Line 33:
** [[Improbable Aiming Skills]]
* [[Kick the Dog]]: Happens several times to Yuki. Most notably when, {{spoiler|he forgives his father for killing his mother, and everyone looks like it is going to be alright until John Balks' hitmen assassinate Yuki's dad.}}
* [[Kid Withwith the Leash]]: The only one who can ground Yuno in anyway.
* {{spoiler|[[Love Makes You Crazy]]: For his dead parents AND Yuno}}
* [[Meaningful Name]]: His last name contains the kanji for "heaven" and can be read as heavenly field. It's fitting, considering his first name is a corruption of "Jupiter", the Roman [[God of Gods]]. {{spoiler|He ends up winning the game of the second world among the other potential gods.}}
* {{spoiler|[[The Messiah]]: in the 3rd world. See [[Spanner in Thethe Works]] below.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Necessarily Evil]]: Yuki becomes willing to kill the other diary owners if it means resurrecting his parents, although he admits he does not wish to do so, but is equally afraid to face life without his parents.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Necromantic]]}}: His eventual reason for trying to win the game.
Line 44:
* [[The Protagonist]]
* [[Say My Name]]: When turns down the opportunity to go stargazing.
* [[Spanner in Thethe Works]]: {{spoiler|He hijacks the entire future of the 3rd Survival game when he follows Yuno to the 3rd world, since his data entries in the 2nd game show up in 3rd world's John Balk's diary and warn him of the incoming disasters. It changes every diary holder's future and gives them happy endings.}}
* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: Yuno calls him "Yuki" or "Yukki", depending on which version you're reading.
** In messages and diary entries, ユッキ― is normally used, which is romanized as "Yukkii".
* [[Tears of Fear]]: He tends to do this often in the beginning.
Line 69:
* {{spoiler|[[All Take and No Give]]: Yuno tries to convince herself and Yuki that their love has been fake, and they have been merely using one another, Yuki using Yuno as a guard whilst Yuno used Yuki as emotional support. She fails to convince Yuki or herself.}}
* [[Anti-Villain]]
* [[Aren't You Going to Ravish Me?|Aren't You Going To Ravish Me?]]: Played with in chapter 10.
* [[Axe Crazy]]: Especially when she thinks her relationship with Yukiteru is threatened.
* [[Badass Adorable]]
Line 83:
* [[Curtains Match the Window]]: Pink hair and eyes.
* [[Dark Action Girl]]
** [[Action Girlfriend]]: Declares herself such to Yukiteru and [[Stalker Withwith a Crush|eventually]] it just sticks.
* {{spoiler|[[Dead Person Impersonation]]: She impersonates herself!}}
* {{spoiler|[[Death Seeker]]: Not outright stated, but Yuno heavily implies that she wants Yukiteru to be the winner of the game in the second world, rather than win it herself and repeat the whole scenario a third time. She only tries to kill him when he absolutely refuses to take her life, and she decides to repeat the game in the third world for another shot at setting him up to win while spending more time with him again. And even then, when Yukiteru told her to just stab him and be the winner of the second world's game, she decides to just [[Driven to Suicide|kill herself]] anyway.}}
Line 92:
* [[Elevator Snare]]: In their first meeting, Yuno forces her way into an elevator, corners the terrified Yuki, and then gives him his [[First Kiss]]. Cue the [[Uncomfortable Elevator Moment]], at least for Yuki.
* [[Evil Laugh]]: Yuno just can't help herself from ''laughing her butt off'' when she succeeds at manipulating Yuki into killing Hinata.
* [[Evil Sounds Deep]]: Much like [[Darkstalkers (Video Game)|B.B. Hood/ Bulleta]], Yuno goes from squeaky and adorable to guttural and menacing whenever she's incredibly pissed.
* [[Feminine Women Can Cook]]: Uses it to impress Yukiteru's mother. How feminine she is is up for debate though, considering {{spoiler|her fallback plan if that didn't work was to use her "tools."}}
* [[Foot Focus]]: After a long day, Yuno comes home and ditches her shoes to relax barefoot... only to get attacked by a [[Enfante Terrible|4-year-old kid who gasses her house]]. Unfortunately, Yuno can't get her shoes because the kid could strike while her guard's down, so she has no choice but to stay barefoot- which the kid [[Genre Savvy|exploits]]. He smashes a lamp on the stairwell for a jolt of raw electricity... which conducts itself into the oily soles of Yuno's feet, giving her a nasty sting. Then, he tricks Yuno into running after him. Careless, she misses a trap laid on the floor- and mashes her bare feet right onto a patch of thumbtacks. If Yuno's smart, she'll probably make sure to wear slippers at home from now on.
