* ArbitrarySkepticism: Averted. Everyone Matsuda tells about the time loop believes him pretty quickly, and Gevanni even says that after having accepted Death Notes and shinigami as real he can believe just about anything.
* ColdBloodedTorture: In Chapter 13, [[spoiler:Matsuda tortures Light for information about some unresolved aspects of the Kira case]].
* CradlingYourKill: In Chapter 11, [[spoiler:Light writes Matsuda’s name in his watch while distracting him with a kiss and then holds him while he dies]].
* DespairEventHorizon: Matsuda crosses it after discovering that neither stopping Kira without killing Light nor dying himself will end the loop. TimeLoopFatigue quickly sets in after this point.
* FixFic: Inverted. In the tags on [=AO3=], the author describes their work as “the opposite of a fix it fic” and “an i can make it worse fic”.
* GroundhogDayLoop: The basic premise of the story. Matsuda is trapped in a time loop on January 28th, 2010, waking up again on the morning of that day after every time he goes to sleep [[spoiler:or dies]].
* HopeSpot
** In Chapter 10, Matsuda stays up past midnight and sees the date change over to January 29th with Light still alive and a plan in place to convince him to stop killing permanently. Matsuda believes that this means that the loop has ended and time will progress forward into this hopeful future. The author even teases the audience by naming this chapter “January 29th, 2010” instead of the usual “January 28th”. In the next chapter, when he wakes up and discovers that it’s the 28th again, Matsuda finds himself teetering on the edge of the DespairEventHorizon.
** This leads to a darker version in Chapter 11, when [[spoiler:Matsuda dies for the first time and hopes that he won’t come back]].

* SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong: Subverted. Matsuda initially assumes that the time loop will end if he manages to create a “good” resolution for the events of January 28th, but after several failed attempts he starts to lose hope that a good resolution even exists.
* TimeLoopFatigue: Matsuda gradually loses hope of escaping the loop and becomes acclimated to the idea that his actions don’t have consequences. This leads him to take increasingly reckless and immoral actions, such as [[spoiler:assassinating world leaders on a whim]] in Chapter 12 and [[spoiler:torturing Light]] in Chapter 13.
