* OnlyCoolPeopleMatter: Inverted. Morishige, the person with the least amount of Cool Points ends up essentially ruling over the people who used to be cool. At least the ones who aren't [[spoiler: dead yet]]. It's even mentioned by both Konno and Morishige that "they aren't at school anymore" and social standing and coolness mean nothing. This is [[ForeShadowing foreshadowed]] when we see Morishige pull The Hanged Man while doing her tarrot routine.

* WhamShot: Several. First one is in Volume 1 when Konno opens her cell phone and you can see [[spoiler: the mountain of dead classmates behind her]]. Another is when we get a full two pages devoted to a picture of [[spoiler: Hinata saving Konno from drowning]]. And then there's Volume 5. About halfway through, Konno finally realizes that [[spoiler: Hinata was the one who killed Usi]]. She begs him to tell her she's wrong and he hugs her. So you think that he's going to say that it's alright and he wasn't [[spoiler: the murderer]]. But no, instead we cut to his back where [[spoiler: the scythe is tied]] and realize that a. [[spoiler: Hinata was the killer]] and b. [[spoiler: that he'd had the scythe on him the ENTIRE TIME]]. Which was why he was against the whole stripping to prove your innocence idea that Konno came up with.

* SnowballLie: [[spoiler: Hinata's]] whole story. [[spoiler: He starts out by saying that he never ran into Usi or anybody else when, in fact, he did and was responsible for her death. He then tells more lies to cover up that one and more to cover up those. Kamiya is the one to eventually call him on it after he mentions the bandage on Usi's leg. She asks him how he knew about the bandage if he never saw Usi. After he's caught trying to kill Konno, he gives up entirely on trying to pretend that he's innocent. He explains to them about meeting Usi in the woods and accidentally killing her and about taking the scythe. It actually becomes a bit of a TearJerker moment when you realize her really did want to be a nice guy and help them all go home together]].