* {{spoiler|[[Future Me Scares Me]]: After being rebuked by her past self in the third world, Yuno actually starts shaking once she realizes how much she had changed when she lost all of her hope for the future, and seriously looks frightened at what she's become, having a minor [[My God, What Have I Done?]] moment.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Gas Chamber]]: In a surprising change from the manga, Yuno traps Akise, Mao and Kosaka in a room which is filling with gas. In the manga, she filled it with concrete.}}
* [[Girl Withwith Psycho Weapon]]: Though, unlike other [[Yandere|Yanderes]], she doesn't seem to have an iconic weapon.
** She is most commonly portrayed with the axe that she wields in the battle against Number 6, though.
* [[Girlish Pigtails]]
Line 117:
* [[Meaningful Name]]: Her full name can be read as "my wife Yuno". Seeing as Yukiteru is named for Jupiter though, the kanji for Yuno's given name is really "Juno" read as Yuno (In central European languages the letter J is pronounced like what Y is pronounced in English), so even more fittingly for Yukiteru, is the reading "my wife, Juno". Which is fitting, because Juno, just like her Greek-counterpart Hera, can get mad easily at anyone that stole Jupiter/Zeus' love, and will chase them down to the end of Earth (Then there's the fact that Juno is a war goddess too)
* [[Murder Is the Best Solution]] [[Murder the Hypotenuse|Especially For The Hypotenuse]]: In her own words "Everyone who comes between me and Yukki can just die!" Probably comes with the whole Yandere thing.
* [[Not Good Withwith Rejection]]: And HOW.
* [[Obfuscating Stupidity]]: Though there were earlier hints, [[Fridge Logic]] tells you she has been displaying this the entire story. {{spoiler|We find out she has played the survival game through before, so either she pretends not to know, or has [[Laser-Guided Amnesia|repressed it]] completely.}}
* [[Offscreen Teleportation]]
Line 134:
* [[Sidekick Ex Machina]]
* [[Slasher Smile]]: Played with. The constant [[Moe Stare]] she sports on may as well be considered a [[Slasher Smile]] depending on context.
* [[Stalker Withwith a Crush]]
* [[Stalking Is Love]]
* [[Stepford Smiler]]: Extremely Type C.
Line 144:
* [[Uncanny Valley Girl]]:
* [[Unskilled but Strong]]: Polar opposite of Yukki, in that her diary is almost completely useless except when paired with Yukki's, she is actually one of the strongest fighters. The only ones shown to best her in combat being {{spoiler|Sevenths and Akise.}}
* [[Villain Protagonist]]: {{spoiler|Subverted in the later chapters when she becomes Yukiteru's enemy. She [[Zig -Zagging Trope|doubles back]] on that after she kills herself instead of him, though.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Villainous Breakdown]]: Has one towards the end of the manga when Yuki refuses to kill her, prompting her to try to kill him, leap back in time again to restart the game and kill herself again. She fails, realising she cannot kill Yuki and seals him in an illusionary world to escape him. She gets better though.}}
* [[Violently Protective Girlfriend]]
Line 237:
* [[Attempted Rape]]: {{spoiler|Tsubaki orders the cult members to strip and gang-rape the captive Yuno, in an attempt to lure the escaped Yukiteru out. He pulls a [[Big Damn Heroes]] and stops her.}}
* [[Broken Bird]]
* {{spoiler|[[Cry for Thethe Devil]]}}
* [[Damsel in Distress]]: {{spoiler|She plays the part ''[[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing|really]]'' [[Decoy Damsel|well]], at least.}}
* [[Despair Event Horizon]]: Crossed in her [[Backstory]], after {{spoiler|her [[Tragic Keepsake]] disappears, thus she has no way to keep her sanity in between all of the abuse the Omekatas subject her to.}}
Line 254:
* [[Omniscient Council of Vagueness]]: The leader.
* [[Peek-a-Bangs]]: Her right eye is almost always covered by her hair.
* {{spoiler|[[Rape Asas Backstory]]: After her parents (and the Omekata founders) were killed, Tsubaki was imprisoned and used as a [[Sex Slave]] by the cult while making her "pose" as the leaderess.}}
* [[Rapunzel Hair]]: Long black hair reaching her hips.
** All the way down to her feet [http://www.future-diary.tv/chara/6th.html in the anime].
Line 284:
* [[Eighties Hair]]: Marco sports a long, curled perm.
