History Characters / HyperdimensionNeptuniaVictory

%%
%% Let's set some ground rules for consistency, shall we?
%%
%% English names for everything, except to note name changes in the character entries (and in cases where we don't have English names yet).
%% Shorthand for the second game should be capitalized as mk2, not [=Mk2=] or mk-2.
%% For the third game, use Victory, not V, since the English name has been confirmed to use the former, and the Japanese title has both.
%% For the fourth game, you may use either Victory II or [=VII=].
%% Do not call mk2 a sequel, except where it's the name of a trope. mk2 is a continuity reboot, and therefore not a sequel to anything.

This page lists all characters in ''VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaVictory'', the third game of the VideoGame/{{Neptunia}} series, and the tropes associated with them. Tropes specific to their portrayal in the other games of the series belong on the pages for those games.

[[folder:[=CPU=]s and [=CPU=] Candidates]]
!!General CPU Tropes

* AlternateSelf: The Ultradimension timeline (i.e. Plutia's world) versions of each of the goddesses, from Gamindustri in TheEighties, are their counterparts to the main goddesses we know in the main Hyperdimension timeline (i.e. Neptune's world). Neptune's counterpart goes further into being an entirely different person with the same color scheme and base personality. [[spoiler:Neptune's actual Ultradimension counterpart appears in TheStinger for the True End, and would later make her franchise debut in the [[VideoGame/MegaDimensionNeptuniaVII next canon game.]]]]
* BadassAdorable: They are goddesses after all, with potentially impressive fighting prowess to match that status.
* BiologicalImmortality: While they can be ''killed'' Goddesses cannot die otherwise, and at whatever point in their life they gain a CPU Memory in the Ultradimension, they stop aging.
* ExoticEyeDesigns: All [=CPUs=] have a power symbol in their eyes when in HDD.
* {{Flight}}: Most of the time they just [[PowerFloats float]], though they do tend to take to more extreme flights for special attacks. Yellow Heart is the most notable example though as she does so outside of combat. In one cutscene, she ''actually'' flies up into the air and then flies away, complete with a ''sonic boom'' no less.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble:
** Neptune is '''Sanguine''', being the most outgoing and cheerful of the four.
** Noire is '''Melancholic''', being solitary and prone to hide her feelings.
** Blanc is '''Choleric''', being the quickest to anger.
** Vert is '''Phlegmatic''', being the voice of reason in the group and generally the nicest.
* MagicalGirlWarrior: All [=CPUs=] have elements of these.
* MoeAnthropomorphism: Of various consoles.
* OddJobGods: Create a nation, guide its technological growth, and do mercenary work for the people. There's a reason for that last part.
%%* PhysicalGoddess
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: This primarily only applies to the Hyperdimension timeline [=CPUs=] and CPU Candidates, of the Ultradimension [=CPUs=] only Blanc [[spoiler:and Rei Ryghts]] applies as the rest only recently became immortal so they are at most only a few decades older than they appear.
* TookALevelInKindness: In ''[=Re;Birth3=]'' compared to their ''Victory'' incarnations, continuing the trend set in ''[=Re;Birth1=]'' and ''[=Re;Birth2=]'' to their originals. It's really apparent when comparing their treatment of Nepgear, where it's much more lighthearted in nature.
* TrueCompanions: What is touching about this game is how Neptune considers her fellow [=CPUs=] to be this, even when in an alternate universe, she always trusts that they'll do the right thing, or they aren't really plotting something evil.
* VitriolicBestBuds: The Ultradimension [=CPUs=] are overall more selfish and rude to each other compared to their Hyperdimension counterparts, with [[TokenEvilTeammate Iris Heart]] being just as dangerous to them as she is to her enemies (such as using Noire as her outlet for her pent-up aggression), to the point of bordering on WithFriendsLikeThese. That said, they still manage to be helpful allies to each other, courtesy of Neptune.

!!Neptune/Purple Heart
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RieTanaka (Japanese), Creator/MelissaFahn (English)
[[quoteright:162:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/e3b6_6312.png]]
* ACupAngst: While normally she doesn't really show any concern about her lack of assets, she does react negatively when Vert mocks her by calling them raisins.
--> '''Neptune''': *mumble, grumble* I'll raisin your face...
* AloofBigSister: For the most part, she doesn't seem to care what happens to Nepgear anymore. From everyone making fun of her, to Iris Heart torturing her ''right in front of everyone'', even thinking its a suitable punishment, after Nepgear fought against her alongside Vert because the latter was actually giving her some sisterly attention. The Good Ending even has her [[spoiler: leaving Nepgear in the Ultradimension when she makes it back to the Hyperdimension and just spending her time sleeping with Plutia, taking a while to remember that Nepgear is trapped in the past.]] However, there are also several instances where she shows [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone genuine regret over her treatment of Nepgear.]]
* AscendedExtra: A kind of weird example, since although the first game had another Neptune as the main character, ''this'' Neptune had only a supporting role in ''mk2'', making this game technically her first time in the protagonist role.
* BrilliantButLazy: When she actually sets her mind to it she is incredibly productive, and at one point breaks down days into hours, minutes, and finally seconds and starts to try to calculate the difference for leap years over the [[YearInsideHourOutside difference in time flow between the two dimensions]]. Overlaps with GeniusDitz.
** Shown even more to the point where (Child) IF is impressed with her. She managed to understand all the references IF made in her notebook, and showed quite a bit of knowledge that no one can be blamed for lacking such as the fact that Beelzebub is the demon of gluttony.
** She also starts [[MouthfulOfPi reciting pi]] in lieu of counting down from ten, and shows some political savvy every now and then.
%%* BigEater
* BigSisterInstinct: Despite all the crap she gives Nepgear she will quickly jump to her defense if anyone else, aside from Plutia, does anything to her intentionally or not. When Rei ends up [[CatapultNightmare headbutting Nepgear waking up from a nightmare]] she snaps at her for it.
--> '''Neptune''': [[DeathGlare Yo, lady!]] What's the big idea, waking up and headbutting my totally awesome little sister!?
* BraidsOfAction: She has them as Purple Heart.
* BrokenPedestal: Nepgear rather loses faith in her sister after she gets abandoned ''again''. [[spoiler:This is, however, after she manages to make it to the alternate dimension her sister is in...and her sister leaves her with babies to go to Leanbox. ]]
** However, in Neptune's defense, [[spoiler:leaving Nepgear with the babies was probably the most sensible option available to Neptune at that point of time; having just arrived in the Ultradimension robbed Nepgear of the ability to shift into Purple Sister, at least until a spare Memory Core could be found and given to her. Given that the entire party was already wary of Vert's invitation to Leanbox as potentially being a trap, it's hard to fault Neptune for at least this incident. Nepgear was also just being difficult in this particular scene.]]
* BroughtDownToNormal: When she is sent back into the past, she loses her ability to transform into HDD. She initially doesn't mind, seeing it as freedom from being forced to work, but quickly realizes [[GrowingUpSucks she doesn't like the full implications]] and [[ImmortalitySeeker decides to rectify it.]]
** [[spoiler: CantStayNormal: She gains it back from a CPU Memory at the same time Ultradimension Noire gains her own goddess form.]]
* CharacterNarrator: Noire even has to lampshade the fact that she's just mumbling to herself.
* CoolShip: Can turn into one, just like in the [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptunia original Neptunia]]. As a bonus, you can get Plutia to do it with her for [[CombinationAttack a double helping of]] [[WaveMotionGun purple laser death]]...or at least its "[[EarthShatteringKaboom dramatization]]".
* CrashIntoHello: How Neptune meets Plutia and Ultradimension Noire.
* DistractedByMyOwnSexy: Her first words after seeing Purple Heart [[spoiler:via CloningBlues from Ultradimension Rei]]?
--> '''Neptune''': Oh, wow! Who ''is'' this stylish, cool, beautiful girl!?\\
'''Neptune''': *with sparkling eyes* Still, I approve of me. I look pretty hot!
* DoesNotKnowHerOwnStrength: When trying to keep Rei from running away because she didn't want to be lonely, she nearly chokes the poor girl.
* DoesNotLikeSpam: [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Eggplants]], for some reason. [[spoiler:Unless it's so ridiculous it CrossesTheLineTwice. Then she doesn't care.]] A certain someone ([[spoiler:Iffy]]) soon comes to agree. ''Vigorously.''
* DeadpanSnarker: Does this sometimes when talking to Noire after she learns that she was voted the most popular in the other world.
--> '''Neptune:''' I See. Even with Noire there it's bad times. Not even the great Popular Heart can help?
* DullSurprise: Invoked by Neptune when Vert reveals herself as Leanbox's CPU.
--> '''Neptune:''' Oh my gosh. Impossible, you guys. Like seriously. Vert's the CPU of Leanbox? Mind: blown.\\
'''Plutia:''' Neppy, you don't sound very surprised to me...
* {{Egopolis}}: Neptune decides that Planeptune needs to have more things Nep, so she convinces Plutia to declare that the new national base measurement be based on Neptune's height [[labelnote:Explanation]]The Nep is equal to 146cm for those who are curious[[/labelnote]].
* FanservicePack: Her Purple Heart form has grown in the right places over the TimeSkip between ''mk2'' and ''Victory''.
* FatalFlaw: Pride, Pettiness, and Laziness. The first two are discussed shortly after [[spoiler: Peashy is kidnapped by Anonydeath]] as the cause of the fight between the two. And while not directly stated, is implied to be part of the growing SiblingRivalry with Nepgear.
** Her laziness comes closer to being an InformedFlaw. While it is repeatedly said that she doesn't do much, it takes very little to actually get her working on anything. ''[[ChronicHeroSyndrome This]]'' is actually [[KansasCityShuffle exploited]] by the Seven Sages.
* GenkiGirl: She is pretty hyperactive in her normal form, in stark contrast to [[LadyOfWar her HDD form.]]
* GenreSavvy: Because there's NoFourthWall in this series, she can actually tell things that could happen. [[spoiler: She even correctly deduces that the Seven Sages are the ones behind the kidnapping, though [[LockedOutOfTheLoop Abnes really didn't know that one.]]]]
** To the point that other characters tell her to ''stop'' BreakingTheFourthWall already.
%%* GirlyRun
* GrowingUpSucks: She ''really'' does not want to grow older. She admits that she'd likely be totally sexy if she grew up a bit ([[ShesAllGrownUp as proven by her adult self]] in ''[[VideoGame/MegadimensionNeptuniaVII VII]]''), but she enjoys being young and adorable, and can get all the sexiness needed when she transforms.
* HeroesPreferSwords: Uses [[KatanasAreJustBetter Katanas]], [[{{BFS}} Broadswords]], and [[LaserBlade Laser Blades]]. Ultimately many will see that KatanasAreJustBetter as Purple Heart only uses katanas regardless of what she had equipped as Neptune.
* HypocriticalHumor: When explaining her [[DoesNotLikeSpam hatred of eggplants]] she states that eggplants turn your eyes purple... which ignores the fact that her eyes ARE purple.
* IAmNotShazam: [[InvokedTrope Neptune mentions this problem.]] She tries to teach the babies how to properly pronounce her name, and among their mistakes is Neptunia. She's actually fine with various nicknames just so long as they're ''not the localized English title of the game''. Before anyone asks, this happens in both the Japanese and English audio tracks.
--> '''Neptune''': "I'm teaching these kids how to properly pronounce my name. It's important not to confuse my name with the title of the game, so this'll save me some trouble."
* ImmortalityBeginsAtTwenty: She mentions that [=CPUs=] from her timeline are born that way.
* ImmortalitySeeker: While initially glad to be rid of the responsibilities that come with being a CPU she decides that she wants to become one again due the fact that she doesn't want to start aging.
* ImTakingHerHomeWithMe: When she figures out who the baby IF and Compa are, she immediately requests that she be allowed to take them back to her world. Histoire shoots the idea down, so she decides to just make the most of the time she has with them there.
** She also reacts this way when she first meets Mini-Histy, nearly strangling the poor thing to death with a bear hug.
* InSeriesNickname: Has no less than '''4''' of them, the most of any character in the series.
** Nep-Nep / Nepu-Nepu (Japanese) : Used by Compa
** Nep / Nepu-ko (Japanese) : Used by IF
** Neppy / Nep-chan (Japanese): used by Pluta / Pururut
** Neptuna / Neputenu (Japanese) : Used by Peashy
* {{Irony}}: The [[UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis S32X]] Processor Unit is not one of hers, but rather Plutia's, despite being based on the system she was named for.
** Neptune, the ''most'' eccentric of the main cast and the one often having to be set straight by someone more serious, often ends up having to play straight-man to her friends' more excitable alternate selves. See the OnlySaneWoman entry down below.
%%* LadyOfWar: Her Purple Heart personality.
* LightningBruiser: Contrast the other two games where she's a GlassCannon, she's this in ''Victory'' even in her HDD form. Dishes out good damage, is the only one who can break the [[{{Cap}} damage limit]] naturally, is a good tank, and moves pretty fast. She also has a large array of [[StatusBuff buffs]] that are useful, and she's got a lot of [[LimitBreak EXE Attacks]] (see below trope). Her problem? She can't heal unless you use an item, she has problems dealing a lot of damage thanks to enemy traits that stops her from attacking at full power (even if Neptune has a bigger strength stat than Noire when they have the same levels), and not a lot of debuffs (which in this game, is [[NintendoHard pretty bad]]). Most tactics with the BonusBoss fights will involve her almost tanking instead of attacking while the rest of the characters wail on the enemy. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Oh and the description that the]] [[LimitBreak Neptune Break]] is a GameBreaker [[AvertedTrope isn't really one.]]
* LimitBreak: This entry is notable in Neptune because she has so many of them--no less than ''fifteen''. Neptune is the only character who gets two EXE Drives of her own, and she also gets {{Combination Attack}}s with nearly every single non-DLC character in the game--including being required for the single most overpowered one of them all: '''[[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill Guardian Force]].'''
* MacrossMissileMassacre: Her second [[LimitBreak EXE Drive]] "CPU Neptune", which sees Nep transforming into a CoolShip. Her boss-enemy-only extension takes it a step further by delivering another payload.
* {{Malaproper}}: A new trait for Neptune. She has a habit of screwing up common turns of phrase like saying that Nepgear is "wet behind the years" or that she's not about to "spin the bucket" after her crash landing on Ultradimension Noire. It goes well with her ditzy personality.
* MrViceGuy: Neptune does not like working, gets easily riled up, is petty and a bit insensitive. However, she also knows when it's time to suck it up and do what she has to do, is very friendly to anyone who isn't murderously hostile, is easygoing, cheerful and optimistic, generally assumes the best of others and will become downright heroic when the chips are down. Sometimes it's hard to see because of her carefree approach to life and difficult personality, but Neptune keeps reminding you she's the protagonist for a reason.
* MultiMeleeMaster[=/=]MultiRangedMaster: Thanks to the new gameplay mechanic "[[EquippableAlly Final CPU Form]]", Neptune gets to use a {{BFS}}, a spear, an axe, a [[MixAndMatchWeapon gunblade]], an ''[[RefugeInAudacity airplane]]'', and a PowerFist.
* OlderAndWiser: Neptune is more mature and understanding in this game than before, but still very keet.
* OnlySaneWoman: Surprisingly enough, Neptune is forced into this role quite a lot in this game. During story segments she's usually the one keeping a level head, and in a few comedy scenes she was made into the straight-man. This is a result of being TheOlderImmortal in a world where her juniors all have several [[VagueAge hundred or thousand years]] less experience than her, and conflicting attitudes to match.
--> '''Neptune''': How did I become the only one with any common sense?
* PiggybackCute: After being forced by Plutia, Neptune (as Purple Heart) gives her one.
* PillarOfLight: The finisher extension of her "[[LimitBreak Neptune Break]]" EXE Drive is topped off by [[RammingAlwaysWorks ramming the enemy into the ground]] [[DynamicEntry at high speed]] and creating a huge cross-shaped pillar of purple power.
%%* PurpleIsPowerful
* PunchClockHero: Basically, Neptune does CPU work because she's forced to do it. She'd probably only ever work to satisfy basic life expenses if she weren't. [[SubvertedTrope However]], she's also not the sort of person who would ignore other people in need if she can do anything about it. [[ScrewThisImOutOfHere Just don't ask her to get in the way of Iris Heart.]]
* RestartAtLevelOne: Very much lampshaded after the first fight. Falls into GameplayAndStorySegregation when on a NewGamePlus.
* RotatingProtagonist: Both she and Plutia insist in their Self Intros that they are the main character, and while Plutia insists that not only is she the main character but specifies that [[DecoyProtagonist Neptune is not]] they do actually largely share the role.
* ShipTease: Many of the official art has her doing this with Noire and now even Plutia.
* ShootTheDog: Shortly after meeting up with Uni, Ram, and Rom she tells Plutia to just go ahead and transform and do what she's going to do so as to avoid having her traumatize them in the middle of battle where it would cost them their lives.
* SiblingRivalry:
** Has a rather one sided one with Nepgear. Her [[TookALevelInJerkass increasingly inconsiderate treatment of Nepgear]] comes after her sister screws things up, both accidentally and not, for her. Notably [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaMk2 taking her job]] but trying to still push that work onto Neptune, indirectly getting her trapped in the alternate dimension ''twice'', [[spoiler: stabbing her in the back for trying to make it so she could safely stay with the group]], and blaming Neptune for something Plutia did.
** Despite not being Vert's sister, Neptune now has this dynamic with '''Ultradimension''' Vert, due to Vert making Nepgear a CPU, and, (by her logic anyway) this making Nepgear her little sister due to being born from the same memory core.
* SiblingYinYang: This gets played up quite a bit. In addition to their personalities, there are mechanical and visual contrasts between them. Neptune naturally ignores the damage cap and enables her partner to ignore enemy traits, Nepgear naturally ignores enemy traits while granting her partner the ability to ignore the damage cap. On a tier by tier basis their HDD forms contrast each other with black and white color schemes.
%%* TheSlacker
* SlapOnTheWristNuke: Remember the Nep-ship back in VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptunia? [[TheBusCameBack It's back.]]
** Also slightly averted, it has received a lot more power.
** Her "Who Done It?! Nova", AKA [[MakesAsMuchSenseInContext the Inafune Face Ship]], does a version with triple {{Wave Motion Gun}}s.
* SplitPersonality: Neptune is a GenkiGirl, while her alter ego Purple Heart seems to be more of a LadyOfWar.
* SwordPointing: One of her attacks makes her do this before she delivers the blows.
* TemptingFate: In ''mk2'', she promised Nepgear she'd never leave her again, and now she's TrappedInAnotherWorld.
** She later worries that Mini-Histy will show up panicking about something terrible happening again, [[LampshadeHanging noting]] that [[RunningGag it's becoming a pattern]]. She's proven right immediately after.
* TooDumbToLive: According to the other [=CPUs=] anyway. When she starts to wonder where the Ultradimension Neptune is at they point out that, if the Ultradimension Neptune had the same general personality as the Hyperdimension Neptune, she has very likely ended up starving herself to death or worse without the immortality from being a CPU. [[spoiler: Hilariously enough, Ultradimension Neptune is not only alive and well in TheStinger of the True Ending. Not to mention, as ''VideoGame/MegadimensionNeptuniaVII'' reveals, she's the one who gets to solve the final problem about [[ForTheEvulz Croire]] without even knowing what was going on and just wanted to show it off to her friends in that dimension when she caught her.]]
* TookALevelInJerkass: Compared to her lazy but well-meaning depiction in the earlier games, Neptune in this game is a lot more lazy and selfish, being rather uncaring to Nepgear (even before they went to the Ultradimension) and openly rude to Noire, leading to the former [[WhatTheHellHero calling her out on her callous behavior towards her]].
* TookALevelInKindness: In ''[=Re;Birth3=]'', she's much more accepting of her sister than her ''Victory'' incarnation.
* TotallyRadical: She tends to use some 80's/90's slang such as "bad dude", her death cry of "I'm... outies...", and even "totally rad" at one point. She also has a tinge of [[ValleyGirl Valley Girl]] in her voice. [[FridgeBrilliance Keep in mind that]] [[JustifiedTrope she is supposed to represent]] Creator/{{SEGA}}, [[JustifiedTrope who were all about being]] [[TotallyRadical Totally Radical]] in the 90's. For once, this may help her fit in.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: She loves custard pudding.
* TrappedInThePast: What kicks off ''Victory'''s plot is that a dimension rift sucks Neptune into the 1980's.
* VerbalTic: "Neppu". Whenever she is startled.
* WaveMotionGun: ''Twice.'' The earliest is when using the "Who Done It?! Nova", a mixture of eye lasers and mouth beam from the [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext Inafune Face Ship]]. The second is a CombinationAttack with Plutia, "CPU: Plutia", in which whatever the hell the second part of their attack is is "dramatized" as a ''[[EarthShatteringKaboom Gamindustri-destroying]]'' giant [[PurpleIsPowerful purple]] laser beam.
* WhatTheHellHero:
** Nepgear calls Neptune "stupid big-sister-who-abandoned-me-in-a-different-dimension". That's a pretty apt description.
** If you thought Nepgear was the only one upset with her, you couldn't be further from the truth; Histoire has a much more scathing opinion of Neptune in the Japanese dialogue [[spoiler: where she bluntly states that Neptune is absolutely unqualified to even be Nepgear's elder sister.]]
** Hell she even ''calls herself'' out on it (very briefly though) when she claims that she fails as a big sister in the prologue. Nepgear however forgives her because they finally get to be alone together (even if it's just the prologue).
** In true 4th-Wall-Breaking-Neptune fashion, she even goes as far as to use ''the trophy descriptions'' to apologize to Nepgear. That's some hardcore guilt.
* TheWonka: Neptune is ''very'' eccentric, and others often find it difficult to keep track of her logic. Though she needs a little motivation first to get off her rear, she'll get pretty much ''anything'' done once she does.
* WoodenKatanasAreEvenBetter: Her starting weapon. She found it in a dumpster. Still loves it.

