* DisproportionateRetribution: [[spoiler: When he and Tetsuo confront each other and the former confesses to killing Nobuto and how he intends to turn himself in to atone, Matsuri describes in graphic detail how he's going to brutally torture his wife and daughter [[ForcedToWatch in front of him]] and have them gang raped by organisation thugs before killing him. The sheer overkill he's willing to employ spurs Tetsuo into attacking him.]]

* InsaneTrollLogic: Matsuri justifies everything he plans to do to the Tosus on the fact that they “murdered” his son. Except the only reason it happened was the fact that Nobuto was a vile SerialKiller and Matsuri knew it. Of course, Matsuri is shown to be a violently insane {{psychopath}} as well.

to:

* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Reika insists to her father that nothing is wrong with Nobuto despite there being blatant evidence of him beating her. Unfortunately, she chooses to double down on this belief when Tetsuo suggests otherwise, leading to his and Nobuto's confrontation with each other. Somewhat justified, as it's implied that Nobuto had been emotionally manipulating her into staying loyal to him.

Except the only reason it happened was the fact that Nobuto was a vile SerialKiller and Matsuri knew it. Of course, [[LikeFatherLikeSon Matsuri is shown to be a violently insane {{psychopath}} psychopath as well.well]].



* MoralMyopia: Matsuri in spades. For one, he seeks to find those responsible for his son's disappearance with plans of killing them, yet he's perfectly fine with Nobuto having murdered several of his girlfriends as well as all his other crimes. Tetsuo even points this out to him, not that Matsuri seems to care considering [[AxCrazy he's just as if not more deranged]] than Nobuto.



* SerialKiller: Nobuto would start relationships with young women, often beating them before bleeding them dry of their money, before killing them.
* SpitefulSuicide: [[spoiler: Finding himself incapable of killing Tetsuo, not for lack of trying mind you, and having no reason left to live with Nobuto gone, Matsuri decides to stabs himself under the realisation that the organisation will immediately point fingers at Tetsuo.]]

Added DiffLines:

* WimpFight: [[spoiler:The climatic "battle" between Matsuri and Tetsuo becomes this, as neither are in anything like a fit fighting shape or have experience being in one, further compounded by Matsuri using Pepper spray against Tetsuo, his only means of self-defence, which eventually gets in both their eyes and blinds them both, leading to them awkwardly flailing about the apartment in a pathetic attempt to stop the other. Despite the sub-par showing, it's nonetheless an extremely intense fight for both men, and after realising he can't kill Tetsuo despite his best attempts, Matsuri opts instead for a SpitefulSuicide in order to both [[TogetherInDeath reunite with Nobuto]] and [[FramingTheGuiltyParty turn the organisation's attention on Tetsuo]].]]
* WhereItAllBegan: [[spoiler:Upon verifying that Nobuto is actually dead, Matsuri heads to the apartment when he was fatally ambushed by Tetsuo, falling to his knees roughly where he guesses his body would have fallen to mourn his absent son in the closest possible form he has left. This pitiful display of genuine familial love spurns Tetsuo, who was hiding in the apartment as well, to reveal himself and admit his guilt to Matsuri, begging to be punished alone for the sin he committed against the other father. However, rather than accept that, Matsuri instead tries to make good on his threat to [[DisproportionateRetribution extend his revenge to Tetsuo's family]], forcing a second fatal fight within the apartment]].

** You could argue that Tetsuo engages in this as well, given that he calls himself a “murderer”, despite his actions being the clearest-cut case of self-defense you could ask for.

* EvilCounterpart: Matsuri to Tetsuo. Both are PapaWolves who will go to any lengths for their children, but whereas Tetsuo is a civilian who only committed murder to protect his daughter and committed all subsequent crimes so his family can live in peace and feels guilt over anyone he ends up involving, Matsuri turned to crime to support his son and is fully willing to engage in DisproportionateRetribution on his killer, even telling Tetsuo earlier in a bar how he'll kill the culprit and their whole family, not realizing that it was Tetsuo.

When he's forced to accompany Kyoichi afterwards to search for Nobuto and/or his killer if he turns out to be dead, to help appear more inconspicuous he buys and wears a black trilby over the wrapping, with it serving as his metaphorical [[LetsGetDangerous serious mode]] when he's engaging in a BattleOfWits with Kyoichi and his associates.

* AssholeVictim: Nobuto gets his head bashed in with a heavy rice cooker, but considering how he intended on killing Reika and admitting to disposing of at least two other women, he had it coming. It's also {{Deconstructed}} as well, as no matter how much of a horrible human being he was, Nobuto was still somebody's son, and the manga repeatedly emphasises how his existence was Yoshitatsu's biggest redeeming quality, that he works himself tirelessly to support his son and misses him deeply, being willing to quit the dangerous organisation outright despite the possible threat to his life if their resources can't locate his son. Tetsuo himself takes no pleasure or satisfaction from the act, and suffers from considerable {{Guilt}} afterwards as well

* DramaticIrony: After interrogating Tetsuo and concluding that he and his family does seem to be innocent of Nobuto's disappearance, Kyoichi says that he'll likely just have to frame him as Nobuto's killer to create a convenient scapegoat to placate Yoshitatsu's demands to find out the truth behind his son's vanishing, pointing out that the sequence of events prior to that make most sense if Tetsuo killed him and disposed of his body. His word choice implies that he personally doubts such a spineless salaryman could be capable of the act, and is merely going with that option as an easy solution to his problem, but ''[[FramingTheGuiltyParty that's exactly what happened]]''.
* GroinAttack: Conveniently hiding in Reika's apartment closet when Nobuto visits and announces his willingness to kill Reika in a phone conversation, believing she snitched on him from Tetsuo's investigation into them, Tetsuo uses one of these to gain the advantage over the younger man. Using the element of surprise when he opens the closet, he smashes Nobuto straight in the jewels to force him to double over, using his momentary pain to seize the nearby rice cooker and smash it fatally down on his head.
