RolloT - TV Tropes
- ️Fri Mar 20 2015
She is RolloT and she is ready to party!
She is the host of Weekly Manga Recap
She (was) a wearer of oversized blue fuzzy hats and loves to tell Chris Benoit jokes.
She is RolloT, real name . Quinn Larios (formerly Chris Larios), and she has finally got herself a Tropes page.
In 2022, RolloT came out as a trans woman on Twitter and changed her name to Quinn.
RolloT's podcasts (and other projects) include:
- Transmission Awesome, Was the official Channel Awesome podcast
- Weekly Manga Recap, a podcast cohosted with Y: Ruler of Time reviewing the most recently released chapters of Shonen Jump. The two also take requests for manga series to read and review, and discuss various anime and manga tropes.
- Bromance, a sort of informal variety show cohosted by Liam ArcLight and SonikGav. Has also succumbed to
Schedule Slip.
- Botched Snap, an NFL podcast cohosted with Y: Ruler of Time.
- Former cohost of Turducken Is Tasty, another football podcast hosted by LordKaT.
- Two Worlds, a D&D campaign hosted by Zulu_Tango on twitch.tv.
- She is a player in several seasons of Dice Funk
RolloT provides examples of:
- Angrish:
- Do not talk about the 7-9 Seattle Seahawks, EVER.
- And then there was the time in Weekly Manga Recap when Y: Ruler of Time asks her to talk about Sasuke....
- Awesome McCoolname: She plans to name her son (and/or daughter) Mufasa Larios. Because you don't mess with so boss a name.
- Bears Are Bad News: Her DnD character Juliet (a Druid) replaced her avian companion with a bear...who wore a top hat and monocle.
- Berserk Button:
- Do not mention April Fool's Day in her presence.
- She also prefers to pretend that the Fullbringer Arc never happened.
- Apparently, she loathes Pittsburgh, listing her reasons why to Todd in the Shadows in his "Black and Yellow" review.
- Catch Phrase: "Fuck you, Nick."
- Cloudcuckoolander: Good lord.
- Cool Shades
- Crossover: She's showed up in the videos of numerous other TGWTG contributors, as well as appearing in the Massive Multiplayer Crossover Kickassia.
- Fan Boy: She's a huge fan of Lost.
- She's also a proudly-obsessed fan of One Piece. Taken to Adam Westing levels in his crossover with JewWario.
- And Boardwalk Empire. And The Golden Girls.
- More recently of the Manga World Trigger, especially of the characters Osamu Mikumo and Ai Kitora. Which led to...
- Fan Fic: She wrote one about the rather wacky sexual adventures of her
OTP, the World Trigger characters Osamu Mikumo and Ai Kitora. She posted it on Fanfiction.net
and read it in one of the WMR-episodes
aptly titled "Chris's Erotic Fanfic".
- Formerly Fat: The current page image is actually pretty out of date as Quinn really slimmed down by 2015 and is now about the same size as her friend Nik.
- Geek Physique: Rollo's Channel Awesome era or "Neckbeard Chris" was a stereotypical fat geek with a neckbeard. Rollo has since slimmed down.
- Gender Flip: Back before Quinn came out as a trans woman Quinn made a point of playing female character in every tabletop RPG she was involved in. This was likely a hint that she was trans.
- If It's You, It's Okay: Back when she was still Chris, he stated that he would definitely have sex with Liam Neeson.
- Intrepid Reporter: She has portrayed a version of herself (or himself at the time), complete with hat, "press pass" and microphone, in numerous TGWTG-related videos, including Part 3 of Kickassia.
- Jerkass: Likes to push the buttons of his TA co-hosts. (Except Pushing Up Roses. So far.)
- What are you talking about, Parshing Up Roses!
- Kindhearted Cat Lover: Subverted. At best, she has a Vitriolic Best Buds relationship with her cat Liam.
- No Indoor Voice: This was Chris' normal mode of speaking during the Channel Awesome/Transmission era. Not so much during Weekly Manga Recap where Quinn speaks with a more balanced volume.
- One-Steve Limit: Subverted in Bromance, where Liam ArcLight is one of the co-hosts, but RolloT's cat Liam is also a regular topic of discussion.
- Product Placement: She regularly promotes Shonen Jump Alpha on Weekly Manga Recap, and more recently Crunchyroll's new manga service.
- Progressively Prettier: Chris started off as an unkempt, fat neckbeard geek. He then slimmed down a bit and became a lot more handsome. Then, after coming out as trans, Quinn as turned into a beautiful brunette woman.
- The Rival: The official Weekly Shonen Jump podcast has officially declared Weekly Manga Recap their eternal rival.
- Rule 63: Clearly you have never seen Rollo Tia before
.
- Running Gag: From Weekly Manga Recap: Unohana is dead and never coming back.
- Screams Like a Little Girl:
- Applies during her time as Chris. Oh you have not heard such girlish screams from someone getting charged in Left 4 Dead 2.
- Just Chargers? Pretty much all of the special infected make Rollo T scream out loud when they attack her.
- Stand-Up Comedy: She worked as an actual stand-up comedian on the side.
