* [[All Just a Dream]]: Chapter 52. Nothing happens on this chapter, except Komi trying to tell Tadano there is a spot on her face.
* [[Ambiguous Gender]]: A [[Running Gag]] with Najimi, to the point of their possibly being [[Ambiguously Human]]. The narrative never makes it clear if they are a girl or a boy using a female uniform. It reaches a boiling point in the teacher-parents reunion chapter, where their parents do not show up. At this point, the possibility of their being an android is not to be discarded.

* [[Country Mouse]]: Chapter 51 presents Inaka Nokoko, a girl from countryside who feels very out of place on the city. She tries to fitting by reducing the height of her skirt (barely), and gets pretty embarrassed about it, showing she came from a comically conservative place, and later by imitating Komi, which she thinks of as a the model of a "cool girl from the city".

* [[Class Trip]]: Chapters 277 to 295 involve the second-year class going to New York City, United States of America. Ichou's sheer incompetence and the students' lack of knowledge of English generates good laughs.

* [[Nekomimi]]: When Komi is curious about something, she sprouts cat ears. Nobody else has commented on this, so it would be easy to dismiss it as yet another stylistic effect in the manga medium - after all, for a character whose dialogue is constrained, one takes opportunity for expressiveness where one can... Except that in one scene Komi has a nagging anxiety and confusion about why she sometimes grows them.

* [[Prophetic Dreams]]: Chapter 52. The day after Komi dreams of Tadano having a spot on his face he does show up with one.
* [[Proper Tights with a Skirt]]: Komi wears these with her school uniform.
