* TrueArtIsIncomprehensible: Invoked, with Youngho considering art subjective, and that's why he tends to slack off in art class. Subverted, when it turns out he's wrong and slacking off gives him a bad art grade.

!! ''The Coma'' contains the following Tropes

[[folder: Tropes Applying To Both Games]]

* ChekhovsArmy: All of the characters named in the beginning of the first name play a bigger part later on. Aside from Yaesol being a mixture of an aloof mentor and veteran at exploring The Coma, Miss Song is the person the monster takes its form after, and the schoolmate Taehoon ends up being the previous victim to The Coma.

[[folder: Tropes Applying To The Coma 2: Vicious Sisters]]

* YearInsideHourOutside: Mina mentions that the day Youngho fell into a coma occured three weeks ago. [[spoiler:Youngho]] mentions that in The Coma, it's been ''years''.

* MacGuffin: The Moon Incense is an item that is said to be required to stop Vicious Sister, and can only be wielded by shamanka. [[spoiler:Mina obtains it from Sumi Park through Taejo's Mirror late in the game.]]
* MultipleEndings

** [[BittersweetEnding Ending B]]: Obtained by having only the Blood Ruby or the Holy Water of Seperation or neither in the inventory prior to the final battle. [[spoiler:The Moon Incense isn't purified at all, or only slightly, depending on what items are in the inventory. Youngho gets freed from the eldritch vines, but it's Yaesol that rips the amulet away from Vicious Sister. Mina stabs her. Vicious Sister is defeated, but Youngho ends up dying. Mina rekindles her friendship with Da-hyun, but is mourning for Youngho and Yaesol is seen visiting his grave.]]

** The achievements for getting Mina's maximum health lowered four times are all named after lines from ''Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail'''s scene with the Black Knight. '' 'Tis But A Scratch'', ''I've Had Worse'', ''It's Just A Flesh Wound'', and ''I'm invincible'', respectively.

* AnAxeToGrind: Dark Song wields a fireaxe in the last section of the game.

* KnifeNut
** Dark Song starts off wielding a box-cutter, but later upgrades to a kitchen knife.
** Yaesol turns out to be carrying a knife on her, too, when she saves Youngho late in the game.

* StandardStatusEffects: The protagonists can get afflicted with Bleeding and Poison. Bleeding can cause damage over time or lower the max health until it stops, which usually requires a bandage or waiting it out. Poison will slowly cause damage, unless it's healed with an antidote.

* TheCanKickedHim: An unnamed girl's twiching shadow corpse was stuffed down one of the toilets. She's not visibly injured, so it's likely she was drowned via swirlie.

* TentacleHead: What Dark Song's final transformation has instead of hair.

* VoiceOfTheLegon: Youngho mentions that [[spoiler:the possessed Seho]] speaks this way.

** Hiding from Dark Song includes pressing buttons in a certain order to not be found out in the current hiding spot.

''The Coma: Cutting Class'' is a 2D SurvivalHorror game by Devespresso Games. It was [[http://store.steampowered.com/app/402630/ released]] on UsefulNotes/{{Steam}} on October 2015, and an updated edition was released on Website/GogDotCom and UsefulNotes/PlayStation4 in 2017.

You play as Youngho, a Korean freshman at Sehwa High. After falling asleep while working on the first exam of his finals, Youngho wakes up to find that night has fallen. He is alone in the school.

Well... not ''[[ImplacableMan completely]]'' ''[[SuperPersistentPredator alone]]''.

Now Youngho must evade a mysterious killer and find a way out of Sehwa.

A sequel ''VideoGame/TheComa2ViciousSisters'' was released November 8th, 2019.

