* SkirtOverSlacks: While at Isuten Junior High, she wore blue jeans under her uniform during the winter session and [[ModestyShorts gym shorts]]--not of the bloomers variety, obviously--during the spring, summer, and fall sessions. In the very first episode of ''World Tour'', following her encounter with a rude tomboy, she encounters a tomboy who's somewhat nicer and went to Isuten Junior High in the past. She relates her own junior high days to her with these words:
-->'''Shugo''': Most of you girls didn't wear gym shorts under your uniforms in junior high. Me, I always wore some form of pants under that uniform of mine, most often gym shorts, which weren't visible unless the winds came up or some voyeur decided to fool around with me. In winter, I always wore blue jeans under my uniform [[AintNoRule because of a clause in the school's dress code that allows it]], but also because I wanted to keep my legs warm during the colder months. Nowadays, I wear a hybrid uniform. Look at me from the waist up, and you'd think I was a girl. Look at me from the waist down, and you'd think I was a boy.

* TechnicallyLivingZombie: She's zombified when she and her friends visit Shugo, who faked her death by running a story in the newspaper that she had a fatal heart attack and slipping into a local funeral home to climb into a burial coffin to seal the illusion.

-> ''"The Bilingual Rebel against Mansonia, I am Cure Hendrix!"''
* AllBikersAreHellsAngels: In episodes 24 and 25; subverted as the Hell's Angels portrayed in those episodes are much nicer than their real-life counterparts.
* {{Bifauxnen}}
* BigNo: [[spoiler:As she watches Mitsuuru gets knifed to death by a thug.]]
* BondOneLiner: She gets one whenever she dispatches an Akumana or other enemy. e.g.: "Something he ate disagreed with him."
* CharacterFocus: She's the author's personal favorite and gets a whole boatload of plotlines related to her, on par with Sakura. She's also the one who features more heavily in crossover/spinoff works.
* ClingyJealousGirl: To Mitsuuru, which is why Kaori tries her hardest to make sure she and Mitsuuru stay JustFriends in order to avoid her wrath--because if Shugo caught them in love she'd kill Kaori.
* ClusterFBomb: She gives all the other Fan Cures a run for their money in the swearing department.
* CrossCastRole: She gets this all the time, most notably as Kyon from ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya''
* [[spoiler:DisneyDeath]]
* DressHitsFloor: Done with her Isuten Junior High uniform in episode 41; of course, the camera is allowed to pan vertically upwards immediately afterwards, since she was wearing blue jeans underneath like she always does during the winter months.
* {{Expy}}: Her Cure costume should remind you of [[Anime/FreshPrettyCure Eas]]. Also, a few characters comment she looks like she could be Creator/EmmaWatson's long-lost twin sister, which becomes an ActorAllusion in the English dub of one of the movies. Starting with the final scene in episode 52, she cut her hair just so she could continue to look like her. While this isn't brought up at first, in the first episode of ''World Tour'' Akane comments on it, asking if she "cut [her] hair just so [she] could look like Emma Watson", and the official response from Shugo is that she "wanted to crank [her] boyishness UpToEleven."
* FaceHeelRevolvingDoor: Sometimes, she just doesn't know who to shoot. In episode 31, she pulls a gun on Sakura for no reason at all. Then, in episode 41, she shoots at Mitsuuru when he tries to pass himself off as a MagicalGirl, leading him to yell, "[[WhatTheHellHero Hey, Einstein, I'm on your side!]]" Episode 45 features her at her most [[strike:evil]] recklessly homicidal when chasing Kuroimetaru. And that's not even going into all those times she shot at her own allies in episodes 49 and 50, some of which led to VideoGame/StarFox64 homages.
* FirstKiss: With Mitsuuru, during a flashback.
* GoodScarsEvilScars: Her X-shaped scar on her arm.
* GoodSmokingEvilSmoking: She finds an abandoned cigarette in episode 45, taking a whiff and blowing it in Kuroimetaru's face, saying, "[[PreMortemOneLiner Enjoy your secondhand smoke,]] [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch bitch]]!" Then she coughs before saying, "I knew I shouldn't have done that. I hope I don't get addicted." Guess what? She's remained smoke-free ever since.
* GratuitousSpanish: Sometimes it's clean, sometimes it's vulgar. It's easy to tell: the author censors translations of the vulgar Spanish in the glossary.
