* AdoptionConflict: Miri was abandoned by her mother and is saved by the assassins Kazuki and Rei after they've killed her father in a mission. The two take her in and care for her out of guilt. The trio is engrossed in their happy pretend family until one day Miri's mother visits the duo and demands that they give her her daughter back, especially since she's aware of their dangerous line of work and that she wants to be a better parent to Miri. Kazuki refuses at first, but they reluctantly leave Miri to her by lying to Miri that it's just for a day, but when the Suwa organization Rei works for comes to murder Miri and her mother, the sociopathic Ogino manages to kill Miri's mother before Kazuki arrives and saves Miri. In the end, Kazuki and Rei take Miri back to raise her, and she grows up with the two from this point onwards.

* PrettyLittleHeadshots: Basically Rei's signature style due to how often he invokes this. Headshot kills in the show always seem to just punch neat little holes in the forehead of the victim followed by a small spurt of blood and not much else.
