[[spoiler: Lelouch's rise in ranks take him from low down positions in Squad's 10, 2 and 12 before moving back to Squad 10 and then transferring to Squad 6 and then Squad 13. He is then later promoted to 3rd seat and Deputy Research Department Head of Squad 12 before going back to Squad 10 to become its Vice-Captain and later the Captain itself, which is where he currently stands]]. Lelouch's greatest enemy and the man he hates the most is Aizen. Aizen has caused both directly and indirectly [[spoiler: The death of Lelouch's first captain, Mari Akari and her successor Yuna Homura, of whom Lelouch loved, but never told her]], and the banishment of Kisuke Urahara, Yoruichi Shihoin, [[spoiler: Soifon]], Tessai Tsukabishi and Isshin Kurosaki. Lelouch, to fight Aizen, has notably gathered quite the bit of huge support around him over the years and eventually their confrontation finally comes to pass. Lelouch's Zanpakuto is called [[spoiler: Eien Tamashi]] and [[spoiler: his Bankai is called Zero no Seishin no Eien Tamashi]]
* AdaptationalBadass: [[BadassAbnormal Physically of course.]] [[TheChessmaster Mentally he is pretty much the king]]. In his [[CodeGeass home series]] Lelouch couldn't run down a hallway without losing his breath. While he's still something of a GlassCannon here, he is a far cry from what he once was. For better reference compare Lelouch in chapter 4 to [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking what]] [[WeakButSkilled he]] [[TookALevelInBadass becomes]] [[BewareTheNiceOnes much]] [[PlayingWithFire later]].
--> '''[[WordOfGod draconichero20]]: 'Tis what happens when you mix Shonen with Seinen.
* AFatherToHisMen: After some character development, Lelouch decides to walk this path for real. Thanks to spending more a 100 years in Soul Society, he has finally come to be more closer and friendlier to those serving under him and is willing to risk his life to fight and protect them if he must unlike how during when he was alive, he kept his distance from Kallen and the Black Knights in which it leads to his downfall to despair.
* AManIsNotAVirgin: Brought up time and again in the series. In chapter 33 [[spoiler:He FINALLY loses his virginity to Nemu and they become a couple. Temporarily]]. Since then Lelouch has [[spoiler: slept with both Susanna and Rangiku, and more recently Isane and the resurrected Yuna Homura]].
* AngstWhatAngst: After knowing about his past, this confuses the hell out of Aizen, who can't work out why Lelouch hasn't [[HeroicBSOD completely broken down]]. [[spoiler:It did help him break down, he was just THAT good at hiding it from Aizen due to his past.]]
* [[spoiler: ArrestedForHeroism: After revealing himself as Zero to the entire Gotei despite the fact that he had just [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu killed Aizen]]. One notable distinction is that he ALSO planned for this result.]]
* [[spoiler: AttemptedRape:]] Or a very similar equivalent [[spoiler:on Momo while sleep deprived planning the downfall of Central Forty-Six. [[GetAHoldOfYourselfMan With some help from Momo]], [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone he stops himself before it became this trope.]]]]
* [[spoiler: AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: In chapter 34 Lelouch becomes a captain]].
* AwesomenessByAnalysis
* BadassCreed: As Zero.
--> '''Zero''': I am the Black Void. I am the Mind of Steel. I am the Just Phantom. With my own two hands I shall purge the corruption of this world with the light of redemption and divinity. I am Zero!
** WordOfGod says this was inspired by [[BlazBlue another masked individual that Zero closely resembles]].
* BatmanGambit: [[spoiler: From the Fall of Talbumosuke Arc he employs several of these]]
** [[spoiler: He has Yamamoto go Bankai creating an intense amount of heat in a frigid atmosphere that gets blown in Hitsugaya’s direction allowing Hitsugaya to LimitBreak]]
** [[spoiler: He also uses Yamamoto and Urahara to fight Talbumosuke in his toughest form until it runs out of juice so that Lelouch and Yuna can pick up the pieces. He combines this with his other gambit to get [[HeelFaceTurn Gin to come to his side]] and in what could a brilliant CallBack to when he had Mao focus all of his attention on him, ignoring Suzaku, Talbumosuke focuses all of his attention on Lelouch and doesn’t, for a second, notice Gin until it’s too late]].
* BerserkButton: Go ahead, harm Nemu or any of the other individuals he cares about. [[ShmuckBait I dare you]].
** Do ''not'' mock [[spoiler: his fallen captain Yuna]].
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Yeah, despite his dark tendencies, and how close he is considered as a Villain Protagonist once was when he was alive, he has shown that he is a pretty cool and decent guy to hang around with...when he's not busy scheming his next plan of course. Remember one thing: do not make him your enemy and don't ever hurt those close to him because you will regret you ever messed with him in the first place. [[spoiler: Just ask Szayel or Mayuri]].
* BoringButPractical: Lelouch is rather fond of Kyokko, which turns things invisible and undetectable.
* BrassBalls: He [[spoiler: ''interrupts and yells back to Yamamoto'']] to get his point across about quincies.
* BreakHerHeartToSaveHer: Does this to [[spoiler: Nemu]] because he doesn't want her or anyone else wrapped up in his schemes and feeling sorry for him when he goes up against Aizen for he feels he will have to sacrifice a lot to do so.
* CombatPragmatist
* ChickMagnet: It seems that even after he dies, his charm with the ladies is still going on very strong. However...
* CloudCuckoolander: While drunk. Omake chapters [[CrowningMomentOfFunny 82.97]] and [[AlternateUniverseReedRichardsIsAwesome 90.67]] provide perfect examples.
* CluelessChickMagnet: He can't always tell when it's true love. Lelouch knows he has a [[MrFanservice certain effect on women]], he just has a hard time telling when it’s ''actual'' love. [[RunningGag His Zanpakuto has called him clueless whenever this trope came into effect]]. Take note that he ''does'' dismiss what he recognizes as mere infatuation.
* [[spoiler: CreateYourOwnVillain: Lelouch turned [[DragonAscendant Talbumosuke]] into the [[FromNobodyToNightmare nightmare]] that he is because he killed his family and [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu Aizen]]. It also the main reason why he averts his usual EvilGloating against him after his death.]]
* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: His first ever was [[spoiler: Geassing Mayuri never to harm [[MoralityPet Nemu]] again]]. But what has to be his most epic accomplishment ever would have to be [[spoiler: Geassing [[VillainSue Aizen]] to commit suicide and [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu having it work]]]].
* CryIntoChest: Lelouch becomes the comforting shoulder for a lot of characters.
* DarkIsNotEvil: His Zanpakuto's power.
* [[spoiler: DefiantToTheEnd: Stares down Kokuto with unwavering vigor despite the situation being hopeless. Kokuto even [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] this trope]].
* [[spoiler: DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: Yes he did. In chapter 48, Lelouch [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome does the impossible]] and actually kills [[VillainSue Aizen]]]].
* [[spoiler: DidNotGetTheGirl: AGAIN! At the end of chapter 19. It's obvious he did indeed love Yuna, but she died before he could tell her how he really felt]].
** [[spoiler: Subverted now as Yuna's [[BackFromTheDead been revived]] and they're together. Along with [[TenchiSolution Isane, Susanna and Nemu]]]].
