Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_11e0d645 | comment |
Arc Symbol: The stairway on Haruki and Miou's route home seem to be this for the pair, as it's present in every video they're in and something of an iconic scene portraying their "so close, but yet so far" relationship. | |

Alone Among the Couples | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_12e2a068 | comment |
Alone Among the Couples: "Blooming into the Colour of Love" cements this trope with Yamamoto, as near the end he's taking a picture of all of the major couples in the story yet has no pairing of his own.note Karen from "Assertion of the Heart" could count too, but she hasn't been focused on And even among his friends group, Kotaro still has Hina (albeit in a love triangle) and Shibaken has his story with Arisa. Even the end of the video gets in on this by introducing a new couple's love storynote That is, the story about Hiyori, Aizou, and Yuujirou near the end. In the main group, it's Koyuki who ends up as this, since the object of his affections is already in a relationship. "Blooming into the Color of Love" emphasizes it, as in the photo of all the main couples he's just standing awkwardly◊ next to Souta, and in "Senpai." he graduates without forming a romantic relationship with his only other prospective love interest, Hina. The way he looks at the three main couples in "Understand This Youth" implies that he's actually upset about his circumstances, at least a little bit. | |

Annoying Younger Sibling | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_130436b9 | comment |
Annoying Younger Sibling: Natsuki's younger brother Kotarou has a Hair-Trigger Temper and frequently bickers with his Natsuki by calling her names. He gets so loud that the neighbors (Yuu and Hina) could hear them fight. Yuu's younger sister Hina is very spoiled, and frequently uses her brother's stuff without permission, occasionally breaking them. In the vomic, she remarked how Kotaro is such a brat, and Yuu's response was pretty much, "You're one to talk." Souta's younger sister is this. In addition, he has a meddlesome older sister, and both girls love to pick on him. Sena is revealed to have Mona in "I Want to Become Cute", and often gets into fights with her. However, they seem to get along decently. | |

In "Tokyo Winter Session", Miou and Haruki finally managed to close he gap between each other and properly join hands. Sena and Midori upgrade to "Secret Lovers" in "Sunday's Secret". "Saucy Honey" finally gets Ken and Arisa together. | |

Childhood Friend Romance: Yuu and Natsuki have been close friends since childhood, and their relationship eventually develops into romance. Likewise, their younger siblings have grown up together as well, although Kotaro's crush on Hina is one-sided... at least until "It Was Supposed to be Hate" reveals that Hina now has some budding feelings for Kotaro too. | |

"Do It Yourself" Theme Tune | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_20b5cce7 | comment |
"Do It Yourself" Theme Tune: Two of the vomics open up with a cover version of the topic song sung by the voice actor of that particular protagonist (Natsuki for "Confession Rehearsal", Souta for "A Solution for Jealousy"). The ending songs are either sung by the opening singer, by the person who gives the -another story- version of the song, or by the person who sings their image songnote this is the case for the "Romeo" vomic. The "Right Now, I'll Fall in Love." vomic is the exception, as sana sings the cover version of the opening and the endingnote Right Now, I'm in Love and Triangle Jealousy of that installment. "Our Minute and A Second" is sung by Sphere, of which two of the members consist of Haruka Tomatsu (Natsuki), and Aki Toyosaki (Miou). Two of TrySail's members, Momo Asakura and Sora Amamiya, play Hina and Sena respectively in the series. TrySail provides the opening song "Senpai." for the second movie. For Our Love Has Always Been 10 Centimeters Apart., LIP×LIP performs the OP "Nonfantasy", and the six third year leads perform the ED "Tokyo Winter Session". | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: While the main body of work and content that comes out first is the songs, all other media try to explain what goes on to give comprehension to the videos. I've Always Liked You/Confession Rehearsal has the Koyuki subplot brought out more into the open, with Koyuki's advances on Natsuki causing more drama for the lead couple before her ultimate confession. The plot also takes place over a few months of school, as opposed to the vomic which goes over the time frame in a few days. The Moment You Fall in Love./Right Now, I'll Fall in Love. shows how Kotaro's group, Hina, and Arisa came together, and draws out the triangle drama between the three protagonists. | |

