Ookamikakushi/Characters
This character sheet is currently a work in progress. Feel free to help fill it out.
Hiroshi Kuzumi
- Anti-Hero: Type I
- The Atoner: Became this for Mana out of guilt for sending her home when he wanted to visit his grandparents alone, which caused her accident.
- Attractive Bent Gender Episode twelve
- Bishonen
- Butt Monkey: He spends the entirety of episode twelve playing this role. For example, he learns the hard way that no, everything is NOT better with bunnies.
- Cruel and Unusual Death: In one of the Visual Novel's endings. It's not exactly pretty...
- Driven to Suicide: His fate in one of the endings.
- Interrupted Suicide: Depending on earlier choices made, but don't count on this leading to a good end.
- Dude Looks Like a Lady
- Embarrassing Nickname: He doesn’t like being called “Hakase-kun” (professor). Doesn’t stop Kaname from calling him such, though.
- Even the Guys Want Him: Just ask Issei!
- Meganekko
- Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Turns out Hiroshi gives off a strong scent that causes the Kamibito residents to give in to their animal instincts. Because his scent is particularly strong, this is what’s causing the new batch of murders.
- Sanity Slippage: In some endings of the VN, Hiroshi gets turned into a Kamibito and goes insane from it.
- Supernaturally Delicious and Nutritious
- Taking the Bullet: Does this for Nemuru in the finale of the Visual Novel.
- Too Dumb to Live: Consistently in the anime, contributing to him being The Scrappy. Let's just say the anime would've been a lot shorter if Hiroshi had done what any sane person would do in the predicaments he finds himself in.
- Yuu Kobayashi
Mana Kuzumi
- Annoying Younger Sibling: She used to be this to Hiroshi until after his sending her away led to her accident, and he was reproached with guilt.
- Demoted to Extra: She plays a much smaller role in the finale of the anime than in the VN.
- Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette
- Nice Hat
- Saki Fujita
- Shaming the Mob: In the Visual Novel's finale.
- Tsundere
Nemuru Kushinada
- Cosplay: As Usa Eru in episode twelve
- Elegant Gothic Lolita: Episode twelve
- Flanderization: The entirety of episode twelve, but especially during the Usa Eru segment. Then again, given the nature of the episode in question, this was most likely intentional.
- Little Miss Badass
- Mariya Ise
- Missing Mom: Her mother died when she was young.
- Moe: Especially when she’s in her Usa Eru costume.
- Stoic Woobie
- Sugar and Ice Personality
- White-Haired Pretty Girl: When she’s in her scythe girl gear. The anime never explains this.
Isuzu Tsumuhana
- Bokukko
- Break the Cutie: After her brother is killed.
- Clingy Jealous Girl
- Driven to Suicide: Her fate in the good end of her and Hiroshi's arc. You read that right—in the good end.
- Emiri Katou
- Genki Girl
- Gratuitous English: Prone to using this quite a bit in the Visual Novel
- Knife Nut: Dual wields a pair of knives vs. Nemuru in Episode 6.
- Meido Episode twelve
- Only a Flesh Wound: Episode eleven
- Red Eyes, Take Warning: Like brother, like sister
- Too Dumb to Live: Episode eleven. What’s the best solution when someone with a grudge against the entire village is running loose in the forest with a gun? Go wandering through the forest alone, of course!
- Yandere: More prevalent in the bad ends of her and Hiroshi's arc, and in Episode 6 of the anime.
Kaname Asagiri
- Ascended Extra: In the anime, she plays a direct role in the plot, as opposed to playing a more minor role in the VN.
- Demoted to Extra: Until episode eleven, where she basically takes a backseat role.
- Genki Girl
- Mai Fuchigami
- Meido Episode twelve
Issei Tsumuhana
- Broken Ace
- Cute and Psycho
- Depraved Bisexual
- Ho Yay / No Yay: His actions towards Hiroshi come off as very creepy.
- Laughing Mad: His reaction to the execution squad gaining in on him, and the leader of the group stepping forward to kill him in the anime. However, in the VN, he just gives Nemuru one last defying look with his red eyes and lets out a small yelp before he's killed.
- Nobuhiko Okamoto
- Red Eyes, Take Warning
- Sacrificial Lamb
- Sanity Slippage
- Shotacon
Shunichirou Sakaki / Junichi Mukata
- Ax Crazy: Arguably. At the very least, you’ve got to admit he is somewhat unstable, considering he blows up the entire village--or attempts to, depending on whether the player stops him in time--in most of the VN's endings.
- He definitely counts at the end of the anime, though. That Slasher Smile can't be a good sign...
- Bishonen
- Cry for the Devil: His arc in the VN does this for him.
- Death by Adaptation: Type 1
- Disproportionate Retribution: An eye for an eye, a village for a girlfriend!
- Drowning My Sorrows: Does this in one of his first few appearances in the anime while looking back on the day his lover was killed.
- Expy: But is he trying to be Lelouch Lamperouge or Teru Mikami?
- False Friend
- Fan Nickname: He went by "Pharma Dude" until his name was revealed (or at least made more prominent) in episode seven of the anime
- Hot-Blooded
- Hypocrite: One thing consistent about his character in both the anime and the VN is his tendency to call the Kamibito population and Nemuru "murderers" with genuine disgust and hatred...even after he kills, or causes the deaths of, people whom he used to reach his goals.
- Jerkass Dissonance: Immensely popular in spite of his more questionable actions.
- Koji Yusa
- Sugar and Ice: Towards Kaori
- Leitmotif: Kakushi Koudou
- Love Makes You Evil
- Perpetual Frowner
- Poor Communication Kills: So very much in in the Visual Novel's bad endings. The entire tragedy could've been averted if he had known what Kaori being taken away to become a priestess actually was rather than assuming she was taking off to be sacrificed.
- Put Them All Out of My Misery: Type 4, though what exactly pushes him to it differs in the Visual Novel and the anime.
- The last arc is more of a case of Type 3.
- Revenge Before Reason: Oh so very much.
- Slasher Smile: Just one of many not-so-subtle signs that he has finally lost it at the end of the anime.
- Smug Snake: His plans might have been slightly more respected were it not for them relying heavily on the stupidity of the characters, and being foiled by his own.
- Spell My Name with an "S": Can be referred to as Sakagi or Sakaki; his first name Junichiro or Shunichirou.
- Sugar and Ice: Towards Kaori
- Stoic Spectacles
- This Is Unforgivable!: When he starts uttering this phrase, running would be a good idea.
- Villain Ball: In the last few episodes of the anime.
Kaori Mana
- Cooldown Hug: To Sakaki at the end of the anime. And then ten seconds later, this is brutally subverted.
- Death by Adaptation: Type 1
- Expy: In-story example: She bears a strong resemblance to Sakaki’s former lover, Mieko.
- Heroic Sacrifice: At the end of the anime.
- Ill Girl
- Incurable Cough of Death: Arguably. The cough is there to emphasize her illness, but at the end of the anime, she doesn't die from the illness itself; she goes out via Heroic Sacrifice. And at the end of the VN, she doesn't die on-screen, but it's implied she will eventually die from her illness.
- Nice Hat: VN only.
- Taking the Bullet: In the anime.
- Yuko Goto
