* NotHowImDyingDeclaration: After Majo makes a GhostLegLottery on ways to die, Baka gets "bludgeoned to death". An eager Wota asks Robo if she has any blunt instruments on her, and Robo suggests that the edge of a desk or chair might do the trick. Baka literally bends over backwards to confront her "friends", saying, "I ain't goin' out like that."

* InLoveWithLooks:
** From her conversations with her friends, it seems Nozumo "Baka" Tanaka's sole criteria for finding guys to date is "Hot". It started in elementary school, evidently, as she wrote in her yearbook that she wanted to be an "awesome high school girl who went on lots of dates with hot guys". By the time she reaches high school, that hasn't changed, though she made the mistake of enrolling in an all-girls school.
** Lily Someya is openly lesbian, and freely admits she chose the school based on rumors of "lots of cute girls", and she's not disappointed. Lily does seem to have some higher standards, but it's worth noting that a pretty face, like Saku "Loli" Mamoi or Kanade "Majime" Ninomae, will quickly earn her attention. At one point she's even rendered speechless at the sight of Kanade's mother, and ends up puckering for her to receive a kiss that never comes. And she has to sharply pinch her own cheek on occasion to keep from attempting to kiss Saku, as she values the girl's friendship and doesn't want to put her out.

* CorrectiveLecture: Mastaka "Waseda" Sawatari is a TormentedTeacher who frequently tries to warn Nozomu "Baka" Tanaka and Minami "Yamai" Yamamoto about the poor levels of their grades, as well as frequently trying to check on "Yamai" to see if she's engaging in SelfHarm or if she's being abused (It's neither, but she does give people cause to worry). At one point during a school assembly the two of them start acting out, and so he has to take it beyond lecturing, dragging them up to the front of the hall with the rest of the faculty and holding them by their wrists so that they're on display for the whole school. But his preferred method of discipline is to lecture at length.

* TheShameless:
** Not even being saddled with a nickname like "Baka" (idiot) seems to phase Nozomu. She'll also gleefully display her test scores (which are nothing to be proud of. She once got a grade of 1 on a math test) And she has no qualms with being hopelessly vulgar in her speech, to the point where Akane "Wota" Kikuchi tells her to stop saying "crap" so loudly. She'll also eat foul smelling foods in the middle of class, like natto, or leek and pot sticker flavored chips (something "Wota" calls akin to an act of terrorism).
** "Waseda" starts the school year discussing the follies of attempting to date one of the students in such a way that all of the girls are very worried that he's going to be a problem. He will also unabashedly discuss his fetish, college girls in business attire. And when "Baka" suggests he's interested in her, he goes on a lengthy speech comparing her to a fish too young to use for sushi, saying he cannot like a fish that is too young or too old.

* TormentedTeacher: Masataka "Waseda" Sawatari is saddled with Nozumu "Baka" Tanaka, who comes by her nickname honestly [[note]]"Baka" being Japanese for "idiot"[[/note]], and Minami "Yamai" [[note]]"Sickness" or "Crazy"[[/note]] Yamamoto, who is hip deep in her {{Chuunibyou}} delusions. "Waseda" has tried on numerous occasions to warn "Baka" about her scorched-earth grades and shows concern for "Yamai"'s well-being, such as having her remove her {{PointlessBandAid}}s to make sure she wasn't self-harming. Usually, the strain of dealing with "Yamai" has his glasses breaking from the strain. He even says he has half a mind to make Yamamoto start paying to replace them.

* EvilDesiresInnocence: Downplayed. Lily Somiya is an out-and-proud lesbian who, while not ''inherently'' evil, has what she herself refers to as a "predator mode", which is her basest sexual desires. Those desires always seem to focus on Saku "[[AffectionateNickname Loli]]" Momoi, a high school girl who doesn't even know "where babies come from". While helping "Loli" fix her eyebrows after a shaving debacle, Lily has to sharply pinch her own cheek to avoid kissing the girl, which Lily describes as "keeping inner demons at bay", and when helping her with a bra fitting at a department store, she gives in to her "predator mode" and begins [[SkinshipGrope actively fondling]] "Loli"'s [[ACupAngst modest chest]].