Am I Just a Toy to You? | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_2661be23 | comment |
Am I Just a Toy to You?: "Mean Encounter" has Arisa constantly asking this to Shibaken, to see if he's serious about his feelings for her. The PV ends with Shibaken being confronted by some of his exes, and having to sweet talk his way out of trouble. Arisa at that point happens to be nearby, and even though she's starting to like him back, witnessing the scene causes her to wonder if the nice words he's said to her were all a lie. | |

While Midori is practicing his "good mornings" for Sena in the boys' bathroom, one can spot Koyuki coming out of a stall freaked out by Midori's repetitions. | |

Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_2848e7d2 | comment |
Oblivious to Love: The official character profile states that Akari is clueless about matters of romance, to the frustration of Souta, who has a crush on her. Koyuki seems to be this to some extent, seeing that in "Right Now, I'll Fall in Love" he hears Hina's "I Like You" and misinterprets it as her comforting him after he'd just been rejected by Natsuki. Likewise, Natsuki is completely unaware that Koyuki's in love with her. | |

Hina is in love with Koyuki, but her childhood friend Kotaro is in love with her as well. "Senpai." reveals that even after she (sort of) confesses to him in "Right Now, I'll Fall in Love", she keeps her feelings to herself and does not get with Koyuki. Instead, "It Was Supposed to be Hate." sets up Kotaro and Hina together, as she starts to feel less than friendly feelings for the boy the year after Koyuki graduates. | |

Shipper on Deck: Arisa immediately recognizes that Kotarou has a crush on Hina, and in the vomic tries to put some distance between Hina and Koyuki in order to have her talk to Kotaro more. When it looks like Hina is falling for Kotaro, she's equally as supportive. It seems that Natsuki, Shibaken and Yamamoto have recognized his crush on Hina as well. | |

Not a Date: Koyuki invites Natsuki to hang out with him to enjoy their common interests in the summertime (novels have it be a book signing, movie has a HoneyWorks concert instead), which Natsuki gladly agrees to. Almost everyone she tells about it think she's going on a date with him, but she doesn't take it as such. Well, Koyuki did plan on telling the girl how he felt about her, so he planned on giving her a date in all but actual name. | |

Love Epiphany | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_38b33e8d | comment |
Love Epiphany: Diagnosis: Lovesickness is all about Natsuki coming to realize that she's in love with her good friend Yuu. Hina realizes she's in love with Koyuki after he comes over to check on her in the hallway, coupled with herself piecing together why she's feeling the way she feels inside. She has another one in "It Was Supposed to be Hate" when she finds herself furiously blushing at Kotaro's confession. The Day When I Knew Love has it right in the title for Akari, realizing that she'd fallen for Souta after their get-together on Christmas Eve. Ken has his when he sees Arisa smile after offering his textbook in a totally unplanned, uncool, and genuine moment. | |

Double Meaning: The conversation Kotarou and Koyuki have while they're watering plants in "Understand This Youth" is also implicitly a conversation about their love lives, with Koyuki unknowingly giving Kotarou some advice both on nurturing his plants and his budding love. | |

Unrequited Love Lasts Forever: On Haruki and Mio's parts, they certainly believe this trope is the case since they never confess to each other before Haruki moves to America, and they keep their crushes going strong for 6 years before Haruki returns. In both of their cases they never mention dating or falling in love with anyone else while the time passed. | |

Twice Shy: Hanamaka Midori and Narumi Sena are strangers who meet each other on the train car on their way to school everyday. They both fancy each other, but neither could work up the courage to say "good morning" to one another, despite spending much of their free time practising their greeting. By "Sunday's Secret" though, they've made more than enough process with it— Sena at least asks to sit next to Midori on the commute to school and they exchange phone numbers, and then over the passage of time escalates to secretly dating. | |

Flower Motifs | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_40cad744 | comment |
Flower Motifs: Hina is often associated with tulips. In "Senpai.", she has a white tulip during the end, which signifies a new love. The motif gets repeated in "The Red Thread on Flowers" at that video's end, but she's seen in a red tulip first. Red tulips often signify a "perfect love", but this one wilts in favor of the white, signifying Hina and Koyuki not getting together, and her growing feelings for Kotarou after Koyuki leaves. Kotarou is seen next to some poppies in "Understand This Youth". Poppies can also symbolize an "idle love", which is a perfect fit for his relationship with Hina, and an even bigger fit with Hina's ultimate relationship with Koyuki, as it lingers on a set of poppies in the opening of the second movie. | |

