* ThatOneAchievement: "Your score is in your heart". This one requires the player to answer all of Morikawa's rapid-fire 100 quiz correctly in #2: spectrum. Yes, ''all of them''. And just to make things more difficulty, you have a few seconds to answer every individual question. Get one wrong, and you're not getting the achievement. Hope you saved before the quiz.

Helping Hachisuka get elected mayor by promising that he'll revolutionize the 24th Ward, Nezu would go on to shape the city's infrastructure to his liking for over 20 years, allowing crime to take place across the city while viewing it as his own playground.

Uncanny Valley is IUEO now and the subjective version has been split; cleaning up misuse and ZCE in the process

** [[SilentAntagonist Fuyuki]] is TheHeavy of the Mikumo Boys' scheme whose mouth was sewn shut by the Mikumo 77 villagers. Effortlessly kidnapping Chairman Yukimura and holding him hostage, Fuyuki requests a 6 billion yen diamond paid by the Yukimura Corporation under the threat of harming him. Luring the HCU to an industrial warehouse and forcing the player to waste time going through random hurdles to reveal his location, upon acquiring the diamond, Fuyuki [[SelfDisposingVillain commits suicide]] by jumping down a smokestack, destroying the diamond and bankrupting the Yukimura Corporation in the process.
** [[GeniusCripple Hanao Hiseki]] is a bomber who was [[EyeScream blinded]] by the Mikumo 77 villagers. A [[TheCracker computer wiz]] able to use special technology to get around his blindness, Hiseki is responsible for blowing up Chairman Yukimura's mansion in order to get the HCU's attention, killing himself before he can be arrested. During his spare time, after mistakenly receiving an email from Tokio Morishima, Hiseki decided to [[{{Troll}} prank the journalist]] by posing as "The Bat", making Tokio solve Mother Goose-themed riddles with the false promise of revealing his location. Upon Tokio's completion, Hiseki emails him after his suicide revealing the truth, while [[FriendlyEnemy admitting he was a fun spectator]].

It says quite clearly on the page for And The Fandom Rejoiced not to link to it. It is for in-universe examples and links from the descriptions at the beginning of related trope pages only.


* AndTheFandomRejoiced: An English version of the game was a dream of fans for ''years'', and one that many had begun to give up on. Hearing that it was finally being officially translated and remade was a huge moment of joy for Kill the Past/Suda fans.
