- Killed Off for Real: At the hands of Kiba, though the beginning of episode 3 has Chie swiftly approaching him and Smart Lady before reverting to dust.
- Small Role, Big Impact: Chie's death ended up being a plot point in #16-17 where her brother Yoshimasa tried to find out who murdered her while being unaware that it was Kiba, only for the incident with the Flyingfish Orphnoch result in him becoming the Armadillo Orphnoch, driven by madness into attacking people in an attempt to avenge his sister, which ended up with Takumi breaking out of his Heroic BSoD to become Faiz and protect people.