Standalone Episode | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_41076d1 | comment |
Standalone Song: It's a long series, so some of the songs apply here: "A Teacher, Detained" largely serves as this, since the PV series doesn't go in-depth about the relationship between Haruki, Saku, and Chiaki as the rest of the franchise does, and wraps up their drama relatively neatly in one go. The entire Midori/Sena arc (Friday's Good Morning, Sunday's Secret) can be divorced from the rest of the videos without much problem, given that their problems don't intersect with the rest of 3-2 or 1-1's problems. "I Want to Become Cute" is purely a song about Sena's thoughts and feelings concerning her desire to be pretty and seen, and only tangentially references the other characters. "My Idol Declaration" takes this a step further; since it's about an entirely different character (Mona), and her sister Sena only appears in cameos and doesn't interact with Mona at all, the former girl's story can be considered separate. "Nonfantasy" can just be taken as the story of a girl dreaming about a music video, since that's all it really was. Likewise, "Little Lion" can easily be seen as another one of LIP×LIP's in-universe music videos, as the story is mostly a Magic Realism tale about a cat with the idols playing second fiddle. "Mister Darling" is primarily about the Narumis' parents, and even out of context can be taken as a song about a girl wants to keep the spark in her relationship as she gets older. | |

Career Versus Man: Haruki poses the question to Akari in the second light novel, asking if she would be willing to put aside her passion for art in exchange for getting with the person she loves. Akari at first says drawing is more important, but as she begins to fall for Souta, she settles on wanting a balance; drawing is a part of her already, so wanting love isn't out of the question either. Haruki, meanwhile, puts his passion for directing over coming together with Miou...for a while at least. | |

It also shows that they're in their high school uniforms in the image for the song, so we all know how that one turned out. | |

The Stinger: The epilogue of the Confession Rehearsal arc has Natsuki wake up Yuu for school and try to coax an "I love you" out of him, given that she was the only one that fully admitted her feelings the whole story. Yuu sneaks one out when she doesn't expect it. The second movie closes out on a Double Date between Yuu/Natsuki and Kotaro/Hina, and Hina admitting to Kotaro that she knows he loves her, congratulating him on his soccer position. This is more or less where their more romantic interactions begin. | |

Advertised Extra: Koyuki ends up being this to some extent. In most merchandise he's seen with the six core characters since he's friends with them, but he really has minimal bearing on the plot besides his already resolved feelings for Natsuki and his being crushed on by Hina. Especially in the latter's case, as he's supposed to be part of the series Love Triangle yet has little to no say in it (because he doesn't even know he's in one). | |

Love Confession | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_4e4f42be | comment |
Love Confession: It's the name of the series, after all. So far, there have been five of them, and only two were successful— Sota gives one to Akari in "A Solution for Jealousy" but was turned down; Ken gives one to Arisa in "Mean Encounter", but she brushes him off initially and may have worked if not for overhearing the wrong statements at the wrong time; and Hina blurts out one to Koyuki during "Right Now, I'll Fall in Love" but was mistaken. Only the Enomoto -> Setoguchi confessions so far come out unscathed; Natsuki gives hers to Yuu in "Confession Rehearsal", he reciprocates because he's been crushing on her for a while as well, and they begin dating immediately, while Kotaro finally gives his to Hina while he comforts her in "It Was Supposed to be Hate", which was the trigger for Hina to truly fall for him. | |

Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early Installment Weirdness: In the first couple of videos for "First Love Picture Book", Miou is drawn to resemble Gumi a lot more, and even had green hair in a colored picture. This is before the universe and song list got expanded, so this is understandable. In addition, "First Love's Picture Book" and "Confession Rehearsal" didn't have any of the main six interact with each other and kept the videos self-contained, which is especially strange considering how important their friendship was. This is Retconned in later installments of the franchise, which have the characters interact more during their respective arcs (especially in Haruki and Mio's case, since their arc takes place throughout all of high school). | |

Red String of Fate: One version of the stills from "Ima Suki ni Naru." shows Hina and Kotarou connected by one; Hina has it wrapped around her waist, while it squeezes and binds Kotarou's heart. The song "The Red Thread on Flowers" evokes the motif. Hiyori, Yujiro, and Aizo are connected through this in "Nonfantasy". Hiyori holds both their strings in her grasp. | |

