Line 10:
* [[Bourgeois Bohemian]]: The Grand Guru, Zero Janvier's opponent in the presidential elections. Lest you get the mistaken idea that there are any nice people besides Marie-Jeanne and possibly Ziggy (whose biggest sin is ambitions of stardom) in this world, [[Evil vs. Evil|the Guru's platform, in contrast to Janvier's plans for martial law, was all about violence and destruction in hopes of forcing humanity to start over again]]. The character has since been deleted from the show.
* [[Crapsack World]]
* [[Does This Remind You of Anything?]]: Zero Janvier expounds at great length upon how [[Adolf Hitler|becoming an evil, free-world-conquering bastard was his second career choice after he realized he'd never be a great artist]]. (Also, the man owns a nightclub called Naziland. It's not exactly subtle.)
* [[Downer Ending]]: Zero Janvier wins the election, Johnny and Crystal make a terrorist attack on the Naziland, {{spoiler|presumably killing Ziggy who finally was on his way to stardom by getting a DJ job in the club}}, Crystal {{spoiler|dies in the police chase following the terrorist assault (in some versions, Johnny is also heavily wounded, and it is hinted that he will not make it)}}, Stella {{spoiler|leaves Zero after he made clear that she was no longer of use to him, and goes back to her alcoholic ex-idol life}}, and Marie-Jeanne {{spoiler|turns to drugs to escape reality (this one is subtle, but is a possible interpretation of her final song, "the world is stone". That, and the fact that Marie-Jeanne litteraly translates to Marijuana).}} Sadia is unheard of but probably {{spoiler|suffered the same fate that Ziggy, being in the club shortly before}}.
* [[Dystopia]]
* [[Gray and Grey Morality]]
* [[Heel Face Turn]]: Johnny Rockfort falls hard and fast for Cristal after he and Sadia abduct her, and this makes him realize that he'd rather build a new, better world with and for her than simply wreck the old one. [[Hourglass Plot|Too bad Cristal's decided she's totally fine with destruction now herself...]]
* [["I Am" Song]]: "A Child of Pollution", "The Ballad of the Automatic Waitress", "The Northern Suburbs"
** Every character (except Crystal) has one:
*** "A Child of Pollution": Ziggy