!![[UsefulNotes/{{Xbox}} Vert/Green Heart]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/RinaSato (Japanese), Creator/TaraPlatt (English)
[[quoteright:180:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/9f80ccfd4a08b562f2077d5715526528_8642.png]]
* BigBreastPride: She's quite boastful about being the most well-endowed of the [=CPUs=] in their default states, taking particular joy in mocking [[ACupAngst Blanc]] for not getting any bigger even after transforming. This leads to frustration when the even bigger Yellow Heart shows up, even wanting to ''kill her'' just so she can reinstate herself as the largest bust.
* CainAndAbelAndSeth: While not Nepgear's true sister (except by her own logic), Ultradimension Vert plays this trope up when she makes Nepgear a CPU, claiming her as her little sister. It's mostly played for laughs.
* TheConqueror: Vert, this time around, plans on invading other countries to solve her country's problems.
* DisproportionateRetribution: Her [[SarcasmMode totally legitimate]] reasoning to kill Yellow Heart is that the latter has a bigger rack than her. [[ACupAngst Blanc]] also follows suit, albeit for a different reason.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: Only MMO shut-ins with no lives could get a CPU Memory indeed.
* GlassCannon: Vert has balanced stats with a focus on high Strength and Intelligence, but suffers from low HP and Vitality as a result.
* GamerChick: It doesn't come up as much as with her previous versions, but she's still just as obsessive. At one point she says that it's unfortunate that she's been able to put in ''only'' 150 hours into a game that had only been out for a week. An unlockable has her brag that she's managed to get 30 hours of gaming in a day.
%%* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: As Vert.
* ImTakingHerHomeWithMe: Vert's reaction to Nepgear is this, giving her a CPU memory and claiming her as her little sister. Whether or not the sibling part becomes a binding thing after, they ''do'' immediately gain a very good ranking in Lily Points.
** She gets this reaction again when [[spoiler:Peashy]] mispronounces her name as Bert. She even goes so far as to offer to trade Nepgear back if she could just take [[spoiler: Peashy]].
* ITakeOffenseToThatLastOne: In one of the Nepstation segments, there was a scandal involved with her photo shoot revealing her three sizes and her age. The one thing she was complaining about? ''Her public age revealed.''
* MaamShock: If Yellow Heart having a larger bust than her hadn't already angered her enough, she then proceeds to address her as "Mommy". Meanwhile, Noire and Neptune can barely contain their laughter. She was later concerned that [[spoiler:Peashy]] might call her this again when they're testing if she remembers their names.
* MeaningfulName: "Vert" means "green" in French, and she's wearing green, which also represents the Xbox consoles.
* MistakenForGay: Her quick attachment to Nepgear raises several eyebrows, but she insists that it's platonic. She actually wants a little sister.
* MythologyGag: The original Xbox went public [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xbox_(console)#History early 2000 at Game Developer's Conference]] somewhere close to the same time as the [=PS2=] had successful sales. Original development started in ''1998''. Microsoft also wanted to focus on Japan due to [[FollowTheLeader successful video game sales there]].
* NeverMyFault: During the True End both Verts fight over who gets to be Peashy's "big sister" at what times. When she snaps at the two of them for it, each Vert insists that it was the other's fault for making Peashy upset with them.
* NoblewomansLaugh: On at least one occasion, she displays this, which is honestly quite expected.
* SecretIdentity: When Neptune reveals that she knows who she is, Vert pulls her aside and orders her to keep it to herself so as to not ruin it for [[FourthWallObserver the people on the other side of the screen]] and [[DiscussedTrope because a maiden has to have her secrets]].
* SiblingRivalry: Despite not being Neptune's sister, Ultradimension Vert now has this dynamic with Neptune, due to Vert making Nepgear a CPU, and, (by her logic anyway) this making Nepgear her little sister due to being born from the same memory core.
* SoreLoser: She [[{{Understatement}} doesn't react kindly]] to her and [[ImTakingHerHomeWithMe Purple Sister]] being bested by the other goddesses, who even call her out for just ''how'' sore she is as a loser [[note]] She claims that if it were one-on-one, she'd have won. Except that she wouldn't; if one takes the time to equip all the playable characters with identical low-tier bangles (or by taking note of the base stats that are displayed onscreen during a Level Up), Vert actually has a horrendous VIT stat (the lowest in the entire game). She might be able to dish it out (she has the second highest STR rating and a very high INT rating), but one hard hit would theoretically be sufficient to take her down. especially against someone like Blanc/White Heart who has the highest VIT rating of the entire cast.[[/note]].
* SpannerInTheWorks: Mr. Badd's plan to be rid of the goddesses [[spoiler:went perfectly. The only thing he couldn't foresee was that a goddess no one knew existed would bail them out.]]
* {{Stripperific}}: Her Double Round Processor Unit deserves special mention. The [[WardrobeMalfunction outfit is also very]] [[VisualPun red]]. [[labelnote:Explanation]] Named after the nickname, at the time, for the UsefulNotes/XboxOne. [=XBox=] 720[[/labelnote]]
* {{Underboobs}}: She plays this trope straight.
* UrbanLegendOfZelda: {{Invoked}} during one Nepstation segment. She reports that somewhere in the game is a hidden minigame "Rock, Paper, Strippers", where you can strip Nepgear by winning. Histoire informs her that there is no such thing in the game.
%%* YaoiFangirl: Part of her collection.

