Mentor Ship is now YMMV; objective examples go in Teacher Student Romance


In the town of Uenbara, [[IdiotHero Hana]] dreams of a life like an RPG. It becomes true when she meets [[MentorShip Mima]] and [[FantasticFoxes Foxie]], a spirit hunter and a familiar. Takagahara is facing a wave of spirit attacks, and they're the only ones present to stop it except [[DarkMagicalGirl Eina]], a rival to Mima who routinely attacks Foxie. Foxie offers Hana and Rin to make a wish at the Fountain of Life, using its power to combat spirits with Mima. All starts up well, but Eina's opposition of Foxie seems to stem from more than Foxie just being a [[HunterOfTheirOwnKind spirit]]. When Rin heeds Eina's warnings, the seeds of doubt are planted...

All starts up well, but Eina's opposition of Foxie seems to stem from more than Foxie just being a [[HunterOfTheirOwnKind spirit]]. When Rin heeds Eina's warnings, the seeds of doubt are planted...
!This work features examples of:
* ActionGirl: The girls hunt spirits.
** ActionGirlfriend: A key concept for the girls is getting (and becoming) one.
* AndThenJohnWasAZombie: [[spoiler:Subverted: When girls get possessed by spirits, Rin suspects that this would happen to her. This didn't happen because of the Fountain, but because of Foxie, who mindgamed the girls into thinking her presence was necessary, and implanted the spirits while the Fountain was working its magic.]]
* AntagonistTitle: Some of the chapters with the girls as bosses. Subverted with the spirits, [[spoiler:who use the girls' names with a question mark at the end in chapters where they're bosses alone.]]
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Rin suspects this as soon as early Part 2, thinking this is the reason Mima got sloppy at the end of Part 1. [[spoiler:Eventually shown to be wrong when it's revealed that things are going wrong for the girls ''because Foxie is with them at the time they make their wish to the Fountain'' and she implants spirits into them ''during the small period of confusion during which their wish is being granted''. It is later proven when Foxie implants spirits without needing the Fountain and later by Rin wishing without Foxie around.]]
* BiggerIsBetter: [[spoiler:First, the Giant Foxie, counting that its warp zone ate the city Yuriko is from. Itself is nearly [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever 50 feet tall]]. The "Giant Shadow of Despair" one-ups it, being larger than an entire planet.]]
* BreakTheCutie: Everyone has their share, but they all come back.
* ColorCodedCharacters: Mostly played straight, but there are a few aversions: such as green-themed Chiharu not using [[WindIsGreen wind]].
* CuteMonsterGirl: All the characters. [[spoiler:Even the spirits were cute monster girls while living, but years of being unable to see has left them objectively deformed. They progressively come back to being this.]]
* DarkestHour: Part 4 begins with Yuriko running away from her city after it was swallowed by a giant warp zone and meeting up with Rin, no less scarred from losing new friends Momo and Mima and childhood friend Hana.
* EldritchLocation: The "warp zone", AnotherDimension where you meet almost all enemies. [[spoiler:It's generated by the Giant Foxie.]]
* ImprobablyFemaleCast: All characters are female, and only the GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere looks somewhat genderless [[spoiler:(but considering it was a part of Kyubi, it's female)]].
** CastFullOfGay: Due to the LevelUpAtIntimacyFive mechanic and fully-female playable cast.
* GreyAndGrayMorality: Everyone is a gray, being an AntiHero of some sort. They grow out their flaws in the story, or at least said flaws become way less toxic.
** Hana is a drug-addict and a KnightTemplar who hears but doesn't listen to others. Her lack of forgiveness extends to herself and makes her self-destructive very quickly upon meeting competition.
** Rin is too self-indulgent and emotionally dependent on Hana to take her out of her [[HeroicSelfDeprecation self]]-[[ItsAllMyFault blaming]] moments. And for all she [[{{Wangst}} blames herself]], she actually CantTakeCriticism.
** Chiharu is a RichBitch, who has no idea when the brutal in her BrutalHonesty is too much for others to handle. She's also very prone to looking down on people and relies too much on first impressions ([[MinorFlawMajorBreakup Example: the Daisy fight]]), and can end up denouncing the idea of friendship.
** Mima has lost all idea of the value of life, and is quite possessive of Hana and Rin, not caring for them because of their personalities, but only to stave off loneliness.
** Eina put herself in a villainous spot because she's so objective-driven that [[NoSocialSkills her social skills are null]] and [[ObliviouslyEvil she doesn't care how many people she hurts]]. She only is bummered by beating Rin around, and she still does it [[TheUnfettered regardless of her own qualms with it]]. When things turn out to bite her, she becomes extremely self-sacrificial and gets LoveMartyr tendencies.
** Momo has no trust in people and goes on AxCrazy sprees to stave off boredom and avoid thinking of her life, [[PutThemAllOutOfMyMisery as it pains her]].
** Yuriko is a bad case of self-centered morality and a non-self-acknowledged DirtyCoward, plus a bit of TheEeyore. She's also a bit of a ControlFreak, as she's used to having innate authority.
** [[spoiler:The spirits are not fully evil, and even Foxie exists only to resurrect them, though her plan puts her in the villain's position (when her plan has succeeded though, she completely flips and decides to eat everything)]].
** [[spoiler:The only exceptions are Kyubi (even though she only comes into existence after Rin solved her own issue) and the Giant Shadow of Despair.]]
* TheHeartless: Most enemies. [[spoiler:They're all Foxie familiars.]]
* HurtingHero: Every one of them gets a taste of this.
* ItSucksToBeTheChosenOne: [[spoiler:When you're chosen by Foxie at least.]]
* LittleMissBadass: Subverted: While they look younger, the girls are 16 to 19 years old. [[spoiler:The spirits can count, considering the age at which they died (13 to 16 years old). Dougal and Foxie as well count.]]
