An odd case occurs for this troper. See, when placed with my younger sister, I'm the Blue to her Red. But when paired with a very close friend of mine, I'm the Red to her Blue. No matter what though, my sister is Red, especially in the case of her best friend, a boy who's a grade behind her.
#108137
A bit of an extreme case here. Red Oni: Former CreepyChild turned TeenGenius who '''genuinely''' wants to be a TortureTechnician. Blue Oni: A CloudCuckoolander GamerChick/ WideEyedIdealist (but BewareTheNiceOnes if you mess with her friends). They've been dating for a few years now. And... they're kinda cute...O.o
#108138
This troper was the Red Oni, the ex-best friend was the Blue Oni. Now that we're not friends anymore, we've switched.
#108139
This troper and her friend are the red oni and the blue oni, respectively. However, the situation gets reversed in the case of another friend.
#108140
This troper knew a guy with two herding dogs named Penny and Casey. Penny was a red oni Aussie shepherd who was hyper and affectionate with people. Casey was a blue oni border collie who enjoyed relaxing and taking naps.
#108141
Same thing with this troper, only my dogs were terriers. The red oni Jack Russell Terrier Ginger is extremely hyper and not very bright, while the blue oni Rat Terrier Stu, despite having his hyper moments, is much calmer and more cunning. They also double as {{Ridiculously Cute Critter}}s, these being Terriers.
#108142
This Troper is the Blue Oni to most of his friends. He's mostly just there to make dirty jokes and keep them from doing anything stupid. Subverted with him and his friend who's a girl; we're both Red when around each other.
#108143
This Troper and her best friend are a {{subversion}}. I am more prone to question everything and only be satisfied with a rational solution, whereas she is more likely to believe in ThePowerOfLove, ThePowerOfTrust or The Power Of Faith. At first glance, it would seem clear-cut that I am the Blue Oni to my best friend's Red Oni, and one would expect me to be TheSpock and her to be TheMcCoy. Actally, though, we are ''both'' emotional, and she is more mature than I am, and far less prone to {{wangst}} and WaterWorks.
#108144
This troper, his friend, and to top it all off, their RPG characters as well. He's the Red Oni, she's the Blue Oni. VampireTheMasquerade has Tomboy Brujah Street Racer Meg (troper) and IceQueen Ventrue Lawyer Mary (friend). LegendOfTheFiveRings has Kurinto the Ronin (warrior, although with some tech skills, troper) and Sunako the Crane (diplomat, friend). What's also interesting, if they happen not to be wearing black In RealLife, the Red Oni prefers dark blue clothes (mostly jeans) and Blue Oni - red ones.
#108145
This troper and her best friend are a subversion; I'm the smart, passive-aggressive and logical one. She's the emotional, short-tempered, artistic, athletic one. But I am also a certified CloudCuckooLander, GeniusDitz, and ChaoticNeutral. She's the OnlySaneMan and TeamMom. However, everyone says this troper 'only has two settings: off-the-wall loud, bouncy and happy versus silently furious'. She spends 98% of her time on setting 1, earning her a strange type of stoicism. The Red Oni of the duo has a much larger emotional range and is much, much more prone to having ridiculous mood swings.
#108146
This troper, oddly enough, is both. Normally, he's the blue oni, albeit a blue that's more of TheStoic than anything else, but if you threaten his friends, he'll break your nose. Heaven help you if you actually hurt them....
#108147
Same here, depending on my mood. In a nutshell, sometimes I'm Gendo Ikari, other times I'm Kamina. If only I had a 14-year-old protoge...
#108148
MutantRancor again. It also happens if I start to really get into something--for example, getting competitive in a video game. It's just that the situation described above is the only one ''certain'' to cause a switch.
#108149
This troper has a friend. We take great pleasure in confusing people by having one be the blue oni one day and the red oni the next. We never describe it as such, though.
#108150
This troper and her friend. Which one is which depends on the day, but this troper is usually blue.
#108151
My best friend is cheerful, kindhearted, hyperactive, and a FriendToAllLivingThings. Likewise, I'm maniacally depressed, slightly mean-spirited, easily bored and generally not energetic, and am a very cynical DeadpanSnarker. Hell, our only difference in comparison to Haruhi and Kyon is that she's not a {{Tsundere}} of ridiculous proportions and there's nothing romantic between us whatsoever.
