| 3 | * The last chapter/episode. Sakamoto is leaving Gakuban High school to go travel overseas, everyone he has ever befriended started shouting goodbye to him tearfully from their classroom window, saying how they'll never forget him and Atsushi promises to study harder so he can meet him again someday. |
| 4 | * In the previous three chapter arc, Atsushi's shame over being unable to meet Sakamoto as an equal, a goal that's implied to be at least partly motivated by his crush on Sakamoto, being twisted by Fukase into a desire to attack Sakamoto, is pretty genuinely upsetting, especially when Atsushi snaps out of Fukase's brainwashing and breaks down. There isn't much about this subplot that's played for laughs. |
| 5 | * Sakamoto implies he goes to the nurse's office a lot, and it's implied that his stated reason for leaving at the end of the series isn't entirely truthful. This has led to the popular theory that he's actually [[SecretlyDying suffering from some sort of terminal illness]], which is why he's adopted his "live life to the fullest, regardless of what anyone thinks" philosophy. The implications of the this retroactively make the very premise of the story pretty poignant. |
| 6 | * When everyone says goodbye to Sakamoto, he noticeably has a [[http://imgur.com/zZnz4Pt sad expression on his face]] which is clearly seen since he was the only one to escape getting pied in the face, even holding a pie in the process. However, just as he leaves the school, when asked who he is, he is shown to have the pie over only his eyes. It wouldn't be a stretch to say that perhaps he used that pie to hide away his tears. |
| 7 | * Episode 7 had an unexpected MoodWhiplash during the Class Sports Day. Of course, Sakamoto, with his shoelaces tied managed to overcome his problems by running like a cheetah. But while he had his plans, he didn't notice that he was holding his baton on his mouth, so his saliva made the baton slippery that Yagi failed to get ahold of the baton. Just in a short moment, everyone then started badmouthing Yagi that she failed Sakamoto, while she continued to run while crying, and this resulted Class 1-2 not taking the 1st place despite having Sakamoto with them. It took Sera, with a bit of goading by Sakamoto, to make an even more ridiculous moment that everyone forgot Yagi's failure, but during that time, she just looked so ''pitiful''. |
