* HopeCrusher: Hibana tries to be this, belittling Iris' kindness and Shirna's heroic dreams. [[ShutUpHannibal Shinra took it as a sign to try harder.]]

* NebulousEvilOrganisation - Haijima Industries hasn't done much in the story, but they are distrusted by most people within the Fire Force and the majority of their employees are MadScientists.

* HisStoryRepeatsItself: After spending 12 years trying to puzzle out the truth behind his family's tragedy, Shinra finally discovers what actually happened: [[spoiler:His mother transformed into an Infernal and caused the fire that killed his parents. Eventually, she escaped and left no physical evidence behind.]] This revelation once again leaves Shinra searching for answers and that monster with no idea where to start, but with very different motives.

* HisStoryRepeatsItself - Shinra spends years trying to convince people that he didn't kill his family and that their was a monster in his house the day they died. After years of study and investigating to find out what that monster was and where it is, he finally gets an answer. [[spoiler:His mother turned into an Infernal and was that monster. She escaped and nobody knows what happened to her after that.]] This once again leaves Shinra searching for answers and that monster with no idea where to start, but with very different motives.

* HornedHumanoid: A horned Infernal appeared in Shinra's home 12 years ago. Another one attacked Asakusa Asakusa two years ago. These Demon Infernals are too durable to be destroyed normally. It demands an explosion strong enough top level a city to defeat them. Also, nobody knows how they are created. When a White Hood eats a "firebug" and became a ''demon'', his partner is shocked.

** Oubi is never not training; this is how he, the lone muggle, ensures he can keep up with a squad of fire-users.

* ConvectionSchmonvection: Played with. Average humans avert this by being vulnerable to heat and fire, while Second and Third Gen fighters have a heightened resistance to heat and fire. Although this resistance can be overcome by objects and attacks that are too hot.

* EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: In the beginning, the Fire Company helmets read 'fire soldier'. After the series was branded 'Fire Force' internationally, the helmets changed to read 'Fire Force'. WordOfGod claims this helped to highlight the organised nature of the group and looked cool.
* EldritchLocation: The Adolla World is a place where fire burns infinitely and without fuel or emissions. It also changes depending on who is viewing it. Shinra [[spoiler: and Shō]] see a blank white void with burning bones scattered around and other other oddities. [[spoiler: Burns and '52']] see the dimension as a dark cosmic void featuring twisted architecture and grotesque ''things'' that leave them screaming on the floor.
* TheEmpire: Tokyo is not the name of the capital city anymore. It is the name of the empire the cast lives within. Also doubles as a TheTheocracy. It's not all that bad as it allowed human civilisation to reform and allowed refugees passage upon the Great Disaster.
* EmpireWithADarkSecret - As more is revealed this seems more and more likely. [[spoiler:It appears that the power source for the entire empire is fuelled by HumanSacrifice. Also, the Church is hiding the truth behind it's foundation.]]

* EquivalentExchange / BalancingDeathsBooks: One serial killer's excuse for why he's a killer: as a fire-fighter he saved loads of people so it's only fair he balances things out by killing loads of people. This was ''before'' he got superpowers...

* HisStoryRepeatsItself - Shinra spends years trying to convince people that he didn't kill his family and that their wwas a monster in his house the day they died. After years of study and investigating to find out what that monster was and where it is, he finally gets an answer. [[spoiler:His mother turned into an Infernal and was that monster. She escaped and nobody knows what happened to her after that.]] This once again leaves Shinra searching for answers and that monster with no idea where to start, but with very different motives.

* HornedHumanoid: A horned Infernal appeared in Shinra's home 12 years ago. Another one attacked Asakusa Asakusa two years ago. These Demon Infernals are too durable to be destroyed normally. It demands a explosion strong enough top level a city to defeat them. Also, nobody knows how they are created. When a White Hood eats a "firebug" and became a ''demon'', his partner is shocked.

* IdenticalGrandson: Captain of Company 4 has the exact same hair colour, eyebrows and glasses as his granddaughter in Company 6. Shinra is pretty shocked when he notices.
* JurisdictionFriction: Each Fire Force Company is in charge of a certain ares and they really don't like the other groups interfering with their work. Meaning, Company 8 often needs an excuse to get involved without risking a fight.

* KnightInShiningArmour: Arthur seems to genuinely believes he's this. [[spoiler: Sho has been brought up like this by the cult as well.]]