* DracoInLeatherPants: In-universe example as he is this to [[UndyingLoyalty Susanna]]. WordOfGod officially states that he can do no wrong in her eyes. It’s very evident in chapter 99 when [[spoiler: Lelouch shoots Susanna in the stomach with Hado 4: Byakurai and she still insists on following him, not even caring that he just attacked her]].
* [[spoiler: EasilyForgiven]]: Subverted, hard. After [[spoiler: [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu defeating Aizen]] Yamamoto has Lelouch arrested for his actions as Zero and in order to investigate his geass]]. This of course was [[AllAccordingToPlan all a part of Lelouch's plan]] as TheAtoner. What he didn't expect though was [[spoiler:[[DoubleSubversion an unanimous decision for an acquittal]]]].
* EvilGloating: Does this during his battles with Maki Ichinose, [[spoiler: hollow Nnoitora]] and after [[spoiler: He [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu kills Aizen]]]]. Surprisingly [[AvertedTrope averted]] after he defeats [[spoiler: Talbumosuke [[AlasPoorVillain especially after looking in his locket]]. He himself noted that he drove him to become what he is and is one of his biggest regrets, and he personally hopes that in the next life that he and Mia are reunited and happy together.]]
* [[spoiler: FakeDefector: Apparently defects to the side of the Zanpakuto during the Reapers and Heralds arc. He is helping Byakuya.]]
* [[spoiler: FailureKnight: to Yuna]].
* ForegoneConclusion: Chapter 17 reveals that [[spoiler: the [[FishOutOfTemporalWater temporally displaced]] Lelouch will eventually [[TemporalParadox confront his hollow self]] while protecting Kallen]]. Since this has yet to happen, and since [[spoiler: if the events of CodeGeass were to change it would cause Soul Reaper Lelouch to [[CriticalExistenceFailure cease to exist]], we know that Zero Requiem MUST happen. Captain Lelouch, [[YouCannotFightFate knowing]] [[MyGreatestFailure the tragedies that]] [[DespairEventHorizon would take place]], [[AvertedTrope cannot do anything]] [[SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong to prevent it from happening again]]]], the series cannot end and [[spoiler: [[InvincibleHero Captain Lelouch cannot die]] [[JustifiedTrope until this occurs]]]].
* FirstNameBasis: This trope's effect is most profound in regards to his relationship with Yuna. In fact she is the only one who has an obvious or implied interest in him that doesn't use any honorifics when referring to him when compared to [[LikeBrotherAndSister Nemu's]] Lelouch-sama, [[UndyingLoyalty Susanna's]] Lelouch-dono, and Isane's Lelouch-kun. [[UnluckyBustyGirl Rangiku]] will sometimes refer to Lelouch as her captain. [[RescueRomance Momo]] consistently refers to him as Lamperouge-sensei. [[CannotSpitItOut Kukaku]] is simply informal with everyone.
* [[spoiler: FishOutOfTemporalWater]].
* GameBreaker: Chapter 124 shows just how his Geass can be this and why constant justification is needed to keep Lelouch from using it. [[spoiler: Weaponizing DrivenToSuicide really does seem like a GameBreaker.]]
* GenreSavvy: He has his moments. See ThrowTheDogABone below.
** In chapter 89 right as he’s about to [[spoiler: finish Talbumosuke off. The prototype hollow mask he was using shatters]]. Lelouch responds with an internal “That figures”.
** He also realized that [[spoiler:Yamamoto will not survive his confrontation against Aizen, so he GEASSED him to [[DyingMomentOfAwesome "Fight the enemy forces until your last breath. Fight them until it is impossible for you to fight any longer!"]]]]
* GlassCannon
* GoKartingWithBowser: Despite the fact that he and Aizen are engaged in a game of XanatosSpeedChess spanning across several decades they can still play a friendly game of chess.
* GuileHero with [[ScienceHero some experience as a scientist]].
* [[spoiler: HeroicBSOD: Has one when he finds out that he's been [[FishOutOfTemporalWater sent to the past]] and again when Yuna dies]].
** [[spoiler: Has it again when he finds out Susanna is pregnant with his child]].
* HeroProtagonist <--> TheProtagonist: Switches between these roles depending on his current position in the story and his gambits in play. [[CharacterDevelopment He will NEVER go back to being a]] VillainProtagonist, sure he may have a few WhatTheHellHero moments here and there but will NEVER go back to being one.
* HesBack: After fifteen years of shunning everyone and seemingly preparing [[spoiler: to take on Aizen all on his own]], [[spoiler: he jumps back into play]] with a single coded message from Urahara.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Not in the way you think though. Lelouch has a technique [[spoiler: in Bankai]] that involves invoking this trope on his opponents.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Subverted. Lelouch's Zanpakuto's release form gives him a cape, but it's not used for combat.
* InTheNameOfTheMoon: See his BadassCreed above.
* KickTheDog: [[spoiler:Taking out Tekubi-kiri Tamashi (Nemu's Zanpakuto). And then it was [[FakingTheDead subverted like crazy]].]]
* LegacyCharacter: When Lelouch restores one of his lost memories from a past life, he discovers that neither his current afterlife nor his previous human life were the first times a revolutionary called Zero existed. Of course, this is also somewhat of a subversion because those previous Zeros were also him, in a way.
* LetsGetDangerous: Whips out [[spoiler: a ''level 90 hado'']] in order to protect Momo and his other students in her class from hollows.
** His first tactical decision during the Battle For Karakura Town arc makes use of this trope. It goes a little something like this: “What? [[spoiler: Ikkaku and Sajin]] were defeated? Better send [[ImplacableMan Ken]][[MadeOfDiamond pa]][[BloodKnight chi ]] [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill in]].”
* LetThemDieHappy: Makes sure of this for [[spoiler: Mari]].
* LikeBrotherAndSister: Him and [[spoiler: Nemu]]. [[BrotherSisterIncest Though that doesn't mean much given his history]].
* LoopholeAbuse: According to Kukaku [[spoiler:and Soifon]] he has a knack for finding them.
* MindRape: His Zanpakuto's Kokoro Hassai ability.
* MyGreatestFailure: Besides [[RhetoricalRequestBlunder all of the things]] [[ILetGwenStacyDie he regrets from]] [[DespairEventHorizon when he was alive]] there's also now [[spoiler: the [[DoomedByCanon unavoidable]] deaths of Mari and [[DiedInYourArmsTonight ESPEC]][[PoorCommunicationKills IALLY]] Yuna]].
* [[spoiler:MyGreatestSecondChance: After successfully reviving Yuna, their relationship is now this.]]
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Lelouch has caused the collapse of the Shihoin family, [[spoiler: allowed the more dangerous Talbumosuke to take over the Espada in place of Aizen]], [[spoiler: allowing Kaien to live]] gave birth to Mia, [[spoiler: killed off Nnoitora early allowing Nel to stay on the Espada]], attacked Lilynette with MindRape prompting Starrk to attack with full force, [[spoiler: His [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu killing of Aizen]] also [[JustForPun killed off]] Gin's reason to HeelFaceTurn]], and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Talbumosuke is using Lelouch's Sorting Algorithm of Hollows for his own purposes]].
** [[spoiler: [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu Sending Aizen to hell]] gave the man natural togabito resistance to Soul Reaper attacks, making it easier for Aizen to [[CurbStompBattle rapestomp]] Soul Society]].
* NotSoDifferent: From Ichigo.