!![[UsefulNotes/{{Playstation}} Noire/Black Heart]]
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/AsamiImai (Japanese), Creator/ErinFitzgerald (English)
[[quoteright:119:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/5b159483b693a6733ac8bdb366c5fee7_2158.png]]
* ActorAllusion: The fact that MAGES. is able to push her buttons by calling her "Assistant" is due to Noire's JP voice actress also playing Kurisu Makise in ''VisualNovel/SteinsGate''.
* BadBoss: She is this to her soldiers, albeit in a non-lethal way.
-->'''Black Heart:''' (during a report of someone attacking Lastation) [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall You certainly know the foe's number and the scale of damage…?]]
-->'''Lastation Soldier:''' Oh, no, sorry… I… uh… didn't listen to the whole report.
-->'''Black Heart:''' [[MakeAnExampleOfThem As soon as we're done here, this guy's fired.]]
* BaitAndSwitch ShoutOut: Her Stone Leek outfit comes with the description that she thinks it vaguely resembles some kind of virtual idol. Clearly this is going to be a [[Music/{{Vocaloid}} Miku]] color scheme? Almost, but with the hair color it's clearly [[VideoGame/MugenSouls Dees Vanguard]].
* {{BFS}}: Her rapiers become one in HDD and her Final CPU Form is one.
* ButtMonkey: People seem to fall on her. [[RunningGag A lot]].
* CosplayOtakuGirl: She designs her own clothing, some of which is admittedly meant to be reminiscent of something or someone else. The default design is by her own admission what she imagined a CPU would wear before she ever even became one. Her Face Visor outright says it's intended for cosplay, [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial which she doesn't do or anything.]]
* CrashIntoHello: How pretty much ''anyone'' meets Ultradimension Noire.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Her main color is black, and she is, while arrogant, a heroine.
* DoesNotLikeMen: Defending her position as the gayest character in the franchise, when [[spoiler:Anonydeath showed up outside of his armor masquerading as Peashy's father, everyone besides Noire and Blanc found him cute, and Noire had to remind everyone that he is a ''man'']]. She also responds "men are the worst" when she hears that Tekken was harassed by men that she beat at the arcade.
** The only moment she showed some interest in men was in the non-canon CD ''If A Goddess Was Your Wife CD Track 02 - Noire''. which doesn't take place in any universe since [[WordOfGod Tsunako clarified in one of her 4-komas that it's just the goddesses roleplaying as if they were married]] so she actually have never show any interest in the opposite gender.
* EveryoneHasStandards: As much as she and Blanc butt heads, even she was appalled when Plutia admitted that she (initially) befriended Blanc [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk just to make her cry more later]].
* {{Expy}}: Somehow, Noire really resembles [[http://picpost.mthai.com/pic/63825/1133133.jpg Azusa]] from ''Manga/KOn''.
* FashionableAsymmetry: Her [[UsefulNotes/PlayStation4 Orbital-S]] Processor Unit.[[labelnote:Explanation]] Named for the system's codename Orbis[[/labelnote]]
* GenerationXerox: Inverted ([[ItMakesSenseInContext just roll with it]]). In the alternate universe, Anonydeath in his introduction outright says that he loves Noire.
* GirlishPigtails: She dons this hairstyle, but unlike her Hyperdimension counterpart, she keeps the twintails as Black Heart.
%%* HeroesPreferSwords
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: She doubts herself when leading others.
* KickTheDog: She unleashed verbal hell on and demanding an apology from the de-powered and emotionally broken Blanc. Keep in mind, the latter was, just a few minutes ago, publicly defeated, humiliated and betrayed on national TV and finally had her nation seized from her in a political coup. This causes Neptune of all people to step in to prevent her from raining any more abuse on Blanc. When the latter finally cracked and broke down into a crying mess, Neptune makes it clear that she's ''very'' upset with Noire.
-->'''Neptune:''' Now you've done it. Teacher! Noire just made Blanc cry!!
* MadLibsCatchPhrase: PhraseCatcher variant: Noire is ___ Heart. Inserting words poking fun at her supposed lack of friends or attitude problems. Lonely Heart being one of the more common ones.
* MadnessMantra: After a few hours of Iris Heart giving "her most popular lecture", she comes out of the room babbling like a broken record. It actually continues onto the CPU Hotel and Basilicom maps if you try to talk with her there, your save files for that portion of the story, and [[OverlyLongGag finally ends shortly into the next story event involving her.]]
--> '''Noire''': "I AM GOING TO LOWEE. I AM GOING TO LOWEE. THEY WILL HEAR ME COMPLAIN DIRECTLY. IN LOWEE. TO LOWEE... I AM GOING... COMPLAIN DIRECTLY...GOING AND GOING AND GOING AND GOING AND GOING AND GOING AND..."
--> '''Noire''': "I WILL GO TO LOWEE. I WILL SAY MY COMPLAINTS DIRECTLY TO HER. GO TO LOWEE. GO TO. GO. TO. GO... GO TO. GO. TO. GO..."
* MakeAnExampleOfThem: Fires a Lastation Soldier because he didn't completely listen to a report. [[AscendedExtra Poor guy, he'd just gotten three appearances...]]
* MeaningfulName: "Noire" means "black" in French.
* MotorMouth: When she realizes that she's about to become a landing pad for the ''third time'', courtesy of Yellow Heart.
%%* MysticalWhiteHair: As Black Heart only.
* OnlySaneWoman: Plays as this.
%%* RoyalRapier
* ShipTease: Many of the official art has her doing this with Neptune and now even Plutia.
* StraightMan: Much to her eternal chagrin, she has to play this role for the two {{Plucky Comic Relief}}s, Neptune and Plutia, who seem to see their adventure as an opportunity to set up a three CPU comedy act while she desperately tries to take it seriously and keep things on track. She even tries to pass the role of straight man off to Blanc at one point. Blanc refuses, however, preferring to be, as she puts it, an audience member.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: She ends up playing the same general role in this game as IF did in the previous games. Blanc points this out in Chapter 8, though from her perspective it's the other way around, by calling IF Noire-II.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: She's not lonely, not at all.
* ThousandYardStare: After her "long, intimate discussion" with Iris Heart at the start of chapter 3.
-->'''Neptune:''' Noire?! Your eyes are staring way beyond the horizon...
* ThroughHisStomach: In the non-canon CD ''If A Goddess Was Your Wife CD Track 02 - Noire'', one of the things Noire's husband enjoys most is her cooking.
* TookALevelInKindness: Played with. This Noire is from an alternate universe, but she certainly is softer than the tsundere we know and love.
** Lampshaded when [[spoiler:the two of them meet. Cue the entire cast concluding Ultradimension Noire is much more fun to be around.]]
* {{Tsundere}}: Because of this Neptune has taken to calling her "Lonely Heart" whenever she falls into her Tsun personality.
* VitriolicBestBuds: How Neptune sees her relationship with Blanc, much as both of them try to deny it. Considering this is [[TheGadfly Neptune]] and Blanc and Noire constantly argue whenever they're together, it's not surprising.
* WhatTheHellHero: Neptune quickly and accurately figures out why Noire would suddenly be not only okay with, but actually encouraging, Plutia's transformation into Iris Heart and calls her out on it.

* ACupAngst: This acts as her major BerserkButton, a fact not helped by the other goddesses undergoing BreastExpansion in their HDD forms. When Yellow Heart first appears, she, alongside Vert, proceeded to take her down out of jealousy of Yellow Heart having a bigger chest than her.
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Implied to be the reason she's so fond of Plutia.
* BreakTheHaughty: She challenges Neptune, Noire and Plutia to a televised 3-on-1 to prove herself as the only worthwhile CPU. What instead goes public is her losing the battle, and consequently Lowee's faith, her CPU powers, and [[spoiler:Lowee itself as Mister Badd overthrows her. When Noire rubs in how her arrogance caused all this, she finally bursts into tears.]]
* BruiserWithASoftCenter: As Iris Heart points out, she acts aggressive and hostile, but is actually shy and insecure.
* CharacterExaggeration: This Blanc has an even bigger ego and an even shorter fuse.
* DefeatEqualsFriendship:[[spoiler: Summed up by Iris Heart easily when they're in prison after defeating Blanc due to Mister Badd, although this might just be Putia's way of making up to her over the humiliation of being defeated in combat on live TV that essentially stripped her of all her faith and forcibly reverting her into a powerless girl.]]
--> '''Iris Heart:''' [[spoiler: Let me get to my point. We will be your friends.]]
* DefrostingIceQueen: [[CharacterDevelopment Throughout the game]], she gradually opens up to the other [=CPUs=].
* DidntWantAnAdventure: While imprisoned with the others she reveals that, like Plutia, she never intended to become a CPU and became one by accident.
* DoesNotLikeMen: Blanc gives off this vibe when [[spoiler:she sees Plutia holding the baby IF, Compa, and Peashy]], saying she "hadn't detected the stench of a man" the last time she was there (though she'd only used the word "presence" in the Japanese version).
** Justified since [[spoiler:the only man she's been seen to have ever dealt with stabbed her in the back and stole her country from her]].
** Then again, when RED all but proposes to her, Blanc says she doesn't mind either way.
-->'''Blanc:''' I don't care. It kind of soothes my soul to be called someone's wife, male or female.
* DropTheHammer: Blanc's main weapon is a hammer.
* {{Expy}}: Blanc is pretty much a white Vita.
* GoodIsNotSoft: Just like Iris Heart, just because she's a good guy, doesn't mean she'll show mercy to an enemy.
* HairTriggerTemper: She's much more aggressive and hostile than her Hyperdimension counterpart.
* HeroicBSOD: For a brief period after she gets beat up by Neptune, Noire, and Plutia live on camera.
* HumanizingTears: Having suffered a humiliating defeat against the other goddesses and being insulted by Noire, she immediately drops her cold and hostile attitude and breaks down crying. It's later revealed by Iris Heart that her [[SourOutsideSadInside abrasive behavior was just a facade]].
* HypocriticalHumor: Blanc says Noire has a short fuse...while simply looking at Blanc funny can piss ''her'' off.
* IHatePastMe: She's ashamed of her past self for acting like she was the only worthwhile goddess who didn't need any friends, especially when she sees similar behavior from [[spoiler:Rei]].
%%* IdiotHair: Has one as White Heart.
* ImTakingHerHomeWithMe: [[spoiler: Ultradimension Blanc outright requests that Hyperdimension Blanc give her one of her sisters to raise in her dimension. Needless to say [[MamaBear Hyperdimension Blanc]] will hear nothing of it.]]
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] example. More openly rude and hostile than the Blanc from the Hyper Dimension, but also friendlier and more openly sociable once she opens up to the others.
* LadySwearsALot: She has a potty mouth, especially as White Heart.
* MeaningfulName: "Blanc" means "white".
* {{Miko}}: Her redesign seems to be based on this. In fact, very close to [[Franchise/TouhouProject another red-white miko]].
* MythologyGag: This Blanc is more antagonistic to the other [=CPUs=] because of what happened during the UsefulNotes/{{SNESCDROM}}. Furethermore, Nintendo decided ''not'' to join the bandwagon of [=CDs=], and implemented ''strict'', almost KnightTemplar levels of guidelines for releasing games (the Seal of Quality, for example), but the decision had even worse expenses (cartridges would go for 70 USD each). Finally, one of the weirdest case examples of swearing? ''VideoGame/ConkersBadFurDay''.
* TheNapoleon: Until [[spoiler: [[TokenMiniMoe Peashy]]]] arrived, she was one of the shortest of the [=CPUs=] and is by far the most hot-headed and vulgar
* TheOlderImmortal: When it comes to the main Goddesses of the Ultradimension, Blanc is the oldest, having been a [=CPU=] for several centuries, while Vert, Plutia, and Noire have only been a CPU for a few years (bordering on decades). The audience and cast are constantly reminded of her age by her habit of referring to the other Goddesses as "brand-new baby [=CPUs=]", "newbie", or anything referring to how much younger than her they are. [[spoiler: Her age, however, is nothing compared to Rei...]]
%%* PrettyInMink: One of her outfits has sleeves trimmed with brown fur.
%%* RedEyesTakeWarning
* SourOutsideSadInside: Acts aggressive and hostile to cover up her insecurities.
* StoneWall: Blanc's HP, Vitality, and Mentality are all very high, making her very durable, but as a result however she suffers from subpar Strength and low speed.
* TomboyishVoice: She normally has a soft voice, but takes on a more aggressive tone with vulgar speech patterns when she gets riled up, which becomes her default manner of speaking as White Heart.
* TookALevelInKindness: Overtime, she becomes more open and friendly to the rest of the team, although she still has bad blood with Noire. Iris Heart also states that beneath her tough and easily angered personality is a shy and sensitive young girl.
* VitriolicBestBuds: How Neptune sees her relationship with Noire, much as both of them try to deny it. Considering this is [[TheGadfly Neptune]] and Blanc and Noire constantly argue whenever they're together, it's not surprising.

