* UsedToBeASweetKid: Chizumi was apparently an innocent and well-behaved girl before her parents deaths. Yuuma believes that she was possessed by the vengeful spirits of the animals that he killed as a child, though she may have actually simply been driven insane by seeing her brother murder their parents as sacrifices to the devil. But then, he also claims she is the daughter of the devil and his mother.

Added DiffLines:

* AmbiguouslyEvil: The manga provides equal amounts of evidence to support both the idea that Yuuma is an AntiVillain who is genuinely disgusted and terrified by the influence that the devil has over himself and his sister and the idea that he's a depraved and despicable devil worshiper who only feels true pleasure when he's channeling the devil's power through his apologies and simply puts on a MaskOfSanity to make doing that easier.


Added DiffLines:

* CoyGirlishFlirtPose: Chizumi dons this when around her crush Tomohito. Naturally, it's much scarier than it is cute.


Added DiffLines:

* MaskOfSanity / TheyLookJustLikeEveryoneElse: Yuuma is much more normal-looking, polite and seemingly kind than his sister is, but he may in fact be much, much worse than her. It's even suggested at a few points that Yuuma is the reason ''why'' Chizumi is as insane and corrupt as she is.
* MultipleChoicePast: Yuuma and Chizumi both give multiple explanations for their backgrounds and powers, [[UnreliableNarrator which always conflict with the other one's story and occasionally conflict with their own previous accounts]]. In general, Yuuma's explanations play himself up as a victim of supernatural forces beyond his control while Chizumi's portray him as a despicable psychopath.


Added DiffLines:

* VillainousCrush: Chizumi develops a crush on a young boy named Tomohito in one chapter. While having Chizumi as an admirer is as mentally-scarring as you'd expect, her feelings ''do'' appear to be genuine, to the point where she makes a point of stopping Yuuma from apologizing to him so that he won't die.

Correct "Chizuma" to "Chizumi"


Yuuma Azawa and his little sister Chizumi are ''not'' normal. Yuuma spends his time apologizing to almost everyone around him and Chizuma creeps out everyone who encounters her. What no one knows, usually until it's too late, is that they harbor dark secrets that make them a deadly menace to everyone around them, and a string of horrifying incidents sets them on the move.

* AmbiguousInnocence: Chizumi asserts that Yuuma is addicted to apologizing to other people due to it bringing him closer to the devil. Yuuma always immediately denies this whenever he's around to hear her... [[DiggingYourselfDeeper only to begin apologizing for his sister's strange behavior to whoever she was speaking with]]. Overall, it's unclear whether Yuuma is [[AntiVillain an unwilling victim of the devil's power]], or [[TheSociopath a genuine sociopath who consciously goes out of his way to kill as many people as he can]].

Added DiffLines:

* DiggingYourselfDeeper: Yuuma doesn't exactly make a great case for himself when arguing against Chizumi's claims that he uses his brain-melting apologies for his own pleasure, as he always starts apologizing to whoever she was speaking to for her strange behavior. Naturally, this is generally when people start running from him.

* TheReveal/ TheUnreveal: The final chapter manages to do both. [[spoiler: On the one hand, it is revealed that the devil did in fact have ''some'' kind of presence within both Yuuma and Chizumi. On the other, it does not confirm whether or not Yuuma really was its loyal servant like Chizumi claimed him to be, leaving whether the two were victims of its power or its willing minions unclear.]]
* TheSociopath: Yuuma killed small animals as a kid, which is a textbook sign of a sociopath. If we are to believe Chizumi, then all of his polite and meek behavior is merely an act to allow him to kill as many people as he possibly can, which firmly puts him here.

* ApologizesALot: Yuuma spends a great deal of time loudly and profusely apologizing to people, which causes his classmates to think he's strange and bully him, and just confuses everyone else.

If Chizumi is to be believed, he's addicted to apologizing because it feeds his obsession with the devil and gives him pleasure.]]

