* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulhu: [[spoiler:Dawitsu manages to calmly state to [[RealityWarper Yukari]] that Ran is now his Shikigami and that she has no rights making orders to her. And even convinces her to give Yutaka back without swapping her for Ran using [[PersonOfMassDestruction Flandre Scarlet.]]]] However, it may be noted that later books confirm [[spoiler:Yukari [[ILetYouWin let him have his way.]]]]

* DivingSave: Of a sort. [[spoiler:Dawitsu rushes in front of Yutaka and activates a shield using Laevateinn to protect her from Marisa's [[FrickinLaserBeams Master Spark.]]]]
* DrinkingContest: Dawitsu and Suika have an [[OffscreenMomentofAwesome unseen one]] in the later stages of the 'free slaps' event held by Dawitsu.
* DumbassHasAPoint: Dawitsu, a few times.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The writing style is far less descriptive, the characters are more unrealistic, the whole plot's a little less thought out than in later books.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Considering the [[RonTheDeathEater harsh depiction]] of Remilia and Yukari, Remilia is quite the protective sister, if anything.
* EverythingsBetterWithSpinning: Dawitsu imitates [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess Zant's]] cleaver spin at one point.
* [[MegatonPunch Falcon... PAWNCH!]]
* FantasticRacism: Not exactly extreme, but Aya puts on a 'human impression' voice while imitating Marisa. Sort of makes sense, given Youkai are a different species to the short-lived humans.
* FelonyMisdemeanor: {{Inverted|Trope}}. Yuyuko comes home [[spoiler:to find her house destroyed by Yukari and Dawitsu's brawling.]] The response? [[spoiler:"Oh, I think the 'destroyed look' is very in..."]]

* {{Glomp}}: [[spoiler:Sakuya glomps Dawitsu suddenly, declaring him 'kind'. This is superficially disliked by Dawitsu, but [[CovertPervert we all know he loved it...]]]]
* GoodOldFisticuffs: [[spoiler:Yukari and Dawitsu's Danmaku Battle eventually becomes the Gensokyo equivilent of that, that is, a melee-only fight.]]
* {{Hammerspace}}: Dawitsu is stated to have this power.
* HeadsIWinTailsYouLose: Remilia makes 'negotiations' with Dawitsu by making Dawitsu ''up his offer'' every time they try and come to a new deal instead of meeting him halfway.
* TheHeart: Yutaka stops [[spoiler:Dawitsu's RoaringRampageOfRevenge by being this.]]
* HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler:Dawitsu "copes" with losing Yutaka by drinking whiskey all alone, and is found lying on his dining room table by Aya.]]
* HiddenDepths: Aya may be the bane of everyone's existence and a massive slanderer, but she trusts and appreciates Reimu's heroism more than many in Gensokyo. [[spoiler:She also counsels Dawitsu during his BSOD.]]
* HumanShield: [[spoiler:Yukari uses Ran as one.]]
* HumiliationConga: Dawitsu somewhat masochistically allows a 'free slap session' in his mansion as some strange form of Atonement for his transgressions.
* HypercompetentSidekick: Yutaka certainly plays this role while [[spoiler:Dawitsu is fighting Reimu and Marisa, and seems to be the only one actually noticing the two planning their assault.]]
* ImStandingRightHere: Yutaka tries to subtly point out that [[spoiler:Patchouli Knowledge is standing right behind him as he discusses whether her sexuality is compatible with Yutaka.]] He [[ComicallyMissingThePoint comically misses the point]] until it's too late. Followed by [[spoiler:Patchouli]] playing the exact same trope as she says 'Your Boss doesn't speak to people all that well, does he?' and Dawitsu [[LampshadeHanging lampshading it.]]
* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: See Affably Evil above.
* InnocentCohabitation: [[spoiler:Patchouli Knowledge]] spends the night at the Dawitsu Mansion in a totally innocuous manner, yet all it takes is [[{{Paparazzi}} Aya]] to twist this into an... [[NotWhatItLooksLike interesting conclusion and/or hypothesis.]]
