* {{NEET}}: Though only Shinra seems interested in prodding her about it, Miyu has done next to nothing after graduating college. [[spoiler:When she's done enough research to make opening a restaurant practical, suddenly she switches to a new project involving robotics because she's afraid of death and things coming to an end. That would be fine in its own way, but even robots don't live forever.]]

* PaperThinDisguise: Wanting to conceal his true identity, Ren pulls off the masterful costume of… wrapping his coat around his face and talking exactly like he always does while giving himself a silly title. Well, maybe his disguise got bonus points for having a baseball cap and sunglasses. Somehow, Yume is not fooled, though her friends might have fallen for it.

* MiseryBuildsCharacter: Right when it’s becoming obvious to the reader (but not Ren yet) that Yume is fundamentally weak thanks to being spoiler, the colonel drags him aside and explains that he and Yume are probably going to have a fundamental disconnect. Ren’s hard live has made him tough and Yume’s easy life has made her soft and weak willed.

to:

* MiddleChildSyndrome: Played with. Yume seems to be the most "neglected" out of everyone else; it's sometimes played for laughs in that it's not because she doesn't have enough to her character, it's just that everyone is too crazy and lively compared to her.

Yume is upset because her sister is always fairly distant with her. [[spoiler:Shinra assumes that Yume remembers they had a quarrel after their parents died, but while Shinra was probably about twelve or so, Yume was maybe five and doesn’t remember a thing.

* HeadsIIWinTailsYouLose: If Shinra beats Miyu in a game, Miyu has to strip. If Shinra loses (and she does) then she decides she has to strip in front of Miyu, who really doesn’t want to see. And since she’s already in her underwear, why not have some fun?

* OlderThanTheyLook: Shinra calls Miyu a 'loli' since she is so short and looks much younger than she is. She's at least older than Yume and a college graduate, but since she's also a graduate she probably skipped some grades.

* ACupAngst: Miyu does not appreciate being told that it’s physiologically impossible for her to hold someone to her chest the same way Mihato can. She even attempts to whip him for it as she had warned previously, though given how tiny she is it really doesn’t hurt much.

When Hato nuzzles her to her chest, she enjoys it well enough until she realizes she’s being treated like a kid. After, she asks how she grew such a large chest and the answers are… less than helpful.


Added DiffLines:

* VanityIsFeminine: Miyu is convinced that she's an elegant, mature beauty and just eats up flattery. When told that she's cute she seems to feel it doesn't fit her image but, again, she's quite vain and loves the praise anyway.

* MasterOfTheMixedSignal: She tends to be fairly molest-y when interacting with people, but also hates it when servants don't know their place. Building on the first thing is that she develops some sort of feelings for Ren, so she wants to have her cake and eat it too by being able to use him like a toy while also keeping him out of her affairs, which she gets called out on.

to:

* ServileSnarker: Ren's internal monologue can be rather sarcastic at times and sometimes his mouth slips and he actually says what he's thinking.
* WouldntHitAGirl: No matter how angry Ren gets, he won’t hit women. [[spoiler:Watching his father do it casually finally convinces him that he’s different from his father and gives him the strength to oppose him.]]



* TheTease: Full-stop.

* SoftSpokenSadist
* SpitTake: When Yume decides to introduce her new boyfriend, Shinra spits out all her tea. Right onto Miyu, who is convinced she did it on purpose. And she kinda did.
* TheTease: Full-stop.
Shinra teasing or flirting with someone is basically the only way she’ll express affection. She gets angry the first time Ren walks in when she’s changing, but when she comes to like him more she just asks if he likes the view.
* {{Troll}}: Shinra finds it hilarious to make people suffer, like looking really angry after Ren [[spoiler:breaks a vase that is actually mostly worthless]] because she just wants to see him depressed.
* {{Tsundere}}: As Shinra becomes more attracted to Ren, she continues to treat him like a toy, indicating all sorts of internal conflicts. In the end, she turns out to have far more difficulty bringing out her dere side than Beni.
* TheWomanWearingTheQueenlyMask: She bottles up most of her emotions due to the weight of expectations pressing her down. She actually likes cute stuff like pandas and finds her job stressful, but usually doesn't let any of it show.
* YouWillBeSpared
** While playing a shooter game with Shinra, they manage to gather a number of captives, including the enemy general. She decides that the general is accepting responsibility for his failure and executes him, but spares his soldiers as a gesture of respect.
** When Ren’s character dies on the next level, she mercilessly kills one attacker while the other begs for his life. [[AvertedTrope She takes vengeance for her fallen comrade instead.]]



* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: Miyu is not bothered when seen naked in front of servants. In fact, she asks Ren to wash her back. Naturally, when she begins thinking of him as something more than a servant, her previous attitude starts fading, much to her confusion.



* TeenGenius: Although she is not quite a teen anymore.

to:

* TeenGenius: Although Her age is unclear, but it's right on the border of adulthood. She must have been one in the past, though, consider she's a college graduate.
* TokenMiniMoe: Thanks to Miyu’s appearance, Ren thinks she’s a little girl at first when she’s actually at least his own age as well as a college graduate. And probably the most mature of the sisters.
* WhatIsThisFeeling: Miyu is rather confused mid route as to why she’s getting jealous over Ren or shy around him. All the other servants and both her sisters are talking about it while even Ren knows it’s a point of gossip, but she’s completely in the dark.
* WhatTheHellHero: When Miyu finally learns why Shinra is acting so hostile towards Yume, her facial expression says everything that needs to be said. Including a “…Seriously? You’re that petty?” face. Not that
she leaves it at that, but she probably could have if Shinra had actually thought about the situation at all from the other perspective.
* WhipItGood: Annoying Miyu results in a whipping. However, she’s both pretty weak and the whip
is designed not quite to really hurt, so the physical pain is pretty minor… unless the more enthusiastic Shinra uses it, at which point it really hurts and then starts to turn into BDSM play, much to Beni’s annoyance.
* YouMakeMeSic: When Yume tells Miyu and Shinra she has
a teen anymore. boyfriend, Miyu corrects her on her English pronunciation. Twice.



* SelectiveObliviousness: Whenever Yume hears something she doesn’t like or something that she’ll have to work hard at, she tends to sink into denial.
* ThirdPersonPerson: She always uses the third person. It's both cutesy and kind of telling about her character: She's very immature.
* ThisIsSomethingHesGotToDoHimself: When Yume gets into a fight with Kei, she tries to get Natose and Ren to help her out, but Shinra steps in and forbids Natose from assisting. She doesn’t do the same for Ren, but he realizes (with a little help from Ageha) that she’s right and he should make Yume do it herself without being ordered.
* TryingNotToCry: After finally blowing up at Shinra, Yume tries to retract her statement by saying it was an April Fool’s joke, but nobody buys it since she’s crying and doesn’t realize it.



* {{Tsundere}} Benis is constantly going tsuntsun on Ren and occasionally on Mihato, but is completely deredere for Shinra.
** She goes deredere on Ren on occasion, though usually when he's not looking/there. Episode 11 has a perfect example.

to:

* {{Tsundere}} Benis SelectiveObliviousness: Beni knows that she’s [[spoiler:never going to be Shinra.]] She simply avoids admitting it to herself until Ren confronts her about it.
* SelfMadeMan: Beni’s goal
is to be one day as rich and fabulous as Shinra. She started an orphan, was sold to a restaurant and studied endlessly by herself. She worked hard without cease in isolation. She did nearly turn to petty theft before meeting the colonel, who was impressed with her abilities and determination and hired her as the Kuonji family chef.
* SmarterThanYouLook: Beni is trilingual despite having almost nothing in the way of education before entering Japan. She also studies
constantly going tsuntsun on in her free time.
* {{Tsundere}}: Beni and
Ren argue constantly, but if he says anything genuinely nice to her she tends to get flustered easily. Of course, that rarely happens. [[spoiler:At the end of Shinra’s route she steps in without hesitation to defend him from his dangerous father and occasionally on Mihato, but is completely deredere gets hit for Shinra.
** She
her trouble.]] Once she goes deredere dere, she also pretty much stays dere. Also, despite picking on Ren on occasion, though usually Natose more than anyone else (Meaning, at all) she gets jealous when he's not looking/there. Episode 11 has a perfect example.

