| 1 | * AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Is Shougo a [[BloodKnight blood knight]] or a [[DirtyCoward dirty coward]]? His fellow Hakusen students don’t like him because he keeps turning sparring matches into street brawls. This is the reason he doesn’t do tournament, as he finds the rules to be restricting. He became [[TheResenter the resenter]] and joined King when he couldn’t defeat Yuu. All in all Shougo only seems to enjoy fighting when ''he'' has the advantage, something King’s CoDragons eventually called him out on when he kept procrastinating on dealing with Yuu. |
| 2 | * HoYay: Yuu and Izawa have a very ... ''intense'' relationship. Also between Yuu and Shin, especially in the live-action drama. Lampshaded by Shin: "Hey, I'm not that kind of guy!" |
| 3 | * InformedWrongness: The series tried to deconstruct the [[ArrogantKungFuGuy arrogant kung fu guy]] trope by presenting them as [[SoreLoser sore losers]] when they get angry when they’re defeated using street fighting tactics. For example, the Boxing Club members got really angry at Yuu when he knocked down Yamazaki in a boxing match by suddenly using grappling moves. Only for Nakamura to use the fact that Yuu was an amateur as an excuse. However, when Yamazaki goes along with it he’s presented as being in the wrong, with Shin and Nakamura telling him he pushed Yuu too far. |
| 4 | ** There is a lot of [[MoralMyopia moral myopia]] present in the series, as the street fighters regularly skew things in their favor by threatening to call the police, or not following the rules of sanctioned matches, but when the rules are against them they are presented as the victims. |
| 5 | ** Basically the martial artists are treated as wrong for being angry when street fighters challenge them to martial arts matches yet don’t follow the rules of those matches. |
| 6 | * {{Narm}}: A ''remarkably'' egregious instance of RougeAnglesOfSatin: |
| 7 | -->'''Masaki:''' That's why we're going to use-- gorilla warfare!\ |
| 8 | '''Assorted Thugs:''' Gorilla warfare?! |
