A fictional FightingGame by @/{{Wax}}.\\
In a futuristic world, a well-known fighting tournament organizer named Ringoto Teisou is working on a secret but undoubtedly sinister project. He is rumored to be in the first stage, collectively called [[OperationBlank "Operation]] [[TitleDrop G"]]. Its content and goals are unknown to all but his four head executives and Ringoto himself. In front of that persistent veil, several parties and private groups side against the project.\\
Several tournaments are organized, and teams form to either protect or cancel Operation G before it concludes.\\
It is divided in 10 story arcs, after the introduction:
* Ground Zero Tour: Niki organizes a tournament in Ground Zero, a huge tower. The tournament is a cover-up to lure the enemies to Operation G and bring them all down in one shot. This arc introduces Team Ougoku and Team Mugen.
* Mystery East Tour: A solo female-only tournament. It's organized by Miki who orchestrated a trap for Houka to fall in so she could kidnap her off of the rest of her team.
* Vector 41-009 Arc: Tang is on a mission to bait the anti-Operation G teams, organizing a tournament in a former Operation G study lab. This arc introduces Team Konryuu and Team Ranken.
* High Point Tour: Tatsuya organizes a solo tournament with a very small selection of contestants. This arc introduces Team Kokujin and Team Jundou, who make up most of the entrants in this tournament.
* Red Leaf Tour: Akina and the Reitou ninja clan organize this tournament under an official guise. This arc introduces Team Kouei.
* Nameless Tournament: Natsuki uses a luxurious locale to organize a tournament. People are suspicious, but unaware of what tests she's running in this tournament.
* True Ground Zero Tour: Hakkou lands a space station on Earth and organizes a tournament aboard.
* Silverwing Tour: Ginshi organizes a tournament aboard her huge flying aircraft. This arc introduces Team Magou.
* Operation O: [[spoiler:Eiko is alive, Operation G is a success. The anti-Operation G teams grow desperate, as Ringoto immediately cuts ties with his executives. Everyone starts searching for him.]]
* [[spoiler:Stream Arc: Ringoto heads for the Stream, where a long battle unfolds.]]

----
!Operation G contains examples of:
* ActionGirl: Each team has one. They can also be pitted against the guys in tournaments, so the action part is frequently tested.
* AlasPoorVillain: [[spoiler:Many, when everyone starts dying in droves and most of the {{anti villain}}s (many of them gone into Type IV by that point) die.]]
* AnAesop: [[spoiler:Ringoto is a walking aesop about how self-centeredness is bad, as he only goes crazy because he let his ambition go before everything else.]]
%%* BadassCrew: Just about any team.
* BadassFamily / BigScrewedUpFamily: Many of them.
** The Teisou family, despite originating in Japan, has now extended to the whole world. The main characters belonging to this family are almost all European: Ringoto is German, Setsuna is French, Torou is Brazilian, and Kintou is Spanish.
** The Kokuu brothers count as the family is entirely screwed up, but the three are badass.
** The Seichi count too, aside from Hakkou's isolation from his family's lifestyle. Of course, his nephews being on the Operation G side make them a screwed-up family.
** Not really family, but the orphanage Akina works in has gathered many characters together. Houka, Tenko, Izumi and Haruka all live (or lived just before Operation G started) there; not to mention the visits of Tang, Niki and Miki (who in fact is the one funding it).
** Subverted with Rigan and Tae-yeong, who are brothers but [[LongLostRelative don't really knowing each other]] due to having been separated for the better part of 10 years.
** The Mashima are definitely screwed up, by virtue of Tatsuya being married to Natsuki.
* BalanceSpeedStrengthTrio: Team Mugen has Karyu as the Balance, Tenko as the Speed and Shiro as the Strength. Similarly, Team Konryuu has Setsuna as the Balance, Gilberto as the Speed, and Seino as the Strength. Team Magou also follows this with Kintou as the Balance, Lucille as the Speed, and Tsuyoshi [[MeaningfulName (somewhat obviously)]] as the Strength.
** Downplayed by Team Ougoku: while all three members are strength-based, there is still a distinction between the members, with Koukyu as the relatively-balanced, Houka as the faster of the three, and Kuuki's giant size making him extra committed to Strength.
* BlessedWithSuck:
** Fuushi and Kiyoshi suffer from a magical genetic alteration, commonly called ''Demon Brand''. While it makes them naturally strong, it also gives them a OneWingedAngel SuperpoweredEvilSide that can be triggered consciously, but usually is used unconsciously due to [[EmotionalPowers excess of negative emotion]]. It also tends to trigger on its own when darkness magic is used. It also gives a HealingFactor, though it is mitigated by the PainfulTransformation coming beforehand. [[spoiler:Natsuki also has that same disease.]]
** Setsuna, Kiyoshi, and Akemi suffer from a strange phenomenon called ''Soul of the Beast'' [[spoiler:(''Soul of Mashin'' once it's figured out who's responsible)]] that causes them [[ImHavingSoulPains soul pains]] routinely, and can overcome their will to replace it with that of a [[AxCrazy murderous beast]] in UnstoppableRage. [[spoiler:The three members of Team Kokujin, Ringoto, and Mashin]] all can cause the afflicted to go crazy. [[spoiler:It's actually parts of Mashin's soul tainting the afflicted, and a key part of his plan to become God.]]
*** Kuuki, Aoshi, and Haruka can enter the same state, but since they have control over the transformation, it's a milder case — their lack of power to choose when to stop being AxCrazy counts.
*** Ginshi has a power that resembles it, but has few of the drawbacks: the power she gained from Ringoto causes her pain upon use, though.
** Seino and Tsuyoshi both have ''Blood Ki'', a dark energy that enhances their strength and ki power, but hampers mental development and thinking ability. The afflicted often turn into a BloodKnight. It also make them able to sense other lifeforms with it. Tsuyoshi fully accepts it while Seino struggles against it. The effect of ''Blood Ki'' can be counteracted by ''Empty Ki'', which is possessed by Hakkou. Karyu also has it, unwittingly so.
* BossRush: [[spoiler:The ending to the Silverwing Tour Arc. All the anti-Operation G teams have to fight, in order, Team Magou (voluntarily not putting up a fight), the four head executives, and then Mashin whips out [[EvilKnockoff Houka-2]].]]
** Not counting the Stream Arc, since all bosses have been met and fought before [[spoiler:except Ringoto and Mashin.]]
%%* CallingYourAttacks: Many characters.
%%* CloneByConversion: Many would be, but retained their own identities.
* ColonyDrop: Alluded to, but never actually executed. Hakkou only lands a space station for the True Ground Zero Tour.
* DemotedToExtra: For each arc with a new team in focus.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: The villain teams are just as tightly-knit than the heroes. [[spoiler:The only exceptions are Natsuki, who experiments on her family, Ringoto, who lets his zealotry lead him to kill family and others alike, and Mashin, who lives by ItsAllAboutMe.]]
* EverybodyDiesEnding: [[spoiler:Almost. Akina, Keiko, Tsuyoshi, and Koukyu survive. Everybody else dies.]]
* FlungClothing: Setsuna, Torou and Kintou start their fights against each other by [[TheCoatsAreOff dramatically throwing away their capes / coats-of-arms]].
* GoodIsNotSoft: Most of the anti-Operation G cast. Hakkou in particular, during the Vector 41 Arc, brutalizes Gilberto to the point of knocking him out in seconds with little provocation.
%%* GrappleMove: Seen more than on occasion.
* GreyAndGrayMorality: Evil characters have some good traits and good characters do nasty things. Only a few characters are exempted.
* LargeHam: Koukyu and Karyu in particular, with some HamToHamCombat interspersed within their rivalry.
* LightIsNotGood: Ringoto, the BigBad, dresses mostly in light colors. [[spoiler:And Mashin, dressed in pure white, is a very morally lacking person.]]
* MegaCorp: Number Zero. Over half the characters can somehow relate to it.
* MirrorMatch: [[spoiler:Despite Houka-2 existing, she does not function as one for Houka.]]
* NotJustATournament: Every single arc. Each organizer is either in favor of Operation G and attempting to destroy or subdue the opposition, or against it and trying to lure the opposition out to capture and learn from them so they can stop it.
* PartsUnknown: Averted, with every character having a known nationality [[spoiler:with the exception of Houka-2 and Eiko, who are born during the plot]].
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Setsuna, Kiyoshi and Akemi going crazy also turns their eyes red.
* ScienceIsBad: Many characters had their lives made more problematic by scientific experiments, and that's before Operation G itself.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: To its parent fiction [[DarthWiki/AKoProject A-Ko Project]]. Operation G is portrayed in a much more negative light, though [[spoiler:The most blatant difference is only four characters (Koukyu, Tsuyoshi, Keiko and Akina) survive Operation G.]]
** ShoutOut / RecycledScript: [[spoiler:In A-Ko Project, [[TheHero main protagonist]] girl Chiaki gets kidnapped and brainwashed at the start of the final arc. In Operation G, [[TheHero main protagonist]] girl Houka gets a brainwashed and crazy clone just before the final arc.]]
* TitleDrop: Operation G can refer to the work, or Ringoto's [[ThePlan plan]].
* TwoGuysAndAGirl: All the teams.
* VillainsActHeroesReact: More exactly, [[VillainProtagonist Villain Protagonists Act]] [[HeroAntagonist Hero Antagonists React]]: The Operation G staff is the acting faction.
** InvertedTrope: Team Ougoku itself doesn't act, except by protecting Niki from the teams intent on stopping the project.

