in the sequel, where her (very few) redeeming qualities are thrown out of the window in favor of making her a full-blown sociopath.
* WouldntHurtAChild: Unlike her original self, this gets averted. The Project X Zone version of Juri has no qualms beating down opponents who are younger or less skilled than her, even attempting to murder [[VideoGame/{{Shenmue}} Ryo Hazuki]].

* DubNameChange: From Zabel Zarock.
* MusicalAssassin: His guitar is sharp enough to stab people.
* OhCrap: In the sequel, Raptor tricks the heroes into rescuing him in the Fetus of God stage then openly mocks them for believing he had vital information for them if he were dug out before making statements of his own agendas. Unfortunately, Raptor failed to figure out that he was horribly outnumbered by an army of [[OneManArmy one-man armies ]] who were more than annoyed with his deception.
-->'''Majima:''' You don't jerk yakuza around. Didn't your mom teach you that?
-->'''Kazuya:''' Fool. I'll break you like a twig.

* OurZombiesAreDifferent: Lord Raptor is a blue zombie modeled after a rock star. He has a long tongue, luscious hair and a [[LargeHam comedic and bombastic personality]]. Chris and Jill note that Raptor looks nothing like the T-Virus zombies or any actual undeads from fantasy.
* ShockAndAwe: Electrocutes his foes in his LimitBreak.
* StalkerWithACrush: He has a one-sided crush on Hsien-Ko, who is annoyed by him constantly trying to impress her.
* YourHeadAsplode: {{Inverted}} when he tries to absorb Jedah's power and grows big, but explodes and his head is all that is left. This also leads to his NiceJobFixingItVillain moment as that is what saves the party. In the sequel, he didn't learn his lesson and tries to absorb power from the Psycho Drive, but explodes again.

* LadyOfWar: Is a general, and one of the most fearsome bosses in the game.
* MistakenForGay: The party thinks that she is allied to Riemsianne because the latter brainwashed her with a kiss. This turns out to not be the case, as Selvaria confirms that she was promised to be returned to her world in exchange for her serices.
* PerpetualFrowner: Lampshaded by [[TheNicknamer Haken]] as the "frowny girl".
* PowerGlows: Selvaria is enveloped by a shiny blue aura when she uses her [[SuperMode Valkyria]] powers.
* WaveMotionGun: Her valkyrian lance can fire a powerful stream of blue energy that sweeps across the battlefield and damages multiple foes.

----
* BackFromTheDead: Ichiro and Sakura are surprised to see her return, given that she died early on in their own series.
* {{Dominatrix}}: She is modeled after a stereotypical dominatrix, given her revealing outfit and predilection for whip attacks.
* FightingFromTheInside: In the sequel, more of Aya-me's old self comes through and tries to set back Ouma's plans however she can. However, the corruption is too strong and forces her to fight the heroes.
* SummonMagic: Her Multi Attack involves her summoning several Kouma to blast you.
* ThatManIsDead: Whenever anyone calls her by her whole name she has to remind them that she is no longer the heroine she used to be.
* WhipOfDominance: Fittingly for her [[DressedLikeADominatrix dominatrix appearance]] and motif, her physical attacks all employ a whip.

%%* BaldOfEvil
* DisneyVillainDeath: Falls off the platforms of the [[VideoGame/DevilMayCry3DantesAwakening Lost Souls Nirvana]] in Chapter 38.
* FullFrontalAssault: He is shown wearing clothes in his home series, yet fights completely naked.
* IronicNickname: In Chapter 38, he is referred to as the [[TheChessmaster Lord of Puppets]] in the title and as the Puppet King by Haken. Given his backstory in ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIV'', this is actually an insult, since despite his pompous demeanour, he is nothing more than M. Bison's spare body.
* ObviouslyEvil: He briefly tricks KOS-MOS into trusting him, which Ken promptly lampshades as a [[HorribleJudgeOfCharacter very poor judgement of character.]]
* PowerCopying: Like in his game, he wants to mimic the fighting style of his opponents, expressing particular interest on KOS-MOS.

