* {{Meganekko}}: Kinu

* PantyShot: Everyone at one point or another, but ''especially'' Momen.

* RecycledINSPACE: Basically, it's ''VideoGame/SakuraWars'' [-IN THE RUSSO-JAPANESE WAR-]. This is justified, as Satoru Akahori (the original scriptwriter of ''Sakura Wars''), created the series. The original VisualNovel is the same, and also [-AS AN H-GAME!-]

* RealSongThemeTune: The OVA ending is a cover of Finger 5's "Gakuen Tengoku" by the Lime Unit girls.

* HistoricalVillainUpgrade: The final villain of the piece is [[UsefulNotes/RasputinTheMadMonk Rasputin]], here presented as an evil Raimu user who plans to TakeOverTheWorld.

** PlayingWithFire: Momen
** MakingASplash: Sarasa
** ExtraOreDinary: Kinu
** BlowYouAway: Rinzu
** GreenThumb: Asa
* AFatherToHisMen: Captain Kaji
* FestivalEpisode: The OVA
* GoingCommando: In the first OVA, Sarasa puts on a gaudy pair of lucky underwear for what she thinks is a confession with Shintaro. After seeing that her friend/rival Rinzu went without panties, Sarasa promptly removes hers. Then it turns out ''everyone'' went without them.
-->'''Sarasa''': You're all cheaters!
** Momen also does this while the one pair of panties she owns is being washed.

* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:Major Date, and Sophia.]]

* {{Malaproper}}: Sarasa

* {{Miko}}: Kinu

* NakedApron: Momen wears one to clean the bathroom. On "Onii-chan Day", ''everyone'' wears one.
** And in most NakedApron scenes, the underwear worn in the TV version is conspicuously absent on DVD.

* RecycledINSPACE: Basically, it's ''VideoGame/SakuraWars'' [-IN THE RUSSO-JAPANESE WAR-]. This is justified, as Satoru Akahori (the original scriptwriter of ''Sakura Wars''), created the series.
** The original VisualNovel is the same as above, and also [-AS AN H-GAME!-]

** First, all of the girls (even Sophia's code name) are certain types of fabric.
*** Specifically, Momen = cotton, Asa = flax, Sarasa = calico, Kinu = silk, Rinzu = satin.
** Secondly, the Lime Unit get their surnames from famous Japanese generals. The first name of the general that inspired them is used for their Raimu.

* VoodooDoll: Kinu has several of them, including personalized ones for every member of the crew. She uses them for impromptu puppet shows, {{Companion Cube}}s, and is unafraid of impaling them with nails to stop her friends from getting in her way. On multiple occasions.
** Not to mention one particularly disturbing bonus ImagineSpot sequence featuring a naked Kinu and a human-sized talking voodoo doll...
* WeaponOfChoice:
** Swords: Momen
** SimpleStaff: Asa
** Archer: Rinzu
** TheGunslinger: Kinu
** BladeOnAStick: Sarasa

* HistoricalVillainUpgrade: The final villain of the piece is [[RasputinTheMadMonk Rasputin]], here presented as an evil Raimu user who plans to TakeOverTheWorld.

->''[[UsefulNotes/RussoJapaneseWar It is the 37th year of the Meiji Era]]. At the edge of the grand continent of Eurasia, the echo of guns resounded. Japan was still a weak country at the time. Their existence depended on the fortress protected by the army of evil. And the ones who faced it were delicate girls. This is a story of love and inspiration of five young girls and one young man who assisted them.''

* BoobBite: Provides the page image. Momen was experiencing a very specific version of MeatOVision, and saw Sarasa's chest as meat buns.
