198* GoodCounterpart: To the Copycat Killer. Both take on the identities of other people, but while the Ultimate Imposter means no harm to those he pretends to be (even impersonating the reclusive Ryota in order to cover for him, with his permission), the Copycat Killer is a cold-blooded parasite who wishes to steal his victims' lives and accomplishments.
199* IJustWantToBeLoved: It's implied that they secretly long for a family or place who can love them for who they are.

277* DarkIsNotEvil: While she's somber, never one to mince words and has been forced to assist in Hope's Peak's coverups several times, Estu is nevertheless a morally decent person. At [[spoiler: Kana's funeral]], she encourages the members of the Quantum Crew to save as many people as they can and to help make their lives better.

281* JerkassHasAPoint: As cruel as it was for her to proclaim, she points out that [[spoiler:Kana dying is a much kinder fate as her bullet wounds would have left in her a more painful living situation. [[NeverSpeakIllOfTheDead That still doesn't stop Chiaki from attacking her]]]].
282* JerkassToOne: She often expresses discontent towards Kyoji due to [[spoiler:having to take care of the deceased human test subjects that were involved in the Kamakura Project. Even then, she does request he seek counseling and doesn't truly hate him. After he offers a personal apology, they become friends.]]
283* OddFriendship: Gloomy, dour, and pessimistic Estu is best friends with the extraverted, energetic, and friendly Mayumi.

293* MyGreatestFailure: [[spoiler: When she was younger, she had a crush on another girl in her team and, after winning a big competition, Mayumi impulsively kissed her...right in front of her mother and the entire crowd. The girl's mother publicly shamed Mayumi and her crush dropped out of the team, and was later DrivenToSuicide. Mayumi ultimately blames herself for it, even if it was outside her control.]]
294* NiceGirl: She's very outgoing and friendly.
295* OddFriendship: To the surprise of many, she considers the the somber, pessimistic Estu her best friend. [[spoiler: Mayumi ended up developing feelings for her and they eventually get together.]]
296* PassionateSportsGirl: Passionate, energetic, upbeat and very outgoing. Even Estu smiles much more when she's around her.
297* TransparentCloset: [[spoiler: As revealed in ''Die Free or Live Hard'', Mayumi is a closeted lesbian and refuses to discuss her sexuality with anybody after what happened with her crush. But to Umeko and her older brother Hideyoshi, which way she swings and how much she's struggling with it are fairly obvious. Masa likewise notes that Mayumi is far from subtle about her feelings towards Estu.]]
