Line 36:
** Once again, an attack on Pearl Harbor is begun with a command to climb a mountain.
** The sinking of {{spoiler|Takanami occurs in the Solomon Islands from an attack led by Northampton, but not before she plays a vital part in the counterattack.}}
** The sinking of {{spoiler|Yamashiro occurs in Filipino waters asonce she is covering a retreatagain,}} though also inverted as it takes place in day rather than night.
* [[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.}}
Line 42:
* [[Mama Bear]]: In Chapter Two, Uileag's mother erupts in a fierce enough motherly anger as to frighten the war-hardened senior NCO father.
* [[Non-Fatal Explosions]]: In Chapter One, {{spoiler|Uileag gets caught in an abyssal bombing that briefly knocks him out, but he is still able-bodied enough after he regains consciousness that he can lead multiple rescue expeditions. It takes a second bombing, which has him [[Blown Across the Room]], to inflict internal injuries that lead to a month-long coma.}} One Corpsman remarks on his luck.
* [[Offscreen Moment of Awesome]]:
** The fall and later retaking of Pearl Harbor take place at some point in between Chapters One and Three. The readers get naught but brief comments as to what happened during these two vital battles.
** Chapter 32 starts in the midst of a campaign to liberate Southeast Asia, one that has retaken Singapore by the start of Chapter 36, but none of the intermediary battles are covered onscreen.
* [[Pun-Based Title]]: It is an obvious play on ''Kimi no Na Wa'', the Japanese title for ''Your Name''.
* [[Shout Out]]:
