* LawOfInverseFertility: A flashback showed that exposure to Cherno's radioactive core made Sasha and Aleksis unable to have kids, which is part of why they care so much about Cherno like a son.



* ObstructiveBureaucrat: The higher-ups in the PPDC still cling to their beliefs that the Anti-Kaiju Wall is all they need and that the Jaeger Program should be shut down, and only reluctantly give the Hong Kong Shatterdome enough money to keep functioning for a time. Later, when they find out the Jaegers are alive and sentient, they immediately demand they be shut down and destroyed. When met with refusals and the discovery that far more people are in support of the Jaegers, they immediately pull the Shatterdome's remaining funding. [[spoiler: By the epilogue, said bureaucrats have been removed and replaced with a new group, who are in favor of the Jaegers and are doing everything they can to support them, including having the Wall of Life dismantled and the Shatterdomes refurbished and reopened.]]

* ApocalypseCult: The Kaiju cultists believe the kaiju are harbingers of the apocalypse and are to be treated as holy, and that their masters are gods who are punishing mankind because they deserve it. They also regard the rest of humanity as children throwing a tantrum instead of accepting "righteous punishment", and view the Jaegers as abominations. Consequently, they try to sabotage the PPDC's efforts, up to and including the Jaegers.
* CargoCult: There's one on an island in the South Pacific that worships the Jaegers, even before they turn out to be alive. [[spoiler: When Striker Eureka's head turns up, they turn it into a shrine. [[StopWorshippingMe He is not amused by this.]] Fortunately, their reverence of Jaegers means that when Crimson Typhoon personally asks for his friend back, they agree.]]
