The two Yuu's also differ both in personality and the relationship that they had with the cast. ''Counting Sheep'''s Yuu is optimistic and her airheadedness garnered worry from the cast who eventually get pulled to her due to warming up to her optimism and eventually form a polyamory with her, while ''black or white'''s Yuu is a snarky cynical JerkWithAHeartofGold who is far more guarded due to awareness of her own situation and doesn't trust easily, so she had a strictly platonic relationship with a majority of the cast while those that ''do'' like her romantically can be counted by one hand.

Changed line(s) 11 (click to see context) from:
* HeroicBastard: Yuu in this story is [[spoiler:revealed to be a child born out of wedlock who was RaisedByGrandparents until they died from old age and suffered under ParentalNeglect under her paternal family. However, that doesn't stop Yuu from being cynical and even when brought to Twisted Wonderland, she still remains a heroic person.]]
to:
* AbusiveParents: [[spoiler:Yuu's Paternal family are the neglectful kind, [[TruthInTelevision due to the stigma that illegitimate children had in Japanese society]]. As a result, they are emotionally neglectful of her when they brought her in after her grandparents died and the neglect extends to Yuu's half-siblings who bully her in return.]]
* AmnesiacHero: Yuu starts out without any memory of her old life before being brought to Twisted Wonderland. With the author mentioning that this is because both "Yuu" and the original soul's memories and life are on the process of merging into one.

* RunningGag:
** Yuu unintentionally giving mixed messages through her interactions with some of the non-human students such as biting Leona's ears, an action considered as flirting to beastfolks.
* SpiritualAntithesis: With ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/25395727/chapters/61584106 black or white]]'', the story that inspired ''Counting Sheep''. Both stories had a similar concept of an AmnesiacHero Yuu who are both TrappedInAnotherWorld. However, that's where the similarities end. ''black or white'' is a DeconstructionFic to the canonical Yuu's situation in general and gears to a Shounen-esque take of fan-novelizations of Twisted Wonderland, while ''Counting Sheep'' is generally positive in tone and more uplifting in contrast.

-->How long does it take for a dream to stop being a dream? About as long as it takes you to notice the sheep you've wrangled into your flock.\\