* AmbiguouslyGay: It's only ambiguous for Plutia, Iris Heart is very open about her fixations on the women in the group. Plutia is fascinated with Vert's breasts, enjoys piggyback rides from Neptune, she wants to see a date between Noire and Neptune, Iris Heart's personality starts to take over Plutia's, among other things. [[spoiler: What little ambiguity there was for the Plutia personality is thrown straight out during the true ending.]]
* AntiHero: Definitely the textbook example in the entire series. As Iris Heart, she’s a {{sadist}}ic {{Dominatrix}} who [[BloodKnight enjoys inflicting pain on her enemies]] and indiscriminately frightens both friend and foe. Despite this, she has shown somewhat of a caring side to her allies, albeit in a very subtle way.
* AntiHeroSubstitute[=/=]SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Just like Noire filling in for IF, Plutia fills the same role as Compa due to her ditziness and being a CombatMedic. However, she's less heroic than Compa, being more of a scarmongering VillainProtagonist, especially Iris Heart.
* BadassAdorable: While as Plutia she is pretty cute and reasonably powerful, her sadistic streak and growth in power when she transforms into Iris Heart terrifies almost everyone around her.
* TheBaroness: As Iris Heart, she becomes cold-hearted and ruthless, mercilessly frightening friend and foe.
* BetweenMyLegs: Iris Heart's "Thunder Blade Kick" EXE Drive features a shot of the victim exploding between her legs, while she herself watches on, before continuing the assault.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Easily one of the most carefree and nicest characters in the game...who can also transform into a sadistic and fear mongering {{Dominatrix}} when angered. However, it's been shown later on that she can be pretty scary while in her civilian form, as one of her EXE Drive in fact is called "stress relief", where she ''punches her own dolls'', all while still keeping a cheerful expression.
* BigDamnHeroes: Iris Heart shows up in front of Neptune and Noire while the latter two are being pushed around by Arfoire. Though in this case Neptune's first reaction is, understandably, "We're screwed now".
* BitchInSheepsClothing: The kindness is a real part of her personality, but she's also hiding a sadistic nature via her Iris Heart form. Arfoire even calls Iris Heart a "cold, unfeeling woman".
* BlatantLies: Gets called out on this by Neptune when she says that she [[InterplayOfSexAndViolence doesn't get off from violence]].
* BlackComedyRape: Heaviely implied, but Iris Heart will often go the extra mile when she’s torturing her victims. Special mention goes to [[spoiler: Arfoire. After having already been beaten up by the goddesses in her monster form, Iris Heart, who was enraged when by her [[MamaBear kidnapping her "children"]], then proceeds torture her so brutality that she’s reduced to a VillainousBSOD.]]
* BloodKnight: When on the battle field, Iris Heart will gleefuly terrorize her enemies. A perfect example is with [[spoiler: Arfoire. Despite the other goddesses deciding to leave her alone after they defeated her, she doesn’t hold back from torturing her further as a way to let out her rage, as she kidnapped IF and Compa, unknowingly traumatizing the former in the process.]]
* BrilliantButLazy: See TheSlacker. She's… powerful, but seems to lack any kind of motivation whatsoever. Just like a certain other Neptunia protagonist...
* CardCarryingVillain: Sort of. While she's more CreepyGood than anything else, she can admit that she has megalomania.
* ComedicSociopathy: Most of her sense of humor -- both in civilian and HDD form -- comes from her constant remarks about how she wants to torment her victims.
* CuteAndPsycho: Plutia has been shown to be just as scary as Iris Heart, which is more or less [[ComedicSociopathy played as a joke]]. One of her EXE Drives, named "stress relief", has her gleefully beating up her dolls when attacking her enemies. [[spoiler: And when she found out that her children have been kidnapped by Arfoire, she starts giggling and speaking in a creepy tone, disturbing the other goddesses in their HDD forms.]]
--> '''Plutia''':[[spoiler: ....hehehe. Icky giant bug...such a gross insect to squish. Hehhehe....sorry, it's no good. I'm so mad, I can't hold it in. I know, I know...I wonder if this nasty woman will accept all these angry feelings...]]
* DepravedBisexual: Aggressively so as Iris Heart. She is AmbiguouslyGay and really loves her female companions a bit ''too'' much.
* {{Determinator}}: In both games where she winds up being possessed, she fights off whatever is possessing her and trying to take control of her. Stating she does not like [[BerserkButton having her body and mind hijacked]] would be an {{Understatement}}.
* DevelopmentGag[[invoked]]: The name Pururut is referenced repeatedly in the English version. It comes up directly as one of the choices to the quiz question as to what her nickname is, and she mentions that Neptune says that "Puru" makes her sound like [[VideoGame/MugenSouls someone's peon]].
* {{Dominatrix}}: Iris Heart definitely is one. Neptune also says the exact word when she sees her.
* TheDreaded: Just about anyone who is unfortunate enough to witness Madame Goddess will suffer a traumatizing ordeal. Even her own allies try their best not to let her transform.
* DubNameChange: It went from Pururut to Plutia, possibly to clash well with Neptune's name. The original name could have been thought to be a pun on the color purple, but listening to the dialogue in game, it's pronounced "Pururuto", meaning the Pluto pun was there to begin with. Also, "pururut" is a [[InMyLanguageThatSoundsLike Filipino slang word for "loose bowel movement" (diarrhea)]].
* EvenEvilHasStandards: Do ''not'' make a child cry with her around if you value your life. [[spoiler: The one case where she herself traumatizes Kid!IF for life is a result of her getting carried away on Arfoire after getting furious over the latter having kidnapped IF.]]
* {{Expy}}: Take Compa's [[TheDitz ditziness]] and occasional CuteAndPsycho moments, exaggerate it and you have Plutia.
* ExtremeOmnisexual: Iris Heart will use anyone as her "plaything", considering that her first victim on-screen was ''Warechu/Pirachu''. The sole exception is Vert who apparently isn't her type.
* EyeScream: Iris Heart's [[NonindicativeName Verbal Abuse]] has the camera switch to the perspective of her victim as she steps on their face and starts to grind her heel in before stomping straight in. This ends up [[MindRape lowering the Mental stat of every enemy nearby]].
* FetishizedAbuser: Iris Heart really, ''really'' loves to abuse anyone for her own sexual desires.
%%* FullContactMagic
%%* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: Please check the trope page to make sure your example fits the current definition.
* GoldAndWhiteAreDivine: Her [[UsefulNotes/SegaDreamcast White Cast]] Processor Unit.
* GoodIsNotSoft: Despite being a part of the [=CPUs=], Iris Heart [[BloodKnight loves to brutalizes her enemies]] via a WhipSword. Plutia herself also has a habit of [[HollywoodVoodoo using her dolls to beat up her enemies]]
* HeroicComedicSociopath: Most of the comedy Iris Heart gets is by her indiscriminately frightening and torturing enemies and allies alike, most of her dialogue consisting of DoubleEntendre jokes and [[CrossesTheLineTwice going above and beyond]] with her behavior. Plutia is no better, as while she still retains her caring aspects, it doesn't stop her from having a macabre sense of humor.
* HollywoodVoodoo: Cheerfully beats up her own dolls to make enemies suffer.
* HypocriticalHumor: Plutia will sometimes laugh at the enemies because they "were spacing out" at the start of battle. Not only does she space out more than the other characters, the "Spacing Out?" challenge is one of her most beneficial ones to work on.
%%* IdenticalStranger: To Neptune.
* IdiotHero: She never intended to become a CPU, she just happened to find the CPU Memory and thought it was candy and ate it.
* ImaginedInnuendo: Iris Heart assumes Nepgear's references to hardware and software are sexual in nature.
* InSeriesNickname: Pururun in the Japanese version, Plutie in the English version. Sadie (English) for Iris Heart, Do S Pururun (Do = Extreme, S = Sadist) for the Japanese version.
* InsistentTerminology: Iris Heart orders her enemies to call her "[[LargeHam Madam Goddess]]".
* InterruptedDeclarationOfLove: [[spoiler: During the true end, while she and Neptune are buried under a ton of dolls, she has something to say but gets cut off by Nepgear and Peashy. By the time she can speak again she gets very non specific, though it's obvious what her original intent was.]]
--> '''Plutia''':[[spoiler: I was just thinking... It's so great that you fell from the sky and into this world. Thanks to you, I made sooooo many more friends, and now the world is at peace. But unless I say it now, it'll be too embarassing...]]
--> '''Plutia''': [[spoiler: Hehehe. Let's be exactly like this from now on, Neppy!]]
%%* ItAmusedMe
* JackOfAllStats: Plutia has overall balanced stats, with an emphasis on Intelligence. Iris Heart is more of a MagicKnight though.
* JekyllAndHyde: A downplayed variant, as while she retains her memories in HDD, her personality becomes extremely different when transformed. As Plutia, she is mild-mannered, approachable, and fun-loving with an occasional sadistic side. As Iris Heart, she's a loud and sadistic VillainProtagonist who loves intimidating and tormenting others.
%%Do not add {{Jerkass}} if at least one of its Sub-Tropes (namely JerkWIthAHeartOfJerk and/or JerkWithAHeartOfGold) are already mentioned%%
* JerkassBall: Plutia has her moments of acting very {{spoiled|Brat}} -- when things don't go her way, she'll ''threaten'' to use her SuperpoweredEvilSide against her allies to get what she wants.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Cruel and dominating as she is, Iris Heart does seem to have a soft spot for people who learned from their mistakes, which is shown in the True Ending and is [[AdaptationalHeroism further emphasized]] in the [[Anime/HyperdimensionNeptuniaTheAnimation anime]]. This isn't always the case though...
** JerkWithAHeartOfJerk: Neptune remarks that Iris Heart was actually showing compassion for Blanc. Plutia reveals that her thoughts at the time were that, as cute as Blanc was while crying, if she were to start by being nice she could make her cry even harder later to be even cuter.
* KarmaHoudini: Iris Heart doesn't get any comeuppance from her actions, with the closet being [[spoiler: her and the rest of he goddesses getting curb stomped by Yellow Heart. And even then, she almost got an ''orgasm'' at the idea. Also in the true ending, when it looks like she'll be overpowered by the dark energy and Neptune is about ready to knock her out, she's saved by Rei Ryghts.]]
* LargeHam: Iris Heart can be rather loud, such as ordering her victims to call her "[[InsistentTerminology Madame Goddess]]".
* LaughingMad: Does this occasionally as Plutia, and quite often as Iris Heart when she is having too much fun with her victims. [[spoiler: Just ask Arfoire.]]
* LeitMotif: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ceAIvwNLgo Iris Heart has her own theme]], and damn is it awesome.
* MagicKnight: While normally Plutia is more of a magic-focused JackOfAllStats, while transformed into Iris Heart, she sacrifices some magical attacks but learns some physical ones, making her fit this role.
* MamaBear: Some of the young children in her care are kidnapped by the villains and when she catches up to the particular villain with the last one, Plutia soon starts speaking in a menacing tone, causing her allies (all of which already changed into their HDD forms) to be rather spooked until she transforms, where she starts breaking out into laughter. After the resulting boss fight, she (as Iris Heart) proceeds to traumatize the villain (with some of it being censored), though this also ends up affecting the kid in question, much to her regret.
* MythologyGag: Just like Neptune [[note]][[UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis Sega Neptune]], a combination Genesis and 32X[[/note]], she's named after an unreleased Sega console [[note]][[UsefulNotes/SegaSaturn Sega Pluto]], a Saturn with a built-in [=NetLink=] modem[[/note]].
* ThePowerOfFriendship: Plutia is a serious believer in this.
* PokeThePoodle: Her "torturing" Histoire is one of her more tamer punishments, as she just removes a bookmark from a book she was reading.
* PrecisionFStrike: Always with [[{{Dominatrix}} Iris Heart]] [[spoiler: but surprisingly, Plutia also calls Arfoire one, hinting that she is [[CuteAndPsycho just as sadistic as Iris Heart]].]]
%%* PurpleIsPowerful
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Her eyes are magenta in both forms and is a sadist. The first time she becomes Iris Heart, her eyes start [[GlowingEyesOfDoom glowing]].
* RotatingProtagonist: Both she and Neptune insist in their Self Intros that they are the main character, and while she insists that not only is she the main character but specifies that [[DecoyProtagonist Neptune is not]] they do actually largely share the role.
* SayItWithHearts: In Japanese version only. Most of her dialogues always ended with tilde (~) due to her slow speaking.
* SheCleansUpNicely: Plutia is normally very cute, but in the bath scene we see her with her hair down and she looks rather stunning.
* ShipperOnDeck: She wants to see a date between Neptune and Noire.
* ShipTease: Some of the official art has her doing this with Noire and Neptune.
* ShockAndAwe: Most of her attacks are electrical. With so many enemies being only vulnerable to Electric attacks this makes here a godsend in many battles.
* SimpletonVoice: She speaks using a dopey drawl
* TheSlacker: Usually skips her goddess duties to go have fun.
* SlapOnTheWristNuke: Like Neptune she has a CoolStarship transformation. When she uses it for Neptune's Plutia HDD [[CombinationAttack Formation Skill]], she subjects the target to a short BulletHell before the two of them fly off into space, and [[OrbitalBombardment fire off a massive laser]] that [[EarthShatteringKaboom blows the whole planet up]]. Iris Heart will [[EvilLaugh laugh about it]] while Plutia will wonder if she went overboard, Neptune tries to get her to understand it's just a dramatization either way.
* {{Sleepyhead}}: Plutia is a napper so much that she can sleep wherever. Even while being carried by Neptune (as Purple Heart).
* {{Stripperific}}: Iris Heart's outfit is [[DressedLikeADominatrix akin to a dominatrix]].
* SuperpoweredEvilSide: During her transformation, she goes from being a sleepy, airheaded and innocent-looking girl into a sadistic, fear-mongering {{Dominatrix}} who mercilessly torments both friend and foe alike.
* SuppressedRage: Plutia admits to bottling up her frustrations, given that [[YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry said frustrations is what usually triggers her transformation]], especially since it comes from her [[MamaBear protecting IF and Compa]], which is enough to make even [[HairTriggerTemper Blanc]] worry. This can be perfectly demonstrated in the scene where she talks to Compa on how she keeps her cool, she responds by pulling out her doll, punching it, throwing it to the ground and then finally ''stepping'' on it.
* TokenEvilTeammate: Iris Heart is apart of the [=CPUs=], but she is a HeroicComedicSociopath and VillainProtagonist who can inflict trauma to anyone, while Plutia herself can be CuteAndPsycho. This gets lampshaded by the other [=CPUs=], were they often point out how weird it is that their ally is more frightening than the enemy.
* VerbalTic: Much like Neptune's "Neppu", Plutia has "pyon", but only when she jumps. She also uses "Puru~" when she gets "[[DullSurprise shocked]]", but she doesn't use it nearly as often as Neptune's "Nepu".
* VillainProtagonist: While she is one of the protagonists in the game, Iris Heart is a threat to both enemies and allies, as she can inflict severe pain that will cause the victim in question to be traumatized for life.
* VoodooDoll: Some of her attacks show that her [[BewareTheNiceOnes sadistic streak is not entirely limited to her Iris Heart persona]] and have her mercilessly beating the crap out of her own dolls. It's the enemies who suffer.
%%* WaveMotionGun: With her ''dolls'' no less!
* WhipOfDominance: While she mostly uses it as a sword in-game, her weapon is a WhipSword, fitting with her being a {{Sadist}} with a {{Dominatrix}}-motif.
* WhipSword: One of Iris Heart's weapons.

[[quoteright:200:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Nepgear-V_1253.jpg]]
* {{BFG}}/{{BFS}}: Her Final CPU Form is a giant version of her HDD weapon.
* BifurcatedWeapon: Her CPU weapon is a sniper rifle blade.
* BrickJoke: [[ItMakesSenseInContext Rock, Paper, Strippers]] shows up in the [[CreativeClosingCredits credits]].
* ButtMonkey:
** Throughout the game, she gets frequently bullied and insulted by everyone around her, including her ''own sister'' (even before the game starts), whether it's getting neglected by Neptune and Plutia or mastering a new ability that notes on how useless she is. Then there's her getting tortured by Iris Heart after she and Vert lost the battle to the rest of the goddesses and [[spoiler: in the Good Ending, she gets stuck in the Ultradimension when Neptune and Plutia were sleeping in the Hyperdimension, [[WhatTheHellHero causing her to snap]].]]
** This gets immediately lampshaded (or {{Foreshadow|ing}}ed) by Neptune in the Basilicom after Nepgear arrives, saying she has the feeling that her sister will be getting the shaft this game.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Her love of technology was only mentioned a couple of times in passing in ''mk2''. As of this game Nepgear got all gooey-eyed when she met Anonydeath because she thought he was a robot, ''very'' briefly considers helping Anonydeath when offered access to his unique technology, and later actually builds a HumongousMecha. [[OutOfCharacterMoment This was oddly never mentioned earlier with Copypaste, CFW Brave, Trick, and Judge, all giant mechas and pinnacles of technology.]]
** Showing that her prior out of character moments were likely due to being able to set her interests aside for safety, so long as she's not being actively tempted,[[spoiler: after Copypaste's HeelFaceTurn she immediately takes an interest in him and requests to dismantle him.]]
* CharacterDevelopment: Mostly PlayedForLaughs but in this game Nepgear becomes a lot more forward, and ill-tempered due to her new ButtMonkey status. Best seen in the Good Ending where she is displaying her dissatisfaction quite clearly, even outright insulting Neptune, which is something she refrained to do previously.
--> '''Histoire:''' You have grown strong, Nepgear.
--> '''Nepgear:''' [[ButtMonkey Not by choice...]]
** [[spoiler: This dialogue however is from the True Ending which fortunately for her, [[ThrowTheDogABone this is the point where the game almost stops treating her from being a butt monkey]]]]
* CosmeticAward: PlayedForLaughs with her own exclusive Affinity System that doesn't really do anything.
* CrutchCharacter: Unlike Neptune, she starts at level 10 instead of 1. She also has the highest STR stat of the entire main cast, easilly beating out her sister and Noire by more than 300+ points. [[spoiler:This eventually backfires on the player though, as she and Vert have to be fought concurrently as bosses in Chapter 4. [[DualBoss And it's not an easy boss fight]].]]
* DemotedToExtra: Nepgear used to be the main character when ''mk2'' came along. Now that her sister is the AscendedExtra, being the main character of ''Victory'', Nepgear isn't as important anymore, which is a ''major source'' of her ButtMonkey status.
* DefiledForever: PlayedForLaughs, of course. After Iris Heart is done punishing her for joining Vert's side, Nepgear laments that she can no longer get married and nobody would want her anymore.
* DistractedByTheSexy: To the point where Nepgear was seriously considering letting Vert be her new sister because her breasts were soft and comfortable (and she still was bitter over the abandonment situation).
* FaceHeelTurn: PlayedForLaughs when she betrays her sister and the other Goddesses to join up with Vert and fight against them. As put by Neptune, she easily believes almost anything anyone says [[labelnote:Explanation]]Vert convinced her that Nepgear is now Ultradimension Vert's little sister because Vert gave her a CPU Memory that came from Leanbox[[/labelnote]].
* FatalFlaw: Envy, her affinity system even confirms it in front of everyone to her dismay. Most of her problems stem from resenting that Neptune has taken the role of the main character from her. This also comes up once Vert starts to neglect her as well in favor of [[spoiler: Peashy]]. It's otherwise been declared as "Franchise/{{Dragonball}} [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments Syndrome]]" by Blanc.
* GadgeteerGenius: Nepgear can pick apart cameras and has her own little technological skills that come in handy when locating Anonydeath. Apparently, Neptune says if she had a mind to, Nepgear could build a HumongousMecha and can turn the entire Basilicom into scraps of metal. She was also fascinated when she thought Anonydeath was a robot, but realized it was just a powersuit.
* GirlyRun: Even more so than Neptune.
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: She develops a ''major'' case of it in this game, with her sister leaving her behind...''twice'', and being unable to be of use to anyone when she ''does'' come back, in addition to being treated like the ButtMonkey. In addition, not even the FourthWall protects her, as her own fanbase (or rather, lack thereof) affects her personally as well.
* HumongousMecha: Builds one for Neptune called the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rdMDDLHodo Atranger]].
* JackOfAllStats: Her skills and stats in battle are very balanced, making her a good fit for any battle role. However, she'll always be outclassed by other, specialized characters filling the same role.
* MsExposition: Does this in the beginning of the game.
* MadScientist: Nepgear has a fondness for creating useful, if extremely dangerous, mechanical contraptions. The producer from ''Producing Perfection'' outright calls her a mad scientist.
* NiceGirl: Much like a prequel, Nepgear is a friendly and kind-hearted girl at heart. Although she is a little more abrasive towards her sister.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: [[spoiler: After distracting Future Histoire, she gets trapped with Neptune to the other dimension.]]
* OhCrap: Between her and Neptune she's the only one who recognizes [[spoiler: Arfoire's strongest form as the same Deity of Sin they killed a few years back.]]
* PrecisionFStrike: Drops her "goodness" to a [[PunctuatedForEmphasis What... the... HELL!]] in the Good Ending where [[spoiler:Plutia trips on Neptune and both [[DisappearsIntoLight disappear from the portal]].]]

