* OlderThanHeLooks: He's 41 by the events of ''Lost Judgment'', but he looks more like he's in his early to mid 30's. It doesn't help that he looks nearly identical in flashbacks decades ago aside from having different hair.

* DissonantSerenity: {{Subverted}} before being played straight in the same scene, highlighting Shoho's contrasting personality traits regarding AD-9 and his [[NervousWreck usual demeanour]]. He has a massive emotional outburst when confessing about the truth of AD-9 to Kido, venting emotionally over accidentally having killed Waku through testing his new miracle drug, before recomposing himself when Kido wants to come clean about the whole mess despite the bad press, revealing that he deliberatly arranged for Kido to entrap himself with his name being on the AD-9 research papers before telling him this, so exposing Shono's crimes will only drag Kido down with him, ensuring he has to continue supporting him in his mad quest to perfect the drug. The tone shift and imposing manner in which he calmly explains how Kido ''will not'' be turning him in is so extreme as to verge on a split personality, highlighting his unshakable mania over the drug.
