10	!!Tropes in ''drowning, drowning'':
11
12	* BigEater: During the second day, Amphithoe spends the entire duration of the party at the snack table. By the end of the party, she is so full that she passes out and has to be carried home.
13	* CollectionSidequest: If you collect any seashells and give them to Dynamene during the first day, they'll be used as decorations for Eudora's party. Collect all 33 of them, and Dynamene will reward you with a friendship bracelet.
14	* DeusExScuseMe: At the end of the party, Amphithoe suffers a FoodComa and Clio and Eudora have to carry her home. Since Maia is all alone now, there is nothing stopping her from [[spoiler:going into the trench]].
15	* FreudianTrio: While Amphithoe and Clio are RedOniBlueOni, respectively, Eudora acts as a balance between the two, being more responsible than Am, but also more relaxed than Clio.
16	* InterruptedSuicide: Maia fully expects to drown when she dives into the sea for the first time, but Amphithoe is able to help her breathe underwater. This is accidental, because Am thinks Maia just wants to play with her and has no idea what Maia's actual intentions are.
17	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Clio is very angry at Amphithoe for bringing Maia into the sea, and tries to get Maia to leave... but it's only because she thought Am brought Maia by force. When Clio finds out Maia dove into the sea willingly, she apologises for misunderstanding and becomes Maia's friend.
18	* MysteriousPast: Not much is known about Maia's backstory, but there are ''heavy'' implications that she's suffered a lot while living on land and has become depressed and suicidal as a result.
19	* RedOniBlueOni: Amphithoe and Clio. Am is a carefree and impulsive GenkiGirl who tends to accidentally cause trouble for herself and her friends, while Clio is a serious and organized OnlySaneWoman who [[CloudcuckoolandersMinder tries to keep Am under control]].
20	* TheStinger: There is a post-credits scene that only appears if you [[HundredPercentCompletion complete the sidequests for Dynamene, Melite, and the Sardine Queen]]. [[spoiler:It's a picture of Maia smiling happily with her new friends.]]