* LightIsNotGood: The cultists' white outfits are a Shinto purification theme crossed with a KnightTemplar. Interestingly the cult's crosses are black while the fire brigades', their religion's, and Arthur's is white (or at least uncoloured)

* MagneticHero: Shinra, has a habit of drawing in allies. So far he's won won over power-worshiping sadists, a "barbarian", an antisocial engineer and some of their followers. His power is called ''Adore''-a Burst, after all.
* TheManBehindTheMan: All the Fire Force companies suffer from this. The organisation is meant to be a collaboration between three different groups to SaveTheWorld, but the individual companies have strong loyalties to one of the founding or supporting groups. Company 7 avoids this as they are just a group of ruffians is too powerful for the government to ignore.

* MegaCorp.: Haijima Industries have a tremendous amount of power because the manufacture ''all of the Fire Forces equipment''. This means that they have control over Company 5.
* TheMole: [[spoiler: Licht is secretly working with Joker]]

* NayTheist: With the Evangelist being treated like a divine being, a lot of the Fire Force count. [[spoiler: Burns and Five-Two are explicitly acknowledge her as God and then spend the rest of their lives working against it.]]

* NiceGuy: Shinra is so unflinchingly nice to everyone he meets. The only person in his life who doesn't consider him a friend is Arthur, and that's because he see's him as rival instead.
* NunsAreMikos: The Fire Soldiers use nuns to confirm last rites onto a flame-person to purify it when its destroyed. Ironically the Japanese "traditionalists" of the Seventh brigade don't use nuns ''or'' mikes.
* ObliviouslyEvil: The serial killer within Company 1 seems detected from reality to the point he doesn't understand why his victims are terrified of him. After he's finished with one victim, he simply and cheerfully tells his next that they have to be strong and brave if they want to succeed.

* PlagueDoctor: One of Company Captains, Giovanni, wears a plague doctor mask.

* PowerIncontinence: First Generation people can't control their flames, leading to either spontaneous combustion or a transformation into a Infernal. Second and Third Generations have strong resistance to heat and burning as a RequiredSecondaryPowers as a countermeasure.
* PreAssKickingOneLiner: Subverted. Arthur manages to screw his up before beginning a battle, instead settling for a mere, "humph."

* ProductionThrowback: There are a lot of references to ''Soul Eater'' hidden through the series, which as Ohkubo's pervious manga.
** Akitaru's mask is simliar to Eibon.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure - The Chief of the Fire Department. Despite all the crazy schemes Obi pulls and feathers he rustles, his old Chief stands by him and supports him as much as possible. In a world of shadowy figures and questionable organisations, he seems to be the lone exception.

* RefusalOfTheCall: Benimaru, Captain of Company 7, constantly defers to his second-in-command, Konro. This is because he feels Konro's experienced and responsible approach [[spoiler: put next to his scarce of both his arms and powers to save Beni]] makes him more qualified. While everyone else sees Benimaru as a leader, he struggles to see himself as such or to trust his own judgement.

* ViolenceReallyIsTheAnswer: In order to stop the lookalike cultists from spreading chaos and distrust, Beni finally accepts his position as leader and ''orders everyone to fight each other''. Amazingly it works: United in defense of their community, the civilians gleefully pummel each other and the lookalikes in a "fight festival" while Company 7 handles the fires.
* TheVirus / ViralTransformation: The Infernal conduction is a conduction that turns people into fire monsters.

** Chapter 61 features a clash between the mysterious Joker and the Kinght's leader.

* WouldHitAGirl: Shinra literally attempts to beat some sense in to Princess Hibana. [[spoiler: Amazingly it works.]] He doesn't hold back against any of his female opponents and doing so would probably get him killed.

* WouldHurtAChild: The serial killer hidden within Company 1. [[spoiler: In addition to kicking Tamaki while she's down Rekka's responsible for turning at least 7 children into flame persons and Shinra fears he may have been responsible for the fire that burned Hibana and Iris' convent.]]
* WreathedInFlames: [[CreepyTwins Hina and Hika]] of the 7th Brigade's powers: Their flames manifest as clothes and a "mask" that resembles a {{Kitsune}}.

* ProductionThrowback: There are a lot of references to Soul Eater hidden through the series, which as Ohkubo's pervious manga.

* WhamEpisode - As a series with many masteries, Fire Force is full of these as answers to major questions.

* Obliviously Evil: The serial killer within Company 1 seems detected from reality to the point he doesn't understand why his victims are terrified of him. After he's finished with one victim, he simply and cheerfully tells his next that they have to be strong and brave if they want to succeed.

