* AmbiguouslyHuman: Konoha.

* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: The Mekakushidan's eye powers tend to be connected to things they wished for prior to [[spoiler:their deaths]]--Takane was narcoleptic and wished she had a body that didn't need things like food or sleep to function. Haruka was frail from his congenital illness and wanted a stronger body. Momo wanted people to notice her and not just her genius big brother. Seto wanted to be able to understand people's feelings without having to talk to them. Kano wanted to hide [[spoiler:the evidence of his mother's abuse]].

* FriendlessBackground: All of the main characters, to some degree. Shintaro was an InsufferableGenius and apathetic at best, driving all others (except Ayano) away, Momo's ability is implied to have alienated her peers (as well as making her hate going out in public), Kido's power literally made her invisible to others, Kano was kept at home by his abusive mother, Seto was bullied until he met the latter two, Marry lived alone for ''130'' years because she was afraid of hurting people, Ene and Konoha [[spoiler:actually ''did'' become friends with Shintaro and Ayano, but prior to that, they were mostly isolated from all of their peers except for each other due to their respective health conditions.]] and Hibiya's ultra-conservative parents stunted his social skills, while his fixation on Hiyori makes him fight with other boys. Hiyori herself seems to like him... as long as he's a convenience to her. Luckily, they all become TrueCompanions.
