| 9 | |
| 10 | * AttentionWhore: Everything Shin does, whether forming a band or joining the kabuki club, is because he always wants to be center of attention. |
| 11 | * ButtMonkey: After joining the kabuki club, Shin is subjected to a lot of physical comedy. |
| 12 | * CampStraight: [[spoiler: Turns out this is Hanamichi's real personallity and the "macho" façade was beacuse a previous girlfriend of his didn't see him as a man but as a sister figure.]] |
| 13 | * HonorBeforeReason: As much as he dislikes the drama club president's mistreatment, Kazuma refuses to leave the drama club because he think it would a jerk move to leave before the upcoming school festival. [[spoiler:Reading Kurogo's script makes him change his mind.]] |
| 14 | * InformedDeformity: Maruko is commented on to be "Short, fat and ugly". Aside from the lack of height, neither of the other two things look even remotely accurate. |
| 15 | * JadedWashout: Hanamichi is used to be a passionate dancer, even getting accredited when he was only ten, until some unmentioned incident caused him to give up on dancing. |
| 16 | * LadyLooksLikeADude: Kaoru, which makes recruiting her into the club difficult because kabuki is an all-men discipline. |
| 17 | * RedOniBlueOni: The cheerful, impressionable Kurogo is red and the calm, rational Tonbo is blue. |
| 18 | * TechnicianVersusPerformer: The kabuki club has a duel with the drama club to see who can use the auditorium's basement for the Kochi festival by performing "The Medicine Pebbler." Yane from the drama club delivers her lines as quickly and efficiently as possible, without skipping a beat. Shin, on the other hand, uses a heartfelt and emotional performance. [[spoiler:The kabuki club wins.]] |
| 19 | * TheStoic: Tonbo rarely emotes. |
