* ImprobableWeaponUser: her camera

* NerdGlasses

* [=~Hey, It's That Voice!~=]: Raizo's seiyuu, Tomomichi Nishimura, was once Capcom's go-to guy for villain voices - prior to voicing Raizo, he also did the voice for ''StreetFighter Alpha'' M. Bison and was the long-time voice of Akuma prior to ''SFIV''. You can damn near hear Akuma whenever Raizo calls out his attacks.

* EvenTheGirlsWantHer: She's highly idolized by the junior high volleyball players she tutors, and in the character creation modes, gets love letters from some female admirers. Shoma even teases her about it in her Japanese''United By Fate'' ending:

* TheStoic: It's pretty rare for him to even speak, to the point the voice over in his ''Project Justice'' introduction pose is not him, but rather a female voice introducing him as if he were competing in a swim meet.

* FanBoy: She LOVES [[MegaMan Megaman]].

* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Onigiri (rice balls). Eats them in his taunt and in one of his winning poses.

* TheStoic

* TheStoic: It's pretty rare for him to even speak, to the point the voice over in his ''Project Justice'' is not him, but rather a female voice introducing him as if he were competing in a swim meet.

* TheStoic: It's pretty rare for him to even speak.

* AwesomeAnachronisticApparel: In a series set in modern day Japan, she seems to have stepped right out of 18th century Europe.

* ClassRepresentative
* EveryGirlIsCuterWithHairDecs: Wears a hairband.
* IdiotHair
* JokeCharacter: Except for her assist, which then makes her a...
** LethalJokeCharacter: Seriously. She's the ONLY one able to fill up both gauges when assisting

* HotScoop
* ImprobableWeaponUser: her camera
* SchoolNewspaperNewsHound
* SkirtOverSlacks

** However the interest in period-style European clothing is actually a fairly modern fashion trend in Japan, so her look is not completely incongruous.

* ShoutOut: Her assist (if you play her as her non-helmeted form) looks very similar to the "Synchronized Attack" done by Eva Units 1 and 2 in NeonGenesisEvangelion.

* GratuitousEnglish: WANDAFUL! BEAUTIFAL! EXCITING!

*AlliterativeName
*AnimeHair: the spikes sticking out of his baseball cap
*BatterUp: His bat's bigger than he is, to boot.
*BrainwashedAndCrazy: Optional in the Gorin storyline but not so in other school's storylines. He is also the only member of Gorin to suffer this since the other two theoretically can not fall victim to it. However it does use part of Gorin's storyline. Should the player choose Natsu and Roberto as the two main characters there will come a point in the story when Natsu and Shoma get into a rivalry battle. After said battle they apologize to each other but Natsu has injured Shoma quite a bit who stays behind to reccuperate. It is most likely at this point that he is kidnapped by Raizo and consequently {{brainwashed}} as the two appear in other school's storylines together.
*HomeRunHitter
*HotBlooded
*IKnowMaddenKombat
*JerkWithAHeartOfGold
*TheNapoleon: Never, ''ever'' bug him about his height.
*SpellMyNameWithAnS: His name was spelled "Syoma" in the arcade version of ''United By Fate''
*YujiUeda

*EvenTheGirlsWantHer: She's highly idolized by the junior high volleyball players she tutors, and in the character creation modes, gets love letters from some female admirers. Shoma even teases her about it in her ''United By Fate'' ending:

*[[BlindingBangs Blinding Visor]]: His eyes are always hidden behind his visor or some other headgear
*ButNotTooForeign: His profile lists him as a quarter Brazilian
*GameBreaker: In all games. Has ridiculously high damage combos that make him among the best characters in each game, and was one of the few broken characters from ''United By Fate'' that ''didn't'' get significantly {{Nerf}}ed in ''Project Justice''.
*IKnowMaddenKombat
*ImprobableWeaponUser: his soccer ball/football
*ToshiyukiMorikawa

*BaldOfAwesome: If the tight fit of his swimming cap is any indication
*GayMoment: His hilarious, incredibly camp synchronised swimming attack.
*GogglesDoNothing
*IKnowMaddenKombat: with swimming. Seriously - includes dives, back-stroke, splashing etc, all accompanied with water effects....on land.
*MartialArtsDoNotWorkThatWay: He could be this trope's poster-boy....
*TheQuietOne
*ShinichiroMiki
*TheStoic: It's pretty rare for him to even speak.
*WalkingShirtlessScene: In all fights, Nagare is always clad in a speedo, flippers, swim cap and a jacket with no shirt.

