* WarIsHell: This fic is ''not'' shy about the physical and mental costs of fighting a near-hopeless war. People die- not just in HeroicSacrifices, but in foolish ones, or just because they're not good enough fighters for the situation they're in- or even just from sheer bad luck. Those captured by the enemy are tortured and experimented on with very few exceptions. And even the survivors- even the ones who are alive and still trying to fight- are worn down by everything that's happened. Ukitake, Iba, and Soi Fong may be [[HandicappedBadass Handicapped Badasses]], but their injuries have a very real cost, in day to day life as well as in battle. And the psychological costs of the war are just as stark. [[BreakTheCutie Orihime]], [[MilesToGoBeforeISleep Ukitake,]] [[spoiler: TheMole Hisagi]] and many others who've lost friends or [[DirtyBusiness done things they're not proud of]] are soldiering on for now- but some of them have come perilously close to breaking, and even assuming a given person makes it through the war, that doesn't mean they'll be all right.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: Even before his CharacterDevelopment Grimmjow is visibly disturbed by Aizen, Mayuri, and Syzael's depraved experiments.

* MadScientist: This fic actually puts the most emphasize on Aizen's scientific acumen over his scheming or overwhelming power. It goes to show how beneath his charisma Aizen is an even ''more'' depraved monster than Mayuri or Syzael.