to:

* {{Yandere}}: Don't mess with Mihato!
She's nice enough... so long as you're Ren. And you don't show interest in other girls. Otherwise, she's terrifying.



* SanitySlippage: [[spoiler:In Natose’s route, she grows increasingly obsessed with her desire to protect Ren and begins neglecting everything else to the point where she gets threatened with dismissal if she doesn’t turn her behavior around. Rather than begin working properly again, she decides she’ll have to knock Ren and Yume out and kidnap them so she won’t have to leave them.]]
* ShipperOnDeck: Natose rather likes the idea of Ren and Yume together.
* TearsOfBlood: When Natose remembers what happened to her village, she not only begins to cry, but blood seeps out from beneath her eyepatch.




to:

* SomethingWeForgot: When [[spoiler:Yume runs away from home]], Ren and Natose eventually [[spoiler:talk her through it and prepare her for a reconciliation with Shinra.]] In the meantime, he calls everyone else to let them know they can go home… except Haru, who is left wandering around town until nightfall. He actually does feel really badly when he remembers, though.
* YankTheDogsChain: Chiharu has a crush on Beni, but whenever it seems like he might be getting a chance she tends to brush past or mock him without even realizing.


Added DiffLines:

* TearsOfBlood: Played for ''comedy''. During De Niro's attempt at singing during the cherry blossom viewing, Kojuuro is seen bleeding from the eyes and ears. And it doesn't appear to bother him in the slightest!
* UndyingLoyalty: Koujuurou is endlessly devoted to Ageha, partially due to saving him with a transfusion when he was injured. When Ren assumes he finds Ageha a pain in the ass he gets punched quite hard for his attempt to stick up for Kojuuro.


Added DiffLines:

* WouldHitAGirl: Much to Ren's disgust, he punches [[spoiler:Beni when she tries to stand up for him.]] This finally inspires him to [[spoiler:declare he and his father are different and fight back.]]

* MissingMom: Ren and Mihato's mother died when Ren was born.
* MistakenForGay: Through the use of extreme powers of seeing what they want to see, Yume and Beni decide that Ren must be gay in Beni’s route and then tell everyone else. At least Natose actually bothers to go and confirm it for herself.
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Because he won’t fight back [[spoiler:Ren’s father]] just repeatedly kicks him in the face while hurling abuse at him. [[spoiler:When Ren finally fights back, he returns the favor. Beni helps! Awww, bonding.]]

** Ren's father tries using this on him, telling him all he's good for is breaking things, something Ren had thought many times before.

* ReplacementGoldfish: Natose quickly gets attached to Ren because he looks and acts rather like her own little brother did. When they get closer in her route, she asks if it’ll be a bother to him if she treats him a bit like a second chance to protect the family she lost.

to:

* {{Ojou}}MeaningfulName: Shinra’s name carries the character for forest [[spoiler:and she spends all her money buying nature preserves.]]
* MoodSwinger: Shinra can quickly go from amused and intimate to aggressive and hostile quite quickly. Ren has trouble coping with it.
* NervesOfSteel: No matter how anxious or upset she feels, Shinra is able to easily put all that aside when she has a conductor’s baton.
* NeverGetsDrunk: At the beginning of Beni’s route, she and Ren get into a drinking contest of sorts. One flash forward later and both have passed out while Shinra looks at them pityingly, still completely sober. In her own route, she drinks some very potent sake for hours and manages to get all the way to… mildly tipsy. Or possibly pretending to be slightly inebriated so that she can tease Ren.
* NotQuiteTheRightThing: When Yume was little, [[spoiler:Shinra’s forced composure after the death of their parents]] scared her. In response, [[spoiler:Shinra started distancing herself from Yume]] not realizing that Yume didn’t really mean it [[spoiler:and just wanted to be close to her sister. Shinra’s actions just took that tiny gulf between them and widened the gap for years.]]
* {{Ojou}}: The Kuonji sisters are three rich, sheltered girls. Shinra tries to live up to everyone’s expectations, leaving her emotionally bottled and highly unempathic.

