* ArcFatigue: Many detractors of the anime complain that Ranze and Yoko's obsession with Shun takes up a lot of the anime's runtime and is quite unncecessary since we all know who he's going to end up with anyway.
* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic:
** The anime's ending "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Up5K_uItnwY Super Love Lotion]]" is the most memorable song to be associated with the series (largely due to the ending animation), and as pointed out in MemeticMutation below, it's only gotten more popular in the decades since.
** The opening is a lovely and lively samba piece, fitting for kooky yet heartfelt comedy.
* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff:
** UsefulNotes/{{Kuwait}}is love Tokimeki Tonight, as it was one of the first anime to [[https://www.redbullmusicacademy.com/lectures/fatima-al-qadiri-tokyo-2014 ever]] be shown. It's also fondly remembered in a few other Arab countries.
** Not only that, but Italy is the only country outside Japan to get all of the 30 volumes of the manga translated, as well as the spinoff in 9 volumes.
* HilariousInHindsight:
** The anime has a lot of similarities with ''Fanfic/MyImmortal'' (2006), from the main character being a dark-haired pale-skinned vampire who attends a school where she accumulates an UnwantedHarem and fights evil. Both series are also a FountainOfMemes, and are also criticized for the romantic subplots.
** The name of the werewolf that Sheila rejects before getting with her vampire husband? ''[[Literature/TheTwilightSaga Edward]]''.
* MemeticMutation:
** Ranze doing the jazz hands naked (except for the cape) in the ending credits has spawned numerous MMD parodies and fanart, on top of this it's also become infamous thanks to [=YouTube=]'s algorithm frequently showing the ending credits.
** Yoko being turned into a dog. It's even referenced on the series' official [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2017-06-06/tokimeki-tonight-ranze-and-shun-smooch-on-wedding-application-form/.117060 marriage applications]].
* {{Moe}}:
** Rinze looks very cute with his messy blonde hair and large blue eyes.
** Aira, [[spoiler:Ranze and Shun's daughter]], is an adorable, wide-eyed little girl.
* TheyCopiedItSoItSucks: While writers at [=AnimeNewsNetwork=] have praised the series, they also accuse it of [[https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/buried-treasure/2013-02-05/pile-of-shame-tokimeki-tonight ripping off]] ''Anime/UruseiYatsura'' because it blends the supernatural genre with an OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent romance.
* ValuesDissonance: [[spoiler: Taku marrying his first cousin and having a daughter with her.]]
