CUTE×GUY/Characters: Difference between revisions

 

== Takaoka Sumi, aka "Tadano Jun" ==

The [[Mad Scientist|Mad Scientist's]] [[Generic Cuteness|Generically Cute]] [[Mad Scientist's Beautiful Daughter|Daughter]].

{{examples|Tropes exhibited by this character include:}}

* [[Hilariously Abusive Childhood|Hilariously]] [[Abusive Parents]]: Sumi's father is a [[Mad Scientist]] who apparently has no qualms using his only daughter as a guinea pig for an experimental "medicine" and ignores her demands of an antidote while simultaneously keeping her under ([[Surveillance as the Plot Demands|presumably constant]]) [[Sinister Surveillance|surveillance]]. Her mother is completely indifferent to Sumi's obvious distress at this state of affairs and instead, she takes advantage of the situation to dress [[Attractive Bent Gender|"Jun"]] up like a runway model. Both of them have referred to Sumi as their "son", despite her protests, {{spoiler|and it is revealed in the [[Ass Pull|finale]] that her mother has been secretly spiking her food with the [[Gender Bender]] drug.}}

* [[Smitten Teenage Girl]]: [[Downplayed]]. Sumi may not trail after Mitsuru with hearts in her eyes, but she's apparently besotted enough to consume a potion of dubious origins on the promise that it would make her attractive to him.

 

== Sudou Mitsuru ==

The [[Love Interest]].

{{examples|Tropes exhibited by this character include:}}

* [[Attractive Bent Gender]]: Mitsuru makes a ''very'' cute girl, but unlike every other character who qualifies for this trope, he is only [[Crossdresser|crossdressing]] as the opposite sex. {{spoiler|At least until the [[Ass Pull|finale]], when he takes the [[Gender Bender]] [[Applied Phlebotinum|drug]] to escape and transforms into an even more [[Moe]]-looking girl than he was in drag.}}

* [[Hidden Depths]]: Mitsuru is revealed to have an unexpected affection for [[Turtle Power|turtles]]. {{spoiler|In fact, when asked what he wanted most, he even knew enough about them to request a specific breed: the South American snake-necked turtle. Sumi was just fortunate that Dr. Nishizawa had one laying around for Shizuka to give her.}}

* [[I Didn't Mean to Turn You On]]: Mitsuru can't seem to say two words to [[Smitten Teenage Girl|Sumi]] without sending her running for the hills. [[Hilarity Ensues|And then Jun turns up.]] The fact that he hasn't noticed the pattern definitely speaks to his [[Genre Blindness|gullability]].

* [[I Want to Be a Real Man]]: Mitsuru has something of a complex about his [[Uke|androgynous]] appearance, which is what set the plot in motion. Mitsuru met "Jun", the [[Tall, Dark and Handsome]] [[Bishonen]], and asked to become his apprentice.

* [[They're Called "Personal Issues" for a Reason]]: Mitsuru has admitted that he doesn't understand why "Jun-san" is always in or around the school, but he believes that Jun will tell him eventually, when the time is right, and has respected his privacy. {{spoiler|At the same time, Volume 2 proved that Mitsuru would not tolerate being deliberately left in the dark and lied to, and by Volume 4, he has apparently decided to take matters into his own hands.}}

 

== Nishizawa Shizuka ==

A description of the character goes here.

{{examples|Tropes exhibited by this character include:}}

** [[First Law of Gender Bending]]: [[Averted]]. Like everyone else who took the drug, Shizuka only [[Gender Bender|transforms]] when he is exposed to his particular trigger, and he inevitably returns to his male form once the effect wears off. However, [[Fridge Brilliance|possibly because his transformation is difficult to trigger by accident]], Shizuka spends the least amount of time transformed.

** [[Second Law of Gender Bending]]: [[Averted]]. Shizuka starts out angry at his father for inflicting [[Gender Bender|this]] on him, and although he does not explicitly ''hate'' turning into a woman, {{spoiler|getting harassed by the girls at school for being 'perverted' after spilling the contents of his bag, which included a lacy bra, cannot have endeared it to him.}} However, he doesn't seem to mind using his female alter ego to help out [[Love Interest|Sumi]].

* [[Hilariously Abusive Childhood|Hilariously]] [[Abusive Parents]]: Shizuka's [[Backstory]] is virtually identical to Sumi's, complete with the [[Mad Scientist]] father and a mother who couldn't care less, but is less involved with the events of the story. His mother only receives a mention, though his father has a larger role as [[The Rival]] to Sumi's father, Dr. Takaoka.

* [[New Transfer Student]]: There is absolutely no explanation given as to how or why he transferred to their school, but he did.

* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Seafood in general. Shizuka even says as much in his introduction to the class. Unfortunately, because his "shitty old man" spiked his seafood spaghetti with an experimental [[Gender Bender|drug]] (sounding familiar yet?), he turns into a bombshell whenever he eats it. No digestion required. Apparently just putting it in his mouth is enough to trigger the transformation.

 

== Hozumi Masao ==

* [[Spell My Name with an "S"]]: Kyoko or Kyouko? (According to the romaji for "'''<big>京子</big>'''", Kyouko is correct.)

* [[The Vamp]]: Not only is she beloved by the school's male population (most of them anyway) but very nearly [[Double Standard Rape (Female on Male)|forces]] [[Double Standard Rape (Female on Female)|herself]] on Jun/male Sumi before she is wooed into submission by 'his' [[The Charmer|smooth-talking]].
