Line 41:
* [[Cannot Spit It Out]]: {{spoiler|Sasamori}}'s crush on Toru, sadly because she {{spoiler|literally cannot imagine Toru accepting a confession from her}}... which actually saves her from the Iris Hunter.
** Also {{spoiler|Tokita to Kuga,}} which Asahi calls him on when he laments that his feelings "never reached" {{spoiler|Kuga.}}
* [[Chekhov's Gun]]: {{spoiler|Hijiri's knife that he once used to [[Self
* [[The Chessmaster]]: Toru is a budding Chessmaster, by necessity to maintain his minimal exposure while helping people, best displayed in the Iris Hunter arc.
* [[Class Is in Room X-01]]: [[Averted Trope|Averted]]. The six main characters are in two different classes.
Line 77:
* [[Good Parents]]: Kuga's mother. She deeply cares about her daughter's happiness.
* [[Good Powers, Bad People]]: {{spoiler|Kuga's Iris is able to see other people's emotions through a colored butterfly. She doesn't use this in a very good way....}}
* [[Generation Xerox]]: Kuga and her mother. {{spoiler|Their respective partners have betrayed them in some way.}} Kuga's mother fears it may also happen in a future.
* [[Guile Hero]]: Given that his backstory involves him {{spoiler|hiding his powerlessness from everyone for years,}} of course Toru ended up one of these.
** Given the low-action nature of the series, pretty much everyone shows signs of being a [[Guile Hero]] (or [[Magnificent Bastard]], if they're holding the [[Villain Ball]]) at one time or another, to allow them to participate in the drama. What Toru's got over everyone else is lots and lots of practice at it, and he never stops.
*** Sasamori is pretty much the only one guaranteed to not get a turn playing the [[Guile Hero]]. Not because she's stupid (she's not) but because she's extremely bull-headed when it comes to a problem, which Hijiri counts as a titanic strength easily on par with Toru's talents. When the others can't plot or misdirect around a problem, Sasamori can (and will) bear down on it full force with raw idealism and emotional appeals.
* [[Headphones Equal Isolation]]: Explicitly invoked by Toru, who regularly hides behind a [[
* [[Heart Is an Awesome Power]]: Almost all of the Irises would be considered a joke in another manga.
* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: Sasamori describes Toru and Hijiri as a "happy couple," with each being the first one the other goes to for anything, including company for lunch despite being in different classes
Line 127:
* [[Personality Powers]]: A person's Iris molds their personality, at least somewhat.
** Sasamori is a complete [[Averted Trope|aversion]]. Her Iris is based around judging people and their suitability to an action, almost to the point of predestining people to certain roles. Yet she's the least judgmental person in the school and has spoken strongly against the idea that people can't do something just because an Iris has declared them unsuited.
* [[Poisonous Friend]]: Asahi {{spoiler|is the person who outed Toru as a Zero}} in their shared backstory. Also, {{spoiler|Tokita to Kuga}}.
** {{spoiler|Nope, Tokita's actually supporting Kuga.}}
* [[Poor Communication Kills]]: Averted. Your death Iris says someone is in danger? Make a beeline for the [[Awesomeness By Analysis]] [[Knight in Sour Armor]] and ''let him know''.
