Trope was cut/disambiguated due to cleanup


* KickTheSonOfABitch: Played with. He does kill off despicable people -- the most prominent one being Leo Akaba (who in his canon show [[KarmaHoudini got away with a shit-ton of atrocities]]) -- but it's done more to satisfy his own ego than to actually put the sons of bitches to justice.

* PastLifeMemories: Like most reincarnated Denizens, he has a few of these of his former life, but he works ''very damn hard'' to suppress them in order to ensure that his PurposeDrivenImmortality doesn't get compromised.

* PastLifeMemories: Like most reincarnated Denizens, he has a few of these of his former life, but he works ''very damn hard'' to suppress them in order to ensure that his PurposeDrivenImmortality doesn't get compromised. Being forced to remember these memories is what eventually leads to his end.



* RessurectiveImmortality: While Ogami can ''technically'' die, he doesn't ''stay'' dead; upon having his physical form destroyed, his soul retreats into a coccoon state where he waits until he's fully healed up and emerges like a Butterfly.

to:

* RessurectiveImmortality: PupatingPeril: Befitting his overall butterfly motif, when he reforms from his caterpillar form back into his Ogami form, he does so through a cocoon.

Added DiffLines:

* PreInsanityReveal: The flashback in Grace's mindscape reveal the person he used to be before going completely insane as part of his reincarnation: he was a disturbed youth called Mark Kessler who decided to take advantage of the reincarnation system in order to bring "paradise" to the train.

* {{Foil}}: Essentially is this to Sara Diktaylis, as they both hate Chloe for getting attention and would do ''anything'' to slander her good name. Perhaps the biggest difference between the two of them is the ''scale'' at which they work. When Sara started out, Chloe [[LonersAreFreaks already had a shaky reputation]] among her twenty-odd classmates. Sara exploited that to [[TallPoppySyndrome turn Chloe into the class punching bag]] with [[MaliciousSlander unsubstantiated claims]] that ''she'' was secretly a bully. Vox, on the other hand, is faced with a Chloe [[OneHundredPercentAdorationRating who is a beloved celebrity to countless denizens.]] However, he remains confident [[BrokenPedestal that he can tear away her heroic image for good]], and [[VillainHasaPoint has some fairly solid evidence]] to aid him in [[ManipulativeEditing "reframing the narrative".]]
* HannibalLecture: Delivers one to Goh with how much Chloe hurt him and how he can have the reputation she had if he lets him.

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process


* TheUnsmile: Part of the reason he's so UncannyValley to some people is that whenever he smiles, it doesn't feel quite right, either being too calm for what he does or being too wide.
* UncannyValley: In-Universe. A recurring motif in his description is that face is a little too...something. His eyes are a little too big, his smile a little too gentle, or a little too ''wide''...

Added DiffLines:

* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: Dahlia was killed by hanging in ''Ace Attorney'' canon. In here, [[spoiler:Ogami ends up killing her in rage as he turns into his final boss form.]]


Added DiffLines:

* EasyImpersonation: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]], but Dahlia shares enough similarities with Chloe, and has enough knowledge on her adventures, that she only needs to recite these adventures and ''say'' she is Chloe Cerise for the denizens of the jungle car to obey her. The fact the Denizens are incredibly blind and far behind on what has actually happened on the Train probably helps.

* DwindlingParty: As Act 3 of ''Voyage of Wisteria'' goes on, the crew begins losing more and more of its members: [[spoiler: March Hare and Malika get taken out by the Corginians, Vox gets wiped out of existence, Dahlia gets killed by Ogami in a fit of rage, and Ogami himself ceases to exist once he's forced to confront his unsavory past.]] The only person still remaining is [[spoiler: Mad Ben, who's stuck in a corgi form and unable to transform back.]]



