Kagerou: Difference between revisions

* [[Four Eyes, Zero Soul]]: {{spoiler|Kano's father}} by a long shot. For the zero soul part, [http://www.electric-manga.com/49/24.html just watch].

* [[Freudian Excuse]]: [[Discussed Trope|Discussed]] by {{spoiler|Red when Dark writes the names of all his victims on his prison walls.}}

* [[Freudian Trio]]: All accounted for in the personalities of [[The Hero|our hero]], simultaneously adhering to and deviating from the original model more than ever.

** Kano is the ego and also [[The Face]] personality, the closest thing to a balance between the extremes of the others.

* [[Mad Eye]]: Kano's pupils are often drastically different sizes. Kid has it too, inside Kano's head.

* [[The Maze]]: The slums of the city of Ir are the outskirts of a labyrinth imposing enough that not even the children of the slums go in too deep, at the center of which lie some ruins which the purpose of the labyrinth is to protect people from.

** All to keep people safe from a monument called The Eye...which Kano has a somewhat unpleasant encounter with.

* [[Meaningful Name]]: The villain, as well as Heyoka.

** Also probably the titular villain Kuroyama. It roughly means "mirage," and at the very least references the story's [[Surreal Horror|nature]].

** Kid named his older brother/[[Guardian Entity|guardian angel]] Dark because he wasn't afraid of the dark, and Kid himself is known by this nickname because he doesn't seem to have a real one and will introduce himself by a new ridiculous title every time you ask him.

'''Kid:''' {{color|#0000FF|Then can I be Harry Potter?}} }}

* [[Mental World]]: A good chunk of the story is Fuuka's journey through Kano's chaotic, nightmarish mind, and the horrible things that happen while she is there.

* [[No Name Given]]: The nick, Red {{spoiler|(at first)}}, and a few others.

* [[Obfuscating Stupidity]]: Dee's childish quirks mask the true expanse of her insight and power, which are vast.

* [[Oh Crap]]: [http://www.electric-manga.com/48/18.html Yeah.] Kano does this supremely well.

* [[One-Scene Wonder]]: Father Kwellar.

* [[Surrounded by Idiots]]: Cho isn't super cagey about expressing her exasperation with the team she's been saddled with.

* [[Talking in Your Sleep]]:

* [[Talking to Themself]]: Kano's introduction to Red is when Red hangs him from the ceiling for a little chit-chat, inside the skull they both live in.

* [[Teach Him Anger]]: What Red seems to be attempting to do to Kano.

* [[The Undead]]: Zombies attack the heroes when [[Physical God|the Gods]] start to [[The Plague|lose their grip]] [[The Virus|on things]]. Kano is surprised that they are really there, as he frequently [[Hallucinations|hallucinates]] that corpses are attacking him (he tries to discreetly shoo the visions away). Ghosts are some of the many residents of Kano's head, though whether they are real souls or [[Our Ghosts Are Different|just impressions]] is unclear. Either way, they're equally creepy.

* [[Unexplained Recovery]]: This trope is not a true definition of Kano's death-and-revival, but he invokes it later to explain.

'''[[The Stoic|Starless]]:''' {{color|#5E5A80|Indeed.}}<br />

'''Kano:''' {{color|#348017|...I got better.}} }}

* [[The Voiceless]]: Dark. Included in his repertoire of scars are those from when he once sewed his mouth shut. May communicate with mostly nonsensical, tortured psychic vibes.

* [[Waking Non Sequitur]]:

* [[Weapon of Choice]]:

** Kano, surprisingly, is big on blades (if you trust [[The Trickster|Re]][[Jerkass|d]], anyway). He is ''[[Squee|very enthusiastic]]'' about his [[Cool Sword|magic sword]].
