* AbusiveParents: He's [[EvilUncle Satoko's uncle]] but ends up as her direct guardian in some arcs, making him a parental figure. Not only does he treat Satoko like crap and hit her but one of the TIPS flat out states if she were a few years older he would have no qualms about abusing her sexually. It doesn't end well for him in any of the arcs.

Added DiffLines:

* MoreHateableMinorVillain: Both she and Teppei are secondary antagonists and [[AssholeVictim Asshole Victims]] who don't amount to much in the grand scheme of things, but they are both more viscerally loathsome and unlikeable, and far less sympathetic, than the actual BigBad.

Added DiffLines:

* MoreHateableMinorVillain: While far from the BigBad and in fact not even remotely involved in the plot of Oyashiro's curse, Teppei still manages to be among ''the'' most reprehensible figures in the story for his disgusting actions and morally degenerate character.

Added DiffLines:

* BookDumb: Teppei is not a very well-educated man. As the VN puts it when he's visited by Ms. Chie asking about why Satoko stayed home from school that day, "Teppei hated schools, and teachers."

* ArcVillain: Rather than being simply an AssholeVictim to kick off the main plots like in ''Tatarigoroshi-hen'' and ''Tsumihoroboshi-hen'', Teppei, along with the stigmatization of his family in Hinamizawa, is the main obstacle to overcome for a large chunk of "Minagoroshi-hen", as Rika and her friends have to figure out how they can save Satoko from his abuse ''without'' resorting to murdering him.

* HairTriggerTemper: Rage and violence are second nature to Teppei, as he himself is even fully aware of. In "Minagoroshi-hen", calls from Child Welfare Services about how he's taking care of Satoko force him to restrain himself from beating Satoko, and he hates that he has to do so. However, one slip-up of hitting her in a rage once again is all it takes for him to slide right back into it, assaulting her even more and even harder when her crying infuriates him.

* TheIrredeemableException: Aside from Nomura (who we never learn the real name and identity of), Teppei and Rina are the only characters in the story to be depicted as thoroughly evil people without any redeemable qualities to them, and are offered no chances to reform and atone for their sins in any of the loops whether they die or not. [[spoiler: This is played with for Teppei in ''[[Anime/HigurashiWhenTheyCryGou Gou/Sotsu]]'' where even in loops where he does get more humanized and becomes TheAtoner, [[HeelFaceDoorSlam he's unable]] to make good on fully changing his life and making better choices and better relationships with people he'd hurt like Satoko, and the trope is straight up averted only in the loop of "Tatariakashi-hen" and in the final miracle fragment seen at the end of the series.]]
