* OurSpiritsAreDifferent: The spirits in this universe are rather vague. For the most part of them, they look like featureless [[SupernaturalIsPurple purple]] humanoids with three black circles for the mouth and eyes, but sometimes wear clothes and accessories. They are supposedly [[OurGhostsAreDifferent deceased people]] as Mr. Commentary reminisces about his past life, and they can turn back into their human form if they are strong enough like Yuko. Some does not fit this description however: spirits like the fake Babe Ruth, Kojime's ancestor, and Mr. Living Things look identical to their human form (but could simply possess a naturally stronger lower dantian), while others like Zobiro, Shakejiro, and Opportunity are vague entities with even more vague origins.

* AndTheAdventureContinues: Parodied in the final chapter. The stock phrase that comes with a lot of manga cut short, "Our battle is just getting started!", permeates throughout the chapter as most of the characters say [[LeaningOntheFourthWall it feels like a day to say it]]. When Rena finally tries to give in, ''everyone'' gives up and gets bored before [[spoiler:turning in to move to their collective shared apartment complex]].

* ADayInTheLimelight:
** "code 14 / A DayInTheLife Of Rena Haze, Explained!", despite his title, put a large focus on Mr. Commentary's backstory and his trouble to fit in both in his life and his afterlife.
** "code 24 / Building the Salmon Empire" reintroduces Shakejiro, the salmon spirit seen two chapters prior, and expends on his character and his true intents. It would almost be a VillainEpisode if not for the fact that he is utterly incompetent.
** "code 35 / Janca's Jam" reveals Janca's backstory and why he was an antogonist at the start of the series, which includes numerous {{Cerebus Retcon}}s.
** "code 44 / Lonely, Lonely Sunshine" is entirely from Soya's perspective: there isn't a single spirit seen in this chapter and we see him trying to fill in the blanks himself.
** "code 46 / Ta and Pi, Runaways", although not from their perspective, is the first time the twins are put in an active role in the story since their introduction.

Joh eventually agrees to join her to counterbalance her mother's harshness, and is then immediately followed by Soya and Janca who also wish to support her. And then the Four Divine Eye-Pattern Lieutenants and the commander arrive out of nowhere. ''And then'' the entire BODY corp, for a whopping total of 17 StandInParents. Of course, Rumi didn't really take the whole situation very well.