* LoveTriangle: Hana and Chiharu are both attracted to Mima.
** TriangRelations: The above mentioned LoveTriangle isn't the only one. Yuriko crushes on Rin, but Rin has a crush on Eina.
*** GameplayAndStoryIntegration: All the aforementioned crushes start with romance scores high enough to actually start a romance, except the other part of the loving relationship has to be [[LevelGrinding grinded]] for.
* LovelyAngels: [[LevelUpAtIntimacyFive Pair any two girls]] together.
* MagicalGirl: Still an element here even though the girls' powers come from their CuteMonsterGirl-ness and the Fountain of Life rather than TransformationTrinkets.
* MakeAWish: The Fountain of Life grants wishes. A tradition is to toss a coin into it.
* MentorShip: Mima mentors Hana in fighting, making Hana's crush on her this.
* MonsterTown: CuteMonsterGirl Town, precisely. Most of the girls don't even know they actually are monster girls, though, showing scarce species-related traits until they embrace it.
* MultipleEndings: While the GoldenEnding is canon, branch from it in any way and you can get a few of these, and that's not counting NonStandardGameOver scenarios. In order:
** Part 1:
*** You need to talk with Mima for her to join you during ''Eina''. Otherwise, Hana and Rin just "swear off the doritos" and the game goes straight to ''Chiharu'', where Hana is stuck alone in the Daisy boss battle. Cue UnwinnableBossFight and the bad ending that is associated with it.
*** Mima can kill Eina during either ''Eina'' or ''Thanks Fit''. This results in Hana and Rin suffering the same fate as Mima at the end of ''Fuel Crate'', leading to a Bad Ending directly at the end of Part 1.
** Part 2:
*** Rin can attack Eina during ''Wish'' and ''Carve Notions''. This will result in Eina fighting back and potentially killing her. Ending Part 2 with Rin dead causes Eina to not interfere in ''Water Under the Bridge'', and the battle ends with Hana jumping off the bridge to her death.
*** During those chapters, Eina can also be killed. While ''Carve Notions'' leads to an immediate Bad Ending, doing it in ''Wish'' leads to gameplay continuing as normal except that ''Carve Notions'' will be skipped, ''Get out of my Head!'' only features Momo as an enemy instead of both her and Eina, you don't have her for ''Hana'', and the ending to ''Water Under the Bridge'' becomes the same as the above sequence.
*** During ''Get out of my Head!'', Rin can attack Momo. If she does, Momo will counter-attack and possibly kill her, leading to the usual Rin-less Part 2 ending.
** Part 3:
*** It's possible to have Hana kill Chiharu during the chapter of the same name. Doing so leads to Hana stabbing herself before ''Hana?'' instead of simply ordering Florence to take over. Even after Florence is defeated, Hana dies and Florence still controls her dead body.
*** In ''Near Finality'', if Rin attacks Eina, Eina will again strike back and possibly kill her, resulting in the same scenario as killing Chiharu.
*** It's possible to deploy anyone (though everyone but Hana is mutually exclusive with Momo) in ''Paint Rain''. If Eina is deployed, she will kill Hana at the end of the chapter. Any number of the others leads to them being appalled at what Hana has done and she will stab herself again before ''Hana?'', which immediately follows.
** Part 4:
*** It's possible to let Yuriko escape alone in ''The Remnant''. Doing so makes her unplayable for the rest of the story; she will only appear again in ''The Time Is Here'', where Eina kills her, becoming a boss who must be killed. This leads to a bad ending as Foxie has Flamme possess Yuriko's dead body, and Foxie and her overpower and kill the rest.
*** ''The Time Is Here'' features an unscripted battle segment. If Yuriko dies, it's a standard game over. If Eina doesn't survive combat, Rin will chastise Yuriko for it, and Yuriko will wish, creating a time loop.
*** In ''Redemption'', Kyubi can kill Foxie without talking. This leads to her familiar being unavailable, and she has to SuicideAttack to kill the Shadow of Despair in ''The End''.
*** ''The End'' gives a multiple-branch option of its own.
*** If Kyubi doesn't have a romance, she chooses to fuse back with the Shadow of Despair when it communicates telepathically with her, becoming the inert fountain again, leaving her familiar distraught.
*** If Kyubi doesn't have a romance option but all the other girls alive do, she becomes jealous and kills them all when the Shadow of Despair does its mind trick on her.
*** If Kyubi dies to the Shadow during the chapter, it destroys the world even if you defeat it, as it comes back quickly.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: [[spoiler:Foxie's name hints at her trickster nature. Kyubi counts, but fear only if you're a villain.]]
* NoOntologicalInertia: It's a rule of magic in this universe. Magic isn't maintained when you're unconscious. Maintaining magic comes at the cost of some strain on your attention, with potential PowerStrainBlackout.
* PoorCommunicationKills: A regular problem.
* ThePowerOfLove / RelationshipValues: A centerpiece of this game.
* SanitySlippage: Everyone but Chiharu is somewhere on the slope.
* SchoolgirlLesbians: The starting trio are all schoolgirls, with only Mima added in. Eina doesn't go to school [[StalkerWithACrush (except to stalk Rin)]], Momo and Yuriko come in from another city with Momo never having been in school and Yuriko not transferring in, just hanging around [[{{Foreshadowing}} to stalk Rin]].
* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: The main girls, Hana and Rin. Counts as [[PinkGirlBlueBoy Pink Girly Girl (Rin) And Blue Tomboy (Hana)]]. Alternatively, Mima and Momo.
** BifauxnenAndLadette: The contrast between Hana and Momo's personalities.
** LightFeminineAndDarkFeminine: Rin and Mima, though the friendship is formed in the early parts.
* TrueCompanions: Usually they are, but Chiharu can toss the trope out the window and value her own advancement instead, ditching her friends to get rich. [[spoiler:She's the only one who can become unplayable without leading to a BadEnding path.]]
