Line 16:
* [[An Arm and a Leg]]: Chapter Two briefly mentions missing limbs among the injuries inflicted by the first abyssal attacks.
* [[Anyone Can Die]]: Dead major characters include {{spoiler|Takanami, Yamashiro and Ayaka herself.}}
* [[As the Good Book Says...]]: In Chapter Three, “What profit you if you save the whole world and lose your soul?!” is asked of Uileag.
* [[Atomic F-Bomb]]: Combined with [[Cluster F-Bomb]] and [[Punctuated! For! Emphasis!]], Uileag shouts in Chapter 39 that all the medals he gained were not "WORTH A DAMN! FUCKING! CUNT! THING!"
* [[Bloodier and Gorier]]: Canon has almost exclusively [[Clothing Damage]], very occasional blood or injury, and only abyssals suffer [[Body Horror]]. Here, however, [[Reality Ensues]] is in play regarding the effects of high-powered naval artillery and antiship bombs, and similar to ''[[Freezing]]'', [[Clothing Damage]] is not about titillation, but comes with gore, even maiming and ''[[Terminator]]''-style degloving down to the endoskeleton.
Line 30 ⟶ 31:
** The first shipgirl to sink is {{spoiler|Takanami, callsign Riptide}} Four.
** The abyssal attack on the Task Force VALKYRIE armada that claims the lives of {{spoiler|Ayaka and Yamashiro}} is the fourth one directly involving one of their leaders.
* [[Full Name Ultimatum]]: Ayaka gives Uileag the full three-name treatment in Chapter Three out of her [[Anger Born of Worry]].
* [[Fusion Fic]]: This world sees the events of an [[Alternate Universe]] ''[[Your Name]]'' happen in the backstory and it progresses into the abyssal attacks and returning shipgirls of ''[[Kantai Collection]]''.
* [[History Repeats]]: Once again, an attack on Pearl Harbor is begun with a command to climb a mountain.
* [[Inelegant Blubbering]]: {{spoiler|Uileag}} crying in Chapter 39 is explicitly described as "loudly and uglily".
* [[Ironic Echo]]: In Chapter Three, Uileag gives not being able to leave anyone to die as the reason for his actions in Chapter One, something that Ayaka gives him grief over. In Chapter 36, {{spoiler|it's Ayaka's turn to do just that, something she acknowledges in Chapter 37.}}
* [[Libation for the Dead]]: In Chapter 39, {{spoiler|Uileag offers this at Ayaka's grave.}}
* [[Mama Bear]]: In Chapter Two, Uileag's mother erupts in a fierce enough motherly anger as to frighten the war-hardened senior NCO father.
Line 47 ⟶ 51:
** [[Schindler's List|"There will not be generations because of the abyssals."]]
** [[Linkin Park|He was angry. He should be. It wasn't fair.]]
* [[Snow Means Death]]: In Chapter 37, it is snowing as {{spoiler|Ayaka has a premortem conversation with Uileag.}}
* [[Sorry That I'm Dying]]: In Chapter One, {{spoiler|a badly-hurt Uileag who thinks he's dying asks that his apologies be passed along to Ayaka.}}
* [[Statuesque Stunner]]: Ayaka is a towering 6'8", appropriate considering how her original ship self was among the longest of its generation.
