!!Tropes:

* BrickJoke:
** After Kamarotti loses his voice, Phil reassures him that not everything is lost, and that with that type of voice he can still do great things. During the actual competition, we see Phil silently taking back those words upon hearing his performance with the new soprano voice.
** Amalia at the start (and middle) of the episode flaunts her singing skills. Then she sings the theme song over the credits, ending up a little off-tune and making the last note so high she [[CameraAbuse shatters the camera]].
* TheButlerDidIt: Played for laughs when Sadlygrove accuses (twice) the cook of being the criminal, because he got food poisoning. The actual Thief is Phil's grandson Aldwin, who serves at the Inn.
* DramaticUnmask: Parodied with the unmasking of the Thief of Voices, which has several, overly-dramatic reaction shot from both the protagonists and the random extras around before we finally see his face.
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: The reactions of Ruel, Dally and Yugo in the background during the interrogation scene, such as the former two grinning like idiots when Lady Glagla flirts with Yugo.
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar:
** When interrogated, Shanon Stone claims she was in the chamber of a friend, but asks them to not ask what she was doing there, because it's private... and for a good measure, she does the infamous uncrossing legs scene from ''Film/BasicInstinct''
** As mentioned below, Amalia's chest briefly dodge the SceneryCensor.
** he first singer ends his song with "And it's free!" while moving his... crotch area a little suggestively. When the camera cuts back to the judge, a few women in the background are clearly waving underwear at him.
** Lady Glagla's song is surprisingly suggestive...
* GreenEyedMonster: Turns out Aldwin became the Thief because he thought his father was wasting time on talentless people and that he deserved much better.
* EpicFail: Ruel's first plan is to use Junior's sense of smell to hound the criminal... but the track is spoilt by Dally spreading grease all over the place as he's eating.
* ExpansionPackPast: This is the episode where we learn that Ruel also used to be a "Precious Metal Singer" back with Phil Armonique. Too bad the two cannot even agree on what was the name of their band.
* HumanPopsicle: How the Thief of Voices is ultimately defeated thanks to Evangelyne.
* ImStandingRightHere: Dally accuses the chef of being the Thief... only for the chef to cough and tap him on the shoulder with an annoyed look.
* InterrogationMontage: The second step of Ruel's plan has he, Sadlygrove and Yugo taking turns in interrogating the competitors. Highlights include each different singer speaking in a different tune, reflecting their musical style.
* InstantSoprano: Thankfully not inflicted by a GroinAttack, Kamarotti goes from being a tenor to a soprano after his voice is stolen.
* {{Kawaiiko}}: Lady Glagla, an overly-cutesy singer with a pink outfit and a star motif resembling a Japanese Idol.
* LogicalWeakness: Since the gun of the Thief operates on sound, the Brotherhood wears wax earplugs in the final confrontation... [[HilarityEnsues except that Dally forgets to remove them.]]
* MakeMeWannaShout: The Thief of Voices uses a special gun to attack with paralyzing or destructive sound waves and steal the voice of people.
* MaleGaze: Lady Glagla's peformance opens with a close up of her shashaying derriere.
* NippleAndDimed: As a FreezeFrameBonus, Amalia's chest briefly dodges the SceneryCensor as she's sliding in the bathtube, showing a nipple.
* OcularGushers: Lady Glagla, when she believes Yugo thinks she's guilty, much to the latter's embarrassment.
-->'''Yugo''': "Look, if I say I believe you will you stop crying, please?"
* PrettyInMink: Shanon Stone's attire is complemented by a white fur rim around her shoulders.
* SceneryCensor: When a naked Eva slips into the pool, she's covered by a black rubber duck with the ''smuggest face conceivable'' passing in the foreground.
* ShoutOut: Most of the parecipants have punny names based on celebrities of music, such as Shanon Stone, Pandallica, Kamarotti and Lady Glagla.
* SomethingElseAlsoRises: When Lady Glagla remarks that Yugo is cute, the latter blushes while the "ears" of his hat suddenly rises.
* SympathyForTheDevil: As they leave the inn, Amalia express some sympathy for Aldwin, claiming that she knows how he feels like, since being an artist is hard.
* TheTease: Lady Glagla flirts with Yugo during the interrogation and later sends him a flirtatious blink during her performance.
* ThemeTuneCameo: The Sadida singer and later Grand Corp Petite sings part of the opening theme of Wakfu (the former collapsing before he can finish). Amalia sings the entire thing during the credits, if only slightly off tune.
* TooDumbToLive: When Kamarotti is interrogated by Dally he explains that he was on the stage when the Thief attacked him... and Dally promptly asks him what he was doing there on the stage... with Kamarotti patiently reminding him that 1) he was being attacked by the Thief, and 2) ''they were there too and saw everything'', leaving Dally flabbergasted.
* VaudevilleHook: The male Sadida singer collapses after a few notes and is dragged offstage by such an hook.
* VocalDissonance: Amalia and Kamarotti after losing their voices to the Thief, as well a the Osamodas singer Grand Corp Petite, who despite looking like a child has a very deep voice.
* WeUsedToBeFriends: Ruel and Phil Armonique were part of the same Metal Band... until they left over, as Ruel puts it, "artistic differencies".
* YouDidntAsk: Skribble plays this prank on the Brotherhood, leading them to the harbor of Machevile... which sunk years ago.
-->'''Evangelyne''': "Skribble, would you mind telling why you hid to us the fact that the harbor of Macheville has sunk?"
-->'''Skribble''': "Because you didn't ask. How was I supposed to know that you wanted a ''working'' harbor?"
