comment
Hanlon's Razor: Talshko has a bad habit of ignoring it. She assumes Atshi faked her magic score on her application, despite Atshi’s insistence that she didn’t. It isn’t until Litasha produces the application form, and sees the score is 14.9, and was rounded up to 15 (the minimum entry requirement) by mistake, that she lets Atshi go.

comment
The Millstone: Despite Atshi being the first to fight back against Zeya during the invasion, she is still the same Un-Sorcerer in danger of flunking out of school she was earlier that day, so when her attack backfires, it weakens the locked door enough for Zeya to escape to her targeted room in spite of bringing a knife to an arrintay fight. The MacGuffin is this close to falling into Alemi hands, so Atshi is less than useless.

A Lighter Shade of Black
 Anecdote of Error (Webcomic) / int_19fc58a2
comment
A Lighter Shade of Black: On the one hand, Alemi is led by a bunch of psychopaths who kill their prisoners in some of the most horrific ways possible, who invade boarding schools while children are present in order to gain the weapons inside, and whose soldiers brag about all the cities they will sack once the tide of the war turns in their favor, and claim that someone being torn limb from limb is an appropriate response to being held and questioned. On the other hand, Batea is a place where children are sorted into unequal castes once they reach a certain age, and can be drafted into wars, and housekeepers have very few rights, and the faculty of a boarding school decide to summarily execute an enemy soldier without thinking twice, and the teacher who explains this thinks that it will make the children she is telling it to feel better, and is hinted to have alienated the entire rest of the world such that they are willing to ally with Alemi in spite of all its crimes against humanity. A lot of readers want both sides to lose, but if forced to pick, would want Batea to be victorious, not just because the protagonists are from there, but because Batea is merely an oppressive tyranny, whereas Alemi is a fanatical horde that will destroy for the sake of destruction. There are a small handful of Alemi citizens who aren’t this bad, but not enough to classify the conflict as A Lighter Shade of Gray instead.

Conditioned to Accept Horror: Atshi suffers from a recurring nightmare of a fiery demon dismembering a girl who looks just like her, and even has these visions while awake, but this has gone on for so long that they no longer affect her anymore.

Wrong Context Magic
 Anecdote of Error (Webcomic) / int_1b9df446
comment
Wrong Context Magic: Old Alemi magic is not based on tshetsha, which most people have no idea about, so the builders of the school’s dungeon didn’t take that into account, and so Luntsha can free Zeya effortlessly, by summoning the key.

You Know I'm Black, Right?
 Anecdote of Error (Webcomic) / int_1f9fac06
comment
You Know I'm Black, Right?: While in detention for breaking the vase in the museum and trying to stop an Alemi soldier by themselves, Shimei flips out and says this is what happens when housekeepers are allowed to play with magic. (Never mind that it was at least partly her fault as well.) When Luntsha, who is a housekeeper, hears her say this, she replies, “I’m sorry, WHAT?!” Then Shimei goes on a classist tirade. Ironically, Shimei is the setting’s equivalent of black.

Alpha Bitch
 Anecdote of Error (Webcomic) / int_22a27b19
comment
Alpha Bitch: For the first part of the comic, Shimei seems to have devoted her life to giving Atshi as much grief as possible. All her lines consist of talking down to her in the most passive-aggressive way imaginable, and is always backed up by Nishkose and Kezaua. After her Hidden Depths are revealed, she actually gets worse, as it turns out her mocking of Atshi for being a housekeeper is due to bigotry, not opportunism. But despite this, she can’t stand to let other people get physically hurt if she has a chance to prevent it. Academic Alpha Bitch: Shimei shows off her knowledge every chance she gets, in order to stick it to Atshi whose grades are terrible even on non-magical subjects. Beta Bitch: Nishkose joins in on Shimei’s taunts, and is even worse once we see them alone and learn how abrasive she is to her own friends. She doesn’t even have Shimei’s few redeeming traits.

comment
Litasha is a Misplaced Kindergarten Teacher, and seems pretty harmless, but her idea of reassuring her students that everything is all right after an attack is to tell them that the school faculty are going to extrajudicially execute the soldier responsible, all while maintaining her usual demeanor. Luntsha is appropriately horrified.

