Line 13:
* [[Abusive Mom]]: Taichi's mother is a bit of an [[Education Mama]], for any competition.
* [[The Ace]]: Subverted in Taichi's case, as Kanade [[Brutal Honesty|quite harshly]] sums his up in one omake: "[[Jack of All Trades]], [[Master of None]]".
* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: In the anime Chihaya has [[Red Eyes, Take Warning|red eyes]], Arata [[Blue Eyes]] and Taichi [[Eyes of Gold]]. Not so much in the manga, where Chihaya's stated to have 'big, serious black eyes' and Arata has [[Gray Eyes]].
* [[Alliterative Family]]: Chihaya, her sister Chitose and their mother Chieko.
* [[Arrogant Kung Fu Guy|Arrogant Karuta Guy]]: Oh, Sudo.
Line 22:
* [[Book Ends]]: The first episode and the last episode of the first season has Chihaya pinning up notices for the karuta club.
* [[Breather Episode]]/[[Clip Show]]: Episode 16 is a mix of these. Coming hot off the episode where Chihaya just lost to "The Queen" and Taichi losing in the final round of B group, a comedic episode is due. These joke scenes take place in between clips from past episodes, which seem to serve solely as framing for when the scenes occur.
* [[Bratty Half -Pint]]: Young Taichi.
* [[Bratty Teenage Daughter]]: Chihaya's older sister and seemingly Taichi's younger sister in their respective teenage years. Chihaya's sister takes it [[Up to Eleven]].
* [[Bunny Ears Lawyer]]: The current Master and Queen, Suo and Shinobu respectively.
Line 51:
* [[Green-Eyed Monster]]: Taichi in regard to Arata.
* [[Hard Work Hardly Works]]: [[In Universe]] example. Taichi had this attitude for a while, even quitting karuta for a while because he felt that he wouldn't be able to catch up to Arata even if he kept it up his whole life. Harada-sensei told him that it's a waste to think like that if he never even tried. Ultimately [[Averted Trope|averted]] when it comes to any player who's at all good, even Arata and the Queen, who all achieved their levels of skill through determination, hard work and practice.
* [[Hot -Blooded]]: Chihaya is very dedicated to playing karuta and will make very sure that everyone around her knows it.
** So is Sudo, who manages to drive Chihaya to tears by bullying her 'lack of motivation' (ie. passing out during the match).
* [[In-Series Nickname]]: Most of the cast.
Line 66:
* [[Kawaiiko]]: Kanai Sakura, whom Chihaya is playing during her first A Class tournament, dresses and speaks in a manner of a teenager.
* [[Kick the Dog]]: The entire childhood of Taichi.
** [[The "B" Grade]]
* [[Kids Are Cruel]]
* [[Jerkass]]: Taichi and his mom, but the first one kinda leans to [[Jerk With a Heart of Gold]]. Sometimes.
Line 75:
* [[Love Triangle]]
* [[Megane]]: Arata and Tsutomu.
* [[A Minor Kidroduction]]: Played straight in the manga, which actually takes a few chapters to get through. The anime starts with Chihaya in high school and turns the childhood stories into a few [[Whole -Episode Flashback|whole episode flashbacks]] in order to make the [[Grand Finale]] come full circle.
* [[New Transfer Student]]
* [[The Nicknamer]]: Chihaya
Line 84:
* [[Oblivious to Love]]: Chihaya seems to be oblivious to Taichi's crush on her.
* [[Recap Episode]]: Episode 16 is mostly one, with a few other things.
* [[Red Eyes, Take Warning]]: Chihaya is a nicer variant.
* [[Rich Bitch]]: Taichi's mother, emphasis on ''bitch''.
* [[Rich Suitor, Poor Suitor]]: Taichi and Arata fit to a T during Chihaya's childhood.
* [[Serious Business]]: Traditional Japanese clothing is this for Kanade, to the point where she joins the club on the condition that they start wearing hakamas.
** She gets it from her mom.
Line 111:
** Kana-chan's arrangement of cards on her side of the field (by season instead of by sound) probably also confuses the heck out of her opponents, although it hasn't been mentioned as a competitive advantage.
* [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?]]
* [[Whole -Episode Flashback]]: The flashback started halfway through episode 1 and doesn't end until the start of episode 4.
** If the flashback is from when Chihaya is pinning up the notice about the karuta club at the start of episode 1, we don't return to that until the end of episode 5. Episodes 4 and 5 are backwards in time from that moment, even if they are (mostly) in the fairly recent past.
* [[X Meets Y]]: [[Cardfight Vanguard]] meets [[Bamboo Blade]].