* {{spoiler|[[Graceful Loser|Graceful Losers]]: When it becomes obvious that they are going to die, they don't take Yukiteru and Yuno down with them and even give them their last parachute, making it possible for the two to escape from Sakurami Tower.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Impaled Withwith Extreme Prejudice]]: Marco ended up impaled with a metal pipe during 7ths' second battle with Yukiteru and Yuno. Though it probably wasn't this but rather the collapse of the Sakurami Tower that killed him.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Interrupted Suicide]]}}: Marco, in the anime.
* [[Knife Nut]]: Ai prefers throwing knives.
Line 292:
* [[Only Sane Man|Only Sane Couple]]: Out of all the diary owners, Marco and Ai seem the sanest, although this is shared with Kamado and Yuki before his [[Badass]] upgrade.
* [[The Power of Love]]: They insist that this why they win their fights.
* {{spoiler|[[Rape Asas Backstory]]}}: Ai, in the anime.
* [[Together in Death]]
* [[Villainous Valour]]: They prove themselves to be very devoted to one another, [[Foil|even more so than Yuki and Yuno]].
Line 365:
* {{spoiler|[[Karma Houdini]]: Her bodycount probably numbers in hundreds if not thousands, seeing as before the main story started she attacked not only clergymen, but also religious facilities; 12th does mention in ''Mosaic'' that she killed a lot of believers in her attacks. She also murdered an innocent rookie detective to steal her identity in ''Mosaic'', and there's also her school bombing early in the main story. As the 2nd world where she did all of this ultimately gets destroyed, she ends up getting away with this, escaping from the 2nd world and presumably living happily ever after with Nishijima in the 3rd world.}}
* [[Kill the God]]: Her eventual goal once she wins the game. {{spoiler|Though she wouldn't have to work hard on that goal since Deus is dying anyways. What's more, it's lightly hinted that when Deus transferred half of his remaining power to Minene, it actually sped up his coming death, leading to the world to start collapsing earlier than was expected. [[From a Certain Point of View|She ended up achieving her goal, in a way.]]}}
* [[Licked Byby the Dog]]: She seems to be liked by a group of wild squirrels which follow her around.
* [[Love Redeems]]: Kinda. {{spoiler|She gives up terrorism and marries Nishijima in the third world, but her other terrorist-bomber self is still running around there.}}
* [[Mad Bomber]]: She bombs churches and assassinates religious figures.
Line 387:
* [[Slasher Smile]]: Her default expression, though she keeps a much cooler head than most examples.
* [[Sociopathic Hero]]
* {{spoiler|[[Spanner in Thethe Works]]: Becomes the most prominent one near the end of the story, through Deus. Her continued survival throughout the game causes Deus to deem her reliable enough to leave some of his power inside her. After she dies for [[Not Quite Dead|the first time]], she manages to pull a [[Big Damn Heroes]] moment to save Yukiteru from the collapsing second world, and uses Deus' powers to follow Yuno back in time. She then leaves Yukiteru to make a phone call to Kurusu, telling him about his son's future condition and advising him to seek help for it. Her actions caused a domino effect that allowed all of the other Diary Holders (minus Third) to prevent many of their personal tragedies and achieve a happy ending.}}
* [[Third Person Person]]: Occasionally refers to herself as "Minene-sama" [[Badass Boast|because she believes she is just that great]]. She doesn't do it as often as the story progresses, but whenever she gets serious against her opponents it tends to show up.
* [[Throw Down the Bomblet]]
* {{spoiler|1=[[Touched Byby Vorlons]]: Received half of Deus' remaining power when he noticed MuruMuru was unfairly influencing the game to go in Yuno's favor. Deus was hoping that she would use his power to help set the game back on track, and while she did try to honor his request, Yukiteru's decision to [[Screw Destiny]] and help the 3rd world's Yuno made her change course.}}
* [[Deuteragonist|Tritagonist]]: Either she or Akise fit into this role.
* [[Tsundere]]: According to MurMur.
Line 425:
* [[Big Brother Is Watching]]: He's the mayor of the city, and he can spy on all other Diary Holders.
* [[The Chessmaster]]
* {{spoiler|[[Hoist Byby His Own Petard]]: Balks hides himself in a vault in the bank once run by Yuno's parents, believing Yuno will be unable to use the retinal scanner to get in, under the belief she is not the real Yuno. It turns out she is, and Balks has pretty much got himself into a corner.}}
* [[Large Ham]]: Yeah.
* [[Meaningful Name]]: His last name "Balks" can also be read as "Bacchus", the same as the Roman god. [[Tokyo Pop]] seemed to pick up on the reference and translated his name using the same spelling "Bacchus". He's also one of the only diary holders whose namesake isn't a god listed in the Dii Consentes, along with Yomotsu Hirasaka.
