- Goddamned Bats: The rifle-armed Shibito in the first game.
- Narm Charm: The British voices from the first game can be this for some. While the fact that all the characters are Japanese and obviouly wouldn't be speaking English at all (nevermind with British accents), the fact that the voice actors don't go so over the top like the English voice actors in, say, Blood Curse do (mostly because they were basically all anime voice actors) makes them sound more like real people than someone reading from a script.
- Nightmare Retardant: Yoriko Anno asking "is that a real gun?" served to be nightmare retardant.
- Note: Handguns and rifles are illegal to own in Japan only shotguns are legal with stiff restrictions.
- Also: Realistic-looking airsoft guns are popular toys over there. It's not actually a bad question.
- Rescued from the Scrappy Heap: Yoriko Anno spends most of the early game whining about how miserable she is and bugging Professor Takeuchi or whomever else she gets partnered with. After she gets shot, however, and gets a blood transfusion from Kyoya Suda, she apparently gets a dose of his nascent Badass-itude.
- That One Level: Reiko escorting Harumi through the school in the first game. Mainly thanks to a game 'feature' where collected items aren't kept if you die and continue. Here, it's required that you use Harumi to grab an item just before the halfway checkpoint in order to proceed with the game, and so any deaths in the level will require you to start from the very beginning, lest you miss the item. Did I mention Harumi literally can't get anywhere NEAR a Shibito without dying?
- What an Idiot!: Really, Mamoru? The whole "this enormous scale is from my mother" thing didn't tip you off at all that there might be something weird about Yuri? To be fair, it's possible she has some sort of clamouring powers.
- The Woobie:
- Though not apparent at first, Reiko sees Harumi as a daughter to cope with the loss of her own daughter Megumi after a freak summer break accident.
- Harumi. Listen to her as she loses her beloved teacher when she witnesses the aftermath of Reiko's Heroic Sacrifice, and again when said teacher returns, but as a Shibito.
- Tomoko. She spends most of her story arc separated from her parents, and returns to them unknowingly as a Shibito, and is quickly rejected by her traumatised and terrified parents. Tomoko turns away, heartbroken. The family is able to live together in the end, as Shibito, so it thankfully gets better. Just not for Harumi.
- Ichiko. She wakes up on a ferry with the undead after her. And then it turns out she died, got possessed, then felt guilty to the point of tears when she realises she killed Shigeru when Otoshigo possessed her to do so.
