* While her actions in harassing Haseo, even bullying Gaspard and later getting herself infected with AIDA and turning [[spoiler: Alkaid into a Lost One]], post-game ''Redemption'' shows that Bordeaux is really just a mess of her own kind, and even partial doing.
** In the news article reporting her brief time comatose after Skeith's awakening, we learn she's a biracial teenage girl, which, in the very homogenous Japan, would already invite some social pressure and baggage, whose parents' marriage are constantly rocky. Being Bordeaux is her only tangible means of venting out that frustration.
** And then, at some point, she met Haseo. [[spoiler: She realized he was a kindred spirit (and out of universe, we learn she's very much correct on that assessment), and tried to reach out to him....with the only way she knew how to interact with people. Naturally, it didn't endear her at all to the equally-troubled teen, starting their feud. It got worse when she saw him building a stable base of friends out of Canard, Atoli, G.U., and the saner members of Moon Tree, and was filled with envy, causing her to lash out even further. Being one-shotted by him certainly made things worse, and so, she was prime for Sakaki to infect her with an AIDA, just causing her negativity to blaze out of control and lead to more disaster that certainly made Haseo hate her more]].
** [[spoiler: It takes her EnemyMine during the Cubia crisis to make her start from scratch and approach Haseo the way she should have had in the first place: exchanging member addresses. Luckily for her, Haseo has gone through his own CharacterDevelopment and realize he should also put their past behind them, thus accepting her. Party interactions show she's trying MUCH harder not to be someone Haseo would hate. Old habits die hard, and she still proclaims it's all so she can close enough to PK him, but it's very obvious by that point that [[{{Tsundere}} she's putting up a facade to avoid not looking as tough as she's known to be]]. The one time she chooses to completely drop her guard and pretty much confess her side is if you choose her for the Promise ending]].
** In short, [[spoiler: Nina Kircheis is a tragedy of miscommunication, wanting friends to have outlets away from her crappy home life, but ends up often making more enemies than friends due to her antagonistic behavior. She's also a ShadowArchetype for Haseo, showing what would happen to him if he did not work harder to properly interact with people.]]

* Gaspard and Silabus are blissfully unaware of the very real threat to the world for most of the game, but it's still heartbreaking to find out the entirety of Kestrel has been ganging up on Gaspard (IRL A 13 YEAR OLD) and scaring other players away from the Acorn Guild Shop with threats of PK. He's been miserable and refusing to mention it for fear of distracting Haseo and Silabus from the upcoming tournament. The worst thing is even though Haseo 'solves' the problem of the actual bullying, the whole thing has massively shaken Gaspard's enjoyment of the world.

** In the Last Recode, it's revealed that Saku is no longer around as much as she used to be. While this is sad, it also implies something more positive to both the audience and Haseo: if Saku is around less, Bo much be doing better in the real world, which implies his situation has improved.
* Haseo's reacton to Ovan's dissapearance (at the time, an apparent death) in the third volume, is heartbreaking.