*BitchInSheepsClothing
*BlushSticker
*ClingyJealousGirl: to Shoma.

*GenkiGirl

*ImprobableWeaponUser: her racket
*{{Kawaiiko}}: To a rather ridiculous extreme
*KidsAreCruel

*PerkyFemaleMinion: to Kurow until her HeelFaceTurn
*ReiSakuma
*{{Tareme}}
*TokenLoli: Certainly not at loli age, but everything else about her fits the trope
*WoundedGazelleGambit: Pretends to be hurt by [[MasterOfDisguise Vatsu]] to endear herself to Shoma and try get him away from Natsu and Roberto.
*WingdingEyes: Unlike the other characters, her eyes become X's when she's KO'd.
*ZettaiRyouiki: Manages be an S- with the GirlishPigtails

*AnimeHair: The aformentioned tall spikes, which he even uses in a few attacks
*{{Delinquents}}
*EmbarrassingFirstName
*JerkWithAHeartOfGold
*KnifeNut
*TheWhitePrince: He's apparently the son of a very wealthy family, but mentioning them is his BerserkButton. Hence why you should NOT call him by his true name.

*BigEater: Quite literally, too.
*BigGuy

*{{Delinquents}}
*DumbMuscle: Evidenced in his ''United By Fate'' ending
*GentleGiant
*MightyGlacier
*StoutStrength
*TalkingToHimself: TakashiNagasako voices both him and Boman.
*TrademarkFavoriteFood: Onigiri (rice balls). Eats them in his taunt and in one of his winning poses.

*AkioOhtsuka: [[TheOtherDarrin The Other Daigo]] in ''Project Justice''.
*BadassLongcoat
*BrainwashedAndCrazy: Happens to him ''twice''.
*{{Delinquents}}
*GoodScarsEvilScars: Has a scar running straight down his right eye. Daigo himself is on the side of good, but the scar is manipulated by the clearly evil Kurow to brainwash Daigo into one of Kurow's servants.
*JamesBondage: During the first game
*KoichiYamadera
*PunchPunchPunchUhOh: Best summarizes his assist move
*TheStoic

*BikerBabe
*[[BlondeBrunetteRedhead Brunette]]
*ChiharuTezuka
*EnsembleDarkhorse: A surprise hit from ''United By Fate'' and one of the most popular characters in the series. Seijyun High was created specifically to have a story centered around her.
*IdiotHair
*MaskOfPower: Becomes a much stronger and confident character when wearing her brother's motorcycle helmet. In ''Project Justice'', her masked biker-chick form from the first game is available as a secret character called "Powered Akira".
*RomanticTwoGirlFriendship: With Yurika in the Seijyun High ending. And ''how''
*SamusIsAGirl: The big reveal in her ending in ''United By Fate''.
*ShoutOut: Her assist (if you play her as her non-helmeted form) looks very similar to the "Synchronized Attack" done by Eva Units 1 and 2 in NeonGenesisEvangelion.
*SweetPollyOliver: Has to disguise herself as a boy in the original ''Rival Schools'' because her brother's school is all-male. Good thing "Akira" is both a boys and a girls name in Japanese...
*[[TomboyAndGirlyGirl Tomboy]]: To Yurika's girly girl.

*AiOrikasa
*CoolMask: You never, ''ever'' see her without her mask.
*{{Delinquents}}: She's the leader of the Ladies Team
*GrievousHarmWithABody: Zaki's assist ends with her grabbing her partner and using them as a club to beat the opponent with.
*EmbarrassingMiddleName: She [[RealWomenNeverWearDresses hates having "hime" (Japanese for "princess") in her name]], hence why she prefers the other half of her surname
*EveryGirlIsCuterWithHairDecs: Has a ''chain'' in her hair that creates her spiky ponytail.
*FieryRedhead
*JerkWithAHeartOfGold: If she comes to care for you, she'll be your (very stoic and bad-tempered) friend for life.

