Allowing her to not be the center of his world, nor him be the center of her world. His patience, kindness, and understanding nature allows him to win Ritsu's heart in the end.

* CharacterDevelopment: Goes from an anti-social bookworm to someone who's more open emotionally and branches out her interests such as playing videogames with Usa. By the end, she has a much wider circle of friends than she did at the start.
* DefrostingIceQueen: Initially very distant and aloof to everyone. Then she becomes more open and warm, making many friends along the way thanks to Usa's influence.

* FoolForLove: She'll often say SillyRabbitRomanceIsForKids and try to crush their dreams. But the moment an ex or admirer of hers shows any interest, she drops everything and willfully ignores reason and logic.
* HasAType: Asides from the AllGirlsWantBadBoys aspect, Shirosaki suggests that her outburst over Usa seemingly giving up on Ritsu implies that her ideal man is one who's [[DoggedNiceGuy persistent]] and [[SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan kind to the woman he loves]]. Essentially someone like Usa, though not Usa himself.

* ShamelessFanserviceGirl: A DeconstructiveParody of the archetype, as Usa is at first attracted to her physically, even despite her wretched personality. Few episodes in, and because she's always showing a lot of skin, Usa is literally unfazed and has gotten used to her appearance. Not helped by her childish behavior being a complete turnoff.
* ShipTease: With Shirosaki later in the manga.
* UnkemptBeauty: In contrast to Sayaka, Mayumi is rarely well-dress and groomed. Often showing lots of skin wearing as well.
