- Contemplate Our Navels: Quite a lot. Including some rather amusing thoughts on Save Points by Bear.
- Crowning Moment of Funny
 |
Sora: Tsukasa! Let's play red light/green light! |

- Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: Any exchange between Tsukasa and Subaru later on in the series.
- Crowning Music of Awesome: Yuki Kajiura certainly knew what she was doing: the Celtic influence on the music parallels its influence on the story. The DVD for .hack//SIGN gives the option to turn off dialogue and leave only the music.
- Fan Wank: Early romance fanfiction retconning Tsukasa as a biological male is the most egregious of Fan Wank behavior in the .hack fanfic community.
- Memetic Mutation: The monkey dance.
- "This shindig looks like the bomb-diggity."
- Considering B.T. frequently has chats with Sora, she was killed by him a few times in the game, and attacked by two player killers in a dungeon. This eventually becomes a joke in .Hack//GIFT, where absolutely no one is surprised to see that B.T. was murdered yet again.
- All you have to do is yell out "I'm stuck in the game!" or "I can't log out!" around anyone who has seen this show, especially in an MMORPG, to spark laughter, or joining in.

- The Woobie / Jerkass Woobie: Subaru and Tsukasa, the latter's "jerkass" status depending on the portion of the series that you're looking at.
