Blatant Lies | |
| Love Lab (Manga) / int_40bb59d0 | comment |
Blatant Lies: When Riko catches Maki kissing a body pillow, Maki tries to cover it up by claiming that it was just Riko's imagination, and that the pillow is a fairy. Suzune's first (and brief) appereance was dismissed similarly. Sayo is also able to see through Riko's obvious inexperience with guys. However, she doesn't call the latter out on it, partly because she enjoys watching Riko dig herself deeper with those lies, as well as Riko being stubborn about refusing to admit her lies. | |

Hate at First Sight: Riko takes an intense dislike to Sayo when they first meet, largely because the latter seems to be constantly digging dirt on Maki, and also because she correctly pointed out that the former isn't doing anything remotely related to the student-council. "Yan" also takes a dislike to Riko, due to his past strife with her, and later Maki, due to her Cloud Cuckoo Lander tendencies popping up when she's around him. | |

Cute Clumsy Girl | |
| Love Lab (Manga) / int_89fcfa0b | comment |
Cute Clumsy Girl: Maki attempts to be this, but fails miserably. Suzune plays it straight, tripping constantly. Riko utilizes this to distract the faculty members in episode 5 to buy time for Maki and Yuiko to use the PA system. Nana Ichikawa also plays this trope straight. In one hilarious scene, she runs off after leaving a photo of Riko by the student council office, but is so slow and trips so often that Suzune, despite also tripping a few times, manages to catch her. Some of the other students wonder if this was a skit. | |

My God, What Have I Done? | |
| Love Lab (Manga) / int_a1b141f4 | comment |
My God, What Have I Done?: Sayo warns Eno not to reveal the secret stuff Maki was writing about regarding researching love in episode 3. She disregards the warning, even realizing that releasing said documents was a "low blow". She later seems to have some second thoughts about it, but unfortunately the paperwork is passed out to the class leaders at the meeting the next day. Maki is frozen in fear and humiliation, causing Eno to try taking the blame for it. While it works, the other girls still question why the student council is researching stuff like this in the first place. Riko calls them out on it, by asking the girls if they haven't ever wondered about these things, and Eno saves the day by claiming that this stuff was done because of a legitimate question from one of the students, hence the weird topic, and that it was their job to research and find the answer for that girl. All of the girls drop their complaints upon hearing that, but Eno still apologizes about having done it. Riko feels this way too near the end of the show, when her lies begin to crumble after Maki finds out the truth by piecing various things others told her about Riko. | |

Imagine Spot | |
| Love Lab (Manga) / int_a7382a73 | comment |
Imagine Spot: A few occur in the show, usually Maki's interpretations of interacting with the perfect guy. Her more absurd ones generally get a Deadpan Snarker remark from Riko. Apparently characters are capable of watching each other's Imagine Spots as they happen. When Riko has one, Maki watches it and concludes that she must have a crush on Nagi, because the "hero" of her fantasy looked a lot like him. Characters are also capable of literally ripping apart offensive Imagine Spots like projector screens, with harisen. At one point, Maki literally steals the "hero" of Eno's fantasy while they were simultaneously daydreaming. | |

Be Careful What You Wish For | |
| Love Lab (Manga) / int_b06bbf4b | comment |
Be Careful What You Wish For: In episode 5, Riko ends up taking the heat for the student council using the PA system without permission to broadcast the answer to an anonymous question they received. After the other girls find out about it, they become upset, and Maki promises to tutor her to improve her English test scores. It seems to blow over, and Riko nonchalantly mentions she wouldn't mind being tutored by a good looking guy. Maki then comes back into the student council office wearing the male student uniform she bought a while back and pretending to be a guy. | |

Loophole Abuse | |
| Love Lab (Manga) / int_b1dde8fd | comment |
Loophole Abuse: The student council uses the PA system to answer a question a girl anonymously wrote to them regarding a boy she liked. Since their school has a strict policy on dating, and they also didn't know who wrote it, they do it this way while attempting to pass it off as an English lesson (which they hilariously don't use much of). While it works, Riko ends up taking the blame for it, although she fully intended to do that to buy the girls time to give their advice. | |

Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male: Rentarou, Riko's little brother, receives numerous Cranial Eruptions from his sister because he was staring at Maki and/or blabbing about how pretty she is. While insulting Riko in the same breath. She also hits the guys at the cram school occasionally. | |

Training from Hell | |
| Love Lab (Manga) / int_d66cd0e6 | comment |
Training from Hell: Riko receives some from Maki in episode 5 to help her improve her English test scores. It works, as she gets a 75 from the latest test. Unfortunately, it doesn't impress the other student council members, as they score 80-100 regularly, but they try to play up Riko's score somewhat anyway. | |

Reasonable Authority Figure | |
| Love Lab (Manga) / int_dca70c44 | comment |
Reasonable Authority Figure: Sugihara-sensei is more than willing to overlook the Student Council and Newspaper Association's less harmful activities that technically go against school policy, though mostly because she can't be bothered to care, and at one point even helps them out for a bentou. Though she's not above using this information to wheedle some of her responsibilities onto them. | |

Blackface | |
| Love Lab (Manga) / int_e78842b7 | comment |
Black Face: Used as part of a gag in episode 8 when Maki tries to be a "Soul Sister" in order to feel what it's like to be a girl with darker skin and who weigh a little more than usual. Values Dissonance aside, this could also be a reference to Ganguro, a type of Japanese style that was once fairly popular and includes deep tanning and often gaudy clothing. Then again, Ganguro style was a fad that died out at least a decade ago. Even then, aside from "Soul Sister" not even being in their vocabulary, it was a counterculture movement against Japanese beauty standards using bleached hair, not afros, and tanning that ended up stereotypically orange - even among the types of Ganguro style that were intentionally based off of black people, afros included, they are still functionally blackface. | |
