- Alternate Character Interpretation: Is Ichijou evil or just weird?
- Ensemble Dark Horse: Despite being called plain, Kurumi sure has a quite the fanbase because of her sexiness.
- Les Yay:
- Done quite a few times. One including Behoimi and Media moving around behind a curtain with some rather suggestive dialogue while they disarm a bomb. Also in episode 15, where Becky tells Sayaka to do something to keep Himeko from jumping out the back of a bus teetering on the edge of a cliff (long story) and her answer to the problem is...well, this.◊
- Again with Behoimi and Media in the final episode when they swap outfits, and Behoimi admits she's a little turned on when Media shows it off.
- Despite Sayaka teasing with Himeko in episode 15, there's actually more subtext between her and Kurumi. They even tease each other every once in a while (Kurumi usually becomes a Deadpan Snarker when it comes to Sayaka's naiveness and Sayaka even teases her, too).
- Himeko towards Rebecca.
- In the English language trailer, Otome Akiyama is called "the tyke" and and Suzune Shiratori "the dyke".
- Moe:
- Akira Miyata. And yes, her haircut is cute.
- Played completely straight with Becky of course.
- Nightmare Fuel: Some of Ichijou's antics qualify. Notably, the episode where she discovers Hibiki spying on the class and offers her "a fixer upper" (implied to be a bottle of poison). The episode ends with the reveal of Hibiki's skeleton, lying forgotten under the desk...
- Viewer Gender Confusion: Mesousa is actually male, but it can be hard to tell thanks to his feminine voice and tendency to crossdress.
- Woolseyism: As if SHAFT's own cultural references weren't enough, ADV Films mixes in some of their own, including a Mel Gibson reference in the island episode.
