Line 32:
* [[The Alcoholic]]: Gengan's portrayed as one in ''Otome Tairan''; the locals claim she's seldom seen sober.
** Chouryou may be the other; anyone who can gulp down wine like there's no tomorrow probably has to be one.
* [[Alternate Universe]]: {{spoiler|1=According to Chousen in the first game, Kazuto didn't travel back in time, but rather entered an alternate world, whereas his home is the "real" one. Moreover, Chousen mentions the existence of more than one alternate reality, each with different possible scenarios happening, including the scenario of the original ''[[Romance of the Three Kingdoms]]''. Potentially, this implies that every storyline in the entire franchise (i.e. the [[Visual Novel|Visual Novels]], the [[Animated Adaptation|Animated Adaptations]], the OVAs, manga and the [[Omake|Omakes]]) are all canon}}.
** {{spoiler|He also mentioned a real "true world" where all the concepts serve as a base for all the "alternate worlds" and that someone in the "true world" might be watching Kazuto, he also mention the creation of other "alternate worlds" based on that world. It's the player, and the new worlds are either the new game pluses or the sequel.}}
* [[Amazon Brigade]]: The Five Tiger Generals, but by ''Shin Koihime'', all factions have their little own brigade, even if they're not named.
Line 277:
* [[The Power of Rock]]: The battle against the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the ''Shin Koihime'' anime finale is fought not with weapons, but with songs. The Chou Sisters vs. Enjutsu, Choukun and Kakuka, though almost everyone else joins in for song [[The Power of Friendship|powered by friendship]]
* [[Princess Curls]]: Enshou and Sousou
* [[Promotion to Parent]]: Kannu tries to ''avoid'' this at all costs, but everyone she meets keeps [[Is That Cute Kid Yours?|thinking she's Chouhi's mother]]
** When she convinces others she isn't, people usually start seeing their relationship [[Girls Love|in a totally different light]], which she finds ''worse''
* [[Psycho Lesbian]]: Sousou is a borderline case, since she does get better, but some of her actions in the first season are ... rather questionable.
Line 324:
** Bachou once told the others she wet herself a little. When asked by Kannu what she had just said, she tries denying she said anything at all
* [[Sweat Drop]]: Kannu among others
* [[Tactical Rock-Paper-Scissors]]: Battles in the visual novels: archers beat spearmen, spearmen beat calvarycavalry, calvarycavalry beat archers
* [[Take My Hand]]: Kannu and Chouun pull this off in episode two of season one
* [[Talking in Your Sleep]]: Bachou, Chouhi, and Moukaku at various times; the latter two have also been known to bite in their sleep
Line 335:
* [[Theme Tune Cameo]]: In the finale of ''Shin Koihime'', Kakuka has a flashback of her singing the ED after getting out of the shower, and the group performs the OP during their battle of the idol singers
* {{spoiler|[[Through His Stomach|Through Her Stomach]]: Several times througout the series, but most prominently featured at the very ending of ''Otome Tairan'': Sonken to Ryomou when the last piece of the food the latter wanted was taken by Sonsaku; then Sonsaku attempts one to Shuuyu mouth-to-mouth; then much later Chouryou trying it on Kannu before they are interrupted by Ryuubi.}}
* [[Token Mini-MoeLoli]]: Chouhi and later, Koumei. Kouchuu's daughter Riri might count
* [[Tome of Eldritch Lore]]: In the ''Shin Koihime'' anime, there exists a magical book "Crucial Keys to the Way of Peace", with a slight mind of its own, thus even if used for good, will cause misfortune and strife. Was in the possession of {{spoiler|the [[Idol Singer]] trio and used by them to further their career, and being sought after by Kada to have it sealed away. Ukitsu took possession of it by the end of ''Shin Koihime'', and used it in ''Otome Tairan'' to bring the [[Sealed Army in a Can|Terracotta Army]] to life and launch his conquest of China. After Ukitsu is killed by Ryuubi, Kada finally seals it, which in turn causes the Terracotta Army to revert back into ordinary clay statues}}.
* [[Too Long; Didn't Dub]]: Because all translations insist on using the direct Japanese equivalents of the characters' actual Chinese names, most of the international audience don't even know it's based on [[Romance of the Three Kingdoms]], and those who do have an incredibly hard time following along trying to keep track of who everyone's supposed to be.
