{{tropelist}}
* [[Accidental Pervert]]: Tsutomu's dad tries to do [[Bathtub Bonding|bond with his son in the bathtub]] with his son, but finds a naked Birdy in his place.
Line 82 ⟶ 83:
* [[Four Eyes, Zero Soul]]: {{spoiler|Shyamalan}}.
* [[Freaky Friday Flip]]/[[Man, I Feel Like a Woman]]: Happens in ''Decode'' -- {{spoiler|After obtaining injuries during a battle in episode five of the second season, Birdy passes out and Tsutomu awakens to find himself in Birdy's form and [[Shapeshifter Mode Lock|unable to change back]]. This lasts through Episodes 6 and 7, which are the aformemention [[Whole-Episode Flashback]] examples, where he journeys into her memories and is resolved by the end of episode seven when he finds Birdy and things are returned to normal}}. The manga is more appropriate to [[Man, I Feel Like a Woman]] since {{spoiler|the first thing Tsutomu does when he realizes he's in Birdy's body is to grab his chest and groin in disbelief. His time before journeying into Birdy's past is shorter, and he at least again checks his groin after returning to his body just to be sure that everything was proper again}}.
* [[Gambit Pileup]]: deconstructed. In the beginning, there are several factions involved, along with multiple wild cards, a chessmaster, and neutral but interested parties. And that's just the first season, on the alien side. However, instead of there being any [[JustAll AsAccording Plannedto Plan]] and [[I Know You Know I Know]], bad intel and lack of information reigns supreme, with things devolving into a chaotic world where the law of unintended consequences dictates the outcomes of events more than anything else. No one really knows what the hell is going on, except maybe the viewer, and even they, who see a lot more than any given character must think quite a bit and infer a lot to figure out what really happened and why.
* [[Genetic Engineering Is the New Nuke]]: {{spoiler|In ''Decode'', it's revealed that Birdy and Nataru were the result of a program to bred super-soldiers via bioengineering}}.
* [[Gory Discretion Shot]]: To varying degrees. {{spoiler|Faroid}}, in a way, and {{spoiler|his sister later}}.
