| 20 | * CantHoldHisLiquor |
| 21 | * ClassyCravat: A white one with a gemstone button as per dress code of Neo-Thought faction. |
| 22 | * {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Described by Tokuda as "Often seen daydreaming", while frequently misplaces his belongings and is SuperGullible at times. Akutagawa is officially described in game as “Has a calm and steady look, but is actually bit of an air head”. |
| 23 | * EasternZodiac: Dragon (1892)… were you surprised? |
| 24 | * {{Hallucinations}}: Whenever weakened, he claims to see gears wriggling at the corner of his eyes. This is a reference to his short novel ''Gears''. |
| 25 | * HatesBaths: |
| 26 | --> '''Akutagawa:''' "''(At office)'' It's such a pain to take baths." |
| 27 | * HeterosexualLifePartners: With Kikuchi. They even have matching gloves. |
| 28 | * HeroicSelfDeprecation: Akutagawa thinks poorly of his own works and compares them unfavorably to someone like Naoya's. He's fighting not to save his own literature, but to save the literature of others. |
| 29 | * IdiotHair: Has few notable ones. |
| 30 | * LongHairedPrettyBoy: Is handsome, and has long blue hair that ties into a ponytail. |
| 31 | * LossOfIdentity: His main struggle in the first official novel, ''The Faceless Genius'' (顔のない天才). |
| 32 | --> "In my previous life, I suicided due to some sort of anxiety. Fate had given Akutagawa Ryuunosuke the choice to abandon his life. So, if I revived like this, I am not returning to Akutagawa Ryuunosuke anymore. |
| 33 | |
| 34 | --> Then, ''who am I''?" |
| 35 | * MeaningfulName: Ryuunosuke means 'Son of the dragon', as he was born in the dragon year (1892), on dragon day (March 1), at dragon time (7-9 am). |
| 36 | * NotAMorningPerson |
| 37 | * ObliviousToLove: More of the fanboy type, but he had no idea Dazai admires him, and instead believed the younger hates him. Reasonable, though. |
| 38 | --> '''Akutagawa:''' "Dazai-kun? Honestly, I just remember him as the one in [[ColorCodedForYourConvenience red]]. At first he neither make eye contact with me nor speak to me, so I thought that he hates me." |
| 39 | ** This eventually became a discontinued trope as the game proceeds. In a recent interview, Akutagawa said that he had read and actually likes Dazai's works, and now relies on him much. |
| 40 | * SmokingIsCool: He is a heavy smoker, with number of his lines revolve around smoking. Due to the genre of the game, it's naturally designed to look cool. |
| 41 | * SuperGullible: At times becomes disconcerted due to easily falling for lies, both in game and in real life. He once had a friend who offered him a [[HealItwithBooze "cure"]] for rashes by applying it at ''certain'' body parts, and let's say [[GroinAttack it didn't go that well]]. |
| 42 | * TerribleArtist: Sure, he is a legendary writer, but when it comes to drawing, his creations are just...

| 56 | * AscendedFanboy: He is a huge fanboy of Akutagawa, who he unfortunately can never met when alive. This time Dazai finally can get close to his idol, and for him it's much more than just appealing. |
| 57 | * EasternZodiac: Rooster (1909). |
| 58 | * EmbarrassingNickname: Chuuya only calls him 'peach blossom bastard', a reminder of their first meeting, which didn't go all that well for Dazai. |
| 59 | * FreudianTrio: With the rest of the Decadent school sanity-wise: Id (unstable) to Ango's Superego (somewhat stable) and Odasaku's Ego (stable). |

