* BroughtDownToNormal: In the epilogue, [[spoiler:Kyosuke observes that the powers he was given appear to have gone away after the destruction of the underground ruins, since the energy used to fuel the power probably only exists inside there.]].

* ButThouMust: When Professor Tsuchida asks Ayuto if he'd like to become their ''official'' surveyor, you ''can'' say "No." He just pretends not to hear you, claiming to have wax in his ears, before repeating the question.

* CruelAndUnusualDeath: The potential deaths of the teammates. One of the most horrifying is the potential fate of [[spoiler:Rin Tsukihara]], who gets thrust through a wall and crushed against another by a statue, bleeding out before anyone can help.

* DeathTrap: Naturally, the ruins are filled with them.

* DescendingCeiling: One of these can crush [[spoiler:Ms. Otogi]] if Ayuto isn't able to prevent it.

* DrivenToSuicide: One of your fellow tourists will attempt suicide [[spoiler:twice. The first time is automatically prevented, but the second will succeed if you don't intervene. At the end, Ayuto theorizes the ruins would have left her alone, and she only died because she killed herself]].
** If you [[spoiler:prevent her second attempt by stealing her photo, she'll ask for it back later. Give it back, and she'll make a ''third'' suicide attempt while you're escaping the ruins -- and this time, she'll succeed]].

* GasChamber: In the form of a trap room; naturally, the group must make their way through in order to progress.

* IHaveYouNowMyPretty: [[spoiler:Mizumi]] attempts this on [[spoiler:Otogi]] via {{Blackmail}}, gloating about having done so before.

* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: Professor Tsuchida's true motives: [[spoiler:punishing Kuroe for failing to save his daughter. Originally, by his own admission, he planned to simply work him to the bone... but sees the ruins as an opportunity to subject him to an even worse fate. The tour group gets roped into his plan purely as CannonFodder; he sees their potential deaths as little more than a way to torture Kuroe even ''further'' before meeting his fate]].

* PeninsulaOfPowerLeveling: The Valley Temple, [[spoiler:but only after Nei is either rescued or let killed]], which has Geckos that grant 100 EXP on defeat. You'll really need them for the next part ahead, and Dr. Kuroe is just outside to provide free healing, though you might end up using a few First Aid Sprays just to survive the first few battles.

* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Professor Tsuchida delivers several of these, making no secret of how much he looks down upon those of 'lesser' intellects.

* VillainousBreakdown: Professor Tsuchida completely loses his shit when he sees [[spoiler:Kuroe standing in front of Pharaoh Khufu without being struck down where he stands]].

* BewareTheSuperman: After [[spoiler:Kyosuke]] was blessed as the new Pharaoh, the gang [[spoiler:kept the hotel curtains closed in fear of what would happen if he wakes up and gets into a panicked frenzy and ends up using her newfounded supernatural powers]].

** When the boat they're taking across the underground river starts sinking, Ayuto responds by trying to reduce weight by [[spoiler:shoving the mummy overboard]]. Afterwards, the professor chides him, pointing out how the item he chucked wasn't heavy enough to make a difference, and that he merely 'invoked the mummy's wrath'.

* NephariousPharaoh: [[spoiler:Downplayed with Pharaoh Khufu. He is the FinalBoss and one of the main antagonists, being the one who passes the judgements and controls the dangerous traps in the ruins, but only because he lost his sanity as a result of his eternal stay in the ruins.]]

* DefrostingIceQueen: {{Averted}} by [[spoiler:Saori]]; even if they survive, they never warm up to Ayuto. Most likely because [[spoiler:he prevents her suicide by stealing her TragicKeepsake and keeping it away from her for their entire expedition]].

* BroughtDownToNormal: In the epilogue, [[spoiler:Kyosuke observes that the powers he was given appear to have gone away after the destruction of the underground ruins]].

** On the boat, after the little kid pretends Ayuko is a pervert after crying for his help, getting him slapped by Nei as a result of it, Ayuko goes to the edge of the boat and vents, "[[Anime/MazingerZ BREAST FIRE!!!!!]]" This gets him the Shout command.

However, what the professor ''doesn't'' see fit to mention is that he's only recruiting them out of necessity. Or what ''he'' sees as necessity. For the ruins are heavily booby-trapped, and his presence there isn't strictly approved by the WHC or SCA. Unwilling to risk waiting for the rest of his team, he brings Ayuto and the rest of the tour group into the fold as unwitting meat shields. And as they venture through the ruins, they find that they may not be the only ones there...
