* TooDumbToLive: Sanae holds the crown for being the dumbest victim in the entire franchise. She tells Takuro's grieving mother everything about the Hell Correspondence, down to instructions and her son's fate, just to spite her to the bone; unsurprisingly, not long later, Masako invokes her own contract against Sanae. What keeps this from being ATragedyOfImpulsiveness is that when confronted by Ai, Sanae is absolutely baffled and surprised by the turn of events.
