Line 49:
* [[Info Dump]]: Justified through the conceit of students receiving supplementary instruction on history and geography in the first book / episode, and Wil getting his friend up to speed on Ikstova in ''Allison II''. Lampshaded in episode 14 of the anime, when Lillia complains to Treize about his reading the Rachika tourist guidebook aloud.
* [[Karma Houdini]]: Colonel Aikashia makes a living of "neutralizing" threats to peace, along with any bystanders that happen to get in the way. Yet, in spite of all the duplicity and the body count he incurs in his first appearance, all is forgiven once it's revealed that {{spoiler|he's Allison's father}}.
* [[Kill Me Now or Forever Stay Your Hand]]: Major Travas has a subordinate whose father he killed when she was a child. Another member of his team tells her that the Major knows why she probably wants to murder him -- and [[The Atoner|has warned the rest of the group '''not''' to stop her]] if she decides to do so.
* [[King Incognito]]: Subverted twice: {{spoiler|Fiona}} is actually {{spoiler|impersonating her twin sister to fulfill her dying request}}, while among the main cast, only Lillia is unaware that {{spoiler|Treize}} is royalty.
* [[Larynx Dissonance]]: Will sounds rather young for 17.
* [[Locked Out of the Loop]]: Lillia is a shining, clueless example of this trope.
** When she finds out {{spoiler|about Treize}}, she says he'd better not claim he never intended to keep it from her. Oddly, it seems to mollify her when he replies that he'd hoped '''never''' to tell her. (This doesn't fit too well with his earlier statement that he'd tell her {{spoiler|on the day he proposed}}....)
* [[Luke, I Am Your Father]]: For Allison: {{spoiler|Colonel Aikashia}}, and for {{spoiler|Lillia}}: {{spoiler|Major Travas}}.
* [[Meaningful Name]]: Lillia, Treize, and Major Travas. [[Justified Trope|Justified]], since the characters' parents (or even they themselves) chose these names for their significance.
Line 79 ⟶ 81:
* [[Spin Offspring]]: Not so much a spin-off as a continuation, ''Lillia and Treize'' stars the children of the original's core quartet. The main cast of the ''Allison'' books are still there, too.
* [[Story Arc]]: Two, divided into three sub-arcs each.
* [[Strong Family Resemblance]]: Lillia looks, acts, and ''[[Nana Mizuki|sounds]]'' the same as her mother, except for her hair and eyes. Said color she gets from her father.
* [[That Man Is Dead]]: {{spoiler|Allison's father}}, and later, {{spoiler|Wil}}.
** Although for having discarded his original identity, {{spoiler|Wil}} is remarkably involved with his past life.
