* AbsurdlySharpBlade: Her blade slices through flesh, bones, armor, and can even pierce stone walls.

* AbsurdlySharpBlade: Her blade ThunderboltIron katana slices through flesh, bones, armor, entire trees thicker than a man's body, and can even pierce stone walls.walls without chipping or losing its edge.



* CoolSword: She forged her own blade, crafted with a metal from a fallen meteorite - most likely iridium - that even Eiji couldn't properly tame. Against light, the sword gives off an eerie blue shimmer. Not only that, but the leg and arm weights she wears can be removed and snapped together with the sword to create an improvised naginata. It's also {{downplayed}}, however. As absurdly dense and strong as iridium is, it's also surprisingly brittle and almost completely impossible to oxidize, making traditional heat treatment just as difficult even at the best of times. [[UltimateBlacksmith While it's no doubt one hell of a feat that she was able to craft a katana from iridium]], [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome it also comes with a case of ensuing reality]]: [[spoiler:Fowler snaps the sword in half with a single, ordinary bullet from a musket.]]

* MercyKill: As requested by Madame Kaji, she is set to kill Kinuyo to free her from Boss Hamata's filthy claws without putting the lives of everyone at the brothel at risk. She snaps her neck, [[CradlingYourKill holds her dead body]] and makes it look as if she defended herself from a guard trying himself on her.

* SupremeChef: Makes excellent soba.soba, though he's initially devastated to learn that he's not the best at it.



* SelfMadeMan: He is the son of a poor fisherman who made a name for himself as a swordsman despite his humble beginnings. Its for this reason that Akemi's NouveauRiche father initially agrees to their engagement.

* FireForgedFriends: Subverted the end of "The Tale of the Ronin and the Bride". Akemi assumes that [[spoiler:having helped Mizu vanquish the Thousand Claws and saving her life means they're now comrades, that her attempt to drug and kill Mizu the previous day is water under the bridge, and that Mizu will protect her from her father's men. And then the exhausted, injured, and angry Mizu coldly turns her over to them]], leaving Akemi devastated and outraged, later describing Mizu as an ''onryƍ'' incapable of anything except hatred.



* HoneyPot: She tries to do this [[spoiler: to kill Mizu, when she encounters her in the brothel but it does not work because she recognizes her from their brief first meeting in Kyoto]].

* AmbiguouslyRelated: Violet as he appears in the flashback to his murder is physically identical to Mizu, but Fowler doesn't seem to consider Violet her father, and it is possible that Mizu was only projecting herself over him, as the flashback [[UnreliableNarrator is presented from her perspective]].

* AmbiguouslyRelated: Violet as he appears in the flashback to his murder is physically identical to Mizu, but Fowler doesn't even seem to consider Violet a candidate to be her father, father (although that might be because he's in the middle of attempting to convince Mizu that she still needs Fowler to go after the others, and thus wants to play up potential resemblance to Skeffington and Routley instead), and it is possible that Mizu was only projecting herself over him, as the flashback [[UnreliableNarrator is presented from her perspective]].

* WithFriendsLikeThese: It's clear that, even though Fowler and Shindo have been business partners and each other's most consistent source of company (even indulging in things like prostitutes and [[{{Sadist}} torture]] together!!) for roughly ''20 year'', they have zero genuine loyalty or affection towards each other. Case in point, Shindo openly ''despises'' Fowler and plots to get rid of him more than once.
