* TheBadGuyWins: [[spoiler: Everything that happens goes according to plan, and he gets exactly what he wants [[KarmaHoudini without any karma]] biting back at him. Even his violent death is exactly what he wanted. The silver lining is that he will never be able to hurt anybody else, and he'll probably be considered as the maniacal sociopath he was rather than a source of inspiration.]]
Added DiffLines:
* SophisticatedAsHell: Both his journal entries and his speeches are a cringe-inducing mixture of grandiloquence and vulgarity.
Added DiffLines:
* WickedPretentious: He uses his readings as shallow ways to rationalize his own sadistic urges, and his ramblings (both written and spoken) show how much of an immature, petty and self-important prick he is.
Added DiffLines:
* UndignifiedDeath: John Doe puts a particular care in making their deaths (and resulting crime scenes) as degrading as possible. [[spoiler: Gluttony is force fed spaghetti until he collapses, then he's kicked repeatedly to make his stomach rupture. Greed is forced to strip off and mutilate himself. Sloth is slowly turned into a living corpse, to the point that his inevitable death will be a release. Lust is raped and mutilated in a squalid bedroom. Pride has her face slashed and forced to choose between suicide and living disfigured, not to mention she's found almost naked in her bed.]]
Added DiffLines:
* NothingIsScarier: Almost nothing about her is revealed, not even her name, and (thankfully) we never get to see her body. This doesn't make her death any less disturbing.
Added DiffLines:
* DyingAlone: Assuming that John Doe left the apartment while she was still alive, she's the only victim that died without anyone else present.
Added DiffLines:
* IronicName: Her surname is Shade while her sin is usually associated with Lucifer, whose name means "bringer of light".
* LightIsNotGood: She's found in a brightly lit apartment with white as its main color, which is appropriate for the sin associated with Lucifer.
* LightIsNotGood: She's found in a brightly lit apartment with white as its main color, which is appropriate for the sin associated with Lucifer.
Added DiffLines:
* WhiteAndRedAndEerieAllOver: She's found dead in an apartment with white walls and furniture, completely pristine if not for the red of her blood.

* FatBastard: Invoked by John Doe but ultimately averted. There is no indication that he was a bad person. The ComicBookAdaptation reveals that he was a quiet man with major self-esteem issues - one who genuinely wanted to turn his life around but didn't know how and his struggles and insecurity about his weight are treated sympathetically.

Formatting, also since the John Doe folder is already marked as containing spoilers it doesn't seem necessary to put spoiler tags on any of the items inside it
