"Friend A" is the Mean, since she casually throws around the term "aspie," albeit without not understanding what it means, and comes off as somewhat obnoxious. Tatsuki is the In-Between, since she's a decent person at heart, albeit somewhat withdrawn and lacking in social skills.

!The manga contains examples of:

*AllThereInTheManual: The post-story bonus pages contain various information, such as some of the characters' last names and how Keita met Tatsuki.
*BitchInSheepsClothing: Keita. He seems like a NiceGuy at first glance, but in reality, he's a manipulative, abusive {{Jerkass}}.
*BittersweetEnding[=/=]NoEnding: Tatsuki breaks up with her abusive boyfriend, but starts making progress toward accepting hersef. The author said that her friends had different impressions of the ending, and that she herself believes that it isn't necessarily a happy ending, with some things remaining unresolved.

*CharacterTics: Tatsuki frequently puts her hand on the back of her head, often while trying to laugh off an awkward moment. This causes Tatsuki to see one of her bruises.
*DisproportionateRetribution: Keita shoves Tatsuki to the ground just for answering her phone while talking to him.
*DomesticAbuser: Keita. He hits Tatsuki whenever she does something he doesn't like, and some of the things he says to her, such as his parting TheReasonYouSuckSpeech, also come off as emotionally abusive.
*FirstNameBasis: While the manga is set in Japan, all the characters are close enough that they use first names with each other.
*TheFriendNobodyLikes: "Friend A," the nameless mutual friend of Tatsuki and Aoi's. In addition to her using "aspie" as an insulting term, she gets on Aoi's neves. When Aoi says she's glad to spend time with Tatsuki without "her" around, Tatsuki laughs and agrees.
*HarshWordImpact: When Keita tells Tatsuki that she's making too many mistakes, an arrow from his speech bubble stabs her in the head.
*HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Tatsuki's suggested to be this, as she chooses to tell her boyfriend of six months that she's autistic, rather than her friend that she's known since middle school (in other words, about 5-7 years, since both are 19 at the start of the story). It would also explain why she ended up with someone like Keita.
*InelegantBlubbering: Tatsuki breaks down in tears after Aoi accepts her.
*InnocentlyInsensitive: Tatsuki's friend calls her an "aspie" without knowing what it means, or that Tatsuki has Asperger's. In the bonus pages, "Friend A" protests that she would have stopped if someone had said something to her.

When he calls Tatsuki out on making mistakes, he tells her to think about all the trouble it would cause him as a full-timer. When Tatsuki breaks up with him, he insists that she quit her job, since otherwise it would be awkward, never even considering the possibility of quitting himself.
*{{Jerkass}}: Keita, when all's said and done. There isn't any kinder way to describe someone who willingly hits and belittles his girlfriend.
*ManipulativeBastard: Keita's good at seeming like a nice, understanding boyfriend, but this seems to be a calculated ruse to get her to do what he wants. Even as they're breaking up, he still convinces her to quit her job to avoid potentially awkward situations.
*MeaningfulName: The title, Sazanka, refers to a broadleaf tree that, in the language of flowers, means "being earnest" and "overcoming difficulties."

*NoNameGiven: Tatsuki and Aoi's mutual friend is called "Friend A" in the post-story notes.

*TheReasonYouSuckSpeech:
** Keita while beating up Tatsuki.
-->'''Keita''': Shut up. What the hell are you doing, snapping out like that? I laid out rules for you. And since you don't follow them, [[ItsAllAboutMe I end up having to bear all the burden]]! You can't even do basic stuff! You can't do anything!
** Keita also delivers one to Tatsuki after their breakup, with a smile on his face.
-->'''Keita''': You sure are something, Tatsuki. You pretend to be a prize, but in reality, you aren't worth it at all.
*WouldHitAGirl: Keita shoves Tatsuki to the floor for taking a phone call while talking to him. When Tatsuki has a breakdown, Keita slaps her across the face, pulls her hair and kicks her in the stomach.
