* [[Teleport Spam]]: Aiko. She goes to New York for pizza, Australia for sushi, and gladly acts as chauffeur for Akane and Shampoo when they travel to and from L.A.

** Whoever's behind the bank robbery and other related crimes has been known to provide their agents with the means for a crude one-shot teleportation spell.
* [[Teleportation Sickness]]: Happens to everyone the first time Aiko teleports them, then goes away and never bothers them again.

* [[Tempting Fate]]: Happens ''twice'' in the vicinity of the party at the Tendo Dojo -- once when someone asks "what could possibly happen?" and again when someone asks "what ''more'' could happen?" Both times Fate comes through.

* [[Unusually Uninteresting Sight|Unusually Uninteresting Event]]: "The Great Twitch", which occurred when the team destroyed the time machine, is universally acknowledged as a thing that happened (literally -- beings 8 billion light years from Earth noticed it), but no one seems particularly bothered by or concerned about it, beyond generating a metric ton of [[Conspiracy Theories]]. (Except those who knew enough to suspect or realize what it was.)

* [[Utility Belt]]: Although it's not literally kept in a belt, Nabiki is starting to rival [[Batman]] for the sheer amount of useful ''stuff'' she's carrying around. At Jun's urging, she's begun accumulating all manner of high- and ultra-tech equipment which she keeps in her personal [[Hammerspace]] "just in case" -- including a lot of emergency rations and water, several [[Surveillance Drone]]s that Jun can interface with, and even a couple space suits.

* [[Voices Are Mental]]: Nabiki notices that the she can recognize everyone using the SI's communication system by their "voices", which sound like their speaking voices even though no sound is involved in the process: the outgoing "signals" are picked up from the appropriate part of the "speaker"'s brain and received "speech" is inserted into the auditory nerves. Despite pondering it for a while, she can't figure out how and why it works like that.
* [[Voluntary Shapeshifting]]: Although everyone repeatedly calls it an "illusion" spell, it's very clear that it's actually genuine shapeshifting. Then again it started as a simple disguise spell before it contracted a serious case of Creeping Featurism.

* [[Weirdness Magnet]]: Ranma uses the term several times, and claims it's an inevitable side effect of being as powerful as they are.
