Be Careful What You Wish For: Previously, Ange had told her mother it was her greatest desire to serve the Misarugi empire and its people to the best of her extent. In the present, Jasmine points out that as a norma, Ange is pretty much fulfilling that dream, just not on the terms she wanted.
Brutal Honesty: Jill points out that the harsh conditions Ange was currently living through were because of the laws enacted by her own family who never raised a finger to help them, even though their own daughter was a norma herself.
The Dead Have Names: When normas die, their gravestones bear the true names their parents gave them, as though they've regained their names in death, as opposed to the serial numbers they're designated. This plays a part in Ange's morbid agreement to pilot Vilkiss, as she views her death as a chance to be "Angelisse" once more.
Everybody Has Standards: Although she comes across as cold-hearted, Jill will not stand to hear Ange write off the late Coco as "non-human" just because she's a norma, especially when the former princess caused her death.
Mid-Suicide Regret: Ange was previously willing to fight a DRAGON once more if it meant she could escape the collective pain in her life. But once she remembers her late mother's last wish for her to survive, she finds herself unwilling to die at the hands of the DRAGON while Vilkiss is within its jaws. Thankfully, its true power activating gives her a second chance to keep surviving.
"Not So Different" Remark: Zigzagged. When hearing that Coco recently turned 12 years old, Ange briefly reflects on how that makes Coco the closest thing to a little sister, since she was the same age as her kid sister Sylvia. Ange momentarily denies that a norma girl like Coco could ever compare to Sylvia, before a livid Jill invokes this trope by seething how Ange herself is no different than the next norma.
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Jill often comes across as a generally cold person who keeps her emotions in check. But during her conversation with Ange over the norma soldiers who died because of her desertion, Jill shows a brief instance of anger and disgust towards the ex-princess's overall attitude. For one, her voice has an edge when she completes Ange's sentence about how Coco was nothing like Sylvia because "she wasn't human". Second, she expresses disgust at Ange's denial over being a norma, despite her inability to use mana being glaring proof she's one of them. Lastly and more to the point, she lets her anger loose when she calls out Ange on how her reckless actions caused the needless death of three girls.
Original Position Fallacy: Discussed. Humans exile norma to an island in the middle of nowhere to act as indentured soldiers to protect their Crapsaccharine World and forget them. It's the way it's always been. Ange previously considered this entirely appropriate. But as Jill throws back in her face, the reason she's out here being treated as a prisoner for the crime of having no magic is because she and her people made the rules without consideration of how unfair it would be on the receiving end. In the grand scheme of things, Ange's own parents are guilty of this short-sighted mindset. They didn't help improve the normas' quality of living, even when they knew their own daughter was one. This heavily implies they lacked the foresight to realize this same terrible lifestyle would befall her if she was ever ousted.
Warts and All: On one hand, Zola wasn't the most moral person in life, as demonstrated with her previous actions towards Ange. Even Jasmine says as much during her wake when she admits Zola was a womanizer. But she's also the first to say that in spite of her unsavory traits, Zola did have redeeming qualities, her intelligence and protectiveness towards her charges among them.
What Is This Feeling?: Ange is conflicted that although it was in self-defense, she actually enjoyed killing the DRAGON, as it means she truly is as violent as everyone thinks normas are.
What the Hell, Hero?: Jill's conversation with Ange culminates with her calling her out on how her trying to leave the battlefield lead to Zola, Miranda and Coco dying untimely deaths, especially because she was still in denial of being a norma.
