The Nicknamer: Kanaka has a habit of giving weird nicknames to people such as "Ayukong" for Ayuko and "Yanachou" for Yanase.Fanservice: Strangely enough, almost all fanservice is limited to Saki, indisputably the most masculine of the girls- probably because of her legs. Made even worse because she instigates most of these events and sets bizarre wagers on the outcomes. The Load: Kanaka fails spectacularly at pretty much every challenge she takes, usually to the detriment of her friends in team-oriented activities.
Her own mother told her she was too much of an idiot to do anything else.

Hurricane of Puns: Intentional or not, the opening is full of them from the similarities between the title and Apple's "i-" suffix, to "crab apples," to obscure allusions to a species of crab whose name ends in "-ura," to Steve Job's death by cancer. An interesting example of this trope in that the students don't seem to be aware that Misuzu is a teacher. Hot Teacher: Students are known to flirt with Misuzu, who dresses as a student, and looks young enough to be one. Hikikomori: Saki decides to become one for a brief period in episode 11. 
Genki Girl: Kanaka is very energetic and is always trying to find something to do. The opening itself contains several examples. Food Porn: Apparently the subject of the anime's opening song. Saki ignores her, and afterwards muses that had it been Ayuko, she would have been genuinely concerned. Faking the Dead: In a bid for attention, Kanaka attempts this on two separate occasions. The Ditz: Kanaka, to such a degree that even a teacher and her mother have called her an idiot. Deranged Animation: Both the opening and ending sequence, although more in the ending. Curtains Match the Windows: The three main girls: Saki (blonde hair and gold eyes), Kanaka (brown hair and eyes), and Ayuko (black hair and eyes). Cool Teacher: Matsuno, who challenges tardy students to a game of rock-paper-scissors, but lets them win. Umi's older sister is a fashion model who lounges around the house all day and steals her food. Ayuko's older sister is the artist for a modestly popular manga, but spends all of her time at home gushing over Ayuko's cuteness and even showing Ayuko's childhood pictures and movies to her friends like an Amazingly Embarrassing Parent. Kanaka is a terrible big sister to Souta, being extremely slovenly and abusing his generosity whenever it suits her, as well as setting a bad example of behavior in general. Ayuko is the leader, Kanaka is the fool, and Saki is the only sane woman. 
Butt-Monkey: Souta, who Kanaka and Ayuko trick into losing a game of "Jango" and buying them snacks.Book Ends: In the final episode, the girls spend the beginning of summer together doing what Ayuko had done alone at the end of summer.One gets the impression she tried to do something similar before becoming a teacher. Misuzu reacts rather strongly when asked how one goes about marrying into money.Berserk Button: Repeatedly ringing Saki's doorbell.Beach Episode: An interesting example in that it is also the final episode.Whether this is deliberate or mostly a result of her unfocused nature is anybody's guess.
