* BloodbathVillainOrigin: The alternate Taichi from Tower of Friends, who is not the same Taichi that we know. But somehow just as crazy.
* ByronicHero: Taichi may be immensely screwed up, but he does try his best to act normal in order to fix everyone's problems.
* ChickMagnet: Eroge. Taichi can win everyone's love. [[spoiler:Even Hiroshi's, though there's no sex for that one. For Kiri, it's only in the true end, though the implied resulting sex happens offscreen.]]
** The alternate Taichi was apparently completely normal and thus had even more girls that liked him... until the day it turned out he was even more insane and killed everyone.
* CloudCuckoolander: During more lighthearted moments.
* DiagnosisFromDrBadass: Taichi displays uncanny medical knowledge at certain points during the game, quickly and effectively diagnosing injuries his friends have received. [[spoiler:Later it is implied that he learned these skills - among others - from [[{{Ninja}} Youko]], with whom he also committed mass murder during their childhood.]]
* DrivenToMadness: [[spoiler: Due to Taichi being gang raped and then being forced to kill his rapists. Which, oddly enough, isn't what made him snap. The final nail was Youko's horrified look after she made him do it.]]
* DrivesLikeCrazy: Taichi, but he's probably not even of age anyways, and he doesn't have a license.

!Kiri Sakura
Taichi's upperclassmen, she wears glasses and is a stickler for rules. Her brother is a friend of Taichi's, though they have an extremely strained relationship due to Misato's obsessive compulsive need for order and proper behavior, which is especially demanding for those she views as friends and family. [[spoiler:This led to her turning in her father for a crime he committed for her sake though she really did not want to do it, thus causing the rift with her brother.]] The first arc is dedicated to her.
A surly, detached girl who does not understand why she has to go to this school. Her issues involve a realistic depiction of a tsundere, traces of yandere/stalker behavior and extreme dependence on others. Appears to hate Taichi. [[spoiler:She once dated him when he tried to make normal human relationships with other, but he forgot that that everyone he knew is also insane, even those who appear normal. Deeming the relationship doomed to failure, he cut ties with her, leading to a suicide attempt in order to regain his attention.]] The second arc is dedicated to her.
!Kiri Sakura
Miki's friend, she possesses a strong hatred for Taichi. Her psychological issue appears to be over dependence and clinging to some figure, which is at the moment Miki. Through the story, she feels threatened by Taichi, which is understandable considering his irrational violence, though in the end she is not much better herself. She seems to understand Taichi the best of the main cast with the possible exception of Youko. [[spoiler:She hates Taichi because she thinks he killed her brother, but in fact it was a suicide.]] The third arc is dedicated to her.
!Miki Yamanobe
The TokenLoli, she is one of the few able to keep up with Taichi and even match his sexual harassment. One of Taichi's closest friends, they have a policy of mutual harassment and the innuendo slung between the two is ever present when the two converse. [[spoiler:She appears to be a case of clinical sociopathy, though is generally not dangerous. Thus, the feelings of others never mattered to her.]] The fourth arc is dedicated to her.