* WakeUpGoToSchoolSaveTheWorld: The school times are useful for expanding romances, but plot-wise useless.
* WorldOfActionGirls
* YoungerThanTheyLook: All the girls are mild examples. [[spoiler:The spirits are even more so though, considering most lived only for around 14 years barring the time they spent as spirits.]]
!Characters
[[folder:Hana Asahigawa]]
--> The point-of-view character. She's a brash but emotional {{Tomboy}}.
* AssholeVictim: She gets two in Part 3, with the ''Pain Train'' chapter existing only for her to kill normals. [[spoiler:This only symbolizes that she snapped and happens shortly before she gives in to Florence.]]
* BatterUp: Before she acquires a real sword. Her first weapon is a baseball bat which also doubles as a joke weapon.
* BoobsOfSteel: While not the bustiest girl in the cast (that would be Mima), she's second to her and far more physical.
* BoyishShortHair
* ClassClown: She sleeps in class, and mostly acts as a distraction to Rin. She's such a loose cannon that her Intelligence stat is the lowest in the game, and therefore her spells aren't really good.
* CombatSadomasochist: Hana is something of a masochist. [[spoiler:With Florence at her side, she even takes less physical damage later on because she can focus on enjoying the physical pain]]. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] as she's been hurt physically a lot and is pretty resistant to pain, [[spoiler:and even more later on considering that being a slime makes her way less sensitive to physical damage and she's unable to even get cut]].
* ComplainingAboutRescuesTheyDontLike: To Eina at the ending to Part 1.
* DecoyProtagonist: Presented as the main character, but she doesn't appear early in Part 4 [[spoiler:because of her supposed death in Part 3]], and gets less important decisions than the rest especially towards the end.
* ElementalRockPaperScissors: [[spoiler:When Florence unveils her more of her slime body, she uses it to NoSell fire attacks.]]
* FighterMageThief: Of the original trio, she's the fighter. She's even the tankiest character in the game, especially in the later chapters where she gets off on taking physical damage and her defense gradually increases.
* FingerTwitchingRevival: [[spoiler:Just before her comeback in Part 4, a shot of her hand and her fingers twitching is shown.]]
* [[spoiler:HeelFaceReturn: In Part 4, after her willing forfeit to Florence, she's back to rescue Rin. And she TookALevelInBadass as she demonstrates by having Florence as an assist instead of an enemy, and taking on Belle, Peach and Pearl simultaneously, with the added bonus of taking Belle out before only fainting from exhaustion.]]
* {{Idiot Hero}}ine: She's dumb and clearly lacking in education.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Hana is very blunt and often makes others mad at her, though she usually apologizes for it. [[spoiler:Later on, she bottles the apologies in, starting her self-destruction.]]
* KnightTemplar: She doesn't like not getting her way. Hints happen as early as ''Get out of my Head!'', near the end of Part 2, in which her goal is to escape Eina and Momo, who are trying to get a helpful conversation going. In the next chapter, ''Hana'', '''she's the chapter boss'''. Part 3 later gives us ''Paint Rain'', in which she murders two normals. Capped off in the beginning of the next chapter, ''Hana?'', where she voluntarily gives in to Florence, asking the she kill Momo.
* MundaneUtility: She finds it in mirrors, as the reason the spirits look like EldritchAbomination is that they don't realize their look doesn't go well with human eyes.
* MushroomSamba: Momo finds her stoned during ''Hana?''. Almost her last line refers to how she's been doing drug trips for longer than that already.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: [[spoiler:When she wakes up in Part 4 and she thinks she actually killed Momo. She feels even worse when she's seeing her possessed by Peach '''and''' Rin possessed by Pearl, but focuses enough for that not to be seen and goes solo against Belle, Peach and Pearl. For a while, she doesn't even listen to Florence saying she didn't kill Momo right to her face.]]
* NeverFoundTheBody: Averted. [[spoiler:After her would-be death in ''Hana?'', Momo '''ripped her body from Florence''', to avoid her "Mima's cruel fate". Sadly for Rin, Peach found the body first.]]
* PrimaryColorChampion: Always dressed in blue and white, with the occasional gold.
* TankTopTomboy
* ThisIsForEmphasisBitch: More prone to this later on, hers being callous stabs at the enemies in contrast to Mima's playful use of the trope.
* TooKinkyToTorture: However, she takes offense with psychic torture, as is the case in early Part 3, which even devolves in a fight in the ''Draw in my Head'' chapter.
* TragicHero: Has one big mark of this trope: namely her lack of forgiveness for anything "not good". She also has a dream of justice, but as time goes by she finds it increasingly difficult to grasp it. [[spoiler:Her inability to forgive herself for being unable to forgive others also drives her to stop living and let Florence take over. She does come back, though, thanks to a well-placed WhatTheHellHero from Florence.]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Rin Manmaru]]
--> Hana's friend, and a cute NiceGirl altogether who works hard to please everyone around her.
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: A variation: she crushes on Eina, who is universally disliked.
* ChickMagnet: With the CastFullOfGay, this was easy to predict, but she is easier and more adaptable in her romance paths. Her RelationshipValues growth all have a x1.5 multiplier to their increase (on par with '''Kyubi'''), with the assorted x0.5 multiplier applied to RelationshipValues loss.
* CombatMedic: Grows into this when she gains a few offensive spells.
* CovertPervert
* FighterMageThief: Of the original trio, she's the mage. She is relatively weak at it, but magic is her better attack method.
* HealerSignsOnEarly: She's there at the beginning of the game with a healing method handy in her Tend command. While other healing methods exist within the game, Rin remains the primary healer through and through.
* HumbleHero: On the surface. She can actually be a closet prima-donna.