!! This game includes examples of:
%%* {{Adorkable}}: Youngho and Seho.
* AdultsAreUseless: Mister Ma. [[spoiler: His public image at Sehwa High School is that of a well-intentioned SternTeacher and [[PsychologistTeacher counselor]] who is determined to stop [[BullyHunter bullying at the school]]. It turns out that he is actually inept at actually changing the bullies. The school bullies get to victimize others under the pretense of "peer-to-peer mediation".]]
* AllLoveIsUnrequited: [[spoiler: Both Myung-gil and Seho love Mina, but she does not like either of them. In fact, it's all but stated that she's in love with Youngho, who has a crush on Ms. Song]]
%%* AloofDarkHairedGirl: Yaesol.
* AnAxeToGrind: [[spoiler: Coma!Miss Song wields a fireaxe at the last section of the game]].

%%* AsleepInClass: Youngho personally experiences this in his classroom due to cramming for his finals.
%%* AssholeVictim: [[spoiler: Myung-gil is actually being tormented by Seho through the Shade's magic. The bully endures a [[BlessedWithSuck curse]] that forces his body to [[DeniedFoodAsPunishment rapidly starve.]]]]
* ArtifactOfDoom: [[spoiler:Seho's flute, otherwise known as [[MacGuffin The Relic]]. This instrument is what allowed Seho to control the Shade as his personal "succubus". Early in the game, he actually loses the Relic, and the Shade regains possession of this object from Youngho. It is also revealed through several notes that there are more Relics within the school.]]
%%* AxCrazy: [[spoiler: Coma!Miss Song.]]
* BackTracking: A main part of the game will be searching for items within areas of the school that you've already checked.
* BigDamnHeroes: [[spoiler: Yaesol saves Youngho from Coma!Miss Young near the end of the game.]]
* BittersweetEnding: The true ending is [[spoiler: Youngho escaping the Coma, and as a result of fixing things in there, not only does he re-claim his spot as the 3rd best student in class (as Seho was actually using the Coma to steal his work), but he passes his finals with ease. Unfortunately, Yaesol reports to her superiors that even though they managed to find the culprit (Seho), the Shade has the flute relic, and Youngho is now seen as a possible asset for the Vigilantes. An unspecified time later he ends up in another coma, albeit possibly on behalf of the Vigilantes, and Mina, distraught but determined to save him takes the pendant relic, unaware that Seho is stalking her.]]
%%* BlackMagic: [[spoiler: The Shade's abilities, full-stop]].
%%* BloodyHandprint: Youngho will find plenty of these within the school.
%%* BoyMeetsGhoul: Heavily implied in [[spoiler: Seho's notes regarding his relationship with the Shade.]]
* TheBully: Myung-gil. [[spoiler: He also antagonizes Youngho in The Coma of Sehwa High, where he blocks a hall until you give him his favourite food from the cafeteria. If you refuse to give the food to him, he will attack you once, and damages you for ''3 hearts''. Thankfully, he disappears afterwards.]]
* TheCanKickedHim: An unnamed girl's twitching corpse was stuffed down one of the bathroom toilets. She's not visibly injured, so it's likely someone drowned her via swirlie.
* CastingAShadow: [[spoiler: The Shade is able to use shadows of real people to do her bidding.]]
* ChekhovsArmy: ''All'' named characters in the prologue- Miss Song, the teacher; Seho, the geeky friend; Yaesol, the engimatic girl; Myung-gil, the school bully; Mina, the childhood friend; and Taehoon, the attempted suicide victim- return later in the storyline. [[spoiler: The teacher is a crazed killer, the geeky friend is a budding EvilOverlord, the engimatic girl explores ''hell'' in her spare time, the school bully is an attempted killer, the childhood friend is a phantom, and the suicide victim ended up on the wrong end of an ArtifactOfDoom.]]

* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: [[spoiler: If Youngho heals Shadow!Mina with a First Aid Kit, she will appear again to help him get rid of Shadow!Myung-gil (who's blocking the North Building's First Floor).]]
%%* BookEnds: If you obtain endings 1-4, [[spoiler: Youngho suffers a similar fate as Taehoon: Being left in a critical medical condition and driven away from Sehwa High by an ambulance.]]
* CastFromStamina: Youngho can do a tactical roll or hold his breath as long as he has enough Stamina.
* TheCavalry: When Youngho is cornered by [[spoiler: [[EvilDoppelganger "Miss Song"]] near the end of the game, Yaesol intervenes and gives the protagonist enough time to escape]].
* ChekhovsGun: Before class, Youngho finds a pendant belonging to Ms. Song. He picks it up, and plans to give it to her later. [[spoiler:While in the Coma, the pendant transforms into a cameo locket, and it is his only key out of the dimension]].
%%* ChildhoodFriends: Youngho and Mina.
* CollapsingLair: Near the end of the game, [[spoiler: Coma!Sehwa High]] starts to collapse and crumble into nothing.
* CuriosityIsACrapshoot: The events of the game were jump-started by [[spoiler: Seho's curiosity towards a mysterious girl (who is revealed to be the Shade).]]
* CynicalMentor: Yaesol actively explores the Coma- the dark side of humanity made manifest-and has seen a lot of people die (by [[DrivenToSuicide their own hands]] or another's). As a result, she's rather cavalier about both. But beneath all the snark, she is genuinely trying to help Youngho.
* DarkWorld: Referred to as [[TitleDrop ''The Coma'']]. Youngho is trapped in the Coma of Sehwa High School. While not the same place literally, it is a spiritual reflection of the school's dark side. [[spoiler:The destruction of [=Coma!Sehwa=] does not cause the actual demolition of its counterpart in the real world.]] In the Coma, Sehwa is outwardly corrupted by a dark presence: records of bullying (often written by the victims), and other pieces of confidental information are pinned to its walls. The school's water is tainted, many of the mirrors are shattered, and shadowy parodies of people stalk its halls.
%%* DarkIsEvil: [[spoiler: The Shade.]]
%%* DarkIsNotEvil: [[spoiler: The Noteman is neutral to Youngho.]]
* DeanBitterman: Principal Lee is revealed to be quite a stickler. [[spoiler: She wants to cut down on the school budgets for the music and PE departments.]]
* DissonantSerenity: Justified and downplayed. Yaesol is much calmer about their situation than Youngho, but she's not inhuman or emotionless- just more experienced. She actively cultivates this mindset because it's an effective survival mechanism.
* DrivenToSuicide: Taehoon, as a result of Myung-gil's bullying. It's unclear if he survived the attempt. [[spoiler: In the notes found near the end of the game, it is revealed that the Shade was originally a Sehwa High student who committed suicide to escape from the pressures of life.]]
* DownerEnding: [[spoiler: In four endings, Youngho fails to escape the Coma and is left in a critical condition after experiencing a seizure in real life. He's brought out of Sehwa High in an ambulance.]]
* DudeMagnet: At least three guys are attracted to Mina. Unfortunately, most of them are assholes.
%%* EldritchAbomination: [[spoiler: The Shade and her puppet version of Miss Song.]]
%%* EscapeFromTheCrazyPlace: The Coma version of Sehwa High is filled with [[spoiler: mysterious bloodstains, toxic vines, and corpses. And all its windows and exit doors are locked.]]
%%* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: [[spoiler: The Shade, The Killer and the Noteman]]
%%* EvilCounterpart: [[spoiler: The Shade creates an [[EvilDoppelganger entity that looks like]] [[HotTeacher Miss Song]]]].
* EvilMakesYouMonstrous: The evil shown within the Coma leads to the doppelgangers' appearances getting worse. [[spoiler:"Miss Song"]]'s appearance goes from slightly disheveled hair to turning into a weird abomination with teeth for eyes, tentacle-like hair and unnaturally long arms. Myung-Gil's Coma version has a giant, black hole for a face.
%%* EvilOverlord: [[spoiler: Seho]] saw himself as this after taking control of [[spoiler: the Shade]].
* FetchQuest: [[spoiler: The Shade]] won't stop blocking a particular hallway in the Main Building until Youngho brings her Seho's recorder. The player has the choice of completing several optional side-quests that will affect the game's ending.
%%* FourEyesZeroSoul: [[spoiler: Seho's true nature.]]
%%* FourIsDeath: [[spoiler: As the story progresses, Coma!Miss Song has 4 different physical forms.]]
%%* HandwrapsOfAwesome: Yaesol's bandaged hands.
* HellIsThatNoise: [[spoiler: Miss Song's horrific screeching noises, her menacing footsteps (when she's walking or running), and the terrifying chase music that plays when she spots Youngho. When you enter Sehwa High's North Building, the background music gets even more demented.]]
* HeartsAreHealth: Youngho's health meter is represented by five chalk-drawn hearts.
%%* HeroOfAnotherStory: [[spoiler: Yaesol.]]
%%* HiddenEyes: The reason Youngho doesn't realize initially that there's something off about [[spoiler: "Ms. Song"]].