* OutGambitted: Lelouch is starting to feel this way towards [[spoiler: Talbumosuke]]. It helps his enemy in that Lelouch is unaware of how he thinks and originally [[FromNobodyToNightmare was not much of a threat]].
** You would be forgiven for thinking Lelouch had [[TookALevelInDumbass taken a level in dumbass]] during the Battle of Karakura Arc. It's not his fault, he has no knowledge of Talbumosuke's potential. [[spoiler: How was he supposed to know Talbumosuke could wipe out the Visoreds in a single move?]]
*** It's like we always say, once things start looking good for Lelouch it starts blowing up in his face
* PetTheDog: Gives Renji an uplifting speech so that he understands that he’s not useless or weak despite the rough time he’s been going through lately.
* PlayingHardToGet: Towards Rangiku, not that it's intentional all the time. It's ultimately subverted in chapter 61 though.
* ProperlyParanoid: with regards to Aizen
* [[spoiler: RelationshipUpgrade: Lelouch has had sex with Nemu, Susanna and Rangiku. Judging by the fact that we haven't reached Code Geass canon yet, it's not over for Lelouch in relationships yet. The middle got pregnant with his kid, but [[ConvenientMiscarriage lost it]]. The former was his girlfriend until Lelouch [[BreakHerHeartToSaveHer brutally broke up with her]], but now they're back together.]]
** [[spoiler: After successfully bringing back Yuna Homura, he plans to start a Noble House and [[MarryThemAll marries Nemu, Susanna, Isane, and Yuna]].]]
*** [[spoiler: And the it gets subverted with the deconstruction of the clan]]
* [[spoiler: ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: What Lelouch's motivation in planning to bring down Central Forty-Six after overthrowing Hitsugaya's authority as Captain on account of MISDEMEANORS.]]
* [[spoiler: ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem: What Lelouch is doing with the House of Lamperouge as its founder]].
** [[spoiler: Subverted. The clan's been deconstructed]]
* SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong: Brutally Averted. [[spoiler: After learning that he was sent to Soul Society in a [[TemporalParadox Temporal Paradox]], Lelouch thought that maybe he can change the major tragic events of what went wrong in his life since technically the tragic events that happened in his past life didn't happened yet, but he then later learns that changing the tragic events yet to come in Code Geass canon will make his Soul Reaper self to cease to exist and so, he begrudgingly decides to not interfere with the events that will follow in order to keep his existance, much to his displeasure of hearing.]]
* [[spoiler: SexForSolace: Lelouch has had the opportunity of being on both sides of this trope. In chapter 49 Susanna lays down with him to heal his soul and in chapter 61 he is helping Rangiku heal hers]].
* ShipperOnDeck: For Byakuya/Hisana, Ichigo/Orihime[[spoiler:, and despite sleeping with her Gin/Rangiku]].
* ShmuckBait: Lelouch has a safe in his office that's easy to open and another that opening it in a conventional manner triggers an alarm.
* ShutUpHannibal: Does this to Talbumosuke after the man begins to get under his skin.
* SquishyWizard
* StartOfDarkness: Lelouch initially starts on TheAtoner path. It is [[spoiler: Mari's death]] that makes Lelouch slink back into [[ManipulativeBastard old]] [[MagnificentBastard habits]].
* [[spoiler: StealthMentor: As of the Reapers and Heralds arc.]]
* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: After defeating Maki Ichinose, Lelouch [[spoiler: picks up his skull]] and recites a line from Hamlet. Talbumosuke recites this same line after [[spoiler: [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu defeating Baraggan]]]].
* [[TechnicolorFire Technicolor]] {{Fireballs}}: A power of his Shikai.
* TemptingFate: Lelouch closes chapter 30 by musing to his zanpakuto about how things are definitely looking up for him. One would think he'd know his luck doesn't work that way by now.
** As one reviewer put it: Things are looking up for Lelouch. Something very bad is about to happen.
** [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Eien Tamashi in chapter 33.
*** And [[spoiler:essentially confirmed by the events of chapter 34]].
** In chapter 53 he says that he hopes to avoid attracting attention from the female student body. He gets about two steps before getting swarmed.
* TheAtoner: Lelouch initially started out wanting to follow the path of atonement but decides to set it aside after [[spoiler: Mari's death]] in favor of doing whatever it takes to bring down Aizen and currently [[spoiler: Talbumosuke]]. Although recently, there are hints that he may return to the path of atonement once when we return to the Code Geass timeline and one thing is for sure, it will take a lot for him to make up for what he has done for all of the innocent people who suffered under his actions, especially for Euphie and Shirley.
* [[spoiler:TheClan: Has plans to start a Noble House to help cope with his [[MarryThemAll extensive love life]].]]
** [[spoiler: [[YankTheDogsChain Unfortunately, due to what Lelouch has risked during his time as a Fake Defector, it sadly doesn't come to fruition.]]]]
* TheOnlyOneITrust: He is this to Byakuya in regards to [[spoiler: needing a partner in regards to taking down Muramasa]]. [[HoYay make of that what you will]]
* ThrowTheDogABone: For one time fate finally decides to cut Lelouch a break after tormenting him for so long. [[spoiler: When restoring Hana to be Yuna practically nothing goes wrong]]. Lelouch, of course, [[LampshadeHanging lampshades this]]
* TookALevelInBadass: Besides the fact that Lelouch is a Shinigami [[spoiler:Captain, his Geass has evolved into Mastery as a result of the Reapers and Heralds arc.]]
* [[spoiler: TreacherousAdvisor: To Muramasa]]
* {{Troll}}: Lelouch lets Aizen obtain the Hogyoku, beat him in a straight up fight and make his retreat. And then [[spoiler: Lelouch grabs [[AscendedExtra Yoruichi's flying device]] flies up to Aizen and [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome '''GEASSES HIM TO KILL HIMSELF''']]]].
* WalkingShirtlessScene: More like [[spoiler: hanging by his wrists]] almost buck naked scene. Chapter 110 has him doing this in hell.
* WeakButSkilled: Lelouch is NOT someone who can fight in the front-lines but is more than capable to defending himself.
* [[spoiler: WeCanRuleTogether: Gives this option to Ichigo when he reveals to be working for Muramasa. He is a FakeDefector so he WANTS Ichigo to refuse.]]
* WeHaveReserves: Does this with the Visoreds. [[spoiler: [[TheWorfEffect Too bad they're all taken down before they can do anything]]]].
* WhatTheHellHero: He gets a big one in chapter 30 for [[spoiler: burning and slaughtering the Atrumier family. [[AssholeVictim Not that they didn't deserve it]], well not ALL of the members.]]
** Flat out stated word for word, minus the hero portion, by Ichigo to him in chapter 98 when he [[spoiler: slaps Susanna and reveals himself to be on Muramasa’s side]].
*** And again in chapter 104 from Ichigo about even after he reveals his true intentions
* XanatosRoulette: His entire plan during the Reapers and Heralds arc. It’s just...way too damn complicated to explain in words.
* [[spoiler: YankTheDogsChain: Several times. With [[DiedInYourArmsTonight Yuna]] though she [[BackFromTheDead came back]], [[ConvenientMiscarriage Susanna]] and now his TenchiSolution has been deconstructed]]
* YouAreNotAlone: Lelouch is slowly starting to grasp ar this concept.
* YourHeadAsplode: If Lelouch uses [[MindRape Kokoro Hassai]] on a particularly weak enemy or an enemy with no mental resistance this is the result instead.
