** Lady Kiarawa (a.k.a. Darkmother Belladonnica) would be just as evil towards the company's employees as anyone wise, overworking them beyond exhaustion and utilizing them for experiments, where Corin tends to be more mindful, at worst indifferent, of their condition for the sake of productivity and greater proliferation of Evil.

* PragmaticVillainy: Pragmatism tends to be the primary difference between Corin and any would-be usurpers to his place as C.E.O.

---> '''Corin:''' In the past, we pushed our employees to explore their deep pool of inner Evil in a comfortable way in their own time. Belladonnica kicked people down into the pool and held their heads under the water.
** Fourest is described by Corin as "kind of a clone and kind of a board wishlist for an ideal C.E.O. without any thought put into how the different aspects work together or affect the whole." His thinking in regards to Evil is much more straightforward and to the point, such as being much more willing to just kill an obstacle even when doing so might cause more problems than it fixes. The only reason he doesn't do that to Corin to usurp the role of C.E.O. is that be would be disqualified from the position if he had anything even remotely to do with Corin's death.

** Violet Trudge is the single hardest working employee in all of Kakos Industries. While this title is self-proclaimed, it's proven true when she's introduced in episode 102. Corin calls multiple divisions while chasing down some clues and Violet is at each and every one, covering for everyone else who's at the annual Halloween party. She's still just as hard at work in episode 104, despite everyone in the building, including her, becoming sick. In fact, she calls Corin to complain about everyone else slacking. Turns out this is a problem because Violet is "Patient Zero" and her working literally everywhere is ''why'' everyone elseis sick. Upon being forced to accept this and, subsequenty, being forced to rest her illness off, she demands sixteen books of crossword puzzles, seven books of sudoku, eight seasons of a trashy television show, and one hundred pounds of yarn or, she swears, she's going to lose her shit. The episode ends with Corin reporting that Violet was automatically clocked out upon entering the infirmary and, because it's been years since she did that last, the thousands of overtime hours she's racked up crashed the accounting systems.

A Date With Rosie Palms is no longer a trope


* ADateWithRosiePalms: As expected, there are some references to masturbation and even a Celebration of Self Love, seeing as Kakos Industries takes it upon themselves to tell people when and how to get themselves off.

Incredibly Lame Pun is a redirect and not a trope by itself. Moments where someone acknowledges how bad the pun is counts as Lame Pun Reaction.


* IncrediblyLamePun: Corin is baffled at the shoddy attempt at the infixation of Evil into convenience from ''Conevilience'' Radios.

* SadistShowSailorSenshiSendUp: Episode 9, "Kawaii", features a HumongousMecha melee as part of the Celebration of Technology. Among the robots included is the "Giant-Ass Schoolgirl That's Kawaii as Fuck, Yo", created by the company Giant-Ass Robots to Kick in Your Face, and which is described as looking "a lot like a gigantic Japanese schoolgirl wearing what [Corin] can only imagine is a somewhat smaller than regulation uniform." It goes up against a robot tentacle monster, the "Ocotobot Plus Two", and ultimately wins the battle by undergoing a transformation sequence that replaces the initial uniform with a new one and summons a "Giant-Ass Sword of Sorrows".
