Darker and Edgier: Sword Oratoria compared to the main series. While it still has its fair share of humor, it's a great deal more serious with higher stakes for the characters.

Adaptation Distillation: The manga adaptation largely skips over the Rakia Invasion arc from the original light novels, only mentioning it in a flashback.

Names to Run Away from Really Fast
 Sword Oratoria / int_60fa92ac
comment
A character named Fels plays with this somewhat: he asks Aiz to complete a quest, seemingly behind the Guild's back. Aiz immediately recognizes that this is the same questgiver who nearly got Lulune killed, but does not retaliate as Aiz's intuition tells her that Fels can be trusted. This "sidequest" ends up becoming the "main" quest for several episodes of Sword Oratoria and at least one volume of the light novels.

Inspirational Insult: When the Loki Familia are in danger of losing to a Spirit/Monster hybrid, Fynn manages to get them to rise back up again by saying they can't compare to Bell. Of course, the familia who are high-levelled take issue with being called inferior to the then level one Bell.

Mass "Oh, Crap!"
 Sword Oratoria / int_97fa0a10
comment
Mass "Oh, Crap!": The elites of the Loki Familia knew they were in trouble when they came across a Demi-Spirit on the 59th Floor. Their despair was heightened when it began to chant, but their fears weren't fully realized until after it had nearly decimated them with its first usage of super long chant magic, only to immediately begin the incantation of a second spell.

Draw Aggro: This is known as a "pass parade" and is a rather common thing in the Dungeon. In particular, a rather massive one known as the Nightmare of the Twenty-Seventh Floor is a huge cornerstone of this story's plot, although it happened a long time ago.

Mood Whiplash: In their darkest hour while trapped in Knossos, Aki gets Raul to give a pep talk to their group. It is so hilariously bad that the mood instantly changes from crushing despair to some semblance of hope.

Due to the Dead: In the manga adaptation, Aiz Wallenstein throws herself into battle against a huge army of monsters who've killed at least two other adventurers, whose eyes are open even in death. A few panels later, the corpses' eyes have been closed, making them seem much more at peace.

Love at First Punch
 Sword Oratoria / int_a8b7f968
comment
Love at First Punch: It is a racial tendency of the Amazons that they fall in love with any strong man that beats them in battle. It does not happen all the time, but it happens more than enough times. Tione fell in love with Finn due to him beating her in combat when recruiting her to Loki Familia. The Amazons of Kali Familia largely fall for the men of Loki's Familia after their defeat. Lena of the fallen Ishtar Familia falls in love with Bête after he got her with an actual punch.

Shout-Out

comment
Shout-Out: In the beginning of this story, Fynn mentioned while the Loki Familia intended to perform an expedition towards 59th Floor, they would also need to perform a quest requested by Dian Cecht's familia to obtain water from Cadmus' Spring on 51st Floor on the way. A character named Fels plays with this somewhat: he asks Aiz to complete a quest, seemingly behind the Guild's back. Aiz immediately recognizes that this is the same questgiver who nearly got Lulune killed, but does not retaliate as Aiz's intuition tells her that Fels can be trusted.

Will Talk for a Price: Subverted. When Lefiya and Bete ask Bors for information on what Aiz is currently doing, Bors tries getting some money out of them for it. However, Bete has no patience for Bors attempts to milk them and threatens him, which prompts Bors to freely give what he knows out of fear.

Ship Tease
 Sword Oratoria / int_dcb9c541
comment
Ship Tease: The tease between Bell & Aiz is a lot more potent in the novels and manga adaptation, since the scenes once show from Bell's perspective is redone from Aiz's, and her thoughts make clear she has some sort of affection for Bell even if she herself doesn't understand her feelings.

comment
Talking Is a Free Action: Averted like in the main series. The incantations used by Lefiya and Riveria are lengthy, elaborate and must be recited perfectly with absolute concentration by the caster. Monsters interrupted or distracted Lefiya in the first episode of the anime leading to the collapse of her magic circle.
