** In one JINE message, Ame makes the statement that she thinks alcohol is worse than drugs. While that would make for a good point to ''some'' extent, Ame also eagerly overdoses on her prescriptions for a quick high, and will gladly turn to much harder drugs if given the chance.

* TheReasonISuckSpeech: In the bad ending of “Ame's Happy Happy Dating Game”, she completely breaks down and goes on an unhinged rant about all the bad things she hates about herself (like using {{fanservice}} to draw in viewers or smack-talking and looking down on others), and overall thinking she is a big fraud who doesn’t deserve happiness.

* MessOfWoe: It's implied that Ame only cleans the quarters of her apartment that's visible on her webcam for the sake of establishing a public image and out of that spot, it's a trash-ridden mess that she's too lazy to clean up. It reflects her disturbed, depressed mental state.

* DependingOnTheWriter: In the manga adaptations (the anthologies or the ''RUN WITH MY SICK'' version), P-Chan is sometimes present in physical form, other times they don't and the panels outright show things like 2 computers or sex toys that suggest Ame is talking to herself. Assuming if they do have a physical form, how they look like also depends on the artist; there's one chapter in the official anthology that depicts them as a man with a cat's head, the ''Midnight Streaming Love'' anthology depicts them as a deformed-style cat, and the ''RUN WITH MY SICK'' version takes the form of a full-grown man with an established back story.

* AmbiguousSituation: It's unclear if this P-Chan is actually a real person or an illusion in Ame's head like the in-game version. He does have an official backstory before he's roped in Ame's home and became her producer, and he's shown physically purchasing streaming equipment and doing the work for Ame, but the circumstances behind his kidnapping is...very bizzare, at the least. On top of him being a grown man and a prestiged idol producer that looks at least twice the age of Ame who is somehow being convinced and roped to work for a dubious nobody like her, Ame is also very abusive and toxic to him and her behavior wouldn't be tolerated even on day 1, despite he obviously has the ability to leave on his own to call the cops in such a situation no matter what. One possible explanation, as indicated by his word, is that his judgement is clouded by desperation and hatred, willing to endure anything to restore his name and get back at those wronged him, but even then, he shouldn't be working with someone as unstable as Ame on first sight. All in all, it's made blurry if he is even a real person or still something Ame made up herself.

* AmbiguouslyBi: Ame-chan ''appears'' to have a preference for men; P-chan is often (but not necessarily) depicted as male in other non-game materials, and some endings have her hooking up with another male streamer instead of P-chan. However, in addition to P-chan having an AmbiguousGender canonically, a commenter on Netlore 4 can ask Ame if she's into [=MILFs=], and she won't deny it - [[YaoiFangirl even if she is mostly into BL]].

* GreenEyedMonster: In the ''RUN WITH MY SICK'' Manga, Ame got Noah to drop school and livestream like her, and the other girl gets 1.5 million viewers in an hour compared to [=KAngel's=] [=1.9M=] through contracting a large studio, and her response is to get incredibly depressed that she starts cutting her own wrists before she and P-chan vow and resolves to outperform her. This happens primarily because she reminded her of everything she doesn't have -- a loving family, wealth, and connections.

* SupportingProtagonist: You play as them, and they are the one who sets up Ame's streams, makes most of the decisions for her, and has the power of her fate in their hands. But the story is really about Ame herself and her journey to become the biggest streamer in the world, as well as her struggles with her mental issues. Notably, Ame is the mascot and the one on the covers and promotional material (along with her alter-ego [=KAngel=]) while P-chan is nowhere to be seen. However, this becomes subverted with TheReveal that P-chan is Ame's ''other'' [[ImaginaryFriend alter-ego, meaning Ame is the protagonist after all.]]
