Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl: The main antagonistic spirit of Chapter 3 is the ghost of a girl that went missing near the cliffs and, naturally, possesses long stringy hair covering her face. 
That time is lessened when in the proximity of dangerous spirits, indicated by the loud beating of her heart.
Sprint Meter: The girl can only sprint for a limited amount of time before she tires out, indicated by the meter that appears at the bottom of the screen.One-Hit-Point Wonder: Touching or getting attacked by any of the malevolent spirits will end with the girl's death.Not Always Evil: While there are plenty of malevolent spirits, there are quite a few spirits who are sympathetic and need help, will not harm the girl at all and do their own thing, or just like to play creepy jokes on her.
They are only referred to as "little girl" or "girl" and "Sis".
No Name Given: Neither the main character or her sister are given names. Amongst these decorations include possessed dolls, a Tsuchinoko, a small mummy, and even a human skull! Nightmare Fetishist: Almost all of the things the girl collects end up as decorations for her room. On a related note, one of the spirits kills her if she walks in the street. The protagonist does not do this, which leads to Poro getting hit by a truck. There are also quite a few spirits that love to quickly pop out of nowhere when the player least expects it. Jump Scare: The first encounter with a spirit has the game slowly pause before zooming directly into the spirit's face while it lets out a terrifying scream. She feels that Poro died because he chased after a pebble that she absentmindedly threw onto the road and her inability to accept his death kept her from telling her sister the truth, leading to her disappearance. It's All My Fault: How the girl feels about the entire situation upon finding Poro's corpse. Unfortunately, that changes when she finds Poro's corpse. The little girl really wants to believe Poro simply ran away and didn't get run over by a truck. Guide Dang It!: It's very unlikely you'll find all the collectibles without help, especially the ones that require you to view a ghost in one part of town, then go find a collectible in a totally different area. Poro's death is similarly blacked out with his body replaced by a puddle of blood when the scene returns to the clearly traumatized little girl. Gory Discretion Shot: Whatever death the spirits have planned for the little girl, the player is thankfully spared with a Fade to Black and blood splattering across the screen. Most promotional material has thankfully done a good job keeping this a secret. First-Episode Twist: The game's tutorial looks normal enough, guiding you through the game's controls until it gets your dog killed. In The Stinger and post-game, she's now wearing an eyepatch. Eye Scream: At the end of the game, the little girl loses her eye to the mountain spirit who kidnapped her sister. However, they leave out the part about her dog getting killed and that she's in complete denial over his death. Exact Words: Most of the trailers and the promotional material says that the little girl is looking for her missing dog and older sister. Upon finding Poro's corpse, after mourning his death, she builds him a grave and once again leaves a flower to honor her beloved pet. She returns a necklace to the corpse of the Stringy-Haired Ghost Girl who had been chasing her and then leaves a flower for her, later feeling that there are some spirits who are just lonely and afraid. Due to the Dead: One of the most endearing aspects of the little girl is her respect for the dead. The only time a music track ever plays is during the credits. 
Diegetic Sound: The game lacks a soundtrack, presumably so you are able to listen better to the moans of the spirits and determine if they're close or not.As if to solidify this, barely a minute into the game, you watch something die. Darker and Edgier: Plenty of gruesome deaths, creepy spirits, and Jump Scares separate it from the usual NIS affair, even compared to htoL#NiQ.Bittersweet Ending: In the end, Poro is confirmed to be dead and the little girl lost her eye, but she was ultimately able to save her sister.
