Say "I Love You" (Manga) / int_1484dba1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: In episode 3, Yamato tells Mei about his friend in middle school who was bullied and ended up transferring. Although he's seen at the very end of episode 7, and as a weird customer in episode 8 in the bakery Mei works at, he isn't formally introduced until episode 9, as Kai Takemura. Yamato then reveals to Mei that Kai was the friend who was bullied. | |

Green-Eyed Monster | |
Say "I Love You" (Manga) / int_1d2400e9 | comment |
Green-Eyed Monster: Mei's first signs of having feelings for Yamato are through her jealousy of his first crush Arai. After learning from Asami that Yamato seems to be able to kiss any girl (including Mei) instead of his crush, Mei feels insulted. Her jealousy only deepens when she learns that Yamato and Aiko had sex in middle school, but she gets over it. Hayakawa envied Yamato because all the girls love him while he has to sleep around to get their interest. Aiko was jealous of Mei because, in her perspective, Mei effortlessly hooked up with Yamato while Aiko pushed herself to lose weight and make herself look pretty in hopes that she would be noticed. Yamato is jealous of Mei's friendliness with Kai and how natural it is for them to talk and understand each other. Kai's implied feelings for Mei, as well as Megumi's attempt to sabotage Mei's and Yamato's relationship by constantly telling Yamato how close Kai and Mei are, also doesn't help their situation. Megumi cannot see why Yamato would choose such a "plain" girl like Mei for a girlfriend when he could have her and is determined to sabotage Mei's relationship with Yamato, as well as distance Mei from her friends Asami and Aiko, so she can get rid of Mei and have Yamato for herself. | |

Kai, once again, gives one, this time to Megumi in episode 11. When they're discussing their love interests, Megumi tries to call him out on telling Yamato he liked Mei, but Kai tells her that her Bitch in Sheep's Clothing attitude she has is going to end up backfiring on her. Which it does when Megumi starts lashing out at the people she thought were her friends. | |

Disappeared Dad: Mei lives only with her mother. Based on the small memorial shrine in episodes 1 and 12, it seems he passed away at some point before the series. Discussed more in the manga, where he does appear in flashback. He died of cancer when Mei was in her first year of middle school. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech: Kai gives one to Yamato in episode 10, telling him about how the latter seemed to be ignoring Mei's feelings, and how he always secretly hated him for doing that when they were younger. Kai, once again, gives one, this time to Megumi in episode 11. When they're discussing their love interests, Megumi tries to call him out on telling Yamato he liked Mei, but Kai tells her that her Bitch in Sheep's Clothing attitude she has is going to end up backfiring on her. Which it does when Megumi starts lashing out at the people she thought were her friends. | |

Truth in Television: The bullying that several of the characters are shown to have gone through, namely Mei and Kai, is shown to have been based on unclear or arbitrary reasons. This is pretty true to reality, since contrary to popular belief, bullying is not always a response to that which is different or unknown and can in fact happen to anyone, regardless of how they look, what they wear or how they live. | |

"Not So Different" Remark: After Yamato tells Mei more about his little sister Nagi in episode 5, she begins to realize that Mei was treated by her "friends" much in the same way she was. Mei's "friends" went over to her house often, and she often provided snacks for them, but they always left her out of anything they were doing, such as playing games. Eventually she started making up excuses for them to not be able to use her house, and then started skipping school altogether because of how they used her. | |

Say "I Love You" (Manga) / int_a1b141f4 | comment |
My God, What Have I Done?: Yamato starts to realize this when Aiko calls him out on the rumor that he was seen leaving Megumi's apartment. He initially doesn't think there's anything wrong with it, since he states there's nothing going on between them, and he's simply going there for dinner. Aiko then asks him that if the situation were reversed, where Mei was going to another guy's house without his knowledge, if Yamato would be okay with that. He runs off and begins searching for Mei, canceling his photo shoot with Megumi in the process. Rin gets a case of this during her disastrous pool date with Kai, after she winds up catching a glimpse of just why he didn't want to take his shirt off in front of her. Kai expects her to be disgusted, but she's mainly shocked at what was done to him, saddened that she hurt him and guilty that she invaded his privacy. | |

She then takes it down a notch and tries to get to know him first, with the intention of breaking him up with Mei so she can snag him. | |

Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male: A couple of examples: Mei when she kicks Yamato after Nakanishi tried to peek up her skirt on the staircase in the first episode. Subverted, some girls immediately comment on how mean that was. Inverted with Kai chopping Megumi on her head after she gives him a gift basket from the Land amusement park. He was excited to receive it at first, but then immediately questions why she didn't think about what those girls felt when they gave her the gift, and how giving it to him would be cheapening the feelings, even if she had no use for such a thing. | |

Broken Bird | |
Say "I Love You" (Manga) / int_d08595d3 | comment |
Broken Bird: While all of the girls qualify, Mei is probably the biggest one. Due to friends betraying her when she was younger, she avoided making friends in high school, and tried to be as inconspicuous as possible to avoid standing out. Episode 11 shows much more of Megumi's background, and how she was a lot like Mei, in that kids also made fun of her until she changed her image to match her friendly, Genki Girl facade. Which quickly begins to break down when she starts turning on the people hanging out with her. | |

What the Hell, Hero?: Aiko, of all people, tells Yamato in episode 8 that him going to Megumi's apartment for dinner and not telling Mei about it is really hurting her a lot. Then Aiko shows him the magazine interview of Megumi, who states that she still has a crush on a guy, and despite being turned down once, hasn't given up on him yet. He begins to realize what's going on | |

Clingy Jealous Girl | |
Say "I Love You" (Manga) / int_eb5b71fe | comment |
Clingy Jealous Girl: Due to Yamato's popularity with most girls, Mei unintentionally causes several girls to fall into this trope. It only infuriates them further that Mei didn't seem to do anything special, such as losing weight or putting on lots of makeup, yet attracted Yamato's attention. Yamato's sister, Nagi, acts this way towards Mei in the first part of episode 5. She does it again, although in a cute way, in episode 13, pretending to be sick so she could stay at home to watch over him, and attempting to keep Mei away from him, at least for that day, so she could have him all to herself. | |
