* KillAndReplace: Implied. [[spoiler: Upon his death after failing to assassinate Kento, the police learn from Takagi's parents that this guy isn't him. The real Takagi was a high-school runaway who was estranged from his family and then dropped off the grid 12 years ago, with this guy assuming his name and getting a legit PhD in Psychological Therapy. The real Takagi is presumed dead.]]

* ForWantOfANail: Her plans could have worked, if only she wasn't so needlessly cruel. Kento has shown in Volzard that he sees no problem with TrainingFromHell, as long as he gets words of praise and a head-pat every now and then. In fact, the manga shows him clearly infatuated with Princess Camilla the moment they met, and if she had been harsh but fair, would still worship the ground she walked on, no matter how grueling his fate. Instead, she just summarily declared him [[TraumaButton "useless"]] and sent him off to die in agony, alone and forgotten, earning his undying grudge. Then after that, treating the rest of his class extremely unfairly. Even if she somehow managed to meet all their repatriation demands, there's no way Kento's going to let that go.

* OverprotectiveDad: Justified. Seraphim has a body that looks like she's 12, this is a world full of dangerous monsters, and there's a huge war going on in the country's west, and they have to go to war themselves to secure the iron they need, since the kingdom of Rosenberg outright outlawed doing trade in iron with them.

* BoyfriendBlockingDad: To an insane degree, that makes Klaus and Constant look downright reasonable by comparison. [[spoiler: Despite his daughter being only three-years-old, living in Japan, and having absolutely no contact with Kent, Takagi is absolutely convinced that Kento is out to get her to add to his harem, because he's just that much of a DrunkWithPower skirt-chasing playboy.]]

* ToughLeaderFacade: Deconstructed. Her early brutality was spurred in large part by the fact that she was emotionally, mentally, and politically cornered and couldn't afford to show weakness nor mercy. This has caused her to be needlessly cruel to the students she summoned, treating them as slaves and monkeys, earning their eternal ire. The fact that she is actually a good and gentle woman doesn't come out until hundreds of chapters and several in-universe months '''after''' Kento has rescued the rest of his class, but by then the interest on her karmic debt makes it near impossible to ever redeem herself.

** Camilla-- Klaus ''orders'' him to marry her in front of the other four, because Volzard needs options in the event the city gets cut off by monster stampede and Lastock of Rosenberg is now the closest city. They're not exactly ''thrilled'' with it, but they're not going to force Kent to apologize this time because it's absolutely necessary.

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Chapter 685 reveals that one of the many unintended consequences resulting from his many, many heroic acts and accomplishments is that adventurers his age see it and go "If Kent can do all that at my age, I can do it too" and try to emulate him, while lacking the proper skill, talent, power, and experience. The number of teen adventurers meeting an untimely death as a result is unprecedented.

* {{Hypocrite}}: He near constantly misrepresent Kent to anybody who will listen, and refuses to own up to it when he gets called out on it, but whenever Kent points out something about him that's less than flattering, especially if it's true, he angrily cries out "slander, defamation, pay me X-hundred-million-yen" and is flummoxed that his protests are brushed off.

Added DiffLines:

* BullyingADragon: When he and Galik are down on their luck, facing a massive debt, as a result of their client dismissing them from duty while their escort mission was still underway, to then lay the blame for the cargo being stolen at their feet, he bumps into Kent flirting with Manon, after just completing a very high-paying nominated quest. Envious and jealous, he makes a ShameIfSomethingHappened threat against Manon and then schemes with Galik to sell the poor girl into slavery to try and clear their debts, even after Kent promised to retaliate. For his part, Gilik points out that while Kent is JustAKid, his genus are the real deal, and there could be kobolds in the shadows listening to them, even in a dilapidated warehouse they picked at random. Fortunately, their debts are cleared when Kent, doing an unrelated mission, finds the stolen loot and turns it in to the guild for a handsome "finders fee."
* TheSvengali: He mentors young adventurers, genuinely wanting them to succeed, so he can then ride their coat-tails and suck up the sweet juice of their successes.

** Downgrades to ChasteHero Downplayed later on after his five official love interests insist on having sex with him, and he obliges, but he pointedly refuses and flees from any other woman who throws herself at him. He still admires pretty women, but he'd rather not give his four official wives reason to be mad at him.

* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: When Gilik winds up being pursued by another girl, one he was forced to take on as an apprentice, Muell doesn't bear any hard feelings. In fact, she encourages them hooking up and gives them her blessings.


