Go To

Tropes:

  • Be Careful What You Wish For: Early in the episode, Aya tells her brother that she feels something is missing in her life, and that she would prefer that her life wasn't so ordinary. In the very next day, Aya's wish comes true, but not the way she wanted.
  • The Clan: The Mikage family is shown as one of these, as Aya and Aki seem to have a lot of uncles, aunts, and other distant relatives.
  • Chronic Hero Syndrome: Aya's almost gets her killed when she's trying to stop a man that robbed a lady's purse.
  • Dangerous 16th Birthday: The day Aya and Aki turn 16, the whole Mikage family reunites with the intent of killing Aya.
  • Fortune Teller: Aya sees one at the beginning of the episode, that gives her a rather obtuse prediction that points to a bleak future, but also tells her that she'll have a life-saving encounter. As far as this episode goes, her prediction seems to be accurate.
  • I Just Want to Be Special: Discussed by Aya and her twin brother Aki, after the incident at the bridge: Aya has constantly a feeling that something is missing in her life, and feels that her life is too ordinary; on the other end, after the incident that could have killed his sister, Aki tells Aya how grateful he feels about having a normal life. The irony of this conversation lies on the fact that the day this conversation happened, was arguably the last "normal" day in the twins' lives.
  • Mysterious Protector: Touya, that saves Aya's life when she's about to get ran over by a car.
  • Ordinary High-School Student: Aya and Aki are this, but that changes forever by the end of the episode.