!Characters:
DarthWiki/OperationG has a lot of characters, so they are sorted by teams.\\

[[foldercontrol]]

[[folder:Team Ougoku]]
-> Supervised by: Niki Yagawa
--> Captain: Kuuki Kishitsu
---> Other members: Shadou Koukyu, Honbuki Houka
!!!Tropes associated with the team:
* MightyGlacier / TheBrute: The whole team is composed of heavy-type fighters. Koukyu is by a good margin the least power-oriented fighter of the three.
* TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse: When they are in their third outfits, it takes distinguishing Koukyu's hair to realize that it's really them. Houka is barely recognizable being {{Stripperiffic}} [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking and blonde]].
* VillainProtagonist: By virtue of siding with the Operation G, and being supervised by Niki. Otherwise...
** AntiVillain: ... they are essentially nice guys, except for their personal issues. Kuuki's devotion to Niki, Koukyu's HairTriggerTemper and Houka's [[EvilIsPetty pettiness]] and [[SmallNameBigEgo ego]].
!!!Tropes associated with Kuuki:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 212 cm
* Weight: 137 kg
* Likes: Electricity
* Dislikes: Tigers
]
* BloodKnight: He enjoys the fighting itself, though he doesn't enjoy the potential harsh consequences.
* BrainsAndBrawn: With the rest of his team. Even though he's far from weak, it's fairly obvious which side is which.
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: Mostly a NiceGuy, but he can kick ass if need arises.
* DueToTheDead: [[spoiler:When [[DespairEventHorizon Niki dies by Akemi]], Kuuki decides to [[RevengeByProxy kill Rigan as punishment]], and set her up as his next victim. Mashin's intervention cuts the CycleOfRevenge short though since he kills both Kuuki and Akemi.]]
* GentleGiant: In contrast to the rest of the team. [[BerserkButton Just don't say anything bad regarding Niki]] or you will TalkToTheFist.
* TheLastDance: [[spoiler:When Niki kicks the bucket, Kuuki disbands Team Ougoku and goes on a long charge with the only goal of doing as much damage to Niki's killers before he dies.]]
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: Niki saved his life from errance and starvation, and for this reason Kuuki is devoted to Niki to his last breath. [[spoiler:Things go south when Niki dies.]]
* RealMenWearPink: Even his hair is dyed with a pink hue.
* RedOniBlueOni: Be it to Koukyu or Houka, he's always the Blue Oni.
* StuffBlowingUp: His Ultimate, ''Meteor Piledriver'', makes a huge explosion at impact, which is what is seen from the Ultimate zoom-out.
* UnstoppableRage: [[spoiler:Once Niki dies, he forfeits his sanity and goes crazy on Team Kouei (or rather, Akemi and Rigan since Niki had already killed Yuuji), killing off Rigan in the process.]]
* UseYourHead: More likely to think, but he uses a headbutt as an easy throw.
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Uses several wrestling moves. He has no less than three powerbombs in his moveset.

!!!Tropes associated with Koukyu:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 186 cm
* Weight: 109 kg
* Likes: Partying, motorcycles
* Dislikes: Chic stuff
]
* {{Acrofatic}}: A very downplayed case, as he usually wears clothes that hide his fat, and he is not too overweight.
* AmbiguouslyBrown: His second outfit has him with an obscure artificial tan.
* BadassBiker: Crosses into BigDamnHeroes to bail Houka out [[spoiler:of the Mystery East Tour site when she's cornered by Team Mugen: he drives past Miki with his bike at high speed and whacks her with a cane while at it, then quickly takes Houka on board and leaves.]]
* BigBrotherInstinct: While not Houka's big brother, he quickly develops this for her.
%%* BoisterousBruiser
%%* CoolShades: His second outfit, again.
%%* FormerlyFat: He's still overweight.
%%* HeavySleeper
* HellBentForLeather: His second outfit. He suggests the same fashion to Houka and she runs with it too. Kuuki pokes fun at them.
--> '''Kuuki''': [[DeadpanSnarker "You're making yourselves look like goth band rejects."]]
* HiddenHeartOfGold: He's a jerk those who want to dig into his motives.
%%* HotBlooded
* MercyKill: [[spoiler:After Tang is stalled to agony by Natsuki after being fired and begs for death, he and Kintou make his suffering as brief as possible.]]
* PutOnABus: After the above MercyKill incident. [[spoiler:He completely gives up fighting for a while. He catches back up to the others only after nearly everyone else died.]]
* RapidFireFisticuffs:
* RuleOfCool: Runs after it.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: [[spoiler:Once he sees Niki dead and Kuuki flipping off, complete with people starting to die left and right. The hiatus is brief, though: once he hears about Ringoto's treatment of Tang, he immediately goes to try and assist him, but it's too late. Cue him taking another break because he gave up fighting due to the consequences.]]
* SpinAttack: He exploits his surprising speed for momentum.
* UnskilledButStrong: He has little knowledge of his wind magic, so he relies on shockwaves more than wind currents.
!!!Tropes associated with Houka:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 165 cm
* Weight: 48 kg
* Likes: Sake
* Dislikes: Paperwork
]
* AlcoholInducedIdiocy: Alluded to. She drinks a lot and she's definitely not the smartest of the load. When deprived of her drinks, she proves to be far smarter.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Essentially nice, but she is easily angered and packs a wallop.
** Her frustration also lead to the start of the story, with her as the [[VillainProtagonist bad guy]].
* BloodKnight: [[spoiler:Once Team Ougoku is disbanded, she doesn't know what to do. When she crosses paths with Team Ranken, she tries to find a thrill in fighting again by picking a fight (harmlessly so) with Tae-yeong.]]
%%* ConfusionFu
* CreepyChild: Much [[OlderThanTheyLook older than the norm, but looks the part]].
%%* CuteBruiser
* DesperatelyLookingForAPurposeInLife: [[spoiler:After Team Ougoku is disbanded. When she fails to have a thrill in her next fight, she decides to die fighting her clone.]]
%%* DrunkenMaster
* DumbBlonde: Inverted: her third outfit has her blonde as a con act and she's noticeably more vigilant and cunning than her usual self.
* FireBreathingDiner: Even though her main magic element is fire, she breathes ice instead to spoof the trope.
* FriendToAllChildren: She's an orphan, so she has a soft spot for abandoned children.
* HardDrinkingPartyGirl: Her FatalFlaw, aside from wrath. She loves drinking, but that makes her performance unreliable at best. Due to her childish looks, Kuuki and Koukyu try to avoid letting her get too drunk because of potential controversy.
* HellBentForLeather: Her second costume in-story is due to Koukyu decking her out in leather.
* MeaningfulName: Houka's name is a homophone for ''voluntary arson'', fitting for someone with fire powers.
* MightyGlacier: She's nearly as bad as Kuuki when it comes to mobility. She is also really powerful not only in physical power, but in magic as well. [[spoiler:Houka's innate brute power is what compelled Mashin to clone her.]]
* [[spoiler:MutualKill: With Houka-2.]]
* OlderThanTheyLook: She's 19, but everyone swears she's underage.
* PlayingDrunk: When fighting. [[JustifiedTrope Her fighting style is being a]] DrunkenMaster. Sometimes she really is drunk, though.
* RageQuit > FaceHeelTurn: Essentially, the beginning of the story. Houka runs away from Akina's group of disciples and is then tricked by Niki into joining Kuuki.
%%* SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud
* SuperStrength: Her first use of magic. She learns to make [[StuffBlowingUp explosions]], and then volcanos.
* UnskilledButStrong
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Her moveset packs many throws. Her front throw, ''Houka Buster'', is the Rock Bottom, and one of her supers is literally called ''Super Frankensteiner''.
* {{Youkai}} [[AnimalMotifs Motifs]]: Oni. Demonic undertones? Check. Loves sake? Check. Enormous physical strength? Compared to the other girls, check.
!!!Tropes associated with Niki:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 185 cm
* Weight: 77 kg
* Likes: Disguising
* Dislikes: The society
]
* ButtMonkey: He was this in his family once Miki got adopted and upstaged him in everything.
* CoolShades: Carries a pair. [[spoiler:Those are [[TragicKeepsake his friend Chouji's shades.]]]]
* CunningLikeAFox: He is rather fond of trickery.
* FastballSpecial: One of his supers has him spawn a shadow clone to ''throw himself at the enemy''.
%%* FlashStep
* GoodWithNumbers: Not that it matters, because Miki surpasses him in those regards [[GreenEyedMonster too]].
* GreenEyedMonster: Towards Miki.
* ItWasAGift: [[spoiler:Chouji's]] CoolShades.
* MasterOfDisguise: [[spoiler:Niki fools the relatives of his dead close friend Chouji when impersonating him. Justified as they have been working on this together as Chouji was sickly and close to death.]]
* NotHimself: [[spoiler:According to his death speech, he has never been himself. Kuuki disagrees once the ordeal is done, but he comes in too late to contest that.]]
--> [[spoiler:"I have never been anyone. I've been a poor man's Miki, and I've been Chouji. You can kill me, you will have killed no one."]]
%%* PoisonedWeapons: His hands, thanks to magic learned from Chouji.
%%* ShadowPin
%%* SoreLoser: Big time.
* TurnedAgainstTheirMasters: Against his family, to be more honest.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Team Mugen]]
-> Supervised by: Miki Yagawa
--> Captain: Shiro Kokuu
---> Other members: Karyu Nantogan, Tenko Sanjou
!!! Tropes associated with the team:
* ChildProdigy: All three members were examples, to an extent. Shiro having a [[PowerNullifier power-nullifying natural gift]], Karyu for being so proficient at Taek Won Do, and Tenko being just a self-taught fighting prodigy who wins many fights with no actual fighting training.
* HeroAntagonist: In contrast to Team Ougoku, and to complete their VillainProtagonist status, Team Mugen look and act the part of a hero.
** FaceHeelTurn: [[spoiler:At the end of the Silverwing Arc, they attack Team Magou with the only justification of Team Magou's treachery. By that point, Team Magou had revealed Mashin's existence to the anti-Operation G teams to Team Mugen. Even though this attack was commenditated by Miki, this turn still is in effect, as they reveal their higher-powered forms to take on Ringoto and Eiko at the Stream, with their intent being becoming God themselves.]]
* TheRival: Shiro is Kuuki's, Karyu is Koukyu's and Tenko is Houka's; and so for a good chunk of the plot.
!!!Tropes associated with Shiro:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 206 cm
* Weight: 135 kg
* Likes: Theater masks
* Dislikes: Evil plans
]
* CounterAttack: He's renowned for those.
* LightEmUp
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold
* MightyGlacier: He hits hard and his magic is powerful enough to nullify or counteract anybody else's. Though, he is slow; though since he usually confronted the equally-slow Kuuki, he said he was a LightningBruiser.
* PowerNullifier: His shields can break all sorts of magic.
* TheQuietOne: Usually leaves the speaking and [[BadassBoast badass boasting]] to Karyu and Tenko.
** BewareTheQuietOnes: He kicks more ass than his teammates.
* [[spoiler:RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: His secret form, seen during the Stream Arc. He even says Team Mugen is out to "kill God". Despite that, he dies.]]
%%* SmugSuper
%%* TheStoic
* WhiteMaskOfDoom: He has one, and he likes to wear it because of his passion for theater, but it obscures his vision; so of course he never wears it in actual bouts.
** [[spoiler:During the final arc, he conceals his face with a black mask.]]
!!!Tropes associated with Karyu:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 178 cm
* Weight: 73 kg
* Likes: Pasta
* Dislikes: Stress
]
* BringIt: He loves taunting and being flashy, and overuses this trope.
* ButNotTooForeign: Averted. He's born 100% American, but eventually came to live in Japan. Karyu is a stage name.
* TheFourGods: Comments on this when he notices Seino and Gilberto.
--> "Okay, did you guys bring a Genbu too?"
* HandsomeLech: He loves hitting on the girls, but since he means no actual compliment, none of them bites.
* HotBlooded: [[PlayingWithFire Ka]][[OurDragonsAreDifferent ryu]] is a name he made up. Fittingly enough.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: His [[IShallTauntYou taunting]] and tendency to brag annoys many, but his heart is mostly in the right place. [[spoiler:Even when Team Mugen confronts Mashin, he's the only one without the intention to kill or replace God.]]
* LonelyRichKid: In his early life, he would annoyed everyone around himself just to have company.
* MrFanservice: In-universe, he has a lot of fangirls, including Keiko.
* TheRival: He has a bunch of them of them. Koukyu, Seino, the list goes on.
* {{Shoryuken}}: A specialist.
!!!Tropes associated with Tenko:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 153 cm
* Weight: 45 kg
* Likes: Peaches, rainbows
* Dislikes: Boredom
]
* BadassBookworm / CuteBookworm: Mid-HeroicBSOD, she took to reading because she thought about not being able to fight at high levels anymore. Even after that period, she still tries to be this, but just fails to understand books, because she has been skipping lessons all her childhood. Her failings are PlayedForLaughs.
* BerserkButton: If you ever try to undermine her SmugSuper boasting. Yes, even post-HeroicBSOD.
* BornWinner: She almost never trains, yet she wins most fights she gets into even against elite fighters.
* BrattyHalfPint: The smallest person of the entire cast (and a full 10 cm below Haruka, the second-smallest), and the brattiest by an even larger margin. [[spoiler:When in her alternate form, she grows 20 cm.]]
%%* DishingOutDirt
* DoppelgangerAttack: Her ''[[LimitBreak Mahouken Geneizan]]''.
* DumbBlonde: Part of her hair is blonde.
* ForTheLulz: Her life with her [[LonelyRichKid secluded family]] felt so boring that she felt the need to drop out of her house.
* {{Jerkass}}: Since she has been labeled a prodigy, she's extremely arrogant and prone to reckless TrashTalk, to the point even Karyu (himself an ArrogantKungFuGuy) says she's a bit much. It takes Shiro and Karyu at once, or a HeroicBSOD, to get her to shut up.
* KiddieKid: She acts childish despite being 16, because she's a victim of an extreme case of ParentalNeglect. Also, she did drop out of her house several times and she has a penchant for skipping her home lessons.
* OneWingedAngel: Has one such form, but usually refuses to use it because it's ugly.
** [[spoiler:She still goes with it for the last arc.]]
* PlayingWithFire: She makes herself a magic sword out of densified magical fire.
* SmugSuper: She rarely ever lost a match for a good portion of the plot [[spoiler:(she even wins the Mystery East Tour on her own)]], which made her InsufferableGenius attitude worse and worse with the passage of time. In the High Point TournamentArc, she loses to Setsuna, and in the Red Leaf Tour just after it, she loses to Houka which starts [[HeroicBSOD greatly diminishing her ego]].
* [[spoiler:WhiteHairBlackHeart: Her OneWingedAngel form has white hair, and she's out-and-out vile, and much less benign about her arrogance than she was before. She's a complete sadist who relishes in every bit of pain she gives Mashin and even announces her intention to '''be''' God.]]
!!!Tropes associated with Miki:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 171 cm
* Weight: 60 kg
* Likes: Nobility
* Dislikes: Sore losers
]
* AnIcePerson: A few of her attacks use ice, blowing icy wind on opponents, directly freezing them in one of her throws, and using ice spikes to pierce her opponents.
* AttackReflector: Her ''Night Sky Cutter''.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: She is skilled at PowerCopying too. Demonstrated by showing off that she copied Tang's ''Rinshuu - Rekkai''. Torou and Gilberto also know (and complain) her ''Death Force'' is a secret technique from the Yi Clan.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Miki is usually an agreeable, well-meaning, and fair-playing lady. But in the face of the thick mystery surrounding Operation G, she hatches up a few devious schemes over the course of the story, all attempts to get it to blow apart.
* BitchInSheepsClothing: [[spoiler:What Ginshi calls her when they face off, for her unjustified attack on Team Magou and trapping Lucille forever in a dimensional breach.]]
* ClearMyName: A variant: she wants to stop her brother Niki from associating with Operation G because it is detrimental to her reputation.
* DanceBattler: She mixes ballerina and other dances into her attacks. One of her moves is named ''Ballerina''.
* FingerPokeOfDoom: Her [[LimitBreak Ultimate]] ends with this.
* HappilyAdopted: She's not born Japanese but Indonesian. The fact that an adopted child became the favorite of the family is the source of her problems with [[GreenEyedMonster Niki]].
* OldMaid: She's 29 and unmarried. This is often thrown at her face as an insult by Tenko.
* PowerLimiter: Her bracelets are one. [[spoiler:Even though she takes them off against Ginshi, both die in the ensuing battle.]]
* TheStoic: She isn't very expressive, and rarely loses her temper.
* SweetTooth: It's even this common point with Houka that causes Miki to see her outside a fight before anyone else after Houka's defection.
* TautologicalTemplar: Miki alludes to the trope [[spoiler:when she says to Ginshi's face that Team Mugen's attack on Team Magou won't be reprimanded but cheered, simply because of what they're known as at large: Miki a good person, and Ginshi a villain.]]
* WellIntentionedExtremist: She is ready to do some nasty things to stop Operation G. [[spoiler:In the Mystery East Tour, she attempts to kidnap Houka. In the Silverwing Arc, she traps Lucille in a PocketDimension, and then attempts to kill Ginshi.]]
* WorthyOpponent: Considered this by many of the Operation G staff. Except [[GreenEyedMonster Niki.]] [[spoiler:Ginshi [[BrokenPedestal replaces him on the hate-train]] when she gets a hold of Miki's intention and what she's ready to do for it (read:trap Lucille in a PocketDimension for as long as she's alive).]]

[[folder:Team Ranken]]
-> Supervised by: Hakkou Seichi
--> Captain: Kim Tae-yeong
---> Other members: Torou Teisou, Keiko Seichi
!!!Tropes associated with the team:
* TheBigGuy: Except Tae-yeong - who's no slouch in this domain either - the team is composed of the heaviest hitters in their side. Also, they are the MightyGlacier type, except Tae-yeong.
* [[NotSoHarmlessVillain Not So Harmless]] HeroAntagonist: While Torou and Keiko look serious, Tae-yeong's gests and attitude caused Team Ougoku to dismiss them as a non-threat. [[spoiler:And then, Tae-yeong pops up backstage and - unhindered by anything - attacks Tang directly.]]
!!!Tropes associated with Tae-yeong:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 178 cm
* Weight: 79 kg
* Likes: His cap, rap music
* Dislikes: Drugs, cheating
]
* AnimalMotifs: The wolf, present in a few of his attack names.
* BoisterousBruiser: Of sorts.
* ChildProdigy: Defied this trope in order to not be noticed. In his refusal to be known, Tae-yeong kept holding back on the road to elite fighting tier.
* CombatPragmatist: More "tactician pragmatist". He assumes the façade of a BoisterousWeakling to totally fool Team Konryuu and get right at Tang's face unnoticed.
* ConfusionFu: He uses two Flamingo stances to this effect, changing how he fights in either of those stances.
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: Faked being remotely competent on combat but acted like a complete idiot otherwise.
* GivingSomeoneThePointerFinger: With DeathGlare, [[spoiler:When Team Ougoku escapes right after "burying" Tang. Also, after Eiko kills Tatsuya, though he charges in recklessly and gets killed.]]
* GratuitousEnglish: Invokes this because [[RuleOfCool "it sounds different"]]. [[JustifiedTrope And he's born in America.]]
%%* GroundPound
%%* HotBlooded
* JusticeWillPrevail: His general trail of thought.
* KiManipulation: His only notable long-range moves. He maintains his attacks because they're ground-bound.
* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: He's a Tatsuya fanboy. [[spoiler:This causes his quick death to Eiko just after she kills Tatsuya since he goes LeeroyJenkins upon seeing Tatsuya die, only to meet the same fate himself.]]
* MilkingTheGiantCow: His moves are extremely visible due to him making huge gestures. [[AwesomeButImpractical Even though this results in him being easy to predict and easy to tire out]], [[{{Reconstruction}} he prefers to keep going because his moves have momentum, and it hits hard]] [[RuleOfCool while being endearing to watch]], and he's grown accustomed to it well enough that the stamina issue became moot.
* SinsOfOurFathers: Pursuing Tang because Tang's grandpa killed his [[DisappearedDad dad]]. He realizes how wrong this was, though, [[spoiler:when Natsuki fights Tang and stalls him to his death over it]].
* TechnicianVersusPerformer: In regards to his brother, or his team partner Torou, he's the Performer, both of them being technicians compared to him.
!!!Tropes associated with Torou:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 203 cm
* Weight: 138 kg
* Likes: Horned animals
* Dislikes: Fragile things
]
* BadassArmFold: Adopts this whenever he needs to feel threatening.
* TheBigGuy: He's the biggest guy around. Even bigger than Kuuki.
** BigGuyFatalitySyndrome: [[spoiler:Though he isn't the first person to die, and it isn't a HeroicSacrifice: Ringoto kills him for "rebelling against his new world".]]
* CombatPragmatist: Despite being a hero, he still uses the Poison Mist, which is usually associated with {{heel}}s.
* CoolMask: As a MaskedLuchador.
%%* EmotionalBruiser
* FlashStep: Despite his size, he has the ''Yi Phase Walk'', which is one.
%%* GentleGiant
* {{Mentor}}: He mentors Tae-yeong, his own team leader, in fighting.
* MightyGlacier: He attempts to defy this trope, but outside of his FlashStep, he is still a big slow guy.
* OddFriendship: With [[WrestlerInAllOfUs fellow "kinda-wrestler"]] Rigan. They wrestled each other more than once before the story. However, he doesn't know that Rigan and Tae-yeong are brothers, because he doesn't know Rigan's real identity.
* TheParagonAlwaysRebels: Eldest son (Setsuna is older than him though) of the head of Operation G, yet he sides against it.
* TheQuietOne: He is much more mature than his age suggests.
!!!Tropes associated with Keiko:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 164 cm
* Weight: 58 kg
* Likes: Autumn
* Dislikes: Sodas
]
* {{Angst}}: She asks herself why her brothers work for the Operation G staff, because this makes them her enemies. [[spoiler:And of course she angsts some more after Seino dies.]]
* AssKicksYou: The last part of her ''Defacer'' special move.
* BadassNormal: Her level in magic is abysmally low, yet she's as capable as the other girls, perhaps moreso, despite being a rookie.
* CombatPragmatist: Has taken this approach in order to be as strong as her brothers.
* CuteBruiser: This is a total opposite of her brothers. While Seino and Tsuyoshi are known for their gifts in using magic (namely [[EnergyBall fireballs]]), she's at her best up close and personal.
* {{Determinator}}: She can receive far more punishment than other girls. As well, she's absurdly insistent in looking for Seino, and comes back like a boomerang when Gilberto and Setsuna send her buzzing off. [[spoiler:Another note? After she and Tae-yeong attack Eiko after the latter killed Tatsuya, she actually survives the injuries she sustains, while the same injuries kill Tae-yeong.]]
* FlashStep: She aids herself with her mild earth magic. That's actually the only magic stuff she can do.
* HotBlooded
* NotSoAboveItAll: While her attacks are usually named traditionally, she goofily named one of her self-created moves ''Keiko-geri''.
* PerpetualFrowner: She's definitely [[{{Angst}} angsty]] about her brothers leaving and herself never being aided in leaving her family house. She has her few smiling moments, but [[SugarAndIcePersonality that's for her teammates only]].
%%* RapidFireFisticuffs
* SuperStrength: [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower She trained hard to have this.]]
* ThisIsUnforgivable: [[spoiler:When she hears about Ringoto having killed Seino. And then Torou. And some more when Tae-yeong dies, though at that point she faints due to injuries.]]
* {{Tomboy}}
* YouAreWhatYouHate: To a degree: she hates the fact that her brothers ran away from home to learn other fighting styles, but she wound up doing the same by learning Muay Thai.
!!!Tropes associated with Hakkou:
[floatboxright:

* Height: 182 cm
* Weight: 80 kg
* Likes: Looking cool
* Dislikes: Religion

* ArrogantKungFuGuy: When he ceases ignoring his martial arts skills.
* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: [[KlingonPromotion Killed the former CEO of Number Zero to take his place when he'd be back from jail.]]
%%* BadassCape
* BattleAura: Proof he's much stronger than the others is that it shows up whenever he ceases holding back.
* BetterAsFriends: [[AllLoveIsUnrequited Pulled on him by Miki.]] He's 13 years older than her, after all.
* CoolOldGuy: If 42 is treated as old, but he already has strands of white hair.
* TheDreaded: To the Operation G Staff. As much as they respect Miki, they fear having to fight Hakkou, because he is more powerful than them. [[spoiler:The trope turns around when Eiko not only survives his brutal onslaught, but replicates it and kills him in return.]]
* FlatEarthAtheist: He is a potent magic practitioner, but dislikes religion.
* HoldingBackThePhlebotinum: Doesn't engage his enemies often because his excessive power could lead to him getting jailed for murder again when he doesn't intend to.
* LetsGetDangerous: When he stops trying to be overly protective of his looks, he packs a hell of a punch and engages in displays of power that make pretty much all his peers jealous.
* NotSoInvincibleAfterAll: [[spoiler:Word for word in Ringoto's EvilGloating after his death by Eiko. Though it wasn't sickness so much as age that got to him.]]
* PrettyBoy: Tries his hardest to be one at his age (42) and partially succeeds.
* RealMenWearPink: He takes great care of his long hair, and collects {{Shoujo}} manga.
* RankScalesWithAsskicking: CEO of the scientific enterprise ''Number Zero''. Also a major kicker of asses.
* RuleOfCool: One of his driving lines, oppositely to Tatsuya.
* SpamAttack: His LimitBreak attacks have some of this.
* SphereOfDestruction: His Ultimate, seen from afar, still as this visible.
* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: When he fights, he indulges into heavy displays of power that often end up being this.

[[folder:Team Konryuu]]
-> Supervised by: Chenlian Tang
--> Captain: Seino Seichi
---> Other members: Gilberto Rinaldi, Setsuna Teisou
!!!Tropes associated with the team:
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney / ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections: Team Konryuu is often dismissive or actively hostile to the plans of their partner teams, because they can get away with it.
** ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: [[spoiler:After Operation G ends, Tang is unceremoniously let off. When Seino and Gilberto go ask Ringoto for help and the cure for Tang in his stead, they meet refusal; and when they insist on pursuing Ringoto, he kills them.]]

* Dislikes: Spiders

%%* BashBrothers: To a degree, with Gilberto.
* BloodKnight: The guy has been fighting and perfecting his style for his entire life, but with Tsuyoshi's "training" he fears about taking it too far.
%%* BlueOni: To Gilberto's Red.
* EnergyBall: He has a variety of those, charged with [[PlayingWithFire fire]] or [[ShockAndAwe electricity]].
* HeWhoFightsMonsters: He's afraid of fighting his AloofBigBrother Tsuyoshi because he fears that he may become too enthusiastic in fighting.
* {{Hunk}}: Seino is obviously ripped, and even though he is often well-dressed, he is decidedly masculine.
* KamehameHadoken: An InUniverse specialist. His [[LimitBreak Ultimate]], however, looks like he's channeling [[VideoGame/GuiltyGear Justice's Gamma Ray]] rather than Ryu's fireballs.
* NoSocialSkills: He doesn't know much outside of fighting. And he's running away from his younger sister Keiko because he doesn't want her to find out that he doesn't really so much as know her.
* NotHimself: What he thinks Tsuyoshi wants him to be.
* TheQuietOne
* RivalTurnedEvil: Karyu thinks of him as that. Seino is much more [[PragmaticVillainy pragmatic]]. [[spoiler:However, he dies before they can come to terms.]]
* TheStoic: Seino is extremely self-controlled, to the point of near inexpressiveness.
* TigerVersusDragon: He invokes this with Gilberto, him as the Dragon.

* Weight: 91 kg
* Likes: Looking classy
* Dislikes: Pasta

* ActionFashionista: Of sorts: he has an iconic outfit, but it ''is'' classy.
* AnimalMotifs: The tiger. He picked it up after Seino named his moves after dragons, and suggested him ThemeNaming.
* AffablyEvil: He gives a bit of his wealth to his coach to help finance Operation G, yet he is friendly to almost everybody. [[spoiler:He even dates Keiko, though this only leads to her using him to get information on the team, leading to Tae-yeong taking Tang by surprise.]]
* BraidsOfAction: Sometimes.
* DeathFromAbove: His Ultimate, ''White Tiger's Silver Arrow''.
* ExtremityExtremist: He kicks really much, only using his hands for magic and simple moves.
* FlashStep: Subverted; while he's usually very fast on his feet, he doesn't have one.
%%* KiManipulation
%%* LongHairedPrettyBoy
* OhCrap: [[spoiler:When he runs to Tang's rescue after Seino and Setsuna are ambushed by Torou and Keiko, he runs into Hakkou and has this reaction before Hakkou beats him unconscious.]]
* ShipTease: Has asked Keiko on a date and she ''accepted''. Though, she did so only to get him to talk about Seino, and [[DatePeepers a date-peeping Setsuna]] didn't help to appease the tension.
* SpamAttack: His ''Tiger Hunt''.
* TechnicalPacifist: He disagrees with the orders Tang has been given to investigate the Operation G staff's enemies, because he'd rather stay out of his enemies' faces. [[spoiler:Rightfully so, when he realizes Tae-yeong fooled Team Konryuu and Keiko and Torou are blocking the path to his teammates, leaving him alone to try and save Tang.]]
!!!Tropes associated with Setsuna:

'''Profile:'''
* Height: 173 cm
* Weight: 63 kg
* Likes: Serious stuff
* Dislikes: Barbecue
]
* ActionGirl: Stands out even amongst other girls in that she can take out the guys. She packs enough power to take out [[MightyGlacier Torou]], as she does exactly that during the Vector 41 Arc.
* AttackReflector: More like "deflector", but she's able to create ice barriers.
* CounterAttack: Not really, but her ''Dream Freeze'' lets her dodge attacks and FlashStep [[NoIAmBehindYou behind the opponent]] to attack.
* DatePeepers: Spies on Gilberto's date with Keiko so he doesn't talk too much.
* EverythingsBetterWithSparkles
* FieryRedhead: Inverted. She's a redhead, still, but fitting with her powers rather than her hair, she's AnIcePerson.
* HiddenHeartOfGold: Compared to girls, she can be unusually rough in her speech. [[JustifiedTrope That's because she's been]] [[OneOfTheBoys raised with dudes]].
%%* HumanPopsicle
%%* IHaveBrothers: Ten of them.
* IceQueen: One who defies being the defrosting type, as she alludes to before Keiko's date with Gilberto.
* LadyOfWar: Maintains an elegant air about herself at all times.
%%* PerpetualFrowner
* SmugSuper: Emphasis on super. She's much more experienced and powerful than most of her opponents, and she's condescending to the competition.
* SnowMeansDeath: Her Ultimate makes the surrounding area snowy, and is made to kill.
* TheStoic
!!!Tropes associated with Tang:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 177 cm
* Weight: 72 kg
* Likes: Meditating
* Dislikes: Sickness
]
* AnimalMotifs: [[CatsAreMagic Cats]], and sometimes ironically phoenixes.
%%* AntiVillain: Moreso than every other Operation G executive.
* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Though he admits his weaknesses due to sickness, but he's confident he can mop the floor with Tae-yeong in the time it'd take for him to be incapacitated by his sickness.
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: Capable of easily reading his opponent's moves. Also, he has a battle suit that analyzed his own movements [[spoiler:for Operation G]].
* BattleAura: When he has one, this is a mark of the incoming HeroicRROD.
* CounterAttack: His ''Rinshuu - Kimontonkou'' has versions meant as such.
* CurbStompBattle: Able to deliver like few others. He hands Tae-yeong his ass when he starts hitting him back, taking him down at a pace that rivalled Hakkou's trouncing of Gilberto just before.
%%* DeadpanSnarker
* DisabilitySuperpower: His unknown sickness is related to magic, but augments his heart rate if he gets serious, which gives him great ability in short battles, but ensures a HeroicRROD in a short time.
* DroppedABridgeOnHim: [[spoiler:When he was about to get caught, [[TricksterMentor Niki]] dropped a ton of sand over him before evacuating Team Ougoku, leaving Team Konryuu to try and take him out of that. [[AntiVillain Turns out he indirectly saved Tang from more pain by knocking him out]].]]
* HandicappedBadass: Has an unknown heart sickness that could kill him in one moment of hyperactivity, despite being really potent. [[spoiler:It is the cause of his eventual death when he gets stalled by Natsuki.]]
* HeroicResolve: Despite being a villain, Tang has the heroic motive of fighting against sickness in the world. His grandfather died of an unidentified sickness Tang has too [[spoiler:(that's the public excuse, Hakkou killed him while he had been left almost dead by Natsuki)]], strengthening his will to fight it. He never asks for drugs despite his would-be-constant need for those.
* HiddenDepths: Operation G worker, backstage curbstomper, {{Jerkass}}... [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold with a heart of gold]], and student in medicinal science fighting against sickness, and trying to complete Operation G to make a cure for all the sick people of the world.
* IDidWhatIHadToDo: His attitude towards his "bad" business in the Operation G. [[spoiler:He planned to surrender himself to the police and be jailed, once he was healed; but he died before.]]
* {{Jerkass}}: To anyone that bothers him. It's justified since he's really high on edge and on the verge of death, working his ass off to save his life.
%%* KindheartedCatLover
* LastNameBasis: Tang is his family name, but everyone knows him as Tang, except for the Yagawas, who call him Chen.
* NighInvulnerability: If he's serious, he's solid enough to receive little injury even from being punched out through a window of the second floor of a building. Though, this doesn't cover the ensuing HeroicRROD.
* [[spoiler:NotSoInvincibleAfterAll: Despite being a fighter potent enough to wipe the floor with Natsuki (at the beginning), the outcome of the fight turns around once she endures the beatdown and sickness catches up to him.]]
* ParentalAbandonment: His parents were killed. He was taken by his grandfather, who quickly threw him into an orphanage.
* SpinAttack: His ''Rinshuu'' (Circular Heel) has many variations, so it alone makes around half of his movepool. And let's not get started on his ''Cursed Wings of Fire'' [[LimitBreak Ultimate]], where he grows [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin wings of fire]] and [[DynamicEntry flings himself at the enemy]] while spinning like a drill.

