* ExactWords: EarnYourHappyEnding: Throughout the story, Christian gets beaten, tortured, tempted, and scared half to death rather regularly, not to mention his grief that he couldn't coax his wife and sons to leave with him.

* HypocriticalHumor: When Christian and Pliable refuse to return with him, Obstinate calls them stubborn. He later gives a HypocrisyNod by saying that at least he's stubborn in a beneficial way.
* ISeeThemToo: Evangelist is the first person who can actually see Christian's burden; everybody else sees nothing and thinks he's going mad.
* MeaningfulName: Just like the original, the characters' names are pointed statements about their characters. However, certain characters get their names expanded, making them even more meaningful.
** Obstinate gives his surname as "Heady", which suggests "hardheaded", a common synonym for "obstinate".
** Christian's surname is "Pilgrim", which is a common term used for Christians and which makes it even more evident that he's the main character; the story is literally about his progress.

''The Pilgrim's Progress'' is a 2019 animated film released by Revelation Media, based on the book by John Bunyan.

Christian finds his life disrupted when he receives the job of destroying all materials after another local, Faithful Pathfinder, goes missing and takes a book from the man's effects. Gradually becoming too burdened to stand it, he sets out to find the Celestial City, despite the trouble stalking him every step.
!! This film provides examples of the following tropes:
* AndTheAdventureContinues: The movie ends with Christiana finding a letter from her husband, convincing her he's alive and presumably leading to her own journey.
* BrightIsNotGood:
** Mr. Worldly Wiseman wears brightly colored fancy clothes but he nearly gets Christian killed with his advice.
** Vanity Fair runs a perpetual carnival that is very bright and colorful, but the people immediately resort to violence when rebuffed, ultimately killing Faithful.
* DrivenToSuicide: The giant Despair torments Christian and Hopeful and leaves them all manner of things like rope and weapons to kill themselves with, in hopes of invoking this.
* GenderFlip: In the original novel, the Interpreter is male, but here he is reimagined as a female.
* GoryDiscretionShot: The denizens of Vanity Fair implicitly burn Faithful at the stake, but the viewer (and Christian) see only a column of fire through the prison window.
* NothingIsScarier: After getting the report that Faithful's tracks lead to the outer realms, the Supervisor tells his lackey to spread a lie that something horrible happened to the missing man. He explicitly recommends bring as vague as possible to allow their imaginations to run riot.
* RunningGag: For much of Help's scene, he keeps throwing water over Christian to clean the Swamp of Despondency off him.
