!!!The NOT! Girls
[[folder:Tropes applying to them]]
Tsugumi Harudori, Meme Tatane, and Anya Hepburn are a trio of 14-year-old girls. The latter two are Meister candidates for Tsugumi the Demon Halberd. Eventually, three develop a fighting style that revolves around the two Meisters wielding one Weapon so that they couldn’t be broken up. Tsugumi Harudori is an average girl form Japan who grows more confident. Meme Tatane is a space case with a tendency to forget even the most memorable of details, but was actually once Shaula Gorgon’s best Traitor. Anya Hepburn is high-class and somewhat snobby lady, because she is Princess Anastasia Ygnling of the royal House Ygnling.
-----
* AlmightyJanitor: To the surprise of many, these three 14-year-old girls from the NOT curriculum held their own against Shaula of the Gorgons.
* ArchEnemy: [[SparedByTheAdaptation Because Shaula lives after her final attack]], these three make a pact to put an end to her once and for all, cementing them as this to Shaula.
* ArmorPiercingAttack: Triple Soul Resonance: Spring Bird Attack is so powerful that it can leave a giant, gaping hole in a building from front to back, almost completely disintegrating a large scorpion, and leave Shaula Gorgon on the brink of death, all while keeping Meme and Anya completely safe until the attack runs its course.
* ActionGirl: Despite being NOT students, Meme and Anya grow into this role.
* LimitBreak: Triple Soul Resonance: Spring Bird Attack.
* LovelyAngels: Meme and Anya become this trope by the time they fight Shaula. The two use Tsugumi in virtually perfect synchronization, combining Anya’s grace with Meme’s strength. They know when and where to let the other take the lead and whose skills are better in a situation.

* LadyOfWar: Befitting a princess, Anya attacks with nothing but precision, poise, and grace.
* PreAsskickingOneLiner: Gives one in Chapter 12.

-->'''Damon''': Yeah! We're going to make the best dog-catching team ever! We're going to do our best, and we're going to accomplish this mission! Cuz we're just that awesome! '''To Dead Air Road'''! \\
'''Damon''': (''[[MilkingTheGiantCow with grand sweeping motions of his hands]]'') 'Beware, foolish evildoers! Even the lower echelons of the DWMA can smite thee!'
* NiceGuy: Goes with being an optimist. Damon cares a great deal for the people around him, and just wants to get along with everybody. He also tends to keep his brother and sister in line when they are acting too out-of-line so that nothing out-of-hand is said or done.
* {{Squee}}: His reaction to the Tsugumi, Anya, and Meme’s announcement of Shaula’s defeat at their hands is one akin to a mentor proud of their student’s progression, albeit to an energized degree.
* WideEyedIdealist

!!!The NOT! Girls
[[folder:Tropes applying to them]]
Tsugumi Harudori, Meme Tatane, and Anya Hepburn are a trio of 14-year-old girls. The latter two are Meister candidates for Tsugumi the Demon Halberd. Eventually, three develop a fighting style that revolves around the two Meisters wielding one Weapon so that they couldn’t be broken up. Tsugumi Harudori is an average girl form Japan who grows more confident. Meme Tatane is a space case with a tendency to forget even the most memorable of details, but was actually once Shaula Gorgon’s best Traitor. Anya Hepburn is high-class and somewhat snobby lady, because she is Princess Anastasia Ygnling of the royal House Ygnling.

* AlmightyJanitor: To the surprise of many, these three 14-year-old girls from the NOT curriculum held their own against Shaula of the Gorgons.
* ArchEnemy: [[SparedByTheAdaptation Because Shaula lives after her final attack]], these three make a pact to put an end to her once and for all, cementing them as this to Shaula.
* ArmorPiercingAttack: Triple Soul Resonance: Spring Bird Attack is so powerful that it can leave a giant, gaping hole in a building from front to back, almost completely disintegrating a large scorpion, and leave Shaula Gorgon on the brink of death, all while keeping Meme and Anya completely safe until the attack runs its course.
* ActionGirl: Despite being NOT students, Meme and Anya grow into this role.
* LimitBreak: Triple Soul Resonance: Spring Bird Attack.
* LovelyAngels: Meme and Anya become this trope by the time they fight Shaula. The two use Tsugumi in virtually perfect synchronization, combining Anya’s grace with Meme’s strength. They know when and where to let the other take the lead and whose skills are better in a situation.

* WideEyedIdealist: Revealed in a response to [[TheCynic Autumn]].
-->'''Autumn''': This isn't a fairytale. Not all endings are happy. \\
'''Tsugumi''': Doesn't mean we can't make one.\\

[[folder: Anya Hepburn]]
* DeadpanSnarker: Anya is a downplayed example. While she has the sharpest tongue of the three girls, she nonetheless remains relatively nice to those who treat her similarly.
* LadyOfWar: Befitting a princess, Anya attacks with nothing but precision, poise, and grace.
* PreAsskickingOneLiner: Gives one in Chapter 12.
-->'''Poacher''': Oh wow. What good is a weapon without a cutting edge?\\
'''Anya''': Plenty. (''strikes him right across the mouth'')

[[folder:Meme Tatane]]
* BoobsOfSteel: The bustiest of her girls as well as the physically strongest.
* SuperStrength: Meme is physically strong enough to stunt a large, summoned scorpion with her blows. The act leaves Anya in awe, which Meme is embarrassed about.
