Line 32:
* [[Anti-Villain]]: Believe it or not, {{spoiler|The Dictator of Life}} appears to be one of these. Although whether or not {{spoiler|he's attempting to destroy Second Life}} is of his own will or not is still up in the air. In the manga, at least.
* [[AI Is a Crapshoot]]: An interesting twist. {{spoiler|1=The boss NPCs have developed self-awareness, and recent chapters have it that they're planning to overthrow the humans.}}
* [[Berserk Button]]: You got something against clams, huh?
* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]: Doll is rather cute and adorable, and is treated like everyone's little sister. But {{spoiler|when someone attacks Prince, she sets Bonds of Endless Torment on her, and in response to the protest of "Don't kill her, we need to question her," Doll deadpans, "Don't worry. She'll just suffer, she won't die. But her player herself will be in so much pain she'll wish she was dead."}}
* [[Bishonen]]: The sheer number of them is astounding.
Line 42:
** Wacko and Dandan act like ditzy [[Sickeningly Sweethearts]] - and ''then'' you learn that they are the 9th best warrior and 5th best summoner in the whole game. Wacko's also the overlord of the western continent.
* [[Curb Stomp Battle]]: A nice example is during the tournament arc - the Odd Squad do this to their opponent after eating some delicious roasted meat.
* [[Dark-Skinned Blond]]: Wicked and Sunshine.
* [[Death Is Cheap]]: Justified because it is all in a RPG
* {{spoiler|[[Disease Bleach]]: Happens to the [[Big Bad]] as a result of his chronic illness.}}
* [[Dropped a Bridget On Him]]: A variation of it as {{spoiler|Wicked finds out about Prince's real identity}}.
* [[Dynamic Entry]]: When Prince changes jobs and gets a [[Cool Sword|shiny black sword]], he isn't impressed. Cue Lolidragon 'announcing' her presence with a kick to the spine.
* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Prince, of course, for starters...There's also Kenshin, Arctic Fox, Gui...we'll just go with the entire male cast.
* [[Even the Guys Want Him]]: Prince is just ''that'' pretty.
* [[Expy]]: "Demon Lord Kenshin" is an obvious reference to Rurouni Kenshin. Kenshin even has his trademark scar.
Line 57:
* [[GMPC]]: Lolidragon is one, but she's limited to reporting bugs and complaints to the game company as well as creating tables out of nowhere. In the Odd Squad, she acts as [[Mr. Exposition|Ms. Exposition]]. Oddly enough, her thieving activities are worse then those of the people she catches.
* [[Happily Married]]: Feng Lan's parents.
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: {{spoiler|It just takes one request from Doll to get Caelus to switch sides...[[Subverted Trope|or not]].}}
* [[
* {{spoiler|[[If It's You It's Okay]]: Gui's side story reveals that he feels this way about Prince.}}
* [[In the Name of the Moon]]: "I am the pretty wizard of love and justice! Doll will punish you in the name of the skull!" as in chapter 6.
* [[Lampshade Hanging]]: (Where'd that table come from?)
* [[Loads and Loads of Characters]]: 50 and counting.
* [[Long-Haired Pretty Boy]]: Gui and Wicked, for starters.
* [[Magical Girl]]: Doll seems to have taken her "in the name of the moon" directly from [[Sailor Moon]].
* [[Miser Advisor]]: Yu Lian
Line 69:
** For bonus points, Gui, not knowing Prince is really a girl, initially flirts with her because he's amused to see a boy drooling over him.
* [[NPC]]: {{spoiler|Prince picks up two very powerful NPC allies during an unplanned excursion to another continent/server. They are self-aware, [[Foreshadowing|hinting that]] [[AI Is a Crapshoot|something]] [[Foreshadowing|deeper may be going on]] in the depths of the game.}}
* [[Odango Hair]]: Doll wears her hair like this.
* [[Only Known by Their Nickname]]
* [[Parental Neglect]]: The protagonist's parents are almost constantly honeymooning, and they lack any particularly emotionally close bond with their children, only going as far as telling Feng Lan to get married to a [[Bishounen|bishie]] so there would be some son-in-law eye-candy around.
Line 76:
* •[[Shipper on Deck]]: Feng Lan's mohter wants her to be with Wicked, but accepts Gui as a suitably attractive alternative. Her friends also force her to date the two to determine who would make a better boyfriend.
* [[Pronoun Trouble]]: An epic case. Gui thinks Prince is male while Zhuo knows she's female. When they have a conversation in real life, they refer to Prince as "he" and "she" respectively without letting the secret out; while the third person pronouns in the written [[Chinese Language]] can properly distinguish genders, when spoken, they sound the same.
* [[Ragtag Bunch of Misfits]]: Prince's team in the beginning, aptly titled the "Odd Squad."
* [[Red Baron]]
* [[Sweet on Polly Oliver]]: a {{spoiler|:If It's You, It's Okay:}} variation; Gui doesn't realize Prince is female, but he falls in love with "him" anyway. Only later does he meet Feng Lan in real life and {{spoiler|connect her personal movements and actions to Prince's and realize they're the same.}}
* [[Summon Magic]]: Doll.
* [[The Dividual]]: Feng Lan's mom and dad, Jing and Yun, and Wacko and Dandan.
* [[Tournament Arc]]
