* {{Tearjerker}}: Oh wow, even with all the BlackComedy, there's still genuinely sobering moments.
** During the "Bookend" arc, Harry's best friend, Marley, gets cornered by the former, who demands to know where Morth is and why he wants the bookend. Before Marley can say why, he's shot dead by one of Morth's agents, who manages to get away with the bookend (albeit with Virus having attached a tracker to it so the gang can still follow him). By the time the dust settles, Harry snaps at Virus for it, but calms down when Virus reveals why he did. Then they turn to Marley's dead body, with the two of them looking very upset.
** The "Tangled Web" arc has a RunningGag of Harry being insanely terrified of spiders, even hallucinating a rotted tree as a spider demon lurching his way. And when they do meet the daemon princess proper, Harry eventually feels DrivenToSuicide... but his gun doesn't work. Despite being played for comedy, it's surprisingly humanizing of a guy who's otherwise ripe for humor at his expense.
*** Further, near the end, Harry takes a moment to sit down. In a major inversion of the norm, Leyana decides to put the moves on him, even though he's clearly traumatized. He outright begs Virus for help, and Sebastian bails him out by telling Leyana to leave him alone. You know it's sad when even a recurring pervert like Harry doesn't take well to being flirted with by someone who actually wants to tease him.

* WhatAnIdiot:
** Cultists of the Ocean God wanting to start a ritual to summon their master so he can TakeOverTheWorld. The trouble is, the spell to summon the Ocean God is written in a language that none of them know how to read.\\
'''You'd Expect''': The cultists would find out how to read the language, delaying the ritual for some time, or finding someone sympathetic to their plight to translate it for them. Or, if they find someone who knows the language but won't cooperate, force them to translate it. Since they are insane cultists of a MadGod, it's not like they're high on the mortality food chain, which they themselves admit.\\
'''Instead''': The cultists ask members of the Mobian Inquisition to translate it for them. The Inquisition who is sworn to protecting the world from dark gods just like the one the cultists are trying to summon. The only reason the cultists aren't arrested is because the Inquisitors trick the cultists into completely screwing up the ritual, sending them all into another dimension with no way back.

Misuse of trope. The YMMV page is for tropes that are themselves YMMV tropes. Not for regular tropes that people disagree on whether they fit.