* RunningGag: "Nepgear has mastered the X ability!" "X" in this case being a random useless trait, usually something that makes her look bad.
%%* ShrinkingViolet
* SiblingRivalry: But not just with Neptune. Like her sister and Vert taking this dynamic over her, she starts taking this sort of behavior as well toward [[spoiler: Peashy]] over Vert, becoming noticeably irritated when [[spoiler: Peashy]] is the one getting her attention.

* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Gives on during one [[ShowWithinAShow Walletcrusher Nep]], after Neptune has been [[WeAreExperiencingTechnicalDifficulties dragged off the stage]] for mentioning that the medicine [[PottyFailure gives you the runs]] and implying that it was an [[GRatedDrug addicting drug]].

* AmbiguousInnocence: Yellow Heart seems cheery and innocent in personality, but she can inflict extreme violence on anyone, [[spoiler: just like Peashy]].
* AntiVillain: [[MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter She just wants to make "Mommy and Daddy" happy]].
* BirdRun: When [[spoiler:you let her be the party leader,]] she runs like this.
* BadassAdorable: She is pretty cute, and can easily beat just about any other (similarly levelled) CPU in one-on-one combat while she is at full power.
* BoobsOfSteel: She has one of the biggest breasts in the series (moreoso than Vert) as well as being the one of the most powerful of the [=CPUs=] [[spoiler: as a result of being brainwashed by Anonydeath]].
* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler: She gets kidnapped by Anonydeath, is forced to eat a CPU Memory and is made into a living weapon by The Seven Sages to fight the rest of the [=CPUs=]. It's however downplayed as she retains her cheery personality.]]

* CharacterTics: Throwing up her arms when excited, [[spoiler:(a trait carried over from Peashy).]]
* CheerfulChild: She's this since she's always energetic.
* CurbStompBattle: After the initial boss fight, Blanc and Vert question whether or not the other was really trying. This makes her [[IAmNotLeftHanded ask if it's ok to do her best as well]]. She proceeds to blast them with enough force to knock them out of HDD and well out of sight.

* HairAntennae: Sticking out from her ponytail.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: More prominently as [[spoiler: Peashy]] though.
* HeroAntagonist: Serves this role to the rest of the goddesses when she first appears.

[[spoiler: She eventually ditches the "antagonist" part once she joins the goddesses though.]]
* HotBlooded: Be it human or CPU, she loves a good tumble.
* IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight: [[spoiler:A sad example in Chapter 8, where Peashy's "mothers" Neptune and Plutia, along with Iffy, Compa, and Nepgear, try to restore Peashy's memories by showing her things from her childhood. It thankfully works.]]

* ArtificialHuman: Nepgear hears that Big Histy is this.
--> '''Nepgear:''' "She's not a human or a goddess, but I hear she's a manmade super being."
** RobotGirl: Mini Histy on the other hand is a machine that just happens to look like a small fairy girl.
* BerserkButton: She doesn't take comments about her low processing power very lightly.
* CoolAndUnusualPunishment: Iris Heart's method of torturing her is to simply take her bookmark away so she loses her place in a book she's reading.
--> '''Neptune''': "[[LampshadeHanging This is a pretty specific type of torture.]]"
* CuteBookworm
* GreatBigBookOfEverything: Unfortunately it'll take three of whatever unit of time measurement she's using at the moment for her to find any information needed in her, so it's better to just go out and figure things out without her.
* HeadPet: Neptune has a Histy doll that she can wear on her head. [[spoiler: Copypaste uses the real Mini Histy like this as well, which is when her fear of heights is revealed.]]
* InSeriesNickname: Big and Mini Histy for the Hyperdimension and Ultradimension Histoires, though they are both shortened even further, to just Histy, when they don't need to specify which.
* OurFairiesAreDifferent: She's also a book.
* NerdGlasses: Wears them in one section. And it really does look adorable.
* PrecisionFStrike: [[InSeriesNickname Mini-Histy]] comes close, ''very'' close, to calling Neptune a "bitch" before actually censoring herself. This is because Nep-Nep insulted her greatest insecurity, her low processing power.
* RuleOfThree: Three hours, three days, three months, whatever unit of time she measures in, she always takes three of it to get anything done.
* SnapBack: She shares her habit of talking with emotes with her [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptunia Super Dimension]] counterpart.
* VoiceWithAnInternetConnection: Mini Histy, though it only comes up once, to yell at Neptune and Plutia about complaining about dungeons dividing the countries.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: [[spoiler:Even she felt that Tari's citizens had every reason to turn against [[GodSaveUsFromTheQueen Rei]].]]
* EvilCounterpart: Croire is to Rei what Histoire is to the protagonists, right down to having the same Japanese voice actress. She gets annoyed that Neptune and Plutia keep calling her "Darksty" even after introducing herself.
* ForTheEvulz: Her only concern is to stir trouble.
* GreatBigBookOfEverything: Same as Histoire. Though unlike Histoire, who's role is to simply record history, Croire insists that her role is to make sure that it's interesting.
* InsistentTerminology: Any time her nicknames pop up she makes it a point to correct whoever said it.
* {{Irony}}: Her role in the story is to stir trouble and watch from afar as to how it unfolds. [[spoiler: In the True Ending, ''she's the one who gets trapped'' by Ultradimension Neptune in a bottle to be examined as a specimen. Doubles as a LaserGuidedKarma.]]
* KarmaHoudiniWarranty: [[spoiler:Despite helping the BigBad for [[ItAmusedMe her own amusement]], she's able to get away in the Good Ending, intent on causing more trouble in other dimensions where the [=CPUs=] can't reach her.

* OurFairiesAreDifferent: She's also a book.
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: She was around when [[spoiler:Rei became a [=CPU=]]] millennia ago, and because of her dimension hopping, it's not even clear if she's originally from the Ultradimension.

* BadassBoast: Can deliver one at the start of boss fights, while still showing that she's [[OvershadowedByAwesome aware of the difference between herself and the]] [[OurDragonsAreDifferent dragons]], [[PhysicalGod goddesses]], and [[MiniMecha machines]] she's facing.
--> I '''will''' defeat you. [[BrokeYourArmPunchingOutCthulhu Even if it demands my own death]].

* {{Magitek}}: She's a scientist and a mage. She also is the one who made 5pb.'s magic guitars.
* MustHaveCaffeine: The drink of the chosen, [[BlandNameProduct Duck Tear Popper]]. [[SeriousBusiness The most beloved of all carbonated beverages throughout history by scientists and magicians.]]
* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: She names many of her staffs quite elaborately, Neptune renamed them so they would fit.
--> '''Wood Staff''': "She actually calls it 'Staff of the World Tree Birthing Principle.' but she clearly forgot about character limits, so Neptune summed it up."
--> '''Dark Staff''': "'Um, seriously, just call it something simpler. Nobody knows what a Principle of Jet Black Soul Migration Staff is.' - Neptune"
* RobeAndWizardHat: Well, a Suit-Robe And Wizard Hat to be precise.
* TrademarkFavoriteFood: She loves [[BlandNameProduct Duck Tear Popper]], to the point where she has her own stash of the stuff back home.
* UncannyFamilyResemblance: She's 5pb.'s relative. She looks like 5pb. dressed up like a mage.

!! Creator/CyberConnect2
-->Voiced by: Creator/MasumiAsano (Japanese), Creator/DorothyEliasFahn (English)
* AmbiguouslyBrown
* BigEater: Implied; her character-exclusive events with Blanc and Nepgear (JP version) has her talking about her favorite foods in different parts of Gamindustry.
* [[AnimalEaredHeadband Dog Eared Hat]]: Barring color differences, the hat she wears is almost one-to-one with Red Savarin's, the protagonist in another game from [=CyberConnect2=]'s catalogue called ''{{VideoGame/Solatorobo}}''.
* CrutchCharacter: Assuming no other DLC characters are purchased, [=CyberConnect2=] joins your party in Chapter 1 with the highest STR stat (only being displaced by Vert and Nepgear later in chapter 4) and a starting weapon that boasts a HUGE horizontal range. Heck, she might very well qualify for One-Girl Army for a good third of the entire game.
* DualWielding: She fights with a pair of daggers.
* {{Expy}}: Has quite a few visual similarities to [[Franchise/DotHack .hack//]] characters. Notably [=BlackRose=], with similarly placed and shaded tattoos, tanned skin, and light hair, as well as Kite's combat style. One of her outfits changes her color scheme to Haseo's.
** Her rage issues can be seen as something akin to [[VideoGame/AsurasWrath Asura]], another notable character from [=CyberConnect2=].
* GlassCannon: Classic example with abysmal VIT and HP growth combined with high STR stats, which puts her out of contention where bossfights are concerned.
* GogglesDoNothing: Just like with the hat, the goggles are also a reference to Red's design. However, here the goggles are purely cosmetic, unlike in ''Solatorobo'' where there are a few artwork of Red using them for their intended purpose.
* InSeriesNickname: In the English version: [=CC2=] in NISA's translation, Cybercon in IFI's translation.
* LittleBitBeastly: She sports a canine tail, again, referencing Red's [[spoiler:default]] appearence as a [[FunnyAnimal Caninu]].
* {{Otaku}}: Her character-exclusive events with Neptune and Vert reveal that she loves reading manga and playing video games.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Her eyes are naturally green, but have her take too nasty a beating in combat and she will invoke this in the victory scene. And it's not a very nice sight. Also invoked in a character-exclusive event with Noire, when she loses herself to rage.

!! VideoGame/{{Tekken}}
-->Voiced by: Creator/MikakoKomatsu (Japanese), Creator/SherryLynn (English)
* BadassAdorable
* CuteBruiser
* FashionableAsymmetry
* GlassCannon: Portrayed as such in the cutscenes. Her attacks are very strong, but she's also very frail and gets hurt easily. Her masochism helps to deal with this.
* GoodOldFisticuffs
* SupernaturalMartialArts: Her [[BlowYouAway Fujin]] and [[ShockAndAwe Raijin]] fist skills.
* TooKinkyToTorture: She's a masochist, and when it starts to come up while training with Nepgear the extent to which Tekken [[CombatSadomasochist enjoys being beaten on]] disturbs her enough to call it quits and suggest Tekken start training with Plutia instead.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:Villains]]
!! Tropes relating to all of them:
* [[BigBadDuumvirate Big Bad Septumvirate]]: They all have their own different agendas but they do agree that the CPU goddesses should not exist at all.
* HeelFaceTurn: Several of them undergo one. Namely, [[spoiler:''everybody'' except for Arfoire (who just gives up on outright villainy) and [[EnemyMine maybe Anonydeath]]. Abnes defects when she finds out what the Sages are really up to, Copypaste's reprogrammed personality allows hiim to befriend the main characters, Pirachu doesn't so much defect as just blindly obey any request Compa makes, Badd quits so he can lead a normal life with his "daughters" (and tries to make amends by turning them back to human), Peashy regains her memories, and Rei (both of them) has some sense permanently slapped into her.]]

!!Magiquone / Arfoire
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/ChiakiTakahashi (Japanese), Creator/LauraPost (English)
[[quoteright:165:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/cead95b4a2974c919a059104a7fe00a8_9512.png]]
* ArtificialStupidity: Arfoire will typically fixate on killing a single party member before moving on to another, that unfortunate character appears to be randomly chosen though the English version seems to put a slight preference toward Neptune.
* BerserkButton: Neptune's mere name is enough to annoy the hell out of Arfoire; the connection between the old world and the different world of the other dimension hasn't helped at all. Also getting called old.
* BigBadWannabe: In a first for the series, Arfoire is ''not'' the true threat, in spite of her efforts to the contrary. [[spoiler:That honor would go to Rei, or at least the [[DrunkWithPower HDD form]] of ''both'' Reis]].
* CallToAgriculture: [[spoiler:In the true end she's the owner of an eggplant farm.]]
* TheChewToy: Becomes this due to the below-mentioned VillainDecay. Nothing really works out for her to go smoothly as she planned, from being partnered up with Copypaste [[spoiler: whose personality was rewritten by [[TheHedonist Anonydeath]] to spew out friendship speeches]] to getting [[spoiler: traumatized by [[HeroicComedicSociopath Iris Heart]], even in her dreams.]] To rub further salt to the wound, her battle theme during her [[DuelBoss fight with Neptune]] is a remixed version of the first game's ''Gamindustri's Comic Relief''.
* CompositeCharacter: She's a combination of the first game's Arfoire and ''mk2'''s Underling.
* DigitalPiracyIsEvil: The personification of this.
* DubNameChange: Magiquone in Japan, which is their equivalent of the R4.
* DullEyesOfUnhappiness: [[spoiler: She has these after what Iris Heart does to her.]]
* EvenEvilHasStandards: [[spoiler: Somewhat. She disapproves of the plan to kidnap children and everything that comes of it, but she goes along with it anyway.]]
* HeartIsAnAwesomePower: [[spoiler: After figuring out that Neptune is highly disturbed by eggplants she goes out of her way to get the powers of eggplants. [[CrazyEnoughToWork It actually works for her for awhile]], until she goes so far as to take on the form of a giant winged eggplant at which point Neptune just finds the situation so [[CrossesTheLineTwice completely absurd that it just stops phasing her]].]]
* HopelessBossFight: In your first fight against her with Neptune and Noire, before either of them became [=CPUs=].
** In a NewGamePlus you can win the fight, though the rewards aren't that great and the story assumes you lost still.
* IWorkAlone: She dislikes collaborating with others…
** VillainTeamUp: …But she likes the idea of the Seven Sages pushing aside the Goddesses, so she joins them.
* ObviouslyEvil: Aside from the fact that she's dressed like a witch, the players have ''seen'' Arfoire before, from the original game, so they know she's evil. Which makes it surprising that [[spoiler: she's not the main villain this time.]]
* OmnicidalManiac: She never gets to act on it, but when she finally leaves the Seven Sages she comments on how she's always wanted "to destroy all". Pirachu points out how that and the way she's speaking make no sense.
* ToThePain: She threatens to tear out Pirachu's organs and feed them to piranhas while making him watch while he dies.
%%* RedEyesTakeWarning
* ShapeshifterBaggage: She dislikes taking her strongest form due to [[VainSorceress how hideous it is]]. Noire also points out the more realistic problem, that it makes her a [[ClippedWingAngel massive target]].
* SparedByTheAdaptation: [[spoiler:She is the first Arfoire to make it through a game alive, and with a relatively happy ending to boot.]]
* VillainDecay: Becomes less and less threatening in every confrontation. To the point where she [[spoiler:runs away without even fighting you]] and then [[spoiler:fuses with an eggplant only to be beaten by Neptune while the latter was alone.]] Compared to the previous Arfoire(s), this one really fails to measure up.
* VillainousBSOD: [[spoiler:Iris Heart punishes her for kidnapping IF by whipping her so thoroughly that she's reducing to gibberish and giggles with a blank face. She continues to have nightmares about it for years.]]
* VitriolicBestBuds: Whether either will admit it or not, Pirachu and Arfoire actually share this dynamic, and despite their bickering, really are friends, with Pirachu actually willing to stand up to the [=CPUs=] to let Arfoire flee from Plutia. Even the [=CPUs=] were touched by this.