* {{NEET}}: Though only Shinra seems interested in prodding her about it, Miyu has done next to nothing after graduating college.

That would be fine in its own way, but even robots don't live forever.]]

* MostFanficWritersAreGirls: Inside the Yume Note is terrible magical girl fanfiction.

* {{Ojou}}: The Kuonji sisters are three rich, sheltered girls. Yume has been sheltered and kept from adversity, leaving her rather weak willed and easily disheartened.
* OnlySaneMan: She’s certainly more well grounded than her sisters, but she also manages to be much more normal than the servants as well. Of course, everyone else happens to also be far more talented or hardworking than she is, leaving her to feel overshadowed and neglected as a result.



* OvershadowedByAwesome: Shinra is a brilliant conductor and Miyu has already graduated college with plans to open a restaurant chain, but Yume is just an ordinary high school girl. It's implied she does have her own talents, but she's weak willed and doesn't pursue them.

* MoneyFetish: Thanks to growing up in poverty, Beni obsesses over money money money and wants to be just like Shinra. [[spoiler:But Shinra doesn’t hoard money, she spends it on nature preservation, which makes Beni question what she’s been doing just as much as when Ren told her she’ll never be Shinra.]]



* MeaningfulName: Mihato likes to claim that since the word pigeon is in her name, she’s the very essence of peacefulness that the dove represents. Riiiiight.



* MissingMom: Ren and Mihato's mother died when Ren was born.
* MurderTheHypotenuse: Mihato likes Miyu, so she can accept her relationship with Ren. She can recognize Shinra’s good side, so she’ll step aside there too. She’ll at least step back a little when it comes to Yume even if she doesn’t accept it. Beni? Beni gets attacked in the kitchen with a knife until Ren drags her aside and makes her accept it. Maybe it’s no wonder that despite his apparent charm Ren has never even kissed a girl.
* TheNoseKnows: Mihato can also discern some rather uncomfortable things about what Ren was doing the night before with a single sniff. With much greater detail than you might expect.
* PassThePopcorn: When Shinra begins flirting with/molesting Beni in the kitchen, Mihato makes some popcorn to share with Ren.
* RomanticRunnerUp: Mihato has only one ending plus a bit of shared time in Miyu’s route, but is the only one consistently after him. She reacts to her loss with obvious depression.



* MyGreatestSecondChance: After noting once again how much Ren is like her little brother, she swears that she will protect him. She’ll protect her little brother this time for sure.
* NiceGirl: Natose and Yume, contrasting the other sisters and servants, are very friendly and outgoing, though Natose is also a little awkward.
* TheNoseKnows: When [[spoiler:Yume runs away]] Natose tracks her by scent.
* ObliviousGuiltSlinging: After Beni helps make Natose a doghouse as a joke of questionable taste, Natose thanks her for it since she doesn’t receive many gifts. Beni looks rather uncomfortable.

* MasterOfTheMixedSignal: She tends to be fairly molest-y when interacting with people, but also hates it when servants don't know their place. Building on the first thing is that she develops some sort of feelings for Ren, so she wants to have her cake and eat it too by being able to use him like a toy while also keeping him out of her affairs, which she gets called out on.



* SelectiveObliviousness: When Yume asks her sisters about relationships, Miyu simply states that she has no experience and isn't the best person to ask. Shinra loudly starts talking about the good instead, prompting Miyu to sneer at her for not being able to get a boyfriend or even admit it.

