* WhatAnIdiot:
** Tsubaki, multiple times. Part of it is due to his naïveté, part because he has had the IdiotBall surgically implanted and partly because his girlfriend is, quite honestly, ''really weird.''
** There's also Ueno, who ''still'' has no idea that Tsubaki and Urabe are dating -- they may not say it out loud, but their reactions to each other are very unsubtle.
** Urabe gets the Idiot Ball in the base-breaking Idol arc when kidnapped and forced to pretend she's the said idol. She just goes along [[ForgotAboutHisPowers instead of grabbing scissors and escaping ASAP]]. Coupled with Tsubaki's inability to realize the idol is pretending to be Urabe, despite her doing a poor job at it, and despite that "Urabe" has smaller breasts than usual, which he's already groped and seen exposed...

fetish fuel was removed from the wiki, unfortunate implications need citations.


* FetishFuel: This manga ''runs'' on Fetish Fuel. A short list: glasses, spit/drool, finger-sucking, [[ReiAyanamiExpy stoicism,]] weird tan lines, [[BeachEpisode bikinis,]] short girls...
** Plus short hair (the protagonist's personal turn-on), exhibitionism, school swimsuits and more than a little LesYay.

*** HadakaApron!
** We have eating raw bacon while wearing cat ears. ...Wait, what?
*** [[BaconAddiction Everything's Better With Bacon]]!
*** which furthered into a hinting of a CatGirl fetish.
** Face masks, fevers... when did this turn into ''Manga/AiKora''?
** More recently, moles (the skin features not the furry animals, luckily) and grapes!
** Urabe seems to like going barefoot more often in later chapters.



* UnfortunateImplications: A girl who knows of Akira and Urabe relationship proposes to Akira that she pretty much be his mistress. The reason he turns this down is because of Urabe's "mind reading" aside from how wrong it would to cheat on her.