* TheGunslinger: After episode 13.
* HellBentForLeather: Her school uniform includes a black leather jacket; also, her performance uniform makes her resemble one of Music/TheRamones if he wore a Japanese Academy hat.
* ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: Played straight most of the time, as any opponent that fires at her, she kills first shot; mercilessly inverted in episode 51, as [[spoiler:she gets shot in the lung ''after missing her opponent each time'']].
%%* IncurableCoughOfDeath: In episode 51, complete with blood coming out of her mouth.
%%* TheLancer
* MasculineGirlFeminineBoy: The Masculine Girl to Mitsuuru's Feminine Boy.
* {{Meganekko}}: She becomes a rare {{Bifauxnen}} example starting in episode 37 as part of the episode's subplot
* NonUniformUniform: WordOfGod says Shugo's Isuten High uniform in ''World Tour'' is officially a hybrid between the uniforms of different sexes, with the [[SailorFuku sailor top]] of the girls' uniform and the black pants of the boys' uniform. The leather jacket worn by both sexes is also present. As she herself describes her uniform: "Look at me from the waist up, and you'd think I was a girl. Look at me from the waist down, and you'd think I was a boy." Here's one tomboy's reaction in the first episode of the season:
-->'''Tomboy''': What are you, a hermaphrodite, wearing a hybrid uniform like that with androgynous features? Or are you receiving special treatment from the school?\\
''[Shugo grabs the tomboy by her sailor collar]''\\
'''Shugo''': I'll be traveling the world with my band starting next week, I'll have you know!\\
'''Tomboy''': What's that got to do with anything?\\
'''Shugo''': It means I don't have to put up with such crap as you just now threw at me for very long, that's what!\\
'''Sakura''': Leave her alone, Shugo. She's just screwing around with you.\\
''[Shugo lets go of the tomboy]''\\
'''Shugo''': Well, violence would not be very good publicity for a first-year, so I'll let you off this time with a warning.
* OperaGloves: A rare [[RealWomenNeverWearDresses non-dress-wearing]] example in Cure form
* PietaPlagiarism: With [[spoiler:Mitsuuru]] in the season 2 finale
* PrecisionFStrike: She says the F word in episodes 23 and 51; the latter one will be the ONLY F word in the series to be uncensored--and that's to maximize the impact.
* RealWomenNeverWearDresses: Except during classes
* SheCleansUpNicely: Done with a tuxedo during the [[DancesAndBalls royal ball episode]]
* SkirtOverSlacks: While at Isuten Junior High, she wore blue jeans under her uniform during the winter session and [[ModestyShorts gym shorts]]--not of the bloomers variety, obviously--during the spring, summer, and fall sessions. In the very first episode of ''World Tour'', following her encounter with a rude tomboy, she encounters a tomboy who's somewhat nicer and went to Isuten Junior High in the past. She relates her own junior high days to her with these words:

* SuddenlyAlwaysKnewThat: In a later episode, it's revealed that she's a self-taught figure skater, and she does a transgender pairs routine with Mitsuuru
* TechnicallyLivingZombie: Sakura infects her during the zombie scare at the funeral home. She finds herself a slave to the undead zombie created by tainted embalming fluid.
* TightsUnderShorts: Sometimes wears this, particularly in the second season
* TokenEvilTeammate: Although, she's usually more {{antihero}}ic than evil, though she goes psycho when someone presses one of her {{Berserk Button}}s either by accident or by design
* VillainousBreakdown: Of sorts. She's not actually evil, but in episode 8, she's de-zombified just as she's about to infect a mourner at a funeral and suffers one when she realizes that she almost sunk her teeth into human flesh. When she's about to kill the funeral director for being careless, Sakura stops her by saying, "If you kill him, it's like killing Death itself. I'm warning you, you don't--" Shugo, having regained her sanity, cuts her off and says, "I know, I know. [[Film/FinalDestination1 We don't even want to fuck with that MacDaddy.]]"
* VillainProtagonist: She acts like one sometimes in ''World Tour'', to the point where she's the closest thing the season has to an actual villain--never mind that there's the odd monster that forces the Cures back into action.
** Her most serious incident was the "murder sim" she did in closed space; however, the most severe punishment she gets is a WhatTheHellHero speech from Sakura (who along with her friends is actually alive and well.

