7* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: "Crawl" and "Aru ga Mama" (the anime's opening and second ending song, respectively). "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1A28tZtVU-c Yureru Kokoro]]" from the OST also qualifies; it's simultaneously strong and mournful and enhances the emotional impact of several scenes.
8* CompleteMonster: Miharu's seemingly-aloof ally, [[spoiler:Fuuma Kotarou]], is the [[BigBad true mastermind]] behind the tragedy surrounding the former's life. A 117-year-old ninja with shapeshifting powers, he [[ManipulativeBastard manipulates]] multiple important people to obtain the Shinrabanshou so he can become [[AGodAmI God]]. Posing as Inasa, he founds Kasa and uses the organization to train children and teenagers into becoming his [[ChildSoldiers expendable assassins]]. A decade before the story, he [[spoiler:brutally killed a four-year-old Miharu in front of his mother]], hoping to drive the latter to despair. In the story's climax, he betrays and murders his partner, before trying to steal the Shinranbanshou from Miharu--knowing doing so would kill Miharu--and tortures [[TheMentor Tobari]] while he orders his servants to kill all of Miharu's friends.
9* EnsembleDarkhorse: Judging by Website/YouTube comments, Gau is quite popular in the English-speaking fandom.
10* FanNickname:
11** [[spoiler:Owlzawa, Oldzawa, and Shotazawa]] for Kouichi[[spoiler:'s various forms.]]
12** [[PapaWolf Papa Yukimi]], due to Miharu calling him "Papa" at one point.
13%%** Some people have also started referring to the series as "naberry", and members of the fandom as "naberries".
14%%** Kumohira is "Pedo-sensei".
15* {{Fanon}}: The fans seem to like making Raimei a YaoiFangirl, or at least a ShipperOnDeck for Miharu and Yoite.
16%%* FanPreferredCouple: Miharu/Yoite, Raikou/Gau, and Kouichi/Raimei.
17* FashionVictimVillain: Raikou for sure, except for the outright "villain" part. His work clothes include something like a denim vest, a hakama over jeans, and sandals. His casual clothes are canonically recognized as really, really, ''really'' terrible. He has seriously considered buying a coat of gold sequins. And one with giant stars across it. And has worn a shirt with huge feathers hanging off the back.
18* HoYay: Miharu and Yoite are ''really, really'' bad at acting like foes, [[spoiler:especially after Miharu's HazyFeelTurn]]. There's some between Kumohira and Yukimi too. Not to mention the rather creepy scene where [[spoiler:Hattori]] is practically hitting on Yoite - [[spoiler:''"You really are diligent and smart... as well as beautiful."'']]
19* InformedWrongness: Much is made of how immoral Oda Yae's [[{{Telepathy}} Mind Reading]] technique is. While she does use it in [[MindRape unsavory ways]], Tobari's declaration that using it makes her worse than [[HateSink Nowake]] (who, depending on the medium, either killed [[spoiler: Yae's daughter]] or allowed said character to die), is a little hard to swallow, especially since the person she was using it on at the time was an enemy.
20* IronWoobie: Raimei has been through a lot of crap, between losing her entire family except her brother (who ''killed them''), losing her [[spoiler:brother too]] (anime only) and losing her [[spoiler:boyfriend]] (manga only). But she never backs down.
21%%* [[JustHereForGodzilla Just Here For The]] HoYay: See LGBT fanbase, below.
22%%* LGBTFanbase: Somewhat unsurprisingly, the series has a sizable LGBT fanbase.
23* MemeticMolester: Hattori may have risen to this, thanks to all the [[NoSenseOfPersonalSpace neck-touching]]. And his 'praise' of Yoite.
24%%* MemeticMutation: [[FreudianSlip Gay - I mean, Gau!]]
25* MoralEventHorizon: [[spoiler: Fuuma killing four-year-old Miharu]].
26** Raikou nearly crosses it when he [[spoiler:tries to kill Raimei, only to be stopped by Gau]].
27* {{Narm}}: In the last episode of the anime, a smiling image of [[spoiler: the [[DeathByAdaptation dead]] Raikou]] appears in the sky as Raimei and Gau are talking about him. Given [[DeadHorseTrope how old and frequently parodied]] that device is, it's hard to take it seriously.
28* NightmareFuel: Among other things, [[spoiler: 4-year-old Miharu getting his face blown off]] and [[spoiler: Asahi's body ''falling to pieces'']].
29** The times where Kouichi shows his darker side are pretty freaky, [[http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/3/3/846856/kouichi1.jpg with this moment as a good example example]]. Mother of God...
30%%* StoicWoobie: Miharu and Yoite.
