The first season:

  • First episode:
    • That flashback. "Japanese girls are so scaryyy!"
    • Shino thinking hair chopsticks are a deadly weapon.
  • Episode 2:
    • Shinobu constantly misleads Alice and Youko on the origins of the word "moe".
    • They spot a plane in the air, and Alice poetically wonders if it's headed to England. Aya kills the mood by saying that it's probably flying to Tokyo.
  • Episode 3:
    • The part where Aya gets her nickname "Ayaya", stemming from Karen misinterpreting Aya saying "Aya yo". Youko and Karen constantly chanting "Ayaya" sells the moment.
    • Karen revels her childhood promise to Alice, and her motivation for going to Japan — she wanted to return the pencil she borrowed from Alice.
  • Episode four:
    • Isami refuses to let Shino use the computer because she fears Shino would collect pictures of blonde girls like a stereotypical high school boy collects pornography.
    • Youko receives a letter in her shoebox and Aya spends the day fretting over it. They finally open the letter at the end of the day... and it turns out to be a practice letter written by Shinobu.
  • Episode 5:
    • Youko is a convenience store. One pork bun, please!
    • The segment where they draw pie graphs of what the others are comprised of. Shinobu says that Youko is 100% comedic retorts. Karen corrects it to 50% kindness and 50% comedic retorts. She then draws a graph for Aya, which is about 10% intelligence, 10% shyness... and 80% Youko.
  • Episode 6:
    • Yukari manages to expand Shinobu's blonde fetish to blue hair as well.
    • The "golden Karen, golden Alice" (golden axe, silver axe) dream sequence. There's no way Shino could ever choose!
    • While camping in the mountains, Aya noticing Shino, in "forest fairy" attire, floating downstream after she fell into the river.
  • Episode 7:
    • Alice and Karen's nice singing is supplanted by Shinobu's ill-fitting chanting and clapping.
    • Shino, Alice and Aya struggling to jog in P.E. class while chanting "fuwa fuwa."
    • Aya and Youko are eating lunch. Aya attempts to romantically feed Youko after watching a girl feeding her boyfriend saying "Aah." When Aya tries it, it comes out as a demented, monotone "AAaa--AAaaa."
  • Episode 9:
    • Aya says that her parents are out for the night, which the others acknowledge and then go back to their own conversations. Aya then clutches Youko with a teary look on her face, and Youko exclaims that Aya should just say if she wants everyone over.
    • Aya thanks the others for staying with her overnight so that she wouldn't be lonely. Too bad they're all in another room telling scary stories.
    • Aya's attempts to emulate Karen, and failing adorably at it.
  • Episode 12:
    • Aya is worried that the group will be split up in the new year, and Alice doesn't fret it too much, as not even national borders can separate them. Cut to them looking at the class assignments, seeing that Alice and Shinobu are in different classes, and Youko remarking that a classroom wall separating them. Alice lets out a high-pitched scream at the revelation.

    • Shino trying to reach out mentally to Alice two classrooms down... And Alice actually mentally feeling the message (though she gets the actual content wrong).

    • The twins' reaction to Aya coming clean to them about her own troubles.
    • The "Alice Meter".note

    • Alice and Ayaya eventually pressing Shino's Berserk Button when they talk about dying Alice's hair black to make her more like a delinquent.
    • Alice has gotten used to being in a class without Shinobu... because she has a Shino-based dakimakura that Kuzehashi-sensei made for her. Karasuma confiscates it, and when Shinobu goes to talk to her later, she's sleeping with it. Shinobu is pleased with the scene.
    • Aya puts a cardboard box with a cute face drawn in front of it on her head because her bangs got cut too short. She tries to hide her identity from Youko, but Youko figures out it's her when her blush is seen right through the box.

    • Shino invites Karen to sleep in her bed with her. Alice warns against it as the bed is small and Karen moves around a lot in her sleep. Shinobu's solution: Put Karen on the wall side so that, if Karen does kick Shino off the bed, she'll land on Alice's futon and "I'll still be in heaven." Given how the Imagine Spot of the solution involves Shinobu landing on top of her, Alice's sees it as "more like Hell!"
