His uncle, Ivan Podubbny, does so, as well. Large Ham: Yosuke's dorm mate, Tatsuo, only speaks in all-caps and in grandiose style ( much to Kaori's frustration).Ironic Echo: Nikki will tell Valerie what Tristan earlier told Ken, word-for-word, when Valerie wakes Tristan up late into her route.Unimportant characters are represented as silhouettes. Interface Spoiler: One can tell Mei is going to matter to the plot when she shows up as she has a full character design.
Incest Subtext: Played for Laughs by the devs, merely playing with many fan's desire for a Nikki route.Although Valerie does trick him into saying it earlier in French without telling him what it means. The "I Love You" Stigma: While Tristan can break out the L word on any romance he never does so until the final date in the game's story by which point he very sure of his ground.If You Ever Do Anything to Hurt Her.: Pretty much describes the first meeting with Ken.Hot Springs Episode: Complete with some peeping action, thanks to Shou of course.Hair of Gold, Heart of Gold: Every blonde in the plot is a nice person, unless the player decides to make the protagonist behave poorly.All of the opponents Tristan's team faces are class acts and gracious in defeat and victory. Friendly Rivalry: Seems to be the ACE Academy way.Form-Fitting Wardrobe: GEAR pilot suits are.snug.Kaori insists the resulting curves are fuel storage.

As Himself: While she also plays Mei, Amanda Lee makes a cameo as herself near the end of the game.Early on the characters discuss changing the name but never seem to get round to it and eventually just run with the code.