Pragmatic Adaptation | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_603f1a80 | comment |
Pragmatic Adaptation: The whole point of all the extended media is to re-contextualize everything into the same year, and the animated versions move the events of the music videos around a lot, placing certain videos along different moments in the timeline and trying to combine them into a coherent narrative.note "Embarrassment Hiding Adolescence's" finale happened in the middle of "Right Now, I'll fall in Love" instead of right at the end, for example, and Ken meets Arisa much later than he does in "Mean Encounter". "Confession Rehearsal" also took place over two days in the song and comic as opposed to the whole year in everything else. | |

Lonely Piano Piece: "Right Now, I'm in Love -triangle story-" stands out as one, especially the instrumental version. It's also the only Perspective Flip song that even gets this treatment. | |

Sequel Hook | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_6293c185 | comment |
Sequel Hook: The "Confession Rehearsal" comic ends with Souta and Akari peeping in on Haruki confessing to Natsuki, unbeknownst to their respective love interests. The events of this confession would be covered later in the second vomic, the one for "A Solution for Jealousy". | |

From the looks of it, "Tokyo Winter Session" is one to "Tokyo Summer Session". | |

Cannot Spit It Out | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_653c5c73 | comment |
Cannot Spit It Out: Both Miou and Haruki, towards each other. They spend a lot of time together, talking about pointless stuff, but can't bring themselves to deal with direct confessions. In "First Love Picture Book", Miou sings about how she's too cowardly to confess to her crush, Haruki, and now that they've both graduated high school and parted ways, she wonders what could have happened if she did confess. "Goodbye, Our Mutual Unrequited Love" reveals that Haruki actually likes Miou back, but was likewise too scared to confess to her. After graduation, he moved away to another country, and one of his biggest regrets was being unable to say "I love you" to Mio. Still, he hopes that they'll meet again someday, and then he'll confess. They tried to sort-of confess in one of the vomics, and failed. In the video, the two were walking home together, and Miou asked Haruki if he has someone he likes, and he answered yes. He asked her the same thing, and she also answered yes. Then they both parted ways thinking the other is in love with someone else, even though they're clearly talking about each other. In "Tokyo Summer Session", the two went to watch fireworks together, and was looking to hold each other's hands. But since they're too shy to do so, Haruki instead hides his hands in his pockets, while Miou hides hers behind her back. They eventually settled with Miou tugging at Haruki's sleeves though. | |

Meaningful Echo: "Goodbye, Our Mutual Unrequited Love" has Haruki and Miou part ways by finally holding hands and letting them drift apart. The first thing Haruki does when he runs into Miou again in "Ippun Ichibyou Kimi to Boku no" is hold out his hand for them to join again. In the beginning of the music video for "Senpai.", Hina is shown in an Imagine Spot confessing to Koyuki by whispering in his ear. Kotaro does the same thing in the real world to Hina when he finally gives his confession in "It Was Supposed to be Hate." | |

No Loves Intersect: All of the third years have their own designated pairing (with one exception for a while, at least), and the songs make sure to keep them that way with minimal interference. The first years have a little more trouble given Kotarou and Hina's situation, but even there the pairings are pretty definite. Generally averted in the rest of the series, as the expanded plots complicate their romances. | |

Arc Words: "10 centimeters" for Miou and Haruki's arc. It references the fact that they're always so close from telling each other how they feel but are too shy to actually say it, and also because their hands are literally centimeters away from touching each other's when they sit next to each other. Even the anime that adapts their arc references the phrase. | |

Tsundere: Hina with Kotaro. At first, she actually did hate how straightforward he was with her and was often stubborn with him, but over time, and especially during their second year of high school, she starts to admire those traits instead and masks it under indifference and more stubbornness. Arisa with Ken as well. She acts aloof with him whenever he tries to flirt with her, but whenever he acts genuine or when he's being kind, she likes him but keeps it to herself. When she thinks Ken is trying to flirt again, she's genuinely heartbroken. | |

