* PostFinalBoss: After gradually picking off the rest of the factions through tactical shenanigans, the FinalBoss at the climax of the story ends up being a scrap with [[spoiler: King Prilbus]] on the, the nearest thing to a BigBad by that point, on the bridge of the Wurst, plus a simultaneous skirmish with a bunch of UFTP guards on the Fang of Frangus in their last-ditch attempt to prevent the Gunner Channel reaching their InstantWinCondition of dispersing Gnosis. However, after the Gunner Channel are victorious, [[spoiler: King Prilbus]] is dead and UFTP have surrendered, Gust remains stupid enough to try to continue the fight on his own, only to immediately have his entire ship obliterated by a particularly good turn from the crew of the Wurst.

* BadBoss: He's harshly critical of his crew while hardly fulfilling his role as the pilot, and he's awful at being a captain, so much that Margaret taking control of the ship's administration manages to get the crew out of poverty in one day by actually seizing opportunities.

** Barry, Sidney, and Riva are all Level 3, which is normal, as their class abilities have been part of them since their actual births, especially for Barry and Sid who were designed for combat. However, they are only

* DidntThinkThisThrough: [[spoiler: They planned to let Griivarr get Gnosis back after they captured Zortch, confident that they could buy them out and get Gnosis' powers for them. Lucienne is apparently the only one of the higher-ups

* BrainsVsBrawn: The Gunner Channel, for the most part, is quite clever, with most of them having a Intelligence score of 19 or higher, while Riva and Barry have demonstrated shrewdness and guile for the former and knowledge of battlefield tactics for the latter. Meanwhile, most of the villains they face are, on some level, StupidEvil, but they are massively powerful and dispose of colossal resources. In fact, the most intelligent foe our heroes face, Lucienne Rex, is the villain who can hurt them physically the least, due to her lack of influence compared to the high executives of Crown And Scepter.

* TokenGoodTeammate: He's nice, friendly, and encouraging, even trying to be of help with [[{{Jerkass}} Norman]], and he's usually the first to object for the crew's more morally grey opportunities for cash. He's also the only one whose backstory involved genuinely heroic actions.

* HiddenAgendaVillain: [[spoiler:She informed Margaret of Natalia Cicero Connie Lee Carter Bajar's incoming attack, and she's seemingly interested in the Princeps and Gnosis despite the fact that Crown and Scepter and UFTP aren't, according to Gnosis themself, so while she's still the Gunner Channel's most dangerous foe, her true goal is still a mystery.]]

* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: However, [[spoiler: the Gunner Channel broadcasts evidence of Gus's crimes during the finale. The Amercadian fleet dishonorably discharges him on the spot, leaving him to fend for himself. A newly-emboldened Norm rams the Wurst into his ship, and he dies in disgrace.]]

* PragmaticVillainy: [[spoiler: He stops attacking the Wurst and sets his fleet's sights on UFTP ships not out of the goodwill of his heart, but because Margaret revealed their plans to buy out Grivarr after the cerebroslug nobility all die in the Great Emhatchening.]]

* GoodAllAlong: [[spoiler: While the person who slaughtered the Barry Battalion is definitely evil, and it was his body who committed the deed, Barry Nyne himself had no part in this, as he was cerebro-slugged shortly before.]]

* ImprobableWeaponUser: He gets a pair of gun boots that only shoot downwards, no matter the direction at which they're angled, which he can use effectively due to his natural agility and his jetpack, [[spoiler: as he demonstrates with brutal efficiency on Sheriff Codge.]]
* JetPack: He steals one from [[spoiler:Hogg Cobb during their escape from Rec 97]].

* OopNorth: Siobhan plays them as having a Northern English accent, specifically [[UsefulNotes/FootballPopMusicAndFlatCaps Mancunian]].

* {{Catchphrase}}: "My name is Norman 'Skip' Takamori" and "Right on", which are both holdovers from when Skip was learning how to speak using the original Takamori's speech functions. ("Right on" was originally an imitation of Barry Syx). He continues to say them as a VerbalTic, even after he becomes more capable of coherent and articulate speech.

* InformedSpecies: {{Parodied|Trope}}. Everyone calls her a dog and treats her like a dog, even though she acts very differently, and is straight-up not like a real animal.

* InformedSpecies[=/=]IAmNotWeasel: {{Parodied|Trope}}. Everyone calls her a dog and treats her like a dog, even though she acts very differently, and is straight-up not like a real animal.

* BigDamnHeroes: [[spoiler: As the odds for the Wurst have never looked so dire, she answers their U4F distress call and comes to help them, since they payed their dues for the union.]]

** [[spoiler: Skip remains at Level 2, because he's very rusty at actually piloting a body, he's much more competent at being an operative than Norman.]]

* TrueCompanions: While they were never close during their initial stint with Norman, [[spoiler: Skip's nicer personality]] and Margaret's kind leadership allowed to form a tight-knit group really quickly, as they all wanted to be pals before.

* OopNorth: Siobhan plays them as having a Northern English accent, specifically [[UsefulNotes/{{Manchester}} Mancunian]].

* CallingTheOldManOut: [[spoiler: When King Prilbus explains him the purpose of the Great Emhatchening, he digs deeper and as he learns that he will survive while every other slug will die, he calls him out on wanting to save his skin while he expects everyone else tp give their life for the plan.]]
* DefectorFromDecadence: [[spoiler: He didn't defect because of the House of Frangus' plans to take over the galaxy, but when he learns about it, he denounces it openly and vehemently.]]

* EnfantTerrible: Eight years old and they're already accomplished thieves, mercenaries, and majority shareholders in one of the biggest MLM schemes in the galaxy. Its also implied that they raided an alien weapons foundry in the ''center of a black hole''. Their entire organization holds this reputation as well.

* ParasitesAreEvil: Averted. While the main reason that his taking over Norman is not challenged is the general amorality of the world of Starstruck and the fact that Norman did not endear himself to anyone, quite the opposite, Skip is not portrayed as evil.