* ActionGirl: A pre-requisite for women in the Fire Force, unless they are nuns. Even the nuns put up a fight when they have to.
** The mysterious Knights of Ashen Flame organisation the Fire Force battles have high-ranking and powerful female members who can fight as well.
* AchillesInHisTent: Benimaru is the strongest person in the Fire Force but refuses to get involved with the Empire's affairs because he opposes the government. It takes a oath of brotherhood between him and the Captain of Company 8 for him to begin helping the investigation.

* AlasPoorVillain: One of the Infernals Shinra & Co. have to put down is a widower with a teenage daughter who calmly waits for his death. Shinra feels awful about killing him but has no choice.

* AntiAntichrist: Shinra is confronted with the idea he is meant to bring about the EndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt with his flames. After the shock wears off, he declares his intentions to protect people and fight against anything that endangers the world.

* ArcherArchetype / ColdSniper: The cult's archer, Arrow, is exceptionally skilled, cleanly eliminating [[spoiler: Rekka's]] heart from a great distance and then serve an arm with a second shot (granted [[spoiler: Rekka]] was frozen in a block of ice at the time). She is also capable of criticizing her fellow cultists and is quite pretty.

* ArrowsOnFire: One of the people in white hoods has an ability to conjure flame bow and arrows. They can ether act as piecing shots or explosives.

* BadAssNormal: Company 8 Captain, Akitaru Oubi: unlike his subordinates and peers, he has no flame-powers but can keep up with them thanks to constant training and the usage of Brigade tools.
** Captain Sōichirō Hague also counts as he simply uses firefighting tools to duel with monsters. The fact he has lived into old age proves that he is no slouch.
* BadassBystander: The Infernal widower mentioned above. When a person ignites, the agonizing pain is beyond all comprehension and forces them to go berserk. Instead of attacking others or destroying things, the man had a strong enough will to retain a level of sanity. Calmly waiting for the Force to put him down, while avoiding damaging anything around him and never once harming his daughter. While being on fire. Akitaru believes that his actions prove he was strong enough to beat his condition.
* BigBad: The Evangelist. The mastermind behind most of the suffering and the leader of Knight of Ashen Flame: the main villainous faction in the world.
* BlackAndGrayMorality: In the grand scheme of things, the fractured nature of the Fire Force makes them a pretty morally compromised and troublesome group. Thankfully, they battle against an outright evil cult and monsters.
* BizarreAndImprobableBallistics: Commander Hinawa of Eighth Brigade. Being a second-generation fire officer, he can manipulate the explosion caused from firing of gunpowder and is shown to weaken a bullet power fired as well as [[http://static.mangainn.me/mangas/4131/145738/009_01_21_2016_13_29_11.jpg changing bullets' trajectory]].
** PinballProjectile: Using the same ability, he can create several ricochets by manipulating [[http://static.mangainn.me/mangas/4131/145738/017_01_21_2016_13_29_11.jpg sparks from bullets' impact with objects]]. The result can be [[http://static.mangainn.me/mangas/4131/145738/018_01_21_2016_13_29_11.jpg terrifying]].
* BodyDouble: [[spoiler: Two cultists perfectly imitate the Hinawa and Akitaru in order to turn Benimaru of Company 7 against them, causing a distraction while they release the Fire Bugs.]]
** Yona of the Cult [[spoiler: is able to change the appearance of anyone. Including himself.]]

* CallingYourAttacks: One of the things Arthur had to be taught by Beni during their training session was to quit doing this (and talking in general) so he can take advantage of the element of surprise.
* CassandraTruth: As a child, Shinra gets blown off by everyone else when [[spoiler:he tries to tell them of the demon's existence in his home. His grinning after his family's death doesn't help matters either]].
* CharacterTics: Shinra has a habit of grinning like a madman when he's nervous or anxious, frightening or unnerving others, and leading to a lot of embarrassing and misunderstood situations. In particular, [[spoiler: this was used against him as a child when he "smiled" at his mother's dead body, earning him the malicious nickname "Demon" because people thought he was smiling because he enjoyed what was happening.]] Though on the beneficial side, it tends to do the same to his opponents in combat. [[spoiler: His brother does it too, though it's unclear if he's also nervous or [[ForTheEvulz excited]].]]

* ChurchMilitant - Company 1 is extremely religious and backed by the Church. There are extremely well organised when it comes to fighting Infernals and many of its high-ranking members are priests.

* CreepyTwins: Two of them, Hikage and Hinata, from Company 7; they praise an old lady's sweets as "her last effort before she dies" and are excited to see Shinra's flame dancing after saying it's going to be stupid-looking. [[spoiler:They are also extremely dangerous fighters.]] People think that they are copying Benimaru's rudeness and bad behaviour but Beni insists ''that'' rude.
* CrystalDragonJesus - The dominate religion is clearly modelled after Catholicism, but they worship the Great Sun God.

