renamed to Intimacy Via Horror, example is misuse


* GirlsAreReallyScaredOfHorrorMovies: {{Subverted}}. One of Vitoria's favorite genres is horror. However, she doesn't like movies that rely entirely on gory kills for scares, which she considers to be overly tasteless.

* KansaiRegionalDialect: In the animation adaptation. She's a Kansai native, so it's only natural that she speaks with this accent. She also mentions living for several years in Osaka, as well as being born in Wakayama.

* FoolForLove: Indeed quite intelligent, but isn't nearly as much whenever Moe happens to be around.



* FreudianExcuse: The things she's experienced living with a family of criminals as well as parental neglect would push any person to do some questionable actions.



* IGaveMyWord: Heavily exaggerated as a Running Gag. If she promises to do something, she will go to absurd lengths to ensure that her honor isn't in vain.



* ProperLady: A neatly-dressed and well-spoken individual. It's a miracle that she even willingly associates herself with anyone else on the show.



* ThroughHisStomach: She tries on multiple occasions to offer Moe meals since, in her mind, not pilfering someone's food is a sign of true love in her family line. If it happens to be confections, then Moe is more than happy to consent.

* AchievementsInIgnorance: Apparently the reason Warble is able to casually make astute deductions on some controversial topics is primarily because he doesn't realize that they are controversial to begin with.

* SelectiveObliviousness: Pretends not to realize the landlord's awkward attempts to intimidate him simply for the sake of his own sanity.

None


* FriendlyEnemy: Warble makes a living tarnishing Moe's reputation, occasionally for things that aren't even his fault, but is never malicious in his intentions and if there is a greater goal for them both he is shockingly agreeable in a truce.



* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes:
** He's afraid of moths, although this isn't elaborated upon
** He seems to be sensitive when it comes to strong stimuli, particularly sounds. Examples include a FearOfThunder and of loud toilets.

* AmateurSleuth: More of a casual past time rather than a profession.



* HumbleHero: Subverted. He tries to play off his accomplishments coolly, but secretly he takes a lot of enjoyment out of them.
