* MamaBear: Every mother in this story is an asskicker of some variety that can and ''will'' beat your ass into next Tuesday if you inflict bodily harm upon their children. Even surrogate parents, like how Undine is for Mermaid Heel, act this way. Kasumi in particular takes this trope UpToEleven with how much Kalina's well-being means to her. Of course, she, Nessa, ''and'' Alice have all shown their foes the kind of [[CurbStompBattle payment you get]] [[TooDumbToLive for messing with their children]].

Hell, even canon moms that weren't this trope have somehow become this trope [[spoiler:[[EstablishingCharacterMoment Isn't that right, Irene]]?]]

* AlwaysABiggerFish: Chapter 236, and just the Guild War arc in general, plays hard ball with this trope. Grand General Karn was always a big fish and is the stronges in Fiore, but he's second-in-command to Ishgar's strongest Rune Knight, Yamato Hayabusa. Later, VV becomes so almighty [[AGodAmI to the point of calling himself god]], it takes [[WildCard Acnologia]] showing up to prove that this trope is still in play. But even ''that'' isn't the end to this trope's usage. The immediate chapter after Acnologia shows up, [[spoiler:Irene Belserion]] shows up and proves she can hold her own against even the mighty black dragon. VV is still the smaller fish against this new arrival. [[spoiler:And he winds up dying to her when he realizes just how outclassed he was]]. However, then [[[spoiler:Irene]] leaves the battlefield. This then allows ''another'' fish in the pond to start causing trouble: [[spoiler:currently bonkers out of her gourd, Kallen due to trying to merge her demon soul and dragon soul together while under the effects of Mass Hysteria. Irene had kept her sedated, for lack of a better term, while she was in the area, but once she left, Kallen resumed turning the newly restored Era into the aftermath of a nuclear bomb going off]]. And ''even then'', Natsu is being utilized as the counter to this big fish by being hyped up on Etherion, courtesy of Lelouch, so he can use Dragon Force. Good god, Rube Goldberg machines are less complex than this.

* HumiliationConga: Happens to [[BreakTheHaughty Audrey Belladona]]. First she's utterly beaten by Kallen for attacking one of her teammates, later Sting sucker punches her in the face for trying to pin the blame on him. She's then submitted to Jiemma's ShamefulStrip and expelled from Sabertooth. When she becomes a dark mage intending to join Cracked Gemstone, Legretta [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown beats the tar out of her]] for traumatizing Wanda and nearly killing Clarice, then she's sent to prison. And finally Clarice convinces her to give her information about Cracked Gemstone by helping her get off death row. Next time we see her she has mellowed out a bit and has even learned a more benevolent magic.

* CaptainErsatz: Because fanfiction.net only allows stories where two series can be crossed over, the writer employs this trope to get a lot of characters from other series involved in all but name the same way the Anime/CodeGeass characters are involved. While some original characters are simply [[{{Expy}} similar rather than identical]]. The following are basically the same character. To wit:
** From Fighting Spirit:
*** Rorix Graymare, Chandra Graymare, and Vanessa Graymare are [[VideoGame/EndlessFrontier Haken Browning, Aschen Brodel, and Kaguya Nanbu]].
*** Selina Victoria, Renji Blake, Vixie Blake, and Leaf Valentine are [[VideoGame/ProjectXZone Saya, Reiji, Xiaomu and Sheath]].
*** Orochi Bahn, Shimon Ikari and Chikara Rasenhime are [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Kamina, Simon, and Nia Tepplin]].
*** Juren Rakkan is [[Manga/MahouSenseiNegima Jack Rakan]].
** From Serpent's Heart:
*** Shura Sunshine and Henry Ichifira are [[VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening Tharja and Henry]].
** Nocturnal Falcon and Frozen Jaguar's main group, with the exception of Sakura Menjou, are all based on the characters from Night Raid and the Jaegers from Manga/AkameGaKill.
** Phoebe Amethyst and Sabrina Sapphire are [[VideoGame/HyruleWarriors Cia and Lana]] with Cia's obsession with Link replaced by Phoebe's obsession with [[MyHeroZero Zero]].
** Howling Wolf, in addition to having Sayoko on the team, brings us Kyle Regent, Elizabeth Saturn and Lucas Senshiro. Or, in other words, [[VideoGame/TalesOfVesperia Yuri Lowell, Judith, and Flynn Scifo]].
** This was outright ''invoked'' with regards to Cracked Gemstone so that the author could get a WholePlotReference. Ember Garnet, James J. Teakwood, Vanilla S. Chocolate, Cain Bloodstone, Jade Juniper, and Platinum Stardust are all [[WebAnimation/{{RWBY}} Cinder Fall, Roman Torchwick, Neo, Adam Taurus, Emerald Sustrai, and Mercury Black]]. The only ''real'' change is that Cain is a machina where as Adam Taurus is a faunas.
** Related to the above, Phoenix Grave gives us Wanda Rose, Legretta Upton, Heidy Orenstein, and Clarice Spay as iterations of [[WebAnimation/{{RWBY}} Team RWBY]]. And Pyrrha Amakusa, Nancy Abaddon, and Jin Tobias are Pyrrha Nikos, Nora Valkyrie, and Lie Ren.
** Among the Rune Knights we have:
*** Phelia Blendy and Senshiro Izanami as [[Manga/{{Naruto}} Sakura and Sasuke]].
*** Amber Celadon as [[VideoGame/BlazBlue Noel Vermillion]].
*** Kurena Menjou as [[Anime/KillLaKill Ryuko Matoi]].
*** Adrian Bluecorn as [[Manga/{{Freezing}} Arnett McMillan]].
** Atarella Kozuki, Enna Elsa, Alysha Fateburn and Travis Fateburn are Granberia, Alipheese Fateburn the 16th, Alma Elma, and Luka from ''Monster Girl Quest''.
** Tristan is this of [[VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends Gnar]] from the orange fur down to the growth issues.
** If a character isn't listed here, then it's because they only resemble the character they're based on and are listed below under Expy.



