* KnightTemplar: Behemdolg uses girls as {{BreedingSlave}}s and Blessed boys [[PoweredByAForsakenChild to power up their city]]. They like to use their position as the last citadel of humanity to justify their actions.

* MeaningfulName: Agni is the name of the Hindu god of fire. The main character, Agni, spends the bulk of the story perpetually on fire. He even gets a cult started around him later in the story who hail him as a god.
** Agni also sounds like agony. He's constantly in physical and emotional pain.

* AnAesop: Live. Even if you're in pain, even if things seem hopeless, even if you think the world would be better off without you, always choose to keep living.

** In Chapter 47, [[spoiler:when Agni presumbly goes to "Heaven",]] there are several posters hanging out the walls for such movies as ''Film/BackToTheFuture1'', ''Film/EmpireStrikesBack'' or ''[[Film/TheAvengers2012 Bvengers]]''.

* {{Expy}}: During Fire Punch's serialization, Fujimoto wrote a one-shot called "When I Woke Up I Had Become a Girl Diseases," a GenderBender story that reads as an allegory of a trans man going through puberty, asserting himself as a man in spite of what his unchangeable body looks like. [[spoiler: Parallels of this can be seen in Togata, a trans man that wants to assert himself as a man despite his body and is unable to change his body.]]

%%* FromBadToWorse: The endless CycleOfRevenge makes this.

* DysfunctionJunction: Practically every single character goes at least a little bit insane to cope with the constant death and desperation they face on a daily basis.

* AnAesop: Live. Even if you're in pain, even if the world seems hopeless, even if you think the world would be better off without you, always choose to keep living.

* AnAesop: [[ArcWords Live]]. Even if you're in pain, even if the world seems hopeless, even if you think the world would be better off without you, always choose to keep living.

* RealityEnsues: Behemdolg is... [[RapePillageAndBurn shitty]], to say the least. However, it still ''was'' a city that provided some level of security in a borderline uninhabitable world. [[spoiler:Agni's decision to liberate the slaves, while obviously coming from a place of good will, ends up causing a ''lot'' of people to die in the crossfire]].

* NeglectfulPrecursors: [[spoiler:They have filled Earth with uncontrollable nanomachines and migrated to space, leaving behind a DeathWorld. They were also said to have created a dystopia where everyone was identical.]]

* TomatoSurprise: A person alone in a movie theater is repeatedly used as [[MaybeMagicMaybeMundane literal or metaphorical]] representation for their death. But the second-to-last time this is shown, it turns out [[spoiler:Sun!Agni]] is still alive and ''physically'' in a regular movie theater.