!! Ichigo Kurosaki
The HeroProtagonist of Bleach now a SupportingProtagonist in the fic. Ichigo doesn't hit the series for a few arcs, but he's still relatively the same orange haired JerkWithAHeartOfGold fans remember
* BadassNormal: While [[spoiler: rescuing Orihime from [[AttemptedRape being raped]] by a group of thugs]].
* BringMyBrownPants: In chapter 110, Ichigo and Kasumi are blocked off by this monster with three tentacles for a body. Each tentacle is about two to three times the size of Ichigo and Kasumi. It turns out that those are just the eyelashes. Ichigo is scared out of his mind when he sees [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever how big the creature actually is]].
* BroughtDownToBadass: Ichigo’s Zanpakuto is currently [[spoiler: completely sealed up [[SealedEvilInACan for his own safety]]]]. Consider [[KnightTemplarBigBrother who we're]] [[TheDeterminator talking about]], it’s this trope rather than [[BroughtDownToNormal the other one]]
* BullyingADragon: Subverted. Ichigo tells Allon to [[SmiteMeOMightySmiter attack him with his strongest punch]]. Allon obliges, but Ichigo blocks it with minimal effort.
* [[spoiler: DeadAllAlong: Ever since regaining his powers after Hisana shatters his Soul Chain and Urahara puts him through TrainingFromHell he’s been this according to Kendra]].
** [[spoiler: Even without her saying it this should really come across as FridgeBrilliance to a degree]]
* DidNotDoTheResearch: In-universe. He too mistook [[RunningGag Ikumi’s business for an eel shop]] only to be corrected by Tatsuki.
* [[spoiler: EasilyForgiven: Sort of. He doesn’t get reprimanded for what his hollow did due to the clause that he had no control over himself at all, though the SS still could punish him, but with Ginjo soon coming into the picture they’ll know whether or not he’s worth keeping around]].
* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: Despite all the precautions and preparations [[spoiler:to prevent his inner demon from emerging, it would emerge in the Demon Within arc.]]
* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: Does this for [[spoiler: Kenpachi]] due to [[spoiler: his]] HeroicBSOD.
* [[spoiler: HeroicBSOD: Suffers a major one when he becomes aware of the damage done to his surroundings, beneath his notice, by Tsukishima and Keigo. He actually starts crying. Yoruichi comforts him]].
* HeroicWillpower: Weaponized during [[spoiler: the climax for Yamamoto's battle with [[FanNickname Shirosaki]]]].
* IAmNotMyFather: States the trope verbatum at one point.
* ImplacableMan: Sort of. With his TrainingFromHell, courtesy of Lelouch, Ichigo can now manually regenerate his [[FanNickname Pimp coat]], which we all know is a ManaMeter, which means Ichigo can constantly fight with full reiatsu if he focuses. Wounds will still take their full course though.
* LeaveHimToMe: Says this to Lelouch with regards to fighting Allon that he doesn’t want any help.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Ichigo has the nickname “Soul Reaper” amongst the gang system throughout Karakura Town.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: While he and his friends managed to eliminate some of the Espada. This is [[AllAccordingToPlan exactly what]] [[spoiler: Talbumosuke]] [[XanatosGambit wanted]]. He had more to gain this way.
* NotSoDifferent: From Cornelia. Both are [[KnightTemplarBigBrother Knight Templar Siblings]] and constructed their paths because they want to protect those they care about.
** This also applies in part to Lelouch as well to a lesser degree. And of course there are the [[HeyItsThatVoice vocal]] [[JohnnyYongBosch similarities]].
* OutOfTheInferno: Ichigo pulls this twice in the Different Bonds arc.
* [[spoiler: RelationshipUpgrade: He and Orihime are dating as of chapter 69]].
** [[spoiler: In chapter 74 they have sex]].
* ReasonYouSuckSpeech: Delivers an oh so satisfying one to Takeno during his VillainousBreakdown
* SandInMyEyes: What he says more or less upon Lelouch’s reunion with [[spoiler: [[BackFromTheDead Mari]]]]
* [[spoiler: SplitPersonalityTakeover: Hollow Ichigo possesses Ichigo’s body for the last chapter of the Demon Within arc]]
* [[spoiler: StoryBreakerPower: His Resurreccion as shown to us by his inner hollow. Ichigo, nobly, wants nothing to do with it because it would devoid what makes him human]].
* SupportingProtagonist: To Lelouch.
* [[spoiler: TakenForGranite: He’s turned to stone by Lelouch due to his [[TooPowerfulToLive massive power]]]]
* TellMeAboutMyFather: Says this to Lelouch when he discovers Isshin's true nature much earlier than in canon.
* TemptingFate: Ichigo tells Rukia during the Demon Within arc that he’ll come back safe and sound. [[CaptainObvious this is not]] [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption what happened]].
* TookALevelInBadass: Compare [[LeeroyJenkins canon]] [[UnskilledButStrong Ichigo]] with [[TranquilFury the]] [[CombatPragmatist current]] [[LightningBruiser version]].
* [[spoiler: TooPowerfulToLive: Subverted. He is sealed away by Lelouch, but he comes back to normal as good ol’ normal Ichigo again. As normal as a teenage boy with the ability to move at supersonic speeds and carry a bigass sword and fire [[SwordBeam sword beams]] can be]].
* ThanksForTheMammary: Ichigo accidentaly grabs Kukaku's breast when trying to get her phone, which has [[ItMakesSenseInContext a picture of him and Isane cuddling]]. Kukaku, naturally, [[UnstoppableRage flips out]].
* UnskilledButStrong: [[spoiler:Though training with Lelouch fixed the Unskilled part.]]
** On the other hand [[spoiler: This fits his half-hollow berserk form to a T. It’s lampshaded by Unohana when she realizes how predictable and tiring his NoIAmBehindYou tactic becomes]].
* WalkingShirtlessScene: Has one while acting as [[TengenToppaGurrenLagann Kamina]] for a cosplay project.
* [[spoiler: WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: His theorized Resurreccion, but only while he takes its form]]
!! Cornelia li Britannia
According to the events of Chapter 58, Cornelia will have an entire arc centered around her, putting her as another main supporting protagonist late in the fic. Of course [[WordOfGod this isn't supposed to occur for quite a while]]
* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[spoiler: That moment in chapter 58 where it's revealed that when Cornelia was 10 years old, she can actually see spirits? [[SarcasmMode Oh yeah, it won't be mentioned again and it won't be important to her character development, that's for sure]]]].
* GoshDarnItToHeck: Justified in the usage of this trope in chapter 58 because she's [[ChildrenAreInnocent only 10 years old]].
* [[spoiler: ISeeDeadPeople: Cornelia has spiritual power enough to see wholes, hollows and Soul Reapers]].
* NotSoDifferent: Her and Ichigo. Both are [[KnightTemplarBigBrother Knight Templar Siblings]] and constructed their paths so that they could protect those close to them.
* [[spoiler:TookALevelInJerkass: Apparently so seeing how she [[UsedToBeASweetKid was such a sweet girl at age 10]] even Lelouch is surprised when he found out in Chapter 84]].
