So don't be thinking "that time was fun", because you should be thinking "that time was also fun" ... Being able to find the fun that's happening right now, is the best way to enjoy the present.''|'''Alicia Florence'''}}

''ARIA'' is a manga and anime series set in the 24th century, depicting the adventures of several young women who live on Aqua, the planet formerly known as Mars before it was [[Terraform]]ed into a water-covered paradise. They serve as gondolier tour-guides -- or ''undines'' -- in the city of Neo Venezia, which is an exact copy of Earth's Venice, [[City of Canals|canals and all]].
Line 136 ⟶ 137:
* [[Sweet Dreams Fuel]]: So, so much :)
* [[Tall, Dark and Bishoujo]]: Akira.
* [[Tenement Clotheslines]]: In the DVD-only episode, Akari and Aria deliberately go looking for Tenement Clotheslines with clothing on them -- and find some.
* [[Theme Naming]]: Pretty much all the characters' names start with A; also a partial example of [[Theme Initials]]. It can get pretty confusing sometimes, especially when there are some characters with very similar sounding names. (Alice and Alicia break the [[One Steve Limit]], for example.)
** On a smaller scale, all three Himeya Company undines named have a Japanese-sounding given name (Aika, Akira, and Ayumi), a middle initial, and a non-Japanese family name.
