{{tropelist}}
* [[Added Alliterative Appeal]]: The English localization title is both this and a [[Pragmatic Adaptation]], since the original title would have literally translated to "Huge Breasts Fantasy".<ref>"Funbags" is a common slang for huge breasts, and it rolls off the tongue better in English.</ref>
* [[Amazingly Embarrassing Parents]] : In Luceria's route, {{Spoiler|her father decides to discuss her sexual activities with her groom. Right in front of her, and using very obvious metaphors. Luceria of course becomes very embarrassed}}.
* [[And Your Reward Is Clothes]]: [[Invoked]] by Lute if he chooses to become a royal commander, as one of the things he requests before taking the job is to get a luxury bra, which the King easily requisitions for him, assuming it's for a mistress of Lute's {{spoiler|And he's not wrong, its for Shamshiel}}.
* [[Arranged Marriage]]: Isis and Motaire is one. In the royal guard path, Motaire reveals he never wished for it, and that is the reason he cares little about his fiance.
* [[Babies Ever After]]: In Roxanne's route, {{Spoiler|Roxanne becomes pregnant of Lute and they spent their days as an happy couple}}.
* [[Bastard Boyfriend]]: Motaire to Isis, whom it's obvious he cares nothing for. {{spoiler|They are engaged, but he had every intention of canceling the engagement as soon as possible and doesn't care about Isis at all, who actually wanted it to work on her end}}.
** He shaves off the first half of this trope completely by the end of the harem route, after a [[Heel Face Turn]], and gets back his groupies from the beginning of the game, thus keeping the second half of the trope.
Line 20 ⟶ 23:
* [[Compressed Adaptation]]: The anime adaptation. While managing to cover most of the high points of the plot that are depicted, most of Lute's characterization is glossed over and without knowledge of the game you'd assume he was more a [[Handsome Lech]] than the [[Chivalrous Pervert]] he is in the game.
** The Demonic Forest Arc and anything related was cut out and the character assigned to it was folded into another subplot from the game, but it would have been impossible to cover in two thirty minute episodes. {{spoiler|Motaire was also cut as a result, and Lute's backstory never comes up, leaving his assumed [[Born Lucky]] status unexplained}}.
* [[Daylight Horror]]: With the Girapon Woods having such an horrible reputation, and even Shamsiel abandoning Lute before he goes into it with Isis and some soldiers with an warning he should not go there, any scenes on the day at the place reeks of this.
* [[Dirty Old Man]]: The Prefect is a barely veiled [[Lolicon]], and the Prime Minister isn't above making a few perverse remarks in Emeralia's direction, albeit mostly to [[Troll]] her over her hate of men.
* [[Distaff Counterpart]] Maia of "Kuroinu: Kedakaki Seijo wa Hakudaku ni Somaru" in terms of appearance, is basically an H-game, [[Gender Swapped]] version of Lute. Seen [https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/d8/a3/fd/d8a3fdc75644ba917fd243c19c41b005.jpg here] Not surprising since both animes were the work of Majin Label, but it's a rather unfortunate [[Fan Disservice]] when one considers what happens [[Downer Ending|in her story.]]
Line 39 ⟶ 43:
** Shamshiel's abilities are crippled by the Prime Minister in the Harem Route, as he was [[Properly Paranoid]] enough to foil her advantages, and even tries to invoke the trope in a literal sense when Gladys tries to stop him {{spoiler|by revealing he has an actual gun and lampshades how in the battle between sword and gun, the gun wins}}, only for Shamshiel to trick him into {{spoiler|wasting his ammo}}, thus negating his own [[Game Breaker]], made possible because Gladys destroyed the barrier he set up {{spoiler|that prevented Shamshiel's entry}}.
* [[Gameplay and Story Integration]]: Usually, a hentai game protagonist having the abilities of [[Sex God]] is not explained or given a [[Hand Wave]] at best. In this game, Lute's ridiculous level of sexual stamina is actually story relevant: {{spoiler|he's essentially half incubi}}.
* [[Gondor Calls Forfor Aid]]: In the Harem Route, after the Prime Minister gets desperate, {{spoiler|murders King Hagel and frames Lute}}, Shamshiel recruits the other ladies Lute has slept with to help Lute out.
* [[Handsome Lech]]: Motaire, definitely. {{spoiler|He gets a lot better in the Harem Route}}. Lute comes off as one in the anime adaptation instead of being a [[Chivalrous Pervert]] due to most of his backstory and characterization not making it in.
* [[Happily Married]]: In Luceria's route, {{Spoiler|she and Lute marry at the end, they're happy and all points out for a bright future ahead of them}}.
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: Generals Felzen and Zant in the royal commander arc. {{spoiler|Gladys Wackenheim}} as well, though they weren't really all that evil in the first place. {{spoiler|Even General Schlamm does this in the Harem route}}.