!! [[VideoGame/ResidentEvil3Nemesis Nemesis]]
----
* {{BFG}}: Still carries his signature bazooka from ''Resident Evil 3''.
* BrickJoke: In the first game, Chris and Jill express annoyance that Nemesis can't say anything other than "S.T.A.R.S.", since they no longer belong to said organization and are now working for the B.S.A.A. The monster surprisingly understands this and utters "B.S.A.A." in response. In the second game, Nemesis returns, and his only line of dialogue is "B.S.A.A."
* HellBentForLeather: Nemesis wears a torn leather jacket toset him apart from other undead enemies and highlight him as the most powerful among them.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: His single-target special attack involves thrusting a stake through the victim's face.
* ItCanThink: Changes his CatchPhrase from S.T.A.R.S. to B.S.A.A., indicating that it's gone beyond its "programmed" stalking straight into personal hatred.

* BreathWeapon: The mouth in his belly can breathe flames to incinerate his foes.
* DualBoss: He comes in pairs when you fight off against him the second time and onward, referencing the need to complete ''VideoGame/GhostsNGoblins'' twice in order to obtain the good ending.
%%* LargeAndInCharge: Of the Infernal Village.
* MightyGlacier: The first pair you take down will suddenly have an increased defense stat under the ten thousands, prolonging his survival.
* PlayingWithFire: Both his special attacks involve blasting the party with his fire breath.

!! [[VideoGame/SpaceChannel5 Coco]] ★ [[VideoGame/SpaceChannel5 Tapioca]]
----
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: The Morolians as a whole are largely benevolent, but they turn aggressive after being brainwasged by Riemsianne in the first game, then Bison in the sequel.
* ButtMonkey: Is mocked quite relentlessy by the party for being brainwashed ''again'' in the second game.
* DanceBattler: Much like in its home series, its attack consists of a dance where it flails its arms wildly at the opponent. Its Multi Attack also summons Sub-Morolians that attack by performing a can-can dance.
* NotQuiteDead: Explodes in the first game, but is back in the sequel without as much of a scratch. Though being a robot, the Morolians have simply rebuilt it.
* TheUnintelligible: Speaks Morolian, which is never translated in these games.
* WaveMotionGun: Finishes its super move by firing a huge laser from its mouth.

!! [[VideoGame/DotHackR1Games Skeith]]
----
* DualBoss: There's ''three'' of him in one stage.
* TheVoiceless: His entire dialogue consists of "...".

!! [[VideoGame/GodEater Vajra]]
----
* AdaptationalWimp: Aragami explicitly can only be put down by a God Arc in their game. Here anything is equally capable of killing them.
* PantheraAwesome: Vajra has the body of a gigantic panther, but a vaguely humanoid face.
* ShockAndAwe: That cape on its back is actually an organ that unleashes electric storms.
* TheWormThatWalks: Aragami are actually agglomerations of Oracle Cells.

!! [[VideoGame/MegaManX Vile]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/HiroshiShimozaki (Japanese)
----
* AxCrazy: His vicious desire to destroy X is what ultimately brings him back to life. It gets even worse in the second game, where it compels him to resurrect Sigma.
* BackFromTheDead: X notes that he was already dead (as the game takes place during the continuity of ''X4'' and Vile was destroyed in ''X3''). He is also resurrected in ''2'' as Vile Mk. 2.
* DubNameChange: From VAVA.
* EnemyMine: He [[BackFromTheDead brought Sigma back in 2]] because he knows X and Zero hate him more than he does.
* TheFarmerAndTheViper: Sylphie repairs his Goliath Ride Armor and transports him and a couple of Sigma's Maverick minions to the Tower of Tarqaron since he's one of her best customers. Vile repays her kindness by using the energy from her store, along with [[spoiler:Byaku Shin's]] gold chains and AIDA to revive Sigma.
* GreenEyedMonster: Wants to kill X and prove himself more fitting to "change the world", [[CallBack harkening back to his goal in Maverick Hunter X's Vile Mode]].
%%ZCE* LaughingMad: When he first appears in Chapter 20.
%%ZCE* MadBomber: His Splash Hit in the first game, as well as using Bang Away Bomb during his Flames of Revenge Multi Attack in the sequel.
* ManipulativeBastard: He manipulates Sylphie, Ouma, AIDA, and the heroes to get back a rebuilt Goliath Ride Armor and revive Sigma in "Summation of Malice".
* MiniMecha: Vile rides his Ride Armor in the first game and his Goliath in the sequel. Both machines must be destroyed before Vile himself can be damaged.
* PlayingWithFire: In ''2''.
** His shoulder cannon holds a flamethrower, which he uses at the end of his Special Attack to burn his opponent.
** His [=MAP=] attack ends with him dropping an incendiary bomb above his targets, which produce smaller flames before generating a massive explosion.
* SequentialBoss: Once he gets his Ride Armor, every time you fight him you'll have to kill him twice. Once to get him out of the Ride Armor, [[TheComputerIsACheatingBastard which immediately sets it to his turn even if he had already had his]], and then Vile himself.
* ShoulderCannon: Vile has a WaveMotionGun in his shoulder, which he uses to fire a massive blast during his [[LimitBreak Rising Specter]].
* ThePowerOfHate: His hatred for X was so strong it drew the Feydoom to him even in death, allowing him to resurrect. His hatred brings him back again in ''2''.

