History Anime / HousingComplexC

* KarmicJackpot: [[spoiler:By being a genuine GentleGiant that tried to save and protect Kimi throughout the story, Kan is able to be brought into the present without issue beyond his wounds. If Kimi really is Yog-Sothoth, then his direct prayer to her for her protection compared to Yuri's selfish desires and fear likely also contributed to his survival.]]

** The DramaticChaseOpening makes it seem like [[spoiler:Kan has lost his mind and is hunting down Kimi and Yuri to kill them before Yuri's father saves them.]] This scene does its damnedest to make you think that [[spoiler:Kan is going to go nuts]] for the rest of the story. Once episode 4 finally gets around to this, [[spoiler:Kan is completely sane of mind besides knowing enough about eldritch lore to call for Yog'Sothoth's protection, and Yuri's family are actually the insane killers, meaning the entire scene was a giant red herring to throw off the twist.]]

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: [[spoiler:Rubel becomes so stressed from the bizarre events at the complex that he flees at night.]]

* LaserGuidedKarma: [[spoiler:Yuri and her family, who've gone about murdering the residents of Housing Complex C almost indiscriminately, are causally slaughtered by Kimi, who is revealed to be a god disguised as a child. She shows disgust as to how HistoryRepeats, and dumps the organs of Yuri's parents all over her. After which she gives Yuri a brutal TheReasonYouSuckSpeech and then gets her to start throwing up moss. Yuri then starts expelling moss from every orifice like blood before popping like an overinflated balloon. All the while Kimi expresses sadness about how HumansAreBastards to each other due to human stupidity.]]

* TrailersAlwaysSpoil: When it was aired on ''Creator/Toonami'', the next episode previews always give away the big moment towards the end even if out of context. Part of the twist that [[spoiler:the Koshides are the people behind everything]] was even given away for the finale via showing one character attacking another. Though [[spoiler:''nothing'' spoiled the [[TheEndingChangesEverything ending.]]]]

* TheEndingChangesEverything: [[spoiler:Yuri and her family are insane, murderous cultists who only went to Housing Complex C in the first place to sacrifice the residents to their "god", including Kimi. Then it turns out Kimi is another, different god who seemingly knew that all along and expresses little more than slight disappointment before gruesomely disposing of all three, saying that she's been on Earth for over 20,000 years and humanity always screws up and she's tired of living among them. Kan is the only survivor, after reciting words that Kimi gave to him, and awakens in a long-abandoned and overgrown Housing Complex C.]]

* WhamShot: We've been led to believe that it's the year 2000, as indicated by the calendar Kimi keeps in her apartment. [[spoiler:However in episode 3, it's shown the dog's body has a year tag that reads 2003 and there are dates that show 2021. As well, [[https://i.imgur.com/4DORCtc.png Yuri is shown playing a rhythm game on her smartphone]] on the car trip in episode 1, suggesting the story's events have been in some form of the present day since the start. Episode 4 confirms that Housing Complex C is in time stasis that was broken by the visitors.]]

* BigSisterInstinct: Yuri believes herself to be Kimi's older sister and tells her this [[spoiler:when they find the hidden tomb that Taka found]] to try to console a heartbroken Kimi. However, [[spoiler:both of them start to ''really'' believe that they really are sisters, complete with Kimi recalling the events of long ago when her apparent ancestor watched Yuri's apparent ancestor sacrificing her life to protect her.]]
