Unlike the original sound novel series ''Franchise/WhenTheyCry'' which 07th Expansion is famous for, ''[=TRT=]'' is officially labeled as a visual novel. It is an experimental work in many aspects, especially as far as its story structure, sound track and visual elements are concerned. It does seem to take place in the ''When They Cry'' verse, however, with Witches and Fragments as well as references to characters like [[VisualNovel/UminekoWhenTheyCry the Witch Beatrice.]]

* PlayingCardMotifs: Clubs A club (♣) and diamonds diamond (♦) are depicted on Usagi's sleeves, while Alice's dress has hearts a heart (♥) and spades spade (♠) on it.it. Additionally, the trope's page mentions that a [[SymbolMotifClothing Queen of Hearts]] is likely to appear in an ''AliceAllusion'' (yes, look right at Alice's [[RequisiteRoyalRegalia crown]] and heart-symbol on the dress). Then, it also mentions that the spade is associated with death. While she is highly lethal in a fight because she can just enter and leave worlds at her discretion, Alice [[spoiler: comes disturbingly close to even killing herself]].

Going against Alice's penchant for gutting worlds by experiencing the most interesting parts first and discarding the rest, Usagi sets a rule for her:
She is to visit the three worlds one at a time, letting them unfold, and experience them gradually, along with their savory details.

''[=TRianThology=] ~ Sanmenkyō no Kuni no Alice ~'' (meaning ''"[=TRianThology=] ~ Alice in the Land of the Three-Sided Mirror ~"'') is a [[KineticNovel kinetic]] [[VisualNovel visual novel]] that follows the journey of a witch named Alice.
The [[PunBasedTitle title]] capitalizes the initial letters of its three scenario writers: Romeo '''T'''anaka, '''R'''yuukishi07, Yuuto '''T'''onokawa. It is commonly abbreviated as ''[[MeaningfulName TRT]]''.

One day, Alice, known as the [[WitchSpecies Witch of Gutting]], is overcome with boredom and threatens her friend Usagi with a [[BioAugmentation bodily]] [[MalevolentMutilation remodeling]] for her own amusement. Seeking to distract Alice, Usagi promptly presents three [[MagicalLand world fragments]] - crystal shards containing worlds and stories which Alice has not experienced before.

Going against Alice's penchant for gutting worlds by experiencing the most interesting parts first and discarding the rest, Usagi sets a rule for her:
She is to visit the three worlds one at a time, letting them unfold, and experience them gradually, along with their savory details.

Thus, Alice sets off on her journey to the three worlds:
* In ''Country Girl'', Alice finds herself spectating the story of middle/high-school students Mikihiko, Miya, Iyo and Keiko, a group of friends drifting apart, which Keiko makes a desperate attempt to stop, not even shying away from committing various crimes.
* ''Academy Love Adventure [[LampshadeHanging (It's Too Absurd For This Name)]]'': A high-school which students enrol in, in the hope of experiencing a sparkling youth. One of the students - Ibito - is handsome, cool, everything. Yet, he is not interested in the school rumor which brings boys and girls together, which is what most students are interested in. That, and he unwillingly [[HilarityEnsues attracts girls like a magnet]].
* ''Vespio 2438'': It is the year 2438 and man has advanced into space. Currently, humans are waging war against an intelligent and belligerent [[KillerSpaceMonkey Humanoid Space Monkey Species]] - the [[AsLongAsItSoundsForeign Garlotte]]. Deployed on the eponymous planet, Falco, Violeta, Goro and Brad of the Fox Squad are trying to stay alive until the ceasefire agreement comes into force.

Unlike the original sound novel series ''Franchise/WhenTheyCry'' which 07th Expansion is famous for, ''[=TRT=]'' is officially labeled as a visual novel.
It is an experimental work in many aspects, especially as far as its story structure, sound track and visual elements are concerned.

In 2016, prior to ''[=TRT's=]'' release, a manga titled ''Country Girl'' was [[http://seiga.nicovideo.jp/comic/19599 released on the Seiga platform]] of ''Website/NicoNicoDouga'', and serves as an introduction to its eponymous world (which is one of the three worlds Usagi presents to Alice) in the visual novel. It was illustrated by Tatsuhiko and distributed by ''Creator/SquareEnix''.
A scanlation of its first five chapters [[{{Scanlation}} exists]] and was released by [[StealthPun Crashed Tea Party]].
Official translations of both the visual novel and the manga have yet to be announced.

'''Warning:''' Since ''[=TRianThology=]'' has major [[SpoileredRotten twisted plot points]] topped copiously with MindScrew, it is advised to read the visual novel prior to perusing the trope list.