** MOTAIRE, of all people, even he pulls this off {{spoiler|in the Harem route}}. Kinda helps all the times his [[Pride]] took a beating and the fact {{spoiler|Bobon}} [[Mistreatment Induced Betrayal|basically treated him so much worse than he ever had it under Lute]] made him come to a [[Heel Realization]] and so he decided to help the right guy out for once. {{spoiler|And Felzen was the one who got the ball rolling with a [[To Be Lawful or Good]] proposition to him. The other ladies also take turns kicking him in the metaphorical balls over how much of a [[Dirty Coward]] he's become, which only further prods him along}}. {{spoiler|And the real clincher for his face turn is when he realizes the Prime Minister only considers him a pawn, and when Lute fills in the rest of the blanks in the puzzle of what's going on, his face turn is a done deal}}.
* [[He Knows Too Much]]: In the royal guard path, that is the main villain's motivation to get rid of Lute, because he thinks he is getting too close to his plans by becoming one. {{Spoiler|Bernstein even invokes the trope by name in a monologue a little after Lute is nominated}}.
** [[High Heel Face Turn]]: {{spoiler|Emeralia}}, though not completely the first time round, though she does give up information to Lute she otherwise wouldn't have divulged. {{spoiler|Her more complete betrayal of the Prime Minister occurs in the Harem Route, in which we learn she is actually a bastard daughter of one of his concubines, and she eventually attempts to free Lute before the Prime Minister can execute him because her guilt in helping frame him for murder overcomes her. It fails and she winds up in the same cell as Lute, but her face turn is completed}}. {{spoiler|She is rewarded in the harem ending by becoming one of his wives and taking her now dead father's job}}.
* [[H-Game POV Character]]: Lute is an extremely positive examples of a Type III A. His endings tend to end with him in Type I territory, though a few have shades of Type II A.
Line 51 ⟶ 57:
** {{spoiler|Princess Luserina is at least half-nymph on her mother's side}}.
* [[Hot Witch]]: Shamshiel is quite adept in magic. {{spoiler|So is Emeralia, who even look the part}}.
* [[Humans Are the Real Monsters]]: My god, if all the flack the protagonist gets from every [[In the Back|Traitorous]] [[Slime Ball]] or [[Opportunistic Bastard]]'s. On top of all the [[Apathetic Citizens|uncaring, dimwitted civilians]] and all around [[Jerkass|unsympathetic douche bag]]'s who're all [[Unfit for Greatness]] is any indicator. It's a wonder Lute finds better company among demons than with his fellow humans, let alone how a Kingdom run by a bunch of finger pointing jerkbags has lasted this long to begin with.
* [[Hypocrite]]: A lot of the jerks Lute has to jump through hoops for in order to earn the respect of spend most, if not all, their time pointing fingers at how great a failure he is. When all of their shortcomings due to [[Took a Level in Jerkass|crappy personalities]] make you wonder just what makes any of them so great to begin with. Lute pretty much sums up the three generals [[What the Hell Hero|who put a hit out on him]] with a few simple yet accurate words.
{{quote|"They're rotten old men, yeah. But the higher you rise in ranks the more rotten you get, I guess."}}
Line 58 ⟶ 63:
*** She defrosts in a different way in the Harem Route, and even before then on Luserina's route comes to greatly respect him.
* [[Impossible Task]]: Lute and others are sent on one of these at lest thrice a week. Irregardless of the route this regularly bites Rubin and similar conniving individuals in the ass in several ways. For example, {{Spoiler|In Isis's route the Prime Minister sends Lute on a hopeless assignment into the Demon Woods well aware he wouldn't ever come back, not only does he and his partner return alive, Lute's being of the demon kings decent is also revealed. Luckily this puts him closer to his wouldbe assassin to the point she (Isis) went to warn him. In Shamseil's Route Rubin sends Lute back into the forest with thugs on his payroll with orders to kill'im, instead [[Cute Monster Girl|his succubus]] saves him and gives him inclination to awaken his true memories as the demon king against the [[Inadequate Inheritor|Butthead Demon Prince]]}}.
* [[Interrupted Intimacy]]: In Luceria's route, {{Spoiler|she and Lute are caught just before having sex by her father the king. Despite the concern of everybody else at his reaction, the king actually takes it pretty lightly}}.