[[folder:Team Kokujin]]
-> Supervised by: Tatsuya Mashima
--> Captain: Fuushi Mashima
---> Other members: Shakurou Kokuu, Izumi Umigiri
!!!Tropes associated with the team:
* AntiHero [[HeroAntagonist Antagonist]]: Not that obvious with TheDitz Izumi, but Fuushi and Shakurou give quite the GoodIsNotNice and JerkWithAHeartOfGold vibes respectively. And since they are the antagonists, they are blurring the line between good and evil when compared to AntiVillain [[VillainProtagonist Protagonist]] Team Jundou. [[spoiler:Fuushi is the only "hero" who gets to kill someone due to pure hatred, in his case Natsuki.]]
* BadassBiker: The three usually travel with motorbikes. Tatsuya himself dislikes this aspect of the team.
* FireIceLightning: In their primary elements: Shakurou's (mildly) PlayingWithFire, Izumi is AnIcePerson and Fuushi has ShockAndAwe.
* VitriolicBestBuds: The guys on a side and Izumi on the other.
!!!Tropes associated with Fuushi:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 184 cm
* Weight: 83 kg
* Likes: High-tech stuff, shoes
* Dislikes: Paragons of virtue
]
* AbusiveParents: Natsuki treated him harshly, and frequently beat him up, with him being roughed up by Tatsuya if he hit her back. He went the {{Determinator}} way through that.
* BerserkButton: Don't talk about his family.
* CallingTheOldWomanOut: His objective towards Natsuki is paying her back for her horrible mistreatment of him.
** TheDogBitesBack: [[spoiler:By the way, the bite is '''[[KilledOffForReal lethal]]'''.]]
* FlashStep: His Ultimate has him apparently punch ''through the opponent''.
* GoneHorriblyRight: As Natsuki's experiment. He resisted Natsuki's abusive treatment and his training, and ended with a [[MadeOfIron battle-hardened body and mind that clearly surpasses his half-brother's]]. [[spoiler:And when he catches her in a fight, he ends up mauling her to death.]]
* ItsAllAboutMe: To a degree. He takes his team into account, but he doesn't give a damn about the rest of the anti-Operation-G teams. [[spoiler:He willingly triggers Akemi's ''Soul of the Beast'', because doing so also triggers it in Setsuna, depriving the Operation G supporters of a major fighting force.]]
* MegatonPunch: His most powerful moves are essentially this.
* MissingMom: She died by childbirth when Fuushi was born. Tatsuya quickly found a new wife to cope with the death... and then it went FromBadToWorse.
* NotSoDifferentRemark: [[HeWhoFightsMonsters He is as ruthless and uncaring as his stepmother.]] [[YourApprovalFillsMeWithShame He isn't glad when she points this out.]] [[spoiler:He starts to mellow out after he kills her.]]
%%* PragmaticHero / GoodIsNotNice
%%* PsychoElectro
%%* RedEyesTakeWarning

* WellDoneSonGuy: As disobedient as he was, he wanted to hear his father Tatsuya be proud of him. [[spoiler:Fuushi hits a DespairEventHorizon when he arrives at the Stream and sees Tatsuya's dead body.]]

* Likes: Meat, cool stuff
* Dislikes: Rabbits, ghost stories
]
* BadPowersGoodPeople: Uses dark and fire magic for FireAndBrimstoneHell effect. GoodIsNotNice, but he's good nonetheless.
* BringMyRedJacket: Wears a red jacket pretty much all the time. Cue his younger brother Aoshi's DangerousSixteenthBirthday. It was not dangerous for Aoshi, but for him because Aoshi impaled his arm with an ice shard.
* CallingYourAttacks: To intimidate his opponents with his very dark choices of names.
%%* DarkIsNotEvil: But GoodIsNotNice.
* FragileSpeedster: To a degree, but he is this at least comparatively to his frame.
%%* JerkWithAHeartOfGold
%%* PerpetualFrowner
* PragmaticHero: Exact same deal as Fuushi. There's a reason they get along.
* RedOni: To both his brothers' blue.
** HiddenDepths: Deep inside, he's in fact the BlueOni to Aoshi's Red.
* SirSwearsALot: Bringing up Aoshi is enough to make him unleash a ClusterFBomb.
* TeethClenchedTeamwork: With Shiro, they keep Team Kokujin and Team Mugen synchronized to act against the Operation G staff, though they are pretty spiteful to each other.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Meat.
* WouldntHitAGirl: Less than Aoshi. His reluctance doesn't hinder him the very least bit when in competition, even though he still complains about it once he's done.
!!!Tropes associated with Izumi:
[floatboxright:
'''Profile:'''
* Height: 167 cm
* Weight: 59 kg
* Likes: Ice cream
* Dislikes: Brainy nerds
]
* BerserkButton: "UsefulNotes/{{Baka}}." Partly because she feels slighted and it calls back to Miki and Tenko calling her that repeatedly.
* CellPhone: Makes extensive usage of hers since she's the only one on the team to go alone sometimes. Besides, she frequently contacts Akina and Miki.
%%* TheDitz
* {{Foil}}: To both of her teammates, providing some good image with her carefree and outgoing attitude.
* MyGreatestFailure: Letting Haruka go while trying to retrieve Houka — and the fact that she got fooled by Niki into leaving Houka with him as well.
* NotSoHarmless: She looks like a lightweight idiot, which would make her a bottom-feeder, but she's actually stronger than the standards for girls.
%%* SmallNameBigEgo
%%* {{Tomboy}}: In attitude at least.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Ice cream.
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: She occasionally uses the Diamond Dust.

* Likes: Traditional Japanese sandals
* Dislikes: Anybody who lacks self-control

* AnimeHair
* BadassNormal: Uses magic sparingly, yet he is renowned for being nearly unbeatable head-on and tough as nails.
** LamarckWasRight: Most definitely, his sons' strength and skill make him proud (and they definitely got some after him despite his notable lack of presence as a father). Them constantly fighting each other, not so much.
* ClothesMakeTheLegend: Inverted. Tatsuya is renowned, but the outfit he wore while he was a fearsome fighter has gone unremembered by anyone but himself.
* CoolOldGuy
* {{Determinator}}: [[spoiler:Along with his body's natural toughness, this attribute explains why it's so hard for him to go down. He takes twice the beatdown Hakkou did from Eiko, but still succumbs.]]
* GoodScarsEvilScars: He had a long pro fighting career, and many scars due to having fought so much.
* {{Jerkass}}: Tatsuya is infamous in the fighting community because of how vocal he is about his distaste for technological progress and its impact on fighting.
* LivingLegend: To a degree, since he was as hated as loved. Even while not fighting, he has mixed reception. His [[NoOneCouldSurviveThat unlikely survivals from assassination attempts]] made some people think he orchestrated fake attempts at taking his life.
* MadeOfIron: He's insanely tough, probably being the one who can take the most devilish beating out of the whole cast. [[spoiler:He doesn't survive Eiko though.]]
* MayDecemberRomance: With Natsuki. She's 17 years younger than him. Ginshi even gets a cheap shot at him during the Silverwing Arc.
--> '''Ginshi:''' "How does it feel to live with someone who is younger than [[spoiler:your adoptive daughter?]]"
* OhCrap: [[spoiler:When he sees Hakkou die to Eiko. He still fights her immediately, and gets killed too.]]
* PetTheDog: [[spoiler:When he is told that Natsuki has used the tournament she organized for research, he expresses concern for Kiyoshi, and realizes getting married to Natsuki was a mistake. Though, he's 19 years too late.]]
* RefugeInAudacity: He thinks rather flamboyantly, and reacts just as audaciously about the slightest debate.
* StoneWall: He's known for taking a lot of hits to bring down. [[spoiler:Eiko gives him a RasputinianDeath for his refusal to fall down.]]

[[folder:Team Jundou]]
-> Supervised by: Natsuki Irin
--> Captain: Kiyoshi Irin
---> Other members: Aoshi Kokuu, Haruka Chinai
!!!Tropes associated with the team:
* [[AntiVillain Anti]] VillainProtagonist: Barring Natsuki. The only thing that doesn't make them outright heroes is that they work for the bad guys.
** TeethClenchedTeamwork: [[spoiler:Post Nameless Tournament. They want Operation G to complete, and for that they need to protect Natsuki, but they have a clear grudge against her for experimenting in her own tournament.]]
* KnightTemplar: They think they are on the side of good, and Operation G will benefit everyone. [[spoiler:Even when they pit themselves against Natsuki, Kiyoshi's purpose in doing so is to call her out on her messing with the tournament because he wanted to win it fair (and he had a good chance of succeeding given he was in the finals against Fuushi).]]
* VillainWithGoodPublicity: An obvious case during the Nameless Tournament, where they look and act like heroes especially by comparison to [[GoodIsNotNice Team Kokujin]]. Natsuki, Aoshi, and Haruka tarnish the team's reputation in turn.

* Height: 181 cm
* Weight: 76 kg
* Likes: Traditions
* Dislikes: People with bad reputation
]
%%* AloofAlly: To Aoshi.
* ApologeticAttacker: Sort of. He's always well-mannered, and if he feels really concerned (like when he injures his opponent for real, in gameplay defeating the opponent with a special move or stronger), he falls into this.
* BadassLongcoat
* DarkIsNotEvil: Dresses mostly in black, but the white in his clothing is the thing to stand by.
* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: Kiyoshi adores his parents. [[spoiler:It's not reciprocal with Natsuki, and once Kiyoshi finds out, he's justifiably angered about that.]]
* HiddenHeartOfGold: Acts cold-hearted to anyone who attempts to meddle with his team or his mother outside the ring, but that's because he cares deeply about them.
* {{Irony}}: The leader of Team Jundou (meaning "pure path") has both ''Demon Brand'' and ''Soul of the Beast'', that are darkness-based magical afflictions.
* PowerOfTrust: He starts out strong because his focus is on fighting: [[HorribleJudgeOfCharacter he trusts Natsuki to do what's best for him and the team.]] [[spoiler:He finds out that he's a test subject, just like everyone else.]]
* TheRival: Views Fuushi as this and awaits the day they will fight, though Fuushi's having none of this.
* SlouchOfVillainy: Adopts this whenever he talks to his team in formal manners.
* TheStoic
** NotSoStoic: [[spoiler:He cracks when he discovers Natsuki tested on all the contestants in the tournament. He's obviously pissed when he goes say some words to her.]]