* CuteWitch: Maki of Company 8 (not to be confused with Tamaki) has a witch theme: She has two flame {{Familiar}}s called Meru Meru and Pusa Pusa that Vulcan makes [[OwlBeDamned owl-themed]] armor for (well they're owl-like to him, anyway) and makes a special witch's hat for herself.
** CuteBruiser: Flail the cultist and his men gets get their asses handed to them by a little girl and her two "pets". Because Maki is a destructive force.

* DanceBattler: Shinra is able to pull off some breakdancing and kicking moves in conjunction with his powers. Justified in the sense that his powers are focused in his feet. He even flat out calls it breakdancing in chapter 40, along with giving it the nickname; "Flaming Top."

* DemonicPossession: Or something like it. [[spoiler:Shinra's body and mind gets taken over by a violent spirit. It takes a severe beating and HeroicResolve for him to break free.]]

* DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler: Hibana crossed it after her and Iris' nunnery burned down and became twisted and mad for money and power, the only things that matter in the world.]]
* DoesNotLikeShoes: Shinra again, though not necessarily out of preference. Shoes would just be burned off when he uses his powers, so most of the time he's either barefoot or wearing easily removable flip-flops.
* EarlyBirdCameo - Burns appears in Chapter 2, during Shinra's flashback, before appearing in Chapter 5.

* Eldritch Location: The Adolla World is a place where fire burns infinitely and without fuel or emissions. It also changes depending on who is viewing it.
** Shinra [[spoiler: and Shō]] see a blank white void with burning bones scattered around and other other oddities.
** [[spoiler: Burns and '52']] see the dimension as a dark cosmic void featuring twisted architecture and grotesque ''things'' that leave them screaming on the floor.

** EmpireWithADarkSecret - As more is revealed this seems more and more likely. [[spoiler:It appears that the power source for the entire empire is fuelled by HumanSacrifice. Also, the Church is hiding the truth behind it's foundation.]]
* EpicFlail: How Flail the cultist's powers manifest, as a giant flame ball at the end of a (apparently regular) chain.

* EvilIsHammy: Princess Hibana, so very much.
* EyepatchAfterTimeSkip: Burns is shown without an eyepatch during Shinra's past, implying he lost his eye during the past 12 years. [[spoiler: It's eventually revealed he lost his eye much earlier, [[RedHerring Burns took off his eyepatch when the fire inside his eye socket began burning out of control.]]]]
* EyesAlwaysShut: Li Huo Yan (apparently they're literally shut, as Karim tells him to open them); Takeru "Juggernaut" Noto to show how meek he is in spite of his large size.

* EyepatchOfPower: 1st Brigade Commander Leonardo Barnes (or possibly [[MeaningfulName Burns]]). Joker keeps one eye covered with a lacy scarf. The Seventh Brigade leader has an X on one eye, the other is usually covered by his bangs.

* FeatherMotif: The flame sword of [[spoiler: Shinra's brother]] has feathers coming out of it, similar to how Hibana's flames are flower-themed.

* FlashStep: [[spoiler: Sho, Shinra's brother, is ''very'' quick, but not as fast as Joker]].

* FlyingFirepower: Shinra's fire powers enable him to either perform fire-boosted jumps or hover and fly for brief periods.

%%* GenderBender: Since it's unclear what this really means: Shinra has a dream about a beautiful girl with shoulder-length fair hair and long eyelashes who is wreathed in flames, whom he assumes is Sister Iris. The only other person who matches this description is ''Sho'', who actually has flame powers but has never been seen without full armor. Shinra believes he saw the girl's body in the dream but that could just be him "filling in the blanks" because of the dream girl's feminine face.

* {{Hellfire}}: What the Adolla Burst might be.

* IAmNotLeftHanded: Subverted, see below.
* [[IdenticalGrandson Identical Granddaughter]] - Captain of Company 4 has the exact same hair colour, eyebrows and glasses as his granddaughter in Company 6. Shinra is pretty shocked when he notices.
* IdiotHero: Arthur. Aside from his insistence that he's a knight in spite of the lack of evidence that knights exist in this world, he begins a fight with an enhanced Flame Person and thinks something is "off" while getting beaten, causing his opponent to laugh and criticize him for making excuses about losing. [[spoiler: Arthur then suddenly realizes he's fighting with his left hand. This isn't him holding back or getting caught in an illusion, ''he literally didn't realize he was using the wrong hand''. He switches to his right hand and promptly [[CurbStompBattle annihilates his foe with a single strike.]] Later he actually has to remind himself that the "hand he uses chopsticks with" is the correct hand to hold Excalibur]].
* JurisdictionFriction - Each Fire Force Company is in charge of a certain ares and they really don't like the other groups interfering with their work. Meaning, Company 8 often needs an excuse to get involved without risking a fight.

