Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

  • Moral Event Horizon: Georca, when he "activated" Tina and started a revolt culminating with a siege in the royal palace.
  • Needs More Love: Despite continued praise from critics, the show has never really developed much of a fanbase and sales of its DVD release were sluggish at best. Part of the problem may be the art style, or the unfortunate non-descriptive title.
    • It also had the bad luck to premiere the same week as the then-highly anticipated Gundam Seed Destiny, which pretty much monopolized anime fan attention that week.
  • Tear Jerker: Lots of them. Some that really stand out are when Hiisuma dies, Duma's Dark and Troubled Past and pretty much the second part of the Greecia flashback arc.
  • What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?: The title and art style, plus the focus on young protagonists (even for anime) might convince some that this is a kids' show. Luckily, the series opens with some rather dark imagery which should help get the message across that this series isn't for the little ones.
  • The Woobie: Tina after The Reveal and Sess when Tina is saved by Soran when she goes into a Heroic BSOD while he, despite his best efforts, can't bring her to normality.
