History FanFic / TwentyYearsLaterReimusSuccessor

* CloningBlues: [[spoiler:A chibi clone of Dawitsu suffers the unenviable fate of being mercilessly shot down by 'the creature'. Another one commits suicide in order to keep up some kind of masquerade to Patricia, implying it only has two hours left to live anyway. Yet ''another'' one decides to accept the futility of its [[WeAreAsMayflies short life]] and decides to drown its sorrows in its last hour to live.]]

* ADateWithRosiePalms: ''Very'' subtly implied with Dawitsu. After [[spoiler:fixing up the Gizoid]], he offers [[spoiler:it]] some 'petroleum jelly', saying he's got plenty of it and that it makes good lubricant. I wonder why that is, Dawitsu...

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Performing PK Thunder, Dawitsu accidentally strikes himself [[WhatAnIdiot four times in a row]], [[AshFace turning himself charred black]].

* WhatAnIdiot: In-universe. [[spoiler:Upon Dawitsu revealing that the Gizoid is no longer following his commands and that ''he programmed it'' to be able to change its own master to the most powerful being it came across, Reimu herself considers Dawitsu's entire plan easily hijacked.]]

* WildCard: Dawitsu

*** [[spoiler:'Hunger Sign: Gulp's Unfortunate Ally' is one to ''[[VideoGame/SpyroTheDragon Spyro 2]]'', with Dawitsu acting as ExtremeOmnivore Gulp.]]

* TheCameo: Hebiko and Tokage, even moreso than [[DemotedToExtra Yutaka]]. Also, Suika, Sanae, Sakuya, Rinnosuke, and [[GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere Mamizou]] get little more than a last-minute cameo in the end-of-story party.

* BrotherChuck: [[spoiler:Mima is the fourth boss, and she isn't exactly happy about her absence, even if she does like playing cards.]]

* MacrossMissileMassacre: [[spoiler:Copycat Sign: [[VideoGame/{{Earthbound}} Multi Bottle Rocket]] is used by Okuu Junior.]]

** Copycat Sign: PK Flash is one to ''VideoGame/{{Earthbound}}''[=/=]''VideoGame/Mother3''.

* AbsoluteCleavage: Yuugi Hoshiguma wears a 'low-cut kimono [that] seemed to do a good enough job reminding the world that, yes, this person was a female'. [[LemonyNarrator To English speakers]], that means she's showing off a lot of cleavage.

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: When Parsee Mizuhashi is running away from an area declaring her ''lack'' of envy for the place, you kinda know it's pretty bad there. Also, Patricia uses this as evidence that she's dreaming as Yukari is ''much'' more [[TastesLikeDiabetes saccharine]] than usual in her dreams. It's also evidence that Dawitsu drugged Reimu- she is ''far nicer'' than her [[{{Tsundere}} usual self]].

* TastesLikeDiabetes: In-universe- Patricia finds her dream's rendition of Yukari far too saccharine to be real.

* SnarkToSnarkCombat: UpToEleven. Practically every other verbal exchange is a form of this.

* MagnumOpus: In-universe example; [[spoiler:Dawitsu's replica of the Gizoid, a mimicking robot, is his Magnum Opus of robotics.]]

* PoliticalCorrectnessGoneMad: Apparently, the proper term isn't 'The Underground', it's 'Former Hell'. That's the politically correct term.

'''Dawitsu;''' "...well, [[FoeYay I'm a handsome man, I can understand you wanting to...]]"

* FoeYay: [[InvokedTrope Invoked]] in-universe by Yukari, who seems to have embraced the popular opinion led by Tokage and her followers that she and Dawitsu are romantically involved by being ''incredibly'' flirty with Dawitsu, doing things like 'affectionately' pulling on his cheek, if only to make Dawitsu feel uncomfortable.

* ASpotOfTea: Dawitsu ''still'' remembers Reimu's tea preference, and makes her tea when she visits him.

* SpectacularSpinning: [[spoiler:Dawitsu and Marisa's spell-card, 'Combination Sign: Komodo Joe's Witchy Replacement', has Dawitsu spinning Marisa around while he throws scimitars. Bonus points for that it [[DeconstructedTrope deconstructs the trope]] by [[RealityEnsues having reality ensue]] and making Marisa stop to vomit due to the dizziness.]]

** Copycat Sign: PK Flash is one to [[VideoGame/{{Earthbound}} Earthbound]]/[[VideoGame/{{Mother3}} Mother 3]].
** Robotics: Sentry, going up and Disguise: Spy's Cigarette Case are shout outs to [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 Team Fortress 2]].

** [[spoiler:The Gizoid itself is one to VideoGame/SonicBattle. It also uses [[VideoGame/SonicBattle Chaos Magic]] and summons [[VideoGame/{{Halo}} Forerunner Sentinels]] to its aid, including a set of [[AscendedGlitch needler sentinels]].]]
** In the final battle, there's a couple of shout outs: [[spoiler:the first to [[VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes2DesperateStruggle No More Heroes 2]] with an attack based on Doctor Letz Shake, and another to [[VideoGame/SonicAdventure E-101 beta mark two]].]]

** Also, Chapter nine has Ran and Chen playing MichaelJacksonsMoonwalker at the Dawitsu Mansion.
** Dawitsu references the film version of Frankenstein by yelling, [[spoiler:'IT'S... INTACT!' as he brings the highly damaged Gizoid back to his house for repairs.]]