* VillainTeamUp: They all gather together in order to better accomolish their respective goals, although it's very clear they only do this out of convenience.

to:

* VillainRevealsTheSecret: It's the tag team of Vox and Dahlia who ultimately [[spoiler: reveal Chloe's unsavory beginnings before the Infinity Train, and thus the fact that she's not the innocent damsel she painted herself as.]]
* VillainTeamUp: They all gather together in order to better accomolish accomplish their respective goals, although it's very clear they only do this out of convenience.


Added DiffLines:

* HeelFaceReincarnation: [[InvertedTrope Inverted]]. As Mark Kessler, he was a ''very'' unstable but ultimately neutral entity. It's once he becomes aware of the reincarnation processes and pulls a ThanatosGambit to become Ogami does he become truly evil.
* HeelRealization: How he's defeated; Goh takes him inside his mind to see back his memories and come face to face with the fact that he wasn't as selfless as he paints himself to be.

Dewicking as Static Character is Definition Only


* StaticCharacter: Enforced. Ogami's brand of immortality, as revealed later on, is based on SingleIssuePsychology: as long as he keeps focus on one particular issue and doesn't work on it, he'll keep coming back again and again. In other words, he ''has'' to stay like this, lest he suddenly cease to exist.

Added DiffLines:

* AwfulTruth: Getting him to confront this, and come to realize that his "good intentions" weren't really good at all, is the key component needed to defeat and stop him once and for all. Goh eventually manages to get this through him when they're at his mindscape, and once he does, Ogami dies in short order.


Added DiffLines:

* CollectorOfTheStrange: More "grotesque" than strange to be honest, but his collection is made up of ''the hundreds of souls of Passengers he's killed over the years''.


Added DiffLines:

* DidntThinkThisThrough: He adopted a SingleIssuePsychology in order to become well and truly immortal... and he doesn't think to completely avoid the Tape Car for the final battle, but instead ''lead everybody into it'' in order to send his message. Surely enough, Goh tricks him into entering his own mind and triggering his own death.
* DidntSeeThatComing: He's completely stumped when he finds out that Goh took him not to his mindscape but, as revealed by the taxidermic animals around them, ''his own'', which serves as the final nail in the coffin for him.

Added DiffLines:

* YouAreAlreadyDead: When Ogami catches up to Goh in what he believes to be the latter's dreamscape, it takes him a second to realize that the mental realm with taxidermic displays of animals is not Goh's mental realm, but ''his own'', at which point Goh is already in the middle of unveiling his true memories and making him confront his past, which ultimately leads to his death. However, he stays around long enough to apologize to Goh got everything before being swallowed by his butterflies.
* YouAreTooLate: As said above, by the time he realizes he and Goh are not in the latter's dreamscape but his own, Goh is in the middle of making Ogami confront his past actions.

* EnemyToAllLivingBeings: He's an immortal sociopathic SerialKiller who'll kill anyone and anything in order to achieve his goals.



* GivenNameReveal: For the longest time, he's OnlyKnownByTheirNickname, this being either Ogami, his Denizen name, or one of his many alternate forms. It's only later down the line do we learn his real name is Mark Kessler.



** His metal butterflies can steal the soul of a Passenger, but this requires them to be in contact with said Passenger when they perish. Until then, they're about as harmless as a metallic butterfly would be, and can even be sold with no danger to the Passenger.



* MaskOfSanity: Ogami is perfectly capable of acting no different than the average Denizen, if a little bit more creepy than usual. Then he takes out the metal butterflies and the mask gets thrown out the window.



* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: The vast majority of characters only know him as "The Unsub" and if not, then as one of his many Denizen names. Very few know his actual name is Ogami, and even fewer manage to learn his real name is Mark Kessler and live to tell the tale.



* PastLifeMemories: Like most reincarnated Denizens, he has a few of these of his former life, but he works ''very damn hard'' to suppress them in order to ensure that his PurposeDrivenImmortality doesn't get compromised.



* SecretlySelfish: No matter what Ogami tries to argue, at the end of the day, it's clear that his kills are done less for the good of the Train, and more to rationalize his own actions.