!! [[VideoGame/NamcoXCapcom Dokumezu]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Yoichi Nishijima (Japanese)
----
* BatterUp: Wields a giant oni club.
* BreathWeapon: Exhales a poisonous cloud during his LimitBreak.
* RedOniBlueOni: Inverted. Dokumezu is red-skinned but is more professional than his lecherous, hot-headed partner. This gets noted in Project X Zone 2 when they're dealing with Ciseaux.
-->'''Dokugozu''': Man, when did you become the smart one, Dokumezu?
-->'''Dokumezu''': I didn't. I'm just not as dumb as you. If I were, we'd never get ANYWHERE.
* ThoseTwoGuys: He always appears alongside Dokugozu.

!! [[VideoGame/NamcoXCapcom Dokugozu]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Toru Nara (Japanese)
----
* AbhorrentAdmirer: Still has a crush on [[VideoGame/EndlessFrontier Kaguya]], but has since desired any bride of a marriage-a-bull age in the sequel. Justified since Kaguya is not present in [[PutOnABus Project X Zone 2]].
* BreathWeapon: A poisonous breath, much like Dokumezu.
%%* RedOniBlueOni: See above.
* TheUnfavorite: Implied. When you beat Dokumezu in Chapter 31 of the first Project X Zone, Saya says he always had a cute personality. When you beat Dokugozu, she talks about lightening his punishment instead.
%%* ThoseTwoGuys: With Dokumezu.

!! [[OriginalGeneration Eins Belanos]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ToshioFurukawa (Japanese)
----
* BlowYouAway: Wields a bellow that sucks his opponents up and spits them away.
* BoxingBattler: His fighting style resembles boxing, but his constant chainsmoking hinders his stamina.
* CombatPragmatist: Wears a pair of spiked knuckle-dusters to sharpen his punches.
* CoolShades: Wears a pair 24/7.
* LeanAndMean: Rake thin and a villainous enforcer.
* SiblingTeam: He and Drei make up the Belanos Brothers.
* SmokingIsCool: [[AvertedTrope Not really.]] Eins complains after running up a flight of stairs after the party, so Xiaoyu suggests that he quit smoking. He also visibly tires himself out from punching his opponent in his solo attack animation. He reveals that he's tried quitting, but couldn't quite gather the willpower to go through with it.
* ThemeNaming: No. 1 in German.
* ThoseTwoGuys: With his brother Drei. Becomes an archetypal TerribleTrio when they are joined by Due.

!! [[OriginalGeneration Drei Belanos]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Kazuya Tatekabe (Japanese)
----
* {{Acrofatic}}: He's pretty limb for a big guy. He can even do a WallJump in thin air, somehow.
* {{BFS}}: Strong enough to wield a giant sword.
* FatBastard: Very fat and serves Due's will, but he's a bit calmer and more good-humoured than his brother Eins.
* SiblingTeam: He and Eins make up the Belanos Brothers.
* ThemeNaming: No. 3 in German. Wait, what happened to No. 2? Well...
* ThoseTwoGuys: He and Eins are another set in the ''X'' series, following the example of Dokugozu and Dokumezu.