*[[BlondeBrunetteRedhead Redhead]]
*ShipperOnDeck: Might be one, if her comments on Akira and Yurika say something.
*WhipItGood: It's a chain, but the way she uses it is the same.

*{{Air In A G-String}}
*AnimeHair: With the ridiculously large PrincessCurls and cinnamon bun-esque ringlets on top of her head, she's the queen of this in the series, if not in Capcom games as a whole.
*AwesomeAnachronisticApparel: In a series set in modern day Japan, she seems to have stepped right out of 18th century Europe.

*BecomingTheMask: Like Kyosuke, she was supposed to be TheMole for her brother, but comes to truly care for her teammates.
*BewareTheNiceOnes: Some in-game artwork of her carrying out her brother's evil plans is downright creepy. (especially the image of her in silhouette playing the flute....''[[http://nabbyfan.deviantart.com/art/Project-Justice-Yurika-Redux-92796807 with glowing eyes]]'')
*[[BlondeBrunetteRedhead Blonde]], if you squint just right.
*CombatStilettos: Not exactly obvious [[http://i42.tinypic.com/a0ay6g.jpg at first glance]], but her in-game self clearly shows those clogs of hers has [[http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/rivalschools/moero-22.jpg a heel on them]].
*DullEyesOfUnhappiness: Not surprising, considering the way her brother treats her.
*GiantPoofySleeves
*[[TomboyAndGirlyGirl Girly Girl]]: To Akira's tomboy
*ElegantGothicLolita
*FetishFuelStationAttendant
*ImprobableWeaponUser: her violin
*InstrumentOfMurder: Thought she mainly uses music when fighting, Yurika also has several moves where she uses her violin [[ImplausibleFencingPowers like a fencing foil]]
*{{Keigo}}: One of the conversations in ''Project Justice'''s board game implies that Yurika is a very polite speaker, to the point that even Gedo High's numerous {{delinquents}} start speaking more politely around her.
*KeikoHan
*{{Kuudere}}: [[GushingAboutCharactersYouLike Isn't she]] ''[[GushingAboutCharactersYouLike adorable]]'' WhenSheSmiles? And when she blushes? {{Squee}}!
*LadyOfWar
*[[MadScientistsBeautifulDaughter Mad Assassin's Beautiful Older Sister]]
*{{Mukokuseki}}: What Japanese girl has ash-blonde hair and {{gray eyes}}?
*MusicalAssassin
*{{Ojou}}: A mix of both major types of the character
*OperaGloves: White ones, to be specific.
*PrincessCurls: The poster girl for this style - to the point of [[ExaggeratedTrope exaggeration]].
*SiblingYinYang: Where Yurika is timid, gentle and polite (if occasionally disquieting), her brother Kurow is violent, ruthless and power-mad.
*SpoiledSweet
*SuperSenses: In ''Project Justice'''s character creation [[BoardGames board game]], Yurika reveals to the player character that she can identify people by the sound of their footsteps.
*{{Tsurime}}

*BrainwashedAndCrazy
*GratuitousEnglish: TOUCHDOWN!
*{{Homage}}: to Terry Bogard from the ''Main/FatalFury'' series
*{{Jerkass}}: Roy is very condescending of the Japanese and has a huge superiority complex when it comes to the respective countries. This was toned down a LOT in the western translation which makes it rather odd for gamers who can understand Japanese since only the translation is different. The dialogue is still the same as the original making it somewhat strange to read one thing and listen to something completely different. It should be noted that towards the end of the game Roy has changed his outlook on Japan considerably and seems to view the country with a [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold lot more respect]].
*JerkWithAHeartOfGold: From the sequel onwards.
*PatrioticFervor
*TheRival: To Batsu, but it is more friendly post-''United By Fate''
*RyotaroOkiayu
*TranslationConvention

*AssKicksYou: Has both an ass attack and a "kiss my ass" taunt
*BrainlessBeauty: Oh so ''very'' much.
*BrainwashedAndCrazy
*BuxomIsBetter
*TheCheerleader: A relatively benign version.
*CombatStilettos: On the boots of her ''Project Justice'' outfit. How's that's even acceptable for cheerleading boggles the mind...
*DumbBlonde:

