* GrowingTheBeard: The final six episodes are more serious in tone (though not ''overly'' so), featuring a mythical entity called the [[BecauseDestinySaysSo Moment of Destiny]] that dramatically alters the leads' personalities, fates, and even their memories.
* LesYay: There's people who ship Risky and Safety as a couple, in spite of them not getting along the best. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zrWoZCkmpjc No, really]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWDCpHgCNPo (may contain spoilers)]].
** Also, Moe's friends Suzuko and Kotone. Come on, there ''has'' to be something going on there...
** As well as Risky and Kade. Seriously, Risky looks devastated when she tells the part of Kade falling for a Momotaro, she starts a full-scale ''war'' when she believes Kade has been kidnapped (let that sink in. Risky started an entire ''war'' to get ''one'' girl back home, and the girl isn't even royalty, or that important to the tribe), and believes Kade to be {{Brainwashed}} when hearing she's in love with Wakatake.
-->'''Risky:''' ''Bastard.'' You must have brainwashed her!
* {{Moe}}: [[MeaningfulName Moe]], of course. Applies to most of the cast, come to think of it.
* TearJerker: Fazzy's mini-arc. [[spoiler:Risky and Safety's seemingly-final goodbye to Moe.]]
* ViewerGenderConfusion: It's not obvious that Risky is female at first glance. Maybe that's why she's often [[LesYay shipped with Safety]]. Although some people still ship her with Safety, even ''after'' TheReveal...
** The dub was apparently confused too, referring to Risky as "he," "him" and as "Mister Shinigami" in a few episodes before switching to female pronouns after it was apparent she was a girl. This was done deliberately to preserve the surprise of TheReveal in the absence of the gender-neutral pronouns used in the Japanese version.
* TheWoobie: Fazzy, in her little arc. Arguably Moe as well.
