** Some of Akebi's lines are chock full of disturbing implications that nobody (except Mizuki) seems to realize.



* WholeEpisodeFlashback - Taken to a whole new level: Three of the chapters are dedicated to Sumire's musing about her earlier childhood. These chapters are named, quite aptly, Sumire 10 Sai!!.

Sai!!. Hilariously, Renge and Akebi go from balking at the obvious FridgeHorror that the Old Man has been doing this for six years, to eagerly anticipating the third flashback.

* LaserGuidedKarma - Takao chides Sakura for going out of his way to get himself involved in other people's business, such as molestation and bullying, and thinks he's better than Sakura because he doesn't bother himself with that. Afterwards he gets beaten up by a thug, with tons of people passing by and watching, but nobody doing anything. It's especially driven home when he looks out to crowd to help [[spoiler: only for him to seeother Takaos walking around.]]

* OnlySaneMan - Renge and Mizuki both fit this, which is uncommon because in media it's usually a trope reserved for one person. Then again, with Sumire you probably need more than one person to you remind you how ridiculous it is.