* Dislikes: Meat, grand ideals, loudmouths

* AboveGoodAndEvil: He claims to be this, as he doesn't care about morality.
* AlwaysSaveTheGirl: Despite being a dick, by his rules, "men and women don't fight". Though, if a girl attacks him threateningly enough, he'll justify himself riposting.
---> "[[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch Bitches]] are fair game."
* AnIcePerson: Full force.
* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Was this to Shakurou and Shiro. Both kept rejecting him, resulting in Aoshi's screwed up state of mind, making his FaceHeelTurn a NiceJobBreakingItHero.
* AgentPeacock: His third outfit has him dressed like a woman, including heels.
%%* BadassBookworm
* BadassInANiceSuit: He usually dresses classy, and is an excellent fighter.
* BerserkButton: [[DoubleStandard Men beating up on girls]] seems to be the first one, but attempting to mess with his team has him get a lot more expressive with his anger. When mentioning or dealing with his family, he can get unhinged.
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: He has his own standards, and does not abide by others'.
* BrokenBird: Has been abandoned and left behind throughout his childhood. [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Nice Job Breaking Him, Bros.]]
%%* CoolBigBro: In his childhood, he thought of Shakurou and Shiro as this.
%%* CreepyCrossdresser: In his third outfit.

%%* EvilBrit
* EvilIsDeathlyCold: He looks like the GoodIsNotNice type of person.
* GreenEyedMonster: His green eyes are an obvious indication of his FatalFlaw.
* HiddenDepths: He hides a HairTriggerTemper that would make him the RedOni to Shakurou's Blue.
* HiddenHeartOfGold: When he notices Kiyoshi having matters to solve with Natsuki, he shoos off most attempts to help for the sake of his team leader out of genuine care.
* IneffectualLoner: Notably subverted, he actually cares about Kiyoshi and can sometimes go out of his way to help his leader for no reason at all.
* {{Jerkass}}: In the fighting field and nearby, he acts like a gentleman, but outside of the arena, he lets go of his obligations and falls into this.
* LeanAndMean: One of the leanest men around, and also one of the meanest as long as his HiddenHeartOfGold remains hidden.
* LikeBrotherAndSister: His desperate need for a family leads him to be a better sibling to Haruka than Akina ever was. [[spoiler:He actually digs Haruka's personality out of its sealed state simply by being there.]]
* PurelyAestheticGlasses: Wears those outside fights, to maintain his "educated gentleman" image.
* SelectiveObliviousness: He liberally ignores anyone else's standards, ideals, misgivings, or gripes with him.
* TheStoic: He's almost unflappable in normal situations.
** NotSoStoic: Hitting a BerserkButton breaks the façade.
* UnstoppableRage: [[spoiler:When he stalls for Kiyoshi, it takes a lot of time and people to bring him down, because of this.]]

%%* AttentionDeficitOohShiny
* CallingYourAttacks: Her attack-naming conventions are odd, since her special attacks are named in one word. All the other attacks have some psyche undertones.
* CheerfulChild: She looks like one when speaking ([[CreepyChild even things one shouldn't smile about]]).
* CloudCuckooLander: An extreme case, due to the psychic seal on her by Akina restricting her ability to think. It even lead to her running away from the orphanage because she forgot where she was going. Then [[FaceHeelTurn Aoshi found her]].
%%* CreepyChild
* DissonantSerenity: She always sounds cheerful or serene. One could think her to give positive vibes, but she's the total contrary.
* TheDrifter / WalkingTheEarth: A short stint, triggered unwittingly by Houka. When she left the orphanage behind, Haruka didn't come back from her search party role. This resulted in her wandering aimlessly until found by Aoshi.
* EmotionlessGirl: At the start, when not talking or interacting in any way, she has a blank face.
* GirlyGirl: Oppositely to Izumi (at least in terms of behaviour).
* HopeIsScary: She is scared when Kiyoshi and Aoshi give her a diction lesson, even though she loves speaking to people.
* LackOfEmpathy: She has no sense of remorse about beating people, instead cheerfully jumping around in victory.
%%* MindRape: Her ''Mind Vise''.
* ParentalAbandonment: The reason all her upbringing was left to her big sis' Akina.
* ShowSomeLeg: Her third suit. Akina threw a fit when she saw it, thinking Aoshi and Kiyoshi were making her look like a prostitute, but when she gets to Aoshi (the one she judged guilty for it as [[AgentPeacock he was dressed very similarly to her despite being a man]]), he tells her that Haruka composed her attire herself this once.
* SugaryMalice: Her actual personality.

* Height: 165 cm
* Weight: 58 kg
* Likes: Simplistic things
* Dislikes: Brutality
]
* AbsurdlyYouthfulMother: She's 39, but looks in her early twenties.
* AbusiveMom: To Fuushi. She was very caring of Kiyoshi. [[spoiler:But it was an experiment for her to guess which of the two would turn out stronger.]]
* ActionMom: This once, it's ''not a good thing''.
* BatmanGambit: She loves toying with Fuushi, knowing how much he hates her. Her ability to manipulate him despite himself is the reason the AntiHero Team Kokujin is relatively ineffectual.
* BigScrewedUpFamily: She ''invoked it'' by marrying with Tatsuya.
* BrokenBird: Has been [[BreakTheCutie broken at the tender age of 13 by a former executive of the then-illegal ''Number Zero'']] (none other than Tang's grandpa), who kidnapped her and experimented on her. She lost all sorts of moral compasses and took all the man's possessions for herself after he died.
* TheChosenOne: Perhaps the cause she was experimented on was her inborn holy power.
%%* EvilGenius
* EvilMatriarch: She messed up Tatsuya and Fuushi's life and played with them for experiments.
* FallenHeroine: She becomes a villainess.
%%* FlashStep
* ForScience: Her justification. Even her marriage and offspring are an experiment to her.
* GuineaPigFamily: [[spoiler:She drugged Kiyoshi more than once, and at the tournament she organizes, she drugs every single participant by hiding a serum in the food.]]
* HowDoIShotWeb: Has inborn holy powers, but forgot how to use them after her traumatic childhood.
* InLoveWithYourCarnage: [[spoiler:To Fuushi, shortly before he kills her.]]
* KickTheDog: [[spoiler:She indirectly kills Tang, stalling him when he planned to get back at Ringoto. She had no reason to do that other than a grudge against his grandfather (who she has already killed long ago).]]
* LackOfEmpathy: A pretty extreme case. After her kidnapping early in life, she lost it.
* LadyOfWar: Averted. While not fighting, she is poised, graceful, and elegant. While fighting, all the mannerisms are lost and she becomes minimalistic at best, creepy at worst.
%%v* PoisonousPerson
* PoweredByAForsakenChild: Inverted roles: she stole a part of her kidnapper's lifeforce to power herself up.
* PragmaticVillainy: She intervenes rarely, and if so it's for an experiment, or to [[BatmanGambit stall Fuushi]].
* SinsOfOurFathers: Killing Tang's grandfather was not enough for her; when Tang is recruited in the Operation G staff, she immediately gives herself a secondary goal to kill him. [[spoiler:And she uses the first opportunity she can to make good on it.]]
* VainSorceress: While not a witch, she abuses magic to remove the adverse effects of aging on herself.
* WickedStepmother
* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: Shown to have almost no redeemable feature and is far past the turning point. Among the lives she's screwed are not only the Mashima, but she also messed up the already-orphaned Kokuus even more after kidnapping Shiro for a short time. [[spoiler:Worse yet, she attempted experiments on him with Ringoto for the pre-early stages of nothing less than Operation G itself.]]

%%* DynamicEntry

* HardWorkHardlyWorks: Rigan's on par with Tae-yeong. Even though Rigan trained much harder.
* HighlyVisibleNinja: He [[InvokedTrope invokes]] this.
--> "Ninja should be invisible by their own discretion, not that of their clothing."
* LongHairedPrettyBoy
* MaskedLuchador: He trained several years in Mexico and has several lucha moves, even though he has no mask. He wrestled with Torou some times before the story.
* StreetUrchin: Was this after the murder of his father. He ran from the States to Mexico, and then to Japan where he became the ninja he is.
* TechnicianVersusPerformer: When you compare him to Tae-yeong, he's the technician. But if you compare him to Yuuji, he's the performer.

* BoringButPractical: He lives by this.
* ButNotTooForeign: Averted. He's fully American-blooded, but raised in Japan.
* FragileSpeedster: DefiedTrope. Even though he's a ninja, he refuses to neglect his sturdiness. Yuuji is physically sturdier than Rigan.
** FridgeLogic: He's born in the States, and his usual philosophy and fighting style are just Americanized versions of what he was taught.
* [[spoiler:HeKnowsTooMuch: He spots Niki posing as Chouji killing the Reitou Clan's leader, and Niki kills him for it.]]
* LightningBruiser: He moves fast, hits fast, and hits hard. His weakness is his near-inability to use magic.

* YamatoNadeshiko: She breaks out of this while concerned though.
* YouAreAlreadyDead: Her quote once she pops out her Ultimate.

* AMindIsATerribleThingToRead: She's extremely careful with her developed PsychicPowers, with this as the reason.
* [[AscendedFanboy Ascended]] FanGirl: Of both Hakkou and Tatsuya. She even worked with Hakkou on TV. [[spoiler:Which makes their successive deaths all the more hurtful to her.]]
* BadassBookworm: She could inflict a CurbStompBattle on her sister, despite being usually the bookish type of person.
%%* BadassCape
%%* BrainyBrunette
* BrokenBird: [[spoiler:Even more so once everyone dies. She's almost DrivenToSuicide.]]
* CoolBigSis: For Haruka, though given how blank and devoid of feelings their interactions are, it doesn't look the part.
** TeamMom: She was this to a good part of the girls. Houka, Tenko, Izumi, Haruka and Akemi all have been trained and raised to differing degrees by her.
*** [[spoiler:SurvivorGuilt: They all die and she doesn't, so she's grief-stricken after the plot ends.]]
* CuteBookworm: Many of the older characters call her one.
* DarkMagicalGirl: She's distant and aloof to hide her emotions, wears a black cape and has dark-elemental powers as well as light.
%%* DeadpanSnarker
* ExtraEyes: Usually manifests her PsychicPowers blatantly via an eye opening in the air out of nowhere.
* FriendToAllChildren: Works in an orphanage where she raised Haruka.
* KaleidoscopeHair: Always dyes her hair big time. Usually pink, but [[TrueBlueFemininity blue]] is not unseen.
* LuckilyMyPowersWillProtectMe: Since she exposes her powers so blatantly, you'd think she never bothered to hide them, like she wants everyone to know of her being a psychic.
* MagicalGirl: Acts like one on duty. It's an act: normally, she's TheQuietOne.
* MoralityChain: She was this for Haruka until the beginning of the plot. She was a physical chain as well, preventing Haruka from drifting.
* SuperheroesWearCapes: Her default outfit, even though the cape is black.
* {{Toku}}: Yup, she's a fangirl of this. [[TakeThat Houka calls her a silly nerd for this.]]

