! The Runaways

* WhatYouAreInTheDark: When he sees his buddies carrying an unconscious Karolina to an upstairs bedroom at a WildTeenParty, Chase is visibly conflicted, but goes after them. When he sees what they're planning to do, he immediately launches himself at them and spends several episodes hiding what he'd done from the rest of the Runaways.

* OfficialCouple: With Nico and Livvie in Season 1 and Season 2 respectively. Neither couple ends up [[DidNotGettheGirl well]], however.

* AdaptationalSexuality: Downplayed, as she goes from merely AmbiguouslyBi to explicitly bi. However, as of Issue 12 of [[ComicBook/RainbowRowellsRunaways the revived comic]], it's no longer ambiguous.

* EyeScream: [[spoiler:When Nico is taken over by the Staff of One, the areas around her eyes appear like dark purple craters in a way that's disturbingly similar to [[Characters/MCUDarkDimension Kaecilius and the Zealots]].]]

* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: This Alex seems more vulnerable and open with his friends than his comic book counterpart. Notably, in the comics Alex was actively against hanging out with the others prior to them learning about their parents, while here, he's very desperate to bond with them. His prior friendship with [[CanonForeigner Amy]] likely played a role.

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Hers is dyed purple. She briefly changes it to green while going incongnito in "Hostile", but is back to purple by the end of the episode.

* TwoferTokenMinority: Threefer, actually: Nico is a bisexual Japanese-American woman.

* NotSoDifferent: Alex has made covert dealings without the team's knowledge for what he believes to be in their best interest, like his own parents. During her WhatTheHellHero to Alex for making a deal with AWOL, Livvie says the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

* NotSoDifferent: Nico tends to be domineering and harsh to her teammates, just like her mother. [[spoiler:Molly accuses Nico of being just like her mother after she proclaims that only the people close to her matter to her. Nico doesn't deny it.]]

* AdaptationalSuperpowerChange: To avoid UnfortunateImplications regarding self-harm, the way Nico's powers work have been altered. When casting a spell, the staff instead spring-loads a small needle attachment to prick the skin for a drop of blood[[note]]justified via ClarksThirdLaw, as the Staff of One is actually a piece of technology that is using the blood to analyse the user's DNA so as to avoid being used by anyone besides Tina or Nico[[/note]], rather than needing her to self-harm.

* CompositeCharacter: This version of Topher seems to combine him with ComicBook/VictorMancha. His role as a street smart older kid who joins the team, [[spoiler:turns on them, and is accidentally killed]] comes from the former. His Latino heritage is taken from the latter.