* BaitTheDog: Yuuma is a polite, handsome, well-behaved and earnest young man who apologizes to everyone he meets over the smallest things. He also has the power to ''melt peoples' bodies'' simply by talking to them and may or may not be a devil worshiper who gets off on doing it.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Yuuma is a well-mannered and polite guy who apologizes for even minor screw ups constantly... but his apologies are ''exactly'' what cause him to be able to make everyone he meets melt.
* {{Bishonen}}: Yuuma is noticeably more attractive than the rest of the male cast, and his looks are one of the first things that women notice about him. This makes it much easier for them to let their guard down when around him.



* FaceOfAnAngelMindOfADemon: Yuuma is a handsome, polite and well-behaved young man who (according to Chizumi) killed both of his parents as blood sacrifices to the devil and goes out of his way to melt the brains of everyone that he speaks to because it makes him feel closer to his dark master.



* PaperTiger: In contrast to [[BaitTheDog her brother]], Chizumi is terrifying to look at and openly threatens to eat the brains of anyone that she talks to. Despite this, she has no supernatural powers of her own, and is more or less harmless so long as she isn't around Yuuma.

Yuuma insists that Chizumi isn't in the right mind, and seems genuinely remorseful when apologizing to others, making him come off as an unwilling victim of the devil rather than a devoted follower. It's ambiguous which one of the two is telling the truth and which one is lying.
* UsedToBeASweetKid: Chizumi was apparently an innocent and well-behaved girl before her parents deaths. Yuuma believes that she was possessed by the vengeful spirits of the animals that he killed as a child, though she may have actually simply been driven insane by seeing her brother murder their parents as sacrifices to the devil.
* VillainProtagonist: Yuuma kills almost everyone that he speaks with and Chizumi eats their melted remains. Yuuma may or may not be an AntiVillain depending on how much you believe his innocence.

''Dissolving Classroom'' is a 2017 manga by Creator/JunjiIto.

Yuuma Azamwa and his little sister Chizumi are ''not'' normal. Yuuma spends his time apologizing to almost everyone around him and Chizuma creeps out everyone who encounters her. What no one knows, usually until it's too late, is that they harbor dark secrets that make them a deadly menace to everyone around them.

!!This manga provides examples of the following:

* ApologizesALot: Yuuma spends a great deal of time loudly and profusely apologizing to people, which causes his classmates to think he's strange and bully him, and just confuses everyone else. [[spoiler:If Chizumi is to be believed, he's addicted to apologizing because it feeds his obsession with the Devil and gives him pleasure. Then again, considering how the manga ends, ]]
* BodyHorror: The reader is slapped with it just by the ''cover'' and it never gets better, as people melting is a common theme throughout the manga.
* BrownNote: The dark energy produced by [[spoiler:Yuuma's apologies]] causes people's brains to melt, and eventually dissolves their entire bodies into goop. [[spoiler:The worse part? They're still alive, or at the very least their souls are still anchored to their liquefied remains.]]
* DealWithTheDevil: According to Chizumi, Yuuma sacrificed their parents to the devil. [[spoiler:What happened is never made exactly clear, but the devil definitely has some kind of power in them, as Keiko
* ImAHumanitarian: Chizumi's first appearance has her stating that she's going to eat Keiko's brains. Later on, it's revealed that she enjoys drinking the liquified bodies of Yuuma's victims.
* NewTransferStudent: The manga kicks off with Yuuma transferring into Keiko's class. He immediately apologizes, setting in motion the eventual deaths of everyone there except for Keiko, who escapes with only brain damage.
* NightmareFace:
** Chizumi, with her bulging, starey eyes, Joker-like grin, and enormous tongue. Yuuma says that it's due to her being cursed as a side effect of his killing animals as a child.
** The inevitable fate of [[spoiler:girls who hear Yuuma praise their beauty long enough]] is to have their faces distort in monstrously ugly ways. [[spoiler:As he's actually praising the beauty of the devil, it's likely a variant on the melting power of his apologies.]]
* BittersweetEnding: More bitter than sweet, as while [[spoiler:Yuuma and Chizumi are implied to have been killed by the animated liquid remains of their victims, and thus their souls are now in hell, thousands (if not millions) of people are implied to have been killed by watching the news feed of the press conference and hearing Yuuma's apologies]].