*ForeignFanservice: Have you ''seen'' her costumes?
*GenkiGirl
*GratuitousEnglish: WANDAFUL! BEAUTIFAL! EXCITING!
*JigglePhysics: The only female in the series to have this. Of course, since she has the most visible assets as well, it was inevitable.
*MarshmallowHell: One of her throws has her do this to the (un)lucky opponent
*MsFanservice: No, really, have you ''seen'' [[http://www.fightersgeneration.com/characters4/tiffany-hr.jpg her]] [[http://www.fightersgeneration.com/characters4/tiffany-121.gif costumes]]?
*MurderousThighs: her new super in ''Project Justice'' is a LighterAndSofter version of this.
*RedBoxingGloves
*SheFu: Her acrobatic moveset is explained by her hobby of cheerleading.
*SlipperySwimsuit: In ''Shiritsu Justice Gakuen: Nekketsu Seisyun Nikki 2'''s character creation mode, if you go with Tiffany to the Water Park, she'll ride the giant water slide, and when she reaches the pool at bottom, her bikini top comes off. The end result is that she is shown with her SexyBack to the viewer while she's frantically covering her front.
*SpoiledSweet: Is quite less of a jerk than Roy.
*TranslationConvention
*ValleyGirl: As evidenced by [[http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v146/nabbyfan/tiffany.png this screenshot]].
*WearingAFlagOnYourHead: Or her body, rather, as her cheerleading uniforms all have a very obvious American flag motif to them
*ZettaiRyouiki: Her costume in ''Project Justice'' is a hot pants+boots variation of this

*BrainwashedAndCrazy
*CrowningMomentOfFunny: His ending in ''United By Fate''
*DarkSkinnedBlond
*GentleGiant
*MartialPacifist: A Christian, he prefers to avoid fighting whenever possible. All his moves' names have "God" in them.
*ReligiousBruiser: see Martial Pacifist above
*ScaryBlackMan: Subverted. He looks the part, but is arguably the most peaceful of the Pacific students
*TalkingToHimself: TakashiNagasako voices both him and Gan.
*TokenMinority: He's black
*TranslationConvention

*BadassTeacher
*BrainwashedAndCrazy
*CoolOldGuy
* HeirToTheDojo: Was this before becoming a teacher
*NerdGlasses
*NiceGuy
*{{Shotoclone}}: Blatantly so. In ''{{Tatsunoko vs Capcom}}'', Batsu inadvertently lampshades this in his winquote against [[StreetFighter Ryu]].

*ShouldersOfDoom: His shoulder pads, which represent his accomplishments in his family's martial art style.

*BadassTeacher
*BrainwashedAndCrazy
*ChristmasCake
*CombatStilettos
*DeadlyDoctor: Okay, school nurse, but idea is the same
*HospitalHottie
*HotScientist: After ''United By Fate'', she becomes a chemistry teacher (no, not ''that'' kind of chemistry)
*HotTeacher
*KotonoMitsuishi
*LadyDrunk: A younger version, albeit she still loves her sake.
*MagicSkirt
*{{Meganekko}}
*SchoolNurse
*SweaterGirl

*BadassDecay: In ''United By Fate'', he turns out to be another brainwashed servant of [[TheManBehindTheMan Hyo]]. In ''Project Justice'', an attack by Kurow that hospitalizes Raizo is used as the excuse for why he doesn't show up as a playable character. For a character whose appearance and initial portrayal cast him as the apparent BigBad, that's a hell of downgrade for him.
*BeardOfEvil: And a very bushy and spiky one at that
*BigGuy
*BrainwashedAndCrazy
*DiscOneFinalBoss: To Hyo in ''United By Fate''
*FastballSpecial: Does this for his assist move
*[=~Hey, It's That Voice!~=]: Raizo's seiyuu, Tomomichi Nishimura, was once Capcom's go-to guy for villain voices - prior to voicing Raizo, he also did the voice for ''StreetFighter Alpha'' M. Bison and was the long-time voice of Akuma prior to ''SFIV''. You can damn near hear Akuma whenever Raizo calls out his attacks.
*HighClassGlass: Has one spiffy monocle (which tends to get knocked off during fights, of course)
*LargeAndInCharge: Do ''you'' know of any school principals built like a grizzly bear?
*LukeIAmYourFather: In ''United By Fate'', we find out Raizo is Batsu's long-lost father, [[ItsNotYouItsMyEnemies whom he left to not get him and his wife involved in the politics of his ninja clan]]
*TomomichiNishimura
*UglyGuyHotWife: Have you seen his wife Shizuku? Raizo lucked out on that one.
*TheWorfEffect: When Capcom needed to prove how dangerous Kurow was, Raizo was the one that took a savage beating that sidelined him at the start of ''Project Justice'''s story.

