14	* AmbiguouslyBrown: Nearly everyone. It takes place in a distant space-faring society, and most of the humans in the cast are various shades of brown with various hair colors. Denma has medium-brown skin and peach-colored hair. No one ever comments on this, so it seems that race isn't an issue in their society.

In his pursuit of his goal, which is to live freely with his OneTrueLove Nell, he: spends time in prison, loses over 100 pounds, becomes a guard, leaves the church, sells his body as a prostitute, kills a dozen people, escapes prison (twice), walks directly into a war zone, and steals a spaceship.

42	* SpaceOpera: An epic, galaxy-spanning tale of spaceships, aliens and SpacePirates with ray guns.
43	* StalkingIsLove: Downplayed. Edel falls for Nell on first sight, and immediately walks up and kisses her. Then he follows her around and stalks her blog. At first, she is creeped out and tells him to go away, but eventually she sees how far he is willing to go for her and falls for him.
44	* ThirdPersonPerson: Hoon speaks in third person.
45	* VillainProtagonist: Denma, at least initially. He was the most feared criminal in the galaxy, but his enemies at Silverquick are [[BlackAndGrayMorality much worse]].