** It probably explains why his and Yomotsu's diaries were modified last, making them 11th and 12th, respectively.
* {{spoiler|[[A Nazi Byby Any Other Name]]: His ultimate goal is to use the power of Future Diaries to turn the people of Sakurami into a master race.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Off Withwith His Head]]: Decapitated by Yuno.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Pragmatic Villainy]]: At least in the 3rd world. He convinces Deus to cancel the game and the creation of Future Diaries not because he has a change of heart or anything but because he learns that in the 2nd world the game resulted in his death.}}
* [[Ship Tease]]: Has a bit of it with Kamado. He acts much more gentlemanly towards her than towards other characters; in the manga after she undresses to reveal where she hid her Future Diary, he even gives her his own coat so she wouldn't feel uneasy. {{spoiler|And in one of the closing panels in chapter 59 they can be seen walking together.}} The scene where he gives her his coat wasn't included in the anime {{spoiler|but, on the other hand, in the last episode they are unambiguously shown to be a couple in the third world.}}
* [[Smug Snake]]: Very condescending towards First and Ninth in their attempts to reach him inside the vault.
* [[Villain Withwith Good Publicity]]: Actually contributes to his downfall.
 
-----
Line 502:
* [[Kick the Dog]]: {{spoiler|When he tells the truth to Akise about being an [[Artificial Human]], Akise declares that his love for Yukiteru is genuine. Deus, who is nearly finished in returning Akise to the [[Akashic Records]], tells Akise that those feelings were also programmed into him. Given that Akise is very serious about his love for Yukiteru, it's a low blow, even if it ended up being true.}}
** {{spoiler|He also seriously considers following Eleventh's suggestion to remove Yukiteru and Yuno from the game when they fail to show any activity for five consecutive days. Given that Deus was pressed for time in choosing his successor before he dies, this ends up being more of a [[Kick the Dog]] moment for Eleventh than Deus.}}
* [[Pals Withwith Jesus]]: Pretty much everyone who is able to visit the Hall of Causality is this to him since he's a pretty chill God. Special mention goes to Yukiteru though, whom Deus clearly favors over everyone else.
* {{spoiler|[[Your Days Are Numbered]]}}
 
Line 532:
* {{spoiler|[[Restraining Bolt]]: The bracelets she wears keep her from acting against Deus's will, or so he thought. In chapter 57, she takes them off.}}
** {{spoiler|She continues to serve God's will. It's just that her God is no longer Deus.}}
* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: Although both fan translations of the Manga and the official Tokyopop release spelled her name "MuruMuru", the opening to the anime displays her name as "MurMur".
* [[Verbal Tic]]: Ends every sentence with "-noja", the equivalent of the standard Japanese explanatory expression "-noda" in some Western Japanese dialects<ref>namely, the ones spoken in Okayama, Hiroshima and Yamaguchi prefectures, according to the [http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E6%97%A5%E6%9C%AC%E8%AA%9E%E3%81%AE%E6%96%B9%E8%A8%80%E3%81%AE%E6%AF%94%E8%BC%83%E8%A1%A8#.E8.BF.91.E7.95.BF.E3.81.8B.E3.82.89.E4.B8.AD.E5.9B.BD.E3.81.AB.E3.81.8B.E3.81.91.E3.81.A6.EF.BC.88.E5.B1.B1.E9.99.BD.E9.81.93.EF.BC.89 Japanese] [[The Other Wiki|Other Wiki]].</ref>
 
Line 579:
* [[Nice Guy]]: [[Beware the Nice Ones|For the most part.]] {{spoiler|He didn't kill Yuno when he had the chance because of his better judgment. However, he soon regrets it, and she kills him.}}
* {{spoiler|[[No Good Deed Goes Unpunished]]: Despite Akise sparing Yuno's life when he had the upper hand, she manages to trick his diary by forcing his blade into her abdomen, fulfilling his diary's prophecy and forcing him to waste his time in bandaging her wound so that she won't die, knowing that Yukiteru would lose his trust in Akise if he had allowed Yuno to bleed out. Once he runs to help the others, Yuno calls Yukiteru to lie to him about Akise and his friends, causing Hinata, Mao, and Kousaka to die as a result. Akise even relents that he should have killed her instead of letting her live.}}
* {{spoiler|[[Off Withwith His Head]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Out-Gambitted]]}}
* [[The Quiet One]]
Line 586:
** {{spoiler|Purposely made to be this way so that he would watch over Yukiteru for Deus.}}
* [[Ship Tease]]: A ''lot'' of this with Yukiteru in the main story and ''Paradox''. Also has a fair amount with Tsubaki in ''Paradox'', too.
