Ask me what my top five of anything is, and I will answer!(In my case, probably unranked, because I am not typically a person who is good at choosing a top favorite anything, haha.)

themes:
1. GRIEF & MOURNING GRIEF & MOURNING GRIEF & MOURNING
2. the world may be grim & harsh & cruel, and terrible things can happen—but there’s still hope, and there's still goodness & kindness. Relatedly, kindness as a strength, rather than foolish naivety.
3. immigrant narratives, specifically exploring what it means to be the child of immigrants or having grown up in a foreign country—and even more specifically the tension of that in-between state: of being connected to two countries/cultures but not fully belonging to either
4. environmentalist themes, especially in the context of emphasizing humans as being a part of nature rather than something separate from it. Think of the original FF7.
5. the horrors & senselessness of war.
tropes:
1. TIME TRAVEL
2. enemies teaming up/having to work together for Reasons!!! (including: enemies reluctantly teaming up, enemies who respect each other teaming up, enemies to friends, enemies to friends to lovers… in short, enemies working together!! <3)
3. that h/c trope where a character silently suffers without anyone knowing until Something happens to force it out into the open <333
4. stranded together/survival scenarios!
5. huddling for warmth <3
