Line 133:
* [[Left Hanging]]
* [[Leitmotif]]: Inverted as whilst the characters each have themes they usually change for each game—that is if the characters appear in more than one game.
* [[Let's Play]]: Spirit Armor's LP of ''Sakura Wars I'' has been ongoing for ''four years''{{when}} and is nearing completion. The man has pledged to do ''I-V'', so at this rate he very well might have a ''Sakura Wars VI'' or even ''VII'' to deal with by the time he finishes ''V'' ([[Marth Debuted in Smash Bros|Although that last one might be unnecessary]]). The LP can be found [http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2564759 here]. He literally went through and ''translated'' the ''entire game'' for your enjoyment, so you'd better be appreciative.
** [[The Abridged Series]]: ''Inverted''—in addition to the literal translation of actual game dialogue, Spirit Armor includes additional dialogue in most scenes that [[Abridged Series Tropes|carries on in the finest traditions of Abridged Series]].
* [[Magical Girl]]
Line 141:
* [[Mentors]]
* [[Multinational Team]]
* [[The Musical]]: This starts to get confusing as it becomes a case of "A Show Within A Show Within A Show" at times. Aside from the in-game musicals performed by the various teams there have actually been several musicals performed in [[Takarazuka]] style (although it should be noted that these musicals do feature the majority of the male seiyuu playing their respective characters too). What makes it even more special is that, unlike a lot of musicals based on anime/games, all the seiyuu respectively play their characters leading to some very funny scenes such as the seiyuu who plays Ohgami being extremely short and Iris' seiyuu makes a joke on it since she is taller than him. (And [[Boisterous Bruiser]] Kanna's seiyuu is ''tiny''.) Usually a musical takes the form of two parts. The first part is a story that focuses on the characters themselves and the second part actually has the characters perform a play/musical such as ''Blue Bird''. The latter got significantly longer as the musicals progressed. The Hanagumi team naturally had the most musicals. The Paris and New York troupes did not get that many. In fact the Paris troupe only had one mini-musical made.
** Also noteworthy is the special stage show (and [[OVA]]) to say good bye to Sumire and her voice actress [[Michie Tomizawa]], when Tomizawa decided to leave the franchise.
*** Technically speaking though that didn't happen so much musical-wise as she continued (and still does) to make guest appearances and even attends the live events. Seiyuu-wise it's actually Orihime's seiyuu who doesn't attend them since she now lives in the USA.
Line 152:
* [[Out of the Inferno]]: Ohgami did this once after his kohbu was totaled in ''Sakura Taisen 4''. An awesome moment but not a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]].
* [[OVA]]
 
== P-T ==
* [[Peacock Girl]]: At least one set of the stage outfits.
