* SquishyWizard: ZigZagged. She's considered small and weak ''by giant standard'', so she's still much bigger and stronger than any human. And she often enhances her physical attributes in combat, to subvert her squishy status.

Trope titles are formatted wrong. Removed the examples which are pure speculation at this point in the story, even if somewhat likely to happen in the future. Truncated one of the tropes for containing unnecessary examples.


* From Nobody to Nightmare: Foreshadowed. Hinako at the start doesn't showcase a lot of badass moments compared to Elis. However, over the course of the story so far, she demonstrates moments where her actions carry merit in her own way. Sometimes elevated to a frightening degree. [[spoiler:Based on the first chapter, the encounter with Wisest Giant and the prophecy, it is hinted that Hinako carries a gigantic dark presence that is capable of destroying the world. This dark presence is often illustrated as a distorted and overwhelming shadow of nightmarish appearance.]]



* Improvisational Ingenuity: Hinako can be a quick-thinker and quick to act in solving a problem with little time with the resources at her disposal. Demonstrated in Chapter 13 [[spoiler:where she used her second bottle of Soma, a healing potion, to feed into Junko through mouth-to-mouth to prevent Junko from killing herself to create another time loop.]]
* MaybeMagicMaybeMundane: We know that Hinako did not accept a [[NewLifeInAnotherWorldBonus Cheat Skill]], but there is something ''off'' about her in certain moments where the world almost seems to twist to her whims and emotions with shadows curling in surreal and obtuse angles around her making her appear monstrous and gigantic. The Giant chief seems to know something about it as he is patently terrified of her even though she is so much smaller and weaker than him. [[spoiler:Then in Chapter 11 during a moment of heightened emotion an eclipse that was supposed to happen, just happened to coincide with their fight, has Hinako's face rage filled face imprinted on it, which allows her to get the drop on Junko Hidako, slashing her throat. It doesn't stick due to Hidako's [[NewLifeInAnotherWorldBonus Cheat Skill]], but both other people present are shocked by the moment.]]
* Start of Darkness: Hinako's journey in the story so far, from the origins of her arrival to the Other World to her single purpose driving her, has been motivated by dark actions she purposely done by her own hands. A fact that she herself is aware of.

* Weak, but Skilled: Without a cheat, an amputated arm, and small body, Hinako has a disadvantage compared to other Otherworlders with cheats and tougher opponents. Despite that physical disadvantage, Hinako makes up for it with her quick-thinking actions and equipment.

* Chekov's Skill: Etiquette. Downplayed over the course of the story but brought into relevancy in a flashback. A significant character development for Elis.

Learning manners as a means of interacting with other people allowed Elis to communicate and learn each of their individual skills to apply to her own abilities.]]

Added DiffLines:

* BottledHeroicResolve: Hinako carries bottles of Soma on her for cases of emergency. They are potions meant for berserkers to heal their wounds and buff them up at the cost of incredible pain while it's active, along with an estimated 60% success rate with very heavy consequences if it doesn't.


Added DiffLines:

* ThrowDownTheBomblet: One of Hinako's actual offensive options in combat are the explosive potions she carries on her person. Being who she is, she has very little consideration towards how close she herself is to said explosions.

** This is especially significant as in the world that she exists the number and complexity of [[PowerTattoo magical tattoos]] that a person develops determines how much power they will have. As a Giant, Eiris has '''much''' more surface area to cover with tattoos making her that much more powerful when it comes to magic.

* CreepyGood: When Hidako gets intense, she can easily produce the most terrifying panels out of any other character in the manga.
* TheFettered: Hidako's actions are guided largely by her conviction in both "God" and her "siblings", and the lengths that she is willing to go for both puts her firmly under this trope.
* TheHeart: It is explicitly made clear that her function is to be the caretaker and the emotional core of her party, and that it is the only thing that she realistically ''can'' do as she does not possess any special powers, fighting prowess or exceptional smarts. This is despite possessing [[GoodIsNotNice many traits not normally associated with this character type]].
