Kuon: Difference between revisions

* [[Aloof Big Brother]]: Doryou, when he's not being a [[Jerkass]], though he does help Sakuya occasionally and makes a point of how even he can be nice at times.

* [[Berserk Button]]: When {{spoiler|one of the twins}} is killed by Sakuya, {{spoiler|the remaining twin}} loses it. She shows up later, drenched in blood and near death.

* [[Body Horror]]: Your average Gaki is small, bloated creature half-rotten and covered in blood, but that doesn't compare to demons like the centipede-woman (who literally tears herself apart when she transforms) or the incomplete cocoons, which look like humans wrapped in silk that drag themselves across the ground, moaning pitifully. Most of the corpses are also horribly disfigured.

* [[Covert Pervert]]: Doman, who mentions in his notes that {{spoiler|he intends to have Seimei whore herself to him.}}

* [[Dead All Along]]: {{spoiler|Kureha,}} who died long before the start of the story and was ressurected.

* [[Decoy Protagonist]]: {{spoiler|Both Utsuki and Sakuya, who will both be put out of commission. Abe no Seimei is the true hero.}}

* [[Dying Dream]]: One theory is that the whole of the Yin phase was just {{spoiler|Utsuki remembering what had happened after Kureha kills her.}}

* [[Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette]]: Every single character, especially the women.

* [[Heartbeat Soundtrack]]: Whenever an enemy is near.

* [[Hime Cut]]: Utsuki, Kureha, Ayako

* [[Horror Hunger]]: The Gaki have a ferocious appetite for human flesh. Particularly that of young girls...

* [[Ill Girl]]: Kureha

* [[Ironic Nursery Tune]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EdwIL1G_CI&feature=related "Hashizoroe"]. The name refers to a ceremony where a child is fed with chopsticks for the first time. Scary, right?

* [[Keigo]]: Being set in the Heian period, of course everyone speaks this way.

* [[Mad Scientist's Beautiful Daughter|Mad Onmyouji's Beautiful Daughters]]: Kureha and Utsuki, though they're not all they seem...

* [[Manipulative Bastard]]: Doman {{spoiler|who sends his remaining daughter, disciples and all the inhabitants of the manor to their deaths just so he can try and prove he is more powerful than Seimei. The bastard!}}

* [[Ominous Fog]]

* [[Onmyodo]]: Seimei, Doman and his disciples are all ''onmyouji'' and most of the magic in the game is based off ''onmyodo'', including the spells, seals and puzzles.

** [[Spring Loaded Corpse]]

* [[Plucky Girl]]: Sakuya, who seems mostly unfazed by the curse or the creepy mansion, and calmly slaughters the Gaki left and right. Even Utsuki qualifies, since she continued searching for her father despite how afraid and alone she was.

* [[Staking the Loved One]]: {{spoiler|Sakuya}} is forced to destroy {{spoiler|her brother}} after he is affected by the curse.

* [[Stringy Haired Ghost Girl]]: {{spoiler|Kureha}} under the influence of the curse greatly resembles one of these.

* [[The Stoic]]: Sakuya and especially Seimei, who remains serene even under horrific circumstances.

* [[The Virus]]: The Kuon curse, which is passed from person to person and causes them to go mad and devour other humans. Unless they merge with their victims, they will eventually perish.

* [[Zombie Gait]]: The Gaki move like this. At least the ones that have legs...
