** Joshua and Yuuta share a fair amount pretty much from the first episode on. Yuuta sees Joshua singing in the rain and is so moved he starts crying. After he finds and successfully returns the missing gem in the following episode, Joshua caresses his face and the two stare into each other's eyes for a pronounced amount of time. Things kind of tone down afterwards, but Yuuta develops some sort of fanboyish crush on Joshua, gushing over him several times. And then there's the last episode, in which he cries over Joshua[[spoiler:'s apparantly dead body]]. When the latter gets up again, he holds Yuuta in his arms. Doesn't help that some people have pointed out their dynamic looks an awful lot like that of Keita and Kazuki from ''GakuenHeaven''...
** Mikhail manages to ramp up the HoYay in nearly every scene he's together with Yuuta. Somehow, he repeatedly manages to run into him and the ends up against Yuuta's chest, with sparkles and flushed cheeks and all. He continues this behaviour even if the two don't meet accidently, usually when Mikhail is embarassed about something and sort of flees into Yuuta's arms, ending up with his head cradled against the latter's chest.

** Joshua and Henri seem more like HeterosexualLifePartners on first glance, but it becomes full-fledged HoYay when looking at them on a slightly deeper level. They're the ones in the dorm that know each other for the longest time (Henri transferred in Joshua's first year at the school) and thus share a pretty close relationship. Henri is usually cold and stoic towards others, but lets Joshua get close to him on both a physical and emotional level. Joshua is the only one who knows Henri's birthday (and probably also [[DeathByChildbirth the drama around it]]) and is regularly concerned about his well-being. He comes up to him when nobody else does and in return, Henri also sticks with Joshua in situations nobody else would. Then there's also the fact that their families are generations-old business rivals and claim the two were destined to meet. And for added drama, Henri's family [[spoiler: plots to kill Joshua]]...

* HoYay: as almost expected from a series with an all-male cast, although the game itself is aimed at a male-female relationship. The anime has subtext of Joshua/Henri, Joshua/Yuuta and Yuuta/Mikhail for FanService.

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: Almost everything that has to do with the boys' pasts and families, since most of it was only more or less shortly mentioned in the character's respective focus episode. Special mention, however, goes to Joshua, Henri and the whole mess around their families and the connections between them. It's especially jarring since [[spoiler: the apparant rivaly between Henri's family and Joshua's family (although it's not completely clear which part of it)]] is actually what the [[spoiler: attempted assassination of Joshua]] was all about and the viewer only catches glimpses of that. Not to mention it's mostly left unclear how and why Sylvain, Sokurov, Ivy and Yenje (especially Yenje) take part in that.

* {{Fanon}}: This being a BoysLoveGenre series (probably comes from being set in a OneGenderSchool where everybody's a {{Bishonen}}...). Nope, despite one or two moments of HoYay (see below), it's not. In fact, even when you don't know it's based on an OtomeGame, it should be pretty obvious after a few episodes that the romantic focus (at least the bit that is there) is on interactions between Yuuta's sister and the boys rather than between the male cast. Especially at the point in the second-to-last episode where Joshua [[spoiler: expresses a certain amount of feelings for Yuuta's sister]] during a short backstage phonecall. If that isn't enough evidence, there's also the 14th episode, which has all the main characters trying to woo Yuuta's sister, albeit with varying success. The one who ''does'' get her in the end is [[spoiler: Joshua]].