* [[Jerk With a Heart of Gold]] {{spoiler|Shamsiel, she's a succubus and yes she HAS killed people before by feeding on them, but she's also pretty much the nicest and most helpful person to Lute in the entire story...once he wins her over. Isis, Lute's former classmate from the Royal Knight's academy, treats Lute with very little respect due to him graduating dead last in their class, but it turns out this was actually just her venting her frustrations from her struggling to get her relationship with her arranged fiance Motaire to work (it was failing due to him cheating on her and not caring for her at all), and once she starts seeing Lute's strengths and kindness as opposed to Motaire's egotistical and skirt-chasing ways, she falls in love with Lute. Felzen, Schlamm, and Zant also all saw Lute as a worthless loser at the start of the story, but once they see him in a better light, they become some of his biggest supporters and allies (though they try to play it off initially). Gladys, a seemingly traitorous woman who leads a rebellion against the king, turns out she and her father were gathering the rebels under them to keep the damage to a minimum AND to force the king to take better care with his political reforms. Motaire... His is buried deep, deep, deeeeeeeeeep within him, beneath his ego, jerkass, skirt-chasing, and snobbish ways, he's actually a loyal knight wanting to become a great leader someday for his kingdom. It takes a while (and several ass-kickings to humble him), but he eventually makes the change for the better and it certainly helps him out}}.
* [[Irony]]: Isis is stuck deep into it. Despite being a beautiful young woman which obviously a lot of guys would fall on their feet at the idea of marrying her, her groom treats her as a burden since he doesn't love her.
* [[King Incognito]]: {{spoiler|Lute, he just doesn't remember. He's actually the half-human son of the former king of demons, who died when he was young. His mother raised him as a human, partially to prevent anyone from trying to kill him over that particular fact, as he's the true heir to the demon king throne. Shamshiel even knew him from way back when, which also explains why she seems to know him when they first meet}}.
** He becomes an overt king in a different manner on the Harem Route: {{spoiler|King Hagel was planning to step down and hand him the job sooner or later, the Prime Minister then murders Hagel and tries to frame Lute to stop this from happening. Lute and the rest of the cast with the slightest hint of morality manage to stop him, and Lute becomes the next king afterwards}}.
* [[Laxative Prank]]: Before Lute's chess match with Gladys, he was given a pie that was secretly tainted with laxatives, as part of Wan Coan's plot to sabotage Lute. {{spoiler|It only serves to make Lute to rapidly make his chess moves in a manner that he ends up winning the game, despite Gladys being a chess prodigy.}}
* [[Lolicon]]: The Prefect of Boan hates his wife, calling her a "cow" (due to her [[Gag Boobs]]), and Shamshiel informs Lute the guy like girls [[Squick|"young"]].
* [[Marshmallow Hell]]: An offhand remark from Lute in the royal guard path reveals the reason for Isis's deep dislike of him: he willingly inflicted this trope on himself during a training duel with her.
* [[Me's a Crowd]]: Lute gets a chance to pull this trope off due to [[Applied Phlebotinum|"split seeds"]]. He uses them for [[If You Know What I Mean|what you'd expect the protagonist of of a hentai game would be expected to use them for]].
** Becomes a [[Chekhov's Gun]] when {{spoiler|Emeralia}} tries to seduce him. {{spoiler|They help Lute overpower her magic and foil a plot by the Prime Minister to make him a mind controlled slave}}.
Line 91 ⟶ 98:
* [[Spell My Name With An "S"]]: The game script has some minor typos, like "canon" when referring to "cannons".
** Wan Coan is, to his frequent consternation, referred to as "One Coin".
* [[Suicide Mission]]: Being sent to the Girapon Woods is considered one in-universe.
* [[Take A Third Option]]: Saying to Roxanne you will return to Boan unlocks a third option when the King asks Lute what task he will take on next, the third option being exactly that. {{Spoiler|Taking it triggers the Roxanne ending}}.
* [[Tampering with Food and Drink]]: Happens three times with Lute:
** First in Roxanne's story line with the [[Jerkass|Prefect and his bootlicker]] spiking Lute's drink with aphrodisiacs, luckily the good bad duke of duplicity [[Hollywood Heart Attack|keeled over in the act]] before he could act on anything.
** After, in Bustenhalter [[Running Gag|Gwom Buin]], {{spoiler| who'd been [[Running Both Sides|playing both rebels '''and''' the kings men against each other]] under Prime Minister Rubin Von Bernstein's orders, had spiked his food with laxatives before the big chess match against the enemy leader}}. This all [[Nice Job Fixing It, Villain|backfired spectacularly]] on the dirt bag ending in his exposure as a traitor and eventual suicide.
** {{spoiler|Bernstein himself had prepared poisoned wine to give the thorn in his side and was real persistent in sharing when Lute kept refusing it, again said individual skirted disaster [[Big Damn Hero|thanks to Felzen's arrival]]}}.
* [[Teacher-Student Romance]]: What happens between Luceria and Lute if Lute becomes her teacher in certain routes.
* [[Tenchi Solution]]: The Harem Route. Can be considered the canon ending since the game set after the events of this one uses it as it's jump off point.
* [[The Man Behind The Man|The Woman Behind The Man]]: Two. The obvious one is Shamshiel for Lute. The not so obvious one is Esmeralia, who is apparently this for the Prime Minister, though she's apparently not entirely pleased with this role. {{spoiler|We find out why this is so in the Harem Ending and she eventually defects completely and becomes Lute's right hand woman}}.
