* ExtremeDoormat: [[spoiler: Iggy's childhood wish to the Wishing Tree, "I wish my friends could be this happy all the time," turns into an unspoken vow as he keeps trying to manifest it in reality - only for it to become the root of his ToxicFriendInfluence.

Iggy finally overcomes this trope at the end of Arc 5, which carries over into the new timeline.]]

[[spoiler: At the end of Arc 1, he realizes that any long-term relationship with him is dangerous, and wishes to erase himself from existence.]]

[[spoiler:As Genzou admits to Orlam during his CooldownHug in Arc 5, he's almost exactly right.