!!Warechu / Pirachu
-->'''Voiced by:''' Neeko (Japanese) Unknown (English, games), Sara Ragsdale (English, anime)
[[quoteright:190:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/f7f95826ed7867ba7bf1afb6cb091192_3972.png]]
* BrickJoke: Several chapters, and a bit over 10 years, after the Seven Sages have gotten to show off their [[BossSubtitles special logos]], he finally gets to do his hoping that maybe the [=CPUs=] would show him some mercy because of it. [[ThrowTheDogABone They actually were willing to do so]], [[YankTheDogsChain except for Iris Heart]].
* CallToAgriculture: [[spoiler:In the true end he works for Arfoire on her eggplant farm.]]
* TheChewToy
* ClusterFBomb: A variant. He is foul-mouthed without restraint.
* CornerOfWoe: A variation at the end of chapter 2, when he tries and fails to announce his name and get his own {{Boss Subtitle|s}} to appear. The game has him standing in the corner of the screen, sadly looking down to the ground while the CPU's, at that moment still recovering from [[LargeHam Copypaste's]] [[NoIndoorVoice introduction]], eventually note he looks depressed.
* DubNameChange: Was Warechu (as in ''Warez'') in Japan. His name was retained in ''[=Re;Birth3=]''
* HeelFaceRevolvingDoor: He will jump at the chance to work for the [=CPUs=] if Iris Heart is making the request in order to avoid her wrath, but always goes back to the Seven Sages once he gets away from her. Once Compa grows up he settles for working with the [=CPUs=] to stay near her.
* FragileSpeedster: Unless you've gone out of your way to over level or gear specifically for accuracy expect most of your attacks to never connect. Those that do though bring him down quite quickly compared to most bosses.
* FromNobodyToNightmare: Pirachu became a member of the Seven Sages almost without noticing.
%%* GenreSavvy
* InsistentTerminology: Not [[FantasticSlurs Rat]], not Mouse, ''Pirachu''. No one listens.
* IWarnedYou: [[spoiler: He tried to get Mister Badd to hurry up and just make his announcement so that he (Warechu) could go home because he knew and said as much that the [=CPUs=] would find some way to escape and come after them. While Mister Badd is trying to tell him that it's just impossible, Plutia shows up midsentence.]]
--> '''Warechu''': "Sonofabitch! I -knew- it!"
* KillerRabbit: Averted. Pirachu's combat abilities aren't that great. He can deal out surprisingly high damage and can be somewhat hard to hit if the team's accuracy is low, but compared to the other Seven Sages he goes down quick.
* {{Mascot}}: Claims to be one of three in the mouse world.
* TheNicknamer: At least to the females in the Seven Sages. Pirachu calls Rei "Mature woman" and Arfoire "Middle-aged lady". The latter...isn't amused.
* NotSoHarmlessVillain: While he was just part of the QuirkyMiniBossSquad in ''mk2'', his Ultradimension version is part of the [[BigBadDuumvirate Seven Sages.]]
* TheRuntAtTheEnd: Compared to the other Seven Sages.
* UselessUsefulSpell: He has the ability to inflict the [[KryptoniteFactor Virus status]]. The only fight against him has the [=CPUs=] locked into HDD, making for a hilarious [[InvertedTrope inversion]] of ContractualBossImmunity.
* VerbalTic: "Chu" in the Japanese version, as the sound of mice.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Whether either will admit it or not, Pirachu and Arfoire actually share this dynamic, and despite their bickering, really are friends, with Pirachu actually willing to stand up to the [=CPUs=] to let Arfoire flee from Plutia. Even the [=CPUs=] were touched by this.
* YouShallNotPass: When Arfoire is trembling uncontrollably in fear of Plutia, Pirachu urges her to escape while he holds back the [=CPUs=]. They're so moved that he was hoping that be able to avoid a fight... too bad for him that Iris Heart isn't that compassionate...

!! Abnes
-->'''Voiced by:''' Yui Shoji (Japanese), Creator/StephanieSheh (English)
[[quoteright:190:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/43efb24dd3fe880f17f40e045c1251b3_1780.png]]
* BoomerangBigot: She thinks a nation run by girls can't be successful. She's a girl herself.
* TheCape: Before joining the Seven Sages, Abness would normally go around the world protecting little girls.
%%* ElegantGothicLolita
* FriendToAllChildren: Specifically little girls, whose safety she prioritizes over everything else.
* InsaneTrollLogic: Abnes thinks that, because she's on a mission to protect all the little girls in the world, she's always right, and anyone who stands in her way is a "big pedophile" and a "gross fetishist". Naturally, there's something off about her logic.
* HeroAntagonist: [[spoiler:She's just very, very misled.]]
* InsaneTrollLogic: During her introductory scene, she offers this gem of an explanation for her being right:
-->I'm on a mission to protect every child in the whole wide world! That means I am in the right. Therefore, all who oppose me are big pedophiles and gross weirdos.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Since she's the public face of the group [[PlausibleDeniability often getting questioned about what their goals are]], and [[TokenGoodTeammate would object to most of the things they do]], the rest of the Seven Sages leave her out of a lot of the planning.
* MoralGuardians: One of her main issues with the Goddesses is the sort of influence they have on children
* MyCountryRightOrWrong: Defied. She has strong doubts on a system of nations ruled by girls that have become Goddesses, and such joined the Seven Sages.
* NotWhatISignedOnFor: [[spoiler: When she finds out the Seven Sages have been the ones behind all the kidnappings over the last several years she [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere immediately bails]] and [[HeelFaceTurn informs the CPUs of where they'd been keeping the kids.]]]]
* ObviouslyEvil: She wears ''skulls''. [[spoiler: Though it turns out she's not evil.]]
* OlderThanSheLooks
* SkeletonsInTheCoatCloset: Like Rei, she wears skulls on her dress.
* TokenMiniMoe
* ThereWasADoor: Played with. Whenever she appears, she slams open a door, yelling out "Ga-thunk!", even in the Seven Sages' base.
** There's an exception during her NotWhatISignedOnFor moment, where she just comes in like a normal person.
* TheUnfought: She's the only one of the Seven Sages you never fight.
* VerbalTic: Most of her sentences contain the term "little girls".
* WellIntentionedExtremist

!! Anonydeath
-->'''Voiced by:''' Yuki Fujiwara (Japanese), Creator/DavidVincent (English)
[[quoteright:176:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/c5b5673b4ee8841714a165495685b3ad_2303.png]]
* AgentPeacock: Is male, but considers himself a little girl.
* DeadMansSwitch: He manages to escape the [=CPUs=] by telling them that if he dies all of the embarrassing footage he has of Noire will be released worldwide. As soon as he's safe, he informs them that [[ILied he lied]] about it.
* EffeminateVoice: He has a very flamboyant tone with feminine speech patterns.
* TheEvilGenius: In charge of intelligence.
* TheFaceless: [[TwentyFourHourArmor He never leaves his suit]] so no one has ever seen what he really looks like. [[spoiler: And even when he ''did'', he only appeared as a silhouette, so to the player, he's ''still'' faceless.]]
* FlunkyBoss: He comes with several small robots that [[UnexpectedGameplayChange disable various commands]] until you manage to kill them off.
* HealingFactor[=/=]WeCanRebuildHim: Since only his armor is taking damage, he can repair and upgrade it to return for later battles. He is also the one who repairs Copypaste after he explodes.
* TheHedonist: He just… does what he wants.
* HollywoodHacking: PlayedWith. His hacking of computers is all fairly realistic, [[VeryLooselyBasedOnATrueStory having been based on actual events]], all he had to do was observe and record Noire while she worked to gain access to Lastation's network. However he can also apparently hack people to observe and [[FakeMemories rewrite their memories]].
* ItAmusedMe: If it's fun, he'll do it. This is more or less his only reason for having joined the Seven Sages.
* KarmaHoudini: [[spoiler:In the end, the [=CPUs=] never get to properly pummel him for what he's done to [[BrainwashedAndCrazy Peashy]].]]
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Anony'''death'''.
** Consider the group Anonymous and his entire name could count.
* NonActionBigBad: It is confirmed that Anonydeath seldom fights openly.
** Though he does mention he can configure himself to a more combat oriented role, however doing so would cause him to lose his current suit's slim figure.
* PoweredArmor: That looks like an Eva.
* PrettyBoy: [[spoiler:Outside his armor, Anonydeath is apparently ''very'' cute, enough to make pretty much every Goddess in the Basilicom comment on it, and Noire having to snap them out of it by [[AmbiguouslyGay reminding them it's a man]].]]
* ReformedButRejected: [[spoiler:In the true end he found a way to reverse the failed CPU transformations, yet is still considered a creep.]]
* {{Troll}}: Quite possibly the only reason Anonydeath would alter Copypaste's personality as he did and ''then'' pair him up with Arfoire, [[spoiler:and give Rei the task of being Peashy's "mother"]]. This side of him also shows through in his reactions with Noire.
* VillainousCrush: On Noire.

!! Copilyace/Copypaste
-->'''Voiced by:''' Daisuke Kusunoki (Japanese), Creator/PatrickSeitz (English)
[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/136905_486.png]]
* AwesomenessByAnalysis: He gains powers by copying software.
** PowerupLetdown: …However, since his abilities are low, he can only copy old ROM cartridges.
* TheBrute: He's the self-proclaimed strongest amongst the Seven Sages, but his intelligence is horrible.
* DefeatEqualsExplosion
* DubNameChange: From Copilyace to Copypaste.
* DumbMuscle: Apparently not too bright, especially when compared to the other Seven Sages.
** SophisticatedAsHell: [[spoiler:A variation. After being repaired from his first defeat, Copypaste begins to talk in a proper manner...while he still destroys things.]]
* {{Expy}}: Of [[VideoGame/BlazBlue Ragna the Bloodedge]] Hell, they're both voiced by the same guy.
* GlassCannon: [[spoiler:After being rebuilt by Lowee, Blanc admits that they rushed it and just redid his shell with paper-mache, so he wouldn't last in a fight anymore.]]
* HeadPet: After being rebuilt he has a tendency to do this with smaller characters. [[spoiler: Specifically after being rebuilt in Lowee. Histoire, Ram, and Rom all get this treatment. Only the twins enjoy it.]]
* HealingFactor / WeCanRebuildHim: As mentioned in Anonydeath's section. Since he is a machine he can be repaired.
* HeelFaceDoorSlam: [[spoiler: Due to his change in personality after his initial repairs, he starts to get along with the citizens of Lowee when they show him how to destroy things in a helpful manner. While they're in the middle of convincing him to leave the Seven Sages Blanc shows up to make him pay for damages done to Lowee and [[WhatTheHellHero kills him despite everyone's protest]]. Then it gets {{Subverted}} a couple chapters later. Lowee had him rebuilt during the 10 year TimeSkip and he has been working for Blanc since.]]
* HumongousMecha: Resembles something straight out of Getter Robo.
* LargeHam: He's so loud and boisterous that his self-introduction briefly deafens the [=CPUs=] so they can't hear Pirachu's attempt to display his own name.
* SpikesOfVillainy
* TankGoodness: Well, his lower half anyway
* TrueCompanions: [[spoiler:After being fixed by Anonydeath, Copypaste seems to value the PowerOfFriendship, sayings friends are valuable things.]]

