* TheAgeless/AgeWithoutYouth - A mix. While in the parallel world, people will not age. However, the length of time they stay in this world is reflected in the world they came from. If a person stays for longer than their natural lifespan in the parallel world, they cannot return to their homes, for they will simply age past death and drop dead. This fact is [[IncrediblyLamePun reflected]] in the mirrors, which characters can look into to see how old they REALLY are. Note that, though time passes much faster in the real world than the parallel one (see Time Dilation below), the aging process treats the time spent in the parallel world as natural time. Two weeks spent in the parallel world ages you two weeks in the real world, regardless of how much faster time is actually going in the real world.

** Worse, perhaps the other characters killed them, if they opposed the growing hostility towards humans.

* DarkerAndEdgier - The hatred of the few Grimm characters that are still alive has warped them heavily.
* DecoyProtagonist - Nearly every member of the group seemingly becomes the main protagonist at some point.
* FairyTale - Many are included in this story, but interestingly, the quest of the main characters in this magical world, itself, becomes something straight out of Grimm's Fairy Tales.
* HeroicSacrifice - [[Spoiler: Saxon]] stays behind to fend off the forest creatures while the rest of the survivors escape.
* NewTechnologyIsEvil - An interesting version. The Grimm creatures turned on humans because our modern religions and lifestyles made us stop believing in them. Our belief gave them power, and with so few people believing, they have been reduced to living in their parallel universe, having to abduct new people to keep their little world alive.
