** [[JokeCharacter Mysterious Heroine X]] is likewise developed beyond being a one-note character.
* BabiesEverAfter: [[spoiler:Hassan of the Hundred Persona's chapter focuses on her supporting Shirou during the birth of his and Sakura's first child.]]
* BigBrotherMentor: How Cu Chulain treats Shirou during their chapters together.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: [[spoiler:Both of Mephistopheles'schapters are him holding one-sided discussions with the reader regarding Shirou, Sakura, and the nature of fiction.]]
* BreatherEpisode: Occasionally a straight comedy or light and fluffy chapter will be squeezed in between far more serious sections.
* ChristmasEpisode: Santa Alter naturally gets this chapter.
* DarkFic: While many of the chapters and scenes are fairly light and fluffy, some of the veer hard into this territory.
* DuelToTheDeath: [[spoiler:Cu Chulain teaches Shirou how to force one of these via rune magic, and Shirou uses it along with Gae Bolg to defeat Kuzuki.]]
* EnragedbyIdiocy: Mash Alter's constant state of mind when dealing with her master.

* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: [[spoiler:The end of Iskander II sets one of these up after Gil kills Illya.]]
* SamaritanSyndrome: A great many of the servants call Shirou out for having this attitude, especially as he often doesn't have the power, skill, or wealth to actually make good on his ideals.
** Caster of Midrash and Illya call him out for refusing payment for work, pointing out that he's setting himself to be taken advantage of, and actually hurting his future ability to do good.
* SliceOfLife: A few of the chapters are little more than examinations of what Shirou's home life might be when a servant is around.
* {{Yandere}}: Kiyohime's stereotypical behavior is given a bit more depth. While she is madly in love with her master thanks to her madness enhancement, she's tangentially aware that *something* is wrong with her mind and constantly struggles against it.
