History Manga / RebirthTheLunaticTaker

* FanDisservice: The Angels are voluptuous, naked and tend to fondle themselves while ''stealing the soul'' of the victims they have their [[ShesGotLegs nice legs]] wrapped around. Then they transform and become giant, large-breasted gargoyles. No, not like ''those'' WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}. Like the ones meant to ward of evil by way of sheer ugliness.

* BattleCouple: More like Battle Siblings.
* BeneathTheMask: Underneath that cute smile... well just read on to find out.
* BigBad: [[spoiler: Ryusuke Ishigami, Life Inc's CEO]]

* CombatPragmatist: Ayaka.
* CriticalExistenceFailure
* CuteBruiser: Natsuhi is an amateur boxer. [[spoiler: Comes in handy when she finds a pair of earrings..]].
%%* DeathGlare: Ayaka has mastered the art.

* FanService
* {{Freudian Trio}}: Ayaka represents the Id, Renji the Superego, and Natsuhi is the Ego.
* {{Gorn}}
* {{Idiot Hair}}
* KickTheDog: More like drop in the trash carelessly.
* [[KnightTemplarBigBrother Knight Templar Big Sister]]: If you have any interaction with Reiji, you are going to die. It's inevitable. The only question is how long can Ayaka put off killing you.

* LosingYourHead

* {{Murder The Hypotenuse}}
* OurAngelsAreDifferent: For starters, they want to eat your soul.

* PowerNullifier: Reiji. It fits his [[ActualPacifist nature]]
* RedEyesTakeWarning

* SlasherSmile: Nearly all the takers have one.

* SuicidalPacifism: Reiji.

* [[spoiler: TheBadGuyWins]]
* TheUnfettered: Ayaka, which actually gives her the element of surprise against other Takers.

* {{Yandere}}: Ayaka
* YouKillItYouBoughtIt

* YouGottaHaveBlueHair

* BloodSport: The characters are basically living in an MMORPG, but instead of the fun of LARP, they have to deal with the threat of [[CriticalExistenceFailure dying horribly when they run out life points]] or being manipulated by players that constantly remind them that their lives are forfeit [[ButThouMust if they are uncooperative]].

The manga was later followed by Manga/SaiTaker, an alternative setting/sequel, although the manga is followed by Re:Birth: The Life Taker.

Not to be confused with ''{{Rebirth}}'' which has no relation to this story.

* DeathGlare: Ayaka has mastered [[http://www.mangareader.net/rebirth-the-lunatic-taker/10/19 this]] [[http://www.mangareader.net/1588-56183-12/rebirth-the-lunatic-taker/chapter-2.html little]] [[http://www.mangareader.net/1588-49557-62/rebirth-the-lunatic-taker/chapter-1.html art]].

* {{Reality Ensues}}: Think you're going to stop a mugger Renji? [[spoiler: Of course he has a knife.]]

* XMeetsY The manga is ''Manga/BattleRoyale'' meets the author's previous works, particularly ''Manga/BlackGod'' and ''Manga/{{Freezing}}''.

Other works written by [[Creator/LimDallYoung Dal-Young Im]]:

+ TheLegendOfMaian

''Re:Birth: The Lunatic Taker'' is a manga by the manhwa team Im Dal Young and Lee Soo Hyun. Like previous series by Im Dal Young (''Manga/{{Freezing}}'', ''Manga/BlackGod''), the series male protagonist takes a backseat in favor of having a strong female lead fighting most of the battles.

Other works written by Dal-Young Im:

+ Manga/KuroKami

** The mangaka practically advertises his manga ZeroTheBeginningOfTheCoffin in chapter 14

Re:Birth: The Lunatic Taker is a manga by the manhwa team Im Dal Young and Lee Soo Hyun. Like previous series by Im Dal Young (''Manga/{{Freezing}}'', ''Manga/KuroKami''), the series male protagonist takes a backseat in favor of having a strong female lead fighting most of the battles.

* WholePlotReference: Contracts, limited lifespan that requires you to keep killing soul-sucking monsters to stay alive, breakdowns and insanity. A dispute regarding sticking to one's principles while desperate. [[PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Yeah, just like this.]]

+ KuroKami

Re:Birth: The Lunatic Taker is a manga by the manhwa team Im Dal Young and Lee Soo Hyun. Like previous series by Im Dal Young (Freezing, KuroKami), the series male protagonist takes a backseat in favor of having a strong female lead fighting most of the battles.

* {{Author Appeal}}: Just like in {{Freezing}} this series contains a meek young male protected by a big-busted older sister. Oh and everyone is wearing a school uniform.
** Like in {{Freezing}} and AflameInferno the {{PantyFight|er}}ing in no way impedes the plentiful violence. Closeups of panties or bare breasts are likely to show a limb that has been ripped off or an excruciating impalement.

* {{Expy}}: Ayaka, Reiji, and Natsuhi fight the giant, female-looking Angels / [[{{Freezing}} Satellizer, Kazuya, and Rana fight the giant, female-looking Novas]]. Ayaka/Satellizer manifest blades while Natsuhi/Rana use their fists, Reiji/Kazuya keeps them in check, and the Angels/Novas tower over all. Alternately, [[spoiler: Ayaka is Louis but with more self-control]].

* XMeetsY The manga is ''Manga/BattleRoyale'' meets the author's previous works, particularly KuroKami and Freezing.

* WholePlotReference: Contracts, limited lifespan that requires you to keep killing monsters to stay alive, breakdowns and insanity. [[PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Yeah, just like this.]]
