9''Circumstances of the Revenant Braves'' is a {{webcomic}} about a young man named Kanzaki Kei and the trials and tribulations he faces after meeting a strange girl named Aoyama Fio. It is drawn in the style of {{anime}} and {{manga}} and employs a variety of tropes and staples from several anime genres, most notably romantic high-school comedy and {{shonen}}.
10
11As the story begins, [[OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent average high-schooler]] Kei is chosen for an unknown reason by a girl named Fio to help her start a club dedicated to "helping others" without any specific focus. Reluctant but unsure why, he joins her. It isn't long after this that he accidentally gets imbued with super powers originally meant for her and has to literally fight his own and other people's inner demons, called 'Vices', that feed off a person's good nature.
12
13Soon others join the group as well and their diverging personalities have to try to get along in between solving problems, fighting monsters, and attending high-school.

23%%* ByThePowerOfGrayskull: "Awaken!"
24* CallingYourAttacks: Gensai is particularly fond of this, and usually the attack he yells out is a {{Homage}} to different series.
25* CombatCommentator: {{Lampshaded}} by Fio when Sol is being CaptainObvious and talking too much during a fight.
26* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Sol can be one of these at times, as Kei points out, ". . . and god knows what Gensai's thinking."
27%%* DeadpanSnarker: Kei, both outloud and as {{Narrator}}.

38* HitodamaLight: The form Musashimaru takes when on the physical plane.
39%%* {{Homage}}: As well as {{Shoutout}}s, these run rampant.

50%%* OurSoulsAreDifferent
51%%* TheRant
52%%* {{Samurai}}: Musashimaru, Pyrus
53* SchizoTech:
54** Initially seen as a normal, modern setting, the {{Verse}} is soon shown to contain airships, which are viewed as a rare sight, but not completely absurd. You may also notice there are almost no cars.
55** Handguns [[http://www.revenant-braves.schala.net/0291.html are considered]] LostTechnology.

59%%* StraightMan: Kei.
60%%* SwordFight
61* ThemeNaming: With a few exceptions, the character names are all Japanese surnames with Western given names.
62* TimeDissonance: Musashi, in particular, brings up the length of time he's lived and its relation to human existence. Also averted when Mecha claims a week feels like an eternity when separated from Musashi.
63%%* TrueCompanions: "Comrades".
64%%* {{Tsundere}}: Fio and arguably Kei's mother, Lilith.
65%%* UnsoundEffect: [[http://www.revenant-braves.schala.net/0296.html "KER-CUTE"]]
66%%* UpgradeArtifact: The spirits are essentially this.
67* WeAreAsMayflies: Both ancient spirits and vices can live for an eternity.
