Futari Ecchi: Difference between revisions

* [[Hollywood Sex]]: [[Deconstructed Trope]]. ''Futari Ecchi'' is about two people who only know [[Hollywood Sex]] ([[Virginity Makes You Stupid|if that]]), and shows, realistically, what happens when they try to apply it.

* [[Horrible Judge of Character]]: Jun, Jun, Jun... [[Wide Eyed Idealist|in her search for true love]], she manages to [[spoiler:<br />'''a)''' have a one-night-stand with a man she practically just met (who -- [[Sarcasm Mode|shock!]] -- turns out to have a girlfriend), ''right after'' breaking up with her boyfriend because she feels their relationship has lost the spark,<br />'''b)''' become the (oblivious) fifth sex-friend of an obvious playboy (despite the warnings of her best friend, she is devastated upon seeing him enter a love hotel with another girl) and<br />'''c)''' pursue an affair with a homely middle-aged married man, this time '''mere hours''' after first talking to him. One can almost not blame her father for calling for a family conference about her behavior...]]

* [[Hurricane of Euphemisms]]: Since Yura is inexperienced with sex (and fairly innocent, to boot), her more experienced sister sometimes has to run the euphemism treadmill before she gets the idea.

* [[Idiot Hero]]: Makoto. (Actually, a lot of the male characters come across this way.)

* [[Names to Know In Anime]]: [[Yuji Ueda]] as Makoto, [[Tomoko Kawakami]] as Yura.

* [[No Indoor Voice]]: A [[Running Gag]] with Akira.

* [[Oblivious to Love]]: Makoto, as a flipside to his [[Chick Magnet|Chick Magnetism]].

* [[Oh Crap]]: A particularly good one is in the first episode of the OVA when Makoto walks in on Yura accidentally watching one of his videos, but both do get it in both anime and manga versions.

* [[Playboy Bunny]]: Book 30 of the manga put most of Makoto's female coworkers in this costume. Which gives ideas to Makoto, who brings home a bunny girl outfit for Yura.

* [[Porn With Plot]]: The ever-developing relationship between Yura and Makoto makes for a cohesive and entertaining plotline.

* [[Public Service Announcement]]: Though not government-sponsored, [[media:Futari_Ecchi_v01_002.jpg|this is the premise of the manga]]: a love manual that covers everything from the first time, fights and making up, to how love grows and new positions you can try. It comes complete with instructions (with cut-away diagrams!) and with statistics and surveys for reassurance.

* [[Purple Eyes]]: Yura. Also [[Green Eyes]]. Seems to [[Shrug of God|depend on the cover]].

* [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]]: {{spoiler|Miyuki}}

* [[Virginity Makes You Stupid]]: Both characters, though Yura at least has "[[My Girl Is Not a Slut]]" to justify it. (And even then, the attitudes of the characters around her suggest that, even if only among the eccentrics, it's becoming acceptable in Japan for women to be knowledgeable co-participants in bed.)
