* MyNameIsNotDurwood: In Episode 4, Team Blue nicknames [[UnfortunateNames Good Turtleland III]] "Charlie."

* IWillProtectHer: [[spoiler: Ikumi]]'s overriding motivation for the later half of the series, after [[spoiler: Kozue]] is assaulted in his absence. This leads to several murders and a few more attempted. But hey, UtopiaJustifiesTheMeans, right?

''InfiniteRyvius'' (''Mugen no Rivaiasu'') is an anime series set in the year 2225 AD. A NegativeSpaceWedgie called the "Geduld Phenomenon" has created a sea of plasma stretching across the solar system in-line with the orbital plane of the planets, leading to a rise in space travel and the colonization of many planets. The space station Liebe Delta is a training center for children who wish to become astronauts. However, the station harbors a dark secret, which leads terrorists to sabotage it and send it plunging into the Geduld. All of the instructors on board sacrifice their lives to save the students. In the aftermath, 486 children of varying ages find themselves aboard the Ryvius, a mysterious spaceship which was concealed within the core of Liebe Delta. With limited supplies, no adult supervision, and hostile forces still after them, they struggle to escape their pursuers and form a stable society. All they want is to be rescued - but a GovernmentConspiracy has convinced the media that the Ryvius has actually been commandeered by the same terrorists who destroyed Liebe Delta, so finding safe harbor will be no easy task.

* AloofBigBrother: Subverted: Yuki is Kouji's ''younger'' brother and is cooler, stronger, taller, and better looking than the nebbish, goodie-two-shoes Kouji.

* HeyItsThatVoice: Koji is [[Manga/DeathNote Light Yagami]], Yuki is [[{{Inuyasha}} Miroku]], Kozue is [[BlackLagoon Gretel]], Neya is [[GundamSeed Lacus Clyne]], Airs Blue is [[MegaManNTWarrior MegaMan]], Juli is {{Barbie}}, Ikumi is [[{{Silverwing}} Shade]], Faina is [[StormHawks Piper]], Criff is [[ShakuganNoShana Shana]], Lucson is [[EdEddNEddy Edd]], and Cullen is [[XMenEvolution ShadowCat]].

* CameBackWrong: A rather loose case: [[spoiler:Neya based her humanoid form off the body of a dead soldier floating out in space near the ''Ryvius'' at the time of some [[NoodleIncident vaguely-alluded to incident]]. That soldier was Anjay Viscuess, Conrad Viscuess's daughter. This leads to Conrad momentarily thinking his daughter had come back from the dead when Neya confronts him on the bridge of the ''Geshpenst'']]

* EmotionlessGirl: Neya begins the series as a blank slate; by episode 22 she's capable of talking and acting like a normal human, as being around the kids has helped her learn by osmosis what it's like to be human

* ChildrenAreInnocent: Played surprisingly straight with [[CuteShotaroBoy Pat]], who maintains his innocent personality throughout the series.

* {{Shotacon}}: Possibly Ran's feelings toward [[CuteShotaroBoy Pat]].
