Fembot: GEARs piloted by women are crafted to indicate this fact.Expy: Shou Shinjirou = Yousuke Hanamura.Cutting Off the Branches: While all of the game's romances are pretty well developed within the main game, the sequel assumes that Kaori's route is what happened.Cooldown Hug: Given by Tristan to Kaori on her route, it acts as the point at which her romance is "locked in.".Tristan is blue and white, Shou is green, Kaori is red and Mayu is purple. Colour-Coded for Your Convenience: The main characters' GEARs.Christmas Episode: The main story takes place in the summer but the Kaori After Story centres around Tristin spending Christmas with Kaori and her family.However, this is likely just an editing issue. Canadian spelling of words is used inconsistently in-game. Canada, Eh?: PixelFade (the developer) is based out of Toronto.But Not Too Foreign: Nikki and the player character are half-Japanese/half-American.The Big Damn Kiss: Some of the romance paths have this, others are more understated.Beach Episode: Let's get real here, it wouldn't be a visual novel without one.Badass Biker: Both Tristan and Ivan count.This is lampshaded when Tristan and Kaori meet Amanda Lee as they note in puzzlement how much she sounds like Mei then shrug it off as a weird coincidence.Also the director himself, Dishu Khan, makes a parody cameo of himself. As Himself: While she also plays Mei, Amanda Lee makes a cameo as herself near the end of the game. Early on the characters discuss changing the name but never seem to get round to it and eventually just run with the code. This is initially just a school registration code after the team formed too fast to come up with a name before qualifiers.
