* {{Fanservice}}: Quite rare. It's mainly used during conversations the writers think are boring, though SceneryPorn is used more often.
** The BeachEpisode, albeit mixed with even more FanDisservice.
** Wendy and Clark wringing their clothes after walking in the rain, while having a long conversation recapping events.



* GenderNeutralNarrator: Subverted. The captioner is revealed to be a woman when she gets angry at Eliza for {{Wangst}}ing over her pain. She floods the screen with complaints, one of them being that she gave birth to six children.



* GirlyBruiser: Wendy does a lot of housekeeping and [[FeminineWomenCanCook likes cooking]] as well as defeating monsters on a weekly basis.



* LemonyNarrator: The captioner. She's disgruntled, alcoholic, and indifferent to the events of the story, often goes off on unusual tangents, and is actually [[spoiler:revealed to be Wendy grown up]].



* OnceKilledAManWithANoodleImplement: Cromwell supposedly robbed over half of Fort Knox using only a plastic spoon and an origami crane. [[spoiler:The actual story is much, ''much'' more complicated [[TearJerker and depressing]]]].



* TotallyRadical: One of the monsters is one who tries to appeal to kids by using slang ''[[UpToEleven from the 1920's]]''.