#108152
This troper and her best friend are this. This troper is the smart one, who never angers; the science-and-logic-loving deadpan snarker, tsundere type B and overachiever to her red oni's emotional, artistic, short-tempered athletic and caring FriendToAllLivingThings vegetarian-ness. This is particularly obvious when we play chess; we learned together, and play it often. This troper is willing to sacrifice anything if she thinks it will help her, whereas her red oni counterpart will carefully conserve her pieces and always becomes emotionally attached to them, because she names them after favourite characters. In a subversion, though, the red oni is the Sane Man, whereas this troper is a Cloudcuckoolander and somewhat of a Bunny Ears Lawyer- however, this troper is more conscious of social standards and is careful not to go ''too'' far (in public, at least), whereas her red oni often doesn't realize she is being unconventional. If we were to assign alignments, this troper would be Chaotic Neutral ("If I'm smart enough to get away with it, why not do it? Who cares about morality/the rules?"), and her red oni counterpart Neutral Good ("No, don't cheat! That's not fair!").
#108153
This troper and her husband. He's quiet, calm, difficult to anger, shy and intellectual. She's quirky, emotional, outgoing and has a profound tendency to adopt people. Some of their friends refer to them as Arthur and Molly Weasley.
#108154
You do realize this makes you a CrowningCoupleofAwesome?
#108155
This troper and his friend, who basically gave council to a teacher. I was Blue Oni, he was Red Oni. For some reason, our suggestions were opposing, but always benefited one another
#108156
This troper is, weirdly, Red Oni to her male friends and Blue Oni to her female friends.
#108157
This troper and his rival of sorts at school. The rival is a clean cut Blue oni but this troper contains elements of both but likes to think of himself as red in this case; he's aloof, quiet, slightly antisocial, observant, smart and stoic but never turns down a new experience or something that looks fun and becomes hot blooded and a determinator towards any goal he deems worthy. He sets up long term goals for himself but makes no plan other than achieving that goal and improvises the rest, making it seem like he's focused only on the present. He can ignore any insult towards himself or his goals but has a massive berserk button which can be pushed by doing anything bad to his friends. Recently this troper was made to do a speech for clas with his rival and the rival, despite not being a troper and never having this concept explained to him printed off the presentation with out different parts the colours red and blue. It seems this trope comes naturally to some people...
#108158
This troper is almost always the Blue Oni but especially so with his best friend. I'm the logical, analytical and very, very Spock like one. My best friend is the more emotional, funny comedic type.
#108159
This troper tends to be the blue with girls and a more red with guys. However, him and one of his best mates often swap which oni we are unexpectedly, though generally this troper is red.
#108160
This Troper's mother manages to create this type of relationship with every man she dates. She is very outspoken, outgoing, sarcastic, and an Adult Child with ADD that's One Of The Boys. This troper's divorced father and her mother's current boyfriend (although he'll likely tell you something else) are both very calm, level-headed, patient, tactful, typically slow to anger, and almost always the Voice Of Reason.
#108161
The ''SherlockHolmes'' film had been out for probably 48 hours before three of this troper's friends had independently come to the conclusion that she was the Holmes of their relationship.
#108162
This troper and her best friend almost fit this trope to a t. This troper is a sarcastic {{Tsundere}} while her best friend is more cheerful and much more energetic, yet for some reason they're both cheerful.
#108163
This troper is the red oni. Loud? Check. Likes Red? Check. Stubborn? Check. DeadpanSnarker? Check. My best friend is the blue oni. Calmer? To some extent, yes. Likes Blue, Green, and Black? Check. TheLancer to this troper? CHECK!
#108164
This Troper can be both. My Nakama is fairly large so I've played different to other people.
#108165
Blue Oni to my Brother's Red Oni. Myself - Lawful Good, Sane, and relatively Peaceful. My Brother - Chaotic Neutral, Bordering on Neutral Evil, Sociopath, very violent.
#108166
Red Oni to my Friend's Blue Oni. Myself - Chivalrous Pervert, Opinionated, and Emotional. My Friend - Chaste Hero, Soft Spoken, and Deadpan.
#108167
Wow, there's a lot of us like this. Including myself (Blue Oni: LawfulGood, the VoiceofReason and would-be KnightInShiningArmour) and my best mate (Red Oni: ChaoticNeutral verging on ChaoticEvil, JerkAss, and champion DeadpanSnarker).