* TheAllegedBoss: It's easy to forget that she's supposed to be the leader of the Seven Sages given how much they push her around.
* ApocalypseHow: [[spoiler:Ultradimension Rei caused a Regional Class 2, [[OmnicidalManiac Hyperdimension Rei]] attempts a Multiversal one, Class 5 or 6.]]
* ApologizesAlot: She will often apologize and eventually run away, even when she technically didn't do anything wrong, like during her attempted rally.
* TheAtoner: [[spoiler:In the True Ending, Ultradimension Rei finally learns to take responsibility for her actions and came to rescue Iris Heart from her power trying to posses the latter. She also reforms the Seven Sages into a better organization.]]
* AxCrazy: [[spoiler:She becomes ''absolutely insane'' when she becomes DrunkWithPower. Blanc even calls her a psycho, much to her anger.]]
-->[[spoiler: '''Rei:''' Who's a psycho!? Everyone around me keeps saying that, but I'm correct! I embody propriety!]]
* BerserkButton:
** Rather ironically, she doesn't like being called a "[[IResembleThatRemark psycho]]", nor does she take pity from a Goddess, as [[spoiler: Neptune]] learned the hard way.
** [[spoiler: Peashy finds out that reminding her in any way of [[OldMaid her age]] proves to be one while the HDD personality is in control. Part of her tirade at the [=CPU=]s becomes about how she's never dated a man, will never marry, and has never had a child, after Peashy continues to call her Mommy.]]
* BewareTheNiceOnes: More so than Plutia. She's a timid NiceGirl who gets bullied a lot by the rest of the cast. [[spoiler: Then she becomes an [[AxCrazy murderous]] OminicidalManiac in HDD]].
* BigBad: [[spoiler: Her Ultradimension counterpart serves as this, as she is responsible for [[UsefulNotes/TheGreatVideoGameCrashOf1983 The Great Crash]] that lead to the death of her citizens as well as forming a group dedicated to eliminating the goddesses.]]
* BoomerangBigot: [[spoiler:HDD Rei is constantly ranting about how awful [=CPUs=] are despite being one herself.]]
* CorruptTheCutie: [[spoiler: Croire gives her dark energy to regain her powers. [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity It works out too well]].]]
* CurbStompBattle: [[spoiler:Dishes this out to the three CPU goddesses of the Hyperdimension Gamindustri in the Good Ending Route.]]
* CuteAndPsycho: In her normal form, she is a shy lady who is [[ExtremeDoormat pushed around by everyone]]. [[spoiler:In her HDD form, she is a tyrannical PsychopathicWomanchild who murder anyone who gets in her way.]]
* DarkAndTroubledPast: [[spoiler:Because of her tyrannical rule, the Tari land collapsed, leading her to believe that the CPU system should not exist in the first place.]]
* DePower: [[spoiler:Apparently suffered this in the Ultradimension timeline. This leads to...]]
** RePower: [[spoiler:She sent a fragment of her power over to the Hyperdimension timeline, who sends some of the power back to her and she gets HDD again, though apparently she's nowhere near as strong as she no longer has any worshippers.]]
* DimensionalTraveler: [[spoiler:A unique trait to her [=CPU=] powers compared to normal, she's able to distort and pierce through to other dimensions. She created the hole between the Hyperdimension and Ultradimension to send Neptune away. Hyperdimension Rei was utterly elated when she found out she was the one who made the Goddess go away after that.]]
* DrunkWithPower: [[spoiler:As soon as she gains superpowers, Rei slips into this ''very'' quickly.]]
* DubNameChange: Downplayed; Her ''surname'' is changed from "Kiseijou" to "Ryghts".
* EntitledBitch: [[spoiler:As the [=CPU=] of Tari, she believed that her citizens were obligated to worship her 24/7, and would casually go out and kill anyone who had a problem with her. When an angry mob eventually tried to oust her, she decided to just destroy everything rather than reflect on her tyranny.]]
* ExoticEyeDesigns: [[spoiler:When in HDD form, she has a symbol in her eyes like the CPU, however, it's not the power symbol. More specifically, the symbol looks like a triangle with an exclamation mark going through the bottom of the triangle; kind of like a warning symbol.]]
* ExtremeDoormat: She can't stand up to herself and gets walked over by everyone.
* EvilFeelsGood: When she sent Neptune into the past, what was her first reaction? A SlasherSmile and gloating that she was actually to successfully do something of such magnitude. Given her earlier appearances, you actually have to be happy for her. [[spoiler:And it's also a good CallBack because this was her reaction when she first got her powers thousands of years ago.]]
* EvilIsHammy: [[spoiler:HDD Rei is such a hysterical, ranting lunatic that others can hardly believe that she's the same person as the ShrinkingViolet that they're used to.]]
* EvilLaugh: [[spoiler:Does this quite often later on in the game and she does them beautifully and menacingly.]]
* FallenAngel: [[spoiler: Downplayed. She was a former Goddess of the long-gone nation of Tari. Once she got her powers however, she became deranged, turning against her civilians and led to The Great Crash that resulted in the deaths of millions and destruction of her nation. This leads her into becoming the BigBad of ''Victory''.]]
* FromNobodyToNightmare: When Rei gets [[spoiler:her HDD form,]] her personality completely changes from a timid woman to [[spoiler:an AxCrazy tyrant. The Hyperdimension Rei [[OmnicidalManiac goes even further]].]]
* TheGlassesComeOff: [[spoiler:In her HDD form, see TookALevelInBadass below. The effect is… unnerving to say the least.]]
* GenreSavvy: Is well aware that one should not swallow a floating mass of dark energy. Not that is helps her much…
* GhostMemory: [[spoiler:Hyperdimension Rei ends up getting the memories of the Ultradimension Rei mixed with her own when she receives her powers. The sudden addition of several thousand years of memory from a completely different world are implied to be why she's so much further off the deep end than the one she received the power from.]]
* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: [[spoiler:What she was a long time ago, where she was a tyrannical ruler who was responsible for The Great Crash, resulting in her people rebelling against her.]]
* GrewASpine: [[spoiler:By the end of the game, she's learned to channel her HDD persona to actually make the remaining Sages take her seriously.]]
* HornedHumanoid: Wears a horn-like accessory on the [[FashionableAsymmetry left side of her head]]. [[spoiler:Gains a matching one on the right side in her [=CPU=] form.]]
* {{Hypocrite}}: [[spoiler:HDD Rei is constanlty ranting about how bad [=CPUs=] are (even their {{Stripperific}} outfits [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking annoy her]]) while refusing to acknowledge her own tyrannical behavior (her outfit is just as revealing as the average [=CPU=], by the way).]]
* IJustWantToBeNormal: [[spoiler:After gaining her powers, she becomes so ruthless that by the time she caused The Great Crash, she doesn't want to be a CPU anymore. Thus, her starting the Seven Sages group.]]
* IncomingHam[=/=]ChewingTheScenery: Her first boss fight's pre-dialogue. It is one ''the longest'' scenes in the game. [[spoiler:She sums up her past history, complains about the other [=HDDs=], makes many statements about why she thinks she is right, and so on.]]
%%* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: [[spoiler:Mostly.]]
* InsaneTrollLogic: [[spoiler:When her timid personality fades away, Rei ''breathes'' this trope, in constant denial of everyone who has a far more accurate view, and believing the world to be wrong simply because she says it is.]]
* InTheEndYouAreOnYourOwn: Due to the efforts of the [=CPU=]s, all the Seven Sages were defeated, and the organization crumbled, leaving Rei by herself. You really do pity the girl as she delves deeper into her self-deprecating attitude.
* IronicEcho: She pushes for the fact that there should be no more goddesses [[spoiler:only to find out that she's an [[AmnesiacGod Amnesiac Goddess]] herself (and the ''first one'' no less), though with most of her powers gone.]]
* ItMeantSomethingToMe: When Anonydeath finally leaves the Seven Sages her immediate concern is that their pretend marriage is what's ending not that he's leaving the group.
* ItsAllAboutMe: [[spoiler:As HDD Rei, she rants about how the CPU system, and even the entire world, are flawed and [[OmnicidalManiac need to be reset]] because she didn't get her way. Uni even Lampshades this in the true ending.]]
--> '''Uni''': [[spoiler:So after all this, you were just thinking of yourself? Like a big self-pity party?]]
* JekyllAndHyde: A more accurate example [[spoiler: when comparing her normal and HDD forms. As normal Rei, she is [[ShrinkingViolet meek]] and gentle woman with a tendency to [[ApologizesALot apologize a lot]]. As HDD Rei, she’s a [[LargeHam loud]], [[AxCrazy murderoulsy insane]] tryant who becomes DrunkWithPower.]]
* LegendFadesToMyth: Once Rei explains [[spoiler:who she is and what lead her to do everything she had,]] Blanc informs her that [[spoiler:the former nation of Tari has become considered nothing more than a myth and warning for [=CPUs=] to understand that they serve their people not the other way around.]]
* MoeAnthropomorphism: [[spoiler:Of the UsefulNotes/{{Atari 2600}}, with all the [[UsefulNotes/TheGreatVideoGameCrashOf1983 tragedy]] that would imply.]]

* MisunderstoodLonerWithAHeartOfGold: Played with. Rei is an entirely innocent girl who just thinks she can improve the world better if it's a little more orderly and the Goddesses don't reign supreme. Sadly, no one listens to her, despite all the hard work she does. [[spoiler: Turns out [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone there's a good reason why she acts that way]].]]
* NeverMyFault: [[spoiler:Ultradimension Rei initially doesn't accept that it was her HDD personality that caused The Great Crash, but that it was simply the concept of [=CPUs=] in general, so she starts the Seven Sages. She gets over it.]]
* NoSenseOfDirection: She doesn't know where she's going at times.
--> '''Neptune''': By any chance, were you running ever since yesterday? If so, then that's amazing! Wow, you have an awesome [[LampshadeHanging sense of no direction]]!
* ObviouslyEvil: She wears ''skulls''.
* TheOlderImmortal: [[spoiler:Out of all the Goddesses in the game, Neptune and her crew from the Hyperdimension would most likely be the oldest, followed by Blanc from the Ultradimension, who appears to be a few centuries old. Vert, Peashy, and Noire don't top more than a few decades. ''Rei'' on the other hand, is ''several thousand years old'', having been a Goddess for far longer than any of the main characters. She has the power to show it.]]
* OlderThanSheLooks: Despite her age of nearing 30, she looks closer to twenty. [[spoiler: That's not even getting into the whole thousands year old former goddess thing]]
* OldMaid: Approaching her 30s, and claims to be too old to marry. [[spoiler: Or more specifically for Ultradimension Rei ''was'' approaching her 30s, and is now simply stuck looking that way despite being several thousand years old.]]
* OmnicidalManiac: [[spoiler:In the True Ending, HDD Rei wants to destroy everything for not going her way.]]
* PsychopathicWomanchild: [[spoiler:Her HDD rants may remind the player of a spiteful kid who just got his favorite toy taken away from her.]]
* PutThemAllOutOfMyMisery: [[spoiler:HDD Rei believes that the [[BoomerangBigot CPU system]] (and even [[OmnicidalManiac the entire world]] in the True Ending) need to be eliminated because they made ''her'' unhappy (never mind that she was a self-absorbed tyrant who was entirely to blame for her own nation's downfall).]]
* RealityWarper: [[spoiler:Can open portals to the past, as mentioned above]].
* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: [[spoiler:Ultradimension Rei is the oldest goddess no less, by her own count anywhere between thousands and tens of thousands of years old.]]
* ShrinkingViolet: She is this in ''spades''. From her [[ApologizesALot apologising for things that weren't even her fault]] to being [[ExtremeDoormat walked over by almost everyone]].
* SkeletonsInTheCoatCloset: Downplayed, but she wears a skull as a belt buckle of sorts, and on her arm guards.
* SlasherSmile: A rather scary one when she sends Neptune to the past, since it is obviously the first time she's succeeded in anything. [[spoiler:She gains it again when she becomes a Goddess. Both times, it is ''very'' off-putting.]]
* StrawNihilist: [[spoiler:Rei deems the world to be utterly wrong. However, she rejects the ultimate conclusion that nothing matters - vowing to change the world to how ''she'' wants it.]]
* SuperPrototype: [[spoiler:Ultradimension Rei was the very first Goddess in her timeline apparently. She's also one of the strongest characters in the Neptunia universe story-wise.]]
* SuperpoweredEvilSide: When DrunkWithPower, her personality undergoes a ''drastic'' change from a shy, frail ExtremeDoormat in civilian form [[spoiler: to a overbearing, powerhungry dictator who will annihilate anyone who gets in her way in HDD.]]
* TerribleArtist: After she [[spoiler: is defeated in the Ultradimension universe and her personality returns to normal]], Rei attempts to provide background on [[spoiler: how she became a [=CPU=]]]. To aid her, she provides a visual aid she drew, except the art is so incomprehensible to everyone, even to the player much to Neptune's concern, that all anyone can do is laugh at it. [[HilarityEnsues Then it's revealed that she drew several of them]].
* TookALevelInBadass: [[spoiler:Hyperdimension Rei gained her badassery after Croire gives her powers from the Ultradimension Rei, who in turn sent some of that power back so that one could regain hers. To put it simply, they ''ping-pong'ed'' this trope.]]
* TrueFinalBoss: [[spoiler:Surprisingly, instead of Magiquone/Arfoire who usually fills this role in the first two games.]]
* {{Underboobs}}: [[spoiler:Just like Vert, in her HDD form]].
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Oddly enough, despite being the BigBad, she's also this. [[spoiler:She never intended to cause her alternate self to go OmnicidalManiac. She only wanted to help her be more confident and assertive, and that ended up working a little too well.]]
* VillainousRescue: [[spoiler:In the true end Plutia tries to dominate Rei's power after beating it out of Hyperdimension Rei, and was quickly failing and at risk of having their combined power and madness. After Neptune implies she's ready to MercyKill Plutia if she fails, Ultradimension Rei steps in and takes her power back and finally gets control over it.]]
* VitriolicBestBuds: Thinking back on the good times with the rest of the sages, all that comes up is being ridiculed over and over again. Some of them later admit that, while she was fairly incompetent, being part of her group wasn't all that bad. [[spoiler: This helps explain how even with no followers she was able to control her HDD form and pull off what she did a few tropes down.]]
* WalkingSpoiler: Almost everything about her is this, from her [[TheOlderImmortal being one of the oldest goddesses of the Ultradimension]] to her [[SuperpoweredEvilSide HDD form]] being a tryant who was responsible for [[UsefulNotes/TheGreatVideoGameCrashOf1983 The Great Crash]] that lasted for years until Lowee came along.
* WideEyesAndShrunkenIrises: [[spoiler:Her goddess persona often makes deranged expressions like this.]]
* WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: [[spoiler: She becomes a murderous tyrant if she obtains a CPU Memory. This is the exact reason why her people rebelled against her.]]
* WorldsStrongestWoman: [[spoiler:Rei is the strongest individual in the Neptunia series, bar none. A Goddesses' power is derived from their followers; the more followers they have, the more power they have. No followers gives the Goddess a power of absolutely zero. Ultradimension Rei managed to put up an impressive showing with no followers at all, while the only Goddess who has a similar amount of experience, Blanc, was reduced to a powerless little girl with no followers. And then Hyperdimesion Rei ''did'' gain followers....oh boy.]]

!! Akudaijin / Mister Badd
-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/KiyoyukiYanada (Japanese), Creator/KeithSilverstein (English)
[[quoteright:129:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/70a40b60eef1060563cc6b436f1e970e_5456.png]]

* AintTooProudToBeg: [[spoiler: After being beaten, Plutia and Blanc (in their HDD forms) torture a confession out of him to be televised. After Blanc mentions that she's done, Plutia informs everyone that she's going to keep toying with him however she wants. This prompts a BigNo and him begging for anyone to come save him from her.]]
* TheAtoner: [[spoiler:Genuinely comes to regret what he did to the failed [=CPU=] children-turned-monsters and goes out his way to care for them like they were really his children, even to the point he starts researching a way to turn them back and eventually abandons the Seven Sages for their sake]].
* BatmanGambit: [[spoiler:He reveals to the Goddesses that the monsters he uses to fight them (and calls his daughters) are actually children who failed to become [=CPUs=]. It's heavily hinted he FORCEFULLY did this to them, and when he reveals this to them, he fully expects they'd be unwilling to harm the children and would have to leave, thus sparing his life.]]
* CompositeCharacter: Has a similar role in this game to Ganache and Yvoire from the first game, he even spends some time as nothing but a silhouette while working with the Seven Sages.
* DubNameChange: From Akudaijin to Mr. Badd.
* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: 'Mr. Badd' is an alias.
* EvilGenius: Considering he had a NearVillainVictory moment and the only thing he didn't count on [[spoiler: was a fourth CPU present at that time, the Seven Sages could have won as early as ''chapter 3''.]]
* EvilOldFolks: Well, he's more of middle-aged man, but he counts anyways.
%%* {{Gonk}}: Yep.
* [[IJustWantToHaveFriends I Just Want To Have A Family]]: [[spoiler:His wife died when he was a young man, and he eventually began to see failed [=CPUs=] as his children, to the point he started researching a way to reverse their transformation]].
* GratuitousJapanese: During one scene.
-->'''Mr. Badd:''' Kanpai.
* MiniMecha: As he's just an ordinary human, he uses one to fight the [=CPUs=]. It looks rather like a combination of [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog Dr. Eggman]] and some carnival ride.
* NearVillainVictory: [[spoiler: Thanks to his scheming, Lowee fell when Plutia, Noire and Neptune defeated Blanc on live TV; this defeat stripped Blanc of all her goddess's powers and reverted her to a powerless girl due to the loss of faith from the civilians, thus ridding Lowee of its CPU. He also subsequently imprisoned her along with the other 3 [=CPUs=], leaving their countries vulnerable and defenseless against the Seven Sages. Unfortunately, not knowing Vert existed was the only flaw in his plan. Without her, he would've won.]]
* NobodyTouchesTheHair: Due to him suffering from some hair loss, he doesn't like people messing with his hair. Of the tortures Blanc and Plutia put him through the only one he mentions beyond being kicked in the spleen is that they're plucking his hairs out one by one and begs them to stop.
* NonStandardCharacterDesign: He's a fairly realistic middle-aged man in a cast of mostly cute anime girls that had kept human males before him in silhouettes.
* ObviouslyEvil: In the localization, Akudaijin is named "Mister Badd". Yes. You read right. Of course, in Japanese "Akudaijin" is also not exactly ''subtle''.[[note]]His name is written in katakana (アクダイジーン ''Akudaijīn''), so the intended meaning is ambiguous. The most likely option is "悪/Aku" (evil) + "大臣/daijin" (minister) = "Evil minister". "Dai" and "jin" can also be "great/big" and "person", respectively (大人). "悪大人/Akudaijin/Great evil person".[[/note]]
* PapaWolf / PetTheDog: [[spoiler:Despite being a member of the organization that is turning children into monsters, he ''does'' seem to care for his daughters, enjoying spending time with them and gets furious when anyone insults or lays a hand on them. He was even researching a way to turn them back to human form.]]
* ProtectedByAChild: [[spoiler:Those weird monsters that are often around him? They're failed [=CPUs=]]].
* ScaryShinyGlasses: Played straight in his official art. You can't even see his eyes.
** TheGlassesComeOff: Whenever you fight against him.
* SharpDressedMan: You have to admit, that suit looks awesome on him.
* TreacherousAdvisor: [[spoiler: For Blanc]]
* TheOneGuy: The first non-silhouetted human male character in the entire franchise.
* TrueBeautyIsOnTheInside: Played with. Mr. Badd sees as beautiful what is generally considered ugly by society. However, he just has a…different aesthetic sense.
* XanatosSpeedChess: Egg the goddesses on into fighting each other, then televise the battle. [[spoiler: If Blanc wins, that's two nations fallen. If Blanc loses, the others are likely to be exhausted and capturable taking out all three nations. Noire herself points out a third result, and pushes for it herself, that being showing Iris Heart to the world would potentially take out Planeptune. [[XanatosGambit Any way it could've conceivably unfolded, he wins.]]]] When that all falls apart on him, and they try to pull the same tactic on him, he quickly tries to prevent further losses by [[spoiler: [[BatmanGambit banking on the fact that the others wouldn't throw away Blanc]] just to publicly ruin him. Even when that backfires by them reempowering Blanc and restoring her goddess abilities with ThePowerOfFriendship (literally) he reveals that he had diverted some of Lowee's budget into building a mech to fight them.]]
%%* VileVillainSaccharineShow: Goddamn you, Mr. Badd...[[spoiler:or not.]]

