* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: Yes. This story was written for children.

* {{Wangst}}: Yozo suffers from this trope to some fans. Admittedly he is supposed to come off as pathetic, with even him commenting on how awful he became as a product of a strict upbringing, [[RapeAsBackstory sexual abuse]], and an unsatisfying lifestyle born out of his inability to connect to people. However, some viewers found his despair unworthy since he had riches, good health, multiple women to sleep with, and multiple chances to turn his life around. People were much more sympathetic to [[Literature/NoLongerHuman his novel incarnation]].

* {{Wangst}}: Yozo. He's got money and charisma and somehow manages to be suicidally depressed. The only explanation is an incident where it's implied he was molested by several women as a child. To be fair, this is very different from the novel, in which the sexual abuse just one of his many problems and he was already a very troubled child when it happened. The truly wangsty part is found in the novel when he decided he wanted to kill himself because he didn't have enough money on him (try to imagine someone wanting to commit suicide because he couldn't buy a hot dog).
** Mental illness doesn't discriminate, you can "manage to be" depressed regardless of how good you've got it in life.
** Furthermore, depression doesn't always have a clear-cut cause. Anyone can fall victim to mental illness, no matter how "successful" they are.
** His depression seems to revolve around the fact that he really can't relate to anybody or anything on more than a superficial level.
** In the novel he becomes actually dirt poor, as his clinical depression causes him to drop from high school, sever his ties with his family and drop several times his work as a good comic book artist. He feels himself unable to relate with life, thus everything goes downhill because of his depression, not otherwise

* HellIsThatNoise: The hell sequence is made ten times creepier by using background music from the ''No Longer Human'' arc.

* HellIsThatNoise: Glass windchimes.

* HoYay: Joshima acts flirtatiously around Takada and him asking Takada to go to Tokyo sounds like they are eloping together (Takada proclaiming that he is willing to follow Joshima to the ends of the earth ''did not help''). Probably not a coincidence that the character designs are by [[ThePrinceOfTennis Takeshi Konomi]].

* MoralEventHorizon: Plenty of viewers feel that Shigemaru crossed this when he started collecting human heads purely for Akiko's enjoyment.

* CompleteMonster: The king.
