=== This series contains examples of: ===
 
* [[Blood From the Mouth]]: Happens ([[High-Pressure Blood|at high velocity]]) during the final moments of the victim's life, along with blood from the nose, and the ears, and eyes... and every other orifice.
Line 15:
* [[Cat Smile]]: Mori surprises Onotera with a [[Cat Smile]] while he's raging about Japan's lack of preparedness for a major disease outbreak... he's even further surprised when she starts gushing over the possibility that she could get a chance to study a disease as rare and deadly as Ebola.
* [[Completely Missing the Point]]: When the results come in and the disease is confirmed to {{spoiler|''not'' be Ebola}}, the protagonist starts celebrating... until his partner informs him that the news means {{spoiler|''[[Fridge Horror|they're dealing with a completely unknown new viral pathogen.]]''}}
* [[Corrupt Corporate Executive]]: The head of the Infectious Disease Center prefers to play golf all the time and have his second in command handle the situation. As the situation grows more dire, he goes public saying that the virus is under containment despite the fact that the doctors and scientists studying the case have not gotten nearly far with their research. His reason? ''[[Only in It For Thethe Money|He doesn't want the stock market to go down even further than it already has]].
* [[Decoy Protagonist]]: Since she appears on the cover and since the first chapter revolves around her, it's very easy to mistake Akari for the series' protagonist. {{spoiler|She gets infected with the disease at the very beginning of the story, and from then until the very end does nothing except lying in her hospital bed looking miserable. Her family doctor becomes the hero.}}
* [[Deus Ex Machina]]: Just when it seems that all hope is lost, {{spoiler|the virus is defeated by [[The Power of Love]].}}
