11eyes: Difference between revisions

* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]: Yukiko seems like a ditz most of the time, {{spoiler|until the glasses come off.}}

* [[Crystal Prison]]

* [[Cute Mute]]: Kukuri.

** In a less cute way - Lisette in the introduction, when her throat was torn and she was trying to scream.

* [[Damsel in Distress]]: Yuka.

* [[Dark Action Girl]]: Pretty much all the female Dark Knights.

* [[Dark Chick]]: Superbia

** The Larva are now [[Ridiculously Cute Critter|Ridiculously Cute Critters]].

** Kururi can speak, but nobody wants her to. Everything she says is [[Sound Effect Bleep|bleeped]], everything she draws is [[Pixellation|pixellated]].

** Liselotte is now Avaritia's dominatrix.

** Then it becomes a [[Hot Springs Episode]], revealing that Yuka's [[Anti-Magic]] has turned into [[The Nudifier]]. It also [[Gender Bender|turns Kakeru and Takahisa into girls]].

* [[Eldritch Location]]

* [[Enemy Mine]]: {{spoiler|After learning the truth about Liselotte, the girl trapped in the crystal, the main characters help the surviving Dark Knights to fight Liselotte. They fail in episode 11, but succeed in 12.}}

* [[Evil Tower of Ominousness]]: Landmark Tower in the real world is replaced by six pillars where the Black Knights reside.

* [[Expy]] - Kakeru Satsuki bears more than a passing semblance to Minato Arisato from [[Persona 3]]. And someone capitalized on the fact that Misuzu resembles Mitsuru, and came up with [http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/483699 this.] ('''Warning Danbooru link''')

* [[Eyepatch of Power]]: To cover Kakeru's [[Mismatched Eyes]].

* [[Eyes of Gold]]: Known specifically as the Eye of Aeon. It allows Kakeru to see the future. The real value of the eye is that it allows the user to assimilate previous users' experience, memories and above all, to see different possibilities of the future and realize the one that the user desires.

* [[Fan Web Comic]]: Pixiv user Zouazarashi drew fancomics featuring the Black Knights around the time of the game's debut, and is now [[Promoted Fanboy|drawing them for the anime's website]]. The Black Knights act a lot goofier in these than they do normally.

* [[First-Name Basis]]: Yuka worries about this between Kakeru and Misuzu in the anime, noting a change in dynamics between them.

* [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: {{spoiler|Avaritia holds Liselotte from behind in episode 12 to ensure that she gets banished to an alternate dimension where she hopefully can't escape. Unfortunately he gets sucked in as well.}}

* [[Hot for Student]]: Saiko-sensei, the school nurse, though she smokes, drinks and is frequently sniffing around for virgins. Kakeru wonders how she became the nurse in the first place.

* [[Humans Are Bastards]]: Liselotte's motivation for wanting to [[Kill'Em All]].

* [[I Cannot Self-Terminate]]: {{spoiler|When Takahisa starts to lose control of himself, he asks Yukiko to kill him.}}

** Lisette {{spoiler|before the final battle, begs for Kakeru to kill her.}}

* [[Instant Runes]]: Acedia, Yuka, Misuzu, {{spoiler|Shiori}}

* [[I Know You Are in There Somewhere Fight]]: Kakeru to Liselotte in her final [[Cross Vision]] view. "Lisette Weltall!" "No, I'm Liselotte Werckmeister--" "Lisette Weltall! Listen to me!"

* [[I Will Protect Her]]: Kakeru's motivation for learning how to fight and protect Yuka.

** Interesting, Yuka gender-flips this trope when invoking it on Kakeru later in the anime.

* [[Karma Houdini]]: Incoming apocalypse be damned, how can someone get away with brutally murdering three of the most sympathetic characters, one of whom was completely innocent. Well, {{spoiler|Misao}} managed to pull it off somehow.

** Despite becoming overly clingy, putting a razor blade in another of the cast's tea and willingly unleashing the [[Big Bad]], {{spoiler|Yuka}} somehow gets out of punishment without one single character calling {{spoiler|her}} out.

* [[Ominous Latin Chanting]]: The OP ("Lunatic Tears...") has ominous chanting of the [[Seven Deadly Sins]]. Until it's revealed that these are, in fact, the names of the Black Knights. [[Theme Naming]] runs among them. Ominous Chanting is present in ''CrossOver'''s OP ("Endless Tears...") and the anime's OP ("Arrival of Tears") as well.

* [[One-Man Army]]: Verard. Though he has some help for the second one.

* [[Oral Fixation Fixation]]: Takahisa always has something in his mouth, be it a cigarette or food.

* [[Ordinary High School Student]]

* [[Pinch Me]]: {{spoiler|Episode 11 is what might have happened had Kakeru not been prepared. His vision comes to an end just after the credits, leading to him snapping back into action.}}

* [[Phantom Zone]]: Time comes to a halt during the Red Night, and any property damage that occurs there doesn't transfer back to the real world.

* [[Quirky Miniboss Squad]]: The Black Knights, with Avarita functioning as [[The Dragon]].

* [[Red Sky, Take Warning]]

* [[Screw Destiny]]

* [[Seven Deadly Sins]]: A very prominent motif in the story.

* [[Shout-Out]] - There is a room full of shout outs in the visual novel. Here's the image [http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/253313/11eyes-air_gear-alphonse_elric-artist_request-azum\].

* [[Shut UP, Hannibal]]

* [[Sugar and Ice Personality]]: Misuzu

* [[Take a Third Option]]: Instead of trying to do the episode 11 plots, Kakeru pretty much stabs himself. It ends up working and he recovers later.

* [[Talking in Your Dreams]]: Verard, a knight with the same kind of [[Mismatched Eyes]] as Kakeru, appears in his dreams every time that the Red Night occurs.

* [[Tears of Blood]]: Kakeru, usually when weird supernatural stuff starts happening.

* [[Theme Tune Cameo]]: Kakeru's ringtone is a midi version of the OP. Yuka's cell has the ED.

* [[When All You Have Is a Hammer]]: Takahisa's method of fighting is with fire, since that's all he has in the Red Night area.

* [[Whip Sword]]: Invidia. It resembles a human spine.

* [[White Gloves]]: Misuzu, when she's not using her powers.

* [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]: Liselotte, or rather, Lisette. After what she's gone through in the Crusade...
