History VisualNovel / SpiritHunterDeathMarkII

** [[spoiler: The main antagonist of Chapter 3, Rei Kashima, was a student who fell in love with her teacher, Mr. Hirose, after he gave her a pair of scissors to support her dream of becoming a hairdresser. Another student, Megumi Manabe, tried seducing the same teacher, and then threw Mr. Hirose under the bus when a photo of that incident was leaked.]]

* MagicMushroom: In Chapter 5, Yashiki has to eat a bit of fox laccata in order to see where Mister Kokkuri is hiding. Subverted in that, while the mushroom is a hallucinogen, it probably has no further supernatural properties. Yashiki's ability to see Mister Kokkuri after eat it is probably due to a combination of Yashiki's special spiritual sense and Mister Kokkuri's association with the mushroom.

* ContinuityNod: Yashiki can comment on Ritsu Sakamoto's rabbit-themed accessories and how it makes him nostalgic about his late sister. [[spoiler:Saya Kujou took the form of a black rabbit to help Yashiki during the first game.]]

** Finding "lost souls" are required for leveling up Yashiki's stats and are hidden throughout the school. Checking at the infirmary will tell you how many lost souls you have yet to find in a chapter. The game will also give you an opportunity to look for lost souls near the end of each chapter, with advancing to the next chapter being a player decision.

** [[spoiler: After Michiho's AccidentalMurder, Douryou reveals to Yashiki that Michiho developed feelings for him. How aware Yashiki was of this depends on the player's response, though regardless of the dialogue picked, Yashiki will not reciprocate Michiho's feelings.]]
** [[spoiler: In the true ending, the real Michiho reveals that she and Douryou have inherited The Departed's love for Yashiki, much to his chagrin.]]

* ArtifactTitle: Only applies to the international title. There is no Death Mark to deal with here. In Japanese, the game is called ''Shibito Magire'', which translates roughly to "Corpse Confusion".

* ClockTower: The academy has one of these, but for years its clock has failed to work, so it's stood still for a long time. It becomes an important location to visit near the end of the story, due to [[spoiler: being where The Departed came from before haunting the academy]].

''Spirit Hunter: Death Mark II'' (''シ二ガミ: シビト マギレ Shinigami: Shibito Magire'') is a supernatural [[HorrorVisualNovels horror visual novel]] developed by Experience, Inc. for the Platform/NintendoSwitch, Platform/Playstation4, Platform/Playstation5, and Platform/{{Steam}}. It is the third installment in the VisualNovel/SpiritHunter series, released in Japan in 2022 and worldwide in 2024.

* FanDisservice: As with the first game, there are many CG's depicting female characters in states of undress or "flattering" positions... while they're being killed or after they're already dead.

* MirrorScare: The CG that accompanies Michiho's explanation of the Hanako of the Toilet rumor shows a student washing her hands while the mirror reveals something ghastly rising from the stall behind her.

* CharacterSelectForcing: Depending on who you choose as your partner, surviving certain "Suspensive Acts" can be made easier or harder. You'll want to bring someone with the best stats for the situation, though it's usually difficult to know who you need with you [[TrialAndErrorGameplay before the "Suspensive Act" starts.]] Even for more mundane puzzle-solving or gathering collectibles, certain events can only be accessed by certain characters. For example, neither Yashiki or Daimon can fit their hands into a gap to get something, but Ai's hands are slender enough to reach.

** There's an option to immediately return to the infirmary while you're out exploring the school, saving a lot of time that would otherwise be spent backtracking. It also makes trading for Sacred Items or tracking lost souls easier. However, [[KaizoTrap there are times when you don't want to use this.]]

* StockShoujoBullyingTactics: Hanako Akai was bullied severely, eventually leading to her being DrivenToSuicide. She got cornered in the old school building, [[ForceFeeding force fed milk]] [[DoesNotLikeSpam which she hated]], had insulting graffiti written about her on the bathroom walls, and was forced to wear the red overall dress so the bullies could mock her resemblance to Hanako of the Toilet. This is on top of other unspecified harassment, including being bullied due to associating with the more popular [[OnlyFriend Naomi Horikoshi.]] Before Akai died, she and Horikoshi had some sort of a falling out, which may have contributed to Akai's decision.
