Line 28:
* [[Betty and Veronica]]: Shinichi gets into something of a [[Love Triangle]] with his current girlfriend, Satomi Murano (Betty), and the rebellious girl Kana (Veronica). {{spoiler|Kana unfortunately dies, and because of the missed schooling, his future with Satomi is uncertain at best.}}
* [[Big No]]: Shinichi has one when {{spoiler|Kabuto is about to cut Satomi's throat}}, and again when {{spoiler|she's falling from a building}}.
* [[Blade
* [[Blue and Orange Morality]]: Migi has no qualms about {{spoiler|[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/kiseijuu/c042/11.html pickpocketing in order to remain undetected]}}.
* [[Body Horror]]: To put it mildly, it's the page image on the trope page for a reason.
Line 62:
* [[It's Personal]]: After {{spoiler|a Parasite took over Shinichi's mother and came very close to killing him,}} Shinichi becomes a bit more ruthless in his pursuit.
** Averted when he's beaten {{spoiler|Gotoh, and the pieces are trying desperately to reunite, probably in vain.}} He's about to leave him like that, but instead makes it clear that it's [[Nothing Personal]] before dispatching him, thereby also nicely averting [[Once Is Not Enough]], because he makes ''sure'' that he's dead.
* [[Kill It
* [[Kill the Cutie]]: {{spoiler|Poor Kana.}}
* [[Life or Limb Decision]]: Invoked. Shinichi is just [[Genre Savvy]] enough to tourniquet his own arm and prevent Migi from reaching his brain -- and it's just the first chapter.
Line 72:
* [[Mundane Utility]]: Shinichi using Migi to deliver the ultimate [[Fastball Special]] in chapter 24 counts as this.
* [[My Sensors Indicate You Want to Tap That]]: Migi. He even shapeshifts into a [[Gag Penis|gargantuan penis]], in public, because of this.
* [[Off
* [[Nigh Invulnerable]]: Gotoh
* [[Paper-Thin Disguise]]: Normally averted by the Parasites, but Mori's Parasite attempts this by giving him a ridiculous jawline when he and Shinichi have to kidnap somebody.
Line 87:
* [[Shapeshifter Weapon]]: Parasites can transform the parts of their hosts' bodies that they've taken over (usually just the head) into...''things'' that can shred human flesh '''faster than the eye can see'''.
* [[Shout-Out]]:
** The Parasites' body distortion mentioned above seems to be inspired by [http://www.doc.gold.ac.uk/~mas02fl/MSC101/Vision/Pics/EscherBondUnion2.jpg MC Escher's 'Bond Of Union'], by way of [[John Carpenter]]'s ''[[The Thing (
** The idea of the Parasites taking over the government to some degree is most definitely inspired by ''[[They Live]]''.
* [[Shut UP, Hannibal]]: {{spoiler|The militaries don't wait to the end of Takeshi Hirokawa's speech to shoot.}}
