* ActionSurvivor: Godou and Takt are otherwise normal humans that fight Blare. Godou to buy time for other people to evacuate, Takt along side the Verse Maidens. After excessive exposure, as well as having an apparently empowering effect on the girls, some characters begin to question just how normal Takt really is but eventually drop it due to records of pairing men with Verse Maidens to unknown effect in the past being known. [[spoiler: By the end it's revealed that Takt is [[NotQuiteHuman roughly 30% Blare]] due to an attack as a child and he goes further to 40% by draining Godou to cure him. Godou himself [[EmotionSuppression shows signs]] of [[EmpoweredBadassNormal being a Blare hybrid after his recovery]].]]

* FashionableAsymmetry: [[http://static.giantbomb.com/uploads/original/8/84290/2654130-c5_img1.jpg Aria's casual outfit]] in the most extreme levels. She wears a black stocking on her right leg, her ankle bows have mismatched colors (white on the right, black on the left), wears a wrist cuff on the right hand and a tulle sleeve on the left.

She wears a black stocking on her right leg, her ankle bows have mismatched colors (white on the right, black on the left), wears a wrist cuff on the right hand and a tulle sleeve on the left. A bit justified, since her appearance is meant to fit her [[CloudCuckoolander airheaded nature]] of her personality.


Added DiffLines:

** Aria started her career much earlier than the other four girls. However, she's happens to look younger than the other girls.

Added DiffLines:

** CrapsaccharineWorld: The bright and colorful aesthetic, combined with ShowDontTell, means it can [[FridgeHorror take a while]] before one realizes just how bad things are. The CityOfAdventure the game is based in is completely cut off from other hubs of civilization - and however many of them there are, it's not many. Governments have completely collapsed, taking currency with them; the populous survive on an EnergyEconomy. Mind-affecting Blare can appear anywhere without warning, and even if it's been cleared from an area, giant, vicious mutants remain. The city limps along thanks only to the efforts of teenage girls, the only ones capable of matching the mutants and clearing Blare. Most of the populous have fled, half are nuts and cling to Verse Maidens as they only hope they have; the other half are apathetic at best, nihilistic at worst. Takt suddenly gets a lot more sympathetic when you realize he's intended as a product of his environment, not a reasonless JerkAss.

Added DiffLines:

* MusicalThemeNaming
** Takt after German takt, meaning any kind of musical period like a measure or bar.
** Otoha after Japanese oto, meaning sound.
** Kanadeko after Japanese kanaderu, meaning to play an instrument.
** Nene after Japanese ne, meaning sound.
** Kyouka after Japanese kyouku, meaning a song or otherwise any type of musical selection.
** Aria after the English aria.

Aira\'s mental issues are not a spoiler, this is the first thing you find out about her

Added DiffLines:

* [[CallingTheOldManOut Calling The Old Woman Out]]: When Shiori goes one step too far in using Kyouka as a pawn in her spiteful popularity contest with Momoka, Kyouka lets her have it.


Added DiffLines:

* CloudCuckoolander: Aria was pegged as a space case from her reveal, but this is surprisingly PlayedForDrama. She's not just a StrangeGirl, but rather suffers from difficulty communicating and possibly cognitive interference after being overwhelmed by Blare.


Added DiffLines:

* GloryDays: Momoka and Shiori alike are both fighting a popularity contest for popularity neither of them are even entitled to anymore.
* InterserviceRivalry: Shiori personally trains Kyouka to humiliate the main office's Verse Maidens, and by extension Momoka. Ayumi gets fed up and ends it by fiat when she debuts all the girls as a quintet.


Added DiffLines:

* StageMom: Shiori is a variation, raising Kyouka as a solo Verse Maiden to try and show Momoka up by proxy. [[spoiler: When Kyouka points out her antic are risking people's lives, she [[HeroicBSOD locks up]].]]

** Going through the various [[ApocalypticLog records]] you find laying around, things were considerably worse once people realized there was a way to fight back but before the ''concept'' of Verse Maidens was introduced. Girls revealed to be capable of fighting off Blare would be abducted, experimented on, used as political bargaining chips, and forced to fight. Things began to improve when they started pushing the idol angle for PR but even then they're still lying to the girls about some details, such as the idea that popularity equals power not actually having much basis in reality, that they'd be better served with proper combat training over pushing for popularity.

* {{Expy}}, SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: A group of monsters in series centering around music that kill people and can only be harmed by a handful of people, The Beep sound strangely similar to [[Anime/SenkiZesshouSymphogear The Noise]].

Added DiffLines:

* IronicName: Takt starts the game utterly lacking in it.
* MistakenForGay: In order to make Takt's presence on the broadcasts non-threatening to the fans, Ayumi starts spreading this rumor about him. Takt doesn't push the issue - the alternative was crossdressing.
* SupportCharacter: Takt is attached to one Maiden at a time, following up their attacks or helping defend them.
* {{Tsundere}}: Takt is a RareMaleExample. While on the surface he's blunt, disconnected, and doesn't seem to give a damn about anything, when Otoha is genuinely in trouble, the heroics start without a second thought.
* WhatTheHellPlayer: Angling the dungeon camera for a PantyShot will [[spoiler:make the girl pull her skirt down and chew the player out]].
