Dusk Maiden of Amnesia: Difference between revisions

{{quote|''I don't mind UFO's and ghost stories, it's just that I tend to give value to the storyteller rather than to the story itself. ''|'''Robert Stack'''}}

 

 

Kanoe Yuuko has been a ghost in the [[Old School Building]] for a long time without being able to make contact with the living, until first-year junior high student Niiya Teiichi came along. Now they try to solve the mysterious circumstances under which Yuuko died, hindered by the fact there are at least ''seven'' different ghost stories about the school, some of which are possibly based on distorted accounts of her death.

 

 

{{tropelist}}

* [[Adaptation Decay]] / [[Adaptation Distillation]]: Some of the manga chapters have not been included as episodes, and one character, the school nurse, Takamatsu-san, has been written our of two stories entirely.

* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: Yuuko and Kirie have normal black hair in the manga while the anime gives them relatively dark/muted purplish and green-bluish hair respectively.

* {{spoiler|[[Barrier Maiden]]: Supposedly Yuuko was Sacrificed for this purpose.}}

* [[Barbie Doll Anatomy]]: Played straight often, since we see Yuuko (and occasionally one of the other girls) at least partially nude every few chapters.

* [[Bleached Underpants]]: Explains the Fanservice. Also, two minor characters from the early chapters are from one of Maybe's hentai doujins.

* [[Boy Meets Ghoul]]

* [[Chick Magnet]]: Teiichi, who has three different women pining after him.

* [[Clap Your Hands If You Believe]]: To most people, ghosts are only visible if they already believe there's going to be something there, and then they usually see some ghastly specter in line with their fears rather than the real ghost. {{spoiler|Also applies to those who can see a ghost already, as their perception of the ghost can be changed by making them believe the ghost truly looks different.}}

* [[Enemy Without]]: {{spoiler|The shadow Yuuko, most likely.}}

* [[Evolving Credits]]: At the end of Episode 7, as the closing song plays, Yuuko {{spoiler|is no longer visible performing the song.}}

* [[Fan Service]]: Yuuko, my god. And it's surprising, seeing as there are few to no panty-flashes, the fanservice often being done with Yuuko fully dressed.

** [[Fan Disservice]]: {{spoiler|As mentioned below, Corpse-Yuuko. Still in a towel.}}

* [[Uncanny Family Resemblance]]: Kirie is Yuuko's grandniece. A resemblance, [http://www.mangareader.net/781-52395-12/tasogare-otome-x-amnesia/chapter-5.html particularly of the eyes], was hinted at as soon as Kirie showed up, but in chapter 20, she gets put into a long-haired [[Hime Cut]] wig ... and [http://www.mangareader.net/tasogare-otome-x-amnesia/20/13 the resemblance] just ''jumps'' right out—except for her [[Pettanko|figure]] (and the [[Catgirl]] ears). It's even noted by Kirie's grandmother, who is Yuuko's younger sister.

* [[Unresolved Sexual Tension]]: By Chapter 11, there's so much between Teiichi and Yuuko it's not even funny.

* [[The Wiki Rule]]: [http://tasogare-otome.wikia.com/ Located here].

* [[Wham! Episode]]: Episode 7 of the anime brings together a number of plot points that the anime had been skipping over ('curse' rock, shadow-Yuuko's identity, Yuuko's breakdown etc) in one wham-packed episode.

* [[Younger Than They Look]]: Teiichi is twelve years old.

* [[Zettai Ryouiki]]: When Yuuko puts on her stockings.
