* EarnYourHappyEnding: You need to score 200,000 points for Ai to [[spoiler:completely get over Yuki]].

** Even without being told, take a good look at Yuki in the opening movie or the third ending screen. [[spoiler:HIS ARM IS SKELETAL. Ending screen 2 also has a skeletal arm but you don't know who it belongs to.]]
** When the game over sequence starts and all the candy rains down, let it keep going. [[spoiler: A single pill will fall out of the sky in the end. This stops happening after the 50,000 point ending.]]

* InterfaceScrew: As you progress, the sweets on the title screen become medical supplies. [[spoiler: And Yuki becomes a skeleton. And then there were none.]]

* MoodWhiplash: [[spoiler:There's no warning that Ai is slowly dying. It looks happy, and then you progress and the tiles on the title screen start turning into syringes and pills while story segments point out how ill Ai-chan is. Also the music played during the game over sequence is rather melancholy considering how bright and cheerful the rest of the music is.]]

* NothingIsScarier: [[spoiler: After the 13th game over , Ai and Yuki are completely removed from the game. The pause screen and animated introduction also changes to reflect this. Also if you get the 50,000 point ending, but have yet to achieve the 200,000 point ending, Ai looks as though Yuki is still in the scenes- although Yuki does appear in the animated introduction.]]
* ScarySurpriseParty: The ending to Kashiwa Mochi Kai. [[spoiler: Ai's mother disappearing and the various spooky pictures you unlock all turn out to have mundane explanations.]]

* SoundtrackDissonance: The same cheery music will keep playing on the title screen, even after Yuki's true nature is revealed. [[spoiler: Even when Ai vanishes it'll be playing.]]

* EvolvingTitleScreen: As you lose more and more, [[spoiler:medical supplies will begin to replace the sweets on the top and bottom. After this, Ai will begin to look at Yuki with a shocked expression, and right after the 12th game over, Yuki turns into a skeleton. After the 13th loss, both of them are missing, but if you manage to score 50,000 points, Ai will return, and scoring 200,000 points will cause her to have a happier expression.]]
