* DamnYouMuscleMemory: Takao suffers from this when she first regains her memories as Rida. Her mind remembers the correct ways to move in a fight, but her average high school girl body can't keep up, so she just ends up off balance and in slight pain.



* GhostAmnesia: {{Reincarnation}} style. All of the reincarnated characters note they have extremely vague memories of how the war they died in started, and many of them can't seem to remember how it was they died. Especially prominent in the priests, who should have been evacuating the area, and thus would've been nowhere near the castle when it fell. (Even Gerald/Midou, who snuck out to the palace, shouldn't have gotten there in time.) Harusumi assumes that he's remembered all of Veronica's memories over the years, but [[spoiler: with Teshimano's revelation that he remembers seeing Veronica fighting with Lucas, Harusumi realizes that Veronica ''must'' have lived beyond the memory that he had always assumed detailed her final moments]].



* IdentityAmnesia: Zeze has some general memories about living in the castle in Zerestria, but he's not really sure who he was. (And he seems to feel he's probably better off that way.) Harusumi pretends to have this in order to protect himself from Veronica's potential enemies.

* ThisIsUnforgivable: There's a lot of this feeling among the Zerestrians towards the Moswickians when everyone in Class 4 regains their PastLifeMemories. In particular, Meguro, reincarnation of a squire of Zerestria, freaks out and tries to kill Nishina, who was a knight of Moswick. [[spoiler: Teshimano and Harusumi talk him out of it.]]

* BullyingTheDragon: Those bullies in chapter 0 were ''this'' close to being blown to pieces via magic before Harusumi stopped himself. That being said, they were still knocked out with a weaker spell.

* MinorMajorCharacter: Prince Eugene. His presence pervades the story, as he was Veronica's husband and possibly the one of the only people in the castle who knew ''why'' Moswick was attacking its ally Zerestria, yet readers know almost nothing about him beyond that he was the Third Prince of Moswick.

* PosthumousCharacter: Considering they all died at the castle and were reincarnated, all characters from the past are essentially this.

* SinisterMinister: Lucas Langeais. In the memories of his past life, Teshimano remembers seeing Lucas attack Veronica, and Lucas's reincarnation is the top suspect for attacking Kamioka at the beginning of the series. Not to mention, when he finally appears in a flashback, [[UncannyValley there is something just not right about him]].

* Badass: All over the place. It's to be expected, with a castle full of battle-ready knights and squires being reincarnated with their skill-sets intact. Particular mention goes to Harusumi (not only did he rediscover his magic three years earlier than the rest of the cast, his [[GuileHero strategic and manipulative approach]] to battle tends to give him in edge) and Takao (even without the physical strength her previous incarnation had built up through training, she wasn't the Princess's primary bodyguard for nothing).

* [[TheWisePrince The Wise Princess]]: Veronica. While she doesn't seem to have a lot of political power - her having elder brothers that are ahead of her in line for the throne are vaguely alluded to, her marriage is decided for her - she's shown to be responsible and intelligent, with a firm conviction to protect the people living under her care. [[spoiler: Her regret over [[MyGreatestFailure failure to do so]] seems to have carried over to Harusumi. Zeze theorizes that's why he's so obsessed with protecting their school.]]

** BadassPrincess: Veronica. Not formally trained in battle, but she still fought alongside her guards when Moswick invaded.



* RebelliousPrincess: While mostly mindful of her responsibilities, Veronica definitely wasn't a conventional princess. She was very easy-going and flouted rules of propriety left and right.



* WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove: Because of how his commoner mother, the mistress of a noble, was treated and discarded, and because of how [[HeroicBastard he was treated as a result]], Glen gained a cynical outlook on love. [[spoiler: He acknowledges that he likes Veronica, but he has no idea if those feelings are what would be called "love".]]

** First there's Harusumi's confession to Takao in chapter 1. He just randomly tells her he likes her in the middle of a crowded hallway. And, after a {{Beat}} and a shocked, "Whoa", ''she replies the same way''.
** Then there's [[spoiler: Moto's confession to Hiroki]] in chapter 6. When she tries to leave to deal with a dangerous situation on her own, he loudly declares his love for her and insists on going with her [[DeclarationOfProtection to protect her]]. [[spoiler: ''Much'' later, when the chaos finally dies down, she turns him down.]]
