** One chapter has Mizubuchi turn Homura around because she was going to change clothes in the club room. What she neglected to mention was that she was changing ''Sanae'', whichcworks just as well since she teeats the mannequin as a girlm

* BookDumb: There's Kisaragi, but then there was one strip that the college-prep stream student Uozomi observed GA's non-art curriculum is far less rigorous than his, indirectly implying ''all'' students in GA (at least Awara) are this.

* BaitAndSwitch: The origins of Awara's "President's House". The way Tono told it in the beginning, she made it seem like the House was made in order to comfort Awara, who at the time was the only Art Club member and consistently attended club activities even though no one else showed up. What ''really'' happened was that Tono was so annoyed by her persistence that she made the House so she could leave her alone. Classic Tono.

* SiblingYinYang: While the case of {{Bokukko}} versus NonActionGuy didn't seem too out of ordinary, their parents thought her older brother was [[IllBoy too ill]] for her to make a physical response--as a result, while she kept being pwned at home, she gets more gratification outdoors. Like being a {{delinquent}}.

* SternTeacher: There are a couple in the school. Sonoma tries to be this but often fails when it comes to Noda and Tomokane, but the fashion design teacher is notorious for her harsh criticisms. Her class itself averts this, as she lets the students read up on any materials they need to finish their assignments at their own pace--but that time to themselves is the reason she expects them to have come up with something rather than slacking off.

* ShaggyDogStory: Awara's ''kamishibai'' project for a preschool ends up as this. The story's development process, thanks to the efforts of the GA crew, evolved into a somewhat passable story of a sprite gathering her rainbow colore friends to take the color back from a witch. Despite all of the work they put into it, the children only paid attention to

* BookEnds: Chapter 19 opens and closes with Awara and Uozumi hitting each other on the head. In the beginning, Uozumo smacks Awara for being so slow getting inside school, while at the end Awara returns the favor due to Uozumi fretting about going home in the rain without an umbrella.

* AlienLunch: The dark hotpot in episode 12 of anime. Although the episode concentrated on the one made by the GA-1 girls, apparently things are worse for your traditional Art Club Hazing...

* ArtEvolution: The first three chapters were drawn for the later closed magazine ''Comic Gyutto!''. It was later picked up by ''Manga Time Kirara Carat''. The break was less than a year but the change in drawing style between is noticeable. Comparing the covers of volumes 3 and 4 shows the character's eyes have gradually become smaller and their heads have become narrower as well.

* BookDumb: There's Kisaragi, but then there was one strip that the college-prep stream student Uozomi observed GA's non-art curriculum is far less rigourous than his, indirectly implying ''all'' students in GA (at least Awara) are this.

* SnakeOilSalesman: One chapter has Kisaragi talk about how she got her pencil stash from a stationary store. She was tricked into buying an old, unsold bx of pencils by an otherwise kindly old woman, under the impression that it was a brand used by famous historical figures and that it would bring her luck. When she later talks to the old woman's adult son, he mentions that other customers have also been tricked by her.

* ShipTease: Numerous times between Uozumi and Awara. They're the oldest members of the Art Club, who has been around since before Awara became ClubPresident, and they share intimate moments when reminiscing about their shared history in the club. In fact there was a time where the two were the only remaining members of the club, and Uozumi promised to Awara that he'll stay with her to the very end.

* OjouRinglets: The vice president of the Equestrian Club sports RegalRinglets hairstyle, with two prominent curls framing her face. It is truly appropriate for a leader of a club that is regarded as Elite, and the vice president herself is seen as a high-standing individual, as her club members call her "lady".

* AsLongAsItSoundsForeign: Downplayed with Marianne van Trienen, a French exchange student featured in volume 3. Although the characters repeatedly mention that she's French, her surname is actually Dutch.

** When the girls are trying to fold origami roses for a bouquet, Tomokane somehow manages to fold a perfect Kawasaki rose from a blue paper when she's trying to make a morning glory, which is much simpler. Quite a fitting accident, given that blue roses apparently symbolizes "miracle".

** Once, Kisaragi loses her spectacles for an entire chapter, and is forced to somehow navigate her classes with pretty much zero eyesight. The chapter ends with the teachers praising the work she's completed during the day, claiming that they're the best she's ever done. Kisaragi herself reels with shock when she gets to see ''what'' exactly she made during that BlindWithoutEm period.

* TerribleArtist: Homura, especially evident in the StorybookEpisode discussed above. [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/GA-Homura-witch.jpg Or maybe an example now.]]

-->'''[[color:yellow:Yellow]]''': Kisaragi\\
'''[[color:orange:Orange]]''': Nodamiki
-->'''[[color:red:Red]]''': Tomokane
-->'''[[color:green:Green]]''': Namiko
-->'''[[color:black:Black]]''': Professor

-->'''[[color:red:Red]]''': Tomokane
-->'''[[color:yellow:Yellow]]''': Namiko

* {{Expy}}: Nietzsche from ''VideoGame/YggdraUnion'', art directed by Kiyudzuki-sensei, is based on Noda; Milanor has shades of the younger Tomokane, and in the anime, she was given [[Creator/MiyukiSawashiro his voice actress]]. As the manga continued after ''VideoGame/YggdraUnion'' was released, Kiyudzuki went on to incorporate some of its characters back into ''GA;'' Tono-sensei has a strong resemblance to Gulcasa, and Same-chan-sensei is a dead ringer for Flone.

* ImagineSpot: Kisaragi, frequently.

-->'''[[color:yellow:Yellow]]''': Kisaragi
-->'''[[color:orange:Orange]]''': Nodamiki

-->'''Namiko''': She's the complete opposite of Noda. Noda's got talent, but she's [[CloudCuckooLander moody]].
-->'''Professor''': You (Kisaragi) are not envious of other people's success. When you did your best but weren't selected, you were frustrated with yourself.

* ImprobableChopsticksSkill: Tomokane is able to catch a fly with a pair of chopsticks. Eating rice by just holding them in the middle is an other matter however...
