* CatsAreMean: Tama's possessiveness puts even Inugami to shame.



* DarkAndTroubledPast: There are occasional hints that whatever happened in Kohina's life that caused her to live alone in a fairly large house, call herself a doll, and become so invested in curses and divination, it's not pretty.
* {{Determinator}}: When Jimeko sets her mind to something, she won't give up. Deconstructed, however, in that setting out to put a vase of flowers on Kohina's desk every day to bully her only hurt her wallet, and finding out what she'd been doing only caused Kohina to worry Jimeko wasn't looking after herself more.
* DidYouJustScamCthulhu: Kohina is more than capable of tricking her caretakers and other ancient spirits on a regular basis.
* DirtyOldMan: Shigaraki will hit on a pretty young woman the second he sees her. Even if that young woman is [[GenderBender Inugami.]]
