----
!! It's My Life contains examples of:

* ADayInTheLimelight: Chapters 25-25.2 are [=GorGor's=] OriginsEpisode.
* AccidentalMisnaming: Subverted. Kyuss tries to call Elise by her actual name for once (he usually calls her an ironing board) and guesses "Lizzy". He later freaks out when Rose refers to her as Elise, thinking that he's misnamed her, but since Elise's full name is "Elizabeth", calling her "Lizzy" isn't exactly incorrect.
* AmbiguouslyBi: Kyuss gets a fair bit of ShipTease with Elise, but he also idolises his best friend Astra in a manner that looks like a crush.
* AnIcePerson: Elise favors ice magic, although she's capable with anything.
* TheArtifact: Astra started hiding his face after he was rejected by his best friend. He continues to wear his mask and refuses to show his face, even after reconciling with said best friend.
* AuthorAppeal:
** The author clearly loves metal. The chapters are named after rock and metal songs, Astra's subordinates are named after members of Music/IronMaiden, and in an Omake, Kyuss keeps on misremembering the Antikythirans' species name as various metallers' names. Even the magic incantations come from metal songs, particularly from Finnish bands.
** By Imomushi's own account, the series only features things he likes or wants to draw - masks, a person's thirties, non-humans, glasses, flat chests, large chests, tans, yuri subtext, yaoi subtext, old men, little girls, little boys, body hair, animals...
* BeachEpisode: Chapter 21.
* BeastMan: Many, including {{Draconic Humanoid}}s and CatFolk; see their respective entries below for more.
* BerserkButton: Threatening Noah or damaging Astra's house or property is this for him.
* BigDamnHeroes: Kyuss comes to Elise's rescue in chapter 28.
* CatFolk: Buntline, the resident carpenter near Astra's house, is one. Most of the village is shown as this too.
* CelibateHero: It's not that Astra's never been interested in anyone, it's just that he's more interested in his house, whether getting it or looking after it.
* CuddleBug: Riff, the shopkeeper and apothecary at the Cait Sith village, is very fond and clingy of Noah, to the point that the girl asks Astra not to take her there the next time because Riff riddled her with kisses.
* DarkSkinnedBlond: Rose is a silver-haired variant.
* DefeatMeansFriendship: Or rather, defeat means becoming friends again; Kyuss and Astra used to be friends, but Astra being more talented than Kyuss, combined with Kyuss's own insecurities, causes him to turn against Astra. When they meet up again, they get into a fight, and Kyuss's defeat causes him to realize the problem wasn't Astra, but himself, enabling the two of them to reconcile.
* DraconicHumanoid: The Dragonewt Brigands are two brothers, both of whom are bipedal human sized dragon people.
* ElvesVsDwarves: Commander Oz Snowblind, a white dwarf, really doesn't get along with Dr. Feelgood, who is a big elf.
* EvilTwin: [[spoiler:Noah has one]].
* EyeScream: The way to get the gemstone of an Antikythiran is to remove an eye and let the gemstone grow in the socket. [[{{Squick}} They have to be alive for the process.]]
* TheFaceless: Astra's face is never clearly shown; in the present day he wears a mask, and in flashbacks his face is shadowed, obscured or indistinct. His only visible feature is his eyes.
* FantasticRacism: The Antikytherian race as a whole considers humans as dirty and corrupt.
* FluffyTheTerrible: [=GoaGoa=] is a huge dragon who is easily tamed by sweets, gets scared by strange plants, dislikes being left alone, and generally behaves like a spoiled child.
* FracturedFairyTale: Chapter 26.5 is an {{omake}} chapter with the cast doing ''Literature/{{Cinderella}}''. Thing is, ''Astra'' was cast as the Prince, and when Noah as Cinderella crashes the ball, he is ''not'' happy with what she's [[BerserkButton done to his castle...]]
* FriendVersusLover: Played for laughs in one bonus chapter where Kyuss and Noah try to claim ownership over Astra. The argument's quickly settled when both realise that they're aiming for different positions in Astra's life.
-->'''Kyuss:''' I'm Astra's best friend!!\\
'''Noah:''' I'm Astra-sama's [[PrecociousCrush wife]]!!\\
'''Kyuss:''' What, so our positions are different, huh? I guess that's okay then.\\
'''Noah:''' Well then, let's agree that Astra-sama belongs to the both of us.
