* TheWoobie: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted.]] Tokage is someone who desperately wants to write a book, and does. However, practically everyone who reads it hates it, and the one person who does like it ends up hating it also, with most of the copies being bought for the sole purpose of creatively destroying them (if the reviews of the final chapter are anything to go by). She loses her friends over it, and she alienates everyone she tries to become friends with with her social awkwardness, and [[spoiler:goes through an unseen, unspeakable torture from Yuuka that leaves her clearly traumatised]]. At the same time, she mostly deserves all the crap she goes through, and is a genuinely pompous, pretentious, sex-obsessed moron, yet most would agree she didn't deserve the latter trauma...
[[AC: The Misadventures of Yukari Yakumo]]
* CreepyAwesome: [[DiscussedTrope Discussed]] by Hebiko in the Author's Notes, directed at Yutaka's performance when she first met Reimu and Marisa, saying she'd love to play up her creepy side like that.
* FridgeLogic: The narrator has this regarding Yuyuko's [[BigEater gluttony]]... she realizes she doesn't actually need to eat because she's a ghost...
* GeniusBonus: This 'definition'; ' her agreement with Dawitsu had made it infeasible- a word which here means 'of positive Gibb's Free Energy'' refers to an equation in the field of chemistry relating Standard Entropy, Standard Enthalpy Change, Temperature, and the feasibility of chemical reactions.
* JerkassWoobie: Arguably the narrator, on accounts that she lost something she was hoping to raise into an adopted child, yet still does highly morally questionable acts, such as MindRape.
* SoOkayItsAverage: The reaction of Momiji to the book, admitting it's far better than [[SoBadItsGood Tokage's]], but at the same time can't see it being marketable.
[[AC: Yutaka's Big Fat Youkai Wedding]]
* GeniusBonus: This speed; 'running from the awkward situation faster than a cathode ray' isn't actually that fast, and most people can run faster than a Cathode Ray.
* LesYay: A little between [[spoiler:Merlin and Youmu]], if you read between the lines. As well as, you know, the ''[[CaptainObvious freaking girl on girl wedding the book centers around]]''
