7 | !!Tropes: |
8 | * BerserkButton: Calling [=TBelle=] a FanGirl |
9 | * CameBackWrong: [=TBelle=] left to do research on CreepyPasta. When she came back...things got weird. |
10 | * TheCastShowOff: Several times, there have been musical credits where Haley shows off her singing voice. & once co-producer Jess showed off her ukelele skills. |
11 | * DrivenToMadness: ComicBook/{{Watchmen}} & ''Literature/CrimeAndPunishment'' seem to have this effect on [=TBelle=] |
12 | * TheFairFolk: [=TBelle=] tends to like stories involving them, as seen in her Top 11 Anime & her Film/{{Labyrinth}} thesis. |
13 | * FanGirl: [=TBelle=], albeit reluctantly. Not to mention her whole video explaining the concept. |
14 | * GuiltyPleasure: Film/TheLeagueOfExtraordinaryGentlemen for [=TBelle=] |
15 | * ImNotAfraidOfYou: How she dealt with that pesky victim complex, in the same style as [[Film/{{Labyrinth}} the movie]] she was talking about. |
16 | * ImprobableWeapon: The umbrella |
17 | * LipstickAndLoadMontage: Primping up to get ready for a review is serious business. |
18 | * OccidentalOtaku: [=TBelle's=] introduction to anime. It was an awkward experience. |
19 | * OldShame: Her high school web show. |
20 | * SharedUniverse: Thanks to cameos, she's part of the Reviewaverse. |
21 | * SouthernBelle: And proud of it. |
22 | * [[TalkingToThemself Talking To Herself]]: Arguing with her 'high school victim complex' in the Film/{{Labyrinth}} thesis. |
23 | * WorldOfWeirdness: The Reviewaverse. She confronted [[WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfIchabodAndMrToad Ichabod Crane]], [[WesternAnimation/Frozen2013 Hans]], and [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast Gaston]]. This universe is weird enough for fictional characters to exist. |