* HiddenElfVillage: The Antikytherians live on an island that's completely surrounded by mountains. The only way to get in or out of the village is through flight.
* HotSpringsEpisode: Chapter 36.
* HugeGuyTinyGirl:
** Astra stands 202 cm (6' 7 1/2"), Noah stands 121 cm (4').
** Kyuss stands 195 cm (about 6' 5"), Elise stands 160 cm (5' 3")
* IJustWantToHaveFriends: Both Astra and Noah were markedly lonely before they met each other. Astra adopted a lonely life behind a mask because his friends resented him for making them look bad by outperforming them and gaining rank, while Noah was picked upon by her peers due to her being bad at magic.
* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming: Chapters in the manga are called days, and are named after Rock, Hard Rock and Heavy Metal songs.
* IronicName: Astra Ludger Doomsday is a generally nice guy and a retired captain of the guard despite his name.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: Elise has her memories temporarily suppressed for the first half of Volume 5. The resulting AmnesiacDissonance leaves her more humble, open, and vulnerable.
* MadScientist: Riff's a magical version, coming up with weird magical devices.
* MageKiller: One of Astra's functions in battle at the guard was to find and slay the enemy wizards first, because it's known that they can be terrible threats. As such, he has a very good idea of what magic users can and cannot do, even when he's not versed in magic himself.
* {{Meganekko}}: Elise, Noah's adopted sister.
* MistakenForPedophile: Astra tries to defy this trope when his subordinates come to visit his new house. His attempts to explain Noah's presence only end up [[DiggingYourselfDeeper making it worse.]]
* MundaneUtility:
** Humans use magical items for everyday tasks; lamps, stoves and showers are all magic-powered, and Astra's recently learned of magical washing machines and vacuum cleaners.
** Astra uses his incredible skill with the sword to cut hair.
* MysteriousWaif: Noah's an orphan of unknown origin with immense magical power she can't control.
* NamedAfterSomebodyFamous: Astra's subordinates at the guard, Gers, Smith and Murray, are named after the three guitarists of Music/IronMaiden, Janick Gers, Adrian Smith and Dave Murray.
* NoSenseOfDirection: Noah gets lost occasionally; her original meeting with Astra is because she went West instead of East across an ''entire'' continent.
* OlderThanTheyLook: When Noah asks Buntline how old he is, Astra comments it's hard for humans to tell [[BeastMan beast folks']] age. Buntline asks Astra how old he is, Astra says he's 35, and Buntline says he's more than twenty years younger than him.
* PetMonstrosity: Astra and Noah have a pet dragon named [=GoaGoa=], a blind species of dragon named and based off [[Myth/NorseMythology the Nidhogg]].
* ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything: Buntline is said to be the village chief, but he never does anything to demonstrate that he has such authority, and he seems to spend more time helping Astra with house work.
* PrecociousCrush: Noah is an 8-year-old who wishes to become Astra's wife.
* PurelyAestheticGlasses: Zigzagged with Elise. Her eyesight is fine, but she wears glasses to change the colour of her silver irises to make herself look less conspicuous. However, the additional notes mention that she continues to wear her glasses at home, because she just likes them.
* ShoutOut: The Antikythirans' name references the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antikythera_mechanism Antikythera mechanism]].
* SilverHasMysticPowers: The three magical races of the series' verse are connected to silver. Antikythirans have silver eyes, the other two yet-unseen races are said to have silver horns and silver body markings, respectively.
* SlimeGirl: A slime decides to model itself on Noah, who's not in the least bit happy about it.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: [=GoaGoa=] or [=GorGor=]?
* SquishyWizard: Noah is young and inexperienced at magic, though she's powerful enough to summon a spell to reduce a temple to rubble.
* TheWomanWearingTheQueenlyMask: Elise inherited the position of Tribal Chief at an early age after her mother died; being new to the role, and trying to live up to her mother's reputation, she dedicated all her efforts to it at the cost of having any sort of personal life, and as a result, she's awkward to the point of {{tsundere}} when dealing with others on an interpersonal level. After she meets Astra and company, she wants to be free to pursue her own desires, but is bound by the responsibilities of her position.
* WouldHurtAChild: The Dragonewt brothers want Noah's eyes, child or not.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Astra has green hair, per Word of God, which can be made out on the cover page of chapter 21.
