Fanfic / Super Robot Wars High

Go To

Super Robot Wars High is a fanfic written by Rpgingmaster

According to the author, this series is basically a massive attempt to roll as many Super Robot Wars games and related mecha series as possible into one series, and is also something of a parody of Super Robot Wars style plots done High School AU style yet in a Super Robot Wars style universe, is basically a massive distillation of every SRW property that can be possibly shoved into one continuity.

    Series Represented (so far) 
Note: All series included within have some connection to Super Robot Wars or related works by Banpresto in some fashion. Also included are works related to the series that have debuted in the games.

Warning: Unmarked spoilers ahead!

Provides Examples Of:

  • Alternate Universe: Crossed with Alternate History. At first, the universe of the series was that of Super Robot Wars Alpha crossed with Super Robot Wars Z with a High School AU premise, but then we find out that The Edel Bernal from the original Super Robot Wars Z universe almost died after fighting ZEUTH, barely managed to escape to this fanfic universe in a dying state, and what was left of him was reconstituted by Fate to be his personal troubleshooter in cleaning up the events of the SRW High-verse Taichi and making sure nothing would interfere with his plans to build up the ultimate team of badasses to take any threat Fate, Irui Gan Eden or the Ide couldn't take on until they were ready. Before this, the history of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann was changed by Kamina defying Fate successfully, which had the ripple effect of Fate having The Edel Bernal deliberately changing history from how it unfolded in the universes parallel to the SRW High-verse.
  • A.I. Is a Crapshoot - Completely and/or semi sentient AI's are regarded with severe distrust in this universe. Albeit somewhat justified, it is revealed the fear of AI's has been artificially inflated, and in one ironic instance, an AI turns on its creator because said creator wanted it to do evil, while the AI in question wanted to be good.
  • Anti-Villain - Kackrinon Cacooler is probably the nicest Titan on the team, aside from being saddled with a case of Lawful Neutral that makes him side with a Lawful Evil organization, but mostly because Jerid Mesa, whom he considers a little brother, is on the same team. Otherwise, he's actually a somewhat decent human being when he's not a Punch-Clock Villain.
  • Apocalypse How - Earth went through Class 0-2 more than once during and before the Black History, with the threat of a Class 5 and 6 during the worst parts, and the universe as a whole during the Taichi nearly suffered an X-4, and up until the Anti-Spirals were confirmed dead, the constant threat of being part of an X-5 was a constant problem.
  • Big Good - Kamille Bidan is the leader of Londo Bell. In a larger sense, Bright Noah serves this purpose for the whole school. Above him is Laker Randolph for the EFA, Maier V. Branstein for the UCC, the Alpha Numbers for the galaxy, and, ironically enough, The Akashic Records\Fate (with The Edel Bernal as his front man) FOR THE UNIVERSE!
  • Bright Slap - Given by Bright himself to Vindel Mauser and General Oka in Episode 2. Jamil Neate gives Garrod the Falcon PAWWWNNNCHHH!!!! version of this in Episode 43.
    • Ironically, Bright himself got two of these done to him before he became known for them.
  • Brother–Sister Incest: Three cases so far involving Knight Valentine, Rom Stoll, and Kazuma Ardygun. In all of them, each of them have feelings for their sisters beyond that of family, and all three are aware of this and want to prevent themselves from acting on those feelings, and have even founded a support group to avert this trope, with varying degrees of success.
    • As of Episode 60, it's revealed the girls formed their own support group, and they decided to defuse most of the focal points of this trope for the same reasons as their brothers.
  • Bunny-Ears Lawyer - Klein Sandman and Gen Fudou are regarded as awesome yet very, very weird.
  • Butt-Monkey - The Titans in general, but specific examples include Yazan Gable. He got his ass kicked every other day, it seems.
  • Char Clone - Played straight in that all of them, including the original, show up, but parodied in that Char is annoyed that his Quattro Bajina look is copied by Elzam.
  • Chastity Couple - Kira Yamato and Lacus Clyne are almost entirely platonic in their relationship, by mutual choice.
  • Conversational Troping - Done by The Edel Bernal on occasion, not to mention a few other characters, but he does it the most.
