* BreakingTheFourthWall: Since "Honkai Salvation Log" puts the player directly "into" the game to try to save its infrastructure from the B.B.B. virus, Ai Hyperion speaks directly to the player, addressing them by the handle they use for their Mihoyo account for the game. She also asks the player to enter a phrase of their liking into the game, [[spoiler:which ends up being the admin key needed to resurrect her in the Supply system]].

* MesACrowd: In "Honkai Salvation Log", along with Ai Hyperion, there are three versions of Ai-chan, each of whom is responsible for defending one of the modules for the game. Ai-chan [O] is the regular chibi version of Ai-chan, Ai-chan [E] has red hair and a frown, and Ai-chan [P] has gray hair and looks sad. They later explain that the letter designations represent aspects of Ai Hyperion Λ: [O] represents her being the original, [E] is energetic, and [P] is pessimistic.
* PerpetualExpression: The small Ai-chans that help you in "Honkai Salvation Log" each have exactly one expression that never changes even when their sprite moves, which accentuates the comical effect.

* FanservicePack: In contrast to the comical and childish-looking NPC Ai-chan, this version is obviously more palatable to the eye, with Manga/SailorMoon-esque twin tails, a form-fitting top that bares her shoulders, and of course, a sizeable chest.

She also has 3 (event-exclusive) weapons modeled after her: a cannon for Bronya, a "[[DropTheHammer hammer]]" for Himeko and a cross for Theresa. Ai-chan becomes playable in version 6.2 through the SP battlesuit Chrono Navi (MECH-type, fire), and is the main protagonist of the "Honkai Salvation Log" event as Ai Hyperion Λ.\\

Chrono Navi's signature weapon is a massive chakram called Rudder in Dream[[note]]pri-arm: Rudder in Dream Λ-1[[/note]].

She also asks the player to enter a phrase of their liking into the game, [[spoiler:which ends up being the admin key needed to resurrect her in the Supply system]].

* HollywoodHacking: In "Honkai Salvation Log", she and the Designer frequently have to rewrite the corrupted code of the game, which means a lot of summoning holographic interfaces, on-the-fly coding, and directly hacking the Abyss system to break B.B.B.'s dominance and the Supply sustem to [[spoiler:resurrect Ai Hyperion Λ after she was damaged by B.B.B.]].

* RingsOfDeath: Chrono Navi is the first battlesuit to actually use her Chakram as a thrown weapon like its real life counterpart[[note]]Pardofelis' chakram splits into two swords and only comes together to portal in Can for her ultimate, and Aponia's floats behind her and seems to be a focus for her lighting attacks.[[/note]]

* TeamMom: In "Honkai Salvation Log", when she's not assisting the Captain with the missions, she's wrangling the Ai-chan assistants and the Designer and trying to keep everything more or less on an even keel.

Ai-chan [E] is the regular chibi version of Ai-chan and is always upbeat and chipper; Ai-chan [O] has red hair, scowls, and is always spoiling for a fight; and Ai-chan [P] has gray hair, a sad expression, and is somewhat glum.