* IdiotBall: Ren goes from basically model employee to complete idiot when he starts trying to catch the ferret Yume has been looking for and carelessly smashes valuable items around the house. Afterward, he acknowledges his sheer stupidity and is nearly in tears about it because he thinks it makes him like his ass of a father.
* IKissYourFoot: Given her domineering nature, Shinra immediately requests a kiss of loyalty from Ren. The best answer is to kiss her foot. Miyu during a similar scene is pleased with the same result, but since she’s just mimicking Shinra she doesn’t care as much.
* InnocentlyInsensitive
** At one point Ren manages to distract Natose by acting like her little brother, giving puppy dog eyes and asking why she’s hurting him. Her reaction is much greater than he expected and he gets uncomfortable without knowing what the problem here is. Notably, he doesn’t try it again.
** When Ren [[spoiler:gets fired]], after he leaves the room the other servants agree that while what he said to Shinra was probably true, he was too blunt and straightforward about something that’s a sore spot for her.



* TheCharmer: Especially toward Ageha.


to:

* TheCharmer: Especially toward Ageha.

LivingEmotionalCrutch: In Natose’s route, Ren becomes her lover and her surrogate little brother, causing her to get too wrapped up in him. [[spoiler:She gets so wrapped up that she's warned she'll be fired if she doesn't do her job properly, causing her to freak out and kidnap Ren and Yume. Ren is injured and Yume nearly falls to her death before Natose realizes how crazy she's acting, causing her to leave the mansion until she grows up.]]
* LoveMartyr: Ren for the majority of Shinra’s route, which comes to a head when [[spoiler:he tries to help her with her problems regarding everyone’s expectations of her]] and she utterly snaps. Chiharu, Mihato, Miyu and even Yume all have to talk to her individually for her to realize a couple basic facts that halfway mend the problem.
** First, Ren is actually a good guy and all the servants want him to stay.
** Second, if Ren [[spoiler:gets fired, Mihato is leaving with him, which deprives Miyu of one of the friends and servants she actually has.]]
** Third, given that Shinra [[spoiler:was doing everything short of outright sex with Ren]] it’s pretty natural for someone as young as he is to have some sort of assumptions about the nature of their relationship.
** Fourth, if she’s dissatisfied with Ren’s personal service and over familiarity, she can just cut his pay and [[spoiler:dismiss him as her personal servant instead of firing him outright.]]
** Finally, after all that [[spoiler:she decides to give him another chance as her servant]] but is still pretty cold [[spoiler:until she meets his father and she and Beni help him put his past behind him.]]



* {{Kuudere}}

to:

