* [[invoked]]ColbertBump: The penguin {{Mascot}} toy that Rui keeps on his bed eventually received tons of attention when the press learns he has a toy. Originally, it was just the focal character of a kid's show that was't all that popular, but after the toy was spotted in one of Rui's pictures for a magazine, sales for this once obscure show and toy went through the roof.

* LostInTranslation: Episode 10's main punchline hinges on some Japanese wordplay. The sick dance instructor, ever the workaholic, murmurs to himself about a face (''men'') that he wanted [=Magi4=] to finish choreography with. The boys only hear the tail end and get him soumen. The pun didn't work quite as well in the official subtitles.

Of course, flirty L is the devil character, while sweet R is the angel character. They also play with the trope during their candid camera pranks; R pretends that he'd gotten possessed and snapped, while L played the trickster.

The first episode was pretty much devoted to trying to give the club a purpose, and they do perform some club activities in-show, but the club itself is very vague.
