This Video Game contains examples of:

• All Myths Are True: Azakawa's legend of the Kotori Obake/Taking Spirit, the evil spirit haunting the forest and kidnapping children who wander inside. She is real, but the tale of her creation is a vicious lie.
• The Atoner: The 2022 remake reveals the villagers made the Kanzaki family into the village leaders as atonement for not doing anything to save Tsuyu Kanzaki when she was unjustly imprisoned and killed.
• Big Bad: In the original game, the Kotori Obake is a vengeful ghost who kidnaps children who step foot in her forest, and Shiori must rescue Sakuma from her and escape her to avoid becoming her next victim.
• Big Bad Ensemble: In the remake, the Taking Spirit is in competition with the God of the Forest, who is the one who turned her into an evil spirit and the one who really kidnapped Sakuma so he could overthrow Tsuyu, take back his forest, and being everyone under his thrall.
• But Thou Must!: When Sakuma is kidnapped, your only option is to go into the forest, despite being warned to avoid it at all costs.
• Character Portrait: The main characters each have several; since Suga doesn't speak, his portaits have to do the talking for him.
• Color-Coded Characters: Shiori's main outfit is bright yellow with an orange ribbon hairband. Suga wears all black. Mochizuki has his blue police uniform, and Sakuma-chan's school uniform is a dark pinkish-red.
• Connected All Along: The 2022 remake reveals that Shiori and Suga are the descendants of The Taking Spirit and the Stone Guardian respectively.
• Death of a Child: The Kotori Obake/Taking Spirit exclusively targets children, because her own children, including an infant, were brutally murdered.
• Don't Go in the Woods: According to the old legends, the Kotori Obake/Taking Spirit used to haunt the forest and mountains surrounding the village. Suga also repeatedly warns Shiori against going to the woods. And it's worse if it happens to be raining...
• Dying Town: Azakawa used to be a mining town, but their primary resources have dried up. As a result, they've stopped running the buses because there's so few people around to use them, and lack a proper inn or other establishment for guests to stay. The Government Official in the remake wants to destroy the archive in order to turn it into a resort, hoping this will save the town.
• Earn Your Bad Ending: Ending 6 in the remake is the hardest to get, even more so than Ending 1, due to the requirements being vague and not hinted at (unlike the other endings that give you a Player Nudge). It is also one of the worst endings, where Shiori sacrifices herself to the Forest God, who saves Azakawa Village from the Taking Spirit and ghost children by devouring them only so he can regain his power and subjugate the village after setting everything in motion in the first place.
• Fishing Minigame: The remake has an area in Azakawa Village where Shiori can fish 18 kinds of fish from three different spots of varying difficulty. It primarily consists of sitting still until a fish decides to bite, then mashing the confirm button until you reel it up.
• Foreshadowing: When exploring the museum at the beginning, Shiori can find weird memos with general statements like "The museum's closed" and "Where is your mother?". It hints that the manager can't speak.
• Golden Ending: Ending 1 is the happiest ending as Shiori and Suga make it out alive, and the Kotori Obake/Taking Spirit haunts the village no more, meaning the forest is back to normal and the town is safe.
• Bittersweet Ending: However the 2022 remake clarifies that the glowstone only erases memories. So while the Taking Spirit forgets about her grudge on the village, she also forgets about her love for her child. Her child forgets his own memories as well, but is happy that his mother won't hurt anyone again..
• Gods Need Prayer Badly: According to the 2022 remake, the more worshipers a god has, the greater their power. The God of the Azakawa Village forest had been reduced to a small snake due to losing his faith power.
• Guide Dang It!: Ending 6 in the remake. The other endings are all intuitive enough or have a Player Nudge in the right direction. This one has two requirements: make the right choices when talking to Miyako and Mochizuki during the first day at Azakawa Village (which at least plays a ringing sound when you get it right), but also avoid catching any fish during the second day (outside of the Big Azakawa quest as that will not count), and this is not hinted at despite being far more obtuse.
• Hate Sink:
• Original Game and Manga:
• The nameless Government Official only appears in one scene near the beginning, but establishes himself as a Smug Snake nonetheless. In said scene, he informs Suga, the manager of the local museum, that the government plans to demolish the museum to make room for land development. He proceeds to be rude and disrespectful to Suga, outright telling him he does not care if Suga ends up jobless, then when Sakuma objects, he tells her that her father would support the demolishment. Finally, when Shiori tells him that she is the heir to the museum and can shut him down, he rudely expresses disbelief before storming out in a huff.
• The first Ogami-san, though seemingly a benevolent hero of old, is revealed to have a dark secret. Running a system in which crimes are punished by selling the wives and children of the criminal into sexual slavery, he fell in lust with a village woman. To make her his, he falsely accused her husband of crimes to imprison her, before having her husband and unborn baby executed. She commited suicide and her vengeful ghost became the Kotori Obake.
• 2022 remake: The God of the Forest, resenting humans for not worshipping them like in the past, curses the Stone Guardian and Tsuyu Kanzaki for accidentally killing him. Which results in the Stone Gurdian going mad with desire and Tsuyu becoming the Taking Spirit. Ultimately, all the sorrow and deaths at the hands of the Stone Guardian and Taking Spirit can be traced back to him, and yet he blames everyone but himself for what happened.
• Heroic Sacrifice: At Ending 1, Shiori and Suga use the glowstone to purify the Taking Spirit and the ghost children. However the 2022 remake clarifies that the stone doesn't purify them, it just erases their memories. Which means that not only the Taking Spirit and the ghost children will forget their grudge, but the Taking Spirit and the White Child will forget about each other. He's satisfied with it, as his mother won't hurt anyone anymore.
