Line 14:
=== Tropes from Haikara-san ga tooru. ===
 
* [[Arranged Marriage]]: Shinobu and Benio. {{spoiler|In a subversion, it's because of a family tragedy (see [[Star -Crossed Lovers]]) rather than mere social and economic interests.}}
** [[Perfectly Arranged Marriage]]: When they get to know each other better.
* [[Asian Gal With White Guy]]: Genderflipped Shinobu (mixed ethnicity) and Larissa (Russian). {{spoiler|He still ends up with the full-blooded Japanese Benio.}} Also subverted since Shinobu, due to his [[Hair of Gold]] and [[Blue Eyes]], looks ''very'' Western.
Line 32:
* [[Fat Girl]]: Tsumeko
* [[Geisha]]: Kichiji. {{spoiler|Benio tries to become this to support herself and Shinobu's family, but fails. She then settles for becoming a [[Hot Scoop]].}}
* [[He -Man Woman Hater]]: Tousei. Uncommonly for the trope, he has a [[Freudian Excuse]]: {{spoiler|his [[Brainless Beauty]] of a mother all but abandoned him, thus he has serious issues towards women. Doesn't stop him from falling for Benio, though, since she's the only woman he truly trusts.}}
* [[Heroes Love Dogs]]: The Iijyuin family has two: Tenmaru and Chimaru
* [[Hot Chick With a Sword]]: Benio is a kendo student so she has a trusty kendo stick
Line 41:
* [[The Ladette]]: Benio takes pride on being one.
* [[Large Ham]]: Ranmaru can get pretty dramatic sometimes. [[Justified Trope]]: he's a ''kabuki'' performer, so he has acting training.
* {{spoiler|[[Long -Lost Relative]]: Shinobu and Larissa's dead husband, Sasha, were half-brothers: Sasha was born from the marriage between Shinobu's [[Missing Mom]] and a Russian count. Too bad he was a high-ranked officer of the Russian Army, and was killed trying to protect the Royal Family; this [[Break the Cutie|totally broke Larissa]], and then she found Shinobu without knowing he was her older brother-in-law...}}
* [[Masculine Girl, Feminine Boy]]: Benio and Shinobu to a degree. Benio and Ranmaru play it straighter, though.
* [[Meet Cute]]: First Shinobu sees Benio [[Drives Like Crazy|crash her bike]] and finds it funny, so Benio slaps him. Later, Shinobu finds Benio up a tree, then [[Crash Into Hello|catches her]] in a [[Bridal Carry]] when she falls off.
* [[Missing Mom]]: Shinobu, Benio ''and'' Ranmaru lost their mothers early in life.
Line 55:
* [[Single Woman Seeks Good Man]]: It's Shinobu's kindness that drives girls like Benio, Tamaki, Larissa and {{spoiler|Kichiji}} to him.
* [[Spoiled Sweet]]: Tamaki can be a little child-like sometimes, but she has a heart of gold.
* {{spoiler|[[Star -Crossed Lovers]]: Benio and Shinobu, after he goes MIA in Manchuria and loses his memories.}}
** Also, there are more cases in the backstory. First, {{spoiler|Shinobu's grandma wasn't allowed to marry Benio's grandpa for political differences: the Hanamuras supported the Shogunate, while the Iijyuins were pro Meiji Restoration. (The most they got was the promise of an [[Arranged Marriage]] between their descendants).}}. Later, {{spoiler|Shinobu's German mother couldn't stay with Shinobu's father for being a foreigner, and had to leave baby!Shinobu in the care of the Iijyuins.}}
* [[Teen Genius]]: Ranmaru is just 13/14 yeas old and he's not just an accomplished ''kabuki'' actor, but he trains people in acting
