* MadnessInducedOmnivore: As a child, Miko liked to play with insects, and would sometimes eat them. This horrified her mother, who told Miko that she would turn into a bug if she kept doing it. Miko was scared by this but was unable to stop herself, and her mother struck her and eventually tried to kill her when she couldn't tolerate it anymore. However, this resulted in Miko becoming a vampire.

* MonsterClown: In the first book, a street clown whose makeup makes him greatly resemble [[SerialKiller Ed Gacy]] abducts and rapes Luna.

* OurVampiresAreDifferent: The vampires in this story are either created by being "rejected" by the earth when they're buried, or by drinking the blood of another vampire. A vampire having sex with a normal human also appears to work, as the dark-skinned vampire raping Miko's mother apparently turns her. They don't have fangs, and usually feed by cutting their victims' throats with a knife or razor. They can fly, have super strength, and are immortal, although drinking blood causes them [[AgeWithoutYouth to age physically]]. It is not said whether or not they will die without drinking blood, but [[HorrorHunger they become consumed by blood thirst the longer they go without]], and it appears that drinking blood makes them orgasm. They can be killed by sunlight, being staked or similarly stabbed through the heart, or beheaded.

* BaitAndSwitch: One of the mysteries of the second volume is the naked woman wearing only a hood. It seems as though she is Miko Takibana, as she is seen eating insects and is being held captive by the other vampires, which jives with Miko's behavior as a child and the fact that she disappeared many years ago. However, it's revealed that she's just some strange woman, and Miko is actually one of the vampires who are her captors.

Misuse of Freudian Excuse, which is about how childhood/adolescent trauma causes someone to become a villain


''The Laughing Vampire'' is a two-volume manga by Creator/SuehiroMaruo. Book One recounts how, years later, Rakuda finds a kindred spirit in a high school student named Konosuke Mori, and turns him into another vampire. Konosuke's transformation has repercussions on the lives of two of his classmates: Luna Miyawaki, a girl who, scared by a [[FreudianExcuse childhood incident]], has a deep loathing of everything sexual and compares sex with being bitten by a vampire, and Sotoo Henmi, an ordinary-looking loner who is secretly an arsonist with necrophiliac fantasies, and keeps a journal titled ''The Laughing Vampire''.

* FreudianExcuse: Luna was molested when she was a child, and this has led to her feeling disgust with anything sex-related, relating those things to being preyed upon by vampires. She's very put off by her classmate's naughty activities with the seniors she visits, she can't stand the sight of her pregnant older sister, and she even [[DCupDistress laments her breasts getting bigger]] as she's showering. Once she becomes a vampire, she seems to lose a lot of her inhibitions and makes out with Mori.