[[DeadToBeginWith He's died and gone to the afterlife, but his journey has only just begun.]] The driving protagonist of the series, Lelouch starts out in Rukongai and becomes a Soul Reaper, but he slowly but surely [[TookALevelInBadass ascends to]] [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking greater levels]]. [[spoiler: Lelouch's rise in ranks take him from low down positions in Squad's 10, 2 and 12 before moving back to Squad 10 and then transferring to Squad 6 and then Squad 13. He is then later promoted to 3rd seat and Deputy Research Department Head of Squad 12 before going back to Squad 10 to become its Vice-Captain and later the Captain itself, which is where he currently stands]]. Lelouch's greatest enemy and the man he hates the most is Aizen. Aizen has caused both directly and indirectly [[spoiler: The death of Lelouch's first captain, Mari Akari and her successor Yuna Homura, of whom Lelouch loved, but never told her]], and the banishment of Kisuke Urahara, Yoruichi Shihoin, [[spoiler: Soifon]], Tessai Tsukabishi and Isshin Kurosaki. Lelouch, to fight Aizen, has notably gathered quite the bit of huge support around him over the years and eventually their confrontation finally comes to pass. Lelouch's Zanpakuto is called [[spoiler: Eien Tamashi]] and [[spoiler: his Bankai is called Zero no Seishin no Eien Tamashi]]
* AdaptationalBadass: [[BadassAbnormal Physically of course.]] [[TheChessmaster Mentally he is pretty much the king]]. In his [[CodeGeass home series]] Lelouch couldn't run down a hallway without losing his breath. While he's still something of a GlassCannon here, he is a far cry from what he once was. For better reference compare Lelouch in chapter 4 to [[AuthorityEqualsAsskicking what]] [[WeakButSkilled he]] [[TookALevelInBadass becomes]] [[BewareTheNiceOnes much]] [[PlayingWithFire later]].
--> '''[[WordOfGod draconichero20]]: 'Tis what happens when you mix Shonen with Seinen.
* AFatherToHisMen: After some character development, Lelouch decides to walk this path for real. Thanks to spending more a 100 years in Soul Society, he has finally come to be more closer and friendlier to those serving under him and is willing to risk his life to fight and protect them if he must unlike how during when he was alive, he kept his distance from Kallen and the Black Knights in which it leads to his downfall to despair.
* AManIsNotAVirgin: Brought up time and again in the series. In chapter 33 [[spoiler:He FINALLY loses his virginity to Nemu and they become a couple. Temporarily]]. Since then Lelouch has [[spoiler: slept with both Susanna and Rangiku, and more recently Isane and the resurrected Yuna Homura]].
* AngstWhatAngst: After knowing about his past, this confuses the hell out of Aizen, who can't work out why Lelouch hasn't [[HeroicBSOD completely broken down]]. [[spoiler:It did help him break down, he was just THAT good at hiding it from Aizen due to his past.]]
* [[spoiler: ArrestedForHeroism: After revealing himself as Zero to the entire Gotei despite the fact that he had just [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu killed Aizen]]. One notable distinction is that he ALSO planned for this result.]]
* [[spoiler: AttemptedRape:]] Or a very similar equivalent [[spoiler:on Momo while sleep deprived planning the downfall of Central Forty-Six. [[GetAHoldOfYourselfMan With some help from Momo]], [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone he stops himself before it became this trope.]]]]
* [[spoiler: AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: In chapter 34 Lelouch becomes a captain]].
* AwesomenessByAnalysis
* BadassCreed: As Zero.
--> '''Zero''': I am the Black Void. I am the Mind of Steel. I am the Just Phantom. With my own two hands I shall purge the corruption of this world with the light of redemption and divinity. I am Zero!
** WordOfGod says this was inspired by [[BlazBlue another masked individual that Zero closely resembles]].
* BatmanGambit: [[spoiler: From the Fall of Talbumosuke Arc he employs several of these]]
** [[spoiler: He has Yamamoto go Bankai creating an intense amount of heat in a frigid atmosphere that gets blown in Hitsugaya’s direction allowing Hitsugaya to LimitBreak]]
** [[spoiler: He also uses Yamamoto and Urahara to fight Talbumosuke in his toughest form until it runs out of juice so that Lelouch and Yuna can pick up the pieces. He combines this with his other gambit to get [[HeelFaceTurn Gin to come to his side]] and in what could a brilliant CallBack to when he had Mao focus all of his attention on him, ignoring Suzaku, Talbumosuke focuses all of his attention on Lelouch and doesn’t, for a second, notice Gin until it’s too late]].
* BerserkButton: Go ahead, harm Nemu or any of the other individuals he cares about. [[ShmuckBait I dare you]].
** Do ''not'' mock [[spoiler: his fallen captain Yuna]].
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Yeah, despite his dark tendencies, and how close he is considered as a Villain Protagonist once was when he was alive, he has shown that he is a pretty cool and decent guy to hang around with...when he's not busy scheming his next plan of course. Remember one thing: do not make him your enemy and don't ever hurt those close to him because you will regret you ever messed with him in the first place. [[spoiler: Just ask Szayel or Mayuri]].
* BoringButPractical: Lelouch is rather fond of Kyokko, which turns things invisible and undetectable.
* BrassBalls: He [[spoiler: ''interrupts and yells back to Yamamoto'']] to get his point across about quincies.
* BreakHerHeartToSaveHer: Does this to [[spoiler: Nemu]] because he doesn't want her or anyone else wrapped up in his schemes and feeling sorry for him when he goes up against Aizen for he feels he will have to sacrifice a lot to do so.
* CombatPragmatist
* ChickMagnet: It seems that even after he dies, his charm with the ladies is still going on very strong. However...
* CloudCuckoolander: While drunk. Omake chapters [[CrowningMomentOfFunny 82.97]] and [[AlternateUniverseReedRichardsIsAwesome 90.67]] provide perfect examples.
* CluelessChickMagnet: He can't always tell when it's true love. Lelouch knows he has a [[MrFanservice certain effect on women]], he just has a hard time telling when it’s ''actual'' love. [[RunningGag His Zanpakuto has called him clueless whenever this trope came into effect]]. Take note that he ''does'' dismiss what he recognizes as mere infatuation.
* [[spoiler: CreateYourOwnVillain: Lelouch turned [[DragonAscendant Talbumosuke]] into the [[FromNobodyToNightmare nightmare]] that he is because he killed his family and [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu Aizen]]. It also the main reason why he averts his usual EvilGloating against him after his death.]]
* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: His first ever was [[spoiler: Geassing Mayuri never to harm [[MoralityPet Nemu]] again]]. But what has to be his most epic accomplishment ever would have to be [[spoiler: Geassing [[VillainSue Aizen]] to commit suicide and [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu having it work]]]].
* CryIntoChest: Lelouch becomes the comforting shoulder for a lot of characters.
* DarkIsNotEvil: His Zanpakuto's power.
* [[spoiler: DefiantToTheEnd: Stares down Kokuto with unwavering vigor despite the situation being hopeless. Kokuto even [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] this trope]].
* [[spoiler: DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: Yes he did. In chapter 48, Lelouch [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome does the impossible]] and actually kills [[VillainSue Aizen]]]].
* [[spoiler: DidNotGetTheGirl: AGAIN! At the end of chapter 19. It's obvious he did indeed love Yuna, but she died before he could tell her how he really felt]].
** [[spoiler: Subverted now as Yuna's [[BackFromTheDead been revived]] and they're together. Along with [[TenchiSolution Isane, Susanna and Nemu]]]].
