When she reveals the swimsuit she was wearing under her parka to Takkun, the latter tells her to cover it with the parka, as he knows that were she to go around the resort they are in wearing it, she would wind up attracting the attention of every male present.






** At the start of the series, Ayako had fully expected and supported the idea that Takkun would get together with Miu. This is a big part of why Takkun's confession blindsides her so much. It's also the reason for the series's title.

* ChangingYourselfForLove: Takkun fell in love with Ayako when he was ten, and resolved to better himself to become a person worthy of her love, who could protect her and help her raise Miu.

* DatePeepers: After Ayako rejects Takkun, Miu tells her that he already got a girlfriend and has a date that day, telling her exactly when and where to make sure she follows them.
