Basic Trope: A tragic event that leads a character to lose hope.
* Straight: Ken kills Sayaka, which causes Chihaya to lose all hope.
* Alternatively, Chihaya is raped, causing her to lose all hope.
* Exaggerated:
* Chihaya loses hope to such a degree that she commits suicide.
* Chihaya loses hope to such a degree that she becomes a Nietzsche Wannabe.
* All of Chihaya's friends and family die, on the same day she loses her house and her ability to walk. She'll never be able to dance again.
* Downplayed: Heroic BSOD
* Justified: Fate has dealt Chihaya a losing hand. It's natural to feel that things will never get better.
* Chihaya suffers from depression as a result of Sakaya's death, or survivor guilt as a result of not being able to stop Ken.
