History Music / Mothy

* AnimatedActors: Mothy seems to treat the Vocaloids this way, and each is credited for the role of the character in the [=PVs=] they're in. For example, Len playing both Allen and Lemy in Servant of Evil and The 5th Pierrot respectively.

* LyricalDissonance: Mothy '''''REALLY''''' loves this trope, to the point that when he makes a "cute" song fans can't believe it, to the point that some even ''pick the lyrics apart, piece by piece'' to find some sign of a tragedy in the song. The shadow parade really takes the cake though.

** Then there's ''Watching Us'', which seems to take place in the industrial revolution (or an equivalent). That story features rampant pollution and a poor population that works long hours in mills and factories.

** Then there's Watching Us" which seems to take place in the industrial revolution (or an equivalent,) which features rampant pollution and the poor who work long hours in mills and factories.

* ''LightNovel/TortureTowerDoesntSleep''
* ''LightNovel/UnlockCity''

* GreenAesop: ''Watching Us''. Interestingly, it doesn't so much go for showing the effect the smog spewing factory has on the environment, as it does the effects on the people in the town; Len gets [[IllGirl severely]] [[LittlestCancerPatient ill]] from all the smog and Rin has to work hard in a sweatshop to pay off the hospital bills. [[spoiler: Luka, a personified star, sees and hears all this and notices how everyone wishes on stars, including the twins. She then expresses guilt that she is unable to give them their wishes and [[DramaticIrony desperately wishes herself]] [[TearJerker that she could help them]]]].

* RealityEnsues: A weird example in "Watching Us", since it still has a supernatural element; [[spoiler:wishing on stars doesn't really work. You can wish for miracles all you want, you'll never get them]].

* ''Franchise/EvilliousChronicles''

* The Torture Tower Doesn't Sleeps series

* Franchise/EvilliousChronicles

* CannotSpitItOut: A variation; in ''To the Reticent You'' Rin displays irritation at her boyfriend being unable to tell her that he loves her. [[spoiler: She's understandably overjoyed when he [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming finally does at the end]]]].

Mirrors that reflect the truth

* AbusiveParents: The father in ''Flame of Yellow Phosphorus'' is heavily implied to be this.

* CrapsackWorld: In the Torture Tower Doesn't Sleep series. You can probably guess from the name why it qualifies.
** Then there's Watching Us" (a polluted city where people can fall terminally ill just by ''breathing'').

* ClockPunk: A common theme of the Evillious Chronicles.

* Messengers of teh Infinity Mirrors

* The Torture Tower Never Sleeps series

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_x_ijQaxpQ Screws, Gears, and Pride]] (official English title: "Another Clockwork")
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3EFbyiSTG4 Ten Minute Love]]
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYcDPq-jBhs To The Reticent You]] (no PV, official English title: "His Word")
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0ceA2XZqDA Flame of Yellow Phosphorus]]

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHHTqHlWkvg The Sleepless Torture Tower]]

* ArtificialHuman: The two Rins from ''Screws Clockwork and Pride''. They are implied to be life-size, living toys.

* ClockPunk: A common theme of the Evillious Chronicles, as well as some of mothy's minor songs like "Screws, Clockwork, and Pride".
* CrapsackWorld: In the Sleepless Torture Tower series. You can probably guess from the name why it qualifies.
** Then there's "Screws, Gears and Pride" (the two protagonists are viewed as inferior and thrown into a landfill) and "Watching Us" (a polluted city where people can fall terminally ill just by ''breathing'').

* MoeAnthropomorphism: In ''Sleepless Torture Tower'', [[spoiler: the three sisters.]]

* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: The lovely names of the sisters from ''Sleepless Torture Tower'', Gibbet, Rack and Maiden (as in ''Iron Maiden'').
* ObliviouslyEvil: The three sisters from ''Sleepless Torture Tower'' don't seem to think it's wrong to capture people and torture them until they either die or begin to enjoy it. (Granted, they seem to have it really in for people who are actually DESERVING of torture, but still.)

* ReligionOfEvil: The "Ugly God" the Lord of Torture and his daughters worship in ''Sleepless Torture Tower''.

* SoloDuet: "Screws, Gears, and Pride", which features two Rins as the main singers (although Len does show up for one verse).

* TakeUpMySword: The three sisters of ''The Sleepless Torture Tower'' are mentioned to have picked up their duties in honour of their father.
* TitleDrop: More often than not, the last line of the chorus of ''The Sleeples Torture Tower'' is "goumontou wa nemuranai", which is the Japanese title of the song.

* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: The two Rins in ''Screws Clockwork and Pride''. They are sentient toys which were viewed as defective because they couldn't live up to the standards of their creators and ended up in a garbage processing plant because of it.

** The singer of "Watching Us" is revealed at the end to be [[spoiler:a star. Not a star as in a movie star. She is an ''actual'' star in the sky]].

* AerithAndBob / AsLongAsItSoundsForeign: mothy really tries to put in a "Western" feel (including the style choice of his songs), but the names...sometimes just sound plain bizarre even from a native English speaker's standpoint. Elluka? Gallerian? Yukina?
** That's not even getting into Milky, [[BilingualBonus Pollo]], and ''Neruneru.''
