* SupportingProtagonist: Downplayed. Although he still has his own arc in Season One, the crux of the plot is Barnaby seeking justice for his deceased parents and moving past his BrokenAce tendencies. Kotetsu is really there to help Barnaby achieve those goals and help him grow.
Added DiffLines:
* {{Expy}}: Barnaby puts up a facade of being a charming playboy wearing a suit of armor who is actually a BrokenAce seeking justice for his deceased parents and is a DefrostingIceKing. Basically he has Batman's backstory, Iron Man's suit of armor, and a mix between their personalities.

* SecretIdentity: Notably {{Averted}}. As opposed to other heroes who operate under a heroic pseudonym and wear helmets or masks to coneal their civilian identities, Barnaby operates under his full name and has no problem showing his face to the general public while on the job.

* SilentTreatment: In the first episode of season 2, Barnaby gives Kotesu this after the latter drank his energy drink, and Kotetsu returns the favor. Of course, that doesn't stop the two from not only remaining professional while taking down a villain but also coming up with a plan without even saying a word.