* IntimateHealing: A [[LevelUpAtIntimacyFive Romance-exclusive]] variation of her Tend command (aka physical healing) which is the best healing in the game as it cleanses all StandardStatusEffects and puts the character back to full life.
* LoveFreak: During her ditzy moments.
* LoveYouAndEverybody
* MartialPacifist: She hates fighting, but she will do it.
* NiceGirl: Starts out pretty entitled, but ends up being the genuine article.
* NoSell: In the later chapters, as her wings developed, she flies and ignores ground-elemental spells.
* PinkIsFeminine
* ThePowerOfLove: A proud believer. She's taken as TheDitz for it.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Though altruistic, she's vehement in saying that she's useful even though what she does is healing and she doesn't help much in clearing the line of enemies.
* TookALevelInBadass: Starts as a weak healer entitled to be protected, but ends up as a stronger-minded nice girl.
* TrademarkFavouriteFood: She gets high off of chocolate.
* WideEyedIdealist: Starts out on the extreme "I'll just heal you and everything's gonna be A-OK!" side. After overcoming the shock that is the end of Part 1, she regains a more reasonable outlook that still fits the trope.
* WingedHumanoid: She has little white feathers on her arms naturally, but these grow into pink fluffy wings [[spoiler:after her possession by Pearl]].
* WingsDoNothing: Averts it by being immune to ground attacks with the wings.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Chiharu Kanbashi]]
--> Hana and Rin's rich friend, who is a bit distanced from the other two by her family obligations.
* AlphaBitch
* ConvenientlyAnOrphan: She's the only aversion in a world in which kids raise themselves, being tied to her family. Her family only sees her as a tool to expand their domain.
* CriticalHitClass
* DiscOneNuke: The other characters all get an EleventhHourSuperpower. She, on the other side, gets her empowered boost, a HealingFactor, when you acquire her early in Part 2. Having such a boost makes her the single best character you can have handy at the moment, provided you level her up to par.
* FighterMageThief: Of the original trio, she's the thief. However, they only are together during an ImagineSpot of Hana's, and she doesn't really join the party until Part 2 (despite the levels from Hana's daydream still counting as actual levels for her).
* FragileSpeedster
* HeelFaceTurn: She's absent through Part 1, appearing only in ''Chiharu?'', where she's possessed by Daisy before being playable for good in ''Carve Notions''. The part where Chiharu counts as a heel for that part, though, is that a branching path of ''Chiharu?'' leads to her breaking friendships with Hana and being overall meaner, becoming a boss that has to be defeated and killed in the chapter named after her in Part 3.
* LethalJokeCharacter: Chiharu, despite being overleveled for the very first chapter in the game (explained as a Hana daydream where she views her as a HypercompetentSidekick), comes in at the same level you let her back then, except ''Carve Notions'' is the ninth chapter. In spite of lackluster stats, she has a host of attributes that should let her keep up, such as an innate HealingFactor, bonus damage added to her attacks, and most important of all Daisy, while no other character has access to an AssistCharacter until Part 4.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Especially early on, where she doesn't even realize she got possessed. She subverts it later on when she gets to cooperate with Daisy, adapting so quickly she knows more about the spirits than the others, but due to the crumpling of all relationships around her, she can't intervene and help.
* MutuallyExclusivePartyMembers / EasyModeMockery: If you get Eina's help during ''Chiharu?'', Chiharu will see the DysfunctionJunction and refuse to keep her friendship with Hana, plus getting closed to Eina too, thus preventing her from being used in the same party as any of the two (let alone romance them). This cripples the potential party choices, especially the endgame moments where Eina is mandatory. And even otherwise you need to avert CantDropTheHero while Hana is a major component of Part 3.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Mima Himemori]]
--> Hana and Rin's senior by one year, she's a new friend, and acts as an older sister to the two.
* AbominationAccusationAttack: After a drink with Rin and Hana, she smells drugs and accuses Rin who vehemently denies.
** TheCuckoolanderWasRight: There was someone on drugs; it was just Hana, not Rin.
* TheAce: Leveled for Part 4 and is in your party from ''Eina'' (your second battle) onward. She even recognizes her status as this early on.
* TheAlcoholic: She loves drinking.
* BloodKnight: Her fascination with fighting is unhealthy at best.
* BreastExpansion: By magic.
* CantCatchUp: In Part 4, she can be one of the weaker units due to her return time.
* CoolBigSis: Acts the part to Hana and Rin.
* CoolHorse: [[spoiler:In Part 4, she gains unicorn legs.]]
* CrutchCharacter: Literally. She's available early on and starts almost leveled up for Part 4, but then gets victim of the MonsterOfTheWeek that has Belle take over her.
* DiscOneNuke: She can easily destroy any enemy who faces her in Part 1.
* DrivesLikeCrazy: And without license.
* LaserGuidedKarma: Just after she finally opens to romance options, there's a boss fight. When you win, she gets cocky enough to [[{{Foreshadowing}} hint at Momo's abilities]] with a powerful attack that leaves her with one HP. CounterAttack ensues and this conveniently puts Mima out of commission for effectively half the story.
* TheMentor: She acts as this, despite just being a senior who is two years older than Hana and Rin.
* NoSocialSkills: Unlike Eina, she's more awkward than outright asocial. Her attempts to be funny often end in her proving herself to be a PungeonMaster.
* ProtagonistTitle: The chapter ''Fuel Crate'', that ends Part 1 in her death, is a metaphorical designation for her.
* ATasteOfPower: Available early on, but only so she can share LevelGrinding with Hana and Rin. After that, she isn't playable until ''Lumen'', after missing 17 chapters.
* ThisIsForEmphasisBitch: Hers are more playful than Hana's.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Foxie]]
--> Mima's MentorMascot. Or something.