*BattleAura: As Demon Hyo
*DemonicPossession
*HeelFaceTurn
*KanetoShiozawa
*KnightTemplar: His plan in ''United By Fate'' is to take over the schools (and eventually Japan) to convince people that his way of living is correct. This trait gets (literally) beaten out of him by Kyosuke and his Taiyo classmates
*MagnificentBastard
*NonIdenticalTwins: with Kyosuke
*RealLifeWritesThePlot: [[spoiler:Hyo is killed off in ''Project Justice'' following the death of his voice actor.]]
*TrueFinalBoss: In ''United By Fate''
*WhiteHairedPrettyBoy

*AlliterativeName
*AnimeHair: A [[http://www.fightersgeneration.com/characters2/kurow-sideprof.jpg masculine version]] of his sister Yurika's curls, consisting of a sweeping side-parting combined with a large, tightly curled ringlet. As well as having a penchant for ringlets, both Kirishima siblings share a similar ash-brown hair colour.
*BinShimada
*BrotherSisterIncest: The [[MultipleEndings Darkside Student Council ending]] strongly implies that he might lust after his older sister Yurika.
*EvilLaugh
*ManipulativeBastard
*MasterOfDisguise: Throughout ''Project Justice'', he disguises himself as Batsu in order to get Batsu's friends to mistrust him. This fake's playable as "[[SpellMyNameWithAnS Vatsu]]".
*{{Mukokuseki}}
*MusicalAssassin: Somewhat - he uses a flute to brainwash his victims, but doesn't use it in actual fighting.
*RedRightHand: When disguised as Batsu, his eyes and grin are the main signs that all is not what it seems...
*SiblingYinYang: Where his sister Yurika is timid, gentle and polite, Kurow is violent, ruthless and power-mad.
*SlasherSmile
*SmugSnake
*SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Has ''all'' of Raizo's special moves, plus a few new ones added in for variety.
*WolverineClaws

* RealWomenNeverWearDresses: Her personal outlook on life, given the EmbarassingMiddleName example above. Ironically, she defies the trope on a literal level, wearing a rather long skirt as part of her uniform.

*EmbarrassingMiddleName: Zaki hates having "hime" ("princess") in her name, hence why she prefers the other half of her surname

*AlliterativeName
*BecomingTheMask: Comes to really care for the students he pretended to befriend, hence his HeelFaceTurn
*{{Bishonen}}
*IsshinChiba
*NonIdenticalTwins: with Hyo
*NotSoStoic: When [[spoiler:Hyo dies]] in ''Project Justice'', he screams in horror and sadness.
*StoicSpectacles

*BadassTeacher
*CoolOldGuy, despite not being that old
*DrillSergeantNasty
*GoNagaiSideburns: And how!
*HotBlooded
*MeaningfulName: His last name is the Japanese word for "hot blooded"
*NerfArm: his bamboo staff
*TakumiYamazaki

*ClassRepresentative
*EveryGirlIsCuterWithHairDecs: Wears a hairband.
*IdiotHair
*JokeCharacter: Except for her assist, which then makes her a...
**LethalJokeCharacter: Seriously. She's the ONLY one able to fill up both gauges when assisting
*MadeOfPlasticine: One of her victory poses has her injure herself ''while celebrating her win''.
*MegumiToyoguchi
*NoNameGiven: Her real name is never given; she always insists on being referred to by her position.

*AkikoHiramatsu
*GenkiGirl
*GoingForTheBigScoop: Her motivation in both games - she desperately wants to get the big scoop for Taiyo's student newspaper, even if it bring danger on her and her friends.
*HotScoop
*ImprobableWeaponUser: her camera
*SchoolNewspaperNewsHound
*SkirtOverSlacks

*BrainlessBeauty: Oh so very much.

*TheCheerleader: She's a relatively benign version.
