* AlienBlood: The [[EliteMooks ATP Engineers and Soldats]] have bright yellow blood instead of the usual red, seemingly as a result of whatever augmentations they received.



* BodyHorror: Hank gains a crustaceanoid arm after being revived by the Magnification Chamber. He lost his jaw 3 episodes earlier.

Hank slowly accumulates damage as the series goes on. This is particularly pronounced in his ''Antipathy'' design, where his ripped-off jaw has been replaced by a metal plate (leaving his upper teeth exposed), his skull is partly exposed, and his chest is basically a mass of bandages. [[spoiler:Then he gains a crustaceanoid arm after being revived by the Magnification Chamber. He lost Chamber]].
** Mag Agent Torture has a pair of stakes rammed through
his jaw 3 episodes earlier.head in an 'X' shape, leaving him with a gaping hole through one cheek in official art.



* CannibalismSuperpower: Subverted in ''5.5''. Tricky attempts to use [[spoiler: Jebus's zombie making powers]] after killing him by [[spoiler: [[CrossesTheLineTwice wearing the top half of his severed head like a hat, he needed the Halo apparently instead.]]]] Much to his frustration, it doesn't work.

* CannibalismSuperpower: CameBackWrong: [[spoiler:MAG Hank]] is a particularly pronounced example, what with the (supposed) steep drop in intelligence and giant mutant arm.

* DarkerAndEdgier: The original video was just a random fight Flash with no story and plenty of bloodless silliness. Compare the latest video.

* DarkerAndEdgier: More or less [[SequelEscalation consistently with each episode]]. The original video was just a random fight Flash with no story and plenty of bloodless silliness. Compare Redeemer introduces blood to the latest video.violence. Avenger reaches a level of greater gore. Afterwards it's the setting that gradually gets bleaker. Apotheosis shows a world of endless night. Depredation introduces more of the dystopian elements with the AAHW. Antipathy and Consternation show a hell-like red sky world. Inundation, Aggregation, and Abrogation show a reality that is collapsing. [[spoiler:And then in Expurgation, the majority of the episode takes place in the Auditor's Hell, an even greater EldritchLocation than Nevada.]]



* DarkReprise: The song from ''Abrogation'' has elements from ''Consternation'', ''Depredation'' and others.

to:

* DarkReprise: A few in the series.
** "Calliope", the track in the second half of Avenger is actually a dark sounding techno remix of "Powerhouse", the instrumental track by Raymond Scott that is most famously used in various WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes cartoons. This fits the cartoon-like insanity from the activation of the Improbability Drive.
** The middle of "Madness 7", the track of Consternation, is a slower and more demonic sounding version of "Train Madness" from Antipathy, showing the more vile and serious form Tricky has taken since the last episode.
**
The song from ''Abrogation'' Abrogation has elements segments that remix "Madness 7" from ''Consternation'', ''Depredation'' Consternation and others."Clown Song of Death" from Depredation in the middle. The end of the "Clown Song of Death" portion syncs with [[spoiler:Tricky coming back to life near the end of the animation.]]

* BadassNormal: Hank at first, before going through numerous [[BackFromTheDead resurrections]] that give him superpowers, and now Sanford and Deimos fit the bill, being the only protagonists thus far without having some kind of power or mutation. [[spoiler:Well, maybe just Sanford.]] The two mooks that are forced to accompany the Auditor ''would'' count, being able to [[spoiler:outshoot Sanford and Demios]], but they're superpowered. That being said, no one is really "normal" as all the agents can have their [[NoFourthWall stats raised]] by the Auditor with a press of a button. It makes the agents [[RedEyesTakeWarning eyes glow red.]] Why he can't raise their stats higher remains unclear. Also, some of the regular recruits in ''Incident:011A''. The last two guys in particular who finally manage to [[spoiler: kill the MAG Agent. One of them still doesn't make it. Of all of them, only two manage to stab him and three hit him with bullets. The last one takes the easy route and implants a grenade round directly in the MAG's head.]]
