Line 6:
** The way everyone treats Kei, especially in the beginning. And we're supposed to '''laugh'''.
* [[The Scrappy]]: Kei's mom. Is having grandkids ''that'' effing important?
* [[So Bad It's Horrible]]: YOU DON'T SAY?
* [[Squick]]: Yui forcing Kei to swallow her own puke.
* [[Unfortunate Implications]]: The manga is quite heteronormative, even homophobic. It's message comes off as "Lesbians aren't normal and probably don't exist. They're just traumatized straight girls who need to be 'fixed'" and "Girls have no purpose other than to be married to boys and produce children" (the author is '''female'''). The boys are abusive, and the mom comes off as a [[Complete Monster]] or at least just horribly immature, however they're played off as ''the good guys''.
* [[Values Dissonance]]: A story about straight camp [[Played for Laughs]] didn't go over so well in the States. Subverted a bit however as it was considered offensive even in Japan.
* [[The Woobie]]: Poor, poor Kei.
