* HeroicDog: All Fire Hunters are accompanied by dogs that protect them and help them fight the Fire Fiends. There's no distinction made between breeds, either; Akira's dog is tiny and no less effective at fighting than Kanata is.
* ImmuneToFire: Downplayed. [[spoiler:The Spiders have protected themselves from spontaneous combustion with the venom of an insect found in the forest, which they plan to take advantage of in destroying the capital city.]]
* PlantPerson: The treefolk are a species of humanoids with woody growths sprouting from their bodies, with more forming on them as they age.
* PointsOfLightSetting: The known world consists of the capital city, a smattering of villages, and the armored trains that bring news and goods through the trackless forest between them. There's also mention of an island far out to sea where the people speak the same language as those on the mainland.
* SpontaneousHumanCombustion: Humanity was altered during their last war to burst into flame at the mere presence of fire. This led to the collapse of civilization due to how much of humanity's technology was dependent of fire in some form. Eventually, a substitute was found in the form of a substance in the Fire Fiends' blood. [[spoiler:The Spiders have found a way to protect themselves against by using the venom of an insect found in the forest]].
* ThemeNaming: Most characters have names that reference fire of the color red.
