History Manga / ParallelParadise

* BalefulPolymorph: [[spoiler: Nakuta]] is subjected to a horrific case of this by [[spoiler: the Empress through a spell]], reconstructing the poor girl's Amazon-like beauty into a dirty piglet with an ugly bald human head where it's normal head would be, complete with her normal eyes. All talented enough Guardians are apparently cursed with something similar, including [[spoiler: Leighmary]].

* SamusIsAGirl: [[spoiler:The series spends so much time focusing on the LadyLand ascpect that it never dawns on Youta that the God of Deep Jealousy could turn out to be male. And indeed, none of the people who know about the God refer to them with either male or female pronouns. When time comes and we see the ''real'' god, they are indeed a man.]]

* CelibateHero: Leighmary feels nothing but dissapointment when she sees her garrison throwing itself at Youta with a bit of prodding from other characters. She's never even touched herself before [[spoiler: she very reluctantly gives herself up to Youta to be spared her Moon-Breaking, as everyone including herself agrees she's far too strong a potential ally to let her suffer such a fate.]]

* BalefulPolymorph: [[spoiler: Nakuta]] is subjected to a horrific case of this by [[spoiler: the Empress through a spell]], reconstructing the poor girl's AmazonessBeauty into a dirty piglet with an unspeakable ugly bald human head where it's normal head would be.

* BalefulPolymorph: [[spoiler: Nakuta]] is subjected to a horrific case of this by [[spoiler: the Empress and some BlobMonster]], reconstructing the poor girl's AmazonessBeauty into a dirty piglet with an unspeakable ugly bald human head where it's normal head would be.

* HateSink: Even the most vile of the antagonists has at least one character trait that leavens their villainy. [[spoiler:Kanejou]] has none--the character is a petty bully with a HairTriggerTemper, and every scene featuring them emphasizes their brutality.

* CuteClumsyGirl: Arara is this UpToEleven, seemingly incapable of taking three steps before tripping over her own feet and falling flat on her face. [[spoiler: It's not an act, either: TheDreaded Galia, mightiest of the God of Deep Jealousy's apostles, really is that much of a klutz.]]

* WickedWitch: Kai, a depraved, cannibalistic woman with magic abilities who secretly holds Lille under her thumb. Galia, another witch under the God of Deep Jealousy's employ, is said to be even ''[[UpToEleven worse]]'', [[spoiler: and when she finally makes her appearance, NOPE: not an exaggeration.]]

* TheDogWasTheMastermind: [[spoiler:After hundreds of chapters, the gang comes out to find the God of Deep Jealousy is...a boy Youta knew in high schoolwho was only mentioned twice before in flashbacks.]]

** When the girls' moons breaks off, they begin to melt from their skins to their bones, leaving only their clothes they wear after they dies. Youta sees this first hand upon seeing Haru's death.

** It's not as if Youta's exempt from this trope as well. [[spoiler:As time went on, he eventually became rather crual and demanding to Lumi and other girls, even forcing a lesbian couple to get addicted to him while they [[{{Netorare}} take their turns being tied up watching him]]. He does feel some remorse, but he's convinced himself that it's all to help them avoid moon breaking.]]

* {{Netorare}}: Youta once tries to mate a lesbian couple in order to collar them. The scene is played out exactly like a ntorare scenario, where one girl is restrained and forced to watch her partner be mated by Youta, all while the latter girl insists she won't give into lust and remain devoted to her lover. She breaks very easily and urns into a sopping mess for Youta, and the one restrained threatens to kill Youta for this before being mated herself.

And indeed, none of the people who know about the God refer to them with either male or female pronouns. When time comes and we see the ''real'' god, tey are indeed a man.]]

** [[spoiler: The God Of Deep Jealousy is finally revealed. It's Nishina. ''The God of Deep Jealousy is Nishina.'' '''''[[PoweredByAForsakenChild The God Of Deep Jealousy is Nishina, trapped in a bizarre machine.]]]]'''''

* ReviveOnTheSpot: [[spoiler:When Youta dies, he gets sent back to his time with some injuries. Reentry into the fantasy world involves him bringing himself to critical condition, but he respawns in the world just before his time of death. The story makes clear that he can't just do this every time, since every death brings his original body closer to becoming immobile. Eventually he's effectively on his last life, as his parents have taken his original body on life support.]]

* MeaningfulAppearance: All guardian girls have a pair of small spheres they call moons on each side of their heads. They shatter when exposed to pheremones released when they are about to hit reach their limit.

* HumanoidAbomination: The Kall have the voices and basic shape of human men, and are violent, extremely powerful demons that [[TheDreaded even the elite warriors of the cities are leery to fight.]]

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: [[spoiler:Everythign that happens in Youta's home time. His parents and the doctors eventually surmise that his insistence in throwing himself out the window every time he's able means he's been traumatized from his initial incident and deeply suicidal. His parents come to the conclusion that his 'attempts' are really just his way of telling them to [[SuicideByCop take him off life support]], and given his injuries have reduced him to all but his brain functions, they reluctantly oblige.]]

* UnsexySadist: Youta may have a few sadistic traits, like how he points out how undignified the girls are when he mates with them in order to embarrass them, but at no point has he truly dehumanized them or god forbid harmed them physically, and all of the times he's instigated sex it's been consensual. The same CANNOT be said for Erza, who forces herself on Youta against his will, makes him call himself a pig, kicks him and strikes him with the hilt of her scythe, threatens him with the business end of her weapon should he resist, and instigates '''''[[{{Squick}} watersports]]''''' on the poor kid. [[spoiler: Even she herself admits as she dies of Moonbreak that her urges unsettle her, but she simply can't help herself.]]
