3!! ''Club der roten Bänder'' contains examples of:
4* CoolOldGuy: Toni's grandfather fits the bill.
5* ArbitrarySkepticism: Leo and Jonas have doubts about the existence of an afterlife, despite visiting Hugo in his realm and Toni talking to Hugo regularly.
6* ComicallyMissingThePoint: Toni, as a result of his Aspergers does this a lot.
7-->'''Alex:''' Well, that really is at the ass of the moor. (German saying meaning far away)
8-->'''Toni:''' Which moor?
9-->'''Alex:''' Sorry, I meant that it's really far away.
10* Test/{{Dramatic Thunder}}: Happens at the start of episode three. It's the cue to Leo's outburst and refusal of further chemotherapy.
11* Test/{{Hospital Gurney Scene}}: Toni enters the hospital in one of these. Alex presumably had one of these, too.
12* LoveTriangle: Leo, Jonas and Emma
13* Test/{{Patient of the Week}}: Even though it's less patient of the week and more roommate of the week.
14* TitleDrop: in Episode 2. Justified in so far as the series is about the epynomus club.