* InsistentTerminology: Dawitsu is Yutaka's BOSS, not Master.
* ItSeemedLikeAGoodIdeaAtTheTime: Dawitsu literally says this word-for-word about being hungover after having an [[NoodleIncident unseen drinking contest]] with [[TheAlcoholic Suika]].
* JapaneseHonorifics: Awkwardly used in places. Thankfully rarely seen in the later books.
* JerkassHasAPoint: Most of Yukari's criticism of Dawitsu is pretty legitimate.
* LargeHam: Aya, Dawitsu.
* MistakenForGay: Sakuya briefly thinks Dawitsu could be gay. [[CaptainObvious She is mistaken.]]
* [[TheJoyOfX Mimicry for Dummies]]
* LackOfEmpathy: Yukari doesn't seem to understand why [[spoiler:Yutaka doesn't like serving under her compared to the ''person she's spent years of friendship with.'']]
* MorningRoutine
* BigNo: [[spoiler:Dawitsu, after finding out that Yukari obtained ownership of Yutaka.]]
* NotMeThisTime: Marisa is accused of stealing laeveteinn due to her reputation as a thief, but, [[CaptainObvious it isn't her this time.]]
* TheParalyzer: Patchouli has a method of paralyzing vampires in an instant using magic.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: Flandre Scarlet, more so than in the other books, where instead her personality is explored rather than her raw power.
* PetitePride: [[spoiler:Dawitsu wants Sakuya to feel this way.]]
* PinchMe: Reimu visits the Dawitsu Mansion in chapter twelve to find [[spoiler:Sakuya, Patchouli, Ran, and Chen cohabiting in the house with Dawitsu and Yutaka.]] She concludes it has to [[AllJustADream be a dream,]] and tries to confirm this by hitting her head against the wall. She ''is'' in the real world...
* ThePowerOfLove: A subtle example (compared to love being transformed into FrickinLaserBeams, at least). The reason [[spoiler:Chen, Ran, and Sakuya all prefer Dawitsu to their respective Mistresses or ex-Mistresses is due to his caring attitude towards them.]]
* PrecisionFStrike: Ran Yakumo saying 'Give me the damn thing!' wouldn't be as powerful if it wasn't coming from the same person who ''never swears again in the rest of the series.'' It even causes Chen's [[AllAnimalsAreDogs tails to go between her legs.]]
* PretendPrejudice: Downplayed. Alice joins Marisa [[spoiler:in her mockery of Patchouli's supposed 'homosexuality' (which turns out to be true anyway) by saying she considers attraction to the same gender 'simply unforgivable'. Turns out she's gay for Marisa.]]
* PsychopathicManchild: Flandre plays this straight in this book, however, in later books [[spoiler:[[CharacterDevelopment Character Development]] kicks in an she stabilizes.]]
* [[spoiler:ReplacementGoldfish: Ran attempts to be this to Yutaka, even dressing up as her to try and replace her. Dawitsu does ''not'' take kindly to it.]]
* [[spoiler:RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Dawitsu, already under stress due to his up and coming battle with [[RealityWarper Yukari]], receives news that Aya ''did'' publish her findings on him, Yutaka, and Patchouli. The results aren't pretty, and it took Yutaka [[EyesAlwaysClosed opening her eyes]] and pleading with her boss to stop him from burning down her house.]]
* RunningGag: [[HotScoop Aya's]] persistent breaking of everyone's walls instead of knocking on the door.
* SarcasmMode: Reimu is noteably far more snarky in the first installment than the ones after, and uses this a lot.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: [[spoiler:Sakuya snaps and leaves her Mistress temporarily against her wishes because Remilia dropped a China Cup on the floor ''just so Sakuya could pick it up.'']]
* SecurityCling: Dawitsu holds on to Yutaka while [[spoiler:he hysterically tells her that he couldn't live without her at the prospect of losing her to Yukari.]]
