* SpoiledSweet: She is said to be from a rich family, but she's not particularly spoiled or petty, since she befriended Anri during middle school, who was bullied often and had no other friends besides her at that point. Though it's worth pointing out that said friendship was based on Mika befriending Anri so she had someone to look better than in comparison.
* StalkerWithACrush: '''Very.''' She even had stalker tendencies ''before'' Seiji came into her life, and since then she has taken her stalking UpToEleven. She says she's snuck ''20'' hidden cameras in his room. Later, she reveals [[spoiler:she's been wire-tapping ''everyone remotely associated with Seiji ever'' in an effort to "protect" him]].

* EvilCounterpart: Can be seen as this to Shizuo.

However, Shizuo is a NiceGuy underneath all of his [[BerserkButton Berserk Buttons]] who wants nothing more than to control his anger, in contrast to Izumii who is a full-fledged {{Jerkass}} that HatesEveryoneEqually and doesn’t care about improving himself. And while Shizuo is [[BigBrotherInstinct fiercely protective]] of his brother Kasuka, Izumii is a severe BigBrotherBully whose abuse had a profound negative effect on Aoba’s psyche.

* SelectiveObliviousness: He's in love with a severed head named Celty, and doesn't comment on the headless body named Celty running around. He has been shown to be more aware of things than people expect, so it's likely he's in the same situation as Shinra, only caring about one half of Celty and ignoring the other half.

* AdvertisedExtra: Despite getting billed as a main character in the second opening, his appearance and role is pretty minimal.



* AscendedExtra: Subverted. At first, it looks like he's going to become this because he's included in the [[BaitAndSwitchCredits second opening credits]], but it turns out he only gets a minor role even then.


Added DiffLines:

* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: He bears a pretty good resemblance to Creator/ClintEastwood. The dub takes it even further by having his voice be a Clint Eastwood impression.