* {{Expy}}: Way too many to list, but they are in abundance here. The most early example is the Black Cats of Midnight to the point where even their interaction with Kallen bears a striking resemblance to [[Anime/SwordArtOnline the Black Cats of the Full Moon]].
** The only way the character [[HotBlooded Orochi]] [[LargeHam Bahn]] is based off of could be more obvious is if had a flashing neon sign dangling over his head that said {{Expy}} of [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Kamina]].

** The
this story, some only way resemble the character [[HotBlooded Orochi]] [[LargeHam Bahn]] is their based off on. Take note:
** Airy Kitsune borrows [[VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends Ahri's]] looks, but Airy is TheDitz while Ahri is TheVamp.
** Sindel ''started'' as a CaptainErsatz
of could be Syndra in her initial appearance, but with CharacterDevelopment sinking in, she's more obvious or less this. Not to mention Sindel's values system is if had a flashing neon sign dangling over way different given she grew up in Fairy Tail.
** While Undine keeps up the pirate talk, her background and [[TeamMom personality]] make her too distinct to do anything more than resemble [[VideoGame/EndlessFrontier Anne Sirena]].
** Kasumi is actually this of other works done by the same author.
** Asura Kaimen may resemble [[VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia Kratos Aurion]] in personality and appearance, but
his head that said {{Expy}} other traits such as background and actions clearly contradict his counterpart.
** As the writer has never played VideoGame/ShiningForce, Rena Sianne only borrows Riemsianne La Ves' appearance and nothing more.
** Alice and Archer are [[LightNovel/FateApocrypha Red Assassin and Shirou Kotomine]]. However, the goals
of [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Kamina]].both and actions taken by them make them far more of good people than their counterparts. Also, Alice's...[[AmbiguousDisorder behavior]] is definitely different from Semiramis'.
** Priscilla Starkwing was created with the idea of being [[VideoGame/TalesOfSymphonia Presea Combatir]], but older in terms of appearance and her personality is nothing like Presea's.
** Jace Highwind and Leana Verundum from Kraken's Eye borrow appearances from [[TabletopGames/MagicTheGathering Jace Beleren and Liliana Vess]]. However, Jace is a CassanovaWannabe ButtMonkey, while Leana is decisively far less evil and interested in necromancy. In addition, Nessa Revenati is Nissa Revane.
** While her sister Kurena blatantly rips off Ryuko, Sakura Menjou more or less simply resembles [[Anime/KillLaKill Satsuki Kiryuin]].
** From the Rune Knights:
*** Bolt Naikara and Peshkatz Fireman are this of [[VideoGame/MetalGearRisingRevengeance Raiden and Jetstream Sam]].
*** Judas Crossbolt is this of [[Manga/{{Bleach}} Yhwach]] and Tony Wolfe is Coyote Stark.
*** Saigara Daishogu resembles [[Manga/{{Inuyasha}} Sesshomaru]].
*** Sean Exodus borrows his appearance and WarriorPoet nature from [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII Genesis Rhapsody]].
*** Siegfried Karn resembles [[LightNovel/FateApocrypha Saber of Black]].
*** Yamato Hayabusa's powers and appearance are borrowed from [[VideoGame/AsurasWrath Asura]], but he is ''way'' to calm to be everyone's favorite [[TheBerserker Berserker]].

[[spoiler:Chapters 231 and 232 practically gut punched the entire fanbase by having VV unleash a spell that made all allies forget which side their on and only care about victory and the results are clear]]. With how brutal some of these fights are getting, you get the feeling the creator is [[TrollingCreator taunting the fanbase for wanting such a thing]].
** Fans have been outright demanding Lelouch go Dragon Force for arcs on end. Well, in chapter 232, we got it. [[spoiler:Except Lelouch is under VV's influence and this moment ''clearly'' isn't a moment of rejoicing, but rather a moment of [[OhCrap "Oh, Shit!"]] because Lelouch is clearly starting to become unhinged like his [[FutureMeScaresMe evil self from the future]]]]. Once again, you feel like Draconichero [[TrollingCreator is taunting us all]].
