  • Dirty Coward: Nhine rarely participates in fights and rather chooses to retread as soon as the Peace-Bull engage his troops.

Florentine

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_3746_6.jpg
Arguably the series true main antagonist. He almost exclusively uses revolvers or melee attacks and never takes of his helmet. He often appears to be the leaders right hand man.

  • Malaproper : Dr. Fanggreen often messes up common phrases. Some examples of this:

    • "You want something done right, you gotta make some lemonade"