#108168
This troper seems to switch back and forth. Around people she likes she's a Red Oni, to people she hates/doesn't know/doesn't care about she's a Blue Oni all the way.
#108169
This troper is definately Blue Oni to her older sister's Red Oni. I am a DeadpanSnarker, StraightMan, and NeutralGood. My sister? GenkiGirl, CloudCuckooLander, and GeniusDitz. It also helps that her favorite color is red and mine is blue. I seem to be the Blue Oni with most of my relationships, such as my best friend.
#108170
This troper is downright insane and psychopathic, while her sister is down to earth and calm. Though sometimes I beome The Stoic and she starts turning on the Ocular Gushers.
#108171
In ThisTroper's family, he is often the Blue Oni to his brother (BerserkerButton Prone) and his Sister (TheDitz and OcularGusher Prone). That being said, he's the stoic only because if he let stuff bother him, he has a very Red Oni anger.
#108172
This Troper and her friend are a Red Oni Blue Oni force to be reckoned with. I'm Red Oni with a loud mouth, passionate, ill tempered, and a Cloud Cuckoo Lander as well as Genius Ditz. He has shades of each but much more mellowed out, very intellectual, and quiet. We play off eachother, him calming me down and bringing me down to Earth, and me giving him a spark of energy and making him much less awkward in social situations.
#108173
My boyfriend and I are a subversion. If you were not one of our friends, you'd think I would be the blue oni[pale, generally quiet, pretty shy, always reading, etc.] and he would be the red oni[generally loud, cracks lots of jokes, a bit more on the tan side]. However, I am the real red oni[more prone to being emo, wangsts a lot about everything, has over the top reactions, tends towards angry speeches and rants, "silly" as he likes to call me] and he's the blue oni[likes to be punctual, thinks practically, always the one who keeps me from getting so distracted I injure myself]. It's pretty amusing to some of my friends how we act around each other.
#108174
Most Duo Relationships I am in are this. I'm usually Red Oni because I'm quite Emotional and Opinionated. I'm Blue Oni when dealing with Sociopaths...which is a common occurrence.
#108175
This troper and his best friend is this trope, and avert all at the time. Most of time, My friend "Joe" is usually Emotional and opinionated, and a bit of a free spirit, The Red Oni. While I on the other hand, is usually detached, logical, the one who keeps people safe, The Blue Oni. Accept when human nature kicks in, then we tend to flip flop. The oddest thing is, at one point he had a flaming red skull wallpaper, while I had an icy cold skull wallpaper....
#108176
This troper is the Blue Oni to her mother's Red Oni. My mother was aware of this long before I was and often makes me talk to people who irritate her (e.g. the Pizza guy, tech support) since I can remain calm when she can't.
#108177
This troper seems like the Blue Oni of any couple, but that's not the case, as he is a mix of both onis. He is very traditional, polite, kind, calm, and is well versed in intellectual pursuits. But on the other hand, he is very friendly, lovable, and adores life, and has a bit of a type B {{Tsundere}} streak and a very mild competitive streak. :)
#108178
Woah. It's like this trope was made about this troper's friend and his BF. They even each have shirts in their respective colours.
#108179
My two friends- The Blue Oni who is the sanest and quietest of the group, and Red Oni who is wild and loud. However, when Blue crashes, they switch roles. I have also been told that when in class I'm more sarcastic, but when around my friends I'm a mix of ditzy, outright bizarre, and emotional.
#108180
This troper and three of his friends are two reds (me, the hot-headed kid who is slightly crazy, and Mike, the otaku who makes random outbursts) and two blues (John, the quiet one, and Colin, the serious one).
#108181
Somewhat subverted for me and my brother. If you didn't know us, you'd think I was the blue(shy, mostly calm, and laid-back, and my favorite color is blue) and he was the red(louder, often cracks jokes, enjoys sports, and his favorite color is red) But in a way, I could be considered the red oni(Chaotic Neutral Cloudcuckoolander that's short tempered, cares less for rules, and more likely to talk back) while he's more like the blue (Lawful Good that cares more for rules set by authority( parents, teachers, ect), hardly ever talks back to anyone ,and puts schoolwork before everything else)
#108182
This troper's CityOfHeroes characters accidentally fall into this. The rebellious, reckless, freedom-loving Fate's Fool (named because she is supposed to serve fate, but deliberately spites it instead), who's primary color is red, and the systematic, cold, law-abiding Umbral Aurora, who's primary color is blue.