* DracoInLeatherPants: In-universe example as he is this to [[UndyingLoyalty Susanna]]. WordOfGod officially states that he can do no wrong in her eyes. It’s very evident in chapter 99 when [[spoiler: Lelouch shoots Susanna in the stomach with Hado 4: Byakurai and she still insists on following him, not even caring that he just attacked her]].
* [[spoiler: EasilyForgiven]]: Subverted, hard. After [[spoiler: [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu defeating Aizen]] Yamamoto has Lelouch arrested for his actions as Zero and in order to investigate his geass]]. This of course was [[AllAccordingToPlan all a part of Lelouch's plan]] as TheAtoner. What he didn't expect though was [[spoiler:[[DoubleSubversion an unanimous decision for an acquittal]]]].
* EvilGloating: Does this during his battles with Maki Ichinose, [[spoiler: hollow Nnoitora]] and after [[spoiler: He [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu kills Aizen]]]]. Surprisingly [[AvertedTrope averted]] after he defeats [[spoiler: Talbumosuke [[AlasPoorVillain especially after looking in his locket]]. He himself noted that he drove him to become what he is and is one of his biggest regrets, and he personally hopes that in the next life that he and Mia are reunited and happy together.]]
* [[spoiler: FakeDefector: Apparently defects to the side of the Zanpakuto during the Reapers and Heralds arc. He is helping Byakuya.]]
* [[spoiler: FailureKnight: to Yuna]].
* ForegoneConclusion: Chapter 17 reveals that [[spoiler: the [[FishOutOfTemporalWater temporally displaced]] Lelouch will eventually [[TemporalParadox confront his hollow self]] while protecting Kallen]]. Since this has yet to happen, and since [[spoiler: if the events of CodeGeass were to change it would cause Soul Reaper Lelouch to [[CriticalExistenceFailure cease to exist]], we know that Zero Requiem MUST happen. Captain Lelouch, [[YouCannotFightFate knowing]] [[MyGreatestFailure the tragedies that]] [[DespairEventHorizon would take place]], [[AvertedTrope cannot do anything]] [[SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong to prevent it from happening again]]]], the series cannot end and [[spoiler: [[InvincibleHero Captain Lelouch cannot die]] [[JustifiedTrope until this occurs]]]].
* FirstNameBasis: This trope's effect is most profound in regards to his relationship with Yuna. In fact she is the only one who has an obvious or implied interest in him that doesn't use any honorifics when referring to him when compared to [[LikeBrotherAndSister Nemu's]] Lelouch-sama, [[UndyingLoyalty Susanna's]] Lelouch-dono, and Isane's Lelouch-kun. [[UnluckyBustyGirl Rangiku]] will sometimes refer to Lelouch as her captain. [[RescueRomance Momo]] consistently refers to him as Lamperouge-sensei. [[CannotSpitItOut Kukaku]] is simply informal with everyone.
* [[spoiler: FishOutOfTemporalWater]].
* GameBreaker: Chapter 124 shows just how his Geass can be this and why constant justification is needed to keep Lelouch from using it. [[spoiler: Weaponizing DrivenToSuicide really does seem like a GameBreaker.]]
* GenreSavvy: He has his moments. See ThrowTheDogABone below.
** In chapter 89 right as he’s about to [[spoiler: finish Talbumosuke off. The prototype hollow mask he was using shatters]]. Lelouch responds with an internal “That figures”.
** He also realized that [[spoiler:Yamamoto will not survive his confrontation against Aizen, so he GEASSED him to [[DyingMomentOfAwesome "Fight the enemy forces until your last breath. Fight them until it is impossible for you to fight any longer!"]]]]
* GlassCannon
* GoKartingWithBowser: Despite the fact that he and Aizen are engaged in a game of XanatosSpeedChess spanning across several decades they can still play a friendly game of chess.
* GuileHero with [[ScienceHero some experience as a scientist]].
* [[spoiler: HeroicBSOD: Has one when he finds out that he's been [[FishOutOfTemporalWater sent to the past]] and again when Yuna dies]].
** [[spoiler: Has it again when he finds out Susanna is pregnant with his child]].
* HeroProtagonist <--> TheProtagonist: Switches between these roles depending on his current position in the story and his gambits in play. [[CharacterDevelopment He will NEVER go back to being a]] VillainProtagonist, sure he may have a few WhatTheHellHero moments here and there but will NEVER go back to being one.
* HesBack: After fifteen years of shunning everyone and seemingly preparing [[spoiler: to take on Aizen all on his own]], [[spoiler: he jumps back into play]] with a single coded message from Urahara.
* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Not in the way you think though. Lelouch has a technique [[spoiler: in Bankai]] that involves invoking this trope on his opponents.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Subverted. Lelouch's Zanpakuto's release form gives him a cape, but it's not used for combat.
* InTheNameOfTheMoon: See his BadassCreed above.
* KickTheDog: [[spoiler:Taking out Tekubi-kiri Tamashi (Nemu's Zanpakuto). And then it was [[FakingTheDead subverted like crazy]].]]
* LegacyCharacter: When Lelouch restores one of his lost memories from a past life, he discovers that neither his current afterlife nor his previous human life were the first times a revolutionary called Zero existed. Of course, this is also somewhat of a subversion because those previous Zeros were also him, in a way.
* LetsGetDangerous: Whips out [[spoiler: a ''level 90 hado'']] in order to protect Momo and his other students in her class from hollows.
** His first tactical decision during the Battle For Karakura Town arc makes use of this trope. It goes a little something like this: “What? [[spoiler: Ikkaku and Sajin]] were defeated? Better send [[ImplacableMan Ken]][[MadeOfDiamond pa]][[BloodKnight chi ]] [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill in]].”
* LetThemDieHappy: Makes sure of this for [[spoiler: Mari]].
* LikeBrotherAndSister: Him and [[spoiler: Nemu]]. [[BrotherSisterIncest Though that doesn't mean much given his history]].
* LoopholeAbuse: According to Kukaku [[spoiler:and Soifon]] he has a knack for finding them.
* MindRape: His Zanpakuto's Kokoro Hassai ability.
* MyGreatestFailure: Besides [[RhetoricalRequestBlunder all of the things]] [[ILetGwenStacyDie he regrets from]] [[DespairEventHorizon when he was alive]] there's also now [[spoiler: the [[DoomedByCanon unavoidable]] deaths of Mari and [[DiedInYourArmsTonight ESPEC]][[PoorCommunicationKills IALLY]] Yuna]].
* [[spoiler:MyGreatestSecondChance: After successfully reviving Yuna, their relationship is now this.]]
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Lelouch has caused the collapse of the Shihoin family, [[spoiler: allowed the more dangerous Talbumosuke to take over the Espada in place of Aizen]], [[spoiler: allowing Kaien to live]] gave birth to Mia, [[spoiler: killed off Nnoitora early allowing Nel to stay on the Espada]], attacked Lilynette with MindRape prompting Starrk to attack with full force, [[spoiler: His [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu killing of Aizen]] also [[JustForPun killed off]] Gin's reason to HeelFaceTurn]], and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Talbumosuke is using Lelouch's Sorting Algorithm of Hollows for his own purposes]].
** [[spoiler: [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu Sending Aizen to hell]] gave the man natural togabito resistance to Soul Reaper attacks, making it easier for Aizen to [[CurbStompBattle rapestomp]] Soul Society]].
