* In the beginning of the first novel, Ana is [[{{Squick}} using Grey's toothbrush on purpose]]. It's supposed to convey her physical longing for him, but it comes off as disgusting rather than sexy/romantic. When she later tells him about it, for absolutely no reason at all, he's ''[[HorribleJudgeOfCharacter pleased]]'' by it.

And then the fact that the MediaWatchdog of France thought the rating was ''too high'' and deserved the equivalent of an All-ages rating.
