    Chapter 1 
  • Soujuurou asks Aoko if being angry is a business for her or some kind of family trait. She has a Sarcasm Failure at how sincere her new classmate is.
  • Soujuurou attempts to leave the school building on the second floor via a classroom window into the rain. A shocked Aoko has to reprimand him for just how against the pale this is.
  • Aoko and Alice are noted to be especially fond of takeout for dinner, earning them the ire of every single restaurant in Misaki who all loathe having to deliver food up the hill to the two. This has escalated to the point where they're going to be soft banned from ordering takeout next year by forbidding delivery under three items.
  • Alice has a petty moment where she refuses to bring Aoko dinner despite their agreement to spite her for the time Aoko went off to a sushi conveyor belt restaurant and only brought her roommate convenience store food while yakking Alice's ear off the whole time about all the sushi she ate. The increased pettiness factor and the humor are only magnified when a mid-game conversation reveals that Alice doesn't like fish and she likely would not have even eaten the sushi.

    Chapter 2 
  • Soujuurou's male classmates make a huge fuss about the Canned Food Festival in which one of them brought a huge pyramid of canned food to chow on. Half of them are expired and are going to give them food poisoning, but they insist it's better to eat it all up than throw it out.
  • Nobody wants to volunteer for the student council project to clean up the old schoolhouse during winter break with the girls resorting to claiming they have anemia and if they don't eat their tropical fruit, they'll die.
  • Aoko spends an entire hour pissed at Soujuurou, staring at the wall and grinding her teeth. Tobimaru neglects to tell her this because he wants payback for her belittling insult. Aoko gets even more pissed, but can't do anything because she'll miss Remedial Classics and old Fujishiro will absolutely pounce on her if she's absent.
  • Touko is introduced gambling by herself in the pachinko parlor, with four boxes of pachinko balls all sitting at her feet to use up for the rest of the day.

    Chapter 4 
  • Another note in Aoko's terrifying reign over her school is that once inducted as student council president, she immediately established a secret file compiling all possible information on the student body for her personal use. The entire student body is disturbed by the mere rumor of its existence.
  • Alice hands Aoko a magic storage bottle to kidnap their magic witness. Aoko complains that it looks like an ordinary drug bottle with the label removed, asking if Alice has something more dignified Aoko can use.
  • In a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment, Aoko's continual fussing over Soujuurou's existence leads to her blocking Alice's attempt to grab food from the hot pot from all the hand gesturing with chopsticks Aoko's doing, which is reflected in the broth by Alice's very annoyed face.
  • Aoko has to get Soujuurou to join a club as per school regulations. She suggests he try one of the athletic ones like swimming or running. He picked swimming, only for it to turn out that Soujuurou has zero swimming ability and disqualifies him from joining. Aoko is affronted not because of Soujuurou's inability but because of how embarrassing this makes her seem to the club captain.

    Chapter 5 
  • Soujuurou saves Aoko from the puppet by blocking its attack with a fire extinguisher. The reason he came to save her? The idea that she'll try to kill him tomorrow instead of today would make his schedule really awkward with everything he's doing that day, so he would rather she try to kill him today.
  • Alice's first attempt to kill Soujuurou is with a floating giant magic fork.
  • Soujuurou already figured out a while ago that the Flat Snark is the moon, he just didn't say anything because he thought it was pointless to bring it up. Aoko's only reaction is resigned exasperation.
  • When Aoko asks Soujuurou why he has a crush on her, a massively long Beat follows before he speaks. He has no idea why she has that impression. Another massively long Beat follows as Aoko's theme has a Record Needle Scratch. Aoko's urge to kill Tobimaru for putting that incorrect idea in her head spikes and she punches Soujuurou in the face on reflex from sheer embarrassment. That one blow is enough to render him unconscious.

    Chapter 7 
  • Soujuurou when in Aoko's room for their study session, is curious about the guitar he sees in the corner.
    • Soujuurou: Don't tell me it's some kind of weapon?
    • Aoko: It's a musical instrument. Keep talking, though, and you'll soon see if it also works as a weapon.
    • Soujuurou plopped himself down onto a cushion, struggling to suppress the desire to retort, it was a weapon after all.
  • During said study session, Aoko starts off energetic but ends it completely drained of pep and energy as she realizes that Soujuurou would not be able to learn anything for his exams but instead would have to brute force and memorize everything.
    • Aoko: .....finished.
    • Soujuurou: And it only took us all night, eh, Aozaki?

  • Aoko scolds Soujuurou for getting home later after curfew and not taking his medicine. Soujuurou wonders what these pills were even for to which Aoko without any hesitation informs him that they were poison that would kill him if he didn't take another dosage of poison that would counteract the old one.
    • Aoko: Get it? So drink up. I'm enjoying this just as much as you are. And until I think of a way around this, you're going to have to deal with it.
    • Soujuurou as he downs the pills without hesitation: Maybe I misheard you for a second. Did you say that these pills I've been taking this whole time are actually bad for me?"
    • Soujuurou: Using poison to cancel poison... You two are really taking the old-fashioned approach, huh?
    • Soujuurou's face relaxed into a smile upon finding the funny side of the situation.
    • Aoko was utterly dumbfounded as how he could be happy at a time like this.
  • As Alice and Aoko talk, their conversation suddenly turns cold as the music cuts out entirely while they stare at each other tensely. The reason for this sudden hostility that could tear apart their alliance? What to do with Soujuurou's rent, of course.
    • Alice: I'm a reasonable person, Aoko. It's fine with me if you take thirty percent.
    • Aoko: Down from all of it? Hah! Not a chance.
    • Alice: Fly too high and you may lose those wings, Aoko.
    • Aoko: ......cheapskate. Fine. You get sixty, I get forty.

    Chapter 11 
  • During an otherwise somber scene where Soujuurou chats with a heavily injured Aoko about the events of the previous night, the topic turns to where Beowulf came from and where Touko had been operating out from as a hideout. Soujuurou casually answers both questions by telling Aoko that he's seen Beowulf's human form at Misaki High's old school building and around town on multiple occasions and had even delivered kilos of meat to him as part of his part-time jobs from time to time, prompting the previously lethargic Aoko to ignore her injuries and furiously hurl her slippers at Soujuurou and knock him out of his chair for not mentioning them earlier.
    • Soujuurou points out that even if he had brought it up, Aoko and Alice would've likely just assumed it was another of his Cloudcuckoolander moments and dismissed it as such. Aoko has an Imagine Spot of Soujuurou telling the girls his story about delivering food to a giant golden wolf, and is forced to admit she and Alice wouldn't have actually believed Soujuurou at the time.

    Chapter 12 
  • While running through Misaki High's old schoolhouse, Aoko and Touko exchanges petty spats that resemble mundane sisterly arguments rather than exchanges between two opposing mages. Touko's reaction to Aoko admitting she has no clue what to do with the time she borrowed from Soujuurou and that she'll just figure it out later is to essentially call out her little sister for being a careless maniac.
  • After Touko has been defeated and is spared from being killed, Aoko threatens to turn Touko into a frog - a threat Touko is actually unnerved by.
    • In the process of enacting her real punishment on Touko by cursing her body, Aoko starts stripping Touko and teases Soujuurou about remaining at the scene and becoming a pervert by watching the two of them. Soujuurou is more bothered by the idea of being a pervert than anything else relating to the situation like what Aoko's planning to do to Touko.
