Line 8:
** Basil himself doesn't seem to know why {{spoiler|he thought it was a good idea to fake Mari's death as a suicide rather than dial 911 or get the neighbors, to explain that Mari had an accident and she needed help. He says in denial that it wasn't Sunny who pushed Mari down the stairs, that it was Something}}
** Is Hero really the paragon that everyone thinks he is or was he a teenager put on a pedestal? Kel relates bitterly that Hero lashed out at him {{spoiler|after Mari died and Kel attempted to comfort him, and their parents cared more about Hero than Kel crying.}} Hero himself doesn't remember this and is ashamed when Kel reminds him. Yet in the present, Hero acts exactly like the boy he used to be, saving Sunny and Basil from drowning, taking charge, and carrying Basil to his home. Did college and getting some space away from the trauma help him regian his former self?
* [[Awesome Music]]: Quite a few from both the trailers and
** Bo en's "My Time" which plays in the 2014 Kickstarter trailer and {{spoiler|the worst ending where Omori possesses Sunny and tosses his body off the hospital roof}}. It is haunting while reflecting the themes of the game.
** "Final Duet," the music that Mari and Sunny were supposed to play {{spoiler|before Sunny killed Mari by accident. To defeat Omori, Sunny has to stand, grab his violin, and play the music to properly say goodbye to his sister}}.
* [[Crosses The Line Twice]]: Some of {{spoiler|Basil's deaths in Blackspace}} trigger this reaction from the player. In the first room where you find {{spoiler|Basil}}, there are a bunch of watermelons, and one of them has the key. {{spoiler|After you cut open six watermelons, clicking on the seventh causes Basil to fall apart like watermelon chunks}}. One YouTuber at least has burst out laughing at the scene, because of its randomness.
* [[Epileptic Trees]]: Given some hints in the Hikikomori route from the NPCs, some fans have theorized that Headspace may not be merely Sunny's dream world, but an [[Eldritch Location]] that changes based on the Dreamworld.
* [[Fanfic Fuel]]:
** Considering that Basil in the real world is haunted by Something, one that looks different from Sunny's Something, one wonders how Headspace would look depending on who in the friend group is the Dreamer. For example, what would Aubrey or Hero's Headspace look like?
** What if it had been another kid in the friend group who {{spoiler|killed a loved one by accident and covered it up as a suicide?}} There are some fics that discuss {{spoiler|what if it had been Kel that pushed Hero down the stairs in their house, or vice-versa}}. Some AUs even discuss what if {{spoiler|Mari had killed Sunny by accident, and Hero helped her stage it as a suicide}}.
* [[The Woobie]]: Quite a few:
** Sunny is a sweet boy who has become a teenage recluse, to the point where Kel and Aubrey need a moment to recognize how much he's changed. His father has long left the family, and {{spoiler|may have disowned Sunny if you believe a scene in Blackspace 2 in the Hikikomori Route}}. While the {{spoiler|scene that shows he killed Mari by accident}} is painful, we also see many times that {{spoiler|he never meant to hurt her, and the guilt has turned Sunny into a former shell of the boy that he used to be}}.
