* AchillesHeel: She has at least three weak spots:
** On a more practical level, fire is the only way to prevent her cells from regenerating and creating clones of herself;
** On a more personal level, she can be “defeated”, either by simply ignoring her (the AttentionWhore’s worst nightmare) or by calling her a “monster” (her BerserkButton, which for some reason makes her lose control over her body)

* TragicVillain: From a certain point of view, anyway. While Tomie is evil and atrocious beyond redemption the story makes it very clear she is trapped in a truly horrific cycle of resurrection she has little to no control over. Being surrounded by slavering, crazed followers who inevitably dismember her quite likely robbed her of the ability to mature or develop as a person. What's especially tragic is that if Tomie were just a regular human instead of an immortal HiveMind abomination, she probably would've been a far different girl than the monster she is now.

* DidntSeeThatComing: As a way of mocking Isumizawa and getting her into trouble, Tomie has her take a bunch of pictures, even telling the girl that she can put them on flyers and spread them all over the school if she wanted to. So she ''does'', and that's when Tomie realizes that cameras can [[GlamorFailure reveal her true nature]].

* AntiHero: At first her intentions for protecting Tomie-Ayaka are fairly pure: Ayaka's her sister, and they need Ryo's support. However, after years of trying to keep Ayaka from being killed only to get constant belittlement, even to the point of being reduced to a servant, she finally subscribes to Ryo's line of thinking and agrees that Tomie-Ayaka deserves to suffer.
* {{Protectorate}}: After hearing Ryo's story and learning the truth about her sister, Yasuko is charged by Ryo to make certain that Ayaka-Tomie won't be killed by the other Tomies' enthralled assassins. In exchange, Ryo promises to look after her family by supplying them with money and moving them when they need it.
* SelfMadeOrphan: She doesn't kill her mother (Tomie's assassins did that), but when her drunk, unstable father finally gives in to his urge to molest Tomie-Ayaka, Yasuko stabs him to death.
* YoungerThanTheyLook: Thanks to the stress and effort involved in keeping Ayaka-Tomie from getting assassinated and dealing with their alcoholic father, at the age of twenty-two Yasuko apparently looks rather older. Ayaka-Tomie says she looks forty, but Tomie's...kind of a jerk.

* OffscreenVillainDarkMatter: Although he was a successful male model roughly a decade ago (give or take), he hasn't exactly been working in a while. Somehow, though, he has the funds to support a family of three for years, even with Ayaka likely having the same expensive tastes as other Tomies, and said family having to move all over Japan numerous times. Plus, he has the means to do things like make certain that dead Tomies are utterly incinerated, or encasing live Tomies in concrete.

* HealingFactor: Each instance of Tomie heals very quickly, even after their apparent death. It seems that eating flesh or being buried in the earth helps accelerate this. One Tomie, as she's dying, asks to be buried and regenerates from her stab wounds in a day. "Little Finger" indicates that she can control this factor to some extent as the fingers deliberately left "Pinky" in a partially-developed state in order to get sympathy from [[ILoveYouBecauseICantControlYou the protagonist]], who fully healed after the ploy worked.

* BlatantLies: She's actually not too great at constructing cover stories (at one point she claims to be a survivor from a plane crash when something like that would've made the news), but all it takes is for people to drop their suspicions for even a moment for her to worm her way in.

* MoreThanMindControl: She does appear to have supernatural compulsive abilities, but at least one story ("Little Finger") shows that if you keep your heart closed to her and stay suspicious she can't hook you. She's so attractive that her appearance alone is often enough to get people to drop their guard. Sympathy also works. If she doesn't naturally end up in a position which would elicit sympathy or compassion after being killed, she's pretty good at engineering situations.
