* Joe: [[The Everyman]], who weaponized all of his buddies.

* And who wrote the letter directing students to beat on Hometown?

 

* [[Action Mom]]: So, without the infamous band of weapon-wielding residents to protect it, Homeville must be a piece of cake for bandits, right? Right? [http://www.true-magic.com/view.php?id=83 Dead] [http://www.true-magic.com/view.php?id=84 wrong.] [[Badass Family|Well, now we know where Joe and Jen got their skills...]]

* [[Aerith and Bob]]: Kiku, Henson, Bob, Joe and Jen.

* [[Badass Bookworm]] - Bob. [http://www.true-magic.com/view.php?id=47 Catches a sword while reading a book]. [http://www.true-magic.com/view.php?id=49 He then continues on to later threaten friend of sword thrower, with said book]. At the time of writing this, Bob is featured on the [[Badass Bookworm]] page.

{{quote| [http://www.true-magic.com/view.php?id=119 "That'll teach you! Callin' my buddy a ponce!"]}}

* [[Bishonen]] - Everywhere you look! It's gotten to the point that men tend to wear their (long) hair in a braid, since its the only way to tell them from the women.

* [[Corrupt Church]] - The priests in the prologue are so corrupt, {{spoiler|they even turn against their own god, Lucideus.}}

* [[Close Call Haircut]] - {{spoiler|In the first run, Kiku accidentally pokes Joe's eye out. In the current run, a similar scene is shown, but instead, Joe is only given a [[Close Call Haircut]]. He later gets another one to even up the other side.}}

* [[Death By Origin Story]] - Done on a larger scale. {{spoiler|Lucideus may or may not be dead, but his absence is why the priests were able to continue their abusiveness towards commoners, which led to the events of the comic.}}

* [[Dude Looks Like a Lady]]: Check out panel [http://www.true-magic.com/view.php?id=88 three:] Long [[You Gotta Have Blue Hair|blue hair?]] Check. Heart-themed necklace? Check. Frills? Check. Actually a girl? Sorry.

* [[Everyone Is Single]]

* [[Fiery Redhead]] - Kiku again.

** [[The Hero]]: Joe or Henson

** [[The Lancer]]: Kiku

** [[The Big Guy]]: Henson. he is not [[The Stoic]], [[He Who Must Not Be Heard]], or otherwise noncommunicative. Just - the biggest guy on the team. He also shows major leadership capabilities, and so overlaps with [[The Hero]].

* [[The Generic Guy]] - Bob and Joe, more so in the first run. Even in the reboot, their names are catch-alls for [[The Everyman]].

* [[Holier Than Thou]] - The priests, to the point of being abusive to their subjects.

* [[Ho Yay]]: Joe accidently imagining Henson as a stripper.

* [[Improbable Weapon User]]: Inverted in an amusing fashion with the protagonists. Instead of using farm implements as weapons, they use weapons as farm implements (and, when the situation calls for it, as weapons...).

* [[Imagine Spot]]: Joe thinking of staying at the nightclub. He sees Bob as a magician, Kiku hunting rats, himself as a ladies' man, and [[Ho Yay|Henson in a thong]].

* [[Shout Out]]: "[[Lord of the Rings|It buuuuurns us!]]" and [[Discworld|dogs with orange eyebrows.]]

* [[Show Some Leg]]: Fails utterly when Jen tries.

* [[Wholesome Crossdresser]] - Jen, to get into a nobles' school.

* [[Wild Hair]] - Kiku's hair is all over the place.