* SelfDeprecation: Dawitsu, of his entire gender- 'Yes, I'm a guy. You know, the uglier, flat-chested, short-haired version of a woman.'
* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: Dawitsu tries this on Yukari by using the word "Duplicitous", who responds by saying [[DeconstructedTrope "Stop using long words to make yourself sound intelligent.]] [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech You're not."]].
* BigShutUp: Remilia gives one while punching Dawitsu to the ground after pointing out that she [[DumbassHasAPoint has no right being protective of her sister when she locks her in the mansion basement.]]
* SincerityMode: When Aya tells Reimu about how genuinely appreciated she is in Gensokyo, she truly means it, and snaps back to her silly self afterwards.
* SweetTooth: Most likely an obvious allusion to her [[{{Tsundere}} Type A Tsundere]] attributes, Reimu requests Strawberry Tea from Yutaka [[spoiler:after beating Dawitsu,]] which in itself isn't strange. It's the fact she wants ''sugar adding to it'' that's slightly odd.
* TrainingMontage: Although not quite as spectacularly {{averted|Trope}} in Jean's Magical Education, Dawitsu averts this when [[spoiler:training for his up-coming fight against Yukari.]]
* TranquilFury: PlayedForLaughs. [[RunningGag Aya breaks through Reimu's wall]] just as she's rebuilt it, causing Reimu to calmly say 'I hate you so much.'. Even funnier when Alice comes out with the exact same line to Marisa regarding her laziness and Aya [[LampshadeHanging lampshades it.]]
* UncomfortableElevatorMoment: Yutaka shares this with Marisa and Reimu several times on the way to Dawitsu.
* WaxingLyrical: [[spoiler:Ran unintentionally references {{Music/A-ha}}'s "Take On Me", after she says, "Take on me! Take me on!", and this causes Dawitsu to burst into tears (as he's recently lost Yutaka to Yukari) and sing, "I'll... be... gone... in a day or TWOOOOOOOO!" before bursting into tears at how Yutaka would have loved the reference.]]
* YouJustToldMe: Aya claims to have several sources accusing Dawitsu of [[spoiler:sexually harrassing Sakuya Izayoi.]] Dawitsu is quick to deny this, saying [[spoiler:"I just joked about her wearing pads..."]]. This bites him in the ass when Aya reveals she didn't really have any sources, and that this is going down in print.
* YouScratchMyBackIllScratchYours: Dawitsu says this word-for-word when asking [[spoiler:Remilia to let him observe Patchouli and Sakuya as part of his training.]] Humorously taken literally by [[spoiler:Remilia.]]
* YouWouldntShootMe: [[spoiler:A variant, closer to 'You wouldn't destroy my house'. Yukari claims Dawitsu wouldn't have Flandre destroy her house. Dawitsu proves otherwise, and almost fails to stop Flandre ''carrying out his threat'' once Yukari agrees to give Yutaka back. Thankfully Patchouli saves the day.]]

* HeadsIWinTailsYouLose: Remilia makes 'negotiations' with Dawitsu by making Dawitsu ''up his offer'' every time they try and come to a new deal instead of meeting him halfway.
* TheHeart: Yutaka stops [[spoiler:Dawitsu's RoaringRampageOfRevenge by being this.]]
* HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler:Dawitsu "copes" with losing Yutaka by drinking whiskey all alone, and is found lying on his dining room table by Aya.]]
* HiddenDepths: Aya may be the bane of everyone's existence and a massive slanderer, but she trusts and appreciates Reimu's heroism more than many in Gensokyo. [[spoiler:She also counsels Dawitsu during his BSOD.]]
* HumanShield: [[spoiler:Yukari uses Ran as one.]]
* HumiliationConga: Dawitsu somewhat masochistically allows a 'free slap session' in his mansion as some strange form of Atonement for his transgressions.