-> "''That's for my bandmates! And that's for the newbies I befriended! Now stop harassing my friends or I'll keep beating you up! Wait... where are you going! Come back here or I'll call the police!''"
* HairTriggerTemper: The only people he's never flipped out on, as he says in a Ramirez-era episode, are his own bandmates and the Lovely and Wild Angels; otherwise, he'd go postal over the slightest touch, as displayed in episode 26 when, having been exorcised by the Cures, he punches out Ramirez for all the terror she's brought to his band and Sakura's
* ManInAKilt: He wears one on occasion, most notably while the band he inspired promotes ''Venezuelan Democracy'' at Best Buy in episode 46

* [[spoiler:DisneyDeath: At the end of season 2, an IPO stabs him in the heart at the airport as his friends watch. This comes complete with PietaPlagiarism by Shugo all the way out of the airport, then, following a RedHerring of a ReallyDeadMontage, he comes back to life when Shugo kisses him.]]
* FirstKiss: With Shugo, during a flashback* LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya: He played the part in a drama club production; his girlfriend--voiced by Creator/AyaHirano, Haruhi's Japanese voice--played Kyon.

In a season 2 episode, he also gets to perform with the Oriyama Ballet Company for the first time after joining the troupe, dancing the part of Lise in LaFilleMalGardee before thousands, if not millions, of spectators in theatres worldwide, including the Lovely and Wild Angels, who received special tickets to the screening in the city where they're located at the time via email. He does it again during the Christmas episode, in which he reveals that he's going to dance the part of Mascha from ''Theatre/TheNutcracker'' as choreographed by Yuri Grigorovich.

* TightsWithASkirt: A rare male example sometimes.
* WardrobeMalfunction: Not a malfunction so much as an odd attribute, but in a season 2 episode, he comments that before he joined the Oriyama Ballet Company, he attended dance lessons wearing an extremely tight pink leotard that has a special adhesive on the inside that sticks to him for exactly six hours before loosening up and allowing him to remove it. Plus, the entry point is as wide as his neck, so he had to pull wide at the entry point to get in or out. As such, he was stuck wearing the leotard for the remainder of the day whenever he took ballet lessons on that day. Upon joining the company, he switches to a pink strapless leotard that's fastened to him by two thick strands of ribbon at the very top that are tied behind his back.

However, she only officially joined the Oriyama Ballet Company recently, when it was preparing a production of ''Ouran'' with choreography by MikhailBaryshnikov; since then she's proven herself one of the strongest dancers in the troupe, as evidenced when she danced the part of the Nutcracker Prince in another production of ''The Nutcracker'', this time with choreography by the Bolshoi's Yuri Grigorovich.

* DressHitsFloor: Done with her Isuten Junior High uniform in episode 41; of course, the camera is allowed to pan vertically upwards immediately afterwards, since she was wearing blue jeans underneath like she always does during the winter months.
* {{Expy}}: Her Cure costume should remind you of [[Anime/FreshPrettyCure Eas]]. Also, a few characters comment she looks like she could be Creator/EmmaWatson's long-lost twin sister, which becomes an ActorAllusion in the English dub of one of the movies. Starting with the final scene in episode 52, she cut her hair just so she could continue to look like her. While this isn't brought up at first, in the first episode of ''World Tour'' Akane comments on it, asking if she "cut [her] hair just so [she] could look like Emma Watson", and the official response from Shugo is that she "wanted to crank [her] boyishness UpToEleven."
* FaceHeelRevolvingDoor: Sometimes, she just doesn't know who to shoot. In episode 31, she pulls a gun on Sakura for no reason at all. Then, in episode 41, she shoots at Mitsuuru when he tries to pass himself off as a MagicalGirl, leading him to yell, "[[WhatTheHellHero Hey, Einstein, I'm on your side!]]" Episode 45 features her at her most [[strike:evil]] recklessly homicidal when chasing Kuroimetaru.