*** Firstly, [[spoiler:to VideoGame/BanjoKazooie with 'Co-operation Sign: Cute Witch and Ugly Witch', Dawitsu acting as the Ugly Witch, Gruntilda.]]
*** Then [[spoiler:'Magic and Force Sign: The Milky Way and a Galaxy far, far away' is an obvious ShoutOut to Franchise/StarWars.]]
*** [[spoiler:'Hunger Sign: Gulp's Unfortunate Ally' is one to [[VideoGame/SpyroTheDragon Spyro 2]], with Dawitsu acting as ExtremeOmnivore Gulp.]]
*** [[spoiler:'Combination Sign: Komodo Joe's Witchy Replacement' references the Komodo Brothers' strategy in ''[[Videogame/CrashBandicoot2CortexStrikesBack Crash Bandicoot 2]]'', and towards the end, Dawitsu acts in a manner similar to [[VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006 Mephiles the Dark]].]]

Tropes which appear in ''Twenty Years Later: Reimu's Successor'', the first story in the sister series to the ''Fanfic/TouhouDoujinDawitsusFolly'' fanfic series.

* AdventureRebuff: Jean attempts this a couple of times with Patricia, and seems to be the only one that factors in the possibility of [[BoringInvincibleHero Patricia's]] ''loss''. [[spoiler:He turns out to be correct for her 'extra boss'.]]

* BoringInvincibleHero: Out and out stated word for word by Marisa about Patricia. She claims Patricia has inherited such traits from Reimu, who also was the sort to never lose in canon. Patricia even becomes wise to it herself, making her become a little arrogant. [[spoiler:Ultimately, the book [[SubvertedTrope subverts this]] as her careless attitude almost leads to her [[DeathByGenreSavviness getting accidentally killed by Marisa in their 'extra boss' fight.]]]]

* DeathByGenreSavviness: [[spoiler:Not quite death, see BoringInvincibleHero.]]

* GenreBlind: Jean is constantly worried about Patricia's safety, not quite as aware as the others that she's the BoringInvincibleHero. [[spoiler:It's a good thing too, as he ends up prepared enough to catch her when she falls after ''actually losing'' to Marisa.]]

* EverythingIsBetterWithSpinning: [[spoiler:Dawitsu and Marisa's spell-card, 'Combination Sign: Komodo Joe's Witchy Replacement', has Dawitsu spinning Marisa around while he throws scimitars. Bonus points for that it [[DeconstructedTrope deconstructs the trope]] by [[RealityEnsues having reality ensue]] and making Marisa stop to vomit due to the dizziness.]]

* {{Kuudere}}: Satori Komeiji is this, loving to her pets despite her cold exterior.

* CaptainObvious: Yuugi [[InvokedTrope makes herself]] CaptainObvious to explain the clearly visible destruction of the Ancient City. And, [[TheSpeechless according to Yukari]], her Oni Shikigami is one as well.

* TheHedonist: Patricia's Hedonism in her dreamscape, [[CaptainObvious naturally]].

* AffectionateNickname: 'Kiddo' seems to be Reimu's nickname for Patricia. [[FreudianSlip When she doesn't refer to her as her]] [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming daughter or little girl]]. [[spoiler:Also, 'the creature' gets renamed 'Okuu Junior' by Utsuho.]]

* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: [[spoiler:The Gizoid is known as 'the creature' and 'the robot' mainly by the narration, only referred to as 'that thing' or 'the robot' by most characters, and as 'Gizoid' by its creator, Dawitsu. Only Utsuho bothers to give it a personal name (Okuu Junior), and [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming it is this that makes it consider her a friend]].]]

* InVinoVeritas: Less alcohol and more drugs, but [[{{Tsundere}} Reimu]] is a lot sweeter to everyone ''and'' [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming unashamedly calls Patricia her daughter]] when doped up on Amineptine. She even calls herself Patricia's 'Mummy'.

* AlmightyIdiot: Utsuho Reiuji is like this in the same way [[DragonBall Fat Buu]] is- powerful enough [[spoiler:to force 'the creature' to become her servant,]] yet ditzy enough to be fully confused by almost everything [[spoiler:'the creature']] says.

* BoringInvincibleHero: Out and out stated word for word by [[GenreSavvy Marisa]] about Patricia. She claims Patricia has inherited such traits from Reimu, who also was the sort to never lose in canon. Patricia even becomes wise to it herself, making her become a little arrogant. [[spoiler:Ultimately, the book [[SubvertedTrope subverts this]] as her careless attitude almost leads to her [[DeathByGenreSavviness getting accidentally killed by Marisa in their 'extra boss' fight.]]]]

* GenreSavvy: So far, practically ''everyone'' Patricia ends up fighting. Everyone from Reimu to Yuugi Hoshiguma seem very much aware of [[{{Canon}} how incidents are solved]].

* GoodParents: Jean acts as a CoolUncle and father figure to Patricia, and is certainly the most concerned for her welfare... but then again, this may be due to him being less GenreSavvy than either Marisa or Reimu.

* MrExposition: [[TVTropesWillRuinYourVocabulary Wrongly]] [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] as '[[ExpositionFairy Exposition Fairies]]' by Chapter Seven's title, both Dawitsu and his Chibi Clones take up this role at some point.

** There is mention in chapter nine of a time Dawitsu and Jean were involved with '[[VillagePeople an incident involving a gay cowboy and a sexy builder]]'.

* {{Lolicon}}: Dawitsu gets accused of this by [[MamaBear Reimu]], but has a hard time convincing her of his innocence [[ThreeWaySex despite he and his wife both mentioning sex with]] ''[[ThreeWaySex each other]]''.

* GhostLights: Evil Spirits are described as 'Will-o-wisps' by the narrator.