Establishing Character Moment: The opening sequence set to "Blooming Into the Color of Love" does this for the three main couples and Koyuki. Yuujirou and Aizou show their true colors immediately after they have their first proper scene in the "Romeo" vomic. In the PV, they show that they're not at all fond of each other behind the curtains, but the vomic shows that Yuujirou gets into trouble, can put on a more friendly face when talking to women, but still gets touchy and rude when someone tries to figure out what's wrong with him; while Aizou tries to pick a fight with Yuujirou under his breath after his friendlier introduction and immediately switches to coarse language. | |

Perspective Flip: Several songs in the series have -another story- versions, which retell the events of those particular songs from another character's point-of-view. Usually, the response singer is the main singer's love interest, which makes "Right Now, I'll Fall in Love" a sort of Foregone Conclusion for Hina's endgame since it's not Koyuki, but Kotarou who gets the response song. | |

Double Subverted in "Right Now, I'll Fall in Love"; Hina writes a love letter and is about to confess to Koyuki, but as this happens during "Confession Rehearsal" and "Confession Rival Declaration", she hides it behind her back since she sees Koyuki's not in any mood to listen to a love confession. But when she sees how upset Koyuki is, she accidentally blurts out a confession anyway, which Koyuki misinterprets as comforting him. Hina never lets him think otherwise. | |

Anachronic Order: The songs generally do not follow a strict chronology. For instance, "First Love Picture Book"(the first song in the series) reveals that Miou and Haruki do not get together in high school, while several later songs explore their Cannot Spit It Out dynamic. There are also a couple of later songs which revist Natsuki's confession to Yuu at the end of "Confession Rehearsal" from other characters' perspectives (specifically Koyuki's in "Confession Rival Declaration" and Hina's in "Right Now, I'll Fall in Love"). | |

Art Shift: Every so often, one of the PVs is done by a HoneyWorks member that's not Yamako. Sometimes it will look rough, semi-realistic, and colored with muddy tones and values (Rocoru), and other times it will look pastel with minimal shading (Mogelatte). The changes also usually have to do with the tone of the story being told. | |

Betty and Veronica: For Hina's Archie, we have the ever present, Patient Childhood Love Interest Kotarou as her Betty, and the Bishounen, popular yet shy, and unobtainable Koyuki as her Veronica. The store advertisements for HoneyWorks's third album even tease this, given that this series' pairings become mascots for HoneyWorks albums after release: Animate's has Hina and Koyuki stand together, while for Tower Records Kotarou and Hina are the mascots instead. | |

Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_97df2d12 | comment |
Social Circle Filler: During the "The Moment You Fall in Love" arc, Hina's given a girl friend to talk to named Kako Kogane. We don't see her in the music videos, so it's likely she was crafted whole cloth to prevent Hina from interacting solely with the rest of the main cast. She has more of a speaking role in the light novels, but in the second movie she barely speaks at all. | |

Production Throwback | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_985f0a0f | comment |
Production Throwback: Elements from HoneyWorks' other creations often make their way to this series' videos. At one point, the song "Rockbell" was used as a BGM in the vomic. Amaterasu from "The Currently Slightly-Rumored God" briefly appears in "Confession Rival Declaration" to reject Koyuki's prayer for success in his pursuit of love, while her acquaintances in Heaven cheer Koyuki on in his pursuit. Related to the above, Ameterasu's Love Interest, Joe from "Yoshino, Running Away From Home" was included as one of the prop students in "A Teacher, Detained". Miou sketches a picture of the main cast of "Dawn Moonlit Night's" PV in "Goodbye, Our Mutual Unrequited Love". In "Right Now, I'll Fall in Love", The trio from "The World is Falling in Love" and "Love Chord" appear in the background while Hina's running in the hallway. The couple from "Ai no Scenario" and the two friends from "A Promise That Doesn't Need Words" show up on the train in "The Day When I Called Your Name". The short haired girl from "The World is Falling in Love"/"Love Chord" sits next to Souta on his commute. | |

Not So Different: At first glance, the relationship between Miou and Haruki seems like a classic example of Opposites Attract (she's a quiet Shrinking Violet, he's hot-headed and outspoken), but their profiles describe both of them as kind-hearted and sensitive individuals who can't be honest with their feelings for each other, showing that the two are actually quite similar. | |

For Mona, "My Idol Declaration" serves as her small peek into her world, following her through two of her live performances and how she handles herself for them. | |