!!!Tropes associated with Foxie:
* EvilAllAlong: She is revealed to be evil when she starts torturing Hana mentally to shut her up in ''Drawn in my Head'', the very beginning of Part 3; and then there's the fact that the giant warp zone was created by her.
* FantasticFoxes
* TheHeavy: She has a major influence on the plot, being responsible for implanting the spirits into the girls.
* InNameOnly: The part of Foxie that Kyubi rips out of her to make her own familiar, despite being the one that identifies with the name, is almost nothing like the one seen so far, being mischievous at her worst. And she's more human-looking than any form of Foxie has ever been.
* LivingWithTheVillain: The heroines have been doing this with her.
* OurSpiritsAreDifferent: She's even different from the other spirits that the girls fight; the worst offender of the bunch, in fact, as she was created by the other spirits in the aim to bring them back, which makes her an '''artificial spirit'''.
* RecurringBoss: Starts her stint in ''Drawn in my Head'' as a DuelBoss against Hana.\\
Part 4 is where her fight count breaks through the roof: she's fought as a co-boss to Flamme in ''Yuriko?''. The Giant Foxie seen through Part 4 is her true self, the one you've seen before being a familiar of this one. It's fought later flanked by familiar Foxie in ''Redemption'', and then the Giant Foxie is the boss of ''Foxie'', the following chapter, that ends BossRush.
* {{Telepathy}}: Her form of communication. [[JustifiedTrope She has no mouth.]]
* TricksterMentor: She's even revealed to be evil, as she never had the girls' best interests in mind, solely the spirits'.
* {{Tulpa}}: What she ultimately is. She even turns on her masters after accomplishing their objective, and the first thing she does after that is try to kill them too.
* WalkingSpoiler: That spoiler trope section exists for a reason.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Eina Mikazuki]]
--> One of the first antagonists, she's suspected to be a monster in disguise by Mima. She repeatedly brutalizes Hana and Rin. [[spoiler:She's actually a time-displaced version of Yuriko, who attempts to draw the spirits out and kill them.]]
!!!Tropes associated with Eina:
* AntiMagic: She has spells that only harm monsters and spirits.
** RedemptionPromotion: She uses these spells as a boss, but they do much less a number on the party than on familiars, meaning those are far more powerful when she's a party member.
** When she joins the party, she naturally increases her magic defense gradually due to this.
* BulletTime: Her primary ability.
* CreepyMonotone
* DitzyGenius: She has her moments, mostly due to being socially awkward and still insecure despite her tough exterior.
* EasyModeMockery: While she's okay with helping Hana save Rin from Daisy, she's in it to save Rin and mocks Hana for needing her help. Picking this route causes a lot of problems, since it causes an unavoidable Blood Feud between Hana and her, which leads to lots of hardships as Eina will show up to kill Hana even outside of the chapters where she's scripted to do so.
* EleventhHourRanger: While playable twice (or three times if you choose to have her be playable rather than a friendly AI in ''Chiharu?'') before ''Yuriko?'', she is ATasteOfPower at those points. She even acts as a boss seven times. Due to regularly leveling up offscreen, her stats always remain up to par for the task.
* EmoTeen
* GreenLanternRing: Her TimeMaster abilities allow her to grant speed buffs, make allies dodge enemy attacks (or [[TakingTheBullet take hits for them]]), and heal.
* ManualLeaderAIParty: She's the only one controlled by AI[[spoiler:, and so until ''The Time Is Here'', in the middle of Part 4]].
* [[OnlySaneMan Only Sane Girl]]: She's very flat-faced and serious. [[spoiler:This is due to retroactive precognition.]]
* RuleOfThree: Rin's three first dialogue choices with Eina have two options. Getting it wrong the first two times merely disappoints her, but the third has Eina lash at Rin for trying to appeal to her instead of being herself. [[spoiler:Picking the right choice at any of the three dialogues has Eina start a friendship with Rin. Succeeding at the three will cause them to LevelUpAtIntimacyFive right there.]]
* TheSociopath: Laments that society has absolutely no place for her [[spoiler:due to how she came to exist. No surprise that her easiest [[LevelUpAtIntimacyFive romance]] option (barring Rin) is '''Kyubi''', who has more or less the same problem (though she isn't quite as emotionally plagued by it)]].
* StatusBuff: A walking machine of speed buffs and other such things.
* TakingTheBullet: A variation, she can take part of the damage meant to anyone she romances.
* WhenSheSmiles: Rin swoons over the idea. [[spoiler:It doesn't happen until after the TrueFinalBoss unless Eina romances anyone.]]
!!!'''Spoiler tropes'''
* [[spoiler:CosmicRetcon: Yuriko wished Eina into existence one month before she came into the city.]]
* [[spoiler:EleventhHourSuperpower: Pulls double duty on this: starting with ''Yuriko?'' you can control her, and on top of that she has Dougal, who keeps increasing Eina's magic resistance.]]
* [[spoiler:NeverTheSelvesShallMeet: Until ''The Time Is Here'', Eina only interferes with Yuriko from a distance. She only interferes directly when she fears Yuriko will create a time loop. When they do meet, they start trying to kill each other on sight.]]
* [[spoiler:TimeParadox: She's an alternate version of Yuriko, wished into existence before she herself came to the city.]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Daisy]]
--> The first spirit to appear, she possesses Chiharu.
* AntiVillain: She is a NonMaliciousMonster as a spirit, and a hapless observer in the extra campaign.
* BreatherBoss: Subverted in ''Reap Own'', the second chapter on the extra campaign. Unlike Peach, she doesn't proactively attack. Unlike Belle, she can't strike back. However, just like them, she can't be killed and will avoid any and all attacks that are potentially lethal.
* DuelBoss: Can be fought as such.
** EasyModeMockery: Not doing so almost locks Chiharu, as she refuses to stay friends with Hana and gains an instinctive dislike to Eina.
