The ''Japan Anima(tor)’s Exhibition'' (日本アニメ（ーター）見本市, otherwise known as ''Japan Animator Expo'') is a collaborative effort between Creator/StudioKhara, Dwango, and a host of other [[AllStarCast animating giants]] to make a collection of unique short films. Headed by ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' creator and director Creator/HideakiAnno, the goal is to “push the boundaries of what animation can do”-- in other words, every short just goes absolutely bonkers. From StopMotion to old production cels, to crazy music videos and {{Widget}}s, the ''Animator Expo'' aims to push the envelope and not only deviate from regular Japanese Animation, but to use it as a learning experience in animation experimentation from ideas both new and old.

* ArtStyleDissonance: ''I can Friday by Day!'' details a war for an important alloy and the poor relations between two opposing factions... shown in a deformed art style highly reminiscent of Sushio's other design works like ''Anime/KillLaKill'' and ''Anime/PantyAndStockingWithGarterbelt'', and about as stylishly as Take's work on ''LightNovel/{{Zaregoto}}''.

* DancingWithMyself: ''ENDLESS NIGHT'' has its only character, the protagonist boy, dancing on his own while he practices her ice dancing. A literal example of this happens near the end, where he pair skates with what is revealed to be an older version of himself.

* SiblingYinYang: Bubu and Bubulina from the short of the same name. Bubu is petite, colorful, has [[MegaTwintails enormous pigtails]], [[PokemonSpeak can only say her name]], and is [[NiceGirl a kind, thoughtful person.]] Her older sister Bubulina on the other hand is tall, keeps her hair hidden, wears all black, [[{{Jerkass}} is rude and selfish,]] and can speak full sentences to others.

* LivingToys: Se'chan of ''SEX and VIOLENCE with MACHSPEED'' is a sentient blow-up doll. While she can walk and talk, she has very limited movement and can't change her face.

* DownerBeginning AND DownerEnding: Shuu-chan in ''ME!ME!ME!'' begins and ends the short [[ThousandYardStare staring off at the wall]] in a depressed state, surrounded by Anime merchandise. It's only later on in the story when you find out ''why'' he's such a sad mess.

* ExactlyWhatitSaysOnTheTin: ''SEX and VIOLENCE with MACHSPEED'', despite being a character title, is just about that - instant sex and gratuitous violence in five minutes.

* EverythingsEvenWorseWithSharks: Machspeed. A HotBlooded, insatiable hardhead who causes more troubles than he solves.

* HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: The soldiers piloting the MobileSuitHuman in ''I can Friday by Day!''. Some of the characters in ''SEX and VIOLENCE with MACHSPEED''.

** The ending of ME!ME!ME! loops back to the beginning.

* HumongousMecha: ''Ragnarok'' is about three of these from Japan, Russia and the US getting into an all-out brawl with one another.

* {{Irony}}: ''Cassette Girl'''s stance on embracing old media and methods is animated using the very modern technique of 3D CGI.

* MeaningfulName: Mirai [[DiscussedTrope discusses]] the trope's usage between her and the protagonist Susumu (Future and Forward, respectively) in ''Ibuseki Yoruni''.

* MobileSuitHuman: ''I Can Friday by Day!'' has two of these as the main characters.
