* AIIsACrapshoot: [[spoiler:The Mother program was designed to solve the problems of humanity and create a utopia that balanced the ecology. Except it saw humans as the problem. Subtly, through the use of social lethargy, it killed off the human race. By the time humans realized it was a problem, it was too late. Also within The Wisdom Box, Mother is sorting through data it considers "beautiful". What it doesn't think is beautiful is marked for deletion, which Dual and Dorothy perceive as data that's infected by a virus.]]

* EmotionsVsStoicism: Dual shows signs of being attached to the worlds she deletes, while Dorothy has no problem, believing being attached makes it worse to delete an infected world.

* GratuitousEnglish: The Japanese title has an official English name with a bit of PurpleProse: "Vitreous Flower & Destroy the World". The Japanese title itself means "The Glass Flower & the Destroyed World."



* WalkingTheEarth: Dual, Dorothy, and Remo wander around all of the backup data to see if Remo can remember anything from it and at the same time scan for viruses. In effect, they learn a whole lot more about human emotions and discover life beyond being programs.

!!''Garakowa: Restore the World'' contains examples of the following tropes:

* ArtificialIntelligence: Every single person on the planet had an AI copy created within the Wisdom Box. The main characters, all being programs themselves, also apply as this.
* ComputerVirus: The main 'villains' which Dual and Dorothy must 'compress and delete'. [[spoiler:Partially subverted. Mother released updates to view fragments of programs as viruses. Deleting worlds has created more of these.]]
* [[spoiler:CorruptedData: Many of the viruses are actually this, remnants of when their worlds were deleted. The antivirus programs have been updated to view them as viruses.]]
