-> Some sentence, part of my Inner Monologue
Hi! Sayuri Yamada welcomes you!
First of all, I just want to say that I'm a crazy fangirl who changes personalities as many times she blinks.

Tropes present in Sayuri's life (or that she thinks are present in her life):
- Absurdly Youthful Mother: who has been mistaken for my sister twice.
- Action Girl: Guess who's the only girl who has never said "no" to a game against boys?
- Afraid of Needles: stemming from a painful shot more than a year ago.
- Aloof Big Sister.
- Alternative Character Interpretation: Am I an Ill Girl with a bit of Ditzy Genius, or am I a lonely and delusional girl, or am I completely out of my mind?.
- Ambiguous Disorder: My mother actually told my sister to stop trying to hug me because I was autistic (which I'm most certainly not).
- Annoying Younger Sibling: two of them, actually.
- Anti-Hero: I have some shades of this along with my dad.
- Book Worm: I learnt to read at age four (before even going to school), and since then I have been an obsessed reader.
- Brainy Brunette
- Broken Ace: Trying so hard to accomplish other people's expectatives and discovering I'm not a sweet kid anymore.
- Broken Bird
- Brown Eyes
- Cloud Cuckoolander: Just ask my mother.
- Crapsaccharine World: My state is this trope incarnated... while there are soldiers around the city and many dead bodies have been discovered, the governor still says that nothing happens here.
- Creepy Child: When I was little I read books about monsters and had a vast knowledge about astronomy, Greek-Roman mythology and other things six-year-olds shouldn't know...

- Darker and Edgier: I can transform anyone's ideas into this.
- Dead Pan Snarker: In my house and with my friends, sometimes including coughs.
- Different as Night and Day: My younger sister and I. She's one of the most talkative persons I've ever met and she's quite energetic, while I'm a girl of few words and the laziest person I'll ever meet.
- Dissonant Laughter: When arguing with my parents I tend to do this or give them a frightening smile.

- Eyes Always Shut: We joke with this regarding my sister.