* EleventhHourRanger: In the 5-chapter extra campaign detailing the spirits' backstories, she shows up a few turns in ''Enfolded Worth'', the final chapter. To control her, you need to talk to her with Pearl, but it's worth it, as she's nearly as powerful as Peach.
* EnemyScan: And she makes the ElementalRockPaperScissors nastier to scanned enemies as resistances count less and weaknesses count more.
* NonMaliciousMonster: When fought, she seems to be confused more than wishing to kill.
* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: In the extra campaign, she '''defeated Flamme one-on-one'''. [[spoiler:Up to that point, Flamme had been shown to be above most people in terms of power, having little trouble killing Belle while neutralizing Florence.]]
* OneShotCharacter: If you don't have Chiharu in your party, you can't see that Daisy assists Chiharu, and therefore don't see her for the rest of the game.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Momo Sagayama]]
--> A former friend of Mima's. Embittered by [[UnreliableNarrator the latter's betrayal]], she moves in when she hears of Mima having died.
* BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind: Offscreen in-between Parts 3 and 4, she has one against Peach. [[spoiler:As shown in ''Mima?'', Momo lost.]]
* BloodKnight: Starts with heavy emphasis on the blood. Emphasizes the knight later on.
* CastFromHitPoints: Her abilities do so.
* CuteLittleFangs / FangsAreEvil: Starts clearly on the second side.
* FaceHeelDoubleTurn: Part 3 is a long one with her turning nice and Hana turning bad. She even notices that Hana goes worse as she goes better and briefly questions going back to her old ways, pausing her development to take care of Hana, and ultimately swinging for good, though a bit late to prevent Hana giving in to Florence.
* FieryRedhead
* GlassCannon: Due to the above, she dies very easily.
* HatesBeingCalledCute: Pops up in Part 4 [[spoiler:since she shrinks half a foot.]]
* TheMentor: Tries to play herself as one at the start when she offers to help Hana. Since Hana considers her an arrogant bitch at that point, it fails horribly.
* OutdoorsyGal: She only squats in abandoned structures at night, but prefers being outside.
* PutThemAllOutOfMyMisery: Her initial mindset is that life is rough and death is easier.
* SituationalDamageAttack: Hers depend on her HP.
* SuperStrength
* TomboyWithAGirlyStreak: Despite being rough, abrasive, and borderline AxCrazy, she likes her clothes fancy and frilly.
* TomboyishVoice: Alluded to, since Momo voluntarily talks with a raspy voice, but when not voluntarily doing it, she has a clear voice.
* TurnsRed: She's more powerful when her health is low, though gradually instead of needing to pass a certain cap.
* UnkemptBeauty: Commented on with her hair staying long and straight despite her never taking care of herself.
* WhatHaveIBecome: [[spoiler:The tipping point was reached when Hana gave into Florence right before her eyes. She denounces her own jerkassery and attempts to mend her ways as fast as possible.]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Florence]]
--> One of the spirits, she was hidden inside Hana after the latter made a wish.
!!!Tropes associated with Florence:
* AxCrazy: Behind her noble facade, she laughs every time she attacks. This is only while she is a boss.
** The extra campaign shows that she didn't take Belle's death well. She acted erratically and even tortured her own troops in fits of rage.
* ADayInTheLimelight: Part 3 ends on a pair of chapters (''Hana?'' and ''Florence'') revolving around defeating her.
* BodyHorror: Her original boss form goes there, with Hana's legs melting into each other and Florence's body emerging from Hana's back, with Hana herself hanging LimpAndLivid.
* DiscOneFinalBoss: She's the FinalBoss to Part 3.
* DuelBoss: With Momo as her opponent. The first time, Momo has Eina as backup. The second time is the true duel, with Momo and Florence completely alone.
* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:When she defeats Momo, she has a change of heart after seeing how hurtful her actions are.]]
** [[spoiler:During the last chapter of the xetra campaign, she regains self control when Pearl orders her and strikes Belle down, smiling and crying to her as she dies.]]
* TheHeroDies: In the extra campaign, though she was an AntiHero to begin with and couldn't even be called that by the time she dies at the end of ''Allscope'', the fourth chapter out of the extra campaign's five. However, she had the central role in most chapters up to that point, as an assisting character in Chapter 1, and the main protagonist from that point to her death.
* LightIsNotGood: As a spirit, she's constantly in shiny silver armor.
* MonumentOfHumiliationAndDefeat: At the beginning of the extra campaign, she sees her very life as one, considering she was kept alive, and even offered power positions as bribes, while she could have easily been killed. [[DefiantCaptive She knows she's being kept alive for the secrets of her tribe, the workings of the Fountain of Life. And she intends to take them to the grave with her.]]
** [[spoiler:At the end of the extra campaign, she serves as a brainwashed guardian to Peach, the one who killed her.]]
* MultiArmedAndDangerous: As a spirit, she has four arms, each holding a sword of different kind.
* RedemptionDemotion: Appears as a boss, then only assists Hana with nothing but a basic attack that has limited range due Hana's low intelligence.
* WhatTheHellHero: [[spoiler:Delivered to Hana offscreen after she defeated Momo.]]
* WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer: As a support spirit, Florence only has a basic attack as opposed to the other spirits' skills, but it deals big damage.

'''Spoilers will be unmarked due to the late arrival of the following characters.'''
[[folder:Yuriko Amano]]
--> A NewTransferStudent that arrives late into the story. She's shy and nerdy, and has morality problems.
!!!Tropes associated with Yuriko:
* BadassAdorable: She's the youngest of the cast, and the most childish.
* BlackMagicianGirl: The true one.
* CastingAShadow: The majority of her spells.
* ClingyJealousGirl
* DirtyCoward: Early on.
