* {{Meganekko}}: Kurokawa, again. Sometimes, particularly when she's studying in later chapters, Hidari also wears glasses.


* SchoolgirlLesbians: Kagami towards Hidari.


* GenreDeconstruction: Anywhere else, the situation Yoshinori finds himself in -- crossdressing and having people attracted to him -- would be PlayedForLaughs (Manga/RanmaOneHalf, anyone?). But here, Yoshinori feels how the situation gets to him, with his attraction to both Kurokawa and Hidari, and manifesting emotional turmoil due to his fear of hurting either of them, his coming to grips with the fact that he's becoming a man whether he wants to or not, the impulsiveness that comes with being a teenager and how it affects those around him, etc.

* BiTheWay: Wataru, although it may have been a joke on his part, but it's really hard to tell considering his serious expression when he made the comment.
** His relationship to Yuki also gives his best friend Yoshinori problems with this. He already loves both Hidari and Minamo but as Yuki he can't really say no to Wataru because of their friendship. The fact that their dates make him feel like a real girl doesn't make it easier either.


* SeriesHiatus: In 2007, after the publication of the seventh volume, the manga went on hiatus for more than two years. One unintentional side effect of this is that Creator/{{Tokyopop}}, the manga's North American licensor, shut down operations before the final volume could be published, leaving it an uncompleted series in English.


Compare with ''Manga/WanderingSon'', one of very few series like ''Yubisaki Milk Tea'' to actually take transgender themes seriously.

* AlwaysSecondBest - Kodama would be prefer to be in second place since you don't get so much attention then. Minamo disagrees on that, saying that no one want to be number two, which leads Kodama to correctly conclude that she must be in love.

* CuteSportsClubManager - Nobuko for the boys soccer team in the high school. Yoshinori and Wataru wonder why she has the position in a boys team but guess she is the type who supports others. Yori may also count as she starts a girls soccer team in the middle school with Hidari, Yu and others.

* UnsettlingGenderReveal: Happens to Wataru in chapter 68; however, he's forgiving of this, especially after encouragement from Kurokawa.

* TheBeautifulGame: Plays a role several times. Yoshinori played soccer back in middle school but stopped because if he got too much muscle from it, it would be harder for him to pass as a girl. His friend Wataru however continues as a good player. Meanwhile Hidari also is happy playing soccer. First for fun, but when Yori creates a girls soccer team at their school she recruits Hidari at the same time.
