Line 77:
** Electra does the same when she finally learns that Nemo actually ''does'' care about her, and tries to shoot herself. Nemo talks her out of such behavior.
* [[Dropped Glasses]]: Minor subversion: the glasses are repaired almost immediately to demonstrate the technological capabilities of the Nautilus.
* [[Early Teen Hero]]: Both Nadia and Jean are fourteen. This age is crucial here, as the series gets dark ''real quickly''.
* [[Everything's Better with Princesses]]: Subverted. The people who call Nadia "princess" rarely seem to have her best interests in mind.
* [[Evil Chancellor]]: [[Big Bad|Gargoyle]] used to be this, before pulling off a (mostly) successful coup and moving on to better things.
Line 165 ⟶ 166:
* [[Official Couple]]: Nadia and Jean
* [[Offscreen Villain Dark Matter]]: averted by Gargoyle's mooks reporting how his dark matter I.E. commerce in wool and banking, is proceeding and how it is paying for things like his submarine and the Tower of Babel.
* [[Opposite Gender Protagonists]]: Borderline case. While Jean and Nadia are very much a pair (the epilogue to the series makes that a clear with their eventual marriage), and Jean does contribute significantly to the development and resolution of the storyline, he seems like a secondary character rather than a co-lead much of the time, subordinate to Nadia, around whom the story revolves.
* [[Oracular Urchin]]
* [[Orphan's Plot Trinket]]: The Blue Water.
Line 189 ⟶ 191:
* [[Self-Destruct Mechanism]]: Jean install one on the cockpit of the plane it build, Nadia touches it {{spoiler|resulting in her and Marie's death. Though it was [[All Just a Dream|just a dream.]]}}
* [[Shadow Archetype]]
* [[Short Title: Long Elaborate Subtitle]]: ''Nadia'' is one word. ''The Secret of Blue Water'' is five.
* [[Shout-Out]]: To ''[[Indiana Jones]]'', ''[[Gamera]]'', ''[[Tarzan]]'', ''[[Uchuu Senkan Yamato]]'', ''[[2001: A Space Odyssey]]'' and [[Gunbuster|others]].
** And, of course, multiple shout outs to Jules Verne's works that weren't directly used in the plot.