* UnspokenRetort:
** In the first episode, Tanaka relates a series of vignettes about possible ways for her to meet a guy, all of which conclude with the guy saying "What an interesting girl." When Akane "Wota" Kikuchi asks her what's up with the phrase, Tanaka says that the third rate heroine has to be somewhat interesting to get the guy. "Wota" then thinks to herself, "Well, at least she's aware on some level that she's third-rate." It also leads to Tanaka's well-deserved nickname, "Baka". [[note]]Japanese for "idiot"[[/note]]
** When "Loli" tells Lily that it was "Baka" who told her babies are made when the mother and father apply to the government, Lily refrains from mocking "Loli", while thinking darkly of "Baka", [[PrecisionFStrike "BITCH!"]]
** When Lily is first introduced to the class, she unabashedly tells them she's very into girls, and hates boys. [[UniversalGroupReaction All the girls then picture a slot machine hitting the "Weirdo Jackpot"]]. And then when "Baka" questions Lily about it outright, the rest of the class silently but unanimously agree that only "Baka" would be stupid enough to ask what they were all thinking to themselves.
** "Waseda" frequently has moments like this, usually when dealing with "Baka" or "Yamai". For example, when giving supplemental lessons to "Baka", she proudly proclaims that she's got the solution, to which he is happy, until she states that it was about her guy problems, not her lessons, to which he thinks, "I'd like that one unbridled moment of hope back, please." On one occasion, while trying to get "Yamai" to decide between the humanities or sciences route, he threatens to involve her parents, to which she immediately responds that she'll go with humanities. He silently laments, "That took literally two seconds." And on one occasion, he pulls "Yamai" aside to check on her well-being after she's wearing more bandages than usual, using sweet buns to coax her to come willingly. When it turns out that she was causing herself heat rashes, and hiding pimples, "Waseda" thinks to himself, "You've got to be kidding me. I've got half a mind to make you start paying for these glasses [[note]]Her antics frequently cause his glasses to break from the sheer stress[[/note]], Yamamoto. And don't even think of eating that second bun."

* HoldingInLaughter: Episode 9, after "Loli" has butchered her own eyebrows trying to be fashionable, "Baka" and "Wota" are both trying their hardest not to burst out laughing. Lily calls them out on their insensitivity, only for "Baka" to point out [[{{Hypocrite}} that Lily is barely holding it in herself]]. Lily, shaking badly with suppressed laughter, states [[BlatantLies that she's holding nothing in.]]

* InappropriatePride: Nozumu "[[BookDumb Baka]]" Tanaka once showed Kanade "Majime" Ninomae a set of her exams with scores that were 10, 11, 12, 13,and a 1, or as Majime noted with astonishment, a numerical representation of a Royal Straight Flush. "Baka" was far more proud of that than she was concerned about the "scorched earth" (as her instructor called them) level of failing grades.

* ChafingAgainstTheDressCode: In the second episode, the homeroom teacher, dubbed "Waseda" by the girls, asks Minami "Yamai"[[note]]sickness/crazy[[/note]] Yamamoto why she has blonde hair, questioning if she was trying to look like a foreigner. She tells him she's [[{{Chuunibyou}} half Dragonian and half Altamian]]. He tells her to bring a birth certificate later. Then he asks Akane "Wota"[[note]]Otaku/Nerd[[/note]] Kikuchi why her hair is a bit lighter and her skirt a bit shorter than the day before. She strikes a demure pose and suggests it's because she's half-Chochiki and half-Hokkaido (areas known for wearing short skirts and for coloring their hair respectively). "Waseda" shrugs it off by saying, "Well, that settles that." Wota angrily retorts, "No, that doesn't settle that! How about a witty comeback or something?!"
