Line 29:
* [[Defeat Equals Friendship]]: More like Defeat equals crush - Hyuga defects to Gunzou's force after being defeated, due to her fixation on Iona-sama.
** Takao looks likely to become this as well, on top of her [[Stalker With a Crush]] attitude towards {{spoiler|Gunzou}}.
* [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?]]: The Hakugei III {{spoiler|becomes the first human made ship to sink not only one, but [[Beyond the Impossible|TWO Fleet of Fog battleships]]. Granted, they used stolen Fleet of Fog tech, but it was still a very big deal.}}
* [[Easy Logistics]]: Subverted. The Fleet of Fog's interdiction of sea and air transport routes is adversely effecting Japan's economy, being an island nation reliant on trade (a repeat of what happened in [[WW 2]]). Other nations are also stated to be affected; the one nation that seems to be doing alright despite the Fog is the United States, as it's one of the few nations that are completely self-sufficient.
* [[Game Breaker]]: In-universe, the weapons, armor and shielding of the Fleet of Fog fall right into this trope. Humanity's combined fleets couldn't put a dent in them 17 years ago.
Line 56:
* [[Robot Maid]]: Several run the Osakabe mansion and are realistic enough that they aren't revealed as such for several chapters.
* [[Scenery Porn]]: Ark Performance shows what drawing Gundam manga for years does for skill at drawing mecha and landscapes. The 2400p versions of the scanlated manga are recommended to see just how much detail they put into everything.
* [[Screw the Rules, I Have Money]]: Invoked by Makie when a cab driver attempts to protest the apparent little girl trying to catch his cab by herself. His reaction to her SPECIAL GOLD CASH CARD is priceless.
* [[Shout Out]]: All of the Fleet of Fog ships are replicas of real life WWII era warships.
* [[Show Within a Show]]: Hisonic Miku-chan, an anime popular with Makie Osakabe, Kyouhei and Iona ([[A Is]] like anime, too).
Line 69:
* [[Wave Motion Gun]]: While the Fleet of Fog on the whole has dramatically superior armaments and shielding to the human fleets, Battleship-class vessels come equipped with 'Super Heavy Cannons', which despite the name fill the trope nicely, since the weapon tends to ''bend space around it and it's firing path''.
* [[We Can Rule Together]]: After cornering the 401 and its crew, Zordan suggests Chihaya to join the Fleet of Fog under his boss, {{spoiler|Chihaya's father.}}
* [[What Measure Is a Non
* [[Yanks With Tanks]]: The US Pacific Forces who were stranded in Japan; as Fleet of Fog interdiction of air and sea routes makes returning them to the US impossible, they've been absorbed into the JMSDF as the Unified Forces.
* [[You Are Number Six]]: ''I-401'' is the ship's initial designation, though her mental model is called Iona by the/her crew. {{spoiler|Later on, we find she's one of a series of submarines, as we meet 400 and 402, who look exactly like her, though dressed differently.}}