[[folder:Team Magou]]
-> Supervised by: Ginshi Kesshaku
--> Captain: Kintou Teisou
---> Other members: Tsuyoshi Seichi, Lucille Rousseau
!!!Tropes associated with the team:
* AmbiguouslyEvil: Much like a WildCard team. They manipulate the VillainProtagonist teams, but are {{villain protagonist}}s themselves, and their intentions aare unknown. [[spoiler:Until the end of the arc, where Mashin leaves in front of everyone, thus revealing their failure.]]
* BatmanGambit: Their way of manipulate the Operation G supporting teams is giving orders "from Ringoto" that conflict with their supervisor's orders, knowing that the other teams will disobey and align with their team leaders.
* CardCarryingVillain: They admit being outright villainous to the other teams [[spoiler:just so they don't meddle in their true carefully-planned goal]].
* EnigmaticMinion: To the Operation G staff. [[spoiler:Though they are kept in the dark for most of the real thing.]]
* ObfuscatingStupidity: [[spoiler:They lead teams Jundou, Konryuu and Ougoku respectively to abject failures, leaving Ginshi, Ringoto and Mashin unprotected.]]
* ThePowerOfFriendship: The team is one of the most closely-knit in the cast. Kintou and Lucille are genuine friends to Ginshi. And Tsuyoshi lives with her like an adopted child. [[spoiler:Ginshi's friendship is strong enough that she manages to hold off Miki (who is otherwise stronger than her) while she crashes the Silverwing, all to save Lucille. Their friendship is strong enough that Kintou manages to hurt Ringoto before dying despite Eiko's presence, and Tsuyoshi and Lucille's desire to at least avenge their fallen friends lead them to defeat Mashin, and Lucille's desire to save Tsuyoshi holds off Mashin's mind.]]
* SupportingProtagonist: They brief the other teams, claiming it's for Ringoto's security fairly often, but they do it wrong to EpicFail effect. [[spoiler:This was revealed to be done wrong on purpose, to bring Mashin to the eyes of all to thwart his plans]].

* AbsurdlySharpBlade: Makes one [[HardLight out of light]].
* AloofBigBrother: Though he is the ''youngest'' main character of his family, he has younger brothers. But he's standoffish about his entire family, little and big brothers alike.
* BlueBlood: The Teisou family are all noble and powerful fighters.
* CallingTheOldManOut: [[spoiler:His objective after his MercyKill on Tang. When he does, Ringoto kills him.]]
* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: He's a {{Sleepyhead}} who does not attack his opponents very seriously, but he's much more clever than he lets on and quickly adapts to and supplements Lucille's gambits. [[spoiler:Which explains Lucille catching up so quickly after her return.]]
* EvilLaugh: How he sets his team up as ObviouslyEvil.
* TheLawOfDiminishingDefensiveEffort: Defied. In battle, he's unwilling to drop his guard even though he's one of the world's greatest fighters. Though, he does attack like if half-heartedly, so it would be an attacking counterpart of this trope.
* InsufferableGenius: He's one of the strongest fighters of his generation, so he takes many opportunities to boast about it.
* TheProudElite: Oh so much. The Teisou family is known for being a breed of extremely good fighters.
* RuleOfCool: He attacks with smooth and nonchalant gestures.

* Height: 188 cm
* Weight: 124 kg
* Likes: Worthy opponents
* Dislikes: Morality
]
* AboveGoodAndEvil: Taking upon oneself to be good or evil is a good way to earn his disdain, as he thinks himself above petty monikers. He's okay with feigning evilness, but dislikes the idea.
* AloofBigBrother: He treats his little Seino only as someone he [[StealthMentor "trains"]].
%%* ArrogantKungFuGuy
* BadassBack: Indulges in this heavily.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Though, in his case, Dark is still [[{{Jerkass}} uncaring]], [[BloodKnight violent]], and [[BlueAndOrangeMorality alien]], as well as a villainous SupportingProtagonist.
* DeathFromAbove: His ''Splitting Purifier'' LimitBreak. The first part is just an overhead chop, but the second part is that exact same chop, done while descending of a [[InASingleBound hulk jump]].
* EvilCounterpart: He looks like this to his younger brother Seino.
* GroundPunch: His ''Gouchizuki'' Ultimate.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He's extremely brutal and has no qualms hitting anyone if it means the team can advance unhindered [[TheBrute (that's basically his role)]]. Despite this, he usually stops at knocking people unconscious, and he could go as far as leaving the unconscious body to the partners just so they allow the victim to rest properly.
* KamehameHadoken: He fires ki from his hands '''and''' feet.
* INeedYouStronger: Tries to invoke a good challenge by "training" Seino.
* MeaningfulName: Tsuyoshi means [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast strong]].
* OlderSidekick: To Kintou and Lucille. He's a trustworthy SecretKeeper while also being TheBrute.
* StealthMentor: [[spoiler:As part of Lucille's plans to lure the allied teams in the wrong place, he attacks Seino and Team Konryuu to make his point. Turns out his intent was to have Seino safe by driving him to the wrong place.]]
* WorldsStrongestMan: Strives to be this.

* ActionGirl: Tries to avoid looking like one.
* AmbiguouslyEvil: [[spoiler:She was good all along.]]
* {{Bifauxnen}}: She looks slightly male, especially in her clothing style, but her gender never is ambiguous since she makes it clear she's a "pretty girl".
* CombatPragmatist: Relies on her looks to be mistaken for "just a pretty girl".
* {{Crossdresser}}: She dresses like a PrettyBoy.
* DanceBattler: Some of her kicks resemble dance.
* DrivenToSuicide: [[spoiler:When Mashin possesses her and she regains consciousness. Fails because [[ICannotSelfTerminate she can't kill herself due to Mashin's remnants of will stopping her]], so [[SuicideByCop it takes Kiyoshi diving both into the Stream to end Mashin's existence.]]]]
* FrenchJerk: She lived her first eleven years in France, and can be jerkish. [[LampshadeHanging She notes that the Japanese are much nicer than the French...]] except for her grandfather.
* HairFlip: A frequent taunt of hers.
* HidingBehindYourBangs: Her hair hides one of her eyes, highlighting her deceptive nature.
* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:Double subversion, can even count as zig-zagged if we take more into account. She was supposedly a goner after Tenko and Miki trapped her inside a dimensional fissure within another dimensional fissure. Though, Miki's death and Tenko's lack of proficiency means Lucille was able to escape being trapped forever. She still gets possessed by Mashin in the following arc, but her will still gets through to a maddened Kiyoshi who can't quite strangle her enough. She finally dies when he dives into the Stream with her.]]
* LongLostRelative: Was this to Mashin, because she has lived her eleven first years in a French orphanage.
* ObfuscatingStupidity: She has a lot of narcissistic manners for her to overplay, in order to hide her HiddenDepths.
** [[spoiler:Also, she manipulated Team Ougoku into distrust, doing the most difficult part of the work when it came to drawing the teams to utter failure.]]
* SmugSnake: Behaves like this, though she's actually a SmugSuper.
* TechnicolorFire: Her fire is neon green.
* {{Troll}}: Notably, she underlines Akemi's failure to realize that [[spoiler:she got fooled by an impersonator of her own brother.]]
* TurnedAgainstTheirMasters: [[spoiler:She turned against Mashin just before her apparition. In fact, she kickstarted a plot involving half of the cast, in order to force Mashin to reveal himself.]]

* AbsurdlyYouthfulMother: She's 39, and even though she took in Tsuyoshi like an adoptive son, she looks nowhere near her age.
* ActionGirl: Her weight is all muscle.
* AffablyEvil: She's usually civil and polite, but she's also fond of DisproportionateRetribution and CoolAndUnusualPunishment.
* ArmsDealer: And she knows what she does enough to get approached by Ringoto.
* ArtificialLimbs: Her right arm is a prosthetic.
* AudibleSharpness: When using magic to make slashing HardLight.
* BadassBookworm: She spends some of her free time reading.
* BadassInANiceSuit: Dresses like her wealth allows for, and very strong.
* BigFancyHouse: How about a giant aircraft as a home? Yes, the Silverwing Tour is her organizing a tournament in her home.
* BloodKnight: She likes making use of her PowerCopying, but enjoys the battling itself.
* CloudCuckooLander: Somewhat literally, but living airborne alone qualifies her as eccentric.
* CoolShip: Her tournament is organized in a giant airship.
* DeadpanSnarker: She has her moments.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: [[spoiler:She isn't happy to hear about Miki abusing her good PR for shady deeds, and even less about her effectively killing Lucille. Her desire for revenge gives her a second wind and she gets back at Miki, dying in the fight but denying Miki a way out of her crashing airship, killing her and saving Lucille in the process.]]
* ForTheLulz: Her reasons. Though she knows Operation G is about enhancements, so she thinks about replacing her right arm prosthesis as a bonus she can get.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: She has a pretty ugly scar under her chest. She takes care of hiding it.
* HappilyAdopted: She has been adopted by Tatsuya when she was 7, and their relationship only went south when Tatsuya wanted real progeny.
** Same applies to Tsuyoshi as her somewhat-adopted son, since she takes him in when he needs.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She usually fights when it's about killing off or seriously dissuading someone, so many are weirded out by the fact that outside a fight (or business) she's actually affable and helpful, as Team Magou can attest.
* KamehameHadoken: She can fire big [[EnergyBall energy balls]]. ''Titan Drill'' isn't named so for nothing.
* KungFuClairvoyance: Has a sensory ability she acquired by training.
* LightningBruiser: Leans toward GlassCannon, usually. But in comparison to the other girls, she is definitely this as she has the build of a tall man.
* {{Narcissist}}
* NoGuyWantsAnAmazon: She alludes to it as the reason she's alone, but she chose to commit to increasing her fighting ability by all means necessary.
* {{Omniglot}}: Speaks proficiently at least four languages (English, German, Chinese and Japanese).
* PlayingWithFire: Her ''Tactical Lance'' is a fiery projectile. But its upgrade LimitBreak, ''[[ThisIsADrill Titan Drill]]'' actually isn't on fire.
* PoisonedWeapons: She copied a magic skill of poisoning from Niki who himself learned it. [[spoiler:Comes in handy to paralyse Miki and keep her in place for the airship crash to kill her.]]
* PowerCopying: Holds some gift that allows her to do this. Known copy victims are Niki (poisoned hands), Kintou (slashing HardLight), and Tatsuya (lightning).
* RaisedByDudes: She was raised by Tatsuya alone.
* RedBaron: Nicknamed "Silvertongue", when alluding to her business practices, and her affinity for silver.
* SlouchOfVillainy
* SpiritedCompetitor: She is skirting the line with BloodKnight.
* StatuesqueStunner: At 5'10", she's the tallest in the setting tied with Akemi. Unlike her, Ginshi is very muscular.

