* [[Already Met Everyone]]: With the amount of relatives, childhood friends, and former shipmates in the game (and new relations forged all the time), it often turns out like this.

* [[Primal Scene]]: [[Fan Nickname|Rou]] walked in on both [[Fan Nickname|Zou]] and Angel multiple times as a child, to the point where he just got sick of it -- only to be scarred again upon seeing them ''together''.

* [[Purely Aesthetic Era]]: While the overall style of the setting is Victorian-esque, the game is quite accepting of elements that wouldn't normally fit, even with the allowances typically made for steampunk. For example, the "difference engines" used for communication are essentially simplified laptops, running on technology too advanced to be handwaved as steam or clockwork. Weaponry from any period up to roughly [[World War One|WWI]] is fair game. And then there's modern things that snuck their way in for comedy purposes, like the Sky Love Hotel...

* [[Put on a Bus]]: Inevitable when characters in the game drop for some reason or another. A few are removed through [[Bus Crash|crueler methods]], but usually only for comedy... fried squid, anyone?

* [[Putting the Band Back Together]]: Many characters, particularly Rikku, express a wish to reunite the crew of the ''Way'' throughout the course of "season three". Once he joins the ''Convoy'', Ichigo promises to do just that someday?

* [[Took a Level In Badass]]: Many characters due to [[Character Development]], but the most notable example would be [[Hellsing|Pip Bernadette]], who started out as very much a mercenary-type to spy on the captain of the ''4423'' and ended up being the somewhat heroic (with cases of [[Deadpan Snarker]]''/''[[Only Sane Man]] due to the crew) First Mate to [[Transformers|Optimus Prime]] himself onboard the ''Convoy''.

* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Besides all the canon ones, [[Ace Attorney|Manfred von Karma]] seems to have a thing for BLTs. ''Perfect'' BLTs, that is.

* [[Zettai Ryouiki]]: Nena and Sara have this going on in almost all their outfits, adapted for the period. One actually did wear more proper Victowardian clothing in the past and discarded it for the disguise, and the other has been forced into it in memes and fanart.