* [[Shipper Onon Deck]]: Subverted. At first he seems to be pushing Yuki to go out with Yuno going as far as to set them up for a date that could very well make them closer than before. However, this is so he can {{spoiler|trespass in Yuno's home hoping to dig up information that will make Yuki realize how much of a bad person she is.}}
* [[Spanner in Thethe Works]]: The reason 10th got caught in the first place is that he assumed that Akise was a diary wielder and was out to kill him. These turn of events later lead to his death.
** {{spoiler|1=He almost ruins MurMur's plans in Paradox by preventing the tragedies that happen to nearly all the characters.}}
*** {{spoiler|In the main series. His dying message to Yukiteru serves as a catalyst which triggers the events leading to the final act.}}
Line 614:
* [[Kansai Regional Accent]]
* {{spoiler|[[Parental Neglect]]}}
* [[Pointless Band -Aid]]
* [[Theme Naming]]: Just as {{spoiler|her father, Tsukishima, contains the kanji for the moon in his name}}, both her first and last name contain the kanji for the sun.
* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: The tomboy to Mao's girly girl.
Line 642:
Yuki's classmate, who doesn't like him much (the feeling's mutual). He enjoys blogging on his cell phone, which inadvertently connects him to the 8th's Diary. He gets the "Kousaka King Diary" while {{spoiler|attempting to rescue Yuki from Yuno.}} It predicts his "brilliant moments". {{spoiler|Later in the series, it is upgraded to the "Neo Kousaka King Diary", which predicts the brilliant moments of the people around him as well.}}
 
* {{spoiler|[[A Plague Onon Both Your Houses]]}}
* [[Blessed Withwith Suck]]: As Yuno points out after tricking him his diary is fairly weak in its information gathering abilities.
* [[Butt Monkey]]
* [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold]]: But he slides more on the jerk side and rarely shows his heart of gold side.
* [[My Friends and Zoidberg]]: [http://www.mangareader.net/384-26037-17/mirai-nikki/chapter-18.html Justified, in that he's kind of a jerk.]
{{quote| '''Yukiteru''': I don't care much for Kosaka, but...[[The Power of Friendship|I'm gonna be friends with everyone]]!}}
* [[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"]]: The official translation of his name is "Kosaka," but many fan translations render it "Kousaka."
* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: To {{spoiler|Yuki}}.
 
Line 671:
* {{spoiler|[[Hot Dad]]}}
* [[Nice Guy]]
* [[Officer and Aa Gentleman]]
* [[Reasonable Authority Figure]]
* [[The Slacker]]: {{spoiler|Shown to be like this during his time as a rookie in the third world. He seems to be a more serious and competitent cop during the time of the actual story.}}
Line 734:
* [[Clingy Jealous Girl]]: Seems to have hostility towards Rui and Haruna.
* [[Expy]]: Of Yuno, minus the pink hair and seemingly being a bit more controlled and understanding.
* [[Girl Withwith Psycho Weapon]]: Only used a knife on occasion, but tried to use a broken jar to kill Megumi.
* [[Go Through Me]]: To protect Arata.
* [[Lack of Empathy]]: Subverted, as she actually sympathises with both Yousuke and Kinjiro.
* [[Room Full of Crazy]]: {{spoiler|Two rooms in her house. The closet where she was trapped by her mother, and the basement where someone is trapped behind a metal door.}}
** {{spoiler|Revealed to be a secondary Yuno who seems more crazier than the first.}}
* [[Stalker Withwith a Crush]]
* [[Undying Loyalty]]: To Arata.
* [[Yandere]]: Just like her manga/anime counterpart.
Line 749:
* [[The Atoner]]: After giving his friends Future Diaries and forced to watch them fight for their lives, he decides to help end the game and confront Deus.
* [[Brother-Sister Team]]: With Haruna.
* {{spoiler|[[Dropped a Bridge Onon Him]]: In a rather unexpected move, Rui is abruptly killed off in Episode 6 when he takes a taser attack for Arata from his own sister, falls off a bridge and dies.}}
* [[Expy]]: Of Akise. His role as distributor of the diaries is taken from Muru Muru.
* [[Muggle Best Friend]]
Line 777:
* {{spoiler|[[Face Heel Turn]]: Forced to by Kibe to save his lover, although it turns out to be a trap so Kibe can escape a Dead End.}}
* [[Fair Cop]]
* [[Friend Onon the Force]]: He and Rui are actually related.
* {{spoiler|[[Go Out with a Smile]]}}
* {{spoiler|[[Killed Off for Real]]}}
