* ExactWords: After already witnessing some of Riri's manipulations, Anzu immediately assumes that Junta is a poor soul brainwashed by Riri into believing that he had a childhood crush on Anzu. [[spoiler:It isn't until later that Riri tells Anzu that he never said such a thing. Junta's crush is very much real, but Anzu didn't recognize him due to an AdrenalineMakeover -- all Riri did was pull some strings to get them to meet again faster than they would have otherwise.]]

* TheBeard: Riri (as Rio) pretends to be Anzu's boyfriend during a mock date between the two whenever the other guys show up, much to her annoyance (especially since [[KissingCousins he introduces himself as her cousin first]]).

First, when Saki bumps into Anzu, Tsukasa, and Junta, she asks if she can spend the night at their place because her older brother kicked her out to have party with his friends, and Saki tells them that she ratted him out to their dad, who looks to be ''very'' pissed at what Saki told him. After Anzu goes to sleep, Saki recounts how other girls were jealous of her good looks, and when she went out with an upperclassman that was willing to respect her boundaries, he invited her to his house to study [[spoiler: where he tries to force himself on her, but she managed to use a textbook to push him off]]. The next day at school, [[spoiler: [[BlatantLies he spun the events to make her look like she was stalking him]], though Anzu doesn't believe it for a second and angrily confronts him]].

As the group spends the rest of the evening enjoying the festival, some random girl takes a selfie of her and her friend, which shows Anzu and Tsukasa in the background.
