It was one of the most popular quests on QQ, but is now on hiatus.

* AGodAmI: Averted and subverted. Ddraig and Bright both encourage Issei to think this way, as his Exaltation grants him the authority the Unconquered Sun bestowed on his chosen. [[AGodIAmNot Issei disagrees]], and then Bright reveals that she agrees with him, and that she had [[SecretTestOfCharacter other motives]] for making the suggestion.
* ALadyOnEachArm: Issei, to the considerable jealousy of every straight male in sight of him.

* BelatedBackstory: Issei's excuse for his sudden upgrade to Bishonen is one for his classmates.

* DefeatMeansFriendship: Subverted by [[spoiler:most of the Fallen Angels, who still have a grudge against Issei, despite being allies. Played straight by [[{{TheBerserker}} Shougo Kitsukawa]], who joins up with Issei after being beaten.]]

* FantasticNatureReserve: Gensokyo.

* HorsemenOfTheApocalypse: In this setting, they were a group of half-human half-angels that fought in the last Great War. Each of them wielded four Sacred Gears which are collectively known as the Magnus. Their successors are the WebAnimation/{{RWBY}} girls, although only Ruby and Yang have appeared so far. Ruby's Crescent Rose is Death's Scythe, while Yang's Ember Celica is War's Gauntlets. [[spoiler: Later on, Azazel gives them the actual horses (which are themselves part of the Magus).]]

** WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}: Ruby and Yang appear as Sacred Gear wielders. It's hinted that Weiss and Blake will show up eventually.

** ''VideoGame/{{Touhou}}'': [[spoiler: Mittelt]]'s grandmother is [[PintsizedPowerhouse Suika Ibuki]], of all people. Gensokyo itself exists, and is one of Issei's quest goals - to find living dragons to teach him dragon powers.

* TheMasquerade: There are groups that keep the super natural elements hidden from the normal people, one of these groups is The History Compilation Committee.

* ''{{Omniglot}}'': Issei originally spoke only Japanese, but thanks to his Exaltation now he can also speak all the Indo-European Languages Family.

** An encounter with a pack of thugs shortly after his Exaltation ends with Issei scaring them off while borrowing [[{{LightNovel/Durarara}} Shizuo Heiwajima]]'s "You can't complain, right?!" PreAsskickingOneLiner.

** When Issei is having a discussion with Ddraig, about Issei being useless before his exaltation, he say the famous line "the cake is a lie" from "VideoGame/{{Portal}}"

* TouchedByVorlons: Issei, as part of the changes Boosted Gear has gone through, has the ability to temporarily grant others a portion of his [[{{ShowyInvincibleHero}} Solar-ness.]] See also SuperEmpowering.

* UnexpectedCharacter: [[spoiler: Characters from VideoGame/SenranKagura.]]

* TookALevelInKindness: Not that Issei wasn't a perfectly nice person to begin with, but his “get a harem” motivation had the edge taken off of it by certain events in the first arc, which lead him to rephrase it to Yang as something more akin to “make girls happy.”

* WorldOfBadass: By WordOfGod, everyone and everything kicks ass and has at least a "badass" trope.

* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Bright Shattered Ice, the remnants of the previous bearer of Issei's exaltation and one of his two mentors.

* BreakTheHaughty: Raynare.

** ''Exalted'': Also obviously. It's setting is considered to be an AlternateUniverse from ''DxD'''s setting. As of now, the only thing that's popped up is Issei's Exaltation and the past life inside of it, though it's been hinted that may change.

* BrickJoke: [[spoiler: When Issei told Kiba about the Daiklaves, Kiba finds the idea absurd, and made a bet of eating a hat - with ketchup - if Issei finds a Daiklave and a way to use it effectively; a lot of chapters later Issei does finds a Daiklave, uses it to ''kick ass'', and Kiba starts chewing on a hat and asking for ketchup.]]

--->'''Issei''': Being small and cute! Dressing like a girl! No way! No way! No way! Listen well Gasper Vladi-kohai! My name is Issei Hyodo, second year! My job is to do the impossible!

* [[spoiler:SuperEmpowering: Issei develops the ability to turn others into [[{{Semidivine}} Solar Half-Caste]], including non-humans. Note that this is something you can't normally do in ''Exalted''; [[SerialEscalation Issei has reached a level beyond Glorious Solar Bullshit]]. And as if that wasn't enough, Issei is on the verge of adapting the Evil Piece system to create ''discount Solar Exalted''.]]

'''Gaspar''': No waaaayyyy! There is absolutely no way for me to even remotely look like [[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure that incredibly handsome gentleman!]]

** Upon encountering Kiba's Sword Birth sacred gear Issei immediately makes a quip about ''[[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Unlimited Blade Works]]''. Kiba is confused, but Rias immediately outs herself as an Archer fangirl.
