Johanne O. Marley/Tropes

Johanne has shown various tropes as one of the two main characters in the World of Gourd Roger, which includes the One Fate, Third Age and Kaizoku no Blin.

Tropes

 * The Idiot from Osaka: Johanne usually speaks with a Kansai accent and because of that, Jonathan usually notes her accent as something that sounds very angry. Her intonation is usually accompanied by swearing/cursing in the official translations of the series, maximizing the series' seinen nature. She also has a tendency to fight anyone, but most of her recorded fights are otherwise childish and with other women.


 * No Name Given: "Johanne O. Marley" is actually an alias, and her real name is still a mystery to this date. In KNB Episode 14, her real name starts with the letter "A".


 * Singing Voice Dissonance: Johanne's entire personality changes when she sings. Johanne's speaking voice is mostly accompanied with energy, spice, occasional cursing (which is sometimes an exaggerated mistranslation of her Kansai accent) and gusto. On the other hand, when Johanne sings, she gains an unrealistically sweet and kindly persona and produces a soothing atmosphere around her.


 * Intimate Marks: Johanne actually has a tattoo. It is a purple peeping bear tattoo with the word "Peekaboo" written in English, and it is located at the back portion of her hips. It can be seen when she wears a crop top, commonly while sleeping.


 * Asleep in Class: During the Airship Traverse Arc, Johanne falls asleep in a classroom out of exhaustion after her fight with Mandala.


 * Comical Nap Drool: During the same arc, Johanne wakes up with a large amount of drool on the desk she was sleeping on.


 * Sleep Cute: Jonathan and Johanne does this all the time, despite being the official not-a-couple. In one episode, Johanne accidentally slips her hands into Jonathan's while they were sleeping in another classroom.


 * Getting Ready for Bed Plot: An entire half of KNB Episode 11 is dedicated to Johanne having a specific position before she can sleep on a desk. Before she can sleep on the desk, she checks the time on her watch, checks whether she is left- or right-handed, and then proceeds to stretching her arms and legs, up until she crosses her feet before proceeding to sleep. But she sleeps hard. Also, a ghost appears as one of Mandala's "invisible students" but Johanne did not notice her.


 * Beautiful Dreamer: The basic reason why she "sleeps cute" with Jonathan, she looks very tame while she is asleep.


 * Genki Girl: Johanne is always seen full of energy all-day. It is double-edged, with the crewmates seeing her as annoying while at other times, she spices up the atmosphere.
