History Manga / FireForce

* ItIsDehumanizing: The cultists have simple names based on their fire powers: Flail uses an EpicFlail; Arrow is an ArcherArchetype, Mirage has illusion powers, etc. Lisa and Arrow claim they're only tools for the cult and its "preacher", which their adversaries find rather sad.

* GrotesqueCute: The Fire Force has three mascots which were originally cute animals until [[RuleOfThree the third one]] [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers was changed into an old man.]] Shinra and Arthur think it's disturbing while others find it adorable.

* DarkChick: The White Hood's Arrow is cold, indifferent to emotion and a long range fighter.

* IdiotCrows: In "The Man, Assault" (season 2 episode 18), every time Assault defies Tamaki in a duel, he ends up humiliatingly defeated by her "[[WardrobeMalfucntion Lucky Lecher]]" because of his ParalyzingFearOfSexuality. And each time, one or two crows fly in the sky to insult him.

* JurisdictionFriction: Each Fire Force Company is in charge of certain areas and they really don't like the other groups interfering with their work. This means Company 8 often needs an excuse to get involved without risking a fight.

* WhamEpisode - As a series with many mysteries, ''Fire Force'' is full of these as answers to major questions.

* ShipperOnDeck: Iris reveals herself to rooting for for Shinra x Tamaki and Obi x Hibana.
** [[spoiler: Made even funnier when, in the end, Iris herself ends up bearing one of Shinra's children.]]

* ThemeNaming: Many members of the Fire Force have names that have something to do with fire, heat or light.

* ILoveNuclearPower: [[spoiler: Nataku generates radiation as part of his abilities as the Sixth Pillar.]]

** During the raid on Haijima, [[spoiler:[[NukeEm Nataku]]'s insanely strong and radioactive beam gets redirected by Charon at the moon and ends up creating a massive crater large enough to be seen from Earth with the naked eye. No one really cares, since [[WeirdnessCensor everything’s been so wacky ever since the Great Cataclysm]].]]

** When [[spoiler:Viktor Licht]] is making photos of the stone tablets in [[spoiler:proto-Amaterasu]] and talking about the number pi on them, [[MatrixRainingCode matrix code rain]] (from the [[Franchise/TheMatrix Matrix franchise]], OFC) is [[https://imgur.com/FyhJ7MU shown for a few seconds]].

** [[UsefulNotes/AlbertEinstein The cover of the 82th chapter of the manga]] has Shinra mirroring UsefulNotes/AlbertEinstein's [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Einstein_tongue.jpg famous photo where he sticks out his tongue]].

* BarbieDollAnatomy: There are several cases of men being shown bare-chested, but their nipples are never shown. Same goes for women, but that is usually done through censor steam, censor foam, and so on.

* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Played with. After Rekka beats up Tamaki at the end of episode 8, her face is bruised and bloody for the last scene of that episode and beginning of the next one. Then, after the opening credits of episode 9, she is back to normal. And then gets much more fanservicey.

** In the manga, when captain Obi reprimanded Shinra and Arthur for flouting his order to conceal their weapons from civilians, he calls a firesoldier's destruction of an Infernal "murder", reminding them that all Infernals were human once, and that they have surviving family, friends, and so on that would suffer more if they saw the tools that would kill their family member, friend, and so on, even if it was most certainly a MercyKill.

** Sexual elements (i.e. it wasn't shown how Shinra caught a glimpse of Hibana's underwear, it was only suggested), violence and swearing was toned down in the animé, as well.

* {{Bowdlerise}}: In light of the arson of Creator/KyotoAnimation's Studio 1 building that took place on July 18, 2019, Mainichi Broadcasting System in Japan made the decision to change the color of the flames in episode 3 of the anime adaptation, making note to make further changes for similar situations in future episodes.