* {{Kuudere}}IceQueen: Shinra is cold and emotionally distant even when it seems like she's being a tease.
* IndirectKiss: Shinra offers Ren a canned beverage she'd been drinking, and tells him he can finish it. When he does, she forces him to admit that he enjoyed it because it was an Indirect Kiss.
* InformedAbility: Shinra is supposedly a great conductor, but she is usually just shown waving her baton arrhythmically, though this may be due to the the animators not knowing what music was going to be played at the time of animation.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: When Shinra is a jerk, she’s usually doing it on purpose. However, [[spoiler:she eventually makes Yume cry by always ignoring her.]] She wasn’t trying to be malicious, she simply didn’t notice her behavior was upsetting and in fact thought she was doing what [[spoiler:her sister]] wanted based on an argument they had that only Shinra even remembers.
* InVinoVeritas: When Ren refers to himself as just being Shinra’s butler, she gets uncomfortable and makes a pass at him. She still can’t bring herself to be truly honest, however.
* ItAmusedMe: When Ren asks her if they should make their relationship known to everyone, Shinra declines. Why? Because it’ll be hilarious watching everyone slowly figure it out.
* JerkassRealization: As the [[LackOfEmpathy least empathic]] and most arrogant of the sisters, Shinra seems prone to these.
** When fighting with Yume, Shinra [[spoiler:holds a grudge over Yume not even remembering the cause of the fight.]] Miyu has to practically beat the source of the anger out of Shinra after Yume gets so upset [[spoiler:she flat out runs away from home.]] When she hears the story, Miyu has to painstakingly explain to Shinra that she’s holding a grudge over [[spoiler:something a little kid told her when she was upset]] and that [[spoiler:Yume not remembering]] is perfectly natural since most people, Shinra included, [[spoiler:don’t remember every trivial little thing that happened when they were little.]] Shinra’s response amounts to “So what you’re saying is that I’m the one in the wrong here? Well, shit.”
** Managed without admitting error. After a fight with Ren about how doesn’t understand the expectations she lives under, [[spoiler:Shinra fires him.]] Eventually, they make up partially, but Ren is all depressed by his own issues. When she finally figures them out, the real makeup between them boils down to Shinra going “Wow, I guess poor people have problems too, so I guess I won’t hold a grudge about you trying to help me with mine.”
* {{Kuudere}}: She's very cool and fond of teasing, but for the few people she cares about she's extremely affectionate.
* LackOfEmpathy: Shinra has real trouble figuring out how other people feel or seeing things from another person’s point of view. After making it 98% of the way through the story she finally gets enough understanding to think to herself “Waaaait, maybe Ren having a miserable expression, barely talking to anyone and constantly making mistakes in his work means something is wrong with him. Could it be that yelling at him won’t solve the problem? Could it be that I actually ''care?''”
* LethalChef: Shinra can’t cook. Her attempt was unidentifiable and nearly poisoned Miyu. To her credit, she didn’t even try giving it to the intended target before having help cooking something properly. The next attempt went a little better, at least.
* LovableSexManiax: She seems to like molesting people, especially Miyu but also Beni and Ren to some extent. Beni loves it while Ren feels conflicted. [[spoiler:She gets called out on acting like this towards him and then getting insulted when he assumes this means their relationship isn't just master and servant.]]



* IAmNotPretty: Miyu seems puzzled and slightly surprised by the idea that Mihato thinks she’s cute, though given that she’s highly prone to flattery she eats up that sort of comment anyway. Then again, given her vanity it could just be that she thinks she’s much too mature to be cute instead of beautiful.
* IllGirl: Miyu is said to be in perfect physical health, but every now and then she feels faint and insists on being alone. [[spoiler:Her physical health really is fine, but when she remembers the death of her parents she needs to seclude herself.]]
* InsaneTrollLogic: Horses were popular in England! Surely if Miyu commands the horse to slow down in English it will comply.
* IResembleThatRemark: Ren shoos Miyu from the kitchen by saying it’s a place for adults to work, much to her irritation. He then distracts her successfully with a piece of candy. Actually, Miyu is easily distracted by candy or pats to the head.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Miyu likes acting distant, arrogant and dignified, but she’s actually very supportive and the one to cheer up Ren after he thinks he failed to pass the preliminary period.



* LovableSexManiac: Far more subtle than Shinra, but she's apparently a huge shotacon.



* IJustWantToBeSpecial

to:

* IJustWantToBeSpecialIJustWantToBeSpecial: Yume feels depressed at how much smarter and more accomplished her sisters seem to be and wants to find similar talents for herself. That said, it’s implied that she does have her own talents but simply doesn’t work hard enough.
* IndirectKiss: Yume shares her icecream with Ren and then gets embarrassed afterward.
* InLoveWithLove: Yume asks to go out with Ren mostly because she doesn’t have a boyfriend and the idea interests her slightly. Plus, she wants people to stop bugging her to get one. She has no idea what’s going on when she actually does feel a little jealous that Ren has a good opinion of Ageha.