Foreshadowing: Akechi's little speech about spending your youth in regret to Souta makes a lot of sense considering that he watched his best friend die young and distanced himself from Haruki because of it. In the digital comic, they play a piano version of "Detained Teacher" over the scene, the very same song that briefly overviews that plot point. | |

Gag Dub: The confession scene in the "Confession Rehearsal" vomic was intentionally made for this; they posted the sequence on their Niconico in the hopes that the internet would dub over it any way they like (and they did). As an example, there's one done by Gom, who plays both Natsuki and Yuu, and gives the former a chipmunk's squeaky voice and the latter a creepy vibe. | |

Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_a4c37cbe | comment |
Mood Whiplash: "Senpai." starts out as a cute story about Hina and her crush on Koyuki throughout his high school years and her hopes for when they become a couple. Midway, it then turns into a bittersweet story about how she couldn't tell him how she truly felt before he graduated, how she loved him all the way through the day he left, and how she wished that they could have spent more time together. You can tell that they were going for this since they only play the first verse in The Moment You Fall in Love. | |

Retcon: Both of the "Confession Rehearsal" comics (the vomic and Volume Zero) set the events of that song during the core six's second year of school, going by their class label being 2-3 in one scene. Everything released afterwards rescinds that and places most of the events of the stories in their third year of school, going by Koyuki's Important Haircut, Hina and Kotaro being upgraded to first year high schoolers, and the "A Solution for Jealousy" vomic having Natsuki admit she hasn't told Yuu her feelings by that point. | |

Love Triangle | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_b7e0c5ff | comment |
Love Triangle: Three of them, involving one of the same people even: Natsuki falls in love with Yuu, but Koyuki is in love with her as well. Finally settles itself out when Natsuki rejects Koyuki's feelings and confesses to Yuu, who reciprocates. It gets expanded upon in the first novel, where Koyuki plays a more aggressive role in winning over Natsuki and butts heads with Yuu. Hina is in love with Koyuki, but her childhood friend Kotaro is in love with her as well. "Senpai." reveals that even after she (sort of) confesses to him in "Right Now, I'll Fall in Love", she keeps her feelings to herself and does not get with Koyuki. Instead, "It Was Supposed to be Hate." sets up Kotaro and Hina together, as she starts to feel less than friendly feelings for the boy the year after Koyuki graduates. "Romeo" sets up one with Yuujirou and Aizou as the two competitors for the third's heart. The comic and arc make it so that Hiyori's set up to be the third angle, and the song proper has a fictional one between two princes of opposing kingdoms and a princess (played by Sena) as part of their music video's plot. | |

Reminder, this all in Haruki's detention session. | |

Threesome Subtext | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_c9367f60 | comment |
Threesome Subtext: Littered all over the place with Hiyori and the LIP×LIP boys. She has a subtle nod to it in eating both boys' pocky flavors instead of choosing just one, and she dreams of being the girl in their "Nonfantasy" video, where they both pursue her and even marry her together. And the kiss at the end of the video looks like they're about to kiss each other as much as it looks like they're going to kiss Hiyori. | |

Cleaning Up Romantic Loose Ends: Koyuki is this incarnate. In his love triangle with Hina, he mistakes her confession for pity and pushes Kotaro towards the girl, ultimately leading to the latter two falling in love. With Natsuki and Yu he leaves them be, happy yet heartbroken. So where does that leave him by the end of the story? Tokyo Winter Session solves this by introducing his third love interest. | |

Mistaken for Romance | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_cc8109ab | comment |
Mistaken for Romance: Causes problems in three different volumes of the light novel. Haruki and Natsuki generally act pretty close since they're childhood friends, but because she's practicing for her real confession to Yuu and simply never told the latter boy who it was for, Yuu starts to believe that Haruki was the one she liked. Their closeness also causes a Third-Act Misunderstanding in A Solution for Jealousy and First Love's Picture Book, given that Haruki does his own practice confession with Natsuki and Akari and Souta come in at just the wrong time to hear it. Now Akari becomes upset because she thinks Haruki doesn't like Miou, and Miou's upset because she thinks her crush doesn't like her back. This relationship faux pas also causes Souta to believe that Akari has a crush on Haruki as well, given her upset reaction at seeing him "confess" to Natsuki. | |