* ADayInTheLimelight: One supplementary comic is about her backstory. Back in 2001, a year after the 2nd Honkai War, Theresa investigated a strange FloatingContinent above the Arctic Ocean and entered a strange hole in its grounds. There, she first met Ai-chan, [[spoiler:or rather, an android called "A1", who came from the Previous Era. The two then fought each other, and then Theresa beat her and brought her body to the ''Hyperion''. There, she was connected to the battleship, and her AI then inhabited its system. As [[TraumaInducedAmnesia she lost her memories and abilities]], she was given a new name, "Ai-chan".]]
* BadLiar: Despite her proudly boasting that players won’t be able to see the Valkyrie’s panties no matter how hard they try, it is in fact, very easy to see the panties of several Valkyries.
* DealWithTheDevil: In "Empyrean Legends", where she poses as one of the villains, a mysterious person came to her, offering some "crystalium" for her. The shady person then asked her to "make the Celestial disappear". She then becomes the second boss of the event, using the crystals to empower herself.
* DrunkWithPower: This is how she becomes one of the villains in "Empyrean Legends". She used to be just a simple cabbage farmer in a village that primarily grows pumpkins; many of the villagers ostracized her and pushed her away to the corner of the village. One day, a shady bald man offered "Crystalium" to the villagers, claiming that it'll help growing crops much faster (they had a crop failure back then); out of all the villagers, only Ai-chan accepted it, the rest seeing it as a scam. [[CassandraTruth Except that it wasn't]]--her cabbages grew big and quickly, enough to cover most of the village. The twist is that the crystals are also a ToxicPhlebotinum that caused her ego to spiral out of control; she soon pushed away all of the pumpkin farmers and built a palace for herself, and her cabbages also caused animals that ate them to become violent and turn into monsters. After the Celestial fights her, the former cures her of the Crystalium poisoning, turning her back normal.
* FightingClown: In "Empyrean Legends", her attacks either consists of firing barrages of [[AbnormalAmmo cabbages]], or parodies of other attacks in the game, such as Kiana's dimensional cat paws, copies of Oath of Judah, or [[spoiler:Herrscher of the Void's Ultimate Skill]].
* FinishingMove: In Schicksal HQ Open World, Ai-chan can finish off almost-dying mooks with her skill during combat mode. This is helpful when you're completing tasks, as many of them come with a time challenge.
* GratuitousEnglish: When you're upgrading your weapon or stigma, Ai-chan will exclaim "Weapon upgrade!" or "Stigma upgrade!" respectively. When you put a complete stigmata set on your character, she'll say "Wow, sweet!"
* ImportantHaircut: [[PlayingWithATrope Played with.]] In [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2Rtl3VVDmw the intro animation]] for "Stan Wars Overtime", Ai-chan announces that she's stepping down as top idol and resigning. She then pulls the cabbage-shaped pieces of her hair off and tosses them aside as she walks off the stage, revealing that they're just hair extensions that are worn by the top idol.
* ImprobableWeaponUser: Ai-chan's Candy (the cross weapon) attacks by dropping gift boxes onto enemies once it's deployed.
* MacguffinGuardian: [[spoiler:The purpose of her past self, A1, was to guard a part of the "last Divine Key" that was destroyed by the final Herrscher. She tried testing Theresa if the latter is worthy of using the weapon, and she came to the conclusion that Theresa wasn't, because the weapon is meant to defend the world and humanity, and that someone who's bound by their personal feelings is not qualified to use it. After A1 was defeated, the device she was guarding was brought to Schicksal HQ.]]
* ManaMeter: In Schicksal HQ Open World, she comes with an energy meter of her own. Some of her hacking abilities will cost her energy (some of them more than others), while a few of them have free cost.
* {{Mascot}}: She's one for the game. She also becomes the "face" for the game's developers in the social media.
* MindRape: It wasn't her intention, but [[spoiler:when A1 tried to do a "mind check" on Theresa, the latter ended up relieving her memories, including the bad ones, up to Cecilia's death]]. She was left kneeling on the ground after that.
* OneHitKill: In Schicksal HQ Open World, she can kill the roaming mooks in one hit whenever you're outside of combat mode, by [[BackStab walking to the mook's back]] and then activating Ai-chan's skill.
* TheParalyzer: Ai-chan Hammer's active skill has Himeko [[GroundPound smash the ground with it]], causing a small blast that has a 50% chance to stun nearby enemies.
* PlatformingPocketPal: In the Schicksal HQ Open World, she becomes this, in the vein of Higokumaru below. She floats alongside you, picks up collectables for you, and [[HollywoodHacking acts as an all-purpose hacker]] for the many interactive devices on the stages [[HackYourEnemy and the enemy robots and turrets]]. By [[LevelUp leveling her up]], she'll be able to perform more things.
* PointBuildSystem: In Schicksal HQ Open World, Ai-chan's "tech" is put around like this, with you allocating skill points to a [[SkillScoresAndPerks skill tree]].
* RocketPunch: The Ai-chan Cannon fires her 2 fists instead of normal rockets. They also [[RandomEffectSpell give random status effects onto the target]] by a chance.
* SelfInsertFic: The Stigmata Naoe Kanetsugu looks like an adult version of Ai-chan, odango hair and everything. When you read the Stigmata's notes, it quickly becomes apparent that Ai-chan has written herself into a version of the real samurai's accounts, which Himeko lampshades in a report to Theresa.
-->We need to do something about Ai-chan's obsession with these Japanese Taiga Dorama history TV shows, Principal. Her addiction is getting in the way of everything.
* SpaceshipGirl: More like "Airship Girl", but it's still the same.
* VillainNoLongerIdle: In the 2nd chapter of "Empyrean Legends", she's just lounging in her palace, only talking to the protagonists through the robotic scarecrows on the lands. When they start [[StormingTheCastle storming her palace]] and the guards come to her reporting it, however, she decides to take arms with the Ai-chan Hammer and confront the heroes by herself.
* VomitDiscretionShot: Once she's defeated at the end of ch. 2 of "Empyrean Legends", the Celestial cures her Crystalium poisoning by forcing her to puke it out. It's a painful and [[BloodFromTheMouth slightly bloody]] process; the player (fortunately) only gets the text describing what's happening.
* WorfHadTheFlu: [[spoiler:In the middle of the fight between her "past self" A1 and Theresa, she suddenly stopped working because she exhausted her energy supply. At that point she couldn't hold the fight anymore; in desperation, she tried to self-destruct to [[TakingYouWithMe take Theresa down with her]], but Theresa stopped her cold with a slap.]]