The Guards Must Be Crazy: Doubly Subverted. The soldier guarding the school grounds doesn’t fall for Shimei’s claim that she and Atshi are just students visiting the town, on account of it being the middle of the school day. But he lets them go when Atshi makes up a lie on the spot that they are getting supplies for their teacher, despite the unlikelihood of this and despite Shimei giving Atshi a worried look.

The Gadfly: Nishkose. When Shimei finds out she can manifest pins, she suggests that Shimei might have some Alemi ancestry, knowing that this will piss her off because their country is at war with Alemi. Then when Shimei retorts that she is purely Gahadelian, Nishkose asks if she’s inbred, to Shimei’s annoyance. Then she accuses Shimei of having a crush on Luntsha, since Shimei was going to ask her for advice.

You Go, Girl!: Luntsha is a housekeeper, but is headstrong and outspoken instead of submissive to other people. She even sneaks out at night to bust Zeya out of prison before she can be summarily executed. It’s implied that she is one of the first housekeepers to attend magic school, and this is still very rare by the time Atshi, who is also a housekeeper, enrolls.

Magic A Is Magic A: The school exclusively teaches magic derived from dust called tshetsha, and the classes consist of the students learning how to mix it to produce the desired effect. Then subverted when the heroes gain the inherent ability to manifest household objects just by willing it, an old discipline taught in Alemi which has since been forgotten.

So Much for Stealth: Atshi and Shimei follow Luntsha, Yensha, and Zeya into the Alebata Forest, in an attempt to convince Luntsha to come back with them before the Dalgysume find them. Eventually, they make it just behind them, and try at first not to be noticed. Then Yensha hears their footsteps, so Atshi just says "hi" when they turn around, not even bothering to hide in the underbrush.

Establishing Character Moment: Aside from a few non-speaking cameos, Shimei first appears on page 14, bullying Atshi after her kipzlada blew up, and treating her like a small child. She is the first person to mention housekeepers, in a tone of total contempt. Nishkose looks on while smirking, establishing her as Shimei’s follower.

Humiliation Conga: Pages 21 through 23. Atshi fails the arrintay test, then explodes her kipzlada again even after correcting her prior mistakes, and Shimei throws the teacher’s words back at her in a demeaning manner. Then Atshi answers a history question wrong, Shimei gives the right answer, and Nishkose loudly laughs at Atshi’s stupidity. Then she causes more explosions that knock her to the floor, and Shimei helps her up only to push her away and call her hopeless to her face. All these events are finished in about one panel each, giving the impression that they pass by in rapid succession.

Only Fulik is of any importance. This is particularly improbable considering that Word of God has said that the majority of girls become housekeepers and don’t go to school.

Run straight to the scene of trouble to try to stop it herself! Of course, she is way out of her depth, and if it hadn’t been for Luntsha and Shimei getting dragged along, who knows what could have happened to her?

But Atshi interprets it to mean, “Run headlong into danger to try to save everybody yourself.” This leads directly to Luntsha getting expelled, and it’s a miracle that no one gets seriously injured.

Wouldn't Hurt a Child: Zeya tells Shimei that despite them being on opposite sides of a war, and them brandishing potentially lethal weapons at her, that she has no intention of hurting a bunch of children. Considering that she was ready to throw a knife at Atshi a few pages earlier, it’s unclear how sincere she is, but it convinces Luntsha that Zeya isn’t a bad person, and springs her from jail.

Mood Whiplash: If a given page is mostly comic relief, there’s a better than even chance that the one immediately following will be horrifying: For instance, on page 9 Atshi is amazed that bunk beds exist and says she wants the top bunk so as to be like a bird, and page 10 opens up with Atshi’s recurring horrific hallucination. Mitigated by the fact that she has no reaction. Page 16 is a beautiful shot of the school grounds. Then on the next two pages Atshi and Luntsha discuss their regrets, making a somber turn. Then the page after that, Atshi hallucinates the fire-demon again, staring at her menacingly. Unlike the first time, Atshi freezes in terror, exclaiming “My… mistake…” and sporting a Thousand-Yard Stare. The Rant indicates that she is having a panic attack.

Fatal Flaw: Atshi absolutely cannot handle failing, or even being perceived as a failure. This causes her to ignore warnings that the school is under attack, and to try to take out the invaders herself, only to fail miserably. She also absolutely will not allow anyone else to risk their life on her behalf, even if they are much better equipped to deal with the problem than she is, which culminates in her sneaking out to Luntsha’s espionage mission in the middle of a warzone.