Added DiffLines:

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He's rude, crude, grumpy, needlessly antagonistic and almost always very unpleasant, but he rescues some fledgling adventurers in trouble purely for its own sake, at terrible risk to his own reputation, mentors them correctly when he's press-ganged into it, and winds up sharing a bed with one of his female apprentices, at her insistence, because deep down, he does genuinely care.
* KavorkaMan: He's rude, crude, unpleasant, perpetually poor, and not exactly handsome, but he does manage to win over two love interests, sequentially, with the former cheering on the latter.
* LikeBrotherAndSister: The relationship between him and Muell eventually downgrades from a romantic pursuit to a more familial one. Neither of them are bothered by it.

[[folder: Kaizawa]]

One
of a group Kent's first rescues from Lastock. She is initially one of delinquents before the mass-summoning event, those entitled teens who blows all her living expenses right away and then comes back, hands out, begging for more, but she appears soon redeems herself by working at Flavia's, a local tailor, and introducing modern fashion to be like the vast majority who act as if nothing Kento does for them is ever good enough, but she's surprisingly very, very supportive of him when she thinks nobody is watching.Volzard.


Added DiffLines:

* TheFashionista: She's an excellent tailor, and spends her free time designing new outfits to sell at Flavia's.
* GoneHorriblyRight: Downplayed. Nervous about her idea of introducing a swimming pool not taking off, she strong-arms Kent and his four wives to advertise it by showing up in swimsuits she provided. '''The First Day''' the garrison had to cut off admission because too many people wanted to come in at once.
* InventorOfTheMundane: In addition to designing new and interesting garments for Flavia's shop to sell, she comes up with the idea of introducing the concept of a swimming pool to Klaus, both for the public and for the garrison to use in the soldier's training regiment on hot summer days. Klaus happily agrees, if for no other reason than to get men and women to meet and hopefully increase the local birth rate, and children are really, really needed there.

Saiyoniji's closest friend. She initially blames Kent for failing to rescue Saionji from her suicide attempt, but when she gets back to Japan, she quickly becomes a DeathSeeker as her friend's parents, the media, and all her so-called friends take out unjust criticism against her. She hooks up with a very, very convincing sicko online who promises her a mutual suicide pact but once he's got her captive, tortures her to a state of total BodyHorror instead.

Added DiffLines:

* ChickMagnet: Downplayed. He's not quite as famous and wealthy as Kent, and he's known for being rather stoic, but he's also highly regarded by women because he's diligent, honest, wise and faithful. He tends to be targeted romantically, but not to the point that he has to fend them off with a stick.


Added DiffLines:

* AbhorrentAdmirer: To women everywhere. Their reputation as skirt-chasers who will pester pretty much anything in a skirt and inability to gather savings, instead choosing to peruse brothels at their earliest convenience, and being horrible in the sack, has so alienated the women of Volzard that even the brothels in question shut their doors on them.


Added DiffLines:

* TheyJustDontGetIt: NO matter who tells them that they need to stop blowing all their money on prostitutes, start treating women as people, instead of chasing them around like their gonads are going to catch fire if they don't get laid, and start saving for the future if they want to improve their reputation and attractiveness, they simply refuse to let it register. It's only when the brothels ban them that it finally '''starts''' to sink in.

* RunningGag: Played for drama. Apparently, even the heavens conspire to keep her from moving in with Kent and enjoying a HappilyMarried life.
** Her attempts to atone and reconcile with Japan were set back by a SpitefulSuicide.
** Kent was nearly beheaded because whoever was in charge of choosing the Japanese staff to go over was easily bought.
** Diethelm has to go in her place to deliver an official apology because the meeting was targeted by war-mongering terrorists from Japan's side.
** Camilla has to repeatedly delay her personal transit because remnants of Havre's faction are still launching terrorist attacks with suicide bombers. Some of them even targeting fellow bride Seraphima's caravan, leaving Kent no choice but to end the problem at its source, hitting the terrorists with their own explosives, wiping them out.
** Nobles in her own country keep sending knight "inspections" at Kent to try and find fault because they think they're "more worthy" to be wed to Camila rather than some upstart commoner, until the knights in question come back saying "yeah. Don't piss-off the kid, as he not only has a mansion better than our castle, but he's got enough martial force to trample our country flat if he wants, and can do it easy!"
** Hostile factions in nearby countries keep stirring up problems that would greatly destabilize Volzard, Barshania, or Roseberg if left alone, so Kent has to go deal with them.
** [[spoiler: An extinction level asteroid is on collision course with Earth, and Kent had to deal with that.]]
** '''A typhoon''' floods out Lastock...
