For example, one that she wrote was about a girl contemplating the freedom she would have to give up to become an adult if read vertically; if read horizontally, it'd be about a father's worries now that his daughter was of marriage age.

Once Toyama rediscovers his writing spirit, the two can be seen walking away hand-in-hand.

* AlwaysIdenticalTwins: She looks very similar to her sister Hitomi, even though the pair are fraternal twins.
* ButForMeItWasTuesday: While her father's hung up on that one rainy day, Maria hardly remembered it until he mentioned it. Justified in that she was a kid at the time, so her memory of the time is probably a little fuzzy. Also, she says she had a lot of other things to focus on growing up so that one moment got shoved to the wayside.
* EasyAmnesia: A bonk to the head is all it takes. Particularly since the thug hitting her was only doing so to knock her out while she was drugged, so she probably wasn't even hit that hard. And before the end of the day, she's able to remember.
* LighterAndSofter: Maria's route is more focused on comedy compared to the others', lacking the threat of possible death at the start. This goes away once ShooOutTheClowns happens but it remains the more light-toned route by the time it ends.
* SiblingYinYang: Very outgoing and feisty compared to Hitomi's more quiet and reserved demeanor.

** Also with Achi when they have to work together during the final hour.
* SlidingScaleOfIdealismVsCynicism: Kano is firmly on the idealistic side, which comes into conflict with his job and initial interactions with Jack, which are all varying degrees of cynical. When he realizes that stopping the terrorists got priority over ensuring Maria's safety, he goes further out of his way to make things right. This is a bold move for him considering Japanese culture highly emphasizes deference to one's superiors and obeying orders.
* CrazyJealousGuy: Really downplayed here. Whenever Hitomi shows any degree of closeness to another guy, even if it's strictly professional, Achi's imagination gets away from him. He's particularly surly about Tanaka. Still, he never accuses her or ever brings up his feelings, nor does he ever impose on her.
* FireForgedFriends: With Kano over the final hour. It's notable since in some bad endings, Kano's hot temper and Achi refusal to back down initially make them at odds with each other.

Maria and Hitomi's father, husband to Ai and a director of Okoshi Pharmaceuticals: Osawa is a man of many titles but hardly pays attention to any of these things. His life's passion is his pursuit of virology, so much so that he was the one who invented an antiviral drug able to eradicate the Ua virus. However, Maria's kidnapping, Hitomi's unknown whereabouts and mysterious, threatening emails from 'A' force him to look up from his microscope for once.
----
* ClosetGeek: He's a fan of Aya Kamiki, a J-pop idol with a teen demographic. When Kajiwara stumbles upon it, Osawa becomes rather flustered.
* CripplingOverspecialization: When it comes to virology he's a genius. But he's been so wrapped up in his work that he doesn't know how to use a microwave, unclog a toilet or have a normal conversation with his family.
* DefrostingIceKing: Initially, Osawa's a distant person who gets frustrated easily. Over time he begins to accept his emotions as a natural human condition and becomes more honest and approachable.
* MyGreatestFailure: When his daughters were children, Maria ran away when it was pouring rain. Though obviously she wanted him to come for her as a demonstration of how he cared for her, he instead reasoned that she would return and went back to his study. He eventually comes to realize his negligence and strives to make amends with Maria once she's saved.
* NoSocialSkills: He expresses a lack of understanding toward human mannerisms, therefore avoiding human contact in favour of his work. According to one tip, the longest he had ever gone without speaking to anyone was around 15 days.
