  • There are some mild indications throughout the series that a female character is attractive and many boys gossiping about her looks in different dresses, etc.
  • A male character slips his hand into the side of a female character's bathing suit. This is done with innocent intent, as he's trying trying to return a padded piece of material she had placed into her bathing suit to increase the size of her breasts.

Then, the female character is naked but it only shows most of her back and clothes cover her parts. These characters in the dream are all classmates. Then the dream ends.
  • A guy walks in after a shower and is completely naked, but is holding a towel over his crotch so you can't see anything too bad.

You don't see anything after he drops his towel but the girl exclaims "I just saw something black and bushy."

  • The main female protagonist, Taiga Aisaka punches the main male protagonist, Ryuuji Takasu in the face after first meeting him due to being in a bad mood and hearing him say her nickname that she hates.

At the beginning of the fight, both girls use weapons, Taiga uses a wooden Japanese sword called a bokken and Sumire uses another type of sword. However, neither girl uses the swords to harm each other due to Sumire knocking Taiga's bokken out of her hands which causes Taiga to retaliate by punching her face, causing Sumire to drop her sword. As in most fights, the girls are trying to and even manage to physically harm each other, such as kicking and punching. Despite all this, the fight is very short and is stopped. At the end, both Taiga and Sumire have minor injuries, such as some bruising and a nosebleed. Taiga is suspended for two weeks as punishment because of the fight.
  • Taiga occasionally hits Ryuuji and such, but this is not serious, and is used as slapstick comedy.