* HypercompetentSidekick: Yutaka certainly plays this role while [[spoiler:Dawitsu is fighting Reimu and Marisa, and seems to be the only one actually noticing the two planning their assault.]]
* ImStandingRightHere: Yutaka tries to subtly point out that [[spoiler:Patchouli Knowledge is standing right behind him as he discusses whether her sexuality is compatible with Yutaka.]] He [[ComicallyMissingThePoint comically misses the point]] until it's too late. Followed by [[spoiler:Patchouli]] playing the exact same trope as she says 'Your Boss doesn't speak to people all that well, does he?' and Dawitsu [[LampshadeHanging lampshading it.]]
* IneffectualSympatheticVillain: See Affably Evil above.
* InnocentCohabitation: [[spoiler:Patchouli Knowledge]] spends the night at the Dawitsu Mansion in a totally innocuous manner, yet all it takes is [[{{Paparazzi}} Aya]] to twist this into an... [[NotWhatItLooksLike interesting conclusion and/or hypothesis.]]
* InsistentTerminology: Dawitsu is Yutaka's BOSS, not Master.
* ItSeemedLikeAGoodIdeaAtTheTime: Dawitsu literally says this word-for-word about being hungover after having an [[NoodleIncident unseen drinking contest]] with [[TheAlcoholic Suika]].
* JapaneseHonorifics: Awkwardly used in places. Thankfully rarely seen in the later books.
* JerkassHasAPoint: Most of Yukari's criticism of Dawitsu is pretty legitimate.
* LargeHam: Aya, Dawitsu.
* MistakenForGay: Sakuya briefly thinks Dawitsu could be gay. [[CaptainObvious She is mistaken.]]
* [[TheJoyOfX Mimicry for Dummies]]
* LackOfEmpathy: Yukari doesn't seem to understand why [[spoiler:Yutaka doesn't like serving under her compared to the ''person she's spent years of friendship with.'']]
* MorningRoutine
* BigNo: [[spoiler:Dawitsu, after finding out that Yukari obtained ownership of Yutaka.]]
* NotMeThisTime: Marisa is accused of stealing laeveteinn due to her reputation as a thief, but, [[CaptainObvious it isn't her this time.]]
* TheParalyzer: Patchouli has a method of paralyzing vampires in an instant using magic.
* PersonOfMassDestruction: Flandre Scarlet, more so than in the other books, where instead her personality is explored rather than her raw power.
* PetitePride: [[spoiler:Dawitsu wants Sakuya to feel this way.]]
* PinchMe: Reimu visits the Dawitsu Mansion in chapter twelve to find [[spoiler:Sakuya, Patchouli, Ran, and Chen cohabiting in the house with Dawitsu and Yutaka.]] She concludes it has to [[AllJustADream be a dream,]] and tries to confirm this by hitting her head against the wall. She ''is'' in the real world...
* ThePowerOfLove: A subtle example (compared to love being transformed into FrickinLaserBeams, at least). The reason [[spoiler:Chen, Ran, and Sakuya all prefer Dawitsu to their respective Mistresses or ex-Mistresses is due to his caring attitude towards them.]]
* PrecisionFStrike: Ran Yakumo saying 'Give me the damn thing!' wouldn't be as powerful if it wasn't coming from the same person who ''never swears again in the rest of the series.'' It even causes Chen's [[AllAnimalsAreDogs tails to go between her legs.]]
* PretendPrejudice: Downplayed. Alice joins Marisa [[spoiler:in her mockery of Patchouli's supposed 'homosexuality' (which turns out to be true anyway) by saying she considers attraction to the same gender 'simply unforgivable'. Turns out she's gay for Marisa.]]
* PsychopathicManchild: Flandre plays this straight in this book, however, in later books [[spoiler:[[CharacterDevelopment Character Development]] kicks in an she stabilizes.]]
* [[spoiler:ReplacementGoldfish: Ran attempts to be this to Yutaka, even dressing up as her to try and replace her. Dawitsu does ''not'' take kindly to it.]]
