* HeroesWantRedHeads: {{Discussed|Trope}} in-series. Shirayuki's red hair is apparently so rare and exotic that she hides it in public to avoid attracting attention; she's already had to fend off kidnappers intent on selling her to a harem and a prince that wouldn't take no for an answer.

* HoldingInLaughter: After being subjected to a hypnotic drug, Mitsuhide is acting out of characters, to say the least. He bumps Kiki with the door, then apologizes to her, holding her hand, saying "Oh, Kiki, I'm so incredibly sorry. Did I cause any injury to your lovely and glorious hand?" Kiki gives him a very put out look, and slaps him over the nose, saying "Morning." Behind Prince Zen, Obi, who witnessed this, has his back to them, is visibly shaking with his arms wrapped around his trunk.

Obi deeply enjoys teasing Zen on a regular basis.basis.
** Hisame lives for getting reactions out of people, and is disappointed when Mitsuhide doesn't react as much as he'd hoped to various small pranks and inappropriate comments. This extends to the royalty he's sworn to serve, though he prefers such annoyances to only be realized when he's not present, and people he's only just met. His relationship with Kiki works so well as adults because he never annoys her beyond a glare and his annoyances of other people entertain her to the point that she's willing to be complicit in his plots.

Incorrect, as in both the anime AND the manga, they know the location of The Claw's base before the attack.


* AdaptationInducedPlotHole: In the anime adaption of the arc in which Zen, Obi, Kiki, Mitsuhide and the Mountain's Lions rescue Shirayuki and Kazuki the pirates base is discovered after Raji chases the pirates in an attempt at giving the unapologetic attempted rapist AdaptationalHeroism. Unfortunately this means that Zen not only allowed Shirayuki to be taken out of his sight to be sold into slavery at an undisclosed location it also means he conscripted Kiki to the same fate. In the manga the entire plan was generated because ''they already knew the location of the pirate's hidden base'' and were forcing them to return there in order to ambush them.

* ActionDressRip: Shirayuki, After waking up after being drugged and kidnapped on a ship Shirayuki tears the boat during elaborate ball gown she was wearing as the Tanbarun arc.representative of the kingdom of Clarines and ties it in order to move about more freely to escape.


Added DiffLines:

* ActuallyThatsMyAssistant: Ryuu and Shirayuki run into people confusing him for her assistant rather often due to the fact that she became his assistant when he was still twelve. Even after she's no longer his assistant on paper and is a pharmacist in her own right they still get this reaction since no-one expects a young teenager to be a pharmacist and it doesn't help that he usually is content to fade into the background since he doesn't really like attention.

In the manga the entire plan was generated because ''they already knew the location of the pirate's hidden base'' and were forcing them to return there in order to ambush them.
* AdaptationalWimp: In the anime Shirayuki was given InsaneForgiveness as well as adding scenes of her backing away in terror and sitting listlessly before deciding what to do, and skipping through the forest spinning around with her arms held out talking about how pretty it is rather than just taking a walk while irritated at Zen for tagging along all within in the ''first episode''. It's an especially odd choice as her determination, decisiveness and career driven life are key aspects of the story and how she builds relationships.


Added DiffLines:

* AgonyOfTheFeet: PlayedForLaughs when Obi goes to give a message to Shirayuki from Zen while she's being taught ballroom dancing. She rushes up to him and asks if he can be her new dance partner as in the background her unfortunate teacher says he is capable of completing his job while struggling just to stand since she's been stepping on his feet nonstop. Obi tries not to laugh when he says he's too busy working. (Manga only, in the anime its Shirayuki whose feet are killing her).
* AlliterativeFamily: The known members of the Bergatt family whose names are Touka, Tsuruba, and Tariga, all starting with a T.


Added DiffLines:

* AngerBornOfWorry:Zen is particularly prone to this as Shirayuki and Obi quickly learn. He is especially annoyed when his friends try to hide or play down illnesses or injuries. Obi manages to earn this reaction out of Zen, Shirayuki, and Mitsuhide when he leaves during the night with one of his former associates without telling anyone where he's actually going just leaving a note under Zen's pillow saying he'll be back by morning. He seems both cowed and relieved when they track him down before dawn has even fully broke and he grins in response to Shirayuki and Zen's anger at learning he was injured since he never before had anyone he trusted and cared for the way he does the two of them.


Added DiffLines:

* BareFistedMonk: Obi surprises Zen and Shirayuki when he slips away from them at a festival and enters a fighting competition under a name which he created in the past specifically for earning winnings from martial arts events. He wins, and has thus far proven unmatched in unarmed combat, but isn't crazy enough to go up against armed opponents without weapons of his own if he can avoid it and is always covered in hidden throwing knives with at least two daggers hanging at his belt. He has however shown that he can very quickly disarm a single opponent with a sword without any weapons of his own, and that was accidentally in a fight he was trying to ''lose''.
* BarehandedBladeBlock: A realistic take on this when Mitsuhide, who is not even wearing his trademark gambeson for armor at the time, traps a blade between his arm and side to disarm an opponent trying to assassinate Zen. It works to disarm the would be assassin but Mitsuhide doesn't get away unscathed and ends up requiring stitches.
* BathtubBonding:
** After getting caught in the rain while traveling Mitsuhide stays as a guard while Zen and Obi take a bath in the large bathroom at an inn. Shirayuki and Kiki also bathe together at the inn and while both pairs get a bit of time to just chat between the two of them Obi uses the time to mostly tease and fluster Zen, joking about peaking in on the girls and saying that now he'll be forced to picture Zen naked if Zen ever again says something about wanting his aides (including Obi) to be happy in life again now that he's done so while they were bathing.
** In Lyrias Shirayuki and Izuru are invited to a public bathhouse by Yuzuri to celebrate the success of the Olin Maris experiments, when Suzu hears about this he decides to bring the guys to the bathhouse as well in order to relax a bit and Obi, Ryuu and Kirito come along with him and the guys end up talking about their relationship prospects.
