Each of the three moles fought during the tutorial has their own dialogues during battle where Hero explains a bit about emotions:

Angry tutorial

* Hero: Ah! It looks like this Sprout Mole is angry! Like us, Sprout Moles also fell emotions.
* Hero: Since this Sprout Mole is angry, its attack is higher.
* Hero: But in the other hand, it lowers its defense!
* Aubrey: So what you're saying is now is the perfect time to strike! Come on, Omori! Let's do this!

Happy tutorial

* Hero: Oh! I see... This Sprout Mole is happy!
* Hero: In that case, it has a higher chance to hit our weak spots and do more damage.
* Hero: But this also means it has a higher chance of missing!

Sad tutorial

* Hero: Hmm... This Sprout Mole seems a bit sad...See how it's curled up in fetal position?
* Hero: That means it won't do as much damage as normal...
* Hero: But it'll also take less damage to heart and will lose juice instead.
* Kel: How sad... Let's put it out of its misery!

Trivia

The four Lost Sprout Mole that are fought in the beggining of day two are almost identical to the Lost sprout mole found in Vast forest, the only exception are that each of them will drop a Show ticket, and while angry the chance of doing a normal attack are 5% higher.

During the first encounter with King Crawler, it will summon the Pyrefly forest variant of Lost sprout mole, if killed by the player, it will grant its spoils, whatever if killed by King Crawler, the player will not receive any reward.

The tutorial Lost Sprout Mole uses a different 'run around' skill, that is slightly stronger than the usual 'run around' the other variants use, likely because the player would receive no damage if the original formula was used.