• Kids Are Cruel:
• The reason Sakuma-chan spends so much time at the museum is because her bullying classmates generally don't hang around there.
• Suga-kun was also picked on and isolated as a child. In particular, the bullies liked to claim that their Missing Mom was actually the Taking Spirit.
• Laser-Guided Amnesia: The glowstones' main power.
• It was used in the past by Shiori's family to make her lose all her memories of the village so she won't be targeted by the Taking Spirit.
• In Ending 2, Suga uses it to wipe Shiori's memories again.
• In Ending 1, Shiori and Suga use it on the Kotori Obake/Taking Spirit and the spirits of the dead children. With it, their forget about their grudges and ascend to the afterlife. Unfortunately that means the Taking Spirit and the White Child forget about each other.
• Life Meter: The night glowstone protective charms function like this; if you're caught by a spirit while you've got one, it will shatter in your place.
• Multiple Endings: There are five variations, dependent upon whether the player collects one or both of two particular items, and what they do with them.
• Ending 1: Their Promise. Shiori and Suga reunite the Kotori Obake/Taking Spirit with the spirit of her unborn child, pacifying her. When the spirits of the children killed by her curse appear, Suga uses the night glowstone to ward them off. The glowstone makes all the spirits lose their memories and without their grudges keeping them bound to the land, they ascend to the afterlife. As a result, the curse is broken, and Suga regains his voice.
• Ending 2: The Vanished Promise. Shiori makes Suga keep the night glowstone for protection, so he survives, and they escape together. However, when seeing her off at the station, Suga uses it to erase her memories again.
• Ending 3: The Promise's Guardian. Although the Kotori Obake/Taking Spirit is reunited with her child, the spirits of those she killed overwhelm her and continue the curse. Since they're afraid of Suga, he has to stay in Azakawa, while Shiori is forced to leave for her own safety.
• Ending 4: The Promise He Kept. Shiori accepts the night glowstone from Suga, and he sacrifices himself to protect her. After his funeral, Shiori leaves, and continues to be haunted by the Kotori Obake/Taking Spirit whenever it rains. But as long as she keeps the glowstone with her, she's protected...
• Ending 5: The Broken Promise, the Fulfilled Promise. Without even a glowstone for protection, Suga is forced to lash out at Shiori to ensure she doesn't follow him. Though she's rescued from the forest, Shiori can't escape the Kotori Obake/Taking Spirit's curse, and returns to Azakawa.
• A Door Left Closed, exclusive to the remake: Shiori decides not to open the book at the beginning of the game and never goes to Azakawa Village.
• Husk of a Brief Summer, exclusive to the remake: If Shiori refuses the offer by Officer Mochizuki to drive her to the Archive and then backs out of meeting the caretaker, she is taken into questioning for trespassing and told never to come near the village again. She never does and instead goes through the rest of her life keeping her emotions to herself.
• Ending 6, exclusive to the remake: Forest God's Promise. Added in the 2022 remake, Shiori realizes the snake that captured Sakuma is the God of the Forest in the village. Since most people in the modern era don't believe or worship them like they used to anymore faith, he had been reduced to a small snake....a snake that the Stone Guardian and Tsuyu Kanzaki killed in the past. He took revenge by cursing them, resulting in the Stone Guardian losing his sanity and Tsuyu becoming the Taking Spirit. Recognizing Shiori as a descendant of the Taking Spirit, the Forest God tells her that if she wants to life the curse and save Sakuma, she must sacrifice herself. Later the god exterminates the spirits and lifts the curse, but Shiori is dead and Sakuma and Suga are shown mourning her.
• Extra Ending, also exclusive to the remake: No Need for Promises. The 2022 remake add a bonus scenario showing what happened to the village after the curse was broken during Ending 1.
• Player Nudge: The remake gives hints that did not exist in the original towards getting the endings that require Koutaro's luminous stone. A flashback has Shiori, while walking in the forest, stopping to notice and point out a hidden area on the left of a bridge, which leads to the stone, and the White Spirit outright tells Koutarou to get the stone.
• Poor Communication Kills: Justified in that Shiori can't learn about what happened without endangering her life.
• Ship Tease: While there was nothing explicit in the original game, the Extra Ending in the remake teases the overwhelmingly popular Shiori/Suga pairing by having the matchmaking farmer ponder about hooking the two of them up.
• Sins of Our Fathers:
• The Kotori Obake/Taking Spirit hates Suga because he is the last known descendant of the first Ogami-san/Stone Guardian, the man who ruined her life.
• In Ending 6 of the remake, it's revealed Shiori is a descendant of the Taking Spirit. Which the God of the Forest uses to guilt-trip her into becoming a sacrifice to lift the curse of Azakawa Village.
• Title Drop: The forest surrounding the museum is described as 'the forest of drizzling rain' several times.
• Town with a Dark Secret: Azakawa Village seems like a quaint little village under the protection of a generational line of heroes (the Ogami-san/Stone Guardian), but it is eventually revealed that the first such hero was a Small-Town Tyrant who instituted a system where criminals would be forced to sell their wives and children into sexual slavery, and they were kept in a prison in the forest to be tortured and raped. This is what turned an innocent woman into the Kotori Obake/Taking Spirit; the whole legend involving her is a malicious lie.
• Wham Line: In a series of flashbacks, Shiori recalls her past playing with a boy. Then this line from her reveals who the boy is:I made a promise to protect Suga-kun!
