Line 13:
Tropes in ''[[Kiwaguro no Brynhildr]]'' include:
* [[Arbitrary Skepticism]]: Ryouta can't believe Kuroha's powers are magical, despite believing in aliens. He tries to argue aliens can be real, but it seems to disregard the fact that even if aliens existed, the probability of them being on Earth for some reason are very, very low.
* [[Accidental Pervert]]: Ryouta grabbed Kuroha's boobs once by accident.
** [[Unprovoked Pervert Payback]]: Kana insists that Ryouta wants to molest her ''every single time'' he's around; she even does this when he {{spoiler|'''carries her out of a burning house'''.}}
Line 18 ⟶ 19:
* [[Bilingual Bonus]]: The ''Harnessed'' is the button-like thing on the nape of magic users. {{spoiler|Due to how things are transliterated to Katakana, it's easily possible to miss that the real transliteration is ''her nest'' (which gets written in the same way), an obvious reference to where resides the parasite inside the magic users' bodies.}}
* [[Break the Cutie]]: All the {{spoiler|magic users}} come prebroken for your convenience. You could think that further breaking is on the menu and we wouldn't blame you for it, anyways.
* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: What almost everyone thought Kuroneko was for believing the Earth has been take over by aliens.
* [[Detached Sleeves]]/[[Opera Gloves]]: Part of Kuroha's school uniform.
* [[Eldritch Abomination]]: {{spoiler|The horrendous thing that remains when a magic user is destroyed with her Harnessed's down-left button gives all vibes of this. Might be an alien life form that parasites the magic users' bodies and gives them their powers, but this is unconfirmed.}}
Line 23 ⟶ 25:
* [[Fan Service]]: Averted as of chapter 9, in stark contrast with previous works.
* [[Gorn]]: Okamoto indulges in this each time more and more; just compare the post-accident Ryouta in episode 1 to {{spoiler|the fight with Saori in chapter 9}}.
* [[Identical Stranger]]: Names and appearance are similar, but Kuroha doesn't have the moles on her armpit. And, of course, Kuroneko died when she was a child, and we only see Kuroha as a teenager.
* [[Hair Decorations]]: Kazumi wears a headband.
* [[Fundamentally Female Cast]]: All of the {{spoiler|magic users}} shown until now are teenage girls.
Line 28 ⟶ 31:
* [[Leotard of Power]]: Saori wears one.
* [[Mysterious Transfer Student]]: Kuroha's arrival sets the whole plot in motion.
* [[New Transfer Student]]: Kuroha Neko, that affirms to have magical powers and have super-strength.
* [[Seers]]: {{spoiler|Kana is one.}}
* [[Self-Fulfilling Prophecy]]: Averted. Predictions of the future change if the people involved change their behaviour by being informed of a prophecy.
* [[Spoiler Opening]]: The manga begins with Kuroha bleeding on the floor and Ryouta stabbing her, screaming "If only you didn't exist.. If only you have stayed dead!". All of this in a desolated and annihilated landscape, with the shadow of a girl watching the scene the only extra detail. Knowing the [[Elfen Lied|author]], [[It Got Worse|this can't possibly end well]].
* [[Take My Hand]]: Kuroneko grabs Ryouta's hand when he falls off a ledge in the beginning of the manga. It don't works like intended and both kids fall off dozens of meters.
* [[Tall, Dark and Bishoujo]]: Kuroha has traces of this (she only lacks the tall part a bit).
* [[Techno Babble]]: Ryouta's explanation of RSA<ref>the de-facto example of real-life asymmetric [[Encryption]]</ref> leaves ''a lot'' to be desired.
* [[The Needs of the Many]]: Kuroha says to Ryouta to not leave the observatory after he decides to not miss the bus because if he did ride the bus, a lot of more people would die from a failing boulder that if he just walked to his destiny.
* {{spoiler|[[Time Master]]: Saori's second power is to revert time back for one minute.}}
* [[Transfer Student Uniforms]]:
