Blanc's A Cup Angst was a part of her character since the beginning, and her Hair Trigger Temper has remained consistent in later entries, though both traits have been toned down as of Game Maker


** Blanc still had her [[SirSwearsAlot foul mouth]], but she was also a PerpetualFrowner with a HairTriggerTemper, instead of just having ACupAngst , but otherwise being friendly and sociable. She also had to be tricked into joining the party, with Histoire's advice on how to do so mentioning that she's similar to Arfoire.

Additionally while she still had her ACupAngst it wasn't as prominent as later games made it out to be, only being mentioned twice throughout the whole story.

Fixing a sinkhole


** Neptune was more serious, calm, and responsible, instead of being a [[TheDitz ditzy]] BrilliantButLazy GenkiGirl AttentionWhore.
** Noire was less of a [[TheWorkaholic workaholic]] {{Tsundere}}, and more open about being a CosplayOtakuGirl. Her arc also culminates in her wanting to retire from her post as a CPU due to her self-percieved weakness and failure, when later games would portray being a borderline [[TheDeterminator Determinator]] who takes great pride in her status as a CPU as one of her defining characteristics.

** Vert was also more serious, calm, and responsible, instead of being a [[TheTease teasing]] LoveFreak. Her CovertPervert side was relegated to one or two side events, rather than her being an open LovableSexManiac MemeticMolester who wouldn't think twice about [[HarmfulToMinors showing porn to prepubescents or having them dress up in revealing clothing for her ogling pleasure]]. And while her being a GamerChick was part of her character, her learning ''not'' to prioritize her gaming over her goddess duties was a major part of her CharacterDevelopment arc. Later games would portray her as a borderline {{NEET}} and play it for laughs.

Continuing from my earlier edit because I missed a few. Plus a few spelling and grammar fixes.


** Vert's idea of happiness? [[spoiler:Having siblings, as she is the only Hyperdimension [=CPU=] who doesn't have siblings since Microsoft has never made a handheld console to complement the Xbox family and compete with the Vita and 3DS. Additionally, her dream siblings are actually younger versions of herself, to the point where they're also named Vert. [[HiddenDepths This shows that she also wants the experience of being a younger sibling]] and helps to explain her fixation on Nepgear, who takes traits associated with both younger and older siblings as the situations with Neptune demand, since she usually takes the older sister role among the [=CPUs=]. It's also worth noting that her two hypothetical sisters look an awful lot like younger, blonde versions of Noire and Blanc, at least in terms of clothing]].

* AloofBigSister: In ''Victory'', 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]].

* {{Malaproper}}: 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.

* {{Tsundere}}: Type A. She cares a lot about her fellow [=CPUs=], but she can't be upfront with it, especially toward Neptune. Because of this, Neptune has taken to calling her Ultradimension counterpart "Lonely Heart" whenever she falls into her Tsun personality.

* KindheartedCatLover: In ''VII'', she befriends a cat early on in her Hyperdimension G Arc that helps her out several times, such as tricking soldiers looking for her away by making them think it was the source of the noise they heard. K-Sha names it "Blanc", to both Noire and Uni's worry.

* AngerBornOfWorry: In ''VII'''s Hyperdimension G Arc, she gets separated from Ram and Rom after the CosmicRetcon, and joins a hunter guild that they're also part of in the hope that she'll run into them. When she finds them just in time to save them from a monster they couldn't handle, she chews them out for putting themselves in such danger in the first place.

* 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...]]
* RedIsViolent: One of the most noticeable design differences with her Super and Hyperdimension counterparts is that she has red in her robes and her HDD form has red highlights. This also highlights her aggressive attitude.