!!Now, Ms. Alice. The trope world awaits. Bon voyage~:

* AerithAndBob: The diplomats Keene and... Wolch.
* AliceAllusion: Where have we seen a [[AliceAllusion girl named Alice, a rabbit and playing cards? A magic world where the main girl finds herself in...]] [[PopculturalOsmosis Hm.]]
* AmateurSleuth: Iyo and Keiko, who decide to help people in their hometown with missing things. In the early days of their friendship, they proposed to establish a detective club [[FourTemperamentEnsemble with Mikihiko and Miya]].
* AmbiguousGender: Usagi and Ichou, who are associated with an animal and a plant respectively.
* ArcNumber: Well, take a wild guess. [[DontExplainTheJoke (It's three because there are three authors, "[=TRianThology=]" includes a) the stem "tri" which is derived from the Ancient Greek and Latin words for "three" and b) "Three-Sided Mirror", there are three world shards Usagi presents to Alice, and she also visits them three times.)]]
** Also, four. ''[=TRT=]'' focuses on four worlds (three plus Alice's world, named ???), and in each of the other three worlds, there are four main characters.
* AuthorAppeal: Have you read ''VisualNovel/UminekoWhenTheyCry''? We are talking about [=Ryukishi07=]'s favorite [[ShowGirlSkirt Show Girl Skirts]] and [[LeotardofPower Leotards of Power]] on Eiserne Jungfrau members and the Chiester Sisters. They found their way to ''[=TRT=]'' as well: Usagi and Ichou (who shares both the leotard and the [[ZettaiRyouiki boots]] with either Chiester). Furthermore, Alice dons what resembles a Bernkastel mini-dress.
* {{Bokukko}}: Yukari. May be caused by her [[spoiler:gaming sessions in an online-game, where she chooses to hide her gender and use "boku," a rather unusual pronoun for girls]]. Also, Usagi... [[AmbiguousGender might]] be this.
* CastOfSnowflakes: You would be able to recognize most, if not all the characters just by looking at their faces. This is amplified by the fact that this work uses multiple and mixed art styles.
* CatchPhrase: Alice's: ''Bonboya~'' which is a variation of the French "bon voyage."
* ClassyCravat: Alice has one, and it's adorned with a gem. This fits her status as a witch and her rather fussy personality.
* CrashIntoHello: [[ParodiedTrope Parodied]]. On a certain day, when Ibito makes jumps and sprints to school at an insane velocity, he can choose how to handle the turn around a block. Depending on his choice, he can [[HappilyEverAfter bump]] into [[{{Dojikko}} Hinako]], making for a... very abrupt ending. Or you can pick the more careful option so you can [[FollowThePlottedLine go on with the story]].
* ColorCodedCharacters: Falco - Blue. Goro - Green. [[MeaningfulName Violeta]] - Violet. Brad - [[TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers Golden Blond]].
* ConspicuousCG: Numerous scenes in the ''Vespio 2438'' world feature this - which [[spoiler:[[VideoGames makes a lot of sense]]]].
* CoolCrown: Alice, along with an expensive-looking gem.
* ElegantGothicLolita: Yes. Ask the witch in the title image with the frills and sleeves and such.
* EmpathicEnvironment: When Iyo decides to [[spoiler:continue her search for a missing cat, but is unable to track it down]], it starts raining. This is a heavy kick in the heart, considering that what Iyo also sees during her search are [[spoiler:[[TrailOfBlood blood stains]]]].
* EverythingsBetterWithMonkeys: ''Vespio'' has them. A lot of them. [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] in that the Garlotte race are described as threatening, huge, destructive and belligerent.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Keiko - Phlegmatic, Mikihiko - Sanguine, Miya - Choleric, Iyo - Melancholic.
* GiantPoofySleeves: 07th Expansion Witch Shoulders. In ''[=TRT=]'', Alice and Usagi rock these.
* GirlishPigtails: Alice, which suits her, given her young appearance and immaturity. Additionally, [[spoiler:this might be a hint toward her true identity]].
* HandHidingSleeves: These were even discussed in [[VisualNovel/{{HigurashiWhenTheyCry}} Higurashi]] and keep being relevant throughout many 07th Expansion works, including ''[=TRianThology=]'': Usagi sports a pair. Then, Alice takes them to the next level.
* MegaTwintails: Alice. She is the one who has these. [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment Her big twintails are indeed quite large.]]
* OnlyOneName: Certainly not only one character is this. Usagi, Brad, Falco, Violeta, Goro, Ichou, Wolch, Ishizuka, ...
* OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent: Subverted. Ibito claims to be one, but is described as having "all of his stats maxed out." Not to mention that when he is late, he chooses to [[SuperStrength jump to school]].
* ParodiedTrope: When Ibito goes on a walk with Hidaka, he meets a girl. Depending on how he interacts with her, an abrupt ending will tell you that [[HappilyEverAfter they lived happily ever after.]] If [[ChickMagnet Ibito]] gets away from her, it's only for a moment. [[UnwantedHarem Whether he wants it or not]] there are [[ChildhoodFriend plenty]] of [[StalkerWithACrush other]] [[{{Ojou}} girls]] [[CuteClumsyGirl who]] want him.
* PlayingCardMotifs: Clubs (♣) and diamonds (♦) are depicted on Usagi's sleeves, while Alice's dress has hearts (♥) and spades (♠) on it.
* WaistcoatOfStyle: [[http://trt.07th-expansion.net/image/Ibito.jpg Ibito]] and [[http://trt.07th-expansion.net/image/Hidaka.jpg Hidaka]] wear these. Even though those are part of the male school uniform, Ibito and Hidaka being [[AllThereInTheManual officially described]] as a stats-maxed-out-bishōjō-protagonist and [[{{Bishonen}} Ikemen]] respectively supports this trope. And anyway, their waistcoats are supposed to be stylish due to the romantic premise of the school.
* WhiteBunny: Usagi is supposed to be this, especially with a name like that: "Usagi" means "rabbit" or "hare" in Japanese, and [[DontExplainTheJoke Usagi shares traits with (white) rabbits like the ears and red eye color and the name]].
