* ChildByRape: Fumiko winds up pregnant.
* DefiledForever: Fumiko describes herself as "stained, defiled, good for nothing". She asks for them to defile Kashiwaga as well, so they will be equal again.
* EvilLaugh: The horrifying cackling that ends the film, from Akira and Yuki after they meet Kashiwaga and Fumiko in the hospital.
* GoodGirlsAvoidAbortion: First played straight, then averted. Yuki says that Kashiwaga knocked her up and that she needs an abortion. Masaru tells her to keep it, and that he'll support her. She cries with relief and says she wanted to keep it. Then after Masaru is killed in a gang fight, Yuki goes and gets her abortion. Crosses into {{Squick}} territory when a client sees her and she says she has to hurry up and get the abortion so she can service him.
* HassleFreeHotwire: It takes about ten seconds to hotwire a car in order to drive to the beach.
* HitlerCam: The camera is pointing almost straight up for a shot of Akira as he's dragged from the jazz club in handcuffs.
* NoEnding: Akira takes Yuki to the hospital. There they meet Kashiwaga and Fumiko. Akira pushes Yuki at Kashiwaga, grabs Fumiko, and says they should switch girls, since Fumiko's carrying his baby while Yuki is carrying Kashiwaga's. Akira and Yuki mock Kashiwaga, laughing maniacally. Then the movie ends.
* NoTellMotel: Where Yuki takes her clients--she takes a white man to one for a thirty-minute stay, and later takes Kashiwaga to another.
* RapeAsDrama: Akira assaulting Fumiko on the beach.
* SexForServices: Fumiko says "you can have my body for payment" when asking Akira and Yuki to "defile" Kashiwaga. It turns out to not be necessary, as Yuki takes cash to seduce Kashiwaga.
* TheSociopath: All three of our leads. Fumiko delivers a rage-filled speech to Akira only to discover he isn't paying attention, lost in his jazz music. After Masaru's death, Yuki says "I cried for three days" in a tone that sounds like she is talking about shopping for groceries.
* {{Streetwalker}}: Yuki appears to find customers in bars, but Akira picks up a street whore in one scene, and gives her Fumiko's purse.
