Character Development: At the start of the series, Hissing is a broken, suicidal man and not far from a Chew Toy. He only joins the gang because he is forced to. As the series progresses, he becomes a suave, cunning and powerful criminal who genuinely enjoys criminal activity. He gains much more respect, but also loses his former kind and unassuming personality and ultimately, becomes a more unsympathetic character. His remaining sympathetic traits prevent him from becoming a pure Villain Protagonist, though. Ros-Marie, on the other hand, changes in pretty much the opposite direction; when she first appeared, she was cold and arrogant, but with a certain respect from her minions (she is implied to have been the leader of the gang). During her journey, and her romantic relationship with Hissing, she eventually becomes more caring and sympathetic. By the end, she is considering giving up her criminal career.

Butt-Monkey: Hissing at the beginning. He's dirt poor, yelled at by practically everyone, his ex-wife left him not too long ago, coldly telling him how worthless he was. At the top of it, he tries to commit suicide at a few points, but fails every time. It gets better. Simonsson may count as a downplayed example of this. He does come close to capturing the gang at points, but his poor reasoning and not-that-smart moves make him fail every time.

Affably Evil: Tough averted with the American representative, the other delegates of the criminal world association are rather nice people despite being ruthless criminals.

Black and Gray Morality: Ros-Marie and her criminal gang may be cold criminals, but they're hardly as brutal and unscrupulous as The Truffle Swine and his minions.
