Line 13:
{{tropelist}}
 
* [[A -Cup Angst]]: Part of her self-esteem issues.
* [[Adorkable]]: Tomoko, in spades.
* [[Black Comedy]]
Line 19:
* [[Broken Pedestal]]: A mild example: Tomoko's cousin Kii-chan starts out seeing Tomoko as [[Cool Big Sis]], later starts having doubts about her {{spoiler|and ends up finding out the truth about Tomoko when she witnesses her cheating while playing games with little kids just to impress her. Though this revelation makes her pity Tomoko rather than loathe her.}}
* [[Butt Monkey]]: To the entire universe. Tomoko doesn't realize it, which might be a good thing as the truth might plunge her into the pit of despair, or bad since she can't realize why her attempts to make friends are massive failures.
* [[Caught Withwith Your Pants Down]]: In Tomoko's case it was {{spoiler|being caught by her mother while redubbing a sex scene from an otome game with herself as the protagonist}}, but it seemed to be equally embarrassing.
* [[Closet Otaku]]: After entering high school, Tomoko's middle school friend Yuu became one of these to fit in.
* [[Comically Missing the Point]]: In the Christmas special, Tomoko completely misses the point of her vibrator and uses it to massage her neck. She feels so comfortable that she falls asleep while using it.
Line 26:
* [[Covert Pervert]]: Tomoko tries to peek on a girl's panties out of "curiosity" over what kind of panties a girl with a boyfriend would wear.
* [[Cringe Comedy]]
* [[Crossover]]: ''GanGan Online'' promoted this series and ''[[Daily Lives of High School Boys (Manga)|Daily Lives of High School Boys]]'', two of their best school setting hits, by making flyers and posters with Tomoko and Yoshitake riding a train on the way to their schools.
* [[Defrosting Ice Queen]]: Tomoko's little brother is starting to show signs of this.
* [[Emotionless Girl]]: Tomoko tries to invoke this in the tenth chapter, but she fails. Hilariously.
Line 54:
* [[Shaggy Dog Story]]: Most of the chapters.
* [[Shout-Out]]: Tomoko has a [[Tiger and Bunny]] poster in her room.
** In chapter 2 Tomoko name-drops ''[[Gantz (Manga)|Gantz]]''. Later in that chapter she is wearing a t-shirt that appears to feature Socially Awkward Penguin.
** The anime she [[Self-Insert Fic|inserts herself into]] in her fantasies in chapter 9 seems to be either ''[[Fate/stay Stay Night (Visual Novel)night|Fate Stay Night]]'' or ''[[Fate Zero (Literature)|Fate /Zero]]''.
** In Chapter 13 she is briefly seen playing a ''[[Shin Megami Tensei]]'' game.
** In the chapter where she first hangs out with Yuu, Tomoko decides to play ''[[Pop N Music]]''.
** In chapter 15 what appears to be ''[[Persona 4: (Anime)The Animation|Persona 4]]'' poster can be seen in her room.
** Chapter 10 has an [[Show Within a Show|anime]] that looks a lot like ''[[Haruhi Suzumiya (Light Novel)|Haruhi Suzumiya]]''.
** Chapter 19, she name-drops ''[[Battle Royale (Literature)|Battle Royale]]''. She even references the [[Weapon of Choice]] for one of the major characters (a sickle).
* [[Show the Forehead]]: Combined with [[Twin Tails]] to complete Tomoko's "disguise" form. Unfortunately, this has the side effect of turning her into a [[Gonk]].
* [[Shrinking Violet]]: Combined with [[No Social Skills]], this is the reason she can barely put together a full sentence with anyone she doesn't know.