* NotSoDifferent: From Ichigo.
* OutGambitted: Lelouch is starting to feel this way towards [[spoiler: Talbumosuke]]. It helps his enemy in that Lelouch is unaware of how he thinks and originally [[FromNobodyToNightmare was not much of a threat]].
** You would be forgiven for thinking Lelouch had [[TookALevelInDumbass taken a level in dumbass]] during the Battle of Karakura Arc. It's not his fault, he has no knowledge of Talbumosuke's potential. [[spoiler: How was he supposed to know Talbumosuke could wipe out the Visoreds in a single move?]]
*** It's like we always say, once things start looking good for Lelouch it starts blowing up in his face
* PetTheDog: Gives Renji an uplifting speech so that he understands that he’s not useless or weak despite the rough time he’s been going through lately.
* PlayingHardToGet: Towards Rangiku, not that it's intentional all the time. It's ultimately subverted in chapter 61 though.
* ProperlyParanoid: with regards to Aizen
* [[spoiler: RelationshipUpgrade: Lelouch has had sex with Nemu, Susanna and Rangiku. Judging by the fact that we haven't reached Code Geass canon yet, it's not over for Lelouch in relationships yet. The middle got pregnant with his kid, but [[ConvenientMiscarriage lost it]]. The former was his girlfriend until Lelouch [[BreakHerHeartToSaveHer brutally broke up with her]], but now they're back together.]]
** [[spoiler: After successfully bringing back Yuna Homura, he plans to start a Noble House and [[MarryThemAll marries Nemu, Susanna, Isane, and Yuna]].]]
*** [[spoiler: And the it gets subverted with the deconstruction of the clan]]
* [[spoiler: ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight: What Lelouch's motivation in planning to bring down Central Forty-Six after overthrowing Hitsugaya's authority as Captain on account of MISDEMEANORS.]]
* [[spoiler: ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem: What Lelouch is doing with the House of Lamperouge as its founder]].
** [[spoiler: Subverted. The clan's been deconstructed]]
* SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong: Brutally Averted. [[spoiler: After learning that he was sent to Soul Society in a [[TemporalParadox Temporal Paradox]], Lelouch thought that maybe he can change the major tragic events of what went wrong in his life since technically the tragic events that happened in his past life didn't happened yet, but he then later learns that changing the tragic events yet to come in Code Geass canon will make his Soul Reaper self to cease to exist and so, he begrudgingly decides to not interfere with the events that will follow in order to keep his existance, much to his displeasure of hearing.]]
* [[spoiler: SexForSolace: Lelouch has had the opportunity of being on both sides of this trope. In chapter 49 Susanna lays down with him to heal his soul and in chapter 61 he is helping Rangiku heal hers]].
* ShipperOnDeck: For Byakuya/Hisana, Ichigo/Orihime[[spoiler:, and despite sleeping with her Gin/Rangiku]].
* ShmuckBait: Lelouch has a safe in his office that's easy to open and another that opening it in a conventional manner triggers an alarm.
* ShutUpHannibal: Does this to Talbumosuke after the man begins to get under his skin.
* SquishyWizard
* StartOfDarkness: Lelouch initially starts on TheAtoner path. It is [[spoiler: Mari's death]] that makes Lelouch slink back into [[ManipulativeBastard old]] [[MagnificentBastard habits]].
* [[spoiler: StealthMentor: As of the Reapers and Heralds arc.]]
* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: After defeating Maki Ichinose, Lelouch [[spoiler: picks up his skull]] and recites a line from Hamlet. Talbumosuke recites this same line after [[spoiler: [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu defeating Baraggan]]]].
* [[TechnicolorFire Technicolor]] {{Fireballs}}: A power of his Shikai.
* TemptingFate: Lelouch closes chapter 30 by musing to his zanpakuto about how things are definitely looking up for him. One would think he'd know his luck doesn't work that way by now.
** As one reviewer put it: Things are looking up for Lelouch. Something very bad is about to happen.
** [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Eien Tamashi in chapter 33.
*** And [[spoiler:essentially confirmed by the events of chapter 34]].
** In chapter 53 he says that he hopes to avoid attracting attention from the female student body. He gets about two steps before getting swarmed.
* TheAtoner: Lelouch initially started out wanting to follow the path of atonement but decides to set it aside after [[spoiler: Mari's death]] in favor of doing whatever it takes to bring down Aizen and currently [[spoiler: Talbumosuke]]. Although recently, there are hints that he may return to the path of atonement once when we return to the Code Geass timeline and one thing is for sure, it will take a lot for him to make up for what he has done for all of the innocent people who suffered under his actions, especially for Euphie and Shirley.
* [[spoiler:TheClan: Has plans to start a Noble House to help cope with his [[MarryThemAll extensive love life]].]]
** [[spoiler: [[YankTheDogsChain Unfortunately, due to what Lelouch has risked during his time as a Fake Defector, it sadly doesn't come to fruition.]]]]
* TheOnlyOneITrust: He is this to Byakuya in regards to [[spoiler: needing a partner in regards to taking down Muramasa]]. [[HoYay make of that what you will]]
* ThrowTheDogABone: For one time fate finally decides to cut Lelouch a break after tormenting him for so long. [[spoiler: When restoring Hana to be Yuna practically nothing goes wrong]]. Lelouch, of course, [[LampshadeHanging lampshades this]]
* TookALevelInBadass: Besides the fact that Lelouch is a Shinigami [[spoiler:Captain, his Geass has evolved into Mastery as a result of the Reapers and Heralds arc.]]
* [[spoiler: TreacherousAdvisor: To Muramasa]]
* {{Troll}}: Lelouch lets Aizen obtain the Hogyoku, beat him in a straight up fight and make his retreat. And then [[spoiler: Lelouch grabs [[AscendedExtra Yoruichi's flying device]] flies up to Aizen and [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome '''GEASSES HIM TO KILL HIMSELF''']]]].
* WalkingShirtlessScene: More like [[spoiler: hanging by his wrists]] almost buck naked scene. Chapter 110 has him doing this in hell.
* WeakButSkilled: Lelouch is NOT someone who can fight in the front-lines but is more than capable to defending himself.
* [[spoiler: WeCanRuleTogether: Gives this option to Ichigo when he reveals to be working for Muramasa. He is a FakeDefector so he WANTS Ichigo to refuse.]]
* WeHaveReserves: Does this with the Visoreds. [[spoiler: [[TheWorfEffect Too bad they're all taken down before they can do anything]]]].
* WhatTheHellHero: He gets a big one in chapter 30 for [[spoiler: burning and slaughtering the Atrumier family. [[AssholeVictim Not that they didn't deserve it]], well not ALL of the members.]]
** Flat out stated word for word, minus the hero portion, by Ichigo to him in chapter 98 when he [[spoiler: slaps Susanna and reveals himself to be on Muramasa’s side]].
*** And again in chapter 104 from Ichigo about even after he reveals his true intentions
* XanatosRoulette: His entire plan during the Reapers and Heralds arc. It’s just...way too damn complicated to explain in words.
* [[spoiler: YankTheDogsChain: Several times. With [[DiedInYourArmsTonight Yuna]] though she [[BackFromTheDead came back]], [[ConvenientMiscarriage Susanna]] and now his TenchiSolution has been deconstructed]]
* YouAreNotAlone: Lelouch is slowly starting to grasp ar this concept.
