** Gabriel Agreste. While he does care about Adrien, it quickly becomes apparent that he cares more about his abilty to [[ControlFreak control Adrien]] than Adrien himself.

Lila points out that even if Chloé manages to escape from them, [[AbusiveParents Audrey]] will do everything in her power to ensure that Chloé is criminally charge for assaulting her and Chloé has already alienated anybody who would be willing to help her, a process that [[ToxicFriendInfluence Lila helped speed along]].

* ComplexityAddiction: Chrysalis notes that’s Cerise’s preference for complex schemes is her biggest failing.

* CrackInTheSky: [[spoiler:These start to form as a side effect of the Miracle Bang and it’s revealed that they’ll destroy the universe if the Bang isn’t reversed.

It shows [[AmbitionIsEvil that Gabriel has always been dangerously ambitious]].]]

* MadArtist: Robin Null[=/=]Faunmania. Before the Miracle Bang he was a NightmareFetishist with a penchant for disturbing art.

->''Is this what being smart is like? I like it.''

* DidntThinkThisThrough

** During the battle at the Agreste Mansion, both Adrien and Kagami get to call out their parents again: Adrien because Gabriel was an egotistical bastard long before Emilie fell sick (citing how he got the guardian of the Prodigious killed and didn't care), and Kagami because Tomoe, for all her claims that carries the legacy of Tomoe Gozen, she actually has more in common with Tomoe Gozen's ''enemies''.
