Arch-Enemy: Toru and Noboru dislike each other from the outset, but over the course of the novel they come to absolutely despise each other.

Affably Evil: Boris the Manskinner in Lieutenant Mamiya's story. He's polite even as he's torturing a man and leaving another to die.

Author Appeal: Apparently, the author has quite a thing for wells and classical music. It's also pretty clear that he really loves cats.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })

Abusive Parents: Let's face it. Kumiko's parents were absolute shit to all of their children.

The Ace: Cinnamon is good at pretty much everything, ranging from housekeeping to advanced computer programming, and is a borderline Omniglot to boot. He can't talk, but even that's not much of a handicap because people can somehow understand everything he says anyway.
