5	* AccidentalInnuendo: Dialogue in the first chapter (1st episode of anime) has one, when in response to a phrase Linze "a rare man can maintain the pace of my sister," Touya answers "I'm sorry, but I was just nervous".
6	* ClicheStorm: Let's face it: you have already seen the settings of this world many times in other works, especially if you're familiar with light novels or anime based on them.
7	* CompleteMonster: [[TheChessmaster Yula]] is the accomplished strategist of [[Characters/InAnotherWorldWithMySmartphonePhrasia the Phrase]], being responsible for the multiversal Phrase invasion, who desires to conquer and destroy worlds he encounters, while seeking for a power even more powerful than the Sovereign Phrase so he can usurp the Pantheon and [[MultiversalConqueror rule the whole multiverse]] as he sees fit. After Melle travelled through various worlds, Yula uses this opportunity to wreak insurmountable havoc against countless kingdoms and empires he visits, including the [[Characters/InAnotherWorldWithMySmartphoneParthenoCivilization Partheno]] Sacred Empire, which led to the complete annihilation of the ancient civilization, leaving a significant, long-lasting impact in the current civilization. Yula allies with the exiled God, the Servile God, in the creation of a powerful vessel known as the Wicked God. Eventually, Yula [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder betrays the latter]] by absorbing the God into the vessel, which led to the Wicked God's awakening, before absorbing countless mortal beings into the vessel to empower it. Yula and the Wicked God then stage a massive, full-scale invasion on the merged Western and Eastern Continents with his entire army of Mutant Phrases in a last-ditch effort to burn and destroy the world, while being content on razing anything in his path. Yula then imprisons Touya inside [[PocketDimension Niflheim]], so he can [[ForcedToWatch force Touya to watch]] his friends, allies, and family getting slaughtered by the Mutant Phrase, so he could gloat all over his ruthless scheming and wanting anyone to bow over him [[AGodAmI once he rules over them]].
8	* EscapistCharacter: Touya fits this to the most insane degree.
9	** He has an affinity for all seven elements of magic, can learn any Null magic, and has borderline superhuman physical and mental abilities.
10	** [[spoiler:He is the master of all four Heavenly Beasts.]]
11	** [[spoiler:He eventually gets a harem of currently 9 actual wives and 10 gynoid suitors.]]
12	** [[spoiler:A scientist over 5000 years in the past created giant islands in the sky, just for him, that were guarded by 9 gynoids that were tailor-made for his preferences.]]
13	** [[spoiler:Eventually becomes Grand Duke of his own state in the continent, the most powerful global player, and leader of an ever-growing global alliance against the Fraze and rogue states.]]
14	** [[spoiler:The TopGod, the Love Goddess, and several other gods that show up from time to time or join his household in disguise willingly provide him and his wives advice, favors, or training; he himself is evolving into a demigod.]]
15	** [[spoiler:He eventually become the managing god of his new world with hints of eventually becoming a successor of the World god or The Destruction god.]]
16	* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: Less love, and more dislike less, but Japanese fans were surprised that the general consensus on this, among western fans, wasn't less than the mid-60s.
17	* GrowingTheBeard: Early on, the series pulled a solid 4.5 stars per episode (and 3.5 stars overall), demonstrating that while viewers were overall liking the show, there were still major issues and reservations. Then [[WhamEpisode Episode 11]] hit, and scored an average of five stars with over 900 reviewers on Crunchyroll. Introducing Babylon, upping the {{Fanservice}} with Francesca, and making definitive progress in the romance subplot sparked interest, and viewers were finally becoming invested in the show. Episode 12 also ended on a particularly high note, with fans shocked that the show delivered on its MarryThemAll premise. The fact that Elze and Yae hand Touya his first defeat in battle was also well-received.
18	* SugarWiki/MostWonderfulSound:
19	** The OneWomanWail every time Touya casts a magic spell.
20	** When Yumina claps her hands together, it means she's taking charge of the situation and making all the parties act like adults.
21	* RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap: Touya was quite unloved among the readers of the original novel because of his initial extreme ObliviousToLove. [[GrowingTheBeard Until Episode 11]]...
22	* SequelDisplacement: The novel is actually a part of the CanonWelding from the author's previous work ''Literature/ChronoCrown'', which serves as the chronologically canon prequel to ''Smartphone'', happening before Touya's arrival. While it has a lot of important characters like Norn and Black Crown Noir that actually appeared in ''Smartphone'', as well as many references to the Reverse World like the existence of Gollems and their history, they are all deeply rooted from ''Chrono Crown'' prior to the [[CanonWelding welding]]. It's an obvious reason why Norn, Noir, the Red Cats, Dorf and the First Lieutenant and Sergeant are actually [[CanonCharacterAllAlong canon characters all along]] and ''not'' mere first encounters to Touya, since they have already been established as characters of the previous novel. But due to its obscurity, many western readers are unaware of Chrono Crown being the chronological prequel to the novel.
23	* SoBadItsGood: Complete lack of conflict, flawless main character and the maximum possible number of cliches for the genre? Some people find it so cheap that it makes the adaptation magical. Even the cheap animation and simple art style has been likened to that of a late 90s anime making it charmingly retro compared to the slick vector, digital and CGI animation many other shows use.
