Bad Qualities

 * 1) On Episode 35, When Runa is transformed to a Love Zero, She starts acting like a self-righteous person who is screaming a lot whilst saying her lines.
 * 2) Lovepyoco's voice can be irritating at some episodes due to her having an excitable personality.
 * 3) Their voices in the English dub of Tomica Kizuna Gattai Earth Granner are painfully abysmal to listen to as the voices don't match the Japanese original at all.
