* ThirdPersonPerson: Menma.Menma refers to herself in the third person, both as a child and as a (ghostly) teenager; in the present, this shows how she's still as childish as when she was alive.

Heroes Want Redheads is now a disambiguation, "redheaded love interest" is not a trope on its own.


* HeroesWantRedheads: Inverted. It is the redheaded Anaru who has feelings for Jintan. Whether they stays inverted or gets played straight on Jintan's part remains to be seen, though they are both currently in {{UST}} territory. [[spoiler:The ending hints that eventually get together.]] Yukiatsu, however, plays the trope straight as he asks Anaru out and has a few ShipTease moments with her, [[spoiler:but nothing ever comes to fruition between them.]]

Does Not Like Shoes has been renamed and redefined to focus on characters that explicitly or implicitly state a preference for going barefoot. Removing misuse


* DoesNotLikeShoes: Menma doesn't wear them, though she did when she was alive. It may be an example of JacobMarleyApparel, considering she's shown to have lost her shoes when she drowned and she's wearing the same dress from back then.