* HidingInABathroomStall: Youngho can hide in bathroom stalls, though some hallways also have closets he can use.
* HotForTeacher: Youngho is attracted to his teacher, Ms. Song. He fantasizes about dating her.
* HotTeacher: Youngho remarks how Sehwa's male student body believe that Miss Song looks like a KPop idol.
%%* HospitalHottie: Miss Nah.
%%* HunterOfMonsters: It's implied that [[spoiler: Yaesol and her fellow Ghost Vigilantes hunt Shades]].
* HyperactiveMetabolism: Youngho's health can be restored through consuming burgers, chips, chocolate bars, and soda. As for Stamina, it will gradually restored over time, and it can be refilled by drinking water bottles. [[SpotOfTea Drinking tea]] will increase how fast Youngho's endurance will regenerate for a limited time. [[MustHaveCaffeine Canned coffee]] will temporarily grant infinite energy to Youngho. Most of these must be bought from vending machines, but these resources can be also found by scavenging from the school.
* InfiniteFlashlight: Youngho's flashlight never has to be recharged or be given new batteries.
* IHaveYouNowMyPretty: [[spoiler:Seho commanded the Shade to bring Mina to him. The resulting...''thing'' was [[UncannyValley not Mina]], much to Seho's disappointment.]]
%%* ILied: [[spoiler: After Youngho gives the Relic to the Shade, this is her response when she is asked to let Seho go.]]
* ImplacableMan: [[spoiler: The demented version of Miss Young will chase down Youngho until he runs out of stamina. There's absolutely no way to fight back against her; he can only run and hide to evade her.]]
* TheInternetIsForPorn: It turns out that [[spoiler: Headmaster James Mott]] was looking up porn on his computer at Sehwa. When Youngho manages to access his computer, there are two suspicious images that appear on Mott's monitor, which have been heavily blurred with Pixellation.
* KleptomaniacHero: Youngho has to scavenge through the school's numerous hallways and rooms to find the objects he can use. It's the only alternative to having to pay for the goods that you need from vending machines.
* KnifeNut: [[spoiler:[[EvilDoppelganger Miss Song]] wields a box-cutter at first, but later upgrades to a kitchen knife. Yaesol is also revealed to carry her own box-cutter when she attacks Miss Song near the end of the game, in order to buy time for Youngho to escape Coma!Sehwa.]]
* LimitedLoadout: Youngho can only carry a total of 24 consumable items in the 2015 ''Cutting Class'' edition. The backpack space was further reduced to just 'six' item slots in the 2017 ''Recut'' edition.
* LoveMakesYouEvil: [[spoiler: Seho's infatuation with Mina played a significant role in his desire to use the Shade's powers for his own selfish agenda.]]
* MessyHair: Miss Song usually has her hair styled in a neat fashion during the day. When Youngho wanders outside his classroom after waking up (as he fell asleep during his finals), he immediately encounters Miss Song. For any keen players, they will notice that her hairstyle is [[MessyHair slightly messier]] than [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness usual]]. [[spoiler: Aside from her eerie EmptyEyes, the hair is another indicator that this "Miss Song" is an imposter. Her hair also gets even more [[MadnessMakeover dishevelled]] as the story progresses.]]
%%* MsFanservice: Miss Song.
* MsExposition: Yaesol calmly explains to Youngho that he is not dreaming, there really is a killer on the loose, and how to escape the nightmare world.
* MultipleEndings: The game has 5 different endings, though 4 are the same ending, with minor differences that depend on whether the player has or has not completed certain sidequests.
* MundaneUtility: Changes made in Coma!Sehwa ripple into the real world. This fact could revolutionize dimensional theory. [[spoiler: Seho mainly uses it...to cheat academically. (To be fair, though, he ''was'' just testing the phenomenon's existence at that time.) Youngho also has the choice of using the Coma in order to change his grades.]]
* MurderousThighs: [[spoiler: When the Shade attacks Seho, she immediately wraps her thighs around his neck.]]
* MysteriousInformant: [[spoiler:Yasuho and The Noteman provide plenty of optional written notes for Youngho to read.]]
%%* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Mr. "Mad Dog" Ma
* NightmareFace: [[spoiler: Coma!Myung-gil has a huge gaping mouth and no face.]]
* NoOntologicalInertia: [[spoiler: Sehwa High in the Coma starts to self-destruct as the Shade grows more desperate to hunt down Youngho]].
* OfficeRomance: [[spoiler: Miss Nah and Headmaster Mott are in a secret, sexual relationship. Things seem to be shadier than that, though, as Miss Nah started the relationship because she needed money to pay her debts, and Mott offered to pay for it, but turns out to be controlling and scaring her, though she can't seem to end the relationship.]]
%%* OpaqueNerdGlasses: Seho's pair of stereotypical nerd spectacles.
* OneWingedAngel: [[spoiler: The Killer transforms into a [[PrehensileHair tentacle-haired]], [[CreepilyLongArms elongnated-limbed]] parody of Miss Song during the final section of the game. At this point, she's quite aggressive, and can nearly OneHitKill Youngho with her fire-axe.]]