* {{Foil}}: To Eina. They are either similar or completely different in any one way you can find, because Eina technically is a double of Yuriko, changed by the TimeParadox or RetroactivePrecognition-induced CharacterDevelopment.
* FutureMeScaresMe: Eina scares her and her first answer is to lash at her and starting a fight due to how hard the aversion of NeverTheSelvesShallMeet is on her.
* GothGirlsKnowMagic: Frequently called "emo-gothic", check. Knows magic, check.
* LesbianVampire: Literally. She's even played as bad influence, though she's not seductive in any way.
* TheLoad: Not only does she start unfit for all but the weaker spirit enemies of Part 4, she needs to survive a critical plot juncture a few chapters down the line.
* MagikarpPower: She's noticeably underleveled for Part 4, but gains experience a lot faster until ''The Time Is Here'' so she can catch up.
* {{Meganekko}}
* PintSizedPowerhouse: While a bit taller than Rin, she carries herself like a small person while Rin is more firm and has a more natural stance, making her seem taller.
* ProtagonistCenteredMorality: A subjective case, but her idea of morality only helps her.
* StandardStatusEffects: She has a few of these. Gets even more when Flamme shows up.
* SquishyWizard: Very frail especially early on. Her magical attack power is always her far better aspect.
* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend: Whoever she is in a [[LevelUpAtIntimacyFive romance]] with her has the perk of her counterattacking anytime they get hit.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Belle]]
--> The spirit that takes over Mima after she disappears at the end of Part 1.
!!!Tropes associated with Belle:
* BerserkButton: She's obsessed with her beauty. Rough her up by physical attack and she will respond with a...
** CounterAttack: ...nuke spell which has damage depending on the damage she took and diminishes physical attack. She keeps it even as an assist to Mima.
*** ArtificialStupidity: She's a DuelBoss, against Hana, whose damage output mostly comes from Florence. Florence's damage isn't affected by Hana's Attack stat as she has her own (which ironically is dependent on Hana's Magic stat).
* DuelBoss: Except she gets support from Peach and Pearl.
* FriendlyEnemy
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She's a borderline-narcissistic silver-tongue who started her mercantile business with money she stole, and ended up voluntarily taxing the royal servants and stealing from the royal treasury, but this was all to depose the nobility, whom she viewed as responsible for the terrible living condition of the tribespeople.
* JustLikeRobinHood: She acted in the interest of the tribespeople. In her times, this is a term used for those who can't afford houses in the city, having to resort to various crafts to feed themselves and continue work.
* JustifiedCriminal: She was to be executed for stealing from the royal treasury.
* LovableRogue: Acts like one. However, as Baroness, she ended up guilty of what she set out to fix.
* MasterOfAll: She has speed and strength, her slightly fragile disposition is patched up by her ability to lower her opponents' strength, and even though spirits can only stay within a limited range of their vessel, Mima has high enough Magic that the range is wide and Belle has enough movement to move around near-freely AND she even boosts Mima's magic damage for some support utility.
* RedemptionDemotion: She joins the party with Mima as she joins back, but is less powerful and can't be used without Mima around.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Peach]]
--> The spirit that possesses Momo after she fights Florence.
!!!Tropes associated with Peach:
* BigBad: Of the extra campaign.
* InjuredVulnerability: She deals more damage to targets the lower their HP gets.
* LifeDrain: Contrary to Momo's CastFromHitPoints schtick.
* PercentDamageAttack: Most of her moves are dependent on the target's HP, with those getting stronger on lower-health targets.
* RedemptionDemotion: Only serves as support for Momo, though the life-drain she gets heals Momo, which is extremely useful given how HP-intensive Momo is.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: The spirits are only so because a ritual from Peach went [[GoneHorriblyWrong horribly wrong]].
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Pearl]]
--> One of the spirits, forcefully implanted into Rin.
!!!Tropes associated with Pearl:
* BarrierChangeBoss: Even as a playable assist, she functions as one.
* DualBoss: With Peach in ''Lumen''.
* IShallTauntYou: Can "annoy" opponents, forcing them to target her.
* TheLoad: In the extra campaign. She can't attack, provides minimal healing, is extremely fragile (with none of her future taunt-and-NoSell combos), and her death results in a game over from the instant she joins. The thing is she's of critical importance for the final chapter, as from talking to Florence, she causes her to instantly kill both Belle and herself, and she needs to personally defeat Peach, considering nobody else can kill her.
* NoSell: The crux of her spells, though what you get to NoSell is targeted.
* RedemptionDemotion: Seen as a boss, then demoted to a passive defensive support for Rin.
* ShootTheMedicFirst: Somewhat, in her DualBoss fight. Killing Peach first is extremely hard due to how Pearl will constantly [[EnforcedTrope protect her or attract attacks]], and Peach's LifeDrain plus potential Pearl heals can mitigate the damage Peach takes.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Dougal]]
--> The spirit inhabiting Eina, she's a good spirit unlike the others, and seeks to kill Foxie.
!!!Tropes associated with Dougal:
* EleventhHourSuperpower: Serves as this to Eina when she whips her out to kick Yuriko's ass. She's not shown until ''The Time Is Here'', and the only hint to her would be Eina's insistence that she's doing things alone.
* {{Foil}}: To Flamme. Since Yuriko was possessed by Flamme when she made the wish, Eina was created "possessed" by Dougal.
* GoodIsNotSoft: She's also out to kill the other spirits, and doesn't mind roughing up the girls either.
* NoSell: She gives Eina immunity to non-attack damage.
* RippleEffectProofMemory: Averted. While Eina kept all of her memories as Yuriko, Dougal doesn't have Flamme's memories.
* StandardStatusEffects: The first thing she does as Eina's support is erase them, as well as stat reductions.
* SymbioticPossession: Had this with Eina right off the bat.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:Flamme]]
--> The spirit that is forcibly implanted into Yuriko at the start of ''Yuriko?''.