* YourHeadAsplode: If Lelouch uses [[MindRape Kokoro Hassai]] on a particularly weak enemy or an enemy with no mental resistance this is the result instead.
!! Ichigo Kurosaki
The HeroProtagonist of Bleach now a SupportingProtagonist in the fic. Ichigo doesn't hit the series for a few arcs, but he's still relatively the same orange haired JerkWithAHeartOfGold fans remember
* BadassNormal: While [[spoiler: rescuing Orihime from [[AttemptedRape being raped]] by a group of thugs]].
* BringMyBrownPants: In chapter 110, Ichigo and Kasumi are blocked off by this monster with three tentacles for a body. Each tentacle is about two to three times the size of Ichigo and Kasumi. It turns out that those are just the eyelashes. Ichigo is scared out of his mind when he sees [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever how big the creature actually is]].
* BroughtDownToBadass: Ichigo’s Zanpakuto is currently [[spoiler: completely sealed up [[SealedEvilInACan for his own safety]]]]. Consider [[KnightTemplarBigBrother who we're]] [[TheDeterminator talking about]], it’s this trope rather than [[BroughtDownToNormal the other one]]
* BullyingADragon: Subverted. Ichigo tells Allon to [[SmiteMeOMightySmiter attack him with his strongest punch]]. Allon obliges, but Ichigo blocks it with minimal effort.
* [[spoiler: DeadAllAlong: Ever since regaining his powers after Hisana shatters his Soul Chain and Urahara puts him through TrainingFromHell he’s been this according to Kendra]].
** [[spoiler: Even without her saying it this should really come across as FridgeBrilliance to a degree]]
* DidNotDoTheResearch: In-universe. He too mistook [[RunningGag Ikumi’s business for an eel shop]] only to be corrected by Tatsuki.
* [[spoiler: EasilyForgiven: Sort of. He doesn’t get reprimanded for what his hollow did due to the clause that he had no control over himself at all, though the SS still could punish him, but with Ginjo soon coming into the picture they’ll know whether or not he’s worth keeping around]].
* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: Despite all the precautions and preparations [[spoiler:to prevent his inner demon from emerging, it would emerge in the Demon Within arc.]]
* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: Does this for [[spoiler: Kenpachi]] due to [[spoiler: his]] HeroicBSOD.
* [[spoiler: HeroicBSOD: Suffers a major one when he becomes aware of the damage done to his surroundings, beneath his notice, by Tsukishima and Keigo. He actually starts crying. Yoruichi comforts him]].
* HeroicWillpower: Weaponized during [[spoiler: the climax for Yamamoto's battle with [[FanNickname Shirosaki]]]].
* IAmNotMyFather: States the trope verbatum at one point.
* ImplacableMan: Sort of. With his TrainingFromHell, courtesy of Lelouch, Ichigo can now manually regenerate his [[FanNickname Pimp coat]], which we all know is a ManaMeter, which means Ichigo can constantly fight with full reiatsu if he focuses. Wounds will still take their full course though.
* LeaveHimToMe: Says this to Lelouch with regards to fighting Allon that he doesn’t want any help.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Ichigo has the nickname “Soul Reaper” amongst the gang system throughout Karakura Town.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: While he and his friends managed to eliminate some of the Espada. This is [[AllAccordingToPlan exactly what]] [[spoiler: Talbumosuke]] [[XanatosGambit wanted]]. He had more to gain this way.
* NotSoDifferent: From Cornelia. Both are [[KnightTemplarBigBrother Knight Templar Siblings]] and constructed their paths because they want to protect those they care about.
** This also applies in part to Lelouch as well to a lesser degree. And of course there are the [[HeyItsThatVoice vocal]] [[JohnnyYongBosch similarities]].
* OutOfTheInferno: Ichigo pulls this twice in the Different Bonds arc.
* [[spoiler: RelationshipUpgrade: He and Orihime are dating as of chapter 69]].
** [[spoiler: In chapter 74 they have sex]].
* ReasonYouSuckSpeech: Delivers an oh so satisfying one to Takeno during his VillainousBreakdown
* SandInMyEyes: What he says more or less upon Lelouch’s reunion with [[spoiler: [[BackFromTheDead Mari]]]]
* [[spoiler: SplitPersonalityTakeover: Hollow Ichigo possesses Ichigo’s body for the last chapter of the Demon Within arc]]
* [[spoiler: StoryBreakerPower: His Resurreccion as shown to us by his inner hollow. Ichigo, nobly, wants nothing to do with it because it would devoid what makes him human]].
* SupportingProtagonist: To Lelouch.
* [[spoiler: TakenForGranite: He’s turned to stone by Lelouch due to his [[TooPowerfulToLive massive power]]]]
* TellMeAboutMyFather: Says this to Lelouch when he discovers Isshin's true nature much earlier than in canon.
* TemptingFate: Ichigo tells Rukia during the Demon Within arc that he’ll come back safe and sound. [[CaptainObvious this is not]] [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption what happened]].
* TookALevelInBadass: Compare [[LeeroyJenkins canon]] [[UnskilledButStrong Ichigo]] with [[TranquilFury the]] [[CombatPragmatist current]] [[LightningBruiser version]].
* [[spoiler: TooPowerfulToLive: Subverted. He is sealed away by Lelouch, but he comes back to normal as good ol’ normal Ichigo again. As normal as a teenage boy with the ability to move at supersonic speeds and carry a bigass sword and fire [[SwordBeam sword beams]] can be]].
* ThanksForTheMammary: Ichigo accidentaly grabs Kukaku's breast when trying to get her phone, which has [[ItMakesSenseInContext a picture of him and Isane cuddling]]. Kukaku, naturally, [[UnstoppableRage flips out]].
* UnskilledButStrong: [[spoiler:Though training with Lelouch fixed the Unskilled part.]]
** On the other hand [[spoiler: This fits his half-hollow berserk form to a T. It’s lampshaded by Unohana when she realizes how predictable and tiring his NoIAmBehindYou tactic becomes]].
* WalkingShirtlessScene: Has one while acting as [[TengenToppaGurrenLagann Kamina]] for a cosplay project.
* [[spoiler: WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity: His theorized Resurreccion, but only while he takes its form]]
!! Cornelia li Britannia
According to the events of Chapter 58, Cornelia will have an entire arc centered around her, putting her as another main supporting protagonist late in the fic. Of course [[WordOfGod this isn't supposed to occur for quite a while]]
* {{Foreshadowing}}: [[spoiler: That moment in chapter 58 where it's revealed that when Cornelia was 10 years old, she can actually see spirits? [[SarcasmMode Oh yeah, it won't be mentioned again and it won't be important to her character development, that's for sure]]]].
* GoshDarnItToHeck: Justified in the usage of this trope in chapter 58 because she's [[ChildrenAreInnocent only 10 years old]].
* [[spoiler: ISeeDeadPeople: Cornelia has spiritual power enough to see wholes, hollows and Soul Reapers]].
* NotSoDifferent: Her and Ichigo. Both are [[KnightTemplarBigBrother Knight Templar Siblings]] and constructed their paths so that they could protect those close to them.
* [[spoiler:TookALevelInJerkass: Apparently so seeing how she [[UsedToBeASweetKid was such a sweet girl at age 10]] even Lelouch is surprised when he found out in Chapter 84]].
