* OutGambitted: In her fights against Ooarai and Anzio, the major component of her defeat is that she's overestimating her tanks' capability to do her LightningBruiser strategy and underestimating her opponents ability to not see her strategy coming. It's especially egregious in the National against Anzio; she basically tries to win a fight of speed against a famed FragileSpeedster, allowing Anchovy to flank Eclair's slower flag tank that got left behind from chasing her CV-33 distraction with all three of her Semovente.

* BreakTheHaughty: She came to take over the position of Maginot squadron commander because she thought that she could do a better job at commanding the team. She was a [[SeriousBusiness Shiho]]'s fangirl and it shows. Only after she became the commander, she realized the school politic that caused her predecessor to bend over backward to the populist decision, approximately ''half'' of Maginot tankery team quit to spite her, she started to develop a stomach ulcer badly enough that she's on the med, and she's seen in the present less a gung-ho person than the time when she publicly challenged Madeline for a duel.

* HumiliationConga: Even discounting the events that marred her ascension as a commander, in the middle of the battle against Ooarai, she's seen by her team passing out from her stomachache after [[StressVomit vomiting all over her uniform]].
* KlingonPromotion: A non-fatal version of this; she won the position of squadron commander by challenging the previous commander in a duel. Also deconstructed; just because Madeline approved the duel's conditions, doesn't mean that the ''other members of the team'' would. Madeline is such a beloved commander in Maginot (even Eclair herself looks up to Madeline), that when Eclair wrestled power from her, the senior members of the team disregarded Eclair's every commands. When Madeline quit the team to properly make way for Eclair without being haunted by her shadow, the senior members mistook her action for spite and deserted en masse.

Please, don't use edgy fan interpretation as a canon source. The entry is a gross exaggeration in direct contradiction to what is shown in both movie and manga adaptation. Nobody was being put in mortal danger and the participants came out of the exhibition match no worse for wear.


* WouldHurtAChild: Both emotionally by going back on his deal and threatening to put the Oarai girls all out of work full stop, and physically by allowing illegal units with live ammunition against Oarai to make sure nothing stops him from going through with his plans [[WouldHitAGirl even if it kills them in the process]]. It's all but implied that even with reinforcements coming to Oarai's aid, a lot of girls were heavily injured on both sides as a result of his actions.
