* IHaveManyNames: In Episode 7 alone, s/he is referred to as [[spoiler:"Beatrice", "Shannon", "Kanon", "Clair" and "Lion"]]. The fact s/he uses multiple names − each symbolizing a different "role" − is actually the key to several puzzles. As implied by Ryukishi in Ougon Musou Kyoku, however, we were ultimately meant to call her [[spoiler:Sayo]].

* DistinguishingMark: [[spoiler:The manga reveals that like Kinzo, Yasu had polydactyl, but his/her extra toes were surgically removed and only a small scar remained. One day Yasu accidentally spilled hot soup s/he was bringing to Kinzo on his/her feet and when Kumasawa took off his/her shoes to treat the burns, Kinzo immediately noticed the scars, causing him to suspect that Yasu was his lost child.]]

* NoPeriodsPeriod: Played with. [[spoiler:The fact that Yasu ''hasn't'' had a period yet causes him/her to suspect that something is gravely wrong with his/her body, and it is a strong indication that Yasu may not be biologically female in the first place. Although one might also assume that the wound simply screwed up the menstrual cycle.]]

[[spoiler:Yasu is the true identity of Beatrice, Shannon and Kanon.]]

->''"It's obvious that a witch can do things like that. ...Becoming a witch, I'll bring forth all the things I wish. People, hearts, everything. And now, there's nothing I can't do. Because I am already a witch."''

* JapanesePronouns: "Watashi".

* AmbiguousGender: Yasu's gender was essentially left to the audience, since it's one of the many mysteries of the series. His/her manga depiction in Episode 7 keeps the ambiguity remarkably well, with even his/her casual outfits being [[http://www.hostingpics.net/viewer.php?id=1951641428.jpg a strange mix of male and female clothing.]] The Episode 8 manga however, very strongly implies that [[spoiler:Yasu was born as male but was RaisedAsTheOppositeGender]].

* {{Transsexual}}: A really complicated, implied case. [[spoiler:It's heavily implied that Yasu is biologically male, but was RaisedAsTheOppositeGender after their genitals were mutilated from falling off the cliff. Yasu grew up believing themselves to be female and identifying as such, until they began to notice something was wrong when their "breasts" didn't grow and they didn't have a period. After the truth about their body was revealed to them, Yasu didn't know anymore if they should identify as male or female, since their mutilated body means they can't never properly be a woman or a man, they are just "furniture". This gender identity conflict is reflected in Shannon and Kanon's interactions.]]

Stepford Smiler: An unique type, but closer to type C (unstable) [[spoiler:in the form of Shannon]].

* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: "Yasu" is only a nickname that was given to him/her by the other servants. We never learn Yasu's given name, and even when s/he learns his/her real name [[spoiler:(Lion Ushiromiya)]], Yasu is only called this once and never goes by that name again. [[spoiler:However, it's confirmed in the manga that his/her given name is Sayo.]]

* BiTheWay: [[spoiler:Assuming that s/he is Shannon, Kanon and Beatrice, Yasu is in love with Battler, George and Jessica.]] At one point in [=EP7=] Yasu even notes that he/she's willing to fall in love with anyone [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe who shows him/her kindness]].

[[spoiler:Shannon, Kanon and Beatrice are all her personas whom she act as. ]]

[[spoiler:Shannon, Kanon and Beatrice are all characters born from Yasu's wild imagination, each representing a part of Yasu's heart in the games.]]

* LoveMartyr: [[spoiler:Toward Battler. Even though he broke his promise to come back for Shannon and broke his/her heart when he forgot to write a letter for Shannon, Yasu ''still'' can't forget about him. No matter how much s/he loves George and Jessica, there's always a special place for Battler in Yasu's heart, even if it only brings him/her pain.]]

* TheFirstCutIsTheDeepest: [[spoiler:Besides the whole "furniture" complex, Battler is a big issue in Yasu's love life. Even though he broke his promise to come back for Shannon and forgot to write a letter for Shannon, Yasu ''still'' can't forget about him and no matter how much s/he loves George and Jessica, there's always a special place for Battler in Yasu's heart. His sudden return was essential for Yasu's final choice.]]