#108183
This troper's mother and father, sort of. Her mother is the more emotional of the two, while her father serves as a mediator in many instances. However, both appear to be equally smart.
#108184
Said troper is also planning to write a story featuring a group of schoolkids who have adventures. In their FiveManBand, TheBigGuy (an energetic, fun-loving {{Berserker}} with power over fire) and TheSmartGuy (who's quiet, studious and into chemistry and video games, and has power over air) are a male Red and Blue Oni, respectively, whereas TheLancer (who's hot-tempered, sentimental, loves everyone, has a long-standing rivalry with TheBigGuy, and fights with water) and TheChick (cool, collected, enjoys reading and writing poetry, and fights with earth) are female versions, with TheHero falling neatly in the middle. At their high-school graduation, the male Red and Blue Oni wear red and blue ties, respectively; while the female Red and Blue Oni wear red and blue dresses, respectively. TheHero wears a purple dress.
#108185
This Troper and his Troper roommate, big time. Watching AvatarTheLastAirBender and reading BlackestNight, they've come to the separate yet complementing conclusions that this Troper, based on his wit and his overall chillness, would be of the Water Tribe, while his roommate's passion would place him in the Fire Nation, and that in the DC cosmology this Troper would be well-suited to the Blue Lanterns while his roommate has traces of Red Lantern-ness.
#108186
This Troper became ''extremely'' red after starting university, doing a full 180 from TheQuietOne to a HotBlooded LargeHam Determinator McCoy who believes wholeheartedly in ThePowerOfFriendship and that ''anything'' can be accomplished by trying hard enough. However, next to his childhood best friend [=/=] eternal rival, he becomes blue because, hey, somebody's got to play Straight Man to that Chivalrous Sex Maniac.
#108187
This troper is a blue oni to his hyperactive roommate's red oni.
#108188
This troper's girlfriend and her twin sister. The girlfriend is a SilentBob and Stoic while her sister is a BottleFairy and GenkiGirl.
#108189
When placed next to my cousin, im the blue to his red, hes very athletic, very loud, and has average grades, while im quite the nerd, dont get very physical and tend to be philosophical at times.
#108190
This troper is always the Red Oni.
#108191
This troper and her best friend in high school were odd in that the best friend was pretty much the red oni's usual intelligence with the blue oni's temperament to the troper's red oni heart but blue oni's stereotypical knowledge. The troper was the hyperactive nerd who was talking most of the time, the friend very aloof and snarky, but where the friend would be usually in normal level classes, the troper was the one in Advanced Placement and reading books most of the time. It was... interesting.
#108192
This troper is, not to sound pompous (although I admit I am being) an intelegent well cultured boy who is not good at socialising but generally avoids trouble, my step-sister is a complete idiot, plain and simple.
#108193
I'm a blue pretending to be a red in the hopes that I will become one.
#108194
My parents have two Boston Terriers. One of them is a tiny, hyperactive, adorable BrattyHalfPint. The other is sedate to the point of laziness and would much rather spend his time lying on my mom's lap all day. He is also in possession of a lot more common sense, and so is considerably less likely to plough face-first into fences at top speed. This troper is red and this troper is blue for ever and ever and ever.
#108195
This troper and his best friend eventually decided that we needed to settle who had the Red Oni and who had the Blue Oni, as we had been swapping it for about a year. We eventually decided he was the Blue Oni, since he usually thought ideas through more and was more careful while playing our favourite game, and I was the Red Oni simply because I go LeeroyJenkins whenever the hell I feel like it.
#108196
My brother and I switch dynamics at random. When I am a bubbly and cheerful Red Oni, he is serious and cynical. When we switch, he's acts HotBlooded and I'm quiet and shy. When we're around other people, though, we are Blue Oni to whoever it is.
#108197
In this troper's family, I'm the Blue Oni to my cousin's Red Oni. And interestingly enough, my aunt and uncle's dogs follow the same deal: One is a complete Red, willing to run off and bark at anybody who enters the house, while the other embodies Blue, and is willing to be nice (and wait to get petted).
#108198
This troper has a somewhat unique version of this with her friend. If we were both to have our ideal personalities, I would fit Red perfectly, and she would crate the perfect Blue counterpart. As we are in reality, however, I am the Blue to her Red on nearly every level.