| 62 | * InferioritySuperiorityComplex: Dazai loves to brag, but he's easily crushed, and he doesn't have any emotional state between 'I'm a genius author!' and 'I'm good for nothing and should go die'. |
| 63 | * TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: Admires Akutagawa to the point that Akutagawa even knowing his name overjoys him. |
| 64 | * LovableCoward: Would rather avoid direct confrontation by any means necessary, and flatters even people who know he wrote insulting things about them. |
| 65 | * {{Narcissist}}: Thinks pretty highly about himself. |
| 66 | * OlderThanHeLooks: Died at 39 in real life, yet looks like he's in his early twenties here. |
| 67 | * ProneToTears: As seen in ''The Setting Sun'' event, he can go from [[MoodSwinger boasting and complimenting himself the previous second to sobbing over his own failures and attempting suicide the next]], vice versa. |
| 68 | * RedOniBlueOni: Red to Akutagawa's blue, both being the game's most popular characters. Dazai is cheerful, narcissistic (on the exterior) and sometimes a [[TheGadfly Gadfly]], while Akutagawa is calm, polite and holds a low opinion of himself. It's even reflected in their colour designs. |

Many of his lines revolve around cleanliness; he obsesses over it to the point where he always wears gloves, will not eat food unless he thoroughly cooks it through ''even when it's already cooked'', and even then will not eat the part his hand has touched, even though he wears gloves.

| 119 | One of the representative writers of the Aestheticism movement, a very effeminate man with a perverted disposition and a love for women and feminine beauty. |

| 121 | * BunnyEarsLawyer: As one of the most renowned authors in Japan as well as one of the best blade-type authors stats-wise, he is quite an eccentric person. |
| 122 | * CasualKink: A masochist who has a fixation towards women's feet and has living with his desires proudly on display as his motto. |
| 123 | * ChivalrousPervert: Despite his perverted advances, he still ultimately sides with the librarian, fighting against the Taints. |
| 124 | * ClassyCravat: Averted, the only one of Neo-Thought faction without this – in fact, the only character defying faction dress code in the game. |

| 134 | * StalkerWithoutACrush: To Nagai, but the latter doesn't seem to mind and thinks highly of Tanizaki himself. Of course, given the amount of HoYay, this could come off as the [[StalkerWithACrush less platonic variety]]. |
| 135 | * TooKinkyToTorture: He ''loves'' pain, and his actions clearly show this (he moans when he's injured and specifically asks to be hurt more ''even when he was already critically injured''). It's even lampshaded on his profile descriptions, and in his recollection with Satou Haruo, where he was at his worst, getting almost delirious due to the lack of women to abuse him. |

| 425 | * AnimeChineseGirl: For Outer Atsushi, ignoring his gender, his design and personality fits. Due to his familiarity with Chinese culture in his past life, he's given a lot of pretty Chinese costumes, and in the second Galactic Railroad event, he's ''literally'' a Chinese guy by the name of Zhongdao Dun. In battles, the writer instead becomes an ArrogantKungFuGuy. |

| 431 | * InferioritySuperiorityComplex: The two personalities likely stems from Nakajima's insecurities in his first life; Outer Atsushi is the side of him with low self-esteem and doubts of his own capabilities, while Inner Atsushi is proud and bitter about others ignoring his talents. |
| 432 | * ItsFakeFurItsFine: Although they own a tiger fur, it doesn't seem to come from any real tiger as they were reincarnated from books. |

This is likely to emphasize the difference of their personalities. |
| 434 | * JekyllAndHyde: To [[Manga/RosarioPlusVampire Moka Akashiya]] levels; they're basically two different people in and out of battle, from looks, behavior to even ''voice''. |
| 435 | * LiteralSplitPersonality: In the "Purify the Setting Sun" event, a taint separates the two into different bodies. |

| 438 | * SmartPeopleWearGlasses: Of the two personalities, Outer Atsushi is definitely the more inclined to intellectual pursuits, and he's the only one who wears their glasses. |
| 439 | * SplitPersonalityMakeover: When Inner Atsushi takes control, he ditches their glasses and slicks back his hair. |
| 440 | * SplitPersonalityTeam: Inner Atsushi handles all the fighting. In exchange, Outer Atsushi does all of the socializing - Inner Atsushi doesn't have any interest in "talking to idiots". |
| 441 | * {{Tsundere}}: Inner Atsushi can be this to Outer Atsushi at times. While he often mocks the other personality and calls him an idiot, he is ultimately very protective of him and won't tolerate those who try to mess with him. |