!!!Tropes associated with Flamme:
* ArtificialStupidity: She attempts to use StandardStatusEffects against [[NoSell Kyubi]].
* DuelBoss: In ''Judgement Day''. Considering her opponent is [[PhysicalGod Kyubi]], this fight is [[BreatherLevel an utter joke]].
* GoodIsNotNice: In the extra campaign, she serves as an absolute embodiment of this. While full of sense and trying her best to help Pearl grow into a good queen, she is absolutely callous to everyone else, especially after she caught Belle thieving on the royal treasury, starting the wide-scape conflict encroaching the campaign.
** Deconstructed by the ending to the final campaign, where instead of agreeing to Daisy's demands, she refuses to let Daisy free and instead apprehends her, leading Pearl to run ahead. With Flamme around, Peach could have been apprehended, but without her, Peach was nearly unapproachable.
* OneShotCharacter: And with a bit of luck, Kyubi can actually [[OneHitKill one-shot]] her (Kyubi's RainOfArrows can do 10000 damage to her 9999 HP).
* StandardStatusEffects: As an assist to Yuriko, she spams these, when they can work.
* WarmupBoss: In ''Judgement Day'', she mostly serves as tutorial to show how strong Kyubi is.
* TheWorfEffect: In ''Yuriko?'', Flamme and Foxie overpower the party. In ''Judgement Day'', Kyubi soloes her with relative ease.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:'''SPOILER''']]
!!Kyubi Tsukishiro
--> The embodiment of the Fountain of Life after Rin wishes for it to take her soul.
!!!Tropes associated with Kyubi:
* TheAgeless: Kyubi can't age, but she can be killed by normal means, as a BadEnding involves her killing herself.
* [[AllLovingHero All-Loving Heroine]]: She is only ever antagonistic to those who gratuitously harm or kill others, and even in those cases she wouldn't resort to unleashing her full power on them, mostly due to being the only PhysicalGod around.
* AnthropomorphicPersonification: To the Fountain of Life.
* BackFromTheDead: The only character with a revive spell, outside of Rin IntimateHealing.
** GameplayAndStoryIntegration: Her first action is to revive Rin after she had sacrificed her soul to the Fountain to create Kyubi.
** GameplayAndStorySegregation: However, she can't revive girls who died in a previous chapter even though she technically should be able to.
* ChickMagnet: Everyone loves her. It's also inverted as she loves everyone.
* CrystalDragonJesus
* ElementalPowers: Despite all, she ultimately is a water elemental, and thus the only element she touches upon is water.
* EleventhHourRanger: She comes in during ''Judgement Day''. She only has four chapters to play, with her initial chapter possibly ending in one turn to a OneHitKill. Still, she comes so far ahead of the party that she gives them all 9 levels for free so they can catch up to her.
* HPToOne: Has a 100%-precision such attack, though it doesn't fully work on bosses, except the one she's introduced against, Flamme.
* TheLifestream: An embodied one. However, no spirit actually reincarnates after death, instead being shuffled in with the others to create new spirits unless they retain enough identity.
* LoveGoddess: Is explicitly not one (if she's a goddess of anything, she's a goddess of life), though that doesn't stop her from being able to easily romance anyone (considering she's a massive ball of RescueRomance).
* NoNameGiven: Despite appearing in ''Judgement Day'', she is simply ????????? until the end of ''Redemption'', where the familiarized Foxie names her Kyubi.
* NoSell: She's innately immune to status effects and instant death.
* NonElemental: Sports non-elemental nuke spells.
* NumericalThemeNaming: Most of her spells are either based around the numbers 9, 1 or 0.
* PalsWithJesus: The seven other main girls are the pals, she's the Jesus.
* PhysicalGod: She's the incarnation of the Fountain of Life, the local origin of all life.
* RainOfArrows: Her standard spell. Always deals a multiple of 1000 damage, usually 9000 (90% chance), though she can get 1000 (9% chance), 10000 (0.9% chance), or 0 (0.1% chance).
* RealityWarper: Fitting to her function, Kyubi can accomplish any wish and create life in any form nearly at will, though she can be limited for [[GodsNeedPrayerBadly dishonest wishes]].
* RedBaron: Instantly gets one when recognized, "the Goddess of Life".
* RedHerring: Her name relates to her hairdo, not her species. She isn't a nine-tailed fox, but a water elemental.
* SentientCosmicForce: Borderlining on being one, however she wasn't sentient unless Rin asked the Fountain to take her soul and act.
* StoryBreakerPower: She's so powerful that she can take on all but the FinalBoss on her own. One of the harder parts is not to kill the familiar Foxie before Kyubi can turn her into her own familiar.
* TakesOneToKillOne: The only thing that can kill her is the "Shadow of Despair" that materialized after she became sentient, but retains similar powers.
* TookALevelInBadass: Upon acquiring her, the entire party gains levels, and she's an obscenely-powerful character on her own, bringing the party up to par with the Giant Foxie.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:'''SPOILER''']]
!![[NoNameGiven "The Giant Shadow of Despair"]]
--> The TrueFinalBoss. It's made of the parts of herself Kyubi rejected, and thus it is mostly an embodiment of evil.
!!!Tropes associated with the Shadow of Despair:
* AbstractApotheosis: It's made of ill will and rejected spiritual refuse.
* NonStandardGameOver: There's no boss fight against it if Kyubi isn't [[LevelUpAtIntimacyFive romancing someone]]. In this case, it simply fuses again with Kyubi, forcing her into BystanderSyndrome and ending the story on a "meh ending". If there are three or more romances on the party (and none includes her, that is), this makes Kyubi turn jealous and kill off all the romancing girls, leaving one alone for an instant game over.
** TooDumbToLive: Rin and Kyubi can romance each other instantly, with far enough time to do so, meaning the bad endings require this.