Then she coughs before saying, "I knew I shouldn't have done that. I hope I don't get addicted." Guess what? She's remained smoke-free ever since.

The leather jacket worn by both sexes is also present. As she herself describes her uniform: "Look at me from the waist up, and you'd think I was a girl. Look at me from the waist down, and you'd think I was a boy." Here's one tomboy's reaction in the first episode of the season:
-->'''Tomboy''': What are you, a hermaphrodite, wearing a hybrid uniform like that with androgynous features? Or are you receiving special treatment from the school?\\
''[Shugo grabs the tomboy by her sailor collar]''\\
'''Shugo''': I'll be traveling the world with my band starting next week, I'll have you know!\\
'''Tomboy''': What's that got to do with anything?\\
'''Shugo''': It means I don't have to put up with such crap as you just now threw at me for very long, that's what!\\
'''Sakura''': Leave her alone, Shugo. She's just screwing around with you.\\
''[Shugo lets go of the tomboy]''\\
'''Shugo''': Well, violence would not be very good publicity for a first-year, so I'll let you off this time with a warning.
* OperaGloves: A rare [[RealWomenNeverWearDresses non-dress-wearing]] example in Cure form
* PietaPlagiarism: With [[spoiler:Mitsuuru]] in the season 2 finale

* RealWomenNeverWearDresses: Except during classes
* SheCleansUpNicely: Done with a tuxedo during the [[DancesAndBalls royal ball episode]]
* SkirtOverSlacks: While at Isuten Junior High, she wore blue jeans under her uniform during the winter session and [[ModestyShorts gym shorts]]--not of the bloomers variety, obviously--during the spring, summer, and fall sessions. In the very first episode of ''World Tour'', following her encounter with a rude tomboy, she encounters a tomboy who's somewhat nicer and went to Isuten Junior High in the past. She relates her own junior high days to her with these words:
-->'''Shugo''': Most of you girls didn't wear gym shorts under your uniforms in junior high. Me, I always wore some form of pants under that uniform of mine, most often gym shorts, which weren't visible unless the winds came up or some voyeur decided to fool around with me. In winter, I always wore blue jeans under my uniform [[AintNoRule because of a clause in the school's dress code that allows it]], but also because I wanted to keep my legs warm during the colder months. Nowadays, I wear a hybrid uniform. Look at me from the waist up, and you'd think I was a girl. Look at me from the waist down, and you'd think I was a boy.
* {{Stripperific}}: Alone among her comrades, she wears hot pants in lieu of a skirt
* SuddenlyAlwaysKnewThat: In a later episode, it's revealed that she's a self-taught figure skater, and she does a transgender pairs routine with Mitsuuru
* TechnicallyLivingZombie: Sakura infects her during the zombie scare at the funeral home. She finds herself a slave to the undead zombie created by tainted embalming fluid.
* TightsUnderShorts: Sometimes wears this, particularly in the second season
* TokenEvilTeammate: Although, she's usually more {{antihero}}ic than evil, though she goes psycho when someone presses one of her {{Berserk Button}}s either by accident or by design
* VillainousBreakdown: Of sorts. She's not actually evil, but in episode 8, she's de-zombified just as she's about to infect a mourner at a funeral and suffers one when she realizes that she almost sunk her teeth into human flesh. When she's about to kill the funeral director for being careless, Sakura stops her by saying, "If you kill him, it's like killing Death itself. I'm warning you, you don't--" Shugo, having regained her sanity, cuts her off and says, "I know, I know. [[Film/FinalDestination1 We don't even want to fuck with that MacDaddy.]]"
* VillainProtagonist: She acts like one sometimes in ''World Tour'', to the point where she's the closest thing the season has to an actual villain--never mind that there's the odd monster that forces the Cures back into action.
** Her most serious incident was the "murder sim" she did in closed space; however, the most severe punishment she gets is a WhatTheHellHero speech from Sakura (who along with her friends is actually alive and well.

Plus, the entry point is as wide as his neck, so he had to pull wide at the entry point to get in or out. As such, he was stuck wearing the leotard for the remainder of the day whenever he took ballet lessons on that day.
