* [[The Generic Guy]]: He's tough, but not to the same level as Tomoyo or Kyou. His grades are adequate, but his book smarts aren't to the level of Kotomi's.

* [[Think Nothing of It]]: Koji will help people without any thought of a reward for doing so. Why? Because his parents brought him up to be kind and helpful to others.

* [[Well Intentioned Extremist]]: Until his senior year, Koji earned a reputation for beating up school bullies to the point where they'd be too scared to bully anyone again. He stopped after he was threatened with expulsion from Hikarisaka.

* [[Will They or Won't They]]?: Karu was attracted to Shou. Later, he loses his interest in her after seeing her true colours- yet he still kisses her for a prank. Now she likes him, and wants to date with him, but Karu is hesitant to start a relationship. Somehow they end up going on a date, but the question is still unresolved.

* [[Walking the Earth]]: A very, very mild version. Along with rain, Ayumu likes wandering around. You might find him in places where he has really no reason to be there other than he passed by.

* [[Idle Rich]]: Despite being old enough for a part-time job, she makes no attempt to do anything all that productive or make a (positive) name for herself and she instead chooses to live off of her father’s money and her family’s fame.

* [[Inferiority Superiority Complex]]: {{spoiler|Played depressingly straight. Avery is insecure on the inside, so she hides this by exploiting her judgmental, stuck-up side. One could say this is a backfire from her mother encouraging her to be perfect but then reality comes into play…}}

* [[Laser Guided Karma]]: Poor, poor Avery. (Or not.) Whenever she acts out and judges others for her own benefit (which she does a lot), she seems to be zapped by the laser of justice that is Karma. It can be her peers retaliating against her or perhaps a simple accident after she makes a complete bitch of herself.

* [[Lonely Rich Kid]]: Played rather straight. Her only friend is Ashyanna, who in truth is more like a minion/puppet that Avery uses for her own benefits. {{spoiler|Or perhaps she controls and intimidates her as she's afraid Ashyanna will leave.}} Beyond that, most of the school either hates and/or fears her. Her father often spends his time with Kyoko, his lover, away from home but only because Avery herself dislikes Kyoko.

* [[Loners Are Freaks]]: Somewhat justified in Avery’s case. While most stereotypical attractive, wealthy and fashionable teenagers in school are popular, Avery is not. It could be due to the fact she’s a foreigner who more-often-than-not pushes others away due to her behavior. Thus, despite her delusions that she IS popular, Avery is quite isolated and disliked.

* [[Screw the Rules I Have Money]]: Doubly Subverted. Due to the Vanderbilt's money, one would think Avery could get whatever she wanted. She forces her father to try and bribe the school counsel to allow her to wear whatever she wishes while in school, only for them to not be swayed by offers of money. However, afterwards, Avery still gets her way sometimes based on the sole fact she's from a wealthy family.

* [[The Fashionista]]: One of Avery’s hobbies is clothes and their appeal, to the point where she will (not surprisingly) call others out if she deems their fashion sense is horrid (in Avery's opinion).

* [[Tomboy and Girly Girl]]: Downplayed. Tomboy to Ashyanna’s Girly-Girl, despite the fact Avery herself could easily be considered a Girly-Girl. This trope applies because in comparison to Ashyanna (who is sweet-natured, shy, and submissive; loves cute frou-frouish things) Avery (who is aggressive and dominant) could be considered one.
