Whenever he mistakes someone for his bride, it almost seems like he enters a state of non-lucidity, as he will kidnap candidates who couldn't possibly be his bride, like animals or children, and then calm down and let them go later with genuine apologies.

* AdaptationalPersonalityChange: The Akira of the stage musicals is very similar to the one in the game, but thanks to the lack of narration, he becomes a much more active player in the story to justify his being there. He displays more curiosity and asks questions about the world, and reacts more strongly with realistic amounts of fear and shock to the fantastical situations he finds himself in. He also has no filter at times, especially with regards to the looks of his new companions; The musicals choose to translate his loving and borderline-erotic descriptions of their appearances in the game narration as him accidentally blurting out how beautiful, cool, or sexy he finds them, and immediately getting embarrassed and apologizing. He also displays self-esteem issues at times that the game version does not, and at one point has a [[HeroicBSOD breakdown]] because he believes he's failed to summon the other wizards and has put his new friends at risk of death as a result.
* AdaptationalBadass: As noted above, the Akira in the musicals takes a more active role in the story, including action scenes. The musical Akira helps spearhead peace negotiations between Drummond and the wizards, and helps to talk Faust down from killing human soldiers and making relations between human and wizards worse. The best example of this trope however, comes when Bradley decides to start shooting people after the attack on the manor. In the game, Akira is wearing a feather boa made of feathers, and one of the feathers happens to come off the boa while Akira is watching the scene unfold in silence, which then floats coincidentally into Bradley's face and makes him sneeze. Conversely, in the musicals, Bradley is stopped from shooting anyone because Akira jumps on him and wrestles with him for the gun, risking his own life in the process and only being saved because the wrestling results in the boa being shoved in Bradley's face.
* AmbiguouslyAbsentParent: In the musicals at least. Akira is only in his very early twenties, but it's made clear that his parents aren't in his life, and he considers his neighbour's cats the closest thing he has to family. Whether they're dead or Akira fell out with them for some reason is left up to the viewers.


Added DiffLines:

* KindHeartedCatLover: The opening of both continuities literally has them feeding their neighbour's cats, and it's made clear this is a regular thing. Emphasized a lot in the musicals, where Akira considers his neighbour's cats to be the closest thing he has to family back in Tokyo.

See IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy.]]


Added DiffLines:

* IAmNotPretty: Believes himself to be less attractive than he really is because one of the ways his family abused him while growing up was by mocking his appearance.
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: [[spoiler: In the 2nd Anniversary story, Chloe reveals to Akira that he loves Rustica, but knows it has no chance of being requited at the present time. He resolves to search for Rustica's bride and learn about his past before his amnesia so that Rustica can either reunite with his bride, or get closure and move on.]]
* PrecociousCrush: [[spoiler: Admits to having had one on Rustica when he was 13 in the 2nd Anniversary story. Now that he's an adult, it's still going strong, but he acknowledges that it will always be one-sided as long as Rustica thinks that his bride is out there somewhere.]]
* RescueRomance: [[spoiler: One-sidedly fell for Rustica when Rustica kidnapped him and continues to hold feelings for him years later.]]


Added DiffLines:

* AbductionIsLove: Any time he mistakes someone for his bride, he will turn them into a bird, lock them up in a bird cage, and try to spirit them away from wherever he found them.
* AmbiguousDisorder: There's something up with his mind, considering his bizarre behaviour and his amnesia. Whenever he mistakes someone for his bride, it almost seems like he enters a state of non-lucidity, as he will kidnap candidates who couldn't possibly be his bride, like animals or children, and then calm down and let them go later with genuine apologies.
* AnimalMotifs: Birds, and swallows more specifically. 'Rustica' refers to the scientific name for swallows, he has a lovely singing voice, he carries a birdcage with him wherever he goes, and he turns people into birds when under the impression that they're his bride. He also resembles a swallow in a way; his hair is the same shade of brown you might see on a swallow, and his white fur collar is a reference to the white markings that go around the necks of certain species.
* AnythingThatMoves: In a way. He will mistake anyone and anything for his bride, be they women, men, children, or animals. He never displays any sexual intent towards his kidnapping victims though, and he categorically rejected [[spoiler: Chloe's]] love confession while he was still underaged.


Added DiffLines:

* InnocentBlueEyes: Lovely blue eyes to signify his innocent and gullible personality, as well as indicate that underneath his eccentricities he is actually a very kind and pleasant person.


Added DiffLines:

* AmnesiacHero: Rustica can't remember anything before a certain point in his life, save for that he had a bride whom he loved very much. He has no idea what caused the amnesia, and has a single-minded focus on finding his bride despite not knowing anything about her or what she looks like, if she's even still alive, or if [[EveryoneIsBi she's even really a "she".]]

Added DiffLines:

* CantActPervertedTowardALoveInterest: He's quite the flirt and is implied to be promiscuous in his daily life, attempting to seduce several characters throughout the main story and side stories, most notably Akira. In contrast, he rarely flirts with [[spoiler: Murr, who is the only one that he's actually in love with.]] When he does show affection to him, it's in more understated and chaste ways.
* HotterAndSexier: In the stage musical continuity, the scene in which he shows Akira his Wizard Crest is expanded from a flirtatious unbuttoning of his shirt while in full view of the other characters, to getting Akira alone, unbuttoning his shirt, pushing Akira down on his bed, and running his hand down to Akira's crotch in an attempt to seduce him.
