Hanasaku Iroha/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.



  • Base Breaker:
    • Minko. People either love her, hate her, or think she'll grow on them over time.
    • The same goes for Sui. She's been on the receiving end of a large amount of hate, but some think she'll ultimately turn out to be a Jerk with a Heart of Gold.
    • Ohana deserves a mention too. She's either loved for her plucky personality or is considered annoying for the negative aspect of said personality.
  • Cute but Cacophonic: This troper likes the opening as a whole, but for some reason, finds the singing to be god-awful.
    • The second opening is far more listenable, though now this troper's a bit nostalgic for the first.
  • Die for Our Ship: Namiko (AKA: bookstore girl) has became this to most KoxOhana fans ever since her appearance in Episode 11.
  • Ensemble Darkhorse:
    • Pretty much everyone wants Kou to make a reappearance in the series for good reason.
    • The Heron who torments Ohana at the inn is pretty much loved by everyone.
  • Memetic Molester: Jiroumaru.
  • Memetic Sex God: Thanks to a bit of Rule 34 from /a/, the Heron.
  • The Scrappy:
    • Based on the first episode alone, some viewers cannot stand Sui or Satsuki.
    • Takako Kawajiri.
    • For some, Ohana is this.
    • Some people just hate Igarashi.
  • Squick: Jiroumaru's manuscript. It doesn't help that Ohana's reaction to finding out she was in it was not played for laughs.
  • The Woobie: Ohana. Ko can be considered this too.