* InstantRunesIAmNotPretty: When Ren asks Natose out she’s absolutely astonished. Why is he asking her out instead of someone cute like Yume, elegant like Shinra, clever like Miyu, strong willed as Beni or at least his sister?
* InstantRunes: Natose has them along with her BattleAura while guarding the house at night, just to show [[RuleOfCool how awesome she is]].
* IsItSomethingYouEat: When Natose tries cheering up Yume once again, Shinra asks her if she actually has any idea what she just said. Is it Chinese cuisine of some sort? Is Kumamoto some dish involving bears?



* IfYouEverDoAnythingToHurtHer: As her surrogate father of sorts, the colonel tells Ren that if he makes Beni cry or doesn’t value her enough he’s going to pay for it.



* LoveConfession: Confesses to Beni in Natose's route but gets turned down. It encourages Ren to try with Natose, though.



* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Fittingly for an invention of Miyu's, Deniro is harsh and arrogant, but after Ren gets on his good side he’s very supportive. He also loves Miyu dearly [[spoiler:and values her future more than his own life. Though he did make a backup of his memory, despite it undermining the point he was making.]]

* GratuitousEnglish: Apparently cowed by Shinra’s intelligence, Ren tries to cheer himself up by calling Beni ‘Red Girl’ and explaining that it’s the English translation of her name. She’s not impressed.



* GiverOfLameNames: To Ren’s surprise, Shinra’s naming sense is about as bad as Yume’s.
* GoodPeopleHaveGoodSex: It applies to all of the girls except Shinra at first because she treats Ren like a toy. When she stops being so harsh and emotionally domineering and admits she cares it does improve, though.

* HeavySleeper: Yume sleeps heavily enough that Ren can pick her up, set her down on her feet, help her get dressed and splash water on her face without her realizing it’s him.
* HerCodenameWasMarySue: In the Yume Note is a story about her and her sidekick, Shinra, who dotes on Yume endlessly but has to be corrected by the clever Yume. She’s the most popular girl in town, Shinra envies her celebrity status and Beni wishes she could be like Yume instead of such a minor character. I guess now we know why she didn’t want anyone to read it.
* HoldingItForAFriend: When Ren walks in on Natose and Yume investigating a porn magazine, he simply waits and watches them for a few minutes until they finally notice him. Yume tries to cover it up by telling him it’s Mii’s book, but his response amounts to “Yeah, but you’re the one that has it now.”



* GoodPeopleHaveGoodSex: She and Ren keep messing up on TheirFirstTime, but they're trying desperately to make the other person happy so it ends up rather sweet anyway.
* HairTriggerTemper: She's rather easy to irritate, so she and Ren spend most of their time somewhere between flirting and trying to kill each other.
* HeroWorshipper: Beni idolizes Shinra and wants to be an elegant woman just like her. [[spoiler:However, she doesn't really understand who Shinra is and just tries copying her surface mannerisms; In truth, Shinra spends a lot of money on conservation efforts rather than being the rich celebrity Beni took her for.]]
* HeyYou: As far as Beni is concerned, Ren has no name. He’s either You, Manservant or if he’s unlucky, just Idiot. When she stops, she pretends to herself it’s just to manipulate him.



* GracefulLoser: Mihato quietly claims that if Ren is happy, she’ll step aside for Shinra. Then she mutters under her breath that if she gets half a chance she’s going to take him back. Such grace.
* HollywoodToneDeaf: Mihato’s singing is completely terrible. Not necessarily because the tone is bad, but because it causes some kind of bizarre echoing effect. Also, bad lyrics.



* GeniusDitz: Though otherwise fairly ignorant, Natose knows a lot about gardening.
* HeavySleeper: Natose frequently wakes up late for the role call.
* HeelRealization: When [[spoiler:Natose kidnaps Ren and Yume]] she ignores everything they say at first [[spoiler:due to her obsession with keeping them safe]], so when they have the chance they run away. While chasing after them, she realizes that all she’s done [[spoiler:is put them in even more danger when before they were perfectly safe.]]
* HeroicSelfDeprecation: Natose considers herself unintelligent, unattractive and untalented at everything that isn’t fighting or gardening.
