Line 23:
* [[Dark Magical Girl]]: In the 1989 version, Sally gains a rival in one of these: the [[Broken Bird|embittered, emotionally broken]] Karen, daughter of her dad's old enemy. {{spoiler|Obviously, she has a [[Heel Face Turn]] when defeated.}}
* [[Ear Worm]] The opening theme music has been one for ''generations''.
* [[EverythingsEverything's Better With Princesses]]: Sally and Selene.
* [[Healing Hands]]: Subverted. Sally is ''not'' a healer, so if she needs to heal people, she must either follow quests (first series - one {{spoiler|one of the Hanamura triplets}} is seriously injured, and she has to go searching for the cure) or learn special and complicated spells (second series - she has to combine [[Elemental Powers]] to even think of healing {{spoiler|a young dancer's leg before a special performance}}).
* [[Fallen Princess]]: Karen, which makes her a [[Dark Magical Girl]] after her [[Jerkass]] father and her are kicked out of Astoria for the first's actions. {{spoiler|Sally's adoptive brother Cab turns out to be a Fallen Prince too, as the son of the Royal Couple of the destroyed Gold and Silver Kingdom, entrusted to the custody of Sally's parents when he was a newborn.}}
Line 38:
* [[Plucky Girl|Plucky]] [[Rebellious Princess]]: Sally, and how. While she doesn't openly rebel against the Magical World itself, she is NOT likely to change her mind when her parents confront her on something.
* [[Precocious Crush]]: Poron gains one on Yamada-sensei, Sally's [[Cool Teacher]]. Who is [[Happily Married]], and his wife is ''just'' about to give birth. Whoops.
* [[Star -Crossed Lovers]] ''and'' [[Puppy Love]]: In an episode of the 1989 series, Yoshiko falls in love with a gentle and free-spirited boy named Koutarou, who happens to be a genie of the weather. {{spoiler|Yoshiko also is gravely sick and almost dies, so Koutarou has to leave so the cold weather will go with him and she'll get better.}}
* [[Strong Family Resemblance]]: The five Hanamuras look a LOT alike. Six, if we include the [[Missing Mom]] (we get to see a photo of her)
* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: Yoshiko and Sumire. Karen and Sally. Sally and Selene.
* [[Visual Pun]]: One of the openings has the cast in a South Seas setting so that Sally (or "Sarii") can be seen in a sari.
* [[Witch Species]]
* [[Worlds Most Beautiful Woman]]: Sally's mother is specifically mentioned to be this. So much that, when she was a young princess, a [[Vain Sorceress]] put her into sleep, and Sally's dad had to give her a [[True LovesLove's Kiss]] to save her. [[Snow White (Literature)|Hm, where have we seen this, huh?]] {{spoiler|Little did the Queen know, the Witch would later return and try her hand at getting revenge, now targetting Sally and a bunch of human girls...}}
* [[Yamato Nadeshiko]]: Both Sally and her [[Hot Mom]]. Also, Selene.
