* {{My God What Have I Done}}: Darwin, everytime he [[spoiler:cuts someone down on the Pedestal]], but most evident with [[spoiler:Orlando's death]].
* PlotCoupon: Sopia cores.
* SadisticChoice: A significant part of the plot of ''Chaos Rings II.'' [[spoiler: Darwin must choose which of his teammates to sacrifice as Pillars, with the knowledge that whoever he chooses, he'll just have to sacrifice another one soon enough.]]
* {{Tall Dark and Bishoujo}}: Li Hua.
* TrueFinalBoss: [[spoiler: Amon, the true identity of Bachs and the Creator of the world.]]
* WhiteHairedPrettyBoy: Darwin may count, but while his in-game model has him with silvery-gray hair, his artwork has him somewhere near platinum blonde tendecies.
* YouKilledMyFather: Everyone but Conor bags on Darwin for [[spoiler:killing Orlando]]. Orlando just happens to be Marie's step-brother, Araki's rival who he had an unsettled dispute with, and Li Hua's former comrade and [[spoiler:the father of her child]].
* ZeroEffortBoss: The final fight with [[spoiler: Amon. Darwin cannot die and the awakening he gains during the fight takes out Amon in one hit. Also counts as an AllYourPowersCombined because Darwin can only defeat Amon after being enhanced by the power of his friends' Ophanim and the power of Neron's Sopia.]] The fight before it however, is not a zero effort fight.
----
* TheArcher: Conor, seeing as he uses a crossbow.
* BloodKnight: Araki. [[spoiler: After his death we are told that his bloodlust may have even driven him to become an OmnicidalManiac.]]
* BodyHorror: [[spoiler: The TrueFinalBoss of ''Chaos Rings II'' appears to have burst out of Ophan Lessica's body--the Ophan's face is dangling from its chest.]]
* {{Continuity Nod}}: [[spoiler:In the library, there are records of past Rites of Resealing. The 8th Rite lists Escher as a Nominator and fellow Ark Arena contestant Eluca as a Candidate...]]
* DualWeilding: Orlando exhibits some Ayuta-esque dual-wielding with his twin machetes.
* DuelBoss: Darwin gets one against Araki, then [[spoiler:another one with him before Darwin sacrifices him]]. And a second one against [[spoiler:Lessica, before descending into Abbadon]]. In fact, all of the Ophan battles are this, except the final one.
* EarnYourHappyEnding
* EliteMook: Abaddon, which as you can guess, makes everything harder. If Abaddon wasn't enough for you, fear not, for Lessica introduces [[spoiler:The All-Seeing Eye]]. Cue armored Cicada and Coal Billiken.
* EmotionlessGirl: Lessica, [[SubvertedTrope mostly.]]
* ExposedToTheElements: Justified as [[spoiler:all the environments are artificial.]] {{Lampshaded}} in ''Omega'' when Olgar comments that he was worried he'd be underdressed in the mountains, but [[spoiler:the snow isn't even cold!]]
* FinalBossPreview: It opens with a variant of this, being a flash-forward of the actual final boss. [[spoiler: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] in that this ''isn't'' [[TrueFinalBoss the actual final boss]].]]
* GlowingEyesOfDoom: [[spoiler: Cyllis the Progenitor]].
* {{Happily Ever After}}: [[spoiler:After defeating Piu-Piu and letting him regain his memories, he rewards the characters by showing his true power and destroying the Hall and Amon in one blast. This leads to the eight of them (Lessica included) safely landing on the surface of the earth. Though, it might be {{Bittersweet Ending}} somewhat, just because Piu-Piu mourns Jodie, Meg, and Catherine's burning up in space, and it ends with Darwin and the boys failing to create new cut-outs and Marie and the girls substituting for Piu-Piu's harem.]]
* HeroicResolve: [[spoiler: [[HopelessBossFight Darwin is thoroughly battered by Neron,]] but manages to revive himself in order to take down the Destroyer. [[HeroicSacrifice He pays the price for it, though.]]]]
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler: Lessica makes one, transforming into an Ophan and allowing herself to be defeated in order to bind Amon, the TrueFinalBoss, to the physical plane (and thus making him vulnerable to the party's attacks) via her own body. She survives long enough to die in Darwin's arms after Amon's defeat.]]
* HopelessBossFight: Happens no less than ''four'' times, whenever the heroes try to defy the Rite [[spoiler: or the gods themselves.]]
* HorsemenOfTheApocalypse: All four are major [[RecurringBoss Recurring Bosses]], and are each fought [[RuleOfThree three times]] (though in the last instance [[DualBoss they pair up]]).
* InTheEndYouAreOnYourOwn: [[spoiler: Darwin has one final fight with Amon, away from all his allies. They do, however, support him, and provide some of the strength he needs to take down the Creator.]]
* LimitBreak: They are called "awakenings" and can be used when one has either taken or dealt enough damage.
* {{Love at First Sight}}/{{Love at First Punch}}: A very good case of both. Li Hua tells Darwin about how she and Orlando met for the first time on the battlefield and [[spoiler:nearly killed each other, thinking they were from opposing sides of the war. Li Hua remarks that it was his eyes that got her.]]
* ManipulativeBastard [[spoiler: Bachs, AKA Amon. The Rite of Resealing only exists in order for him to receive prayers and therefore godliness]].
* MultipleEndings: [[spoiler: ''Chaos Rings II'' features four after defeating Ophan Marie, each extending the story.]]
** [[spoiler: Bad Ending: Darwin decides to go along with the Rite of Resealing, and ends up being mind-wiped by Bachs, and sent to destroy the world with the Four Horseman.]]
** [[spoiler: [[BittersweetEnding Normal Ending]]: Darwin decides to defy the Rite, and goes with Lessica to destroy Neron in Abaddon, the core of the planet. He successfully defeats Neron, and restores the five Pillars, but [[HeroicSacrifice dies in the process]].]]
** [[spoiler: True Ending: Darwin is revived after defeating Neron, and receives Neron's Sopia. Lessica then reveals [[GodIsEvil the truth behind the plot]], and the party goes to defeat [[TrueFinalBoss Amon]].]]
** [[spoiler: Happy Ending: see HappilyEverAfter above.]]