!!5pb.

-->'''Voiced by:''' nao (Japanese), Creator/JulieAnnTaylor (English)

* ExoticEyeDesigns: Most of the time her eyes are normal but they take on wavelengths anytime she becomes surprised.
* [[FoolishSiblingResponsibleSibling Foolish Cousin, Responsible Cousin]]: The responsible one to MAGES. foolish. While she genuinely loves her cousin, the Mad Magician's tendencies towards the dramatic do leave her exasperated at times.
* MusicalAssassin: A rock star that fights with a guitar and music to destroy her enemies.
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: An event told by MAGES. [[NoodleIncident states that 5pb. used to play her guitar with her teeth.]] Another one has her shy personality taken out with a discussion with Ultradimension Vert. Neptune was shocked as a result of her change.
* ShrinkingViolet: While incredibly confident while singing or on the radio, at any other time she becomes incredibly timid and shy.
* TransformingMecha: Apparently owns one whose base form ''is her concert stage''. MAGES. built it to only activate if she plays the F chord sixteen times in one second.

!!Cave

--> '''Voiced by:''' Mayuko Takahashi (Japanese), Creator/LaurenLanda (English)

* BoobsOfSteel: One of the physically strongest Makers, and also one of the most stacked.
* BulletHell: A lot of her specials involve inflicting this trope on her opponent.
* CleavageWindow: Her outfit is basically a sexualized magical-girl/nurse/maid outfit and she's an adult. Do the math.
* CloakAndDagger: Mentions to Ultradimension Vert this is essentially what the Leanbox SMD is to Hyperdimension Vert...[[RagTagBunchOfMisfits although she notes that there are only four of them...and two don't even own Leanbox consoles...]] She admits they need to do some work on it.
* FriendToAllChildren: She mentions in an event she was happily walking around with Rom and Ram while trying to find out where the Makers had gone and eating ice cream with them. Both sisters noticed she had a surprisingly large smile on her face as she ate with them.
* HeroesPreferSwords: Her alternate weapon.
* TheRedMage / LightningBruiser: Both her Strength and Intelligence are very close to one another, and her defenses are decent. Her specials can do some major damage as well.
* ShearMenace: Her preferred weapon, though in battle it's basically just an oddly-shaped sword.

!!Bamo

A seemingly minor enemy encountered in ''[=Re;Birth3=]'''s exclusive prologue dungeon by Neptune. She shows up in the True ending EndgamePlus plot with social games by terrorizing the Ultradimension with Pay to win games that mind controls the citizens.

* BribingYourWayToVictory: Uses this as a method to control the citizens of the Ultradimension.
* EarlyBirdCameo: Appears as a harmless minor enemy in the prologue.
* EnemySummoner: Summons monsters to attack the [=CPUs=].
* WakeUpCallBoss: You are going to face them as Iris Heart and Yellow Heart ALONE--providing that DLC characters are not in your party. There is no warning that the battle will initiate, as checking on Ultradimension Planeptune will automatically encounter them.

!!Regu

One of ''[=Re;Birth3=]'''s exclusive bosses. Along with Bamo, who the two terrorizes the Ultradimension with social games in the True ending EndgamePlus plot.

* WakeUpCallBoss: Same with Bamo's entry--provided that Iris Heart isn't partnered with Yellow Heart, or you have DLC characters in your party.


[[/folder]]

* KansaiRegionalAccent: His Japanese voice.

* TheDarkChick: The spokesman of the Seven Sages.
* ElegantGothicLolita

* MultiMeleeMaster[=/=]MultiRangedMaster: Thanks to the new gameplay mechanic "[[EquippableAlly Final CPU Form]]", Neptune gets to use a {{BFS}}, a [[BladeOnAStick spear]], an axe, a [[MixAndMatchWeapon gunblade]], an ''[[RefugeInAudacity airplane]]'', and a PowerFist.

* BladeOnAStick: One of her weapons -- both in civilian and HDD form -- is a spear [[note]] Green Heart used to use a [[ThisIsADrill drill]] in the [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptunia first]] [[VideoGame/HyperdimensionNeptuniaMk2 two]] games. [[/note]].

* [[HasTwoMommies Has Three Mommies and a Daddy]]: [[spoiler:Plutia and Neptune consider her their "daughter", along with Compa and IF. After getting over being BrainwashedAndCrazy she goes back to living with them, but still also considers Rei and Anonydeath her mother and father.]]

* HasTwoMommies: Plutia and Neptune [[InvokedTrope consider her their "daughter", along with Compa and Peashy]]. Of the three, IF is the only one to not [[DefiedTrope deny it]], likely out of fear of angering Plutia. Compa simply shoots the concept down while Peashy considers [[spoiler: Rei and Anonydeath to be her parents, even after getting over her brainwashing.]]
** Should be noted that IF has a WellDoneSonGuy attitude towards Neptune, likely because she views her as a mother figure, and in general has a much better relationship with Nep than she does with Plutia.

* HasTwoMommies: Plutia and Neptune consider her their "daughter", along with IF and Peashy.

* ContraltoOfDanger: Her voice drops down considerably as Purple Heart.

* ContraltoOfDanger: Her voices takes on a slightly stronger tone while transformed.

* ContraltoOfDanger: Her voice in HDD very noticeably drops a few octaves. More noticable in [[Creator/ErinFitzgerald the English dub]].

* ContraltoOfDanger: As Iris Heart, her voice becomes deep to make her sound menacing and seductive.

* AnythingThatMoves: Iris Heart will use anyone as her "plaything", considering that her first victim on-screen was ''Warechu/Pirachu''. The sole exception is Vert who apparently isn't her type.

* WhipSword: One of Iris Heart's weapons.

* NotGoodWithPeople: While incredibly confident while singing or on the radio, at any other time she becomes incredibly timid and shy.

* EyeBeam

* CatGirl

* IdiotHair
* LittleMissSnarker

* MyNameIsNotDurwood: Keeps telling Neptune to stop calling her Puchiko to no avail.
* SailorFuku

* TokenMiniMoe

* ScarfOfAsskicking

* ChristmasCake: Called this by Pirachu. Somehow, this convinces her that she perhaps belongs to the Seven Sages.

** [[spoiler: Peashy finds out that reminding her in any way of [[ChristmasCake her age]] proves to be one while the HDD personality is in control. Part of her tirade at the [=CPU=]s becomes about how she's never dated a man, will never marry, and has never had a child, after Peashy continues to call her Mommy.]]

* ChristmasCake: Approaching her 30s, and claims to be too old to marry. [[spoiler: Or more specifically for Ultradimension Rei ''was'' approaching her 30s, and is now simply stuck looking that way despite being several thousand years old.]]

* DisproportionateRetribution: Her [[SarcasmMode totally legitimate]] reasoning to kill Yellow Heart is that the latter [[GagBoobs has a bigger rack than her]]. [[ACupAngst Blanc]] also follows suit, albeit for a different reason.

* GagBoobs: Her I-Cup breast size is enough to give ''Vert'' the ACupAngst!
-->'''Noire''': [[MaleGaze Stop being shocked by her unrealistically sized tits!]]

* GagBoobs: Neptune specifically asked for a ninjer-like girl with massive jugs. She got what she asked for.

%%* BareYourMidriff: Her Ultradimension self wears one.

-->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/YuuKobayashi (Japanese), Creator/JulieAnnTaylor (English Game), Creator/MorganGarrett (English Anime)

** Her normal attitude in regards to this matter is likely because she's perfectly aware of [[SheIsAllGrownUp how she looks while in HDD.]]

* FanservicePack: Her Purple Heart form has [[BuxomIsBetter grown in the right places]] over the TimeSkip between ''mk2'' and ''Victory''.

%%* MegaTwintails: As Black Sister.

A seemingly minor enemy encountered [[spoiler: in ''[=Re;Birth3=]'''s exclusive prologue dungeon]] by Neptune. [[spoiler: He or she(?) shows up in the True ending EndgamePlus plot with social games by terrorizing the Ultradimension with Pay to win games that mind controls the citizens.]]

One of ''[=Re;Birth3=]'''s exclusive bosses[[spoiler: along with Bamo, who the two terrorizes the Ultradimension with social games in the True ending EndgamePlus plot. ]]

* MultiMeleeMaster[=/=]MultiRangedMaster: Thanks to the new gameplay mechanic "[[EquippableAlly Final CPU Form]]", Neptune gets to use a {{BFS}}, a [[BladeOnAStick spear]], an [[AnAxeToGrind axe]], a [[MixAndMatchWeapon gunblade]], an ''[[RefugeInAudacity airplane]]'', and a PowerFist.

** AnAxeToGrind: The hammer turns into an axe when she becomes White Heart.

** AnAxeToGrind: Her staffs become small axes in HDD.

%%** AnAxeToGrind: Her staffs become small axes in HDD.

* {{Gainaxing}}: Naturally. Her default combat stance doesn't help.

* DarkSkinnedBlonde

* UnEntendre: Iris Heart assumes Nepgear's references to hardware and software are sexual in nature.

* SparedByTheAdaptation:[[spoiler:She is the first Arfoire to make it through a game alive, and with a relatively happy ending to boot.]]

* TookALevelInJerkass: Compared to her lazy but well-meaning depiction in the earlier games, Neptune in this game is a lot more lazy and selfish, being rather uncaring to Nepgear (even before they went to the Ultradimension) and openly rude to Noire, leading in the former [[WhatTheHellHero calling her out on her callous behavior towards her]].

* WhatTheHellHero: Nepgear calls Neptune "stupid big-sister-who-abandoned-me-in-a-different-dimension". That's a pretty apt description.

* EveryoneHasStandards: As much as she and Blanc butt heads, even she was appalled when Plutia admitted that the (initially) befriended Blanc [[JerkWithAHeartOfJerk just to make her cry more later]].

* CuteAndPsycho: Plutia has been shown to be just as scary as Iris Heart, which is more or less [[ComedicSociopathy played as a joke]]. One of her EXE Drives, named “stress relief”, has her gleefully beating up her dolls when attacking her enemies. [[spoiler: And when she found out that her children have been kidnapped by Arfoire, she starts giggling and speaking in a creepy tone, disturbing the other goddesses in their HDD forms.]]

%%* {{Expy}}: Take Compa's [[TheDitz ditziness]], exaggerate it and you have Plutia.

* JerkassBall: Plutia has her moments of acting very {{spoiled|Brat}} -- when things don’t go her way, she’ll ''threaten'' to use her SuperpoweredEvilSide against her allies to get what she wants.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Cruel and dominating as she is, Iris Heart does seem to have a soft spot for people who learned from their mistakes, which is shown in the True Ending and is [[AdaptationalHeroism further emphasized]] in the [[Anime/HyperdimensionNeptuniaTheAnimation anime]]. This isn’t always the case though...

* SuppressedRage: Plutia admits to bottling up her frustrations, given that [[YouWouldntLikeMeWhenImAngry said frustrations is what usually triggers her transformation]], especially since it comes from her [[MamaBear protecting IF and Compa]], which is enough to make even [[HairTriggerTemper Blanc]] worry. This can be perfectly demonstrated in the scene where she talks to Compa on how she keeps her cool, she responds by pulling out her doll, punching it, throwing it to the ground and then ''stepping'' on it.

* CuteButCacophonic: Borders on NoIndoorVoice, especially [[Creator/AoiYuuki in Japanese]].

* DumbMuscle: To the extent that she's only smart enough to read and write only simple words. [[spoiler:To be fair, her mental development essentially stopped when she was a child.]]
* EvilCounterpart: She is a CPU...She just happens to be backed by the Seven Sages.

* GrewASpine: [[spoiler:By the end of the game, she's learned to channel her HDD persona to actually make the Sages listen to her.]]

* {{Hypocrite}}: [[spoiler:HDD Rei is constanlty ranting about how bad [=CPUs=] are (even their {{Stripperific}} outfits annoy her) while refusing to acknowledge her own tyrannical behavior.]]

* HeroicComedicSociopath: Most of the comedy Iris Heart gets is by indiscriminately frightening and torturing enemies and allies alike and [[CrossesTheLineTwice going overboard]] with said punishments. Plutia is no better, as while she still retains her caring aspects, it doesn't stop her from having a macabre sense of humor.

* JekyllAndHyde: A downplayed variant, as she retains her memories in HDD; As Plutia, she is mild-mannered, approachable, and fun-loving with an occasional sadistic side. As Iris Heart, she's a loud and sadistic VillainProtagonist who loves intimidating and tormenting others.

* SuperpoweredEvilSide: Goes from being a sleepy, airheaded and innocent-looking girl into a sadistic, fear-mongering {{Dominatrix}} who mercilessly torments both friend and foe alike.

--> '''Neptune''': "By any chance, were you running ever since yesterday? If so, then that's amazing! Wow, you have an awesome [[LampshadeHanging sense of no direction]]!"

* AintTooProudToBeg: [[spoiler: After being beaten Plutia and Blanc torture a confession out of him to be televised. After Blanc mentions that she's done, Plutia informs everyone that she's going to keep toying with him however she wants. This prompts a BigNo and him begging for anyone to come save him from her.]]

* NearVillainVictory: [[spoiler: Thanks to his scheming, Lowee fell when Iris, Black and Purple Hearts defeated Blanc / White Heart on live TV; this defeat stripped Blanc of all her goddess's powers and reverted her to a powerless girl due to the loss of faith from the civilians, thus ridding Lowee of its CPU. He also subsequently imprisoned her along with the other 3 [=CPUs=], leaving their countries vulnerable and defenseless against the Seven Sages; unfortunately, not knowing Vert existed was the only flaw in his plan. Without her, he would've won.]]