Inept Mage: Whenever Atshi tries to use tshetsha, even for the simplest applications, it blows up in her face. Literally. It turns out that her magic potential is too low for her to have legitimately been accepted to the school, in fact, pathologically so, but was admitted by mistake because of a rounding error. This winds up deconstructed, as Atshi willfully rushes into danger over and over so that she can save everyone and prove that she deserves to be there, but just makes everything worse.

Double Standard: Shimei feels very strongly about housekeepers knowing their place, and not trying to better themselves by getting an educationnote despite the school board letting housekeepers enroll, meaning she is even more reactionary than they and as such belittles Atshi at every turn. Yet she holds Luntsha in high regard, despite Luntsha also being a housekeeper, and even less submissive. Word of God says Shimei tolerates Luntsha because she isn’t a failure at magic like Atshi is, but that just raises the question of why she is so angry that housekeepers attend the school.

Seamless Spontaneous Lie: After the guard blocking the way to town calls Shimei’s bluff, Atshi steps in and adds some more details that actually make the guard believe it, namely, that they are leaving the school grounds only on their teacher’s permission.

Armies Are Evil
 Anecdote of Error (Webcomic) / int_c9aea8c8
comment
Armies Are Evil: Alemi’s armed forces, the Dalgysume, commit war crimes as a matter of course. They consider a school full of children to be a legitimate military target, and their founder was known for killing his captives by tearing them limb from limb. As a result, his killer is honored as a hero everywhere except Alemi. But in Alemi, people believe his victims deserved it, which completely disgusts Yensha when she hears this.

This is particularly improbable considering that Word of God has said that the majority of girls become housekeepers and don’t go to school.

The Napoleon: Downplayed with Luntsha, who is sensitive about her height, being a second year who is shorter than all the first years, and is overjoyed to find that Atshi is the exception.

 Anecdote of Error (Webcomic) / int_dca70c44
comment
Reasonable Authority Figure: Despite having a fan reputation of being a hardass, Talshko qualifies. She keeps Atshi in the school after they find out that she is a housekeeper and doesn’t actually have enough magic to make the cut, and just lets her off with a warning after she confronts the Alemi soldiers who attacked the museum. But she does have her limits, and expels Luntsha for breaking Zeya out of jail. Her brutal treatment of enemy combatants is meant to be shocking because she is otherwise able to be negotiated with.

Loves the Sound of Screaming: Yensha claims to have relished in Dolvyn Dal’s screams when she killed him, though considering what kind of person he was, and that she is interrogating an enemy soldier when she says this, it is unclear whether this is true, nor can one feel bad for her victim if it is.

Exact Words: Luntsha tries to pull this on Yensha, when the latter tells her she doesn’t make deals with schoolchildren. Luntsha points out that she just got expelled and so isn’t a schoolchild anymore, but Yensha practically tells her to fuck off. Luntsha manages to make a deal anyway using Reverse Psychology.

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Whether or not the reader thinks this applies to Luntsha getting expelled for freeing Zeya depends on whether they believe that Zeya is redeemable or not. As far as Talshko and Yensha were concerned, she had just committed treason out of naïve sentimentality.

Fantastic Caste System
 Anecdote of Error (Webcomic) / int_edcc813f
comment
Fantastic Caste System: Every Batean child chooses a rite that will determine their rights and privileges for the rest of their lives. Atshi and Luntsha’s rite is the Housekeeper, and housekeepers are treated like second-class citizens, not being permitted to go anywhere without an escort and expected to stay home, do all the chores, and look after the children. Since housekeepers are designated long before adulthood, there technically isn’t a rule prohibiting them from attending school, but they are looked down upon if they choose to do so. Shimei treats Atshi like crap for this reason, and Atshi’s hopelessness with magic only makes it worse.

comment
Beware the Nice Ones: Atshi looks harmless, but if you threaten the school, she will mean business. That said, her ineptitude lessens the overall effect. Litasha is a Misplaced Kindergarten Teacher, and seems pretty harmless, but her idea of reassuring her students that everything is all right after an attack is to tell them that the school faculty are going to extrajudicially execute the soldier responsible, all while maintaining her usual demeanor. Luntsha is appropriately horrified.
