* {{Animesque}}: Inverted in the case of the animated segments, as they use the cartoony ThinLineAnimation style, which became more common in most western cartoons from 2010 onward. Averted with the Visual Novel segments themselves though, as they instead use the typical modern Anime artstyle and is also a Japanese work.

* WholePlotReference: The plot borrows a lot from ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy''. The main character was kidnapped by aliens shortly after witnessing the death of their mother and raised to be a thief. The story begins with them stealing a MacGuffin from a temple on an alien world and narrowly evading agents of an evil overlord who needs that MacGuffin to subjugate the galaxy. Said evil overlord sends his daughter, a skilled assassin who secretly hates him, to recover the MacGuffin. The thief is thrown in prison along with the overlord’s daughter and the last survivor of a race the overlord exterminated, where they team up to keep the stone out of the overlord’s hands. The thief’s boss is also after them because he wants the MacGuffin for himself. And so on.

* PigInAPoke: Tera once spent five million yen on something from Galaxy Auction that turned out to be a worthless pebble. The deliveryman held her at gunpoint to make sure she paid up, mocking Earthlings for being so easy to fool.
