Moments later he escapes because he doesn't want to end up in jail, after all, [[RealityEnsues a murder it's still a crime.]] Daniel collapses in a back alley, where he's found by [[RebelLeader Rouge]], and contracted to fight against the country dictatorship, [[AnOfferYouCantRefuse after deliberating]], he reluctanctly accepts.

* TheirFirstTime: At the end of chapter 7 between Daniel and Anahi, Subverted with Daniel, he wasn't a virgin before doing it with her. She's happy that her first time was with someone who loved her, [[and not some random guy while she's passed out and drunk or drugged, much to his horror.

* ArtEvolution: A {{Downplayed}} variant, when it started, it had a crude and somewhat off sense of coloring, a year later it got a complete overhaul with more pleasant hues.

* ForegoneConclusion: The first pages show a flashback in the year 2052 in which Anahí and Daniel break up. How? Well, the flashback will tell us how it happens...

* LatinoIsBrown: The entire cast so far is shown to be mixed, while one could argue that the characters are white, they're all Latinos, Argentina is called Melting Pot for a reason. The named characters that play this straight are [[DarkSkinnedRedhead Anahí]] and [[RebelLeader Rouge]], so far.

''Aqua Regia'', formerly known as ''Acid Rain'', is an Argentinian cyberpunk comic published through Website/{{INKR}}. The setting is a fairly typical {{Cyberpunk}}, set in Argentina which has been on a dictatorship since the seventies (and counting).

* BarbarianLongHair: Daniel's mane, which in-story is considered very odd, apparently is a TakeThat against the overused undercuts in the Western influenced cyberpunk characters.

* {{Fanservice}}: Downplayed, but still present. Although, the promo images of [[MaleGaze Rouge ass]], and [[FemaleGaze Daniel taking a shower]] are totally this.

--->"After you're consumed by "MR", you're pretty much a zombie, he's done for, he has no reasoning, only moves by adrenaline injected into his nervous system, he's [[DeadlyEuphemism burned out]]"

* BilingualBonus: Machina Revoltare, Machina is self-explanatory, it's for machines, but Revoltare can be translated from Romanian as rebel, but in tandem, it means "Revolting Machine". Fitting for overpowered technology that does more harm than good to the user.

* Dystopia: The entire setting.
* GreyAndGrayMorality: Let's see, we have a totalitarian government that has people eating on the palm of their hands, but still "safe", a VigilanteMan that means well but it's equally deranged by the people he hunts down, and a CEO that is willing to do sacrifices, even sacrifice herself, for [[TheNeedsOfTheMany the greater good]].

* NeonCity: Mohron on the first episode, but not overtly shown due the fact it's plain day, thus making it a much more CityNoir example.

* PerfectlyCromulentWord: Machina Revoltare, Machina is self-explanatory, it's for machines, but Revoltare can be translated from Romanian as rebel, but in tandem, it means "Revolting Machine". Fitting for overpowered technology that does more harm than good to the user.

* StreetSamurai: Daniel is inspired by the archetype.

* OurZombiesAreDifferent: They're normal people with cybernetic implants that produce energy, due the fact that they're faulty unless they're kept in check, they end up having them starting to desfigurate the person in question and frying their brains, only the electric shocks and adrenaline segregations are what keeps them moving, making them walking corpses, Daniel states as such in the second chapter:
--->"After you're consumed by "MR", you're pretty much a zombie, he's done for, he has no reasoning, only moves by adrenaline njected into his nervous system, he's [[DeadlyEuphemism burned out]]"

* BodyHorror: What defective and overheated Machina Revoltare does.

* NeonCity: Morón on the first episode, but not overtly shown due the fact it's plain day, thus making it a much more CityNoir example.

[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/01flash.jpg]]

* AdultFear: It's part of the premise, the nightmare of the author, and the story is not overly implausible when it comes to setting at least.

* NeonCity: Morón on the first episode, but not overtly shown due the fact it's plain day, thus making it a much more CityNoir, ironically enough.

Moments later he escapes because he doesn't want to end up in jail, after all, [[RealityEnsues a murder it's still a crime.]] Daniel collapses in a back alley, where he's found by [[RebelLeader Nimsi]], and contracted to fight against the country dictatorship, [[AnOfferYouCantRefuse after deliberating]], he reluctanctly accepts.

* {{Cyborg}}: One of the thieves at least, among several other people. Nimsi has ElectronicEyes for example. It's been pointed out in-universe that only the army and very wealthy people can afford it, so cyborgs are not something that's seen much in the city.

* {{Fanservice}}: Downplayed, but still present. Although, the promo images of [[MaleGaze Nimsi's ass]], and [[FemaleGaze Daniel taking a shower]] are totally this.

* ArtEvolution: Compared to how it started, the artist improved massively after honing his skills after 5 years. It also has the added bonus of being in full color and it can look pretty when it wants to.

* BananaRepublic: Like the original, Argentina has been in a dictatorship over 60 years.
* BarbarianLongHair: Daniel's mane and [[PeekABangs emo hair]] is a solid part of his design a this point.
* BloodierAndGorier: Due the place in which is published it'll be uncensored most of the time
* ContinuityReboot: As per the new contract. Only to die again? And once again being revived.

* {{Cyborg}}: One of the thieves at least, among several other people.

* HellBentForLeather: All the way. The first chapter even is called "[[Music/JudasPriest Leather Rebel]]".

* UpdatedReRelease: Six months after the first upload of the comic on Manga Rock, the comic was re-released on Facebook with a new coat of paint with much flashier colors and corrected drawings trying to avert OffModel.