  • Curb-Stomp Battle- What Sanger and Wodan gave everything Egret Fehu threw at them.
  • Damaged Soul - The Edel Bernal looks like a God-Mode Sue but he's a Damaged Soul who's only being kept alive by The Akashic Records in exchange for killing every bastard he can find, and if he doesn't do it, The Akashic Records will yank away the power sustaining the remnants of his soul, leaving him to disappear from existence. He also has no guarantee he can recover from physical death anymore, so death is a very real fear for him.
  • Dare to Be Badass - The Dai Gurren Brigade doing this trope not only achieved all the awesome they did in canon, it also convinced Fate to do everything in its power to encourage the awesome of the Super Robot Wars cast!
  • Divide and Conquer - The Romafeller Foundation's plan to screw over the Sanc Kingdom amounted to this. To their credit, it partially succeeded.
  • Dropped a Bridge on Him - Both Yuna AND his uncle had a GOUF dropped on them.
  • Elaborate University High - It's described as being the size of a medium sized city, has a ton of facilities that most gigantic real world high school-college fusions wouldn't have justified, as it also doubles a massive cross cultural embassy and a secret training ground for the majority of the members of Project Aegis, and provides classes on LOTS of topics, though they specialize in engineering, cultural, and applied sciences which actually is to the benefit of Project Aegis.
  • Goggles Do Nothing - Subverted for Basque Ohm. They hide disfiguring injury scars around his eye sockets.
  • Info Dump - Somewhat justified, as the story wouldn't make as much sense without the details.
  • In Spite of a Nail - Though many events Of Evangelion are blatantly averted, such as Second Impact, many of them wind up happening with the same end results regardless of the altered circumstances such as Asuka's mother going crazy after EVA unit 02 test.
  • Intrepid Reporter - What Kai Shiden became after leaving the EFA, and compared to the military, he rather enjoys this job.
  • Improbable Age - Discussed and justified. Due to a massive series of bloodshed and conflict 50 years prior to the founding The Federation and the arrival of the Zentradi, the age limit on lots of things like the military, drinking, and sex was drastically lowered to compensate for the lowered population.
  • Motherly Scientist - Lemon Browning is the "they are like family" version to the W-Numbers. So much so at least two of her creations are not only willing to die for her, but also have a crush on her.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: A reaction had by several characters, most notably Chronocle Asher after he realizes what he helped Katejina Loos turn into.
  • Necessarily Evil Laker Randolph, because he works with The Edel Bernal, and even though he's a good guy, he's not averse to bloodshed (of Asshole Victims) to secure peace for the Earth Federation and the Alpha Numbers. However, as a counterbalance, he shows frequent disgust and horror at his partner's For the Evulz obsessions.
  • Sociopathic Hero - The Getter Robo characters are actually described as such.
    • Specifically, The Edel Bernal is one in this universe, albeit as a Type V Anti-Hero. In fact, the cause he serves is good aka: saving the universe, but he often accomplishes this in the most sadistic, For the Evulz manner possible.
  • Superhero School: It's secretly the Project Aegis training ground for the heroes of SRW just in case The Edel Bernal cannot fulfill Fate's will and prevent another war like the Taichi.
  • Student Council President: Milly Ashford is one for the Cultural Activities committee and Treize Khusrenada is one for OZ (the rich kids club).
  • Taking You with Me: How the A.I. 1 Core decides to settle things with Eldy Mitte after she kills its human friend Albero Est.
  • Thanatos Gambit - Shiva Volkruss and Luozuol had one going to screw over La Gias and allow Volkruss to keep reviving even after his body was destroyed. This was thwarted when Shu Shirakawa decides to Take a Third Option and exploits a loophole.
  • "The Reason You Suck" Speech - Done to Lubikka Hakkener by The Edel Bernal, who basically tells him he's a moron for leaving behind so many angry people in his days of bloodshed, and that as a consequence, he's going to kill him for his Genre Blindness.
  • Title Drop - Done a lot, usually to emphasize the theme of the episode or episode segment.
  • Token Evil Teammate - The Edel Bernal even refers to himself as one for the good guys in Episode 49.
