Song List
- heart-stirring
- unknown-x
- hartmanns
Heartly Paranoia provides examples of:
- Anti-Frustration Features: When both Koishi's and Boyfriend's arrow charts move to overlap, Koishi's become more transparent to avoid any confusion as to what arrows you're supposed to press.
- Creepy Child: Koishi for sure. If the knife she pulls out for her right pose doesn't tip you off, it's likely when she demonstrates her power over the subconscious by turning the whole background red, with some photo-realistic eyes included for good measure. And that's not getting into the sinister look she sport's throughout said sequence in "hartmanns".
- Interface Screw: Having the power over the subconscious, Koishi invokes this to varying degrees throughout the latter two songs.
- Monochromatic Eyes: Koishi sports completely blank-white eyes to highlight her Empty Shell nature. While fairly cute by default, they take on a more menacing variation by the third song when the background goes red.
- Mythology Gag: The mod as a whole references the fan-music video Unconsious Requiem, being based off of Koishi's Limit Break from Urban Legend In Limbo, having her appear next to a ringing phone booth while brandishing a knife for one of her pose, all of which is itself a reference to the Urban Legend of Mary-san. To top it all off, the background even goes red with creepy photo-realistic eyes to complete the homage, with Koishi at her most psychotic by the third song.
