*ShockingMoments: The anime hits us with this in the first episode. At first it looks like a cute girl and her mom talking about finally meeting dad. Then, while they're in the car, another vehicle appears to Misuzu's shock (we're not shown what exactly happens, but the depiction of flowers slowly falling tells us all we need to know). With the episode getting darker as it goes on, it's clear this isn't your typical {{shojo}} anime.

*MemeticMutation: In Italy, the anime's title is "Milly, un giorno dopo l'altro" (Milly, one day after another). Italian fans have joked that it should be called things like "Milly, una rogna dopo l'altra" (Milly, one trouble after the other) or "Milly una sfiga dopo l'altra" (Milly, one misfortune after the other) because of how much BreakTheCutie the main character goes through.

** Thomas and Mary crossed it when they replaced Sarah's painting with a blank canvas, which she ended up submitting to the art contest, and gleefully rubbing it in her face later. Sarah, who has a faint constitution, is so stressed she starts shedding tears and almost faints. It's one of those moments where you want to reach into your television screen and smack both kids for being so cruel to the show's resident IllGirl. Thankfully Arthur saves the day by riding Alexandra to the train stop and racing against time to submit the correct entry, and Sarah ends up winning.
