* EarlyBirdCameo: Both Frida and David appear on the Sparrow Scouts' float and have a scene, before they officially become Hilda's friends and enter the main cast. Also, during the scene where Johanna tells Hilda she found the Raven in her room and put him outside, you can see David's parents in the crowd (though only seen from the rear).
** The witch Matilda Pilqvist is the old lady who Hilda attempts (and fails) to ding-dong ditch.

* YouHaveToBelieveMe: When Trevor is trying to convince his friends that the Raven DID talk, he tries to prove it by declaring it over and over. This, along with the fact that the Raven continues to not speak, makes Trevor look foolish to his friends, whom all laugh at him. And thanks to some antics involving Alfur, who is InvisibleToNormals, his friends all laugh harder at him.

* ChangeTheUncomfortableSubject: When Hilda sees some lightning in the sky even though it’s clear and sunny out, she tried to point this out to her mother. But Johanna THINKS she’s using this trope to distract her about her daughter making friends with human children.


Added DiffLines:

* FriendToAllLivingThings: Deconstructed here. Because Hilda has been mostly friends with animals most of her life, Johanna wants her to make human friends to be normal. That is why she didn’t want to tell her mother about the Raven, because he is another creature. But when Hilda confessed to this, Johanna explains to her that she’s proud of the fact that she can make friends with all types of creatures, she just wants her daughter to make friends with humans as well.

Added DiffLines:

* AdaptationDeviation: The episode uses "Hilda and the Bird Parade" as source material, but basically the only elements from the graphic novel that carry over to this episode are the basic premise (the Great Raven loses his memory on the day of the Bird Parade), the main characters, and the scenes of Hilda hanging out with Trevor and his friends. A lot of scenes from the graphic novel [[AdaptedOut are left out]] (like Hilda and the Raven getting lost in Trolberg with Twig having to find them, and the two encountering a Salt-Lion in the harbor), while lots of new material is added (Trevor having a larger role that turns him into the antagonist of the story, the Sparrow Scouts making a guest appearance, and Alfur being added to the story).

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: During their brief cameo in the crowd, David's parents can be seen with 2 children; a boy and a girl, both blonde. Who these kids are is anyone's guess, since they are never seen again after this cameo, and subsequent episodes that show David with his parents and/or in his house strongly suggest he's an only child.

* AmnesiaDanger: The Raven can't remember any of his powers, or even how to fly, which becomes a problem when he is accosted by cats and Trevor.
* AttackTheMouth: Alfur attacks Trevor in this way, jumping in his mouth and forcing it open, to give Raven a chance to escape. Because elves are InvisibleToNormals, he just looks weird to his friends.

* DistressedDude: The Raven becomes this for most of the episode, having only Alfur for help in an unfamiliar city. And that's before he gets captured by Trevor!
* DrowningPit: Raven's bird cage becomes this when Trevor knocks it into the river.
* EarlyBirdCameo: Both Frida and David appear on the Sparrow Scouts' float and have a scene, before they officially become Hilda's friends and enter the main cast.
* EasyAmnesia: The Raven loses his memories because he was hit by a rock mid-flight, and recovers them just by having Hilda shout his real identity at him.

* FictionalHoliday: The festival that Trolberg holds to honor the Great Raven.
* GoodCannotComprehendEvil: Though not exactly evil, but Hilda definitely has trouble understanding why Trevor and friends do what they do.
* IdentityAmnesia: Raven can't even remember if he loves grammar or not.
* TheJoyOfFirstFlight: Though she has flown on woffs before, the scene in which she rides on Raven's back is treated very much like this, for the both of them. Possibly because this GiantFlyer isn't trying to throw her off.
* PoorCommunicationKills: Because Hilda doesn't want her mum to know she's made friends with a bird over the human children she was last seen with, so she hides him. This leads Johanna to put Raven outside and getting captured by Trevor.
