YMMV: Ayreon
  • Alternate Character Interpretation:
    • Forever of the Stars: A harsh but fair alien mind who does what he must to help his people and guides the humans who really earned their freedom out of the Castle? Or a psychopathic inscrutable presence putting the characters through Hell for kicks?
    • In general the Forever get this treatment by parts of the fandom: A race of nigh-immortal beings who try to save humanity and themselves the best way they can, or a group of Starfish Aliens who only created humanity to farm for their emotions?
  • Awesome Ego: The Barbarian. A complete Jerk Ass who only cares for his own glory? You'd better believe it. Fails to learn anything from the experience and is still as unsympathetic as he started? Pretty much. But he's got an awesome voice, constantly goes on over the top Hammy speeches about the battles he's won and how glorious he is, and basically steals the scene whenever he sings.
  • Crowning Music of Awesome - A lot of it.
  • Ear Worm: How "Day Eleven: Love" managed to avoid becoming a hit is a question for the ages.
    • Dr. Slumber's Eternity Home...
    • Eviiiiiiiiiiiiil Deeeeeeeeeeeevoooooooooluuuuuuuuuution...
  • Ensemble Darkhorse: The Hippie.
    • All the emotions from the Human Equation, Agony and Fear in particular.
  • Fridge Brilliance: The emotions are personified and amplified into actual sentient beings rather than mere aspects of Me's personality because the program simulating Me's situation is designed for the purpose of examining raw emotion.
  • Most Wonderful Sound: Dream Sequencer System Online...
  • Narm: Very frequently.
  • Narm Charm: It's usually so awesome, you don't care.
  • Needs More Love: Though not exactly unknown in the Metal community at large, it's pretty obscure everywhere else.
  • The Woobie: Most protagonists and quite a few other characters qualify, but Me from the Human Equation is the most prominant..
