Line 68:
** A very severe one, point of fact, to the degree that they'd be fighting words to almost anyone else -- Warrior cultures take manliness very seriously.
** {{spoiler|An actual lady is used as a body double, and because of her, people suspect that Prince Canute really is a lady.}}
* [[Epiphany Therapy]]: {{spoiler|Coinciding with his [[Rage Against the Heavens]] moment, when Canute listens to Willibard's explanation of love, he quickly gets what he is supposed to be [[Utopia Justifies the Means|doing with his life]] and [[Took a Level Inin Badass|starts ordering people around]].}}
* [[Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas]]: {{spoiler|Askeladd loves his mother so much that when he swears on her name, he means it. When he swears on his father's name, however...}}
* [[Evil Uncle]]: Given the [[Black and Gray Morality]] of the series, it's more [[Blood Knight|Kill-Happy]] great-uncle ( {{spoiler|Thorkell to Thorfinn}}).
Line 122:
* [[Like Father, Like Son]]: {{spoiler|Canute and Sven.}}
* [[Little Stowaway]]: Thorfinn.
* [[Lonely Atat the Top]]: Enforced with King Canute. {{spoiler|Due to [[Drunk with Power]]}}.
* [[Ludicrous Gibs]]: Whenever Askeladd, [[Blood Knight|Thorkell or Thorgill]] fight. Slicing and dicing human bodies effortlessly as they do kind of breaks the realistic aspect of the manga…
* [[Made a Slave]]
Line 182:
* [[Those Two Guys]]: Thorgimm and his brother Atli.
* [[Time Skip]]: After the prologue
* [[Took a Level Inin Badass]] Several characters, most notably {{spoiler|<s> Prince</s> King Canute, after his bodyguard and father-figure is killed; he learns from the [[Nietzsche Wannabe|disaffected priest]] that what the bodyguard felt was not "love" but "preference," that God is basically a [[Jerkass]], and comes to the revelation the only way humans will ever attain Paradise is to say [[Calling the Old Man Out|"screw you" to the Almighty]] and make it on earth with our own hands.}} The level however, is more in Social Badass than in Combat Badass, but undeniably [[Badass]] nonetheless.
** After succeding the throne, he also takes one in [[Took a Level in Jerkass|jerkass]].
* [[Trickster Mentor]]: Askeladd likes to think he is more a mentor to Thorfinn then nemesis.