** [[spoiler: Referred to as 'shadows' (not the same as [[Franchise/ShinMegamiTenseiPersona that kind of ''Shadows'']], but pretty close), they are reflections of people from the real world. During the course of the game, Youngho will encounter shadows of multiple students within Coma!Sehwa High. One example of the shadows that Youngho will encounter is Mina's shadow. This copy was brought into existence by the Shade on Seho's request. Her true nature is ambiguous: she's extremely pale, and both Seho and Youngho believe she can't be the real Mina. Interestingly, the reflection possesses the original's memories, and is able to feel emotions as well as physical pain.]]
** [[spoiler: There's also Shades, which are pale human-esque entities. The Shade (the game's main antagonist), and the Noteman are revealed to be part of this species. According to the Noteman, the Shades originated from the Coma dimension. They are capable of independent thought and choice. They mainly keep to themselves, and are not fond of human trespassers.]]
* OverworkedSleep: At the beginning of the game, Youngho fell asleep while cramming for his finals. When he finally arrives in his classroom to do his exams, he loses consciousness due to his exhaustion.
* PowerUpgradingDeformation: As the plot progresses, [[spoiler:Coma!Ms. Song]] becomes less human, while becoming correspondingly faster and stronger. After Youngho unlocks the North Building, her eyes are replaced by ''teeth'' (replaced with BlackEyesOfEvil in the Recut version). She eventually transforms into a humanoid Eldritch Abomination with [[PrehensileHair tentacle hair]], and she can nearly OneHitKill Youngho with her attacks.
* OxygenMeter: Youngho's Stamina meter doubles as an oxygen meter. [[spoiler: He has to turn off his flashlight in order to crouch down and hold his breath. When the meter is full, it gives Youngho enough air to [[HiddenInPlainSight hide in plain sight]] to avoid Coma!Miss Song within an area until she disappears.]]
* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: [[spoiler: In 4 of the 5 endings, Mina will scold Myung-gil for his behavior in the real world.]]
* RejectionAffection: [[spoiler: Seho refuses to give up on courting Mina, even when she does not like him. He goes so far as to bring her into The Coma as that [[WeCanRuleTogether they can rule together]] as a couple.]]
* TheRival: Both Headmaster Mott and Principal Lee are at each other's throats due to their differing backgrounds: the former is a wealthy American man whose father was the former Headmaster, while the latter is a Korean woman earned her position via hard work.
%%* RunOrDie: Those are the only options Youngho has when it comes to encountering 'the Killer' [[spoiler:"Ms. Song"]] in the Coma.
* ScaryShinyGlasses: When you find out about what [[spoiler: Seho was actually doing in The Coma]], his glasses serve as a visual reminder of his dark, deranged nature.
%%* SavePoint: Most blackboards. Unusually for the trope, saving does not restore health.
%%* ScareChord: Plays whenever [[spoiler: Coma!Miss Song]] appears to chase and kill Youngho.
* SexualExtortion: [[spoiler:Miss Nah is indebted to Headmaster Mott due to borrowing money from him to pay off her post-secondary school loans. It is revealed that he visits her office after 5 PM to receive regular "compensation".]]
* ShoutOut:
** Seho says [[Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger "I'll be back"]] in an [[TheAhnold exaggerated, foreign accent]].
** Upon finding some chemicals in the Biology classroom, Youngho wishes he could find the SuperSoldier serum for ComicBook/CaptainAmerica.
** Youngho is a big fan of [[VideoGame/{{Overwatch}} Underwatch]] and [[VideoGame/StarCraft Spacecraft]].
** Checking out the ventilation fan in Youngho's classroom has a message about any student who wants to be a hero to go ahead and clean it out. Youngho says that [[Music/MeatLoaf he'd do anything for love, but he won't do that]].
* SinisterSurveillance: Sehwa High has security cameras everywhere, even in the washrooms. Youngho remarks how the school’s surveillance is akin to UsefulNotes/NorthKorea.
* SpannerInTheWorks: [[spoiler: No one and no [[EldritchAbomination thing]] ''wants'' Youngho in the Coma, but they don't know how he could have entered it otherwise.]]
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: There are mild inconsistencies with how the names of three characters are supposed to be spelled: Seho Ghil/Seho Gill, Miss Nah/Na, and Sumi Park/Soomi Park.