* InnocentFanserviceGirl: Tamaki Kotatsu from the First Brigade has this problem, termed "Lucky Lewd Syndrome": she wears a bikini under a cut-off uniform (necessary, as a result of the way her powers work) and has a habit of accidentally tripping chest/crotch/boobs-first into people and then accusing them of sexual harassment. In what's probably the ultimate example of this, she somehow loses all her clothes by tripping [[spoiler: which proves that she's the real deal in place of a body doubling cultist to Iris]].
* InsufferableGenius: Vulcan, a gifted "chemist"/inventor was courted by all the brigades and the company that effectively rules them and rejected all of them to work on his own. As a result he has to send his assistant farther and farther to get parts because the company forbid anyone from selling parts to him. He's also obsessed with "permanence" due to his family's involvement in creating the Amaterasu power plant that is supposed to run forever and smashes his assistant's first invention to show him how that he has to create strong things that last forever (including [[{{Nakama}} bonds of friendship]]).
** {{Irony}}: Said unbreakable bonds [[spoiler: includes Lucy, a cultist spy who only became friends with him to find Amaterasu's key.]]

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Beni, the Seventh Brigade leader, is rude and lazy but he really does care about his crew and the civilians around him (even if he blows up their buildings every time a flame person appears).

* ALighterShadeOfBlack - Joker is a violent criminal who will endanger people's lives for the sake of his goals. But he opposes the cult and their goals to the point of aiding the Fire Force against them.

* MagicPlasticSurgery / MadArtist: [[spoiler: One of the cultists uses heat to sculpt people's faces, though he occasionally winds up melting and burning them to death instead. Another member chides him for wasting loyal "materials".]]

* ObviouslyEvil: Licht, the chemist forced onto 8th Brigade by the higher-ups, is creepily eccentric [[spoiler: he's also Joker's partner]]. They'd rather have Vulcan who's ''violently'' eccentric.
* PetalPower: Princess Hibana's flames are flower-shaped.

* UnskilledButStrong: "Juggernaut": he's OneHeadTaller and can create multiple fire missiles but his spirit is weak and easily rattled.

* CreepyTwins: Two of them attached to the Seventh Brigade; they praise an elderly sweet vendor's food as "her last effort before she dies" and are excited to see Shinra's flame dancing after saying it's going to be stupid-looking. It appears they're imitating their leader Beni's rude way of talking, though he doesn't believe he's ''that'' rude.

* TheEmpire: Tokyo is not the name of the capital city. It is the name of the empire the cast lives within. Also doubles as a TheTheocracy. It's not all that bad as it allowed human civilisation to reform and allowed refugees passage upon the Great Disaster.

* EquivalentExchange / BalancingDeathsBooks: One particularly conscious flame-person's excuse for why he's a killer: [[spoiler: as a fire-fighter he saved loads of people so it's only fair he balances things out by killing loads of people. This was ''before'' he became a flame-person...]]

* EyepatchAfterTimeSkip: Burns is shown without an eyepatch during Shinra's past, implying he lost his eye during the past 12 years. [[spoiler: It's eventually revealed he lost his eye much earlier, Burns took off his eyepatch when the fire inside his eye socket began burning out of control.]]

* GoodOldWays: The Seventh Brigade and their community in [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sens%C5%8D-ji Asakusa]] are apparently the only "traditional" Japanese in the country (they don't wear western clothes, worship in cathedrals, use nuns in their missions, or regard the emperor as their leader) and are seen as "barbarians" by everyone else.
* GrotesqueCute: The fire brigade has three mascots which were originally cute animals until [[RuleOfThree the third one]] [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers was changed into an old man.]] Shinra thinks it's disturbing while others find it adorable.

* HiddenAgendaVillain: Joker. He's unlikely to be on the side of the fire brigade but he doesn't appear to be on the side of [[spoiler: the cultists, as he tells Shinra they have his brother Sho and later attacks him (Sho) when they meet face to face]] either.

* CassandraTruth: As a child, Shinra gets blown off by everyone else when [[spoiler:he tries to tell them of the demon's existence in his home]].

* CassandraTruth: As a child, Shinra gets blown off when he tells everyone else there was a demon in his home that killed his family.
