19	* ChickMagnet: Kurose easily attracts the attention of every female in the company.
20	* CrazyJealousGuy: Kurose is really jealous of Hanajima being with other guys up to the point of him calling the latter "slut" (he later apologizes when he realizes that he went to far.)

32	* PoorCommunicationKills: Hanajima and Kurose's problem wouldn't have escalated to this point if [[spoiler:the former understood that when Kurose meant "thank you" it means that he accepts his love]].

34	* UmbrellaOfTogetherness: Hanajima offers one to Kurose in the early part of the story, however, the romantic part doesn't kick in since Kurose is still in CrazyJealousGuy mode
