 * Accidental Pervert: At the end of Chapter 6, Shinomiya falls right in the middle of Serinuma's breasts. Unlike most examples, she doesn't reacts with anger and just rans off, scared.
 * Beautiful All Along: Kae seems to have been overweight for a very long time, so nobody of her school friends even suspect the thing girl she turned into is really her until she opens her mouth.
 * Bifauxnen: Nishina is a pretty but masculine-looking girl, to the point of tricking the male main characters at first.
 * Even the Girls Want Her: Averted with Nishina, because she doesn't seem to have male admirers at all.
 * Indirect Kiss: In chapter 6, Mutsumi gives Kae's food with his usual chopsticks, making her think about this trope happenning.
 * Reality Ensues: The same inclination to eating that made Serinuma fat before drives her to eat too much again, rendering her fat at the end of chapter 10. Of course, considering how easy she lost weight in first place, it's not surprising 2 chapters she manages to go back to normal.
 * Rule of Funny: Getting that skinny that fast would create stretch marks, and make you collapse. The series is pretty much a comedy, so it fits this trope.

 * Shipper on Deck:
 * Kae ships boys of her school, though them not really show mutual attraction, it's just her dirty mind at work.

 * Status Quo Is God: At the end of Chapter 12, Serinuma is restored to her skinny state after getting fat at the end of chapter 10.
 * Unwanted Harem: Serinuma didn't want all the male attention. In fact, she would prefer if the guys flirted with each other, but her harem of Bishounens is very, very straight.
 * Zettai Ryouiki: The maids of the school festival have class A.
