* AmbiguousDisorder: Mizore has a bizarre train of thought, and, although she seems to be always right about math, she gets to those answers in the strangest of ways. She also sometimes has difficulty speaking and understanding what others are telling her.

* AmbiguousDisorder: With {{LPoD}} and {{DiOS}}, it is clear that something is wrong with Shiro but the audience has not been given enough information as of yet. [[spoiler: With his past with Einosuke, it is highly implied that Shiro suffers from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.]]

* AbortedArc: [[spoiler: All of the student's character arcs were changed in DiOS from LPoD. This is because the story is vastly different and the arcs just wouldn't work with the current plot plus the new characters.]]
* AndNowForSomeoneCompletelyDifferent: [[spoiler: When Shiro dies in LPoD, Emilynn begins narrating. It's unknown who the narrators of the last two chapters are, however.]]

* MysteriousPast: At times, it can seem like everybody is hiding something about themselves and knows way more than they should. Especially Shiro.




to:

* [[spoiler: AssholeVictim: The first victim of Lost Paradise. It is hard to feel sorry with Mei knowing that she's the mastermind. Though it's clear that there's way more to the story than we currently know.]]



* AmbiguousDisorder: Mizore has a bizarre train of thought, and, although she seems to be always right about math, she gets to those answers in the strangest of ways. She also sometimes has difficulty speaking and understanding what others are telling her.



* AntiHero: Shiro has always been this because although he is a good person at heart, he is not afraid to use and look down on others. [[spoiler: This is further explored in DiOS where there's a lot more time to explore more of his good and bad qualities. And, considering he actually thinks about killing somebody in the prologue for making a joke, his sanity is being more rightly questioned.]]
* AmbiguousDisorder: With LPoD and DiOS, it is clear that something is wrong with Shiro but the audience has not been given enough information as of yet. [[spoiler: With his past with Einosuke, it is highly implied that Shiro suffers from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.]]
* MassiveNumberedSiblings: One of twenty-eight.

to:

* [[spoiler: AbusiveParents: Shiro's father, Einosuke, might be the biggest piece of crap in the Committee Saga. Though not much is known about the current state of Shiro's mother and the relationship they now have.]]
* AntiHero: Shiro has always been this because although he is a good person at heart, he is not afraid to use and look down on others. [[spoiler: This is further explored in DiOS {{DiOS}} where there's a lot more time to explore more of his good and bad qualities.

* TheCynic: Shiro goes on full internal monologues about how bad the world is. Although he acts calm and collected on the outside, Shiro looks down on everybody and is often seen as arrogant.
* [[spoiler: DarkandTroubledPast: Shiro's past gets more explored in Despair in Our Stars than Lost Paradise. From what the story has revealed, Shiro has an abusive father way too obsessed with having a lot of children and used to have a good relationship with his mom before something happened. Then he made it to Hope's Peak and befriended Yoshi and Eimu and it's clear something horrible happened with them. Eventually, Shiro made it out of Einosuke's gasp with the help of Kotori, who probably abused him as well. It doesn't take long to see why Shiro has such a low view of the world.]]
* MassiveNumberedSiblings: One of twenty-eight. Though {{DiOS}} makes it clear that the number is likely higher.

Added DiffLines:

** [[spoiler: Oh look there's the Master! And she kills everybody!]]
* OddFriendship: Can be how Keiji and Choumi's friendship is viewed. One is an overly excited dog lover while one is harsh and doesn't give a crap about other people's opinions.
** Could be the case of Shiro, Eimu, and Yoshi, though the story has not given much information yet. Although Shiro is younger, he is still obsessed with logic and still became friends with a paranoid conspiracy theorist and the person that hangs out with them and doesn't say anything.
* OneSteveLimit: Averted. Natsuki Sumeragi and Kitsu Natsuki have their names switched and are both actors, though Sumeragi is a voice actor while Kitsu does commercials. Emilynn is also the Ultimate Lucky Student. With the new cast members, Himura and Yuu share the same talent, the Ultimate Violinist. Tahlia is the Ultimate Inventor but this takes place before V3 so it is safe to say Miu actually stole the talent from her (also Tahlia is not official).


Added DiffLines:

* TeenGenius: Many of the Ultimates. It is safe to assume Shiro was one but during the events of the story he is an adult.