Aborted Declaration of Love | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_d2096ad9 | comment |
Aborted Declaration of Love: Confession Rehearsal opens with Natsuki confessing her feelings for Yuu. Suddenly embarrassed, she immediately passes it off as a joke, saying that the Love Confession was just a rehearsal for someone else. Double Subverted in "Right Now, I'll Fall in Love"; Hina writes a love letter and is about to confess to Koyuki, but as this happens during "Confession Rehearsal" and "Confession Rival Declaration", she hides it behind her back since she sees Koyuki's not in any mood to listen to a love confession. But when she sees how upset Koyuki is, she accidentally blurts out a confession anyway, which Koyuki misinterprets as comforting him. Hina never lets him think otherwise. At the end of "The Day When I Called Your Name", Souta falls asleep before he can confess to Akari again over the phone, with his message still ready and typed up on the screen. It's not clear if he stopped himself or he actually just drifted off, though. | |

Hair Color Dissonance | |

Hair Color Dissonance: Yuu supposedly has brown hair, but many illustrations adds some red/purple highlights, presumably to keep it from looking too similar to Natsuki and Souta's hair colours. Akari's hair has purple tones, although in-universe it's probably supposed to represent dark brown/black hair. | |

Rotating Arcs: For the most part, all of the third years' songs get precedence, then the first years get focus, and it takes a bit of time before they focus on the first years again. After adding Hiyori and LIP×LIP, that's one more group to cycle through. | |

Everyone Can See It: Because of their closeness, pretty much everyone not in the focus group of 14 thinks that Haruki and Miou are already dating, or at least preparing to. Kotaro's crush on Hina is well known to everyone in his friendship circle, and when Hina starts developing feelings for him, everyone notices that just as easily. | |

Art Evolution: The series' music videos were somewhat sketchy and monochromatic in the beginning.

Compare one of Hatsukoi no Ehon◊'s scenes to its novelization's art◊, for example. | |

Early-Bird Cameo: Before Hina shows up in "Embarrassment-hiding Adolescence", she gets her own profile along with the original six in Confession Rehearsal ZERO. Koyuki shows up in "Diagnosis: Lovesickness" and "Embarrassment-Hiding Adolescence" before his song proper. LIP×LIP has plenty of moments before they're properly introduced. Hiyori and Yuujirou appear at the tail end of "Blooming into the Color of Love" before their feature in "Romeo" and its corresponding vomic. Yuujirou also appears (with Aizou this time) during one of Sena's photo shoots in "Sunday's Secret", and "Romeo" blares through a fast food joint (with corresponding advertisements) during the second movie. A Cute Glasses Girl seems to be wary of the LIP×LIP boys in the "Romeo" vomic, but she gets no further elaboration until later. | |

Product Placement: I've Always Liked You's animation has Natsuki and Hina play LittleBigPlanet 3 together. The PS3 is also shown without problems. This goes double for the PVs, but lots of real life HoneyWorks merchandise appears throughout the series. One scene even has a "CHiCO with HoneyWorks" CD placed in the foreground. The second movie has the Setoguchi and Enomoto siblings go see The Anthem of the Heart together. | |

Romantic False Lead | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_faa71569 | comment |
Romantic False Lead: Even though most media stressed the importance of Hina's crush on Koyuki, and even though they were often found side by side when they were first introduced, it quickly becomes apparent that Hina's endgame is Kotarou. He's the one that gets the response song to "Right Now, I'll Fall in Love" and has the most emotional development concerning his feelings for Hina, while Koyuki never seems to notice Hina's crush and didn't have a song of his own to describe how their relationship was. In the end, though Hina still has a place for Koyuki in her heart, she slowly starts developing feelings for Kotaro after Koyuki leaves. | |

Will They or Won't They? | |
Confession Executive Committee ~Love Series~ (Music) / int_fdc1e848 | comment |
Will They or Won't They?: Haruki and Miou for the entire series. They obviously love each other a lot, but their insecurities keep them from confessing to each other. In "Ippun Ichibyou Kimi to Boku no", Haruki comes back from America and encounters Miou again as grownups. He says that he'll be able to stay in Japan over the summer, leaving them wiggle room to finally confess their feelings to one another, but their relationship from the encounter on is left up in the open. "Re:First Love's Picture Book" reveals that yes, They Do eventually. | |
