* NoAntagonist: The primary conflict is the titular asocial scientist Syrup trying to bond with her friends and caring for her creation Gumdrop. Her rival, the WickedWitch Butterscotch, initially seems like the antagonist given that she wants to eat Gumdrop and surpass Syrup, but she only antagonizes her in a couple routes, and even becomes an uneasy ally in her route.

Romantic Two Girl Friendship has been renamed to Pseudo Romantic Friendship. All misuse and ZC Es will be deleted and all other examples will be changed to the correct trope.


* RomanticTwoGirlFriendship: Despite this game being an entry for a Yuri Jam and its creator being well-known for GirlsLove games, the romantic implications of Syrup's relationships with other female characters are greatly downplayed which makes it perfectly possible to interpret her good endings with Gumdrop or Butterscotch as just them becoming close friends.
