1* CrossdressingVoices: Serge, Gilbert, Rosemariné and Sebastien are voiced by Creator/NorikoOhara, Creator/YukoSasaki, Creator/YoshikoSakakibara and Creator/YokoOgai, respectively, in the OVA.
2* DevelopmentHell: See ExecutiveMeddling below.
3** SavedFromDevelopmentHell: Same deal.
4* ExecutiveMeddling: Averted. [[DevelopmentHell It apparently took Keiko Takemiya nine years]] to get this series published because she refused to censor it.
5* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: There is no official English translation, and until around 2008, there wasn't even a fan one.[[labelnote:*]]Also no, the terrible translations of the first few volumes done by Obsession don't count.[[/labelnote]] The first six volumes have been scanlated thanks to the combined efforts of first Livejournal user Persepolis130, later Scarlet Carnival, and most recently the Tumblr-based Artemis Project; other than that, there are only text translations of a few later volumes. Even the Japanese print volumes can be elusive and expensive, although one can download raws both legally and not. For avid manga readers, it's series like this that have started them down the path to learning how to read and understand Japanese -- and with the very flowery language and stylistic character usage, you really have to be fluent in and have a good grasp of Japanese literature already. (About the only saving grace is that at least there's furigana.)
6** As of 2021, all 17 volumes have been scanlated, over twenty years after [[https://web.archive.org/web/20011122114219/http://www.obliviousgirl.net/monochrome/kaze.html first translation attempts.]]
7* NoExportForYou: And sadly, given some of the subject matter, it'll be something of a miracle if this series ''does'' ever see an official English-language release.
8* PlayingAgainstType: Creator/YoshikoSakakibara voices Rosemariné in the OVA. Until then, she doesn't usually play {{Bishonen}} characters.
9* PortmanteauSeriesNickname: ''[=KazeKi=]''.
