{{tropelist}}

* [[Slippy-Slidey Ice World]]: Horn Mountain of Winterhorn Ridge. Thankfully, without any ''actual'' ice to slip or slide on.

* [[Small Name, Big Ego]]: Lord Brigan. He constantly boasts about his power and his loyalty to King Odin. However, he is defeated five times in all throughout the game by just about every main character. Mercedes is the only one not to defeat him, arguably because the two don't even meet. Gwendolyn defeats him ''twice'' though, living {{spoiler|and undead}}.

* [[Snicket Warning Label]]: The sixth book is titled "Armageddon"; [[The End of the World as We Know It|guess what happens]].

* [[Spiritual Successor]]: To ''Princess Crown'', a 1997 [[Atlus]] title for the [[Sega Saturn]] developed by the dev team that went on to become [[Vanillaware]]. During development, ''Odin Sphere'' was even referred to as ''Princess Crown 2''.

** More obviously, {{spoiler|Odin and Griselda}}. The former literally embraces the latter's ghost in death, finding solace in that they will at least be reunited.

* [[To Hell and Back]]: Every playable character visits the Netherworld at some point, but also Odin (who does this regularly), Brom, the Three Wise Men and {{spoiler|King Valentine}}.

* [[Tragic Hero]]: Ingway, who has a tendency to [[Fatal Flaw|not think out his decisions before making them]].

* [[Tragic Monster]]: Belial, as well as {{spoiler|Ingway}}.
