Some printings of the English translation move the title up so that it obscures her chest. Bowdlerise: The cover art features Saki in the process of getting undressed, exposing her breasts, with the title along the bottom.The final moments of her life has the same pose, albeit this time realizing what she has become thanks to her appearance. Bookends: The first time we see Saki Yoshida, we see her stressing about her Friendless Background and her attempts to change it.Unfortunately, Hayato is actually not nice. Because You Were Nice to Me: Saki wants to Work Off the Debt from Hayato, because in her eyes, he's been so nice and supportive, especially after taking her in after her parents kicked her out of her house.Beautiful All Along: Saki's transition from plain nerdy type to attractive involves little else besides her styling her hair better and wearing makeup. Ambiguous Ending: Did Saki die at the end, with the scene of her as a mother in the future being a near-death hallucination (as comments by the author seem to suggest)? Or did she really survive, after all, clean up her life, and become a mother for real?. Not even her own parents for that matter, with her father raping her and her mother proving to be easily gullible and manipulated into disowning her daughter without any second thoughts or regrets. None of the adults in Saki's life even try to help her get out of her eventual addiction, with all of them only having their own selfish interests or desires in mind, many even enabling her worsening drug habits and sex addiction. By extension, Saki's mother qualifies as well, given that she disowned, kicked out, and abandoned her daughter without a second thought, despite there being evidence that Saki's father had raped her and that it wasn't consensual.
