Added DiffLines:

* GroinAttack: Izuminokami to Mutsunokami after the first meeting.

Added DiffLines:

* BearerOfBadNews: Nikkari is this to nearly all of the rest of the cast.


Added DiffLines:

* CampGay: Kashuu, who has a collection of jewelry, is majoring in fashion design, pays a lot of attention to his looks, and wears nail polish and high heels. [[spoiler:Oh, and happens to have strong romantic feelings for Yamatonokami.]] Downplayed, however, because of his interest in kendo and kenjutsu.

Added DiffLines:

* AbusiveParents: The Kunihiro parents, if anything Horikawa and Yamanbagiri have to say [[spoiler:or what they did to Chougi]] say anything.
* AlcoholicParent: Mikaze's father, to the point that Mikaze tries to avoid the family apartment's kitchen because it smells like booze.


Added DiffLines:

* FirstWorldProblems: Just about everything Hachisuka complains about: getting soup spilled on him, having an adopted brother, someone stealing his tea... Never mind the fact that he has an actual problem that he was literally born to fix.


Added DiffLines:

* LowerClassLout: Invoked but ultimately subverted by Kashuu: although his family is poor he's fashionable and hardworking. Arguably subverted by the Kiyomitsu family as a whole, as they operate a successful business despite living in the poorest area of the city.


Added DiffLines:

* ParentalAbandonment: It's never explained what happened to the Samonji brothers' parents.

* DeadPersonConversation: Every time Yuriko turns up.



* DrowningMySorrows: In part one it's mentioned that Kashuu is drinking a lot. [[spoiler:It turns out he was just having a hard time hiding his crush on Yamatonokami.]]



* TheTease: Nikkari, to almost everyone. However, he pays special attention to Ishikirimaru.

Added DiffLines:

* BreakingTheFourthWall: The crack interview in chapter 36 involves multiple mentions of "the readers," and all three of the characters being interviewed address the reader at least once.


Added DiffLines:

* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Yamatonokami (sanguine), Kashuu (melancholic), Horikawa (phlegmatic), and Izuminokami (choleric).
* GoodIsNotNice: Chougi may mean well but he's a real jerk. [[spoiler:Not that he doesn't have good reasons.]]


Added DiffLines:

* InterclassFriendship: Souza's friendship with Kasen.


Added DiffLines:

* ObfuscatingInsanity: Kiri, at least in his interactions with most of the touken danshi. When talking with Nikkari, Chougi, and Nankaitarou he seems saner.


Added DiffLines:

* RunningGag: Yamatonokami's appetite. This takes a darker turn in part six, however: [[spoiler:when he goes home to help his mother take care of his dying father, he starts stress vomiting; the food he buys when he gets back to Shusei is meant to make up for an entire weekend without eating.]]


Added DiffLines:

* ShelteredAristocrat: Hachisuka is out of his social depth, both in college and at the meetings with the other touken danshi. He ranges from being awkward to being outright nasty.

* DeadPersonConversation: Every time [[spoiler:Yuriko]] turns up.

to:

* BewareTheNiceOnes: Yamatonokami, demonstrated as early as part one.
* DeadPersonConversation: Every time [[spoiler:Yuriko]] Yuriko turns up.


Added DiffLines:

* TheChessmaster: [[spoiler:Nikkari. He's responsible for the letters, the meetings, and every other planning detail going into dealing with whatever's under the city of Shusei.]]


Added DiffLines:

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Horikawa's attempts to keep Mutsunokami from learning the Kunihiro family secret not only fail, but get him into trouble. Downplayed, as Mutsunokami is too nice to get Horikawa into too much trouble.


Added DiffLines:

* ManipulativeBastard: Lampshaded by Chougi against Kiri. [[spoiler:He's not entirely wrong, but it's justified by Kiri's intent.]]

* DeadPersonConversation: Every time [[spoiler:Yuriko]] turns up.



* EveryoneMeetsEveryone: In part three, at the first meeting. Arguably applies to the second as well, as even more people show up to that meeting.



* HyperlinkStory: Starts off with five characters' arcs. Then the meeting in part three happens, bringing them all together. Their arcs are still relatively separate though.



* SecretIdentity: Chougi, his roommate, and the teenager his roommate mentors all go by false names when doing anything related to the bigger plot: Yuki, Kiri, and Mikaze, respectively.

to:

* OurGhostsAreDifferent: Yuriko. [[spoiler:She was killed as part of a battle to protect history... or so she says. When not out in the open she shares a body with Nikkari.]]
* PlotlineCrossover: Horikawa and Mutsunokami in parts two and three, and all thanks to Yamanbagiri.
* SecretIdentity: Chougi, his roommate, and the teenager his roommate mentors all go by false names when doing anything related to the bigger plot: Yuki, Kiri, and Mikaze, respectively. Chougi's identity has to stay a secret because [[spoiler:he was replaced by the character everyone knows as Yamanbagiri Kunihiro and wasn't supposed to turn up again]] and Mikaze is a high school student who doesn't want to reveal his identity. Kiri, however, doesn't seem to have any reason to have a secret identity except for the fun of it.

* BadDate: Mutsunokami and Yamanbagiri's date in part six. Everything is fine until [[spoiler:Yamanbagiri Chougi turns up in a sasanqua bush behind them]]; this ruins the date for Yamanbagiri.

* CastFullOfGay: Lampshaded by Mutsunokami at the first meeting. This does not end well.

* DoorStopper: As of this writing it comes in at a cool 171,503 words, not counting the side story.
* FlowerMotifs: Red roses for Kashuu and blue morning glories for Yamatonokami.
* TheILoveYouStigma: Kashuu has such a hard time confessing his feelings to Yamatonokami that he resorts to a story about ''flowers''.
* ImaginaryLoveTriangle: Ishikirimaru with Nikkari and Kikkou in part three, despite Nikkari's special attention to him and Tsurumaru's reassurance. Kikkou clarifies matters later in the day.
* NotADate: Souza and Hasebe at the teahouse in part two.