* [[spoiler:RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Dawitsu, already under stress due to his up and coming battle with [[RealityWarper Yukari]], receives news that Aya ''did'' publish her findings on him, Yutaka, and Patchouli. The results aren't pretty, and it took Yutaka [[EyesAlwaysClosed opening her eyes]] and pleading with her boss to stop him from burning down her house.]]
* RunningGag: [[HotScoop Aya's]] persistent breaking of everyone's walls instead of knocking on the door.
* SarcasmMode: Reimu is noteably far more snarky in the first installment than the ones after, and uses this a lot.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: [[spoiler:Sakuya snaps and leaves her Mistress temporarily against her wishes because Remilia dropped a China Cup on the floor ''just so Sakuya could pick it up.'']]
* SecurityCling: Dawitsu holds on to Yutaka while [[spoiler:he hysterically tells her that he couldn't live without her at the prospect of losing her to Yukari.]]
* SelfDeprecation: Dawitsu, of his entire gender- 'Yes, I'm a guy. You know, the uglier, flat-chested, short-haired version of a woman.'
* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: Dawitsu tries this on Yukari by using the word "Duplicitous", who responds by saying [[DeconstructedTrope "Stop using long words to make yourself sound intelligent.]] [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech You're not."]].
* BigShutUp: Remilia gives one while punching Dawitsu to the ground after pointing out that she [[DumbassHasAPoint has no right being protective of her sister when she locks her in the mansion basement.]]
* SincerityMode: When Aya tells Reimu about how genuinely appreciated she is in Gensokyo, she truly means it, and snaps back to her silly self afterwards.
* SweetTooth: Most likely an obvious allusion to her [[{{Tsundere}} Type A Tsundere]] attributes, Reimu requests Strawberry Tea from Yutaka [[spoiler:after beating Dawitsu,]] which in itself isn't strange. It's the fact she wants ''sugar adding to it'' that's slightly odd.
* TrainingMontage: Although not quite as spectacularly {{averted|Trope}} in Jean's Magical Education, Dawitsu averts this when [[spoiler:training for his up-coming fight against Yukari.]]
* TranquilFury: PlayedForLaughs. [[RunningGag Aya breaks through Reimu's wall]] just as she's rebuilt it, causing Reimu to calmly say 'I hate you so much.'. Even funnier when Alice comes out with the exact same line to Marisa regarding her laziness and Aya [[LampshadeHanging lampshades it.]]
* UncomfortableElevatorMoment: Yutaka shares this with Marisa and Reimu several times on the way to Dawitsu.
* WaxingLyrical: [[spoiler:Ran unintentionally references {{Music/A-ha}}'s "Take On Me", after she says, "Take on me! Take me on!", and this causes Dawitsu to burst into tears (as he's recently lost Yutaka to Yukari) and sing, "I'll... be... gone... in a day or TWOOOOOOOO!" before bursting into tears at how Yutaka would have loved the reference.]]
* YouJustToldMe: Aya claims to have several sources accusing Dawitsu of [[spoiler:sexually harrassing Sakuya Izayoi.]] Dawitsu is quick to deny this, saying [[spoiler:"I just joked about her wearing pads..."]]. This bites him in the ass when Aya reveals she didn't really have any sources, and that this is going down in print.
* YouScratchMyBackIllScratchYours: Dawitsu says this word-for-word when asking [[spoiler:Remilia to let him observe Patchouli and Sakuya as part of his training.]] Humorously taken literally by [[spoiler:Remilia.]]
* YouWouldntShootMe: [[spoiler:A variant, closer to 'You wouldn't destroy my house'. Yukari claims Dawitsu wouldn't have Flandre destroy her house. Dawitsu proves otherwise, and almost fails to stop Flandre ''carrying out his threat'' once Yukari agrees to give Yutaka back. Thankfully Patchouli saves the day.]]
