* EvenEvilHasStandards: Gotou terrifies him. It's implied that Uragami can sense the Parasytes because he sees the same act of hiding then killing he uses in their body language but Gotou's love of fighting his victims means he is way quicker to ditch the hiding part than a coward like Uragami would feel comfortable in.

She also doesn't kill Shinichi, despite him knowing too much, because of his unusual symbiotic relationship with Migi and especially when she senses he himself is no longer completely human.

* VillainousParentalInstinct: For the majority of the manga she's been an antagonistic force to Shinichi and Migi, working alongside the rest of the malevolent Parasites in the area who have been killing humans and making attempts on Shinichi and Migi's lives. But when Kuramori kidnaps her baby boy, she immediately kicks into gear and makes her way to him, and when he makes a move to kill her son, she immediately kills him and takes her baby back, agreeing with Kuramori that she never thought she would have cared about her child so much. When the cops show up and begin to fill her with bullets, she doesn't fight back at all, and instead just cradles her baby and protects him from the onslaught. Finally, when she knows she's about to die, she hands her baby over to Shinichi and asks him to make sure a good human family takes him in and raises him well; seconds after he agrees, she tells him that she felt happy when she practiced laughing in the mirror, [[GoOutWithASmile and collapses with a smile on her face.]]

* AbusiveMom: Downplayed, and ultimately subverted, but we sometimes see her carrying the human child she bore around by dangling it by its clothes, and only had a kid to find out what would happen if two Parasites with human hosts had a kid. Justified, in that she has no human maternal instincts at all and honestly did not think she would end up having a kid.
