!!Tropes associated with Fatal Chaos:

http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fatal_chaos.jpg

* ArtEvolution: Ben has adapted a looser drawing stroke as of ''3rd Strike''. Most notable changes occur to [[AmazonianBeauty Eva's muscles]] and [[AnimeHair Rex's spiky hair]], where they got toned down.

** To clarify, the same reaction panels were reused several times for the same character with minor edits. Entirely redrawing the characters would result in an artstyle clash, since Juice's (the art director for the final story arcs) strokes are different than Ben's. See {{Cosmic Deadline}} above for the reason of this trope.

** A similar situation occured in ''Manga/Le Gardenie'' but it has a faster overall pacing compared to ''Fatal Chaos'' so it wasn't affected as much.

* EvilIsHammy: [[spoiler: Max renders his and Rex's name in all caps once he overthrows the Evil Rabbit Boss and became its leader.]]

* {{Homage}}: The girls printed on the Emperor, Citizen and Slave cards resemble Lemon, Apple and Kiwi respectively from [[LeGardenie Le Gardenie]], which is another series created by Ben himself.

* RageAgainstTheAuthor: The entire intermisssion is this, from the fans,Ben's then-workmates to the characters themselves. Notable example is when [[FistOfTheNorthStar Kenshiro]] [[RapidFireFisticuffs rapid-punches ]] Ben to represent the situation where some of the fans claiming him ripping-off ''Anime/TenjhoTenge''. This is not the case.

* SoreLoser: At one point The Judo Chick gets ticked off over a game against Phoebe. {{DisproportionateRetribution Disproportionate Retribution}} ensues.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotSymbolic: The way the dead troublemaker is hung after being murdered.

* RageAgainstTheAuthor: The entire intermisssion is this, from the fans,Ben's then-workmates to the characters themselves. Notable example is when [[FistOfTheNorthStar Kenshiro]] [[RapidFireFisticuffs rapid-punches ]] Ben to represent the situation where some of the fans claiming him ripping-off [[TenjhoTenge Tenjho Tenge]].
** The interview section in Volume 3 shows that while this is partly true, [[WordOfGod Ben]] only takes some ideas from Creator/OhGreat as a foundation for Fatal Chaos (since both series fall under the same genre), and not copy-pasting the entire Tenjho Tenge storyline.

* {{Badass}}: Leo, Phoebe, The Judo Chick and [[TookALevelInBadass later Rex as well]].
