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.

Hi guys. Something that bothered me about the series was the character of Noike. She was basically a less human looking version of Kiyone. Why couldn't they have just wrote in Kiyone? They can certainly have two Kiyones in one series, they already have two Ryokos.

  • Kajishima doesn't own the rights to the character. She was originally written for Naoko Hasegawa's tie-in novels. Not to mention her character really doesn't fit with the OAV version of Mihoshi.
    • If you look at the art books that Kajishima-sensei released, you will realize that Noike actually existed long before Kiyone was created
  • A minor nitpick that has been bothering this troper for a very long time. (since the days of toonami). Everyone in Ayeka's family, from Yosho, to her father, to her mother, to Yosho's mother, to her little sister...why is it Ayeka has a british accent but no one else does?!
  • Is Ayeka's skin some kind of mood ring? So far, her skin tones have included gray for battle, pink for drunk, orange for angry, and normal. This trait doesn't seem to be shared by anyone, even Sasami, who's consistently pale.
    • The grey thing is a type of defense shield, and the rest are more or less standard anime emotes.
  • In the OVA, Ryoko mentions watching Tenchi (via a form of astral projection) as a kid while still imprisoned in the cave, with no signs of hostility towards him. When they meet face to face for the first time at Tenchi's school, however, the first thing Ryoko does is vent out her frustration for being locked away for seven centuries by trying to kick Tenchi's ass. Did Ryoko fail to recognize who Tenchi was, or was this some sort of test to see if he was worth her time?
    • She was pretty much just playing around, according to Word of God.
