* Homare carrying Muku on his back in ''Snowfall Street'' is awesome...until you think about the RealismInducedHorror. It is already hard enough to walk on the snowy terrain, as shown by Muku tripping and twisting his ankle, and then Homare goes through it with Muku on his back. You do ''not'' want to think of Homare tripping. This moment is as awesome as it is chilling.

* Considering the ButtMonkey status on Homare and how Tasuku and Hisoka often insult not only for his antics but also his failures, for all the PlayedForLaughs nature, do the insults and the failures actually affect Homare on a deeper level even if he manages to brush them off and act as if he were unaffected? Not only Homare has low self-worth and sometimes still engages in HeroicSelfDeprecation, but also ''My Master's Mesmerized by Mystery'' rerun banner chat reveals that Homare dislikes showing weakness to others.

Homare fails to see himself as anything other than a marshmallow supplier to Hisoka and feels like Tasuku is only the happiest with acting.

** His body is lean but quite toned as shown in the bloomed version of his [Elegant Bath Time], while the bloomed version of his ''Elegant Vacation'' card shows that he is fairly built and toned, which makes sense considering all that.

*** Made heartwarming with Tasuku's words in ''Attack☆Veludo Star Challenge''. When Itaru is unable to up his game in physical fitness no matter how hard he tries, Tasuku tells Itaru to not force himself to do what he cannot do, rather, hone what he is already good at. In a way, Tasuku putting Homare through numerous TrainingFromHell is less about Tasuku doing it out of spite and more about him thinking that Homare has the potential because Homare has his fair share of physical feats. Though considering the vitriol between the two and how often Homare complains about Tasuku's regime being spartan, Homare probably misses Tasuku's true intention, leading to a FridgeSadness.

* Throughout ''Dance with Butterfly'' N backstage, Homare takes charge when coaching Winter Troupe in the gym. Which means Homare guides Tasuku, the resident fitness nut, along the gym and through the necessary equipment for the exercise. It may sound hilarious but the goal is to prepare for the dance in the performance, and Homare is the most well-versed in dancing in the troupe.

*** His toned arms may come from that he plays cymbals, well enough to teach Hisoka how to play them in Hisoka's [A Hymn to Deliver to You] backstage. According to the ''Marching Parade'' set backstage, he participates in a marching band as a cymbals player, alongside Tasuku as the drum major and Kumon as the snare drum player. Not only marching band is physically demanding, but playing cymbals also requires good upper body strength.

*** In the stage version, despite having a scene in which Sagishima disarms a knife-wielding Keiichi and slams his face against a chair, Homare is not shown to practice for the action scenes unlike the Izumi vs Franz fight scene in ''Nocturnality''. Granted, the action scene in ''My Master's Mesmerized by Mystery'' is far shorter and simpler, but still takes excellent physical skills and agility to pull off considering how effortless and graceful it looks. This technically means that doing action scenes is hardly a problem to Homare, which can be an allusion to the natural physical skills coming from his dancing skills and experience.

** While it may be OutOfFocus cases due to not being the focus of the event stories, Homare is never shown to struggle in action scenes (save for the tiredness after the play in ''Blooming Squadron Mankai Rangers'') despite not looking like it. He actually manages to pull off fight scenes ''on a skateboard'' in ''SK∞ the Infinity × A3!''. TruthInTelevision, [[https://evolve-vacation.com/blog/why-dancing-may-be-the-missing-ingredient-of-your-fight-game/ dancing, martial arts, and fighting have overlaps when it comes to the trained and required skills]], such as footwork, rhythm, and spatial awareness, to name a few. ''Dance with Butterfly'' reveals that Homare is very well-versed in ballroom dancing and has learned waltz since he is a kid, so it can be said that Homare is simply applying what he learns from dancing to perform action scenes.

* With Tasuku [Escort Card Invitation] showcasing Fuyuki's ChronicHeroSyndrome that results in him sacrificing himself, there is a parallel between Fuyuki and Homare. Homare kills his own unique acting to help Tasuku during ''Dance with Butterfly'' on top of hurting himself with muscle training in order to understand Tasuku better.

** This leads to a FridgeHorror: so far, Homare never once mentioned his father, nor has he ever said anything about his parents' relationship. In his [Mankai Memory] backstage, he is thankful to his grandmother, his mother, and the servants for raising him with care. Then in his [Illuminate the Darkness], his mother makes a debut but there is still no mention of his father. Yeah...

* ''Moment of Winter'' magazine reveals that Homare never aspired to be a poet; instead, he just became one. But the most important thing in poetry to him? Inspiration, or life. He also says that he actively searches for inspiration and tries to be as observant as possible wherever he goes, because he never knows when inspiration will strike. Act 11 also subtly alludes to this, that Homare loves art because there is that touching moment when the feelings that lie dormant within a person burst forth like an explosion. With him being likened to machines and [[HeroicSelfDeprecation often calling himself broken and mechanical]], there is a possibility that a side of him denies that he is broken and mechanical; [[CopeByCreating Homare may be using art to convince himself that he is alive.]]
