 Distortionverse is an Italian ongoing series of short novels with Manga themes. The series is made up of five books (until now), whose titles show use of Gratuitous English (being enlisted as Distortionverse: Chapter [number], even if the books are in written only in Italian).The novels are set in the same near future, spanning from 2038 to 2064. The timeline split up from the Real Life following a First Contact with aliens in the early 2000s, and - as a result - taking place in an Alternate History in which all electric energy is produced by distorting the spacetime.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The protagonists of the novels vary within each volume: only Chapter 1 - La Notte che Cammina and Chapter 4 - Il Canto del Buio share the same characters, though several cross-references can be found throughout the series. Later, Chapter 5 - Rumori di Fondo and Chapter 6 - Uptune! form a sidestory on its own.Each book contains a Word of God section in which characters and situation are explained in details.This pages list the tropes for the whole series, grouping all six books published so far: Chapter 1 - La Notte che Cammina Chapter 2 - Rosenmaester Chapter 3 - Luci dalla Cenere, which is divided into two shorter novels (Sabbie and Sharoine) Chapter 4 - Il Canto del Buio Chapter 5 - Rumori di Fondo Chapter 6 - Uptune!

comment
 Bittersweet Ending: almost every book of the series is a good example for this. La Notte che Cammina: Veckert get her face restored, Michelle is not convicted for Jack the Ripper's homicides but Baal manages to escape, leaving in fact the case unsolved; Rosenmaester: the Big Bad succeeds into wiping out the entire population of his city (approx. three million people) before being killed. This can be considered an utmost Downer Ending when we even discover that not only he survived, but actually became the main antagonist of the previous chapter!Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })

 Uptune!: everything fine for the protagonists, but Orviandre is revealed to be the Big Bad, Raphaël and Gabriel die, and Michelle is revelaed not to be the same Michelle as in Rumori di Fondo. Ah, to make matters worse Baal looks even more active than before.

 Aerith and Bob: Werner, Michelle, François, Bertrand, Egon are all pretty common name... well, especially if compared with Veckert, Vortag, Silman, Emmelyn, Sapphire (and so on).

 Badass Long Coat: Veckert Rainer wears one in most occasions. Ezequiel from Sabbie qualifies as well.

 Action Girl: Michelle Dumas in Chapter 5 - Rumori di Fondo. The same can't be said for the same character in Chapter 1 - La Notte che Cammina.

 Sabbie: sure, the truth is unveiled, Kreen can design his new robots, and everyone is happy... but Lyle reveals Wentzel Herzog that he is going to die due to heart attack in the following two years. To make matters worse, Wentzel has a two-years-old daughter to care about and her mother just left her to him;
