* FanDisservice: Cape aside, Gallows' Gore Suit is ''the'' most {{Stripperiffic}} of the bunch, and as stated below, she's arguably the most easy-going of the group. This is only on the surface, though, as if you're close enough to get a nice view of her, either you or someone dear to you has probably gotten caught by her portable gallows and is being ''strangled to death''.

* FanDisservice: The way she floats and leans back inside her giant iron maiden blatantly exposes her panties to the player. And any would be victim that's seconds away from being viciously impaled on her spikes so she can drink their blood.

Added DiffLines:

** In ''Mary Skelter 2'' and the first game's remake, certain areas of the Jail clearly line up at the edges of each map, for example the 2 version of the Dorm has areas 1-4 connected in a counterclockwise rotation, however the shortcuts between each area are often laid out in a way that resembles a stairwell between floors which implies that each area is connected both horizontally and vertically at the same time.

* KickTheDog: Unsurprisingly for a villain, he's bound to have these, but one of his most notable is when he's confronted by Clara's party. He [[WouldYouLikeToHearHowTheyDied sadistically gloats to Pyre over how he turned her sisters in Massacre Pink into a Nightmare, going over every detail as excruciatingly as possible]], before yelling out how much he hates her. There was no reason for him to do this beyond making Pyre cry, and it only serves to enrage all of Pyre's friends.

* AintTooProudToBeg: After Massacre Pink's master grows tired of their failures and decides to fuse them into a Nightmare, Gallows can only cry and plead futiley to be spared. The master [[WouldYouLikeToHearHowTheyDied even gloats about this just to hurt Pyre]], who still cared for Massacre Pink even after everything they've done to her.

* CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot: Gato could have undone almost all of the damage that was done by the Jails' arrival a long time ago by simply making proper use of the Witchcraft fragment '''by just telling it to go away''', rather than use it as a shield against the Marchen, as Jack essentially did with his wish in the true ending, but his hatred for them blinded him to this possibility and drove him to commit his omnicidal rampage instead.



* AlasPoorVillain: Despite being a mass murderer who is fanatically devoted to her master, her death ends up being tragic once it's revealed that said master is [[spoiler:her older brother and she's been trying to earn his approval and affection. Hearing her beg Gato to say their family before Gato cruelly rejects and stabs her to death is downright heartwrenching. Even Jack's team (with the exception of Mary) are horrified by this, with Jack himself becoming enraged and disgusted with Gato's act of heartless cruelty.]]

* BadGuysDoTheDirtyWork: She manages to kill off Snark during her rampage at the start of the game, though nobody discovers this as he was still disguised when he died.



* KickTheSonOfABitch: There will likely be no tears shed over the Mysterious Nightmare offing Snark, the BigBad of the game's setting, in her rampage.



* InconsistentSpelling: Yuuto Gatou in the Japanese version, Yuto Gato in the English version. They also incorrectly list his name as [[GenderBlenderName Yuko]] on the official English website.

* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: He's this to Snark even more so than the Mysterious Nightmare was in ''Mary Skelter 2'', and is even this ''to'' the Mysterious Nightmare in certain ways.

** While Snark [[MadScientist certainly acted shady as Professor Tohjima]] to the point of being suspicious, he was able to cover his tracks very well to the point that the Blood Team needed to gather multiple pieces of specific evidence, and even then he's able to come up with {{Conveniently Unverifiable Cover Stor|y}}ies whenever Jack brings up evidence, with his only flaw coming from [[ComplexityAddiction making up unnecessary stories]] that allowed the Blood Team to find a contradiction in his testimony. The Mysterious Nightmare, on the other hand, was too busy going on a rampage to really care about discretion, and the [[TomatoInTheMirror Alice Mimic was genuinely unaware that she's a copy of the original Alice]]. Gato does put on a convincing act as a GentlemanAndAScholar, but doesn't do a good job of covering his tracks as the Master of Massacre Pink, to the point that Jack has a much easier time exposing him than he did to Snark. Notably, while the first game gives the player options on identifying the which member of the Dawn is the traitor and the second game gives the player options on identifying which Blood Maiden is the Mimic, Jack just straight up says Gato is the Master, implying that it was obvious even InUniverse that Gato is the villain.

* {{Determinator}}: A very dark example. Gato sees the world as beyond salvation, so he decides to just end the world without even trying to find the right solution to ending the Jails. He's so determined to see the world's destruction through that he tries to find a way to end the time loop interfering with his plans even though he could use those time loops to find the solution to save humanity.



* MrExposition: Gato's initial role is to fill in Mary's group on the state of the world on the surface, and then he promptly fades off into the background even more so than other non party members.

* VilerNewVillain: As explained under ContrastingSequelAntagonist, Snark was a WellIntentionedExtremist who wanted to recreate his homeworld, while the Mysterious Nightmare is a TragicMonster who transformed and went on a rampage after apparently losing the one she loved. Both of them have someone they still cared about deeply that played a role in their motives[[note]]Snark has his wife, and finding her becomes the primary motivation of Snark's reincarnation, Toh. The Mysterious Nightmare still loved Jack enough to actually avoid harming him.[[/note]]. Gato, on the other hand, is an OmnicidalManiac who wants to destroy everything just because he hates non-human beings beings that much, has none of the sympathetic or redeeming qualities of the previous antagonists, is indiscriminate in the lives he ruins, and has absolutely no one he cares about (he rejects the only remaining family he still had, Guillotine, just because she's not fully human, making his FreudianExcuse fall flat).

* FauxAffablyEvil: Arguably the most cheerful and easy going of the Massacre Pink girls, however underneath it, she's still a cold blooded killer who enjoys committing murder and causing suffering.

* CrazyPrepared: Snark had the foresight to come up with [[ConvenientlyUnverifiableCoverStory cover stories for almost any evidence]] someone might use to expose him, which is why Jack and the Blood Team had a hard time proving their suspicions of him. His only flaw was coming up with unnecessary stories that allowed the Blood Team to find a contradiction in his defense.

* SpitefulSuicide: After finally defeated by the Blood Team, Gato chooses to jump to his death after seeing the moon about to fall to the Earth, satisfied that his plan to destroy the world is about to happen and the Blood Team's efforts were apparently AllForNothing. He spends his last moments mocking Jack's team about their failure and continues to degrade them as "maggots".
