* ArtEvolution: As Transcendent's gone on, it's evolved from rough sketches to solid lines and character designs.
* AuthorAppeal: Gigi's introduction, considering the author has shown a preference for femslash stories in the past. Considering Gigi's popularity, however, this seems to be something she shares with her audience.



* WishFulfillment: An example of TropesAreTools. Olive is respected as a girl and treated as such by every character we're supposed to like or respect, she has a tight group of friends who support and help her through her transition, and her brother and parents are incredibly supportive and do their best to accommodate her to the best of their ability.

* EscapistCharacter: Olive. She's a trans girl with an extremely loving and supportive family, she has several close friends, her old childhood best friend is in love with her, the boys at her school all think she's beautiful, and the only major problems she has to deal with are small-scale issues related to being transgender. Considering how many authors will use TransTribulations as an excuse for [[DarknessInducedAudienceApathy cheap unnecessary trauma onto their trans characters]], this is definitely a case of TropesAreTools.

Some Anvils Need To Be Dropped got cut, going to see if this fits better under An Aesop.


* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped: The comic is none-too-subtle about calling out any and all transphobia that Olive has to face, and at several points characters become violent at anyone who disrespects Olive's gender. Considering that trans people still face virulent bigotry and discrimination today, having transphobes punished violently for their actions and words is extremely refreshing.

* SugarWiki/WAFF: It's a slice-of-life comic about a trans girl having fun with her friends, adjusting to her transition, and getting plenty of love from the people around her. Pure wish fulfillment at its finest.
