* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: The group consists of a rookie police officer who shows up half an hour late and seems unreliable, another rookie police officer who's rude and short-tempered, a forensic investigator with little field experience who's AfraidOfBlood, and an experienced medical examiner with scar tattoos who likes giving nicknames to his colleagues.

*ContrastingSequelMainCharacter: To Raiko.

*BunnyEarsLawyer: Unlike the others, he's proved himself but is also notoriously eccentric.
*CaptainObvious: When Genba asks him about the victim, he says, "The victim is... ''dead''. Almost as though they... ''died''." Given the situation, he's clearly doing it to mess with Genba.
