* DomesticAbuse: Horrible subverted. Just about anytime Shizuku gets hurt by Haru, it's by accident. Since Haru has such a terrifying temper, he somehow catches Shizuku in the crossfire of his rampage. These accidental attacks are the reason why Shizuku often demands Haru to stay away from her and glares at him.

** Haru's intelligence also counts. Since his parents were told about their youngest son's intelligence, they paid more attention to him than Yuzan. This resulted in Haru being ignored by his older brother and him being picked on by Kenji. In his late teen years, Shizuku initially resents him because of his intelligence.



* IntelligenceEqualsIsolation: Played with. Shizuku has little to no friends prior to meeting Haru due to her constant focus on studying while Yamaken is intelligent and at times arrogant and merely hangs out with his gang because "idiots amuse [him]." Averted with Haru

* AloofBigBrother: Yuuzan.



* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Haru initially grows attached Shizuku because she stood up for him when his friends were treating him poorly and encouraged him to look forward to the time when he'd be surrounded by true friends. However, his situation actually leads to an obsession with Shizuku rather than truly liking her, and it takes time for him to develop real romantic feelings towards her.
* BerserkButton: Don't interrupt Shizuku's studies. Or else. Don't make light of their importance, either.
** If you do anything to hurt Haru's friends, he will kill you. Especially if it's Shizuku.



* {{Bishounen}}: Haru, Yuuzan, and Yamaken.



* BrutalHonesty: Shizuku can be extremely blunt that sometimes her honesty comes off as insensitive.
** Sasayan also does this if you get him angry enough.
* ChickMagnet: Haru and Yuuzan. Natsume is a gender-flipped example.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Haru tends to come off as this, because of his lack of experience in normal social interaction.
* CoolBigBro: Haru's cousin Micchan, often giving helpful advice to Haru and Natsume.



* CrazyJealousGuy: Haru for Shizuku, especially when it comes to Yamaken. He even passingly mentions that while he can't break Shizuku's legs to keep her from running away from him, he would gladly do so to Yamaken.



* DefrostingIceQueen[=/=]SugarAndIcePersonality: Shizuku.
* {{Delinquent}}: Haru.
* DitzyGenius: Haru has NoSocialSkills but he is smarter than Shizuku grade-wise.
* DoesNotLikeMen: Natsume, who has a hatred for men due to the fact that guys asking her out often leads girls hating her because she's popular with guys and guys hating her because she rejects them.



* DoggedNiceGirl: Ooshima.



* EmotionlessGirl: Shizuku.



* FieryRedhead: Natsume, but only towards the people she cares about. She's [[IceQueen cold]] to everybody else at school, because she hates attracting unnecessary attention from the boys.



* GirlishPigtails: Shizuku.



* HotBlooded: Haru.



* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Haru appears to be this to everyone else because he looks and acts like a delinquent but really has a {{hidden heart of gold}}. Yamaken surprisingly turns out to be this as well, initially debuting as a gang leader but turning out to be rich, intelligent, and has a habit of looking after Shizuku, [[spoiler:who he ends up developing feelings for.]]



* {{Meganekko}}: Ooshima. She says that the only reason she was elected a class committee member was because she wore glasses.



* NiceGuy: popular guy Sasayan, who manages to get along with everyone to a degree that his friends often find incredible.
* NoSenseOfDirection: Yamaken.



* PeekABangs: Yamaken.
* PerpetualFrowner: Shizuku and her brother.



* ShipperOnDeck: Natsume for Haru and Shizuku. [[spoiler: She gets very upset when Sasayan questions Haru's feelings for Shizuku.]]



* StealthHiBye: Haru.
* StrangeGirl: Though probably milder than most cases and definitely not as strange as Haru, Natsume is definitely not normal.
* SweetTooth: Yuuzan.



* TeenGenius: Haru and Yamaken.

[[EmotionlessGirl Shizuku Mizutani]] only has one thing in mind: getting good grades in calculus. To accomplish this goal, Shizuku has little interest in anything else. However, after delivering lesson notes to her resident {{delinquent}} classmate [[HotBlooded Haru Yoshida]], the latter is convinced that they are friends. Initially, Shizuku is intimidated by such a troublesome person, but she gradually notices that Haru is actually a [[HiddenHeartOfGold kind person]]. When Haru [[LoveConfession confesses]] to Shizuku, an [[OppositesAttract unlikely romance]] begins to blossom between them.
