Arbitrary Skepticism: Averted. Everyone Matsuda tells about the time loop believes him pretty quickly, and Gevanni even says that after having accepted Death Notes and shinigami as real he can believe just about anything.

Sanity Slippage
 Metempsychosis (Fanfic) / int_62434fe2
comment
Sanity Slippage: The more loops Matsuda goes through, the more this happens, as he does things he normally would have never done. This becomes exacerbated after the end of chapter 11, after Light kills Matsuda with a scrap of the Death Note.

Murder-Suicide: A temporary time-loop version in Chapter 12. Matsuda impulsively kills Light early in the day, then decides he doesn’t want to have to conceal or explain his actions and kills himself to restart the loop.

Set Right What Once Went Wrong
 Metempsychosis (Fanfic) / int_93ed8515
comment
Set Right What Once Went Wrong: Subverted. Matsuda initially assumes that the time loop will end if he manages to create a “good” resolution for the events of January 28th, but after several failed attempts he starts to lose hope that a good resolution even exists.

"Not So Different" Remark
 Metempsychosis (Fanfic) / int_984ef9ef
comment
"Not So Different" Remark: In Chapter 13 Ryuk comments that Matsuda, in becoming indifferent towards people who don’t remember the loops, is starting to think about them the way a shinigami thinks about humans.

"Groundhog Day" Loop
 Metempsychosis (Fanfic) / int_b5ac90ac
comment
"Groundhog Day" Loop: The basic premise of the story. Matsuda is trapped in a time loop on January 28th, 2010, waking up again on the morning of that day after every time he goes to sleep or dies.

Hope Spot
 Metempsychosis (Fanfic) / int_c3c18143
comment
Hope Spot In Chapter 10, Matsuda stays up past midnight and sees the date change over to January 29th with Light still alive and a plan in place to convince him to stop killing permanently. Matsuda believes that this means that the loop has ended and time will progress forward into this hopeful future. The author even teases the audience by naming this chapter “January 29th, 2010” instead of the usual “January 28th”. In the next chapter, when he wakes up and discovers that it’s the 28th again, Matsuda finds himself teetering on the edge of the Despair Event Horizon. This leads to a darker version in Chapter 11, when Matsuda dies for the first time and hopes that he won’t come back.

Time Loop Fatigue
 Metempsychosis (Fanfic) / int_f5367df1
comment
Time Loop Fatigue: Matsuda gradually loses hope of escaping the loop and becomes acclimated to the idea that his actions don’t have consequences. This leads him to take increasingly reckless and immoral actions, such as assassinating world leaders on a whim in Chapter 12 and torturing Light in Chapter 13.
