History HiddenDepths / VisualNovels

** Junko has misgivings about her single-minded devotion to her dream and a ''massive'' crush on Makoto.[[spoiler: Well, Mukuro Ikusaba always wondered if she could do something different with her life besides being someone's soldier, and has the crush on Makoto. Junko's real hidden depths are that she's a sadomasochistic maniac.]]

** The reason Nekomaru is a coach instead of an athlete is because he suffers from a heart condition that prevents him from actually participating in sports himself and will probably kill him young; he coaches in memory of a friend with a similar condition who died before he could see his team succeed. And on a lighter note, he's probably so obsessed with [[ToiletHumor defacation]] because constipation is often a side effect of heart medication.
** Miu's insufferability, hammy perverted antics, and overall tactlessness are an attempt to cover up that she is, in reality, a lonely ShrinkingViolet with an InferioritySuperiorityComplex and severe abandonment issues. Despite her efforts to portray herself as the biggest slut in the school, she wants actual love more than just sex, insisting on going on a date first and even baking some treats for Shuichi (Shuichi himself notes that the baked goods are of very professional quality). [[spoiler:Keebo's posthumous assessment of Miu's personality is that she hid a childlike innocence beneath her crass persona]], and Haruka Ishida, her Japanese voice actress, describes Miu as a fundamentally adorable girl who has very extreme sides. Miu also showcases a tenderness when being Monotaro's "mom".

** Byakuya Togami is indeed a haughty prick, but his main drive to succeed is in respect for his half-siblings who he competed against. He can't stand people saying his talent was just being a UpperClassTwit because that would mean they ''lost'' to an UpperClassTwit, while there's no shame in losing to the absolute ''best''.

** Mondo Oowada is currently a delinquent biker, but he wants to be a carpenter so he can build things rather than destroying them. Also, [[HeroesLoveDogs he once had a Maltese dog as a pet]].[[spoiler: He also has severe survivor's guilt and inadequacy issues relating to his brother, and respects Chihiro's strength in being willing to confront his flaws.]]

** Gundham's LargeHam attitude hides that he's a kindhearted boy who genuinely loves his animals.