!! [[OriginalGeneration Due Flabellum]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Music/MegumiHayashibara (Japanese)
----
* BlowYouAway: Attacks with blasts of wind from her CombatHandFan.
* DragonInChief: The [[TheManBehindTheMan true]] BigBad of the game is Meden. Due does most of the plot and you don't face off against Meden until the end of the game, although you do see Meden appear in the cinematic intro.
* FelonyMisdemeanor: Of all the things Due does, it's not until she [[spoiler:[[EnemyEatsYourLunch eats Mii's flan]]]] that some of the characters, especially Mii herself, treat her as anything more than an annoyance. After that, ItsPersonal.
* PaperFanOfDoom: Or whatever she's whacking you with.
* ThemeNaming: Arguably No. 2... in ''French''! (deux)

!! [[OriginalGeneration Meden Traore]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/HochuOtsuka
----
* BackgroundMusicOverride: His Leitmotif gets overridden with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FjLBSvtG0Ko Mysterious Project SP. Version]] when his HP is at 1/4 of his original HP.
* BigBad: He is the FinalBoss of the first game and responsible for everything that goes wrong, as his desire to merge all worlds causes a multiversal crisis.
* ChestBlaster: One of his most powerful attacks is a colossal energy beam fired from his chest.
* EarlyBirdCameo: His full body and a close up of his face are featured prominently in [[SpoilerOpening the opening]].
* FlamingHair: His humanoid form has an impressive mane of glowing green hair.
%%* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe
* InTheirOwnImage: Like many crossover villains, his goal is to erase all other universes and recreate a singular one in his own design.
* {{Leitmotif}}: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fju2wJnwbB4 Wing Wanderer -orchestral version-]]
* TheManBehindTheMan: As the one truly responsible for the events of the game, he serves this role to Due, who works as his emissary for most of the story.
%%* MultiArmedAndDangerous
* OneWingedAngel: Upon fully merging with the Portalstone, he transforms from a humanoid shape into the giant crystalline monster that we see in the opening.
* StationaryBoss: He won't move from his position. Sadly, he's also in ''the best position'' (for him) because you can't hit him unless you are at least two squares away ''in front of him'' (three if you have a unit who can attack from three squares or more).
* SNKBoss: Meden is much more powerful than any other enemy in the game due to his massive HP, absurd defenses and overpowered Multi Attack (which covers the entire field, is strong enough to instantly kill up to four units, and can be used when his Special Gauge is at 50% or higher).
* VisionaryVillain: A standard "remake reality in his own image" kind of villain suitable for any crossover game.
* WalkingSpoiler: He doesn't make his existence known until very late in the game.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: His goal was to combine worlds to create a better place to live than the worlds were alone. But as Juri [[SirSwearsALot (rudely)]] summarises, the major caveat is that he wishes to fill his new world with soulless, obedient replicas of the unmixed worlds' original inhabitants.

!! [[VideoGame/DotHackR1Games Aura]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/MaayaSakamoto (Japanese)
----
* BigGood: Shares this role with Mii in the first game.
* DeusEstMachina
* MacGuffinDeliveryService: Inverted; Skeith has one of her fragments, so the heroes and Ciseaux are chasing after Skeith.
* RescueArc: A few stages will involve needing a certain party member (usually Kite and Blackrose) to go to her location.

!! [[VideoGame/MegaManX4 Iris]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YukoMizutani (Japanese)
----
* BackFromTheDead: Brought back to life to be used as torment against her and Zero's will. She eventually [[BackForTheDead returns back to the afterlife]].

!! [[VideoGame/EndlessFrontier Gespenst Phantom]]
----
* AIIsACrapshoot: Something happened as to why Phantom keeps attacking Haken and Kaguya in the early parts of the game. Noted to be Skeith's fault at least.
* {{BFS}}: The Grand Plasma Cutter.
* ChestBlaster: It has one, but it just never uses it for some reason. Probably because Haken's already covering the WaveMotionGun part.
* DemotedToExtra: After joining, it only appears in Haken and Kaguya's MAP attack.
* DivingKick: Kicks up to four targets with a well placed Gespenst Kick.
* FuumaShuriken: Grand Slash Ripper
%%* KillerRobot: As an enemy at least.
* MiniMecha: literally a miniaturized version of a HumongousMecha.
%%* ThemeMusicPowerUp: Though when it does appear...
* WorthyOpponent: When Sanger meets the Phantom for the first time in chapter 27, he calls it this trope. As an AcePilot who's logged a lot of time with the Phantom's big brothers, he knows his stuff.