[[spoiler:Since he feels like the entire world is lacking anything moral, he plans God's descent onto this world, by creating a powerful emissary nobody will ever be able to contradict. That is [[TitleDrop Operation G]] in a nutshell.]]
!!!Tropes associated with Ringoto:
* AffablyEvil: Ruthless and zealous, but polite and [[WellIntentionedExtremist well-intentioned]].
* BadassBookworm
* BadassPreacher: So much that he's willing to create a living vessel for God.
* BaddieFlattery: He never underestimates anybody, and cites their good points as reasons for him to be serious, even though the praise is not hypocritical at all.
* BlowYouAway: His primary means of attack is RazorWind.
* FlashStep
* GratuitousEnglish
* TheHeavy: He's the one in charge of Operation G, and as such the one all team supervisors are protecting.
* KickTheDog: Oh so majorly. [[spoiler:Once Operation G is over, he unceremoniously leaves everyone behind without the slightest care. When Seino and Gilberto call him out on not even paying them for their trouble, he kills them. When he meets Torou face-to-face, he kills him. When Kintou and Setsuna call him out on that, he sics Eiko on them, killing Kintou in the process. Later, when Eiko refuses to keep fighting (because she fell for Shakurou and broke out of her passive brainwashing), he forces her to give him her power and throws her into the Stream.]]
* ProtagonistCenteredMorality: He considers himself a hero and his morals don't take others into account. [[spoiler:After Eiko refuses to fight, his case becomes obvious, as he uses a brainwashing spell to force her to give him all her power before he throws her into the Stream. As Fuushi points out, he was so self-centered, he '''put a brainwashing spell on God'''.]]
%%* RazorWind
* VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler:Once Eiko starts to disobey him and refuses to fight Team Kokujin, who in turn refuses to fight her.]]

--> An old half-Japanese half-French scientist involved with dubious affairs regarding drugs and doping, he got chastised and expelled by the martial arts competitive field. He formed a group of scientists as crazy as he is, keeping his experiments off of the eyes of those who despised him for that. He planned his vengeance in secret, aiming to take back his place and write any taboo off of the fighting field so he can take his place back. [[spoiler:Also, he secretly planned for over 40 years to become God, sowing seeds of corruption by taking away parts of his soul to corrupt other people, to take the souls back when they'll have grown with the persons he infected and become a God. This makes him responsible for the ''Soul of the Beast''.]]
!!!Tropes associated with Mashin:
* AGodAmI: His reason to participate in the project was so he could say this. [[spoiler:He actually becomes a PhysicalGod to a degree, but not enough to stop everyone.]]
* ClippedWingAngel: [[spoiler:Once his physical body is destroyed, he possesses Lucille. His Lucille-possessing form is much less powerful than his previous PhysicalGod form, and even though it does beat several people to the dust, it cannot strike any killing blow. It just takes Kiyoshi to erase him.]]
* DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: [[spoiler:He ascends to almost God levels, is the only one to use his Ultimate in canon, and that attack kills the entire Team Mugen in one shot. Yet no more than nine persons were necessary to not only kill him, but erase him from existence altogether.]]
* [[spoiler:EvilerThanThou: Pulls this on Ringoto, revealing he was "destined" to become the God Ringoto longed for, only doing so required him to reclaim the portions of his soul in several people's blood by having them sacrifice themselves for him. Turns out Ringoto was one of the victims.]]
* {{Immortality}}: His objective. [[spoiler:He acquired Type 1, but got his body destroyed. [[OurSoulsAreDifferent His soul]] managed to possess Lucille, who in fact [[ClippedWingAngel held him back]] for him to be killed off.]]
* LackOfEmpathy: [[BadBoss He chastises Tang on being "bad at even recruitment".]] Note that Tang is sick and close to death should his condition get worse. And [[{{Hypocrite}} Mashin himself is doing absolutely nothing.]]
** JerkassHasAPoint: Tang was utterly fooled when he tried recruiting Chouji, since he didn't know that [[spoiler:Niki was impersonating Chouji.]]
* PragmaticVillainy: To some degree, since he only acts for his own advantage.
* [[spoiler:PsychicAssistedSuicide: Tries it on eight persons simultaneously. It works on four of them, and he does manage to kill the four others later anyway.]]
* SurroundedByIdiots: What he says he is. Ringoto muses internally that Mashin must like complaining.
* TheUnfettered: Mashin is driven by self-interest and has no care for other people's reactions.
* VillainBall: [[spoiler:He chooses the wrong moment to kill Ringoto [[note]]Ringoto was doing pretty well, after all... He's still justified by the fact that Ringoto had the upper hand on Team Kokujin, a major component of his PsychicAssistedSuicide-aided ascension to godhood.[[/note]].]]
* YoungerThanTheyLook: Abused aesthetic surgery to look young at age 66.
* YourSoulIsMine: He steals the souls of no less than eight persons, four by PsychicAssistedSuicide, four by ''Soul Eater'' because the former method didn't work. This kills all of them off permanently.

* Height: 173 cm

* Likes: Didn't decide on anything yet
* Dislikes: Houka
]
--> A clone of Houka that Mashin whips out to ensure his escape along with Ringoto. She doesn't reason much, and attacks everyone on sight, especially Houka.
!!!Tropes associated with Houka-2:
* AxCrazy: Houka-2 is obviously violent.
* BerserkButton: Her profile says it: "Dislikes: Houka".
** Several attack names of hers tell even more: ''Oni Danzai'' (''Demon, Guilty!''), ''Houkabarai'' (''Houka-exorcising''), and ''Houka no Shittsuitou'' (''Houka's Descending Cry'') engrave her dislike of Houka in stone, since it's like her attacks were designed to kill Houka. Houka eventually dies by ''Houkabarai''.
* BloodKnight
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: She is born brainwashed, and was so during her first fight. She was then abandoned. Not knowing what to do, BrainwashResidue ensued and she found her way back to Ringoto, Mashin, and Eiko. Even though she made a friend of Eiko, Ringoto shooed her off, and Mashin didn't care the slightest bit. This [[VillainousBreakdown breaks everything in her]], except her berserk rage towards Houka.
* DivergentCharacterEvolution: From the start. Mashin gave her genetic material belonging to other people like [[PayEvilUntoEvil Fuushi]] and [[HotBlooded Karyu]] on top of Houka's.
* EvilKnockoff
* ExpendableClone: She's treated as such by Mashin, her creator, and Ringoto doesn't even spare a thought — he even denies her the right to talk to the only person who could understand her: Eiko. Houka-2 never lets go of the feeling of betrayal even though she dies furthering their goals, though at that point she doesn't care.
* GoroawaseNumber: Her attack codes. Most mean nothing, are pronounced wrong, or result in GratuitousEnglish.
* KnightOfCerebus: She first appears to stall for Ringoto and Mashin's escape. This means [[TheBadGuysWin Operation G is a success]], and since Mashin gets out, Team Magou's machinations were for naught. She's also the first to talk about killing someone, and even though she's not the first to succeed and only gets a MutualKill, her arrival shifted the tone to dark.
* NeverSayDie: She's the one to break the trope. Even referenced in her ''Type 504 - Mureishi / Hitokiri no Honoo'' (Spiritless Death / Killing Flame) attack.
* NietzscheWannabe: After she gets rejected by Mashin, she just wants to destroy the world. Her "plan" after killing Houka was to destroy the Stream, in hopes of blowing up the whole world with it.
* PlayingWithFire: Same as normal Houka.
** PyroManiac: Different personality.
* PowersAsPrograms: Even though she's not a robot, her attacks have a codified name. [[labelnote:Example:]]Type [number] - GoroawaseNumber / [attack's name][[/labelnote]]
** ReadingsAreOffTheScale: Her unique moves' numbers are in the single digites, not counting decimals. Her special moves' numbers are usually in the triple-digits, but then her LimitBreak attacks are in the five-digit scale (82879 for ''Anti-Houka Rising'' and 23564 for ''Houkabarai''). Her third super is Type 88888888.
*** Spoofed with her Ultimate: ''Type 007 - Marumaruna / Houka no Shittsuitou'', where she references James Bond and her desire to [[NietzscheWannabe burn everything to nothingness]], but the number isn't higher than the other attacks.
* RedEyesTakeWarning
* ShadowArchetype: [[CaptainObvious Evidence is evidence.]]

--> The supposed "God" whose existence means the success of [[TitleDrop Operation G]]. Part-magical entity, part-human and part-machine, detaining battle data recorded by Tang, permanently on various self-enhancement drugs composed by Natsuki, a nigh-perfect magical energy flow based on Niki's theory, and ability to use and make all kinds of weapons Ginshi recorded in her database make her the "perfect being" Ringoto longed for.\\
Her mentality and personality, though, isn't quite what he expected. She is not only mellow, but quiet and [[ProHumanTranshuman human-loving]]. Ringoto then remedies to this by [[BrainwashedAndCrazy forcibly controlling her]].
!!!Tropes associated with Eiko:
* ArtificialHuman: Though she looks much like a RobotGirl.
%%* BlueOni: To Houka-2's Red.
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Her second appearance. At her first, she was just a playful girl walking at Ringoto's side like a child, and once she snapped out, she started crying, refusing to fight, and calling out Ringoto for making her kill people.
* {{BFS}}: Drops one made of solid dark magic, in one of her [[LimitBreak Super moves]], ''Extinction Sword''.
** ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: Poor Tatsuya.
* MassOhCrap: She kills off both [[TheDreaded Hakkou]] [[AnyoneCanDie and]] [[MadeOfIron Tatsuya]] in less than ten minutes. She then easily slays Tae-yeong.
* MeaningfulName: It means "shadow child", referencing how she is just a doll obeying Ringoto and never getting the opportunity to express herself in the spotlight.
%%* StormOfBlades: When she isn't dropping BFS's.
* ToWinWithoutFighting: How she's defeated. She breaks through her brainwashing by simply refusing to hurt Shakurou.
