• Women have exceedingly weak ankles and constantly twist them, causing them to have to be carried on some guy’s back to the nurses office.
• No one has parents: they either died or are working in a foreign country and never come home to visit.
• Anyone going to the hospital for any reason dies; I’ve seen shows where someone has a broken leg and dies
• Colds are treated as deadly-serious (see above) and the person is made to lay in bed while they’re fed rice porridge and a towel is put on their forehead.  This towel is usually changed by the person that is in love with them.
• The person that takes the empty desk next to yours will eventually be your boyfriend/girlfriend.
• Breakfast is either a multi-dish meal consisting of miso, fish, etc; or you’re running around with a piece of toast dangling from your mouth
• All girls grab each other’s breasts while saying “ooh, you’ve gotten bigger! I’m so jealous!”
• There’s one guy in class that always has a database of every girl’s likes, blood-type, and measurements.
• Anytime you are bathing someone will walk in on you
• A can of coffee from a vending machine is a magical item that can help you meet people, make up with people, and make people feel better.
• School festivals only have three options for your class; haunted house, maid cafe, fortune telling booth.
• Your sister isn’t your sister and she’s in love with you
• All schools are haunted at night.
• Any girl walking alone will immediately be hit on by two or more guys who are quite forceful into getting her to go somewhere with them (this is always foiled by her male friend’s timely entrance)
• Playgrounds never have any children on them, just lovesick teenagers.
• Time slows down any time a girl takes her hair out of a pony tail.
• If you stop a girl from falling, your hand will invariably end up on her breast and reflexes will make you squeeze it twice.
• If you trip and fall on a girl, your face will always end up buried in her breasts.
