* {{Foil}}: Simone can be considered one to Theo in regards to their reasons for going to Thannanaya. Theo doesn't want to accept the possibility that he might lose his beloved grandfather and wants to find a way to save him. Simone has already lost her parents some time ago and is trying to move on, her reason for insisting on going with Theo to Thannanaya being that she just wants to check in on her parents to make sure they're doing okay in the afterlife.
* ForWantOfANail: Discussed when Simone talks to Theo about the day her parents died, explaining that she was playing hide and seek with them before the accident. Simone admits that she has since thought about how if she had either left her hiding spot sooner, or stayed there just a little longer, the accident might not have happened.

Adding mention of the new trope "The Journey Through Death".
Added DiffLines:
* TheJourneyThroughDeath: Anyone who enters a coma or other state of unconsciousness before death will travel through the magical land of Thannanaya to enter whatever comes after (it's never directly confirmed whether there is an afterlife or not, though the series implies it's a SelfInflictedHell). It's not made clear whether people who die more suddenly go to Thannanaya or not.

After Theo sets things right and M.C. recovers, it is unclear if he remembers anything of what happened in Thannanaya, but when Theo and Simone check up on him in the hospital, it's clear that the experience left an impact as he apologizes to Theo for the whole "julekalender" thing.]]

* DontFearTheReaper: Throughout the show, Theo and Simone keep hearing from Thannanaya's other inhabitants of how scary Thanna is and how they don't want to anger her.

Theodor is a young boy who is being bullied at school. He has a close bond with his grandfather, Harald, and is helping him try to finish a painting of Thannanaya, another world that Harald believes people travel through when they reach the end of their life to get ready to die. However, when Harald falls off a ladder, and ends up in a coma soon after, Theo refuses to accept the possibility of losing his grandfather. He discovers that a special talisman allows him to travel to Thannanaya through the fireplace in his grandfather's house, and along with Simone, a new girl in his school, he travels through Thannanaya in hopes of finding a way to save his grandfather.
But is trying to meddle with the natural order of things in Thannanaya really such a good idea?