%%* StableTimeLoop: It's implied in a memo that [[spoiler: Youngho]] is trapped in one when you start another game file after completing the game in the first time.

%%* StringyHairedGhostGirl: [[spoiler: The Shade, as well as Coma!Miss Song. There are also female apparitions that can swipe at Youngho to make him bleed, or fall on top of him if he steps too close to them.]]

* TentacledTerror: [[spoiler: The poison tendril hazards resemble a cross between cephalopods and a vine plants.]]
* TentacleHead: [[spoiler: Coma!Miss Song's final transformation. Her unkempt hair transforms into long, wriggling, tentacles.]]
* TrailOfBlood: As Youngho explores more of Sehwa, he finds more and more bloody trails and stains.
* TrueArtIsIncomprehensible: Invoked and subverted. [[spoiler:Youngho considers art "subjective", so he slacks off in art class, figuring he'll pass anyway. He is wrong.]]
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Even ''before'' shit hits the fan, Youngho never questions the bandages wrapped around Yaesol's hands.
%%* VaderBreath: Invoked with [[spoiler: the hostile denizens of the Coma!Sehwa.]]
* VoiceOfTheLegion: [[spoiler: Youngho mentions how the Shade and Seho's voice speak in unison, when the former has taken over the latter's body.]]
* VoodooDoll: [[spoiler: The Shade makes use of life-sized mannequins in order to manipulate certain people in Sehwa High. Seho also addresses how the Shade can turn a person's shadow into a living puppet.]]
