* RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap: Sai gets this when he not only calls Cervantes out on his StupidEvil tendencies but manages to turn Cervantes's attempt to kill him around and successfully get Cervantes's dragon to admit on live tv that yes the ultra genocidal racism is really only promoted as part of a money making racket and that the leaders don't even believe their own garbage.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: Vanai Zannuchi bares a lot of similarities to Flay. Both are RichBitches both of them are queen bees in high school, both of them are rather racist and elitist and both of them end up getting attached to one of the cast (Vanai for Sai while Flay for Kira.) Both also mellow out considerably (though Vanai doesn't overcome her bigotry completely vs Flay, who overcomes her racism entirely). Kira and Sai even notice that they look alike.

** Asmodeus Sark is also revealed to be a.) The guy who killed George Glenn and b.) Related to the guy.



* TheLostLenore: Flay Allster is a complicated case for Kira. He's still badly affected by her death and is implied to still care for her, but he also knows full well that she was using him and trying to get him killed early on (in this story Kira DID interact with Flay's ghost and she told him everything.)

* EnergyWeapon: FRALA, also known as Focused Repeatedly Amplified Light Array. Probably one of the few things that can punch through Positron shields.

* EngineeredPublicConfession: How Sai brings down Cervantes. Cervantes's men kill the way for recordings to reach the outside world....except for the old land line. Sai gets the landline working and than has his friend Ashino get Cervantes's dragon to admit on tape that yeah most of Blue Cosmos's leadership don't even really believe the racist nonsense they're spouting, but do so because fanning the flames of war makes them really fucking rich. They go further and also acknowledge that Coordinators are nowhere numerous enough to do any of the horrible things they say would happen to Naturals. Unsurprisingly Blue Cosmos's more racist branch folds pretty quickly.

* ReallyGetsAround: Vanai Zannuchi, in addition to being a RichBitch REALLY likes to sleep around (at one point having an affair with FROST of all people).

* RichBitch: Vanai Zannuchi full stop. While she DOES mellow out somewhat due to falling in love with Sai she's still rather condescending and elitist at the best of times

* TheAtoner: Vlad



* BoomerangBigot: Dr Frank of Blue Cosmos aids them in their genocidal plans even though he himself is a coordinator



* TheFriendNoOneLikes: Vlad Valkovich aka Andre Forkav aka the Strangler Horrificus. Notably Andy hates Vlad for wiping out most of his family (and by Vlad's admission Andy was next on the list before the cell got exposed). Kisaka hates Vlad for betraying him and killing his wife and unborn children (though technically Vlad DIDN'T actually fire the shots.) Vlad only gains forgiveness when he dies fighting Frost.



* OldShame: How Vanai views her affair with Frost.
* RedemptionEqualsDeath: Vlad saves Cagalli and Lacus from Frost but dies in the process.
* ReallyGetsAround: Vanai Zannuchi, in addition to being a RichBitch REALLY likes to sleep around (at one point having an affair with FROST of all people).



* TeenGenius: Noah Borander, Kira Yamato, technically all pubescent Edenites can be considered this.

* TragicVillain: Randolph Aireg; he looses his entire unit when Kira and Lacus unintentionally give the blue cosmos death squad lead by Frost and Cray an opening, he blames Lacus for it then Noah tricks him into thinking Kira did it and that he's abusing Lacus. Yeah he's an asshole but after everything he went through you feel rather sorry for him.
** Mary O'Brien is another example. Mary was friends with a young boy who was hospital bound....than the hospital is blown up during Miriallia and Dearka's fight with Cray, with Mary badly injured in the collateral damage. And her best friend dies in the process.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: The guy who accidentally killed Frost's parents and thus got Frost put in Doctor Borander's hands is none other than Unato Seiren. Yeah, thanks a lot.

Added DiffLines:

* HeroWithBadPublicity: Athrun and Cagali get saddled with this in CC, due to a mix of a very successful Blue Cosmos smear campaign, being in the wrong place and doing the wrong thing at the wrong time (Namely, a very erotic game of Twister at a cabin that had been bugged by Blue Cosmos), and Athrun being Patrick Zala's son.

* [[spoiler: TheEmpath: When it's revealed that Lacus Clyne is an Active Newtype, Kira, Anthrun, and (shortly after) the rest of the Archangel's crew realize Lacus is a sort of reverse one of these, in that she can impart the emotions she is feeling onto others through her songs.]]

* CovertPervert: Kira Yamato [[spoiler: especially during his second puberty]], who's best described as a KnightInShiningArmor, and yet he's probably one of the dirtier individuals here. [[spoiler: The spoilered part is kind of [[JustifiedTrope Justified]], as anyone who knows how puberty works will tell you.]]

* HiddenDepths: Zacharis Frost, of all people. He actually has a pretty good grasp on how love (as in the emotion), of all things, works (though his description on how he expresses it is warped by his insanity). He even points out that Ashino has a crush on a girl because his recent behavior fits within how Frost described love (and honestly it's not hard to agree.)
